[12:01] <Frogzoo> chamberlain: not necessarily, some of us just use fresh installs
[12:01] <benjamin_> daftpnk: make a search about fglrx on the wiki, and it will tell you how to use your card witha vanilla kernel
[12:01] <chamberlain> thats true frogzoo
[12:01] <zyth> merm, so it prints but throws up an error anyhow?
[12:01] <daftpnk> well, i recompiled my kernel this morning (trouble with hardware sensors) and now when im trying to get 3d rendering/xgl going all i can get out of fglrxino is "OpenGL vendor string: Mesa project: www.mesa3d.org" instead of ATI as previously
[12:01] <wise> zyth: meh, you have to give credit to iPod for making the best portable media player in existance.  the stock iPod is so great
[12:01] <daftpnk> ok ill give it a shot benjamin_ thanks
[12:01] <alecf> hey
[12:01] <zyth> wise, no I don't , I bought one and returned it the next day
[12:01] <skywalker> my sound card is detected but its with wrong one?
[12:02] <chamberlain> hello alecf
[12:02] <daftpnk> you too zyth
[12:02] <alec> i need help
[12:02] <zyth> daftpnk, np
[12:02] <alec> i just downloaded the ubuntu 6.10 disc
[12:02] <zyth> alec, #psychiatry
[12:02] <chamberlain> sure alec
[12:02] <skywalker> I need to change this
[12:02] <ingrix> daftpnk: Go to the link that zyth sent you, and do the manual install
[12:02] <merm> zyth:  it's when I go into my Printer CP in XP and open the queue. I see this error at the top of the screen. Though it's printing great.
[12:02] <ingrix> daftpnk: Er, what is your video card model, first?
[12:02] <alec> but when it loads the xserver, all the graphics go nuts
[12:02] <chamberlain> whats wrong alec?
[12:02] <daftpnk> ingrix: ati mobility radeon x700
[12:02] <alec> so i cant install
[12:02] <zyth> merm, windows is probably on crack and I'd not worry about it :)
[12:02] <wise> damnit... i used to be such a IRC addict... goddamnit.
[12:03] <alec> i have a macbook pro, c2d, radeon mobility x1600
[12:03] <chamberlain> hmmm alec, try the alternate install cd, but that might mean your software isnt supported
[12:03] <Hagane> vox549.. whats the man command for?
[12:03] <ingrix> daftpnk: Yeah, thats similar to mine, which I just had to do that for this morning.  Go with the manual install and it should work
[12:03] <chamberlain> what is your graphics card?
[12:03] <alec> it worked for the edgy install, i wanted to use 6 instead
[12:03] <daftpnk> ah alright, thats a relief
[12:03] <skywalker> what is a good free emulatior to use beside winr?
[12:03] <merm> :) I'm sure it is. Just wanted to understand what was going on if I could. But maybe not worth it.
[12:03] <daftpnk> ive been tearing my hair out
[12:03] <alec> and then 6 didnt work
[12:03] <Hagane> vox754 what was that man command thing you said to do?
[12:03] <alec> so i went back to 7
[12:03] <benjamin_> daftpnk: this model actually works with the opensource driver if i remember. you might want to check out radeondriver page on the wiki
[12:03] <alec> and then the 7 installer wont work either
[12:03] <DARKGuy> skywalker: there isn't any other :/
[12:03] <ingrix> daftpnk: lol, I know what you mean
[12:03] <alec> so now NOTHING is working.
[12:04] <chamberlain> alec youll have to use full numbers like 6.06, i cant understand just 6 and 7
[12:04] <vox754> Hagane, nothing, I thought it would explain it, but I was mistaken.
[12:04] <BrianG> if i add more ram to my computer running ubuntu do i have to do anything to ubuntu to tell it i have new ram?
[12:04] <cables> skywalker, you mean wine? There's crossover office and cedega which are commercial versions of wine.
[12:04] <alec> 6.10, 7.04
[12:04] <chamberlain> nope BrianG
[12:04] <DARKGuy> skywalker: Cedega (for games) isn't free (except the SVN version, but personally it's a pain to configure and compile (slow PC...)) and CrossOver Office but it isn't free, it has a trial though...
[12:04] <chamberlain> and alec, what is your graphics card?
[12:04] <alec> mobility radeon x1600
[12:04] <skywalker> I heard virtualdisk\
[12:04] <DARKGuy> oO
[12:04] <chamberlain> let me check it out
[12:04] <Hagane> vox754 okay trying ndiswrapper again now
[12:05] <wise> oh actually... i am having a problem with all media players other than xmms... i got the restricted codec thign off of add/remove... but banshee isn't working
[12:05] <moose> is there a quick command to check how much RAM ubuntu detects?
[12:05] <benjamin_> cedega is not only commercial, they re bastards. You will have to pay quite a lot to have poor quality cdrom protection compatibility. just use wine and crack your stuff if needed
[12:05] <tealson> does anyone have some experiance with dd? howlong does "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda bs=10240" normally take?
[12:05] <feryana> I bought a new computer CORE 2 with 2GB ram 2Gforce with Windows Vista Premium.... i'm with my ubuntu laptop, and I will boot the unopened pc (once opened) with the Cd of Ubuntu Desktop to install... I wont even see how is vista :P
[12:05] <chamberlain> alec, to get you right, no version is working for you anymore?  did they use to work?
[12:05] <wise> same with rhythembox
[12:05] <alec> 7.04 did
[12:05] <LordUltimaDavid> do the newest nvidia beta drivers work with geforce 4s?
[12:05] <alec> now none of the install discs show a usable GUI
[12:06] <alec> its just weird distorted graphics
[12:06] <wise> how can i get my MP3's working with banshee or rhythembox?
