[12:02] <vox754> ikonia, can you both at least give me some details?
[12:02] <loppa> ikonia, this screens got a widescreen consept, so things look a bit funny in regular resolutions.
[12:03] <ikonia> vox754: he's got a crappy card, with poor compatiably with the via drivers, so he was advised to stick with vesa

[12:05] <vox754> ikonia, you can visit me at #vocx
[12:05] <Hia> following the readme, should I put all the file in that .tar to /usr/lib/codecs ?
[12:05] <mandrill> ikonia: so it is, sorry to have bothered you :) thanks.
[12:06] <ikonia> mandrill: not a problem

[12:07] <Dr_willis> vinboy,  used them under XP.. but never linux.. they are decent webcams under windows.. once ya find the drivers.. heh
[12:07] <loppa> vox754, the card is a VIA UniChrome Pro VN800
[12:07] <ompaul> xenoborg,  /msg ubotu resolution would have made it a private chat between you and the bot and the other makes it a message between the bot and the person - cuts out noise in the channel :)_

[12:17] <turbolover> dapper drake
[12:18] <ikonia> turbolover: have you logged a bug against it
[12:18] <ikonia> updates shouldn't break stuff
[12:18] <ikonia> i guess a kernel update could have broke the ati driver if you're using 3rd party
[12:18] <Jstuts5797> Hello everybody...new here, and new to linux.
[12:18] <akao> first time i loaded up ubuntu on my laptop it downloaded an update using the wireless card that rendered the wireless card useless
[12:18] <turbolover> well al i know is it was working finde then after an update my computer is hella slow and some ati process goes nuts and fglrxinfo now reads mesa even though the install is supposedly fine and my xorg.conf is correct
[12:19] <ikonia> turbolover: log a bug
[12:19] <xenoborg> name: try cat /dev/dsp > file
[12:19] <turbolover> im not sure which update did it
[12:19] <name> i want mp3 ^^

[12:20] <ikonia> !mp3 >name
[12:20] <name> pipe to lame?
[12:20] <name> ikonia: dammit thats not what it's about!
[12:20] <ikonia> name then ask a question properly rather than "I want mp3"
[12:20] <name> 0019 <  xenoborg> name: try cat /dev/dsp > file
[12:21] <name> it was a reponse to that
[12:21] <Jstuts5797> I'm having problems booting the Ubuntu 6.06 Live CD on a older computer......

[12:21] <binzer> hi i giot a problem with my wlan interface on my notebook running edgy. It worked completly after the installation but now I turned Wlan off bei FN key an rebooted the notebook and try to turn it back on with no luck. Any Idea to solve this problem?
[12:21] <Ironman273> If there is instructions to install something in x server would it work for Ubuntu also?
[12:21] <Jstuts5797> where can I find a listing of the hardware requirments?
[12:21] <ikonia> Ironman273: depends
[12:21] <ikonia> Jstuts5797: think its on ubuntu.com
[12:21] <Jstuts5797> hmmm
[12:22] <brohken> hello can someone point me in the right direction of how to install Beryl on Ubuntu with a nvidia 7600gt
[12:22] <Jstuts5797> I"ve been looking there...haven't ran into them yet.
[12:22] <Ironman273> ikonia: specifically instructions to get an INtellimouse Explorer working in Firefox
[12:22] <ikonia> Ironman273: didn't you'd have to install anything for that
[12:22] <turbolover> okay, open source driver or ati's fglrx?
[12:22] <ikonia> ati's
[12:23] <ikonia> but both suck
[12:23] <Ironman273> ikonia: I mean to get all buttons working, including the back and forward buttons
[12:23] <xenoborg> name: mpegrec might work for you
[12:23] <brohken> do i need to install some type of driver for the video card before I install beryl?
[12:23] <Ironman273> ikonia: the instructions are here: http://dotnet.org.za/matt/pages/39097.aspx
[12:23] <ikonia> brohken: depends on your video card
[12:23] <brohken> how would I know?
[12:23] <akao> hey guys, anyone know how to set keyboard bindings?  I've got a tablet pc and there are two buttons on the screen that i'd like to act like the up and down arrows.
[12:24] <ikonia> brohken: whats your video card
[12:24] <brohken> XFX nVidia 7600gt
[12:24] <cjones> what command do you use to get a list of all the channels ?
[12:24] <ikonia> you'll need the nvidia drivers
[12:24] <ikonia> cjones: /list
[12:24] <brohken> is installing them difficult. im a complete linux novice
[12:24] <xenoborg> akao: that's a job for your .Xmodmap
[12:24] <cjones> ikonia thank you
[12:24] <ikonia> !nvidia>brohken
[12:24] <Jstuts5797> Ok...
[12:25] <akao> how do i go about running that xeno? from terminal?
[12:25] <Jstuts5797> another question... this one might be a bit more tricky...
[12:25] <name> xenoborg: whats that?
[12:25] <name> ah ok
[12:25] <cjones> ikonia how do you dis-join a channel
[12:25] <Jstuts5797> my main computer(the one I'm using now) is running winXP sp2.....
[12:25] <lisapc> what does Decentralised tracking mean?
[12:25] <ikonia> cjones: /leave
[12:25] <brohken> and once i do this i can install beryl? how?
[12:25] <cjones> ikonia thanks again
[12:25] <name> mpegrec on Linux is slightly dated and may require porting to newer kernels.
[12:25] <vox754> ikonia, having a hard time? Keep 'em happy.
[12:25] <ikonia> !beryl >brohken
[12:26] <Jstuts5797> I have 2 hard drives.... one for windows and various files and stuff... the other is mostly just mp3's and random files...
[12:26] <ikonia> vox754: nah, its all fine
[12:26] <Alonea> does anyone know why my computer seems to randomly just slow down, and then completely lock up? Almost as if there was a memory leak or something.
[12:26] <Jstuts5797> can I add a third HD, install ubuntu on it and have a dual boot situation with XP on one hd and ubuntu on the other?
[12:26] <ikonia> Jstuts5797: yes
[12:26] <eobanb> absolutely.
[12:27] <Jstuts5797> wow ok...
[12:27] <Jstuts5797> now this would be completely new and uncharted territory for me... what kind of difficulty am I looking at?
[12:27] <Dr_willis> Jstuts5797,  of course... :)
[12:27] <ikonia> Jstuts5797: 2 out of 10
[12:27] <Dr_willis> Jstuts5797,  i got 7 hd's :)
[12:27] <Jstuts5797> oh wow
[12:27] <Jstuts5797> ok
[12:27] <Dr_willis> i thinkingusing a 2nd hd makes it easier.
[12:28] <gaspipe1> hey people
[12:28] <name> cat /dev/dsp | lame - demo.mp3 produces noise
[12:28] <gaspipe1> quick q for serpentine
[12:28] <akao> hi gas
[12:28] <xu> does anyone have problems with their VLC?
[12:28] <Jstuts5797> ok so once I get the 3rd hard drive in(the one I want ubuntu to install on) how can I actually use the live boot cd to install ubuntu on THAT hard drive and not my default C drive?
[12:28] <ikonia> xu:  no
[12:28] <gaspipe1> if i have a cd of mp3's on my hdd and wish to burn it to a blank
[12:28] <ikonia> Jstuts5797: corrext
[12:28] <ikonia> correct
[12:28] <gaspipe1> akao: hey
[12:29] <brohken> ikonia, I have a maybe stupid question. my friend said he has the same card as I do. except it's a 6800xt. he told me that he didn't install drivers at all and it worked in edgy
[12:29] <brohken> does that make sense?
[12:29] <shoumik> hey i'm having some trouble with my brand new iPod shuffle. I plugged it in through mu USB port and floola isn't recognizing it. What could i do?
[12:29] <ikonia> brohken: he's wrong
[12:29] <gaspipe1> i loaded the filelist.... does serp burn it as a cd (for stereo) or does it save (burn) as an mp3?
[12:29] <bulmer> Jstuts5797: select thethird drive
[12:29] <Jstuts5797> Is there a guide somewhere online that can kind of take me through the process of getting ubuntu installed on the 3rd hard drive?
[12:29] <ikonia> !dualboot >jstuts5797
[12:30] <Jstuts5797> sweet... thank you
[12:30] <GenNMX> Dammit, now my system is freezing during the fsck process
[12:30] <MybEvil_> Can someone give me an example of what a .sh file would look like to compile *.java?
[12:30] <bulmer> Jstuts5797: select thethird drive
[12:30] <shoumik> hey i'm having some trouble with my brand new iPod shuffle. I plugged it in through mu USB port and floola isn't recognizing it. What could i do?
[12:30] <ikonia> MybEvil_: #!/bin/bash javac$file.java
[12:30] <ikonia> MybEvil_: that should be javac $file.java
[12:31] <gaspipe1> guess it's time for a cd-coaster
[12:31] <gaspipe1> grin
[12:31] <Section32> Hey all
[12:31] <GenNMX> How do I make init skip fsck? It's always given me problems.
[12:31] <Section32> Whats the name of that CPU monitor app that goes in the taskbar?
[12:31] <shoumik> hey i'm having some trouble with my brand new iPod shuffle. I plugged it in through mu USB port and floola isn't recognizing it. What could i do?
[12:31] <Section32> I had to reinstall and forgot what its name is.
[12:32] <ikonia> GenNMX: if its trying to fsck - its because you need it
[12:32] <brohken> ikonia, he confirmed that he just plugged the card in and it worked without him installing any drivers. said he just followed this guide out of the box: http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install/Ubuntu/Edgy/nVIDIA
[12:32] <Regner> does any one know a good tutorial/walkthrough for setting up samba ? I am having hard time with the security part of it on ym file server, right now any one can do anything on the samba shares
[12:32] <ikonia> brohken: that tells you to install the nvidia drivers
[12:32] <GenNMX> ikonia: It says "var clean" and just stops there.
[12:32] <brohken> ikonia, does that install the drivers and beryl too? can i just follow that?
[12:33] <ikonia> brohken: I wouldn't follow that guide - but its up to you. Look at 2.2.2. "installing the new nvidia driver" your friend talks rubbish
[12:33] <navazuelo_> w3
[12:33] <Jstuts5797> ok...going to try this out...
[12:33] <Jstuts5797> I should be back in a bit
[12:33] <ubuntu_> hello, was wondering if anyone knows how to mount hda1 in read/write off the live cd (hoary hedgehog), mount -t ntfs -o rw /dev/hda1 /mnt does not allow me to delete files off my disk
[12:33] <ikonia> ubuntu_: cd is read only drivers by default
[12:34] <GenNMX> ikonia: Ah, it was doing a fsck, it just didn't show any progress for some reason...
[12:34] <MeepMeep> ahh thanks ikonia
[12:34] <nomasteryoda> ikonia, no rw with ntfs
[12:34] <ikonia> MeepMeep: for hat ?
[12:34] <nomasteryoda> unless you use the ntfs3g stuff
[12:34] <gyaresu> MeepMeep: You need ntfs-3g
[12:34] <ikonia> nomasteryoda: I know this
[12:34] <nomasteryoda> k
[12:34] <MeepMeep> windows recovery, got a bad .dll causing blue screen on startup
[12:35] <MybEvil_> ikonia, thanks
[12:35] <Night_Owl> ok.. really silly question here..
[12:35] <ikonia> MeepMeep: thats a windows problem
[12:35] <Night_Owl> What exactly is the hostname for? :P
[12:35] <MeepMeep> yeppers was hjoping to remove it via the live cd, have no access any other way at this point
[12:35] <YangYin> does anyone know how i could edit my right mouse click options when on the desktop so i could add a terminal sortcut to the menu?
[12:35] <ikonia> Night_Owl: referencing your machine
[12:35] <ubuntu> se to program in C++?
[12:35] <nomasteryoda> MeepMeep, then i would get the trinity insert security iso, burn to disk and use that to repaire your winders
[12:35] <ikonia> YangYin: thats not available in gnome
[12:35] <nomasteryoda> it has ntfs3g
[12:36] <MeepMeep> thank you kindly :)

[12:37] <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
[12:37] <gyaresu> Hey. How come there is no #ubuntu-effects channel?
[12:37] <Dachra> Night_Owl, not sure if I understand the q? but the hostname is the name you give your computer...
[12:37] <jrib> lovloss: pastebin your source code file and tell us the command you are using to compile it
[12:37] <GenNMX> jrib: It's not started.
[12:37] <GenNMX> I need to start X after a failed start.
[12:37] <gyaresu> I'm trying to figure out how to get my window edges back under beryl.

[12:38] <MukiEX-da> In Azureus, the "Open File" button doesn't work. Is this just a linux thing?
[12:38] <jrib> GenNMX: then why did you say "restart" :P   sudo invoke-rc.d gdm start
[12:38] <klinger> Hi. Does anyone know how to find out which repository in my sources.list a given package comes from?
[12:38] <GenNMX> MukiEX-da: Azureus uses Java. Download and install the latest version of Java from Sun's website. (java.sun.com)
[12:38] <jrib> klinger: apt-cache policy PACKAGE_NAME    may help but it is not the answer to your question
[12:38] <MukiEX-da> GenNMX : I did so.
[12:38] <MukiEX-da> Is there a java option I'm missing then?
[12:38] <brohken> ikonia, much thanks
[12:38] <socialdisorder> can anyone help me with install ALSA drivers?
[12:38] <ikonia> bed tme
[12:39] <GenNMX> MukiEX-da: Did you also edit azureus script to point to your new installation path of Java?
[12:39] <nblracer> How do i use the "brocken" filter for an update
[12:39] <jrib> socialdisorder: alsa is included in ubuntu

[12:39] <klinger> jrib: that helps alot. thank you
[12:39] <GenNMX> MukiEX-da: Look on Azureus's wiki for information on how to do so.
[12:39] <MukiEX-da> GenMX : It runs under sun Java just fine.
[12:39] <lovloss> thats a cat, a compile and an error
[12:39] <nblracer> broken
[12:39] <jrib> klinger: g++ new.cc   since it is c++
[12:39] <MukiEX-da> The problem comes from the open button not running Konqueror or Nautilus. The open button WITHIN Azureus.
[12:39] <lovloss> with plus signs?
[12:39] <lovloss> c.c
[12:40] <MukiEX-da> The one that runs explorer when clicked in windows.
[12:40] <lovloss> oh
[12:40] <lovloss> thanks :D
[12:40] <jrib> lovloss: yeah sorry that message to klinger was meant for you:  use g++
[12:40] <socialdisorder> ok that removes the headache, i've been reading about full support for my Creative Audigy 2 card but the external box doesn't work
[12:40] <MukiEX-da> It's a really difficult bug to find any information about. I've checked the Azureus wiki, forums, and all over google. =(
[12:40] <lovloss> gah its from using aCC at school. thanks jrib
[12:40] <GenNMX> MukiEX-da: Yes, but you can have multiple versions of JRE installed at the same time. Azureus is probably using your defined path, which may not be the latest.
[12:40] <GenNMX> *Your main environment's defined path
[12:40] <loppa> I cant get my sound working, how do i check the drivers for that?
[12:41] <MukiEX-da> GeNMX : Just a sec then ;)

[12:45] <MajorPayne> How do I stop KDE from changing my X config.  I have it just the way I like it but I have to restore it when ever I turn my computer on.  I edit xorg.conf myself.  I don't know if it is kde that is changing it, but it might be.
[12:45] <bulmer> YangYin: your path pointing to correct directory?
[12:45] <nblracer> jrib it says when i update, i have one broken packedge on my system , use the "broken" filter to locate it
[12:45] <YangYin> bulmer: yes
[12:45] <YangYin> bulmer: /opt/jdk1.6.0/bin
[12:46] <bulmer> YangYin: go see the inside of the script if it uses same path as yours
[12:46] <Jrabbit> Don't spit a generic message at me
[12:46] <YangYin> bulmer: how do i check out the script.... its a .bin file
[12:46] <Jrabbit> I've scoured all recources priort to comming here
[12:46] <jrib> YangYin: it may be a shell script.  open it witha  text editor and find out
[12:46] <loppa> I need help with my sound, I dont have any. Might be drivers or something. Anybody who can help?
[12:46] <Night_Owl> OK.. *why* can't I install Samba, *or* start it?
[12:46] <MukiEX-da> GeNMX : Tho it is nice that Azureus now loads much faster =3
[12:47] <bulmer> YangYin: are you sure it is binary? not a text file?

[12:49] <MajorPayne> Why does something keep changing my xorg.conf file in Kubuntu?  I edit the file myself but something keeps changing it back.
[12:50] <ompaul> MajorPayne, use "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver.xorg" and it will stick
[12:50] <Night_Owl> So why can't I either install Samba, or start it if it already *is* installed?
[12:50] <bruenig> !samba
[12:50] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[12:50] <tenco> how can i purge all packages which i deinstalled without deleting configuration files?
[12:50] <LordKeiden> i get a kernel panick when i boot my linux install in a virtualized enviroment. how can i set up hardware profiles, like i have in winxp?
[12:50] <bruenig> tenco, purging is by definition deleting configuration files, that is what it does
[12:50] <bulmer> YangYin: worked?
[12:51] <tenco> bruenig: jep. how can i purge all deinstalled packages?
[12:51] <Regner_> ok, so i have samba installed, when i open the folder from my windows machine it does not ask me for a password or anything, how does it know what access to give me ?
[12:51] <ompaul> bruenig,   /msg ubotu resolution would have made it a private chat between you and the bot and the other makes it a message between the bot and the person - cuts out noise in the channel :)
[12:51] <MajorPayne> ompaul: Is that before or after I make the changes myself.  The screen resolution I want is not in the list they offer me.
[12:51] <tenco> bruenig: ...without hunting them all down through aptitude
[12:51] <bruenig> ompaul, ...
[12:51] <ompaul> MajorPayne, don't edit it yourself
[12:51] <snille> !jack

[12:52] <ompaul> bruenig,  and !item > user makes it less noisey :)
[12:52] <bruenig> tenco, you said without deleting configuration files? you cannot purge without deleting configuration files
[12:52] <MajorPayne> ompaul: I have to, the changes I want is not in that list.  I need a 1440x900 screen resolution, but it is not offered in the list given with that command.
[12:52] <bruenig> ompaul, but I thought that people who weren't registered couldn't get the pms
[12:52] <ompaul> bruenig, they can - they can't send that is all
[12:52] <bruenig> ah
[12:52] <sebas_> anyone knows where can i get information about what is in the linux-restricted-modules package?
[12:52] <nblracer> jrib http://pastebin.com/888233
[12:53] <tenco> bruenig: no. _with_. i have deinstalled packages with configuration left that i want to purge
[12:53] <bulmer> ompaul:  where is the default directory for user installed packages? /usr/local/ ?
[12:53] <Night_Owl> bruenig, been looking there.. Synaptic says it's installed but it won't accept a start, stop, *or* install command even from sudo.
[12:53] <ompaul> tenco, sudo apt-get remove --purge package-name   then remove any local config file in the users home directories
[12:53] <bruenig> Night_Owl, I don't know anything about samba outside of typing !samba
[12:53] <bulmer> Night_Owl: what are you looking for?
[12:53] <bruenig> ompaul, I think he wants to purge everything that he has uninstalled, without going through all of them
[12:54] <ompaul> bulmer, no it can be anywhere as they could be admin packages or optional packages
[12:54] <tenco> ompaul: jep. but i dont know all packagenames yet. are there any ways to find them automagically?
[12:54] <LordKeiden> i get a kernel panick when i boot my linux install in a virtualized enviroment. how can i set up hardware profiles, like i have in winxp?
[12:54] <Night_Owl> Trying to get it to run :P
[12:54] <Night_Owl> I found the config file and edited it
[12:54] <jrib> tenco: a combination of dpkg -l, grep, awk, and apt-get/aptitude/dpkg  should work
[12:54] <Night_Owl> And in Dapper, everything was where the documentation said
[12:54] <bulmer> Night_Owl: you need to learn to prefix your responses with a nick..so we know to whom you're responding
[12:54] <ompaul> tenco, ls /var/cache/apt/archives <<<  in there - but it still does not remove the packages you have config files in your home dir
[12:54] <tenco> jrib: hmm. ok. i just thought that there might be some magic aptitude option for that
[12:55] <Night_Owl> But it seems to have been moved and I have no idea what's going on :P
[12:55] <turbolover> okay yay
[12:55] <turbolover> foudn out what the problem was
[12:55] <turbolover> it updated my driver and the newest version no longer supports my card
[12:55] <turbolover> those buggers
[12:55] <Tuumba> !nvidia
[12:55] <ompaul> tenco, apt-get or that cut down version aptitude is magic - just not a miracle worker :)
[12:55] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:55] <Night_Owl> sorry, bulmer.. not used to being in a room this highly populated.
[12:55] <jrib> tenco: you can come up with an aptitude command as well, see the aptitude search docs
[12:55] <LordKeiden> i get a kernel panick when i boot my linux install in a virtualized enviroment. how can i set up hardware profiles, like i have in winxp?
[12:55] <Zilulil> i need help... git doesn't seem to want to work for me
[12:56] <ompaul> !enter > turbolover
[12:56] <jrib> tenco: aptitude purge '~c'    seems to do it, for future reference: http://people.debian.org/~dburrows/aptitude-doc/en/ch02s03.html
[12:57] <tenco> jrib: thanks!
[12:57] <jrib> tenco: wait, I don't know if that actually works... does it?
[12:57] <ericrost> hey all, I need some help getting the livecd running on my new laptop that I bought to convert over to ubuntu
[12:57] <Zilulil> i'm trying to use git for wine... and i got git compiled and installed... and it doesn't work
[12:57] <tenco> jrib: i am trying with search option now
[12:57] <Night_Owl> bulmer, it boils down to this: Synaptic says it's installed, but it's not found somewhere it knows to find it so the start and stop commands won't take.
[12:57] <nblracer> jrib http://pastebin.com/888236
[12:57] <tenco> jrib: looks good
[12:58] <Zilulil> ericrost: what's the problem with the CD?
[12:58] <LordKeiden> ericrost, new as in the last 6 months? or just new to u?
[12:58] <Night_Owl> At least that's my read on it.
[12:58] <ericrost> new as in today
[12:58] <bulmer> Night_Owl: it has an entry in /etc/init.d/ ?
[12:58] <jrib> nblracer: pastebin.com takes a really long time to load
[12:58] <Zilulil> nobody can help me with my wine/git problem?
[12:58] <Izz1> Vodoo 3dfx drivers any ideas where I can find them ?
[12:58] <nblracer> oh i thought it was just me
[12:58] <ericrost> it is running the intel 950 MGA video chipset, on a widescreen lcd
[12:58] <ubernub> lspci identifies my network card but i still am having trouble configuring it
[12:58] <kemp> can anyone tell me how to start Xine with an xmodmap file?
[12:59] <nblracer> thats why i pasted it 2 times, thinking one got corrupt
[12:59] <kemp> with KDE I used this command -  xmodmap /$$HOME/.xmodmap_xine | xine
[12:59] <kemp> with ubuntu I can't get it to work....
[12:59] <Night_Owl> bulmer: Doesn't look like it.. not as such.
[12:59] <vox754> Zilulil, sorry, I don't even know what git is.
[12:59] <Zilulil> ah
[12:59] <Night_Owl> Should I uninstall and reinstall Samba?
[12:59] <Zilulil> i'm trying to get wine
[12:59] <Zilulil> to work with EVE
[12:59] <snille> What is "jack" more then a "rip" program?
[12:59] <LordKeiden> ericrost, what problem are you having?
[12:59] <Zilulil> and it really isnt' cooperating
[12:59] <ericrost> it won't start the X server, it errors with: No Video BIOS modes for chosen depth, I've set it to all available depths (this is booting from the livecd
[12:59] <bulmer> Night_Owl: then you probably dont have it installed?
[01:00] <SpacePuppy> http://www.xfree86.org/4.2.0/xmodmap.1.html
[01:00] <ompaul> kemp, you don't: xmodmap - utility for modifying keymaps and pointer button mappings in X
[01:00] <Night_Owl> bulmer: That would make sense, except Synaptic seems to think otherwise.
[01:00] <SpacePuppy> kemp:  $$  ?
[01:00] <ericrost> I'm on my ubuntu desktop system now, and can't get the lappy past go, so I'll have to type any info you want
[01:00] <ericrost> I also tried the "safe video mode" boot option
[01:00] <Jrabbit> Ok
[01:01] <bulmer> Night_Owl: well..try to install it again?
[01:01] <ericrost> and tried the bootline option of vga=771
[01:01] <vox754> random info: you want to backup? read this http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=287522
[01:01] <Jrabbit> My windows driver is loaded in ndiswrapper works
[01:01] <kemp> ompaul: that command started XIne for me with an homemade key mapped file - xmodmap_xine
[01:01] <Zilulil> hrm... anybody know how to make wine work?
[01:01] <Jrabbit> but it is not displaying in network-admin
[01:01] <johnny2> well..
[01:01] <johnny2> i'm back again
[01:01] <kemp> not sure why it worked with debian-kde and not in ubuntu
[01:01] <kevogod> I am trying to install Ubuntu 6.10 64-bit and when it tries to install it goes into an infinite loop displaying the Ubuntu loading screen in black and white.
[01:01] <ericrost> any ideas which way to go now?
[01:02] <vox754> Jrabbit, come here #ndiswrapper
[01:02] <jrib> nblracer: do you have update-manager or any other package manager open?
[01:02] <ompaul> kemp, well why not ask the folks in #kubuntu about starting a program on starting kde
[01:02] <nblracer> jrib not i know of
[01:02] <johnny2> well.. i switched my minipci card from bcm43xx.. to ipw2100
[01:02] <Night_Owl> bulmer: It wants to remove ubuntu-desktop too.. is that going to be an issue?
[01:02] <johnny2> and still.. no dice
[01:02] <bulmer> ericrost: you're installing? i missed what you said previously
[01:02] <johnny2> iwlist eth2 scan
[01:02] <LordKeiden> ericrost, I had problems with the xserver not starting and locking the system on my 2 month old presarit, amd cpu and nvidia, but i found that a common problem in the newer lappy's is the APIC and the way the kernel tries to talk to it. for me the fix was to add "noapic" to the boot options by pressing f6 at the boot menu of the live cd...
[01:02] <johnny2> no results
[01:03] <jrib> nblracer: ps -ef | grep apt        on pastebin please
[01:03] <johnny2> and networkmanager's list is empty
[01:03] <n3rrd> on a fresh install of Ubuntu, where would all the C header files be hidden? :|
[01:03] <kemp> well, I am not using kde now
[01:03] <johnny2> n3rrd, there aren't any
[01:03] <jrib> n3rrd: /dev/null?
[01:03] <kevogod> Anyone know if there are any issues installing 6.10 with an ATI Radeon x300? The installer jams at the black and white Ubuntu loading screen.
[01:03] <bulmer> Night_Owl: i would not remove ubuntu-desktop..but thats me
[01:03] <johnny2> you have to install them
[01:03] <ericrost> LordKeiden: "-noapic" or just "noapic"?
[01:03] <johnny2> apt-get install build-essentials at the very least
[01:03] <n3rrd> johnny2:  thanks.
[01:03] <ompaul> kemp, well if you were using gnome you could System Preferences Sessions
[01:03] <LordKeiden> ericrost, notice that it is noAPIC, not ACPI. this isnt a powermanagement thing, it is  indeed apic
[01:03] <bulmer> kevogod: try the lower resolution perhaps?
[01:03] <johnny2> or maybe it's build-essential
[01:03] <kevogod> bulmer, I selected VGA.
[01:04] <johnny2> n3rrd, and then specific devel packages for whatever you need
[01:04] <LordKeiden> ericrost, -noapic
[01:04] <kemp> ok, thanks, I'll try that
[01:04] <ericrost> thx I'll try and report back..
[01:04] <johnny2> so.. no wireless is working on this laptop now
[01:04] <johnny2> not a single one
[01:04] <bulmer> kevogod: can your new card do vga?
[01:04] <kevogod> Of course
[01:04] <cruel_dog> Hi, i need help, i wanna know how to enable MIDI (.mid) file playing (i use breezy badger)
[01:04] <johnny2> well between the 3 different cards i've tried.. 2 bcm43xx and 1 ipw2100
[01:04] <kevogod> 6.04 or previous versions never gave a problem during install
[01:04] <johnny2> some people need to leanr how to ujse google..
[01:04] <LordKeiden> ericrost, after install, i had to install the drivers for wifi and nvidia, but it has been dead stable for me.
[01:04] <bulmer> kevogood i dont know, maybe it expect it would only be used for newer stuff
[01:04] <Night_Owl> bulmer: It's not giving me an option to remove it without removing ubuntu-desktop :P

[01:06] <kevogod> bulmer, 6.04, 5.10, and 5.04 all installed fine.
[01:06] <cruel_dog> i cant upgrade
[01:06] <ericrost> LordKeiden: yeah, I figured with drivers it would work, its just getting it into a useable env to install... I wonder if I boot into someone else's (Knoppix) and then try installing if that would fly? (its attempting the boot right now
[01:06] <jrib> GenNMX: google or your manufacturer's website?

[01:07] <bulmer> Night_Owl in your system, you have /etc/samba ?
[01:07] <Zilulil> where does wine install?
[01:07] <Zilulil> i can't find it
[01:08] <ucordes> gyaresu: try #beryl ^^
[01:08] <Night_Owl> bulmer: Mind if I PM you? Might be a lil less confusing.
[01:08] <bulmer> Night_Owl: stay here at the main please
[01:08] <jrib> gyaresu: #ubuntu-effects is still there isn't it?
[01:08] <bulmer> so they can correct me if I advised you wrongly
[01:08] <gyaresu> ucordes: Cheers. Someone might want to change ubotu's message for !beryl then.
[01:08] <LordKeiden> ericrost, maybe use the alternate cd, have the debs with your video drivers on a usb stick, install ubuntu, boot the installed ubuntu into the kernel safe mode, install the video driver debs from the stick?
[01:08] <ucordes> !beryl
[01:08] <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

[01:08] <gyaresu> zackly.
[01:08] <xtknight> GenNMX: look in the manual here http://org.downloadcenter.samsung.com/downloadfile/ContentsFile.aspx?CDSite=SS&CttFileID=262322&CDCttType=UM&ModelType=N&ModelName=242MP&VPath=UM/200503/20050318172557328_BN59-00391D-00EnNT.pdf
[01:09] <Night_Owl> bulmer: .. ok.. And yes it's there.
[01:09] <jrib> nblracer: does it say that after a reboot?
[01:09] <nblracer> yes
[01:09] <ericrost> hmm.. okay, just wget the debs to the stick, then whats the apt-get command to use a local deb?
[01:09] <Night_Owl> bulmer: But all that's in it are the config file and gdbcommands.
[01:09] <nblracer> jrib i keep getting fix broken pack.
[01:09] <ericrost> (I'm most familiar with gentoo/portage, sorry)
[01:09] <agnostic> plz, a good manual for connecting one laptop with one desktop, with a crossover cable. Thanks :)
[01:10] <jrib> nblracer: no, I mean the "unable to get a lock" thing
[01:10] <bulmer> Night_Owl: how did you start samba again?
[01:10] <nblracer> never tryed
[01:10] <jrib> nblracer: try
[01:10] <nblracer> k
[01:10] <Night_Owl> I didn't.
[01:10] <LordKeiden> ericrost, hmmm...not sure, i have always used gdebi...in gnome...
[01:10] <bulmer> Night_Owl: how did you *attempt to start samba again?
[01:11] <nblracer> jrib not to be an ass, but i got to run. Thanks for your time so far
[01:11] <LordKeiden> how does ericrost install a local deb in a terminal?
[01:11] <gyaresu> jrib: No. Join and you'll be the only one.
[01:11] <ericrost> where can i put the deb so apt-get sees it? that's what you do with portage anyhow.. its smart enough to look in its cache and see the package there
[01:12] <LordKeiden> ericrost, way over my head now...i'm a vista refugee
[01:12] <erUSUL> ericrost: try in /var/cache/apt/archives/
[01:12] <gyaresu> jrib: I don't even think #ubuntu-effects is registered, but I'm not an IRC monkey so I don't know.
[01:12] <Arafangion> How do I fix this problem, using hte latest ati drives? Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
[01:13] <r3factored> is there a minimal install image for ubuntu? I want to boot from a usb stick. (1gb)
[01:13] <Arafangion> Ahh, the composite *crap* again.
[01:13] <Night_Owl> bulmer: sudo /etc/init.d/samba stop and just about every reasonable variant I coudl come up with
[01:13] <bulmer> r3factored: only one i know of thats less than 100Meg is DSL
[01:13] <JR302GT> Hello...
[01:13] <dave47> hello
[01:14] <gyaresu> !hi > dave47
[01:14] <JR302GT> Does anyone have any experience with running an America's Army server on Ubuntu?
[01:14] <bulmer> Night_Owl: I dont have samba installed ..and i dont see an entry in /etc/init.d either
[01:14] <jrib> gyaresu: I'm there withh 64 other people atm
[01:14] <r3factored> bulmer: hmmm that sucks. I know gentoo had a little image you could boot and do a network install. DSL is pretty cool in concept though
[01:14] <bulmer> Night_Owl: locate smbd
[01:14] <gyaresu> jrib: Meh! I must be an idiot.
[01:14] <r3factored> bulmer: wait my usb stick is 1gb
[01:14] <LordKeiden> r3factored, have you looked a puppy linux?
[01:15] <Night_Owl> bulmer: Nothing.
[01:15] <dave47> I'm trying to get remote desktop (VNC) to work when not logged in. Posted instructions don't work?
[01:15] <bulmer> r3factored: most are over a gig
[01:15] <r3factored> i want to install ubuntu on my hard drive but im having problems creating a bootable dvd with k3b.
[01:15] <r3factored> i just want something to boot from
[01:15] <bulmer> Night_Owl: that meant its not installed, its smbd that runs as the daemon
[01:15] <bimberi> r3factored: it's possible to put the install CD contents onto a USB stick and install from it ...
[01:16] <r3factored> bimberi: awesome. can i extract that from the dvd as well?
[01:16] <vox754> JR302GT, what is that?
[01:16] <Night_Owl> bulmer: Well I tried installing it with the command that's given here http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202605 ie the apt-get and it came up saying it couldn't find it
[01:17] <bimberi> r3factored: not sure.  The instructions are here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[01:17] <JR302GT> A game, first person shooter....or did you mean what did I say?
[01:17] <r3factored> bimberi: thanks a ton
[01:17] <bimberi> r3factored: np :)
[01:18] <vox754> JR302GT, oh... I just thought the military were going to use Ubuntu on their machines or some crazy thing like that.
[01:18] <JR302GT> vox754:  LOL
[01:18] <bulmer> Night_Owl: with that guide, at which point does it fail?
[01:18] <dave47> Anyone know how to get VNC server to run when not logged in?
[01:18] <turbolover> growl
[01:19] <bulmer> Night_Owl: apt-get install samba ?  this only means your sources dont have it, so include a url that have it
[01:19] <OCgraphikz> can i have some help with tcl and ubuntu?
[01:19] <turbolover> how can something as simple as a driver be so irritating and difficult to do
[01:19] <turbolover> ?
[01:19] <vox754> OCgraphikz, what do you want to know?
[01:19] <bulmer> dave47: come again? you want to start a service but you are not logged in?
[01:19] <zimdba> help: ubuntu 6.10 server install won't install LILO or GRUB.  Where do I start debugging?
[01:19] <turbolover>  and then when it is done right, an update comes along and screws it up
[01:20] <zimdba> can I continue the install and come back to installing LILO later?
[01:20] <turbolover> bye fuckers
[01:20] <Night_Owl> bulmer: Package samba is not available, but is referred to by another package. (etc)
[01:20] <vox754> turbolover, what is that driver?
[01:20] <puff> Anybody familiar with gtkpod?  It's telling me I haven't imported my itunes db, there is nothing in the menus labeled "import".
[01:20] <dave47> Yes, I want to be able to log into my Ubuntu account using VNC from a remote when I'm not already logged onto Ubuntu.
[01:20] <bulmer> turbolover: drivers are easy to do? heck im been trying to learn to code one..am getting stuck all the time :)
[01:21] <vox754> bulmer, that turbolover has been roaming here for months, he'll come back.
[01:21] <tehxed> crimsun: you there?
[01:21] <GenNMX> Great...I don't know what I did, but I broke xinerama.
[01:21] <bulmer> dave47: you have heard of cron? let cron start your ubuntu at certain time...btw can you respond with a nick prefixed
[01:21] <crimsun> tehxed: I'm very busy.
[01:21] <dave47> On FC5 I simply ran "vncserver :1" to do it
[01:22] <JR302GT> If I use Terminal to run the game server, server-bin, it tells me Permission denied.  So if I use sudo it tells me command not found.  What do I have to do to run this game server?
[01:22] <tehxed> crimsun: Sorry then. Just respond when you have a 1 minute
[01:22] <bulmer> dave47 but you are logged on to FC5 when you issue that command
[01:22] <Trixsey> http://justfuckinggoogleit.com/
[01:22] <tehxed> crimsun: You gave me this one line about external.. something or the other a little while ago
[01:22] <bulmer> dave47 maybe I dont understand what you meant by not logged on?
[01:22] <gyaresu> It's tehxed. Hi.
[01:22] <dave47> bulmer: yes. but then I log out and the vncserver ramains running
[01:22] <tehxed> crimsun: To fix my sound. I can't remember it now...
[01:22] <tehxed> gyaresu: Hello!
[01:22] <GionnyBoss> how can I savely remove a kernel module?
[01:23] <GenNMX> X is now ONLY using Clone, even though I have it turned off...
[01:23] <GionnyBoss> I want to remove a kernel module without messing up my system... how can I do?
[01:23] <gyaresu> tehxed: What's the prob maybe I can help?
[01:23] <bulmer> dave47 vncserver remains running unless it is killed..
[01:23] <tehxed> gyaresu: Ehh.. I formatted and re-installed Ubuntu Edgy Eft 6.10
[01:23] <vox754> GionnyBoss, what module, why?
[01:23] <gyaresu> GionnyBoss: 'sudo modprobe -r thing'
[01:23] <bulmer> dave47: perhaps you can start it with nohup
[01:23] <gyaresu> tehxed: Hardcore. Just for practice?
[01:23] <GionnyBoss> the problem is that I installed a driver with make install
[01:23] <nekr0z> Hi all! Can anybody help me find a compose sequence for "LATIN SMALL LETTER G WITH CIRCUMFLEX"?
[01:23] <dave47> bulmer true, but there is no vncserver on Ubuntu. I installed one but it would not give me a desktop.
[01:24] <tehxed> gyaresu: Well I messed around with the video drivers too much and was attempting to get Beryl working
[01:24] <GionnyBoss> if I use modprobe -r , the module still stays there... it's not completely removed, it's just not loaded. I want to completely remove it
[01:24] <gyaresu> tehxed: ah. The annoyink beryl.
[01:24] <adaptr> rmmod
[01:24] <vox754> nekr0z, just curious, which language?
[01:24] <tehxed> gyaresu:  And then it decided that Beryl would act like a crazy monkey. Windows wouldn't move. THe window on top was all I could access and the menu (Applications, Places, System)
[01:24] <mrcucumber> I have a pretty urgent problem, it seems the observer I just added isn't well.. observing. I just deployed and it's failing to send out confirmation emails when people sign up, do I have to restart the system somehow for the obeserver to take effect? is their any reson it wouldn't be working?
[01:24] <bulmer> dave47: can you go over what steps you have done?
[01:24] <nekr0z> vox754: Esperanto
[01:24] <tehxed> gyaresu: Going to try again now.
[01:24] <dave47> bulmer I also tried the xined but it is not there either
[01:24] <GionnyBoss> adaptr: it's the same thing with rmmod... then I can load it again with modprobe. I want to remove it completely, so that if I try to "modprobe modname" again, it says "module not found"
[01:25] <lovloss> I want to program with qt3 but apt-cache search qt3 gives me all sorts of stuff
[01:25] <NDPTAL85> Hey all, anyone have any experience with this? http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/overview.html
[01:25] <lovloss> libqt3-headers?
[01:25] <vox754> GionnyBoss, go where you did "make install" but do "sudo make uninstall" many times
[01:25] <adaptr> GionnyBoss: it *will not* say that if it's not loaded
[01:25] <mrcucumber> opps wrong room
[01:25] <dave47> bulmer - I installed vncserver, setup a vnspasswd, created a .vnc/xstartup
[01:25] <bulmer> dave47: can you go over what steps you have done? just to give me an idea of how you started the vncserver and how you attempt to display it remotely
[01:25] <gyaresu> tehxed: Have you used it berfore? I've installed it and updated it a few times to check it's progress and then always end up returning to my simple little fluxbox. Just my preference I reckon.
[01:25] <tehxed> gyaresu:  But first.. I don't know if you recall the issue with my sound ..being in and out. If I'd restart it would go out.. restart again and it would be gone...
[01:25] <tehxed> gyaresu: That's back.
[01:25] <adaptr> GionnyBoss: if you're trying to modprobe a non-existent module - what's the point ?
[01:25] <dave47> bulmer then ran vncserver :1 ... it works, but I get a blank desktop
[01:25] <GionnyBoss> VoX: I tryed it but doesn't seem to work :(
[01:25] <tehxed> gyaresu: Ehh.. I want to try it before I give up on it. =\
[01:26] <gyaresu> tehxed: Right. adn cri-msun told you the 'something something something' command that fixed it...
[01:26] <alican> hey guys
[01:26] <alican> can someone help me find out my system specs in ubuntu?
[01:26] <bulmer> dave47 whats on that .vnc/startup? anything that you started like xchess or gnome-session?
[01:26] <vox754> GionnyBoss, again, which program where you trying to install?
[01:26] <JR302GT> If I use Terminal to run the game server, server-bin, it tells me Permission denied.  So if I use sudo it tells me command not found.  What do I have to do to run this game server?
[01:26] <a5benwillis> I need help with an NSS, PAM, NCP with SSH issue. Im using an NSS/NCP module in my nsswitch.conf file to do a user lookup on an NDS server.
[01:26] <a5benwillis> When I try to log in via SSH the user is found with the NSS module, authenticated via an NCP so module but I still can't log on.
[01:26] <a5benwillis> .
[01:26] <a5benwillis> I see in the /var/auth.log file that the user is successfully authenticated.
[01:26] <a5benwillis> .
[01:26] <a5benwillis> The last message I get in my auth.log is
[01:26] <a5benwillis> -ssd[6995] : debug1: do_pam_account: called
[01:27] <a5benwillis> .
[01:27] <tehxed> gyaresu: Exactly! That's what I'm trying to remember..
[01:27] <a5benwillis> When this happens the ssh client side accepts the password and just sits there.
[01:27] <dave47> bulmer - gnome-session & and xterm &
[01:27] <a5benwillis> .
[01:27] <a5benwillis> Eventually another error is logged in auth.log
[01:27] <a5benwillis> -Fatal: Timeout before authentication for 127.0.0.1
[01:27] <tehxed> gyaresu: And that's why I asked him. but he's busy.. so I'll wait
[01:27] <rp3> ok have printer issues, when I run setup - printers it takes forever to load, it see's the printer on the network, but it doesn't work.  How can I remove that definition so I can reload, with correct drivers as I think this is my issue?
[01:27] <a5benwillis> .
[01:27] <tehxed> gyaresu: Until then.. I have an issue
[01:27] <GionnyBoss> vox754: now it worked... don't know why it didn't work first time with sudo make uninstall
[01:27] <adaptr> !flood | a5benwillis:
[01:27] <ubotu> a5benwillis:: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[01:27] <GionnyBoss> now it worked, thanks :)
[01:27] <bulmer> dave47: and those gave you blank?
[01:27] <alican> can someone help me find out my system specs in ubuntu?
[01:27] <adaptr> !enter | a5benwillis
[01:27] <ubotu> a5benwillis: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[01:27] <vox754> GionnyBoss, thank you for using the channel.
[01:27] <tehxed> gyaresu: fglrxinfo returns: "Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0"."
[01:27] <GionnyBoss> vox754: thank you for helping me ;)
[01:27] <dave47> I once was able to get an undecorated xterm but no menus or desktop
[01:27] <nekr0z> Or just any hint where to search for the list of compose sequences in Ubuntu? I have googled for one list, but it doesn't look completely right, some sequences are wrong...
[01:28] <adaptr> vox754: damn, nobody ever thanked me...
[01:28] <a5benwillis> Just reasking the same question from earlier.....
[01:28] <vox754> adaptr, life is unfair...
[01:28] <adaptr> a5benwillis: that's not a question, it's 7 lines where 1 would suffice
[01:28] <a5benwillis> ok, I'll reask it then.
[01:28] <adaptr> a5benwillis: there is but one currency on IRC, and that's screen space
[01:29] <alican> guys come on can't someone help me find out my system specs?
[01:29] <bulmer> dave47: the last command in that xsetup must be the windows manager
[01:29] <adaptr> alican: did you buy your computer ? surely you know what's in it...
[01:29] <vox754> alican, what do you need to know try "sudo lspci -v"
[01:29] <IndyGunFreak> alican: you don't know them?
[01:29] <dave47> bulmer: I followed the instructions in the ubuntu forum and it crashed the vncserver, the window manager was last ...
[01:29] <adaptr> alican: device viewer in hte system menu
[01:29] <a5benwillis> It was to tough of a question for this chan anyway. Thanks
[01:30] <alican> i can't remember.. and i need the specific model names..
[01:30] <alican> ok thanks
[01:30] <adaptr> a5benwillis: nobody knows, I'm afraid - all you have managed to establish is that you cannot ask it in less than a dozen lines
[01:30] <vox754> Jrabbit, how are things?
[01:30] <dave47> bulmer: I also tried to setup XGM but it wants an xinetd that I don't seem to have either
[01:30] <bulmer> dave47: try again? try with the simple twm ?
[01:30] <adaptr> alican: write them down this time ;-)
[01:30] <a5benwillis> yep, thanks again.
[01:31] <Jrabbit> vox754: not good
[01:31] <dave47> bulmer: I tried twm first ...
[01:31] <Jrabbit> vox754:  I've got it in netwrok-admin
[01:31] <gyaresu> tehxed: http://forums.bsdnexus.com/viewtopic.php?pid=12476 It shows how to search a window log.
[01:31] <dave47> bulmer: it was the default before I created my own xstartup
[01:31] <Jrabbit> vox754:  Not functioning though
[01:31] <bulmer> dave47: what happened using the default?
[01:31] <alican> no good. it doesn't display anything..
[01:32] <IndyGunFreak> alican: well, then you;re hit
[01:32] <IndyGunFreak> crack the case open and read labels
[01:32] <GionnyBoss> adaptr: if nobody ever thanked you, that really is strange! I can't understand why people don't thank you and other guys here doing a very good job! keep doing this very good work and I hope to get more expert with Linux so I can help users too ;)
[01:32] <alican> yeah i guess. thank you all
[01:32] <JR302GT> Why do I get a "Permission denied" when trying to run a game server?  It's in my user's folder.
[01:32] <dave47> bulmer: black and white checkered screen with no menu, no xterm, just the X cursor.
[01:32] <adaptr> GionnyBoss: now that *is* nice ! thank you , sir
[01:32] <vox754> Jrabbit, I wouldn't pay attention to the graphical interface, but the terminal is important.
[01:32] <IndyGunFreak> i don't worry  much about being thanked
[01:32] <bulmer> dave47 then you can add one item at a time
[01:32] <Tibmol> i have a big problem about xserver it crashed
[01:32] <Night_Owl> bulmer: I'm running out of ideas :/
[01:33] <vox754> adaptr, oh man, how do you feel now...
[01:33] <adaptr> vox754: it's like floating on air, I tell you
[01:33] <dave47> bulmer: how would I add the menus for the desktop?
[01:33] <Tibmol> someone help me ?
[01:33] <t35t0r> have bots been coming into this channel and posting nasty xrl.us links with javascript exploits?
[01:33] <tehxed> gyaresu: What should I be doing with that window log?
[01:33] <Tibmol> there is a problem on xorg.conf
[01:34] <bulmer> dave47 am going to google for one sample..hang on
[01:34] <adaptr> JR302GT: for one thing, if the game server wanted to use low network sockets, your normal user would be prohibited from doing so
[01:34] <Arafangion> Ok, how do I fix this Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
[01:34] <dave47> bulmer: lol, been the, done that ...
[01:34] <vox754> Tibmol, spit it, what else?
[01:34] <Arafangion> I have already disabled composite, rebooted, said all my magical incantations, to no avail.
[01:34] <adaptr> Tibmol: not until you tell us what happened, and you can start by reading the x server log
[01:34] <JR302GT> adaptr:  Not sure what low network sockets are, but how do I get around it if that is the case?
[01:34] <ubuntu> eheeeeeeeeeeeeee sTARCRAFT
[01:34] <ubuntu> WORK
[01:34] <adaptr> JR302GT: you can't - start the server as root
[01:35] <Arafangion> I am TRYING to get my ati driver to work with 3d acceleration.
[01:35] <ubuntu> someone test counter strike
[01:35] <Tibmol> and when i restart my pc it didnt start
[01:35] <jrib> ubuntu: check wine's appdb
[01:35] <gyaresu> tehxed: sorry tehxed i was just scrolling back to yesterday...
[01:35] <adaptr> JR302GT: many "server" services need to be run as root regardless
[01:35] <Tibmol> now i see a text based linux :(
[01:35] <vox754> ubuntu, congratulations, just remember games aren't that important in life.
[01:35] <t35t0r> wth is up with this finance nick chaner
[01:35] <adaptr> Tibmol: you still haven't said what the problem is
[01:35] <ubuntu> vox754 ok man
[01:35] <JR302GT> adaptr:  How do I log into root when it's disabled?
[01:35] <gyaresu> tehxed: My window only had from your wireless card problem. The sound comment was from before that.
[01:35] <ubuntu> jrib wine ???
[01:35] <ompaul> !nickspam > etrade
[01:35] <Tibmol> i installed nvidia drvers
[01:36] <Xzenome> Arafangion, I still haven't got my ATI card to work properly after about 2 months, so instead I use a NVidia card.
[01:36] <adaptr> JR302GT: you never "log into root" - you run a program *as* root, with sudo
[01:36] <tehxed> gyaresu: It would be kind of useless for me to do that. I .. formatted, remember?
[01:36] <klinger> Arafangion: did you add 'Load "dri"' to the "Module"-section of your xorg.conf.
[01:36] <jrib> ubuntu: yeah, don't you need wine (or maybe cedega) to run those games?
[01:36] <Tibmol> drivers and xserver crashed i m new on linux
[01:36] <ubuntu> Xzenome: you need to download the latest linux-restricted
[01:36] <ubuntu> jrib ok and what i need to see there?
[01:36] <adaptr> Tibmol: so how do you know the drivers *and* the xserver crashed ? why would it be the drivers ?
[01:36] <Arafangion> klinger: Yes.
[01:36] <etrade> opps
[01:36] <Tibmol> it says there is a problem on xorg.conf file
[01:37] <jrib> ubuntu: see if other people got it to work and how
[01:37] <gyaresu> Anyone have more than 24hrs of log file for this channel? Could you do a 'locate tehxed |grep crim-sun' (minus the hyphen in crim-sun. Just didn't want to bug him)
[01:37] <Arafangion> klinger: I have bitmap, dbe, ddc, dri, extmod, freetype, glx, int10, type1 and vbe
[01:37] <JR302GT> adaptr:  I did try that, not sure if it was done correctly though!  I got into the correct folder and typed sudo ./server-bin and it returns a different error...command not found.
[01:37] <adaptr> Tibmol: run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to re-create the xorg.conf file
[01:37] <Xzenome> ubuntu, I did have the latest linux-restricted at the time.
[01:37] <ubuntu> jrib ok no problem
[01:37] <klinger> Arafangion: ok, then i don't know either
[01:37] <Tibmol> couse i did what the ubuntu official web page says me
[01:37] <Tibmol> !nvidia
[01:37] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:37] <JR302GT> adaptr:  I did that in Terminal.  Is that correct place to be?
[01:38] <adaptr> JR302GT: how would I know ? I don't know what you're trying to run
[01:38] <JR302GT> adaptr:  It's a game server, America's Army.
[01:38] <adaptr> Tibmol: Edgy ? new or older nvidia card ? did you run the xconfig ?
[01:38] <Tibmol> fx5200
[01:38] <Tibmol> 6.06.1
[01:38] <GionnyBoss> how can I remove a kernel module manually? I just noticed that I have a kernel module that I guess I installed some time ago, but I don't remember from where I installed it... so I can't do the "make uninstall" thing...
[01:39] <Tibmol> Close all your applications, then press Ctrl-Alt-Backspace, or restart your computer, to restart the X server. If you see an NVIDIA splashscreen after hitting Ctrl-Alt-Backspace, your drivers are properly installed.
[01:39] <adaptr> JR302GT: never seen it, is it linux native ? don't you need to setup a config before running the server ?
[01:39] <Tibmol> i did this ^^
[01:39] <nekr0z> Ok, I have found that I need either "dead_circumflex" or "asciicircum" key. Can anybody please give a hint which ones those are?
[01:39] <adaptr> Tibmol: and ? did you see the nvidia logo ?
[01:39] <Tibmol> no
[01:39] <Tibmol> x server crashed
[01:39] <Arafangion> Tibmol: Those instructions are incomplete.
[01:39] <n0ize> What would cause an installed version of ubuntu to see my disks in a different order than say the live cd? it's really keeping grub from working at all and booting.
[01:39] <adaptr> Tibmol: what does the x server log say ?
[01:39] <Arafangion> Tibmol: Wait, no they're not.
[01:40] <adaptr> Arafangion: they're *still* useless ? sigh...
[01:40] <Rio> im trying to install ubuntu 6.06 lts, and i get a warning about a corrupt file right after i enter in a username and password for the first login account.  the first warning is file:///cdrom/dists/dapper/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz....how should i go about installing the server?
[01:40] <ubuntu> Xzenome: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=72490
[01:40] <JR302GT> adaptr:  No, it was just unzipped to a folder.  I have had it running on other versions of Linux, but having trouble here.
[01:40] <Arafangion> adaptr: It's more that the ati installer is *CRAP*
[01:40] <davejustdave> anyone know why only one of my speakers is working? they worked fine on windows then installed ubuntu and only right channel has sound i checked the wires and balance
[01:40] <Tibmol> i think i must repair the xorg.conf file
[01:40] <adaptr> JR302GT: did you run it as user there, too ? then strace it and see what happens
[01:40] <nekr0z> Rio: You'd better check if your cd is ok and reburn it if possible.
[01:41] <Hellevator_> davejustdave, just curious, what kind of speakers are they?
[01:41] <Tibmol> can u say me comment on terminal ?
[01:41] <davidgw7> i installed dapper 64 bit becouse it runs more stably on my stem then edgy 32bit but im running into lack of suport for 64 bit apps how do set up 32 emu on this
[01:41] <adaptr> JR302GT: ubuntu is by default a lot less forgiving than other linux distro's, where one tends to do these things as root
[01:41] <davejustdave> jbl that came with my computer (compaq presario )
[01:41] <Rio> nekr0z reburn? damn that would be the 3rd cd.  i even tried to burn it on the lowest speed and i still get the same error
[01:41] <adaptr> Tibmol: you *need* to *read* the *x server log*
[01:41] <JR302GT> adaptr:  I'm sorry, I have no idea what strace is.
[01:41] <adaptr> !strace
[01:41] <ubotu> strace: A system call tracer. In component main, is standard. Version 4.5.14-1ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 92 kB, installed size 248 kB (Only available for alpha amd64 arm armeb hppa i386 ia64 m68k mips mipsel powerpc ppc64 s390 s390x sh sparc)
[01:41] <Tibmol> adaptr: i m new on linux....
[01:41] <nekr0z> Rio: Did you check md5 sum?
[01:41] <JR302GT> I'm a Linux noob.
[01:41] <ubuntu> Xzenome: here is the full completa nvidia http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_Graphics_Driver_.28NVIDIA.29
[01:42] <Hellevator_> davidgw7, 64 bit should automatically be emulate 32 bit applications already.  try installing 32bit apps and see if they work.
[01:42] <adaptr> Tibmol: tail /var/log/xorg.0.log
[01:42] <ubuntu> they told you how to install i test it and it work.
[01:42] <Rio> nekr0z whats that
[01:42] <justdave> davejustdave: there's a bunch of different sound systems on Linux, I think Ubuntu uses ALSA (don't remember for sure).  Have you tried playing around in alsamixergui?
[01:42] <adaptr> Tibmol: or look at a few more lines with less
[01:42] <davidgw7> ok thanks
[01:42] <Hellevator_> davejustdave, check your sound settings and make sure its set to center and not all the way left or all the way right
[01:42] <nekr0z> Rio: I mean, are you absolutely sure that your cd iso was downloaded without errors?
[01:42] <Rio> nekr0z i checked the verify data in nero, and it checked out okay
[01:42] <Dr_willis> a bunch? oss and alsa is a bunch? :)
[01:42] <Rio> nekr0z well i guess i can give it one more shot... see what happens
[01:42] <Tibmol> adaptr : wait plz i will check but how van i read it on terminal ?
[01:42] <Xzenome> ubuntu, I have Nvidia working flawlessly, it is ATI that doesn't work for me
[01:43] <Tibmol> what is the comment ?
[01:43] <Rio> nekr0z but what are some other options
[01:43] <nekr0z> Rio: Yes, but nero only shows if cd is the same as ISO you have. It doesn't say if ISO itself is OK...
[01:43] <davejustdave> hellevator balance is set as left and right channell they are locked together so should be fine
[01:43] <davidgw7> yeh just installed nvidia drivers here no problem got the spash and all
[01:43] <adaptr> Dr_willis: oss is dead, there is ALSA, JACK, OpenAL, probably others
[01:43] <Rio> nekr0z ahh
[01:44] <adaptr> Tibmol: just do what I said
[01:44] <Alex> Hi dudes. I've got a Sony Vaio here and the function keys don't appear to work - any suggestions where I should look? :)
[01:44] <Tibmol> adaptr : how can i read the log file on console ?
[01:44] <adaptr> !vaio
[01:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about vaio - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:44] <Rio> nekr0z how would i verify?  im downloading it from the ubuntu website
[01:44] <davidgw7> did you edit xorg to read nvidia in the device cection?
[01:44] <adaptr> Tibmol: I just told you
[01:44] <Hellevator_> davejustdave, i don't know then.  that was my only guess :-/
[01:44] <davejustdave> tnx hell
[01:44] <nekr0z> You need to calculate MD5 sum of your ISO (don't know how to do it in Windows, sorry), and then check if it's the same as Ubuntu.com says on download page.
[01:44] <adaptr> davidgw7: the nvidia driver installer takes care of all that
[01:44] <ubuntu> Xzenome: in this last web site that i give they say too how to configure
[01:44] <nekr0z> Rio: You need to calculate MD5 sum of your ISO (don't know how to do it in Windows, sorry), and then check if it's the same as Ubuntu.com says on download page.
[01:44] <coreymon77> my sound isnt working
[01:44] <Tibmol> adaptr : write me the comment plz...
[01:45] <adaptr> Tibmol: what comment ? you have gotten plenty of comments here
[01:45] <Dr_willis> theres a few md5sum tools for windows - that give a 'check md5sum' - on the right click menus
[01:45] <Rio> nekr0z okay thanks mang... ill look up how to do it on line....
[01:45] <davidgw7> ah you used the drivers from nvidia's site ok
[01:45] <watson540> Hi I just got this new dual core amd64 laptop, runnig 686 version of ubuntu edgy, i was wondering can i just switch to the smp kernel and it actually use both processors or do i need the 64 bit os for that?
[01:45] <justdave> speaking of usplash, anyone know how to make it work in Parallels?
[01:45] <coreymon77> can anyone help me with ym sound
[01:45] <adaptr> Tibmol: is there something wrong with your IRC client ? scroll back up, look for your own nick, and do what it says
[01:45] <ubuntu_> What should I use to start learning Python?
[01:45] <Hirvinen> watson540: Using an smp kernel is sufficient.
[01:45] <vox754> Alex, I think you can set shortcuts with "gnome-keybinding-properties"
[01:45] <Tibmol> adaptr : just want this ?xxxxxxx? xorg.0.log
[01:46] <cafuegr> ubuntu_: `diveintopython' - which is already installed.
[01:46] <Alex> Thanks vox754
[01:46] <Tibmol> adaptr : what should i type to read it ?
[01:46] <adaptr> Tibmol: I have no clue, sorry
[01:46] <watson540> Hirvinen: thanks for youjr reply i will try that
[01:46] <Tibmol> nonody knows ?
[01:46] <cafuegr> ubuntu_: Open /usr/share/doc/diveintopython/html/toc/index.html in your favourite web browser and enjoy.
[01:47] <tehxed> gyaresu: Anyone respond with a log in the time I was afk?
[01:47] <adaptr> watson540: Edgy does not, actually, have a " 686" version - or an SMP one, for that matter - they are one and the same: "generic"
[01:47] <JR302GT> adaptr:  strace ./server-bin spit out a lot of stuff.  Should I post it here or IM?  I was using root in other versions of Linux.
[01:47] <watson540> adaptr: right, i sturggled on how to word it, in any case im looking for the smp kernelnow
[01:47] <adaptr> JR302GT: if you were using root in other versions of Linux then the best you could do is enable the root account, but I would not normally recommend that - better SUID the server binary
[01:48] <watson540> adaptr: oh i missed all of what you said....
[01:48] <gyaresu> tehxed: no.
[01:48] <Tibmol> vox754 : will u help me about xserver ?
[01:48] <watson540> adaptr: so i still thinking im only running on core though
[01:48] <gyaresu> Anyone got a log for this channel longer than the last 24hrs? Please.
[01:48] <fsbp> hi all
[01:48] <adaptr> watson540: there is no smp kernel - unless you're still running the installer's 386 kernel, you already have an SMP-enabled kernel
[01:48] <ubuntu_> How do I access DiveIntoPython?
[01:48] <watson540> adaptr: even though at boot it looks like it integrates them at one i still get a reported clock speed of 1.8 ghz when it should be x2
[01:48] <Hirvinen> watson540: Although I think as of Edgy there is no separate kernel for SMP and the default kernel supports it.
[01:48] <crazy_bus> I'm using kubuntu but for some reason all gtk apps have rectangles instead of letters.  What should I do?  here is a screenshot http://img135.imageshack.us/my.php?image=numberic4.jpg
[01:48] <Jowi> watson540, the generic kernel is smp capable
[01:48] <Quintin> adaptr: -generic is smp
[01:48] <vox754> Tibmol, what's up?
[01:48] <adaptr> watson540: cat /proc/cpuinfo return one CPU only ?
[01:48] <JR302GT> adaptr:  What is the command for that?
[01:48] <fsbp> hey im having some big troubles cause im a big noob at linux
[01:48] <adaptr> Quintin: -enabled, yes
[01:48] <Quintin> http://daecom.biz/paste/  w00t
[01:49] <adaptr> Quintin: please read everything next time :)
[01:49] <ompaul> gyaresu,  http://people.ubuntu.com/~fabbione/irclogs
[01:49] <watson540> adaptr: nope..nevermind i see it now, duh :)
[01:49] <gyaresu> ompaul: rocking! thanks. tehxed ^^
[01:49] <fsbp> hey my admin tools aren't working, as soon as i open it, it quits after about 20 seconds of trying
[01:50] <fsbp> any suggestions?
[01:50] <vox754> fsbp, what admin tools?
[01:50] <davejustdave> can anyone help me get both channels working for my speakers? worked fine with windows OS now with ubuntu only right works
[01:50] <jrib> fsbp: run them in a terminal and look for meaningful output
[01:50] <Quintin> ompaul: I hope that server is using gzip
[01:50] <fsbp> good idea
[01:50] <Jowi> watson540, "htop" is rather nice. you will see clearly the load on the different cores
[01:50] <Quintin> davejustdave: run alsamixer in a terminal
[01:50] <mqueiros> Is there any tool to easy configure samba on ubuntu ?
[01:50] <fsbp> oh and something else, i have a secured wireless network and its not working at all even when admin tools were working
[01:51] <Quintin> mqueiros: yea.  vi /etc/samba/smb.conf
[01:51] <mqueiros> quintin: ok... other than that one ? :)
[01:51] <ericrost> I came up with a dumb fix to get the livecd working, I plugged a CRT monitor into the second head of the video card, it booted with X mirrored on both heads :)
[01:51] <vox754> d00d, we were just talking about you, how your nick spell backwards is p00p, but you already knew that...
[01:51] <HP> #ubuntu-se
[01:52] <d00d> lol vox754
[01:52] <fsbp> i have a secured wireless network and its not working at all even when admin tools were working
[01:52] <davejustdave> quinton                 running alsamixer ummmm now what ?
[01:52] <HP> #ubuntu-se
[01:52] <adaptr> Jowi: normal top will do fine, too - but htop is nice overall, although it does have one annoying inconsistency (with top - which is death-sentence-worthy on *nix)
[01:52] <Quintin> davejustdave: Look at your settings.. do you have same numbers on left and right for your speaker output?  also, check your speaker cables
[01:53] <fsbp> i have a secured wireless network and its not working at all even when admin tools were working, any help anyone?
[01:53] <Quintin> mqueiros: no.  just edit the conf file.  it's not hard..
[01:53] <Quintin> mqueiros: What do you want, specifically?  I can help you with it perhaps.
[01:53] <vox754> fsbp, what are these admin tools you comment on?
[01:53] <clusty> i am trying to build something from a CVS repository and after I do a autoreconf I get a error message: aclocal:configure.ac:49: warning: macro `AM_GLIB_GNU_GETTEXT' not found in library

[01:53] <clusty> ideas?
[01:53] <nekr0z> fsbp: Is SSID broadcasted or hidden?
[01:54] <clusty> jrib, sorry
[01:54] <Quintin> clusty: http://daecom.biz/paste/ :D
[01:54] <fsbp> i think they're called administration tools or something next to preferences
[01:54] <ubuntu_> Where do I start in Python?
[01:54] <davejustdave> it is a graphic that shows "master" 00 at 29 then onther thas reads "master" mm at zero

[01:54] <slacher> Hi, I am a new ubuntu user and I have problem making my CD rom drive work. Can anybody help me ?
[01:54] <fsbp> nekr0x: i think its broadcasted
[01:54] <jrib> davejustdave: q raises left, w raises right
[01:55] <Quintin> mqueiros: the other thing is 'SWAT', but you have to use inetd for that (ick)
[01:55] <clusty> there: http://daecom.biz/paste/?q=9
[01:55] <ubuntu_> Anyone?
[01:55] <tehxed> gyaresu: Which day did he tell me? (All days have been a blur for me lately, I've not slept in 2 ..3 days now)
[01:55] <nekr0z> fsbp: I would advise installing network-manager-gnome then and see if it can discover the network.
[01:55] <mqueiros> Quintin: yes... that's it... SWAT... VI will be enough ! :)
[01:56] <clusty> ubuntu: you just do "python"
[01:56] <clusty> :D
[01:56] <slacher> It says "mount: special device /dev/hdb does not exist"

[01:56] <davejustdave> jrib            ok both channels are same  the master mm must be somehting else still only right channell has sound z(yes my cables are plugged in)
[01:56] <fsbp> ok, but add/remove programs wasn't working great either, but ill give it a try
[01:56] <adaptr> Tibmol: and ?

[01:57] <gyaresu> tehxed: I'm searching now...
[01:57] <Tibmol> adaptr : it is working just i want to share it with you
[01:57] <ardchoille> slacher: Are you sure your cd drive isn't /dev/hdc or /dev/hdd ?
[01:57] <adaptr> timstokman: edgy? nvidia card # ?
[01:57] <clusty> cafuegr: it sais failed with code 1 :D
[01:57] <adaptr> Tibmol: yes, congratulations
[01:57] <timstokman> adaptr: yes
[01:57] <slacher> ardchoille, i have no idea how can i know that ??
[01:57] <timstokman> on edgy
[01:57] <Quintin> ericrost: I have 'janus' (hyperthreading desktop) 'helios' (server) 'sonitus' (music server) 'navigo' (firewall / gateway) 'aros' (fileserver) :)
[01:57] <Tibmol> have good night or what on there :)
[01:58] <vox754> Tibmol, thank me
[01:58] <n0ize> ok boot off live cd, mount / partition of what SHOULD be booting. edit grub. Grub makes no sense of my dirves and doens't list all of them. How can i reconcile a difference between how the installer sees my drives and how they show up when it tries to boot?
[01:58] <jrib> clusty: you have gettext installed?
[01:58] <cafuegr> clusty: Might be as simple as installing a different automake version.
[01:58] <tehxed> gyaresu: wait a minute
[01:58] <tehxed> gyaresu: this is for xubuntu
[01:58] <ericrost> where would be a good place to put that tip for intel 950 GMA's with this chipset, just a forum post? (if X is bombing saying that it can't find a Video BIOS mode for any selected depth
[01:58] <timstokman> gforce 7900 GT
[01:58] <ericrost> I just plugged a CRT monitor into the other head (it was a widescreen LCD on the laptop)
[01:59] <clusty> jrib, yes sir
[01:59] <ardchoille> slacher: cat /etc/fstab
[01:59] <vox754> adaptr, unbelievable, this Tibmol guy didn't thank me...
[01:59] <GenNMX> Grrr, X is not detecting my USB mouse plugged in directly or through the USB share switch
[01:59] <adaptr> vox754: wahahaha u sux0rz, and I r0x0rz - l33t! :)
[02:00] <jrib> clusty: you have libglib2.0-dev?

[02:00] <tns> Has anyone got Gaim-OTR working in Gaim2.0.0b5 under Edgy?
[02:00] <ardchoille> slacher: Typically, /dev/hda and /dev/hdb are the first and second hard drives.. /dev/hdc and /dev/hdd are the first and second cd/dvd drives.
[02:00] <vox754> ericrost, definitely a forum post.
[02:00] <eck> n0ize: /boot/grub/device.map
[02:00] <ardchoille> slacher: And the system is saying /dev/hdb doesn't exist?
[02:01] <eck> i think there is also a device command in grub

[02:01] <megafauna> Hi, where is the startup icon for Beagle?
[02:01] <clusty> jrib: nope :D. just installed it. trying now to see whats the deal

[02:01] <timstokman> could someone help me with my problem: nvidia drivers on edgy eft with 7900GT BSODS
[02:01] <timstokman> please
[02:02] <GenNMX> ardchoille: /dev/hda is the first IDE master, hdb the slave, /dev/hdc is the second IDE master, hdd the slave. I use Ubuntu and this holds true for me.
[02:02] <n0ize> eck: that gives me 3 drives, in a grub prompt a root (TAB gives me 4. i have 7, one of those ISN"T in a array
[02:02] <nytejade`mb> Is there a way to boot Ubuntu in a "safe mode"
[02:02] <n0ize> and none of the ones listed in the map are the one that is my OS drive.
[02:02] <ardchoille> GenNMX: Yes, that's a better way of saying it.
[02:02] <jrib> nytejade`mb: what do you mean by "safe mode"?  Maybe "recovery mode" which is an option at the grub prompt?
[02:02] <ardchoille> slacher: Is your cd drive plugged in and working?
[02:02] <GenNMX> nytejade`mb: Hit ESC quickly when grub is loading.
[02:02] <eck> n0ize: you might be able to manually add them, but if grub isn't seeing them then you might be out of luck
[02:02] <nytejade`mb> i'm using lilo
[02:03] <nytejade`mb> and getting kernel panic
[02:03] <nytejade`mb> I'm assuming I might need to mount the drive using a live cd or something
[02:03] <slacher> my computer is an Aopen mp945-X, i might be specific
[02:03] <nytejade`mb> Suggestions?
[02:03] <n0ize> odd, cuz my OS drive isn't on an ide controler and showed up as hde while doing the install and shows up as hdm when i boot a live cd
[02:03] <slacher> yes it is working, i installed ubuntu from it, and when i insert a cd, i can hear it working
[02:03] <clusty> jrib: works
[02:03] <clusty> :d
[02:03] <clusty> thanx
[02:04] <linuxgoober> can someone tell me what is wrong with my grub configuration? http://pastebin.ca/370991
[02:04] <GenNMX> slacher: Is your CD-ROM drive on the same cable as your hard drive, or does it have its own cable?
[02:04] <ericrost> fyi if anyone's looking for a new budget lappy, circuit city is selling a decent gateway for $700 that's the weird new intel that's in between the celeron and the core duo (dual core, but 1 Meg L2 Cache) 1 Gig DDR2 RAM, 100 Gig 5400 RPM SATA HDD, and the Intel 950 GMA video chipset.. I thought it was a pretty damn good deal
[02:04] <ardchoille> slacher: Insert a cd and type: mount   and see where it's being mounted, if at all.
[02:04] <vox754> ericrost, and it supports Ubuntu right?

[02:05] <eck> n0ize: that should be fine -- you just need the correct root= option on the kernel line
[02:05] <ubuntu> !mnt
[02:05] <TashKavarish> hi
[02:05] <ubuntu> what was the command for mount
[02:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mnt - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:05] <Arafangion> ericrost: Extra shiny, eh?
[02:05] <scan_> Hello
[02:05] <ericrost> vox754: well, we'll see I guess, if it doesn't it'll support gentoo real soon :)
[02:05] <ubuntu> !mount
[02:05] <TashKavarish> anyone happen to know why changing monitor would make some resolutions dissapear?
[02:05] <slacher> gennmx, well actually they are not connected on cable, but a card that is pluged in the mini itx motherboard, and yes they are on the same card
[02:05] <ericrost> vox754: Ubuntu is installing right now

[02:06] <vox754> ericrost, oh. You better promote sure stuff.
[02:06] <ubuntu> what partition program  i want for mount
[02:06] <n0ize> will try that
[02:06] <eck> the actual device name used by linux is only important to the kernel to load the root filesystem, it doesn't matter to grub whatsoever
[02:06] <ubuntu> sudo mount file.iso where
[02:06] <TashKavarish> this is a 1920x1200 monitor which used to work fine with this, i had a 1440x900 monitor for a while, now putting back the 1920x1200 one the highest res i can pick is 1600x1200
[02:06] <ubuntu> is this was that or no.
[02:06] <nutterpc_> TashKavarish: because the other monitor you are using doesn't support the higher resolutions the previous one you were using did
[02:06] <ericrost> Arafangion: yeah, I'm pretty happy with it, I've got Ubuntu on my desktops (both a few years old so no real issues getting it running

[02:11] <slacher> thank you ardchoille, i will try that. the problem is, the when i open the box, the hdd and cdrom are stuck on the cover, while the motherboard is on the base. And it's only when i close it, that they plug in each other and i cannot control is the plug is correct.

[02:13] <eck> reinstalling grub, that is
[02:13] <TashKavarish> its in xorg.conf but it wont let me use it

[02:14] <The_Belgain> quick question - is anyone here using the soundconverter program?
[02:14] <The_Belgain> when i try to use it to convert to VBR MP3, it produced MP3 files which report incorrect length and bitrate
[02:14] <The_Belgain> is this a known issue?
[02:14] <ardchoille> scan_: did you run sudo apt-get install -f ?
[02:14] <n0ize> eck: yeah, well i'll be honest with ya, me and grub don't get along very well. just drives me nuts that the installer saw my OS drive as one thing and the live cd sees it as another.
[02:14] <scan_> when I do the"sudo apt-get install -f" it returns with " Removing hot-babe ...

[02:19] <Reuben> Hi had a question regarding dual booting
[02:20] <purem> shoot
[02:20] <ubuntu> .
[02:20] <ubuntu> .
[02:20] <ardchoille> !canonical
[02:20] <Reuben> will be switching from xp to a dual boot with ubuntu edgy
[02:20] <ubotu> Canonical Ltd. is committed to the development, distribution and promotion of open source software products, and to providing tools and support to the open source community. It is the driving force behind the Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Edubuntu Operating Systems. Canonical's website is at http://www.canonical.com/
[02:20] <IndyGunFreak> Reuben: ask your questions on one line, theres so muich traffic, its hard to follow multiple lines
[02:20] <Reuben> how do i make sure both systems can access the same files eg music videos n docs
[02:21] <ardchoille> jrib: Correction, I may remember seeing hot-babe in the canonical or seveas repos, but I  remember it was a repo.
[02:21] <n0ize> Reuben, you should be able to mount your ntfs partitions just find if you use ntfs-3g (if thats in ubuntu)
[02:22] <TashKavarish> this pc was on a 1920x1200 monitor, for a while I had it on a 2nd monitor at 1440x900 instead, now I put back the 1920x1200 monitor but the 1920x1200 res is no longer available (it is still in xorg.conf) how do i get it back ?
[02:22] <ardchoille> jrib: It's a CPU load status meter type app.
[02:22] <purem> efty should be able to read ntfs partitions out of the box
[02:22] <nandovieira> hi... how do I get the UUID from a partition?
[02:22] <purem> although I think they will be read only.
[02:22] <Reuben> alright so i dont need to put all the docs on a separate partition
[02:22] <jrib> ardchoille: I've used it, just curious where the deb was coming from
[02:22] <Zero9983> any movie player can play rm o rmvb file?
[02:22] <eck> nandovieira: vol_id
[02:22] <n0ize> Reuben: if reading is all you want,no
[02:23] <purem> Reuben: to read them no
[02:23] <eck> next time read the man pages
[02:23] <Reuben> last time i had to use knoppix to get past xp security when i tried a dual boot.................i want read/write access to the data
[02:23] <pearism> stupid UUID's and drive order issues! :/
[02:23] <tritium> eck: It wouldn't be clear to him which man page to read, necessarily
[02:24] <eck> then he should use apropos or man -k
[02:24] <n0ize> Reuben: ntfs-3g should do it, you'll have to check if theres a ubuntu package for it.
[02:24] <ardchoille> jrib: Ah, ok
[02:24] <scan_> I don't remember were I did found it but I had problems with it and saw it in the package manger and tried to remove it and I have had this error since
[02:24] <purem> Reuben: then you need to install some libraries that allow you to write to NTFS partitions
[02:24] <eck> i think the help tool comes with a grpahical search tool for the man pages too
[02:24] <purem> i'm not sure what they are off hand, but someone here should know

[02:28] <SanDayGoDom> I missed that install page /ref
[02:28] <chris> jrib, no real answers
[02:28] <jrib> chris: k, just makling sure you knew of the resource
[02:28] <eck> nandovieira: before or after the kernel mounts /?
[02:29] <bengt_> I've got wlan issues. A netgear usb dongle won't mount on wlan0 .. i've run ndiswrapper and prism2_usb guides, still wlan0 can't be found
[02:29] <chris> jrib, yeah i can get it to start without any problem, but it keeps saying it cant find my serial code, which i cant figure out how to transfer from windows, even with registry edits and stufgfs
[02:29] <vox754> bengt_, it could be named differently, like "eth1"
[02:30] <bengt_> vox754: i've tried them all. only eth0 which is cable is listed
[02:30] <vox754> bengt_, chipset? ndiswrapper version?
[02:30] <eck> if it can mount / then you have to edit /etc/fstab, it if can't mount / you need to change the root= parameter on the grub kernel line
[02:30] <bengt_> vox754: i tried to reinstall ndiswrapper but i'm getting a compilatin error on make which google won't help me with
[02:30] <eck> if you can't tell, change grub to not boot with splash and not suppress kernel messages
[02:31] <eck> you can also just skip the uuid nonsense
[02:31] <bengt_> vox754: it's a ma111 from netgear, ndiswrapper latest stable from sourceforge

[02:32] <IndyGunFreak> videocall?
[02:32] <Reuben> like skypes videocall

[02:33] <vox754> bengt_, I assume you have searched the ndiswrapper List for your device, so I don't think I know better than you.
[02:33] <linuxloser_> anyone have experience installing beryl on edgy eft?
[02:33] <eck> skype is also an option
[02:34] <bengt_> vox754: if you mean ndiswrapper -l, than yes. but it only says driver is present, not hw

[02:36] <Reuben> siavash: try linux-on-laptops might have guides on the distro for your model
[02:36] <linuxloser_> then i searched up guides
[02:36] <siavash> ok
[02:36] <linuxloser_> tried to get the gpg key and i couldnt find it
[02:36] <IndyGunFreak> linuxloser_, what type of video card?
[02:36] <vox754> bengt_, Yep, that's what I mean, follow the suggestions from those guys on the List. You may even try older versions of ndiswrapper.
[02:37] <linuxloser_> ati
[02:37] <ubernub> can anyone help me uninstall ubuntu?
[02:37] <linuxloser_> i ran envy to install it
[02:37] <Reuben> siavash: model?
[02:37] <bengt_> maybe someone can help me with a compilation error in ndiswrapper..? make: *** arch/i386/boot: File or dir not found. Stopping.
[02:37] <siavash> reuben: its wierd because almost all distros work, except ubuntu, the CD wont even load into it
[02:37] <Braille> if you had nvidia i could help you out, sorry matey
[02:37] <linuxloser_> laaaame

[02:37] <siavash> its a fujitsu P series
[02:37] <linuxloser_> ati
[02:37] <IndyGunFreak> yeah, i never got it to work with ATI
[02:37] <SanDayGoDom> I am reading this page
[02:37] <SanDayGoDom> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation
[02:37] <SanDayGoDom> now where does it say how to intall ubutu from a live cd
[02:38] <eck> siavash: did you try the alternate install cd?
[02:38] <transgress_> anyone know how i add a daap share to rhythmbox?
[02:38] <darkch1ld> what's a good utility for encrypting files?
[02:38] <Reuben> so why not go with another distro? i'm going to install ubuntu coz my wifi works on it
[02:38] <linuxloser_> guess ill just end up using my linux lappy for chatting heh
[02:38] <vox754> ubernub, You don't uninstall it, just install another OS on top of it.
[02:38] <eck> darkch1ld: gpg
[02:38] <Reuben> siavash: exact mdel number
[02:38] <jrib> scan_: can you pastebin the error too?
[02:39] <siavash> A3040 Fujitsu
[02:39] <siavash> Ive installed opensuse, fedora, mandriva
[02:39] <scan_> ok
[02:39] <siavash> i just liked ubuntu the best. Plus i did here wifi is good on it
[02:40] <vox754> siavash, how is mandriva? I'd like to try it. I tried SUSE 10.1, now they are on 10.2 I think.
[02:40] <eck> siavash: you have a bunch of options. alternate install cd is what i would try first, otherwise you can copy the contents ot he ISO onto another partition and use grub to boot off the cd's kernel and load up the cd environment
[02:40] <Reuben> siavash: i got some ideas for my laptop from here http://www.linux-on-laptops.com/fujitsu.html
[02:40] <heydaveTX> here can i find shock wave
[02:40] <nazgul> evening. what is the name of the libgnome debug package on Ubuntu 6.10 ?
[02:41] <siavash> Mandriva is a good, i liked it
[02:41] <IndyGunFreak> shockwave?.. is that even out for Linux
[02:41] <heydaveTX> or how can i install shockwave
[02:41] <eck> afaik there is no shockwave for linux
[02:41] <siavash> i might switch back if i cant get this too work out. Its really wierd though, xubuntu works but not any other ones
[02:41] <siavash> which doesnt make sense
[02:41] <heydaveTX> or flash play
[02:41] <IndyGunFreak> siavash, mandriva is awful
[02:42] <heydaveTX> for  for firefox
[02:42] <IndyGunFreak> heydaveTX, you can install macromedia flash,is that what you want?..
[02:42] <siavash> Yeah, im pretty much stuck on ubuntu
[02:42] <siavash> I like debian
[02:42] <heydaveTX> yes indygunfreak
[02:42] <IndyGunFreak> debian rocks.
[02:42] <heydaveTX> thats what i want
[02:42] <n0ize> call me crazy, but i could have sworn that your hd(a-z) info shouldn't change if you don't move where it's plugged in.
[02:42] <Jstuts5797> Ok.... I got it to work
[02:42] <IndyGunFreak> heydaveTX, hang on
[02:42] <heydaveTX> ok
[02:42] <wikipedia_sucks> sudo aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree
[02:42] <wikipedia_sucks> sudo update-flashplugin
[02:42] <lastnode> siavash, likes/dislikes can be discussed in #ubuntu-offtopic, mate. this channel is for support
[02:42] <Jstuts5797> this is....wow....different
[02:43] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, why does Mandriva suck?
[02:43] <IndyGunFreak> vox754, SLOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
[02:43] <siavash> Reuben, my laptop isnt on there :(
[02:43] <Jstuts5797> Is there any kind of tour of Ubuntu once you install it?
[02:43] <IndyGunFreak> i read war and peace while loading up opera one time
[02:43] <siavash> All i get when i load the ubuntu install CD is a peach background and a mouse
[02:44] <wikipedia_sucks> siavash, try doing ctrl+alt+backspace when that happens
[02:44] <nexousNET> How do I setup my WPC54G linksys card up in 6.06?
[02:44] <wikipedia_sucks> and let it reload gnome
[02:44] <IndyGunFreak> siavash,   http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy#How_to_install_Flash_Player_.28Macromedia_Flash.29_Plug-in_for_Mozilla_Firefox
[02:44] <john> in metacity, can I bind a global key to a mouse button?
[02:44] <wikipedia_sucks> that happens to me as well most of the time, but it works if you restart X
[02:44] <siavash> restarting x
[02:44] <heydaveTX> what is the command for flash
[02:44] <IndyGunFreak> oops, siavash, that asn't for you
[02:44] <AMD-> sweet Jesus look at what i have just found http://ubuntustudio.com/
[02:44] <IndyGunFreak> heydaveTX, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy#How_to_install_Flash_Player_.28Macromedia_Flash.29_Plug-in_for_Mozilla_Firefox
[02:44] <IndyGunFreak> follow those instructions
[02:44] <wikipedia_sucks> sudo aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree
[02:44] <wikipedia_sucks> sudo update-flashplugin
[02:45] <tomas_> how can i play .asf in ubuntu
[02:45] <siavash> wikipedia_sucks, it restarts x, but same screen
[02:45] <siavash> i obvoiusly didnt have a login, so ubuntu logged me in
[02:45] <IndyGunFreak> well, obviously something is wrong
[02:45] <wikipedia_sucks> siavash, do you have a hyperthreading processor?
[02:45] <SanDayGoDom> Ok anyone have a page that will show me how to install ubutu on a windows machine from a live cd and still leave some room for windows?
[02:45] <scan_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7436/ thanks for the help!
[02:45] <IndyGunFreak> SanDayGoDom, Google Dual booting
[02:45] <siavash> Anyway to install in text mode of the cd?
[02:45] <wikipedia_sucks> you might just try rebooting the live cd once or twice, and trying to restart X...it works for me just great once it finally loads the live cd
[02:46] <siavash> wikipedia, im not sure what that is. i have amd turion64
[02:46] <TrickFinlay2> can you have an SSL FTP server using ubuntu?
[02:46] <Jstuts5797> wow...this is nice...
[02:46] <Jstuts5797> this is my first time using ubuntu....right now.
[02:46] <transgress_> TrickFinlay2: why not use sftp?
[02:46] <ubernub> im about to uninstall ubuntu
[02:46] <n0ize> HDM (13th drive) when booting from live cd with ide cards, HDE (5th drive) during install/rescue, and HDA (1st drive) with ide cards removed. so if i tell grub that it needs to look on hd(14,0) and the root is /dev/hdm1 life should be peachy till i disconnect my cd drive?
[02:46] <transgress_> ubernub: okay
[02:47] <transgress_> ubernub: have fun with that.
[02:47] <TrickFinlay2> transgress: what would be the difference/advantage?
[02:47] <heydaveTX> i can't find flash plugin
[02:47] <ubernub> yeah, i dont even know how
[02:47] <heydaveTX> help
[02:47] <IndyGunFreak> heydaveTX, did you follow the instructions on the link i gave you?
[02:47] <wikipedia_sucks> daveTX, type sudo aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree in the terminal
[02:47] <heydaveTX> not
[02:47] <transgress_> TrickFinlay2: sftp is part of ssh, available by default if you have an ssh server, and it would be on port 22... and by far easier to implement
[02:47] <heydaveTX> no
[02:47] <heydaveTX> i didn't get them
[02:47] <IndyGunFreak> well, i gav eyou a link showing you how tod o it
[02:47] <IndyGunFreak> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy#How_to_install_Flash_Player_.28Macromedia_Flash.29_Plug-in_for_Mozilla_Firefox

[02:49] <ubotu> nexousNET: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[02:49] <vox754> nexousNET, you need to specify version for the card look at this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=324967

[02:50] <transgress_> IndyGunFreak: one is my desktop and one is my laptop

[02:50] <Spartacus> And when I use the "su" command, it gives me an authentication failure

[02:52] <chairmeleon> hahah :D
[02:52] <vox754> siavash, you need the alternate CD or DVD
[02:52] <lastnode> siavash, alternate cd has text mode
[02:52] <chairmeleon> Gee I must say the climate in this channel is damn much nicer than that of suse's
[02:52] <Eyra> ok. im reading the page right now
[02:52] <elkbuntu> chairmeleon, take a peek in #ubuntu+1
[02:53] <siavash> nice, i will try that
[02:53] <lastnode> siavash, if that disk has OEM, it should have text only mode too
[02:53] <transgress_> ubernub: set up ndiswrapper... get the windows driver for your wifi card, and i'll give you a link on how to do it
[02:53] <lastnode> Eyra, have a read, try it out, and let us know

[02:54] <ubernub> okay, thank you
[02:55] <transgress_> go down to the edgy part if you are running edgy
[02:55] <tehxed> gyaresu:  Did you send me PM?
[02:55] <Arafangion> lufis: Ogle has better support for subtitles.
[02:55] <Hasrat_USA> Spartacus: are you using KDE or GNOME?
[02:55] <lufis> Arafangion: ah
[02:55] <tehxed> gyaresu: ah!
[02:55] <gyaresu> tehxed: nope.
[02:55] <Arafangion> lufis: Also supports more DVD's, somehow more compatible.
[02:55] <flyinflash> why local user couldn't  login?
[02:55] <lufis> Arafangion: oh, ok. i just liked vlc
[02:55] <gyaresu> tehxed: I thought something was wrong. I've posted that about 4 differendt times :)
[02:55] <Spartacus> Hasrat, not sure, but I'd venture a guess at gnome
[02:55] <Arafangion> lufis: So do I :(
[02:55] <Hasrat_USA> lmao
[02:55] <tehxed> gyaresu: Sorry.. =(
[02:56] <Spartacus> Only had Ubuntu for less than a week :(
[02:56] <gyaresu> tehxed: S'aight. Just didn't know _what_ was going on.
[02:56] <Hasrat_USA> okay anyways open up your Add/Remove application and install Java runtime from there
[02:56] <Spartacus> oh, lol
[02:56] <Hasrat_USA> you don't have to download the ones from the site
[02:56] <Spartacus> thanks >.>
[02:57] <Hasrat_USA> i've been running Linux for 2 and half weeks
[02:57] <Xerocide> When I put the CD in the drive and restart my computer it just goes to a black screen, any suggestions?
[02:57] <Hasrat_USA> which CD?
[02:57] <lufis> Xerocide: try the alternate installer
[02:57] <Xerocide> Well, I am just trying to run a live CD.
[02:58] <ubernub> "couldnt find package ndiswrapper"
[02:58] <siavash> im downloading feisty fawn, i noticed that torrent isnt downloading...
[02:58] <siavash> anyone else experience problems with that
[02:58] <TrickFinlay2> siavash just give it time
[02:59] <Spartacus> Xerocide, you mean boot from the CD?
[02:59] <Xerocide> Yes.
[02:59] <lastnode> siavash, which torrent? if you're accidentally getting an old herd, it will be slow, less seeders
[02:59] <lastnode> siavash, is this herd4?
[02:59] <wikipedia_sucks> siavish, how many people are you connected to?
[02:59] <wikipedia_sucks> even the newest herd is slow
[02:59] <Spartacus> Did you go into the boot menu to boot from it?
[02:59] <siavash> lastnode: herd 3
[02:59] <wikipedia_sucks> if you do it via http, it downloads in ~40 minutes
[02:59] <Xerocide> It won't even come up.
[02:59] <Spartacus> the boot menu won't?
[02:59] <Xerocide> Even when I don't have the CD in.
[03:00] <tehxed> gyaresu: afk a bit. going to get some food in me.
[03:00] <Xerocide> Is there a chance I disabled it or something...?
[03:00] <chairmeleon> does anyone here know, if there are ubuntu packages for tcl/tk8.5a and amsn 0.96 compiled against them??
[03:00] <slyfox> I use this program and it has to be run via Terminal:  xtightvncviewer 192.168.1.7      this is the program to remotley connect to windows. Is there any way to make like an executable bin bash or soemthing so that I can click on it and it will do it automatically ?
[03:00] <siavash> wikipedia_sucks: ill try that
[03:00] <Spartacus> Dunno, I was just checking for the only thing I'd know how to help with
[03:00] <almostkorean> hey ive got a question about installing ubuntu on my powerbook
[03:00] <transgress_> ubernub: pm me once you get ndiswrapper kicking.  if you need help installing the drivers or anything let me know
[03:00] <lufis> Xerocide: can you give a step-by-step sequence of what happens? what key do you press, etc.
[03:01] <ubernub> "couldnt find package ndiswrapper"
[03:01] <Xerocide> Well, normally I think it's F10 for the boot menu on my computer, but it hasn't come up recently.
[03:01] <lastnode> siavash, herd 4 is out. id grab that
[03:01] <siavash> i might as well get 4 though
[03:01] <siavash> yeah
[03:01] <lufis> Xerocide: hmm
[03:01] <Hasrat_USA> almostkorean: you want us to guess the question?
[03:01] <almostkorean> haha sorry hold on
[03:01] <almostkorean> umm
[03:01] <siavash> lastnode: is it pretty easy upgrading it?