[12:06] <benjamin_> feryana: we all are very proud :)
[12:06] <chamberlain> alec, you could try to install from the alternate install and see if it sorts itself out
[12:06] <alec> sure
[12:06] <zyth> feryana, say no to the eula on vista, take pics, demand a refund
[12:06] <alec> be back in... a bit :P
[12:06] <chamberlain> lol ok alec
[12:07] <feryana> Some one wants the Vista CD (just one buck) plus $5 shipping
[12:07] <chamberlain> so true benjamin
[12:07] <MybEvil_> how do I update my plugins for watching videos?
[12:07] <DARKGuy> haha
[12:07] <DARKGuy> yay for reinstall? :P
[12:07] <chamberlain> mybevil, do you have them already installed?
[12:07] <MybEvil_> I don't know
[12:07] <MybEvil_> lol
[12:07] <chamberlain> (and working)
[12:07] <MybEvil_> I don't think :P
[12:07] <benjamin_> feryana: hehe my uni gives them for free !
[12:07] <stratusfear> anyone know how to make mplayer faster?
[12:07] <chamberlain> so you havent installed them yourself yet?
[12:07] <MybEvil_> no
[12:08] <MybEvil_> My friend sent me a vid to watch
[12:08] <dubby> hate to interrupt, but does anyone have any idea of a 'lightweight' tv recorder, preferably with a clean gui. I am aware of mythtv but its a resource hog, clunky, and hard to configure.
[12:08] <MybEvil_> and It said I needed plugins
[12:08] <stratusfear> anyone know how to make mplayer faster?
[12:08] <benjamin_> stratusfear: compile it yourself !
[12:08] <chamberlain> ok, youll have to follow a walktrhough, like http://www.ubuntuguide.org to read how
[12:08] <feryana> benjamin_ and you really want those copies? or just to play as freesbes
[12:08] <cafuego_> stratusfear: run it on higher end hardware
[12:08] <ingrix> stratusfear: Get Xine
[12:08] <Muntrue> Hello
[12:08] <reuben> question: just installed ubuntu edgy....I want help with screen resolution...how do I resize to 1440x900
[12:08] <SnrWhippy> vlc is the best
[12:08] <chamberlain> i suggest totem-xine
[12:08] <benjamin_> feryana: i didnt even bother taking one to be honnest
[12:09] <ingrix> reuben: Go to System -> Preferences -> Screen Resolution
[12:09] <benjamin_> my computers dont have 512 megs of graphics mem
[12:09] <stratusfear> i have to edit ~/.mplayer/config but i dont remember what i have to write on it
[12:09] <DARKGuy> Beryl does the effects Vista does (and more!) with less resources 
[12:09] <feryana> benjamin_ who wants that?  I will send to the garbage the Windows Vista Premium... ffrom the box to the trash : D :D
[12:09] <ingrix> reuben: If you have the ability to use that resolution, it will be there
[12:09] <coredata> interest
[12:09] <MybEvil_> chamberlain, the page isn't loading
[12:09] <daftpnk> true darkguy
[12:10] <chamberlain> mybevil?  you sure?
[12:10] <alec_> chamberlain, the reason i want to go back to 6.10 is because apparently 7.04 doesnt support beryl
[12:10] <AMD-> how do i add the directory containing `gtkmm-2.4.pc'
[12:10] <AMD-> to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
[12:10] <MybEvil_> yes
[12:10] <alec_> i tried and it didnt work.
[12:10] <DARKGuy> daftpnk: yeah, and it's cooler too xD
[12:10] <MybEvil_> i'll try again
[12:10] <chamberlain> ok alec, have you tried from the alternate cd?
[12:10] <benjamin_> feryana: if the US were respecting the Kyot treaty, maybe Microsoft wouldnt pollute the world soo much.
[12:10] <benjamin_> Kyoto*
[12:10] <alec_> im downloading now
[12:10] <chamberlain> ok
[12:10] <chamberlain> well give it a shot
[12:11] <daftpnk> darkguy: i had vista installed before ubuntu (showing off flip3d etc), thought id give ubuntu a shot a few weeks ago and havent used vista since :/
[12:11] <Muntrue> Question : is beryl only for ATI or Nvidea video cards ?
[12:11] <chamberlain> does it work now mybevil?
[12:11] <ingrix> daftpnk: Unless you are sadomasochistic you made the right choice lol
[12:11] <daftpnk> :p
[12:11] <alec_> vista blows.
[12:11] <reuben> only showing 1024x768....I have a 17" wxga and 1440x900 was the native in xp
[12:11] <ingrix> alec_: absoultely right
[12:11] <DARKGuy> daftpnk: lol!... good choice though :P I haven't had a chance to try Vista though :( I'd like to, just to see how it is xD
[12:11] <jrib> AMD-: install the missing dependencies
[12:11] <gravemind> how do I burn audio cds from flac files?
[12:11] <vox754> Hagane, you there? What's up? Tell me again seriously if you donated to ndiswrapper.
[12:11] <AMD-> i have try that about 100 times
[12:11] <DARKGuy> And to see how many apps I can crash
[12:12] <benjamin_> Muntrue: beryl is a window manager. u can run it with a 256k graphics card if u have6gigs of cpu
[12:12] <DARKGuy> at once :D
[12:12] <ingrix> DARKGuy: There are some 1200 critical errors at this point
[12:12] <mossy> hi all :)
[12:12] <daftpnk> heh
[12:12] <chamberlain> i find with vista that they are too busy trying to make it look good like os x and linux to make it stable
[12:12] <jrib> AMD-: tried what exactly.  What did you do?