[03:01] <siavash> when it gets launched that is
[03:01] <elgolden> RAOF: hi , it still doznt work
[03:01] <pearism> I have a duel Xenon CPUs/MultiThreded system and I have just installed ubuntu. I'm confused...does the generic Kernel support multi thread/duel CPUs or do I need to install the special SMP version of the kernel?
[03:02] <varsendaggr> hey i need to run a cli program and have it change the names of the output and go into about 7 different folders  how should i do this?
[03:02] <almostkorean> i try to do the "install to biggest free space"
[03:02] <lastnode> siavash, from herd3 -> herd4? oh yes, it's just apt-get upgrade
[03:02] <almostkorean> and it gives me an error
[03:02] <iulian_> Hi, I get an error when trying to install ISPConfig: ERROR: The PHP binary coming with ISPConfig does not work properly on your system!
[03:02] <Hasrat_USA> what error?
[03:02] <siavash> lastnode: apt-get upgrade scares me :)
[03:02] <iulian_> You know something about it?
[03:02] <Hasrat_USA> almostkorean: what error?
[03:02] <james296> ok, is it possible to remove my Windows Vista partition and have Ubuntu use my entire HD space without having to reinstall Ubuntu?
[03:02] <almostkorean> soo i tried to do it manually and i cant partition up my main partition
[03:02] <ubernub> transgress, it says it couldnt find package ndiswrapper
[03:02] <siavash> lastnode: but this is my play laptop anyways
[03:03] <lufis> james296: yes, just delete the windows partition in gparted or the like
[03:03] <james296> because since Windows Vista doesnt show up in the grub menu, its wasting SO much space
[03:03] <Hasrat_USA> as soon as my mic works in ubuntu i'm gonna ditch XP for once and for all
[03:03] <lastnode> siavash, apt-get upgrade hardly ever fails, and if it does, it does so gracefully
[03:03] <almostkorean> the "new" button is greyed out when i select the main partition
[03:03] <james296> but Im unable to resize the partition after that...
[03:03] <iulian_> so, no one knows why I get ERROR: The PHP binary coming with ISPConfig does not work properly on your system! during the instalation of ISPConfig?
[03:03] <pearism> hello! I have a duel Xenon CPUs/MultiThreded system and I have just installed ubuntu. I'm confused...does the generic Kernel support multi thread/duel CPUs or do I need to install the special SMP version of the kernel?
[03:03] <IndyGunFreak> lastnode, lol, gracefully failing?
[03:03] <siavash> lastnode: i had a problem with samba dieing after i upgraded libc to 2.4. there was a patch but i had no idea how to apply it
[03:03] <lufis> james296: create a new one in windows' place and format it ext3 or whatever you prefer, it will be usable by ubuntu
[03:03] <almostkorean> is there some app i can use in osx to make a free partition on my hard drive?
[03:04] <Xerocide> So is there a reason my boot menu isn't showing up when I turn on my computer...?
[03:04] <transgress_> iulian_: because the binary coming with ISPconfig didn't work properly?
[03:04] <cryedwolf> hey
[03:04] <lufis> Xerocide: i don't know, it sounds like it's not ubuntu's fault if *nothing* will show up. sounds like a bios issue
[03:04] <thserhaaerhh> hi all - i'm trying to set up my first ever linux so i'm completely clueless - anyone willing to help?
[03:04] <IndyGunFreak> thserhaaerhh, just ask your question
[03:04] <iulian_> transgress: Yes, that is the error. I use Ubuntu 6.10, server
[03:04] <james296> what if I delete the Windows partiton already?
[03:04] <thserhaaerhh> i've done the install but I only get a text UI
[03:05] <Xerocide> Yeah, I know it's not Ubuntu's fault, I haven't got it working yet...I need the boot menu to show up before I can instlal Unbuntu...
[03:05] <lufis> james296: doesn't matter, if you don't want it just delete it. in its place create a new one
[03:05] <james296> I cant unmount it...
[03:05] <thserhaaerhh> can anyone help me get a GUI up?
[03:05] <lufis> james296: can't unmount the windows partition?
[03:05] <IndyGunFreak> thserhaaerhh, at the command line
[03:05] <james296> nope
[03:05] <IndyGunFreak> log in with your username and password
[03:05] <IndyGunFreak> and type Start X
[03:06] <thserhaaerhh> done
[03:06] <pearism> anyone know if duel CPUs are supported in the generic kernel?
[03:06] <almostkorean> should i partition my hadr drive and make one of them a "master boot record"  in disk utility?
[03:06] <jrib> pearism: yes
[03:06] <IndyGunFreak> or startx one or the other, can't remember
[03:06] <pearism> jrib: ok, thanks
[03:06] <lufis> james296: did you type sudo umount /mountpoint?
[03:06] <jrib> pearism: well they are in feisty's, I assume it's the same for edgy
[03:06] <james296> no
[03:06] <thserhaaerhh> -bash: Start: command not found
[03:06] <lufis> james296: how did you try to unmount it?
[03:06] <lufis> thserhaaerhh: startx
[03:07] <james296> using gparted
[03:07] <varsendaggr> firefox keeps crashing
[03:07] <thserhaaerhh> still command not found
[03:07] <javiolo> hi
[03:07] <varsendaggr> !firefox
[03:07] <ubotu> firefox is the default web-browser on Ubuntu. To install the latest version, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion Installing plugins: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxPlugins
[03:07] <corevette> what version do you have varsendaggr
[03:07] <lufis> james296: no, run "mount" and see what the stats are for it. then run umount
[03:07] <scan_> jrib: were you able to take a look at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7436/  ?
[03:07] <varsendaggr> 1.5.0.9
[03:07] <pearism> jrib: i think so too. im looking at the System Monitor now and it is showing CPU1, CPU2, CPU3 and CPU4 in use and active. I just wasnt sure because I have seen an older kernel in Pkg marked as SMP
[03:08] <varsendaggr> corevette, ^^^^
[03:08] <varsendaggr> and i tried to upgrade but that didn't work.
[03:08] <jaggz-> I'm trying to install nvu.. the modern packages don't seem to want to install, and I can't find it in aptitude
[03:08] <lufis> pearism: i think to get the most processing power you need to use the smp kernel. i'm not sure though
[03:08] <javiolo> Is there any way to force the next version of a package ? rtorrent on edgy its 0.5 and in feisty 0.6
[03:08] <jaggz-> I still have hoary hedgehog on this computer
[03:08] <jrib> scan_: k, there are two ways to proceed.  We can try to force the removal, or we can try to edit the removal script to figure out why it is failing
[03:08] <thserhaaerhh> startx and Start X both say command not found
[03:08] <corevette> varsendaggr: first off a new version came out yesterday with security/stability update 1.5.0.10
[03:08] <corevette> varsendaggr: i would try upgrading to Firefox 2
[03:08] <IndyGunFreak> thserhaaerhh, then i don't know, sorry
[03:09] <thserhaaerhh> anyone else?
[03:09] <lufis> thserhaaerhh: what exactly is the issue?
[03:09] <pearism> lufis: you could be right. ill have to look into it
[03:09] <pppoe_dude> thserhaaerhh: what are you trying to do?
[03:09] <thserhaaerhh> i don't get a GUI
[03:09] <thserhaaerhh> just text command line
[03:09] <lufis> pearism: search ubuntuforums.org for "smp"
[03:09] <almostkorean> soo anyone know why i cant partition my mac hd?
[03:09] <pppoe_dude> thserhaaerhh: which version of ubuntu did u install?
[03:09] <lufis> thserhaaerhh: was it working before?
[03:09] <thserhaaerhh> 6.06 server
[03:10] <thserhaaerhh> no, first time i've ever installed linux
[03:10] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[03:10] <corevette> varsendaggr: find out what your doing?
[03:10] <pppoe_dude> thserhaaerhh: you need to install x-window-system
[03:10] <IndyGunFreak> 6.06 doesn't install a GUI by default if i recall
[03:10] <thserhaaerhh> i thought ubuntu was supposed to come with a gui?
[03:10] <lufis> thserhaaerhh: oh, you're using server. no wonder
[03:10] <varsendaggr> yeah   i am upgrading
[03:10] <IndyGunFreak> Ubuntu does, Ubuntu server doesn't
[03:10] <lufis> thserhaaerhh: you installed the server edition
[03:10] <jrib> scan_: any preference?
[03:10] <thserhaaerhh> oh
[03:10] <IndyGunFreak> why the hell did you install the server edition?
[03:10] <thserhaaerhh> any way i can have server with gui?
[03:10] <scan_> nope
[03:10] <pppoe_dude> thserhaaerhh: if you want the whole deal install ubuntu-desktop
[03:10] <lufis> thserhaaerhh: you'd need the desktop
[03:10] <gdb> thserhaaerhh: server does not, install either ubuntu-desktop kubuntu-desktop or xubuntu-desktop
[03:11] <thserhaaerhh> ok thanks all
[03:11] <gdb> (I'd recommend ubuntu-desktop)
[03:11] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[03:11] <gdb> it's a meta-package that will set up a GNOME desktop for you
[03:11] <yellow> has anyone dealt with docbooks before ? I installed docbook, docbook-xml and docbook-xsl but it seems docbook.cat is missing
[03:11] <gdb> the other 2 will do KDE and XFCE respectively
[03:11] <frankd3> does anyone knows how to write to a ntfs partition?
[03:11] <pppoe_dude> !ntfs > frankd3
[03:11] <frankd3> !ntfs
[03:11] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[03:12] <AMD-> how dose one change the icons
[03:12] <frankd3> thanks pppoe_dude.  i'll check that out
[03:12] <javiolo> Is there any way to force the next version of a package ? rtorrent on edgy its 0.5 and in feisty 0.6
[03:12] <lufis> AMD-: system > preferences > themes
[03:12] <Pelo> anyone using frostwire ?  I need them to check  /home/user/.frostwire/frostwire.props  for me ,  I think there is a switch missing from the latest version to enable the systray icon
[03:12] <IndyGunFreak> frankd3, if you figure it out, tell the rest of us
[03:12] <jrib> yellow: it seems to get installed to /usr/share/sgml/docbook/dtd/*/
[03:12] <yellow> jrib, #_# wth do they change where to install those ?
[03:13] <frankd3> IndyGunFreak> okay, will do
[03:13] <tony__> hello, i can't get my sound card working! what typed of info do you need
[03:13] <jrib> !find docbook.cat
[03:13] <IndyGunFreak> frankd3, my point is, its impossible
[03:13] <ubotu> File docbook.cat found in docbook, kde4libs-data, kdelibs-data
[03:13] <yellow> jrib, thanks
[03:13] <jrib> yellow: np
[03:13] <kquamme> can anyone provide some help recovering files from an overwritten ext3 partition?
[03:13] <christopher> need help with feisty
[03:13] <yellow> jrib,  find docbook.cat
[03:13] <yellow> find: docbook.cat: No such file or directory
[03:13] <eck> kquamme: you are out of luck
[03:14] <brosioz> hi all how could i change the color of my hostname in console ?
[03:14] <kquamme> that's what i though
[03:14] <kquamme> ugh
[03:14] <jrib> yellow: that was a command for ubotu
[03:14] <eck> hope you have backups :-)
[03:14] <kquamme> my toshiba restore only effected the first partition
[03:14] <IndyGunFreak> so do i, you're probably hosed
[03:14] <yellow> jrib, what's the command to find something like that
[03:14] <tony__> how do yo find the folders where you make your backups
[03:14] <yellow> this is for future ref
[03:14] <kquamme> but this eMachines restore disk wiped everything out
[03:15] <IndyGunFreak> kquamme, and thats why you're screwed
[03:15] <kquamme> i had backed up my stuff in the NTFS partition to an ext3
[03:15] <kquamme> yup, totally screwed
[03:15] <eck> if it's just the partition table that is hosed, you _may_ be able to run the exact fdisk command that was used to create the partition and magically get your files back
[03:15] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[03:15] <jrib> yellow: locate (but that won't show anything if the slocate database hasn't been updated recently, to force an update you would run 'sudo updatdb'), or you could use find, like so:  find STARTING_DIRECTORY -name docbook.cat
[03:15] <eck> although i have never seen it work
[03:15] <eck> just heard about it
[03:15] <IndyGunFreak> alwyas keep some type of external backup
[03:15] <ubernub> transgress_ i got the ndiswrapper
[03:15] <SlimG> Anyone know of a site that can mail me if it registers changes on a specific site (frequently used to scan private torrent trackers to report when they've opened for registration)?
[03:15] <eck> i have personally never been able to recover files
[03:16] <transgress_> ubernub: okay have you done sudo ndiswrapper -i windowsfile.inf yet?
[03:16] <yellow> jrib, thanks
[03:16] <jrib> yellow: oops, had a typo there:  "updatedb" not "updatdb"
[03:16] <ubernub> yes
[03:16] <ubernub> it said driver already installed
[03:16] <kquamme> hmm, maybe get it lined up w/ the old sector
[03:16] <kquamme> it's worth a try, i mean, i have nothing to loose at this point
[03:16] <eck> yeah
[03:16] <jrib> yellow: and if you want to find what package includes a file even if you don't have the pacakge installed you can use the web app at packages.ubuntu.com or 'apt-file'
[03:16] <IndyGunFreak> kquamme, just don't screw it up again
[03:17] <IndyGunFreak> and learn to keep backups
[03:17] <kquamme> i really can't
[03:17] <IndyGunFreak> but i doubt you're gonna get anywhere
[03:17] <yellow> jrib, awesome
[03:17] <MybEvil_> How do I install IDEA? I downloaded it and it says I need to declare the JDK_HOME
[03:17] <MybEvil_> but I don't know how
[03:17] <yellow> Thanks a bunch man =)
[03:17] <kquamme> it would be nice if i had something to get the NTFS partition down in size
[03:17] <grout_> I have a fat32 drive, how can i format it to ext3 from the CLI?
[03:18] <kquamme> cuz i had a gap between the ntfs partition and the ext3, so it shouldn't have wrote over my ext3 stuff
[03:18] <Pelo> grout_,   parted --help
[03:18] <lufis> Pelo: what's wrong?
[03:18] <kquamme> gparted doesn't support resizing ntfs does it, i'll have to find something commercial, right?
[03:18] <MybEvil_> Does anyone know how to setup IDEA ?
[03:18] <Matux> still have a problem with HAL!!!!
[03:19] <Matux> fail to initialize HAL!!!
[03:19] <Matux> is this a Gnome bug?
[03:19] <eck> kquamme: yeah, if it's just the partition table then all your data is still there, if you can figure out how to line the partition up on the right sector you are in luck
[03:19] <MybEvil_> I read the Install-Linux.txt but it doesn't help much lol
[03:19] <eck> it is probably harder than it sounds though
[03:19] <kquamme> i bet
[03:19] <Pelo> lufis,  the systray icon doesn't seem to work with the latest frostwire,  I wanted someone with an older version to send me their   forstwire.props  files so I can see if there is a line in there I can add to mine
[03:19] <lufis> Pelo: oh, sorry. i have no idea
[03:20] <kquamme> but i think it's totally possible
[03:20] <lufis> Pelo: never used it. i like nicotine+
[03:20] <Pelo> kquamme,  boot up the live cd and resize the etx3 partition,  should be safe enoug
[03:20] <Pelo> lufis,  I like nicotine too but to coat my lungs , not to dl files with
[03:20] <lufis> Pelo: :P
[03:21] <kquamme> i don't have an ext3 anymore though, and ntfs is hogging the whole thing
[03:21] <Pelo> :-)
[03:21] <Matux> why would you have linux in ntfs
[03:21] <Pelo> kquamme,  look up something called partition magic , might help
[03:21] <kquamme> yea, i suppose i'll just pay for it
[03:22] <drewsus> hello everyone
[03:22] <scan_> hello
[03:22] <steffen_> "/ignore -channels #ubuntu * JOINS PARTS QUITS NICKS"
[03:22] <drewsus> I have a problem and was wondering if anyone could help me out. Here it is:
[03:23] <Spartacus> Anyone know if there is a way to install Macromedia Flash? Not the plugin, the program
[03:23] <Spartacus> On Ubuntu, that is
[03:23] <drewsus> I have installed Ubuntu and when it goes to boot it stalls. I run recovery mode and end up getting various errors
[03:23] <drewsus> here is an example
[03:23] <kquamme> moment of truth
[03:24] <IndyGunFreak> kquamme, why is that/
[03:24] <eck> Spartacus: i think you need to download whatever adobe.com provides
[03:24] <drewsus> hda:hda dma_intr: status=0x51 {driveready seakcomplete error}
[03:24] <MybEvil_> Can someone help me with setting up Intelliji IDEA?
[03:24] <kquamme> indy: currently saving changes to the table to try and retrieve the info
[03:24] <drewsus> ide:failed opcode was: unknown
[03:24] <MybEvil_> this is the error i get:
[03:24] <MybEvil_> No JDK found to run IDEA. Please validate either IDEA_JDK or JDK_HOME points to valid JDK installation
[03:24] <Spartacus> Well, I can download the plugin through Add/remove, but not the actual flash maker
[03:25] <drewsus> and then some other very similar errors (ie drive statuserror badCRC)
[03:25] <snowpunk98> Could anyone suggest a good blog software to run on Ubuntu server, I would like it to also provide technical guides/articles
[03:25] <kquamme> well i'm up a creek
[03:26] <IndyGunFreak> kquamme, i thin you've been told that several times..lol
[03:26] <Shrimpy> i have a problem, any body want to try and tackle this with me?
[03:26] <IndyGunFreak> kquamme, this is one reason why i think keeping Linux on a completely separate hard drive is a good idea
[03:26] <snowpunk98> Anyone with a blog suggestion?/
[03:26] <kquamme> indy: yup, just confirming to eck that it didn't work
[03:26] <Braille> hey shrimpy, hehe, that my mom's nickname since she was like 15. mom is small :)
[03:27] <Softly> yo
[03:27] <lufis> snowpunk98: wordpress? everybody's using it
[03:27] <nutterpc> Shrimpy: depends what it is mate
[03:27] <kquamme> indy: my linux install is fine
[03:27] <kquamme> my data from XP that i backed up on an ext3 partition is what is gone
[03:27] <Shrimpy> its a crappy sound problem, kinda a long story you if you to help
[03:27] <IndyGunFreak> right, you lost all your files that the windows install overwrote on another partition
[03:27] <nutterpc> crappy sound?
[03:27] <nutterpc> 0_o?
[03:27] <kquamme> yup
[03:27] <Senderbasic> D00
[03:28] <IndyGunFreak> kquamme, was that the only place you had them backed up?
[03:28] <nutterpc> explain a little more about it Shrimpy
[03:28] <Shrimpy> well i used to have sound with no problem except it would only work with one application. so i messed around and now i've got no sound
[03:28] <nutterpc> hmms
[03:28] <nutterpc> what did you mess around with?
[03:28] <Softly> don't know
[03:28] <kquamme> yea, i was trying to quickly clean up the family pc
[03:28] <lufis> /name lufis-brb
[03:28] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy, i'd say you need to change back whatever you messed around with
[03:29] <Shrimpy> also nutterpc for some reason alsamixer does not work. rmmond and the other thing does not work
[03:29] <nutterpc> Shrimpy: what did you mess with
[03:29] <kquamme> we all have laptops, so my younger bro is the only one who uses it now
[03:29] <Shrimpy> a config file :)
[03:29] <nutterpc> which one Shrimpy
[03:29] <kquamme> and he install a whole bunch of crap, so it was time for a nice fresh install

[03:30] <Senderbasic> China loves teh xchats ;)
[03:30] <nutterpc> open up an xterm, su urself, and press up on the keyboard to list the last used commands
[03:31] <Senderbasic> How are you doings btw ?
[03:31] <nutterpc> you might find the one you messed with in there
[03:31] <IndyGunFreak> aum, do you need a windows program or a Linux program?
[03:31] <GionnyBoss> how can I understand from which repository is a package from?
[03:31] <aum> linux
[03:31] <Shrimpy> well nutterpc it happened yesterday
[03:31] <IndyGunFreak> gnomebaker or k3b are both good
[03:31] <aum> k
[03:31] <Shrimpy> and i've been using a lot of commands to try and fix it
[03:31] <nutterpc> Shrimpy: if you can find out for me what file it is you messed with I can help you a bit easier
[03:32] <radar1976> I need some help
[03:32] <radar1976> I'm really stuggling to get my apache vhosts to work
[03:32] <Shrimpy> alright, nutterpc i thank you. well i am gooing to go though and try and file that file or forum. i'll be back in a couple of mins
[03:32] <Braille> I/reply
[03:32] <AdamKili> !synaptic
[03:32] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[03:32] <radar1976> I have copied my config from the old server to the new server,  and the vhosts don't work
[03:33] <AdamKili> what's the other graphical package manager?
[03:33] <IndyGunFreak> !synaptic ROCKS
[03:33] <ubotu> synaptic: Graphical package manager. In component main, is optional. Version 0.57.11ubuntu12 (edgy), package size 1032 kB, installed size 5420 kB
[03:33] <Senderbasic> radar1976: perhaps evil syntax ?

[03:34] <AdamKili> apt-get isn't graphical
[03:34] <lordkeiden> anyone know what package has made gnome have a real start button, like win xp's, down in the lower left? I kinda like it, but want to change it and the colors. I kinda gotta know what it is that did it before i can change it...
[03:34] <IndyGunFreak> AdamKili, it doesn't need to be
[03:34] <bruenig> it says adept
[03:34] <IndyGunFreak> Synaptic is the graphical front end of Apt-get
[03:34] <bruenig> apt-get is easier
[03:34] <nutterpc> knowing my luck, what Shrimpy has done, has messed wit the .asoundrc file, in which case yes, his sound wouldn't work

[03:36] <Shrimpy> nutterpc...you're right. i made a back up. but i don't remember if i saved itin the same folder. (and i forget where the .ssoundrc file is located)
[03:36] <kevogod> Aptitude is the best.
[03:36] <bruenig> apt-get is better
[03:36] <almostkorean> hey so if i select my hard drive that i want to partition, but i want to keep all the files on there
[03:36] <Senderbasic> What a nice woman i chatted with tonight, not the one that apparently won prizes because she was so good loking but a modest lady, perfect looking but not a model and not someone yould think "wow she is beautiful" ... ill have to get her, no doubt
[03:36] <almostkorean> how do i do that in the ubuntu partitioner
[03:37] <bruenig> almostkorean, you mean to resize?
[03:37] <kevogod> bruenig, And why is apt-get better than aptitude?
[03:37] <nutterpc> lol Shrimpy, hows that for a guess mate
[03:37] <almostkorean> well its on my powerbook so i need to make a partition to put ubuntu on
[03:37] <bruenig> kevogod, you initiated so I am going to say that you have the burden here
[03:37] <Shrimpy> nutterpc i would shake your hand on that guess.
[03:37] <kevogod> bruenig: Aptitude remembers dependencies while apt-get does not.
[03:37] <nutterpc> :)
[03:38] <bruenig> kevogod, apt-get does too, you ever seen apt-get autoremove
[03:38] <nutterpc> Shrimpy: I know ubuntu once you set it up right doesn't give you any hassles
[03:38] <nutterpc>  13:38:33 up 4 days,  5:34,  1 user,  load average: 0.00, 0.03, 0.04
[03:38] <nutterpc> as u can see there
[03:38] <bruenig> kevogod, but with autoremove, it gives you the option of removing dependencies, on aptitude it does not, more options = better, therefore
[03:38] <alican> people could you tell me how can i manage my partitions?
[03:38] <nutterpc> I've been kernel compiling, that's why my uptime is low
[03:38] <cryedwolf> hey
[03:38] <kevogod> bruenig, Aptitude does not require you to remove the dependencies.
[03:39] <Shrimpy> alright
[03:39] <Senderbasic> Im clearly loving that chick, totally surpasses any chick ive ever humped ;)
[03:39] <almostkorean> im mostly worried about deleting all my shit on my hard drive
[03:39] <alican> guys could you please help in partitioning
[03:39] <bruenig> kevogod, when you do aptitude remove, it removes the dependencies automatically
[03:39] <InLove> Enablekeylogger
[03:39] <nutterpc> Shrimpy: well, what you need to do now, is look for the backup you said you made of the .asoundrc file
[03:39] <kevogod> bruenig, Yes, but you can make it not do that.
[03:39] <Senderbasic> OMF!
[03:40] <bruenig> kevogod, ok well then they are equal, and you haven't met your burden
[03:40] <Senderbasic> Neat call
[03:40] <kevogod> bruenig, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/75882
[03:40] <eck> alican: use fdisk
[03:40] <nutterpc> not even knowing your hardware configuration on your pc, I can't even help recreate a basic .asoundrc which would get you up & running
[03:40] <sonyvaio> hola a todos
[03:40] <kevogod> "apt-get autoremove removes required packages"
[03:40] <Shrimpy> alright nutterpc do you know the location of .asoundrc. like the folder
[03:40] <alican> eck: where do i get that?
[03:40] <bruenig> who is going to !ops Senderbasic
[03:40] <cryedwolf> hey anyone know how to how to install a dvd drive
[03:40] <jackson3452> is there any way to automatically install a LAMP server in edgy once I've already installed the desktop CD?
[03:40] <Shrimpy> ok
[03:40] <sonyvaio> saben necesito instalar los drivers para mi impresora en ubuntu 6.10
[03:40] <nutterpc> Shrimpy: its normally in your home folder
[03:40] <cryedwolf> ???
[03:40] <alican> eck: does it have a gui?-
[03:40] <OCgraphikz> what is a shell command that generates a lot of text
[03:40] <sonyvaio> pero la extension es .rpm como lo hago?
[03:40] <bruenig> cryedwolf, put it in and restart, or hopefully you turned off the computer first, and then put it in and start
[03:41] <OCgraphikz> they do it in a lot of movies and they say they are hacking when they do it
[03:41] <eck> alican: no, it does not have a gui. it comes standard
[03:41] <nutterpc> OCgraphikz: follow the white rabbot
[03:41] <bruenig> kevogod, that was one incident, not something widespread nor anything significant
[03:41] <nutterpc> :P
[03:41] <Senderbasic> bruenig, the gang is nicer then it ever was if ever been eval -1 so, nice
[03:41] <alican> eck: is there any partitioning software that comes with a gui?
[03:41] <nutterpc> rabbit*
[03:41] <OCgraphikz> hehe
[03:42] <Senderbasic> bruenig: !envarwebz
[03:42] <kevogod> bruenig, Aptitude provides a text interface while apt-get does not. If you concede they are equal in terms of functionality then aptitude is better because of this.
[03:42] <OCgraphikz> doesnt work
[03:42] <OCgraphikz> :P
[03:42] <eck> alican: gparted
[03:42] <madman91> hey all
[03:42] <bruenig> kevogod, the text interface is pointless and cluttered and not useful
[03:42] <alican> eck: thanks thanks thanks ^^
[03:42] <jackson3452> is there any way to automatically install a LAMP server in edgy once I've already installed the desktop CD?

[03:42] <comradec> Hi, I'm running drake on a compaq v2000 laptop.  I can't seem to get the monitor to shut off the backlight after 10 mins or so.  I tried setting the power off in the xorg.conf and with xscreensaver.  It just blanks the screen instead of turning the backlight off...
[03:42] <fazed> hi i have ubuntu 6.06, all  updates. Xorg with nvidia binary drivers. everyhtings good but if i logout the system just locks up. can anyone help?
[03:42] <jackson3452> madman91: banshee
[03:42] <crazy_bus> my system partition has lost files again.  fsck tells me of deleted inodes.  Is there anything I can do
[03:43] <nutterpc> Shrimpy: as soon as I get some things finished on my lappy, I'll be able to help others boost ubuntu up a bit
[03:43] <Senderbasic> ^=!play, diceman
[03:43] <javiolo> kevogod dont forget that aptitude when removing deletes dependeces
[03:43] <InLove> pwnage
[03:43] <nutterpc> trying to get the kernel right atm, which is proving a pain in the backside >_>
[03:43] <kevogod> javiolo, I know.
[03:43] <bruenig> javiolo, so does apt-get
[03:43] <nwebmaster> Hello!
[03:43] <balleyne> Question about filesystem formats: If I'm looking to share an external hard drive with linux/windows, is FAT32 my best bet? Any other suggestions? Thanks
[03:44] <Shrimpy> hey nutterpc i know i went through two folders when i changed it. any suggestions? i did a file search and i've got nothing
[03:44] <Senderbasic> I feel i need that girl, she was true
[03:44] <fazed> balleyne, yes fat32
[03:44] <madman91> jackson3452: full flac support?
[03:44] <javiolo> bruenig mmm didnt worked for me, I had to use debfoster
[03:44] <Senderbasic> And hence shell be
[03:44] <nwebmaster> i uesed ubuntu at 256mb Ram not work
[03:44] <OCgraphikz> nutterpc : Do you know the command though?
[03:44] <balleyne> thanks :)
[03:44] <bruenig> balleyne, yeah for sharing files between the two, or maybe ext3 and you can get the fs-driver.org ext3 driver for windows
[03:44] <bruenig> javiolo, you have to do sudo apt-get autoremove
[03:44] <jackson3452> madman91: I'm fairly certain. let me double-check for you
[03:44] <nutterpc> Shrimpy: set nautilus to show hidden files
[03:44] <almostkorean> ok nm turns out i need to get mactools
[03:44] <nutterpc> see if it pops up that way
[03:45] <nutterpc> OCgraphikz: nope
[03:45] <javiolo> bruenig ahh ok,  well now I only use aptitude :)
[03:45] <Shrimpy> yeah cntrl h
[03:45] <Shrimpy> nothing
[03:45] <nutterpc> hmms
[03:45] <bruenig> javiolo, it is a newer feature, perhaps you didn't give it a try in edgy
[03:46] <nwebmaster> who have a miracle for ubuntu
[03:46] <javiolo> nwebmaster try xubuntu
[03:46] <madman91> jackson3452: thanks
[03:46] <Senderbasic> LEts see if the neighbours are awake, lets crank up the volume to 90% :)
[03:46] <Senderbasic> They love that :P
[03:46] <jackson3452> madman91: wikipedia says it does. I'm not actually on linux at the moment so I can't tell you, but if you don't like it it's not a huge pain to install/uninstall or anything. just sudo apt-get install banshee should do it
[03:46] <nutterpc> Shrimpy: only thing I can suggest is to look thru all the folders you can remember going thru, but, this time, to find all the files in them, use xterm
[03:46] <bruenig> Senderbasic is a pretty good bot, he flies under the radar well
[03:46] <madman91> jackson3452: yea im getting it
[03:47] <jackson3452> is there any way to automatically install a LAMP server in edgy once I've already installed the desktop CD?
[03:47] <madman91> jackson3452: issues.. banshee wont run .. error
[03:47] <jackson3452> madman91: what kind of error?
[03:47] <bruenig> jackson3452, install apache, then mysql then php?
[03:47] <javiolo> jackson3452 with the ubuntu server cd you have that option
[03:47] <Senderbasic> bruenig: i know the scent of a bot, am i one... you think ?
[03:47] <jackson3452> javiolo: I know. that's why I'm asking this question
[03:48] <jackson3452> bruenig: that's not hard to configure or anything?
[03:48] <madman91> jackson3452: ill pastebin it
[03:48] <bruenig> !dvd > cryedwolf
[03:48] <InLove> bruenig: meknowthingsknot e is none
[03:48] <jackson3452> madman91: all righty
[03:48] <javiolo> jackson3452 just apt-get it :)
[03:48] <fazed> anyone happen to know why ubuntu 6.0.6 freezes when you log out of X (end current session)? nvidia binary drivers.
[03:48] <jackson3452> javiolo: haha all righty then
[03:48] <madman91> jackson3452: http://madman91.pastebin.ca/371107
[03:49] <javiolo> jackson3452 I tried that and works perfect
[03:49] <christopher> anyone know how to install gyachi in feisty
[03:49] <jackson3452> madman91: all right give me a moment
[03:49] <Spaghetti_Knife> Hi. I was wondering, my xchat client keeps stopping downloads. They slow down, then they stop at 0.
[03:49] <nutterpc> working on a sunday, dammit................ah well, least its money
[03:49] <madman91> jackson3452: ok.. no problem

[03:49] <switchy> hi all, when I change my keybindings in the configuration editor (in this case, changing the open window menu from alt + space), it does not take effect, how can I change that keybinding permenently to alt+ m
[03:50] <Phreddy_Pfander> quit Poof
[03:50] <Senderbasic> Is _NOT_ accepting sanity calls from outside a virtue by morons on irc nowdays ? / I for one can not see how that ever improved brainpowerphattening..
[03:50] <jackson3452> madman91: do a sudo aptitude search sqlite and then sudo aptitude search mono and install the main packages for both of those platforms (I can't tell you what they're called since I'm not on linux and all)
[03:51] <madman91> jackson3452: ok .. h/o im updating right now
[03:51] <Senderbasic> bruenig: please explain yourself..
[03:51] <ryanpg> hi.... perhaps I'm missing something... but is there a way to drag a file into a nautilus window that's full of folders, and have the file go into the root folder rather than one of the subfolders?
[03:52] <bruenig> ryanpg, drag it into the empty space
[03:52] <ryanpg> bruenig, what if there's no empty space?
[03:52] <Braille> make sure that "view" is not set to "list"
[03:52] <ryanpg> Braille, ahh... ok so it's just a list vs. icon view thing
[03:53] <Spaghetti_Knife> Hi, I'm having trouble with dcc transfers over xchat. Is there a problem with my firewall or something?
[03:53] <jackson3452> ryanpg: if you're not uncomfortable with the terminal a better way would just be to do a cp -R /path/to/source /path/to/destination
[03:53] <InLove> sonic, pay no attention to bruen.. he seems crazy atm
[03:53] <ryanpg> jackson3452, yeah that's a good way to do it... though for file management I usually end up resorting to using mc
[03:53] <Senderbasic> we will, thx loves
[03:54] <ryanpg> jackson3452, I was just wondering if there was a nautilus "trick"
[03:54] <switchy> hi all, when I change my keybindings in the configuration editor (in this case, changing the open window menu from alt + space), it does not take effect, how can I change that keybinding permenently to alt+ m?
[03:54] <jackson3452> ryanpg: yeah I figured.. just wanted to be as useful as possible haha
[03:54] <ryanpg> jackson3452, thanks though :)
[03:54] <madman91> jackson3452: same errors
[03:54] <marcos_> xD
[03:54] <madman91> jackson3452: i installed sqlite and mono
[03:55] <marcos_> t 2 xD
[03:55] <mastermixer> could anyone in here please tell me what's the name of the font shown in this screenshot? http://www.gnome-look.org/content/preview.php?preview=1&id=36386&file1=36386-1.jpg&file2=&file3=&name=BrushedC

[03:55] <nutterpc> goodo

[03:56] <Spartacus> Anyone here have experience with Ktoons?
[03:56] <jackson3452> madman91: damn... I'm sorry to say that I can't help you at this point. you may want to do some research, look it up on the forums, ask other people, or try some other music player (maybe rhythmbox or something?). I'm terribly sorry
[03:57] <Malachi> Spaghetti_Knife: Try using firestarter. 'sudo apt-get install firestarter'
[03:57] <Shrimpy> nutterpc it seems i made two files there.   asound.conf     and     asound.confg
[03:58] <nutterpc> what I suggest you do Shrimpy, open your original .asoundrc, and compare it against the two backups
[03:58] <Spaghetti_Knife> Malachi: Currently installing updates, so apt isn't usable right now. Thanks.
[03:58] <tale_> I'm trying to enable spdif output on a turtle beach catalina sound card that I have.  I've read through all the posts I could fine on the ubuntuforums site and I'm still stuck.  Can anybody help me with this?
[03:59] <pearism> hello...my linux install is assigning the label sdb1 to my root harddrive (hd0) and sda1 to an external Firewire drive when it's connected. will this cause problems? I thought the bootdrive always had to be sda1
[03:59] <Malachi> Spaghetti_Knife: Let me know if you still have problems. Hopefully I'll still be here.
[03:59] <quaal> anyone know how to get python 2.4.4 ?
[03:59] <Spaghetti_Knife> Malachi: Thanks.
[03:59] <darkch1ld> what's the best program to capture video from a webcam?
[04:00] <Shrimpy> nutterpc: those are the only files. and one is a lot larger then the other. also i don't know if i ned to rename it. and also what do i do to make it that one. (for example i am going to save both files on a flash drive. and then deploy one of them. (but i dont know what i would do
[04:01] <nutterpc> Shrimpy: open them up and have a look, compare whats in them against the original .asoundrc
[04:02] <Shrimpy> nutterpc: crap the files are .asound    so does this mean i still need to find asoundrc?
[04:02] <nutterpc> have a look thru them
[04:03] <Shrimpy> sudo mv /etc/esound/esd.conf /etc/esound/esd.conf_backup
[04:03] <Shrimpy>    i also found this

[04:09] <bruenig> wow Senderbasic is still going
[04:09] <SubMOA> Trying to run firefox from root (to get updates) so i typed "sudo su" <enter> "firefox" <enter> and it started just fine, but still can't get updates
[04:09] <ardchoille> SubMOA: sudo -i
[04:09] <bruenig> ingrix, when you turn on the computer, hit escape and there should be a list of all your kernels, ubuntu never removes kernels
[04:10] <OKnotOK> i can't get wine to run any .exe files -- always says "module not found"
[04:10] <ardchoille> SubMOA: Are you on Dapper?
[04:10] <bruenig> SubMOA, what sort of updates are you looking for?

[04:10] <ardchoille> SubMOA: If you're on Dapper, firefox updates are locked in firefox
[04:10] <SubMOA> I am on Ubuntu and just the general, generic updates
[04:10] <GionnyBoss> SubMOA: I don't understand what are you trying to do... just do the updates normally with the update manager or with "sudo apt-get upgrade"
[04:11] <ardchoille> SubMOA: sudo apt-get upgrade
[04:11] <Braille> word
[04:11] <SubMOA> GionnyBoss, I'm pretty new, sorry, I was just doing the click click click thing.  OK, so doing that I wll upgrade everything, right? (not just firefox)
[04:11] <bruenig> Supre_Me, try sudo apt-get install libgtk1.2 libgtk1.2-dev
[04:11] <bruenig> SubMOA, running firefox as root won't upgrade it

[04:12] <GionnyBoss> SubMOA: no problem :) I just was trying to understand what was your problem. Yeah, it will update everything
[04:12] <SubMOA> GionnyBoss, that's the thing, (I just noticed) the update manager is greyed out... I can't, and the update history days I haven't updated ever.  reading on the help page, it says you have to run root to install updates

[04:13] <switchy> tracy: did you try going into the settings manager?
[04:13] <GionnyBoss> SubMOA: just try to open a terminal and write "sudo apt-get update" and then "sudo apt-get upgrade"
[04:13] <tracy> yes, switchy
[04:13] <gop> does envy script break berrly
[04:13] <SubMOA> bruenig, firefox 2.0, but I got it new and haven't updated since them, so I assume i have a lot of potential exploites
[04:13] <Shrimpy> ocgraphikz have you tried the package manager?
[04:14] <tracy> im not sure if i disabled something, and if so i dont know what
[04:14] <OCgraphikz> nope
[04:14] <ingrix_> I apologize for signing off
[04:14] <cryedwolf> hey im trying to install some thing but its asking for a username and password i've typed it in but its not taking it
[04:14] <bruenig> SubMOA, no, they have put out a 2.0.1 but that is it
[04:14] <tehxed> Senderbasic: Hey man
[04:14] <tehxed> I could use your help with fglrx issues
[04:14] <Shrimpy> sometimes apt-get and package manager have different things
[04:14] <bruenig> tehxed, that is a bot
[04:14] <switchy> is the box for "Rotate Cube" checked?
[04:14] <SubMOA> i just read something that there is some guy that's finding exploits almost everyday and releasing them before giving mozilla a chance to fix them... kind of got me all hot and bothered about it
[04:14] <tehxed> bruenig: what do you mean by bot?
[04:14] <ingrix_> bruenig: I will try to configure grub one more time, but if I can't get it I will be back
[04:14] <tehxed> bruenig: what's a bot?
[04:15] <Senderbasic> tehxed: good to see you man... how do you like the society ?
[04:15] <tracy> yes switchy
[04:15] <tehxed> bruenig: oh =(
[04:15] <tehxed> I'll shutup then
[04:15] <tracy> thats why i wanst sure why it isnt rotating
[04:15] <Xerocide> I have a problem when I try to boot linux off the cd.
[04:15] <Senderbasic> bruenig: ssh
[04:15] <Senderbasic> kids these days..
[04:15] <bruenig> tehxed, yeah it is a very good bot
[04:15] <tlegistrae> I installed legacy nvidia drivers and my x fails to load, I would like to set it bad to defaults.  I ran nvidias uninstall process, but x still fails to boot.  Is there an easy way t o use the live cd to repair my video sets to the ubuntu defualt?

[04:16] <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
[04:16] <tehxed> bruenig: I don't know if you're being serious or not...
[04:16] <frankd3> tracy: try holding down CTRL+ALT and move your mouse around
[04:16] <switchy> what are the listed keybindings to rotate the cube?
[04:16] <Xerocide> Every time I pick "Start or install ubuntu" it says a few things and then goes to another screen that says some more stuff then my computer just restarts.
[04:16] <bruenig> tehxed, I am being serious
[04:16] <tracy> im on a laptop, frankd3, does that make a difference
[04:16] <kitsuneofdoom> do you know how to use sftp to put a directory instead of a file?
[04:16] <ardchoille> !bot | tehxed
[04:16] <ubotu> tehxed: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[04:16] <tracy> i was using ctrl alt (arrow) yesterday
[04:16] <bruenig> !bot | Senderbasic
[04:17] <ubotu> Senderbasic: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[04:17] <Madpilot> Xerocide, below the "start/install ubuntu" option on that very first menu is a "test this CD" option - have you run that?
[04:17] <Spaghetti_Knife> How do I set up a static IP address for Ubuntu?
[04:17] <Shrimpy> hello, anyone here really good with sound problems?
[04:17] <tehxed> bruenig: stop messing around
[04:17] <bruenig> Senderbasic, don't respond to ubotu he is a bot
[04:17] <frankd3> tracy: no it shouldn't matter.  well try holding down CTRL+ALT and hold down LEFT click on your mouse and move the mouse around
[04:17] <SubMOA> i use beryl... cool stuff... I want to get voice commands to move it around, etc. but I have been lazy
[04:17] <tehxed> Senderbasic: "* Senderbasic tehxed bot he sais ?"
[04:17] <shwag> which one is better.  aMule or xMule ?
[04:17] <Xerocide> When I try running that, it does the exact same thing.  Everything does the same thing except the "Memory test" option.
[04:17] <bulmer> kitsuneofdoom: why dont you tar a directory first then "put" it at the destination
[04:17] <OCgraphikz> Shrimpy : What is the command line for dpkg TCL
[04:17] <frankd3> Spaghetti_Knife: try looking in /etc/network/interfaces
[04:17] <tracy> frankd3, is it supposed to do something?
[04:17] <aridese> hey guys, is there a linux equivalent to artmoney (memory editor to cheat at games)
[04:18] <tehxed> bruenig: "* Senderbasic tehxed tell him to shut up or frontal lobes will him him dead on"
[04:18] <frankd3> well that's a way i move the cube around in 3d
[04:18] <bruenig> tehxed, what are you telling me for, he is a bot, I already told you that
[04:18] <tracy> well i dont use a mouse
[04:18] <tlegistrae> Can anyone tell me how to access my harddisk installation of ubuntu from the live cd?
[04:18] <SubMOA> aridese, osalt.com is a great OS Alternative website
[04:18] <Madpilot> Xerocide, sounds like a bad burn. Did you run md5sum on the ISO before you burned it?
[04:18] <tracy> use the mousepad, but yesterday it did fine with ctrl alt (arrow direction)
[04:18] <aridese> SubMOA: yeah but i need artmoney
[04:18] <bulmer> tlegistrae: mount it
[04:18] <frankd3> tracy:  how about holding down CTRL+ALT and either press the right or left arrow
[04:18] <Xerocide> I ordered the CD from the Ubuntu...So I guess it isn't a bad burn?
[04:18] <Shrimpy> ocgraphikz sorry i have no clue
[04:18] <tracy> frankd3, i did that
[04:18] <tracy> its not working
[04:18] <Spaghetti_Knife> frankd3: There's no such directory
[04:19] <SubMOA> aridese, ohh, sorry, haha... can't help man
[04:19] <tracy> thats my problem
[04:19] <tehxed> bruenig: Think you could help with an fglrx issue?
[04:19] <SubMOA> aridese, that was a kind-hearted chuckle, btw...
[04:19] <Madpilot> Xerocide, it still could be a dud CD - that does happen even with pressed CDs...
[04:19] <tlegistrae> bulmer: thx
[04:19] <bruenig> tehxed, no
[04:19] <frankd3> Spaghetti_Knife: vi /etc/network/interfaces
[04:20] <frankd3> tracy:  hold up let me check mine very quick
[04:20] <Senderbasic> !Spenderbasicz, que bruenig -s 15m
[04:20] <Spaghetti_Knife> frankd3: Now what do I do? I don't want to frak my system.
[04:20] <Wingz> hello?
[04:20] <bruenig> !howdy | Wingz
[04:20] <ubotu> Wingz: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[04:20] <tehxed> bruenig: thanks anyways
[04:20] <underdog5004> Ok, I tried to install the nvidia-glx-legacy driver for my nvidia Geforce2 go card, but when I get Error: unable to load nvidia kernel driver! Be sure to have installed the nvidia driver for your running kernel.
[04:20] <Spaghetti_Knife> frankd3: There's a line that says: "Network 192.168.0.5."
[04:20] <Wingz> Wow
[04:20] <Spaghetti_Knife> Is that the static IP address?
[04:20] <Wingz> There's alotta people in the channel
[04:20] <Wingz> wait, isn't that the ip you get wiht a router
[04:21] <Xerocide> Every CD I have burned does the same thing, could it possibly be my computer?
[04:21] <bulazeem> hi, i am having trouble with ubuntu finding my hard drive when i try to install.  my hard drive is an 80GB SATA HD.  i read somewhere that ubuntu has problems with sata hd but i cant figgure out what to do to fix it.  any help?
[04:21] <Madpilot> Wingz, 940 is pretty typical for this channel.
[04:21] <Wingz> I tried to telnet an I.P called 192.168.0.100
[04:21] <frankd3> Spaghetti_Knife:  um.. try a different way then.  System -> Administration -> Networking
[04:21] <Wingz> didn't work
[04:21] <ardchoille> Wingz: there's sometimes more :)
[04:21] <pirothezero> so memtest86 on new ram that i just bought at frys 20 minutes ago with 232 errors is that normal?
[04:21] <Wingz> cool
[04:21] <snadge> is it possible to use XFree86 instead of x.org in ubuntu edgy? the reason I ask.. is the x.org driver for siliconmotion is incredibly slow, compared to the old xfree86 that i used to use ages ago.. but nobody seems to use it anymore, because its out of date.. any ideas?
[04:21] <Madpilot> Wingz, probably because that IP wasn't running a telnet server...
[04:21] <Wingz> oh..
[04:21] <Senderbasic> All power reverted to frontal lobes, at vectorialize vect, go is expected sire!
[04:21] <Wingz> dang
[04:21] <Spaghetti_Knife> frankd3: What's wrong? is 192.168.0.5 not the IP address?
[04:22] <Zero9983> my apache already installed , where should i put my index.html ?
[04:22] <Wingz> Hey guys, is finding driver's hard on ubuntu
[04:22] <Wingz> I'm downloading it right now
[04:22] <kitsuneofdoom> bulmer: because I'm trying to do a backup from a computer with just an NTFS partition
[04:23] <underdog5004> any ideas for my issue?
[04:23] <frankd3> Spaghetti_Knife:  it's an ip.  i thought you want to set up a static ip
[04:23] <Spaghetti_Knife> frankd3: Right. Now what? I've opened it up.
[04:24] <Wingz> Wait, isn't static IPs easier to hack?
[04:24] <Wingz> because they neverchange?
[04:24] <Zero9983> my apache already installed , where should i put my index.html ?
[04:24] <Madpilot> Wings, you shouldn't need many drivers for Ubuntu - most stuff will just work
[04:24] <Spaghetti_Knife> Wingsz: I guess... but I'm not really paranoid about that.
[04:24] <tonyyarusso> Zero9983: /var/www/
[04:24] <Wingsz> lol
[04:24] <tonyyarusso> Zero9983: by default anyway - you can change it in your apache config.
[04:25] <Spaghetti_Knife> frankd3: So all I do is change the DHCP menu to "Static IP Address?"
[04:25] <Wingsz> Madpilot: Cause I have a printer and I want to make sure it works with Ubuntu
[04:25] <frankd3> Spaghetti_Knife:  correct
[04:25] <Madpilot> Wingsz, what make & model of printer?
[04:25] <Spaghetti_Knife> frankd3: Okay, thanks.
[04:25] <Wingsz> and that everything on my Toshiba laptop works with ubuntu too
[04:25] <Wingsz> Lexmark E232
[04:25] <frankd3> Spaghetti_Knife: np
[04:25] <Wingsz> and do I need to get drivers for  my wireless when I install ubuntu?
[04:26] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso:  i still fresh i will try later , and php also put at the same folder ?
[04:26] <Madpilot> Wingsz, probably not, but some wireless needs more setup than others. Depends which wireless card/chip you have
[04:26] <tonyyarusso> Zero9983: That folder is what will be loaded anytime someone tries to reach your IP via a web browser, so all things served via http.
[04:27] <frankd3> tracy: under General Options -> shortcuts -> Rotate Cube -> Rotate left and right is all setup correctly
[04:27] <Wingsz> Madpilot: Great, I have a didgey wireless chipset
[04:27] <Madpilot> Wingsz, dodgy, you mean? Or is that a brand name?
[04:27] <bulazeem> anyone know what can be done to install ubuntu on a sata HD?
[04:27] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso: i alraady copy index.html how come still cant ? i use 127.0.0.1
[04:27] <Wingsz> lol
[04:28] <Wingsz> yeah, dodgey
[04:28] <Wingsz> typo...
[04:28] <Wingsz> >.<
[04:28] <shwag> is there anyway for me to install something that came as a .rpm ?
[04:28] <tonyyarusso> Zero9983: a) is index.html word readable?  (chmod a+r if not), b) is apache running?  (sudo invoke-rc.d apache start if not)
[04:28] <tonyyarusso> !rpm | shwag
[04:28] <factotum> shwag: yeah use alien
[04:28] <ubotu> shwag: 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)
[04:28] <tonyyarusso> shwag: You're better off not doing so.  what is it?
[04:28] <Madpilot> ubotu, wireless | Wingsz
[04:28] <ubotu> Wingsz: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:28] <Madpilot> ubotu, printer | Wingsz
[04:28] <ubotu> Wingsz: Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[04:29] <Wingsz> cool
[04:29] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso:  yes my apache is running
[04:29] <Wingsz> thanks
[04:29] <shwag> tonyyarusso: lightscribe software.
[04:29] <tonyyarusso> Zero9983: and if you open firefox and visit http://localhost , you get nothing?
[04:29] <bulazeem> a site i found says that ubuntu doesnt support sata.  dunno if that is true but if it is, does anyone know what i can use that does?   maybe fedora?
[04:29] <ericj2190> i broke my sudoers file, can i restore it without booting into recovery mode?
[04:30] <Alonea> hey, I have one of those multi card readers built into my laptop. How do I get linux to recognize it?
[04:30] <Madpilot> bulazeem, my only HDD is SATA, it's working just fine.
[04:30] <bulazeem> how?
[04:30] <factotum> bulazeem: if it didn't i wouldnt be talking to you right now
[04:30] <GMWeezel> How can I change the theme and background via the command line?
[04:30] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso: if u see this page mean ur apache already installed ... alot ...
[04:30] <bulazeem> it wont find my darn HD
[04:30] <factotum> bulazeem: you on a Mac or something?
[04:30] <ardchoille> GMWeezel: man gconftool-2
[04:30] <Wingsz> thanks for you help, madpilot
[04:30] <Wingsz> bye everyone
[04:30] <bulazeem> im on a windows machine.  i used nvidia raid on my single sata hd
[04:31] <Madpilot> Wingsz, np, good luck.
[04:31] <tonyyarusso> Zero9983: Sounds like you didn't actually get your new index.html into the dir.
[04:31] <tonyyarusso> Zero9983: try using cp with sudo
[04:31] <GMWeezel> ardchoille: Thanks
[04:31] <bulazeem> factotum: every time i go to install ubuntu it freezes on step 5/6 while searching for a HD to partition
[04:31] <Madpilot> bulazeem, a single HDD is not RAID. Your SATA chipset might be fakeRAID capable, though - mine is
[04:32] <SilentDis> 'lo :)
[04:32] <jean-b> hello there
[04:32] <Shrimpy> hi
[04:32] <bulazeem> Madpilot: when i installed my win xp i had to put in a floppy disk that had nvidia raid drivers on it.  thats all i know about that.  im not sure what fakeraid even is
[04:32] <jean-b> when you uninstall programs, a directory remain in home
[04:32] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso:  i got already i think i know what my problem
[04:32] <esaym> is there any kind of download manager for firefox??
[04:32] <Zero9983> hehe
[04:32] <jean-b> with the time i have acumulated a lot of directories in home
[04:33] <jean-b> a lot of them of programs i dont use anymore
[04:33] <Gogf> I have a question for you all
[04:33] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso: can u try access my ip ? try can see the testing page o not ?
[04:33] <Gogf> Do you not eat from the mouth of the weazel?
[04:33] <jean-b> how can i remove them?
[04:33] <kieran> question: how do I get a list of the installed packages? :-)
[04:33] <Madpilot> bulazeem, that's because XP is mentally handicapped and can't install on SATA. Ubuntu isn't, and can. I've never had any problems with my nVidia SATA stuff, so I'm not sure what your issue is, really...
[04:33] <ardchoille> jean-b: Those are personal configs for the apps you've used. If you have uninstalled the app, then the directory in $HOME for that app is safe to delete.
[04:33] <khaije1> kieran: dpkg -l | sort | less
[04:33] <SilentDis> jean-b, to remove a directory, the command is rm -r directoryname
[04:33] <Madpilot> Gogf, huh?
[04:33] <kieran> khaijel - ty
[04:33] <Gogf> Let me reiterate
[04:33] <Gogf> Do you not eat from the mouth of the weazel?
[04:34] <jean-b> is there an apt-get command to automaticaly purge the configs for the uninstalled programs?
[04:34] <SilentDis> !offtopic | Gogf
[04:34] <ubotu> Gogf: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[04:34] <kieran> now that I know how to get list, I forgot what I was looking for :-P
[04:34] <tonyyarusso> Zero9983: I could do that, yes.  Make sure you have port 80 forwarded in your router.
[04:34] <bulazeem> Madpilot: so what do you sugguest that i do?  maybe delete my partition and then try to install ubuntu?   also, in your bios settings does it have your HD listed as external sata 1?
[04:34] <Gogf> hi
[04:34] <OCgraphikz> what is the command line for new directory?
[04:34] <ardchoille> mkdir
[04:34] <OCgraphikz> i forgot dir
[04:34] <SilentDis> OCgraphikz, mkdir directoryname :)
[04:34] <OCgraphikz> thx
[04:34] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso: php also go to same dir ?
[04:34] <khaije1> kieran: most useful is dpg -l | grep -i "whatImLookingFor"
[04:34] <bulazeem> Madpilot: maybe it is because my HD is not partitioned really and is 100% win xp?
[04:35] <ingrix> Hello.  I was in here earlier, and I need some help installing/configuring Grub, since it won't boot my Ubuntu kernel, and it is concerning me a great deal
[04:35] <Madpilot> bulazeem, I can't recall what my BIOS lists my SATA HD as - probably SCSI/SATA HDD - not external
[04:35] <tonyyarusso> Zero9983: yes.
[04:35] <kieran> khaijel - that's what I'm doing now to find what pkgs are needed to install xfree86 on ubuntu server
[04:35] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso: thanks u alot
[04:35] <Madpilot> bulazeem, in the install, there should be a "partition your drive" step, you can push XP into it's corner and make space for Ubuntu then.
[04:35] <tonyyarusso> shwag: You might try sending a support request asking for a source tarball so that you can build your own debian package.

[04:36] <davejustdave>                              help?? when i open my "add/remove programs" its list some applications that i cannot find when on my desktop, namely "tomboy notes" and "adonthell" game
[04:36] <underdog5004> Ok, I tried to install the nvidia-glx-legacy driver for my nvidia Geforce2 go card, but when I get Error: unable to load nvidia kernel driver! Be sure to have installed the nvidia driver for your running kernel.
[04:36] <khaije1> kieran: you probably don't want to lok for XFree86 since it's not used anymore, it was replaced with xorg after liscencing issues
[04:36] <bulazeem> Madpilot: when i get to that step it just sits there and sits there until i press cancel.   it just has a little circular cursor with a ball going in circles and i waited for 1 hr last night and no results
[04:36] <shwag> tonyyarusso: did that already. now on to alien
[04:36] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso: where i can configure if i want change index.html to abc.html ?
[04:36] <kieran> ahh, will grep my ubuntu desktop for xorg then, hx
[04:36] <kieran> thx
[04:36] <OCgraphikz> is there a way to make it so I can do anything to any folder
[04:36] <ingrix> I am on Kubuntu right now so that I can get some help with this, but Grub won't load my vmlinux-2.6.17-10-generic kernel for /dev/hda1, and I am not sure what I am supposed to do.  Does anyone have any ideas?
[04:36] <darkch1ld> what would usb bus 2 device 3 be in /dev/whatever format?
[04:36] <tonyyarusso> shwag: good
[04:36] <khaije1> kieran: all the packages are listed with the xserver prefix though, if that helps :-)
[04:36] <kieran> thx :-)
[04:36] <david_> hello
[04:36] <bulazeem> Madpilot: do you think i need to update my bios?
[04:37] <Madpilot> bulazeem, very strange. I'm also not sure why your BIOS would show your HDD as 'external'...
[04:37] <SilentDis> underdog5004, i ended up going non-free myself, and just used !envy to install the latest nvidia drivers from nvidia's website
[04:37] <tonyyarusso> Zero9983: /etc/apache2/ has all the relevant config.
[04:37] <SubMOA> I have successfully (you have no idea how proud I am of that...) navigated to my music folder (using the terminal) now how do I run a Flac file?  I tried typing the name, I tried using ls and typing the number and I tried "./" but it didn't work
[04:37] <Madpilot> bulazeem, flashing/updating  your bios can't hurt. Might even make XP behave better.
[04:37] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso: thanks

[04:39] <SubMOA> another question:  I thought "home" was a generic term used when referring to your home folder... to navigate, though, I have to type "/home/"home name" etc. etc.  what's up?  can I change that from saying "home" to something else?
[04:39] <lufis> davejustdave: right click and click "add applet", i mean
[04:39] <SilentDis> !info adonthell
[04:39] <ubotu> adonthell: A 2D graphical roleplaying game. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.3.4.cvs.20050813-2.2ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 249 kB, installed size 916 kB
[04:39] <khaije1> kieran: :-) i know a little help can make a big difference, let me know if you still have troubles afterwards
[04:39] <lufis> davejustdave: ugh, "add to panel", i mean
[04:40] <SilentDis> davejustdave, adonthell should either be in Applications > Games, or you might just have to run it directly (alt-f2, type in adonthell)
[04:40] <OCgraphikz> is there a way to make it so I have "Permission" in every folder, so I don't have to do everything through sudo
[04:40] <digi_> I am new to linux and am wondering if compiling a program from source is something that would be to difficult for me
[04:40] <ardchoille> OCgraphikz: That would be very dangerous
[04:40] <davejustdave> thanks silent ans lufis
[04:40] <davejustdave> and
[04:40] <lufis> digi_: not if you know what you're doing. it's a pretty simple process :)
[04:40] <ingrix> digi_: Not at all.  Just make sure you have at least the build-essential package for your OS, otherwise you will have a tough time
[04:40] <OCgraphikz> I'm a risk-taker :P
[04:40] <Madpilot> OCgraphikz, that's a very bad idea.
[04:40] <SilentDis> digi_, if you have the build-essential package installed (sudo aptitude install build-essential), usually there's a makefile in the archive that just does everything for you :)
[04:40] <OCgraphikz> I'm trying to install ActiveTcl
[04:41] <david_> ?
[04:41] <OCgraphikz> And it won't let me install to the directory that it recommend =[
[04:41] <hawke_> Hello all.  Can anyone tell me what version of GCC the latest dapper kernel is compiled with, or suggest how I can find out for myself?
[04:41] <digi_> does anyone know of a good tutorial for compiling stuff?
[04:41] <tonyyarusso> !compile | digi_
[04:41] <ubotu> digi_: 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!)
[04:42] <ingrix> How would I go about configuring GRUB to boot a kernel on my /dev/hda1 so that it will boot regularly?  I accidentally installed a different kernel version, and stupidly replaced the new menu.lst with the old one, and now the kernel refuses to boot up.
[04:42] <Spaghetti_Knife> Grr, xChat is still closing my connection when I xdcc.
[04:42] <ardchoille> OCgraphikz: What happens when you try to use sudo to install?
[04:42] <Spaghetti_Knife> How do I change that?
[04:42] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso: there no file for me to change index.html to abc.html
[04:42] <Kioshen> ingrix, run sudo update-grub
[04:42] <ingrix> Kioshen: From my /dev/hda1?
[04:43] <Madpilot> OCgraphikz, how is activetcl packaged?
[04:43] <ingrix> Kioshen: Or could it be from anywhere?
[04:43] <tonyyarusso> Zero9983: When you say change to, you mean you want the default loaded per dir to be abc.html, or you want to rename the file?
[04:43] <OCgraphikz> one sec
[04:43] <OCgraphikz> let me test something
[04:43] <digi_> im trying to get the most recent version of rhythmbox 0.9.8 the one that dapper has is 0.9.3 so I figure the only way to get the newest one is by compiling it
[04:43] <david_> I am running Feisty and followed the guide on installing Qemu under Ubuntu on Ubuntu help, so everything is installed and running but when i run the install for windows it hangs and doesn't move at the hardware detecting
[04:43] <Kioshen> ingrix, anywhere it doesn't matter
[04:43] <ingrix> Kioshen: Thank you.  I will do that and see how it turns out.  I appreciate it much
[04:43] <lufis> digi_: it's a good way to learn how... it's not hard, but you have to install the dependencies
[04:44] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso: default loaded per dir to be abc.html o something else
[04:44] <lufis> digi_: it usually goes like this: ./configure, make, sudo make install. run ./configure --help to see options you may want/not want
[04:44] <tonyyarusso> Zero9983: That's in the apache.conf, or possibly, sites-available/default000
[04:44] <tonyyarusso> (I think)
[04:45] <cafuegr> digi_: except we use `checkinstall' to keep packages manageable, as `make install' puts crap everywhere.
[04:45] <digi_> ok cool, I'll do a little research and give it a try
[04:45] <digi_> thanks for the help
[04:46] <lufis> cafuegr: i've always thought checknstall is more trouble than its worth. i always end up with problems with the update manager wondering why theres a newer version in the db
[04:46] <cafuegr> lufis: If there is a package, doing a backport or custom package is a better bet anyway.
[04:46] <ingrix> Kioshen: I appreciate the help, but it doesn't seem to be working.  The partition I am running on right now is /dev/hda3 which I dual-booted between /dev/hda1 (Ubuntu) and this one (Kubuntu), and /dev/hda1 is where the problem lays.  Should I boot from Knoppix and try, or what?
[04:47] <cafuegr> Of course, if you give the package a different name, such problems do not occur.
[04:47] <ingrix> Kioshen: /dev/hda1 is where the Grub configuration is held that needs to be fixed.
[04:47] <lufis> cafuegr: yeah, i just had a bad experience with trying to install gaim beta5 on edgy. the update manager freaked out for some reason
[04:47] <Kioshen> ingrix, oh okay didn't know the whole story
[04:47] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso: i can see apache2.conf in /etc/apache2 only
[04:47] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso:  is the file ?
[04:48] <ingrix> Kioshen: No problem.  Any ideas?
[04:48] <tonyyarusso> Zero9983: yes
[04:48] <Kioshen> ingrix, if they are two OSes you can chroot in your ubuntu installation
[04:48] <swix> does ubuntu's evolution have ldap support compiled in?
[04:48] <cafuegr> swix: yah
[04:48] <tonyyarusso> swix: I think so?
[04:48] <Kioshen> ingrix, and run update-grub from inside the chroot
[04:48] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso:  let's me see again
[04:48] <ingrix> Kioshen: Could you explain that please?  I am not familiar with chroot
[04:48] <swix> tonyyarusso, right, I'm confused, do I configure the directory in evolution (no dialog I can find) or do i do it somewhere else?
[04:49] <swix> 6.06LTS btw
[04:49] <Kioshen> ingrix, mount your /dev/hda1 partition somewhere in your kubuntu
[04:49] <lisapc> does gparted create and restore image files?
[04:49] <Kioshen> ingrix, and then chroot /path/to/hda1
[04:49] <pottie> i need alil help ive been searching for a certain linux os but cant seam to remember the name it beginning wit men nem
[04:49] <pottie> *men or nem
[04:49] <ardchoille> lisapc: Partimage can do taht. I use partimage to backup /dev/hda to dev/hdb
[04:50] <ingrix> Kioshen: Alright.  Give me a second.  I have to try to do that now ;)  this partition doesn't like mounting the superblock
[04:50] <lisapc> ardchoille does partimage create a bootable CD to image any hdd or partition?
[04:50] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso: how come it not allow me to modify apache2.conf? READ-ONLY
[04:51] <ardchoille> lisapc: Hold on a sec...
[04:51] <lisapc> ardchoille ok ty
[04:51] <Kioshen> pottie, check on http://distrowatch.com/
[04:51] <tonyyarusso> Zero9983: Because only root-priviledged access is allowed in /etc.
[04:51] <kevogod> I am receiving "udevd-event[1688] : run_program: '/sbin/modprobe' abnormal exit" when I try to run the Ubuntu 6.10 install. I have a Promise SATA controller. Does anyone know if there is a workaround to get 6.10 to install?
[04:51] <tonyyarusso> !sudo | Zero9983
[04:51] <ubotu> Zero9983: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[04:51] <tonyyarusso> swix: Honestly, not sure.
[04:51] <foxiness> after i upgrade edubuntu by a ubuntu cd "ubuntu 6.10" its remove edubunut meta package and installed a ubuntu meta package instead ,but now with out usplash"text mode" edubuntu login and background icon all edubuntu "old one 6.06" , how can i update all this to take the ubuntu theme or if i can edubunut theme "update one 6.10"
[04:51] <Kioshen> pottie, it has a fairly comprehensive list of distros
[04:52] <ardchoille> lisapc: I don't believe it does. However, have a look at the system rescue cd ( http://sysresccd.org/Main_Page ) It's a livecd with lots of admin tools including partimage. I recommend everyone have a copy :)
[04:52] <SubMOA> ok... not sure if anyone is still here from my earlier question of updating/grading firefox, but I just did sudo apt-get upgrade and sudo apt-get update and I still haven't updated firefox... help?!
[04:52] <lisapc> ardchoille will it create and restore image files of partitions and hdd?
[04:53] <lufis> SubMOA: what version are you using?
[04:53] <ardchoille> lisapc: What I normally do is burn the images that partimage makes onto a cd/dvd and use the system rescue cd to restore those oimages if needed.
[04:53] <tehxed> SubMOA: enabled universal and multi-verse repositories?
[04:53] <ardchoille> lisapc: yes
[04:53] <SubMOA> 2.0.0.1
[04:53] <SubMOA> tehxed, ...ehhh... let me check
[04:53] <lisapc> ardchoille how did you create the bootable CD?
[04:53] <P235> hi, just recently installed kubuntu-desktop onto ubuntu.  Is there a way to set up the networking icon into the system tray here?
[04:53] <lufis> SubMOA: the repos probably haven't been updated yet. no worries, wait a day or two
[04:53] <ingrix> Kioshen: It doens't look like I can mount /dev/hda1 from this partition.  I do have a copy of Knoppix though.  Should I boot up that and try what you said?
[04:53] <tehxed> SubMOA: That might be it. =\ I don't know much about stuff here. Just thought that might be it.
[04:53] <ardchoille> lisapc: I didn't, I boot sysresccd and use that to restore the images
[04:54] <Kioshen> ingrix, yeah since knoppix automounts your partitions IIRC
[04:54] <digi_> what would be the suggested folder for downloading the source before compiling?
[04:54] <SubMOA> well the only thing is... it's been months since I've upgraded... then, when I tried to, turns out you can't update firefox from the update manager... it's all greyed out.
[04:54] <lufis> SubMOA: yeah, i think you have to run it as root for the update mgr to work
[04:54] <d_> .
[04:54] <Kioshen> ingrix, and since you only need to chroot in it, you should be fin
[04:55] <lufis> SubMOA: gksudo firefox
[04:55] <SubMOA> all repos are updated
[04:55] <lisapc> ardchoille where can I download sysresccd?
[04:55] <lufis> SubMOA: do you mean ff's built-in manager or the apt one?
[04:55] <SubMOA> lufis,  I typed "sudo su" <enter> (entered password, of coarse) "firefox" <enter> still nothing
[04:55] <ingrix> Kioshen: Thank you so much for your help.  Hopefully it will work, but if not I will be back ;)
[04:55] <ardchoille> lisapc: using partimage, you have to have the partition you are copy/restoring on a different partition/drive than the image partimage is making/restoring.
[04:55] <SubMOA> ff's built in manager
[04:55] <lisapc> ardchoille should I dl this:  	systemrescuecd-x86-0.3.2.iso   ?
[04:55] <lufis> SubMOA: oh, hm
[04:55] <ardchoille> lisapc: http://sysresccd.org
[04:56] <lufis> SubMOA: try gksudo firefox
[04:56] <underdog5004> should I use the 9631 (new legacy) or the 7184 (legacy) for my Geforce2 go?
[04:56] <lisapc> ardchoille I have 2 partions.
[04:56] <ardchoille> lisapc: Me too, that's how I do it.. looking for a dl..
[04:56] <lisapc> ardchoille ty :)
[04:56] <OCgraphikz> wtf sudo: ./configure command not found
[04:56] <SubMOA> lufis, rgr
[04:57] <SubMOA> nope... no go
[04:57] <lufis> huh.
[04:57] <lufis> i dunno. and you say it doesn't work in apt?
[04:57] <lisapc> ardchoille is this the one I need? 0.3.2 Notes (2007-01-10 11:33)
[04:57] <lisapc>   	systemrescuecd-x86-0.3.2.iso
[04:57] <SubMOA> lufis, that's what I was thinking :O)
[04:57] <Ironman273> So what do you do if you changed your xorg.conf file and now Ubuntu doesn't make it into the login screen?
[04:57] <ardchoille> lisapc: I am using the live cd I got from the systemrescuecd-x86-0.3.2.iso and it works great. it has new tools and even a window manager.
[04:57] <_siegfried_> Hello! Can someone please help me share an ubuntu printer to windows clients?
[04:57] <OCgraphikz> got it
[04:57] <OCgraphikz> chmod
[04:57] <OCgraphikz> :p
[04:58] <SubMOA> well... I had version 2.0.0.1 when I before i apt'd and I know a 2.0.1 is out... so after apting, I am still at 2.0.0.1
[04:58] <SubMOA> so I assume...
[04:58] <ardchoille> lisapc: Yes, that's the one
[04:58] <lufis> SubMOA: well, for the time being, you can install it manually. download the tarball, extract it, move it to /opt and run /opt/firefox/firefox
[04:58] <SubMOA> hmm...
[04:58] <SubMOA> complete newb here...
[04:58] <lufis> SubMOA: have you got aim or something?
[04:58] <itguru> hi guys
[04:58] <burepe> I need Java 1.4.2 or higher. What package is that? Java-package?
[04:58] <lisapc> ardchoille so using that would be the same as using Norton Ghost or Acronis True Image>
[04:58] <itguru> how you all doing?
[04:59] <SubMOA> well, all this stress.. I need to go smoke, brb... then I'll try that.  Yes I do "Face2thehighfog"
[04:59] <lufis> hi itguru, im good
[04:59] <lufis> SubMOA: k
[04:59] <SubMOA> opps... I probably shouldn't have done that
[04:59] <SubMOA> ohh well
[04:59] <ardchoille> lisapc: Exactly, it was designed to be a norton ghost clone :)
[04:59] <lufis> :P
[04:59] <jeff22> how do I use ubuntu to connect to the internet
[04:59] <lisapc> ardchoille and its free :)
[04:59] <ardchoille> lisapc: It's extremely easy to use and partimage makes a copy of my 3Gb hdd in about 8 minutes.
[04:59] <ardchoille> lisapc: Yes :)
[04:59] <lisapc> ardchoille one last request. how can I download that file using resume. as it will take me a few days as im using dial up atm? :{P
[05:00] <Ironman273> So can anyone help my mess up?
[05:00] <itguru> I got a question, I just compiled a new driver for my wireless card - and it works, but when i plug in my card, the old driver loads aswell, how do i prevent this?
[05:00] <frankd3> !ntfs-3g
[05:00] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. It has been extensively tested but is still BETA software, so use it with caution.

[05:00] <d_> hello, i seem to be having a problem running an i386 live cd, i can get to the initial stage where it shows the screen after booting, i've made sure the cd was properly made and i can start the loading process, however when i run it, it doesnt make it to the second screen.  it just stops after about 1 minute or so.
[05:00] <P235> anyone know where I can find the networking applet for the kde panel?
[05:00] <ardchoille> lisapc: Not sure about resume.. that livecd ISO is 121 megabytes.
[05:00] <burepe> jeff22: plug in the cord and you should be good to go? what is your set up where you are?
[05:01] <pottie> kioshen I LOVEZOR YOU
[05:01] <jeff22> I think i need gnome-ppp

[05:01] <riich00> hi all, need help with wpa setup with knetwork manager
[05:02] <foxiness> if i want to change ubuntu to edubuntu ,is there a way by one click or step to get this done ?

[05:03] <ardchoille> lisapc: There are services that you canuse to pay a few dollars and have most any Linux distro or live cd shipped to you.
[05:03] <P235> riich00, do you know where to find the networking panel applet for kde?
[05:03] <h1st0> foxiness: yes sudo aptitude install edubuntu
[05:03] <OCgraphikz> the eggdrop compiler is detecting that my tcl version is too old, but I just installed ActiveTcl

[05:04] <h1st0> hrm.. :(
[05:04] <hwdyki> i just installed kubuntu on a p3 800 and am experiencing a very sluggish desktop. any way i can increase performance?
[05:05] <Ironman273> h1st0: In my infinite wisdom I decided to change my xorg.conf to try and get an Intellimouse Explorer to work and now it hangs before the login screen.
[05:05] <h1st0> d_: what type of video card do you have.
[05:05] <lufis> hwdyki: you can turn off effects... but you'd probably be happier with xfce
[05:05] <ardchoille> Mickeys: I don't mind paying a few dollars for a Linux distro when it takes a week to download it.
[05:05] <h1st0> Ironman273: do you have a backup of your xorg.conf
[05:05] <Kioshen> hwdyki, how much ram do you have ?
[05:05] <P235> riich00, in that case I'm not sure :(  There are forum posts dealing with wpa though
[05:05] <Ironman273> Yes :-)
[05:05] <hwdyki> lufis: running on minimal effects.
[05:05] <hwdyki> Kioshen: 128
[05:05] <d_> h1sto lemme check brb
[05:05] <lufis> hwdyki: xfce then :P
[05:05] <h1st0> Ironman273: well you can hit ctrl+alt+f1 and get a terminal to edit your xorg.conf back or replace it.
[05:05] <Kioshen> hwdyki, not enough for kde try xubuntu instead
[05:06] <ardchoille> lisapc: http://tinyurl.com/2c78kn
[05:06] <riich00> P235: I've had a look round, will try again... thanks
[05:06] <Kosssu> Got a tiny problem with sensors and conky. Conky says: can't open '/sys/bus/i2c/devices/0-0050/temp2_input   it there a way to edit where it seeks the info? can't find anyway of doing it
[05:06] <Mickeys> ardchoille: im not against that thought, what i dislike is the things i see, which i call the Novell pull
[05:06] <underdog5004> should I use the 9631 (new legacy) or the 7184 (legacy) for my Geforce2 go?
[05:06] <hwdyki> :(
[05:06] <h1st0> Ironman273: after you are done making the appropriate changes just sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart   and then ctrl+alt+f7 will get you back to X
[05:06] <kalorin> mkay
[05:06] <kalorin> so it's installed (finally)
[05:06] <kalorin> ati videocard
[05:06] <h1st0> d_: basically the only thing I would suggest trying is safe graphics mode.
[05:07] <Ironman273> h1st0: Even though it doesn't get to the login screen?  Is there a certain time I have to hit it?
[05:07] <Mickeys> Ubuntu was about to make the same pull, luckily it was wise, this time
[05:07] <lisapc> ardchoille where u from?
[05:07] <h1st0> Ironman273: whenever.
[05:07] <ardchoille> lisapc: I'm Scottish, living in Seattle WA.
[05:07] <h1st0> Ironman273: unless the computer is completely locked up.  Then you would have to select recovery mode from your boot menu.
[05:07] <d_> ok
[05:07] <Mickeys> ardchoille: I know you and you knew me, shit doesnt belong in a pure dist
[05:07] <lisapc> ardchoille u can send me a copy ?
[05:08] <d_> ya i dont know exactly where to find out what kind of video card
[05:08] <foxiness> h1st0: am upgrade the edubuntu by ubuntu dvd 6.10 from edubntu 6.06,and the upgrade process remove edubutnu-desktop and install ubuntu-desktop but steal appear like edubuntu "old theme" and with text-mode boot"no usplash"
[05:08] <h1st0> d_: if that doesn't work you could also try disabling some stuff like pcmcia acpi etc... all from the boot options menu.
[05:08] <TomSwift> hello
[05:08] <d_> running windows me
[05:08] <ardchoille> Mickeys: Please stop.
[05:08] <h1st0> foxiness: wow what now?
[05:08] <d_> i tried the safe mode
[05:08] <Mickeys> AssTitties ?
[05:08] <Ironman273> Well, the progress bar stops right before the end and some weird green line comes across the screen.  If I hit a key it kind of changes but then that's it
[05:08] <mortal5> how do I undelete a file in gnome?  I can't seem to find the trash folder
[05:08] <lufis> mortal5: in nautilus type trash:
[05:08] <d_> i know how to get to the boot options menu
[05:09] <ardchoille> lisapc: /join #ardchoille
[05:09] <h1st0> mortal5: .trash or something?
[05:09] <foxiness> h1st0: :) i want to change it first to ubuntu theme then i will go-back to edubuntu theme
[05:09] <h1st0> mortal5: hit ctrl+h in a nautilus window will show you hidden files your trash should be in there somewhere.
[05:09] <mortal5> found it
[05:10] <mortal5> ty
[05:10] <Ironman273> h1st0:  Is this the right syntax? "sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[05:10] <h1st0> foxiness: You just want the human theme?
[05:10] <h1st0> Ironman273: yeah if those file names are right.
[05:10] <foxiness> h1st0: all stuff u-splash,background ,icon etc
[05:10] <h1st0> "just give me your future we'll forget your past..."
[05:11] <Ironman273> h1st0: Where can I find all the Ctrl+F commands?
[05:11] <h1st0> foxiness: well you can add that without install ubuntu-desktop or edubuntu etc...  check out www.gnomelook.org
[05:11] <h1st0> foxiness: or art.gnome.org
[05:11] <h1st0> Ironman273: ctrl+f1 through f6 will be virtual terminals f7 will be X windows.
[05:11] <h1st0> Ironman273: most linux systems are setup that way.
[05:12] <jlamr> anyone know how to configure firefox to associate streaming audio w/gxine
[05:12] <Ironman273> h1st0: Thx, that's simple.  OK, hope this works
[05:12] <h1st0> Ironman273: np just sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart unless you are running kubuntu just sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart
[05:13] <h1st0> jlamr: search aptitude for plugins  also you can navigate firefox to about:plugins to see which are installed.
[05:13] <TheShrewdDude> Hello!
[05:13] <TheShrewdDude> Anyone know how I could convert a RealMedia video file to another format?
[05:14] <jlamr> thanks h1st0 -
[05:14] <h1st0> TheShrewdDude: VLC
[05:14] <TheShrewdDude> It doesn't support .RM files.
[05:14] <h1st0> TheShrewdDude:hrm....
[05:14] <h1st0> TheShrewdDude: google?
[05:15] <TheShrewdDude> Not much success there.
[05:15] <TheShrewdDude> There are a few shareware Windoze utilities but nothing useful for UNIX.
[05:15] <TheShrewdDude> Any suggestions?
[05:15] <h1st0> TheShrewdDude: well do you want to convert to mp3?
[05:15] <h1st0> TheShrewdDude: or are you talking about video?
[05:15] <TheShrewdDude> Video.
[05:16] <h1st0> hrm.. hold up
[05:16] <brian_> help! x keeps crashing on me every time i login
[05:16] <IcemanV9> can i install server from desktop CD (it's what i have now)??
[05:16] <hwdyki> how much ram does kde need?
[05:17] <h1st0> TheShrewdDude: mencoder and some ffmpeg solution maybe.
[05:17] <h1st0> IcemanV9: well not exactly.
[05:17] <Kioshen> hwdyki, stock kde is mostly 256 to be confortable
[05:17] <h1st0> IcemanV9: I guess its possible but you'd be better off just using alternate iso.
[05:17] <IcemanV9> brian_: check the log; cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[05:18] <h1st0> !requirements
[05:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about requirements - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:18] <IcemanV9> h1st0: ok.
[05:19] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso: i cant get where to change ... can u show me ?
[05:19] <h1st0> IcemanV9: It would be a real pita to do it with the desktop cd.  i.e. you'd have to make your own parts chroot to the drive and install ubuntu-server.
[05:19] <TheShrewdDude> h1st0: Any solutions?
[05:19] <h1st0> IcemanV9: err... you might want the server cd not the alternate iso.
[05:19] <h1st0> TheShrewdDude: mencoder?
[05:19] <brian_> what do i do with the output?
[05:20] <h1st0> TheShrewdDude: http://www.thugsatbay.com/tab/?q=tab-video-converter-encoder
[05:20] <Ironman273> h1st0: I'm back in Ubuntu but now I get a HAL error  at bootup
[05:20] <Kioshen> TheShrewdDude, I guess transcode can help you
[05:20] <TheShrewdDude> Will try the link
[05:20] <h1st0> Ironman273: do you know what the error is exactly?  And also what else did you change?
[05:21] <h1st0> TheShrewdDude: basically there are several ways of doing it.
[05:21] <IcemanV9> h1st0: i didn't want to d/l another iso just for "server" install ... i should have stick with alternative as i believe it provides pretty much everything opposite to desktop or server only
[05:21] <tonyyarusso> Zero9983: mods-available/dir.conf:          DirectoryIndex index.html index.cgi index.pl index.php index.xhtml
[05:21] <h1st0> TheShrewdDude: you may want to search the forums. ubuntuforums.org
[05:21] <brian_> is there a way to reset the panels? because I was playing with it when it crashed
[05:21] <TheShrewdDude> Already searched the forums. Not much help there either.
[05:21] <Ironman273> h1st0: I was trying to follow this guide: http://dotnet.org.za/matt/pages/39097.aspx
[05:21] <h1st0> IcemanV9: I dunno if the alternate has server install selection?
[05:21] <h1st0> can't remember
[05:21] <Ironman273> h1st0: I obviously did something wrong because my mouswheel is now sending the Firefox pages forward and back :-(
[05:21] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso: i changed index.html to abc.html , correct ?
[05:22] <tonyyarusso> Zero9983: yeah
[05:22] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso: but cant , why like that ?
[05:22] <IcemanV9> h1st0: me, either. i do know that hoary & breezy do have those. :)
[05:23] <h1st0> IcemanV9: I just run a gui on my server anyh00t dont' really see the reason not to now-a-days hardware wise.  Makes my job less of a headache.
[05:23] <brian_> can someone help me? my comp is totally unusable right now
[05:23] <h1st0> !ask | brian_
[05:23] <ubotu> brian_: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:23] <tonyyarusso> Zero9983: What do you mean?
[05:23] <IcemanV9> h1st0: blah humbug. i'm going to find out (booting up vbox).
[05:23] <h1st0> IcemanV9: Oh yeah I forgot I had a virtual machine I could have checked also ah well
[05:23] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso: u go see using my ip address then u know
[05:24] <brian_> is there a way to reset the panels from a terminal?
[05:24] <Ironman273> h1st0:  What's the sudo command to delete a file?
[05:24] <Ironman273> !delete
[05:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about delete - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:24] <Ironman273> !del
[05:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about del - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:25] <DarthLappy> Ironman273: rm file
[05:25] <tonyyarusso> Zero9983: Reload apache after making config changes.
[05:25] <Zero9983> Ironman273: sudo rm
[05:25] <Ironman273> thx
[05:25] <brian_> how do i reconfigure x?
[05:25] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso:  u mean restart apache servre after make any changes ? and how to restart ?
[05:25] <tonyyarusso> brian_: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:25] <h1st0> Ironman273: sudo rm
[05:26] <tonyyarusso> Zero9983: sudo invoke-rc.d apache restart
[05:26] <siavash> how do you install a .run file command line?
[05:26] <Ironman273> h1st0: thx
[05:26] <h1st0> brian_: what panels do you mean?
[05:26] <chupie> ok, i'm trying to setup dual monitors.. how can i see what each video card pci address is?
[05:26] <brian_> the gnome panels.  I was resizing them when my computer crashed
[05:26] <h1st0> chupie: lspci | grep VGA
[05:26] <h1st0> maybe?
[05:27] <Ironman273> h1sto: Can I log out and back in to test my settings or do I need a full reboot?
[05:27] <DarthLappy> siavash: Make sure it's executable and while in the same directory, type ./file.run (obviously replacing the filename there)
[05:27] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso:  invoke-rc.d: unknown initscript, /etc/init.d/apache not found.
[05:27] <Zero9983>  ?
[05:27] <h1st0> Ironman273: settings for your xorg?
[05:27] <tlegistrae> exit
[05:27] <h1st0> Ironman273: ctrl+alt+backspace will restart X  or if your in a terminal just sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart will restart it.
[05:28] <badfinger> Zero9983 use apache2
[05:28] <ubuntu> Hello!
[05:28] <Ironman273> h1st0: And there was another change in startup.conf
[05:28] <Mr`Me> im getting the error "no root file system is defined" when i try to install ubuntu onto a compaq smart array, can anyone help me out?
[05:28] <Zero9983> thanks ... forgot
[05:28] <h1st0> Ironhand: you technically don't have to reboot to do anything in linux.
[05:28] <emun> hi, need some help with installing a Brother hl 5040 printer on ubuntu
[05:28] <ingrix> Is copying the kernel module build files not allowed or something?  I tried to do it and they disappeared for some reason.
[05:28] <tonyyarusso> Zero9983: Yeah, sorry.  tab-complete it :)
[05:29] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso: never mind
[05:29] <bulmer> Mr`Me: whats a smart array? is that like raid array?
[05:29] <Mr`Me> yeah its a raid
[05:29] <Mr`Me> i've never installed on a raid so im totally lost
[05:29] <DarthLappy> h1st0: What about using a new kernel...?
[05:29] <GionnyBoss> is linux-generic optimized for HT processors too? on Fedora Core I had a kernel smp, but here I see that linux-686-smp is obsoleted
[05:30] <Zero9983> tonyyarusso: thanks ... can already
[05:30] <Zero9983> ^.^
[05:30] <h1st0> DarthLappy: chroot etc..
[05:30] <OCgraphikz> wow
[05:30] <Ironman273> h1st0: My mouse is back to normal but I'm still getting this error at bootup: "Failed to initialize HAL!"
[05:30] <OCgraphikz> eggdrop is not seeing my TCLs
[05:30] <ingrix> Kioshen: If you're still here, I found out what the problem was.  When I had logged into the other kernel, I had unwittingly removed a file that wasn't needed with ndiswrapper while trying to start it, then when I would boot the otehr it would throw up a red flag
[05:30] <bulmer> Mr`Me umm..maybe you can install /boot in a specific non raid partition and the rest on raid 5?
[05:30] <DarthLappy> h1st0: Heh.
[05:30] <tonyyarusso> GionnyBoss: Yeah, -generic does HT now
[05:30] <IcemanV9> h1st0: just type "server" with alternative :) btw, which virtual machine do u run with? (me, virtualbox)
[05:30] <GionnyBoss> tonyyarusso: thanks for the answer :)
[05:30] <Kioshen> ingrix, cool glad to see you up and running again :)
[05:31] <h1st0> IcemanV9: currently using qemu with the kqemu module.
[05:31] <DARKGuy> hey people, how it's going? ^^ anybody knows how to set up Thunderbird to use a "shared folder" between Linux and Windows? (I have IFS Drives extension for the control panel, meaning I can use my Linux drive inside Windows)
[05:31] <siavash> After i installed ubuntu, when X loads the screen is just peach with the mouse there. No desktop. Any help?
[05:31] <IdleOne> OCgraphikz, install tcl8.4-dev and tk8.4-dev
[05:32] <Prophet> Anyone familiar with connecting to a WPA-TKIP secured network in Ubuntu?
[05:32] <transgress> Prophet: you want to get network-manager-gnome if your wifi card is working
[05:32] <emun> please can anybody help me with installing a Brother laser printer
[05:32] <transgress> Prophet: if not, then you need to setup your wireless then get that
[05:32] <Ironman273> !HAL
[05:32] <ubotu> hal: Hardware Abstraction Layer. In component main, is optional. Version 0.5.7.1-0ubuntu17 (edgy), package size 347 kB, installed size 1112 kB
[05:32] <lufis> siavash: run "nautilus"
[05:32] <ingrix> Kioshen: Yeah.  I am too ;)  So do you know if you can't copy the kernel module build files?  I tried and they disappeared
[05:32] <Ironman273> !failed to start hal
[05:32] <IcemanV9> h1st0: heh. on another box, i used qemu w/ kqemu. so i thought i could try virtualbox and see how it goes.
[05:33] <siavash> lufis: I will try after reboot. I just installed my latest ati driver hoping its that
[05:33] <h1st0> IcemanV9: any difference?
[05:33] <Prophet> I've tried working with the /etc/network/interfaces file, but I can't get it to connecct
[05:33] <bulmer> Prophet: have it worked without the WPA security stuff?
[05:33] <DARKGuy> Anybody knows how to set up Thunderbird to use a "shared folder" for emails between Linux and Windows? (I have IFS Drives extension for the control panel, meaning I can use my Linux drive inside Windows)
[05:34] <siavash> lufis: it says there is no display because im running terminal only
[05:34] <siavash> lufis: let me try changing my session to failsafe terminal?
[05:34] <Openix> DARKGuy: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Sharing_a_profile_between_Windows_and_Linux
[05:34] <Prophet> bulmer: I'm not sure, my network has been set to WPA-TKIP the whole time, but the card works fine with Windows
[05:34] <DARKGuy> Openix, thanks!
[05:34] <IcemanV9> h1st0: looks like pretty much the same, but it seems that virtualbox is responding faster than qemu.
[05:34] <lufis> siavash: run startx
[05:35] <IdleOne> siavash, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop ( that will installthe ubuntu GUI )
[05:35] <h1st0> Ironman273: yeah maybe search around the forums for your specific error.
[05:35] <h1st0> IcemanV9: hrm..
[05:35] <bulmer> Prophet: but your wifi card may not have the driver that supports WPA..like my ACX111 chip
[05:35] <h1st0> IcemanV9: Yeah I might have to check it out.
[05:35] <Ironman273> h1st0: OK, thanks
[05:35] <siavash> lufis: says it is already running in display 0
[05:35] <Kioshen> ingrix, which files ? those in /lib/modules-`uname -r` ?
[05:35] <bulmer> in linux that is
[05:35] <Openix> DARKGuy: google :)
[05:35] <lufis> siavash: hm, i dunno. press ctrl alt f7
[05:36] <Prophet> bulmer: I've tried using ndiswrapper to load drivers, but that didn't work either, did you do it a different way?
[05:36] <siavash> lufis: tried doing nautilus but says Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
[05:37] <bulmer> Prophet: my ACX111 chip works without the ndiswrapper, it just does not support WPA that am aware of
[05:37] <mindstate> if you install / download something using the live -cd does it get erased once you reboot?
[05:37] <ardchoille> mindstate: yes
[05:37] <IcemanV9> i thinks xload -remote <host> is broken :/
[05:37] <bulmer> Prophet: which chip does your client wifi have?
[05:37] <ingrix> Kioshen: Yeah, those
[05:37] <mindstate> ardchoille, where do the files save to?
[05:37] <h1st0> "hold on little girl show me what he's done to you"
[05:37] <ingrix> Kioshen: They left, and now I have to find them again
[05:38] <h1st0> "come on baby come on over, let me be the one to show you"
[05:38] <ardchoille> mindstate: On a livecd, everything is kept and run in ram. ram gets reset upon reboot.
[05:38] <h1st0> "I'm the one who wants to be with you...."
[05:38] <h1st0> Wow blast from the past.
[05:38] <h1st0> sry
[05:38] <Prophet> bulmer: I'm using a Netgear WG511, it uses the Prism54/Duette chipset
[05:38] <mindstate> mindstate, ah i see, thanks :)
[05:38] <kalorin> anyone here an Xwindows guru?
[05:38] <Kioshen> ingrix, I'm afraid I won't be any use on this topic .. I come from a Gentoo background and I haven't learned the "Debian way" of managing kernel stuff yet
[05:39] <ardchoille> mindstate: However, you can download things in the livecd and save them to the hard drive or usb key or other media and keep them.
[05:40] <bulmer> ardchoille: umm that didnt seem to read correct, add things to livecd? or am mis-reading you?
[05:40] <ingrix> Kioshen: Ok, thanks anyways.  I just wanted to know what the deal was, since I tried to copy them and they got deleted
[05:40] <mindstate> ardchoille, does that only apply to things i d/l via apt-get or for things like mp3 as well?
[05:40] <IcemanV9> !ask | kalorin
[05:40] <ubotu> kalorin: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:40] <wheels3572> How can I tell what version of Xfce im running?
[05:40] <kalorin> he
[05:40] <eL_ZaYa> :O
[05:40] <kalorin> well I've got a radeon x700
[05:40] <ardchoille> mindstate: That applies to anything you donwload in a livecd, via firefox, wget, etc.
[05:40] <h1st0> wheels3572: the desktop config.
[05:40] <cables> Is it just me or is Automatix no more? *crosses fingers*
[05:40] <bulmer> Prophet: find out what the linux drivers are used for those
[05:41] <ardchoille> bulmer: Talking about saving downloaded stuff when in a livecd
[05:41] <kalorin> and after a lot of looking around I managed to get ubuntu installed, and actually got it displaying to both monitors
[05:41] <kalorin> but i can't drag any apps onto the other monitor
[05:41] <h1st0> cables: automatix is the devil.
[05:41] <dr_Dark> Hi
[05:41] <mindstate> ardchoille, ok cool thats awesome
[05:41] <h1st0> cables: its nto that hard just to install the software yourself.
[05:41] <kalorin> any ideas?
[05:41] <Kioshen> h1st0, well the idea was good
[05:41] <h1st0> !automatix
[05:41] <ubotu> automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[05:41] <cables> h1st0, I know... but someone on DIgg said that it was gone, and I looked, and the webpage was down.
[05:41] <bulmer> ardchoille: ah okay..can one then just chroot to that ramdisk?
[05:42] <kalorin> the mouse cursor will slide over there nicely, but if I try to drag a window, it just bounced to the next virtual desktop
[05:42] <cables> h1st0, I'm saying that if it's gone it's a good thing
[05:42] <h1st0> cables: That would be nice.
[05:42] <ardchoille> bulmer: I dunno, never tried that.
[05:42] <h1st0> cables: I would assume they will be gone with the next release of ubuntu especially since we have easy codec install etc...
[05:42] <IcemanV9> cables: aptitude is THE way to go instead of automatix :)
[05:42] <bulmer> ardchoille: i have not tried it on ubuntu livecd but on suse it works great
[05:43] <cables> h1st0, I really hope so. I unfortunately used it back in Dapper and had to reinstall from scratch to upgrade to Edgy.
[05:43] <TheShrewdDude> Hey guys.
[05:43] <ardchoille> bulmer: Well, being that it's in ram, it would get erased upon boot, no?
[05:43] <TheShrewdDude> I installed MPlayer, but it's missing lots of libraries.
[05:43] <TheShrewdDude> How might I fix this?
[05:43] <wheels3572> h1st0, How do I get to the desktop config?
[05:43] <bruenig> apt-get is the way to go
[05:43] <kalorin> heh
[05:43] <h1st0> !codecs | TheShrewdDude
[05:43] <ubotu> TheShrewdDude: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[05:43] <kalorin> reboot, under linux? what's that?
[05:43] <kalorin> :)
[05:43] <h1st0> kalorin: sudo shutdown -r !
[05:43] <bulmer> ardchoille: yes at reboot
[05:43] <kalorin> heh
[05:43] <foxiness> the next ubuntu will solve alot of common problem on current release
[05:44] <DARKGuy> Actually, installing the codecs the way ubotu shows does exactly the same thing that automatix does - it just takes a lot more typing ;)
[05:44] <h1st0> foxiness: I can't believe edgy was released. but oh well.
[05:44] <cables> IcemanV9, I disagree... you can't install everything from aptitude. Automatix was a good idea because it automated the process of downloading additional packages not in the repos. However, their implementation just completely sucked.
[05:44] <kalorin> well I'm going to give this a whirl for a few days and if I can't get it to do all the things I want/need it'll be back to XP sadly
[05:44] <ardchoille> h1st0: lol
[05:44] <kalorin> no cash for another box
[05:44] <cables> DARKGuy, foxiness, Automatix installed things that the repos didn't have. Good idea, bad implementation.
[05:44] <h1st0> DARKGuy: not really you can combine lines like sudo aptitude install gstreamer-whatever gstreamer-whatever2  etc.....
[05:44] <Ironman273> If there are updates for programs does Synaptic automatically update also?
[05:44] <wheels3572> h1st0, you said to edit the desktop config?
[05:45] <kalorin> I figure I can do about 80% of what I need under X but photoshop is a must
[05:45] <h1st0> DARKGuy: also hit tab to autocomplete.
[05:45] <bruenig> DARKGuy, it takes far less typing, it takes a highlight and paste, automatix is many highlights and pastes to install it
[05:45] <cables> Ironman273, APT does... that's different from synaptic.
[05:45] <h1st0> wheels3572: huh?  no right click ont he desktop and poke around in the settings for about or you could apt-cache showpkg XFCE
[05:45] <kalorin> there seems like a lot of stuff that isn't available I'm surprised about
[05:45] <Ironman273> cables: And what is APT?
[05:45] <h1st0> wheels3572: or better yet dpkg -l | grep XFCE
[05:45] <DARKGuy> h1st0, I know about autocomplete :P and I blame google for not having it!
[05:45] <h1st0> lol
[05:45] <kalorin> a reasonably current version of xchat for instance
[05:45] <siavash> lufis: i got x to start in terminal
[05:46] <lufis> siavash: yay
[05:46] <DARKGuy> bruenig, well, that's right o.o
[05:46] <siavash> lufis: but it does the sam thing with different background
[05:46] <cables> Ironman273, that's the package management subsystem that Synaptic, apt-get, aptitude, update-manager, and other things use to manage software.
[05:46] <wheels3572> h1st0, see that's my issue I cant get my desktop to work at all lol no right clicking works and cant save files to it lol
[05:46] <kalorin> ok next is open office I guess
[05:46] <Ironman273> If I use apt-get will it get the latest version?
[05:46] <cables> Ironman273, anything installed with synaptic, add/remove, aptitude, and apt-get will be automatically updated by update-manager
[05:46] <bruenig> wheels3572, yeah I noticed that on xfce too, it is sketchy. Luckily I keep the desktop clean so it doesn't matter.
[05:46] <ardchoille> wheels3572: run nautilus and then see if right clicking works
[05:46] <Ironman273> cables: ahh
[05:46] <violot> What are all the font packages in Ubuntu that install all the lame fonts
[05:47] <cables> Ironman273, you'll get the latest version in the Ubuntu repositories.
[05:47] <elyon225> I've been trying to use ffmpeg to convert a .ogg file... but every time it just ends up a corrupted video.  Any ideas?
[05:47] <h1st0> wheels3572: well ctrl+alt+f1 then dpkg -l | grep XFCE  then ctrl+alt+f7 to get back to X
[05:47] <violot> The fonts that look like they came from an MS Word package
[05:47] <hwdyki> how do i enable mp3 support?
[05:47] <cables> !mp3 | hwdyki
[05:47] <ubotu> hwdyki: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[05:47] <bruenig> !info msttcorefonts
[05:47] <ubotu> msttcorefonts: Installer for Microsoft TrueType core fonts. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1.2ubuntu3 (edgy), package size 22 kB, installed size 164 kB
[05:47] <violot> bruenig, no, the silly fonts
[05:47] <violot> That are not MS
[05:47] <wheels3572> bruenig, so you cant save either to the desktop
[05:47] <wheels3572> ?
[05:47] <kalorin> so anyone able to answer the X question about dragging windows from one monitor to the other?
[05:47] <siavash> lufis: normally i remember ubuntu had a screen where it would show stuff running at the beginning, a rectangular window in the middle
[05:48] <h1st0> kalorin: should just work.
[05:48] <kalorin> well it kind of works
[05:48] <h1st0> kalorin: especially if you are splitting the desktop and not workspaces.
[05:48] <Ironman273> cables: for example, GAIM that comes in the repositories is 2.0beta3.1.  The GAIM website says that they released beta6.  When does it get updated in the repositories?
[05:48] <bruenig> wheels3572, I can save to the desktop, but it doesn't show up on the desktop, it does show up in thunar on the desktop and in the terminal on the desktop too. You can activate the desktop though, it just comes undone and is tiresome. Go to Applications>settings>desktop settings and allow xfce to manage desktop
[05:48] <lufis> siavash: yeah
[05:48] <kalorin> the mouse will go over but windows just flop to the next virtual desktop
[05:49] <lufis> siavash: when it's initiating nautilus and everything
[05:49] <bruenig> Ironman273, when they feel like packaging it, there is a third party repo that has beta6
[05:49] <ardchoille> Ironman273: it doesn't. Once Ubuntu is released, the only things you get in the repo's are bug fixes and security updates.
[05:49] <cables> Ironman273, most likely it won't be updated in the edgy repositories. You'll have to manually install it, or just wait for Fesity.
[05:49] <cables> *Feisty
[05:49] <IcemanV9> Ironman273: sometimes in backports or next release
[05:49] <ardchoille> cables: Fesity? Starting your own distro ;)
[05:50] <cables> Ironman273, there's a Backports repository that has newer stuff, but Gaim 2 Beta 6 isn't there yet.
[05:50] <h1st0> kalorin: is the second monitor set up to display a different desktop?
[05:50] <kalorin> not really sure
[05:50] <kalorin> I just got it installed
[05:50] <kalorin> and I can't find anything to tell
[05:50] <OCgraphikz> mkfile, right?
[05:50] <h1st0> kalorin: does it have its own start etc..
[05:50] <Ironman273> cables: OK, I think I'm still too wet behind the ears to start messing with that.  This'll do for now
[05:50] <wheels3572> would it be the environment panel?
[05:50] <kalorin> there's no taskbar or anything
[05:50] <bruenig> Ironhand, you can get beta 6 if you want http://repository.debuntu.org/
[05:50] <ardchoille> I am soooo hoping that Feisty will be as rock-sloid as Dapper is.
[05:50] <bruenig> Ironman273 ^
[05:51] <elyon225> Also... how can I use Synaptic to preview the changes before actually applying them?  This is an obvious option in Adept, but I can't find it in Synaptic...
[05:51] <wheels3572> bruenig, ok gotcha :)
[05:52] <IcemanV9> Ironman273: you can request for it to be in backports; sometimes they rather put it in the next version (even though dapper is LTS) :/
[05:52] <p47> hello ! I have some problems with ubuntu... firefox is very slow, can you help me ?
[05:52] <bruenig> p47, vague
[05:53] <verb3k> I need your help .......I have nvidia Graphics card and I installed the binary driver ...but doesn't work ... and I read that I should install some modules but I don't know which to choose .....I am running Feisty Fawn herd4
[05:53] <Ironman273> Do things like Firefox update automatically?  Say from 2.0.0.1 to 2.0.0.2?
[05:53] <ardchoille> Ironman273: no
[05:53] <kalorin> it shows 2 separate screens
[05:53] <h1st0> verb3k: fiesty support is in #ubuntu+1
[05:53] <verb3k> Sorry
[05:53] <h1st0> verb3k: if you join there i'll help you.
[05:53] <kalorin> just no way to make it do anything on the other one
[05:53] <p47> bruenig: what ?
[05:53] <verb3k> Thanks
[05:53] <violot> What package installs the fonts like: aakar, alhor, albattar
[05:53] <h1st0> !fonts
[05:53] <ubotu> Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[05:53] <h1st0> !aakar
[05:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about aakar - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:54] <bruenig> p47, that is far to vague
[05:54] <cables> #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:54] <ardchoille> p47: Your question was vague. Can we have more details? It'll help us help you.
[05:54] <h1st0> Ironman273: if they update it in the repos it will.
[05:54] <cables> sorry, missed the /join
[05:54] <TooR4u> is there any tool other than gaim ...and that should be relayable....
[05:55] <TooR4u> because my gaim is crashing while stating
[05:55] <Ironman273> h1st0: So it's not like a new version gets released, you download the install and upgrade?
[05:55] <p47> bruenig: ardchoille: I have a godd conexion and I have 3 machines here with windows and all those machines have a good conexion but with ubuntu all run slow, just the internet
[05:56] <h1st0> Ironman273: not exactly a new package gets released then it prompts you to upgrade if they add it.  Although I think with stuff like that they wait untill the next distro.  So they don't create problems
[05:56] <NETWizz> I saw ubuntu linux selling in Fry's electronics
[05:57] <IcemanV9> NETWizz: that's terrific. one step closer to close ubuntu #1 bug. ;)
[05:57] <ardchoille> p47: You on Dapper?
[05:58] <wheels3572> Arch or bruenig can you help me here
[05:58] <NETWizz> I am on Edgy
[05:58] <ardchoille> wheels3572: With what? I can try.
[05:58] <NETWizz> Anyway, They were selling Dapper
[05:58] <wheels3572> ardchoille, or bruenig !! Please install GLib 2.6.0 or above and the GLib development files.
[05:58] <NETWizz> The thing I don't like is that they were carging $199 for it
[05:58] <gop> hello
[05:59] <gop> for  some reason
[05:59] <gop> I had to log on via rescue
[05:59] <NETWizz> Comes with 1 year of support
[05:59] <gop> all I get is a black video
[05:59] <wheels3572> ardchoille, important that you install GModule, which is part of GLib as well. GLib can be downloaded from http://www.gtk.org
[05:59] <bruenig> Ironman273, to install gaim 6, do this, copy and paste it all at once: echo "deb  http://repository.debuntu.org/ edgy multiverse" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list && wget http://repository.debuntu.org/GPG-Key-chantra.txt && sudo apt-key add GPG-Key-chantra.txt && rm GPG-Key-chantra.txt && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[05:59] <IcemanV9> !enter |gop
[05:59] <ubotu> gop: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[05:59] <NETWizz> and a 30 day money back guarantee for $199
[05:59] <cellofellow> I've been using Fluxbox in conjunction with ROX, and it's been causing X to randomly go crazy, peg the CPU, and effectively freeze the system. Only thing I can do is SSH in and sudo killall -9 Xorg. Why would it be doing this and how do I fix it?
[05:59] <ardchoille> wheels3572: Not able to do that ATM.
[05:59] <gop> after using envy know I don't see video at all
[05:59] <wheels3572> ardchoille, I cant find 2.6.0 or above
[05:59] <wheels3572> ardchoille, ok
[05:59] <gop> after a reboot, I don't see no video hmm
[05:59] <wheels3572> ardchoille, not in the repos huh?
[06:00] <shwag> anyone installed onto a mac ?  Trying to get the bootloader to work.
[06:00] <Ironman273> bruenig: it tells me "2 not upgraded" at the end
[06:00] <TheShrewdDude> I've installed MPlayer via Synaptic, but it gives me error messages whenever I open a file.
[06:00] <h1st0> !mac | shwag
[06:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mac - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:00] <bruenig> Ironman273, ok do sudo apt-get install gaim
[06:01] <h1st0> hrm..
[06:01] <ardchoille> wheels3572: Well, I don't install anything unless it's in the repos.. this is why I have never had any problems in Dapper.
[06:01] <TheShrewdDude> It tells me that I need to define things on compile.
[06:01] <IcemanV9> cellofellow: check the log file; cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log or dmesg
[06:01] <TheShrewdDude> Except that I used synaptic.
[06:01] <TheShrewdDude> How can I fix this?

[06:01] <TheShrewdDude> Oh c'mon.
[06:01] <digi_> ok so im trying to compile rhythmbox with ipod writing and I have the libgpod-dev but it says configure: error: iPod explicitly requested but libgpod couldn't be found
[06:02] <ardchoille> TheShrewdDude: It would help if we knew what the error messages were.
[06:02] <jin> ubuntu is not very good, 1 time to install windows xp on my new comp total time spent configuring lessthan 1 min, 4 tries with xubuntu still fails to even run live cd once
[06:02] <bruenig> digi_, just a shot "sudo apt-get install libgpod0 libgpod-common"
[06:02] <TheShrewdDude> Cannot find codec matching selected -vo and video format.
[06:03] <ardchoille> TheShrewdDude: Are you trying to play a wmv file?
[06:03] <TheShrewdDude> A realmedia file, actually.
[06:03] <digi_> libgpod0 is already the newest version.
[06:03] <digi_> libgpod-common is already the newest version.
[06:03] <IdleOne> jin, sorry to hear that. maybe you should just stick with windows
[06:03] <wheels3572> ardchoille, ohhhh gotcha.  I was told to try the Xfce4.4 was told it fixes the desktop issue
[06:03] <ardchoille> TheShrewdDude: Sounds like you don't have the codecs for that file
[06:03] <IcemanV9> jin: why xubuntu on a NEW computer?? just install ubuntu (alternative CD).
[06:03] <TheShrewdDude> Gee, I wonder.
[06:04] <ericrost> well, I got that gateway laptop up and going in Ubuntu, the 17" widescreen goodness rocks
[06:04] <TheShrewdDude> So how might I go about fixing that? :P

[06:04] <TheShrewdDude> Thanks guys. :)
[06:04] <jin> IcemanCZ:  so i figured xfce is better.  im trying to run the live cd off
[06:05] <jin> ericrost: im trying to run the live cd

[06:06] <quaal> cant find anything for ubuntu on it
[06:06] <quaal> must i download and build my own?
[06:06] <ericrost> is it by any chance the integrated intel video chipset?
[06:07] <jin> ericrost when i try to run live cd it will stall at adding cd user or go through but give me I/O error
[06:07] <nr0t> whats a good chan for nvidia driver help?
[06:07] <ardchoille> quaal: Dapper has python 2.4.3, I am thinking Edgy has 2.4.4 or better.
[06:07] <NETWizz> @Jin, that is the VIA video; I think
[06:07] <NETWizz> Just add a video card
[06:07] <NETWizz> and disable that in Bios then install Ubuntu
[06:08] <NETWizz> Question for you.  Did it not come with a heatsink?
[06:08] <quaal> ardchoille, is there a way to check python version? my problem is this /usr/bin/pymol: 8: python2.4.4: not found
[06:08] <quaal> when i try to run pymol
[06:08] <NETWizz> I bet Fry's did not include a CPU cooler
[06:08] <jin> NETWizz so Via cards are known to have problem? i thought i was safe cuz unihrome come with linux drivers on their driver cd yeah
[06:08] <jin> NETWizz:  no fan
[06:09] <jin> NETWizz:  i spent 25 bucks for a thermal take one but the combo only cost me 100 total so its still ok deal
[06:09] <ardchoille> quaal: python -V
[06:09] <NETWizz> The ThermalTake one should be $20
[06:09] <NETWizz> and that combo should be $70
[06:10] <NETWizz> It is a crappy motherboard though
[06:10] <ericrost> jin: not familiar enough with the installer to know the steps, just was wondering if you were running into the same pitfalls I hit with this laptop.. anyhow, back to getting the stuff I want on my lappy :)
[06:10] <quaal> ardchoille, Python 2.4.4c1
[06:10] <quaal> hmm
[06:10] <quaal> something wrong with pymol
[06:10] <jin> NETWizz oh i bought the bigger one jungle512 and yeah the combo is 70 i meant with the cpu cooler together 100 total : )
[06:11] <TooR4u> is there any tool other than gaim ...and that should be relayable....
[06:11] <TooR4u> because my gaim is crashing while stating
[06:11] <kalorin> ok got the video going to both screens now
[06:11] <ardchoille> TooR4u: Try running gaim from a terminal and see if there is any error output. It may help you figure out why it's crashing.
[06:11] <kalorin> xinerama
[06:11] <kalorin> :)
[06:11] <TooR4u> yah

[06:14] <TooR4u> & how to remove broken packages installed in our system?
[06:16] <h1st0> TooR4u: sudo aptitude remove <packagename>
[06:16] <Ironman273> If a software says it's for different distros (debian,mandriva,suse, etc.) which one would work in Ubuntu?
[06:16] <h1st0> Ironman273: well you should use ubuntu software for instance what are you trying to install?
[06:17] <Hasrat_USA> Ironman273: debian
[06:17] <bruenig> debian is generally ok to use
[06:17] <jin> does anyone have a linky on how to install ubuntu from a USB stick?
[06:17] <Ironman273> h1st0:  Nothing specific.  I'm just looking around and see software that has different distros listed.  Right now I'm just trying to learn about Linux and understand it a little.
[06:18] <h1st0> Ironman273: well you will find in synaptic most software is there that you could ever need.  You may want to enable universe and multiverse.
[06:18] <h1st0> !installing
[06:18] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues
[06:18] <bruenig> Ironman273, did that gaim thing work
[06:18] <h1st0> !synaptic
[06:18] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[06:18] <h1st0> Ironman273: follow the link on synaptic howto from ubotu
[06:18] <bruenig> sudo apt-get remove synaptic
[06:18] <Ironman273> bruenig: Yes it did.  Thanks for the help.  Sorry I didn't confirm it before, I started to read stuff and got a little lost in it.
[06:18] <lorens> can someone explain why repositories go up and down more than any other net point of presence I have used? Namely, extra posted repositories from ubuntuforums?
[06:19] <bruenig> Ironman273, ok good
[06:19] <jin> Ironman273:  if u just started learning i suggest www.tldp.org very fun reading and way better than bs ubuntu books u can buy from bookstore
[06:19] <siimo>  hi any one has any idea what this thing on the left of the screen is? http://img138.imageshack.us/img138/5900/edgy2qd3.png
[06:19] <bruenig> siimo, conky
[06:19] <Ironman273> jin: Thanks, I'll bookmark it to read up on it
[06:20] <h1st0> siimo: yeah thats conky there are howto's in teh forums to get that working.
[06:20] <siimo> thanks
[06:20] <bruenig> siimo, here is mine, it is so much better http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m290/bruenig/12182006.png
[06:20] <bruenig> well not really but I like to brag
[06:20] <ardchoille> bruenig: Is that root-tail?
[06:20] <bruenig> root-tail?
[06:21] <Ironman273> So how are Linux, Debian, Ubuntu and Gnome related?  (I know that's probably a dumb n00b question)
[06:21] <siimo> h1st0: got a link? i did a search but its not coming up with it
[06:21] <ardchoille> bruenig: That meter in the top right of that screenie
[06:21] <h1st0> !conky
[06:21] <ubotu> conky: highly configurable system monitor for X based on torsmo. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.4.2-1 (edgy), package size 118 kB, installed size 376 kB
[06:21] <bruenig> ardchoille, which one? the download upload meters
[06:21] <h1st0> siimo: well you can just install it from synaptic or sudo aptitude install conky
[06:21] <ardchoille> bruenig: Oh, I think it's conky
[06:22] <h1st0> siimo: the configuration file will be created after you run it in your home folder .conkyrc  you edit that to chang the way it appears etc...
[06:22] <acid_phyre> is automatix down?
[06:22] <bruenig> Ironman273, linux is the general name of all the distros based on the linux kernel, ubuntu is based on debian, gnome is a desktop environment that can be run on any distro including ubuntu
[06:22] <bruenig> ardchoille, right, that was what I was showing
[06:22] <bruenig> acid_phyre, thankfully
[06:22] <h1st0> acid_phyre: yes
[06:23] <acid_phyre> whys that
[06:23] <h1st0> acid_phyre: just install the easier way.
[06:23] <acid_phyre> what happened
[06:23] <acid_phyre> easier lol
[06:23] <h1st0> acid_phyre: who knows.  ITs not supported here.
[06:23] <siimo> h1st0: i meant forum link
[06:23] <h3h_timo> could anyone explain to me how to optimize ubuntu's bootup process for a dual core machine??
[06:23] <bruenig> acid_phyre, ice storm knocked out their host
[06:23] <acid_phyre> how is automatix not easy
[06:23] <h1st0> acid_phyre: yes easier.  Considering I can install everything automatix did in a single command.
[06:23] <bruenig> acid_phyre, god hates automatix
[06:23] <Ironman273> bruenig: So roughly it's Linux -> Debian -> Ubuntu which can branch out to Gnome or KDE (with kubuntu)?
[06:23] <TheShrewdDude> Ok, so I installed realplayer for my RM files.
[06:23] <lorens> h3h_timo l like that question!
[06:24] <TheShrewdDude> When it plays them, it screws up the pitch so that everything sounds like cows.
[06:24] <TheShrewdDude> How can I fix this?
[06:24] <bruenig> Ironman273, yeah, and gnome and kde can go on debian too
[06:24] <bruenig> it is just like a piece of software
[06:24] <bruenig> that goes on any distro
[06:24] <acid_phyre> hlst0: can i pm you?
[06:24] <bruenig> !enter | bruenig
[06:24] <h3h_timo> lorens, any ideas?
[06:25] <GottferDamnt> how restart alsa plz?
[06:25] <Ironman273> bruenig: OK, sorry for the dumb questions, I'm just hoping to understand it better.
[06:25] <lorens> h3h I have no clue. gave up on 64 bit and running 386 on my amd dual core.
[06:25] <bruenig> GottferDamnt, I have always done sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart, not sure if that works or not or is the right way but it looked right
[06:25] <bruenig> Ironman273, no problem
[06:26] <crimsun> that only (re)store mixer levels.
[06:26] <crimsun> +s
[06:26] <bruenig> finally I am corrected
[06:26] <crimsun> GottferDamnt probably needs to unload all the alsa drivers, remove the state file, and reload his driver.
[06:26] <crimsun> (reading backscroll)
[06:27] <crimsun> GottferDamnt: what's the issue?
[06:28] <lorens> h3h are you on intel?
[06:28] <Ironman273> Does Ubuntu have a built-in firewall?
[06:28] <Ironman273> !firewall
[06:28] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[06:29] <IcemanV9> Ironman273: yes. iptables
[06:29] <acid_phyre> whats so wrong about automatix
[06:29] <emet> whats a good gtk rss feed reader
[06:29] <IcemanV9> !automatix | acid_phyre
[06:29] <ubotu> acid_phyre: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[06:29] <Ironman273> IcemanV9: Thanks, getting used to the bot.  I'm new at IRC also. :)
[06:29] <cellofellow> I've been using Fluxbox in conjunction with ROX, and it's been causing X to randomly go crazy, peg the CPU, and effectively freeze the system. Only thing I can do is SSH in and sudo killall -9 Xorg. Why would it be doing this and how do I fix it?
[06:30] <cellofellow> (sorry, I had to go for a little while)
[06:30] <Shrimpy> hello everyone
[06:30] <bruenig> Ironman273, if you do /msg ubotu firewall (or any other thing) it will tell you in pm
[06:30] <acid_phyre> so installing threw synaptic is better then
[06:30] <bruenig> !apt-get | acid_phyre
[06:30] <ubotu> acid_phyre: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[06:30] <Shrimpy> i have a comprehensive sound problem, any one want to try and help me take care of this?
[06:30] <emet> whats a good gtk rss feed reader?
[06:30] <Ironman273> bruenig: Cool, thanks
[06:30] <bruenig> !info liferea
[06:30] <ubotu> liferea: feed aggregator for GNOME. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.23-0ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 734 kB, installed size 2224 kB
[06:31] <emet> bruenig, thanks, installed :P
[06:31] <cellofellow> anyone?
[06:31] <Ironman273> bruenig: Do you recommend Firestarter to config the firewall?
[06:31] <turbolover> wow, edgy eft works much better for me off the bat than dapper
[06:31] <bruenig> Ironman273, yeah
[06:32] <turbolover> and i thought it was the buggy one
[06:32] <Ironman273> bruenig: It's not in synaptic, how do I get it?
[06:32] <bruenig> !info firestarter
[06:32] <ubotu> firestarter: gtk program for managing and observing your firewall. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.3-1.2ubuntu3 (edgy), package size 383 kB, installed size 1884 kB
[06:32] <cellofellow> am I just in the wrong place?
[06:32] <IcemanV9> !repo | Ironman273
[06:32] <ubotu> Ironman273: 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
[06:32] <Shrimpy> i heard fiesty fawn is already pretty stable for be unmature
[06:32] <emet> !tilda
[06:32] <ubotu> tilda: Linux terminal which behaves like terminals in shooter games. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.09.3-0ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 32 kB, installed size 148 kB
[06:33] <bruenig> Ironman273, do "sudo sed 's/# deb/deb/g' -i /etc/apt/sources.list && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install firestarter" make sure you close synaptic before doing that
[06:33] <turbolover> anyone here use vmware? i am trying to install the server and the script acts like a previous install has been detected
[06:33] <emet> !vmware
[06:33] <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
[06:33] <burepe> Can someone tell me how to enable modules in php?
[06:33] <emet> :o
[06:33] <IcemanV9> turbolover: clean install or upgrade from dapper? just curious
[06:33] <section31> what's the easiest way to install mplayer with all the codecs...i tried using apt-get and I keep getting this error when trying to open a video error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device
[06:33] <bruenig> !mplayer | section31 I think you may need to compile
[06:33] <ubotu> section31 I think you may need to compile: mplayer is a media player. It resides in the mutiverse repository and can easily be installed via applications -> add/remove. For codecs try !codecs
[06:34] <bruenig> oh they changed that factoid
[06:34] <Shrimpy> i purged my linux-sound-base and it reinstalled it then i did the driver and then it still detects nothing
[06:34] <Ironman273> bruenig: Thanks it's installing
[06:34] <section31> !codecs
[06:34] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[06:34] <turbolover> iceman clean install, i got frustrated after an update screwed up my ati drivers and tried to use my windows restore cd and it got partway through nuking my drive and stopped working so i decided to try edgy eft
[06:34] <acid_phyre> search w32 on synaptic
[06:34] <kalorin_> ok so lets just say I don't want pppoe installed?
[06:34] <acid_phyre> and get vlc player
[06:34] <kalorin_> and if I select it and tell it I want it removed, then it says it's going ot have to remove xubuntu-desktop?
[06:34] <kalorin_> what's up with that/
[06:34] <bruenig> section31, maybe this will help https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MPlayer
[06:35] <fitren> ^.&
[06:35] <cellofellow> kalorin: don't worry about it, it's normal. If all it wants to remove is xubuntu-desktop, you're fine.
[06:35] <Ironman273> bruenig: Once it completes, where does it put it?
[06:35] <fitren> ^.^
[06:35] <IcemanV9> turbolover: eck. sorry about that. at least, you said it rocks (now). :)
[06:35] <section31> bruenig,well i installed it, i just need to get it working correctly
[06:35] <section31> with the codec pack
[06:35] <bruenig> Ironman273, it will be in the menus, it might be in system>administration
[06:35] <kalorin_> seriously?
[06:35] <kalorin_> I mean what happens with the desktop gone?
[06:36] <turbolover> well, i still want windows out of itnerest of running games and someo ther stuff that wine is just no reliable for
[06:36] <kalorin_> sure SOUNDS important :)
[06:36] <kalorin_> you're using wine?
[06:36] <kalorin_> why not just vmware it?
[06:36] <IcemanV9> kalorin_: it's just a meta package; you'll be fine ;)
[06:36] <kalorin_> ah ok
[06:36] <burepe> Kalorin_ the package was probably the part of the xubuntu base install
[06:36] <kalorin_> yeah it was
[06:36] <burepe> oh ok
[06:36] <kalorin_> doing some installing right now
[06:36] <ardchoille> kalorin_: that package is just a meta package and is safe to remove. But, you need to reinstalll it if you plan to upgrade to a newer ubuntu
[06:36] <kalorin_> this is getting to be pretty useful
[06:36] <bruenig> section31, right but when you compile it normally, don't you have to have the codec libraries on the computer first, so if ubuntu has a precompiled version that didn't have all the codecs there when they compiled them, you wouldn't be able to get it to work, (this is all assuming that you needed to have the codecs before compiling normally which I think is true but am not sure)
[06:37] <gop> !ati
[06:37] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:37] <mykhul> hey whats up guys
[06:37] <kalorin_> interesting, so uninstall it
[06:37] <kalorin_> that's cool
[06:37] <kalorin_> thanks
[06:37] <Shrimpy> hi
[06:37] <ardchoille> hi
[06:37] <mykhul> i've been on ubuntu for like 3 weeks now
[06:37] <bruenig> !howdy
[06:37] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[06:37] <brophat> ubuntu takes the hastle out of linux?
[06:37] <kalorin_> I decided to go this way because I'm tired of redhatE's dependencies and crap
[06:37] <mykhul> and i don't miss windows at all!
[06:37] <turbolover> iceman yeah i got frustrated when i couldnt get any help, anyways anyone have any idea where i could start looking to get any vestiges of vmware off so i can install it fresh? synaptic shows no packages installed
[06:37] <mykhul> just wanted to share that with you bastards
[06:38] <kalorin_> I miss a little things aobut windows, but I'd rather run linux if I can
[06:38] <kalorin_> it's finally gotten to where the desktop is usable for normal stuff
[06:38] <ardchoille> brophat: Indeed. My 8 year old niece uses Ubuntu :)
[06:38] <Shrimpy> awesome same here i gave up on windows
[06:38] <Shrimpy> THATS AWESOME
[06:38] <h3h_timo> lorens, yeah, i have a core duo
[06:38] <mykhul> funny... i bought windows xp from newegg... and before i even got it in the mail i installed ubuntu
[06:38] <brophat> I use slackware, and a pain thing is burning cd's and dvd's. does ubuntu make it easy?
[06:39] <mykhul> i have not tried to burn dvds/cds yet
[06:39] <bruenig> mykhul, bought xp? are you not aware of something called p2p
[06:39] <Shrimpy> depends on the application
[06:39] <kalorin_> shrimpy, I'm basically going to give it a week or so to see how much I can and can't do in it
[06:39] <kalorin_> and then make the call if I want to wait another few months or whatever
[06:39] <mykhul> bruenig, this was the first time i ever purchased such a thing
[06:39] <ardchoille> brophat: I just insert a blank cd/dvd and let gnomebaker take over. It's pretty easy.
[06:39] <kalorin_> I've been trying very hard to find open source cross platform utilities for things for about 2 years now under windows
[06:39] <mykhul> my nick name in the hood is mike the hacker
[06:39] <kalorin_> xchat and such
[06:39] <bruenig> brophat, it is easy, you can use cdrecord or growisofs or if you must graphical apps like gnomebaker or k3b
[06:39] <brophat> ardchoille ok so gnomebaker would be the app
[06:40] <acid_phyre> is it possible to run a newsleecher on unix?
[06:40] <gop> in gnome all I am getting is 800 x 600 resoultion
[06:40] <gop> why
[06:40] <ardchoille> brophat: That's what I use, but lots of people say k3b is the best.
[06:40] <lorens> h3h i have wondered if there is any way to take advantage of it. something that can assign affinity. or is it just up to having threaded apps?
[06:40] <bruenig> !fixres | gop
[06:40] <mykhul> i got 1600x1200 but i think it looks kind of dull
[06:40] <ubotu> gop: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[06:40] <brophat> bruenig the problem with that is dvd content comes differently
[06:40] <Shrimpy> yeah kalorin it seems the only things that you can not get is some games. but if you buy cedega it makes it pretty good. wine sucks
[06:40] <TheShrewdDude> a configure script tells me I don't have gtk devel packages
[06:40] <brophat> sometimes you get the iso, sometimes you don't
[06:40] <dftpnkezln> hey everyone, i need to install some support for the heat/fan sensors on my laptop, how would i go about doing this: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_Asus_M6VA,Z70VA#Sensors
[06:40] <TheShrewdDude> how can I get them?
[06:40] <TheShrewdDude> sudo apt-get install gtk?
[06:40] <gop> bruenig,  thanks
[06:40] <dftpnkezln> or is it advisable etc
[06:40] <brophat> sometimes it is an avi file etc............
[06:40] <kalorin_> games and things like photoshop
[06:41] <kalorin_> that's going to bother me a little
[06:41] <atrain> whats the state of PCI hotplug? eg: what would happen if I yanked a card right now?
[06:41] <Shrimpy> well they are things just like photoshop
[06:41] <mykhul> i miss ph otoshop
[06:41] <mykhul> but i work a lot at an office that has it
[06:41] <IcemanV9> during the installation process, i accidently pressed alt+tab and it stopped installing .. how do i restart it again (without reinstall again)?
[06:41] <kelsin> TheShrewdDude: ussually dev pacakges have -dev on the end of them
[06:41] <bruenig> TheftOfLife, sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev
[06:41] <kalorin_> shrimpy, I'm going to try to vmware xp on this machine and see how that goes
[06:41] <turbolover> !vmware
[06:41] <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
[06:41] <bruenig> brophat, you need to convert the avi before burning it
[06:41] <crimsun> atrain: you'd likely be (re)purchasing new hardware.
[06:42] <monday> how well will ubuntu run on a G3?
[06:42] <brophat> bruenig ok there in lies the complication
[06:42] <bruenig> brophat, there are some command line apps that I scripted to do it, and then after all that work, I found an application called devede that will do it, take avis, convert them, and then burn them
[06:42] <brophat> bruenig and you may get the dvd file in even different formats. I guess I am looking for a simple to use gui driven program
[06:42] <Shrimpy> i mean i still like windows but get annoying that it bogs down and get's retared with spyware and virus, no matter what the protection is
[06:43] <mindstate> how could i change which port the native bittorrent client is using? 6881 is blacklisted by the tracker i want to us
[06:43] <ardchoille> bruenig: devede is a great app :)
[06:43] <mindstate> use*
[06:43] <rkvirani> I just installed kubuntu-desktop ontop of an xubuntu install
[06:43] <bruenig> devede is awesome, just pissed me off after my scripts
[06:43] <rkvirani> how do I get rid of the xubuntu stuff?
[06:43] <kalorin_> wow, nice page
[06:43] <kalorin_> help page for vmware
[06:43] <brophat> i think what I have found out here is that gnomebaker is the app that  will take care of your burning needs with ease?
[06:44] <kalorin_> I figure linux is light weight enough I can likely give a vmware instance 768meg of ram and be fine on 256 for linux
[06:44] <acid_phyre> can anyone tell me whats the command to install java?
[06:44] <bruenig> brophat, gnomebaker is inferior to k3b
[06:44] <bruenig> acid_phyre, sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre
[06:44] <brophat> ok will look up k3b haha
[06:44] <Shrimpy> use the package manager.
[06:44] <bruenig> acid_phyre, or are you looking for the plugin
[06:44] <acid_phyre> just the main one
[06:44] <bruenig> brophat, but it won't allow you to burn avis to dvd, except as data of course
[06:45] <acid_phyre> dont have it at all
[06:45] <Shrimpy> hey anybody here know about alsa?
[06:45] <bruenig> acid_phyre, right jre, then do the plugin
[06:45] <Quintin> Shrimpy: just ask a question.  thanks.
[06:45] <bruenig> Shrimpy, crimsun does
[06:45] <mindstate> how could i change which port the native bittorrent client is using? 6881 is blacklisted by the tracker i want to use
[06:45] <Laser> I have two 80GB SATA drives and a 40GB ide drive, can anyone tell me the best way to partition them?
[06:45] <dftpnkezln> guys, noob question - is it possible to change the kernel settings (i want to add support for my hardware sensors) without completely recompiling it?
[06:45] <bruenig> mindstate, you need to change it in the client, what client are you using?
[06:46] <Shrimpy> well, i am not getting sound, i used to so i purged my llinux base sound and i reinstall it.  then i try to install the driver and i get nothing
[06:46] <bruenig> Laser, what are you trying to do, dual boot or what
[06:46] <brophat> bruenig sometimes dvds come with those separate files for different chapters. k3b can handle that?
[06:46] <Shrimpy> so do i need alsa installed before i install the driver. i'm following this site http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449&highlight=comprehensive+sound
[06:47] <Laser> No, I'm not dual booting I just want to make the best use of hard drives
[06:47] <ardchoille> brophat: If you're going to rip dvd movies, I would recommend http://dvdshrink.sourceforge.net  I've never had it fail on a dvd.
[06:47] <Quintin> Laser: Do you have any particular goal?
[06:47] <bruenig> brophat, k3b will burn data, or it will burn isos, or it will make music cds, it doesn't take vobs or whatever else and convert them, so if the separate chapters are in the .iso, then yes fine, if it is separate then no
[06:47] <bruenig> brophat, using mkiso though you can create an iso from a dvd file structure
[06:47] <Quintin> Laser: what is the rest of your hw specs?
[06:47] <mindstate> bruenig, im using the live -cd some im using the ubuntu native bt client
[06:48] <brophat> ok
[06:48] <dftpnkezln> anyone?
[06:48] <bruenig> mindstate, Yeah that is very limited I believe, I am not sure where that configuration is
[06:48] <mindstate> bruenig, that stinks lol
[06:48] <dftpnkezln> can you guys suggest a channel where they could tell me if its possible?
[06:48] <Laser> amd 3000, 1 gb ram
[06:48] <Shrimpy> crimsun i was wondering if you could help me set up my sound driver. i've been messing with it for a while and i'm getting fustrated
[06:48] <Quintin> Laser: you just want to use all available space?  Or do you want RAID?
[06:48] <brophat> basicaly then ubuntu has no new majic software for burning dvd's i
[06:48] <Laser> to use all available space
[06:49] <Quintin> Laser: make it all into 1 big LVM drive then
[06:49] <dftpnkezln> sigh
[06:49] <crimsun> Shrimpy: do you have the requested info from http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems pastebinned?
[06:49] <Laser> LVM drive?
[06:49] <Quintin> Laser: yes
[06:50] <Laser> How do I do that with the partition manager?
[06:50] <Quintin> Laser: 'physical volume for lvm'
[06:50] <Quintin> Laser: then configure lvm
[06:50] <kalorin_> so how come there's no bash package?
[06:50] <Quintin> Laser: I'd use the alternate install disc actually.  not sure how to do it with GUI tools
[06:50] <Shrimpy> thanks crimsun i'll work with that site
[06:51] <IcemanV9> bash is installed by default
[06:51] <kalorin_> ahok
[06:51] <bruenig> brophat, look it up on the forums, I have a lot of experience with it. It is pretty easy once you get it down.
[06:51] <kalorin_> I wondered, didn't see it in the package list
[06:51] <Laser> is the alternate install disk another iso i have to burn?
[06:51] <brophat> yeah i have used mkiso
[06:51] <IcemanV9> apt-cache policy bash
[06:51] <Quintin> Laser: yea.  the partitioning in it lets you setup RAID or LVM.  not sure if regular one does
[06:52] <hwdyki> how do i clear the local apt cache?
[06:52] <cafuegr> !info bash

[06:53] <cafuegr> kalorin_: it's certainly there
[06:53] <ardchoille> hwdyki: sudo apt-get clean
[06:53] <foxiness> hi,i want to let ff save my session after close the app and return the last session on next start,i read the ff 2.0 come with built-in save-session ,how can i enable it? "i can not find it on tab  under edit>preferences"
[06:53] <cafuegr> hwdyki: 'sudo apt-get (auto-)clean'
[06:53] <brophat> bruenig isn't the command mkisofs ??
[06:53] <Shrimpy> when someone types information on the command line and they use "$" in the begining what does that mean i know "#" (means in root or sudo)
[06:53] <hwdyki> thank you.
[06:53] <bruenig> brophat, yeah
[06:53] <mikejanssen> hola ubuntu-ers!
[06:53] <emet> what does the -y trigger do on apt-get ?
[06:53] <mikejanssen> = X
[06:53] <cafuegr> Shrimpy: If they type a $ they're using a variable.
[06:54] <Quintin> Shrimpy: ?  That is just a bash prompt  it can also be variable, or something to be expanded
[06:54] <mikejanssen> i wish that there was a canon mp150 driver = X
[06:54] <mikejanssen> then my linux would be complete
[06:54] <cafuegr> emet: ansers 'y' to any questions apt might ask about overwriting, continuing, etc.
[06:54] <Ironman273> Why would I be getting a "Unable to initialize HAL!" error at bootup?
[06:54] <kalorin_> synaptic is pretty nice
[06:54] <Shrimpy> ok thanks so i should pay attention to it becasue i'll have to change something
[06:54] <kalorin_> I might have to replace debian on my server with ubuntu
[06:54] <burepe> Can someone tell me how to enable modules in php?
[06:54] <kalorin_> or maybe a graphical version of linux :)
[06:54] <kalorin_> ol' grinch is all command line
[06:54] <Quintin> burepe: such as?
[06:55] <mikejanssen> how do i get rid of a kernal? i think i have 2 loaded...default and 386...
[06:55] <Quintin> kalorin_: you can have graphics on debian ..
[06:55] <kalorin_> yeah of course
[06:55] <Quintin> mikejanssen: apt
[06:55] <mikejanssen> ...
[06:55] <mikejanssen> ?
[06:55] <kalorin_> I just never bothered, all it does is run apache/php/ftp/mail and a few other things
[06:55] <brophat> what was the command to actually burn the iso to the dvd?
[06:55] <burepe> Quintin: --with-curl  --with-openssl  --with-dom  --with-zlib
[06:55] <kalorin_> if I had an x client then it'd be worth running x on it ;)
[06:55] <cafuegr> burepe: Install them and add them in php.ini if required.
[06:55] <Quintin> burepe: use the packages.
[06:55] <Laser> Is there another way I could partition without doing LVM, it looks complicated
[06:56] <kalorin_> otherwise 14" CRT and a crappy video card isn't worth much
[06:56] <Quintin> Laser: not if you want to use all the space available.
[06:56] <kalorin_> yeah here's a question
[06:56] <Quintin> Laser: You might do 1 sata for / 1 sata for /home
[06:56] <kalorin_> bought 2x400gb drives
[06:56] <burepe> synaptic?
[06:56] <kalorin_> set them up in the bios of the motherboard to be mirrored
[06:56] <mikejanssen> Quintin, what you mean 'apt'
[06:56] <kalorin_> went to install and did, and poof, grub blew up
[06:56] <kalorin_> had to unmirror them to get it to boot
[06:56] <Quintin> mikejanssen: the package manager.  you can use it to get rid of packages
[06:56] <kalorin_> now what can I do with the other drive to get a mirror set up that's fault tolerant?
[06:56] <kalorin_> lvm?
[06:57] <burepe> cafueger Quintin synaptic right?
[06:57] <kalorin_> synaptic is a nice GUI front end for apt
[06:57] <kalorin_> I like that it shows you all the packages that are out there
[06:57] <Laser> okay, well thanks for the help
[06:57] <omeil> umm does anyone know where wine install the programs?
[06:57] <kalorin_> and lets you pick rather than having to guess or research names
[06:58] <Quintin> burepe: apt-cache search php5 | grep <blah>
[06:58] <Quintin> omeil: ~/.wine/drive_c/
[06:58] <Quintin> kalorin_: You probably need MBR on the other one to have grub
[06:58] <kalorin_> other one?
[06:58] <studeringaaron> hi everybody
[06:58] <kalorin_> ah you mean mirror that too?
[06:58] <Shrimpy> crimsun: i'm having problems in the very begining.(sorry) but it says to do modinfo  [modulename]    what do i put for the modulename   the driver is (hda-intel)
[06:58] <kalorin_> could you just dd them?
[06:59] <kalorin_> and sync that way and then mirror them?
[06:59] <Quintin> kalorin_: other drive.  I'm also 90% sure you don't have raid if it's in the bios.  that's usually not real raid.  just set it to be normal drives and use linux sw raid if you're gonna do that
[06:59] <kalorin_> though I understand that it's just software raid anyway
[06:59] <kalorin_> yeah that's what i'm thinking too
[06:59] <Quintin> kalorin_: if you want a backup you can do rsync daily or twice daily
[06:59] <crimsun> Shrimpy: modinfo snd-hda-intel
[06:59] <kalorin_> well i was thinking dd it to start, then rsync as needed
[06:59] <kalorin_> that should take care of it
[07:00] <kalorin_> at least then I could just unhook a dead drive and reboot
[07:00] <Shrimpy> crimsun: it says cound not find module
[07:00] <Quintin> kalorin_: rsync or cp -a ..
[07:00] <crimsun> Shrimpy: what did you type?
[07:00] <kalorin_> well, dd would set up the partitions and stuff just the same
[07:00] <kalorin_> riht?
[07:00] <whta> hi, is it possible for me to have both KDE and gnome in a single ubuntu install? i have gnome but i want to see what KDE is like
[07:00] <kalorin_> right?
[07:00] <Quintin> kalorin_: yes and no
[07:00] <kalorin_> whta sure
[07:01] <kalorin_> the drivers are the same model and size
[07:01] <Quintin> whta: yea that's fine.
[07:01] <Shrimpy> crimsun:
[07:01] <Shrimpy> modinfo snd-hda-intel
[07:01] <Quintin> kalorin_: you can maybe do that, it's not what I would do though.
[07:01] <whta> ok, where should i go to properly add this then?
[07:01] <kalorin_> I'll just software raid it
[07:02] <h1st0> whta: well you could install kubuntu-desktop to get the full experience or just kde up to your.
[07:02] <Quintin> kalorin_: be sure you install GRUB on both discs.  if one dies, you should be able to take it out, and reboot.  The array will be in 'degraded' mode then, and you can hotadd another disk if it's partitioned properly
[07:02] <Quintin> whta: apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[07:02] <whta> will that affect my current install at all?
[07:02] <Quintin> whta: yes
[07:03] <whta> quintin: more importantly, i guess, will it make anything i have NOW no longer work? i want to easily be able to toggle between the 2
[07:03] <cables> All my fonts in OpenOffice look pretty ugly. Fonts look fine in any other application, as well as in OpenOffice on Windows. Does anyone have any ideas?
[07:04] <Quintin> whta: there's about a 0.1% chance of that happening.
[07:04] <Quintin> cables: new monitor ^-)
[07:04] <Shrimpy> crimsun: when using that website i' not getting very much info. as in i get errors
[07:04] <cables> Quintin, :)
[07:05] <whta> quintin: ok then. so will i be able to choose between gnome and KDE in the sessions at login?
[07:05] <omeil> hmm Jedi Knight outcast runs good on Wine no flaws at all :) except it dosen't like me sound card lol
[07:05] <Quintin> whta: yes.
[07:05] <Quintin> omeil: winecfg > use emulation, and OSS
[07:06] <kalorin_> sound is overrated :)
[07:06] <omeil> that makes no sence to me :)
[07:06] <Quintin> omeil: run winecfg
[07:06] <omeil> k
[07:06] <whta> another question: half the time when i start up linux i have no sound. a restart or two usually fixes this, but it's very irritating having to restart to get sound. anyone have an idea what might cause this?
[07:07] <omeil> oh didn't know it had a cfg lol :D
[07:07] <turbolover> yes! vmware runnign winxp within ubuntu! games!
[07:07] <cables> whta, is it in any particular app?
[07:07] <studeringaaron> i had no sound when  I tried fedora core but havent had t6ha tprob with ubuntu
[07:07] <Quintin> turbolover: there are a lot of linux games.   I don't think you have hardware 3d with vmware
[07:08] <whta> cables: no. usually i just listen for the little bongo clip that should come up when the login screen loads. if i don't hear that, then NO sound AT ALL works anywhere.
[07:08] <Quintin> whta: what hardware ?
[07:08] <cables> whta, no idea then there.
[07:08] <Quintin> whta: paste your lspci and lspci -n @ http://daecom.biz/paste/
[07:08] <brophat> does the website talk about what the new feartures are for the new versions?
[07:08] <omeil> k now for the test
[07:08] <omeil> a sound card has not been detected in your system :(
[07:08] <turbolover> quintin right, but civ4 does NOT run in linux
[07:09] <turbolover> and i like my civ 4
[07:09] <whta> quintin: http://daecom.biz/paste/?q=22
[07:09] <turbolover> cedega wouldnt be bad if i didnt have to suscribe to it
[07:09] <burepe> cafueger Quintin curl is the only package I can find
[07:10] <turbolover> oh yeah defcon doesnt work for it either
[07:10] <chorse> turbolover: http://transgaming.org/gamesdb/screenshots/images/948.jpg
[07:10] <Quintin> turbolover: you can get it from cvs.
[07:10] <Quintin> whta: lspci -n
[07:10] <tehxed> I need help with an fglrx issue, I have an ATI Radeon Xpress 200M and when I type in fglrxinfo in terminal, i get the error   Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0". display: :0.0  screen: 0     I followed the tutorual/instructions from  http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Edgy_Installation_Guide#Method_2:_Install_the_8.34.8_Driver_Manually
[07:11] <kalorin> ah yes, now that's better
[07:11] <kalorin> at least it's basically the same as my other systems :)
[07:11] <kalorin> tabs on top for channels only, users on the right
[07:11] <kalorin> very nice, love xchat
[07:11] <arrenlex> tehxed: Add "dri" to your modules list in xorg.conf
[07:11] <momo521> im using Sabayon distro and i need help..can someone help me?  im having troubles with my built in wireless card
[07:11] <Quintin> tehxed: paste your /var/log/Xorg.0.log and your /etc/X11/xorg.conf please
[07:12] <G2k> hey guys does anyone here have a ipw2200 wireless card?
[07:12] <tehxed> Load "dri" under Modules?
[07:12] <cables> momo521, this is the wrong place to ask.
[07:12] <brophat> LTS costs money?
[07:12] <momo521> well no one is in the other channel
[07:12] <Quintin> brophat: ... no.  ...
[07:12] <momo521> i tried there first
[07:12] <whta> quintin: http://daecom.biz/paste/?q=23
[07:12] <cables> brophat, support costs money, LTS just means that commercial support is available for longer.
[07:13] <brophat> oh ok
[07:13] <studeringaaron> sorry to interupt but can anyone direct me to where I can find out about gettin my 56k modem to work
[07:13] <arrenlex> tehxed: Yep. If you don't understand that, better follow this:
[07:13] <arrenlex> !ati | tehxed
[07:13] <ubotu> tehxed: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:13] <tehxed> Quintin: second
[07:13] <Quintin> studeringaaron: buy a real modem.
[07:13] <studeringaaron> nope im cheap
[07:13] <brophat> so if you paid for support, and you downloaded LTS, then your support for the same money will last longer
[07:13] <Quintin> studeringaaron: it's not happening.
[07:13] <studeringaaron> its for my laptop when I travel actually
[07:13] <Quintin> brophat: no.  it just means updates will continue to be released
[07:14] <brophat> ok
[07:14] <Quintin> brophat: support iirc is a flat fee, yearly
[07:14] <whta> quintin: http://daecom.biz/paste/?q=23
[07:14] <brophat> support iirc?
[07:14] <brophat> you mean support on irc?
[07:14] <Quintin> whta: hm.. really odd.  sb live should be well supported.  I use it on my desktop along with intel hda
[07:14] <Quintin> !iirc
[07:14] <ubotu> IIRC means "if I remember correctly"
[07:15] <Quintin> ^^
[07:15] <fletch007> new install, wont boot unless. I go into recovery mode and sudo startx at the command prompt? any ideas? if I just let it boot in gets to the logon screen the cursor blinks three time then the system hangs. ??
[07:15] <brophat> oh ok hahahahha funny... sorry
[07:15] <whta> quintin: that's what's confusing me. I know the card works fine since sound DOES work.. it's just a game of chance whether or not it will decide to on the given startup
[07:15] <Quintin> fletch007: what video card and drivers?
[07:15] <brophat> IIRC is bad to use on irc
[07:15] <fletch007> its nvidia 5500 fx and default drives from the install
[07:16] <Quintin> fletch007: paste your Xorg logs and conf files
[07:16] <fletch007> i had to do a text install as well as the live dvd would not boot same thing just hangs
[07:17] <fletch007> I would love to do that , but don't know how yet. I am a complete newbie like 2 hours old
[07:17] <omeil> hmm quintin do i turn driver emulation on. or do u just select emulation only
[07:17] <kalorin> !wmware
[07:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wmware - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:17] <brophat> I like the fact that you can upgrade to latest version easily

[07:17] <acid_phyre> vmware is cool
[07:17] <Quintin> fletch007: /var/log/ is where they are at...
[07:17] <hwdyki> how do i update my whole system?
[07:17] <kalorin> eh/
[07:17] <Quintin> I only accept pastes on my website! :P
[07:17] <brophat> is upgrading really safe and easy?
[07:18] <Quintin> brophat: yes, very.
[07:18] <kalorin> someone had a nice link for vmware stuff up there a minutes ago
[07:18] <sprocket> hello
[07:18] <kalorin> what happened to it?
[07:18] <acid_phyre> hwdyki: to which system?
[07:18] <brophat> I know with slackware ugrading is always a problem
[07:19] <fletch007> ok, I will work on that.
[07:19] <hwdyki> acid_phyre: edgy
[07:19] <jmazaredo> is it ok to remove other linux-restricted-modules and leave only the restricted modules for my architecture?
[07:19] <Quintin> tehxed: paste your lsmod
[07:19] <acid_phyre> google how to upgrade 6.06 to 6.10
[07:19] <hwdyki> acid_phyre: security updates i mean.
[07:19] <acid_phyre> it will tell u
[07:19] <acid_phyre> ohh
[07:19] <acid_phyre> it should pop up automatically
[07:19] <hwdyki> i am already on edgy.
[07:19] <omeil> how long has this version 6.10 been out?
[07:19] <acid_phyre> im about to be on edgy
[07:19] <hwdyki> what would pop up?
[07:19] <brophat> acid_phyre I thought ubuntu makes it easy to upgrade
[07:19] <n3rrd> not necessarily a ubuntu question, but is there an easy to tell if a parallel port is dead?
[07:19] <acid_phyre> it does
[07:19] <Quintin> acid_phyre: change all 'dapper' to 'edgy' in /etc/apt/sources.list , aptitude update ; aptitude upgrade ; aptitude dist-upgrade aptitude dist-upgrade
[07:20] <Pelo> omeil,   the number tells you,  2006 10th month

[07:20] <omeil> oh ok
[07:21] <omeil> does anyone know how to configure the audio in wine properly. when i select OSS and go full on emulation. the sound has a 0.3 second delay which is annoying :D
[07:21] <Pelo> omeil,  try asking in #winehq
[07:22] <hwdyki> no way to do a world update?
[07:22] <kalorin> oh I love you firefox and your restore session
[07:22] <acid_phyre> it is easy
[07:22] <DARKGuy> Hey, anybody knows how to change the global font size in X? they're too big for my taste in 1280x1024 :( (not in Gnome, just global X)
[07:22] <Thanatos> what's the best package for burning an .iso to a cd?
[07:22] <brophat> acid_phyre the website says: Updates, from simple security fixes to a complete version upgrade, are now possible with a few clicks of the update utility.
[07:22] <Pelo> DARKGuy,  menu > system > prets > fonts
[07:23] <Pelo> Thanatos, gnomebaker is nice
[07:23] <DARKGuy> Pelo: I'm not using Gnome, but Fluxbox - and either way, I'd like to know how to change the -global- font size in *X* :P
[07:23] <Thanatos> thankyou pelo
[07:23] <rob5> if i have a shell script using /bin/sh and am doing a 'case' statement, what's the correct syntax if I want to see if the first few arguments are 'scp -P XXXX...'.  i tried: 'scp -P 3434*)' but it came back: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")").  but 'scp*)' works fine.
[07:23] <tehxed> Quintin: any luick?
[07:23] <DARKGuy> Pelo: but thanks for answering anyways o.o
[07:23] <tehxed> luck*
[07:24] <DARKGuy> like, something like... y'know X loads some fonts in xorg.conf, can you set the font size through there?
[07:24] <Pelo> DARKGuy, just have a look
[07:24] <DARKGuy> like to zoom them out or scale them some %, like, proportional
[07:24] <whta> how long does it usually take for synaptic to update with the latest version of wine?
[07:24] <kalorin> rob5, I don't understand the question, but I'm pretty handy with bash
[07:25] <DARKGuy> Pelo: where? :/
[07:25] <Quintin> Thanatos: k3b
[07:25] <Quintin> rob5: /join #bash
[07:25] <Pelo> whta,  just get the repo from www.winehq.org and put it in synatpic, it wlll update when a package becomes available
[07:25] <Quintin> tehxed: what card
[07:26] <tehxed> Quintin: ATI Radeon Xpress 200M
[07:26] <Pelo> DARKGuy,  sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf ,   I am not promissing anything but the first part looks promissing
[07:26] <Quintin> tehxed: laptop?
[07:26] <networkr00> hi
[07:26] <Quintin> !hi | networkr00
[07:26] <networkr00> I need help with setting up xchat
[07:26] <ubotu> networkr00: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[07:26] <tehxed> Quintin: Yes. Gateway MX7118 I think..      01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M 5955 (PCIE)
[07:27] <DARKGuy> Pelo: Oh, yeah, but I thought it was some parameter line I had to add and problem solved xD... guess not :/ *googles*
[07:27] <cables> networkr00, ask away
[07:27] <Quintin> networkr00: sudo apt-get install xchat.  /join #xchat
[07:27] <Stevethepirate> hello friends i have a question about startup and it is when i start up ubuntu it does the loading scrren wit the bar and then it goes into text base login and then its all text
[07:27] <networkr00> I am in now
[07:27] <Quintin> tehxed: screwy.
[07:27] <Hasrat_USA> is there any Konversation user around here? i want to connect to a new server without having to disconnect freenode. how to do that?
[07:27] <brophat> what linux kernel does the current release use?
[07:27] <cables> networkr00, if it's not ubuntu-specific, join the channel #xchat for help.
[07:27] <Quintin> tehxed: looking, give me a few
[07:27] <networkr00> but I tried to go to the #automatix and it doesn't like my nickname, says I'm not registered
[07:27] <Quintin> Hasrat_USA: /join #kubuntu /join #kde
[07:28] <cables> networkr00, first of all, don't use automatix. Second of all, hold on a sec
[07:28] <cables> !register | networkr00
[07:28] <ubotu> networkr00: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[07:28] <Quintin> networkr00: automatix is crap, don't use it and save us all headaches.
[07:28] <Hasrat_USA> Quintin: oh okay thanks
[07:28] <networkr00> why is it crap?
[07:28] <Quintin> Hasrat_USA: np
[07:28] <cables> networkr00, it can majorly break stuff
[07:28] <Shrimpy> hey
[07:28] <Pelo> fyi automatix has been borked for a few days,  they may have given up
[07:28] <networkr00> I've had incredibly solid results with it
[07:28] <cables> networkr00, if there's something Automatix does that you want to do, ask here for how to do it without automatix
[07:28] <Shrimpy> when i load up ubuntu it enters a text based system the gui is gone. what do i do to get it back?
[07:28] <networkr00> just got to leave it alone while it's doing it's thing
[07:28] <fletch007> Quintin-- I was able to post my xorg log to your link., but I cant find any conf file in the var/log
[07:29] <unop> automatix has been borked for a few years (not just a few days) :)
[07:29] <Madpilot> networkr00, lucky you, it has a bad habit of eating installs
[07:29] <cables> networkr00, Automatix works fine... until you try to upgrade to the latest ubuntu release.
[07:29] <Quintin> fletch007: the conf file is /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:29] <Madpilot> unop, s/a few years/since it came out
[07:29] <unop> !automatix
[07:29] <ubotu> automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[07:29] <networkr00> thanks guys/gals
[07:29] <unop> Madpilot,  it's only a few years old (so we mean the same thing) :)
[07:29] <DARKGuy> brb
[07:29] <cables> According to the automatix channel, it's going to be back up soon. Dammit!
[07:29] <Madpilot> unop, heh
[07:30] <networkr00> !register | networkr00
[07:30] <Hasrat_USA> what's the point in using automatix or any software other than the default app add/remove in ubuntu is something i don't understand
[07:30] <FactTech> Question: Is there a better forum than this one for hardware questions? Specifically, about motherboard/BIOS/memory questions.
[07:30] <Quintin> tehxed: X does start, yes?  You just don't have hardware 3d?
[07:30] <Quintin> FactTech: /j #hardware
[07:30] <yellow> FactTech, #hardware
[07:30] <Thanatos> k3b looks like it is more ideal for burning an iso
[07:30] <FactTech> Quintin yellow Thanks!
[07:31] <tehxed> Quintin: I don't know what you mean by X doesn't start?
[07:31] <tehxed> Quintin: I'm on Ubuntu right now.
[07:31] <fletch007> Quintin- ok then I posted the conf file as well.
[07:31] <Pelo> g'night folks
[07:31] <Quintin> tehxed: You have a graphical desktop, right?  with the laptop?
[07:31] <Quintin> fletch007: link
[07:31] <tehxed> Yes.
[07:31] <tehxed> Would you like a screenshot?
[07:31] <ttheikkila> both easyubuntu and automatix won work
[07:32] <Quintin> tehxed: no.  Do you need hardware 3d support for something?
[07:32] <tehxed> Quintin: Would you like a screenshot?
[07:32] <tehxed> Quintin: Yes. Beryl.
[07:32] <Madpilot> Thanatos, if you're in Gnome, burning an ISO is dead easy: just right-click on the ISO file, select Burn To Disc. Done.
[07:32] <cables> ttheikkila, what?
[07:32] <Hasrat_USA> ttheikkila: they don't work? consider yourself lucky. seriously!
[07:32] <ttheikkila> i mean they will not work
[07:33] <Shrimpy> does any know much about the load up of ubuntu?
[07:33] <ttheikkila> I had some severe mess with easyubuntu
[07:33] <cables> ttheikkila, that's a good thing. Automatix has been known to break installs badly, especially when the time comes to upgrade to the latest Ubuntu version.
[07:33] <fletch007> http://pastebin.ca/371296
[07:33] <Shrimpy> because its not loading the gui it only loads a text based system
[07:33] <cables> ttheikkila, if you've already used it, that's a bad thing.
[07:33] <Ironman273> Anyone know why I'm getting this error: "failed to initialize HAL!"?
[07:34] <tehxed> Quintin:  So.. what do you suggest?
[07:34] <fletch007> Quintin - here is the other one http://pastebin.ca/371291
[07:34] <unop> Shrimpy,  can you log in there at all?
[07:34] <Quintin> tehxed: I'm working on it.  it's 1:30 am, patience.
[07:34] <tehxed> Quintin: Alright.
[07:34] <geeksauce> is there any reason why archive manager isn't able to read rar files?
[07:34] <tehxed> Quintin:  THanks.
[07:34] <Shrimpy> thanks unop yes it ask user name and then i type in my crap and thtn it acts like a terminal
[07:34] <Quintin> geeksauce: not supported.  get 'unrar' or 'unrar-nonfree'
[07:35] <Quintin> tehxed: modprobe agpart
[07:35] <unop> Shrimpy,  no swearing please, thanks :)  what happens when you type this command in?  sudo gdm
[07:35] <geeksauce> Quintin, interesting. is rar a licensed format or something?
[07:35] <tehxed> Quintin: FATAL: Module agpart not found.
[07:36] <Quintin> geeksauce: winrar is proprietary software.  there are 2 pkgs for it.  1 does some stuff, and is open source, the other does everything, and is not open source.  I just use the latter one
[07:36] <unop> geeksauce,  it's restricted as the license is not GPL compatible
[07:36] <Shrimpy> sorry about that unop also when i type in sudo gdm i get command not found
[07:36] <Thanatos> Wow. I didn't know that burning an iso is so easy in GNOME. I'm such a noob
[07:36] <synetos07> I am in mIRC for windows (excuse me) - how can I stop the "joined" and "quit" notices from showing ?
[07:37] <unop> synetos07,  /j ##windows
[07:37] <unop> Shrimpy,  hmm .. thats odd -- how about this one? which sudo
[07:37] <Quintin> tehxed: I'm sorry.  modprobe agpgart
[07:38] <Shrimpy> unop: i get /usr/bin/sudo
[07:38] <tehxed> Quintin: FATAL: Module agpgart not found.
[07:38] <synetos07> unop - thanks
[07:38] <comand> Hi -- how can I find out what package owns a particular file using the command line?   What is the appropriate apt tool...
[07:38] <Quintin> tehxed: you're root, yea?
[07:38] <unop> Shrimpy,  are you on kubuntu?
[07:38] <Shrimpy> no ubuntu
[07:38] <tehxed> want me to sudo modprobe agpgart ?

[07:39] <tehxed> Quintin: Same thing.
[07:39] <comand> dpkg .. thanks
[07:39] <unop> Shrimpy,  hmm, what about this? which gdm?

[07:41] <kalorin> it's interesting that ubuntu uses .deb packages primarily
[07:41] <kalorin> yeah i'm doing it
[07:41] <kalorin> works fine
[07:41] <kalorin> though the security is broken :)
[07:42] <omeil_> NTFS works fine?
[07:42] <kalorin> sure
[07:42] <lovloss> there's like 50 different kinds of opengl libraries. i want to mess with open gl and i dont have the #includes... soooo, which one of these should i get? anyone know?
[07:42] <Quintin> omeil_: reading ntfs is fine
[07:42] <unop> omeil_,  traditionally it only supported office, then a few other applications, lately i've heard it supports games .. but gamers tend to prefer !cedega and !qemu better

[07:44] <unop> omeil_,  why doesnt ntfs-3g work?
[07:44] <geeksauce> Quintin, are those command-line utils, and if so, is there a frontend app for them?
[07:44] <Shrimpy> unop: it loaded!!!!!!!!!!   THANK YOU!!!
[07:44] <omeil_> unop: didn't work for me. unless im doing something wrong which im pretty sure i am lol
[07:45] <unop> Shrimpy,  you should be ok now
[07:45] <Softly> Hello
[07:45] <Quintin> geeksauce: hm?

[07:45] <tehxed> Quintin: Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "linux-2.6.17-11-generic"
[07:45] <unop> omeil_,  well, let's say you are a car mechanic and i come to you saying "i got in the car this morning and it wouldnt move" .. would i be making sense to you? :)
[07:46] <Quintin> tehxed: linux-kernel-`uname -r`
[07:46] <omeil_> unop: well kinda :D except it could be many things :D
[07:46] <unop> Shrimpy,  press CTRL+ALT+F1 .. at the terminal, issue this command.  sudo reboot
[07:46] <joebob777as7> anyone know where to get the deb of gimpshop for kubuntu???
[07:46] <omeil_> unop:well really i just followed what it said and nothing happend :(
[07:46] <Quintin> geeksauce: oh.  yes they are.  whatever file archiver you have will work with the command line ones seamlessly though.
[07:46] <omeil_> unop: i couldn't mount with the ntfs-3g command
[07:46] <Shrimpy> unop, thanks
[07:47] <unop> omeil_,  exactly .. i'm not being descriptive enough of what i've tried, what i've experienced, "error messages" i saw, etc .. now if i gave you them, you' have a better idea of where to begin troubleshooting :)
[07:47] <omeil_> unop: could it be that fuse isn't installed properly?
[07:47] <tehxed> Quintin: Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "linux-kernel-2.6.17-11-generic"
[07:47] <House> um im kinda new to this so i need some help
[07:47] <omeil_> unop: have you succesfully read/write ur ntfs?
[07:47] <House> i have a laptop
[07:47] <unop> omeil_,  well, try mounting your device again and let me know what errors you see
[07:47] <House> well i have ubuntu installed if thats what you mean
[07:47] <geeksauce> Quintin, archive manager will work?
[07:48] <unop> omeil_,  aye yes, i've been running it quite well for the last year and a bit
[07:48] <Quintin> tehxed: sorry, I'm off it seems.  aptitude reinstall linux-image-2.6.17-11-generic
[07:48] <geeksauce> Quintin, with those packages installed i mean
[07:48] <Quintin> geeksauce: yes.
[07:48] <House> anyone interested in helping me
[07:48] <omeil_> unop whats the ntfs-3g mounting command?
[07:48] <joebob777as7> hey can someone help me with gimphsop for kububuntu
[07:48] <Softly> confidential
[07:49] <Shrimpy> unop, still there is only a tan background, any clues
[07:49] <jeffwheeler> I'm trying to make my thumb drive a bootable Ubuntu install, by following these instructions: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent.
[07:49] <House> please!
[07:49] <Quintin> tehxed: oh yea.  paste your xorg.conf one more time.  http://daecom.biz/
[07:49] <unop> omeil_,  here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009/
[07:49] <jeffwheeler> But, I can't seem to read casper/vmlinuz or a couple of other files in the same dir.
[07:49] <burepe> joebob777as7: is it in the repositories?
[07:49] <jeffwheeler> (from the mounted iso or mounted cd, both)
[07:49] <Quintin> tehxed: mainly option composite disable .. at the bottom.  do that
[07:50] <Solidad> i must have accidentally changed the permissions of the home folder..i can't do anything.i tried to bring up a terminal, and it said permission denied..tried CTRL+ALT+F1..that didn't work so i restarted ..it goes to the login page i can't login
[07:50] <unop> Shrimpy,  ok, press CTRL+ALT+F1 to get back to the terminal and run this command. sudo sh -c "killall gdm; gdm"
[07:51] <unop> Shrimpy,  once the tan screen appears, get back to the console and examine it for any errors/info that might have been spit out there
[07:51] <tehxed> Quintin: Can you repeat what you said about option composite disable?
[07:51] <cables> I was trying out the sysrq commands today, and none of them actually worked... however, just pressing sysrq causes my cpu usage to go to 100 % and my memory to slowly fill up. What's with that?
[07:51] <tehxed> Quintin: I don't quite understand
[07:51] <Quintin> tehxed: at bottom of your xorg.conf, look at it.
[07:52] <Shrimpy> unop: when i type the command line in it says GDM already running, aborting!
[07:52] <tehxed> Yea, it's Composite 0
[07:52] <tehxed> Should I change the 0 to "disabled" instead of "0
[07:52] <tehxed> "?
[07:52] <Quintin> tehxed: give me link again
[07:53] <Quintin> tehxed: and have you reinstalled your kernel image?
[07:53] <unop> Shrimpy,  this then.  sudo sh -c "killall -9 gdm; gdm"
[07:53] <Shrimpy> unop: i tried it again and i'm at the lon in screen
[07:53] <Shrimpy> should i try and log in?
[07:54] <unop> Shrimpy,  lon?
[07:54] <unop> ohh log* ha
[07:54] <unop> yea, yea, log in :)
[07:54] <fletch007> Quintin, I can see that you are very busy--- I was reading throug the xorg.conf file and it says BusID "PCI:1:0:0" . now I know that my video card is an AGP card, could that be causing my troubles?
[07:54] <tehxed> Quintin: http://pastebin.ca/371320
[07:54] <tehxed> Quintin: That's my xorg.conf
[07:55] <House> how do i use wi-fi on my laptop
[07:55] <Shrimpy> unop: still that tan backgrond,
[07:55] <House> with ubuntu
[07:55] <jeffwheeler> Is there anything special about casper/filesystem.squashfs, casper/initrd.gz, and capser/vmlinuz that would prevent them from being read, which prevents me from copying them to my thumb drive
[07:55] <Quintin> tehxed: ok, that's fine, I think.  get your kernel reinstalled.. you need agpgart
[07:55] <unop> Shrimpy,  so this is after you log in?
[07:55] <cables> !wifi | House
[07:55] <ubotu> House: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:55] <House> thank you!
[07:55] <tehxed> Quintin: How do I go about getting agpgart?
[07:56] <Quintin> tehxed: .. reinstall kernel.  3rd time.
[07:56] <Shrimpy> unop: correct
[07:56] <Quintin> fletch007: it should be PCI .. even for agp
[07:56] <tehxed> the same...thing?
[07:56] <tehxed> Quintin: the same thing?
[07:56] <unop> Shrimpy,  you see nothing but a background? not even a splash screen or any sign of activity?
[07:56] <fletch007> Quintin: thanks, I will keep looking
[07:56] <Quintin> tehxed: I told you package to get... look up a bit
[07:56] <joebob777as7> i need gimpshop for kubuntu
[07:56] <Quintin> fletch007: do a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and follow the prompts.
[07:56] <Quintin> fletch007: what kind of monitor do you have?
[07:57] <tehxed> Quintin: sudo  aptitude reinstall linux-image-2.6.17-11-generic    That?
[07:57] <Shrimpy> unop: the only thing i see is my mouse and it does respond to movement
[07:57] <burepe> joebob777as7: did you see the question I asked you?
[07:57] <fletch007> Quintin. the monitor is a P225f - ViewSonic
[07:57] <Quintin> tehxed: yep!
[07:57] <tehxed> Quintin: I've already done that. Do you need me to do it again?

[07:58] <Shrimpy> unop: is this not looking good?
[07:58] <mhhz> are there any long time debian users here that switched to ubuntu... and if so - why?  don't mean to start a flame war here... just genuinely curious
[07:59] <Quintin> fletch007: your xorg.conf is ... funny.  Do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg in text mode and follow the prompts

[07:59] <Solidad> it denied me permission the last time i was at the home screen of the desktop for the terminal window I select failsafe session and i get the same set of erros..i am in the failsafe session looks like im in the /root
[07:59] <House> how do i know whether or not ubuntu recognizes a device
[07:59] <unop> Shrimpy,  hmm, i'm contemplating next move .. maybe it'd help to let me know what you were last doing before you lost X
[07:59] <exs> Can someone help me?.. I'm trying to free space, but it appears that everything I delete, stays in the trash as hidden (non-accessable) files! I have 21gb in the trash as 'disk usage analyzer' tells me.
[07:59] <Synetosoft> Will GRUB work nicely with Windows XP - Pro - I wanna put Ubuntu on my 2nd drive partition  -  ?
[07:59] <Quintin> mhhz: yes. me.  cause it's easier more well organized desktop.  it's really not a whole lot diff from debian, just less work.
[07:59] <fletch007> Quintin, I will give it a shot thanks
[07:59] <Quintin> tehxed: that's it?  Should be about 12 lines
[07:59] <joebob777as7> burepe where would i look to tell? sorry red wasn't showing up properly lol
[07:59] <mhhz> House: try 'dmesg' to see if it shows up during boot
[07:59] <omeil> unop: i can't download ntfs-config
[08:00] <tehxed> Quintin: No, that's it.
[08:00] <mhhz> Synetosoft: yes
[08:00] <unop> omeil,  I can't get my car to move
[08:00] <House> can someone please tell me how to tell whether or not ubuntu recognizes a device
[08:00] <Quintin> tehxed: you have plenty of free disk, right?
[08:00] <tehxed> Quintin: Quite a bit.
[08:00] <Quintin> House: what kind?
[08:00] <Synetosoft> mhhz - Excellent - I really appreciate that.  I foolishly put in a 2nd hard drive last week (an old one that only was 2GB in size)
[08:00] <tehxed> Quintin: ... well.. depends on what you mean by "plenty" .. I have about 60 to 70GB free atm
[08:00] <Quintin> tehxed: that's more than enough...
[08:00] <mhhz> House: does dmesg indicate that it was recognized?  also - you could see if the module is loaded with 'lsmod'
[08:00] <House> um well, my sound and wifi dont work
[08:01] <Shrimpy> unop: i was trying to reconfigure my sound card. i was building packages from alsa and then i want to start over so i opened my home folder and it said something about error nautilus could not open. so i closed everything and shut it down. got a slice of pizza and then turned the computer on
[08:01] <Synetosoft> mhhz - and did not know that Ubuntu needs a minimum of 2 Gig to operate.  I let it install anyway - and grub just froze on boot - but probably because it did not have any workspace - right ?
[08:01] <joebob777as7> house if you shove a usb cord in upside down your mobo will let you know it recognized a device... lol please don't try it
[08:01] <quaal> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOlrKH3SmtI you guys seen ?
[08:01] <House> and i dont think my graphiccs card either
[08:01] <Quintin> tehxed: well, you've got me stumped.  You need agpgart.ko to be loaded... but .. you don't have it?  wtf?   and you are using stock kernel

[08:01] <burepe> joebob777as7: you are new to ubuntu? All packages (programs) come from repositories where programs are collected. If you set them up you can get nearly every program from them.
[08:01] <Synetosoft> mhhz - I now have created a 25 Gig partition on my C  and wanna try it again.  Thanks - will give it a shot.
[08:01] <tehxed> Quintin: I don't know what any of that means... but I have Ubuntu Edge Eft 6.10 (AMD 64 DVD ISO installation)... =\

[08:03] <House> well how do i get sound
[08:03] <techie1> Can anybody comment? Maybe this will make sense to some of you. I defragmented my windows xp ready for Ubuntu installation. I want to do a dual boot. Download systemrescue. Even though windows xp is in NTFS when using systemcd on Gparted, it reads or gives me a FAT 32. Does this make sense to anyone?
[08:04] <unop> omeil,  skip that step and run that step of getting your disk mounted via the /etc/fstab file
[08:04] <joebob777as7> burepe do I want source repositories?
[08:04] <Shrimpy> unop: xauth :creating new authority file /home/tony/.serverauth.4668         Fatal server error: server is already active for displa 0.   if this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock and start again
[08:04] <mhhz> techie1: no... should show as ntfs
[08:04] <unop> Shrimpy,  are you sure this didnt return anything at the terminal.  sudo killall -9 gdm
[08:04] <tehxed> Quintin: I have a laptop though... so what...do you suggest? Just format?
exactly so what is with that?
[08:05] <david_> is  there a way to install linux in a fashion so that i can install say, ubuntu 6.06 and then 6.10 but not have to reinstall all the programs all over again?
[08:05] <joebob777as7> burepe what are source repositories?
[08:05] <omeil> unop: can't mount manually to see if ti works?
[08:05] <Quintin> tehxed: I would get the 386 disc and format and install with it...
[08:05] <omeil> unop:can't i mount manually?
[08:05] <burepe> joebob777as7: you are new to ubuntu? All packages (programs) come from repositories where programs are collected. If you set them up you can get nearly every program from them.
[08:05] <Quintin> david_: no.
[08:05] <techie1> should I be using something different than systemcd to repartition my drive?
[08:05] <mhhz> techie1: did you say ur XP partition is showing up as fat32?  that's wierd
[08:05] <Shrimpy> unop: whti sudo killall -9 gdm i get gdm no process killed
[08:05] <unop> omeil,  you could do that too .. i'm trying to hit two birds with one stone :)
[08:05] <techie1> yes
[08:05] <mhhz> techie1:I'm pretty sure XP needs ntfs
[08:05] <Quintin> mhhz: xp can be installed to fat32
[08:05] <Quintin> mhhz: you're wrong
[08:05] <unop> Shrimpy,  how about this.  sudo killall -9 X
[08:05] <omeil> unop: i did that once :D na not really
[08:06] <joebob777as7> burepe: i understand that but on that page there is a box that says: Tick this box to include source repositories (If unsure, then you don't want this.)
[08:06] <Shrimpy> x: no proces killed     unop
[08:06] <tehxed> Quintin: And then follow that setup again? http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Edgy_Installation_Guide#Method_2:_Install_the_8.34.8_Driver_Manually   Again?
me too because when going to control, etc... it shows through diskmanagment as NTFS
[08:06] <mhhz> okay... well.. techie1 - how do you know ur XP is ntfs and not fat32
[08:06] <mhhz> oh
[08:06] <burepe> joebob777as7: in windows you download programs. In ubutu most programs are opensource so they are collected in servers (repositories) all over the world. We get nearly all our programs with that
[08:06] <techie1> through the control panel.
[08:06] <gmz_> which ver of Ubuntu do you guys recommend 6.10 or 6.06?
[08:06] <unop> Shrimpy,  ok, run this command then.  sudo rm -rf /tmp/.X*
[08:06] <techie1> shows at ntfs
[08:06] <gmz_> ?
[08:07] <unop> Shrimpy,  and then.  startx
[08:07] <gmz_> which ver of Ubuntu do you guys recommend 6.10 or 6.06?
[08:07] <burepe> joebob777as7: you are unsure right? then you don't want it like it says
[08:07] <mhhz> Well... what do you care what gparted says... afterall you are installing ubuntu on the other partition anyway
[08:07] <Shrimpy> unop: no return
[08:07] <Quintin> tehxed: I looked at it briefly, it looks fine.  mainly, just have build-essential, kernel-headers, and get the driver from ati.amd.com
[08:07] <Shrimpy> ok i just hit start x
[08:07] <unop> Shrimpy,  yea rm does not usually return anything if it succeeds, thats normal  .. try startx now
[08:07] <Quintin> techie1: fdisk -l
[08:07] <tehxed> Quintin: Oh maaaan.. I have the ISO downloaded but no more CD's.. only DVD's =(
true why it concerns me that it shows as fat32 and I might be messing up
[08:08] <james296> can anyone answer my question???
[08:08] <Shrimpy> unop: its a odd screen like its black and whit pixels
[08:08] <Quintin> techie1: sucks to be you!
[08:08] <Quintin> I've got a huge stack of ubuntu 606 discs :p
[08:08] <Shrimpy> *white
[08:08] <omeil> unop: /dev/sda5             765        9729    72011331    7  HPFS/NTFS
[08:08] <omeil>  thats my ntfs hd.
what are you talking about?
[08:08] <david_> how about install 6.06 then have to reinstall it is there some way i can have different mount points to install programs to?
[08:09] <Quintin> techie1: fdisk -l to see partitions.  and use "Quintin:"  not "<Quintin>", that's confusing.
[08:09] <chorse> techie1: you can burn an CD sized ISO image onto a DVD
[08:09] <james296> WHAT IS WRONG WITH doc.gwos.org ???
[08:09] <unop> omeil,   1958 Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa   << my car :)
[08:09] <tetsu-san> hi
[08:09] <omeil> unop: really? :D
[08:09] <timoheikkila> 6.06 is a good choice because it has longer support from ubuntu
explain.. I am listening
[08:10] <omeil> unop: can i talk to u in pm i wanna post some text
[08:10] <chorse> techie1: just burn it like a dvd image
[08:10] <Quintin> chorse: pretty sure you can't.
[08:10] <james296> ok are my messages not going through or something....
[08:10] <unop> Shrimpy,  doesnt look good. this shoulda brought up your desktop
[08:10] <eric_> hello
[08:10] <techie1> I do not think you can
[08:10] <comradec> I'm having problems with my laptop monitor turning off the back light, when I set it to power off with xscreensaver, it powers off for like 10 secs after the time and then the backlight turns back on with a blankscreen, any ideas?
[08:10] <joebob777as7> burepe still not found... is it easy to compile from source? how do I make sure I have all the right programs to compile? in suse when I use smart it automatically installs all dependent packages to compile...
[08:10] <chorse> Quintin: sure you can. they are all just iso images and differ only in size.
[08:10] <james296> OMGOMGOMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[08:10] <unop> omeil,  we use the room because people can help, we contribute to the log, etc etc
if so, delineate the steps in here?

[08:11] <cyphase> how do you suspend a process that isn't the active process in a terminal
[08:11] <james296> I feel like Im being ignored
[08:11] <cyphase> not Ctrl+Z, but..
[08:11] <james296> I have waited patiently
[08:11] <Shrimpy> unop: ok i just need one file from the desktop to a flash drive how do i transfer it with ther terminal
[08:11] <cables> james296, what's your question again?
[08:11] <chorse> techie1: are you burning with nautilus oder gnomebaker?
[08:11] <james296> and got no response
[08:11] <unop> Shrimpy,  do you know where your flash drive is mounted?
[08:12] <mhhz> james296: what's ur question?
[08:12] <unop> james296,  ask a question
[08:12] <cables> james296, if no one knows the answer, no one will respond. Sorry, but there's nothing more to it.
[08:12] <eric_> question about partitions: i went back into windows and was going to use partition magic to make my windows partition smaller, and when it started it asked me if it should fix my partition table.  the result of that is that all the partitions are seen as one
[08:12] <burepe> joebob777as7: how is that program different from gimp? what do you mean not found? what are you looking in? I am just asking because you didn' know what a repository was and I want to make sure you are looking in the right place
[08:12] <eric_> anyone know how to fix that?

[08:13] <tehxed> Quintin:  Thank you. Good night.
[08:13] <james296> did you read what I just said?
[08:13] <joebob777as7> burepe: gimpshop is for us windows photoshop people it makes all options very similar

[08:14] <megafauna> Hi, VLC crashes when I try to play my Futurama DVD, any suggestions?

[08:14] <cables> joebob777as7, there's a gimpshop repository? I don't see one...
[08:14] <techie1> that's how I have burned the iso for ubuntu and others.

[08:14] <burepe> joebob777as7:  it might have a differnt package name. use synaptic and search for it
[08:14] <unop> omeil,  i would remove  UUID=8E7EC19E7EC17F87 from the ntfs-3g line

[08:15] <james296> what is wrong with doc.gwos.org?
[08:15] <kalorin> heh
i have
[08:15] <joebob777as7> cables not that i know of
[08:15] <techie1> the livecd works great
[08:15] <omeil> unop: yea i created it before :) when i wasn't succesful lol
[08:15] <megafauna> Hi, VLC crashes when I try to play my Futurama DVD, any suggestions? I have installed easyUbuntu and the system plays other DVDs as well
[08:15] <cables> james296, it's not loading for me. We don't know any more than you about it.
[08:15] <james296> I NEED to know whats wrong with doc.gwos.org
the livecd works great but I wanted to actually install this unto an already partitioned windows xp. That's whey I need to provide or resize my partition.
[08:16] <james296> ok
[08:16] <cables> james296, the server is down.
[08:16] <cables> james296, seriously, we don't know any more information about it than you.
[08:16] <chorse> techie1: ah, so i misunderstood you :)
[08:16] <mhhz> james296: how would anyone here know what's going on with that website other than it's down
[08:16] <james296> it has been down since 10:00...
[08:16] <joebob777as7> techie1 use gparted it rocks you should be able to resize with it
[08:16] <timoheikkila> I upgraded from 6.06 to 6.10 and now some programs like OOffice and Songbird which I just installed will not start at all. Net works ok. Do I have to reinstall 6.10
I got you.
[08:16] <amaan> how do i get folders with locks on them deleted?
[08:17] <fletch007> Quintin: ok I am through the reconfig of the xorg. so now I just reboot? and see?
[08:17] <unop> amaan,  you need to use the superuser for that
[08:17] <eric_> mhhz, i am not registered so i havent been able to respond
[08:17] <joebob777as7> timoheikkia you should be able to just reinstall those apps using apt
the dualboot should be straightforward except for that discrepancy in the systemcd language.
[08:17] <omeil> unop: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7458/
[08:17] <james296> it has to be a serious issue...its been down for 4 hours...
[08:17] <Quintin> fletch007: just ctrl + alt + backspace
[08:17] <yellow> amaan, sudo rm -rf /path/to.foler

[08:17] <james296> but that has to do with Ubuntu how is that off topic?
[08:17] <cables> james296, doc.gwos.org is not Ubuntu. You're not having an Ubuntu problem, so this is not the right place to be.
[08:17] <yellow> amaan, be careful, you might want to do ls /path/to/folder first to check if those are the files/folders you want to delete
[08:18] <eric_> mhhz: i didnt delete my partition table, it just seems to have done something with how it gets displayed in windows explorer or gparted
thanks anyway, maybe I need to go to sleep and think about this some more. Thanks nonetheless for input.
[08:18] <cables> james296, it does not have to do with Ubuntu, it has to do with someone else's servers going down.
[08:18] <eric_> mhhz: fdisk seems fine, and my windows partition is even mounted fine
[08:18] <amaan> thanks yellow
[08:18] <chorse> techie1: you're welcome
[08:18] <james296> it has to do with Ubuntu, without it I wont get my display running properly as I want it
[08:18] <unop> omeil,  are you dualbooting with windows?
[08:18] <cables> james296, then ask us here.
[08:18] <unop> !nvidia
[08:18] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:19] <omeil> unop: no. that partition used to be the one where i install games/and store downloads
[08:19] <james296> Im talking the LATEST driver update, the one that recently got out of beta
[08:19] <yellow> amaan, wildcards * and ? can also be used for rm and ls
[08:19] <cables> james296, if you're having an Ubuntu problem, ask us about the problem... don't ask us about a site which we have no control over.
[08:19] <omeil> unop: dosen't have windows on it.
[08:19] <yellow> (pretty much anything else amof )
[08:19] <unop> omeil,  used to be? does it not have anything on it anymore?
[08:19] <fletch007> Quintin. it seems to have worked . I am now at 1280x1024

[08:21] <eric_> mhhz: they dont show up in gparted, but they do show up in fdisk.  and i am able to mount the other ones, non linux ones.  my system is fine, except for in gparted and i want to resize them but cant

[08:23] <unop> Quintin,  wow, thats a long command for a simple at/cron :)
[08:23] <Kresjah_laptop> Anyone who can help me getting my machine up as a gateway server? I've been following a guide at yolinux.com, but at the last step where I add a route, I get a SIOCADDRT: Network is unreachable error
[08:23] <mhhz> eric_: so this is during installation of ubuntu?
[08:23] <omeil> unop: thats what ntfsdix tells me
[08:23] <cables> exs, is it getting stuck on a folder?
[08:24] <Quintin> unop: I do not know how much time I get to sleep, or when I get up.  so I have to do it manually
[08:24] <eric_> mhhz: i installed yesterday, but today i wanted to change the partition sizes so i went into windows and tried to use partition magic
[08:24] <exs> cables: no, there's hidden files in my trash (21gb infact)
[08:24] <unop> omeil,  this is not good my man .. you really need to get that disk to a windows machine unfortunately
[08:24] <cables> exs, you could go to the trash, show hidden files, and delete them
[08:24] <omeil> unop: and clean it
[08:24] <exs> cables:  done that, nothing shows up
[08:25] <unop> Quintin,  there's a alarm plugin for mplayer .. does just that :)
[08:25] <omeil> or the other option is to format it and turn it to linux
[08:25] <cables> exs, can you bring up a terminal?
[08:25] <exs> cables:  I know there's files in there because the disk usage analyzer tells me there is
[08:25] <unop> omeil,  yep, you know it :)
[08:25] <exs> cables:  yes.
[08:25] <Quintin> unop: google can't find it...
[08:25] <Quintin> ok, really leaving this time.. bie bie
[08:25] <cables> exs, ls -a ~/.Trash
[08:26] <wims> are there any package for ubuntu that contain mod_python ?

[08:32] <drewsus> Hello everyone!
[08:32] <vrkhans> can any one help me
[08:32] <cables> !anyone | vrkhans
[08:32] <ubotu> vrkhans: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[08:32] <kelsin> omeil: all ID software games run in linux natively, as well as Unreal2004 and others
[08:32] <Kresjah_laptop> Someone? I really need to get that gateway server up and running!
[08:33] <kelsin> omeil: which reminds me I need to finally buy quake 4 since it's cheap now
[08:33] <vrkhans> cable you know anything about my problem
[08:33] <RememberPOL> hmm
[08:33] <cables> vrkhans, ask your question
[08:33] <acid_phyre> anyone know why when i go to install 6.20 it wont load the partiton on manual?
[08:33] <RememberPOL> omeil: these commands solves the problem
[08:33] <RememberPOL> echo "quake3.x86 0 0 direct" > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss
[08:33] <RememberPOL> echo "quake3.x86 0 0 disable" > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0c/oss
[08:33] <cables> vrkhans, never mind, I didn't see you asked before.
[08:33] <vivid> Has anyone found a solution to installing games in cedega under Edgy? after running dpkg-reconfigure dash?
[08:33] <RememberPOL> i wonder what the real issue is though, oh well
[08:34] <mau> has anybody successfully installed WOW on Edgy?
[08:34] <omeil> vivid: don' u just install them normaly?
[08:34] <vivid> ^^^
[08:34] <kelsin> mau I have, it was just a matter of installing wine 9.30, then copying my windows isntall, I've heard the installer runs fine though
[08:34] <vivid> because of dash in edgy, no
[08:34] <acid_phyre> anyone have a issue when trying to install edgy of not being able to load the partiton  manual
[08:34] <vrkhans> error : busybox v1.1.3 (debian 1:1.1.3-2 ubuntu 3) .... /bin/sh: cant access tty; job countrol turned off

[08:35] <mau> kelsin, that easy huh?
[08:35] <vrkhans> cable did you read what i wrote
[08:35] <mau> so i can just run the installer if I have wine?
[08:35] <kelsin> yeah, make sure you get wine here: http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
[08:36] <kelsin> mau: follow those instrutions, wine past 9.28 I think runs wow without any patches, but if you add that repo you get the newest one, which for me runs War3, Starcraft and WoW right out of the box with no trouble at all

[08:42] <omeil> totem movie player is pretty good
[08:42] <ubm> acid_phyre i have found that if you just ask the question and wait someone will eventually answer it for you or at least point you in the right direction.  It looks like ardchoille is gone but im sure when he gets back he will help you with any question you have.
[08:42] <cables> exs, so you're wondering what's taking up all the space?
[08:42] <cables> exs, it's in your home directory. Probably a hidden folder
[08:43] <exs> cables: yes.
[08:43] <ubm> omeil totem owns i love that player.
[08:43] <cables> exs, my disk usage analyzer is showing hidden folders. Yours appears not to be.
[08:43] <exs> cables:  how do I fix this, what version is yours?
[08:43] <omeil> ubm: yup yup
[08:43] <cables> I'm using ubuntu 6.10
[08:44] <cables> esx ^^
[08:44] <acid_phyre> im just wondering why when i try to install edgy when i go to the partition table and try to manual partiton it locks up on me
[08:44] <wims> hmmm anyone have an idea why gedit becomes completely black when i run it with sudo ?
[08:44] <exs> cables:  so, what version is it? .. I'm also using edgy
[08:44] <acid_phyre> anyone else have that issue
[08:45] <kelsin> wims: maybe root has a wierd .gtkrc or .gtk2rc file in it's home directory?
[08:45] <acid_phyre> nvm i cant get no answer ill just drop it
[08:45] <ubm> acid_phyre is the partition ext3, and are you installing on a serial ata or ide? Is this on your notebook or desktop?
[08:46] <leros> i need help finding drivers for the synaptics touchpad on my laptop
[08:46] <cables> exs, i have no idea why it's not showing hidden files
[08:46] <kelsin> leros it didn't work right out of the box with a default ubuntu install?
[08:46] <acid_phyre> its a desktop and its a ide hard drive and yes i made a ext 3
[08:46] <leros> it works, but i need scrolling and stuff
[08:46] <ubm> acid_phyre are you using mkfs or a parted editor?
[08:46] <acid_phyre> and a swap
[08:46] <acid_phyre> im using the one when u click install
[08:47] <acid_phyre> on the cd
[08:47] <exs> cables:  I've stumbled upon something interesting.  http://www.marzocca.net/linux/baobab.html#changelog
[08:47] <leros> kelsin, perhaps i just need help configuring xorg.conf so I can enable functionality
[08:47] <acid_phyre> it looks all good then i click manual edit partition table and it freezes
[08:47] <ubm> acid_phyre ok did you have another operating system installed prior? Like with mabye an ntfs partition ?
[08:47] <acid_phyre> yes
[08:47] <umops> how can i change my current reslution frm the command line?
[08:47] <acid_phyre> but ive done it before with grub
[08:47] <kelsin> leros: in my ubuntu installs it has worked immediately without me having to edit anything, that's why I was asking
[08:47] <cables> exs, how is that interesting?
[08:47] <ubm> ok is this drive master or slave?
[08:48] <acid_phyre> drive is master
[08:48] <ubm> and are you trying to dual boot?
[08:48] <ubm> with grub
[08:48] <acid_phyre> i will be dual booting
[08:48] <leros> kelsin, well my touchpad works but I don't scrolling
[08:48] <acid_phyre> but no not yet
[08:48] <exs> cables:  well, the 'disk usage analyzer' appears to have changed its name to baobab, and the program has been majorly updated
[08:48] <koabara> hi, how can i deny access to user for a specific directory? for example /backup
[08:48] <acid_phyre> i made the partitions for it already
[08:48] <cables> exs, disk usage analyzer IS baobab. Just relabeled.
[08:48] <exs> cables: different version number
[08:49] <acid_phyre> but it wont load the partition table on manual
[08:49] <ubm> ok so you already have an ntfs partition is it active atm and what did you use to create the ext3 file system?
[08:49] <acid_phyre> freezes up
[08:49] <omeil> Can ubuntu get avi. convertion software?