[12:12] <DARKGuy> igor47: :| damn
[12:12] <AMD-> also i have found the missing fiel
[12:12] <alec_> why did it take them 6 years to make a new start button?
[12:12] <chamberlain> nice comment alec
[12:12] <DARKGuy> chamberlain: making it look good... they can. Making it as stable as Linux? never!
[12:12] <ingrix> chamberlain: Yeah man, have you tried to work the network manager?
[12:12] <feryana> benjamin_ I know.... I dont want to know the price of the comp without the Vista Premium.... 3 big ones to the trash :S
[12:12] <AMD-> i installed the missing stuff including the dev stuff
[12:12] <alec_> they could have done something else too
[12:12] <chamberlain> really though darkguy
[12:12] <benjamin_> Muntrue. what you need is your graphics drivers to be compatible with AIGLX or XGL
[12:13] <jrib> AMD-: *exactly* what did you install, what packages?
[12:13] <reuben> ingrix the option isn't available
[12:13] <DARKGuy> Though, I've heard they're using some kind of user-privilege system and security similar to Linux's :/
[12:13] <DARKGuy> Anyhow
[12:13] <AMD-> http://pastebin.ca/372208
[12:13] <chamberlain> not true darkguy, you can still hack it
[12:13] <ingrix> reuben: much past that I can't help you too much, sorry
[12:13] <vox754> DARKGuy, do you know a public pastebin for images?
[12:13] <gravemind> is serpentine good for burning music?
[12:13] <vox754> chamberlain, , do you know a public pastebin for images?
[12:13] <ingrix> reuben: I will do some reading though, and see what I can find
[12:13] <AMD-> jrib: gtkmm-2.4 >= 2.8.0 libglademm-2.4 >= 2.6.0 libxml-2.0 >= 2.6.0
[12:14] <chamberlain> nope vox754, i use my apache web server
[12:14] <daftpnk> darkguy: sort of, only it asks you every 30 seconds for reauthentication
[12:14] <gravemind> vox754: I'm thinking imageshack
[12:14] <benjamin_> feryana: a shame really. actually my gf bought a Dell comp.... damn there is so uch trash on it preinstalled ! it doesnt have half the utilities i got, and still, my old laptop runs better than her fat 2 cpu thing !
[12:14] <gravemind> if that even exists
[12:14] <reuben> ingrix thanks this is my first linux install
[12:14] <DARKGuy> vox754: www.tinypic.com , imageshack.us
[12:14] <gravemind> ah, I was right
[12:14] <jrib> AMD-: heh, if you want me to help you, you need to work with me.  Those aren't package names
[12:14] <rkyraccoon55> !sound
[12:14] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[12:14] <vox754> thanks, all I needed a quick response.
[12:14] <gravemind> imageshack
[12:14] <ingrix> reuben: No problem.  I love it when people try linux out
[12:14] <DARKGuy> daftpnk: chamberlain: D'oh :/ now it doesn't surprise me, coming from MS... xD
[12:14] <rfschmid> I'm trying to get BasKet 1.0 working under Ubuntu Edgy (not kubuntu), but whenever I run it it tells me it cannot create folders for the new basket, unless I run it with gksudo, in which case it works.
[12:15] <TheOneMrO> im using Ubuntu Ultimate
[12:15] <TheOneMrO> its pretty sweet
[12:15] <daftpnk> hehe
[12:15] <ingrix> reuben: What did you say the desired resolution si?
[12:15] <gravemind> hey guys, is serpentine a good burner, can it burn things that are flac to regular audio?
[12:15] <daftpnk> im stuck with ubuntu home premium
[12:15] <AMD-> jrib:did you want to know what im installing not the dependencies ?
[12:15] <chamberlain> hahaha daftpnk
[12:15] <DARKGuy> xD
[12:15] <jrib> AMD-: I want to know what packages you installed to fulfill those dependencies
[12:15] <MybEvil_> can ubuntu run .wmv files?
[12:15] <feryana> benjamin_ I know.... that's other reason that I don't want to even boot once the new comp with the Vista Premium.  I can get pissed off finding that this old laptop is faster.... so I boot with Ubuntu and enjoy the new machine
[12:15] <chamberlain> thats what i love, linux is all what you make it
[12:15] <SnrWhippy> how easy is it to get beryl running
[12:16] <reuben> ingrix 1440x900 its an acer laptop with a 17" wxga
[12:16] <Hagane> vox754...hahha someone around me has their network key in their network name
[12:16] <chamberlain> depends snrwhippy, is your card supported?
[12:16] <Hagane> vox754 i just connected to it and it was connected just not sending/recieving data so i guess it isnt my router
[12:16] <MybEvil_> can ubuntu run .wmv files?
[12:16] <SnrWhippy> i've got ati radeon xpress 1100
[12:16] <chamberlain> yupp it can mybevil
[12:16] <ingrix> reuben: Alright, I have the same sort of screen.  I think I might have found out what it is
[12:16] <jrib> MybEvil_: players that run on ubuntu can let you view them
[12:16] <chamberlain> you have to have extracodecs installed
[12:16] <ingrix> reuben: I will reboot and tell you if it works
[12:16] <MybEvil_> ok
[12:16] <jrib> !wmv | MybEvil_
[12:17] <ubotu> MybEvil_: 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
[12:17] <reuben> ingrix ok great
[12:17] <chamberlain> nice response ubotu
[12:17] <gravemind> MybEvil_: your best bet is installing VLC from system>administration>synaptic
[12:17] <wise> ubuntuguide is great!
[12:17] <chamberlain> isnt it, wise?
[12:17] <wise> wow...!