[08:50] <umops> try install the dependency
[08:50] <kelsin> leros: make sure you ahve [Option "SHMConfig"]  (without the [] 's) in your xorg.conf then try one of the gui synaptics config programs
[08:50] <acid_phyre> i could just install 6.06 and upgrade
[08:50] <ultra> hello

[08:51] <kelsin> leros: (that line goes into the the right input device section like here: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/03/24/disable-synaptics-touchpad/ )
[08:51] <ubm> acid_phyre ok do this 'sudo apt-get install qtparted
[08:52] <koabara> my question is simple, i have a directory /backup/, only root can see the contents of this directory with ls command, but as this directory contains backup data, some files can be deleted by users. how can i prevent it to happen?
[08:52] <bushblows> is their a bash script or something I can create so that users on an ubuntu 6.06 server box cant become root, the only person who can gain root access hast to connecting from a certain IP
[08:52] <acid_phyre> yea thats what it keeps trying to load
[08:52] <ultra> i've installled beryl and is fantastic

[08:52] <ultra> what is the problem
[08:52] <umops> how can i change my current reslution frm the command line?
[08:52] <kelsin> leros: hope it works :) just an idea to make config easier
[08:52] <ubm> acid_phyre apt-get remove qtparted then reinstall
[08:52] <cables> exs, to find what's taking up all the space, open up your home folder, then go to view>show hidden files
[08:53] <ubm> if that dosnt work is the partition hda2?
[08:53] <cables> exs, then, on the right, choose View As List from the dropdown box. Click the Size column to sort by size.
[08:53] <acid_phyre> it worked

[08:54] <ubm> :P
[08:54] <acid_phyre> but it took that for someone to recognize
[08:54] <cables> exs, sorry... that doesn't sort by size, it sorts by number of items
[08:54] <acid_phyre> i do appreciate it alot thoujgh
[08:54] <acid_phyre> though
[08:55] <ubm> hey man no problem i know how it is bro
[08:55] <exs> cables:  its ok, don't worry, ill fix it
[08:55] <acid_phyre> dunno why i needed to do that bc edgy installed fine on this laptop
[08:56] <ubm> acid_phyre i have had similar issues in the past
[08:56] <ubm> what kind of notebook are you installing on?
[08:56] <acid_phyre> that was a desktop i was installing on there
[08:56] <Edward_> hi
[08:57] <acid_phyre> this is my sony vaio
[08:57] <voxvam> !colinux
[08:57] <gyaresu> bushblows: You might take a look at this. re: root access. http://www.die.net/doc/linux/man/man8/pam_wheel.8.html
[08:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about colinux - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:57] <voxvam> !ntfs
[08:57] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[08:58] <voxvam> !fuse
[08:58] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing using fuse here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[08:58] <ubm> heh let me ask you something when you created the partition initially did you commit? you mentioned that you used some 3rd party app to edit your disk right? I assume you did this from windows...
[08:58] <bushblows> gyaresu: thank you will do
[08:58] <voxvam> is it possible to install ubuntu to a fat file system
[08:58] <acid_phyre> yea i did it from windows
[08:59] <acid_phyre> makes since bc i did a complete install on this laptop
[08:59] <umops> how can i change my current reslution frm the command line?
[08:59] <acid_phyre> no dual boot
[08:59] <gyaresu> bushblows: I'm sorry I can't think, exactly how to do what you want. Maybe someone else will know.
[09:00] <kevcast> How do I get video support?
[09:00] <bushblows> well I should be able to figure it out, just did not know if it were possible
[09:00] <acid_phyre> kevcast: for which video card?
[09:01] <noobie0057> hello, ubuntu is not detecting my external 320 gig usb hard drive from Acomdata
[09:01] <ubm> umops you need to edit /etc/X11/XF86Config
[09:01] <gOLdenHaWK3D> hi all
[09:01] <cables> exs, you still here?
[09:01] <ubm> use nano or any editor really
[09:01] <exs> cables:  yes. i think it was just a display problem
[09:02] <CaptSaltyJack> whee.. xchat rocks
[09:02] <cables> exs, here's a command to sort all folders in your home folder by size: dir -a | xargs du -s | sort -g
[09:02] <ubm> CaptSaltyJack yeah xchat is the shiznic
[09:02] <umops> ubm, i dont have that file
[09:02] <CaptSaltyJack> i'm just going through different apps, seeing how easily I could replace Windows.  seems like it's pretty easy :)
[09:03] <CaptSaltyJack> WinXP really isn't all that
[09:03] <ubm> umops ok what window manager are you using?
[09:03] <umops> gnome
[09:03] <noobie0057> external hard drive not detected (fdisk -l returns nothing)
[09:03] <CaptSaltyJack> ok i'm out. later
[09:03] <voxvam> noobie0057, ok what type of system do you have
[09:04] <exs> cables:  1804532 gtk-gnutella-downloads, 4425776 Applications, 12954108 Torrents, 21068028, 21068036
[09:04] <ubm> umops /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:04] <noobie0057> voxvam: it's an old dell that used to have windows me on it
[09:04] <ubm> umops try xorgconfig to test
[09:04] <voxvam> does it have usb 2.0 ports
[09:04] <drfoz> anyone can tell me how to install nvidia drivers on feisty with the low latency kernel?
[09:04] <noobie0057> voxvam: yes
[09:04] <crimsun> drfoz: using the version in the repo or your own?
[09:05] <cables> exs, did that tell you which folders were taking up the most space?
[09:05] <noobie0057> voxvam: I can successfully use a usb internal hard-drive enclosure
[09:05] <crimsun> !envy > drfoz
[09:05] <umops> ubm, how do i run xorgconfig?
[09:05] <cables> exs, try this: dir -A | xargs du -s | sort -g -r
[09:05] <cables> exs,  that will list in descending order
[09:06] <exs> cables:  hmm, well, i think the problem I see is that 'torrents' being the largest directory should be under 'engle' (that is, my home directory)
[09:06] <voxvam> noobie0057, but that doesn't neccicerly mean u have usb 2.0
[09:06] <cables> exs, too many torrents?
[09:06] <ubm> umops goto xterm and run xorgconfig or  X -configure mv /root/xorg.conf.new /root/xorg.default.conf <--- for automatic configuration
[09:06] <exs> but because it is not, im under  afalse impression that there's hidden space... Its basically the error that disk usage analyzer does because torrents IS WITHIN engle
[09:07] <umops> ubm, i changed my resolution to smething my screen obviously doesnt like, it gives me 'out of range' error,  i think i just need to do something different
[09:07] <kevcast> acid_phyre: I'm not sure. The link to the specs is here http://www.dealtime.com/xPF-CPQ-SR1230NX-Desktop-CPQ-SR1230NX-Desktop.
[09:07] <umops> ubm, i will give that a shot
[09:07] <noobie0057> voxvam: it is compatible with 1.1 (so it says on the box), but yes the machine has only 1.1
[09:07] <cables> exs, that's weird. I guess you found the problem.
[09:07] <ubm> umops
[09:07] <ubm> ctrl + backspace
[09:07] <exs> basically, the problem that is going on is that disk usage analyzer is forgetting that torrents and the other folders are a sub-folder of engle.
[09:07] <umops> ubm, tried, and it is stuck in that resolution :(
[09:08] <ubm> ctrl _alt_backspace
[09:08] <DrBlink> ever since i enabled wifi on this laptop - boot up takes forever...anyone know why?
[09:08] <voxvam> noobie0057, on the box it says 1.1 compatible. hmmmmmm  ok have you tried to mount the hard drive yourself  and what file system is on the hd
[09:08] <umops> ubm, thanks, id tried that 3 times but now it works :)
[09:09] <ubm> ;)
[09:09] <umops> ubm, spoke too soon, when i actually login i get out of range error
[09:09] <ubm> ok thats alright
[09:10] <ubm> one sec
[09:10] <umops> ok
[09:10] <ubm> umops can you get into terminal?
[09:11] <umops> ubm, yea
[09:11] <ubm> what happens when you xconfig
[09:11] <noobie0057> voxvam: no,, I'm still new to new linux,, I'm not sure about the filesystem. I just pulled it out of the box. I'll look into how to mount it, discover the filesystem and if necessary format it. Thanks for the help!!
[09:12] <IProteus> I'm installing Ubuntu (EFT) on a brand new system with a 80GB unpartitioned harddrive.
[09:12] <IProteus> I want to
[09:12] <IProteus> 1) Leave about 10 GB for windows
[09:12] <IProteus> 2) Have home and program? partitions separate, so if there's a problem with the install or I want to upgrade, I'd like to just wipe the partition which does not contain my data and install
[09:12] <ubm> acid_phyre IProteus could use some help :)
[09:12] <IProteus> I'm not entirely sure how I go about #2. what mount point do I specify for this scheme etc? - I think the defualt partitioning simply creates one ext3 and one swap partition, not something I want.
[09:12] <umops> ubm, when i do X -configure, it says server is already active
[09:13] <ubm> ok can you do this Test and then use <CTRL>+<ALT>+<BKSP> to kill X  then  X -config /root/xorg.default.conf
[09:13] <voxvam> noobie0057, if you have just pulled it out of the box you need to format it. i suggest use gnome partition editor in system > administration
[09:14] <noobie0057> voxvam: oh ok, I'll try it
[09:16] <ubm> umops you may want to read this http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=129379&postcount=21
[09:16] <noobie0057> voxvam: I don't seem to have that program, I have Disks and Device Manager
[09:16] <ubm> also always make backups as in cp myfile myfile.bak
[09:16] <ubm> before you make a change :)
[09:17] <umops> ubm, ok thanks
[09:17] <IProteus> guys, any help? I just want to know aht mount point I need to use for the "home" paritition, just how I can make sure the progreams are installed into one partition and my home folder is on another.
[09:17] <chorse> IProteus: /home
[09:18] <chorse> IProteus: you can have a look on your mounts by typing `mount` or `df`
[09:18] <davs_coy> there are indonesian english
[09:18] <IProteus> okay, thanks. there aren't too many programs going to be installed - how much space do you suggest for root?
[09:19] <davs_coy> oi

[09:23] <Lice> anyone know what i could've missed?
[09:25] <voxvam> noobie0057, what do you want to store on this hard drive. do you want it so you can read and write with both windows and linux
[09:25] <noobie0057> voxvam: yes
[09:25] <noobie0057> coxvam: it's 320 gigs,, so I think I'll need to partition it a few times?
[09:26] <voxvam> noobie0057, do you have a windows comp lying around
[09:26] <noobie0057> vaxvam: yes
[09:26] <voxvam> noobie0057, you can have it as 1 massive partition
[09:26] <noobie0057> voxvam: sorry I'm getting your handle wrong
[09:26] <noobie0057> voxvam: ok, I'd prefer that
[09:27] <noobie0057> voxvam: I thought fat32 had some upper limit
[09:27] <voxvam> noobie0057, to make it readible to both systems you want to use a fat32 file system according to windows or vfat on linux
[09:29] <noobie0057> voxvam: ok,, thanks
[09:29] <voxvam> noobie0057, it doesn't have a limit. what your thinking about is the bios limit not to read drives larger then 32gb. but this is over comed by using a ddo Dynamic Drive Overlay  but since this is a usb disk and not internal you don't have to worry about limits
[09:30] <noobie0057> voxvam: ahh, ok. How should I proceed?
[09:31] <drewsus> hello everyone!
[09:31] <drewsus> hello all. I was wondering if I could seek some help. I have installed Ubuntu 6.10 on my desktop (amd 3800+, 128mb ATI Radieon x300, 768MB RAM, 120GB Western Digital IDE HDD, EliteGroup RX480-A Motherboard). The installation went fine, but after the first reboot the PC freezes at the Ubuntu Boot screen. The progress part hardly even has a chance to start moving. I thought maybe it just needed time, but I watched a movie and it still hadn't mo
[09:31] <drewsus> hda:hda dma_intr: status 0x51 {DriveReady SeekComplete Error}
[09:31] <drewsus> hda:dma_intr: error=0x84 {DriveStatusError BadCRC}
[09:31] <drewsus> ide:failed opcode was: unknown
[09:31] <drewsus> I then tried installing on a 40GB Maxtor IDE HDD. Exact same results. Can anyone offer any help? I really want to get Ubuntu up and running and free myself of Windows!
[09:31] <IProteus> is it possilbe to non-destructively resize an ext3 partition?
[09:31] <ubm> IProteus yes
[09:32] <voxvam> drewsus, sounds like a bad disk to me. how did you get this disk
[09:32] <IProteus> cool. I just skip the windows parition for now then.
[09:32] <ubm> yep
[09:32] <nowimproved> [00000267]  xvideo video output error: cannot allocate shared image data (No space left on device)

[09:32] <danp> anyone familiar with preseeding? i'm having a really hard time preseeding the admin password with the slapd package
[09:32] <IProteus> allright guys, thanks. I'll catch you later.
[09:33] <drewsus> they are from my old PC. I also have a SATA drive. So you think both of my IDE hard drives are dead at the same time? thats crappy
[09:33] <voxvam> drewsus, no i think the install cd is messed up
[09:33] <drewsus> but, I can install windows on both of these drives and it works fune
[09:34] <drewsus> hmm, I have also tried various install cds, burning at 4x
[09:34] <ubm> drewsus voxam just said its the install cd :)
[09:34] <unimatrix9> hello there
[09:35] <voxvam> drewsus, did you varify the burn?
[09:35] <unimatrix9> what has happened to gdesklets? is it obsolete?
[09:35] <drewsus> and I just said I tried various. desktop i386 (redownloaded, reburnt at x4), alternate i386, amd64 cd, ultimate 1.2 dvd. and I checked every cd I installed
[09:35] <unimatrix9> the home page seems to be gone...
[09:35] <omeil> can windows XP read Linux partitions? i mean read/write?
[09:36] <unimatrix9> was it incompatibale with beryl? what has replaced the gdesklets?
[09:36] <voxvam> omeil, NO i mean not as far as i know
[09:36] <red_lotus> why ubuntu don`t play dvds?
[09:36] <posingaspopular> red_lotus: it does
[09:36] <unimatrix9> omeil, there are two programs that read linux partitions from windows
[09:36] <drewsus> I suppose maybe I should give installing on my SATA Hitachi drive a try?
[09:36] <red_lotus> posingaspopular>
[09:37] <posingaspopular> what do you mean it doesnt?
[09:37] <voxvam> drewsus, thats awesome but what program did you use to burn the disks.
[09:37] <drewsus> nero
[09:37] <red_lotus>  well i just finish to make the instructions in the help and keeps don`t play well i finish 3 instructions to make play dvds in ubuntu to be right and nathing

[09:37] <ubm> red_lotus ist not ubuntu that dosnt play dvds its a legal issue which i cannot explain to you as it would take to long... the codecs dont come with the distro you need to install them yourself.
[09:38] <unimatrix9> omeil, whats your linux partition formatted as?
[09:38] <unimatrix9> ext 3?
[09:38] <drewsus> no, I suppose I could give that a try. but I did verify the cds upon boot.... I guess that is my last option. thank you for the advice, I will try and come back with my results. that you

[09:38] <omeil> unimatrix9: i think so
[09:38] <noobie0057> voxvam: I'm running into a problem. I don't have a file /dev/sda so I can't fdisk it
[09:39] <omeil> red_lotus: did u try download tthe codecs?

[09:41] <omeil> can ubuntu get different themes?
[09:41] <ubm> omeil yes
[09:41] <voxvam> noobie0057,use windows to format it. it works better that way
[09:42] <omeil> ubm: i tried getting one as a .deb package, i installed it but then i checked themes and nothing
[09:42] <ubm> omeil what windows manager are you currently using? kde gnome or fluxbox?
[09:42] <noobie0057> voxvam:  fat32 1 partition is ok?
[09:42] <sgraham> http://www.gnome-look.org/ is a good place for ubuntu themes.
[09:42] <omeil> ubm: im not sure what u mean by that :(
[09:42] <voxvam> noobie0057,yes
[09:42] <ubm> omeil its ok your probably using gnome
[09:42] <noobie0057> voxvam: thanks for your help!!
[09:43] <omeil> ubm: how do i check?
[09:43] <PseudoPlacebo> Hi I'm trying to aptitude something from my server and I get this error "Media Change: Please insert the disc labeled 'Ubuntu-Server 6.06.1 _Dapper Drake_ - Release i386 (20060807.1)' in the drive '/cdrom/' and press enter" but I don't have the CD- how do I set it to use the web?
[09:43] <omeil> ubm: yeah ithink its gnome. on the system drop down list it says GNOME
[09:43] <ubm> omeil when you login do you see an option called 'session' that will tell you your window manager
[09:43] <voxvam> noobie0057,thats what this channel is here for
[09:43] <ubm> gnome is default so your probably using gnome

[09:44] <n3rrd> Is there an easy way to check the address of the parallel port, outside of the BIOS in Ubuntu?
[09:44] <omeil> ubm: is gnome the best or?
[09:44] <ubm> the themes arnt .deb files they should be tarballs
[09:44] <ubm> or bziped
[09:44] <omeil> hmm weird
[09:44] <omeil> i got a .deb some how lol
[09:44] <ubm> omeil i use fluxbox but if your new to linux i would suggest gnome or kde
[09:45] <ubm> i personally like kde
[09:45] <n3rrd> Anyone know if there is a way to check the address of the parallel port through x-term?
[09:45] <omeil> ubm: is there a big difference?
[09:45] <ubm> omeil you can install kde with ease by going to terminal and using this command 'sudo apt-get install kde
[09:45] <ubm> omeil yes
[09:45] <DrBlink> ever since i enabled wifi on this laptop - boot up takes forever...anyone know why?
[09:45] <ubm> omeil check out kde-look.org
[09:45] <voxvam> foxiness, why dont you just extract the *.wmv file just by it's self that way you don't have to deal with then invallid name
[09:46] <foxiness> voxvam: this an backup of c: partition hold 40GB :)
[09:47] <Gfather> hello everyone
[09:47] <omeil> so is the kde look more customizable?
[09:47] <foxiness> voxvam: and i want to resotre it to /dev/hda1 mount it on /mnt/win
[09:47] <Gfather> is there someone who can help me with ubuntu 6.06?
[09:47] <ubm> omeil in my humble opinion yes
[09:47] <ubm> they are both great window managers... as for ease of use I prefer kde over gnome
[09:48] <foxiness> Gfather: this a help room just ask
[09:48] <Softly> hey
[09:48] <omeil> hmm i think i used the kde dekstop before. might have been through mandrake
[09:48] <n3rrd> no suggestions?
[09:48] <Xif> How do I install PHP (cl) on Ubuntu?
[09:48] <Softly> don't know
[09:48] <Gfather> foxiness: i got trouble with the size of certain screens and the letters when i need to login
[09:48] <Gfather> foxiness: and i got a problem with connecting to internet
[09:48] <hwdyki> which package is qtconfig in?
[09:49] <Gfather> Xif: which version of PHP?
[09:49] <Gfather> 4 or 5?
[09:49] <voxvam> foxiness, sorry i don't know much about tar i am quite new to linux  but to back up complete hard drives or partitions i used dd. to know more just man dd
[09:49] <Gfather> foxines: do you mind if i pm you?
[09:50] <foxiness> how can i change ubuntu defalut from utf-8 to local one ? like windows-xxxx?
[09:50] <omeil> i guess kde does look pretty cool.

[09:50] <exs> I'm using tomboy for sticky notes, but the notes are now in my task bar!... I would use 'sticky notes' but everytime i click an icon on the desktop, the notes disapear.
[09:50] <foxiness> Gfather: its better to ask your Q here to find who know the sol
[09:50] <omeil> sounds amazing lol :D
[09:51] <mayer> hey i need help with getting duel screen working, any1 that can help with that? i got Nvidia Asus EN7600GS with 2 19" neovo F-419 pm me if u like
[09:51] <Xif> Gfather: 4.3.9
[09:52] <omeil> ubm:superkaramba kde look?
[09:52] <Gfather> i use a pentium 2 computer with an old screen (640x480) with ubuntu. when i start up i need to enter my username. when i do that, the letters are so big that the text area only shows the middle 10% of the letters
[09:52] <Gfather> the same thing is when i go to Add/Remove tools.. the screen there is too big for my resolution
[09:52] <Gfather> how can i get everything to fit on my resolution?
[09:53] <illriginal> anyone know if there's such thing as a myspace irc channel.... tryin to get my hands on a good tracker.
[09:53] <omeil> ubm: is superkaramba a theme client?
[09:53] <Gfather> Binaries for other systems
[09:53] <Gfather> We do not distribute UNIX/Linux binaries. Most Linux distributions come with PHP these days, so if you do not want to compile your own, go to your distribution's download site.
[09:53] <Gfather> Xif
[09:53] <Gfather> read above
[09:53] <Gfather> i found that on www.php.net (official php site)
[09:54] <KenSentMe> illriginal, Google for myspace and irc, you can find some, but i don't know how crowded they are
[09:54] <Gfather> downloadlinks at: http://www.php.net/downloads.php
[09:54] <illriginal> yeah that's what i typed, "myspace irc channel"
[09:54] <oggy> I dont understand how automatix can disappear out of no where
[09:54] <oggy> just when I was getting ubuntu setup
[09:55] <Flannel> Xif: you can download either PHP5 or PHP4, 5 is 5.1.6, 4 is 4.4.2
[09:55] <diazepam> can anyone tell me what command i need to add to this line to get it to automatically insert a date into the filename of this tar archive:   $ tar cfvj backup.tar.bz2 $USER
[09:55] <Flannel> oggy: Automatix is a great way to break your system
[09:55] <Xif> Flannel: yeah, I'm looking for the CLI version specifically.
[09:55] <omeil> cedega takes long to install games
[09:55] <Flannel> Xif: that's the -cli package
[09:55] <oggy> didnt break mine
[09:55] <Flannel> Xif: php4-cli php5-cli
[09:55] <Xif> Flannel: yes, found it, thanks :)
[09:55] <oggy> worked ok
[09:55] <Flannel> !worksforme | oggy
[09:55] <ubotu> oggy: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[09:56] <oggy> then how do I installk swiftfox now
[09:56] <oggy> install even
[09:57] <oggy> now I have to research all over the internet on how to get swiftfox installed
[09:57] <omeil> So does world of warcraft work with wine?
[09:57] <Xif> ah, my Ubuntu looks so fine in that nifty T-ish Ubuntulooks.
[09:57] <Xif> omeil: yes.
[09:57] <Flannel> omeil: it does.
[09:57] <omeil> hmm interesting
[09:57] <oggy> Flannel how do I get swiftfox
[09:57] <omeil> Xif can i see a screeny ofur ubuntu :D
[09:57] <oggy> ?
[09:58] <omeil> gdb: its ok :D its for the good of the WOW lol
[09:58] <gdb> :-)
[09:58] <Flannel> oggy: download the .deb from the website, and install it by doubleclicking on it
[09:58] <Xif> omeil: NO!  she's only mine ;)
[09:58] <omeil> i can't play anything at the moment :(
[09:58] <oggy> how am I going toget a 32bit browswer on my 64bit ubuntu install
[09:58] <gdb> omeil: Speaking of WoW on Linux, I run it on XP, but I know people run it under Cedega (wine+dx9 support).  Does it work under stock Wine or does one need Cedega?
[09:58] <oggy> wheres the website FLannel
[09:59] <Xif> omeil: (get the T-ish pack here: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=30859 )
[09:59] <Gfather> is here anyone dutch with some knowledge about networking in ubuntu?
[09:59] <Flannel> oggy: I have no idea.  google says it's at getswiftfox.com
[09:59] <factotum> stock wine should work
[09:59] <Flannel> oggy: but, it appears to be down at the moment
[09:59] <goetiaoccultus> anyone know of software for ubuntu that is good for remote data gathering for research ? similiar to a web crawler or rss readers
[09:59] <oggy> oh thats nice
[09:59] <oggy> thanks
[09:59] <factotum> room mate had it running on gentoo with wine for a while
[09:59] <omeil> dgb:im not sure. i know wine might be capable of running it. cedega im pretty sure it runs it. but apparently people are being banned cause of using cedega to lplay wow..well thats what i heard from a forum
[10:00] <omeil> doh
[10:00] <gdb> omeil: That happened a few months ago and everyone's access was restored.
[10:00] <factotum> heh crossover office even supports it. im sure reg wine will work fine
[10:00] <omeil> gdb: or people are just lying i guess
[10:00] <gdb> omeil: Blizzard's software that is used to detect cheats generated false positives for Linux users.
[10:00] <oggy> so what do I use for a 32bit browser now
[10:00] <Flannel> oggy: firefox is installed
[10:00] <omeil> gdb: oh
[10:01] <gdb> omeil: Nah, I read the thread on the boards. Some devs posted about it and apologized to everyone
[10:01] <oggy> yeah and does firefox have adobe macromedia flash in 64bit
[10:01] <oggy> ?
[10:01] <gdb> omeil: Everyoen that was banned using Cedega was banned due to a false positive on a cheat detection.  Blizzard reinstated them all.
[10:01] <oggy> Flannel?
[10:02] <gdb> oggy: don't believe it does
[10:02] <Flannel> oggy: no.  But neither does swiftfox
[10:02] <omeil> gdb: hmm oh well there is no one to blame :)
[10:02] <foxiness> hi,how can i change the default of my system to be locale one like windows-1256 "not utf-8"?
[10:02] <oggy> swiftfox is 32bit and allows for its installation
[10:02] <gdb> :-D
[10:02] <oggy> yes it does cause I was using it
[10:02] <Flannel> oggy: oh.
[10:02] <Flannel> !chroot | oggy
[10:02] <omeil> gdb: i expected wow to be better tho. u expect more battles but nothing happens :D
[10:02] <ubotu> oggy: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot use this to build 32 bit environments on a 64 bit box
[10:03] <gdb> omeil: I'm in Sethekk Halls now on my rogue.  It's pretty hectic. ;-)
[10:03] <Flannel> oggy: See that on instruction.  You should've said this at the beginning.  You're looking for a whole different set of answers.
[10:03] <oggy> you mean I have to go through all of that just to get a working 32bit browser
[10:03] <oggy> ?
[10:03] <gdb> foxiness: is there such a locale?
[10:03] <Flannel> oggy: yes.  And you would for swiftfox too.
[10:03] <oggy> no I would install automatix and I wouldnt have to
[10:03] <Flannel> oggy: actually, you can't for swiftfox.  Because the deb would be 32bit.
[10:04] <gdb> While I understand the 'geek factor' in running 64 bit Linux, I see absolutely no valid justifcation for doing so on a home PC.
[10:04] <omeil> gdb: i don't see a big difference between the official servers and the private servers :D
[10:04] <omeil> gdb so u dual boot?
[10:04] <gdb> omeil: No
[10:04] <oggy> gdb no audio drivers with 32bit ubuntu
[10:04] <oggy> 64bit drivers for unbuntu yes
[10:04] <omeil> gdb: so how are u playing WoW?
[10:04] <oggy> thats what I run 64bit ubuntu
[10:05] <omeil> gdb: or are u only on xp
[10:05] <foxiness> gdb: what you mean?
[10:05] <Flannel> oggy: What are you talking about?  There's a binary driver released for 64bit only?  Which one?
[10:05] <gdb> omeil: I run WoW in a full screen window and use NX client to get a desktop on my Ubuntu machine.
[10:05] <Xif> I'm getting "PHP Warning:  mime_magic: type regex            BEGIN[[:space:] ] *[{]     application/x-awk invalid in Unknown on line 0" trying to run php-cli
[10:05] <gdb> I'm alt-tabbing back and forth waiting for our warrior to get back online from going DC
[10:05] <Xif> anyone knows why/how to fix?
[10:06] <oggy> I tried kubuntu , opensuse , and 32bit ubuntu none allow me to use audio
[10:06] <gdb> foxiness: I've never heard of a system locale in the format windows-*
[10:06] <zoidberg> hey guys
[10:06] <gdb> oggy: bizarro
[10:06] <goetiaoccultus> anyone here use eclipse?
[10:06] <zoidberg> how do you get the fancy transparent terminal that everyone has
[10:06] <zoidberg> i'm using xubuntu and would really like a transparent terminal
[10:06] <Flannel> oggy: 64bit and 32bit ubuntu are virtually identical.  Except in 64bit you can't use the binary-only drivers 32bit has
[10:07] <centrinel> is fluxbox cool for ubuntu?
[10:07] <goetiaoccultus> !aterm
[10:07] <gdb> zoidberg: click on Edit -> Profiles in GNOME terminal
[10:07] <omeil> u lost me when u said stuff about the stuff
[10:07] <ubotu> aterm: Afterstep XVT - a VT102 emulator for the X window system. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.0-2 (edgy), package size 78 kB, installed size 224 kB
[10:07] <gdb> select to edit one
[10:07] <gdb> tab to Effects
[10:07] <gdb> and check Transparacy
[10:07] <gdb> Transparancy
[10:07] <oggy> 32bit ubuntu does not allow for audio on this machine
[10:07] <leros> the people in #beryl were unable to help me, so maybe guys can. When I start up Ubuntu, beryl-manager loads but Metacity is my default window manager. Is there a way I can make Beryl my default window manager?
[10:07] <foxiness> gdb: i have tar file with many-folder name it on windows with local char asci "windows-1256" what appear to me like that "??????????????" and tar give me this output "tar: mnt/win/blabla/?????????/something.wmv: Cannot open: No such file or directory ,,,, tar: Skipping to next header" .... and you can know what i need now
[10:07] <gdb> zoidberg: the gnome-terminal that comes with the default install does it fine
[10:08] <Flannel> leros: #ubuntu-effects for Beryl support
[10:08] <gdb> foxiness:  the tar file is on a windows system?
[10:08] <Angel> is there anyone who can help me with a few quick questions... i just installed ubntu
[10:08] <foxiness> gdb: i need to let tar can mange local char like above one
[10:09] <gdb> foxiness: I think your archive is corrup.
[10:09] <gdb> corrupt
[10:09] <Angel> what is the initial username that ubuntu provides
[10:09] <gdb> foxiness: the character set doesn't determine how software reads what's in the file, it determines only how it's displayed
[10:09] <gdb> Angel: Did you do an OEM install?
[10:09] <Angel> yes
[10:10] <gdb> I think it's "ubuntu" -- I can't recall.
[10:10] <DarthLappy> Angel: I think it's oem, actually.
[10:10] <gdb> DarthLappy: yeah, i think you're right
[10:10] <Angel> YES
[10:10] <Angel> ok another thing
[10:11] <Angel> i had XP3 on my laptop before
[10:11] <gdb> The default user account on my systems is always "cbell" for me.
[10:11] <Angel> and now ubuntu seems to be slower
[10:11] <gdb> :-)
[10:11] <ackbahr> Hello! I've got Edgy. When I start KDE, Konversation start as well. How can I prevent that?
[10:11] <DarthLappy> XP3?
[10:11] <Angel> and also a few of the characters are missing when im writing in OpenOffice
[10:11] <foxiness> gdb: when tar can not read correct the mkdir can not work
[10:11] <eat_books> hello everyone. i have a question: can anyone please tell me how to install KoolDock on ubuntu edgy?
[10:11] <Angel> you can google it cant u :P xp3 is just addons to xp sp 2
[10:12] <eat_books> i have downloaded the package, but i have no idea what to do next.
[10:12] <gdb> foxiness: the character set determines how characters are displayed on the terminal, not tar's ability (or inability) to read a given archive.
[10:12] <DarthLappy> Angel: Heh, well I'm not a Windows person.
[10:12] <Angel> id think so :D
[10:12] <gdb> eat_books: It's just a .deb package file?
[10:13] <gdb> eat_books: $ sudo dpkg -i package_name.deb
[10:13] <eat_books> gdb: it's a .tar.gz file
[10:13] <cookthis> how do i mount my windows hardrive again?
[10:13] <omeil> umm how do u install a file from gnome-look?
[10:13] <Flannel> Angel: it is oem, and you need to do "sudo oem-config-prepare" then reboot to get to the real user creation step
[10:13] <eat_books> gdb: shall i give this command a try with a .tar extension?
[10:14] <cookthis> !mount
[10:14] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[10:14] <Angel> how do i run?
[10:14] <gdb> eat_books: Ah, $ tar zxvf archive_name.tar.gz && cd archive_name && ./configure && make
[10:14] <eat_books> thank you!
[10:14] <cookthis> !GParted
[10:14] <ubotu> gparted is gparted is a GUI partitioning program, "sudo apt-get install gparted", also available as a live cd http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[10:14] <eat_books> gdb: i will give it a try and report shortly :)
[10:14] <gdb> the && means "execute the command on the right side if and only if the command on the left side complete's successfully"
[10:15] <noobie0057> hello, I have a new acomdata external drive. I can't get it mounted to format it. It has a bunch of stupid pre-installed "features" on it. Windows recognizes it as a CD then allows you to interface with it though a program. I'd like to reformat it. Does anyone know how to do this?
[10:15] <gdb> ie; foo && bar -- only run bar if foo completed successfully, if foo did not complete successfully, do not execute bar
[10:15] <Angel> how do i do a sudo oem-config-prepare?? whats sudo
[10:15] <omeil> How do i install 37395-Avio-GDM.tar.gz its a gnonme theme
[10:15] <omeil> sudo is so it gives u administrative access
[10:15] <omeil> to make root changes
[10:16] <Angel> how do i get to sudo
[10:16] <DinkyDogg> angel: sudo means "super user do"
[10:16] <Ayabara> hello people. is it possible to get an equalizer for rythmbox?
[10:16] <Angel> and how do i do a sudo oem-config-prepare
[10:16] <gdb> Angel: $ sudo command_you_want_to_run
[10:16] <DinkyDogg> angel: it makes the command execute as an administrator
[10:16] <gdb> angel: alternatively, sudo -i (for a root shell)
[10:16] <centrinel> sudo su <- gain root xs
[10:16] <pirothezero>  so if i am on kubuntu, and i want to try out gnome and xfce, what do i have to do, dont really want to run a burn and install

[10:18] <DinkyDogg> angel: why the sad face? females are great!
[10:18] <gdb> Angel: You just made a mistake.
[10:18] <Angel> gdb: how is that?
[10:18] <DinkyDogg> angel: go to Applications > Accessories > Terminal
[10:19] <DinkyDogg> angel: you can type commands in there
[10:19] <highneko> Hello. I'm wanting to install mame and all the games. I searched and found "xmame" in the repo's. Will installing this get me the games too? Any suggestions?
[10:19] <gdb> Angel: You just told 911 dorky Linux geeks that you're a chick.
[10:19] <Angel> HAHA was i suppose to lie :P
[10:19] <Angel> but i guess i know what you mean

[10:20] <gdb> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[10:20] <eat_books> thanks
[10:20] <gdb> sure thing
[10:20] <Angel> sudo oem-config-preparesymlink permission denied
[10:21] <gdb> oh and eat_books, if you ever paste anything here that is 3 lines or less
[10:21] <gdb> and someone yells at you
[10:21] <gdb> tell them to stuff it
[10:21] <eat_books> thanks
[10:21] <oggy_> how do I make this beryl cube transparent
[10:21] <oggy_> ?
[10:21] <gdb> 3 or less is channel policy :-P
[10:21] <eat_books> i have no idea how to behave in here, it's my first time thanks for the tips
[10:21] <hwdyki> how can i get gaim to minimise to the panel in xfce?
[10:21] <omeil> melt it
[10:21] <gdb> eat_books: actually, there is some information in the channel /topic
[10:22] <gdb> eat_books: in general, following the Ubuntu CoC is enough (Code of Conduct) which boils down to, in essense, "Be excellent to one another."
[10:22] <omeil> 37395-Avio-GDM.tar.gz theme manager tells me invalid format???
[10:22] <Golstaff> lol- party on dudes
[10:22] <eat_books> gdb: :) okay. i pasted the error in the paste bin. shall i give you the link?
[10:22] <Xif> for all interested: the solution to my previous problem is here: http://forum.lighttpd.net/topic/462
[10:22] <gdb> eat_books: yes, you can paste the URL in here
[10:22] <rolferic> Morning.. or Hello, depends where you are... I have a question I want to see if I can come closer to an answer... about screen resolution
[10:22] <eat_books> gdb: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7462/
[10:23] <gdb> eat_books: the directory will be 'kooldock' without the tar.gz portion
[10:23] <omeil> gdb:its a gdm them it keeps telling invalid file format :(
[10:23] <eat_books> gdb: roger that.
[10:24] <gdb> omeil: oh a gdm theme?
[10:24] <gdb> hrm
[10:24] <omeil> yea
[10:24] <gdb> then you want to install it using the GDM control panel
[10:24] <lesshaste> gnome network manager doesn't seem to recognise madwifi at all.  Even after I got the wireless connection up and running manually nm-applet still tells me there is no network to configure
[10:24] <gdb> System -> Administration -> Login Manager
[10:24] <lesshaste> anyone know about this?
[10:24] <gdb> er Login Window
[10:24] <centrinel> erm
[10:24] <gdb> omeil: I thought you had a GNOME desktop theme there.
[10:24] <eat_books> gdb: it gives me the same error, even after i correct it
[10:24] <centrinel> i have no problem with that lesshaste
[10:25] <lesshaste> centrinel: you use madwifi?
[10:25] <omeil> lol i though so too -_-
[10:25] <gdb> eat_books: well, just run the "tar zxvf kooldock-0.3.tar.gz" and then see if it makes a new directory -- that's the one you want to cd into.
[10:25] <centrinel> no. :p
[10:25] <lesshaste> centrinel: which version of the driver?
[10:25] <eat_books> gdb: nope, same error.
[10:26] <omeil> gdb: on gnome look what should i click on the menu for gnome desktop themes?
[10:26] <eat_books> gdb: that's in terminal too, right?
[10:26] <gdb> eat_books: yes
[10:26] <DrBlink> how can i enable a verbose startup?
[10:26] <lesshaste> centrinel: what are you using?
[10:26] <gdb> omeil: gnome desktop themes?  System -> Preferences -> Theme
[10:26] <eat_books> gdb: doesn't work. i'll try to google it some more, although nothing came up last time.
[10:26] <eat_books> gdb: thank you!
[10:27] <omeil> gdb: i ment on gnome-look.org what do i click to browse the dekstop themes?
[10:27] <centrinel> lesshaste: some cheap wifi router
[10:27] <Angel> how do i figure out my keyboard layout?
[10:27] <lesshaste> centrinel: ok... so you are not using the madwifi drivers on your laptop?
[10:27] <Angel> nvm

[10:28] <centrinel> but i dont have any problem with gnome network manager
[10:28] <lesshaste> centrinel: no problem
[10:28] <omeil> gdb: nevermind find out where :). how and how did u play wow again what NX client?
[10:29] <oggy_> how do I make this beryl cube transparent
[10:29] <gdb> omeil: I installed the freenx packages on my Ubuntu system and then the NX Client for Windows from http://www.nomachine.com/ on my Windows XP machine.  I use this software to get a remote X desktop on my Ubuntu system.
[10:29] <oggy_> ?
[10:29] <rolferic> Anyone can give me a hint why Ubuntu Linux can't change screen resloution from 1024x768 to 800x600 when using vesa drivers with a 1024x768 laptop with S3 Twister graphic card?
[10:30] <Golstaff> i can't even figure out how to install beryl
[10:30] <acid_phyre> whats the command to install java and the update?
[10:30] <acid_phyre> can someone plez tell me
[10:30] <pradeep> oggy_, #beryl
[10:30] <omeil> gdb: so you login remotly to the xp machine and play off remote?
[10:30] <oggy_> isnt there another channel called beryl effect
[10:30] <gdb> omeil: I'm sitting in front of the XP machine.  The Ubuntu machine is sitting off to my right.
[10:31] <omeil> gdb: oh lol
[10:31] <omeil> gdb: so your on 2 machines :)
[10:31] <rolferic> The only way doing that is to run/ or edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf to not showing 1024x768 resolution at all, in that why the system will enter the highest resolution given in xorg.conf which is 800x600 after that change.
[10:31] <gdb> I have another NX desktop open to a machine at work, as well.
[10:31] <bfdhud>  Anyone know of a recent howto for installing compiz over KDE w/ nvidia 9 series drivers? It seems all the sites I know of are down or just plain borked
[10:31] <rolferic> with windows it works "fine" looks terrible but works.
[10:32] <omeil> my nvidia drivers isn't having 3d acceleration for some unknown reason :( only opengl is working
[10:34] <acid_phyre> can someone help me with installing nvidea drivers?
[10:35] <DinkyDogg> Hi. I am having a problem with visual glitches when I boot to Ubuntu or Kubuntu from the LiveCD. When I get past the basic booting stuff, and get to the intro screen, the picture is all garbled. I get the general color of the screen, but it's all streaked and impossible to read. Is there some way to change my video settings from the command prompt? I can ctrl+alt+f1 to the command prompt okay.
[10:36] <omeil> does xchat have a userl ist?
[10:36] <centrinel> is there shortcut cmd to run terminal?
[10:37] <acid_phyre> anyone alive?
[10:37] <rolferic> DinkyDogg: you can change resolution through a config file, but that needs a restart of X, but you are on a live CD only
[10:37] <rolferic> ?
[10:37] <DinkyDogg> yes
[10:37] <DinkyDogg> rolferic: i do not have linux installed yet
[10:37] <acid_phyre> anyone know how to install nvidea drivers plex and ty
[10:37] <DinkyDogg> is it possible to install ubuntu with the command line?
[10:38] <lesshaste> how do I see packages that in 7.0x?
[10:38] <lesshaste> that are in
[10:38] <pramz> DinkyDogg: there is a text based installer
[10:38] <rolferic> DinkyDogg: I haven't worked with a live CD that much, just used it so see if it works or show others..
[10:38] <DinkyDogg> pramz: where?
[10:39] <pramz> DinkyDogg: when you boot up the livecd, it gives you a list of options on the installer
[10:39] <pramz> DinkyDogg: and one of them is for text mode install or something like that
[10:40] <jo_> is here somebody with ubuntu-media experience?
[10:40] <DinkyDogg> pramz: i see an option for "Install a command-line system" - that what you mean? I'll try it
[10:40] <rolferic> DinkyDogg: And in that text based I belive you will run a session to choose resolution and drivers for your screen. You need to try out and see what the system think you have and work
[10:41] <DinkyDogg> rolferic and pramz: Thank you both. I'm gonna mess with the text-based intaller and see what i can do.
[10:41] <rolferic> DinkyDogg: Good luck!
[10:41] <DinkyDogg> thanks

[10:44] <jo_> #nvidia
[10:44] <rolferic> lesshaste: As far as I know doesn't it matter what these interfaced is called. ath0 indicates something with your chipset you are using in you wifi card, wifi is the "mordern" term for talking about a wireless zone/card/standard

[11:26] <dmb062082> anyone?
[11:26] <dmb062082> and should i tar it up 1st?
[11:27] <ikonia> dmb062082: you don't backup everything from /
[11:27] <ikonia> you re-install
[11:27] <ikonia> you keep your data in your home dir
[11:27] <ikonia> and back that up
[11:27] <posingaspopular> ah russian writing. i need to get more into that
[11:27] <unop> ikonia,  hmm, i tend to back up all *.conf files from /
[11:27] <ikonia> unop: thats different than backing up /
[11:27] <vivid> hello, i just did a fresh install of dapper and now my system is having trouble locating libraries.  Ive had this problem in the past, i just cant seem to remember how to fix it
[11:27] <ikonia> vivid: can you give me an example
[11:28] <dmb062082> oh i would need to back everything up guy
[11:28] <kenthomson> I am trying to set up a "Panasonic nv-gs 57", handycam which also acts as a webcam on my Ubuntu 6.10 box. It connects to the computer with a USB. Can someone tell me how should i go about making it work as a webcam (i know it does work as a webcam on a PC).
[11:28] <ikonia> dmb062082: why ?
[11:28] <vivid> ikonia: libcairomm, all are installed including dev, so's are in /usr/lib, yet the system fails to see it
[11:28] <dmb062082> lots and lots of config work here
[11:28] <ikonia> vivid: can you give me an example of the failure
[11:29] <ikonia> dmb062082: just backup the configs
[11:29] <dmb062082> like apache and a few web sites... my /home  obviously vmware and a few guest os
[11:29] <dmb062082> quite a bit
[11:29] <ikonia> dmb062082: its very unwise to restore the whole of / as a fresh install
[11:29] <dmb062082> ikonia what do you mean?
[11:29] <ikonia> dmb062082: you just backup configs and data - not the whole file system
[11:29] <vivid> ikonia: error while loading shared libraries: libcairomm-1.0.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[11:30] <dmb062082> ikonia why is that a bad thing?
[11:30] <vivid> getting the same error on other installed libraries as well
[11:30] <kenthomson> Can someone please help me setup a webcam?
[11:30] <dmb062082> I am not getting cocky i just dont understand =)
[11:30] <ikonia> dmb062082: corruption (over simplifying)
[11:30] <ikonia> dmb062082: no no - thats fine to ask
[11:30] <dmb062082> due to?
[11:30] <ikonia> vivid: permissions/ld.so.conf ?
[11:30] <gerhard> does anyone know where is the ! upside down on the spanish keyboard?
[11:30] <ikonia> dmb062082: there is more to the box than just the file system
[11:31] <ikonia> !es >gerhard
[11:31] <_goofy_> will firefox read a phtml file
[11:31] <dmb062082> if i tarred everything up shouldnt i be fine?
[11:31] <ikonia> dmb062082: permissions, links, that sort of thing
[11:31] <vivid> ikonia: i tried adding /usr/lib and a couple other entries to ld.so.conf, which was non-existent before i created it, and ran ldconfig with no success
[11:31] <dmb062082> because im ready to back up soon and i dont know what to or not back up
[11:31] <gerhard> ikonia, many thx -.-
[11:31] <ikonia> gerhard: no problem
[11:32] <ikonia> vivid: how did you install those libraries - through apt/synaptic or compile from source
[11:32] <vivid> apt-get
[11:32] <ikonia> vivid: what about the program that "wants" them
[11:32] <ubm> dmb062082 well dont forget to backup important configuration either as in the /etc directory...
[11:32] <vivid> same, however its a program that i compiled myself
[11:32] <samue> Is it most difficult/risky to install Ubuntu on a laptop than on a big computer ?
[11:33] <ubm> samue no
[11:33] <ikonia> dmb062082: just backup the things you need to - i the box crashes do a fresh install and restore the configs/data
[11:33] <oggy_> should be easier on a laptop
[11:33] <oggy_> maybe even perform better on a laptop
[11:33] <ikonia> vivid: there's the problem
[11:33] <vivid> long ago, has worked without problems, i tried to recompile, but im having the same issue with its dependency lib not found during compile, but i get no warning for it when i run the precompiled app
[11:33] <jim2>  #ubuntu-fr
[11:33] <RLionheart> I don't think so. You might want to do it with a wired network connection if you have Broadcom wireless just in case you have extra config to do to get that working tho
[11:33] <ikonia> vivid: of course not the pre-compiled app is linked
[11:34] <vivid> and the lib is installed
[11:34] <RLionheart> That's the main thing that didn't just work for me on my HP Pavilion
[11:34] <ikonia> vivid: yes - but when you are compiling its not linking against it
[11:34] <vivid> yet when i go to recompile its not found
[11:34] <aalhamad> how do i force quit in ubuntu?
[11:34] <ikonia> aalhamad: what ?
[11:34] <aalhamad> force quit
[11:35] <ikonia> vivid: maybe it can't see/find the lib in the location it expects
[11:35] <ikonia> aalhamad: force quit of what ?
[11:35] <_goofy_> how can i get firefox to open a PHTML page
[11:35] <aalhamad> a program
[11:35] <ikonia> _goofy_:  put in the URL or the page location
[11:35] <ikonia> aalhamad: what program
[11:35] <vivid> ikonia: the location all the libs im having issues with are /usr/lib
[11:35] <aalhamad> i program that freezes
[11:35] <_goofy_> firefox wont open it.....it gives me a download box
[11:36] <ikonia> aalhamad: if your not going to answer my questions - I'm not going help - good look
[11:36] <lesshaste> how do you check for updates to installed packages in ubuntu?
[11:36] <amaan> how do you change the ubuntu icon in the top panel?
[11:36] <ikonia> _goofy_: thats a web server issue
[11:36] <ikonia> vivid: show me the error when you try to configure the package for building (not the make)
[11:36] <_goofy_> the page is local
[11:36] <ikonia> _goofy_: there you go then
[11:36] <ikonia> _goofy_: its being served as a file - rather than html

[11:42] <Li`lEndi1n> Hi, when using fdisk to partition a drive to use vfat for both windows and linux, what system label ID should i use?
[11:42] <Li`lEndi1n> there's vfat32(LBA) and vfat32.
[11:42] <ikonia> Li`lEndi1n: I'd advise against using vfat for an ubuntu install
[11:42] <mojo> ikonia: same reason ppl need proof-readers ;)
[11:42] <Li`lEndi1n> not vfat- just W95 FAT32
[11:42] <ikonia> Li`lEndi1n: depends if you want lba
[11:42] <kenthomson> I am trying to set up a "Panasonic nv-gs 57", handycam which also acts as a webcam on my Ubuntu 6.10 box. It connects to the computer with a USB. Can someone tell me how should i go about making it work as a webcam (i know it does work as a webcam on a PC).
[11:42] <ikonia> mojo exactly
[11:43] <ikonia> Li`lEndi1n: I would advise against using a non-unix based file system for an install
[11:43] <kenthomson> no-one?
[11:43] <Li`lEndi1n> ikonia: I am going to use an ordinary internal HD via those IDE-to-USB thing-a-majigs-
[11:43] <Li`lEndi1n> its not for installing ubuntu
[11:44] <Li`lEndi1n> i am asking cause i found out that if i use the default linux system id label, it doesnt work with windows
[11:44] <ikonia> kenthomson: try the forums
[11:44] <kenthomson> ikonia, no luck at ubuntuforums or google
[11:44] <ikonia> Li`lEndi1n: the label shouldn't matter to windows
[11:44] <Li`lEndi1n> oh? gosh, i am confused now. must be something else then.
[11:44] <ikonia> kenthomson: sorry - based on your past lack of using the forums/google/wiki - I'm doubtful of that
[11:45] <kenthomson> ikonia, so be it than, but i have done my HW
[11:45] <mojo> Li`lEndi1n: far as i know volume label is just for us humans... unless you're talking bout something different.
[11:46] <Li`lEndi1n> mojo: i think i've described it incorrectly- look up the far-right column in `fdisk /dev/hda -l`
[11:46] <ikonia> kenthomas - first google page http://www.kinodv.org/article/view/136/1/8/
[11:46] <Li`lEndi1n> it just says 'system'.
[11:47] <ikonia> what a surprise he left before I could give him the link he said he's searched for and was the first one at the top of google
[11:47] <w0jtas> hi, where can i set kdm to default manager ?
[11:47] <w0jtas> now i have gdm
[11:48] <Li`lEndi1n> ikonia: its a sad state of affairs- some people are happy to let their peers on irc do all the noodle-work.
[11:48] <mojo> Li`lEndi1n: okay... that is the ID for the partition type... basically indicates which file system it is formatted with...  the text part is fdisk being human readable... the 83, 82, etc, are the actual values for type
[11:48] <jack_raymond> w0jtas use #dpkg reconfigure gdm, u will see a list select kdm
[11:48] <w0jtas> oh, thanks :D
[11:48] <ikonia> Li`lEndi1n: I knew he'd not checked - he NEVER checks and its always the first post on google/the forums - thats why I knew he was telling fibbs
[11:49] <Li`lEndi1n> mojo: ok, I'll test and see how it goes. cheerio (for now)
[11:49] <mojo> Li`lEndi1n: good rule of thumb is to give when you get... i try to make a habbit of sticking around on irc after my problem is solved.  good karma is good for all

[11:51] <tehxed> ikonia: It's a laptop.
[11:51] <posingaspopular> ati?1? /me ducks for cover
[11:51] <puffy-san> ikonia: eh, you know, just any package won't work I'm afraid
[11:52] <ikonia> puffy-san: you install which java package you want
[11:52] <tehxed> ikonia: I can't afford to get another laptop =(
[11:52] <Xif> o/` ah, Ubuntu, though art so loveley! o/`
[11:52] <ikonia> tehxed: well, which drivers are you using - the open ones or the ones from ati
[11:52] <ikonia> omeil: sorry - ask again
[11:52] <puffy-san> ikonia: have you got java to work in your browser?
[11:52] <tehxed> ikonia: Do you know how I can get Ubntu 6.10 (Edy Eft) [The AMD 64 DVD ISO installation)
[11:52] <ikonia> puffy-san: yes
[11:52] <tehxed> ikonia: Do you know how I can get Ubntu 6.10 (Edy Eft) [The AMD 64 DVD ISO installation) to get the dri to work?
[11:52] <omeil> ikonia: i gotta go :( i will be back later tho
[11:53] <tehxed> ikonia: fglrx
[11:53] <ikonia> tehxed: I've just asked you which drivers your using
[11:53] <puffy-san> ikonia: what package did you install? Since I think that surtain packages that were available some time ago aint available for my ubuntu
[11:53] <Night_Owl> Well, there's a couple pages that get suggested for configuring, and while the instructions seemed fine for Ubuntu 6.06, 6.10 doesn't seem to have the files in the same place, and in some cases not even the same name.. assuming I'm looking at the right things.
[11:53] <ikonia> tehxed: so your using the 64bit ati ones
[11:53] <ikonia> puffy-san: doesn't matter which java I use - you have to pick which one is for your needs
[11:53] <tehxed> ikonia: I .. wouldn't know. How do I tell if I'm using the correct ones?
[11:53] <ikonia> Night_Owl: can you give me an example of a missing file
[11:53] <ikonia> tehxed: what do you mean you don't know
[11:54] <ikonia> tehxed: you must know which OS version your running, which hardware platform and which drivers YOU insalled
[11:54] <w0jtas> :F i cant run kde, after login it shutdown :(
[11:54] <puffy-san> ikonia: you are a complicated man ikonia...
[11:54] <ikonia> puffy-san: not at all, I'm very simple and straight forward
[11:54] <puffy-san> ikonia: that is exactly what makes you complicated...
[11:54] <tehxed> ikonia: I followed this tutorial to install the drivers http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Edgy_Installation_Guide#Method_2:_Install_the_8.34.8_Driver_Manually
[11:54] <ikonia> puffy-san: I can't be omre black and white
[11:55] <ikonia> tehxed: why did you not use the ubuntu install methods ?
[11:55] <Night_Owl> The one page I look at for configuring says to run sudo /etc/init.d/samba stop to make sure Samba isn't running first.. but I get an error from typing that in.
[11:55] <mojo> tehxed: you should be spending time in your /var/log/Xorg.0.log file to see what is going on as the xserver starts and loads stuff... pay special attention to (WW) warning and (EE) error lines.
[11:55] <ikonia> Night_Owl: whats the error
[11:55] <ikonia> !ati > tehxed
[11:55] <tehxed> ikonia: Because I apparently need these to enable direct rendering which is needed for Beryl (which I'm trying to install
[11:55] <ikonia> thats the official ubuntu way
[11:55] <mojo> tehxed: there should be some messages relating to whether or not DRI is loading, and if not, what it's problem is.
[11:55] <ikonia> tehxed: nope - you just follow the ubuntu guide and you get dri
[11:55] <ikonia> mojo the error is clear that its not loading dri
[11:56] <mojo> ikonia: yeah but there is usually more info in the log file to help figure out why...
[11:56] <Night_Owl> ikonia: Command not found.

[11:56] <Spee_Der> Good morning everyone.
[11:56] <mojo> tehxed: u read my mind!
[11:56] <ikonia> Night_Owl: dpkg -l  grep -i samba please
[11:56] <w0jtas> anybody can help me ?
[11:56] <tehxed> ikonia: What guide?
[11:56] <ikonia> !ati >tehxed
[11:57] <ikonia> the one sent in the pm
[11:57] <Spee_Der> !ask | w0jtas
[11:57] <ubotu> w0jtas: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:57] <puffy-san> ikonia: even though I have java-gcj-compat installed, Firefox doesn't run applets
[11:57] <znejk> hello
[11:57] <znejk> how should the syntax be in ld.so.conf?
[11:57] <ikonia> puffy-san: thats a java compiler
[11:57] <ikonia> puffy-san: not a run time environment
[11:57] <znejk> should there be spaces between the different search paths?
[11:57] <ikonia> znejk: just a list of dir's
[11:57] <znejk> k
[11:57] <Night_Owl> ikonia: ok and what am I looking for?
[11:57] <ikonia> znejk: one on each line
[11:58] <ikonia> Night_Owl: to see what samba packages are installed
[11:58] <puffy-san> ikonia: the package says Java runtime environment with GCJ
[11:58] <ikonia> Night_Owl: or you could just do "apt-get install samba"
[11:58] <ikonia> puffy-san: I suspect thats bad wording
[11:58] <ikonia> puffy-san: but I could be wrong
[11:58] <w0jtas> I need to connect to remote desktop, i have only shell access, what is easier to set ? gdm or kdm ?
[11:58] <mrgreen> hi anyone out there got a wireless network?
[11:58] <ikonia> w0jtas: gdm and kdm are not remote desktops
[11:58] <Night_Owl> ikonia: I tried the install line
[11:58] <ikonia> mrgreen: yes thanks
[11:58] <w0jtas> ikonia: i use x11vnc
[11:59] <mrgreen> cool
[11:59] <tehxed> I'll remember to never buy ATI again =(
[11:59] <ikonia> w0jtas: that doesn't change the fact that gdm and kdm are not desktop environments
[11:59] <w0jtas> but gdm and kdm stops after login try
[11:59] <w0jtas> ikonia: ok, gnome or kde
[11:59] <mrgreen> wirelesx is working on my laptop ,,, but I want to connect to a wifi device
[11:59] <ikonia> w0jtas: because they are not configured for remote x11 by default
[11:59] <mojo> tehxed: you have this line... (EE) fglrx(0): GART is not initialized, disabling DRI
[11:59] <ikonia> mrgreen: ok
[11:59] <w0jtas> ikonia: how can i do it ?
[11:59] <ikonia> mojo incompatible driver versions
[11:59] <mrgreen> only not sure how to connect to wifi device
[11:59] <tehxed> mojo: Yes, yes I do. How do I go about initializing GART?
[11:59] <ikonia> w0jtas: I suggest you search the wiki to get started - then ask specific questions/problems in here
[12:00] <mojo> tehxed: there were steps about disabling the ubuntu-supplied fglrx kernel module as it may be incompatible with the fglrx xorg driver
[12:00] <ikonia> mrgreen: read your wifi manual
[12:00] <mrgreen> lol
[12:00] <mrgreen> ok thanks
[12:00] <ikonia> mrgreen: thats nothing to do with ubuntu
[12:00] <mrgreen> really
[12:00] <Night_Owl> ikonia: It comes back saying the package is unavailable but is referred to by another package.
[12:00] <mojo> tehxed: there are two parts to the fglrx driver... one part is a kernel module that must match the xorg driver part
[12:00] <mojo> tehxed: you probably have a mis-match
[12:00] <w0jtas> ikonia, look i see login screen, when i put login and password, after login i see loading window manager and stop, then i see bash
[12:00] <ikonia> Night_Owl: ok - can you please paste me the exact install command and error message
[12:00] <mrgreen> ikonia: just figured that you need to set up ubuntu to see device?
[12:00] <tehxed> mojo: How do I go about resoling this issue?
[12:00] <mojo> tehxed: looking...
[12:01] <tehxed> mojo: thank you!
[12:01] <ikonia> w0jtas: as I said they are not configured by default for remote connections
[12:01] <ikonia> tehxed: follow the ati guide I sent you
[12:01] <ikonia> !ati >tehxed
[12:01] <tehxed> ikonia: Reading through it now.
[12:01] <mrgreen> !wifi
[12:01] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:01] <Night_Owl> ikonia: I'll have to do that manually.. two different machines here.. I'm on XP box atm and Ubuntu's another box :)
[12:01] <mrgreen> ahhh
[12:01] <tehxed> ikonia: Going through this.
[12:01] <ikonia> tehxed: so how about doing it before asking "how do I" you've not even tried the official method I've sent you
[12:01] <ikonia> Night_Owl: is the ubuntu box not on the net
[12:02] <tehxed> ikonia: Sorry
[12:02] <mrgreen> ikonia: thanks for your help
[12:02] <Night_Owl> ikonia: Not as of yet; I wanted to set up networking first. Setting it up to connect to the Internet, at least in 6.06, was easy.
[12:03] <ikonia> Night_Owl: ok - its just very hard to help with "it doesn't work" style comments, the exact errors are easy to work with
[12:03] <herson> helllo
[12:03] <Benjamin_L> Hi, is there a way to disassemble a lvm array and putting all data on one harddisk?
[12:03] <ikonia> Benjamin_L: move the data off - destroy the lvm volume/volume group
[12:04] <Benjamin_L> ikonia, without putting the data away
[12:04] <ikonia> Benjamin_L: no - if you destroy the volume - the data is gone
[12:04] <yccheok> i sudden type chmod -R 755 in my home directory
[12:04] <Benjamin_L> ikonia, thats bad as I have less then the half used I thought I could destroy it without removing the data
[12:04] <yccheok> now all my files and folder permission mess up, how can i recover :( :(
[12:05] <ikonia> Benjamin_L: how many disks in your volume group
[12:05] <ikonia> yccheok: reset the permissions
[12:05] <Benjamin_L> ikonia, two
[12:05] <yccheok> ikonia, can u please tell me how?
[12:05] <ikonia> Benjamin_L: you could remove one of the disks from the volume group - move the data onto the disk you've just removed then destroy the volume group
[12:05] <ikonia> yccheok: chmod
[12:05] <ikonia> yccheok: although chmod 755 shouldn't have caused you problems in your home dir
[12:06] <Night_Owl> ikonia: Command - sudo apt=get install samba // Error msg - Package samba is not available but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source. However, the foloowing packages replace it: smbclient  samba-common. E:Package samba has no installation candidate.
[12:06] <Benjamin_L> ikonia, do I know whicht disk to remove and is it secure to assume the data i completely on the first?
[12:06] <yccheok> wat i should use then
[12:06] <yccheok> 755?
[12:06] <ikonia> Night_Owl: do you have the correct repo's enabled
[12:06] <ikonia> Benjamin_L: it doesn't matter which one you remove - let lvm handle that
[12:06] <Night_Owl> ikonia: what's a repo? *blinks*
[12:07] <posingaspopular> repository
[12:07] <ikonia> Night_Owl: multiverse, univsere what ever one samba is in
[12:07] <ikonia> universe even
[12:07] <mojo> tehxed: your stuff looks a little different than mine when i last used fglrx (i switched to floss driver for aiglx/beryl)... anyway, does lsmod |grep fgl list fglrx or fglrxdrm ?
[12:07] <Archon> i have ubuntu 2004.10 (warty, i think), is it ok to do a minimal(expert) installation and then upgrade, and then use apt-get to install KDE and all the necessary programs? or has K|Ubuntu's foundations changed too much?
[12:07] <Xif> Night_Owl: a server holding packages that you can install.
[12:07] <berent> i have ubuntu edgy whenever i open volume control i get No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found.
[12:07] <Xif> Archon: given the Kubuntu is far from being flawless even on a clean install, I doubt it.
[12:07] <ikonia> !sound >berent
[12:08] <tehxed> What does gksudo mean?
[12:08] <ikonia> tehxed: it means the gnome sudo program
[12:08] <berent> ikonia ?
[12:08] <ikonia> berent: what
[12:08] <tehxed> mojo: it lists fglrx
[12:08] <Archon> Xif: i should be able to get a good installation of KDE and related applications with an Ubuntu installation, right?
[12:08] <tehxed> mojo: It then has some numbers beside it. =\
[12:08] <berent> ikonia  there is no sound
[12:08] <Night_Owl> ikonia: Haven't a clue. I installed 6.10 yesterday - 6.06 was fine but someone suggested I update it, and that crapped everything out.. so I formatted and am reinstalling 6.10. And Synaptic thinks Samba's installed.
[12:08] <ikonia> tehxed: for the last time - you've used an external method - install the ati drivers via the ubuntu procedure
[12:09] <ikonia> Night_Owl: read the wiki on repo's
[12:09] <iskin> Does anyone know of a way to add frequently used programs and documents to the destop similiar to Windows Start Menu? Maybe a gdesklets solution?
[12:09] <tehxed> ikonia: ehh.. I'm using the link you gave me..!
[12:09] <ikonia> tehxed: you've used an unsupported procedure
[12:09] <tehxed> OH maaan
[12:09] <ikonia> tehxed: so whats the problem
[12:09] <ikonia> if you're using the link I sent - whats the problem
[12:09] <tehxed> ikonia: mojo asked me what that lists, and I told him. =(
[12:09] <tehxed> ikonia: It keeps saying authentication failed everytime I use gksudo
[12:09] <tehxed> ikonia: But if I use sudo, that warning doesn't come up
[12:09] <ikonia> tehxed: try using just sudo
[12:10] <mojo> tehxed: ps... you should be able to comment out lines 84 - 115 in your xorg.conf as you don't seem to have the device, by the way (wacom).
[12:10] <ikonia> tehxed: you may not have gksudo setup
[12:10] <mojo> tehxed: oh, what are the numbers?
[12:10] <tehxed> ikonia: thank you.
[12:10] <mojo> tehxed: nm... it is just the size
[12:10] <tehxed> mojo: fglrx                 481012  0
[12:11] <ikonia> mojo he basiclly messed up his system with some 3rd party "ati howto"
[12:11] <tehxed> ikonia: I thought that was the Ubuntu way =(
[12:11] <mojo> tehxed: okay, you are loading the fglrx kernel module.. now to track down which version and be sure you have it right... one thing you may have needed to do is load the right kernel headers before running the ati installer, but i would think you'd have more serious problems if that was the case
[12:11] <tehxed> ikonia: People from #ati told me to use that. =(
[12:12] <ikonia> tehxed: did the url have "ubuntu.com " in it ?
[12:12] <mojo> ikonia: yeah, i see that... :-/
[12:12] <Xif> Archon: yes.
[12:12] <ompaul> tehxed, recover  using sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:12] <tehxed> I'm sorry guys! I'm so noob =(
[12:12] <Xif> Archon: just install the Kapps, and that's it.
[12:12] <Archon> thank you
[12:12] <Xif> the kubuntu-desktop has some problems.
[12:13] <Xif> yw
[12:13] <yccheok> how can i chmod, where all my directory will have execute permission but file will not have executed permission?????
[12:13] <ikonia> yccheok: 775
[12:13] <tehxed> ompaul: recover what?
[12:13] <ikonia> ooh not
[12:14] <ikonia> yccheok: chmod 740
[12:14] <ompaul> tehxed, "nice values" in xorg.conf
[12:14] <mojo> tehxed: don't worry, the l in linux stands for learning, the x for experience
[12:14] <tehxed> ompaul: I .. don't know what that means =(
[12:15] <ikonia> tehxed: its the command you run to reconfigure your x server
[12:15] <tehxed> ikonia: You mean to set to default?
[12:15] <yccheok> ikonia, i mean, when u do chmod -R 775 *, how can tell it, 775 will be only apply to files?
[12:16] <ikonia> tehxed: no - it asks you questions
[12:16] <mojo> tehxed: ompaul is telling you how to have ubuntu re-configure x for the drivers ubuntu supplies, as opposed to the ones you manually installed...
[12:16] <ikonia> yccheok: it won't - its applied to everything
[12:16] <yccheok> ikonia, i mean, when u do chmod -R ??? *, how can tell it, ??? will be only apply to files (or only directory)?
[12:16] <ikonia> yccheok: its applied to everything
[12:16] <tehxed> ikonia, mojo, ompaul: Should I do the reconfiguring first?
[12:16] <ikonia> tehxed: follow the guide I sent you in the url
[12:16] <tehxed> ikonia, mojo, ompaul: Before I follow the guide provided by ikonia (BinaryDriverHowto/ATI)
[12:16] <yccheok> ikonia, because now all my files is executable (where i dun want), however, when i reset their executable flag, the directory executable flag will be reset as well
[12:17] <tehxed> ikonia: On it.
[12:17] <ikonia> yccheok: so change the permissions
[12:17] <mojo> tehxed: ... in that howto, you did the part where it black-lists the ubuntu fglrx kernel driver?  if you roll back to the ubuntu supplied version, you'd have to un-do that edit to /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common.  If you DIDN'T do that, it could be your problem
[12:17] <yccheok> ikonia, i dun wan change the permissions one by one? too many files and directory.
[12:17] <mojo> tehxed: sry.. been reading off xchat window... ikonia has a different howto for you?
[12:18] <ikonia> yccheok: so a.) man chmod b.) use a better pattern of -R to achieve what you want
[12:18] <ikonia> mojo the official ubuntu howto
[12:18] <ikonia> I sent him the link
[12:18] <tehxed> mojo: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[12:18] <mojo> ikonia: cool beans... yes, he should give that a try
[12:20] <Night_Owl> gah
[12:20] <berent> i have ubuntu edgy whenever i open volume control i get No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found.
[12:20] <berent> no sound
[12:20] <ikonia> !sound >berent
[12:20] <The_Belgain> what decent audio converters (to convert files from various formats to mp3) are there for ubuntu?
[12:20] <berent> yes ikonia
[12:21] <Night_Owl> ikonia: It keeps trying to connect to the Internet but it currently has no Internet connection set up :P
[12:21] <ikonia> Night_Owl: ok
[12:21] <berent> no use i unmuted all alsa settings
[12:21] <Night_Owl> How do I tell it *not* to check the Internet?
[12:21] <berent> still no result
[12:21] <The_Belgain> soundconverter doesn't produce working mp3 files for me.... https://launchpad.net/bugs/87715
[12:21] <mojo> tehxed: in that ubunto howto, where it talks about black listing the ubuntu supplied module, it reads DISABLED_MODULES="somemodule2 fglrx"  ...  just don't type in the word somemodule2, they just mean if there are others listed, leave them and append flgrx to the list.
[12:21] <ikonia> Night_Owl: what point is it checking
[12:22] <Night_Owl> ikonia: When I tell it to reload the package list.
[12:22] <tehxed> mojo: the how to that ikonia provided?
[12:22] <dv_> hey
[12:22] <mojo> tehxed: yes
[12:22] <ikonia> Night_Owl: change/comment out your sources.list
[12:23] <Hobbsee> aaa
[12:23] <tehxed> but mojo, it says "Make sure fglrx is not disabled: gksudo gedit /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common"
[12:23] <dv_> is it possible to create an image of ubuntu? I am considering to set up edgy *once*, with all tweaks and settings,
[12:23] <dv_> and then make an image of this fresh setup
[12:23] <mojo> tehxed: i presume you're gonna follow the 2nd part of the howto, where you get the latest version from ATI website and manually install.  the black-list part is where you tell it NOT to use the fglrx kernel module supplied in the linux-restricted-modules package so that you can use the one the ATI installer compiles instead.
[12:24] <ikonia> dv_: thats not a great idea
[12:24] <ikonia> !nvidia >ikonia
[12:24] <mojo> tehxed: let me see it again...
[12:24] <tehxed> mojo: the second part from the howto that ikonia provided?
[12:24] <dv_> ikonia, why?
[12:24] <dv_> ikonia, the hardware wont change, its a laptop
[12:24] <ikonia> dv_: because that doesn't "install" ubuntu - it just copies data across
[12:24] <Hobbsee> hrm.
[12:25] <dv_> ikonia, which is exactly what I want
[12:25] <znejk> anybody got the flow plugin in banshee to wrk?
[12:25] <ikonia> dv_: but ubuntu won't be "installed"
[12:25] <dv_> ikonia, I want to be able to do a dd once with knoppix, and then everything is on the hd
[12:25] <ikonia> dv_: thats not a great way to install, but feel free to
[12:26] <mojo> tehxed: yeah, the howto ikonia provided has two parts... one is to use the ati propietary drivers that are packaged by ubuntu.  they are not the bleeding-edge latest version.  the 2nd part of the howto is how to manually install the bleeding-edge version off the ati website.  i presume you're gonna follow the 2nd part (but i could be wrong)
[12:26] <dv_> ikonia, "a great way"? what does this mean?
[12:26] <dv_> ikonia, many companies do this
[12:26] <Night_Owl> ikonia: OK got that done.
[12:26] <ikonia> dv_: not a good way
[12:26] <dv_> ikonia, again, why?
[12:26] <ikonia> dv_: if you feel strong about it - do it, don't ask about it
[12:26] <dv_> I dont have to spend hours tweaking, installing, etc.
[12:26] <tehxed> mojo: Oh maaaan, I've been following the first part =(
[12:26] <ikonia> dv_: then do it
[12:26] <tehxed> mojo: I'm at "Make sure you unload the module ati-agp by issuing "sudo rmmod ati-agp" and blacklist it in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist."
[12:27] <dv_> anyway, I actually wanted to ask if it is possible to only partially clone the FS, since the install will be only 1-2 gb big, but the hd is 60 gb
[12:27] <dftpnkezln> hey all, how do i disable sleep states?
[12:27] <ikonia> dv_:  you need to know where the start/end blocks of the install are
[12:27] <The_Belgain> so no suggestions for an mp3 convertor program in edgy?
[12:27] <mojo> tehxed: it's all in what you want.  if you just want the prop. drivers but aren't worried about having the latest version, use the 1st part because it is much easier.  if you want the latest version, use the 2nd part.  the "blacklisting" thing is key because it helps determine which kernel module you wind up with, and it must match versions
[12:28] <tehxed> mojo: ehh.. I want to run beryl...
[12:28] <tehxed> mojo: So which ones should I use?
[12:28] <Night_Owl> ikonia: So now what do I do about installing or setting up Samba?
[12:29] <berent> still no result
[12:29] <ikonia> Night_Owl: you can't - unless you install it from the cd
[12:29] <ompaul> The_Belgain, why not stick your head into #ubuntu-bugs they may be of more use than here

[12:29] <The_Belgain> will do, ta
[12:29] <[WaZ] > The_Belgain: soundconvert?
[12:29] <berent> what might be the problem with alsa
[12:29] <mojo> tehxed: well if you said that in the first place i could have saved you TONS of trouble.  The proprietary drivers do not support the COMPOSITE extension, so you can't use the fun stuff that the AIGLX extension (to the x server) offers with beryl.  You should use the open-source drivers instead.
[12:29] <berent> common guys
[12:29] <ikonia> common ?
[12:30] <tehxed> mojo: I don't know which ones are the open-source one...
[12:30] <rpedro___> tehxed: you have an Xpress200m right? then you need the at least version 8.33.x of fglrx
[12:30] <tehxed> rpedro___: Yes, yes I do.
[12:30] <[WaZ] > berent: what's your problem?
[12:30] <mojo> tehxed: the opensource drivers do 3d acceleration, but it is not as fast a frame rate as the fglrx drivers get.... HOWEVER, they do support the composite extension, so you can run Beryl on them.  That is what I am doing now.. I used to use the fglrx drivers until last month when i installed beryl
[12:31] <Yodude> hey i have a problem with hibernation on ubuntu, everytime i hibernate i get the error"Could not activate device 00:00a", and after that i just get a black screen where i cannpot even get to a terminal or restart X
[12:31] <berent> there is no sound [WaZ] 
[12:31] <mojo> tehxed: you want to install the ubuntu package... (lemme check name...)...
[12:31] <amar> i have installed all the codecs needed to play avi files..... but whenever i try to open avi files with totem movie player, it shows some other application is using so close it??
[12:31] <[WaZ] > berent: did you try unmuting PCM?
[12:31] <amar> wat shld i do now??
[12:31] <berent> yes [WaZ] 
[12:31] <rpedro> mojo: but the opensource drivres don't have 3d support for an Xpress200m at all due to a bug
[12:31] <berent> all are unmuted in alsamixer
[12:31] <Yodude> so can anybody here help me please?
[12:31] <dftpnkezln> could someone tell me what i need to do now - this is what im trying to do (and why) - "if you want your sensors back, you'll need to disable suspend support for now ("Sleep States" in the ACPI menu.)"
[12:31] <berent> alsctl store 0 also done
[12:31] <mojo> rpedro: does tehxed have that model card?
[12:32] <rpedro> yes
[12:32] <[WaZ] > strange ;-)
[12:32] <ompaul> centrinel, don't do that or you will be banned
[12:32] <tehxed> mojo: Before we continue, I just want to make sure of something here... Which method should I follow from the howto that ikonia povided? "Install from Ubuntu repositores" or "Install from ati.com" ?
[12:32] <mojo> rpedro, tehxed - i was unaware of that bug
[12:32] <puffy-san> anyone ever tried to install java ME packages on ubuntu?
[12:32] <[WaZ] > berent: Im afraid i can't help, apart from the usual quick fixes
[12:32] <rpedro> mojo: it's always been a very buggy card even with fglrx only the latest versions have fixed direct rendering on it
[12:32] <berent> dont be afraid [WaZ]  its ok
[12:33] <berent> anybody else
[12:33] <tehxed> mojo: I was talking to rpedro yesterday about this issue... he suggested the link I originally gave you.
[12:33] <Night_Owl> ikonia: So how do I reinstall it when Synaptic thinks it's installed?
[12:33] <kelvin> .
[12:33] <kelvin> .......
[12:33] <kelvin> .....
[12:33] <Yodude> help please
[12:33] <kelvin> shenme ?
[12:34] <berent> Night_Owl open synaptic right click on package and choose to reinstall
[12:34] <ikonia> Night_Owl: I'm not sure it thinks its installed, do a dpkg -l | grep -i samba and see if it is installed
[12:34] <mojo> tehxed: like i said, it depends on what result you want.  the ubuntu supplied ati-proprietary drivers will give you version that is not the latest, but it is ati fglrx.  the 2nd part of the ikonia howto will give have you download the latest and greatest ati fglrx drivers and comiple/install them.  the opensource driver i guess won't work for you i am afraid...
[12:34] <ikonia> mojo exactly
[12:34] <Night_Owl> berent: Only Mark for Removal, Mark for Complete Removal, and Properties aren't greyed out.
[12:35] <mojo> tehxed: there are two ways to get berl to run... one is using the AIGLX extensions to the X.Org X Server, but you need Composite working for that... so you are S.O.L. (sadly outta luck) on that route.
[12:35] <[WaZ] > tehxed: stick to the ubuntu driver, with the manual compile you'll have to recompile every time you upgrade your linux kernel
[12:35] <amar> i have installed all the codecs needed to play avi files..... but whenever i try to open avi files with totem movie player, it shows some other application is using so close it??
[12:35] <tehxed> mojo: From ati website, which linux driver do I select? linux x86 or linux x86_64? (I have Ubuntu Edgy Eft 6.10 (Used the AMD64 DVD ISO installation)...
[12:35] <berent> then remove it and then install again
[12:36] <mojo> tehxed: there is another way, which is to use the XGL x-server which would act as a middle-man x-server, riding on top of the X.org xserver.  I think you can get that method to work, but am not 100% sure
[12:36] <jrib> amar: some other application is using *what*?
[12:36] <[WaZ] > Night_Owl: have you tried a dpkg-reconfigure?

[12:37] <amar> jrib: the video output is in use by another application
[12:37] <mojo> tehxed: yeah, i have Athlon 64 chip too but i installed the 32bit version of ubuntu, since it (the amd chip) will run either 32 or 64 bit code... the reason i chose that is because some things (like flash) and, originally, ati proprietery drivers, were only available in 32bit.
[12:37] <Shironeko> Hi!
[12:37] <amar> jrib: plz close other application
[12:38] <Shironeko> What's  the command/program I need to rename multiple files at once?
[12:38] <tehxed> mojo: So.. having the 64 bit installation on this machine, should I use the 64 bit drivers as well (from ati.com) ?
[12:38] <amar> jrib: or select other video output in mulitimedia system selector
[12:38] <jrib> amar: what version of ubuntu
[12:38] <mojo> tehxed: but if you installed the amd64 version of ubuntu, then that is the one to use

[12:40] <ikonia> Night_Owl: no - thats a different version
[12:40] <jrib> amar: can you open a Terminal and try this command:  'gstreamer-properties'.  What is selected for your video output?
[12:40] <ikonia> use the 6.10 cd

[12:40] <[WaZ] > tehxed: yup
[12:40] <amar> jrib: i will try
[12:40] <mojo> tehxed: the first one, which lists the xorg 7.1 server
[12:41] <Night_Owl> ikonia: It still only shows up with samba-common for the grep.
[12:41] <tehxed> mojo: I'm sure I've done all this, but I guess.. doing it again won't hurt.
[12:41] <berent> ompaul: whats capture
[12:41] <[WaZ] > tehxed: others are for older versions of Xorg or for Xfree86
[12:41] <ikonia> Night_Owl: because you've not installed anything new

[12:46] <lorenz> hi guys
[12:46] <Night_Owl> [WaZ] : Right.
[12:46] <ikonia> Night_Owl: I've told you a few times now - you don't have samba installed/running
[12:47] <lorenz> I have a problem with my wireless, can you help?
[12:47] <tehxed> mojo: I don't have the tilt wheel, the MX500 is old... but still, I love this mouse. Probably the best mouse I've ever hard.
[12:47] <Night_Owl> ikonia: I know. And Synaptic thinks otherwise and I don't know how to get it to install.
[12:47] <amar> jrib: thank u very much, its working fine
[12:47] <mojo> tehxed: but the mouse uses "cruise control" which makes the cruse buttons send multiple wh. up or down events... there is a program (or three) to disable that, and also to set the resolution of the mouse
[12:47] <ikonia> Night_Owl: synaptic doesn't think otherwise
[12:47] <ikonia> Night_Owl: you have samba common installed - not samba
[12:47] <jrib> amar: ok, but you probably want to use xv.  That helps us troubleshoot, but I'm still looking for a reason as to why your xv isn't working
[12:47] <ompaul> berent, I will have the bot send you some stuff - including what you need to make gstreamer work
[12:47] <ikonia> Night_Owl: I've explained you need to install the samba package
[12:47] <isildur> Which package contains the gnome-settings-daemon ?
[12:47] <[WaZ] > Night_Owl: you should install samba package
[12:47] <[WaZ] > as ikonia says
[12:47] <ikonia> aobut 10 times
[12:47] <ikonia> about
[12:48] <Night_Owl> ikonia: So do I have to DL it first then and put it on a CD?

[12:48] <lorenz> guys, I need help with my wireless - when you got time ?
[12:48] <ikonia> Night_Owl:  NO ! I've told you like 10 times now, either download it - you can't you've got no internet connection - or install it form the edgy cd if its on it
[12:48] <lorenz> help, please...
[12:48] <amar> jrib: i have downloaded two different torrents frm linuxtracker.org but both of them strucks at gparted window
[12:49] <mojo> tehxed: thing about the ati prop. driver is that you will not, directly, be able to use the beryl and/or compiz window managers direclty with X.org using those drivers.
[12:49] <ompaul> berent, they are the standard docs that get 99.9999999% of people out of audio trouble, for the rest I suggest take a break and come back to machine
[12:49] <jrib> amar: have you read the page ubotu linked you to?
[12:49] <lorenz> I need help with a wireless issue, I haven't been able to solve yet with any help in the forum
[12:49] <goban> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KyLqUf4cdwc
[12:49] <tehxed> mojo: I don't know what the compiz window managers mean...
[12:49] <Night_Owl> ikonia: if it's on the CD I don't know how to find it 'manually' and Synaptic doesn't list any other Samba-related packages on the CD.
[12:49] <ompaul> !ubotu | mahHa
[12:49] <amar> jrib: chking.....
[12:49] <ubotu> mahHa: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[12:49] <tehxed> mojo: Are you telling me that Beryl will not work if I'm using these ati drivers?
[12:50] <ikonia> Night_Owl: you need to change your sources to be the cdrom
[12:50] <mojo> tehxed: you will need to install XGL, which is an X server implemented in OpenGL.  That server will support everything beryl and/or compiz needs.  It, in turn, will render it's output to the GL direct rendering interface of the X.Org server.  So you need to install it as an extra "layer" in there, basically
[12:50] <ompaul> !wireless > lorenz
[12:50] <Night_Owl> ikonia: sources.list?
[12:50] <lorenz> ompaul!
[12:50] <ikonia> Night_Owl: yup
[12:50] <lorenz> can you help?
[12:50] <tehxed> mojo: and this is ..not listed in the howto ikonia provided, is it?
[12:50] <Night_Owl> ikonia: What do I set it to? /media/cdrom?
[12:51] <mojo> tehxed: right.  beryl is a compositing window manager and needs the composite extension active in the x-server it runs on
[12:51] <ikonia> Night_Owl: sorry, I'm losing patience now, I've told you this earlier
[12:51] <amar> jrib: today i will try dis method, once again thanx... :)
[12:51] <ikonia> Night_Owl: I suggest you find someone else to walk you through this
[12:51] <[WaZ] > tehxed: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_Xgl.2FBeryl_.28ATI.29
[12:51] <Night_Owl> ikonia: Sorry about this ikonia.. I know you're feeling like a broken record.
[12:51] <mojo> tehxed: the howto is not about beryl, per se.  it is about installing the proprietary ati drivers for whatever reasons you have.  for instance, to support accelerated 3d on your particular card, you NEED the fglrx driver.
[12:51] <tehxed> mojo: So the part where it says "Disabled" right now, will have to be turned to "Enabled" ?
[12:51] <jrib> amar: np, what video driver do you use?
[12:51] <Lice> how do i change time?
[12:51] <ompaul> lorenz, the combined wisdom of those who use wireless are in those pages - and for good measure I don't use wireless
[12:51] <ikonia> Night_Owl: I don't have the time/patience to help someone 3 or 4 times with the same issue because they don't listen
[12:52] <ikonia> sorry
[12:52] <mojo> tehxed: NO... you leave that disabled.  The X.Org server must be told to disable COMPOSITE when using the ATI driver.
[12:52] <lorenz> I don't get any response on those pages

[12:52] <Lice> its a server version jrib
[12:52] <Raskall> Is NetworkManager broken in feisty these days?
[12:53] <jrib> Lice: use the 'date' command
[12:53] <lorenz> I have another problem too, how can I get the default panel back?
[12:53] <mojo> teh... it is like this... composite extension allows a program to render it's window to an off-screen buffer.  the compositing window manager (be it beryl or whatever) then assembles those into the on-screen rendering, doing the layering (alpha blend transparency, etc).
[12:54] <tehxed> mojo: you mean the cube effects?
[12:54] <mojo> tehxed: beryl needs the composite extension, but the fglrx driver won't support it... but there is a way around this
[12:54] <lorenz> does anyone know that? I'd love to get my default panel back
[12:54] <berent> whats edgy kernel ompaul
[12:54] <tehxed> mojo: so I will be bugging you about this after I install these drivers?
[12:54] <berent> is it
[12:54] <berent> 2.6.15-27-386
[12:54] <mojo> tehxed: the cube effects need TWO things.. 1) composite, so that the 2d window is fully drawn in memory somewhere, and DRI, so that Beryl can draw it to a 3d space
[12:55] <mojo> tehxed: the fglrx driver is gonna give you the DRI (direct rendering) for 3D that you need.
[12:55] <ompaul> !kernel
[12:55] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[12:55] <ompaul> !linux-image edgy
[12:55] <tehxed> mojo: but for beryl to work, I have to use that way around something you're talking about?
[12:56] <GazzaF> can anybody assist me in getting ubuntu to connect to the net?
[12:56] <[WaZ] > tehxed: don't worry, beryl works
[12:56] <berent> ompaul is edgy =  2.6.15-27-386
[12:56] <ikonia> tehxed: learn the basics before being bothered by beryl
[12:56] <tehxed> [WaZ] : That's what THEY ALL SAY
[12:56] <jrib> amar: k, well I don't really know why you can't use xv.  But I would check that the actual Xorg video driver that you are using is the best one for your video card.  Upgrading may help too, so you can see if it gets fixed on its own once you upgrade
[12:56] <mojo> tehxed: right... the sane thing would be for fglrx to support composite, so that the x.org server could supply that feature to beryl directly
[12:56] <tehxed> ikonia: People tell me that... but Beryl's so pretty
[12:56] <[WaZ] > tehxed: Im using it right now with fglrx drivers
[12:56] <tehxed> [WaZ] : I think it's a matter of me having a shitty video card.
[12:56] <ikonia> tehxed: but your skills are weak
[12:56] <ikonia> tehxed: language !
[12:57] <[WaZ] > tehxed: what video card?
[12:57] <ikonia> I don't want/need to see bad language
[12:57] <mojo> tehxed: but because ati loves us so much (wipe up puddle of dripping sarcasm), we get to be real fancy and run TWO x servers to get what we want.
[12:57] <tehxed> ikonia: sorry
[12:57] <tehxed> [WaZ] : ATI Radeon Xpress 200M
[12:57] <amar> jrib: i will upgrade....... thanx
[12:57] <mojo> XGL is an x server that supports composite, and it does not render to a video driver as it
[12:57] <[WaZ] > tehxed: I have worse I believe
[12:57] <mojo> XGL is an x server that supports composite, and it does not render to a video driver as it's "output"
[12:57] <tehxed> mojo: That's ATI's way of showing us love. It's telling us it loves us
[12:58] <mojo> tehxed: tough love?  har dee har har
[12:58] <Night_Owl> Sorry ikonia.. this thing is frustrating me too. I've been trying to get this to work for two days now - after having had it behaving properly on 6.06! I know you've been repeating yourself a lot beacuse of me, and I apologize for that. I guess part of the problem is just frustration from my end. My apologies.
[12:58] <tehxed> [WaZ] : A 9600 is far superior than a X200
[12:58] <[WaZ] > tehxed: ill take your word for it
[12:58] <ompaul> berent, linux-386: Complete Linux kernel on 386.. In component restricted, is optional. Version 2.6.17.11 (edgy), package size 23 kB, installed size 52 kB
[12:58] <ikonia> Night_Owl: don't worry about it - bu maybe the reason you've had problems for 2 days is because you're not listening
[12:58] <GazzaF> how do i connect to the internet in ubuntu?
[12:59] <berent> then what i am having now is 2.6.15-27-386 what is it then - ompaul
[12:59] <posingaspopular> GazzaF: try sudo ppoeconf
[12:59] <mojo> tehxed: anyway, the XGL x-server has the composite feature beryl wants, and it outputs OpenGL
[12:59] <GazzaF> posingaspopular: okay
[12:59] <Night_Owl> ikonia, I've listened to everything that was said, and I had the feeling from the beginning it wasn't installed, but it feels like the computer thinks otherwise.
[12:59] <tehxed> mojo: And I have to install XGL after I'm done doing this howto?
[01:00] <Night_Owl> Or I'm just really dense right now :P
[01:00] <aalhamad> !pasebin
[01:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pasebin - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:00] <mojo> tehxed: the X.Org server provides support to OpenGL apps through either MESA (software 3d) or DRI (hardware 3d).  Get it?
[01:00] <aalhamad> !pastebin
[01:00] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[01:00] <GazzaF> posingaspopular: sudo: ppoeconf: command not found
[01:00] <ikonia> Night_Owl: and yet you STILL don't listen. its NOT installed
[01:00] <ompaul> berent,  2.6.17.11 so do>> sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade <<
[01:00] <tehxed> tehxed: So.. do ..I need to install this XGL or no?
[01:00] <posingaspopular> GazzaF: thats because im an idiot
[01:01] <posingaspopular> its pppoeconf
[01:01] <posingaspopular> three 'p's
[01:01] <GazzaF> heh, okay
[01:01] <tehxed> mojo: You keep loosing me. I sort of start to catch on and BAM..I'm gone.
[01:01] <GazzaF> oooh
[01:01] <mojo> You run Beryl as a window manager on XGL, which handles compositing and all, and it in turn passes it's output down to X.Org, compositing already taken care of.  What DRI provides in OpenGL, XGL will pass-thu (for speed). What DRI does NOT provide, XGL will manage with the MESA libraries.
[01:01] <GazzaF> promising :)
[01:01] <berent> there is nothing shown here to upgrade ompaul
[01:01] <jo_> how can i change vga res for a 1280x800 under grub? i need vga=??? number.. where can i look it up? forgot the doc
[01:02] <ompaul> berent, so are you using dapper or Ubuntu?
[01:02] <mojo> tehxed: oh, well...  it is a hack-ish way to get what you want.  think of a 3d game that needs OpenGL.  That will run on X.Org server slowly without DRI, or quickly with DRI.
[01:03] <tehxed> mojo: I didn't know Ubuntu supported games...
[01:03] <mojo> beryl needs more than just OpenGL... it also needs COMPOSITE, so it can't use X.Org with the ATI driver
[01:03] <tehxed> mojo: Only OpenGL games though, right?
[01:03] <GazzaF> posingaspopular: NOT CONNECTED: scanned two interfaces, check cables (cables are fine), another pppoe process may be running
[01:03] <berent> ompaul i upgraded it already to edgy dist-upgrade and now all packs in synaptic shows i have edgy
[01:03] <berent> 6.1
[01:03] <Yodude> hey can someone help me a bit? i am having a problem hibernating i always get the error "could not activate device 00:00a" and then i get a black screen
[01:03] <mojo> tehxed: yeah, they are a rare breed... but Unreal Tournament, Quake, and others do have native linux versions
[01:03] <posingaspopular> GazzaF: i forget the command... kill pppoeconf
[01:04] <posingaspopular> .... no thats not it
[01:04] <gordonjcp> mojo: Enemy Territory
[01:04] <tehxed> tehxed: If I can get Warcraft 3/The Frozen Throne working on Ubuntu... my god.. consider Windows gone from my desktop
[01:04] <[WaZ] > Yodude: Ati?
[01:04] <ompaul> berent, so had you installed stuff from outside resources i,e, outside the ubuntu repos before you did your upgrade
[01:05] <Yodude> no nvidia
[01:05] <[WaZ] > Yodude: can't help sorry
[01:05] <posingaspopular> "Now you can make a DSL connection with 'pon dsl-provider' and terminate it with 'poff'
[01:05] <posingaspopular> try poff
[01:05] <berent> no i had updated from breezy to dapper  and then dapper to edgy.i have breezy cd with me
[01:05] <tehxed> mojo: When I do "sudo aticonfig --initial", it says "Found fglrx primary device section  Nothing to do, terminating."   What does that mean?!
[01:05] <mojo> tehxed: XGL is an X server, just like X.Org is.  think of XGL as that 3d game, but rather than being a game, it is an x server.  It is redundant to do this, but it works.  It is an x server that is not dependent on built-in drivers for your video card.  it simply renders to OpenGL.
[01:06] <Yodude> hey can someone help me a bit? i am having a problem hibernating i always get the error "could not activate device 00:00a" and then i get a black screen
[01:06] <GazzaF> posingaspopular: /sr/bin/poff: No pppd is running. None stopped
[01:06] <sire1> If I want that fetchmail download my emails even when I doesn't logged in, I need to put my connection info to the /etc/fetchmailrc or there is a way to do the same with ~/.fetchmailrc ?
[01:07] <mojo> tehxed: okay, that is becaue your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file is already configured for ati fglrx driver.  It would have changed it from "ati" or "radeon" (opensource ones) to "fglrx" (closed source ones)
[01:07] <berent> no i had updated from breezy to dapper  and then dapper to edgy.i have breezy cd with me ompaul
[01:07] <compilerwriter> can anyone help me set up rlogin?
[01:07] <ompaul> berent, you did a 5.10 -> 6.06 -> 6.10 upgrade
[01:07] <tehxed> mojo: So.. I can continue onto the next step "sudo aticonfig --overlay-type=Xv" ?
[01:07] <piranesi> hi, I don't understand why after the jdk6 installation (from the sun .bin file) and after the update-alternatives, I only have javac in the usr/bin and not the java executable! I have to take it from another dir or I get "command not found"... is it normal???
[01:07] <lesshaste> how do I configure automatic updates?  it tells me that I can check for updates automatically in software sources in the internet updates tab. I can't see any such tab in xubuntu
[01:07] <_eddie_> GazzaF: i should know how to fix this but i cant remember
[01:07] <Yodude> hey can someone help me a bit? i am having a problem hibernating i always get the error "could not activate device 00:00a" and then i get a black screen
[01:07] <mojo> tehxed: don't worry that this XGL stuff is complicated... trust me, it took me more than a minute to figure it out.  and i am not 100% sure i have it all straight either.
[01:07] <_eddie_> its been eons since Ive had to do pppoeconf
[01:08] <[WaZ] > mojo: are the 'radeon' drivers efficient enough to play smoothly with beryl?
[01:08] <mojo> tehxed: yes
[01:08] <GazzaF> ah :(
[01:08] <berent> yes ompaul but not continuously i am using this since 2 years
[01:08] <mojo> [WaZ] : yeah, i use them on my AGP ATI Radeon 9800 Pro just fine
[01:08] <ompaul> berent, well to be honest I would download a cd and do a fresh install just in case something broke
[01:09] <piranesi> anyone who has installed jdk 6 from the bin file?
[01:09] <yomm> Waz : Im running beryl smoothly on a 9200
[01:09] <tehxed> mojo: Warning: Option 'VideoOverlay' doesn't affect running session.    Warning: Option 'OpenGLOverlay' doesn't affect running session.    Using /etc/X11/xorg.conf     Saved back-up to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.fglrx-2
[01:09] <ompaul> berent, and it looks like something did
[01:09] <[WaZ] > mojo: I should reenable composite and AIGLX right?
[01:09] <compilerwriter> !ip
[01:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ip - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:09] <GazzaF> So, what can i do to connect?
[01:09] <Yodude> hey can someone help me a bit? i am having a problem hibernating i always get the error "could not activate device 00:00a" and then i get a black screen
[01:09] <tehxed> mojo: Those warnings aren't necessarily bad,r ight?
[01:09] <flasher1000> Hi there, I just installed ubuntu 6.10 dual boot with xp
[01:09] <flasher1000> and my network isnt working under ubuntu
[01:10] <flasher1000> anyone got any suggestions?
[01:10] <GazzaF> flasher1000: join the club :)
[01:10] <[WaZ] > tehxed: thats normal
[01:10] <_eddie_> im not exactly sure
[01:10] <tehxed> wicked!
[01:10] <tehxed> brb
[01:10] <tehxed> restart
[01:10] <berent> ompaul but how do i download and install still retain all my things
[01:10] <tehxed> wait
[01:10] <_eddie_> maybe one of these other people can help
[01:10] <tehxed> nevermind
[01:10] <tehxed> restart time!
[01:10] <[WaZ] > tehxed: good luck
[01:10] <ompaul> berent, you can back up what you have
[01:10] <mojo> tehxed: you would think it should be like this...   Beryl --> X.Org Server --> Video Card  but it is broken with fglrx
[01:11] <mojo> tehxed: so what we do is this:  Beryl --> XGL --> X.Org --> Card
[01:11] <GazzaF> _eddie_: do i need ppp (something or other) to connect to the net?
[01:11] <berent> it has GB's of data
[01:11] <berent> it has GB's of data ompaul
[01:11] <_eddie_> GazzaF: what I do is just hit the firefox logo and it sets up automatically
[01:12] <_eddie_> pppoeconf is to intentionally create a new connection
[01:12] <GazzaF> i wish my box would do that too
[01:12] <berent> and i dont have a cd writer
[01:12] <berent> and i dont have a cd writer ompaul
[01:12] <ompaul> berent, so you know somone with gigs of space
[01:12] <lesshaste> is there a plf repository for edgy?
[01:12] <Yodude> hey can someone help me a bit? i am having a problem hibernating i always get the error "could not activate device 00:00a" and then i get a black screen
[01:12] <GazzaF> i do have a router that i am pinging successfully using network tools
[01:12] <_eddie_> my old router made me do pppoconf everysingle time, now i just hit Fx
[01:12] <mojo> lesshaste: i believe so
[01:12] <[WaZ] > berent: if it doesn't work, try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:13] <_eddie_> maybe you need a different port?
[01:13] <lesshaste> mojo: how do I find it? google isn't helping
[01:13] <zch> can someone help me installing external us robotics modem on kubuntu, im total newbie
[01:13] <GazzaF> maybe
[01:13] <[WaZ] > berent: and install bitchx so you can come here from console
[01:13] <GazzaF> im not sure though
[01:13] <_eddie_> not too sure how all that stuff works
[01:13] <_eddie_> zch: #kubuntu would be a good place to start
[01:13] <berent> [Waz]  for what are u telling this
[01:13] <tripppy> whats a good webcam app for uploading pix via FTP, HTTP etc?
[01:13] <[WaZ] > berent: just in case
[01:14] <zch> i dont beleive that installation is any different
[01:14] <zch> but ok :D
[01:14] <mojo> lesshaste: check http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=331795

[01:14] <Night_Owl> Well I managed to get Samba onto my box, I just have to figure out how to install it now
[01:15] <berent> [Waz]  can u tell me what all should i have in sources.list
[01:15] <[WaZ] > berent: I confused you with someone else
[01:15] <ikonia> Night_Owl: how did you get samba on to your box wihtout installing it
[01:15] <lesshaste> mojo: thx
[01:15] <berent> [Waz]  its ok
[01:15] <ompaul> berent, go to friends with CD and sftp data from your machine to theirs -- rebuild with seperate /home and then start again
[01:15] <berent> ompaul i think there is some problem with apt sources.list
[01:16] <mojo> lesshaste: np... read thru the whole thing, btw, to understand.
[01:16] <Night_Owl> Grabbed another computer and used the Internet to grab the .gz
[01:16] <lesshaste> mojo: k
[01:16] <ompaul> berent, so then put them in http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[01:16] <ikonia> Night_Owl: do NOT compile from source
[01:16] <ikonia> Night_Owl: there is an ubuntu package
[01:16] <berent> it has only one line : deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy main ompaul
[01:16] <ikonia> use it - so other software can interface with samba ok
[01:16] <mojo> lesshaste: basically plf quit ubuntu, medibuntu stepped up
[01:16] <lesshaste> mojo: aha!
[01:17] <[WaZ] > berent: on a side note, you should backup your data, you never know ;-)
[01:17] <ompaul> berent, well then there isonly one thing you can do >> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade<< and reboot
[01:17] <berent> ompaul i have done it already
[01:18] <ompaul> berent, ehh do it again
[01:18] <berent> ompaul i have done it many times ok even now
[01:18] <ompaul> berent, before you do it sudo apt-get update first
[01:18] <ikonia> Night_Owl: do you understand what I'm saying ?
[01:18] <berent> ompaul done that also
[01:19] <berent> the problem is when i open synaptic repositories i dont find any other repositories at all ompaul
[01:19] <ompaul> berent, then you are stuck - get yourself a freind with space and if they have windows then do sftp via putty
[01:19] <Night_Owl> Look for the Ubuntu version of Samba
[01:19] <ikonia> Night_Owl: get the ubuntu samba package - either off the cd of from the internet and install it
[01:20] <ikonia> not a tar.gz
[01:20] <berent> ompaul but i have a file called sources.list.distUpgrade where all repos are stored
[01:20] <ikonia> Night_Owl: the urls for the ubuntu repo's are in your sources.list
[01:20] <berent> ompaul i dont know why they arent reflected
[01:20] <Night_Owl> ikonia: Well for whatever reason I can't find it on the CD so I'm looking on the Net.
[01:20] <ompaul> !sources.list > berent
[01:20] <Night_Owl> kk
[01:20] <lesshaste> general question.. I have two computers attached to the same adsl access point.. can I mount the files on one of them without going via the outside world?
[01:20] <ompaul> berent, there is nothing more I can suggest for you - you have gone beyond my abilty to provide pointers
[01:20] <ikonia> Night_Owl: have you thought about trying to connect your ubuntu machine to the internet - this is so much easier if its on the net
[01:21] <[WaZ] > lesshaste: yes
[01:21] <berent> ompaul ok
[01:21] <Yodude> hey can someone help me a bit? i am having a problem hibernating i always get the error "could not activate device 00:00a" and then i get a black screen

[01:21] <lesshaste> [WaZ] : where do you ssh to?
[01:21] <GazzaF> what is the access-point?
[01:21] <lesshaste> [WaZ] : there is only one external ip address
[01:21] <GazzaF> to connect to the internet that is
[01:21] <[WaZ] > lesshaste: Places> Connect to Server, then use your network IP adress
[01:21] <meiyaaiwo> ?
[01:22] <lesshaste> GazzaF: netgear dg834gt
[01:22] <ompaul> compilerwriter, people dont use rlogin that much any more use ssh install openssh-server
[01:22] <alecjw> hi. how can i convert a file from unix line breaks to windows ones?
[01:22] <[WaZ] > lesshaste: that is if both linux run linux, otherwise you should use samba
[01:22] <lesshaste> [WaZ] : is that a gnome menu you are referring to?
[01:22] <lesshaste> [WaZ] : both running linux
[01:22] <[WaZ] > lesshaste: yes
[01:22] <GazzaF> i have a zydas stick, what would mine be?

[01:25] <[WaZ] > !wireless >GazzaF
[01:25] <jrib> Bogaurd: alsamixer
[01:25] <lesshaste> GazzaF: yes.. the gnome network manager.. it's the easiest way if it works
[01:25] <daft> does anyone know what "Library directory /usr/local/lib is not in /etc/ld.so.conf  Add it and run /sbin/ldconfig for the userspace tools to work" is telling me to do?
[01:25] <daft> how do i 'add' it?
[01:26] <GazzaF> i have two things, networking and network tools
[01:26] <Yodude> hey can someone help me a bit? i am having a problem hibernating i always get the error "could not activate device 00:00a" and then i get a black screen
[01:26] <Bogaurd> jrib: I need something like a single command... like 'volume +1'
[01:26] <jrib> Bogaurd: man alsactl
[01:26] <Night_Owl> ikonia, I'm looking for a .deb?
[01:27] <jrib> Bogaurd: erm wrong command, amixer is what you want
[01:27] <Bogaurd> jrib: I tried doing amixer sset Master +1
[01:27] <[WaZ] > lesshaste: can't seem to find a graphical interface for that, but you can always use samba...
[01:27] <Bogaurd> but it just goes silent :S
[01:28] <ikonia> Night_Owl: yes, just be aware it may have more dependencies that you'll need to find and nstall
[01:28] <ikonia> Night_Owl: hence why I'm suggesting you may want to get this box connected to the net - or download the whole repo on to a dvd
[01:28] <Bogaurd> FUCK
[01:28] <Bogaurd> that wokred
[01:28] <ikonia> lagnauge
[01:28] <ikonia> language
[01:28] <ikonia> that was totally uncalled for
[01:28] <Bogaurd> it went really loud and woke up half the house

[01:29] <ompaul> including this one
[01:29] <[WaZ] > ikonia: can't he set up a connection sharing by connecting his linux box to his windows one?
[01:29] <ikonia> [WaZ] : he can, thats why I'm suggesting it

[01:35] <Night_Owl> ikonia, I'm searching at the link that was in the sources file. This was listed under 'pool/main/s/samba'; no directory was listed in sources.list for Edgy, and any I saw on the site labelled for Edgy, the files were too small to be Samba - unless it was the full CD download of it.

[01:41] <Night_Owl> ikonia, I looked in the ca version of that and Samba wasn't listed unless I went to a different directory.
[01:41] <ikonia> Night_Owl: won't keep you a minute
[01:41] <GoopyMonkey> ikonia: is there any way I can save the software so that i can use it next time I boot with livecd?
[01:41] <[WaZ] > GazzaF: sorry, i can't help you with that... Never even tried installing a usb Wifi dongle

[01:42] <GazzaF> [WaZ] : sounds fun :D

[01:42] <GazzaF> ah :)
[01:42] <GoopyMonkey> GazzaF: its sort of like a memory stick
[01:42] <GazzaF> okay
[01:42] <GoopyMonkey> oops, too late
[01:43] <ikonia> Night_Owl: your URL is fine - you just need to make sure you get the right version (3.X.X) for 6.10
[01:43] <GazzaF> GoopyMonkey: yes! which i have
[01:43] <ikonia> Night_Owl: I've not got 6.10 at hand so I can't check for you
[01:43] <[WaZ] > GazzaF: i know its used for bluetooth tsicks
[01:43] <GazzaF> only, how do i get it to connect to my router and then, the internet?
[01:43] <kroiz> GoopyMonkey you could mount your hard disk and save files there
[01:43] <lesshaste> GazzaF: did you fix it?
[01:43] <lesshaste> [WaZ] : did you find where it was?
[01:43] <Night_Owl> ikonia, fair enough. I'll try the most recent one that I URLed you to earlier and see if that does the trick.
[01:43] <[WaZ] > GazzaF: with a wire?
[01:43] <GazzaF> not as of yet
[01:43] <[WaZ] > lesshaste: i haven't...
[01:43] <kairu0> would someone recommend a gnome music player/library? i'm using Listen and lookin for something else
[01:44] <kroiz> your could use free to save a image of the program while it is running
[01:44] <lesshaste> [WaZ] : ok
[01:44] <Cribbzter> Anyone that can help me getting my Wireless to work?
[01:44] <jrib> kairu0: I like rhythmbox
[01:44] <[WaZ] > lesshaste: but you can do it manually
[01:44] <lesshaste> [WaZ] : ok.. how?
[01:44] <GoopyMonkey> kroiz: when I try to access my fard disk, it says "<insert harddisk name here> is not unmountable. pmount failed."
[01:44] <ikonia> Night_Owl: the most recent ones may be fesity - therefore too new

[01:45] <[WaZ] > lesshaste: it will show as a normal folder in your file manager
[01:45] <Night_Owl> so maybe try 3.0.022 instead of 024?
[01:46] <lesshaste> [WaZ] : sorry.. I mean what ip address do I use?
[01:46] <[WaZ] > lesshaste: alternatively, you could use Samba

[01:48] <ernz> Hi everyone. Perhaps someone could throw some ideas my way. I have recently seen Vista sidebar, pretty cool. Before this I saw linux was already playing with this sort of idea with something called GDesklets, but this is a total resource hog and a lot of stuff seems not to work. Can anyone suggest a better app for desktop utils and eye candy?
[01:48] <lesshaste> hmm.. google earth in medibuntu is completely screwed :)
[01:48] <[WaZ] > lesshaste: ifconfig |grep inet
[01:48] <lesshaste> it waits for you to press ok.. which you can't in synaptic :)
[01:48] <ikonia> lesshaste: good job this isn't mediabutu
[01:48] <lesshaste> ikonia: what isn't?
[01:48] <ikonia> the support in this channel
[01:48] <Cribbzter> anyone know anything about wireless in ubuku?
[01:48] <lesshaste> ikonia: there is support in this channel? :)
[01:49] <lesshaste> Cribbzter: ubuntu?
[01:49] <rgl> I've reinstalled windows, but it removed grub.  I've tried to restore grub using the commands at http://pastie.caboo.se/42831 but I can't boot anyways... can you please help?
[01:49] <ikonia> lesshaste: cheeky
[01:49] <Cribbzter> yes lesshaste
[01:49] <lesshaste> ikonia: :)
[01:49] <lesshaste> Cribbzter: yes.. use nm-applet
[01:49] <lesshaste> Cribbzter: but first get the right driver
[01:49] <Cribbzter> where do i get the drivers then :-s
[01:49] <ikonia> Cribbzter: should be in ubuntu if its supported
[01:49] <lesshaste> Cribbzter: for?
[01:49] <ikonia> rgl: is that the right partition in you entered

[01:50] <ikonia> Night_Owl: done ?
[01:50] <ikonia> well done
[01:50] <lesshaste> ikonia: some restricted drivers need different kernels I think
[01:50] <Cribbzter> lesshaste for my wlan in my laptop
[01:50] <rgl> ikonia, the hda8 is the one where I have ubuntu installed
[01:50] <ikonia> lesshaste: yup - but then it won't be "supported"
[01:50] <Night_Owl> Now to the configuring, which should be easier, since I've done that before :)
[01:50] <ikonia> Night_Owl: good man
[01:50] <ikonia> rgl: what error do you get- is grub just not installed
[01:50] <GazzaF> okay, i have the wireless zydas running okay as shown by lshw , and i have got the IP addys, Gateway and DNS from here in windows using cmd, and I have put these values into gnome Network Settings by clicking the properties box.... and then ?
[01:50] <lesshaste> ikonia: :) nothing is supported. This is free software!
[01:50] <ikonia> lesshaste: tounge in cheek
[01:51] <rgl> ikonia, I forgot to mention, that now, I can't boot the PC :(   I have to use the ubuntu live cd
[01:51] <lesshaste> ikonia: :)
[01:51] <ikonia> rgl: whats the error
[01:51] <rgl> ikonia, grub does not give any error.
[01:51] <Cribbzter> lesshaste how do i start the nm-applet?
[01:51] <ikonia> what happens when you try to boot the PC
[01:51] <ikonia> god this is like pulling teeth sometimes

[02:10] <okaratas> I use ubuntu 6.10 in the computers of the company and keep it updated. I also use ubuntu for the servers. However, there were several crashes in the ubuntu that I installed in the laptop. What might be the reason of that? In addition, firefox is crashed in all computers most of the time. What would you suggest?
[02:10] <lesshaste> [WaZ] : you had to do sudo chgrp fuse /dev/fuse
[02:10] <[WaZ] > network-manager-gnome
[02:10] <[WaZ] > lesshaste: nope, I used the graphical interface
[02:10] <osh> I have a really weird bug with my Xserver that I'm hoping someone can help with. It does start but the screen is all blank and after I've started it I can't stop it. Can't ctrl-alt-backspace, can't switch to virtual console. It works perfectly with the live-cd but not after install.
[02:11] <lesshaste> [WaZ] : for what?
[02:11] <ompaul> okaratas, afternoon
[02:11] <Cribbzter> [WAZ]  yeah that is what im typing but couldnt fint package
[02:11] <[WaZ] > lesshaste: to connect remotely, I used the tool that exists in Gnome
[02:11] <rgl> ikonia, man, you aren't going to beleive, now this PC has crased hard.. oh dear murphy :/
[02:11] <rgl> ikonia, you are still there?
[02:11] <ikonia> yes
[02:11] <ikonia> rgl: I've lost interest now
[02:11] <[WaZ] > Cribbzter: try sudo apt-cache search network-manager
[02:12] <lesshaste> [WaZ] : ok.. I don'y use gnome
[02:12] <[WaZ] > lesshaste: yes I know, ive never set up fuse
[02:12] <IdleOne> ikonia, may I msg you?
[02:12] <Cribbzter> [WAZ]  nothing happens

[02:13] <ijk> Installing ubuntu I told it to automatically mount my fat32 partition (used by windows) at startup. But this takes a long time, since it runs fsck to check for bad sectors or something. Any way to disable this check?
[02:14] <[WaZ] > ijk: fsck shouldn't check your fat32 filesystem I believe
[02:14] <rgl> ikonia, oh :(
[02:14] <[WaZ] > ijk: i think fsck is for ext* partitions
[02:14] <ompaul> ijk, it should run on the 25th/31sth restart
[02:14] <ikonia> rgl: sorry - you dissapeared
[02:15] <rgl> ikonia, the PC crashed :(
[02:15] <rgl> ikonia, I was trying to get online :(
[02:15] <Trixsey> My friend has a Radeon Xpress 1100 (which is, afaik, an improved Xpress 200?). Should he use the Xpress 200 driver on ati.com? There is no Xpress 1100 driver.
[02:15] <ikonia> ahh well
[02:15] <ijk> I'm fairly sure it is that. And it calls a programme called dosfsck.
[02:15] <Cribbzter> [WAZ]  its blank
[02:16] <[WaZ] > Cribbzter: i replied in Private message
[02:16] <rory`> Trixsey, I wouldnt
[02:16] <rory`> completly diff chipset
[02:16] <wildchild> I was trying to compile gimp: first I downloaded file, untar it and than ./configure But thise packages are missing: No package 'gimp-2.0' found, No package 'gimpui-2.0' found, No package 'gimpthumb-2.0' found how can I get those packages to complete the configure method?
[02:16] <rgl> ikonia, can you please contine from the setup (hd0) part?
[02:16] <Trixsey> rory`, then what should I do? there is no linux driver at all for Xpress 1100
[02:16] <Trixsey> from ati.com I mean
[02:16] <ikonia> wildchild: don't compile it - use the pre-build package in the ubuntu repo
[02:17] <wildchild> ikonia? and tha neme of package is?
[02:17] <[WaZ] > rgl: just go in grub, then root (hd0,7) then setup (hd0)
[02:17] <seravitae> my cdrom drive won't eject, umount -f doesnt work.
[02:17] <seravitae> how can i free the drive?

[02:17] <ikonia> wildchild: gimp
[02:17] <rgl> [WaZ] , I did it.  but it doesn't work when I restart the PC :(
[02:17] <wildchild> ikona: ok ups :)
[02:17] <ijk> ompaul: what mean you by that? ("it should run on the 25th/31sth restart")
[02:17] <Cribbzter> [WAZ]  cant se your replies in prv
[02:17] <ikonia> wildchild: apt-cache search gimp - or search for gimp in synaptic
[02:18] <[WaZ] > rgl: have you actually installed ubuntu?
[02:18] <ompaul> ijk, well the fsck should run between those two for each partition since it was added - if it running and requesting you do something like "fsck -y" then you should do that
[02:19] <ompaul> ijk, it does not touch non GNU/Linux  partitions
[02:20] <ijk> when I run fdisk -l it thinks my fat32 partition is an ext3 (id 83) but in windows it's certainly not :)
[02:20] <finalbeta> I have a file system that became unrecognized, can I somehow repair this? set it back to ext3, perhaps that's all it takes.
[02:20] <ompaul> ijk, your disk has some serious issues in the boot record which is where it reads those values from
[02:21] <rgl> [WaZ] , this was what I did: http://pastie.caboo.se/42831
[02:21] <ijk> Well, that's not good I guess.
[02:21] <rgl> how do I start sshd on ubuntu cd?
[02:21] <ompaul> ijk, I'll whisper one word for you "backups", actually let me make that clearer "make some now, no ifs ands or buts about it!"

[02:22] <linuxnewbie756> i was wondering fro a really good bittorent program, im not too satisfied with the default one for dapper

[02:22] <GoopyMonkey> kroiz: hello, now I'm in ubuntu
[02:22] <techie1> hello all.
[02:22] <[WaZ] > rgl: umount /dev/hda8
[02:22] <rgl> [WaZ] , I did it to use the same grub that I've installed on that partition
[02:23] <[WaZ] > then try again
[02:23] <GoopyMonkey> kroiz: I cant seem to access my hd
[02:23] <[WaZ] > rgl: it will, who said to mount the filesystem?
[02:23] <rgl> [WaZ] , I did that the first time, but didn0t work.  but I'll do it again.
[02:23] <techie1> For dualboot of ubuntu and windows xp is it better whether the partition (defragmented portion) is in NTFS or FAT32?
[02:23] <rory`> Trixsey yhpm
[02:23] <rgl> [WaZ] , noone.
[02:23] <[WaZ] > techie1: with NTFS you wont be able to write
[02:24] <terrox> okay how do I just mount a partition, I know its hda10 but adding it to fstab didn't seem to work, I just want full access to it
[02:24] <GoopyMonkey> does anyone know how to access my hd as a root user?
[02:24] <[WaZ] > rgl: do not mount it
[02:24] <Trixsey> rory`, huh?
[02:24] <foutrelis> meow :)
[02:24] <techie1> <[WaZ] >sure you could, using systemrescue CD

[02:24] <GoopyMonkey> how do i get to a folder as root user, using livecd?
[02:25] <ikonia> GoopyMonkey: why do you want to access it as root
[02:25] <[WaZ] > techie1: read your question bad
[02:25] <techie1> if defragmenting by hand you get FAT32, if using PerfectDISK you get the defragmentation in NTF
[02:25] <GoopyMonkey> ikonia: because i have mounted my hd, but it says i dont have permissoin
[02:25] <rgl> [WaZ] , oh, it doesn0t umount now... I'll reboot.
[02:25] <[WaZ] > rgl: ok
[02:26] <terrox> how do I automount all my local partitions?
[02:26] <GoopyMonkey> ikonia: can you help out here?
[02:26] <rgl> [WaZ] , I'm sorry, but it takes some time to boot from cd :(

[02:27] <GoopyMonkey> ikonia: if possible, dont mean to sound commanding :)
[02:27] <Trixsey> rory`, thanks!
[02:27] <ikonia> GoopyMonkey: sorry - just realised I'm late for an appointment - I must dash. Sorry
[02:27] <[WaZ] > techie1: Im not sure I understand what you mean
[02:27] <rgl> techie1, just create a second partition for XP?
[02:27] <GoopyMonkey> ikonia: ok, cya
[02:27] <[WaZ] > techie1: you should repartition, not refragment
[02:27] <[WaZ] > techie1: and then it doesn't matter what fs type you have
[02:28] <GoopyMonkey> so can anyone else help out here?
[02:28] <finalbeta> I have a file system that became unrecognized, can I somehow repair this? set it back to ext3, perhaps that's all it takes.
 or <[WaZ] > what do you use to repartition? Which program?
[02:28] <[WaZ] > techie1: be carefull though, windows defrag has a tendency to spread files over the whole drive
[02:28] <GoopyMonkey> I need to access /mnt as root user, through livecd
[02:28] <[WaZ] > techie1: I use the partitioner in the Ubuntu live CD
[02:28] <nickf> hello, could someone give me a hand with a mounting problem
[02:28] <techie1> <[WaZ] >that's why I am defragmenting before repartitionning. Using Perfectdisk
[02:28] <[WaZ] > techie1: I always do a clean install before repartitioning though
[02:29] <GoopyMonkey> nickf: what is it?
[02:29] <[WaZ] > techie1: windows XP usually is in NTFS
[02:29] <techie1> <[WaZ] >how to do a clean install since I have already so much in my windows xp?
[02:29] <rgl> techie1, oh, you already installed XP on the whole disk?  in that cases I use partition magic (its a commercial app thou) to shrink the partition.
[02:29] <[WaZ] > techie1: backup...
[02:30] <nickf> I'm settuping up ntfs-3g with /dev/hda1 which seems to be automatically mounted to /media/Storage
[02:30] <[WaZ] > techie1: or you could use a second HD
[02:30] <techie1> <[WaZ] >that's the odd thing, when defragmented manually I get FAT32 but if defragmenting with perfectdisk I get NTF's
[02:30] <nickf> but hte fstab entry mounts to /media/hda1
[02:30] <[WaZ] > techie1: defragmentation shouldn't alter your fs type
[02:30] <techie1> <[WaZ] >I already hve a second hard drive installed. Max out.
[02:30] <nickf> where does the Storage mount point come from?
[02:30] <GazzaF2> just WHAT, do i DO?

[02:30] <[WaZ] > or /etc/mtab
[02:31] <techie1> <[WaZ] >that's what so odd... between manual defrag and perfectdisk defrag results.
[02:31] <[WaZ] > techie1: indeed thats strange...
[02:31] <lesshaste> I have done ssh -X from one of linux boxes to another
[02:31] <techie1> <[WaZ] >so i want to make sure my partitions are NTF's before installing Ubuntu
[02:31] <lesshaste> but when I try to run an X app it says Unable to connect to X server
[02:31] <lesshaste> what do I need to do to get it to display X apps?
[02:31] <[WaZ] > techie1: Ubuntu will need a partition of its own, so it doesn't matter what fs type your HD is in
[02:32] <techie1> <[WaZ] >I see.
[02:32] <[WaZ] > techie1: but Hds that have been used extensively have a tendency to have files all over the HD, so repartitioning might break your windows install
[02:32] <Cribbzter> [WAZ]  i have pasted my source.list
[02:32] <ompaul> there are sevearl people asking about mounting paritions this is all you need  >> /msg ubotu ntfs <<  aand where that factoid says other things just replace /msg ubotu that_other_word and it will all be good
[02:32] <techie1> maybe I am looking at the partition info, the wrong way. Is it not, controlpanel, etc. administ tool disk management, etc.... until you get there?
[02:32] <[WaZ] > Cribbzter:
[02:32] <[WaZ] > ok
[02:33] <techie1> Even if it is fat32 will Ubuntu installer handle the partitioning?
[02:33] <IdleOne> techie1, yes
[02:33] <techie1> If so I have been told to be carefull with the Grub loader not to go into the MBR? what is your opinion.
[02:33] <techie1> Or to create a separate disk for the loader.
[02:34] <rory`> grub must be in the MBR to dual boot afaik
[02:34] <[WaZ] > techie1: doesnt matter, you can always restore MBR with XP installation disks
[02:34] <techie1> really?
[02:34] <[WaZ] > techie1: yes
[02:34] <techie1> at least there is some progress now in my understanding.
[02:34] <techie1> thanks.
[02:34] <techie1> So the ubuntu install should take care of the partition even if my partition is in FAT32
[02:35] <[WaZ] > techie1: yes
[02:35] <techie1> It should be a very easy transition.
[02:35] <nickf> WaZ, the etc/fstab entry mounts to /media/hda1 - I'm asking where the /media/Storage mount comes from ?
[02:35] <__doc__> does somebody here have a wacom intuous 3 tablet configured with ubuntu?
[02:35] <[WaZ] > techie1: but be carefull as it might erase other files on your HD, so i recommend either using a new harddrive or starting from a fresh XP install
[02:35] <drivera90> Recommend a nice movie player for playing MKVs.
[02:35] <techie1> let me go back to the "thinking board" (must rethink this) and get ready for the install.
[02:35] <rory`> vlcplayer
[02:36] <techie1> One final question, the Ubuntu install does not have an Xchat to communicate back here. So how do I get it?
[02:36] <GoopyMonkey> can anyone help with livecd prob?
[02:36] <drivera90> VLC refuses to open, gxine doesn't let me switch the audio tracks.
[02:36] <jrib> techie1: you can use gaim.  Or you can install the "xchat" package
[02:36] <IdleOne> GoopyMonkey, what is the exact problemn

[02:38] <nexousNET> Hi, When I go to remove openoffice.org package for complete removal in Synaptics Package Manager, it says ubuntu-desktop will be removed. Is that suppose to remove it?
[02:38] <Phasor> I am trying to install Ubuntu 6.10 onto my 200GiB hardrive. At the moment, all the space is taken up by a NTFS partition for Windows. At the install screen I selected to edit the partition table manually. After using gparted to say that I wanted to resize my NTFS partition and create two new ones, it said that the NTFS partition could not be resized due to bad sectors and recommended that I run chkdsk under windows and reboot twice. I have done this and n

[02:53] <deadeyes> hi all
[02:53] <deadeyes> have a question about vncserver
[02:53] <jrib> mojojojo__: right click on the plugin and go to properties.  There should be an option there
[02:53] <jrib> !pastebin | GoopyMonkey
[02:53] <ubotu> GoopyMonkey: 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)
[02:53] <SatanGolga> jrib: ahh, so i can just try and make one for fvwm-themes-start? :)
[02:53] <deadeyes> how can I be able to use different vnc displays?
[02:53] <jrib> GoopyMonkey: to view your fstab, you would do  'gedit /etc/fstab' in a terminal
[02:53] <deadeyes> so different people can work on that computer at the same time
[02:53] <jrib> SatanGolga: yeah
[02:54] <mojojojo__> jrib,  thx :)

[03:11] <lardarse> does anyone know how to make ubuntu recognise refresh rates that are != 60 Hz for my monitor?
[03:11] <topyli> hrm
[03:11] <M3G4crux> I can burn a cd that can be played in a dvd player or in another computer or operating system but when trying to read it within the same ubuntu system it does not and it outputs a message saying that the track of the cd is not recognized
[03:12] <rgl> [WaZ] , can you help now?  I've updated http://pastie.caboo.se/42840 with my partition table info
[03:12] <xribbzter12> any help with my wireless? pls
[03:12] <rgl> [WaZ] , I'm really lost... no ideia why the BIOS doesn't pick up the grub :(
[03:12] <[WaZ] > rgl: it should work
[03:13] <[WaZ] > rgl: is your bios set to boot on HD?
[03:13] <rgl> [WaZ] , yes (ofcourse)
[03:13] <Lice> is this */60 *  * * *   root    php /opt/lampp/cron/deleteusers.php
[03:13] <harry_> Is it possible to install ubuntu on a mac using the same live cd?
[03:13] <rgl> [WaZ] , you got any tips for debuging this?
[03:13] <IdleOne> harry_, you need the ppc version
[03:13] <Lice> a good cron string?  */60 *  * * *   root    php /opt/lampp/cron/deleteusers.php
[03:13] <[WaZ] > well it really should work...
[03:14] <opshds__> Would anyone here know how during installation via the alternate install cd how i could disable the installation of my intel graphics card? I'm using a PCI Geforce 5500
[03:14] <harry_> what's the ppc version?
[03:14] <opshds__> I get a traceback with reference to my Intel Graphics Chipset
[03:14] <[WaZ] > try reinstalling MBR from windows XP install see if you can boot in windows at least
[03:14] <opshds__> anyone there?
[03:14] <IdleOne> harry_, www.ubuntu.com and download the UbuntuPPC iso
[03:14] <defrysk> opshds, make sure to disble your intel graphics card in the bios
[03:15] <cribbzter> how do i get my WIFI to work?
[03:16] <cribbzter> its just getting errors when i do as the Wifidocs says
[03:16] <harry_> ppc as in powerPC?
[03:16] <tenco> after printing "starting up.." my monitor goes dark and the machine restarts. what could be the cause?
[03:16] <IdleOne> harry_, yes
[03:16] <tenco> its a p1 200mhz with 64mb of memory
[03:16] <tenco> and linux-image-server
[03:16] <harry_> what if it is using an intel processor?
[03:16] <harry_> is it different?
[03:17] <defrysk> intel processors use i386
[03:17] <defrysk> same as normal pc
[03:17] <IdleOne> harry_, then use the regular Live CD
[03:17] <harry_> so if it uses an intel, I can use the same cd
[03:17] <IdleOne> I think :/
[03:17] <daft> an anyone tell me what this means please ? : "All I did was copy /boot/config-2.6.17-10-generic to the new kernel .config, did a "make oldconfig", disabled ACPI_SLEEP, then proceeded normally from there..."
[03:17] <defrysk> harry_, yes
[03:17] <IdleOne> yeah should be able to
[03:17] <tenco> does linux-image-server need more than 64mb of ram?
[03:18] <harry_> thanks
[03:18] <IndyGunFreak> 200mhz, w/ 64mb of Ram?  thats prolly gonna be bare minimum
[03:18] <cribbzter> pls anyone
[03:18] <tenco> or what else could it be?
[03:18] <GoopyMonkey> harry: If you have an Intel processor, you can use the regular LiveCD like me :-D
[03:18] <tenco> IndyGunFreak: it's only a router
[03:18] <[WaZ] > rgl: can you pastebin your /boot/grub/menu/lst?
[03:18] <IndyGunFreak> tenco: oh ok..
[03:18] <tenco> IndyGunFreak: which i want to setup
[03:18] <gop> where a good place to shop for a harddisk
[03:19] <gop> like a good hard disk
[03:19] <rgl> [WaZ] , but grub doesn't even seems to load :(
[03:19] <daft> anyone? i dont want to screw up my install
[03:19] <GoopyMonkey> PC World in the UK
[03:19] <IndyGunFreak> tenco: gotcha, i was thinking a full functioning desktop, which xubuntu might do ok on a system with those specs
[03:19] <tenco> IndyGunFreak: but i cant boot, after "starting up..." the monitor goes dark and the machine reboots
[03:19] <IndyGunFreak> tenco: have you tried the alternate install CD?
[03:19] <GoopyMonkey> gop: Whiich country are you in?
[03:19] <tenco> IndyGunFreak: i used debootstrap
[03:19] <[WaZ] > rgl: mount hda8 and pastebin your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:19] <finalbeta> gop , there are people from all over the world here.
[03:19] <finalbeta> How on earth...
[03:19] <tenco> IndyGunFreak: cant boot from cd or usb, and i dont have any floppies
[03:19] <GoopyMonkey> finalbeta: lol
[03:20] <gop> nyc
[03:20] <gop> nj
[03:20] <IndyGunFreak> tenco: i see.. well sorry you're beyond any help i can give.
[03:20] <gop> I need online
[03:20] <IdleOne> gop, your local pc store is a good place to start
[03:20] <tenco> IndyGunFreak: ok, np.
[03:20] <rgl> [WaZ] , OK.  I'm just trying to restore the MBR from windows cd.  gimme a sec.
[03:20] <[WaZ] > rgl: hmm, its probably not that though
[03:20] <IdleOne> gop, tigerdirect.com
[03:20] <GoopyMonkey> gop: eBay!
[03:20] <gop> I mean for price and storage online
[03:20] <IndyGunFreak> gop: http://www.tigerdirect.com or http://www.newegg.com
[03:20] <[WaZ] > rgl: restore it first, its probably not the vonf file
[03:20] <jrib> gop: what IndyGunFreak said and zipzoomfly is good too
[03:20] <gop> cool
[03:20] <IndyGunFreak> yeah, i always forget about zipzoomfly
[03:20] <joey_> I'm from Mars..

[03:21] <IndyGunFreak> but since TD is in Illinois, i order from TD before noon, and i usually have whatever i ordered around 3 the next day.. even though I only pay for 5 day shipping :)
[03:21] <gop> you do
[03:22] <IndyGunFreak> gop: yes i do... 99% of the time, as long as th eitem is in stock.
[03:22] <IndyGunFreak> if i order around 8am, i'll have it by 3 the next day
[03:22] <IndyGunFreak> but you figure, its probably 200mi from springfield to Indpls.. only 1 UPS hub in between
[03:22] <IndyGunFreak> gop: what exactly are you looking for?
[03:23] <daft> am i lagged?
[03:23] <IndyGunFreak> just a hard drive to put linux on?
[03:23] <gop> IndyGunFreak,  is this a good offer

[03:24] <gop> and old yellowdog I want to  upgrade it
[03:24] <IndyGunFreak> gop: if you just need something for Linux and music, i'd look at what is on clearance, you can probably get a 80gig for cheap(thats what I did when I started Linux several eyars ago)
[03:25] <gop> I have linux on my main box, but on my samba box I have ppc yellowdog
[03:25] <daft> can you at least tell me a channel where I could get some help

[03:28] <cribbzter> IndyGunFreak ?
[03:28] <IndyGunFreak> i was saying good luck with your wifi, its hard under Linux
[03:28] <cribbzter> seems like there is some kind of drivers missing or something
[03:29] <gop> this is my computer
[03:29] <gop> http://www.apple-history.com/?page=gallery&model=g4pci&performa=off&sort=date&order=ASC
[03:29] <joey_> wifi likes windows...
[03:29] <bulmer> cribbzter: okay what you have done so far and lets troubleshoot
[03:29] <IndyGunFreak> gop: sorry i can't help.. my familiarity with macs and mac hardware is minimal at beset
[03:29] <gop> oh cool
[03:30] <tyrael69> So I've got this problem with installing Ubuntu via the alternate install cd... I'm continuously getting a trace back that references my intel graphics chipset. Is there a way to disable installing the support for that. Everything seems to show up fine with my geforce pci card
[03:30] <IndyGunFreak> cribbzter: did you use NDISwrapper to get the drivers for your wireless device?
[03:30] <cribbzter> bulmer check priv
[03:30] <cribbzter> IndyGunFreak no
[03:30] <bulmer> do it here in main please..no private mesg
[03:30] <IndyGunFreak> cribbzter: well, thats probably your first step
[03:31] <cribbzter> IndyGunFreak how do i do that ndiswrapper
[03:31] <cribbzter> bulmer yeah i have done like it says in the wifidocs
[03:31] <IndyGunFreak> cribbzter: use google.. i don't know, i just know ndiswrapper is what you use to make a windows driver work under linux for a wireless device
[03:31] <upd> when we will get new ubuntu
[03:31] <tyrael69> is there a site where i can reference various tracebacks?
[03:31] <bulmer> cribbzter: which was what? give me the highlights
[03:31] <joey_> ubuntu 7.04?
[03:31] <upd> yes
[03:32] <cribbzter> bulmer but when i used sudo ifup wlan0
[03:32] <Kaso> Is there any particular reason ive had my super-block go bad like 3 times in the last 2 weeks? Bad hard drive or am i doing something wrong from ubuntu
[03:32] <bulmer> cribbzter: what chip card you have?
[03:32] <jamesbrose> is there a website to make virtual machines for vmware?
[03:32] <cribbzter> bulmer it says no such device
[03:32] <cribbzter> bulmer broadcom
[03:32] <Tuumba> !vmware

[03:32] <Phasor> I am trying to install Ubuntu 6.10 onto my harddrive, which already has 1 NTFS partition taking up all the space. After running gparted to try and resize it, it told me that it wouldn't do so due to bad sectors and advised that I ran chkdsk under Windows and then run ntfsresize with the -b flag/switch (whatever you cal it under Linux). However, it still refuses to resize it and says it still has bad sectors. Can someone tell me what I have done wrong?
[03:33] <upd> so when it will be ubuntu 7.04 it will be too new kubuntu?
[03:33] <bulmer> cribbzter: this a usb or pci card?
[03:33] <prom> *sigh* just for the record: xchat connecting to $somewhere and joining $channel when first run is pretty brave suckage.
[03:33] <cribbzter> bulmer built in
[03:33] <IndyGunFreak> upd: it will be out april o7...(7(year)04(month)
[03:34] <joey_> i use gnome...

[03:39] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[03:39] <cribbzter> bulmer and that is?
[03:39] <roxlu> jo_ yeah something like that indeed
[03:39] <bulmer> cribbzter: type it in
[03:39] <cribbzter> bulmer in the terminal=?
[03:40] <bulmer> cribbzter: yes
[03:40] <tenco> requires linux-image-server more ram than linux-image-generic?
[03:40] <Phasor> Can someone help me with resizing my partitions? I have a 200GiB Harddrive, on which there is 1 windows NTFS partition, taking up all the space. I want to resize this to 130GiB and put on a linux-swap and ext3 partition in the freed space to install Ubuntu onto. Can someone point me to the best way of doing this?
[03:41] <cribbzter> bulmer nothing happens
[03:41] <zelevw> hi everyone...im trying to setup a simple website on apache...im running ubuntu 5.10...i can get index.html to display but cannot get the images subdirectory to display...the images directory is set to 775 and the files to 644, the owner and group is www-data...what can it be? thanks in advance.
[03:41] <IndyGunFreak> Rie1: could you run a windows rar program under Wine?
[03:41] <Phasor> P.S. I am also told by ntfsresize that I have 5 bad sectors on the disk
[03:41] <shigutso> How do I change the USB Permissions?
[03:41] <cribbzter> bulmer when i type dmesg | grep broadcom
[03:41] <jo_> roxlu: thats the best i heard that even tv-stations in slowakia using cinerella, because free and good,,,,it is a bit like premiere pro or so, but in the syn-manager you'll find pivitv or so, which is ok but very very simple, so no multiple-tracks, cinerella has multi-tracks
[03:41] <bulmer> cribbzter: how did you find out your wifi chip is broadcom?
[03:42] <roxlu> oke thanx
[03:42] <cribbzter> bulmer from windows
[03:42] <jo_> roxlu: question, your video-performance is good??
[03:42] <IndyGunFreak> Rie1: i have Unfar, and Unrar-free in my repositories...
[03:42] <roxlu> yes
[03:42] <IndyGunFreak> i mean Unrar-nonfree and Unrar-free in my repo.
[03:42] <bulmer> cribbzter: try also to find  which chiip via   lshw   and look for your broadcom
[03:43] <jo_> roxlu: not choppy? cause i got bad performance only with video-playback, on all players
[03:43] <cribbzter> bulmer is there anyway you could help me remotely?
[03:43] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[03:43] <Rie1> IndyGunFreak: unrar-free gices me failed on all files within the rar archive, I made it myself yesterday and it unpacks fine on my windows machine
[03:43] <Rie1> let me check unfar... (never heard of it actuaslly...)
[03:43] <jo_> roxlu: what distro? ubuntu 6.10?
[03:44] <roxlu> yes
[03:44] <IndyGunFreak> RIel: did you try unrar-nonfree?.. its in my repos
[03:44] <xtknight> unfar?  lol what's that?
[03:44] <jo_> roxlu: what players do u use?
[03:44] <Soccer5555> my desktop items have dissapeared
[03:44] <IndyGunFreak> it was a typo
[03:44] <Soccer5555> how do i get them back
[03:44] <shigutso> How do I change the USB Permissions? (using Ubuntu 6.06.1)
[03:44] <xtknight> Soccer5555: try 'sudo killall nautilus'
[03:45] <bulmer> cribbzter: im assisting you remotely now :)
[03:45] <xtknight> Soccer5555: if you're not doing any file opreations at the moment
[03:45] <IndyGunFreak> bulmer: translation.. he wants you to do it for him
[03:45] <Phasor> Can anyone point me to a good resource on resizing partitions? I'm not getting very far using ntfsresize, it doesn't seem to like the disk and it's 5 bad sectors
[03:45] <Soccer5555> nothing happened
[03:45] <Soccer5555> and my desktop picture has dissapeared
[03:45] <Soccer5555> too
[03:45] <xtknight> Soccer5555: gnome?
[03:45] <Soccer5555> xfce
[03:45] <cribbzter> bulmer where do i get lshw?
[03:45] <IndyGunFreak> that doesn't sound good.
[03:46] <bulmer> cribbzter: you just type that in on your console/terminal
[03:46] <xtknight> Soccer5555: hm, 'sudo killall thunar' perhaps?
[03:46] <Phasor> Soccer5555: Have you tried rebooting?
[03:46] <Rie1> IndyGunFreak: I found it, unrar-free is just not got, I forgot to add a repository and now I have unrar (from backports) unrar works, unrar-free failed on all files
[03:46] <Soccer5555> yep
[03:46] <zelevw> hi everyone...im trying to setup a simple website on apache...im running ubuntu 5.10...i can get index.html to display but cannot get the images subdirectory to display...the images directory is set to 775 and the files to 664, the owner and group is www-data...  Can anyone give me a hand? thanks in advance.
[03:46] <xtknight> maybe unrar uses a newer library than unrar-free
[03:46] <IndyGunFreak> Riel, cool
[03:46] <Soccer5555> nothing
[03:46] <xtknight> Soccer5555: check Phasor's comment (have you tried rebooting?)
[03:46] <IndyGunFreak> Riel, i guess the next thing to try would have been to use a windows rar program under wine
[03:47] <bulmer> zelevw: in the apache channel they are good at that
[03:47] <cribbzter> bulmer ok done what u want to know from lshw?
[03:47] <Soccer5555> i have
[03:47] <hellraiser_rob> anyone know any good chess apps?
[03:47] <Soccer5555> but that was last night
[03:47] <Soccer5555> when i turned the comp off
[03:47] <Soccer5555> let me try again
[03:47] <xtknight> Soccer5555: k
[03:47] <mojo> tehxed: you sticking around this time?

[03:47] <Xif> OT: Hi. How do I say "the clock is an hour too ahead what it should be"?  i.e. it shows 11:00 when the actual time is 10:00?
[03:47] <a5benwillis> What command can I run from console to add a new user?
[03:48] <Rie1> IndyGunFreak: it works already and I don't want to run Wino on this macine (I am in Ecuador, machine is in holland....and I have just a 200Kb connection)
[03:48] <xtknight> hellraiser_rob: 'apt-cache search chess' for a full list
[03:48] <hellraiser_rob> xtknight: is that in the repositories?
[03:48] <xtknight> a5benwillis: 'sudo adduser userName'
[03:48] <xtknight> hellraiser_rob: sure is
[03:48] <Phasor> Can anyone help me with ntfsresize? It says I have 5 bad sectors and refuses to do anything, even when I use the -b and -f option
[03:48] <IndyGunFreak> Riel, i understand, i was just trying to think if you coudln't find unrar-nonfree..lol
[03:48] <soundray> Xif: you say "It's one hour fast"
[03:48] <hellraiser_rob> xtknight: cool thanks
[03:48] <IndyGunFreak> believe me, i hate wine to.

[03:48] <roxlu> jo_: di you install cinerella from source?
[03:48] <xtknight> IndyGunFreak, hellraiser_rob: no clue what the best chess client is but that's the one i know of
[03:48] <jo_> roxlu: yes, once
[03:49] <bulmer> cribbzter: is it on btw? you flip the switch to on right?

[03:49] <IndyGunFreak> i started it via terminal, and it has no gui
[03:49] <roxlu> jo_:  can veejay be used to capture video and create simple videos?
[03:49] <jo_> roxlu: what does it say?
[03:50] <cribbzter> bulmer u can only turn of via software
[03:50] <roxlu> (dvd's maybe?)
[03:50] <roxlu> this: ./configure: 47: Syntax error: Bad fd number
[03:50] <jo_> roxlu: yes
[03:50] <hellraiser_rob> lol its console based
[03:50] <xtknight> haha
[03:50] <Soccer5555> nope nothing happened
[03:50] <IndyGunFreak> oh to hell with that...lol
[03:50] <xtknight> really?
[03:50] <hellraiser_rob> yeah
[03:50] <bulmer> cribbzter: just making sure it is on, even if you have to enable it via software
[03:50] <hellraiser_rob> yeah
[03:50] <c03> hi

[03:51] <jo_> roxlu: ok, do you have the tools to configure: autoconf, autotools, gcc, etc...?
[03:51] <bulmer> cribbzter: i dont know, how do you do it in windoz?
[03:51] <roxlu> hmm I think so
[03:51] <roxlu> can I check that?

[03:51] <IndyGunFreak> they are both in the repos
[03:52] <hellraiser_rob> i've tried pouet chess with limited results (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=369428)
[03:52] <jo_> xtknight: right
[03:52] <c03> wine, anyone
[03:52] <c03> ?
[03:52] <IndyGunFreak> hellraiser_rob: try brutal chess, i'm gonna install it now.
[03:52] <bulmer> cribbzter: if in dmesg its not active, you need to somehow activate it
[03:52] <hellraiser_rob> ok :0
[03:53] <cribbzter> bulmer but nothing happens when i type that do i need to type anything before dmesg
[03:53] <Tuumba> how can i create a file in usr folder ?
[03:53] <Tuumba> i need root permision
[03:53] <jo_> somebody here with good performance but choppy video?

[03:53] <Tuumba> how can i get ir ?
[03:53] <soundray> Tuumba: use 'sudo mkdir'
[03:53] <Tuumba> get it ?
[03:53] <jrib> Tuumba: why do you need to do that?
[03:53] <soundray> Tuumba: that should never be necessary though
[03:53] <hellraiser_rob> how do i install that?
[03:53] <bulmer> cribbzter: dmesg tells you which hardware are active at boot...
[03:53] <Tuumba> soundray:  thnx
[03:54] <soundray> hellraiser_rob: you should normally only install things in $HOME, /opt or /usr/local/
[03:54] <IndyGunFreak> hellraiser_rob: open synaptic, search for chess.. its the first or 2nd one.. there's also one called 3d chess, i haven't tried that one though
[03:54] <IndyGunFreak> soundray: he said how, not where
[03:54] <soundray> IndyGunFreak: thanks, I know what he said
[03:54] <jo_> i need an sata / pata expert

[03:54] <jo_> !pata
[03:54] <mahatma> hello; when running update manager, it says I can update directly to feisty from dapper, but the pages on the net says I should update to edgy first; should I just update to feisty?;)

[03:55] <cribbzter> bulmer whats should i type=?
[03:55] <soundray> IndyGunFreak: because he was about to render his system non-FHS compliant
[03:56] <bulmer> cribbzter: umm i meant, nothing shows up when you do  dmesg | grep broadcom ?

[03:59] <zelevw> hi everyone...im trying to setup a simple website on apache...im running ubuntu 5.10...i can get index.html to display but cannot get the images subdirectory to display...the images directory is set to 775 and the files to 664, the owner and group is www-data...  Can anyone give me a hand? thanks in advance.
[03:59] <lordkeiden> thanks
[03:59] <Sukka101> I'm having trouble with an OEM installation
[03:59] <soundray> lordkeiden: use 'apt-get clean' to remove all archives from the cache
[03:59] <jrib> mahatma: do you realize feisty is in development and bound to be broken at times?
[04:00] <soundray> Tuumba: please don't paste stuff here, there is a pastebin for that.
[04:00] <Tuumba> soundray:  ????????
[04:00] <IndyGunFreak> mahatma: not positive, but i think you have to go dapper>>>edgy>>>feisty
[04:00] <bulmer> cribbzter: type this   lsmod |grep bcmw
[04:00] <mahatma> jrib: yes, but I need to run feisty cause the applications I want to run, only runs in feisty
[04:00] <jrib> mahatma: what applications?
[04:00] <IndyGunFreak> mahatma: what app?
[04:00] <phixnay> cron doesn't work for me and I don't know why
[04:00] <cribbzter> bulmer nothing
[04:00] <mahatma> IndyGunFreak: yeah, but update manager only tells me that 7.04 is available
[04:01] <jrib> phixnay: is the cron daemon running?
[04:01] <cribbzter> bulmer most be something wrong with the comand
[04:01] <IndyGunFreak> mahatma: what app are you trying to run?
[04:01] <mahatma> IndyGunFreak: jrib: it's a proprietary accounting application that will only run in feisty
[04:01] <phixnay> jrib: how do I find out?
[04:01] <Tsool> Hiya folks. I'm trying to connect to my wireless network from the live cd-bootup. My network is hidden and encrypted with a 128bit wep-key. Linux finds the network adapter, but when I try to enter the key I can only enter so many hex-digits, and, naturally, the connection fails. How can I reach my network from the livecd? *Without* changing the encryption level.
[04:01] <jrib> phixnay: ps -ef | grep cron
[04:01] <soundray> Tuumba: decide on a name, like winewar3, and run 'gksudo gedit /usr/local/bin/winewar3'. Add the lines you just pasted here to it, and save. Then in a terminal, run 'sudo chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/winewar3'
[04:01] <bulmer> cribbzter: that just list whats loaded modules and grepping for bcmw
[04:01] <mahatma> IndyGunFreak: I need this for my company as there is no free software for this need
[04:01] <phixnay> jrib : root      4544     1  0 09:46 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/cron
[04:01] <phixnay> phix      5731  5480  0 10:01 pts/0    00:00:00 grep cron
[04:01] <soundray> Tuumba: after that, you should be able to run your script from a terminal or with Alt-F2
[04:01] <cribbzter> bulmer it just jumps one row down
[04:02] <IndyGunFreak> mahatma: well its kinda silly to write something like that only for Feisty, given Feisty is subject to alot of changes
[04:02] <IndyGunFreak> mahatma: why not write it for Dapper or Edgy
[04:02] <wims> how do i add a dns server to my list of dns servers ?
[04:02] <jrib> phixnay: yeah.  What does your line in crontab look like?
[04:02] <cribbzter> bulmer but when i typ lsmod a list comes
[04:02] <mahatma> IndyGunFreak: yeah, I know; well I dont write this application myself; it's called HansaWorld
[04:02] <bulmer> cribbzter: its going to be tuff if we cant get your chip activated at boot
[04:02] <Steb> Is there a release date for firefox 2.0.0.2 on ubuntu?
[04:02] <phixnay> jrib: * * * * * echo "Why isn't this working?"
[04:02] <tenco> ok. i installed the drive now in a p3 733mhz with 512mb ram. there it boots but not on my p1 200mhz 64mb ram. how could that be?
[04:02] <wiz> I'm thinking about putting ubuntu on my laptop, but the wireless card isn't listed as having wireless extensions by default, how can I fix that?
[04:02] <bulmer> cribbzter: that lsmod will list all the modules loaded
[04:03] <IndyGunFreak> Steb: i was wondering that myself.
[04:03] <carthik> wiz, whats the card?
[04:03] <jrib> phixnay: honestly, this doesn't sound like a good reason to run feisty.  I wouldn't do accounting for my business on an OS that is in development
[04:03] <cribbzter> bulmer maybe if i install a driver for the chipset?
[04:03] <mahatma> IndyGunFreak: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=362244&highlight=hansaworld
[04:03] <IndyGunFreak> jrib: i agree 100%
[04:03] <cribbzter> bulmer think i can have found a driver on broadcoms homesite
[04:03] <bulmer> tenco umm thats way too low of a spec..you need more memory 192 meg as min
[04:04] <ardchoille> phixnay: * * * * * echo "Why isn't this working?"  <-- echo where?
[04:04] <bulmer> cribbzter: get the linux driver version not the windows if possible
[04:04] <tenco> bulmer: it will be a route
[04:04] <tenco> bulmer: router
[04:04] <tenco> bulmer: no desktop install
[04:04] <cribbzter> bulmer yes
[04:04] <paitart> hi. i'm using dapper. how do i install the KDE desktop?
[04:04] <cribbzter> tenco ?
[04:04] <IndyGunFreak> mahatma: did you try to get it working in Edgy?
[04:04] <bulmer> tenco it dont matter, to load ubuntu thats the min
[04:04] <wiz> carthik, I can't seem to figure that out, it's onboard on my gateway solo 1450
[04:04] <jrib> phixnay: erm ignore my last comment to you, it was intended for mahatma
[04:04] <phixnay> ardchoille: I thought echo echoed to the terminal,
[04:04] <paitart> hi. i'm using dapper. how do i install the KDE desktop?
[04:04] <mahatma> IndyGunFreak: yes; it didn't
[04:04] <mahatma> IndyGunFreak: same messagre
[04:05] <cribbzter> tenco Below you will find the latest drivers for Broadcom's desktop NetXtreme Ethernet controllers:
[04:05] <mahatma> IndyGunFreak: *message
[04:05] <carthik> wiz, if you are running ubuntu, try doing a lshw and seeing what card it is
[04:05] <jrib> phixnay: yeah but cron isn't running in your terminal.  Try  'touch /home/phixnay/cron_is_working'
[04:05] <bulmer> tenco unless you have a cdrom that has the bare minimum ubuntu..
[04:05] <IndyGunFreak> mahatma: well, i wouldn't bother tryign to get this to work with Feisty, feisty is subject to a lot of changes that may make it not work under Feisty
[04:05] <frankd3> wims: check your resolv.conf
[04:05] <ardchoille> phixnay: phixnay Which terminal?
[04:05] <IndyGunFreak> but in reference to your upgrade question.
[04:05] <carthik> wiz, then search on google as to how to get it working
[04:05] <tenco> bulmer: oh no. how odd. are there ubuntu kernels i can get through apt which have lower ram usage?
[04:05] <phixnay> ardchoille: the terminal application
[04:05] <wiz> carthik, been doing that all morning wasn't finding much, so I figured I'd ask in here
[04:05] <IndyGunFreak> mahatma: you probably need t upgrade dapper to edgy, then edgy to feisty, to make the upgrade work
[04:05] <daxxar> What's the difference between the files in /etc/modprobe.d/ (bad_list and blacklist, e.g.)
[04:05] <ardchoille> phixnay: The system isn't smart enough to do that.
[04:05] <tenco> bulmer: i use linux-image-server
[04:05] <IndyGunFreak> mahatma: you can't go from Dapper to Feisty to my knowledge, unless you do a new install
[04:05] <IndyGunFreak> which will cause you to lose dapper and all your files
[04:05] <carthik> wiz, do lshw and paste the result somewhere I can see - the pastebin, and send me the pastebin result.
[04:05] <bulmer> tenco im not familiar with all the different versions, but for such a low spec system, try DSL linux instead
[04:05] <phixnay> ardchoille: ok, what should my new crontab line be?
[04:06] <mahatma> IndyGunFreak: yes, but when I start update manager, it says 7.04, which is feisty to my knowledge
[04:06] <mahatma> IndyGunFreak: there is no option to select edgy
[04:06] <ardchoille> phixnay: You want some text echoed to the terminal?
[04:06] <jrib> mahatma: how are you running update-manager?
[04:06] <bulmer> tenco you need to start reading the readme files to learn the min requirements for these
[04:06] <daxxar> What's the difference between the files in /etc/modprobe.d/ (bad_list and blacklist, e.g.)
[04:06] <daxxar> Err, wrong window, sorry, didn't mean to repeat.
[04:06] <daxxar> :P
[04:06] <mahatma> jrib: gksu update-manager -c -d
[04:06] <jrib> mahatma: get rid of -d
[04:06] <tenco> bulmer: why does ubuntu kernels require so much ram? after all, it's just a linux kernel
[04:07] <tenco> bulmer: which should do fine with 64mb
[04:07] <phixnay> ardchoille: I just want to test if cron is working. I really wanted cron to run 'halt' at 1 am each day, but I just want to verify if cron works at all.
[04:07] <bulmer> tenco: i cant answer that ..im not the packager for ubuntu :)
[04:07] <wiz> carthik, can't pastebin ... no network on that pc without wireless I can tell you what it says under certain things if you'd like though?
[04:07] <tenco> bulmer: i need better support :)
[04:07] <bulmer> tenco i gave you an alternative...DSL linux
[04:07] <vrkhans> hi can any one help me in fixinf the problem
[04:07] <mahatma> jrib: I tried that, but then it doesn't list any upgrades;)
[04:07] <soundray> tenco: the kernel doesn't require 64MB -- much less than that
[04:08] <wiz> carthik,  it's listed as wlan0 and being a physical interface, and it looks like it loaded the prism2 usb driver for it
[04:08] <ardchoille> phixnay: Try this: env DISPLAY=:0. zenity --info --title="Testing cron" --text="Cron is working."
[04:08] <bluesign> i have a nokia n80ie phone, and it automatically publishes content via upnp, how can I browse it from ubuntu? any idea?
[04:08] <vrkhans> i just install ubuntu , but it doesnt boot gt an error
[04:08] <bulmer> tenco fork out the big mullah..aka greenbux then you will get great support ..hehehe
[04:08] <cribbzter> bulmer how do i install an driver :-s
[04:08] <tenco> bulmer: :)
[04:08] <jrib> mahatma: what does 'lsb_release -c' return?
[04:08] <paitart> hi. i'm using dapper. how do i install the KDE desktop?
[04:08] <bulmer> cribbzter: modprobe -r modulename
[04:08] <tenco> soundray: than sth other is the problem
[04:08] <vrkhans> mahatma: where are you from
[04:08] <tenco> soundray: it reboots right after printing "starting up..."
[04:08] <wiz> carthik, doesn't give much information, no vendor or anything
[04:09] <jrib> !kde | paitart
[04:09] <carthik> wiz, do lshw -C network
[04:09] <ubotu> paitart: 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
[04:09] <mahatma> jrib: hmm, weird; it returns Codename:       edgy
[04:09] <cribbzter> bulmer do i need to put the .tar files anywhere special?
[04:09] <mahatma> jrib: so I'm on edgy for some reason, damn
[04:09] <tenco> soundray: maybe some vga triage
[04:09] <wiz> carthik, that's what I did
[04:09] <vrkhans> ubot: can you solve my prolem
[04:09] <phixnay> ardchoille: * * * * * env DISPLAY=:0. zenity --info --title="Testing cron" --text="Cron is working."
[04:10] <w-mute> Hi. Does Ubuntu feature anything like the Debian network config that has a single point to configure ip_forward, syncookies and such stuff?
[04:10] <ryanakca> how can I download more than one file at a time using rsync? (it gets annoying having to type in my password every 3 seconds... and I have about 30 files to download.). I a list of all the files to download in a file.
[04:10] <ardchoille> phixnay: yes
[04:10] <bulmer> cribbzter: yes..its an archive file and needs to be un-tar'ed
[04:10] <carthik> wiz, so what does it say about your wireless interface?
[04:10] <Gfather> IdleOne, I've set ipv6 to false but still I've got really slow internet
[04:10] <wiz> carthik, lots of information about the wired card, nothing about the wireless aside from the wlan0 logical name and the driver
[04:10] <soundray> tenco: it could be faulty RAM
[04:10] <mahatma> jrib: I'll be a son of a gun; I though I was on dapper;)
[04:10] <Gfather> can anyone help me speed up my internet connection?
[04:10] <carthik> wiz, look under "product" and "vendor"
[04:10] <Gfather> i use a pentium 2 300 mhz
[04:10] <ryanakca> I'm currently using rsync -avz 192.168.1.102:/home/ryan/filename /home/ryan
[04:10] <phixnay> ardchoille: ok, now to wait for a minute
[04:10] <tenco> soundray: jep. i will test
[04:11] <cribbzter> bulmer how do i do that?
[04:11] <wiz> carthik, doesn't lost product or vendor for that card, only for the wired
[04:11] <ardchoille> phixnay: ;)
[04:11] <phixnay> archoille: the minute changed, I don't see anything
[04:11] <soundray> Gfather: there isn't a whole lot you can do. Some systems benefit from turning off IPv6:
[04:11] <soundray> !ipv6 | Gfather
[04:11] <bulmer> cribbzter: tar xvzf filename.tar.gz
[04:11] <ubotu> Gfather: To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[04:11] <carthik> wiz, try lspci | grep Network
[04:11] <mahatma> jrib: sorry for the confusion;)
[04:11] <Gfather> i already did that soundray, is there something else i could do aswell?
[04:12] <paitart> tnx ubotu!
[04:12] <w-mute> ryanakca: you could also use wildcards. I guess you'd have to surround the source file pattern with double quotes to prevent bash from expanding the wildcard itselt.
[04:12] <soundray> Gfather: what is it that's slow? Downloads? Interactive browsing?
[04:12] <wiz> carthik, nothing
[04:12] <jrib> mahatma: np, but I would focus on getting the application in edgy instead of upgrading to feisty if i were you, just my 2 cents
[04:12] <Gfather> browsing
[04:12] <cribbzter> r
[04:12] <Antonio_Carlos_M> hello
[04:12] <Antonio_Carlos_M> can u help me with something?
[04:12] <Gfather> it takes about 90 secs to open gmail
[04:12] <jrib> !helpme | Antonio_Carlos_M
[04:12] <ubotu> Antonio_Carlos_M: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:12] <cribbzter> bulmer where do i need to have the tar file for doing that? now its on my desktop
[04:12] <Gfather> (just the login-page)
[04:12] <Antonio_Carlos_M> ok
[04:13] <wiz> carthik, if I do lspci | grep Ethernet I get the wired, lspci doesn't list the wireless
[04:13] <phixnay> ardchoille: what was cron supposed to do with that line, because I didn't notice anything
[04:13] <Antonio_Carlos_M> i cant get my tv to work
[04:13] <soundray> Gfather: have you verified your DNS setup?
[04:13] <bulmer> cribbzter: anywhere really, as long as you remember where you put it
[04:13] <mahatma> jrib: I've really tried that; I've installed close to 20-30 font packs, but it seems unrelated: here is my bug: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=362244&highlight=hansaworld
[04:13] <ardchoille> phixnay: It worked here. It pops up a messagebox saying "Cron is working."
[04:13] <jrib> phixnay: use a "touch /home/phixnay/cron_is_working".  This is much more straight forward...
[04:13] <Gfather> eerm, soundray, wanna go pm?
[04:13] <Antonio_Carlos_M> i mean it worked before i instaled ati drivers
[04:13] <bulmer> cribbzter: rather anywhere you have write access to that directory
[04:13] <Antonio_Carlos_M> but after
[04:13] <carthik> wiz, you somehow have to find what card is in your laptop, if there is one, that is. Call the company - search online, whatever...
[04:13] <soundray> Gfather: not really
[04:13] <Gfather> ok
[04:13] <phixnay> k I'll try jrib's. what does that one do?
[04:14] <cribbzter> bulmer so if its in my root E: what should i type?
[04:14] <jrib> phixnay: creates a file called /home/phixnay/cron_is_working
[04:14] <Gfather> i've installed ubuntu on a p2, i use winxp on a amd (3600+) system
[04:14] <soundray> Gfather: look at the nameserver lines in /etc/resolv.conf -- can you ping those addresses?
[04:14] <wiz> carthik, I know there's a card, I use it in windows... it doesn't display a vendor name there either... let me keep researching.
[04:14] <bulmer> cribbzter: no such dir E: in linux
[04:14] <w-mute> Is there any textbook method to setup a DSL router with Ubuntu?
[04:14] <Gfather> i can try
[04:14] <jrib> phixnay: change "phixnay" to whatever your username is of course
[04:14] <ardchoille> phixnay: Open a terminal and type: ps aux | grep cron
[04:14] <bulmer> cribbzter: tar xvzf filename.tar.gz
[04:14] <Gfather> im really new to ubuntu
[04:14] <jrib> ardchoille: fwiw, that zenity command failed here too
[04:14] <Antonio_Carlos_M> so can u help me
[04:14] <Gfather> what do i have to type?
[04:14] <cribbzter> bulmer no such filename or directory bla bla bla
[04:14] <Antonio_Carlos_M> i use WinFast
[04:14] <ardchoille> jrib: Ah, that may explain his failure. Thanks.
[04:14] <Gfather> in winxp i use the automatic settings :P
[04:15] <bulmer> Gfather: while you are new, absorb and learn unix via its slowness...hehehe
[04:15] <soundray> Gfather: okay, let's do it in #ubuntu-classroom
[04:15] <Gfather> hahaha Bubble :)
[04:15] <Gfather> ok ty soundray
[04:15] <bulmer> cribbzter: the filename.tar.gz is the tar ball you downloaded from the broadcom site
[04:15] <Wooksta> http://pastebin.ca/371657 <--- i'm getting the following errors when tryiing to complie rainbowcrack, can anyone help?
[04:15] <cribbzter> bulmer yes i have the tar laying on my desktop

[04:16] <woland> hi all
[04:16] <bulmer> brb i need my coffee
[04:17] <jrib> mahatma: have you contacted the makers of hansaworld?  If you're paying for this app, they should provide support
[04:17] <woland> how do I manage the system $PATH?
[04:17] <mahatma> jrib: yeah, I know, but they only provide support for KDE; where the app works
[04:17] <w-mute> woland: PATH is defined in /etc/bashrc or /etc/profile
[04:17] <w-mute> woland: take a look at man bash
[04:17] <ardchoille> phixnay: Did you save the new crontab before seeing if it ran?
[04:18] <jrib> woland: system-wide, $PATH is set in /etc/environment
[04:18] <wiz> carthik, ok found it in windows: it's listed as prism2 wirelss lan usb card... must be usb inside the case
[04:18] <cribbzter> bulmer how do i cd to the desktop?
[04:18] <jrib> mahatma: so on edgy, kde this app works fine?
[04:18] <yharrow_> did you know that out the entire 1013 users there is not one op?
[04:18] <mahatma> jrib: I don't know, but they tell me that under KDE, it works
[04:19] <phixnay> archoille: I closed the crontab that you gave me and id didn't work. I haven't tested jrib's yet
[04:19] <IndyGunFreak> yharrow_: why does that bother you?
[04:19] <yharrow_> indy, Im musing :)
[04:19] <bulmer> yharrow_: do bad thing and they will swarm to kick you...lolz
[04:19] <yharrow_> hehe
[04:19] <setanta> ubuntu-fr
[04:19] <vrkhans> can any one help in
[04:19] <yharrow_> bulmer, I beleive you
[04:19] <ardchoille> phixnay: Well, jrib said the command I gave didn't work for him either.. so, it wasn't a good test.
[04:19] <vrkhans> i am really frustrated with ubuntu
[04:20] <bulmer> cribbzter: do this   cd ~/Desktop
[04:20] <vrkhans> it gives me error second time , i followed exactly as the description
[04:20] <lakcaj> I'm having redraw issues with the radeon driver on an up to date feisty install.  Anyone else experiencing this?  Suggestions?
[04:20] <yharrow_> bulmer, the ops prolly have ppl in here who have there email/chat address and watch the chat for them
[04:20] <carthik> wiz, try <http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-31418.html%22***%3C/blockquote%3E%3C/t-4041.html>
[04:20] <cyber_brain_mfkg> what can i use to write and compile terminal programs???what IDE you recommend?
[04:20] <bulmer> vrkhans: you lost any hair yet? hehehe
[04:20] <phixnay> ardchoille, jrib: I'm testing this one now:$ sudo crontab -l
[04:20] <phixnay> # m h  dom mon dow   command
[04:20] <phixnay> * * * * * /home/phix/cron_is_working
[04:20] <jrib> mahatma: see if it does work on edgy's kde.  That would at least narrow down the problem
[04:20] <jrib> phixnay: ok so after 2 minutes, see if /home/phix/cron_is_working exists
[04:20] <gn> Morning
[04:21] <lakcaj> cyber_brain_mfkg, compile terminal programs?  Written in what - bash/c/c++/java/mono?
[04:21] <cribbzter> bulmer no such file or directory
[04:21] <cyber_brain_mfkg> c
[04:21] <ardchoille> jrib: His crontab isn't going to work, I don't think. He needs to *do* something with that file.
[04:21] <bulmer> cribbzter:  i thought you said its in your Desktop?
[04:21] <cyber_brain_mfkg> lakcaj, c/c++
[04:22] <cribbzter> r
[04:22] <jrib> ardchoille: yeah you're right.  phixnay 'touch /home/phix/cron_is_working' is the full command
[04:22] <cribbzter> bulmer it is
[04:22] <cribbzter> but when i use dir it says Dekstop Examples
[04:22] <gn> This has probably been asked a million times - is it possible to get a webcam working in Ubuntu Edgy?
[04:22] <lakcaj> cyber_brain_mfkg, I know people like eclipse, jedit, etc
[04:22] <jrib> !webcam | gn
[04:22] <ubotu> gn: Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras
[04:22] <bulmer> cribbzter: btw..cd means change directory
[04:22] <phixnay> ardchoille, jrib, got it, testing that one
[04:22] <cribbzter> bulmer yes i know that from DOS :D
[04:22] <mahatma> jrib: I guess, but I'll probably just try to update to feisty another day; there must be something broken in the upgrade path; thank you for the help, in any case;)
[04:23] <cribbzter> bulmer i have the files on my desktop but cant get to it?
[04:23] <cribbzter> bulmer i use dir
[04:23] <bulmer> cribbzter: you sure you typed cd not ls ?
[04:23] <jrib> mahatma: ok.  you are better off dist-upgrading to feisty probably
[04:23] <gn> Thank you will check it out - I am so close to dumping windoze
[04:23] <cribbzter> bulmer yes cd
[04:23] <phixnay> jrib, archoille, * * * * * touch /home/phix/cron_is_working

[04:25] <vrkhans> i dont know why

[04:25] <cribbzter> bulmer Bash: cd: /home/cribbzter/desktop no such file or directory!!!
[04:25] <jrib> phixnay: ok then cron is working.  What did you say you were trying to do before that wasn't working?
[04:25] <gn> You guys are awesome - thanks again
[04:25] <phixnay> jrib: I was trying to make it 'halt' at 1 am each day
[04:25] <bulmer> cribbzter: capital D
[04:26] <jrib> phixnay: did you use root's crontab?
[04:26] <cribbzter> bulmer lol :D
[04:26] <cribbzter> bulmer yeah now
[04:26] <phixnay> yes, "sudo crontab -e"
[04:26] <lakcaj> cyber_brain_mfkg, have you tried anjunta?
[04:26] <cribbzter> bulmer so what do i type now then :D
[04:26] <Tseligas> hi everyone
[04:26] <bulmer> phixnay: halt? you mean shutdown? halt is severe..
[04:26] <lakcaj> anjuta even :)
[04:26] <vrkhans> can any one help me
[04:26] <vrkhans> problem in installing ubuntu
[04:26] <bulmer> cribbzter: tar xvzf filename.tar.gz
[04:26] <phixnay> bulmer: I thought 'halt' and 'shutdown -h now' were the same thing
[04:26] <IndyGunFreak> vrkhans: jus tstate your question
[04:27] <cyber_brain_mfkg> bulmer, uh... is there something like: i'm typeing program...after i finish i go compile/build/execute and it shows me terminal with program???
[04:27] <IndyGunFreak> !someone
[04:27] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:27] <Tseligas> ubuntu is realy great
[04:27] <vrkhans> ubotu: i have a serious problem
[04:27] <bulmer> phixnay: not the way i know it..shutdown is much nicer..does some clean ups
[04:27] <IndyGunFreak> vrkhans: then state it
[04:27] <vrkhans> i wont able to boot my liunx
[04:27] <ikonia> vrkhans: what is the error
[04:27] <phixnay> bulmer: ok, I'll do shutdown from now on
[04:27] <cribbzter> bulmer yes and then?
[04:28] <Tseligas> but they seem to shift condition by themshelve
[04:28] <IndyGunFreak> vrkhans: you can't boot the CD/DVD, or you can't boot one you've already installed
[04:28] <phixnay> bulmer: btw, what is the difference between -P and -h
[04:28] <bulmer> cyber_brain_mfkg: you're confusing Eclipse ide with java and C..am not sure of IDE's for C..but you can make a Makefile
[04:28] <emet> is there any version of ubuntu that will run on my toaster oven?
[04:28] <bulmer> cribbzter: tar xvzf filename.tar.gz  <-- to untar
[04:28] <lakcaj> cyber_brain_mfkg, have you tried anjuta?
[04:28] <phixnay> bulmer: the man page says that -h lets the system choose whether to halt or power down, and -P makes it powerdown
[04:28] <IndyGunFreak> emet: lol.. that would be KitchenBuntu 9.04
[04:28] <Tseligas> lol emet
[04:28] <cribbzter> bulmer and to install?
[04:29] <bulmer> cribbzter: identify which one is the driver first
[04:29] <cribbzter> bulmer how do i do that?
[04:29] <cyber_brain_mfkg> lakcaj, moths ago but it wasn't work as it should!think i'll try it again
[04:29] <cyber_brain_mfkg> *months
[04:29] <Morrissey> Hi. On Amarok, Artwork seems so random if its worked. About two releases ago I didnt get covers on my ipod, but I did after a upgrade. Now I upgraded again, and it doesnt work ...
[04:29] <bulmer> phixnay: you can verify what i say, google for shutdown versus halt
[04:29] <ikonia> cribbzter: if you don't know what you are doing you shouldn't be attempted to compile applications from source - it can mess your system up
[04:29] <ikonia> bulmer: they are both the same
[04:30] <ikonia> in essence
[04:30] <bulmer> ikonia: he is not compiling he is just loading a driver
[04:30] <phixnay> bulmer: I believe you, I just don't know the difference between shutdown -h and shutdown -P
[04:30] <vrkhans> ikonia: when i boot first my linux boot partition is not set , so in gurb i did ":e" to edit the command and correct it but then i it tries to boot i see the ubuntu logo also then it disapear and i got this error : busy box v1.1.3(debian 1:1.13-2ubuntu3 bu<
[04:30] <Tseligas> i would like to know if anyone had mplayer sound problems
[04:30] <wiz> carthik, the livecd doesn't have the wlanctl-ng tool so I can't try this post's suggestion... should I just install off the cd and setup ndiswrapper with the windows driver I've got?