[12:17] <AMD-> jrib:ok i opends sypnaptic and searched for gtkmm and look for version 2.4 installed it and also install its dev files
[12:17] <alecfeld> i still prefer os x over anything :D
[12:17] <chamberlain> i use it all the time
[12:17] <spuddogg_> !mp3

[12:17] <wise> chamberlain: it solved all my audio issues in one commandline!
[12:17] <chamberlain> awesome
[12:17] <gravemind> os x is still the best I think... if you're rich
[12:18] <AMD-> i done the same for all files
[12:18] <wise> now i can use banshee
[12:18] <alecfeld> macs are very affordable
[12:18] <Hasrat_USA> I thought OSX was based on Unix
[12:18] <feryana> welll the cd is burnt... gone take out the trash from the new pc :) see ya!
[12:18] <gravemind> it is
[12:18] <chamberlain> i use to use an old imac, till it blew somethings
[12:18] <daftpnk> macs are onesize fits all
[12:18] <jrib> ok, is libgtkmm-2.4-dev installed?
[12:18] <jrib> AMD-: ok, is libgtkmm-2.4-dev installed?
[12:18] <MybEvil_> gravemind, I see a VLS
[12:19] <MybEvil_> I don't see a VLC
[12:19] <wise> i think i like rhythembox better than banshee though
[12:19] <DARKGuy> um, just mod Ubuntu to look like Mac OSX, that'll do, and it's cheaper :P
[12:19] <alecfeld> but you dont get all that sweet os x power :D
[12:19] <alecfeld> like final cut pro
[12:19] <alecfeld> mmm
[12:19] <gravemind> MybEvil: do you have universe and multiverse repositories selected?
[12:19] <chamberlain> i have a dock on gnome :D
[12:19] <AMD-> i will check to make shure
[12:19] <DARKGuy> :/ well, but you get the look xD
[12:19] <Deimios> hi, i just did a system update on a fresh (brand new) Dapper system, and it failed while doing a kernel update (as well as Openoffice.org), now the system won't boot...the only way I can get it to boot is to restart in recovery mode on the previous version of the kernel...I tried running "aptitude install" to see if it would complete the kernel upgrade, but it still fails
[12:19] <alecfeld> pfft screw the look
[12:19] <Hasrat_USA> hey darkguy my KDE in Ubuntu already resembles MacOSx and if i add beryl xgl/composite etc it would fly :P
[12:19] <MybEvil_> I don't think
[12:19] <MybEvil_> lol
[12:19] <chamberlain> deimios, try to get your data off, and reinstall from a disk
[12:20] <joebob777as7> can someone help me with getting gimpshop on kubuntu? or help me find the deb for it? I can't find it on apt
[12:20] <Black^Dragon> how did you get that Hasrat_USA?
[12:20] <ingrix> reuben: Sorry, what I thought would work didn't work
[12:20] <ingrix> reuben: I don't have too much advice past that
[12:20] <Hasrat_USA> Black^Dragon: get what? KDE?
[12:20] <AMD->  jrib:yes it is installed
[12:20] <gravemind> who uses flac?
[12:20] <DARKGuy> Hasrat_USA: Cool xD, how did you do it? I haven't tinkered with KDE's docker very much but did you really made it look like OSX's top bar? o.o
[12:20] <Black^Dragon> make ubuntu look like kde desktop yes Hasrat_USA
[12:20] <jrib> AMD-: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[12:20] <sergo> hello
[12:20] <AMD-> 6.10
[12:20] <AMD-> edgy
[12:21] <sergo> it is possible to play .avi ?
[12:21] <chamberlain> hey, sergo
[12:21] <chamberlain> yupp
[12:21] <Hagane> vox754 how do i run a .run file?
[12:21] <sergo> how, tell me please... :(
[12:21] <gravemind> Deimos: maybe you should reinstall?
[12:21] <bimberi> !gimpshop | joebob777as7
[12:21] <ubotu> joebob777as7: gimpshop is a hack that makes The Gimp look and feel more like Photoshop.  A .deb for Ubuntu is available via http://plasticbugs.com/?page_id=294
[12:21] <reuben> ingrix ok no hassles
[12:21] <Deimios> chamberlain:  that's not a problem since there's no data on it yet, (it's a fresh system), but i'm concerned if it will happen again
[12:21] <chamberlain> ummm let me dig up the link
[12:21] <chamberlain> it shouldnt happen again deimios, something probably just screwed up
[12:21] <jrib> AMD-: why is ./configure using /usr/local/bin/pkg-config ?
[12:21] <CPU_Wizard> hello people. i would like o install an irc server on ubuntu, but don't know how... i issued the following command: sudo apt-get install ircd and installed some stuff, but now i don't know what to do... any help would be really appreciated :)
[12:21] <vox754> Hagane, I don't know. What is it? Maybe "bash file.run"
[12:22] <reuben> ingrix thanks a lot anyway...how do i install beryl...cant get apt-get to work
[12:22] <chamberlain> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats there sergo
[12:22] <ingrix> reuben: Do you know what synaptic is?
[12:22] <Hasrat_USA> DARKGuy: well how much you want to customize and make it look like MacOSx entirely depends on your preference. for an introduction, just tinker with desktop configurations. there are plenty of themes and eye-candies available out there. also, beryl and other 3D desktops simply KILL every other OSs that exist on this planet, i.e. vista, xp mcOSx etc
[12:22] <AMD-> jrib:i have no clue
[12:22] <reuben> ingrix no
[12:22] <Deimios> the Kernel update seems to be failing while it's trying to install a module for a wireless driver, which I don't even need...if i was compiling a kernel myself I'd just go in and disable the module, but I'm wondering if it's possible to just disable that module using the package management system
[12:22] <jrib> AMD-: you must have installed your own pkg-config to /usr/local, that must be why it doesn't find anything.  Get rid of it
[12:22] <LordUltimaDavid> does "envy" setup aiglx as well as nvidia drivers?
[12:23] <user123> How I can see video in streaming (es googlevideo) on amd64 architecture?
[12:23] <ingrix> reuben: Go to System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager
[12:23] <chamberlain> deimios, its probably not a problem that will affect you much if you install from a disk
[12:23] <reuben> ingrix actually i've been going by advice i got from here...doing it now
[12:23] <Hasrat_USA> if you aint got KDE, type sudoo apt-get install KDE
[12:23] <desres> hey question: if i partition my hard drive to dual-boot xp and ubuntu, and i decide i don't like ubuntu, (i've already tried live disk), then can I delete the partition and get my full hard drive back for xp?
[12:23] <Hagane> vox754 the linuxant driver installer... u got to college?
[12:23] <Black^Dragon> that will work on ubuntu Hasrat_USA??
[12:23] <CPU_Wizard> anyone who can help me please?
[12:24] <Hasrat_USA> Black^Dragon: yeah :P why wouldn't it?
[12:24] <Deimios> so should I avoid doing the kernel update in the future then?
[12:24] <AMD-> i did install pkg-config
[12:24] <chamberlain> desres, youll have to have a partition disk to resize the partition to its orivinal sizw
[12:24] <Hasrat_USA> Black^Dragon: make sure you have sufficient disk space
[12:24] <vox754> Hagane, yes sir. Master of Science.
[12:24] <jrib> AMD-: through the package manager?
[12:24] <ingrix> reuben: Click the "Reload" button at the top when you open it up
[12:24] <AMD-> no sypnatic
[12:24] <Black^Dragon> I have no idea Hasrat_USA,, I'm very very new to useing linux, like a few weeks since install
[12:24] <CPU_Wizard> i would like o install an irc server on ubuntu, but don't know how... i issued the following command: sudo apt-get install ircd and installed some stuff, but now i don't know what to do... any help would be really appreciated :)
[12:25] <Xerroz> is there any way to get dmesg to not report [    0.000000]  ?
[12:25] <jrib> AMD-: yes, but you have /usr/local/bin/pkg-config which was not installed by the package manager (e.g. synaptic)
[12:25] <Hasrat_USA> many newbies i have confronted so far don't allocate much space for linux and give away most of their HDD's space for that M$ Winblow$ that copied stuff from linux and apple
[12:25] <chamberlain> cpu_wizard, you might want to google a howto
[12:25] <gravemind> desires: quick answer is yes
[12:25] <Hasrat_USA> Black^Dragon: you are using GNOME now, right?
[12:25] <CPU_Wizard> chamberlain, i tried google but i didn't get any results about ubuntu
[12:25] <chamberlain> well it isnt really distribution specific, the configuration should be universal
[12:25] <desres> Hasrat_USA: well, i wouldnt be doing that. I just have a 40GB hard drive, and itll be tight.
[12:25] <Black^Dragon> only one free connection to router atm Hasrat_USA, so useing my windows box, ubuntu box is on other desk
[12:26] <Hagane> vox754 .. :D
[12:26] <AMD->  jrib:i have just removed it using sypnatic but things still wont install
[12:26] <CPU_Wizard> i'll check again chamberlain thnx
[12:26] <chamberlain> no problem
[12:26] <Hasrat_USA> i'm new to linux too. running Linux for only a week
[12:26] <chamberlain> awesome hasrat, you liek it?
[12:26] <jrib> AMD-: you are misunderstanding me.  Do you mind joining me in #ubuntu-classroom where there is less traffic?
[12:26] <DARKGuy> Hasrat_USA: I agree :P but so far I haven't found any config to make Ubuntu look like OSX :/ I've just found GTK themes, login screens, wallpapers, desktop icons, shadows & beryl... but I haven't been able to make the top bar look like Mac OSX in Gnome/XFCE/KDE, that's all I have left xD
[12:27] <AMD-> graet idea
[12:27] <reuben> ingrix did that no beryl...searched and scrolled list
[12:27] <Hasrat_USA> chamberlain: yeah i do. i would say i NEED it, rather than merely saying 'like it' :
[12:27] <chamberlain> awesome hasrat
[12:28] <chamberlain> cant stand windows, though im on it here ...
[12:28] <Hasrat_USA> 18:28:30 up 22:43,  1 user,  load average: 0.22, 0.24, 0.28
[12:29] <akao> hey guys
[12:29] <ingrix> reuben: It doesn't seem to be a package that you can download.  You will have to get the tar.gz file and make it that way
[12:29] <chamberlain> hey akao
[12:30] <reuben> ingrix will that be similar to a download and extract/install like on xp?
[12:30] <chamberlain> got a question akao, or just coming to hang out?
[12:30] <Deimios> ok chamberlain, it doesn't seem to me like it will actually resolve the root issue, but i'm going to try your suggestion and reinstall the entire OS...
[12:30] <chamberlain> ok deimios, good luck
[12:31] <ingrix> reuben: Kind of.  Most of the time the makers of programs will include some sort of README with their stuff, which should tell you what to do
[12:31] <reuben> ingrix ok i'll give it a try...will get back to you
[12:33] <Hasrat_USA> i do have a secret. i have made up a rule in my mind and followed it to overcome most of the major problems when switching from windows to linux. the secret is: you're bound to confront many problems after installing linux, and if you don't, congrats. but if you do, simply say it to yourself, "no matter what happens, i'm not gonna boot to Windows to use this feature." and that's it. for example, my mother wanted to talk to me from
[12:33] <Hasrat_USA> overseas using yahoo messenger. but that day i wasn't able to use gaim to do voice chatting with her in linux. so what i did was that i told her to postpone our online meeting. then i started doing my research and found out that gyachi has webcam and voice capabilities, went ahead and installed it. if i didn't do the research and switched to XP to talk to my mother, i wouldn't have learnt to install gyachi. what i did was that i
[12:33] <Hasrat_USA> sticked to Linux
[12:33] <Enverex> Anyone here familiar with Launchpad?