[04:35] <ikonia> vrkhans: I think your grub config has the wrong data in it
[04:35] <phixnay> jrib, ardchoille, maybe I don't have to use cron at all
[04:35] <Agiofws> this so so stupid

[04:36] <ikonia> IndyGunFreak: he won't tell me what his setup is - so I can't give him the exact data
[04:36] <vrkhans> by booting the system
[04:36] <ikonia> IndyGunFreak: so thats the best I can offer
[04:36] <IndyGunFreak> iknoia, i gave up hours ago...lol
[04:36] <ikonia> IndyGunFreak: he's going on ignore shortly
[04:36] <texas_john> zelevw: is apache running?
[04:36] <phixnay> jrib, ardchoille, I can just do "shutdown -P 1:00" and it will shut down at 1 am right?
[04:36] <IndyGunFreak> ikonia: i think he's a troll
[04:36] <Tseligas> is there a channel for mplayer?
[04:36] <lakcaj> zelevw, you'd have better luck in #apache
[04:37] <amar> can anyone help me to write into FAT32 ?
[04:37] <ikonia> IndyGunFreak: nah
[04:37] <lakcaj> Tseligas, #mplayer?
[04:37] <zelevw> texas_john: yessir...i can see index.html via my browser and the styling from css
[04:37] <ikonia> amar mount the partition and write to it

[04:37] <leon> i can you hollands
[04:37] <Tseligas> well lakcaj indeed ;)
[04:37] <lakcaj> ;)
[04:37] <ikonia> amar whats the error on write
[04:38] <pleed> someone wo has got a ipw3945 running under edgy? when i load module ipw3945 i get the error "unkown symbol in module" . when i see dmesg there are errors like "unknown symbol ieee80211..." . dont know what to do
[04:38] <ardchoille> phixnay: Nevermind, stick to what jrib suggests.
[04:38] <bulmer> phixnay: that will not do...use cron as everyone has suggested
[04:38] <amar> ikonia: " don't have permission"
[04:38] <leon> you  bulmer
[04:38] <ikonia> pleed: sounds like the module is for the wrong kernel
[04:38] <zmaster> where can i get drivers for my cannon IP Pixma 3000
[04:38] <ikonia> amar change the permissions
[04:38] <phixnay> jrib: what is the difference between halt and power off? bulmer: what command do I tell cron to do?
[04:38] <ikonia> zmaster: cannon has poor support
[04:38] <amar> ikonia: " don't have permission to write into dis folder"
[04:38] <IdleOne> zmaster, you cant
[04:38] <pleed> so what shall i do? ikonia
[04:38] <jrib> phixnay: I don't know
[04:38] <ikonia> amar change the permissions
[04:38] <ikonia> pleed: where did you get the driver
[04:39] <IdleOne> zmaster, canon does not supply linux drivers...you can ask them to but they wont
[04:39] <texas_john> amar: type man chmod for more information
[04:39] <pleed> was a deb packet
[04:39] <zmaster> so im stuck with crap color printing and great black and white printing
[04:39] <bulmer> phixnay: man cron  and see the samples there .or google for sample cron entries
[04:39] <amar> !chmod
[04:39] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[04:39] <ikonia> pleed: for ubuntu or debian - and where did you get it
[04:39] <IdleOne> zmaster, google turbolinux it is not free but it will make your canon printer work
[04:39] <zmaster> my color print is all distorted and is mixed with different colors and the text gets all cut off
[04:39] <zmaster> ok il try that
[04:39] <amar> texas: i will try
[04:40] <zmaster> but is tnhere no other free alternative
[04:40] <walrus> what is the best gui svn client for ubuntu ppl??
[04:40] <ikonia> zmaster: no
[04:40] <IdleOne> zmaster, nope :/
[04:40] <ikonia> walrus: thats personal opinion - try them see what you like
[04:40] <AlexC_> Hi hi
[04:40] <pleed> ikonia: from packages.debian.org
[04:40] <walrus> ikonia, but give me some options to try =) ...
[04:41] <zmaster> ah well
[04:41] <ikonia> pleed: thats for "debian" this is "ubuntu"
[04:41] <texas_john> walrus: rapidsvn
[04:41] <phixnay> does anybody know the right way to turn off a computer from the terminal?
[04:41] <ikonia> walrus: just google
[04:41] <walrus> ok ..
[04:41] <pleed> ikonia: arent they compatible?
[04:41] <erUSUL> phixnay: man shutdown
[04:41] <texas_john> phixnay: sudo halt
[04:41] <lakcaj> phixnay, shutdown -h now
[04:41] <ikonia> pleed: no - thats debian - this is ubuntu
[04:41] <socialdisorder> can anyone tell where i could get Automatix from? The getautomatix site isn't working
[04:41] <zmaster> IdleOne: do you own a psp since im having problems ecoding vids for it, i use ffmpeg and it works fine for all resolutions besides 480x272 (i want 480x272) since in windows i can do it and thats the highest res the psp supports so it looks sweet
[04:41] <ikonia> socialdisorder: no - but I can tell you don't use automatrix
[04:41] <pleed> ok thanks a lot ikonia
[04:41] <phixnay> lakcaj: what's the difference between -h and -P?
[04:41] <erUSUL> !automatix | socialdisorder
[04:41] <ubotu> socialdisorder: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[04:42] <IdleOne> zmaster, sorry I dont but Im sure there is someone in here who could probably help you
[04:42] <ikonia> !goodbotuse > erusul
[04:42] <texas_john> socialdisorder: try easyubuntu
[04:42] <lakcaj> phixnay, man shutdown
[04:42] <zmaster> IdleOne: thanks
[04:42] <lakcaj> phixnay, it's all in there... the system choice will be to shut off the computer, but you can use whatever you want
[04:42] <socialdisorder> thanks
[04:42] <phixnay> lakcaj: I already read that, I just don't understand the difference between halt and power off
[04:43] <zmaster> m having problems ecoding vids for psp, i use ffmpeg and it works fine for all resolutions besides 480x272 (i want 480x272) since in windows i can do it and thats the highest res the psp supports so it looks sweet
[04:43] <erUSUL> ikonia: i stand corrected, thak you
[04:43] <Hoxxin> its only 17:40 im gonna go in the shower
[04:43] <ikonia> erUSUL: it wasn't a "hey" it was an "fyi"
[04:43] <Hoxxin> ooops sorry wrong chan :P
[04:43] <leopartux> hi  i have just installed ubuntu how can i install turkish language support
[04:43] <ikonia> erUSUL: hope that didn't come across pushy
[04:43] <lakcaj> phixnay, I believe you can make the system shutdown, but not actually power down
[04:43] <phixnay> lakcaj: so the system always chooses power off with -h?
[04:43] <phixnay> ok, got it
[04:43] <lakcaj> phixnay, yes, by default
[04:43] <pleed> ikonia: do you know where i can download ubuntu packages?
[04:43] <ikonia> pleed: the ubuntu repo's
[04:43] <AlexC_> pleed: packages.ubuntu.com
[04:43] <Tseligas> ikonia: when you run mplayer along with other sound apps does the sound work?
[04:43] <lakcaj> pleed, why do you need to download packages?
[04:44] <fortitUs> hey.. does ubuntu have better driver support than fedoracore?
[04:44] <ikonia> Tseligas: yup
[04:44] <ikonia> fortitUs: thats a matter of opinion
[04:44] <phixnay> lakcaj: so to turn off the computer at 10:46 am I would do "sudo shutdown -h 10:46"
[04:44] <IndyGunFreak> fortitUs: in my experience, yes it does
[04:44] <AlexC_> pleed: but you use apt-get or Synaptic to download packages anyway
[04:44] <ikonia> fortitUs: just remember they both use the same kernels
[04:44] <Tseligas> even if u start it second in row?
[04:44] <pleed> lakcaj: i get an error when i build the ipw driver so i tried packages
[04:44] <bulmer> leopartux: you did not select your turkish cyrillic at install time? maybe you need to re-install again?
[04:44] <lakcaj> pleed, I see
[04:44] <ikonia> Tseligas: yup
[04:44] <Tseligas> shit
[04:44] <ikonia> Tseligas: What was the need for the bad lanaguage
[04:45] <leopartux> it was asked but i did not chose it
[04:45] <lakcaj> phixnay, I believe so, yes
[04:45] <ikonia> Tseligas: that was totally un called for
[04:45] <zmaster> what ffmpeg command line do you use to convert psp video for 480x272 and that actually works on psp
[04:45] <AlexC_> !language | Tseligas
[04:45] <ubotu> Tseligas: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[04:45] <texas_john> tseligas: hey there, watch your language, would'ya?
[04:45] <erUSUL> ikonia: i understand it correctly but english is not my mother tongue i'm spanish maybe the phrase 'i stand corrected' is not the one i should have used... ;)
[04:45] <phixnay> lakcaj:cool
[04:45] <ikonia> erUSUL: not at all, just wanted to make sure I didn't offend
[04:45] <leon> dbfjemnd
[04:45] <AlexC_> pleed: use Synaptic, (System->Admin->Synaptic) to install software packages
[04:45] <leon> ubuntu
[04:45] <ikonia> leon:  what about it ?
[04:46] <Tseligas> i am stuck so many hours in front of the computer trying to fix that that it came naturaly ->like talking loud ->typing public
[04:46] <pleed> AlexC_: thanks but i dont have ipw3945 / firmware in my repository
[04:46] <ikonia> Tseligas: no excuse
[04:46] <leon> fock ben to leet
[04:46] <phixnay> lakcaj: I'm going to test a cron job that runs at 10:50 and shuts the computer down at 10:51
[04:46] <adaptr> heh
[04:46] <Tseligas> well there is one
[04:46] <AlexC_> pleed: then it wont be in packages.ubuntu.com either, as that is what Synaptic/apt-get use. Have you enabled the extra repositories? https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/extra-repositories.html
[04:47] <lakcaj> phixnay, cool, if I see you quit this channel at 10:51 then it must have worked :)
[04:47] <phixnay> lakcaj:does this look correct? # m h  dom mon dow   command
[04:47] <phixnay> 50 10 * * * shutdown -h 10:51
[04:47] <very`tired> how do i create a shortcut in ubuntu? (from command line)
[04:47] <ikonia> Tseligas: there isn't - just say sorry and try not to use bad lanaguage again
[04:47] <lakcaj> phixnay, I haven't played with cron in some time, sorry
[04:47] <fredl> hi guys, I'm trying to mount an .iso file but it says 'mount: Not a directory' when I type mount -o loop /mnt/pal-lsw2.iso /tmp/bla
[04:47] <IndyGunFreak> very`tired: why dont' you just use the gui?
[04:47] <phixnay> lakcaj: ok
[04:47] <AlexC_> very`tired: Linux uses System Links, so you do "ln -s /directory/from /directory/to"
[04:47] <leopartux> i open add remove applications and search for language
[04:47] <Sasa> Hi All...I have a newbie question that has been bothering me for a while: what programming language is Linux written in? What programming language are applications that can be downloaded through synaptic written in? I know Java is supported, but could there be others?
[04:47] <very`tired> k thx
[04:47] <texas_john> phixnay: your job needs to have root rights
[04:47] <phixnay> !ln
[04:47] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Manuals: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[04:47] <lakcaj> fredl, did you create the /tmp/bla directory?
[04:47] <leopartux> i found languagu support
[04:47] <texas_john> sasa: c
[04:47] <fredl> lakcaj, yes I did, it's there.
[04:47] <Tseligas> you are serious ? If yes sry if not u got me
[04:47] <ikonia> Sasa: the kernel is C - the rest is different languages
[04:48] <pleed> AlexC_: dont know i ll look
[04:48] <leopartux> will i install this one ?
[04:48] <ikonia> Tseligas: yes, I'm serious. I found your bad language uncalled for
[04:48] <phixnay> texas_jon: yes, I'm using the root cron (sudo crontab -e)
[04:48] <AlexC_> Sasa: Kernel is pure C, programs in the repositores (that you get via Synaptic) can be in any language
[04:48] <Sasa> thank you very much...
[04:49] <Sasa> except for Java and C, what other environments are supported for programming in Linux
[04:49] <david_> Using ubuntu how would i use konqueror as a replacement for nautilus?
[04:49] <erUSUL> Sasa: C is very widely used in open source but for example kde is written in c++
[04:49] <fredl> lakcaj, it says: root@positron:/tmp# mount -o loop /mnt/pal-lsw2.iso /tmp/bla
[04:49] <fredl> mount: Not a directory
[04:49] <AlexC_> Sasa: #ubuntu-offtopic #linux
[04:49] <pleed> AlexC_: well i have them. so i have to build it all myself
[04:49] <texas_john> sasa: you can easily download the sources with apt-get source programname to see what it's written in
[04:49] <fredl> lakcaj, it's definitely an iso file: /mnt/pal-lsw2.iso: ISO 9660 CD-ROM filesystem data
[04:50] <Tseligas> i was just trying to make fun of it  dont be so harsh
[04:50] <lakcaj> fredl, what about mount -o loop -t iso9660 /mnt/pal-lsw2.iso /tmp/bla
[04:50] <lakcaj> fredl, and can you cd into the /tmp/bla directory?
[04:50] <fredl> lakcaj, same error message
[04:50] <fredl> lakcaj, yes I can
[04:50] <ciberboy> cos

[04:51] <tenco> soundray: system works with debian :)
[04:51] <lakcaj> fredl, is this all on the same drive/partition?
[04:51] <tenco> soundray: then it will be a debian-route :)
[04:51] <fredl> lakcaj, yup it is.
[04:51] <jrib> fredl: what about  file /tmp/bla
[04:51] <rdz> !screencapture
[04:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about screencapture - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:51] <phixnay> lakcaj: it's 10:51 and I'm not shut down
[04:51] <Tseligas> is there any app similar to task manager in windows?
[04:51] <AlexC_> rdz: what you trying to do?
[04:51] <Lunar_Lamp> How can I tunnel traffic so that I can use Azureus behind a proxy?
[04:51] <phixnay> lakcaj: I tested cron and I know it's working
[04:51] <leopartux> the installation of language support asked for ubuntu cd

[04:51] <david_> Using ubuntu how would i use konqueror as a replacement for nautilus?
[04:51] <ardchoille> Tseligas: gnome-system-monitor
[04:51] <fredl> jrb, what do you mean?
[04:52] <AlexC_> Tseligas: System->Admin->System Monitor
[04:52] <soundray> tenco: that's good

[04:52] <jrib> fredl: the command:  file /tmp/bla

[04:52] <rdz> AlexC_, what command is ubuntu using when pressing alt + print screen
[04:52] <fredl> jrib, lakcaj I can mount another iso that way, perhaps the difference is that pal-lsw2.iso is LARGE
[04:52] <phixnay> sudo: mutt: command not found
[04:52] <ardchoille> phixnay: Did you install mutt?
[04:53] <ikonia> phixnay: install mutt
[04:53] <phixnay> ardchoille: no. what is mutt?
[04:53] <ardchoille> !mutt
[04:53] <ubotu> mutt: text-based mailreader supporting MIME, GPG, PGP and threading. In component main, is optional. Version 1.5.12-1ubuntu1.1 (edgy), package size 990 kB, installed size 4952 kB

[04:53] <arpith> hi where can i download and install qbasic for ubuntu?
[04:53] <senki> Chanels #Bluetorrent no sympatish
[04:53] <ikonia> phixnay: how do you expect the command "mutt" to work if you've not installed it
[04:53] <Tsool> Hiya folks. I'm trying to connect to my wireless network from the live cd-bootup. My network is hidden and encrypted with a 128bit wep-key. Linux finds the network adapter, but when I try to enter the key I can only enter so many hex-digits, and, naturally, the connection fails. How can I reach my network from the livecd? *Without* changing the encryption level.
[04:53] <fredl> does -o loop have a maximum size?
[04:53] <ikonia> arpith: qbasic is a microsoft product
[04:53] <texas_john> arpith: use freebasic
[04:53] <phixnay> ikonia: it might have been preinstalled
[04:53] <senki> van itt magyar??
[04:53] <_pb> ubotu; what is mutt
[04:53] <phixnay> ikonia: like you don't have to install "ls" to use it
[04:53] <GazzaF> I have two computers, one XP and one ubuntu. Both use a router to connect to the internet. I have managed to get both online using the same IP address 192.168.1.48, however, once one is connected the other cannot. Is this because they are sharing the same IP address?
[04:54] <senki> szal nincsen?
[04:54] <ardchoille> arpith: You might be interested in RealBasi, FreeBasic or gambas.
[04:54] <leopartux> which program are you using for irc
[04:54] <ikonia> phixnay: read the basic docs and you'll get an idea what your doing - its much better than asking questions like that in here
[04:54] <senki> mert akkor mek
[04:54] <AlexC_> GazzaF:every PC must have a unique IP
[04:54] <senki> quit
[04:54] <lakcaj> GazzaF, yes
[04:54] <GazzaF> okay
[04:54] <erUSUL> GazzaF: sure, whay are you using the same ip for both? it makes no sense
[04:54] <GazzaF> how do i set up two different IPS?
[04:54] <GazzaF> Ips *
[04:54] <AlexC_> GazzaF: just change it ... System->Admin->Networking
[04:55] <lakcaj> GazzaF, have the router assign IPs using DHCP
[04:55] <phixnay> jrib: it's asking me to configure postfix...
[04:55] <GazzaF> DHCP does not work for me
[04:55] <AlexC_> GazzaF: then make it static
[04:55] <jrib> phixnay: configure it for local mail on your system only
[04:55] <phixnay> ok
[04:55] <phixnay> mail name?
[04:55] <erUSUL> and whyu dose dhcp assing the same ip to two different computers?
[04:55] <zmaster> what ffmpeg command line do you use to convert psp video for 480x272 and that actually works on psp
[04:55] <zmaster> what ffmpeg command line do you use to convert psp video for 480x272 and that actually works on psp
[04:56] <ikonia> zmaster: ask once
[04:56] <jrib> phixnay: whatever you want
[04:56] <phixnay> jrib: you mean I can just leave it as the default "localhost" ?
[04:56] <jrib> phixnay: sure
[04:57] <fredl> so nobody knows how to mount my .iso? :/
[04:57] <zmaster> ikonia: my bad
[04:57] <ikonia> fred man mount
[04:57] <ikonia> fredl: man mount
[04:57] <GazzaF> i can make one static, however, since i only know one working IP address I can only do this with one computer, say the linux box. How can I make both IPs static?
[04:57] <soundray> !iso | fredl
[04:57] <ubotu> fredl: 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
[04:57] <adaptr> fredl: loop mount, man mount for details
[04:58] <fredl> ikonia, I know that, mount -o loop /file.iso /mnt
[04:58] <leopartux> does ubuntu cache the packages? or will i download them again
[04:58] <fredl> problem is that it doesnt WORK :)
[04:58] <ikonia> leopartux: download them
[04:58] <texas_john> fredl: you might try -t udf
[04:58] <AlexC_> GazzaF: you router would have set up an IP range that can be used. So say if it issued the range 192.168.1.2 -> 192.168.1.200 then you can use any IP in that range.
[04:58] <erUSUL> leopartux: /var/cache/apt/archives/
[04:58] <phixnay> jrib: mutt says mail does not exist. create it?
[04:58] <fredl> texas_john, I tried that too but it gives me a funky error
[04:58] <phixnay> jrib, nvm\
[04:58] <jrib> phixnay: sure.  But you may need to have the cron job fail again for it to resend the mail
[04:59] <withaY> anyone know why sites/pages with a fair amount of ajax-ified javascript run SO slow in firefox?
[04:59] <fredl> texas_john, it says in syslog: [17382886.520000]  UDF-fs: No VRS found
[04:59] <phixnay> jrib: ok
[04:59] <CarloX> ending is near!
[04:59] <CarloX> where are you?
[04:59] <GazzaF> AlexC_: how do i find out this range that the router set up?
[04:59] <soundray> withaY: do you have a sample URL handy?
[04:59] <AlexC_> GazzaF: connect to you're router via a browser and go to the IP address of the router, then go through the settings - but you shouldn't have to really
[04:59] <phixnay> jrib: I think mutt is configed wrong: it says 'no mailbox'
[04:59] <AlexC_> GazzaF: it would have automatically set a big range
[04:59] <CarloX> where are you?
[04:59] <ikonia> CarloX: this is ubuntu support - not phylosiphy
[05:00] <CarloX> i'm here
[05:00] <CarloX> LOL ikonia
[05:00] <AlexC_> CarloX: What are you on about?
[05:00] <CarloX> :)
[05:00] <ikonia> CarloX: do you have an ubuntu question yes / no
[05:00] <CarloX> not nothing
[05:00] <leopartux> Erusul there are 175 packages
[05:00] <jrib> phixnay: that's ok, just means you don't have any mail
[05:00] <CarloX> sorry
[05:00] <withaY> soundray:  i'll find one that doesn't require a login.  give me a second.
[05:00] <mahatma> jrib: I see in the terminal, when getting that message: authenticate '/tmp/tmpA_x7bp/feisty.tar.gz' against '/tmp/tmpA_x7bp/feisty.tar.gz.gpg'
[05:00] <mahatma> exception from gpg: GnuPG exited non-zero, with code 131072, so I guess they forgot to update the gpg file
[05:00] <CarloX> i'm only joking
[05:00] <CarloX> sorry

[05:00] <phixnay> jrib: I'll try cron again
[05:01] <mahatma> AlexC_: well, it was only two lines;)
[05:01] <leopartux> does this mean that i downlaod them from internet or ....
[05:01] <ikonia> leopartux: yes
[05:01] <jrib> mahatma: might be
[05:01] <fredl> well I guess I'm just going to have to burn it...
[05:01] <Cribbzter> anyone know how i can get ndiswrapper?
[05:01] <ikonia> Cribbzter: the ubuntu repo's
[05:01] <AlexC_> !ndiswrapper
[05:01] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:01] <phixnay> jrib: cron line now is   "03 11 * * * shutdown -h 11:04"
[05:02] <Cribbzter> ikonia ?? what is that?
[05:02] <leopartux> then i think that they are all dependencies
[05:02] <AlexC_> Cribbzter: https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/extra-repositories.html
[05:02] <Cribbzter> !ndiswrapper

[05:02] <ikonia> Cribbzter: that info is still on screen

[05:03] <Tsool> Hiya folks. I'm trying to connect to my wireless network from the live cd-bootup. My network is hidden and encrypted with a 128bit wep-key, but the live-cd only accepts a 64-bit key.How can I reach my network from the livecd? *Without* changing the encryption level.
[05:03] <tkcom> ouch
[05:03] <ikonia> Tsool: check if your network card supports 128bit under linux
[05:03] <ikonia> tkcom: what ?
[05:04] <Lunar_Lamp> I am getting errors when I start azureus. It crashes on starting: http://www.pastebin.it/index.php?id=2935
[05:04] <withaY> soundray:  do you happen to have a google account?  a perfect example are google docs & spreadsheets.  sorry, i can't think of others offhand.
[05:04] <Tsool> ikonia: It does, under windows. Would you know where I check it for linux?
[05:04] <phixnay> jrib: k, nothing happened. should I do sudo mutt now?
[05:04] <ikonia> Tsool: the product documention
[05:04] <jrib> phixnay: yes
[05:04] <soundray> Gfather: thanks, it could be a nice solution if it worked (even if it's a bit on the expensive side)
[05:04] <Tsool> ikonia: That's a good one ;) - when did any documentation come with anything 'bout linux?!
[05:05] <soundray> withaY: how do Google maps work for you - do you get the problem with those?
[05:05] <phixnay> jrib: /var/mail/root no such directory
[05:05] <amar> i tried to change the permissions to volume using the following commands:
[05:05] <Gfather> soundray: I already use those
[05:05] <ikonia> Tsool: its all over the internet
[05:05] <phixnay> jrib: should I mkdir?
[05:05] <jrib> phixnay: ok, to make sure mail would get delivered if a command failed.  Try the cronjob:  * * * * * oiadfjsisduhfaisudoh
[05:05] <soundray> Gfather: I know, that's why I said "if it worked" ;)
[05:05] <amar>  i tried to change the permissions to volume using the following commands:
[05:05] <Cribbzter> well i dont actually understand how i can get ndiswrapper and support is lacking i think im a n00b
[05:05] <amar> user@host:/home/user$ sudo umount /dev/xxxx
[05:06] <Tsool> ikonia: Yeah, I know how to use google - I just thought that there might be some gathered, central source.
[05:06] <amar> user@host:/home/user$ sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab_backup1
[05:06] <ikonia> Tsool: not tha tI'm aware of

[05:06] <`Jessie> I have a HP Pavilion dv6245us notebook.... apparently all the audio devices but the builtin speakers are on another audio device. How do I set this up so I can use them?
[05:07] <Tsool> ikonia: I won't hold you responsible, nor sue you. Have no fear!
[05:07] <tkcom> is there any other way to lock the screen's gamma setting without having to launch nvidia-settings every bootup?
[05:07] <phixnay> jrib: k, installed crontab, waiting for minute to change
[05:07] <Morrissey> In Amarok, Is there a way to update all the covers on my iPod without have to delete all songs just to let them in again?
[05:07] <zmaster> can any one help me encode a psp video at 480x272
[05:07] <withaY> soundray:  you know those newer photo galleries that people are using where you click on a pic, it causes the page to fade to dark and you have a zoomed image of the photo you clicked on top?  those are REALLY slow.
[05:07] <soundray> withaY: once the different map levels are cached, I can zoom in and out within a fraction of a second.
[05:08] <Phasor> I've just used ntfsresize to resize my 200GiB partition to 130GiB and it said something about using fdisk. Does anyone know what I should do now in order to make the 70GiB usable as a partition to install Ubuntu onto?
[05:08] <neo_> someone?
[05:08] <phixnay> jrib: minute changed, checking mutt
[05:08] <neo_> !obuntu
[05:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about obuntu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:08] <neo_> !0buntu
[05:08] <Tsool> While I'm slacking here I might as well ask another question. Is anybody here listening to FM radio with your PC, using Ubuntu? If so, what hardware are you using?
[05:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about 0buntu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:08] <AlexC_> !someone | neo_
[05:08] <ubotu> neo_: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[05:08] <ikonia> neo_: whats the problem
[05:08] <neo_> ikonia i have an problem
[05:08] <ikonia> neo_: what is it
[05:08] <sebas891> hi, anyone knows a package that could monitor a ssh tunnel and make sure it is always running ?
[05:08] <AlexC_> ><
[05:08] <neo_> i will edit something but i cant edit it because it is of "root"
[05:09] <ikonia> sebas891: ps is probably easy - or netstat
[05:09] <ikonia> neo_: use sudo
[05:09] <neo_> whats the command to make it mijnes?
[05:09] <AlexC_> !sudo | neo_
[05:09] <phixnay> jrib still says 'no mailbox' /var/mail/root: no such file or dirctory
[05:09] <ubotu> neo_: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:09] <neo_> yes but what command?
[05:09] <ikonia> !goodbotuse >alexc
[05:09] <fredl> hmm, I think my .iso is an XDVDFS (XBOX), anybody know how to mount this under Linux?
[05:09] <soundray> withaY: I haven't seen an AJAX-based one of those yet
[05:09] <ikonia> neo_: sudo
[05:09] <neo_> to change the edit rightsd
[05:09] <AlexC_> neo_: read the links in that message above
[05:09] <ikonia> neo_: sudo for the last time
[05:09] <neo_> i wanna edit an file
[05:09] <jrib> phixnay: ok, let me try this
[05:09] <soundray> withaY: but since maps are slow for you, too, I think we've found a test case.
[05:09] <neo_> oki
[05:09] <socialdisorder> does anyone know if you can get itunes to work in Ubuntu?
[05:09] <AlexC_> ikonia: ? that did nothing....
[05:09] <task0> hello all, how do i regenerate the fstab??
[05:09] <knight> which is the good peer to peer searching and downloading software in ubuntu?
[05:09] <fazed> hey i have been having a problem with machine hangs when logging out of X (Nvidia binary drivers, no berly etc) and i found a work around. but dont understand why it works, can anyone help me?
[05:09] <soundray> withaY: have you tried another browser, e.g. epiphany?
[05:09] <ikonia> neo_: AlexC_didn't it - hang on
[05:10] <ikonia> !goodbotuse >alexc_
[05:10] <ikonia> AlexC_: any better ?
[05:10] <ardchoille> neo_: you don't want to be chaning perms on system files unless absolutely necessary. It's better to edit files with sudo
[05:10] <tkcom> socialdisorder:would it run under wine?
[05:10] <ikonia> task0: you re-type it
[05:10] <jrib> phixnay: oh, do 'mutt' without sudo.  root's mail seems to get rerouted...
[05:10] <sebas891> ikonia: I mean if the tunnel goes down it starts it again.
[05:10] <socialdisorder> sorry i'm a noob, wine?
[05:10] <ikonia> sebas891: not possible
[05:10] <withaY> soundray: think that would make much of a difference since it's still the gecko engine (and everything else required) underneath?
[05:10] <ikonia> sebas891: you'd have to script it
[05:10] <AlexC_> ikonia: ahh, I tend not to use that because sometimes the user doesn't even know they recieved the message. In this main chat they can see it easily,
[05:11] <Sasa> hey guys, I have another question: how safe is web-browsing and irc etc with Ubuntu with no virus protection?
[05:11] <tkcom> or else... write to Apple for iTunes linux version >.<
[05:11] <ikonia> AlexC_: something thats being tried at the moment, to cut down on the noise
[05:11] <Sasa> what about firewall
[05:11] <task0> ikonia, and how do i do that? how do i get data to retyping?
[05:11] <amar> I have pasted my pro in dis link: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7501/
[05:11] <neo_> ikonia: i know but i need to edit this file: /etc/mysql/my.cnf
[05:11] <ikonia> task0: you type mount and work it out
[05:11] <amar> can anyone hlep me
[05:11] <ikonia> neo_: - last time - use sudo - then your editor then the file
[05:11] <neo_> and there standing nothing about chmod
[05:11] <Phasor> At the moment, ntfsresize says: Current volume size: 139999994368 bytes; Current device size: 200038777344 bytes. How do I get the 60-odd GiB ready for Ubuntu to be installed onto?
[05:11] <sebas891> ikonia: well... I thought something would have been done. :(
[05:11] <AlexC_> Sasa: Linux doesn't really need a Anti Virus,
[05:11] <Almindor> how can I print a PDF document "wide ways" ?
[05:11] <ikonia> sebas891: nop
[05:11] <ardchoille> Sasa: You don't really have to worry about viruses in Linux, there aren't any active one.
[05:11] <ikonia> nope
[05:11] <Almindor> I don't see anything like that in the print options
[05:11] <phixnay> jrib, should I mkdir /var/Mail/root
[05:11] <jrib> phixnay: no
[05:11] <Almindor> and rotating in the pdf viewer doesn't have effect
[05:11] <Sasa> thank you AlexCX and ardchoille
[05:12] <sebas891> ikonia: thx
[05:12] <AlexC_> Sasa: Linux comes built in with a Firewall called IPTables, aswell
[05:12] <soundray> withaY: that's why I think it would make a good test case, to see if your firefox might be poorly configured
[05:12] <fazed> hey i have been having a problem with machine hangs when logging out of X (Nvidia binary drivers, no berly etc) and i found a work around. but dont understand why it works, can anyone help me?
[05:12] <amar>  I have pasted my pro in dis link: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7501/
[05:12] <jrib> amar: what version of ubuntu?
[05:12] <Sasa> IPTables...where can I find it
[05:12] <AlexC_> !repeat | amar

[05:12] <texas_john> Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier'n puttin' it back in.
[05:12] <jrib> amar: try this command instead:   gksudo "gedit /etc/apt/sources.list"
[05:12] <leos> how can i delete them just delete?
[05:13] <GazzaF> I have both working
[05:13] <erUSUL> Sasa: apt-cache search iptables
[05:13] <Sasa> is there any way I could see it, AlexC, I'm just curiuos
[05:13] <erUSUL> leos: man rm
[05:13] <ikonia> Sasa: see what
[05:13] <GazzaF> thanks going out to any who helped here
[05:13] <amar> jrib: but dat is used to change repos........ rite??
[05:13] <phixnay> jrib: what do I do then?
[05:13] <AlexC_> Sasa: for a front end (GUI) to IPtables you'll need to install Firestarter
[05:13] <Sasa> IPTables, Ikonia
[05:13] <jrib> amar: erm right, sorry.  I mean:  gksudo "gedit /etc/fstab"
[05:13] <GazzaF> I shall log back in on linux and help others through what i've learned :)
[05:13] <cr7> siema;d
[05:13] <ikonia> Sasa: type "iptables"
[05:13] <Sasa> oh, gotcha
[05:13] <jrib> phixnay: does just "mutt" without sudo still have no mail?

[05:14] <ubotu> cr7: Mozesz uzyskac pomoc w jezyku polskim na #ubuntu-pl
[05:14] <Sasa> I typed "grep IPTables" and the terminal just sits there

[05:14] <ikonia> rasputnik: man cdrecord
[05:14] <jrib> amar: ok, is it still blank?

[05:14] <rasputnik> ikonia: it's ok to say you don't know :)
[05:14] <soundray> withaY: I just tried epiphany here, and there is a small, but noticeable difference (ie. epiphany is faster)
[05:14] <ikonia> pantalaimon_: make a colume copy it over
[05:14] <AlexC_> Sasa: Linux is case sensative. do "man iptables"
[05:15] <ikonia> rasputnik: I do know, thats why I'm not asking how to do it
[05:15] <soundray> withaY: with the same maps page, I mean
[05:15] <neo_> ikonia: i needed this gksudo "gedit /etc/mysql/my.cnf"
[05:15] <amar> jrib: nope...... it contains the permissions to diff volumes
[05:15] <Sasa> Thank you AlexC
[05:15] <Sasa> wow, you guys rock
[05:15] <Phasor> !fdisk
[05:15] <neo_> jrib: thanks voor gksudo "gedit /etc/fstab" that command you sad to someone :)
[05:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fdisk - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:15] <AlexC_> Sasa: hehe you're welcome
[05:15] <rasputnik> pantalaimon_: not sure you still can on edgy? the installer doesn't offer lvm as an install option any more
[05:15] <jrib> amar: k, so you are good to go now?
[05:15] <amar> jrib: can i change the values here??
[05:15] <jrib> amar: what values?  What do you want to change?
[05:15] <Phasor> Do I need to use fdisk to set up my partitions to use for installing Ubuntu onto?
[05:15] <ardchoille> Sasa: You'll find this channel quite awesome :)
[05:16] <rasputnik> ikonia: is there a reason you don't want to tell me? are you shy?
[05:16] <amar> i wanna change the permission to my volume...
[05:16] <pantalaimon_> rasputnik, the alternate cd does
[05:16] <leos> i right click the icon and select umount :
[05:16] <[Ayanami] > Hey, folks. I'm in Windows right now, and I'm wondering what channel would be appropriate to figure out how to go Ubuntu 24/7 :)
[05:16] <fazed> how do i change the default runlevel?
[05:16] <Phasor> I've tried using gparted but that throws up an error about bad sectors
[05:16] <Sasa> ardchoille, awesome indeed!
[05:16] <ikonia> rasputnik: I've just told you how to get the info "man cdrecord"
[05:16] <rasputnik> pantalaimon_: oh, cool - didn't know about that, thanks.
[05:16] <amar> jrib: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VolumePermissions?highlight=%28volume%29%7C%28permission%29
[05:16] <Phasor> However, I've successfully used ntfsresize on it
[05:16] <ikonia> rasputnik: is there a reason you don't want to read the man page
[05:16] <Sasa> ok, another quick newbie question
[05:16] <jrib> amar: ok, what are they now and what do you want them to become?
[05:16] <AlexC_> [Ayanami] : ... what do you mean? What channel? ??
[05:16] <phixnay> jrib: /bin/sh: shutdown:
[05:16] <rasputnik> ikonia: the man page is extremely long and i just want to burn the iso
[05:16] <phixnay> not found
[05:16] <Sasa> where can I find system information, such as exact version of my Ubuntu
[05:16] <AlexC_> [Ayanami] : how to go Ubuntu 24/7 ... uninstall Windows, install Ubuntu.
[05:16] <amar> jrib: can u plz chk dis link;  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VolumePermissions?highlight=%28volume%29%7C%28permission%29
[05:16] <AlexC_> Sasa: Places->About Ubuntu?
[05:16] <Sasa> GUI preferred, of course
[05:16] <pantalaimon_> ikonia, i dont understand... i think the problem is that the kernel cant find the logical volume to mount it as root
[05:17] <ikonia> rasputnik: if you read the man page - down near the bottom you'll find examples
[05:17] <AlexC_> Sasa: sorry, System->
[05:17] <jrib> phixnay: ah, /sbin must not be in the $PATH when cron runs.... try  /sbin/shutdown
[05:17] <amar> i'm referring to dis link
[05:17] <[Ayanami] > AlexC_: Well, would that be a general #Ubuntu question, or maybe #Unbutu-<Something>?
[05:17] <ikonia> pantalaimon_: you need ot create a volume, then copy the data onto it, then change the boot info in grub and fstab
[05:17] <jrib> amar: join me in #ubuntu-classroom please
[05:17] <phixnay> jrib: ok
[05:17] <amar> jrib: k
[05:17] <ikonia> [Ayanami] : do you want help with windows
[05:17] <AlexC_> [Ayanami] : oh, I understand. Hum ... not sure.
[05:17] <Sasa> brilliance....
[05:17] <amar>  #ubuntu-classroom
[05:17] <[Ayanami] > Also, yeah, but then there's the little issue of workflow falling to a stop. :(
[05:18] <AlexC_> Sasa: was that what you wanted?
[05:18] <ikonia> [Ayanami] : join #windows
[05:18] <soundray> [Ayanami] : if that's a critical issue, it would be better to get a second machine for trying Ubuntu.
[05:18] <feryana> Hi!
[05:18] <Sasa> I noticed Ubuntu has functionality very similar to Windows Update, with a little icon in the "systemtray"
[05:18] <rasputnik> ikonia: is it even the right tool to use? I'm getting 'There are unsettled issues with Linux-2.5 and newer' error running '-scanbus'
[05:18] <amar> jrib: where shld i type dat
[05:18] <[Ayanami] > ikonia doesn't understand what I mean, I guess. since its not a Windows support issue.
[05:18] <AlexC_> Sasa: Ubuntu's is far far far far more powerful
[05:18] <ikonia> rasputnik: yup - its a fine tool
[05:18] <jrib> amar: like this right here:   /join #ubuntu-classroom
[05:18] <amar> jrib: how to join dat chanel
[05:18] <Sasa> what kinda thing gets patched up here
[05:19] <ikonia> Sasa: all things
[05:19] <ikonia> Sasa: you'll find good intro docs on http://www.ubuntu.com
[05:19] <rasputnik> ikonia: but if -scanbus doesn't see the drive, how do i know what dev= should be?
[05:19] <pantalaimon_> ikonia, copy what data onto the volume? all stuff from root?
[05:19] <AlexC_> Sasa: Windows Update can only update Windows. Ubuntu update manager can update the _entire_ system, even programs you install afterwards. Like ... Gaim will get updates etc, or X etc
[05:19] <ikonia> pantalaimon_: yup
[05:19] <phixnay> jrib: 20 11 * * * /sbin/shutdown -h 11:21
[05:19] <Sasa> oh wow...understood, thank you AlexC
[05:19] <feryana> I'm going to purchase a new computer very soon... I would like to know if I can transfer everything from this computer to the new one, because I won't use the copy of windows (of course) but start over with everything.. awwww... it's possible?
[05:19] <superbear> hi. can someone tell me how to send a signal to a prozess to tell him to stop, without killing the prozess directly with kill
[05:20] <ikonia> feryana: are you wanting to use ubuntu
[05:20] <ikonia> superbear: kill -$anything will kill the process
[05:20] <AlexC_> superbear: ? thats the only way?
[05:20] <feryana> ikonia of course.... that's what I have, since a year and a half :)
[05:20] <Cribbzter> anyone that cvould help me with install of Ndiswrapper?
[05:20] <phixnay> jrib: Broadcast message from root@patrickishere
[05:20] <phixnay>         (unknown) at 11:20 ...
[05:20] <phixnay> The system is going down for halt IN ONE MINUTE!
[05:20] <pantalaimon_> ikonia, but i think i already did it, because during installation i made a logica volume be the root filesystem
[05:20] <jrib> phixnay: bye
[05:20] <rasputnik> superbear: man signal - but sending SIGSTOP doesn't always stop a process
[05:20] <ikonia> pantalaimon_: so the data should already be on an lvm
[05:20] <phixnay> jrib: lol thx
[05:20] <Sasa> what you say Ubuntu us far far far more powerful, what are you referring to? I can feel it having so much under the hood, but I can't see it all, as I'm just one humble infatuated noob.
[05:21] <phixnay> jrib: sudo shutdown -c
[05:21] <ikonia> Sasa: you'll find good intro docs on http://www.ubuntu.com
[05:21] <AlexC_> Sasa: you'll get use to it. What I meant was Ubuntu's update manager/package manager is far more powerful than "Windows Update" which can only update Windows, not programs installed on Windows
[05:22] <pantalaimon_> ikonia, yes... the /boot is on a fisical partition so grub can find the vmlinuz and stuff but then when it tries to boot the kernel, the kernel says something like it wasnt able to mount root
[05:22] <soundray> [Ayanami] : your workflow is going to stop for a while if you do a hard switch to 24/7 ubuntu. Would it not be better to dual-boot until you know what ubuntu can and can't do for you?
[05:22] <pantalaimon_> ikonia, physical*
[05:22] <ikonia> pantalaimon_: you need to investigate why
[05:22] <feryana> ikonia it's possible to copy all my Ubuntu (laptop) to the new desktop that I will purchase?
[05:22] <AlexC_> Sasa: here, this is a good read to get use to Ubuntu/Linux: https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/index.html
[05:22] <jrib> phixnay: erm, why are you still here?
[05:22] <ikonia> pantalaimon_: having /boot on a physical partition is good
[05:22] <paLindr0me> !pppoe
[05:22] <ubotu> Setting up an ADSL/PPPoE connection? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE
[05:22] <ikonia> feryana: you can copy data - not the ubuntu install
[05:22] <phixnay> jrib: sudo shutdown -c
[05:22] <jrib> phixnay: oh
[05:22] <rasputnik> pantalaimon_: have you passed a 'root=/dev/mapper/whatever' argument to grub?
[05:23] <feryana> ikonia , so I have to start over and install everything again?
[05:23] <phixnay> jrib: lol
[05:23] <ikonia> feryana: yup
[05:23] <phixnay> I'm going to test it again
[05:23] <phixnay> this time for real
[05:23] <soundray> feryana: no, you can transfer data over from the old to the new machine
[05:23] <pantalaimon_> ikonia, yes, but i think the problem is that the kernel has no idea where is this /dev/mapper/whatever
[05:23] <AlexC_> phixnay: is Ubuntu not shutting down for you with "shutdow" ?
[05:23] <ikonia> pantalaimon_: it should do - lvm is already installed
[05:23] <feryana> soundray, and how? what should I need to do?
[05:23] <pantalaimon_> rasputnik, , yes, but i think the problem is that the kernel has no idea where is this /dev/mapper/whatever
[05:23] <feryana> soundray , and how? what should I need to do?
[05:24] <ikonia> feryana: you can only copy data - not the ubuntu install
[05:24] <phixnay> AlexC_: shutdown is working correctly, I did "sudo shutdown -c" to cancel the shutdown
[05:24] <soundray> feryana: install ubuntu on the new machine (takes 20 to 30 minutes). Network them. Copy the data over.
[05:24] <Cribbzter> why do my efforts to instal ndiswrapper fail with no permissions!
[05:24] <Lunar_Lamp> How can I tunnel traffic so that I can use Azureus behind a proxy?
[05:25] <AlexC_> phixnay: oh ... just cos when I do "shutdown -h now" it never ever works. It just kicks me to CLI ... not sure why it is. Oh well, I never use it anyway lol
[05:25] <phixnay> lol that is strange
[05:25] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: you need to have direct access to the internet from your host
[05:25] <withaY> soundray: so i tested epiphany and although it's a bit faster and is taking up less memory, i still get slow heavy javascript pages.  here's just one example of an ajax-ified gallery that will slow to a crawl:  http://jquery.com/demo/thickbox/
[05:25] <pantalaimon_> rasputnik, in some howto i saw something like you need a special initrd image that can find the logical volumes and allow the kernel to mount root there
[05:25] <phixnay> AlexC_ were you root?
[05:25] <untitled1> where can i read about making bootsplash in kubuntu?
[05:25] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, can't I tunnel the traffic through an SSH connection?
[05:25] <AlexC_> phixnay: no, but I've tried root and sudo and everything, still no luck
[05:25] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: yes - but you need a direct connection to the internet
[05:25] <feryana> soundray , yes I'm downloading the new version.  And then? I must install all the software again and configurate everything once more?
[05:25] <rasputnik> pantalaimon_: that's why I wondered if it was still supported - you need the device mapper bits in the kernel
[05:25] <ikonia> feryana: yes
[05:25] <nowhere> Hi, I'm trying to set up dapper here but after installing ati drivers for ati 9600 and reboot it gets caught into an endless one.. After the first time I installed ubuntu again and tried another method.. Same problem :(
[05:26] <ikonia> rasputnik: I was under the impression its part of the default install
[05:26] <phixnay> AlexC: weird. I guess if you never have to use it, it's no biggie
[05:26] <FactTech> Question: Does anyone know the name of the software underlying the "add/remove" function in Xfce?
[05:26] <AlexC_> phixnay: yeah exactly, no worries :P
[05:26] <soundray> feryana: if your concern is the packages you have installed, you can do 'dpkg --get-selections >/tmp/selections', copy /tmp/selections to the new machine and do 'cat /tmp/selections | dpkg --set-selections'
[05:26] <pantalaimon_> rasputnik, and this is not already there by default, i mean do i have to recompile the kernel maybe?
[05:27] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, what do you mean "direct connection to the internet". Wouldn;t this work: PC-->ssh-->HomeServer-->direct-->Torrents
[05:27] <rasputnik> ikonia:  my lvm root was installed back on breezy, then upgraded - but a fresh install didn't seem to support it.
[05:27] <Sasa> ok, I'm out....once again, you guys ROCK
[05:27] <feryana> ok soundray thanks!
[05:27] <minh> how do i configure my xorg?
[05:27] <rasputnik> pantalaimon_: to be honest i dont' know. you can probably just add stuff to the ramdisk
[05:27] <soundray> withaY: they load reasonably fast here. Is your machine page swapping?
[05:27] <skywalker> hi
[05:28] <feryana> soundray that includees the softeware? or just the dependences
[05:28] <rasputnik> ok, i've read the manpage for the third time and it's dreadful. what's the right cdrecord incantation?
[05:28] <soundray> feryana: 'man dpkg' for details
[05:28] <AlexC_> minh: either edit the file "gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" or do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[05:28] <feryana> ok
[05:28] <untitled1_> where can i read about making bootsplash in ubuntu?
[05:28] <ssl_> plz,how to enable 'super-key' on xfce?how to use the 'xmodmap' command?
[05:28] <skywalker> I have no sound do configure it in KDE or the Ub desktop or it does not matter?
[05:29] <minh> thx AlexC, i'm trying to install compiz (http://gandalfn.wordpress.com/howto/howto-compiz-aiglx-on-edgy/)
[05:29] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: yes that will work
[05:29] <soundray> rasputnik: I think growisofs will give you less dread
[05:29] <withaY> soundray: the zoomed images load fast for you in that example i provided a link to?  and how would i monitor page swapping if i were to test?
[05:29] <ikonia> rasputnik: I thought it was fine in 6.06 I could be wrong
[05:29] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, ok, I thought so. Do you have any idea how I can configure it though? I don't.
[05:29] <AlexC_> minh: do "gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" then
[05:29] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, I have no problems tunnelling my IRC traffic.
[05:29] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: yup  you do it the same as irc but on different ports
[05:30] <rasputnik> soundray: cheers
[05:30] <soundray> withaY: 'cat /proc/meminfo', compare SwapTotal: and SwapFree:
[05:30] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, what do I use as the azureus server though?
[05:30] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: your pc
[05:30] <Phasor> Gparted refuses to resize my NTFS partition due to a bad sectors error thrown up by NTFSRESIZE. However, I have already used NTFSRESIZE successfully to resize it to 130GiB from 200GiB. How do I change the partition successfully?
[05:31] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, oh, so whereas I'd use "irc.freenode.org" I can change that to "localhost"?
[05:31] <ssl_> plz,how to enable 'super-key' on xfce?how to use the 'xmodmap' command to enable it?Anybody help?
[05:31] <soundray> withaY: it takes just over a second to bring up the zoomed image
[05:31] <feryana> soundray I made it and instantly it finished, however, I have 'ubuntu-6.10-desktop-i386.iso.part' that file in the desktop and the size is increasing.  It's ok?
[05:31] <tominglis> hi guys, i am trying to install nvidia-glx on ubuntu feisty to get my geforce go 7950 gtx sli cards working, and i am having difficulty. the nvidia-glx package seems to install kernel 2.6.20-5-386 and the associated restricted modules, but this hangs on 'starting up...' if i uninstall that and install restricted modules 2.6.20-8-generic, will that work with the default feisty kernel, and will it get upgraded by apt as
[05:31] <tominglis> new versions come out?
[05:31] <feryana> oh no
[05:31] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, which ports do I need to use though?
[05:31] <feryana> that's the file that I;m downloading
[05:31] <feryana> lol
[05:31] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: you don't enter a server - you tunnel to the server with direct internet connection
[05:31] <feryana> soundray were can I find the file ?
[05:32] <lesshaste> anyone got madwifi and network manager to work together?
[05:32] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, I'm a little unsure - I currently use port forwarding rather than tunnelling.  I think I'm confused as to what I should be doing.
[05:32] <soundray> feryana: what file? The selections? In /tmp/selections, if you used my example command
[05:32] <lesshaste> or.. anyone got madwifi to work at all?
[05:32] <withaY> soundray:  doesn't look like it's paging much of anything.  SwapTotal: 4771264 kB; SwapFree: 4639252 kB  (thanks for your help on this, btw.)
[05:32] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: you tunnel from your PC to the server with internet connection - then launch your torrent client locally
[05:32] <feryana> soundray OK
[05:33] <soundray> withaY: how much total RAM is there?
[05:33] <ssl_> how to enable 'super-key'?how to use the 'xmodmap' command to enable it?Anybody help?
[05:33] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, do you mind if I pm you?
[05:33] <soundray> !repeat | ssl_
[05:33] <ubotu> ssl_: 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
[05:33] <feryana> soundray 34.4 Kbs it's correct size?
[05:34] <lesshaste> I think nm-applet (network manager) must have a bug in relation to madwifi.. I reported it here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/87815
[05:34] <withaY> soundray: 2GB
[05:34] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: sorry I don't do random PM's
[05:34] <rasputnik> lesshaste: what are you trying to do? just get a wireless card up?
[05:34] <AlexC_> bye all!
[05:34] <lesshaste> rasputnik: yes...
[05:34] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, fair enough.
[05:34] <ronaldo> what the difference between linux-server and linux-image-server
[05:34] <soundray> feryana: yes
[05:34] <feryana> soundray I saw all the names of softwar such "amule" and other packages, and it puts install in other columm, is that right???????
[05:34] <ronaldo> s/what/what's
[05:34] <Ganjalf> wei
[05:34] <Ganjalf> ciao a tutti
[05:34] <rasputnik> i've done wpa without network-manager and with it. without seems to be more flexible
[05:34] <soundray> feryana: yes
[05:35] <metal03> Hey, I have problems with wine...  if anyone that knows about wine can help...  please jump on the #winehq channel so we can talk!!  :)
[05:35] <lesshaste> rasputnik: ok.. well.. I ran nm-applet but it doesn't seem to recognise that my wireless card exists
[05:35] <Agiofws> hello
[05:35] <Agiofws> major problem
[05:35] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, when tunnelling for IRC access I use this kind of command: ssh -l LOGINNAME -L LOCALPORT:irc-server-to-connect-to:PORT server-to-tunnel-through
[05:35] <lesshaste> rasputnik: I then did it manually... it sort of works but I have some questions
[05:35] <ikonia> ok
[05:35] <rasputnik> I wrote up what i did : http://number9.hellooperator.net/articles/2005/11/21/fun-with-wpa_supplicant
[05:35] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, is that of the right form for azureus tunnelling?
[05:35] <feryana> soundray thanks a lot... 2 years later and I still discovering amazing things on ubuntu... so that will make to install all of that on the new computer.... it will download all and made the 'apt-get' on all????????
[05:35] <soundray> withaY: and your CPU?
[05:35] <Cribbzter> could anyone PLEASE help me with the install of ndiswrapper!
[05:35] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: yes, but your target ill be the server with internet connection
[05:36] <ikonia> s/ill/will
[05:36] <lesshaste> rasputnik: how do you get it to run dhclient for you? http://www.pastebin.co.uk/10914 has my config files
[05:36] <Agiofws> i have installed  ubuntu server and i canot get root access  to configure my system   what IS SUDOS  default password  "even "
[05:36] <Sasa> Hi All....simple question I forgot to ask
[05:36] <Agiofws> i have tried http://www.debuntu.org/2006/04/24/34-ubuntu-default-root-password-or-the-sudo-way and this http://www.debianadmin.com/enable-and-disable-ubuntu-root-password.html
[05:36] <ikonia> Sasa: you'll find great basic introduction docs on http://www.ubuntu.com
[05:36] <Agiofws> ist not working
[05:36] <Sasa> I am trying to update Firefox, but I cannot get to the update manager from "Help" menu. I tried synaptic, but I got a million search resuls
[05:36] <soundray> feryana: no, this is only to ease the step of selecting the package you had. You still have to run a package manager -- I suggest you set the selections with dpkg like I suggested, then run synaptic and complete the installation
[05:37] <Agiofws> sudo sh not even working
[05:37] <ikonia> Agiofws: I've told you where to get the docs - http;//www.ubuntu.com and i've sent you a link detailing sudo
[05:37] <ikonia> !sudo >agiofws
[05:37] <ikonia> !root >agiofws
[05:37] <Agiofws> ikonia:  i followed those links its not working
[05:37] <lesshaste> rasputnik: thanks... ignoring the dhclient problem for a moment.. if you then want to connect to another network do you have to manually edit the config files?
[05:37] <ikonia> Agiofws: it does work
[05:38] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia: so; ssh -l LOGINNAME -L 7777:SERVER:7777 localhost - that gives me an error that ""ssh: connect to host localhost port 22: Connection refused
[05:38] <withaY> soundray: core duo t2300 (2MB L2, 1.66Ghz, 667Mhz FSB)
[05:38] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: your server isn't listening on ssh ports
[05:38] <rasputnik> lesshaste: the dhclient bit is covered on that url.
[05:38] <andreseso> Agiofws: try sudo bash with your own password
[05:38] <feryana> soundray so when I run that... I will see a dpkg folder on synaptics or what, how can I difference the pacages?
[05:38] <soundray> Agiofws: it asks for your user password. There is no root password or special sudo password
[05:39] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, I can ssh into the server easily.  It's the localhost (i.e. the laptop i'm on at the moment) that's rejecting the ssh.
[05:39] <Sasa> I was unable to find documentation on updating firefox through GUI on ubuntu.com documentation pages
[05:39] <rasputnik> lesshaste: you can specify multiple networks in wpa_supplicant.conf and use wpa_cli to switch between them, but it's not as seamless as nm-applet
[05:39] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: thats strange
[05:39] <Sasa> what is the simplest way?
[05:39] <soundray> feryana: you will see in synaptic that all the packages you had on your old system will be set as "to be installed" in synaptic
[05:39] <ikonia> Sasa: update it through synaptic
[05:39] <lesshaste> rasputnik: ok.. which for some reason doesn't work
[05:39] <Agiofws> ok
[05:39] <lesshaste> rasputnik: let me try to read your instructions a bit more.. you seem to have used a third file I didn't touch
[05:40] <feryana> soundray amazing pal! Thanks a lot! That will save me thousands of hours!!!!!!!!!!!! And the configs are importable?
[05:40] <metal03> If anyone knows about wine...  please join #winehq...  I need to ask something but I don't want to use #ubuntu for it...  it's busy enough
[05:40] <ikonia> metal03: ask the people in #winehq
[05:40] <Sasa> I tried to update from there, but I cannot see version 2.0.0.2 all they have is *.1
[05:41] <ikonia> Sasa: that version may not be available yet
[05:41] <soundray> withaY: my CPU is definitely slower than yours, and I haven't got that speed problem. So the problem is specific to your installation. I would try setting up a new user and see if firefox is still slow when run with that user's fresh config.
[05:41] <metal03> ikonia: ya, no one is responding...  so I'm advertising here!!!  heehehe
[05:41] <ikonia> metal03: sort of defeats the object of not asking in here
[05:41] <feryana> soundray I have 6.06 and I will install 6.10... can be problems? Or better i install 6.06 in the new system?
[05:41] <rasputnik> Lunar_Lamp: are you running ssh on localhost? the command you pasted tries to connect to ssh on localhost
[05:41] <ikonia> metal03: just wait around in there
[05:41] <Lunar_Lamp> rasputnik, I know - that's what ikonia suggested.
[05:42] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: no its not
[05:42] <soundray> feryana: I wouldn't just copy the old configurations in, but you should use your old /etc/ for reference, so save it somewhere safe on the new machine.
[05:42] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, ok, I misunderstood then.
[05:42] <Sasa> ikonia: it looks it is not available from synaptic, but it is available for direct download from the ffx website
[05:42] <ikonia> Lunar_Lamp: I told you to use the same command as you did for IRC but the target is the server with direct internet connection
[05:42] <ikonia> Sasa: don't download direct - use ubuntu downloads through synaptic and wait for it to be released
[05:42] <rasputnik> Lunar_Lamp: you're trying to forward localhost:7777 to server:7777 right?
[05:42] <Sasa> gotcha
[05:42] <Sasa> thank you ikonia
[05:42] <nikin> hy
[05:42] <feryana> soundray Ok! And just the last question.  I have 6.06 in this one, I install 6.10 in the new one or better the 6.06 if I will import all?
[05:42] <soundray> feryana: 6.06 has long-term support. Some people find it a bit more stable. I personally prefer 6.10
[05:43] <Lunar_Lamp> ikonia, for irc I tunnel through the server with the direct connection - so you say I should have the same server for each?
[05:43] <soundray> feryana: but in your situation, I would stick with 6.06 for the time being.
[05:43] <ikonia> same server for each ?
[05:43] <ikonia> no
[05:43] <ikonia> I'm saying you need to tunnel to the server with direct internet connection
[05:43] <feryana> soundray I thought so.... great... thanks!
[05:44] <bulmer> whose using vmware with XP as guest os..is it okay to delete one of those *.vmdk files? all 4 of them seem to have same dates..
[05:44] <jessie^^> it looks like synaptic upgraded me to the 2.6.17-generic kernel. I need kernel headers installed but I don't see a package for them in synaptic. Any ideas?
[05:44] <nikin> i ame planning to use PSP (pascal server pages) with Apache for my webpage. Does someone know a good tutorial for that?
[05:45] <rasputnik> bulmer: no, those are the disk image
[05:45] <Antonio_Carlos_M> hi
[05:45] <bulmer> rasputnik: i should not delete them?
[05:45] <Antonio_Carlos_M> pls help me i have problems with my tv card
[05:45] <rasputnik> bulmer: only if you want to break the vm
[05:46] <bulmer> rasputnik: okay got yah
[05:46] <dhorn> Does anyone know where I can find the wall plugin for Beryl?
[05:46] <drivera90> Is it possible that VLC isn't playing this MKV file well because it's DiVX 5.2.0 as opposed to a more recent version?
[05:46] <ikonia> dhorn: join #ubuntu-effects
[05:46] <nowhere> Hi, with Ubuntu 6.06 after installning Ati drivers (two different methods) it gives a black screen. I found a suggestion to add xforcevesa with boot but it already was. What can I do?
[05:46] <zmaster> can any one help me encode a psp video at 480x272
[05:47] <nikin> zmaster: try look after mencoder.
[05:47] <zmaster> i did
[05:48] <nikin> no luck?
[05:48] <zmaster> nikin: i did but i cant find proper command line, i can convert mpg to mp4 but wheni play it on linux it says this file says its mp4 but contains avi data
[05:48] <nikin> what codec did you use?
[05:49] <Reuben> I'm about to create a new partition for common use between ubuntu and xp....should it be FAT16 or 32
[05:49] <ikonia> Reuben: there isn't really a good cross platform file system
[05:49] <nowhere> xp doesn't support fat16
[05:50] <zmaster> so can any one help me encode a psp video at 480x272
[05:50] <soundray> Reuben: it should be ext3 (if you can face installing ext2fsd in Windows to read/write it)
[05:50] <Reuben> i want read/write access from both OSs...any suggestions?
[05:50] <vox754> Reuben, still with the same question? FAT32 is the way to go. FAT16 was used 1993, I think.
[05:50] <emet> cool Bash command for the day, "apt-cache show <package name>"
[05:50] <ikonia> Reuben: there isn't really a good cross platform file system
[05:50] <emet> find all kinds of details of any package
[05:50] <Reuben> so my best bet is ext3?
[05:50] <soundray> Reuben: I would certainly say so
[05:51] <Reuben> thanks...will try it out
[05:51] <ryanakca> !dvd
[05:51] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[05:51] <soundray> Reuben: journalled, well-documented, non-proprietary...
[05:51] <chavo> I got BSODs from the ext2fs driver in XP
[05:51] <ikonia> Reuben: just remember there is not really ext3 write support in windows
[05:51] <katami> Does the 64bit run any faster than the 32bit and is the hardware support the same?
[05:51] <soundray> ikonia: of course there is
[05:51] <ikonia> katami: no
[05:51] <ikonia> soundray: not really - its a bit "flakey" the driver
[05:51] <ikonia> soundray: works for some - crashes for others
[05:52] <emet> well at least there is a driver
[05:52] <Kaso> Does anyone know a good noobies' guide to shell scripting, i want to write a script to run a program once for each file in the directory
[05:52] <ikonia> Kaso: http://www.tldp.org
[05:52] <soundray> ikonia: the Windows driver doesn't do journalling yet, but calling it flaky is an exaggeration (Reuben)
[05:52] <katami> kk
[05:52] <emet> there is no driver for resier*/xfs/zfs/ etc on windows
[05:52] <nowhere> With Ubuntu 6.06 after installing Ati drivers (for 9600 pro - two different methods) it gives a black screen. I found a suggestion to add xforcevesa with boot but it already was. What can I do?
[05:52] <ikonia> soundray: not at all, I've seen it corrupt data and cause system instability
[05:52] <ikonia> soundray: not for me personally, but others
[05:52] <vox754> katami, install the 32-bit. The 64-bit is better for servers and advanced stuff, not for the regular dektop user.
[05:52] <chavo> theres an app called explore2fs that works on Windows also
[05:52] <soundray> ikonia: was that ext2fsd (my favoured one) or ext2ifs?
[05:53] <chavo> but better for light usage
[05:53] <Kool> hi. can someone please tell me where can i find the nUbuntu theme for fluxbox?
[05:53] <Kaso> thanks ikonia ill take a look
[05:53] <ikonia> soundray: can't remember the names, I don't use windows
[05:53] <Reuben> what is the recommended partition size for a full install of ubuntu ultimate edition?
[05:53] <emet> shall I install ntfs-3g
[05:53] <emet> is it safe?
[05:53] <ikonia> Reuben: there is no such product
[05:53] <ikonia> made buy ubuntu
[05:53] <ikonia> emet: again - unstable
[05:53] <chavo> katami, some things like flash are not available or hard to get working in 64bit  also
[05:53] <Iced> Hey everybody
[05:53] <lesshaste> rasputnik: how did you tell it was running dhclient too soon?
[05:53] <emet> ikonia, there is
[05:54] <lesshaste> rasputnik: I can't tell whether it tries to run dhclient at all
[05:54] <ikonia> emet: not made by ubuntu
[05:54] <emet> ikonia, ntfs-3g is 1.0
[05:54] <Kool> it looks like this - http://shots.osdir.com/slideshows/slideshow.php?release=691&slide=12
[05:54] <Reuben> ikonia: its an edgy (6.10) with a bunch of dd-ons like beryl
[05:54] <vox754> Reuben, what is this Ultimate Edition? Do you have any link, or proof?
[05:54] <Iced> Guys, do you mind if I ask some questions?
[05:54] <rasputnik> lesshaste: until wpa is setup, it's like the network cable isn't plugged in. it *has* to wpa associate before dhcp will work
[05:54] <ikonia> Reuben: thats not made bu ubuntu
[05:54] <SkippyX> I'm going over to a buddies house to do an install. I'm running breezy (dial-up + laziness = older distro), but I'm looking at installing Edgy on her machine.
[05:54] <ikonia> vox754: http://ubuntusoftware.info/ultimate/index.html
[05:54] <vox754> !ask > Iced
[05:54] <lesshaste> rasputnik: got you... but how did you work out that was the problem?
[05:54] <ikonia> its not ubuntu package
[05:54] <soundray> Reuben: Ubuntu (the flavor that we prefer to support here) fits into 2GB, but I tend to make a 10GB root partition and leave the rest of the drive for /home
[05:54] <SkippyX> However, seen some stuff in the forums that gives me 2nd thoughts....better off w/ dapper?
[05:55] <rasputnik> lesshaste: I could do a static ip and it worked
[05:55] <lesshaste> rasputnik: ok
[05:55] <zmaster> so can any one help me encode a psp video at 480x272
[05:55] <emet> I want Ubuntu Ultimate Shuttleworth Signature Edition
[05:55] <lesshaste> rasputnik: I reported the nm-applet problem in any case.. hopefully someone will look at it
[05:55] <zmaster> is there a way to encode pmp for psp on linux
[05:55] <Iced> First: Is easy ubuntu safe?
[05:55] <errorlevel> In what package(s) can the helvetica font and Times New Roman be found?
[05:55] <ikonia> Iced: I don't like it
[05:55] <Reuben> i know....but its the 6.10 version which supports my laptops wifi....and the extra stuff is just a bonus
[05:55] <ikonia> Reuben: just use 6.10
[05:56] <ikonia> Reuben: then you get support in here
[05:56] <Iced> ikonia: What shouldI use instead? Or should I do it manually? (I haven't even installed ubuntu yet, I'm downloading it)
[05:56] <ikonia> Iced: just install ubuntu
[05:57] <Reuben> ok...makes more sense...so a 2gb bootable partition (root) and the rest for /home ?
[05:57] <zmaster> can any one help with my psp problems please
[05:57] <ikonia> Reuben: I'd advise bigger than 2gb
[05:57] <soundray> zmaster: if anyone could, they would
[05:57] <Iced> But, what do I do to get the things on easy ubuntu without actuallu using it?
[05:57] <ikonia> Reuben: at least 10
[05:57] <vox754> Iced, install ubuntu, if it works okay, then you are lucky. If it doesn't then you start reading why. You can start reading now anyways.
[05:57] <ikonia> iced configure it
[05:58] <Reuben> saw that ...i meant minimum 2 gb right
[05:58] <soundray> zmaster: I know that it's possible to encode video for PSP, but I don't know exactly how
[05:58] <xeno1> hi! just installed Ubuntu (long time debian user) - is it possible to run 2.4 kernel on Ubuntu? (need it for 2.4 kernel modules that doesn't exists in 2.6). One problem - 2.4 doesn't support UFS, other - init gots killed (kernel too old). maybe there is some howto for this? I googled whole day, didn't found anything useful. Any ideas or maybe someone has practical experience?
[05:58] <ikonia> Reuben: at least
[05:58] <vox754> Reuben, at least 10 GB for /
[05:58] <Iced> I don't know how...
[05:58] <task0> hello all, in the quit menu i dont have shutdonw or restart, i only have hibernate! how can i fix this?!
[05:58] <ikonia> xeno1: not adviseable
[05:58] <zmaster> soundray: i know man but still good to ask, i get worried when i cant find a solution, ive tried so many different ways using ffmpeg and it all works except when i encode at 480x272, and 480x272 is what i really want
[05:58] <Reuben> ok gre
[05:58] <soundray> zmaster: if I had to do it, I would look at ffmpeg, transcode and mencoder documentation
[05:58] <skywalker> what desktop envirment do I configure my sound or does it even matter
[05:58] <ikonia> task0: its because of a theme you've applied
[05:58] <Reuben> great....will install and get back
[05:58] <ikonia> task0: or beryl
[05:58] <Iced> Another thing, I'm trying to install using install.exe
[05:58] <ikonia> Iced: don't use that
[05:59] <ikonia> Iced: use the boot cd
[05:59] <Iced> Why shouldn't I use it?
[05:59] <task0> ikonia, :S so what can i do?
[05:59] <vox754> zmaster, yours is kind of offtopic... so please be patient.
[05:59] <ikonia> Iced: its beta software and poor
[05:59] <xeno1> ikonia: yes, I know. I dont need to run 2.4 all the time. I just need sometimes to boot 2.4 to make some tests for hour-two (it's ok if system wouldn't be 100% perfectly work) and then reboot to 2.6
[05:59] <ikonia> task0: change the theme
[05:59] <ikonia> xeno1: won't work very easy
[05:59] <Iced> Does it work though?
[05:59] <soundray> Iced: it's experimental. The boot CDs are tried and tested
[05:59] <Rio> whoa! i finally installed 6.06 lts.... i kept coming in here because installation kept failing, so i was told to try to burn at a lower speed.... i ended up downloading from a european site because some of the US images got corrupt messages when i tried to install
[05:59] <ikonia> Iced: its flakey - beta software
[05:59] <Cribbzter> how do i get administrator privilegies ?
[05:59] <zmaster> vox754: alright, is there a diff irc channel which  is more specific to my problems ?
[05:59] <ikonia> Cribbzter: use sudo
[06:00] <vox754> xeno1, If you are a Debian user, then you are probably more experienced than many of us. Good luck.
[06:00] <task0> ikonia, having same problem =/
[06:00] <soundray> xeno1: it's better to do a parallel small installation of a 2.4-based distribution
[06:00] <ikonia> task0: there is a forum thread on it
[06:00] <Cribbzter> ikonia when i run synaptic it says i dont have admin how do i change that?
[06:00] <ikonia> Cribbzter: it should prompt you for a password when you run synaptic - how are you launching it, from the menu or command line
[06:01] <xeno1> soundray: yes. sounds wise... will check about this option
[06:01] <Cribbzter> ikonia menu
[06:01] <ikonia> Cribbzter: it should ask for a password
[06:01] <soundray> xeno1: much better than retrofitting ubuntu onto a kernel that it was never designed for.
[06:01] <Cribbzter> ikonia no wait u use alt+f2
[06:01] <ikonia> Cribbzter: don't - launch it from the menu
[06:01] <soundray> xeno1: I would use Debian if it was my system.
[06:02] <zmaster> is there a different IRC channel related to video enco ding problems under linux ?
[06:02] <Cribbzter> ikonia where do i findt it in the menu?
[06:02] <ikonia> Cribbzter: come on man - do SOMETHING for yourself - its under system--->administration
[06:02] <zmaster> let me rephrase that, as there probably are, ....do any of you guys know of a good irc channel related to linux video encoding
[06:02] <ikonia> zmaster: no
[06:02] <soundray> zmaster: I don't know if there is, but if there was, I'm sure they'd tell you the same thing
[06:02] <xeno1> soundray: I just deleted debian and installed ubuntu on same partition because nice X GUI in ubuntu. I'm good at kernel programming, but not very good with X configuration :-)). ok, will make some small partition for debian and will try it
[06:02] <Iced> I wan't to try install.exe first because if it doesn't work I'll just delete it and do it the CD way.
[06:03] <vox754> zmaster, I can only suggest you to visit the forums, contacting the developers and someway finding people with experience, there is also an #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:03] <ikonia> zenrox: now I know your lying
[06:03] <zmaster> kk thanks anyway
[06:03] <ikonia> Iced: just use the boot cd
[06:03] <jhasse> Why are fonts of websites in epiphany smaller than in firefox?
[06:03] <Cribbzter> ikonia well i cant find it there :-s
[06:03] <zmaster> wait i know......il look at the code the windows program i use uses, since it also uses ffmpeg and mencoder, and il modify the code for linux :)
[06:03] <oxigen> hmm, how can i find which /dev playing audio?
[06:04] <Cribbzter> ikonia oh wait sry there it was
[06:04] <soundray> zmaster: I get lots of interesting-looking hits when I search the web for "linux encoding video psp"
[06:04] <ikonia> Cribbzter: system ---> administration ---> synaptic package manager
[06:04] <oxigen> can i check this with fuser
[06:04] <Sabrotic> Greetings.What is the meaning of ''Anycast ip'' ?
[06:04] <Iced> Remember, I've never used ubuntu and I barely know much about how to work with it.
[06:04] <ikonia> oxigen: /dev/dsp ?
[06:05] <Daynah> Guys, do you know of a video recorder... whatever it's called? I'd like to make a video with my webcam... I have the drivers installed, it works in wengophone, and camorama(which only takes pictures). I just... can't... find a program. :(
[06:05] <rgl> how do I start sshd on the install cd?
[06:05] <vox754> ikonia, tough times eh?
[06:05] <zmaster> soundray: il try those and il alsol look at the code the windows program i use uses, since it also uses ffmpeg and mencoder, and il modify the code for linux :)
[06:05] <Cribbzter> ikonia ty :D
[06:05] <ikonia> Iced: all the more reason to use stable install techniques - rather than dodgy beta software
[06:05] <task0> ikonia, cant find thread on forum... maybe a little more help?
[06:05] <zmaster> soundray: thx
[06:05] <ikonia> task0: no - its on the forum, I'm not searching for you
[06:05] <oxigen> ikonia: thanks, is this the only option?
[06:05] <ikonia> rgl: you have to install it
[06:05] <ikonia> oxigen: can't remember all the devices
[06:05] <ikonia> oxigen: but its normally dsp
[06:05] <rgl> ikonia, humm, how?   Its a cd :|
[06:06] <Iced> How do you even install it with the CD? I know how to burn the ISO, but then what?
[06:06] <oxigen> ikonia: do you know how to check maybe?
[06:06] <ikonia> rgl: it runs in memory - install it like you would an install
[06:06] <ikonia> Iced: burn the cd and boot from it
[06:06] <soundray> zmaster: please let me know if you find something that works -- this would be good to have on the ubuntu wiki
[06:06] <Tron> im getting the error "no root file system is defined" when i try to install ubuntu onto a compaq smart array, can anyone help me out?
[06:06] <ikonia> Iced: read the docs on http://www.ubuntu.com
[06:06] <Iced> ikonia: Thank you
[06:06] <vox754> rgl, "sudo apt-get install <package>" it installs on RAM memory.
[06:06] <ikonia> Tron: the smart array has a different device paths for disks - you'll have to alter the root= options
[06:07] <rgl> vox754, I didn't known.  Its now installing.
[06:07] <rgl> ikonia, and vox754: thx
[06:07] <ikonia> Tron: its normally /dev/ciss/$disk
[06:07] <Tron> how do i do that
[06:07] <Tron> i think it /dev/ida/c0d0
[06:07] <zmaster> soundray: you got an email address then, il be glad to tell ya what works and doesnt
[06:07] <Iced> I should ask my cousin, he know's how do all this stuff. :P
[06:07] <ikonia> Tron: really, its normally /dev/ciss
[06:07] <drake__> Hey, Is there a wiki about 7.04 RC4 (amd64) for how to install the ATI drivers to enable 3D?
[06:07] <Tron> i'll double check
[06:08] <soundray> zmaster: you'll find me here. If not, don't worry about it.
[06:08] <Tron> i dont think /dev/ciss exists
[06:08] <vox754> Iced, better ask someone close first, then complete strangers...
[06:08] <ikonia> drake__: not yet - its still beta software
[06:08] <ikonia> Tron: I'm doing it from memory - so you could be right
[06:08] <Daynah> Iced, boot TO THE CD (as opposed to the harddrive, you'll have to go into the bios of your computer, and change the boot order) and then ubuntu will boot up and ask you if you want to install. It's easy from that point. To get into the bios is different for each omputer. I suggest as your computer juuuust starts to boot up, press all the F# buttons, and delete. Just try them all. One of them should work.
[06:08] <drake__> oh :( will the previous methods work?
[06:08] <ikonia> Tron: a quick google may give you the right path
[06:08] <Tron> so how do i change the root= option once i figgure it out
[06:08] <zmaster> soundray: kk
[06:08] <ikonia> drake__: don't know  its beta, probably not as the kenrel verion is different
[06:08] <Tron> google is how i found /dev/ida/c0d0
[06:08] <ikonia> Tron: its on the grub menu.lit
[06:09] <ikonia> lst
[06:09] <ikonia> menu.lst
[06:09] <rgl> ikonia, I still can't make my other pc boot :(
[06:09] <ikonia> and then in your fstab
[06:09] <Tron> alright, thanks
[06:09] <Tron> i'll try that out
[06:09] <ikonia> rgl: I can't help with that
[06:09] <deviantintegral> anyone here have experience with evms? Everything is working fine if I boot from an ubuntu livecd, but if I boot from the HD the volumes are detected as raw mdraid volumes instead of evms volumes
[06:09] <Iced> Let me ask one more question before I leave for lunch: When you install ubuntu does it have all your internet settings or do you have to do it manualluy?
[06:09] <ikonia> deviantintegral: the only time I've seen that is when the partition type is wrong
[06:09] <soundray> drake__: it installed the binary nvidia driver by default here, so it's probably going to do fglrx for you by default.
[06:09] <ikonia> Iced: you have to set them up
[06:10] <jessie^^> hey
[06:10] <jessie^^> I'm trying to build the latest alsa drivers from cvs
[06:10] <Iced> ikonia: Great
[06:10] <ikonia> Iced: windows doesn't do it for you
[06:10] <deviantintegral> Iced: unless you have a router, or an ISP which does DHCP. Then it should detect everything automatically.
[06:10] <jessie^^> I'm trying to build the latest alsa drivers from cvs but I keep getting an error
[06:10] <Secsefirot> hi
[06:10] <gizmo_the_great1> what has happened to Disk Manager is Edgy? No longer in System --> Administration?
[06:10] <ikonia> jessie^^: why are you building alsa
[06:10] <vox754> Iced, for most people the wired connection Ethernet is ready to go. Wireless may require configuration.
[06:11] <drake__> soundray: I am runing an ATI 1900 on 7.04 amd64 now but I am on vesa by default :(
[06:11] <deviantintegral> ikonia: hmm. Shouldn't the types just be standard linux partitions?
[06:11] <tbaur> you tell me ;)
[06:11] <jessie^^> ikonia: i need the -latest- drivers for my intel HDA
[06:11] <Iced> I have a wired ethernet connection
[06:11] <Daynah> Ikonia and Iced, it had it all set up for me... The only time it didn't set it up for me automatically was when I was installing in a wireless area with wpa (like vox754 said)
[06:11] <jessie^^> ikonia: the configure is dyign
[06:11] <loppa> whats that command for listing hardware? Thought it was lshw?
[06:11] <jessie^^> ikonia: http://pastebin.ca/371772
[06:11] <deviantintegral> loppa: lspci is also useful
[06:11] <vox754> Daynah, ok.
[06:11] <Iced> Okay, thanks everybody! See ya later!
[06:11] <ikonia> deviantintegral: no don't think so
[06:11] <vox754> gizmo_the_great1, for some reason they took it away. I still want to know why.
[06:12] <loppa> thanks.
[06:12] <soundray> drake__: oh... in that case you should probably just try out the edgy instructions and hope for the best. Make backups of changed files along the way.
[06:12] <gizmo_the_great1> vox754: how annoying
[06:12] <fazza> back
[06:12] <fazza> no im not
[06:12] <drake__> The ATi installer wont work? or is only for redhat and suse?
[06:12] <fazza> bye everyone
[06:12] <soundray> drake__: please go to #ubuntu+1 if you have more feisty questions btw.
[06:12] <ikonia> jessie^^: the headers are incompatible
[06:12] <vox754> gizmo_the_great1, not that rally a problem, as long as you care to learn a bit how to mount things with the terminal.
[06:13] <drake__> ok, thanks!
[06:13] <deviantintegral> ikonia: according to fdisk, all of the partitions are Id 83 and System 'Linux'
[06:13] <ikonia> deviantintegral: then there is no way mdadm should be able to pick them up
[06:13] <jessie^^> ikonia: what do i need to do to make them compatible?
[06:13] <gizmo_the_great1> vox754: indeed - I'm Ok with mounting etc but sometimes, when things are not working as expected, it's nice to have it. I use gparted sometimes too - just unsure why they removed it
[06:13] <ikonia> jessie^^: you can't
[06:13] <jessie^^> ikonia: I have the kernel headers package for my kernel installed
[06:13] <ikonia> jessie^^: they are incompatible
[06:13] <gizmo_the_great1> When a USB Drive is plugged in it is auto mounted at media/USB_DRIVE (in my case). However, where would I find it's physical listing, i.e. /dev/???
[06:13] <jessie^^> ikonia: how so?
[06:13] <ikonia> jessie^^: because they are
[06:14] <soundray> gizmo_the_great1: check with 'mount | grep USB_DRIVE'
[06:14] <gb__> hi there all
[06:14] <deviantintegral> ikonia: yeah, I was thinking that the md script in the initramfs was causing problems, but removing it didn't change anything
[06:14] <vox754> gizmo_the_great1, I used SUSE and was so used to mounting graphically that I really didn't understand anything. Now I'm using Ubuntu and is great.
[06:14] <ikonia> deviantintegral: if the partitions are not "fd" then they are not visible to mdadm
[06:14] <gizmo_the_great1> soundray: n eat - I need to memorise that one!! Thanks
[06:15] <ikonia> deviantintegral: must be something else
[06:15] <gizmo_the_great1> vox754: agreed. Ubuntu rocks!
[06:15] <gb__> helllo all :)
[06:15] <ikonia> gb__: we say you the first time you said hi
[06:15] <deviantintegral> ikonia: well that is strange as mdadm can see them (--detail shows appropriate info)
[06:15] <soundray> gizmo_the_great1: in that case, you will find 'mount' by itself educational, too ;)
[06:15] <Mena> Does any one know a good program to edit video files
[06:15] <ikonia> deviantintegral: that is strange
[06:16] <vox754> gizmo_the_great1, also take a look at "/etc/fstab" and "/etc/mtab" the second file list the current mounted filesystems.
[06:16] <gb__> ikonia: sorry did not see it
[06:16] <Mena> except Kino~_~
[06:16] <ikonia> gb__: we didn't say anything to you, we are waiting for your question
[06:16] <soundray> Mena: I've heard that cinelerra is good
[06:16] <gizmo_the_great1> vox754: I already knew about fstab - use it a lot - but did not know about mtab. V useful - thanks
[06:16] <gb__> no question here for now :)
[06:16] <vox754> !ask > gb__
[06:17] <gb__> just came to learn ubuntu
[06:17] <Mena> But its not supported right??
[06:17] <deviantintegral> ikonia: I think I might try forcing the initramfs to drop to a shell so I can examine things before things go to init.d scripts. As a stranger thing I noticed is that while initramfs sees /dev/evms/root (and mounts it), when I'm dropped to a shell b/c fsck can't find /media /root is gone
[06:17] <nixnoob> can someone link me a good guide to vnc tunneling through ssh/
[06:17] <piratepete> anyone installed Ubuntu on a macbook pro?
[06:17] <ikonia> deviantintegral: sounds a good call
[06:17] <ikonia> piratepete: just ask the question
[06:17] <soundray> Mena: there isn't a package in the repositories, if that's what you mean
[06:17] <deviantintegral> nixnoob: http://wiki.cs-club.org/KokaneeOffCampus
[06:17] <Mena> soundray , yes
[06:17] <piratepete> does Ubuntu work on a macbook pro?
[06:18] <wnoronha> join #drupal-support
[06:18] <nixnoob> deviantintegral thanks
[06:18] <ikonia> piratepete: yes
[06:18] <loppa> how do i tell which driver my wlan needs?
[06:18] <HyperDevil> i want to make a mirror and contribute to ubuntu: the wiki says: rsync://releases.ubuntu.com/releases/... but that command does not work to rsync the releases
[06:18] <ikonia> loppa: get the name of the hardware and google it
[06:18] <loppa> on it.
[06:18] <Tron> ikonia, where would menu.lst for grub be, looked in /boot/grub but theres no grub folder
[06:18] <ikonia> HyperDevil: id does work
[06:18] <vox754> piratepete, depends on the processor, video card, controllers, drivers, depends on many things. Details?
[06:18] <ikonia> Tron: then there is something very wrong
[06:18] <piratepete> how much disk space on the macbook would you partition for?
[06:18] <gizmo_the_great1> vox754: although, having said that, the content of mtab is the same as the stdout of 'mount', but nice to know the file is there
[06:18] <ikonia> piratepete: 10 gig home
[06:18] <soundray> Mena: they have their own package repository, though. Check out http://cvs.cinelerra.org/getting_cinelerra.php
[06:18] <ikonia> piratepete: its up to you though
[06:19] <gb__> nite all :)
[06:19] <gb__> bbl
[06:19] <Tron> ikonia i think i mentioned i get the error before i even get the os installed
[06:19] <vox754> gizmo_the_great1, it is always good to know
[06:19] <deviantintegral> piratepete: I know that ubuntu has good support on a macbook non-pro, but I just stuck mine in a VM. Parallels rocks!
[06:19] <ikonia> Tron: ooooh right
[06:19] <Tron> the installation doesnt even start
[06:19] <piratepete> ikonia: thanls
[06:19] <ikonia> Tron: you may need to drop in a driver for the smart arrays - as its 3rd party
[06:19] <gb__> ikonia:  later
[06:19] <Mena> soundray, ok :)
[06:19] <Tron> i get "no root file system is defined" during installation
[06:19] <HyperDevil> i want to make a mirror and contribute to ubuntu: the wiki says: rsync://releases.ubuntu.com/releases/... but that command does not work to rsync the releases
[06:19] <ikonia> Tron: I always had to for redhat installs
[06:19] <gizmo_the_great1> soundray: thanks for your help - helpful as always. vox754: thanks for your help too :-) Bye for now
[06:19] <ikonia> HyperDevil: that command works fine
[06:19] <Tron> ah okay
[06:20] <Tron> i'll give that a try
[06:20] <ubunt1> hey
[06:20] <ubunt1> someone here

[06:20] <vox754> !info lex
[06:20] <ubotu> Package lex does not exist in edgy, edgy-seveas

[06:23] <nowhere> hi, how can I get ati 9600 to work with dapper? Have tried two methods so far both resulting in black screen at some point during startup. No luck with troubleshooting steps found either. Any idea's?

[06:23] <ikonia> !ati >nowhere
[06:23] <deviantintegral> nowhere: I have a 9800pro all I did was install fglrx
[06:23] <deviantintegral> it was in the universe I think

[06:24] <kkerwin> Hi. I'm trying to install kqemu as per the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo. No modules are being built during the first step: "Installing Windows in QEmu with Feisty 7.04". What step am I missing?
[06:24] <vox754> mzuverink, what is that?
[06:24] <nowhere> thanks ikonia, reading it
[06:24] <comradec> is there a power option somewhere that can override both xset dpms, xorg.conf and xscreensaver for turning off the monitor?
[06:25] <vox754> kkerwin, don't use Feisty 7.04, it is not stable.
[06:25] <kkerwin> vox754: Understood. I just grabbed the qemu packages from that repository, and then immediately removed that repository from my sources.list
[06:25] <mzuverink> vox754, thats a scan modem output to determine type of modem in my lappy
[06:25] <Tron> ikonia, all i can find is red hat drivers on the hp website
[06:26] <soundray> comradec: yes, the power button on your monitor,,,
[06:26] <nowhere> ikonia: But do you think there is any way to get pass the black screen at start? Or will I have to reinstall again?
[06:26] <ikonia> Tron: yeah - doesn't look like its supported
[06:26] <House> can somene tell me how to use ndis wrapper
[06:26] <ikonia> nowhere: boot into safe mode
[06:26] <kkerwin> vox754: I am following the instructions as per the URL I sent. The kqemu package isn't available on edgy.

[06:26] <ltbarcly> how are fonts extracted from setup.exe for mstcorefonts?
[06:26] <House> i got the driver for my broadcom wirless chip
[06:27] <comradec> I think there is some kind of acpi setting or something somewhere that is overriding it

[06:28] <lucas_> does any one knows which package should I install to get the makeobj command
[06:28] <ikonia> lucas_: thats not a command that part of a gc build process
[06:28] <GionnyBoss> how can I add an application in the GNOME application menu? I add it, but it seems not to work... I can't see the icon
[06:29] <lucas_> ikonia:  ok if i miss that it means that i have to set up build-essential
[06:29] <ikonia> lucas_: there is nothing to "setup" just install build-essentials
[06:30] <lucas_> it's weird it's already installed
[06:30] <soundray> comradec: when you say ot'
[06:30] <soundray> comradec: when you say it's ACPI related...
[06:30] <ikonia> lucas_: your build is probably failing and not makine the makeobj command
[06:30] <soundray> comradec: do you think it's a buggy DSDT?

[06:31] <fotofl1> hi everyone... im using the version of Gaim that came with ubuntu, but apperntly its an old beta
[06:31] <fotofl1> how do i get the newest beta?
[06:31] <soundray> ltbarcly: I don't think they are. Are you looking for cabextract?
[06:32] <ikonia> Kresjah_laptop: your network is not setup

[06:33] <comradec> soundray, I think it has to do with with the blank, suspend, off values, I read in some forum acpi can load these values somewhere from one of it's configs or something at boot, so it would always override xset, xscreensaver, or xorg.conf
[06:33] <fotofl1> ikonia: apt-get update gaim?
[06:34] <fab5freddy> does anybody have experience install a logitech quickcam in ubuntu dapper?
[06:34] <ikonia> fotofl1: upgrade

[06:36] <roxxy> anybody know how to setup a matrox dual head vga pci card?
[06:36] <Jerr|sd> because I set up the RAID with the nvidia RAID thing (BIOS)

[06:38] <ikonia> francois no

[06:40] <royel> I need to install glibc an glibc-dev anyone know the correct name for those using apt-get
[06:40] <soundray> Jerr|sd: Linux has excellent software RAID support
[06:40] <luco> roxxy: don't remember exactly, but you need, if I remember well, 'hal' driver
[06:40] <ikonia> Jerr|sd: it has great software and great true hardware raid support - just not crappy windows fake raid support
[06:40] <NevroPus> anyone knows of some player/addon in ubuntu so that I can play .rmvb files?
[06:40] <soundray> Jerr|sd: when it comes to hardware RAID, Linux has to rely on the manufacturer to either provide a driver, or specifications so that a driver can be written

[06:41] <soundray> Jerr|sd: now it may well be that yours is supported, but you'd have to find out from nvidia or from google
[06:41] <soundray> Jerr|sd: no, sorry
[06:41] <ikonia> Jerr|sd: I'd told you - the support is poor
[06:42] <Mr`Me> this compaq smart array issue is so irritating
[06:42] <Mr`Me> i cant even get ubunto installed
[06:42] <ikonia> Mr`Me: because hte driver isn't available
[06:42] <Mr`Me> cpqarray is the right driver
[06:42] <Mr`Me> and its loaded
[06:42] <Mr`Me> just the kernel doesnt work with it
[06:42] <soundray> Jerr|sd: my personal inclination would be to always install Linux in a non-RAID partition, and only use RAIDs for data storage
[06:42] <Mr`Me> i need the 2.4 kernel apparently
[06:42] <fotofl1> ikonia: i just did apt-get upgrade gaim, and i think it upgrade everything but gaim
[06:43] <soundray> !enter | Mr`Me
[06:43] <ubotu> Mr`Me: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!

[06:43] <Renu23> help-after recovery mode i found this the root flesystem is mounted in read only mode
[06:43] <Mr`Me> cpqarray is the proper driver
[06:43] <ikonia> fotofl1: maybe your on the latest version
[06:43] <Mr`Me> and it is loaded
[06:43] <ikonia> Mr`Me: but its for the wrong kernel
[06:43] <miku> hi to all, I am doing the big step can anyone to help me? I need to know if my wifi PCMCIA at-wcl452 is compatible with ubuntu 6.10
[06:43] <ikonia> miku: google is your friend
[06:43] <fotofl1> ikonia: not according to the people at #gaim
[06:43] <Mr`Me> so how do i make a 6.10 install cd with the proper kernel?
[06:44] <x11fontproblem> my fonts are in /usr/share/fonts/X11 but my xorg.conf file says /usr/share/X11/fonts.  wtf?
[06:44] <miku> not is mine
[06:44] <Renu23> can anybody tell me why?
[06:44] <soundray> Renu23: this is usually an alarm signal. Backup your data before you try anything else
[06:44] <facugaich> miku: you can also try to use the Live CD
[06:44] <miku> sorry
[06:44] <ikonia> Mr`Me: I'll say it again if you want - I can't find support for it under ubuntu
[06:44] <Renu23> i back up everything
[06:44] <miku> ok
[06:44] <padge> What do I need to do to play an encrypted DVD?
[06:44] <ikonia> fotofl1: I said the latest version for your ubuntu version

[06:44] <ompaul> !codecs > padge
[06:44] <Renu23> and i can not write on disk
[06:44] <ompaul> padge, please read the message from the bot
[06:45] <Jerr|sd> soundray, ikonia: thanks. I just read on what fakeraid was. I didn't realize that it was dirty like that
[06:45] <miku> is there a compatible hardware list
[06:45] <ikonia> !hcl >miku
[06:45] <ikonia> miku: search google
[06:46] <soundray> Renu23: boot from a live CD and run fsck on that partition. Use 'man fsck', you will probably use something like 'e2fsck -y /dev/hda1' (please don't use this suggestion uncritically)

[06:48] <NevroPus> anyone knows of some player/addon in ubuntu so that I can play .rmvb files?

[06:51] <metal03> Hi everyone, I need help updating wine on Edgy64!
[06:51] <evian> anyone know how to edit the order of the grub menu entries?
[06:51] <ikonia> Timw: ok - so try it out - not come in here asking people ot fix it for you
[06:51] <ikonia> evian: edit menu.lst
[06:51] <varsendaggr> building software is for the begginer
[06:51] <Timw> ikonia: i have tried walking but in order to play nsv files i had to do all this
[06:51] <ikonia> varsendaggr: really ?
[06:51] <finalbeta> evian: /boot/grub/menu.lst or something
[06:51] <soundray> Timw: you will want to use 'sudo' for the last installation step
[06:51] <ikonia> varsendaggr: I disagree
[06:51] <soundray> !sudo > Timw
[06:51] <gravemind> how do I set up static IP addresses?
[06:51] <evian> thanks folks!
[06:51] <Sapristi> Hiya folks. I'm trying to set up a remote X-connection to my HTPC _which is running in terminal mode_. I've had little luck using the guide at post #7 at http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=523864 (maybe because the vncviewer under Ubuntu seems to be buggy).  Could anybody help me out a little bit here?
[06:51] <varsendaggr> how do you think we got software...
[06:51] <ikonia> gravemind: use the network manager from the system--->administration menu
[06:52] <elekis> hi all
[06:52] <ikonia> varsendaggr: install it from pre-compiled packages built by people who understand what they are typing
[06:52] <soundray> gravemind: System-Administration-Networking-Properties
[06:52] <piotrek> ikonia very thx ;)
[06:52] <gravemind> soundray, ikonia, cool, I see it
[06:52] <sproingie> hm.. does the fglrx driver work with an X1950?
[06:52] <Timw> all i had to do was put sudo in front of it
[06:52] <SpacePuppy> Sapristi: if it's running in terminal mode (ie xserver is not running) then what xserver are you trying to connect to?
[06:52] <Timw> nice
[06:52] <ikonia> gravemind: see what ?
[06:53] <Timw> i am figuring this out more than i thought
[06:53] <ikonia> the network tool
[06:53] <gravemind> soundray, ikonia, what do I put for the IP, and subnet addresses
[06:53] <varsendaggr> ikonia, i build packages before i even knew how to apt-get.....    apt-get is great....   but if someone is wanting to build packages   i think they should.
[06:53] <Timw> so in order to get access just put sudo
[06:53] <ikonia> varsendaggr: I think they should if they know the basics
[06:53] <soundray> Timw: yes, that's the idea. The trouble with your approach is that mplayer will now be hard to update or remove.
[06:53] <ikonia> gravemind: that menu should be quite self explanitory
[06:53] <Sapristi> spacepuppy: I got the impression that running a xserver at the remote computer is not necessary (see the link), as long as there is a server running on the client. It happens over vnc, u c
[06:53] <varsendaggr> ikonia, it also helps them understand thier system   which i really great
[06:53] <Timw> i know
[06:54] <ikonia> varsendaggr: I don't think it does
[06:54] <soundray> Timw: that's why people here would rather support package installations than compiling software
[06:54] <ikonia> varsendaggr: blindly typing commands they have no idea about
[06:54] <metal03> Hey, I'm still fairly new to Linux and I'm trying to update wine...  can anyone help?
[06:54] <Timw> soundray: but hopefully i don't need to update or remove it if it plays the files i need to, thanks a bunch
[06:54] <fredl> whoah, xbgmsharp rockz :)
[06:54] <miku> I have found another usb wifi by Sitecom WL-142. is this one at least compatible?
[06:54] <gravemind> ikonia: I don't know which to put. Should I go to ifconfig and see what I'm using now, or something like that?
[06:54] <ikonia> Timw: just be aware it may break all your other audio visual apps
[06:54] <betatux> metal03, what's the problem ?
[06:54] <ikonia> gravemind: how can you not know what to put - you want to put a static ip in - so put the ip in
[06:55] <metal03> betatux : I have an older version of wine and I need to update it...  how?
[06:55] <varsendaggr> well   blindly tyoing commands    isn't exactly building software
[06:55] <acid_phyre> anyone know where there is a fast download site of the ubuntu dvd?
[06:55] <ikonia> varsendaggr: exactly
[06:55] <betatux> metal03, did you install wine from source or from repository ?
[06:55] <ikonia> acid_phyre: try the mirrors
[06:55] <elekis> hi all
[06:55] <varsendaggr> who want's to build software?
[06:55] <gravemind> ikonia: I don't know which address to use, that's the thing. I know that it's something like 192.168.1.x but I don't know what the last number should be
[06:55] <varsendaggr> i'll   help them
[06:55] <acid_phyre> none of them can even pull 100kb for me
[06:56] <acid_phyre> its weird
[06:56] <ikonia> gravemind: then why do you want a static ip addres
[06:56] <x11fontproblem> Hi guys, in Edgy are X11 fonts normally in /usr/share/X11/fonts?

[06:56] <metal03> Betatux : Not sure...  All I know is I had trouble with installing it cause I'm running an Edgy64...
[06:56] <vox754> acid_phyre, torrent? 100 seeds...
[06:56] <soundray> !fonts | x11fontproblem

[06:56] <choongii> hello. looking for a gnome app (maybe frontend) to compress .wav to .ogg. any ideas?
[06:56] <fredl> gravemind, you might want to install the UPNP daemon for gameport forwarding.
[06:56] <zachalekos> anybody knows a guide to get hibernate working in ubuntu?
[06:56] <soundray> oops, sorry ompaul. It's a bad habit, I'll work on it.
[06:57] <ikonia> soundray: tough to break !
[06:57] <Sapristi> Nobody running vnc here? Bummer!
[06:57] <metal03> Betatux : Plus, back then I had NO IDEA what I was doing...   hehehe!
[06:57] <fredl> Sapristi, I have, why what's your problem?
[06:57] <strobedream> hey guys
[06:57] <strobedream> I managed to do something really annoying
[06:57] <strobedream> ....
[06:57] <vox754> zachalekos, you on laptop?
[06:57] <ikonia> strobedream: just ask
[06:57] <zachalekos> yep
[06:58] <fredl> strobedream, we all do every now and again :P
[06:58] <betatux> metal03 , if you do : dpkg -l | grep wine , is there a notice about wine or not ? if not , you've installed wine from source and you probably want to uninstall it by running 'make uninstall' in the wine source directory
[06:58] <strobedream> I put every stupid package in my repository on hold
[06:58] <fredl> mwuhaha
[06:58] <ikonia> on hold ?
[06:58] <soundray> Sapristi: can you rephrase your question please
[06:58] <strobedream> well in hold status
[06:58] <fredl> so you're not getting many updates huh? :)
[06:58] <strobedream> and now when I do a dist-upgrade it laughs at me
[06:58] <miku> Sitecom WL-142 is compatible?
[06:58] <strobedream> none
[06:59] <strobedream> any mass 'unhold' commands
[06:59] <Sapristi> fredl: I'm trying to open a remote connection to my HTPC which is running in terminal mode (and that's the way I want it). I tried to set up the connection as stated in post #7 http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=523864, but it fails in many ways - maybe cuz the vncserver under ubuntu seems to be buggy (according to various sources)
[06:59] <gravemind> DHCP gives different ip addresses each time you connect to it, I need one that will always stay the same
[06:59] <gravemind> ifconfig says I'm using this: 192.168.1.37: so that's what I'm going to put in the IP field, k?
[06:59] <metal03> Betatux : I get a message : "ii  wine      0.9.28-1         Package created with checkinstall 1.6.0"
[06:59] <strobedream> so has anyone done this?
[06:59] <Sapristi> My question is, how should I go about to open the vnc-connection to the computer running in terminal mode. Or, actually, any remote desktop will do just fine.
[06:59] <fredl> Sapristi, wait, is the vnc server the same as enabling the remote desktop?
[07:00] <strobedream> I read through the man pages and cant find anything
[07:00] <vox754> zachalekos, I can't do much for you. All I've heard is it sometimes just don't work, other times you need to add some line like resume=<your swap device> to the kernel line to make it work.
[07:00] <fredl> gravemind, you want UPNP on your router box, is that a Linux box, your router?
[07:00] <Sapristi> fredl: Not necessarily. They involve different software/servers.
[07:00] <betatux> metal03, ok , that's good , means it's not installed from source , uninstall it first by running : sudo apt-get remove wine
[07:00] <fredl> Sapristi, oh okay in that case I might be mistaken. I can do remote desktop using vncviewer just fine.
[07:00] <Sapristi> I have succeeded in opening a remote desktop, but, the remote computer (the server) is running in terminal mode.
[07:01] <zachalekos> alright, thanks  a lot
[07:01] <nixnoob> hey guys i have a big problem
[07:01] <fredl> Sapristi, ah ok, well in that case I'm clueless as I've never done that before.
[07:01] <skywalker> anyone in here with a sound problem besides me?

[07:04] <metal03> Betatux : I'm running a 64 bit Edgy...  it feels like the problem I had b4
[07:04] <soundray> Sapristi: when you start vncserver, it says something like "New 'X' desktop is hostname:1". So on the client, you do 'vncviewer hostname:1'
[07:04] <kelsin> Sapristi: or do you want a GUI remote desktop off of the server?
[07:04] <vox754> skywalker, bad luck. Laptop? PC? cards?

[07:09] <hfy> but generally what will be the result more fps or lower?
[07:09] <soundray> Sapristi: look at $HOME/.vnc/hostname:1.log to find out why
[07:09] <strobedream> there are so many different ways to set things up and various system calls I cant tell you
[07:09] <Agiofws> hey does apt-get in ubuntu use the deb repository ?
[07:09] <infidel> dvdjack, did you try to ask in #firefox?

[07:10] <hfy> by how much more fps? approx
[07:10] <dvdjack> txt
[07:10] <vox754> skywalker, I read your thread. You could try going back to the other Linux and find out which drivers it was using.
[07:10] <Sapristi> soundray: could not open default font 'fixed
[07:10] <Agiofws> is there gpm for  UBNUTU ?
[07:10] <skywalker> I dident post that
[07:10] <infidel> dvdjack, are you trying to import bookmarks?
[07:10] <dvdjack> yes
[07:10] <dvdjack> but is not work
[07:10] <soundray> Agiofws: please read the private message from ubotu
[07:10] <dvdjack> i dont found any thing in book
[07:10] <hfy> by how much more fps? approx
[07:10] <dvdjack> marks
[07:10] <skywalker> what do you mean other Linux?
[07:11] <skywalker> vox754
[07:11] <Agiofws> soundray:  how do i apt-get it ?
[07:11] <vox754> skywalker, well, mmm, you said you tried other Linux distros?
[07:11] <Agiofws> its does not display in apt-cache search
[07:11] <soundray> Sapristi: I think you have to setup some minimal X stuff to have the fonts etc.
[07:11] <skywalker> yes but their old
[07:11] <soundray> !repos > Agiofws
[07:11] <strobedream> hfy: I think I got like 10 fps
[07:11] <sudoroot> infidel did u check my pastebin yet?
[07:11] <infidel> sudoroot,  looking
[07:11] <ikonia> Agiofws: check all the repos
[07:11] <Sapristi> soundray: At the moment I'm experimenting with the server running X (Gnome)
[07:12] <Sapristi> soudnray: So everything should be peachy...
[07:12] <gravemind> vox754, I had a problem with my sound not being detected too - has he tried searching google for linux drivers for his particular card?
[07:12] <sudoroot> thanx
[07:12] <skywalker> gravemind I will try that now thanks
[07:12] <vox754> skywalker, It doesn't matter. It probably is possible to import the drivers, it is open source what makes this possible
[07:12] <miku> Can I use NdisWrapper to connect my laptop with a sitecom wl-142?
[07:12] <Agiofws> i did
[07:12] <dvdjack> infidel what i can do
[07:12] <ikonia> miku: you told me the card wasn't supported
[07:12] <Agiofws> apt-cache search gpm
[07:12] <ikonia> Agiofws: then it may not exist
[07:12] <Agiofws> ikonia:
[07:12] <strobedream> hfy: but I didn't spend a lot of time setting things up nicely.
[07:12] <vox754> gravemind, I don't know but I recall him being around here for over a month.
[07:13] <miku> do you know NdisWrapper?
[07:13] <ikonia> Agiofws: do you have all the repo's enabled
[07:13] <ikonia> miku: only a little as I never use it
[07:13] <miku> works in ubuntu?
[07:13] <Agiofws> so stupid ubuntu does not have gpm ?
[07:13] <skywalker> you got me confused with someone els
[07:13] <gravemind> skywalker: good luck: I'm not sure how I ended up installing my sound, but at least I have it
[07:13] <ikonia> Agiofws: have you enabled all the repo's
[07:13] <skywalker> I just install ubuntu
[07:13] <soundray> Agiofws: yes, it does. Ubotu just told you so
[07:13] <soundray> Agiofws: "In component universe, is optional"
[07:13] <skywalker> Iam new here
[07:13] <vox754> miku, ndiswrapper works, but I couldn't find your card on the List. Probably you need to give the chipset info.
[07:13] <Agiofws> ikonia:  apt-get upgrade ?
[07:13] <skywalker> man
[07:13] <ikonia> Agiofws: no enable all the repos
[07:14] <Agiofws> how ?
[07:14] <ikonia> Agiofws: if you read the docs as I've told you 10 times you'd know
[07:14] <ikonia> its not "stupid ubuntu" its "lazy user can't be bothered to read"
[07:14] <vox754> !who > skywalker
[07:14] <soundray> Agiofws: we cannot spoon-feed you everything.
[07:14] <gravemind> vox754: when the kernel upgraded to -11, I couldn't hear anything, so now I just boot into -10 because the sound is installed there and I don't know how to install it
[07:14] <bruenig> Agiofws, pastebin the output of "cat /etc/apt/sources.list"
[07:14] <DaveTarmac> I'm having some serious trouble getting my Ubuntu box accessing the internet through a D-Link DWL-G520 WLAN card. Can anyone help?
[07:14] <ikonia> soundray: and he's got the balls to say ubuntu is "stupid"
[07:14] <bruenig> !pastebin
[07:14] <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)
[07:15] <soundray> bruenig: please don't undermine our efforts to make this punter do his homework
[07:15] <bruenig> ok
[07:15] <vox754> gravemind, the same thing happened to me with ndiswrapper, so I just recompiled. In your case I guess you may somehow reinstall.
[07:15] <bruenig> read the docs dammit
[07:15] <lsutiger> hey peeps
[07:15] <Agiofws> whats it called
[07:15] <ikonia> Agiofws: search the docs on ubuntu.com
[07:15] <Agiofws> enabling repository ?
[07:15] <ikonia> Agiofws: as I've told you 10+ times
[07:16] <fotoflo> what is Nautilus sendto and how do i disable it?
[07:16] <vox754> Agiofws, what is that you wanted? gdm?
[07:16] <ikonia> Agiofws: if you'd done what I asked earlier I'd be more willing to help
[07:16] <soundray> Agiofws: read the private messages from ubotu
[07:16] <skywalker> lol Iam not a lazy user
[07:16] <bruenig> !repositories
[07:16] <lsutiger> I booted from a ubuntu cd, but my wirless does not work.