[12:33] <PriceChild> Enverex, hey yes
[12:33] <test3> is ubuntu the shit now? i mean i haven't used it in a min, i've been using debian
[12:33] <PriceChild> !ohmy | test3
[12:33] <ubotu> test3: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[12:34] <jrib> !anyone | Enverex
[12:34] <ubotu> Enverex: 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?
[12:34] <chamberlain> test3, its awesome
[12:34] <Enverex> jrib, shhh
[12:34] <chamberlain> incredibly user friendly now
[12:34] <rutreras> sapote   estaras por aqui
[12:34] <test3> really, do you mind if your send me a screenshot of yours
[12:34] <Hasrat_USA> ubuntu is based on debian
[12:34] <Enverex> PriceChild, I just noticed my Karma dropped from over 100,000 to less than 4200. Any ideas why?
[12:34] <test3> Hasrat_USA, like i didn't know
[12:34] <test3> lol
[12:34] <jrib> Enverex: mine did that too if it makes you feel any better :)
[12:34] <PriceChild> Enverex, yes. basically the karma system broke.... it kept rising for people despite them not doing anything
[12:34] <ghatak> Hello, i am getting these errors, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7578/ when i try to run a media player (any, vlc, amarok, audicity etc). i dont know what this means. help please...
[12:34] <PriceChild> Enverex, things were reset
[12:34] <rutreras> alguien me ayuda    como  cambio canal
[12:35] <Enverex> PriceChild, Ah, mine was going up because I was doing stuff, nice to see I lost it all :/
[12:35] <test3> can someone send me a screenshot of their current desktop, thanks
[12:35] <PriceChild> Enverex, you didn't lose it at all... you are now where you "should" be
[12:35] <altoid> has anyone gotten bluetooth running on their vaio on edgy?
[12:35] <feryana> one question guys!  How can I import all the folders / filters and e-mails saved from Evolution from this old pc to the new pc to Evolution also
[12:35] <Enverex> PriceChild, Odd, so either I shoudln't have been getting Karma for some of the stuff I was doing or just very little...
[12:36] <Kazuhiro> Hi all, are there any feisty iso mirrors in Australia I can download it from?
[12:36] <Hasrat_USA> lol test3. and some girls in yahoo chat rooms went crazy when they saw that ignore and broadcast feature in gyachi where the 'b****-be-gone' message appears and they were like omg how can you use voice in gyachi omg lol
[12:36] <Hagane> vox754 i install linuxant via the .deb package  but i cant seem to find the software anywhere
[12:36] <PriceChild> Enverex, Your karma was increasing because of your actions, and because of randomness....
[12:36] <vox754> Hasrat_USA, oh man, you go to your stories to !offtopic. They are nice, but this is just not the appropriate channel.
[12:36] <MybEvil_> hmm
[12:36] <MybEvil_> I installed VLC but it won't work
[12:36] <MybEvil_> it doesn' tplay the video
[12:36] <chamberlain> whats the error
[12:36] <chamberlain> ?
[12:36] <test3> wtf are you talking about?
[12:36] <MybEvil_> no error
[12:36] <Hasrat_USA> what? VLC always work
[12:36] <Hasrat_USA> works
[12:36] <MybEvil_> just doesn't play the video
[12:36] <Enverex> PriceChild, 4200 actions, 99,000 from randomness? damn
[12:36] <vox754> Hagane, I can't help you really with that. That is why you pay money for it.
[12:36] <PriceChild> Enverex, sorry :)
[12:36] <chamberlain> what happens?
[12:36] <uFo-Z> hi all. if i start glxgears or start any gl game for first time after booting, my xserver chrasehs. if i then start it again it works. anybodoy an idea ?
[12:36] <test3> anyone here on #debian? can someone tell them to unban me, i don't know why i got banned, thanks
[12:37] <MybEvil_> I start it up
[12:37] <test3> in*
[12:37] <PriceChild> Enverex, I can forward you the email concerning it if you want?
[12:37] <PriceChild> test3, not in here thankyou
[12:37] <gravemind> MybEvil_ do you have hardware accelleration?
[12:37] <Hagane> vox754 okay thanks
[12:37] <chamberlain> and open the file?
[12:37] <MybEvil_> I don't think
[12:37] <PriceChild> test3, please contact the person who banned you if you really want to get back in
[12:37] <MybEvil_> lol
[12:37] <Hasrat_USA> hmm i have never been there test3 lol let me go and try :P
[12:37] <Enverex> PriceChild, Nah, just wondered what had happened, guess I wasn't being alll that useful, heh
[12:37] <PriceChild> Enverex, I was a bit disappointed too :P
[12:37] <gravemind> try this command "glxinfo | grep rendering"
[12:37] <PriceChild> Hasrat_USA, you will probably just get banned yourself
[12:38] <MybEvil_> gravemind, me?