[07:16] <lsutiger> suggestions?
[07:16] <miku> c' qualche italiano che pu aiutarmi ?
[07:16] <ikonia> but your lazy approach makes me not want to spoon feed you
[07:16] <soundray> vox754: please don't undermine our efforts to make this punter do his homework
[07:16] <bruenig> !wifi > lsutiger
[07:16] <ikonia> !it >miku
[07:16] <nixnoob> hey whenever i run something that needs root permissions i get the error  Unable to copy the user's Xauthorization file anyone know how to fix?
[07:16] <gravemind> vox754: if you were able to install something once but you don't know how you did, is there a way to reverse engineer and find out how you installed it?
[07:16] <lsutiger> que?
[07:16] <ricky_ds> Hi everybody. I'm using dapper and just read that firefox 1.5 won't get any security updates beyond April 2007. Since Dapper is a LTS, are we finally going to see firefox 2.0 in the repositories??
[07:16] <ikonia> ricky_ds: don't know
[07:16] <ikonia> ask in the development channel
[07:17] <vox754> soundray, okay. I was just curious. It's yours.
[07:17] <dvdjack> another prpbelm
[07:17] <bruenig> ricky_ds, probably not, you can install it yourself though, it is pretty easy
[07:17] <dvdjack> how i can play movie avi
[07:17] <dbr> Are the kernic-panic messages logged anywhere?
[07:17] <vox754> gravemind, I don't think so. Maybe there is.
[07:17] <ikonia> bruenig: not without breaking the repo dependencies
[07:17] <wiz> when setting up ndiswrapper, after you've setup the driver with ndiswrapper -i driver.inf, and ndiswrapper -l shows driver and hardware present, is modprobe ndiswrapper not enough? It's telling me invalid argument
[07:17] <bruenig> dvdjack, avi is a container, it could have many different formats, you probably need some codecs

[07:17] <keniaz> Hi all...I am newby...what is ubuntu?
[07:18] <ikonia> !goodbotuse >bruenig
[07:18] <ricky_ds> bruenig: I'm not thinking of myself but on people like my dad or whoever just trust the update mechanism
[07:18] <bruenig> ikonia, no you install it /opt and redirect the /usr/bin/firefox symlink
[07:18] <nixnoob> dvdjack goto synaptic and remove totem player and replace it with totem -xine
[07:18] <ikonia> bruenig: no - but other apps will not link against it
[07:18] <soundray> vox754: really, this guy has been repeating very basic questions that have been answered several times, then goes on to insult our favourite OS...
[07:18] <TLP-CentDuo> ....can someone help me get my dvds playing on linux?
[07:18] <bruenig> why do they have | username if you aren't supposed to use it
[07:18] <TLP-CentDuo> i can play all css encrypted dvds
[07:18] <TLP-CentDuo> but not finalfantasy 7 advent children
[07:18] <vox754> soundray, yep. I kind of missed your conversation because I was reading someone else.
[07:18] <nixnoob>  hey whenever i run something that needs root permissions i get the error  Unable to copy the user's Xauthorization file anyone know how to fix?
[07:19] <ikonia> nixnoob: change the permissions on it
[07:19] <ikonia> nixnoob: its in the users home dir with a . infront of it
[07:19] <bruenig> ikonia, what do you mean other apps won't link against it
[07:19] <soundray> bruenig: I use 'punter' as a very mildly disparaging synonym of 'customer' ;)
[07:19] <ikonia> bruenig: so launching say a video file from within it - won't launch player
[07:19] <HymnToLife> ikonia, root can't run GUI apps (by default)
[07:19] <nixnoob> ikonia chmod +wrx .Xauthority?
[07:19] <HymnToLife> run them as yourself with gksudo
[07:19] <ikonia> HymnToLife: yup
[07:19] <katami> Yeah
[07:19] <Phasor> I just want to say a big thank you to everyone who has helped me in this chatroom. I would never have got Ubuntu 6.10 installed if it wasn't for you. Thanks!
[07:19] <TLP-CentDuo> ....i cant get final fantasy 7 advent children to play. (not encrypted with css-its encrypted with arcoss (sony protection))
[07:19] <bruenig> ikonia, you need to link over the plugins of course
[07:19] <katami> Unbuntu doesn't like my pc
[07:19] <rat1101>  /whois rat1101
[07:19] <gravemind> nixnoob: did you put sudo in front of it?
[07:20] <TLP-CentDuo> can someone please help
[07:20] <ikonia> bruenig: how about just stick with the ubuntu supported process
[07:20] <katami> It's at step 2 of 6 installing and it froze at setting the time
[07:20] <rat1101> oops
[07:20] <nixnoob> hang on
[07:20] <HymnToLife> ikonia, as yourself, gksudo gedit
[07:20] <skywalker> Iam doing something wrong
[07:20] <HymnToLife> or anything else of course
[07:20] <nixnoob> it says no such file or directory
[07:20] <GQ> hello every1, can some one give me a little help with changing my screen resolution? it's stuck on 1024.. Dell Latitude X1 Laptop (Intel Pentium M 733 Processor, 1,10GHz, 2MB L2 cache, 400MHz)
[07:20] <vox754> TLP-CentDuo, that seems to be proprietary stuff, and hence Linux-difficult.
[07:20] <ikonia> HymnToLife: I didn't tell anyone to not use sudo
[07:20] <Kaso> ikonia i'd like to say thanks for that link you gave be earlier i got my bash script working just how i wanted
[07:20] <ikonia> Kaso: no problem
[07:20] <bruenig> ikonia, have you installed 2.0 in /opt, I have and it worked fine, no problems with other apps and such
[07:20] <ikonia> bruenig: well done
[07:20] <nixnoob> ikonia, no such file or dir...
[07:20] <HymnToLife> ikonia, never mind, I didn't read carefullyt enough :p
[07:21] <soundray> TLP-CentDuo: if it's got some advanced copy protection, it's probably a lost case. Return it to the shop if you feel like making a point
[07:21] <gravemind> nixnoob: I don't know how to fix that, I guess you have to find where .Xauthority is
[07:21] <ikonia> HymnToLife: no problem, its a fast moving channel
[07:21] <TLP-CentDuo> ...
[07:21] <TLP-CentDuo> damn.
[07:21] <HymnToLife> nixnoob, run your app as yourself with gksudo, not from a root shell
[07:21] <bruenig> noon on sunday is the busy time
[07:21] <vox754> HymnToLife, ikonia is an expert, you can teach him little.
[07:21] <HymnToLife> and not with sudo either
[07:21] <ikonia> vox754: not at all
[07:21] <ikonia> lots to learn
[07:22] <nixnoob> HymnToLife i cant run synaptic or anything from the administration menu
[07:22] <skywalker> vox754 thanks
[07:22] <ikonia> nixnoob: what happens when you try
[07:22] <nixnoob> it doesnt ask for password it gives me that error
[07:22] <nixnoob> about Xauthority
[07:22] <ubunt1> hey is there someone tr it supergrub
[07:22] <ikonia> nixnoob: are you using alt+f2
[07:22] <katami> Thanks for ignoring me, have a nice day
[07:22] <TLP-CentDuo> vox754, yes, i know it is proprietary stuff, but there has to be something...windows can play it fine
[07:22] <vox754> TLP-CentDuo, there is nothing wrong with having to spend some money for something proprietary you really want... Good luck.
[07:22] <ikonia> katami: you're welcome
[07:22] <ubunt1> it is for recovery after the reinstall of Windows
[07:22] <vox754> skywalker, you fixed it?
[07:22] <TLP-CentDuo> ...lol
[07:22] <gravemind> nixnoob: post everything you're doing to pastebin, maybe that will help
[07:23] <bruenig> nixnoob, .Xauthority is in home
[07:23] <nixnoob> Im telling you that .Xauthority is MISSING.
[07:23] <bruenig> nixnoob, you can just delete it and restart x, should fix it
[07:23] <soundray> TLP-CentDuo: maybe run the Windows player software in wine?
[07:23] <ikonia> nixnoob: that shouldn't be a problem - something else is wrong
[07:23] <TLP-CentDuo> i REFUSE to use windows just to play a sony encrypted dvd.
[07:23] <nixnoob> bruenig thank you i will restart x now
[07:23] <ikonia> nixnoob: do you want help or not
[07:23] <vox754> ikonia, sarcasm is sometimes necessary...
[07:23] <TLP-CentDuo> soundray...lemme check
[07:23] <ikonia> vox754: sorry - I missed the sarcasm
[07:25] <TLP-CentDuo> soundray, nope, doesnt work
[07:25] <TLP-CentDuo> damn.
[07:25] <nixnoob> breunig, thank you it worked.
[07:25] <wiz> How can I make a bash script run on boot?
[07:25] <soundray> TLP-CentDuo: no swearing please - we share your frustration
[07:25] <ikonia> wiz: make it into a boot script
[07:25] <soundray> wiz: call it from /etc/rc.local
[07:25] <ikonia> or part of rc.local
[07:26] <vox754> !startup
[07:26] <ubotu> To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup
[07:26] <skywalker> no vox754 but Iam useing the force and maybe this will work because I haet microsoft it doesnt work for me anymore xp keeps crashing and Iam tired os loseing my info all the time so now Iam just  going to use liniux I had a min expercence with it but I can styll do it and yes Iam a bit of a lazy user because Iam not a that much osf a linux newbie vox745
[07:26] <techie1> my windows xp pro partitions are in Fat rather than NTF is that normal? If so can I use it like that to install ubuntu in a double boot?
[07:26] <narmataru> hello, where can I found package for subversion 1.4.3 for ubuntu dapper ? thanks
[07:26] <ikonia> techie1: it doesn't care about your windows partition as it doesn't acces it
[07:26] <soundray> TLP-CentDuo: you could try the various DVD rippers out there
[07:26] <bruenig> !info dvdrip
[07:26] <ubotu> dvdrip: perl front end for transcode. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1:0.98.1-0.1ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 718 kB, installed size 2084 kB
[07:26] <nixnoob> techie ubuntu will resize the partition and install itself it doesnt matter
so how do I do then my dual boot with ubuntu?
[07:27] <soundray> techie1: it's unusual, but you can still use the Ubuntu desktop CD to install a dual-boot setup
[07:27] <ikonia> !dualboot >techie1
[07:27] <vox754> skywalker, wow. Well, welcome. Everything you learn you can teach it later, so stick around.
[07:27] <nixnoob> techie, put the cd in drive and boot from it
[07:27] <techie1> hold on let me check to see how much I have.
[07:27] <wiz> soundray, right now my rc.local just has exit 0, can I just put /usr/src/script.sh in the line above that for it to work?
[07:27] <DaveTarmac> this might sound like a stupid question, but is there a reason that my out-of-the-box install of Ubuntu 6.10 isn't recognising the 'ipconfig' command?
[07:27] <skywalker> thanks
[07:27] <nixnoob> then install and ubuntu will install grub and you will be able to chose which partition at boot time
[07:27] <soundray> wiz: yes
[07:27] <wiz> kk
[07:28] <yomm> dave : try ifconfig
[07:28] <DaveTarmac> ok, brb
[07:28] <soundray> wiz: except that your script should be in /usr/local/bin/. Make sure it's got execution permissions for root
[07:28] <TLP-CentDuo> soundray: I'll see if i can rip it to my HD then play it
[07:28] <soundray> TLP-CentDuo: it's a long shot, but I can't think of anything else
[07:28] <ikonia> I foresee the term hd becoming a problem when high def becomes more the norm
[07:28] <DaveTarmac> brilliant, thanks yomm

[07:29] <dromer> hi, I have  Starlight StarScan scanner, how can I get it to work?

[07:29] <DaveTarmac> i'm just trying to get my gwl-g520 wlan card working, but so far nadda
[07:29] <wiz> soundray, if I alias wlan0 to my prism2_usb driver, when I modprobe prism2 it'll set it up as wlan0 right?

[07:29] <crazy_penguin> !tell crazy_penguin pastebin
[07:29] <techie1> Ok I have 55.86 fat with 24.17 G free. Will the ubuntu ask me for how much space? If so is it referring to free space during the install?
[07:29] <DaveTarmac> Atherons or something
[07:30] <soundray> wiz: not sure what you mean by alias. Look at /etc/iftab
[07:30] <DaveTarmac> i've been trying to get the MadWiFi driver working for it, but i'm having a bit of a job withit.
[07:30] <gkffyji> Ubuntu rocked until i tried to change screen resolution now all i get is the terminal window. when i try to startx to start the windoing engine i get this error " no screens found
[07:30] <gkffyji>  xio: fatal io error 104 (Connection Reset by peer) on x server ":0.0"."
[07:30] <nixnoob> techie it will find the amount of free space of your HDD and then you can choose how much of it to allocate to ubunty

[07:33] <bruenig> techie1, it has a bunch of protocols and irc
[07:33] <vox754> DaveTarmac, those pages tell you if someone has made the wireless card work, but the steps really depend on which chipset you have and which drivers it needs.
[07:33] <LordKeiden> soundray, will that require a network connection?
[07:33] <balor> How do I enable VDSO in the latest Feisty 2.6.20 kernel?
[07:33] <techie1> I tried it before and is similar to yahoo messenger
[07:33] <nixnoob> There is nothing wrong with gaim.
[07:33] <techie1> I did not know you could go from there to here!

[07:36] <ubotu> acid_phyre: 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.

[07:36] <Saviq> yeniklasor: what editor?
[07:36] <nixnoob> does ubuntu support dvd playback with the vanilla install?
[07:36] <IndyGunFreak> acid_phyre: usually if you're having install probs, the alternate install cd will get you through it

[07:41] <scienceboy> probably
[07:41] <fotoflo> in a few years
[07:41] <nixnoob> i agree will fotoflo
[07:41] <IndyGunFreak> acid_phyre: its linked on the same page as the normal install..., just choose the alternate install cd
[07:41] <scienceboy> another question - which java package do i install?
[07:41] <fotoflo> can anyone help me? ive downloaded the latest .deb file for gaim but it conflicts with already installed package "gaim-data", if i un-install that, it says dependency unsatisfiable (like my last girlfriend)

[07:42] <scienceboy> actually, nvrm. i know which one
[07:42] <sudoroot> people what u advise java 5 or 6?
[07:42] <egyn> soundray: I will look into that. I can disable it in bios but that does not seem to solve the problem.
[07:42] <bruenig> AMD-, perhaps sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev
[07:42] <nixnoob> Did techie1 ever come back?
[07:43] <fotoflo> vox: the new one has QQ support, and I need that
[07:43] <acid_phyre> that will be much better then getting the dvd
[07:43] <vox754> yeniklasor, I don't know if all that can be done during install. Why didn't you do it.
[07:43] <soundray> egyn: you could also check out Bug #43961 for suggestions
[07:43] <acid_phyre> which i was downlaoding

[07:43] <IndyGunFreak> anyone know when Firefox is going to update its Linux version?
[07:43] <nixnoob> lol
[07:44] <Merlin_> hello, have a question concerning replacing an existing distro with ubuntu
[07:44] <bruenig> IndyGunFreak, it is as up to date as the windows
[07:44] <soundray> egyn: in some systems, a buggy DSDT prevents shutdown. You can fix DSDTs using iasl, but it's quite involved
[07:44] <Faust-C> Merlin_: ok
[07:44] <fotoflo> vox754, with the ex girlfriend, complete uninstall was the best option
[07:44] <metal03> Betatux : Still there?
[07:44] <AMD-> bruenig: any way to tell it to install all dependencies too
[07:44] <acid_phyre> ty i found it
[07:44] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: windows firefox went through an upgrade yesterday...
[07:44] <Merlin_> can partition magic reformat the partition for me?
[07:44] <fotoflo> vox754, but with gaim, i need an upgrade
[07:44] <IndyGunFreak> made it something like 2.02 or something like that
[07:44] <fotoflo> the ex couldnt be upgraded... had to be replaced
[07:44] <nixnoob> install the windows version with wine.
[07:44] <nixnoob> lol
[07:44] <bruenig> IndyGunFreak, if there was no linux put out then that would be because it only fixed windows bugs, which has happened before
[07:44] <vox754> fotoflo, I'm sure there is a way to check dependencies, try "man apt-get" or "man aptitude" I've read it somewhere. VERY funny.
[07:45] <acid_phyre> 2.0.0.2 yea
[07:45] <IndyGunFreak> nixnoob: uh no
[07:45] <soundray> Merlin_: unnecessary. The installation procedure will take care of it.
[07:45] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: that could be..
[07:45] <nixnoob> indygunfreak it was a joke.
[07:45] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: i didn't actually see what the update was, but you might be right
[07:45] <bruenig> AMD-, what do you mean, it won't compile if you don't have the dependencies
[07:45] <fotoflo> i think i need to upgrade the gaim-data package as well, but apt isnt working for this particular beta of gaim... not in the repositories yet
[07:45] <AMD-> aptitude is what i was looking for thanks
[07:45] <acid_phyre> so the alternate cd is like the install of 6.06 in txt mode?
[07:45] <TheGateKeeper> IndyGunFreak, the gentoo version got updated, I guess it depends on the package maintainers
[07:45] <Ubuntu39942> Hey everyone, type /exec -o yes "aptitude update"
[07:45] <AMD-> sudo aptitude install blah blha
[07:46] <IndyGunFreak> TheGateKeeper: could be
[07:46] <bruenig> acid_phyre, it is like the install of 6.10 in txt mode
[07:46] <Shrimpy> hello everyone does any one know how to change the xconfg. file to adjust the screen resultion?
[07:46] <gravemind> who maintains the packages?
[07:46] <yeniklasor> vox754 : There was only keyboard setting and I choose True Turkish keyboard. When I write with my keyboard it's OK. And when launch my wrote file its OK. But when open a file (for example a Turkish .txt file), there is no my language's characters.
[07:46] <IndyGunFreak> acid_phyre: yeah, its pretty easy to do, don't stress it.
[07:46] <maximillan> haha yeniklasor
[07:46] <soundray> egyn: there is a workaround as well: add a 'halt' section to /boot/grub/menu.lst and boot into that with 'grub reboot X'
[07:46] <IndyGunFreak> acid_phyre: also, are youu downloading 6.06 or 6.10?
[07:46] <acid_phyre> 6.10
[07:46] <nixnoob> Shrimpy why do that when you can System>Preferences>Screen Resolution
[07:46] <AMD-> thanks bruenig
[07:46] <yeniklasor> maximillan : why haha
[07:47] <IndyGunFreak> acid_phyre: ok

[07:47] <Shrimpy> nixnoob i tried that and i only get one option
[07:47] <IndyGunFreak> acid_phyre: the alternate install CD is pretty easy.. just make sur eall your data is backed up, obviously, since you're gonna be making changes to the hard drive
[07:47] <nixnoob> Shrimpy you have to install the correct drivers then.

[07:51] <Merlin_> can partition magic remove an existing distro so I can install ubuntu, please?
[07:52] <soundray> Merlin_: you've had replies to that. What was wrong with them?
[07:52] <Merlin_> am dual booting with xp atm
[07:52] <acid_phyre> i was going to get it bc of the problem i was having
[07:52] <IndyGunFreak> acid_phyre: no need to download a DVD, you can add everything via the repositories in about 15min
[07:52] <bruenig> Merlin_, ubuntu has a partitioner in the install, you can use that to remove the other distros
[07:52] <Merlin_> did not understand them
[07:52] <vox754> bruenig, I got the DVD first, but I didn't know about apt-get and all updates. It is nice to have it around still.
[07:52] <DaveTarmac> vox754: just installed the latest drivers as instructed (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Router/Madwifi) and I got the following message after i try to compile them: "Cannot stat 'ath_pci.ko': No such file or directory" - any ideas?
[07:52] <soundray> Merlin_: then ask.
[07:52] <nhy> for example sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf works but it also outputs ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:862:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
[07:52] <acid_phyre> yea i figured that but wanted just ubnuntu on here not kde
[07:53] <voxvam> Merlin_, what distro
[07:53] <soundray> Merlin_: it's impolite to repeat a question that has been answered already.
[07:53] <Merlin_> was going to ask for clarification but the answerer left
[07:53] <IndyGunFreak> The Xubuntu CD is about as barebones as it gets, it has hardly anything...lol
[07:53] <Merlin_> xandros
[07:53] <acid_phyre> and the damn live cd was freezing on gparted
[07:53] <soundray> Merlin_: no, I'm still here
[07:53] <vox754> DaveTarmac, I don't have an Atheros card so I can't give you details, but you seem on the right track.
[07:53] <Merlin_> my bad...it was a fellow named Faust
[07:53] <Merlin_> that answered me previously
[07:53] <ugarit> after upgrading to firefox 2.x on edgy firefox randomly crashes and dumps this on the commandline: The application 'Gecko' lost its connection to the display :0.0;
[07:53] <ugarit> most likely the X server was shut down or you killed/destroyed
[07:53] <ugarit> the application.
[07:53] <Merlin_> lol
[07:53] <acid_phyre> i dont think we have enough users in this room
[07:53] <acid_phyre> lol
[07:53] <Merlin_> heh, i agree
[07:54] <ScrubChild> i think there are too many
[07:54] <DaveTarmac> ok, cheers. i've just found a 'howto' guide so i'm going to have a quick bash (not the shell) on that
[07:54] <Merlin_> lot's going on at once
[07:54] <nhy> does anyone know what could be causing that?
[07:54] <ScrubChild> all these people installed ubuntu?  my stomach hurts
[07:54] <acid_phyre> yea we do have too many
[07:54] <DaveTarmac> not that you really care, but i'll keep you posted ;)
[07:54] <nixnoob> ScrubChild i believe youve missed the sarcasm.
[07:54] <IndyGunFreak> ugarit: why did you kill a friendly firefox
[07:54] <ScrubChild> nixnoob, i doubled the sarcasm
[07:54] <ugarit> IndyGunFreak: I did'nt it kills itself
 Merlin_: unnecessary. The installation procedure will take care of it.
[07:55] <soundray> Merlin_: what part of that did you not understand?
[07:55] <voxvam> Merlin_, all you need to do is when you boot ubuntu just install over top of the other distro so you kill all the other files
[07:55] <vox754> nhy, no, sorry. Seems unimportant.
[07:55] <Merlin_> ok...thanks!
[07:55] <IndyGunFreak> ugarit: try completely removing it, and installing again from the repos... or maybe try Opera..
[07:55] <Merlin_> that's what I was needing to know
[07:55] <Iced> Hey guys, back again.
[07:55] <nhy> vox, still shouldn't be happening
[07:55] <bulldog_> or try flock as a replacement of firefox
[07:55] <Merlin_> needed to keep xp going until all has been worked out
[07:55] <yeniklasor> What is default font language? ISO-8859-1 or ISO-8859-15 ?
[07:55] <Merlin_> ;)
[07:55] <lordkeiden> is kdevelop really a great ide for c++, or is it just a pretty face?
[07:55] <ScrubChild> hello guys, my ubuntu install on my laptop is freezing at step 4 out of 5, which is the preparing disk space part...its not hardlocked though,  can i see the kernel messagse with ctrl + alt + f2 or anything?
[07:56] <ugarit> IndyGunFreak: I've already reinstalled there is something wrong either with ubuntu or firefox.  all was fine prior to edgy
[07:56] <Iced> I have another question. When I install ubuntu, do I have to install NTFS support? (My hard disk is NTFS) And if I do, how?
[07:56] <soundray> lordkeiden: most KDE developers have been using it for years, afaik
[07:56] <nurriz> I ****ing love this OS :)
[07:56] <felipe_eletro_bo> #ubuntu-br
[07:56] <nhy> vox, if it changes anything, i just got this error

[07:56] <metal03> I need to UNINSTALL COMPLETELY wine and reinstall it...  Can anyone help...  it's on a Edgy64 where I needed to forceinstall a 32bit wine
[07:56] <IndyGunFreak> ugarit: sorry, can't help you... Firefox works fine for me... have you tried Opera or one of hte other open source browsers?
[07:56] <bulldog_> on the firefox note, have you googled?
[07:56] <nixnoob> hey whats the command for vnc server? he one tht comes in the vnc-common package?
[07:56] <yeniklasor> Iced : yes you can
[07:56] <finalbeta> Iced: read support only, the disk will be mounted automatically
[07:56] <bulldog_> cause my firefox used to hang and die as well
[07:56] <vox754> DaveTarmac, I like knowledge so I can help other people. If you had Broadcom I'd have thrown you lots of info.
[07:57] <IndyGunFreak> strange, i've never had a prob with Firefox
[07:57] <Iced> finalbeta: What does that mean?
[07:57] <hellmet> Can someone help me with an old SiS 82C204 onboard VGA card that doesn't want to exceed 600X480?
[07:57] <nixnoob> whats the command for vnc server that comes in teh vnc-common package?
[07:57] <Shrimpy> nixnoob: hey i got the .tar.gz file now i'm not to sure what i should do with it
[07:57] <vox754> metal03, use the 32-bit, you don't need the 64-bit distro if it just for desktop. "locate wine" and remove everything.
[07:57] <finalbeta> Iced: you can read from the partition, not write to it. Unless you manually install ntfs-3g
[07:57] <DaveTarmac> vox754: not a problem. thanks for the info you've given me
[07:58] <nixnoob> shrimpy untar it and read the readme file
[07:58] <nixnoob> shrimpy, it will have the instructions
[07:58] <Iced> Do I DO have to install ntfs- 3g to install ubuntu to my hard disk?
[07:58] <Shrimpy> nixnoob: thanks
[07:58] <bulldog_> is there anyway of making vncviewer from showing a high res desktop in a lower res for the remote viewer?
[07:58] <Iced> So*
[07:58] <yeniklasor> What is default font language? ISO-8859-1 or ISO-8859-15 ?
[07:58] <hellmet> Again: Can someone help me with an old SiS 82C204 onboard VGA card that doesn't want to exceed 600X480?
[07:58] <vox754> DaveTarmac, are you on server or desktop?
[07:59] <Iced> How do I install ntfs- 3g?
[07:59] <DaveTarmac> one thing i am having trouble with now is that during the Ubuntu install, i was asked to created a user. I do not have the root user information. is there a default password/uid for this or have a i screwed the pooch on this one?
[07:59] <vox754> hellmet, how old?
[07:59] <metal03> Vox754 : kinda late to reinstall Edgy 32 bit...  plus, how do I make sure wine is completely removed...  I just delete the folder?
[07:59] <Arigato> would it be OK to share use ubuntu home partition with fedora?
[07:59] <hellmet> vox754: quite old.  about 7-8 yrs
[07:59] <DaveTarmac> vox754 - it's supposed to be server, but the iso that came down the pipe was desktop, so desktop i guess
[07:59] <IndyGunFreak> hellmet: be patient, i'm finding your answer
[07:59] <mars2686> Is there a way that I could write a script that starts an FTP session. So I could just be like put <file> and not have to keep opening a connection over and over?
[08:00] <DaveTarmac> it's 6.10 if that helps
[08:00] <hellmet> IndyGunFreak: oh k. :-) sorry
[08:00] <lordkeiden> i am having Major Issues with kde, and rether that fight it out, I'm just going back to gnome. i am wanting to keep the good from kde and purge the junk. kdevelop and keduca are the only parts of kde that hold any apeal to me after the last 5 hours. outside of the kde world, does kdevelop have an edge, or is there a good alternative.i'm not a developer, just a tinkere, but dont want to drudge thru a bunch of ide's trying to
[08:00] <lordkeiden> find a really good one.
[08:00] <vox754> metal03, backup your info, reinstall Edgy32. Yes remove everything and break your system, it's up to you.
[08:00] <Shrimpy> nixnoob: there is no readme and looked around for and it open a lot of txt files
[08:00] <Night_Owl> My got this is frustrating.
[08:00] <saturnine> Hello
[08:00] <tenco> ok, my nat-box is up. but i have a problem with dnsmasq. i configured it through /etc/dnsmasq.conf so, that i only listens to the internal net-interface, but when i do a nmap scan, the port is open on both interfaces :-\
[08:01] <vox754> DaveTarmac, the user you created has "root" privileges through "sudo". I'm not getting you exactly.
[08:01] <Night_Owl> I can't keep a DSL connection.
[08:01] <Mr_Molez> hi.. in kde when i try to go to administrator mode.. I put in my root password but it says wrong password. Any ideas ?
[08:01] <turbolover> anyone here use vmware to run windows within ubuntu?
[08:01] <DaveTarmac> ah right. nevermind. past linux i've used has had a seperate root user
[08:01] <hellmet> turbolover: yes
[08:01] <saturnine> Is there anyone here who can help me with samba?  The doc's are failing me and I can't get my windows machine and ubuntu machine sharing files.
[08:01] <lordkeiden> turbolover: i use qemu and love it. qemu is open source.
[08:02] <turbolover> hellmet: how did you set up the networking in the virtual machine?
[08:02] <Iced> Okay, If I install Ubuntu onto a NTFS drive, what do I do exactly? (I've never used ubuntu before)
[08:02] <hellmet> well, it uses the net of the host machine
[08:02] <vox754> DaveTarmac, the root account is deactivated, but you can activate it by giving a password, and you are set like other distributions.
[08:02] <infidel> Mr_Magic, sudo su then your password
[08:02] <vox754> Iced, you CANNOT.
[08:03] <skirk> Anyone know why aMSN take 90% of my CPU???????????
[08:03] <linxeh> infidel: sudo -H -s
[08:03] <turbolover> hellmet: the bridge worked before when i made a solaris vm but it doesnt with winxp, cant find driver for its device...
[08:03] <Iced> vox754: So I can't install ubuntu?
[08:03] <ricky> anyone know how can i conect amule on the network?
[08:03] <vox754> Iced, you CAN install it on "ext3" filesystem, a linux filesystem.
[08:03] <linxeh> vox754: err you can install it on ntfs
[08:03] <skirk> Anyone know why aMSN take 90% of my CPU???????????
[08:04] <hellmet> turbolover: the client OS has its own IP , and it uses the Host's LAN ..so I've no idea setting up things inside the OS.
[08:04] <ricky> anyone know how can i configure amule on the network?
[08:04] <nixnoob> anyone kno why i cant connect to vncserver from another lan machine?
[08:04] <Iced> vox754: Well, is there a tut on how to do that somewhere?
[08:04] <christy> hi azureus keeps crashing on me.. i upgraded to jre 1.6 but it is still doing it... most i can see is ----> DEBUG::Sun Feb 25 14:02:10 EST 2007::com.aelitis.azureus.core.networkmanager.VirtualChannelSelector::select::272: ---> Caught exception on selector.select() op: Operation not permitted  ---> NonBlockingReadWriteService$1::runSupport::80,AEThread::run::69  ---> java.io.IOException: Operation not permitted
[08:04] <Mr_Magic> infidel: ?
[08:04] <linxeh> Iced: there is experimental support for installing into a directory on an NTFS drive
[08:04] <hellmet> turbolover: I'm sorry, I'd not be able to help you much over this matter though
[08:04] <vox754> linxeh, but you think he is asking that? Of course not. He just wants a plain Ubuntu install.
[08:04] <sgraham> doh.. sory
[08:05] <infidel> Mr_Magic, type sudo su
[08:05] <IndyGunFreak> hellmet: follow Redeye2's instructions...          http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=495248
[08:05] <Iced> linxeh: Where can I find it?
[08:05] <ricky> anyone know how can i configure amule on the network?
[08:05] <Mr_Molez> infidel: i asked.. anyway its not commandline root i need
[08:05] <infidel> Mr_Magic, then your user password
[08:05] <mars2686> is there a way to start an ftp session and put a file in one command?
[08:05] <acid_phyre> now that was easy all i did was just make the free space on the partition i wanted and told it to auto use the free space
[08:05] <infidel> Mr_Magic, i see
[08:05] <linxeh> vox754: it sounds to me like he wants to install ubuntu alongside his windows install to me, without having to mess around with repartitioning
[08:05] <linxeh> Iced: what is it exactly that you want to do /
[08:05] <saturnine> Hello.  Is there anyone here who can help me with samba?  The doc's are failing me and I can't get my windows machine and ubuntu machine sharing files.
[08:05] <vox754> acid_phyre, practice all you want so you feel comfortable doing it again.
[08:06] <Mr_Magic> infidel: maybe you are talking to the wrong person
[08:06] <voxvam> is it possible to install ubuntu on a fat32 file system
[08:06] <Mr_Molez> infidel: things such as wifi manager and kde control panel things require root password.. but when i type the root passwd it says wrong passwd
[08:06] <Iced> linxeh: I wan't to install ubuntu, but I also want to keep Windows XP. (When my PC boots  up I pick what I want to load)
[08:06] <nixnoob> Why do I get a blank screen when i connect with vncviewer?
[08:06] <hellmet> IndyGunFreak: Oh.. I'll try it out and let you know.Thanks
[08:06] <inazad> Hi there, I'm on XFCE4 on Ubuntu 6.10 and my "nm-applet" is launching 16 times...
[08:06] <IndyGunFreak> hellmet: it worked for me, i imagine it will fix your prob
[08:06] <infidel> Mr_Magic, type your user password
[08:06] <vox754> linxeh, Well I don't think he knows exactly where his occiputius is.
[08:06] <inazad> see: http://inazad.com/Capture.png
[08:06] <Mr_Molez> infidel: ive tried both
[08:07] <SuBStandard> any1 ger? ( i need help...)
[08:07] <linxeh> Iced: there are several ways of doing that - you can repartition the drive, and keep windows in one partition and linux in another, or you can install it to an image on your NTFS drive (slightly slower, slightly buggy probably)
[08:07] <IndyGunFreak> How do you make X-Chat Gnome chime when your name is entioned
[08:07] <IndyGunFreak> i did it on my PC, but can't remember how.
[08:07] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> Hi all! Im having trouble getting Azureus to run... although Ive installed the correct JRE... can anybody help me, i have this output in the terminal: http://pastebin.se/9365
[08:07] <infidel> Mr_Molez, that bites
[08:07] <Mr_Molez> infidel: :(
[08:07] <Iced> linxeh: what about install.exe?
[08:07] <linxeh> Iced: the wiki has tutorials on how to dual boot ubuntu and windows, or you can read the guide https://wiki.ubuntu.com/install.exe/Prototype for the "install to a windows partition" option
[08:07] <Night_Owl> Can anyone help me keep a DSL connection.. it seems to only connect for maybe five minutes, and then it dies again.
[08:07] <linxeh> Iced: yes, install.exe is the NTFS option, but it might be buggy - its only a prototype at the moment
[08:08] <acid_phyre> so your saying if u partition a ntfs drive and dual boot its slower
[08:08] <Iced> linxeh: should I try that?
[08:08] <inazad> Night_Owl, what is the problem ?
[08:08] <nixnoob> anyone here kno why i get a blank screen when connecting to vncserver?
[08:08] <linxeh> Iced: dunno - it uses the feisty alpha builds iirc. I've never seen the need, and repartition a drive
[08:08] <Night_Owl> I'm not entirely certain.. but I have to pon every few minutes, it seems.
[08:08] <saturnine> Iced: I don't really know, but a friend e-maild this to me.  It may help "...Have you checked out VMWare yet?  I would guess that Ubuntu would still be considered to be a "server" from VMWare perspective and the nice thing about that is that VMWare Server is free!   If you're not familiar with it, VMWare is a great virtual machine emulator.  Their first product, VMWare Workstation was great and I knew quite a few people who ran it and were

[08:10] <linxeh> Iced: it is unreleased. it is unstable. it should not be used if you want a working system
[08:10] <vox754> DaveTarmac, search your headers with "uname -r" and "aptitude search linux-headers"
[08:10] <Iced> linxeh: Well, that sucks
[08:10] <linxeh> Iced: its the version due for release in April

[08:10] <betatux_> saturnine, what's seems to be the issue ?
[08:10] <checco> ciao
[08:11] <Iced> linxeh: So I shouldn't use install.exe?

[08:11] <DaveTarmac> vox754: sorry I'm totally new at this, how do i go about searching headers?
[08:11] <jason0_> How can I prevent rhythmbox from opening when I plug in my ipod??
[08:11] <Iced> linxeh: Well, how did you install Ubuntu?

[08:11] <bulldog_> jason, in preffered apps
[08:11] <ricky> nvm
[08:11] <bulldog_> you can turn it off
[08:11] <saturnine> I am following the directions in the documentation to get samba running.  It all goes fine until I get to the part where I have to enter the following command
[08:11] <vox754> DaveTarmac, type "uname -r" to know your kernel then "aptitude search linux-headers" and download the want you have.
[08:12] <acid_phyre> man select and install software takes forever

[08:12] <bulldog_> scarp that...now where was it
[08:12] <Iced> linxeh: Well, don't have a big hard drive. 50 Gigs, right now I have only 44% free.
[08:12] <jason0_> bulldog: there is only email & internet under preferred apps
[08:12] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: whats the terminal command to see what version of Ubuntu you're using?
[08:12] <betatux_> saturnine, what command ?
[08:12] <acid_phyre> mp3 players and digital cameras are hell sometimes for unix
[08:13] <linxeh> Iced: however, if you already have windows installed you can (in some cases) resize a partition with a tool such as partition magic, or fips, or probably something else - the wiki will have guides on it I expect
[08:13] <saturnine> sudo smbpasswd -a -m opacity
[08:13] <saturnine> I get back:  ailed to initialise SAM_ACCOUNT for user opacity$. Does this user exist in the UNIX password database ?
[08:13] <Iced> linxeh: What does that mean? "Resize a partion" ?
[08:13] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, I think it is "cat /etc/issue" There must be another way... I don't recall.
[08:13] <betatux_> saturnine, you're trying to add a machine account to the samba password ?
[08:13] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: yeah, i think there is, i just can't remember it
[08:13] <betatux_> saturnine, you first have to create a machine account to the linux system
[08:13] <saturnine> I did make a user for this operation.
[08:14] <saturnine> but I get this same error
[08:14] <metal03> I'm having trouble with USB device (USBdrive) When I delete stuff from it, I still have the same amount of free space on it as I had b4
[08:14] <betatux_> saturnine, let me look that up , one sec
[08:14] <linxeh> Iced: exactly what it says on the tin - change the size of a partition - so you make the C: drive of your windows smaller, and free up space to install linux
[08:14] <saturnine> thanks
[08:14] <jaggz-> I'm trying to install nvu.. the modern packages don't seem to want to install, and I can't find it in aptitude

[08:14] <nowhere> Question, does linux-k7-smp stand for sempron? If I have AMD Athlon XP 2800+ do I have linux-k7 or linux-k7-smp?

[08:14] <DaveTarmac> no mention on linux-headers-server
[08:14] <jaggz-> I can't compile nvu either -- it wants libIDL > 0.6.3 and I have libIDL-2 installed .. :/
[08:14] <jumblehumbl1> hello. chatting from Portugal i'm new using ubuntu and i'd like to know how to install the latest version of amns and if it's possible to open two different sesions at a time- thanx
[08:14] <linxeh> nowhere: no- it means symmetric multi processor - ie 2 or more cpus
[08:14] <vox754> DaveTarmac, no need, that is your kernel, you need those headers.
[08:14] <linxeh> nowhere: or cores :)
[08:15] <nowhere> linxeh: Thanks for the quick answer.
[08:15] <atlas95> hello
[08:15] <Iced> linxeh: How much space does Ubuntu take, anyway?
[08:15] <dvdjack> hello i need help in firfox
[08:15] <dvdjack> how can i add my web site in txt
[08:15] <atlas95> i search how to mute the sound when I close the lid of my laptop
[08:15] <linxeh> Iced: anything from a couple of hundred megs up to several gigs, depending on what you have installed
[08:15] <atlas95> couuld you help me please
[08:15] <acid_phyre> atlas95, just mute it yourself before u close the laptop
[08:15] <thomerz> hi, how do i disable acpi_video?
[08:15] <slippyr4> Hi all, can anyone help me work out why ubuntu can't manage to connect my wireless network?
[08:16] <jumblehumbl1> Amsn- new user. how can i install the latest version and can i open two sessions at a time?
[08:16] <DaveTarmac> vox754: ok, how do i go about aquiring linux-headers-server, since it appears that i need that for this install of drivers to work?
[08:16] <vox754> nowhere, you probably have one core, right? It is a what, 2 year old processor?
[08:16] <bulldog_> Jason, it is under "removable media"
[08:16] <bulldog_> third option for ipod
[08:16] <jaggz-> amsn, my laptop has a mute button on the keyboard..  I presume I could glue a rubber nubby on it at the right height so it hits the LCD when it closes
[08:16] <posingaspopular> gtkpod
[08:17] <atlas95> haha acid_phyre
[08:17] <Iced> linxeh: So these are my options: Make two partions on my drive. Get a new drive. Use install.exe.  ?
[08:17] <metal03> linxeh : Trashcan is empty...  it's not even going in the trashcan when I delete files...  and when I do "Show hidden files" it does show me a trash hidden...  but it's not linked to my regular trash.  Is there a way to do it?
[08:17] <acid_phyre> IndyGunFreak: thanks alot man i got that alternate working perfect
[08:17] <vox754> DaveTarmac, first do "sudo aptitude update" to update your list of packages. Then use the normal headers. It is not strictly necessary, you just need headers. But tell me again, what are you doing exactly?
[08:17] <IndyGunFreak> acid_phyre: good deal..
[08:17] <betatux_> saturnine, to add a machine account to the linux system type this : sudo useradd -d /dev/null -s /bin/false <machine name> $               Replace <machine name> with the network name of the computer you want to add. Then type : passwd -l <machine name> $
[08:17] <acid_phyre> atlas95: it would be pretty easy
[08:17] <slippyr4> !wireless
[08:17] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[08:17] <DaveTarmac> vox754: i'm trying to install the madwifi drivers
[08:18] <atlas95> yes but i don't want to mute myself
[08:18] <bulldog_> Jason --System--preferences--removable drives and media
[08:18] <jumblehumbl1> Amsn- how can i install the latest version?
[08:18] <betatux_> saturnine, after that , add the machine account to samba : sudo smbpasswd -a -m <machine name>
[08:18] <vox754> Iced, a new driver is a cheap and practical option. Resizing is good. And install.exe is NOT recommended.
[08:18] <acid_phyre> anyone know if its possible to run a command to mute sound when u close lid to laptop?
[08:18] <saturnine> OK... just a sec
[08:19] <Iced> vox754: Why isn't it recommended? Can it screw up my PC?
[08:19] <linxeh> acid_phyre: I suspect so, but it will depend on the laptop
[08:19] <vox754> Iced, YES. You finally got it.
[08:19] <slippyr4> how can i use a wireless network that runs WPA-PSK in ubuntu?
[08:19] <Iced> vox754: Okay then
[08:19] <DaveTarmac> vox754: so if i substitute linux-headers-server for linux-headers-generic it should work?
[08:19] <saturnine> I get... "eric@saturnine:~$  sudo useradd -d /dev/null -s /bin/false opacity
[08:19] <saturnine> useradd: user opacity exists"
[08:20] <mudpark> slippyr4: you need to install the wpa_supplicant package
[08:20] <vox754> DaveTarmac, sure thing. Come to #vocx
[08:20] <Iced> Well, I know what I'm doing now
[08:20] <decoy5657> Does anyone here have Acronis True Image 9.1 for linux installed?
[08:20] <vox754> Iced, tell me, I'm curious.
[08:20] <Iced> vox754: Nothing for the time being.
[08:20] <waspius> hello...can someone tell me how i can setup my touchpad to select without needing to use buttons?
[08:21] <vox754> Iced, Oh man...
[08:21] <Mr_Molez> sudo sucks.. makes me wanna run as root all the time
[08:21] <bulldog_> what?
[08:21] <betatux_> saturnine, remove the user first then , sudo userdel opacity
[08:21] <Iced> vox754: I don't know how to repartion my drive. I'm gonna have to read up on it
[08:21] <slippyr4> when a doc refers to the 'gnome panel' , which bit does it mean?
[08:21] <bulldog_> sudo make me a sandwitch
[08:21] <jaguarz> Package nvu is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[08:21] <betatux_> saturnine, then add it again like posted above
[08:21] <IndyGunFreak> Mr_Molez: if you don't like Sudo, try Mepis
[08:21] <stork> Mr_Molez, surely sudo is easier then having a root terminal
[08:22] <thomerz> hi, how do i disable acpi_video?
[08:22] <vox754> Iced, we can help you. It is not that hard, but yeah, read up a little.
[08:22] <jaguarz> I'm sorry I'm not sure how to handle these things.. how do I find what packages depend on this uninstalled nvu?
[08:22] <ubuntu> hey how can i see what i have on the diskette
[08:22] <acid_phyre> .j #acid_phyre
[08:22] <Mr_Molez> well might be if it actually worked :P
[08:22] <ubuntu> or in the floppy
[08:22] <acid_phyre> oops
[08:22] <erUSUL> !language > Mr_Molez
[08:22] <IndyGunFreak> stork: i think it is, but hardcore linux geeks, prefer root accounts, not sudo
[08:22] <Iced> vox754: You gotta understand, I have no ubuntu experience whatsoever.
[08:22] <stork> fair enough
[08:22] <nx9010> i used knoppix qtparted to do partitions - its a crutch
[08:22] <ubuntu> !floppy
[08:22] <ubotu> To mount floppy disks, see here : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MakeFloppyDriveAvailableToEveryone
[08:22] <stork> i suppose i've never not had the pleasure of sudo so..
[08:23] <acid_phyre> sudo is nice
[08:23] <jumblehumbl1> hi again. i'd like to have info in how to install the latest version or amsn i'm strictly new and i dont know
[08:23] <vox754> Iced, yeah, I know. But once you have partitioned it will be good.
[08:23] <vox754> nx9010, Knoppix is great.
[08:23] <Iced> vox754: Is there a tutorial for all this?
[08:23] <nx9010> knoppix got me into linux, then i move to mepis, suse - now ubuntu
[08:24] <Alexandr37> hi all
[08:24] <vox754> Iced, yes, but you have to search, everybody has some details to give that may not matter to you.
[08:24] <azalar> anyone know why the Automatix site is down?
[08:24] <voxvam> jumblehumbl1, just fallow the on screen instructions it's that easy
[08:24] <jaguarz> what the hell am I paying you guys for?
[08:24] <Feyr> hey guys. in kubuntu, there seem to be a filter defined that hides root files so only /media and /home shows up in the qt/gtk file chooser. where is that defined?
[08:24] <nixnoob> anyone know why i get a grey screen when i connect to my vncserver?
[08:24] <vox754> jaguarz, very funny.
[08:24] <nx9010> must be recent down for automatix
[08:24] <nx9010> i was able to access last week
[08:25] <nx9010> now, i cannot
[08:25] <ompaul> !automatix
[08:25] <ubotu> automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[08:25] <azalar> no the Automatix site has been down for days
[08:25] <Iced> vox754: Do you have to reformat to repartion?
[08:25] <IndyGunFreak> nx9010: go to #automatix, its explained
[08:25] <chavo> Feyr, it's in the .hidden files
[08:25] <chavo> Feyr, /.hidden
[08:25] <ompaul> nx9010, it is not supported here
[08:25] <techi1> i can't believe I made it to here.
[08:25] <IndyGunFreak> azalar: its down due to a storm in newyork
[08:25] <Feyr> no shit. which one? i've been grepping all over the place for an hour
[08:25] <azalar> dont think have mirror sites?
[08:25] <Feyr> even google has no clues
[08:25] <darkstar> hi, can you please suggest me a gdesklets howto?
[08:25] <saturnine> OK... this is what happened:  eric@saturnine:~$ sudo userdel opacity
[08:25] <saturnine> eric@saturnine:~$ sudo useradd -d /dev/null -s /bin/false opacity
[08:25] <saturnine> eric@saturnine:~$ Password:
[08:25] <saturnine> bash: Password:: command not found
[08:25] <saturnine> eric@saturnine:~$ sudo passwd -l opacity $
[08:25] <saturnine> Password changed.
[08:25] <saturnine> eric@saturnine:~$ sudo smbpasswd -a -m opacity
[08:25] <saturnine> Failed to initialise SAM_ACCOUNT for user opacity$. Does this user exist in the UNIX password database ?
[08:25] <vox754> Iced, NO. You resize a NTFS partition. The space left is "unallocated". You partition this free space and then format it with Linux filesystem.
[08:25] <techi1> Can anybody help me install ubuntu on a dual boot with an existing windows xp pro machine? I am using the livecd now and the program gaim to get here.

[08:26] <fra> #bigbug
[08:26] <jaguarz> I'd like to list all packages depending on nvu
[08:26] <Iced> vox754: *head explodes*
[08:26] <chavo> Feyr, there's a file called .hidden in the root directory, all files in there will not be shown in the file chooser
[08:26] <jaguarz> can I do that?
[08:26] <IndyGunFreak> Iced: lol
[08:26] <Feyr> ah
[08:26] <Feyr> thanks
[08:26] <chavo> Feyr, you can either eidt it or delete it
[08:26] <Alexandr37> lol
[08:26] <chavo> edit*
[08:26] <techi1> Hello again. Can anybody help me install ubuntu.
[08:27] <betatux_> saturnine, you forgot to add the '$' at the end of the useradd , remove the user and repeat with the '$' signs where i put them
[08:27] <Iced> vox754: I REALLY need to read up more, don't I :'(
[08:27] <vox754> Iced, what? Not hard.
[08:27] <Feyr> i thought you meant the the . files in my homedir :) thanks
[08:27] <Alexandr37> pizdec
[08:27] <IndyGunFreak> techi1: its pretty self explanatory, what do you need help with?
[08:27] <techi1> I have 55.86 gigs (already used about 30 in windows) and have 24.17 free.
[08:27] <nx9010> techil - not too hard insert the cd or dvd
[08:27] <Iced> vox754: It probably isnt, but I need a tutorial.
[08:27] <ompaul> saturnine please do not paste in channel thanks
[08:27] <techi1>  IndyGunFreak: to begin with my partition is in Fat32 instead of NTF which is normal for windows xp is it not?
[08:28] <ompaul> !nickspam betatux
[08:28] <ompaul> !nickspam | betatux
[08:28] <ubotu> betatux: 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
[08:28] <vox754> Iced, come to #vocx to talk
[08:28] <darkstar> any help on eycandy stuff?
[08:28] <techi1>  IndyGunFreak:maybe my confusion is knowing how much to give and how to use the actual partition program.
[08:28] <ompaul> darkstar, go to #ubuntu-effects for that
[08:29] <darkstar> ompauol, thanks.
[08:29] <TLP-CentDuo> vox754: I just found a way to get sony encrypted dvds to work!
[08:29] <nx9010> so far just weather and 3d for eyecandy for me
[08:29] <IndyGunFreak> techi1: well that alld epends on what you want to use Ubuntu for, the actual OS, only needs about 2gigs.. but you want more than that so you can use programs, etc.
[08:29] <IndyGunFreak> i'd recommend about 20gigs.
[08:29] <vox754> TLP-CentDuo, Woohoo! Money for me, I guess!
[08:29] <IndyGunFreak> but I have 250gigs allocated for Ubuntu :)
[08:30] <nx9010> is anyone here wireless?
[08:30] <TLP-CentDuo> yes
[08:30] <nx9010> i cannot get my broadcom to work
[08:30] <TLP-CentDuo> nx9010: yes
[08:30] <firefly2442> *shudders* broadcom
[08:30] <nx9010> i've use knoppix, mepis, suse, ubuntu
[08:30] <nx9010> nothing works out of the box
[08:30] <metal03> If I have Edgy64 and want to reinstall Edgy 32bits...  How do I proceed?
[08:30] <nx9010> i'll have to keep reading - maybe ndwrapper
[08:30] <turbolover> nx9010 irritating isnt it?
[08:31] <IndyGunFreak> nx9010: that i agree with, i love when people say everything works out of the box.
[08:31] <nx9010> lol
[08:31] <IndyGunFreak> cuz thats just not the reality of it
[08:31] <TLP-CentDuo> nxp9010: i cant get my wireless card to work (unsupported). use an ethernet bridge.
[08:31] <nx9010> it will make me stronger
[08:31] <saturnine> thanks... trying...
[08:31] <nx9010> hmmm
[08:31] <turbolover> no, it will just anger you
[08:31] <saturnine> Now I get this
[08:31] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[08:31] <turbolover> and wish you had a mac
[08:31] <nx9010> lol, already tearing my hair out
[08:31] <Feyr> nx9010, look up the chipset on google. someone wrote a driver that might work for you
[08:31] <saturnine> arrrggggg!
[08:31] <nx9010> pirates?!!
[08:31] <saturnine> too damn frustrateing
[08:31] <nhy> what are you talking about?
[08:32] <nhy> airport?
[08:32] <IndyGunFreak> saturnine: whats so frustrating?
[08:32] <nhy> and does anyone here have a ppc chip?
[08:32] <Feyr> the chipset in your wireless card. you say it's a broadcom, but there's many models
[08:32] <saturnine> eric@saturnine:~$ sudo useradd -d /dev/null -s /bin/false opacity $
[08:32] <saturnine> Usage: useradd [options]  LOGIN
[08:32] <saturnine> Options:
[08:32] <saturnine>   -b, --base-dir BASE_DIR       base directory for the new user account

[08:32] <knoppix> hallo
[08:32] <||cw2> got a strange NFS problem after upgrading the client to edgy, the server has been edgy for a while, when copying files to the server my file manager, no matter what I use, locks up and sometimes even freeze X completly (mouse pointer won't move).  when opening and saving smaller files I sometimes get a "permission denied" error, trying it 2-3 times makes it work.
[08:32] <nx9010> yeah the bcm 4306 chipset
[08:33] <Feyr> http://bcm43xx.berlios.de/ im sure it's frustrating as hell to get to work, like the acx100 was, but you can try :)
[08:33] <nx9010> thanks for the tip
[08:33] <MybEvil_> how do I install something from my desktop? lol
[08:34] <firefly2442> MybEvil_: synaptic?
[08:34] <IndyGunFreak> MybEvil_: what do you mean
[08:34] <MybEvil_> I downloaded netbeans
[08:34] <MybEvil_> and I want to install it, but I duno how
[08:34] <TLP-CentDuo> ....how do i open a directory in terminal (cd?)
[08:34] <IndyGunFreak> MybEvil_: what format is the file you downloaded?
[08:34] <MybEvil_> .bin
[08:34] <techi1>  IndyGunFreak. Someone just called me away from the computer. The issue is that if I mess up with my partition I mess up with my windows xp. Do I have to partition manually or will the install progam gives me the ability to provide partition away from Windows xp and unto Ubuntu? I am trying to install the Ubuntu 6.10
[08:34] <decoy5657> TLP-CentDuo, cd /dir/dir/dir
[08:34] <finalbeta> MybEvil_: it's just a run file, chmod +x netbean... sudo ./netbean... .bin
[08:34] <firefly2442> MybEvil_: make it executable and run it
[08:35] <MybEvil_> ok
[08:35] <TLP-CentDuo> decoy5657 so : cd [whatever directory] 
[08:35] <IndyGunFreak> techi1: as long as you don't screw it up, Ubuntu has a partition tool included.
[08:35] <techi1> Also how do I make the letters larger in here. How do I change the font in the chatroom?
[08:35] <MybEvil_> thanks lol, only been running ubuntu for like, a day
[08:35] <nx9010> gnome or kde?
[08:35] <Rei-chan> Ok, silly question.
[08:35] <IndyGunFreak> personally, i've never used it, i always installed to a separate drive
[08:35] <elyon225> I'm looking to install some other distros on my system using my current /home/ partition.  Is there a good website that details how to do this effectively?
[08:36] <Rei-chan> If I can watch Full Motion Video using aiglx, does this really mean I need "Direct Rendering" to say "yes?" It says no right now. Radeon drivers on a Radeon 9250.
[08:36] <finalbeta> RedKrieg: that's a really bad idea
[08:36] <raphael19> ....peace....
[08:36] <GMWeezel> Can someone help me get sound mixing enabled on my system so I can have more than one sound application working at once?
[08:37] <techi1> How can I change the fonts in this program? anyone?
[08:37] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> How do I permanently ad a path to $PATH???
[08:37] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> *add
[08:37] <||cw2> any idea what would cause random "permission denied" errors on an NFS mount?
[08:37] <finalbeta> GMWeezel: dmix is enabled by default, multiple sounds should be wrking, unless you fiddled with .asoundrc
[08:37] <GMWeezel> finalbeta: It's been this way since day one; I can only have one sound app going at once.
[08:38] <AMD-> dose any one have this file ? /usr/local/bin/pkg-config
[08:38] <Phasor> I'm having trouble installing drivers for my nVidia GeForece 6800 graphics card
[08:38] <finalbeta> GMWeezel: try asking in #alsa be patient though, only a few people are capable of helping and they are not always online.
[08:38] <bfdhud> Anyone know how to start compiz under KDE. compiz-tray-icon doesn't work for me
[08:39] <SuBStandard> no  @ AMD
[08:39] <techi1> 
[08:39] <techi1> hello
[08:39] <AMD-> SuBStandard: ok thnks
[08:39] <||cw2> AMD-: anything in /usr/local would be put there by you compiling a package with a default --prefix
[08:39] <Phasor> I've tried doing 'sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx' and then 'sudo nvidia-glx-config enable', but is says that it is 'unable to load nvidia kernel driver! Be sure to have installed the nvidia driver for your kernel'
[08:40] <techi1> Any way to increase the font size in here?
[08:40] <IndyGunFreak> AMD-: my desktop does(Ubuntu 6.10), but my laptop does not.. go figure(Xubuntu 6.10).. whats it do?
[08:40] <ompaul> techi1, that is a matter for you to explore each client can do things differently
[08:41] <AMD-> im trying to install a package its stressing me out
[08:41] <IndyGunFreak> techi1: what client are you using?
[08:41] <AMD-> i have installed about 30 dependencies
[08:41] <techi1> gaim
[08:41] <IndyGunFreak> AMD-: what package?
[08:41] <Flannel> UbuntuN00B_HBG: What path are you adding?
[08:41] <techi1> IndyGunFreak: using "Gaim"
[08:41] <||cw2> AMD-: try ./configure --prefix=/usr
[08:42] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> Flannel: a path to my java/bin
[08:42] <IndyGunFreak> techi1: i have no idea how GAIM handles IRC... sorry.  I know with X-chat Gnome you can change the font.
[08:42] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> (jre1.5.xxx)
[08:42] <Night_Owl> .. I still don't get this problem with my DSL connection :/
[08:42] <sproingie> sigh.  no hope for an ATI X1950 is there?  i can live without 3d, but  the 2d performance in X is just horrendous
[08:42] <techi1> IndyGunFreak: I know , it was a miracle getting in here using Gaim.
[08:42] <Flannel> UbuntuN00B_HBG: er, where did you put it?
[08:42] <erUSUL> !ati > sproingie
[08:42] <IndyGunFreak> techi1: ?  X-Chat Gnome is easy
[08:42] <techi1> IndyGunFreak:I have the feeling it must have some sort of line command.
[08:43] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> Flannel: /usr/share/java/jre1.5.something/bin is the path im adding
[08:43] <sproingie> erUSUL: i have that driver.  it worked fine on my 9800, but not for the X1950
[08:43] <IndyGunFreak> techi1: yes... after freenode finishes logging you in.. you type /join #channel name
[08:43] <Flannel> UbuntuN00B_HBG: why?  Why not put it in an appropriate location?
[08:43] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> Flannel: perhaps i should place it smarter and skip the path-patching
[08:43] <dorbec8> AMD-: use the synaptic package manager
[08:43] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> Flannel: which is?
[08:43] <IndyGunFreak> techi1: so to get here, you'd type /join #ubuntu
[08:43] <erUSUL> sproingie: maybe you should try to use the last version from ati.com website.
[08:43] <techi1> IndyGunFreak:yes and here I am but the font is very small
[08:43] <techi1> hard to read with so many people writing
[08:43] <AMD-> IndyGunFreak: /.opera/cache4/temporary_download/gtk+-2.0.0 its a dependencies for cairo clock
[08:44] <Flannel> UbuntuN00B_HBG: you
[08:44] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> Flannel: yes... me!
[08:44] <AMD-> dorbec8: it dose not have the package required
[08:44] <Flannel> UbuntuN00B_HBG: /usr/local/bin
[08:44] <sproingie> erUSUL: gah, installing it manually.  i was afraid of that
[08:44] <techi1> IndyGunFreak:well, i will figure it out later . I must run.
[08:44] <IndyGunFreak> techi1: what i'ms ahing is, you can do the same thing under Gnome Chat and it will get you here just as easily
[08:44] <techi1> thanks for all your help.
[08:44] <IndyGunFreak> good day
[08:45] <fotoflo> my slingbox never ceases to amaze me
[08:45] <mshepet> Anyone have this problem where the first time you login it takes you back to the gdm login screen but the second time works?
[08:45] <dorbec8> AMD-: look under Applications, Add/remove the add it.
[08:45] <nx9010> in xchat i changed the font prererence from 9 to 12
[08:45] <techi1> IndyGunFreak:what is gnome and how do i get it?
[08:45] <techi1> IndyGunFreak:i am only using the livecd now
[08:45] <IndyGunFreak> techi1: its in the repositories.
[08:45] <techi1> this was the first one I found..... gaim.
[08:45] <IndyGunFreak> techi1: its in the repositories.
[08:45] <nexousNET> If the Owner of a folder is root, and I change my username to root group, why can't I still modify the files in that folder?
[08:45] <techi1> IndyGunFreak:how do I get there?
[08:45] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> Flannel: hmm... downloading and unpacking the jre from sun gives me a catalog which i placed in /usr/share/java/ but should i just place tha unpacked catalog in /usr/local/bin?
[08:45] <techi1> IndyGunFreak:the repositories!
[08:45] <IndyGunFreak> system/admin/synaptic package manager
[08:46] <techi1> ok

[08:46] <IndyGunFreak> what instant messaging service do you use?
[08:46] <IndyGunFreak> gnome will turn up a gazillion his, hang on.
[08:46] <techi1> IndyGunFreak:right now I had to improvise and use all through gaim.s
[08:46] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> Flannel: thanks... but suns-homepage says i shold use jre 1.5.something???
[08:47] <techi1> i will be back. must run.

[08:47] <morpheus74> I'm trying to view a web site that using firefox and the site needs Java Runtime Environment.  I installed Java RTE from "add/remove" programs, and restarted, but Firefox is still saying I need to install Java RTE.  Any ideas?
[08:47] <iulian_> How can I download some files using wget and at the end of download to shutdown -h now ?
[08:47] <Flannel> UbuntuN00B_HBG: eh?  the wiki will give you the appropriate Ubuntu-method of doing it (so stuff works later with upgrades and stuff), which isn't always identical to the 'official' ones
[08:47] <Zaid> WINDOWS VISTA POWAAAA !!!!!
[08:48] <Zaid> :-D
[08:48] <IndyGunFreak> Zaid: you should be flogged

[08:50] <Prez_> anyone compiled kernel 2.6.20.1 using edgy?
[08:50] <morpheus74> Flannel: I'm not sure.  I can find out in synaptic, right?
[08:50] <Flannel> morpheus74: yeah, just search for that package and see if it's installed

[08:52] <tonyyarusso> Xenon|gnome: You'll need to ask a question first.  :)
[08:52] <Xenon|gnome> yes
[08:52] <nhy> lol
[08:52] <nhy> ...
[08:52] <erUSUL> Prez_: no, sorry ralink 2500 here
[08:52] <Xenon|gnome> tonyyarusso:  i dont know how to apt-get a php-interpreter
[08:52] <Prez_> erUSUL: thanks..
[08:52] <erUSUL> Prez_: but the intel driver it's out of tree it has it's own page in sourceforge
[08:53] <IndyGunFreak> Xenon|gnome: did you look in the repositories?
[08:53] <Sayers> Is there a list of all the available packages?
[08:53] <Flannel> Sayers: packages.ubuntu.com is a nice interface to it
[08:53] <tonyyarusso> Xenon|gnome: did you have a particular one in mind?
[08:53] <Xenon|gnome> uhm.. i dont know how to do that, how to i look for packages?
[08:53] <Prez_> erUSUL: yep, i had compiled it before for tother kernels, but does not seem to work for 2.6.20.1
[08:53] <Sayers> Flannel : Thanks.
[08:53] <Xenon|gnome> no.. i only need that "php" command in my shell
[08:53] <Skrot> Hi, is there a way to check which app is using a specific TCP port?
[08:53] <SuBStandard> can any 1 help me? my router changes every 2 min my dns server and i havent the password of the router
[08:53] <Flannel> Xenon|gnome: install php5-cli
[08:53] <Xenon|gnome> ah

[08:53] <Xenon|gnome> true..
[08:53] <Xenon|gnome> it was that

[08:53] <Sayers> Flannel : what is the latest release? Warty?
[08:53] <SuBStandard> dhclinet?
[08:53] <IndyGunFreak> SuBStandard: can you do a manual reset of the router?..
[08:54] <SuBStandard> no :(
[08:54] <Flannel> Sayers: no.  Warty is the oldest.  Edgy is 6.10, Dapper is 6.06
[08:54] <IndyGunFreak> that will reset the password to factory defaults
[08:54] <erUSUL> Prez_: i can no use 2.6.20 myself becouse my wifi driver does not work with it too... :( stuck in 2.6.19
[08:54] <Xenon|gnome> thx a lot
[08:54] <IndyGunFreak> SuBStandard: yes you can
[08:54] <Xenon|gnome> :=
[08:54] <Slayer> Hi
[08:54] <Xenon|gnome> :)
[08:54] <_raphael_> how do I get the crossfire server to start at every boot?
[08:54] <nexousNET> I get an error while saving in Bluefish, it just opens Bug Buddy (bug reporting tool) and says that the bug is unknown.. Anyone know anything about this?
[08:54] <Flannel> Sayers: you can also do searching using Synaptic, on your own computer.  Which is how you'd install anyway, so it works out like that
[08:54] <SuBStandard> my bro haves the password...
[08:54] <IndyGunFreak> uh, ask him fo rit.
[08:54] <Prez_> erUSUL: guess will try 2.6.19
[08:55] <iulian_> can I execute a command after a wget download finish?
[08:55] <SuBStandard> yea ^^ i dont think that he gives me the password ^^
[08:55] <Sayers> Flannel : I used to use debian, but I am back on windows. I would like to switch back, but debian had one problem, the fan control was not automatic, so I had problems with the APM deal. Fan was always at max power and got annoying

[08:55] <deathplanter> how to customize boot splash?
[08:56] <tonyyarusso> !usplash | deathplanter
[08:56] <ubotu> deathplanter: To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[08:56] <_raphael_> lufis: that launches it every time I login,right?
[08:56] <deathplanter> tonyyarusso: thx
[08:56] <bulmer> iulian_: just wait for wget to get done and then do ls -la
[08:56] <Slayer> jhahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[08:59] <nexousNET> What language do I want to learn to be able to customize Ubuntu?
[08:59] <lufis> _raphael_: i dunno myself, like i said.
[08:59] <Sayers> So does ubuntu have a built in automatic power manger?
[08:59] <tonyyarusso> nexousNET: Depends.  What do you want to do?
[08:59] <tonyyarusso> Sayers: gnome-power-manager (or maybe management?) I think is it.
[09:00] <nexousNET> tonyyarusso: Well I don't want to do much 'application based' such as customizing opensource programs but, the core of ubuntu.
[09:00] <zedlander> nexousNET: To customize ubuntu, you mainly need to know how to use google and follow instructions.
[09:00] <Sayers> tonyyarusso ; I am on a desktop I think that is for the laptop
[09:00] <BFTD> hey, um how well does Ubuntu run with the Airport cards in macs?
[09:00] <nexousNET> zedlander: thanks, big help...
[09:00] <tonyyarusso> nexousNET: C and Python would be the big ones, to my knowledge.  Lots of things don't even take coding skill to customize though.
[09:01] <Gaz_> help! i've added repositories to synaptic and now it shows E: Malformed line 40 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist parse)
[09:01] <Gaz_> E: Unable to lock the list directory
[09:01] <nixnoob> can anyone help me with vncserver?
[09:01] <zedlander> nexousNET: Really, everything I've ever wanted to change I found out how to do online.
[09:01] <sproingie> nexousNET: the core of ubuntu would be the linux kernel.  you'll need C for that, probably a little asm
[09:01] <Gaz_> what do i do?
[09:01] <iulian_> bulmer, nice nice. I'll give you an example: I start a download with wget and I want to shutdown the pc after it finishes. The must be automatic because I am sleeping or I'm not near PC
[09:01] <Flannel> Gaz_: pastebin your sources.list (since it's got an error in it)
[09:01] <tonyyarusso> Sayers: I think it's probably only auto-installed on laptops, but might work on a desktop too optionally?
[09:01] <nexousNET> tonyyarusso: are they mostly just, via editing files with some basic knowledge?
[09:01] <iulian_> bulmer,  is this possible? :)
[09:01] <Flannel> iulian_: just do wget [stuff]  && shutdown -h now
[09:01] <Sayers> tonyyarusso:  In other words are your fans always max power?
[09:01] <tonyyarusso> nexousNET: Yeah, editing config files in /etc/ and such would be the main thing.
[09:01] <genii> likely you forgot to add the word deb in front of the repo url
[09:01] <nexousNET> tonyyarusso: okay thanks.
[09:02] <tonyyarusso> Sayers: Not sure - I haven't paid enough attention to my desktop ;)  Try it!
[09:02] <Sayers> tonyyarusso : not sure that I just want to jump over
[09:03] <bulmer> iulian_: yes its easy...do a wget http://whaever && shutdown -r now  something like this.. the && says execute the next command the 1st completes
[09:03] <tonyyarusso> Sayers: You could take a poke at the forums if nobody knows; I'm not quite sure how that's handled.
[09:03] <iulian_> Flannel, thanks. I am new to linux so I ask questions that are stupid for you. But I learn... :) Thanks again
[09:03] <iulian_> bulmer, thanks for help
[09:03] <pirothezero> so i installed gnome and xfce tried out gnome first mouse accell was though the roof so i go to change it and now it doesnt move from the lowest setting, no matter what I do, a great start lol.
[09:04] <Gaz_> Flannel: thanks! it's sorted now :)
[09:04] <Flannel> iulian_: hardly stupid.
[09:04] <sproingie> hm, can i just alien the ATI driver RPM, or should i use their big installer thingie?
[09:04] <Gaz_> Flannel: I deleted the line it mentioned and now it works beautifully :)
[09:04] <thelsdj> anyone have a link for how to replace the totem browser plugin with mplayer?

[09:05] <IndyGunFreak> !someone | nixnoob
[09:05] <ubotu> nixnoob: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[09:05] <nixnoob> indygunfreak that was not necessary.
[09:05] <skiloup> $vncserver -geometry 1024x768 :1
[09:05] <IndyGunFreak> nixnoob: just ask, thats all thats necessary
[09:05] <zedlander> nixnoob: System -> Preferenceso -> Remote Desktop
[09:05] <IndyGunFreak> asking to ask a question is whats not necessary
[09:05] <dumbintel> OK so i got a new icon pack, how do I install it?
[09:06] <lufis> dumbintel: drag it into the themes window
[09:06] <dumbintel> k :)
[09:06] <skiloup> I've got an inspiron 6400 with the Ricoh Co Ltd R5C822 SD/SDIO/MMC/MS/MSPro Host Adapter.  How can I get this sucker working?
[09:06] <nixnoob> zedlander i get connection reset by peer 104
[09:07] <linxeh> skiloup: I've got the same in my 9300 and it worked out of the box with Edgy
[09:07] <zedlander> nixnoob: is your network working?
[09:07] <nixnoob> yes
[09:07] <adam_> witam

[09:08] <Xerroz> anyone know of a top-like utility that shows which process is accessing the hd?
[09:08] <scienceboy> i've got another question. how do i install java on linux? i went to java.com, but i don't know which to download, and once i do, how to install it.
[09:08] <Night_Owl> bulmer, you have any ideas on how to stop my Edgy box from losing DSL connection a few minutes after it's been started?
[09:08] <scienceboy> help please!
[09:09] <Flannel> !java | scienceboy
[09:09] <ubotu> scienceboy: 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. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[09:09] <zedlander> nixnoob: I really don't know what the problem is then.  Try googling it, maybe.
[09:09] <nixnoob> i have. but thanks anyway
[09:09] <scienceboy> oh, ok
[09:09] <bulmer> Xerroz: look into fuser or lsof
[09:09] <linxeh> skiloup: ah, mine only has SD not Memory stick
[09:09] <zedlander> skiloup: Why you asking me?
[09:09] <scienceboy> thanks~
[09:09] <wiz> what package do I need to install to be able to mount nfs shares?
[09:09] <bulmer> Night_Owl: why is it even losing your DSL connection?
[09:09] <sproingie> good golly, amd's download site takes FOREVER
[09:10] <zedlander> nixnoob: Hope you figure it out.
[09:10] <linxeh> nixnoob: you aren't meant to run xvnc directly iirc, you are menat to use the vncserver wrapper
[09:10] <linxeh> I might have the wrong end of the stick though
[09:10] <nixnoob> linxeh i get connection reset by peer when i attempt to vncviewer localhost:0
[09:11] <bulmer> Night_Owl: if it losses your connection, at the next connection does it have a new ip address?
[09:11] <Night_Owl> bulmer: Up until *just* now I didn't have a clue.. I think I *might* now though.
[09:11] <valehru> Does anyone have experience with ffmpeg?  Im trying to get an AVI -> FLV with sound.  ffmpeg -y -i .avi -acodec mp3 -ar 22050 -f flv test.flv  The error I am getting is ffmpeg -y -i .avi -acodec mp3 -ar 22050 -f flv test.flv
[09:11] <valehru> the error is Unsupported codec for output stream #0.1
[09:12] <bulmer> nixnoob: you may have to   xhost +localhost
[09:12] <Night_Owl> My ISP only supports up to two connections from the same account at the same time. I'm on one with my XP box (this one). I want to use the other on my Ubuntu box. Somehow it's taking two.
[09:12] <dorbec8> AMD-; any luck yet?
[09:13] <pleed> can someone help me with ipw3945 under ndiswrapper (dapper) ? it says driver presen, hardware present, loads with modprobe but i have no device in ifconfig!
[09:13] <bulmer> Night_Owl: umm..how many modems you have that connects to your ISP ?
[09:13] <valehru> nm...got it working...
[09:13] <soweto76> upgraded to Feisty4 -- what is this:  Booting paravirtualized kernel on bare hardware ?
[09:13] <Night_Owl> One. I run through a switch.

[09:13] <nixnoob> bulmer still no luck
[09:14] <soweto76> Flannel, thanks
[09:14] <bulmer> Night_Owl: so you have a router/modem...so where is the issue? you need to configure your router/modem?
[09:14] <williammanda> can someone tell me what would be the easiest way to file share between my computers? i would like to setup data files one computer so the others can easily access them
[09:14] <ricky_> anyone know how to make amule faster?
[09:15] <skiloup> anybody have a memory stick card reader working?
[09:15] <Night_Owl> I think it's just a matter of telling Ubuntu to use *one* connection not *two*
[09:15] <bulmer> nixnoob: what did you do so far?
[09:15] <Night_Owl> bulmer, think my /etc/network/interfaces might be interfering there?
[09:16] <nixnoob> bulmer, if i vncviewer localhost:0 i get main: End of stream right away.
[09:16] <lyris1> hope im not interrupting - but can anyone here tell a Linux newbie why he needs to press the  and  keys twice to make the character appear?
[09:16] <ricky_> anyone know how to make amule faster?
[09:16] <GasBrander> hi

[09:19] <Night_Owl> bulmer: So now I have to figure out how to remove ppp1, and possibly ppp0 too.
[09:19] <aqquariuss> ricky_, first of all, forward the on your router if you use one, you can find howtos on the net for specific routers
[09:20] <wolfey> hello how can i run a shell file from konqueror?
[09:20] <wolfey> i can run it from command line
[09:20] <wolfey> but konqueror only shows 'open with kate'
[09:21] <aqquariuss> ricky_, and then, unblock the ports in iptables... instead, you can use a firewall called firestarter which gives you gui
[09:21] <Sapristi> Hiya folks! How would I go about if I wanted to configure a livecd that corresponds to my own needs and settings?
[09:21] <wolfey> shell script i mean
[09:21] <ricky_> aqquariuss ok
[09:21] <wiz> every time I try to mount my nfs shares I get mount: RPC: Timed out
[09:21] <wiz> how can I fix that?
[09:21] <Sapristi> I'd specifically want to 1) save the wlan-settings 2) save the keyboard settings 3) fiddle with my screen resolution
[09:21] <bulmer> nixnoob: what error you get ? look at /var/log/messages for additional details perhaps

[09:25] <kkerwin> Hi. How can I specify which version of gcc I use in compiling a program?
[09:25] <pottie> how can i see the hardware my system is made up of
[09:25] <kkerwin> pottie: lspci
[09:25] <wolfey> pottie: dmesg for loaded drivers, lspci for hardware
[09:26] <Flannel> pottie: lshw too
[09:26] <pottie> thanks
[09:26] <tonyyarusso> kkerwin: You can export the compiler variable in bash ahead of time...but I forget the name of the var right now.
[09:26] <kkerwin> tonyyarusso: Hmm. Figured it might be something like that.
[09:26] <kkerwin> You know, I really wish there was a database somewhere of environment variables ...
[09:26] <Sapristi> Nobody's fiddled with his/her Live-CD?
[09:27] <Shrimpy> hello, i'm still haveing trouble with my screen resultion can somebody help me?
[09:27] <ricmik> Hi! What would you recommend to record DVD-ISOs?
[09:27] <lufis> ricmik: on windows or ubuntu?
[09:27] <zedlander> Sapristi: I've messed a bit with Live CD's
[09:27] <ricmik> ubuntu
[09:27] <wolfey> ricmik: k3b
[09:27] <lufis> ricmik: I like k2b, though gnomebaker is more at home in ubuntu
[09:27] <lufis> k3b*
[09:27] <Sapristi> zedlander: Nice. Have you managed to burn a CD tailored to your specific needs?
[09:27] <kkerwin> tonyyarusso: COMPILER_PATH seems to do the trick.
[09:27] <wolfey> i use gnme, still k3b is best
[09:27] <wolfey> gnome
[09:28] <wolfey> about only kde program i use
[09:28] <ricmik> I'll try k3b ;)
[09:28] <lufis> Shrimpy: what's the issue?
[09:28] <zedlander> Sapristi: I put a custom live cd image on my USB key.
[09:29] <tonyyarusso> kkerwin: ah, cool
[09:29] <Sapristi> zedlander: Yeah, it's something like that I need. The PC I'd really need the image on, though, is a bit too old for usb-booting
[09:29] <Shrimpy> i can not change the resolution   and i've tried 915resolution and it does not seem to be working
[09:29] <zedlander> It should be a similar process though.  Let me try to find the articles I used.
[09:29] <Sapristi> zedlander: How do you fix up a custom image of the CD?
[09:29] <crimsun> Shrimpy: are you using feisty or edgy?
[09:29] <lufis> Shrimpy: what's your video card?
[09:29] <Sapristi> zedlander: That'd be nice, thx
[09:29] <Shrimpy> edgy
[09:30] <crimsun> Shrimpy: forget 915resolution and xserver-xorg-video-i810. Use xserver-xorg-video-i810-modesetting instead.
[09:31] <nixnoob> bulmer i got it to connect but all i get is a grey screen?
[09:31] <Lice> is there a way to create a tar.gz file of a map trough the console with a application that is in the live cd?
[09:31] <Shrimpy> crimsun: how do i do that
[09:31] <Shrimpy> lufis: its an intel
[09:31] <crimsun> Shrimpy: you install it.
[09:31] <zedlander> Sapristi: Here's a guide for Dapper: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization/6.06
[09:31] <wolfey> Lice: tar cvzf archive.tar.gz yourmap
[09:32] <nixnoob> Shrimpy did you get your video card drivers installed?
[09:32] <Lice> okey thx VERY Much
[09:32] <wolfey> compress verbose gzip force
[09:32] <wolfey> :)
[09:32] <Lice> now mom wont have to kill me for ruining her OS xD
[09:32] <Shrimpy> nixnoob: negative
[09:32] <lufis> Shrimpy: have you tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[09:32] <nixnoob> What happened?
[09:32] <Shrimpy> lufis: nope i'll try it now
[09:32] <lufis> Shrimpy: sometimes the wrong driver gets selected automatically
[09:32] <Shrimpy> nixnoob: nothing likes me
[09:32] <lufis> Shrimpy: make sure it's i810
[09:32] <Sapristi> zedlander: Sweet, thx. I'm using Edgy, but the process should be the same, aye?
[09:32] <Shrimpy> lufis:alright i'll be back
[09:32] <wolfey> Lice: i made my parents buy another computer
[09:32] <wolfey> :)
[09:33] <yomm> I need some directions on how to make a /dev/* (hd) ,out of an img ,or
[09:33] <nixnoob> anyone know how to fix grey screen in vncviewer?
[09:33] <zedlander> Sapristi: I think so, since there's no newer one.
[09:33] <wolfey> parents expect XP :P
[09:33] <wolfey> that's evil
[09:33] <yomm> I need some directions on how to make a /dev/* (hd) ,out of an IMG ,or ISO !

[09:33] <JuanTelez> hi everyone
[09:33] <williammanda> can someone tell me what would be the easiest way to file share between my computers? i would like to setup data files one computer so the others can easily access them
[09:34] <zedlander> Sapristi: No problem.
[09:34] <Rei-chan> How do I make it, in Ubuntu Gnome, so that each desktop has a different background?
[09:34] <wolfey> williammanda: ftp is easiest
[09:34] <wolfey> williammanda: apt-get install proftpd
[09:34] <wolfey> samba is more complicated, but you can give your shares to windows boxes
[09:34] <nixnoob> zedlander i got vnc to connect but i get a grey screen any ideas?
[09:34] <JuanTelez> sorry, how can I know if I have installed ubuntu 32 bits or 64 bits? I can't remember :S
[09:35] <crimsun> JuanTelez: uname -m
[09:35] <yomm> Flannel : I'm familiar with the mount/loop/iso options ! I need to recreate a former raid5 array ,and I have four disk images :)
[09:35] <JuanTelez> thanks a lot crimsun
[09:35] <crimsun> JuanTelez: or, dpkg --print-architecture
[09:35] <yomm> Flannel , so I need to make the dev's out the isos
[09:35] <JuanTelez> crimsun: i686 means 64 bits
[09:35] <JuanTelez> '?
[09:36] <kitche> JuanTelez: means x86
[09:36] <zedlander> nixnoob: Sorry, I don't know.
[09:36] <vox754> JuanTelez, NOOOOO!
[09:36] <JuanTelez> hah
[09:36] <Lice> wolfey i just configured everything right bla bla
[09:36] <wolfey> i686 is generic name for pentium 2 - pentium 4
[09:36] <Lice> and had some things running on my windows so i tried sadonay or what ever that linux is called
[09:36] <Lice> and then the power went of
[09:36] <Lice> and then i couldnt start ubuntu again
[09:36] <Gaz_> in kubuntu i used to press ctrl-esc to kill processes... how do i do this in ubuntu?
[09:37] <Lice> i tried the thing on my moms laptop :p
[09:37] <kitche> JuanTelez: you can tell what you need to install by what your processor is
[09:37] <kkerwin> Grr ... now I can't find the COMPILER_PATH for gcc-3.4. My program still complains about compiling with 4.x. I've varified that I have gcc-3.4 installed, but how can I specify which compiler my machine uses?
[09:37] <JuanTelez> I'm getting differets results whit the two ways you said crimsun ---> http://rafb.net/p/L6kfer95.html
[09:38] <wolfey> Lice: great, worked?
[09:38] <tonyyarusso> kkerwin: dpkg -L gcc-3.4 | grep bin ?
[09:38] <Lice> the tar thing?
[09:38] <Night_Owl> Well, I *might* have it
[09:38] <Lice> i brought the laptop to my room so i'm starting it now
[09:38] <Lice> i hope it works
[09:39] <Lice> is it possible to gain access to the hda2 to write and not only read?
[09:39] <kkerwin> tonyyarusso: Awesome. Thanks for teaching me a new trick to locate files installed by packages.
[09:39] <Lice> that would be a life saver to :p
[09:39] <wolfey> Lice: you boot from livecd?
[09:39] <Lice> yes
[09:39] <wolfey> Lice: is hda2 already mounted?
[09:39] <crimsun> JuanTelez: those aren't different.
[09:39] <JuanTelez> kitche: a know my processor is AMD64 but now I want to know what ubuntu I has install in this machine if 32 or 64 bits
[09:39] <Lice> nope
[09:39] <Fryguy--> anybody here use apt as opposed to gem to manage ruby packages such as rails?
[09:40] <crimsun> JuanTelez: you installed and are currently running the 32-bit (ia32) install.
[09:40] <Flannel> JuanTelez: what kernel are you using?
[09:40] <Flannel> nevermind.  crimsun knows ;)
[09:40] <JuanTelez> thanks crimsun
[09:40] <wolfey> Lice: make a directory under /mnt ... then mount /dev/hda2 /mnt/newdirectory
[09:40] <JuanTelez> sorry for take so long to understand something that simple
[09:40] <wolfey> newdirectory.. directory you create
[09:41] <Lice> then chown +w?
[09:41] <Shrimpy> lufis: its talking about my mouse is that normal
[09:41] <lufis> Shrimpy: yes, you can just select the default for most stuff
[09:41] <Shrimpy> ok
[09:41] <wolfey> Lice: ahh
[09:41] <wolfey> wait
[09:41] <wolfey> Lice: you want to mount so its owned by user, not root
[09:41] <wolfey> root has write access by default
[09:41] <lufis> Shrimpy: it will ask about monitor syncranges, google your monitor model and the word "specifications" if it doesn't get it right
[09:42] <Lice> hmm
[09:42] <williammanda> ty wolfey but that ftp is too involved
[09:42] <williammanda>  can someone tell me what would be the easiest way to file share between my computers? i would like to setup data files one computer so the others can easily access them
[09:42] <Lice> well i could mount it as root then tar it with root and then send it
[09:43] <wolfey> williammanda: samba, ftp, http, nfs...
[09:43] <wolfey> all options
[09:44] <williammanda> is there anything easy like file sharing in windows?
[09:44] <Flannel> williammanda: that'd be samba or nfs
[09:45] <Shrimpy> lufis: alrighty i'm done but i hit enter a lot
[09:45] <wolfey> Lice: well easiest is to mount partition... sudo mount /dev/hda2 /mnt/directory ; sudo chown -R yourusername /mnt/directory
[09:45] <Shrimpy> lufis: now is there anything i should do now?
[09:45] <Lice> ok thx
[09:45] <lufis> Shrimpy: restart x by pressing ctrl alt backspace
[09:45] <wolfey> the later would change owner of everything to your username, i think
[09:45] <lufis> Shrimpy: it will close the irc client tho
[09:45] <lufis> Shrimpy: so see you in a minute :P
[09:45] <Shrimpy> lufis: ok see ya!
[09:46] <kkerwin> tonyyarusso: Ok. I've tried "COMPILER_PATH=/usr/bin/gcc-3.4 ./configure", without any luck. Any other ideas?
[09:46] <Sapristi> Hmm...my memory isn't what it used to be...how should I go about in order to boot my Ubuntu system into termianl mode?
[09:46] <wolfey> Sapristi: ctrl-alt+f1 would switch to terminal
[09:46] <Rayko> i all
[09:46] <Rayko> i needh elp
[09:47] <Rayko> need help*
[09:47] <wolfey> ctrl-alt+f7 back to graphics
[09:47] <Night_Owl> "Hmm...my memory isn't what it used to be..." <--- Try upgrading to DDR2 ^^
[09:47] <tonyyarusso> kkerwin: export COMPILER_PATH=/usr/bin/gcc-3.4 && ./configure, separately?
[09:47] <Lice> it kinda don't do anything ^^
[09:47] <Sapristi> wolfey: And if I want to boot straight into termianl?
[09:47] <Fryguy--> what package contains ruby-gems?
[09:47] <Rayko> can anyone help me i am having problems with my speakers and it's not a harware problem it's ubuntu related
[09:47] <kkerwin> tonyyarusso: No joy.
[09:47] <elfranger> Hi all
[09:47] <pianoboy3333> Is there a quick way to convert a bunch of odt files to doc files?
[09:48] <elfranger> how do I add a startup thingy that starts on demand?
[09:48] <wolfey> Sapristi: remove kdm/gdm from boot sequence
[09:48] <tonyyarusso> kkerwin: um, then "I forget".  Hit the wiki yet?
[09:48] <wolfey> Sapristi: i dont know how to do that in ubuntu
[09:48] <wolfey> i know in gentoo
[09:48] <Rayko> can anyone help me i am having problems with my speakers and it's not a harware problem it's ubuntu related
[09:48] <kkerwin> wolfey: Ya. Something like "gcc-select" or something like that.
[09:48] <Rayko> please?
[09:48] <Rayko> anyone?
[09:48] <elfranger> not sure how to explain it, but my proftpd is not running all the time, it starts when someone accesses the ftp port...
[09:48] <kkerwin> tonyyarusso: Alright. Heading there.
[09:48] <Sapristi> wolfey: OK. I seem to remember that some distros specified a certain runlevel as terminal mode.
[09:48] <tonyyarusso> !startup | elfranger
[09:48] <ubotu> elfranger: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup
[09:48] <Sapristi> Does that go for Ubuntu as well?
[09:48] <wolfey> kkerwin: rc-update delete kdm
[09:48] <jramsey> better?
[09:49] <Rayko> can anyone help me i am having problems with my speakers and it's not a harware problem it's ubuntu related
[09:49] <Rayko> help please :(
[09:49] <lufis> Rayko: no sound works at all?
[09:49] <tonyyarusso> Sapristi: in Ubuntu runlevels 2-5 are identical, until you tell them not to be.
[09:49] <wolfey> Sapristi: they have a list of what to load in what sequence from /etc/init.d/
[09:49] <kkerwin> wolfey: But I like using kdm.
[09:49] <Rayko> yes, my right speaker used to work in the beginning
[09:49] <jramsey> ALT-printscreen saves to file (i want this) but only the active window; how can i save entire screen to file?
[09:49] <Lice> very thx wolfey!!! (L)
[09:49] <Rayko> left did nothing
[09:49] <wolfey> Lice: worked'
[09:49] <wolfey> ?
[09:49] <kkerwin> wolfey: ?? Was that a mis?
[09:49] <Rayko> and i rebooted
[09:49] <Lice> well kinda :p
[09:49] <Rayko> and now my left one gives a loud, high beeping tone
[09:49] <Lice> chown took to much time
[09:49] <Rayko> and my right one just works
[09:49] <elfranger> tonyarusso: no no no, ubuntu server, no gui.. I want something to start when they, say try to access ftp on my server...
[09:49] <Lice> so i just did sudo tar cvzf
[09:49] <RedWorm> why did ubuntu do away with tty run lvl 2?
[09:50] <Iced_Kirby> I'm back
[09:50] <Iced_Kirby> I'm Iced
[09:50] <Sapristi> tonyaarusso, sapristi: OK, I'll see what I can do
[09:50] <wolfey> kkerwin: heh
[09:50] <Rayko> any idea?
[09:50] <wolfey> probably
[09:50] <Lice> now..
[09:50] <wolfey> kkerwin: sorry
[09:50] <kkerwin> wolfey: No prob. Was just confused.
[09:50] <Lice> how is the easiest way to get to a ftp server and send a file?
[09:50] <tonyyarusso> elfranger: Aaah.  You mean you need something to start when they try to access it, or you need the ftp server to start on boot?
[09:50] <zyth> So.. is there any really good reason for me to upgrade from a radeon 9600 to a geforce 7800? I am considering doing, but linux isnt exactly known for its awesome 3d gaming experience, so would I really see any benefit in games?
[09:50] <Lice> or nvm..
[09:50] <wolfey> Lice: ftp server
[09:50] <Iced_Kirby> What was the name of that guy what was helping me?
[09:51] <Iced_Kirby> PLEASE I DONT REMEMBER'
[09:51] <elfranger> no, ftp server starts when someone tries to access port 21 on my server... but I can't remember how I did that... I now want VLC to start the same way...
[09:51] <jrib> Iced_Kirby: please don't use caps.   scroll back seems to show vox754 was talking to you
[09:51] <elfranger> tonyarusso: so yes, I want VLC to start when someone tries to access port 8080
[09:51] <tonyyarusso> elfranger: That I'm not sure - was it some weird iptables thing?
[09:51] <humbolto> is there a way to tunnel nfs or cifs through ssh?
[09:52] <wolfey> zyth: i have 9600xt and will only consider upgrade when unreal tournament 2007 is released
[09:52] <Iced_Kirby> jrib: Thank you so much
[09:52] <Rayko> can anyone help me on my speaker problem? anyone please PM me :(
[09:52] <wolfey> zyth: other than that i see no reason
[09:52] <nixnoob> ok i can now login to vncserver and i get a grey screen with a terminal is there a way to get a gnome desktop instead?
[09:52] <elfranger> tonyarusso: no, wasn't weird... just a way of setting the startup I guess...
[09:52] <Iced_Kirby> vox754: Vox! You there?
[09:52] <zyth> wolfey, yeah.. I mean, I'd love to play oblivion and if I could I'd upgrade in a second, but it doesnt exactly work in wine ;)
[09:52] <wolfey> zyth: cedega?:)
[09:52] <elfranger> something with rc.d or something...
[09:52] <Night_Owl> ok.. looks like I'm up and running now.. thanks all
[09:52] <tonyyarusso> elfranger: Try grepping for the port and such in various places until whatever you did before turns up I'd say, as I really don't know how that would work - sounds kinda cool.
[09:53] <lufis> Rayko: are you not getting my messages?
[09:53] <Iced_Kirby> What server did vox754 tell me to join?
[09:53] <Rayko> Lufis: no i'm not
[09:53] <Iced_Kirby> Can you scroll up please?
[09:53] <humbolto> or let me rephrase this question: imagine I have files on a server in the wlan outside my subnet and behind a firewall, which I control. what is the best way to play these movie files on my desktop without copying them from the server?
[09:53] <lufis> Rayko: huh. i just sent three
[09:53] <zyth> wolfey, wont pay for a crappy wine rip-off that doesnt support much anything else I want to play that wine doesnt... and it doesnt work there either ;)
[09:53] <Hasrat_USA> what's up everyone?
[09:53] <Rayko> lufis: weird
[09:53] <wolfey> zyth: i get cedega from minimova.org
[09:53] <wolfey> :)
[09:53] <Rayko> lufis: can you read my messages? and do you have MSN?
[09:53] <elfranger> isn't there something like launch proftpd on demand?
[09:53] <lufis> Rayko: is it your speakers or the soundcard or what?
[09:54] <black_13> how do i reinstall a deb package
[09:54] <lufis> Rayko: msn: samuella@gmail.com
[09:54] <Rayko> lufis: thanks
[09:54] <wolfey> elfranger: that would be inetd ... but sleeping daemon is harmless anyway
[09:54] <elfranger> how can I figure that out? like, what is kicking my proftpd in when someone tries to access ftp?
[09:54] <lufis> black_13: sudo dpkg -i <package>
[09:54] <elfranger> wolfey; cool, looking in inetd then
[09:54] <lufis> black_13: or just double-click it if you're on edgy
[09:55] <Hasrat_USA> 15:55:00 up 20:09,  1 user,  load average: 0.20, 0.20, 0.18
[09:55] <black_13> that installs the package what about installation?
[09:55] <wolfey> elfranger: do you have ftp ports open? http://slacksite.com/other/ftp.html
[09:55] <elfranger> wolfey: any idea how to get vlc into inetd?
[09:55] <lufis> black_13: what do you mean?
[09:55] <Lice> damn
[09:55] <wolfey> i dont use inetd
[09:55] <wolfey> but that's what it is for
[09:55] <elfranger> wolfey: ftp is ok... I just need to add the vlc too...
[09:55] <Lice> wolfey i cannot write to a ntfs system..
[09:55] <wolfey> Lice: quite possible:)
[09:55] <vox754> Iced_Kirby, that hot dog was tasty, come #vocx
[09:55] <black_13> lufis, i may have deleted part of what a package installed i need to replace the missing files
[09:55] <elfranger> wolfey: so you mean I should just launch the vlc daemon at boot then?
[09:55] <wolfey> yes elfranger
[09:55] <Lice> wolfey just have to find my usb memory now...where ever it now is..
[09:56] <lufis> black_13: oh, ok. go into synaptic and mark it to be reinstalled. that should do it
[09:56] <Hasrat_USA> yes lice you're not supposed to. there is a new beta tool available that can write to NTFS, but since it's beta it's not recommended
[09:56] <wolfey> Lice: ntfs support isnt too great
[09:56] <elfranger> wolfey: cool... care to refresh my memory? Where do I add the vlc command line to launch it at boot?
[09:56] <black_13> !synaptic
[09:56] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto

[09:58] <lufis> black_13: search for the package name, find it and select "Reinstall" by clicking the box next to it. then click "apply" at the top
[09:58] <Hasrat_USA> elfranger: um i just typed vlc in command prompt and it started the application. what's your problem?
[09:59] <jrib> nblracer: can you refresh my memory?
[09:59] <Hasrat_USA> VLC media player 0.8.6 Janus
[09:59] <Lice> gahh i'm so happy :D
[09:59] <elfranger> hasrat: I know that.. I seem to have forgot where to put it to start it when the server boots...
[09:59] <Lice> got it to work finally thx wolfey
[09:59] <Hasrat_USA> you want vlc to automatically start up when the server boots?
[09:59] <Hasrat_USA> yes or no?
[10:00] <elfranger> yes
[10:00] <Hasrat_USA> ok
[10:00] <tjl30> I got this error E: Type 'sudo' is not known on line 37 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:00] <Lice> wolfey untill the whole computer hang up xD
[10:01] <ypSami> you pasted a command into your sources.list
[10:01] <jrib> tjl30: k, now pastebin /etc/apt/sources.list please
[10:01] <Hasrat_USA> elfranger: go to system > preferences > sessions
[10:01] <nblracer> jrib, sorry about that. The problem was i could not update since a packedge was broken, and my drive was locked
[10:01] <tjl30> how do I do that ?
[10:01] <elfranger> hasrat: I have no GUI...
[10:01] <black_13> lufis, thanks
[10:01] <lufis> black_13: np
[10:01] <elfranger> hasrat: this is a server...'
[10:01] <nblracer> well after a reboot the command worked
[10:01] <jrib> nblracer: what package?  pastebin the error you get
[10:01] <strobedream> does anyone know how to reset which packages have the hold flag so none of them do?
[10:01] <Hasrat_USA> lol okay
[10:01] <elfranger> hasrat: command line only
[10:01] <nblracer> jrib http://pastebin.com/888793
[10:02] <nblracer> jrib the command is on line 50
[10:02] <Lice> wolfey gahh forgot to mount the usb to the map :P
[10:02] <jrib> nblracer: it's loading, you should use a different pastebin service.  For example, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[10:02] <[WaZ] > yeah pastebin.com is painfully slow
[10:02] <ypSami> pastebin.ca
[10:03] <wolfey> Lice: heh
[10:03] <Lice> ^^
[10:03] <elfranger> hasrat: should I use init.d?
[10:03] <jrib> nblracer: enter this command please and tell me the output:  apt-cache policy samba
[10:03] <jinxuhuang> hi im using a ECS P4M800 Pro-M s3 unichrome IGP pentium D805 and IDE harddrives and CD rom no extra pci/agp cards wut so ever according to theloveoflinux.com my hardware is 100 percent linux friendly however i keep on getting loading hardware drivers fail when installing xubuntu 6.06 can someone plz help me, i ran both safe video and normal mode.
[10:04] <jinxuhuang> how do i swithc to consol/ or just at least see the error log?
[10:04] <Hasrat_USA> hang on a second elfranger
[10:04] <wolfey> jinxuhuang: cat /var/log/messages
[10:04] <Lunar_Lamp> jinxuhuang, does it say which drivers fail to load?
[10:04] <wolfey> dmesg
[10:04] <vox754> jinxuhuang, do a test of the disk.
[10:04] <jinxuhuang> wolfey but i can't even get to consol
[10:04] <katami> I have finally gotten ubuntu to install after 4 hours and i'm trying to install beryl and i'm following the tutorial on the site to the exact
[10:05] <wolfey> jinxuhuang: where are you?
[10:05] <wolfey> in graphics mode?
[10:05] <katami> and it's not frickin workin, just syas package not found
[10:05] <ypSami> Anybody know how to fix the problem with fglx not running properly on an IBM Thinkpad A31p (even though it worked fine with fedora core, and suse)
[10:05] <jinxuhuang> wolfey im at loading hardware driver ...............fail
[10:05] <katami> any ideas on why it has to fail with package not found
[10:05] <jrib> katami: #ubuntu-effects for help with installing beryl
[10:05] <wolfey> katami: perhaps you need to enable universe and multiverse in /etc/apt/sources.list and apt-get update
[10:05] <Hasrat_USA> elf gedit /etc/rc.local
[10:05] <tonyyarusso> ypSami: I have a T43p, and just avoid fglrx entirely.  It's a buggy mess.
[10:05] <wolfey> jinxuhuang: well dmesg shows kernel log
[10:05] <Hasrat_USA> then put whatever you want before exit:0
[10:06] <ypSami> tonyyarusso: That's what I assumed =) Darn
[10:06] <katami> the tutorial had me add sources to the list
[10:06] <jinxuhuang> wolfey then i do alt ctrl f1 i get uncrompressing linux .........ok booting the kernel . then freeze
[10:06] <Hasrat_USA> now it's lunch time with AntiTrust playing in VLC :)
[10:06] <gradin> i've got an issue... anybody use deny hosts?
[10:06] <ypSami> tonyyarusso: fedora core 6 came with 1 click setup of fglx and compiz =(
[10:06] <wolfey> jinxuhuang: sorry to hear that
[10:06] <elfranger> hasrat: do not have exit:0 anywhere..
[10:06] <vox754> jinxuhuang, run the normal Ubuntu CD. I think it is always more stable than Kubuntu or Xubuntu.
[10:06] <gradin> upon install of deny hosts i get this error
[10:06] <tonyyarusso> ypSami: Interesting.  Pretty sure I'd rather have the radeon driver though...
[10:06] <Cnl_Delta> hi
[10:06] <Cnl_Delta> whats a mount point during ubuntu install
[10:06] <jinxuhuang> wofey i don't even have consol therefore no cat or dmesg
[10:07] <wolfey> jinxuhuang: yeah
[10:07] <Hasrat_USA> elfranger: did you type gedit /etc/rc.local ?
[10:07] <gradin> python : can't open file '/usr/bin/denyhosts.py': [Errno 2]  no such file or directory
[10:07] <jinxuhuang> vox754 only difference is xfce vs gnome as far as i know
[10:07] <ypSami> tonyyarusso: I'd just like the convenience of having my video card choice not be a big deal. =)
[10:07] <wolfey> jinxuhuang: no idea... i hope somebody else will know
[10:07] <Hasrat_USA> edit the rc.local file and put vlc before exit 0
[10:07] <Hasrat_USA> okay what exactly do you see in that file?
[10:07] <jrib> gradin: you installed deny hosts by using the "denyhosts" package?
[10:07] <tanakorn> Hello, I've install Ubuntu dvd version 6.10.  Why there's no server application include ?
[10:08] <tonyyarusso> ypSami: That's be nice.  We can hope, and send letters to ATI.  :)
[10:08] <ypSami> Graphics card CPU manufacturers need to standardize their darn drivers.
[10:08] <wolfey> tanakorn: which server?:)
[10:08] <gradin> jirb sudo aptitude install denyhosts
[10:08] <nblracer> jrib http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7528/
[10:08] <vox754> jinxuhuang, yes it is. But I had a problem. I booted Kubuntu and it didn't recognized my video so it was hard to install, I used Ubuntu instead and it went fine. Then you can change the desktop if you want.
[10:08] <Cnl_Delta> ATI for anything non M$ is a disaster
[10:08] <tanakorn> wolfey , there is no select item in Add/Remove.
[10:08] <elfranger> hasrat: it starts with path=, then some do_start() ... case ... esac
[10:08] <jinxuhuang> vox754 ok i will try it then.
[10:08] <Rayko> can anyone help me i am having problems with my speakers and it's not a harware problem it's ubuntu related
[10:08] <Rayko> anyone please?
[10:09] <ypSami> Oh well. Back to ruby on rails world. =)
[10:09] <wolfey> tanakorn: i never use graphics interface to adding removing programs
[10:09] <wolfey> ypSami: damn ruby is sexy, i wish i learned it:)
[10:09] <tanakorn> i'm newbie. - -"
[10:09] <wolfey> i just checked syntax a bit
[10:09] <elfranger> hasrat: looks like no reference to any applications that starts at boot...
[10:09] <katami> wolfey, I went back and uncommented them and it still says packages not found
[10:09] <wolfey> katami: did you run   apt-get update   after it
[10:09] <gradin> jrib: yeah i did
[10:10] <Rayko> can anyone help me i am having problems with my speakers and it's not a harware problem it's ubuntu related
[10:10] <Rayko> please? :(
[10:10] <john_the_unique> i installed ubuntu on a friends computer who had windows xp die terribly
[10:10] <katami> no
[10:10] <mcq91> hi, i'm new to Ubuntu and wanted to hear opinions of what app has the best iPod integration. I've been using mediamonkey on Vista and have tried Amarok. thx
[10:10] <katami> that wasn't in the tutorial
[10:10] <ypSami> wolfey: I just happened to fall into a management position for a couple of ruby on rails teams. It's quite an honour =)
[10:10] <john_the_unique> i'd like to make it so he can play flv files in totem
[10:10] <jinxuhuang> is there a way to install only level 3 with ubuntu thne maybe i can find some driver manually, unichrome is very open source friendly so this is a suprise to me to have hardware driver problem
[10:10] <Shrimpy> lufis: i have a problem
[10:10] <john_the_unique> this works on gentoo
[10:10] <lufis> Shrimpy: what happened?
[10:10] <Hasrat_USA> ok
[10:10] <Lice> wolfey what a release..and now i still gotta reinstall whole ubuntu /cry
[10:10] <katami> thanks wolfey
[10:10] <wolfey> ypSami: im into Java mostly, but i checked and ruby is sexiest script language i've seen
[10:10] <Shrimpy> lufis: i get a messed up screen telling me i did not configure it correctly
[10:10] <jrib> nblracer: if no one has any better ideas, I would force the removal of samba and then reinstall it.  Do you want to try that?
[10:10] <elfranger> no worries, I'll look into it tomorrow.
[10:11] <wolfey> ypSami: 10.times print 'hello world'
[10:11] <wolfey> :)
[10:11] <ypSami> wolfey: It's nice when your code reads in plain english
[10:11] <wolfey> that killed me
[10:11] <lufis> Shrimpy: what did it say? was it the monitor's message or xorg's?
[10:11] <nblracer> jrib i dont even know what samba is or dose
[10:11] <wolfey> even more OO than Java
[10:11] <_steven^> hi guys... my wireless interface eth1 somehow disappeared... i cannot get it reinstalled... little wierd. someone has an idea?
[10:11] <katami> Thanks wolfey it's working now ^_^
[10:11] <jrib> nblracer: it lets you share files
[10:11] <wolfey> katami: np
[10:11] <mcq91> hi, i'm new to Ubuntu and wanted to hear opinions of what app has the best iPod integration. I've been using mediamonkey on Vista and have tried Amarok. thx
[10:11] <nblracer> jrib what ever you think is best, i will do
[10:11] <vox754> jinxuhuang, use the aternate CD. It seems strange that you have problem with unichrome drivers, if they don't work the "vesa" driver is used instead.
[10:11] <Fryguy--> any recommendations for a command-line based (or web-interface) torrent client that can act as a daemon of sorts that is easy to manage remotely?
[10:12] <ypSami> mcq91: banshee
[10:12] <jrib> gradin: I'm not on edgy so I'll need to ask you some basic questions to get an idea of what is going on... what gives you that error?  The actual install process?
[10:12] <mcq91> thanks ypSami, i'll check it out.
[10:12] <Shrimpy> lufis: failed to start the x server (your graphical interfacae) it is likely that it is not set up corrctly. would you like to view the X server output to diagnoxe the problem
[10:12] <Hasrat_USA> um sorry elfranger i just know that much.
[10:12] <ypSami> mcq91: I've had horrible integration of my ipods on anything other than banshee
[10:12] <gradin> jrib: when it starts running it after install...
[10:12] <Hasrat_USA> okay
[10:12] <kelsin> Fryguy--: I don't know of one particularly, I'm googling now since I would want one as well, but ANY command line client would be easy to manage using ssh and screen
[10:12] <jinxuhuang> vox754:  ok thx mate i will keep u posted i think alternative just mite work.
[10:12] <lufis> Shrimpy: did you view the output?
[10:12] <wolfey> it's interesting we installed edgy on some toshiba and trident graphics driver didnt work well - funny thing it all works in dapper
[10:13] <Hasrat_USA> now it's lunch time with AntiTrust playing in VLC :)
[10:13] <ypSami> mcq91: You should just install linux on your ipod and make your world better.
[10:13] <wolfey> any comment on that?
[10:13] <Shrimpy> lufis:  i hit yes
[10:13] <Fryguy--> kelsin: seems like a lot of CLI based clients though are for only managing individual torrents, I'd want a single interface to manage a lot of torrents at once (100+ at times)
[10:13] <ferret_0567> Can I install the Xen kernel on Ubuntu 6.10 and compile the NVIDIA kernel module for it?
[10:13] <lufis> Shrimpy: what did it say?
[10:13] <ypSami> Trident graphics hehe
[10:13] <ypSami> that's ollllldskoool
[10:13] <Shrimpy> lufis: and i get a lot of information about window x system and thins
[10:13] <_steven^> can someone help me with my wlan card? it just disappeared in ubuntu...
[10:13] <mcq91> how do i do that, its a 6gen 80gig black. i think its not compatible (at least rockbox doesn't work yet)
[10:13] <ypSami> I remember my first 4mb trident graphics card
[10:13] <Shrimpy> lufis: then i click ok
[10:14] <wolfey> ypSami: well it's ultrathin toshiba notebook and we got it second hand for bargain
[10:14] <jrib> nblracer: ok this will try to force the removal of samba and then we will try installing it,  dpkg -r --force-all samba
[10:14] <ypSami> mcq91: I have the 30gig video. All ipods are compatible with linux I think.
[10:14] <Shrimpy> lufis: adn the it askw would i like to view the dtailed X server output as well
[10:14] <kelsin> Fryguy--: Yeah, I was just pointing out that screen can make any command-line-program remote accessible and easy to manage, I don't know of any nice managers that are cli right now though
[10:14] <lufis> Shrimpy: did it specify what went wrong?
[10:14] <ypSami> wolfey: bargain machines are always good if they make you some money =)
[10:14] <Shrimpy> i dont know how to check that
[10:14] <Fryguy--> kelsin: from my brief looking as I chat in here, I see 2 solutions that seem to jump out, rtorrent and torrentflux
[10:14] <wolfey> ypSami: new sligthly better is 1500 EUR, we got it for 400
[10:14] <vox754> ypSami, Trident 3D Blade or something like that, 32 MB, yeah
[10:15] <wolfey> ypSami: i even learned network boot for it, it doesnt boot from usb cdrom
[10:15] <Iced_Kirby> Guys, Infra Recorder does not work for me. What else can I use to burn the ISO?
[10:15] <wolfey> vox754: that yes
[10:15] <wolfey> cyberblade
[10:15] <Shrimpy> lufis: then it says teh X server is no disabled. Restart GDM when it is confgured correctly
[10:15] <wolfey> 32 mb
[10:15] <gradin> how do you tell what version of python you have installed?
[10:15] <mjrclark> mcq91: I think he was joking.. Amarok is the best I have found, and it still does not do anything above music.
[10:15] <ypSami> wolfey: hell yea. I get second hand DJ equipment all the time. I love thrift =)
[10:15] <Shrimpy> :lufis then i am taken to a black screen where command do not really work
[10:16] <jrib> gradin: python --version
[10:16] <pottie> im trying to figure what nvidia chipset i have
[10:16] <kelsin> Fryguy--: I'm going to be trying rtorrent then, I generally don't need webbased clients
[10:16] <Iced_Kirby> Infra Recorder does not work for me. What else can I use to burn the ISO?
[10:16] <wolfey> ypSami: well it's perfectly preserved for 30% of normal price
[10:16] <wolfey> we cant say no
[10:16] <wolfey> :)
[10:16] <RixiM> is there a document some places that explains the ubuntu booting process, my two nics keep switching eth numbers and i'd like to fix it.
[10:16] <mcq91> ok, thanks mjrclark
[10:16] <lufis> Shrimpy: ok, run sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg   that will reset it
[10:16] <Fryguy--> kelsin: yah rtorrent + screen seems like a reasonable solution, and it has plenty of support for remote automation via other means (monitors a directory for new torrents etc)
[10:16] <Iced_Kirby> Can you guys please help me?
[10:17] <ypSami> wolfey: I'm thinking of flashing my router with Linux to use iptables with it, instead of the dlink crap they put on it now
[10:17] <Rayko> can anyone help me i am having problems with my speakers and it's not a harware problem it's ubuntu related
[10:17] <Rayko> anyone please help me
[10:17] <kelsin> I use screen all the time, for irc and aim etc, thanks for brining that up, helped me out :)
[10:17] <Rayko> left speaker doesn't work
[10:17] <Rayko> and after rebooting
[10:17] <tonyyarusso> ypSami: I use DD-WRT on a Linksys WRT54GL.
[10:17] <Rayko> it gives an annoying beep
[10:17] <Iced_Kirby> Can you guys help me? Infra Recorder does not work for me. What else can I use to burn the ISO?
[10:17] <Shrimpy> lufis: it did nothing. when i type its  just a blank black screen
[10:17] <lufis> Shrimpy: ok, type "startx"

[10:18] <Iced_Kirby> I know how to burn the ISO
[10:18] <tonyyarusso> ypSami: Not sure about performance (Did it immediately after opening the box), but definitely more flexibility.
[10:18] <Shrimpy> lufis: nothing happes. it not really a command line. just a black screen werhe i can type stuff

[10:20] <Shrimpy> lufis: i know its very odd, but thats it!
[10:20] <gradin> jrib: i'm using 2.5 python
[10:20] <lufis> Shrimpy: try rebooting
[10:20] <czedlitz> is there a CL tool used for showing HD space left on a drive?
[10:20] <Iced_Kirby> I need a ISO burner for WINDOWS
[10:20] <jrib> gradin: as 'python'? why?
[10:21] <Shrimpy> lufis: i get the same screens
[10:21] <Alley^Away> Iced_Kirby: tried google?
[10:21] <lufis> Shrimpy: i dunno. that's strange

[10:21] <FrederickP2> !google free iso burner
[10:21] <Iced_Kirby> http://www.magiciso.com/tutorials/miso-burnwin.htm is this good?
[10:21] <Shrimpy> lufis: ok thanks anyways i'll just reinstall it. but do you think you could help me setup the screen later on today?
[10:21] <Iced_Kirby> !google free iso burner
[10:22] <FrederickP2> lol
[10:22] <ypSami> Nero has a free version you can use until you burn linux and uninstall that nasy windows infection.
[10:22] <dabide> need help (<- very new to linux/ubuntu): when i try to "sudo apt-get install cupsys" i get "Package cupsys is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[10:22] <dabide> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[10:22] <dabide> is only available from another source
[10:22] <dabide> E: Package cupsys has no installation candidate
[10:22] <vox754> czedlitz, try "df -lh"
[10:22] <dabide> sry
[10:22] <jrib> dabide: pastebin this file:  /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:22] <jrib> !pastebin | dabide
[10:22] <ubotu> dabide: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[10:22] <FrederickP2> /run http://www.google.com/search?q=free+iso+burner
[10:23] <dabide> jrib: i've uncommented all sources, so  i should be connectable to "universe"
[10:23] <jrib> dabide: it's not in universe
[10:23] <nblracer> jrib http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7534/
[10:24] <gradin> jrib: ah that would be why... i'm on fiesty...
[10:24] <czedlitz> vox754, sweet thanks
[10:24] <jrib> gradin: k, go over to #ubuntu+1 but  I just installed denyhosts and it went through fine on feisty
[10:25] <dabide> ok, how do i select multiple lines in nano? shift+arrow key doesnt do it
[10:25] <jrib> nblracer: what does this return:  ls -l /etc/init.d/samba
[10:26] <linxeh> dabide: I normally "cut" the lines with ctrl-k, then paste them back with ctrl-u (uncut)
[10:27] <dabide> thx
[10:27] <nblracer> jrib http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7537/
[10:27] <HolyGoat> Ergh. No Opera for 64 bits?
[10:28] <dabide> jrib http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7539/ , this is my sources.lis (ive copied it from a forum as mine didnt work with everything uncommented)
[10:28] <vox754> HolyGoat, use the 32-bit Ubuntu for desktop
[10:28] <jrib> nblracer: ok run this:  sudo ln -sf ../init.d/samba /etc/rc2.d/K09samba
[10:28] <HolyGoat> vox754: Will try, thanks.
[10:29] <linxeh> vox754: what if you need more than 8GB ram say ?
[10:30] <jrib> dabide: make yourself a decent one here, that one repeats stuff:
[10:30] <jrib> !easysource | dabide
[10:30] <HolyGoat> vox754: Won't install, apparently. "package architecture (i386) does not match system (amd64)"
[10:30] <ubotu> dabide: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[10:30] <linxeh> I guess you can install the 32bit subsystem on 64bit
[10:30] <vox754> linxeh, in that case I would turn into stone and wait for time to pass
[10:30] <linxeh> :)
[10:30] <HolyGoat> vox754: Oh, you meant Ubuntu for 32 bits.
[10:30] <trippen> since automatix is down im having a difficult time getting azureus to work on my 64bit edgy system it claims i do not have java installed please help me resolve this issue
[10:30] <nblracer> jrib Is any thing suppose to happen?
[10:30] <vox754> HolyGoat, use the 32-bit Ubuntu for desktop, amd64 is not recommended
[10:31] <robdeman> hey all... can I us emy Ipod (Shuffle) on my Linux box?
[10:31] <jrib> nblracer: nope, now try 'sudo apt-get install samba'
[10:31] <HolyGoat> Hm. I don't really feel like setting it up again just for Opera. But thanks.
[10:32] <gradin> jrib: ... then what did i break? :P
[10:33] <Iced_Kirby> Can you guys help me find a free windows ISO burner?
[10:33] <ALMimoni> iso recorder
[10:33] <nblracer> jrib thanks, while it dose its thing, can you explain what the issuie was and how you fixed it in
[10:33] <trippen> Iced_Kirby,  imgburner
[10:33] <linxeh> robdeman: yes; it appears as a mass storage device. and then you can use gtkpod etc to manage files (I assume it works on the shuffles)
[10:33] <trippen> since automatix is down im having a difficult time getting azureus to work on my 64bit edgy system it claims i do not have java installed please help me resolve this issue
[10:33] <Flannel> Iced_Kirby: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto  theres instructions there
[10:34] <FunnyLookinHat> trippen, did you try "sudo apt-get install sun-java5-bin"
[10:34] <Iced_Kirby> flanner:  Infre Recorder does NOT work for me
[10:34] <Spinnaker> #kone
[10:34] <Spinnaker> join #kone
[10:34] <vox754> Please help Iced_Kirby, she is a damsel in distress, trapped in an Canadian igloo who just wants to try Ubuntu once in her life. PLEASE.
[10:34] <Iced_Kirby> trippen: what is imgburner
[10:34] <trippen> FunnyLookinHat,  yes ive installed that one and sun-java6
[10:34] <jrib> nblracer: /etc/rc2.d/K09samba was a symlink to /samba.  it should have been to ../init.d/samba
[10:34] <trippen> Iced_Kirby,  its a free burner program for windows.. personally your in a linux chatroom so i would also say use k3b
[10:35] <upd> hi i have amd64 what is stable and faster for me ubuntu or ubuntu64??
[10:35] <linxeh> trippen: can you not install the java runtime from universe?
[10:35] <linxeh> or whever it is
[10:35] <Iced_Kirby> trippen: can I have a link to imgburner please?
[10:35] <nblracer> jrib can you look this over http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7542/ i get a warning at the end
[10:35] <trippen> linxeh,  i have .. but they arnt showing up
[10:35] <quaal> does anyone know how to add audio to a video
[10:35] <trippen> Iced_Kirby,  www.dogpile.com
[10:36] <linxeh> trippen: what happens if you run sudo update-alternatives --config java
[10:36] <dabide> jrib: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7541/ , my new sources.list but the error "E: Package cupsys has no installation candidate" still remains, after saving the sources.list i run "sudo apt-get update" and got many "101 Netowrk is unreachable" errors
[10:36] <linxeh> trippen: eg, does it show the JRE you installed ?
[10:36] <Iced_Kirby> trippen: Thank you so much
[10:36] <vox754> upd, ubuntu 32 bits is better supported. Use the 64-bit version only for servers and stuff.
[10:36] <upd> ok
[10:36] <trippen> linxeh,  when i ran that command it gave me 2 choices
[10:36] <HolyGoat> I read somewhere that the suggested way was sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-1.5.0-sun
[10:36] <jrib> dabide: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install cupsys
[10:37] <jrib> !info cupsys
[10:37] <ubotu> cupsys: Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - server. In component main, is optional. Version 1.2.4-2ubuntu3 (edgy), package size 1428 kB, installed size 6368 kB
[10:37] <linxeh> HolyGoat: most likely :)
[10:37] <jlamr> anyone recommend a p2p?
[10:37] <lufis> jlamr: nicotine+. google it
[10:37] <linxeh> jlamr: I hear that skype is quite good
[10:37] <trippen> linxeh,  i picked one and now it shows a version when i type java -version .. brb seeing if this works
[10:37] <jlamr> great thanks fellas
[10:37] <dabide> jrib: i run both commands, but the error remains
[10:38] <trippen> now azurues starts up shows the splash and then fails..
[10:38] <HolyGoat> Hm. I thought I could never get used to Gnome, coming from KDE. It took about 2 days.
[10:38] <linxeh> trippen: which did you choose ?
[10:38] <dabide> jrib: this is the whole msg i get after sudo apt-get install cupsys "Package cupsys is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source
[10:38] <dabide> E: Package cupsys has no installation candidate
[10:38] <linxeh> HolyGoat: I've done the opposite - switched to KDE from Gnome, just got fed up with how basic Gnome can be (although I hate how ugly KDE is)
[10:39] <trippen> here is my pastebie http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7544/
[10:39] <jrib> dabide: can you pastebin the output of 'sudo apt-get update' then?
[10:39] <HolyGoat> trippen: What does `java -version` give you?
[10:39] <trippen> HolyGoat,  check http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7544/
[10:39] <Alarm> hello. how can i see all the hds of my system ? not the mounted ones, but those who exist so that i will know which ones they are to be able to mount them
[10:39] <HolyGoat> linxeh: That's what I did like about Gnome, it's quite tidy.
[10:40] <vox754> Alarm, sudo fdisk -l
[10:40] <HolyGoat> trippen: It looks like you've also installed the Sun 6 JRE, is that correct?
[10:40] <trippen> Alarm,  in a term you can typpe sudo fdisk -l
[10:40] <trippen> HolyGoat,  yes
[10:40] <Alarm> damn i was missing sudo
[10:40] <HolyGoat> trippen: Do you need it?
[10:41] <trippen> HolyGoat,  i dont know.. do i ..
[10:41] <linxeh> trippen: I would download azureus from the web tbh - I've read lots about the ubuntu packages being massively broken because the maintainers wont apply the right patches
[10:41] <vox754> Alarm, shame on you! sudo is your daddy
[10:41] <HolyGoat> trippen: Probably not. Try editing /etc/jvm and remove the Java 6 VM, or just put it lower than the Sun 1.5 version.
[10:41] <Alarm> well didnt know that sudo was needed . fdisk -l was giving me though some feedback but not what i wanted
[10:41] <trippen> linxeh,  im sorry what.. normally id use automatix to install it but thats not an option at this time
[10:42] <trippen> HolyGoat,  how do i make it lower ?
[10:42] <HolyGoat> trippen: By moving it under the line pointing to 1.5
[10:42] <HolyGoat> trippen: It searches the list topdown when it looks for a jvm to use
[10:43] <dabide> jrib: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7548/ the output of sudo apt-get update after creating the new sources.list - this is not the whole output, as i dont get all on the screen, and cant paste everything to pastebin
[10:43] <robdeman> mm I just pluigged in my Ipod Shuffle and nothing happens
[10:43] <HolyGoat> It's my second day on Ubuntu after using Debian for a few years, so I might give wrong/ignorant advices, you're warned :)
[10:43] <nblracer> jrib am i safe to go now?
[10:43] <HolyGoat> robdeman: I hope that's not expected behaviour.
[10:43] <jrib> nblracer: does 'sudo apt-get install -f'  say everything is ok?
[10:44] <trippen> HolyGoat,  this is what the file you asked me to edit looks like http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7549/
[10:44] <HolyGoat> trippen: I've posted a correction
[10:45] <HolyGoat> /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun
[10:45] <HolyGoat> woops
[10:45] <nblracer> jrib thanks for your time, it all looks good
[10:45] <vox754> HolyGoat, so, is Debian great?
[10:45] <HolyGoat> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7550/
[10:45] <jrib> nblracer: great
[10:45] <HolyGoat> vox754: It's fine.
[10:45] <rkyraccoon55> can somebody help me access my music database?
[10:46] <jrib> dabide: edit your sources.list and remove all of "at." stuff
[10:46] <trippen> HolyGoat,  okay ..thats the change i made before you posted it.. lets see what this will do
[10:47] <HolyGoat> trippen: You can probably easily find out whether it works by just running `java -version`
[10:47] <HolyGoat> It should give you 1.5
[10:47] <rkyraccoon55> my music database is on another hd how can i access it?
[10:47] <jrib> dabide: you have internet access on the pc right?  Do you use a proxy?
[10:47] <vox754> HolyGoat, don't people say Debian is for leets and is never stable because it is improved constantly?
[10:48] <HolyGoat> vox754: Depends who you ask, I guess. Using it isn't much harder than using Ubuntu, I'd say (well judging from my 2-day experience with Ubuntu)
[10:48] <trippen> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7551/
[10:48] <trippen> HolyGoat,  sorry .. same issue http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7551/
[10:48] <dang`r`us> ello
[10:49] <Hasrat_USA> you been using ubuntu for two days? what distro were you using previously goat?
[10:49] <HolyGoat> trippen: Interesting. Let me have a closer look at that dump.
[10:49] <trippen> okay
[10:49] <HolyGoat> Hasrat_USA: debian, before that redhat, suse, caldera.. loooong ago
[10:49] <jhasse> Does someone know a good GNOME program for converting video files?
[10:50] <dang`r`us> it seems to me that libapache2-svn in dapper is broken ... a PROPFIND causes the apache child to segfault ... any workarounds?
[10:50] <dabide> jrib: yes internet connection is up, not using a proxy, but i'm going to re-check, brb in 5mins
[10:51] <nrune_> there is a script out there in the Ubuntu forums called video-convert. works pretty well
[10:51] <HolyGoat> trippen: I'll install azureus quickly to see if I can reproduce the error.
[10:51] <rkyraccoon55> can anyone tell me how to access my music which is on another hd
[10:51] <jrib> rkyraccoon55: mount the partition it is on
[10:52] <trippen> ok
[10:52] <erUSUL> ubotu tell rkyraccoon55 about ntfs | rkyraccoon55 see priv msg from ubotu
[10:52] <rkyraccoon55> !ntfs
[10:52] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[10:52] <Hasrat_USA> in 2001 i was encouraged to use Linux for the first time in my life when i read an article about it. went ahead, installed redhat, and experimented with so much that the poor quantam fireball 15 gb HDD crashed (did too much reformatting). then got fed up and realized linux wasn't for dumbs like me. kept on using M$ for like 6 years and on 2007 found Ubuntu.
[10:53] <acid_phyre> that sucks u gotta register nick now
[10:53] <HolyGoat> trippen: Hm.. works fine here. It looks like there's something wrong with its Gtk dependencies.
[10:53] <HolyGoat> I'm going to search around for a bit.
[10:53] <trippen> ok
[10:53] <HolyGoat> trippen: Try this: sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-pixbuf
[10:53] <HolyGoat> Then try running azureus again.
[10:54] <vox754> Hasrat_USA, great story.
[10:54] <scienceboy> i've got a problem when installing java. i followed instructions, but then i got this
[10:54] <scienceboy> http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q302/DWRP/helpme.png
[10:54] <merc> im trying to figure out what driver my wireless card is using, in lsmod there's quite a few wireless drivers i recognize (hermes, orinoco, hostap..), is there a way to find out which one is actually being used?
[10:55] <scienceboy> and i don't know what to do
[10:55] <trippen> got a differnt error this time.. looks like an improvment tho
[10:55] <HolyGoat> Hasrat_USA: I'm glad there was a happy end to your story.
[10:55] <HolyGoat> trippen: Could you put the error on the pastebin?
[10:55] <chelle_1> General question. how can I share my internet connection with my boyfriends PC? I got one nic (eth0) he's plugged into and I use a wireless connection on my desktop (eth1)?
[10:55] <w0pr> hi there :)
[10:55] <OuZo_> hi, i have this message from dmesg >>> [17179571.716000]  ide: Assuming 33MHz system bus speed for PIO modes; override with idebus=xx <<< i am sure my bus speed is higher than that?
[10:56] <Hasrat_USA> I'm now using Linux for 100 percent of my time. i have almost replaced windows with linux at this point and am confident and able enough to do anything and everything in linux without resorting on windows. the only problem that i'm dealing with right now is that my mic doesn't work at all. apart from that, i got my nvidia geforce 7300 LE working at full speed, internet working, PC performance ultra-awesome, everything's working. no
[10:56] <Hasrat_USA> need to switch to closed source winblows crap
[10:56] <acid_phyre> how can u get .rar support to extract torrents?
[10:56] <trippen> HolyGoat,  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7552/
[10:56] <jrib> !rar | acid_phyre
[10:56] <ubotu> acid_phyre: 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
[10:56] <Hasrat_USA> *resorting to
[10:56] <vox754> chelle_1, don't say the b word, we get jealous. I've read info on the forums, I'm sure you can browse it.
[10:56] <HolyGoat> scienceboy: Hehe. Press tab, then press enter. You're probably better off installing java from apt though.
[10:56] <leopartux> how can i activate auto login
[10:57] <scienceboy> oh ...
[10:57] <scienceboy> holygoat: thanks!
[10:57] <leopartux> i think that there is a kdmrc file
[10:57] <HolyGoat> scienceboy: welcome
[10:57] <leopartux> but i dont know where it is
[10:57] <Enselic``> I can't believe it, is there no function that returns the buffer of the "other" window when one has split a window vertically in Emacs?
[10:57] <chelle_1> vox754: ok, I'll hunt
[10:57] <HolyGoat> trippen: Wow. That application has some strange dependencies, it seems.
[10:57] <w0pr> hello :) at the end of nvidia driver installation, i read: ERROR: Unable to load the kernel module 'nvidia.ko'. What can i do? My screen work @ 640x480 sig sigh!!
[10:57] <HolyGoat> trippen: I'll dig into that a bit more.
[10:57] <trippen> HolyGoat,  so how do i get them all
[10:57] <phaidros> which tool to convert wav 2 mp3 in edgy?
[10:57] <merc> Hasrat_USA: you sure the microphone line isnt muted or something silly?
[10:58] <Enselic``> phaidros: Audacity
[10:58] <foutrelis> :)
[10:58] <phaidros> Enselic``, not for 1.2 gig wav file ;)
[10:58] <Hasrat_USA> yeah there was a happy end of the story. but now i feel like the story has just started. what am i supposed to do by simply installing a distro and running it 24/7? i want to take it to the next level. wanna be a linux network administrator, or anything. it's too boring to just be a linux user and do nothing. giving something to the community is important
[10:58] <Enselic``> phaidros: ffmpeg or mencoder
[10:58] <leopartux> an which program do you use for irc
[10:58] <leopartux> and*
[10:58] <Enselic``> leopartux: XChat2
[10:59] <acid_phyre> lol its non free but apt-get can get it
[10:59] <phaidros> Enselic``, mencoder -of help not helping. doesnt make plain mp3 ..
[10:59] <phaidros> ffmpeg might help
[10:59] <Enselic``> phaidros: yeah it does
[10:59] <Hasrat_USA> merc nah i'm not sure. i will fix it up anyways. i don't like to take help from people that much. i love to solve my problems as well as that of others. when i solve my own problems, i learn a great deal
[10:59] <Hasrat_USA> but merc thank you very much for caring :)
[10:59] <rkyraccoon55> where can i get media decoders?
[10:59] <phaidros> Enselic``, which -o option?
[11:00] <robdeman> folks my device manager shows the Ipod Shuffle but it does not mount /mnt/ipod or something like that
[11:00] <HolyGoat> trippen: It looks like the packages for azureus don't get all the dependencies maybe. What you could try first: `sudo apt-get --purge remove azureus`, and then `sudo apt-get install azureus`
[11:00] <HolyGoat> trippen: Since it uses the Sun java version now, I'd say it'd get the correct dependencies. Not sure though, try it.
[11:00] <Hasrat_USA> yeah go reinstall azeraus :P
[11:00] <leopartux> for auto login which file i edit?
[11:00] <ryanakca> how do I play DVDs on feisty?
[11:00] <Hasrat_USA> lol
[11:00] <jrib> ryanakca: #ubuntu+1
[11:00] <andreseso> I downloaded my azureus from sourceforge
[11:01] <TylerIsGreen23> i have an intel pro wireless 3945 card but ubuntu recognizes it as IPW 2200. I am trying to set my card to monitor mode so I can use Kismet but i can't find any instructions for doing that on an ipw 3945. i did however find instructions on how to do it with an IPW 2200. My question is will it make my wireless card stop working to install the incorect drivers even though ubuntu already sees it as the incorrect card
[11:01] <zyth> HolyGoat, or you could use automatix, though everyone in the channel will whine about that solution lol
[11:01] <acid_phyre> can u play .vob dvds and .iso and if u can could someone plez tell me how
[11:01] <HolyGoat> Hasrat_USA: For me the usual path to learn something is just to do it. In the case of system administration, set up a few linux boxes in a network, see how far you can automate things, see if you can break things so you have to fix them, etc.
[11:01] <trippen> nope same error after reinstall
[11:01] <vox754> Hasrat_USA, I think the first step to take it to the next level is simply to buy a book about programming in Unix or something like that. Everything I know I have learnt it from these electronic volatile information, but something to hold on to it would be nice. Ahem, donating money helps also.
[11:01] <HolyGoat> zyth: Ah, I don't know automatix yet. It's my second day on Ubuntu :)
[11:01] <Hasrat_USA> if i could work in Canonical, i would have made it mandatory for programmers to make a little software that would come up after every single Ubuntu installation and say "at first read the manuals before asking for HELP"
[11:02] <scienceboy> another quick question - how to i run .jar files? i tried it once, but i forgot the commands
[11:02] <scienceboy> command
[11:02] <leopartux> or is there an auto login configuration gui
[11:02] <acid_phyre> can someone telll me how to play .vob and .iso dvds?
[11:02] <zyth> HolyGoat, depending who you ask its either a godsend or the devil.  On irc its the devil, on ubuntuforums its a godsend
[11:02] <phaidros> acid_phyre, vlc
[11:02] <zyth> HolyGoat, as in all things, make your mind up for yourself and dont listen to other people
[11:02] <RFC_1149> scienceboy, man java
[11:02] <TylerIsGreen23> i have an intel pro wireless 3945 card but ubuntu recognizes it as IPW 2200. I am trying to set my card to monitor mode so I can use Kismet but i can't find any instructions for doing that on an ipw 3945. i did however find instructions on how to do it with an IPW 2200. My question is will it make my wireless card stop working to install the incorect drivers even though ubuntu already sees it as the incorrect card
[11:02] <acid_phyre> but iso is a image u can still open it with vlc?
[11:02] <HolyGoat> zyth: After a few years of Debian, I got used to using apt, I guess I'll use that for now.
[11:02] <phaidros> acid_phyre, if not, mount it ..
[11:03] <scienceboy> RFC: what?
[11:03] <acid_phyre> thats something i would not know how to do on unix i just started
[11:03] <vinboy> hi
[11:03] <erUSUL> ubotu tell TylerIsGreen23 about repeat | TylerIsGreen23 see priv msg from ubotu
[11:03] <HolyGoat> trippen: I'll look at it some more.
[11:03] <Hasrat_USA> 2nd day on ubuntu? here is an advice. whatever you do, don't install/run easyubuntu or automatrix. good luck :)
[11:03] <acid_phyre> i use alcohol 120 on windows
[11:03] <acid_phyre> how do u mount on unix?
[11:03] <trippen> thanks
[11:03] <vinboy> how do I install the java-gnome binding?
[11:03] <youser> what can i use to play streaming videos in galeon browser?
[11:03] <zyth> HolyGoat, see, Hasrat_USA proves my point exactly
[11:03] <zyth> lol
[11:03] <jkorkean> what is the default directory for gcc libraries?
[11:03] <HolyGoat> zyth/Hasrat_USA: hehe
[11:03] <erUSUL> TylerIsGreen23: http://ipw3945.sourceforge.net/
[11:04] <bruenig> jkorkean, /usr/lib
[11:04] <jkorkean> thanks
[11:04] <youser> as far as i know mplayer plugin cant be installed for galeon im looking for an alternative
[11:05] <TylerIsGreen23> i am running a multi processor system but ubuntu only recognizes one processor. I know it has something to do with rebuilding the kernal but i don't even know about the kernal let alone how to rebuild it
[11:05] <HolyGoat> trippen: I'm just reading that the azureus version in apt for edgy is broken. You're probably better off using Azureus straight from their website (don't worry, it's not hard)
[11:06] <HolyGoat> trippen: Typically with Java applications, you download a jar file, which you just execute with `java -jar foo.jar`
[11:06] <wolfey> TylerIsGreen23: apt-get install linux-686-smp  ?
[11:06] <erUSUL> TylerIsGreen23: the ubuntu kernel supports smp you don't need to compile it for that... can you paste the output of 'cat /proc/cpuinfo' in a pastebin?
[11:06] <Hagane> my wifi works great with any unsecured network around me and connects easily... but it wont work with my secure router..
[11:06] <Hagane> it connects to the router perfect.. the router logs shows the connection too but no packets/data is being sent
[11:07] <youser> anyone know how to watch no flash  stream videos in galeon
[11:07] <youser> non*
[11:07] <vox754> Hagane, that is a common problem. Don't know, some devices just work unprotected but not with keys.
[11:07] <stratusfear> anyone can tell me how to configure iptables for amule?
[11:08] <stratusfear> anyone can tell me how to make amule faster?
[11:08] <TylerIsGreen23> i am not currently in my ubuntu partition because i use a 56k modem in the location i am now and i still haven't gotten that to work either haha. but i can return with the results of that
[11:08] <trippen> HolyGoat,  im lost
[11:08] <trippen> should i purge the azureus now and download and install it from the site
[11:08] <Hagane> vox754, damn...  is there anything workaround other than unsecuring my network?
[11:08] <HolyGoat> trippen: I'll walk you through it.
[11:09] <HolyGoat> trippen: First, `apt-get --purge remove azureus`
[11:09] <Tibmol> how can i install divx codex for totem ?
[11:09] <stratusfear> anyone can tell me how to make amule faster?
[11:09] <vox754> Hagane, I've read it a lot, and can't help you further. What is your card?
[11:09] <Tibmol> !anyone
[11:09] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[11:09] <decoy5657> Anyone have a guide for moving an ubuntu installation to new hardware?
[11:09] <piranesi> hi, I don't know why after the jdk1-6 installation (from the sun .bin file) I have in my /usr/bin dir the file javac but not the file java... is it normal?
[11:09] <HolyGoat> trippen: Then, go here: http://azureus.sourceforge.net/download.php
[11:09] <Iced_Kirby> Is there support on ubuntu for wireless bluetooth keyboards and mouses?
[11:10] <wolfey> piranesi: probably it couldnt overwrite symbolic link to gcj java
[11:10] <trippen> Azureus_2.5.0.4_linux-x86_64.tar.bz2 is the file i just downlaoded
[11:10] <Hagane> vox754 Intel PRO/Wireless 2915ABG
[11:10] <jussi01> morning
[11:10] <youser> is there nothing i can do to stream videos in galeon?
[11:10] <piranesi> wolfey, what's gcj java?
[11:10] <pianoboy3333> Anyone here ever try mtpfs?
[11:11] <stratusfear> anyone can tell me how to forward amule?
[11:11] <zyth> klaatu verata niktu!
[11:11] <Iced_Kirby> >	Is there support on ubuntu for wireless bluetooth keyboards and mouses? When I run ubuntu (through CD) with them they do not work. Please help a damsel in distress!
[11:11] <Hasrat_USA> piranesi: i believe that's the open source (free) java, not the one made by sun
[11:11] <HolyGoat> trippen: Splendid. Go to the location where you downloaded it, type `tar -xjvf Azureus_2.5.0.4_linux-x86_64.tar.bz2`
[11:11] <genii> zyth Heh :) "Day the Earth Stood Still"
[11:11] <zyth> Iced_Kirby, probably, but odds are you'll need a wired board for the install.
[11:11] <zyth> genii, I was more thinking "Army of Darkness"
[11:11] <stratusfear> anyone know how to make amule faster
[11:11] <stratusfear> ?
[11:11] <stratusfear> anyone know how to make amule faster?
[11:12] <Iced_Kirby> zyth: Thanks
[11:12] <piranesi> Hasrat_USA, I don't think, if I execute javac -version the output is sun java 1.6
[11:12] <zyth> stratusfear, kick it in the bum?
[11:12] <trippen> HolyGoat,  yea ive already extracted it.. there was a folder inside..
[11:12] <youser> am i wasting my time?
[11:12] <Hasrat_USA> where are the channel operators?
[11:12] <Iced_Kirby> zyth: But when I install ubuntu will the wireless work?
[11:12] <trippen> HolyGoat,  do i put the folder in my home folder or where should i put it
[11:12] <HolyGoat> trippen: Aha ok, are there .jar files in the folder?
[11:12] <zyth> Iced_Kirby, just google "bluetooth+keyboard+linux" guarantee you'll find the info
[11:12] <zyth> Iced_Kirby, you'll probably have to set it up, but it should
[11:12] <trippen> HolyGoat,  yes 2 of them
[11:12] <lisandro> hi
[11:12] <trance> hey, anyone know a a little howto for get a bootsplash?
[11:12] <stratusfear> zyth i'm not sure i have to do some stuff in iptables but i don
[11:12] <Iced_Kirby> zyth: Thanks
[11:13] <HolyGoat> trippen: Depends what you want. You probably want to put it in your home directory, yes. Personally, I create a directory called "bin" in my home directory, and put programs that are only for me in there.
[11:13] <lisandro> I need help to upgrade my ubuntu
[11:13] <stratusfear> zyth i don't know how
[11:13] <HolyGoat> trippen: What are they called?
[11:13] <piranesi> wolfey, what's gcj java?
[11:13] <lisandro> someone to help me.,?
[11:13] <trippen> HolyGoat,  azurues.jar and swt.jar
[11:13] <AMD-> welcome back all
[11:13] <kittyhawk> does anyone know the right way to get the /lib/modules/2.6.17-11-386/build tree installed?
[11:13] <zyth> stratusfear, oh, I was referring to a quadruped pack animal.
[11:13] <sano[dot] lcs> anyone have a good handle on LVM ?
[11:13] <trippen> HolyGoat,  okay ill make the bin directory .. brb
[11:13] <HolyGoat> trippen: Great, azureus.jar is the one we'll work with. Can you start up a terminal?
[11:13] <soho> what was this i was in ubuntu-unregged
[11:13] <soho> ?
[11:13] <kittyhawk> they don't appear to be part of the linux-headers-2.6.17-11 package
[11:14] <soho> it told me i have to register to join ubuntu-channel
[11:14] <wolfey> piranesi: that's GNU version of java, incompatible with sun java, more or less
[11:14] <soho> but now i am in without registering
[11:14] <trippen> im in a term.. do i move the azurues folder into the bin directory or is that folder used to do an install
[11:14] <kittyhawk> I'm trying to build some drivers, but it fails on that step
[11:14] <sano[dot] lcs> Does anyone have a good handle on LVM - trying to do something quite dynamic with it if I can get some help with the subject
[11:14] <HolyGoat> trippen: You can move the azureus directory into the bin directory, yes.
[11:14] <erUSUL> kittyhawk: 'sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)'
[11:14] <piranesi> wolfey, I have in update-alternatives the newer java 1.6 selected so there shouldn't be conflicts, right?
[11:15] <dcordes> is there something similar to gnome cpu freq applet in fluxbox?
[11:15] <bimberi> soho: there was a channel mode change.  When there are issues with spammers they set it to only allow joins for registered users
[11:15] <kittyhawk> erUSUL: I did that already
[11:15] <kittyhawk> it added the build folder, but it's empty
[11:15] <trippen> okay done
[11:15] <AMD-> can any one please help me i cant install any thing any more http://pastebin.ca/372208
[11:15] <jhasse> Is there any gtk program to convert video files?
[11:15] <HolyGoat> trippen: FYI, putting a "bin" directory in your homedir doesn't actually do anything, it's just a convention some older unix guys at work taught me.
[11:15] <erUSUL> kittyhawk: it should have worked... there is no other way afaik
[11:15] <HolyGoat> trippen: now enter that directory, and type `java -jar azureus.jar`
[11:15] <trippen> HolyGoat,  thats okay .. i need to find a way to get orginized.. im still anewb
[11:16] <sano[dot] lcs> could someone help me with a few LVM questions?
[11:16] <soho> bimberi; OK
[11:16] <genii> Anyone use the FAI system before? If so how much does it differ from say a pxe install with preseed
[11:16] <lisandro> ANYONE CAN HELP ME TO UPDATE UBUNTU?
[11:16] <erUSUL> !caps > lisandro
[11:16] <sano[dot] lcs> sudo apt-get update
[11:16] <lisandro> I know, but nobody answera me
[11:16] <chamberlain> hello
[11:16] <trippen> HolyGoat,  Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/log4j/Layout
[11:17] <NkZ> Greetings
[11:17] <sano[dot] lcs> lisandro: sudo apt-get update
[11:17] <MadMatt> does anyone know how to automount a samba share?
[11:17] <lisandro> no, because
[11:17] <chamberlain> check out http://ubuntuguide.org
[11:17] <lisandro> listen, i have
[11:17] <lisandro> ubuntu 5.04
[11:17] <chamberlain> i think automounting samba is on there
[11:17] <lisandro> a very old version
[11:17] <HolyGoat> trippen: Hm. That'd be odd. One sec, I'll look at how Azureus works for a bit.
[11:17] <NkZ> I just modified my "boot" line to add noacpi on the startup, I was wondering if this has any negative side effects on my PC
[11:17] <dumbintel> say I want to run something everytime I get online, like a vpn. How can I automate this?
[11:17] <lisandro> I downloaded the new version 6.10 from inet
[11:17] <lisandro> how can I update it from the cd
[11:18] <HolyGoat> trippen: I'm familiar with Java programming, that's how I reason from the outside without actually doing what you just did.
[11:18] <benjamin_> MadMatt: if u use gnome, then it automounts already
[11:18] <HolyGoat> I'll look in the source.
[11:18] <MadMatt> I'm using KDE
[11:18] <sano[dot] lcs> lisandro: you weren't that specific before - I'd format / reinstall =)
[11:18] <HolyGoat> trippen: Ah, there's a startup script.
[11:18] <chamberlain> you should add the cd to your apt sources and then update it
[11:18] <vox754> Hagane, I cannot answer your private messages. I don't think it is a router problem, but you can try it anyway. If it works in Windows then it is a driver Linux problem.
[11:18] <MadMatt> I can see it but I have to mount it as root benjamin_
[11:18] <chamberlain> (lisandro)
[11:18] <lisandro> you mean that is easiest to erase and start over again?
[11:18] <sano[dot] lcs> Announce: Anyone able to assist me with a few LVM questions?
[11:18] <kittyhawk> erUSUL: this feels like windows.  I removed the package and reinstalled, and it worked.
[11:18] <trippen>  HolyGoat  i was just reading the readme file.. and yes there is
[11:18] <benjamin_> llisandro: to update from 5.04, you have to get every version after that
[11:19] <kittyhawk> thanks for your help
[11:19] <bimberi> lisandro: you can't.  You either backup and reinstall or upgrade 5.04 -> 5.10 -> 6.06 -> 6.10
[11:19] <benjamin_> MadMatt: you shouldnt
[11:19] <lisandro> ahh ok
[11:19] <HolyGoat> trippen: While still in the azureus directory, do this: `chmod +x azureus`, then do `./azureus`
[11:19] <lisandro> thanks
[11:19] <sano[dot] lcs> bimberi: wow, that would suck
[11:19] <chamberlain> oh didnt see 5.04
[11:19] <erUSUL> kittyhawk: no problem
[11:19] <HolyGoat> That'll probably do the trick.
[11:19] <trippen> HolyGoat,  it fired right up.. how do i make a link and
[11:19] <lisandro> and how do I erase my ubuntu, to reinstall?
[11:19] <bimberi> sano[dot] lcs: indeed :)
[11:19] <sano[dot] lcs> Announce: Anyone able to assist me with a few LVM questions?
[11:19] <trippen> HolyGoat,  i didnt do the chmod stuff it fired up anyway
[11:19] <chamberlain> and lisandro, wouldn't it make sense to backup and install from scratch?
[11:19] <HolyGoat> trippen: You mean a link on your desktop?
[11:19] <hivemind> topic
[11:19] <hivemind> er
[11:19] <HolyGoat> trippen: Ah ok, then the default permissions were correct.
[11:19] <NkZ> I just modified my "boot" line to add noacpi on the startup, I was wondering if this has any negative side effects on my PC
[11:19] <benjamin_> MadMatt: unless it is something you actually need to do, but i cant see why
[11:19] <sano[dot] lcs> Announce: Anyone able to assist me with a few LVM questions? (ubuntu server 6.06lts)
[11:20] <lisandro> yes, actually i have nothing to backup
[11:20] <lisandro> so, it's not a problem
[11:20] <chamberlain> lol nicr
[11:20] <MadMatt> I shouldn't what benjamin_
[11:20] <trippen> HolyGoat,  no in the menu.. my drop down menu
[11:20] <sano[dot] lcs> lisandro: don't complicate things, just format/reinstall
[11:20] <chamberlain> that makes it a lot easier
[11:20] <lisandro> but, does anyopne can help me to erase this ubuntu to install the new one
[11:20] <Hagane> vox754 well i guess ill have to switch back to xp or find another distro... this is my first time using linux
[11:20] <Hagane> vox754 thanks for all your help
[11:20] <chamberlain> you should just boot from the cd and run the installer
[11:20] <chamberlain> to lisandro
[11:20] <benjamin_> MadMatt: i mean if you mount your share as root, then only root will be able to access it, i think.
[11:20] <HolyGoat> trippen: It might surprise you that I don't know that. I really don't know anything about Gnome, or about Ubuntu configuration. It's my second day on Ubuntu.
[11:20] <sano[dot] lcs> !!! Anyone able to assist me with a few LVM questions? (ubuntu server 6.06lts) !!!!
[11:21] <bimberi> lisandro: you can tell the installer to erase the partition (or the whole disk) during the install
[11:21] <vox754> Hagane, you don't give up. Those Intel cards are well supported.
[11:21] <MadMatt> I don't think I can mount it as a user though benjamin_
[11:21] <HolyGoat> trippen: But I'm sure that if you click around a little bit, you can create a menu item that points to your azureus installation.
[11:21] <trippen> HolyGoat,  okay .. well thank you for getting it up and running i can start it by hand for now i guess
[11:21] <MadMatt> do I have to do something special to fstab?
[11:21] <HolyGoat> trippen: It really shouldn't be hard to get it into the menu.
[11:21] <benjamin_> MadMatt, and most samba shares need distant login and password.
[11:21] <lisandro> chamberlain you mean that I put the cd and run the install  without uninstalling this old version?
[11:21] <vox754> Hagane, look here http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/List
[11:21] <chamberlain> no i thought you were running 6.06
[11:22] <MadMatt> I can get on it though the network but I need to mount it if I want to stream music
[11:22] <TylerIsGreen23> when i attempt to configure my 56k modem connection in ubuntu, it does not autodetect my modem any suggestions?
[11:22] <NkZ> I was having issues with my Ubuntu having random hang-ons / reboots. I was told to modify my boot in order to remove acpi loadup or something like that, so I did, I was wondering if that has any negative side effects on my PC?
[11:22] <MadMatt> but I don't want to have to mount it everytime to do that
[11:22] <chamberlain> i really would reccomend installing from the livecd from scratch
[11:22] <trippen> yep HolyGoat  im sure i can find out how do to that it shouldnt be hard at all
[11:22] <vox754> Hagane, and here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=361041
[11:22] <bimberi> !modem | TylerIsGreen23
[11:22] <ubotu> TylerIsGreen23: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto
[11:22] <benjamin_> MadMatt: you can mount it as any user. If you cant, there must be a group called "shares" or "samba" you have to make sure your user belongs to such a group.
[11:22] <kirayatail> good evening from sweden =) is it ok to just ask a question right out, or is there a queue system?
[11:22] <lisandro> ok, and how do I format?
[11:22] <sano[dot] lcs> LVM help anyone??? at all???
[11:22] <chamberlain> just run the installer
[11:22] <bimberi> kirayatail: just ask away :)
[11:22] <HolyGoat> trippen: Oh, just right-click on your panel, then choose 'add to panel', then choose 'application launcher', from where you can add it
[11:22] <MadMatt> where do I find that benjamin_?
[11:22] <chamberlain> it will ask you if you want to erase the entire disk, and i assume you would want to do that
[11:22] <Hagane> vox754, ndiswrapper doesnt work... i think the drivers may be too new.. cant find older drivers
[11:22] <trippen> okay thanks
[11:23] <Hagane> vox754 is there another way to install the drivers?
[11:23] <lisandro> ok
[11:23] <lisandro> I'll try, if not, I'll be back
[11:23] <lisandro> jeje
[11:23] <benjamin_> MadMatt: i am not using gnome right now, but there is something about that in menu "places"

[11:23] <MadMatt> what are you using benjamin_?
[11:23] <HolyGoat> I've learned a lot about Ubuntu in the last few days. When I do things, a lot of things go wrong, so I have to fix them. A curse for me, a blessing for some others.
[11:23] <vox754> Hagane, there is "linuxant"  ...comercial... money ...
[11:23] <benjamin_> MadMatt: something like network share or folder

[11:25] <zambaroo> hi guys, how does ubuntu know whether it is edgy or dapper or whatever/
[11:25] <kitche> NkZ: your system might not power down on it's own
[11:26] <vox754> zambaroo, he knows, he is very smart
[11:26] <chamberlain> http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[11:26] <HolyGoat> The one thing I really liked about Ubuntu was the moment where I installed Ubuntu yesterday. I was able to listen to music from an USB drive while the installer was working. A few hours before that, I was stuck with Vista (computer store didn't have OEM systems without Vista, imagine that). That put a smile back on my face.
[11:26] <zambaroo> i just need to know which file contains this information
[11:26] <cables> HolyGoat, the ability to do stuff during the instal is really cool.
[11:26] <sano[dot] lcs> chamberlain: i'm not sure LVM is my solution because at shutdown the ramdisks go away, and LVM starts pretty high up on RC2.D
[11:26] <Hagane> vox754 looks nice.. ill try the demo, thanks!!
[11:26] <HolyGoat> cables: Yeah, certainly had a 'wow' effect.
[11:27] <chamberlain> i dont really have much experience doing what you want to do, so im just passing on the links
[11:27] <NkZ> Kitche: I was wondering, any other way to cast out my random reboots besides disabling noacpi? All my issues came after I made a major upgrade (YEs, already tried apt-update / upgrade nothing new available)
[11:27] <mby> Hi guys, Can You help me to solve that problem ? It looks like some common deal.
[11:27] <mby> No package 'glib-2.0' found
[11:27] <mby> Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
[11:27] <mby> installed software in a non-standard prefix.
[11:27] <vox754> Hagane, alright. But I suggest you should donate to ndiswrapper.
[11:27] <chamberlain> what are you trying to install, mby?
[11:27] <bimberi> kirayatail: that really depends on whether there are linux drivers for your reader available.  You should try googling for the model of your reader along with 'ubuntu' (or 'linux').
[11:27] <sano[dot] lcs> chamberlain: thank you.. wish someone was doing what I'm trying to do
[11:27] <benjamin_> NkZ: yeah if you disable ACPI, you can still use APM (or whatever it is called... cant rmember), so your comp will still powerdown by itself, etc ...
[11:27] <cables> mby, what are you trying to do? What gives you that error?
[11:27] <hak0> !floppies
[11:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about floppies - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:27] <chamberlain> sorry sano!
[11:27] <cables> Does anyone know if Eye Of Gnome is going to get better SVG support?
[11:27] <hak0> !bootdisk
[11:27] <chamberlain> no idea, cables
[11:27] <sano[dot] lcs> chamberlain: haven't meet anyone who uses ramdisks, anyone else here utilize ramdisks?
[11:27] <kirayatail> I have a PCMCIA Compact Flash reader and some memory cards, I just started using Ubuntu, and I wonder how to mount the memory card? I can see it in the device list, but there is nothing in either /media or /mnt
[11:27] <mby> cables:i'm runnin ./configure
[11:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bootdisk - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:28] <vox754> zambaroo, "cat /etc/issue"
[11:28] <nrune_> Anyone have problems with mplayer firefox plugin creating mutilple processes of mplayer in the background?
[11:28] <sano[dot] lcs> !ramdisk
[11:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ramdisk - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:28] <cables> mby, you'll need to install the package it's asking for.
[11:28] <stratusfear> anyone know how to make amule faster?
[11:28] <hak0> !network instalation
[11:28] <sano[dot] lcs> stratusfear: beat it
[11:28] <mby> I have it already installed :/
[11:28] <vox754> sano[dot] lcs, what exactly is a "ramdisk"?
[11:28] <zambaroo> vox754, ty, should have thought of that myself
[11:28] <stratusfear> sano how?
[11:28] <ALMimoni> i want screen video capture program.
[11:28] <sano[dot] lcs> vox754: its a logical disk made out of the space in your RAM
[11:28] <wolfey> stratusfear: to make certain downloads faster you need to set upload priority to maximum
[11:29] <wolfey> stratusfear: you get awarded for uploading
[11:29] <Hagane> vox754 done
[11:29] <bimberi> ALMimoni: istanbul is one
[11:29] <benjamin_> stratusfear: use a carrot
[11:29] <vox754> sano[dot] lcs, yes, but as far as installing something why would you use it?
[11:29] <sano[dot] lcs> vox754: faster access for hi-disk read applications
[11:29] <NkZ> Kitche: Wanna know something funny? I was waiting for your answer and the system just rebooted alone.
[11:30] <vox754> Hagane, how much? tell me so I can take credit for it.
[11:30] <hak0> hi all, does anyone knows how to install ubuntu from floppies ? my machine doenst boot from cdrom
[11:30] <kirayatail> Just a quick question: how do I mount volumes like memory cards the easiest way?
[11:30] <sano[dot] lcs> vox754: the application i run on the ramdisk is very tasking on the HD, so I just put it in a ramdisk
[11:30] <blackes1> kirayatail try this clickon your top panel and add to panel and select diskmounter and remove and insert your card again
[11:30] <chamberlain> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto
[11:30] <leopartux> i found at last   for auto login edit this file /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf
[11:30] <benjamin_> NkZ: it could be a ram problem. i suggest you check deeply your ram with the nice tool we all know well :)
[11:30] <DinkyDogg> Hi. This is gonna sound stupid, but I have Totem installed, as well as some libraries to play DVDs. But how do I actually run Totem to play a DVD?
[11:30] <bimberi> !install | hak0
[11:30] <chamberlain> to hak0
[11:30] <ubotu> hak0: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues
[11:30] <sano[dot] lcs> vox754: but I need about three to hold all the data, which is why I wanted to LVM it, much simplier than the script i'm using
[11:30] <NkZ> Kitche: So I guess noacpi Didn't do the magic. I will shut down the PC and open it up, check the plugs and so on, and then I will try to get back

[11:31] <versable> f
[11:31] <stratusfear> wolfey ok i'll try it
[11:31] <kitche> NkZ: you can use the old kernel if you wish

[11:31] <gfuchs> a.net
[11:31] <vox754> sano[dot] lcs, that IS the job of RAM... so you have like what 8 GB RAM?
[11:31] <DinkyDogg> Hi. This is gonna sound stupid, but I have Totem installed, as well as some libraries to play DVDs. But how do I actually run Totem to play a DVD?
[11:31] <NkZ> Kitche: So by the process of discard, I think it might be a physical Issue.
[11:31] <vox754> Hagane, nop, no developer. You can talk to them on #ndiswrapper
[11:31] <benjamin_> nKz: memtest takes something like 3 days ... u sure u did it ?
[11:31] <TTT_Travis> I connected another drive with partitions on it, how can I mount the partitions?
[11:31] <chamberlain> just pop in the dvd, dinkydogg
[11:31] <sano[dot] lcs> vox754 I have 4gb, I use 512 for the system, and as close to the remaining 3.5gb for the application
[11:31] <NkZ> Kitche: You think it might be a kernel Issue
[11:31] <Hagane> $5 dollars
[11:32] <chamberlain> it should run totem automatically
[11:32] <cables> DinkyDogg, Movie menu>Play Disc
[11:32] <ALMimoni> bimberi: thanks
[11:32] <sano[dot] lcs> vox754: and i know the job of ram, it just doesn't load enough
[11:32] <kitche> NkZ: can be but if it still does it then it's something else
[11:32] <Hagane> vox754 $5 dollars
[11:32] <DinkyDogg> cables: where's the movie menu?
[11:32] <chamberlain> in totem
[11:32] <cables> DinkyDogg, in Totem
[11:32] <bimberi> ALMimoni: yw
[11:32] <x1alpha> what is the directory to the root of aphace2  server ? it doesnt seem to be usr/local/apache/htdocs as default
[11:32] <sano[dot] lcs> vox754: which is why I force more into the memory
[11:32] <DinkyDogg> cables: how do I run totem?
[11:32] <x1alpha> ?
[11:32] <NkZ> Benjamin: It was "faster" for me, I will be sincere I just ran it to 76+%
[11:32] <vox754> Hagane, DAMN you!
[11:32] <chamberlain> what do you want to do, x1alpha?
[11:32] <rkyraccoon55> !ntfs
[11:32] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[11:32] <benjamin_> NkZ: could be... try to compile your vanilla kernel, or use a debian kernel. ubuntu kernels are way too much patched for my taste.
[11:32] <cables> DinkyDogg, Applications>Sound and Video>Movie Player
[11:32] <Hagane> vox754 what?
[11:32] <vox754> sano[dot] lcs, very interesting indeed.
[11:32] <DinkyDogg> cables: Thanks!
[11:33] <vox754> Hagane, I had promised them 2 million, but said I would donate 100.
[11:33] <sano[dot] lcs> vox754, but I feel that LVMs of RAMDISKS won't work, because I can't create the boot disk before the LVManager kicks in
[11:33] <kitche> benjamin_: they are patched just liek debians :)
[11:33] <NkZ> Benjamin_: Dunno dude, you're talking to a noob, remember it's Intel who's inside, this is the stupid user speaking.
[11:33] <Mercenario> :-)
[11:33] <chamberlain> x1alpha: do you mean the document root?
[11:33] <sano[dot] lcs> vox754, its the burning question I have for those familiar with LVM
[11:33] <wise> hey.. I'm having problems with my iPod (2g nano)... I want to disconnect it, but nomatter what it says "Do not Disconnect"
[11:33] <benjamin_> kitche: i am pretty sure they are more patched than the debian ones .
[11:33] <NkZ> Benjamin_:Intel Inside, Idiot Outside. :-P
[11:34] <benjamin_> lol
[11:34] <wise>  i've tried unmounting, and modprobe -r sbp2
[11:34] <x1alpha> chamberlain: i think so :) hehe
[11:34] <chamberlain> ok, it should be /var/www
[11:34] <vox754> sano[dot] lcs, I LOVE the concept of ramdisk too. It is nice, I just discovered it with Knoppix.
[11:34] <Hagane> vox754 hahaha.. how much have you gotten so far?
[11:34] <NkZ> Well guys a Lot of thanks, I will poke around with the Hardware and see what can I find. :-)
[11:34] <wise> does anybody have good luck with iPods in linux?
[11:34] <NkZ> Be back to torment you in a while.
[11:34] <sano[dot] lcs> vox754: its great with 16+ gb like in my 1U
[11:34] <chamberlain> i have tried gtkpod, it works nicely for ipods
[11:35] <kitche> wise: what ipod video?
[11:35] <sano[dot] lcs> vox754: but you can't create more than 16, and no larger than 512mb
[11:35] <wise> chamberlain: i have GTKPod too, its great!  I just can disconnect it
[11:35] <benjamin_> NkZ: i dont know what is the current kernel version (on kernel;org) nor what is the ubuntu one (yep got busy with other things recently, and my hardware is quite old)
[11:35] <vox754> Hagane, 0. I don't have a job nor know how to do that donation...
[11:35] <wise> kitche: not video, 2G nano
[11:35] <chamberlain> yupp, great program, gtkpod is
[11:35] <sano[dot] lcs> well, i'm outie, guess no one can't help at the moment
[11:35] <sano[dot] lcs> PEACE!
[11:35] <chamberlain> sorry sano!
[11:36] <sano[dot] lcs> thx chamberlain, and everyone else
[11:36] <benjamin_> NkZ: what i mean is that if you have quite recent hardware, it might not be very well supported by the ubuntu kernel, but the kernel.org one might be
[11:36] <kitche> wise: then gtkpod works good if it was video you would have trouble witht he video side of it that's why i sked if it was a video one
[11:36] <Hagane> vox754 when i tried ndiswrapper i didnt uninstall the driver that came with ubuntu.. did i have to? how old are you?
[11:36] <wise> what do you do, chamberlain to disconnect
[11:36] <nrune_> one more try. Anyone have problems with mplayer firefox plugin creating mutilple processes of mplayer in the background?
[11:36] <OuZo_> anybody know a tvtime irc channel? thanks
[11:37] <vox754> Hagane, you have to "blacklist" it. I'm like, you know, 22.
[11:37] <chamberlain> i use "umount /dev/sdb1", where/dev/sdb1 is your ipod
[11:37] <chamberlain> usually sda1 or sdb1
[11:37] <draidi1> Hello, did anybody here know a german ubuntu chatroom?

[11:37] <Miotica> Hello I download the flash player but how in the terminal can i navigate to the dictory ??
[11:37] <chamberlain> did you extract the archive, miotica?
[11:37] <Hasrat_USA> dictory or directory?
[11:37] <DARKGuy> Miotica: cd PathToFolder
[11:38] <wise> chamberlain: i was doing umount /media/ipod
[11:38] <chamberlain> nope, that wont work wise
[11:38] <Miotica> chamberlain:  no, how ? is my first day with linux :)
[11:38] <wise> it unmounts, but the ipod still says "do not disconnect"
[11:38] <benjamin_> NkZ: i f you go around the forums and try to recompile your kernel with the many how to they have there, it could solve your problem. on another hand, since you say youre a noob, you could be victim of "automatix" "easyubuntu" or other junkware.
[11:38] <thompa> hi, is there something i need to do to insure intel gma 950 grasphics are working right?
[11:38] <vox754> Hagane, you add the driver "/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist"
[11:38] <wise> umount /dev/sdb1
[11:38] <wise> umount: /dev/sdb1: not found
[11:38] <thompa> i mean can i run opengl stuff with gma 950?
[11:38] <ALMimoni> i want program better than istanbul.
[11:38] <benjamin_> thompa: glxgears -printfps
[11:39] <leopartux> i dont want hard disk partition icons on desktop
[11:39] <chamberlain> in terminal, "tar xvzf archive.tar.gz" or you can double click on the file and click the extract button
[11:39] <thompa> benjamin_: ok
[11:39] <leopartux> how can i delet them
[11:39] <Hasrat_USA> you can delete them by 'deleting' them?
[11:39] <benjamin_> thompa: glxinfo must tell u u are using direct rendering as well
[11:40] <Miotica> uhm look
[11:40] <brianski> hmm, is it jst me or is edgy-seveas broken?
[11:40] <brianski> (no packages)
[11:40] <Hagane> vox754 not sure what you mean... do i just run that command and it install the blacklist program?
[11:40] <sgrove> I'm looking for a "translation" panel applet/widget, similar to the dictionary but instead you can pick the source and target languages
[11:40] <wise> can an ipod be /dev/sda* ?
[11:40] <sgrove> OSX has a widget exactly like this, in case anyone is familiar with it
[11:41] <chamberlain> probably, unless you have aniother device like an external drive, wise
[11:41] <vox754> Hagane, you add the name of the driver to the text file "/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist" also do "man blacklist"
[11:41] <Miotica> The name is install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
[11:41] <Miotica> WHat i should write in the terminal then ? btw the file is in dektop
[11:41] <Miotica> desktop *
[11:41] <benjamin_> wise: i dont think ipod areusb based... sda stuff is only usb i think
[11:41] <thompa> benjamin_: ok i got 4559 frames in 5.0 seconds = 911.670 FPS
[11:41] <Hasrat_USA> thompa: type glxinfo and see if the third line says direct rendering: yes
[11:41] <sgrove> googling for "gnome translation applet" doesn't work so well
[11:41] <chamberlain> ok then, in terminal type "tar xvzf install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz"
[11:41] <benjamin_> thompa: glxinfo
[11:41] <rkyraccoon55> !unmount
[11:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about unmount - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:41] <thompa> benjamin_: im also updating i should wait for that
[11:42] <benjamin_> thompa: look for direct rendering
[11:42] <thompa> ok
[11:42] <wise> chamberlain: nope... no external drives other than a wireless USB adapter
[11:42] <kitche> benjamin_: umm sda is scsi
[11:42] <Hasrat_USA> benjamin: isn't there something like glxgear too? why can't i run it? or am i misspelling the command?
[11:42] <benjamin_> kitche: yeah scsi emu
[11:42] <rkyraccoon55> anyone know how to get .m4a codecs for amarok?
[11:42] <chamberlain> miotica, files with the tar.gz ending are compressed archives, not directorys, so you have to extract them
[11:42] <Miotica> Doesn't work
[11:42] <Miotica> NO file / path
[11:42] <kitche> benjamin_: sda is serial devices actually
[11:42] <thompa> benjamin_: direct rendering yes
[11:42] <benjamin_> kitche: but ipod works with some kind of plugins inside software... no gnome-vfs stuff i think
[11:42] <chamberlain> and wise, just do the command "sudo umount /dev/sda1"
[11:42] <Hasrat_USA> oh, it is glxgears, not glxgear
[11:43] <Miotica> I need to use the terminal? Can i open the folder and click in the installer or something like that?
[11:43] <benjamin_> thompa: then its up and running :)
[11:43] <Hasrat_USA> sorry to bother you benjamin
[11:43] <thompa> benjamin_: im doing a massive upgrade as we speak though
[11:43] <lnxmomo> can anyone help me with wpa?
[11:43] <lnxmomo> i have a huge problem with wpa
[11:43] <chamberlain> well miotica, you can also just double click on the file ansd click extract, like i said earlier
[11:43] <Hasrat_USA> thompa make sure you can see the glxgears by typing glxgears
[11:43] <Hagane> vox754, great thanks!
[11:43] <thompa> benjamin_: thanks, so i should maybe be able to run bzflag huh?
[11:43] <benjamin_> thompa: your xorg.conf will not change i think, so it souldnt be a problem
[11:43] <kitche> benjamin_: yes but ipod is usb since it can act like a hard drive it can also be firewire if you have a firewire port
[11:43] <wise> sudo umount /dev/sda1
[11:43] <wise> umount: /dev/sda1: not mounted
[11:43] <dftpnkezln> hey, does anyone know if its possible to preconfigure ubuntu (from the live cd) in a way similar to xconfig?
[11:43] <AMD-> can any one please help  http://pastebin.ca/372208
[11:44] <wise> but its still saying "do not dissconnect"
[11:44] <vox754> Hagane, good
[11:44] <wise> -s
[11:44] <upd> why i can burn cd ubuntu on dvd
[11:44] <chamberlain> wise, thats probably because you already tried to unmount it with "umount /media/ipod"
[11:44] <sgrove> there was a frontend to babelfish but it doesn't seem to be around....?
[11:44] <techie1> Unresolved question from before. Can anybody help. I have windows xp pro with Fat32 partitions. Before installing Ubuntu as a dual boot should I change my partitions to NTFS or leave as is?
[11:44] <Miotica> chamberlain:  done :) !! thank you
[11:44] <chamberlain> no problem, glad to help
[11:44] <bnz84> hello
[11:44] <DARKGuy> techie1: If you want to share files in a safe way between Linux and Windows, leave it like that
[11:45] <n-iCe> chamberlain:  now let me check if i can watch videos :)
[11:45] <chamberlain> techie1, the fat32 partitions can be accessed in linux, so it might be easier
[11:45] <benjamin_> kitce: but arnt all ipod firewire ? and its kinda protected stuff, not very well known technology... thats why i say i dont think it currently can be a /dev/sd* . However it should be able to, since just as you say its a disk.
[11:45] <benjamin_> kitche
[11:45] <DARKGuy> techie1: NTFS writing under Linux isn't very reliable for very important data
[11:45] <lnxmomo> fat32 is easier to read by linux
[11:45] <Hasrat_USA> it would be better if you leave it as is, techie1, since if it's fat32 then you would be easily to read/write the fat32 from Linux's ext3 or reiserFS
[11:45] <cables> benjamin_, iPods are USB 2 now.
[11:45] <zyth> benjamin_, all new ipods are usb2
[11:45] <kitche> benjamin_: I can use my ipod with usb
[11:45] <Hasrat_USA> upd what? you don't want linux to have support for writing CD/DVDs?
[11:46] <techie1> <DARKGuy thanks and <chamberlain> so I assume that the Ubuntu 6.10 should be straight forward on this or should I partition extra space before the installation?
[11:46] <n-iCe> chamberlain:  Do you know how is called a programm that does wather effects etc... ?
[11:46] <cables> n-iCe, beryl?
 upd what? you don't want linux to have support for writing CD/DVDs?

[11:46] <wise> chamberlain: i tired mounting, then umounting using your command, no luck
[11:46] <dftpnkezln> anyone?
[11:46] <chamberlain> no, as long as you have empyty space on the drive, you can partition it during the installer
[11:46] <Hasrat_USA> upd sorry i bet i misinterpreted your earlier post :P
[11:46] <DARKGuy> techie1: yup, what chamberlain said :P
[11:46] <upd> i download cd ubuntu from internet and now i can burn it on dvd
[11:47] <upd> hmm
[11:47] <upd> :>
[11:47] <Hasrat_USA> yes you can if you want upd
[11:47] <chamberlain> well wise, from as much as i use my ipod, as long as the os isnt accessing the ipod, it might be ok to disconnect it
[11:47] <wise> chamberlain: should i add my ipod to fstab?

what do you recommend to repartition.... systemrescue CD or any other and then use the Gpart?
[11:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about creative - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:47] <n-iCe> cable no idea
[11:47] <Hasrat_USA> although there shouldn't be a need for that upd
[11:47] <chamberlain> no techie1, you can do it in the installer
[11:47] <upd> hm
[11:47] <n-iCe> can I show you an example cable ?
[11:47] <sgrove> so.....nothing that could possibly apply in this case?
directly?
[11:47] <chamberlain> unless your windows partition uses the whole drive
[11:47] <rkyraccoon55> how do i check if the reason no sound is coming out is because of my sound card?
[11:47] <crazy_penguin> Good night!
[11:47] <benjamin_> nite nite
[11:48] <chamberlain> techie1, do you have unpartitioned space on the drive?
[11:48] <Hasrat_USA> nite penguin
[11:48] <rkyraccoon55> g'night
can you give me an overall view... example, do i use during the installer the manual partition or let the program do it automatically?
[11:48] <dc2447> Hi - I am trying the resize an NFS partition to install Kubuntu - when I go to resize the slice it just hangs - I have also tried using gparted live cd and get a more verbose error" ERROR: Extended record needed (1032 > 1024), not yet supported!" - anyone have any thoughts?
[11:48] <cables> rkyraccoon55, is it in a specific program that sound doesn't work?
[11:48] <chamberlain> techie1, i need to know if you have unpartitioned space on the drive
[11:48] <rkyraccoon55> cables: good call, let me check
[11:48] <wise> chamberlain: k, disconnected even though the ipod told me not too.. oh well it still works juct fine
no it is all just one big c drive 50 g with about 24 gig extra space. Out of the 24 is where I will give space to ubuntu
[11:48] <chamberlain> ok wise, thats what i thought
[11:49] <benjamin_> dc2447: ??? i thought NFS was network shares ???!!!!!
[11:49] <wise> guys, xubuntu is so awesome.
[11:49] <dc2447> sorry - NTFS
[11:49] <chamberlain> techie1, thats not exactly how it works, ubfortunately
how to proceed then with the install disk
[11:49] <cables> rkyraccoon55, try closing all programs that use the sound card and run this command. You should hear white noise: "cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp"
[11:49] <wise> this is day 2 using this distro, and its by fat my favorite i've ever tried
[11:49] <benjamin_>  i do agree. xubuntu rocks. still need some work though
listening
[11:49] <DARKGuy> benjamin_: wise: agreed
[11:49] <skywalker> wise how much is it
[11:49] <wise> its so... simple, fast and beautiful
[11:49] <Hasrat_USA> oh wow i have given ubuntu 150 GB of space and the rest went to XP. oh wait XP aint even going to reside there for a long time since i'm gonna wipe it off my pc lol
so I must manually repartition and then use the installer
[11:50] <benjamin_> FAST !
[11:50] <chamberlain> you have to use something like the partition disk you mentioned to resize the partition first, and then proceed with the installer to create a partition in the newly created empty space
[11:50] <wise> skywalker: how much is what?
my question is "how to repartition" without messing up xp pro?
[11:50] <DARKGuy> Though, I think Ubuntu 6.10 alternate is way better: do it yourself! ^^
[11:50] <skywalker> xubuntu
[11:50] <skywalker> wise
[11:50] <chamberlain> im glad you think that, wise!
ok, i understand.
[11:50] <wise> skywalker: its free?
[11:50] <skywalker> can you DL it wise
[11:50] <cables> techie1, you should make a backup first.
[11:50] <Hasrat_USA> xubuntu is too lightweight aint it benjamin? what's your view on Kubuntu? doesn't KDE rock?
[11:50] <dftpnkezln> i recompiled my kernel this morning and now all that im getting from fglrxino is "OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project:" instead of my ATI card - ive uninstalled/reinstalled the ati drivers about 4 times now, anyone have any ideas?
[11:50] <n-iCe> How can I do to ubuntu doesn't ask me for login ???
[11:50] <joebob777as7> burepe are you on?
[11:50] <khaije1> 1010... wow
use systemrescue CD and repartition and do a backup first
[11:51] <rkyraccoon55> cables: "bash:  /dev/dsp: Device or resource busy"
[11:51] <dftpnkezln> fglrxinfo*
[11:51] <wise> i used to use knoppix, but for some reason i had peoblems with my wireless with the new version
then go ahead and install ubuntu using the 6.10 installer for the extra space (probably about 10) gig from the extra and the other 10 for xp
[11:51] <chamberlain> techie1, the partition disk you mentioned should be able to resize the partition without changing your windows, though i cant guarantee it, so backup all your importatn data, and make sure you have your windows reinstall disks, just in case
[11:51] <benjamin_> dftpnkezln. you need an easier to spell nick, and to compile some kernel modules as well :D
[11:51] <skywalker> wise Iam on ubuntu I like it alot this is rar that this desto is able wit hmy wireless card
[11:51] <chamberlain> techie1, didnt see what you wrote, but yeah that is what you have to do
understood. No guarantees but at least I have a process to follow.
[11:52] <cables> rkyraccoon55, I'm sort of at a loss. Have you tried more than one application?
[11:52] <rkyraccoon55> yea
[11:52] <lisapc> hi
[11:52] <chamberlain> skywalker, ive used multiple wireless cards with ndiswrapper with awesome success
[11:52] <skywalker> wiase I hate microsoft
[11:52] <cables> rkyraccoon55, has it ever worked?
[11:52] <chamberlain> hello
[11:52] <daftpnk> hehe thanks benjamin, but how do i do that
[11:52] <wise> suse is nice too, but i really do prefer ubuntu now
[11:52] <lisapc> skywalker why?
[11:52] <n-iCe> Someone know ?
[11:52] <techie1> thanks you all. let me go and battle with this while keeping my fingers crossed!
[11:52] <lisapc> wise why?

[11:52] <chamberlain> ok techie1, goood luck!
[11:52] <DARKGuy> techie1: good luck! :)
[11:52] <skywalker> it dont work for me lisapc
[11:52] <rkyraccoon55> cables: no, i just got ubuntu
[11:52] <cables> !sound | rkyraccoon55
[11:52] <ubotu> rkyraccoon55: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[11:52] <lisapc> skywalker why not?
[11:52] <techie1> thanks again for the input all of those you responded. I appreciate it.
[11:53] <benjamin_> skywalker: and u can do all this other stuff linux users can do with wireless, and windows cant... like "exploring" :)
[11:53] <wise> lisapc: it just works properly and efficently without hardcore configuration
[11:53] <chamberlain> so true, benjamin_
[11:53] <skywalker> virus spyware stupied voice chat rooms lisapc
[11:53] <lisapc> wise xbuntu livecd wont instyall for me
[11:53] <wise> lisapc: why not?
[11:53] <lisapc> skywalker good enougn reason :)
[11:53] <zyth> windows viruses run in wine
[11:53] <zyth> some of em
[11:53] <lisapc> wise no idea! stops at 86%
[11:53] <zyth> its spiffy
[11:53] <n-iCe> I already installed flash and i still can't watch videos! what can i do ?
[11:54] <chamberlain> i only use safe programs in wine
[11:54] <chamberlain> n-iCe, are you sure you installed it properly?
[11:54] <wise> thats weird lisapc i think there is a non-live version of xubuntu isnt there?
[11:54] <n-iCe> chamberlain:  yeah said installtion complete
[11:54] <n-iCe> installation complete
[11:54] <benjamin_> zyth: thats the all point. that means wine is a good windows emulation :)
[11:54] <merm> Anyone know why XP is telling me "Failed to open, retrying" after setting up a printer (working) using https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingFromWinXP
[11:54] <lisapc> wise no idea! im going to try the kbuntu
[11:54] <wise> why emulate windows these days?
[11:54] <chamberlain> did it ask you where the directory for firefox is, cause it might have been to the wrong place
[11:55] <lisapc> wise whats diff between ubuntu and kbuntu?
[11:55] <skywalker> good point wise
[11:55] <moose> quick question:  is there any reason for me to install a K7 kernel image over the generic (I am running and AMD64 cpu)
[11:55] <chamberlain> well wise, i need to use programs like flash and dreamweaver for web developement
[11:55] <zyth> lisapc, one has gnome as the default dekstop, one has KDE
[11:55] <cables> lisapc, different desktop environments.
[11:55] <daftpnk> benjamin_: what do you mean by recompile some modules?
[11:55] <wise> when i used redhat 5* i had too emulate a lot of programs with Wine... headaches
[11:55] <RedWorm> lisapc: one uses KDE and one uses Gnome
[11:55] <n-iCe> chamberlain:  yeah said, i din't pay attention in that , what i should do then ?
[11:55] <zyth> Wine is not an emulator
[11:55] <wise> i understand chamberlain
[11:55] <benjamin_> wise: i do agree. However Anno1602, unlike DukeNukem, was not ported to linux. So .... i use my girlfriends PC :P
[11:55] <lisapc> whats diff between Gnome and KDE?
[11:55] <tieTYT2> hi.  How do I open the current directory of my terminal as a gnome window?
[11:56] <chamberlain> n-iCe, you should check out http://www.ubuntuguide.org, it as a good walkthrough
[11:56] <apokryphos> lisapc: KDE is better :P
[11:56] <cables> lisapc, it works, looks, and acts differently. You can try both to see which one you like better.
[11:56] <RedWorm> nautalis .
[11:56] <apokryphos> lisapc: but seriously, try both of them and check Google.
[11:56] <lisapc> apokryphos ill get the kbuntu image then :)
[11:56] <RedWorm> tieTYT2: nautalis .
[11:56] <DARKGuy> if you have a powerful PC and an XP disk around, you can set up a VM, use Remote Desktop 4.5 for Linux and run Windows apps in the VM and see the output (the window and all) in your linux desktop. I made a thread about it in the ubuntuforums.org ^^
[11:56] <n-iCe> I'll chamberlain thank you.
[11:56] <zyth> KDE is NOT better
[11:56] <cables> lisapc, apokryphos should have put a :) at the end of his message :)
[11:56] <chamberlain> ok
[11:56] <tieTYT2> RedWorm: thanks, is there a way to do it the other way around?
[11:56] <apokryphos> cables: why?
[11:56] <lisapc> cables hehe
[11:56] <chamberlain> i love ubuntuguide, awesome guide
[11:56] <benjamin_> zyth: wine is an emulator. no one can do shit the way Microsoft does. Even if the wine programmers tend to think so. They are too good for that.
[11:56] <zyth> benjamin_, no, no it is not.
[11:56] <merm> Does anyone know why XP tells me "Failed to open" printer after sharing from my Ubuntu machine? Anyone?
[11:57] <lisapc> zyth why do u use gnoem and not kde?
[11:57] <apokryphos> !ohmy | benjamin_
[11:57] <ubotu> benjamin_: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[11:57] <zyth> benjamin_, its an implementation of the windows api.
[11:57] <benjamin_> zyth: that was a joke dude.
[11:57] <RedWorm> tiagoboldt: right click maybe? can't remember and i'm not in gnoem right onw
[11:57] <n-iCe> brb
[11:57] <cables> lisapc, I use gnome. I just like it better. Try both.
[11:57] <chamberlain> lisapc, i find kde way to cluttered for my taste
[11:57] <zyth> lisapc, kde is too cluttered for my taste.  Strictly personal opinion.  Use whatever you like.
[11:57] <RedWorm> tieTYT2:  right click maybe? can't remember and i'm not in gnoem right now
[11:57] <upd> what program is like k3b
[11:57] <lisapc> cables why u like it better than KDE?
[11:57] <wise> the only thing i've had a problem with in xubuntu is the ipod issue, and one line in fstab
[11:57] <chamberlain> well said, redworm :P
[11:57] <tieTYT2> ok thanks anyway
[11:57] <lisapc> zyth define cluttered pls
[11:57] <zyth> I use gnome because Linus hates it and I hate Linux ;)
[11:57] <Stormx2> upd: k3b
[11:57] <cables> lisapc, you can convert Kubuntu to Ubuntu, and the other way around, once it's installed. So you shouldn't worry about which one now.
[11:57] <fra> #bigbug
[11:57] <lisapc> is Gnome more stable than KDE?
[11:58] <cables> lisapc, KDE is too cluttered for me. Gnome is simple and sweet.
[11:58] <zyth> lisapc, it has lots and lots of options and buttons for everything known to man ;)
[11:58] <upd> no other program for burc cds
[11:58] <daftpnk> benjamin_, i know im being annoying (sorry) but what do you mean about compiling some kernel modules in relation to my ati card not showing up in fglrxinfo ?
[11:58] <lisapc> ok
[11:58] <Stormx2> lisapc: Just stick with gnome for now.
[11:58] <zyth> upd, gnomebaker, xcdroast
[11:58] <moose> K7 vs generic kernal image for an AMD CPU?
[11:58] <wise> xfce is way better than gnome or KDE
[11:58] <Stormx2> wise: not here.
[11:58] <upd> ok
[11:58] <chamberlain> no idea moose, sorry
[11:58] <zyth> wise, evilwm > xfce
[11:58] <wise> i used to use fluxbox... no more!
[11:58] <moose> thanks
[11:58] <ingrix> Wise: It just depends on what you want
[11:58] <RedWorm> tty is the best!
[11:58] <deb_user> so...how do I know its time to upgrade to edgy?
[11:58] <zyth> xpde FTW!
[11:58] <zyth> ;)
[11:58] <merm> What's the best way to get an answer using this channel?
[11:58] <cables> lisapc, you shouldn't worry about that now. You can use both once it's installed, so don't worry about what to install now.
[11:59] <chamberlain> deb_user, i think edgy is stable enough to do it now
[11:59] <RedWorm> merm: ask a question
[11:59] <zyth> merm, ask and be patient, if someone knows they'll answer.
[11:59] <chamberlain> especially concidering that feisty will be out in april
[11:59] <wise> i wish a WM could be controlled with an ipod wheel.
[11:59] <tieTYT2> thanks
[11:59] <wise> ipod wheels = pwnage
[11:59] <benjamin_> daftpnk: ure not being annoying. However i have never really used the ati proprietary driver on a vanilla kernel. BUT i know you have to compile a few kernel modules to make your ATI fglrx driver on a vanilla kernel. there is a wiki about that which will tell you much more than i can :)
[11:59] <lisapc> cables okies
[11:59] <zyth> wise, get ipodlinux :)
[11:59] <Frogzoo> deb_user: feisty's only 2 months away
[12:00] <soweto76> merm, sometimes it is a good idea to ask again at another time
[12:00] <merm> Thanks, maybe third time is a charm :) I've followed the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingFromWinXP and set up a working printer. But my question is that I'd like to understand better why XP is telling me that it "failed to open" the printer. I'm curious if anyyone knows why XP can't seem to "open" the printer, though it can print to it.
[12:00] <wise> zyth: not compatable yet with the 2nd gen nanos
[12:00] <chamberlain> but frogzoo, deb_user will have to upgrade to edgy before feisty anyway
[12:00] <ingrix> daftpnk: What is your problem with your ATI card?
[12:00] <Frogzoo> chamberlain: dayum
[12:00] <zyth> daftpnk, http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Edgy_Installation_Guide
[12:00] <zyth> wise, ahh. rockbox then.
[12:01] <zyth> not linux but hey
[12:01] <chamberlain> pardon, frogzoo?