[12:38] <gravemind> yes
[12:38] <chamberlain> hmm i have to figure out why webmin is being rediculously slow
[12:38] <Enverex> PriceChild, nearly a 100k drop is a bit excessive. It wasn't going up when I was absent, only when I was doing things, meh
[12:38] <MybEvil_> it says: direct rendering: No
[12:38] <gravemind> MybEvil_ it tells you whether your video card is properly set up
[12:38] <MybEvil_> it says: direct rendering: No
[12:38] <uFo-Z> well, it tells me that dr is enabled. but also i got the fauiler : 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b
[12:38] <PriceChild> Enverex, Speak up in #launchpad if you want. Mine also went from many 10s of thousands down to barely 800
[12:38] <gravemind> ah, then there is your problem
[12:38] <Hasrat_USA> holy crap so many people are in the ban list
[12:39] <MybEvil_> lol, mind pointing me to a guide to fix that? :P
[12:39] <MybEvil_> I think I followed one once
[12:39] <l2s> whats the simple command to emulate another user via root?
[12:39] <gravemind> MybEvil_: I'm not sure where it is
[12:39] <MybEvil_> and my visual part of Ubuntu wouldn't load
[12:39] <chamberlain> why use vlc though?  totem-xine is nicer
[12:39] <ksky_> 
[12:39] <chamberlain> in my opinion
[12:39] <Black^Dragon> ok Hasrat_USA  now I'm on the ubuntu box, useing xchat
[12:39] <ingrix> chamberlain: I agree, except I like the xineui the best
[12:39] <MybEvil_> I could only type in the HUGE terminal thing
[12:39] <chamberlain> im not a fan of xineui
[12:40] <gravemind> anybody know where the guide is to get video hardware acceleration?
[12:40] <chamberlain> totem is simpler
[12:40] <PriceChild> !nvidia | gravemind
[12:40] <ubotu> gravemind: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:40] <HP_Vue> sudo apt-get cow
[12:40] <gravemind> VLC is more compatible
[12:40] <ingrix> chamberlain: Yeah.  I guess I am just one for liking flexibility ;)
[12:40] <chamberlain> lol ingrix
[12:40] <chamberlain> if its simple i like it
[12:40] <Kresjah> I know this may sound as a very odd question
[12:40] <chamberlain> like gnome vs kde
[12:40] <gravemind> MybEvil: assuming you have an nvidia card, try that link
[12:40] <ksky_> #ubuntu-cn
[12:40] <gravemind> or ati
[12:40] <ingrix> chamberlain: Kind of.  Oddly enough though, I like gnome much better than KDE
[12:41] <Hasrat_USA> speaking of totem, i have just opened totem and launched a video but i couldn't see anything that can let me change the brightness and contrast, whereas in VLC i can modify the video in many ways during its runtime
[12:41] <chamberlain> same
[12:41] <Xerroz> how can i build an ubuntu base with full debugging symbols?
[12:41] <Hasrat_USA> welcome back Black^Dragon
[12:41] <lufis> Is it true Feisty will be replacing ESD with pulseaudio?
[12:41] <Kresjah> But does any of you happen to have a working kernel module for the mesa mach64 (mach64.ko) from mesa 6.5.1 or 6.5.2?
[12:41] <chamberlain> i dont need features like that hasrat_usa
[12:41] <Black^Dragon> thank you Hasrat_USA
[12:41] <Kazuhiro> So any one know of any australian feisty mirrors?
[12:41] <PriceChild> lufis, not afaik
[12:41] <Hasrat_USA> Black^Dragon: at first open up your console and type sudo apt-get update
[12:41] <Hasrat_USA> then sudo apt-get install kde-desktop
[12:42] <Black^Dragon> main reason I don't use ubuntu so much is my lack of router connections Hasrat_USA
[12:42] <lufis> PriceChild: oh, well update manager just asked me to update the pulseaudio library and this is a clean install of feisty
[12:42] <PriceChild> Kazuhiro, http://www.ubuntu.com/products/GetUbuntu/download?action=show&redirect=download
[12:42] <IndyGunFreak> Black^Dragon: lack of router connections?
[12:42] <PriceChild> lufis, I doubt its a "replacement"... head to #ubuntu+1 for feisty
[12:42] <Hasrat_USA> i aint got no router i'm a home user using a highspeed cable connection 9 MBPS from Time warner cable lol so i don't know much about routers, nor is it supported by my ISP.
[12:42] <lufis> PriceChild: ok
[12:43] <Black^Dragon> only four connections IndyGunFreak , and this is #5
[12:43] <chamberlain> hasrat, who needs it to be supported, just plug it in!
[12:43] <IndyGunFreak> Black^Dragon: ok.. i follow now..
[12:43] <Kazuhiro> PriceChild, there are no fiesty download links on that page
[12:43] <Ademan> wtf? syslogd took over a terminal i left up overnight, what the heck is that about?
[12:43] <lightseed> anyone know where i can get a blender 2.43 package for edgy?
[12:43] <Hasrat_USA> last year i tried to use a router to share connection between my PC and laptop but messed up things prerry much, called time warner cable and they scolded me lol in a mild and indirect way and told me to remove router
[12:43] <Black^Dragon> I tried setting this up wirelss IndyGunFreak , was a complete failure lol
[12:43] <IndyGunFreak> Hasrat_USA: tats pretty risky if you ask me, any always on connection shoudl be behind a hardware firewall/router
[12:43] <PriceChild> Kazuhiro, Oh sorry you want feisty? afaik there are no mirrors... just use the standard ones
[12:43] <PriceChild> Kazuhiro, "official" mirrors at least
[12:43] <IndyGunFreak> Black^Dragon: yea, wireless isn't easy under Linux
[12:43] <chamberlain> i use a wireless router, couldnt live without it
[12:44] <chamberlain> wireless is simple with ndiswrapper
[12:44] <Black^Dragon> I work for my isp Hasrat_USA , Charter communications, and they say they don't support it either
[12:44] <gravemind> chamberlain: assuming you have a compatible card...
[12:44] <chamberlain> ive used it on 2 different cards, and it worked automatically with ndiswrapper
[12:44] <vigrid> hello, i have problems with installing my wireless card (broadcom 4319) on my laptop. could anyone help me?
[12:44] <Black^Dragon> but you just plug one in, and it works
[12:44] <Kazuhiro> PriceChild, yeah none of them seem to have feisty on them
[12:44] <vox754> !43xx
[12:44] <ubotu> Broadcom 43xx driver info here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[12:44] <vigrid> thx vox754
[12:45] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: isn't that what most wireless chipsets are?.. the broadcom?
[12:45] <chamberlain> ndiswrapper really is simple though, in my opinion
[12:45] <MybEvil_> gravemind, I don't believe I have the right card
[12:45] <gravemind> MybEvil: what card do you have?
[12:45] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, I think so. A lot of people with Laptops I guess.
[12:45] <MybEvil_> how would I find out?
[12:45] <IndyGunFreak> chamberlain: i don't know, i see a lot of requests in here for wireless help
[12:45] <Hasrat_USA> IndyGunFreak: and i thought (and also read in one of those ubuntu wikis) that ubuntu does't necessarily require a firewall since access to the system is blocked by default and that it comes with its own security policies and since i'm running the latest 6.20 edgy eft many of the security problems has been fixed and i have updated my system and downloaded necessary patches right after installation
[12:46] <gravemind> MybEvil_: try "lspci"
[12:46] <chamberlain> especially with ndisgtk
[12:46] <redguy> !generic
[12:46] <ubotu> Background to the decision to replace -686, k7 and -smp kernels with -generic can be found here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html (the -386 kernel is still available if needed)
[12:46] <IndyGunFreak> well, to my knowledge edgy is still 6.10, but i still find it silly to use an always on connection w/o a router/firewall
[12:46] <MybEvil_> lol;
[12:46] <chamberlain> indygunfreak, a lot of people also dont know how to setup multimedia, doesnt mean its hard
[12:46] <MybEvil_> what part of that is my card? :P
[12:46] <gravemind> MybEvil_: actually, I don't know if that will work...
[12:46] <redguy> is there a place where ubuntu kernel package flavours are explained?
[12:46] <IndyGunFreak> chamberlain: touche'
[12:46] <chamberlain> thanks
[12:46] <Black^Dragon> ok Hasrat_USA  it's in the process
[12:47] <chamberlain> ive answered it 3 times in the last hour and  ahalf
[12:47] <gopnik> hello
[12:47] <MybEvil_> gravemind, this is what it says: http://pastebin.ca/372336
[12:47] <chamberlain> hello gopnik
[12:47] <Hasrat_USA> good luck dragon. observe the process carefully to see if it gives you any error message.
[12:47] <coredata> Hi
[12:47] <chamberlain> hello coredata
[12:47] <IndyGunFreak> chamberlain: but multimedia, if you read any wiki/instructional, hell if you just search google, you'll get the instrucvtions
[12:47] <chamberlain> same with ndiswrapper, though
[12:47] <Kresjah> But does any of you happen to have a working kernel module for the mesa mach64 (mach64.ko) from mesa 6.5.1 or 6.5.2?
[12:47] <gravemind> anybody: how do you find out what type of graphics card you have? Short of opening the box
[12:47] <gopnik> it's seems the players could not play media from directly from remote source , ex local area connection
[12:47] <coredata> not sure
[12:48] <chamberlain> lspci will tell you gravemind
[12:48] <Black^Dragon> it did Hasrat_USA , couldn't find desktop
[12:48] <onlybui> anyone know if I need to install alternate to get mythtv to work?
[12:48] <Hasrat_USA> if everything goes right, dragon, the word 'kde' would appear in your session list when you log off and try to log back on. KDE will change your linux experience that's for sure
[12:48] <gopnik> anyone know something about this
[12:48] <Hasrat_USA> what exactly do you mean by 'couldn't find desktop'
[12:48] <chamberlain> onlybui, you can install mythtv easily in any setup
[12:48] <gopnik> i mean the .avi
[12:48] <gopnik> ohhh
[12:48] <gopnik> :))
[12:48] <MybEvil_> How could I find out what graphics card I have, w/o looking in the laptop?
[12:48] <MybEvil_> lol
[12:48] <onlybui> im getting depend errors :( for mythtv setup
[12:48] <IndyGunFreak> i still don't know how anyone uses KDE
[12:48] <gopnik> noboby understand
[12:48] <Hasrat_USA> din't you type sudo apt-get update first?
[12:48] <carolyn_> hi guys, i have kind of a nooob question for yas
[12:48] <IndyGunFreak> gopnik: what about avi?
[12:48] <chamberlain> lspci, like weve said a lot, mybevil
[12:49] <eck> MybEvil_: lspci, dmesg, lots of ways
[12:49] <MybEvil_> http://pastebin.ca/372336
[12:49] <Hasrat_USA> you mean you don't like KDE indy? :P
[12:49] <chamberlain> ditto, indygunfreak
[12:49] <eck> probably also reported by xorg
[12:49] <MybEvil_> that's what lspci said
[12:49] <carolyn_> how do you open a .sh file?
[12:49] <akao> MybEvil_ do you have brand/model of the laptop
[12:49] <MybEvil_> Toshiba Satellite I think lol
[12:49] <eck> ugh
[12:49] <eck> how can you use kde?
[12:49] <gravemind> MybEvil_: looks like you have an ATI card. Try following the instructions for ATI on that page... I've never used ATI, though, so I can't really help
[12:49] <chamberlain> its ati of some sort
[12:49] <MybEvil_> k
[12:49] <IndyGunFreak> i'd rather learn CLI than use KDE
[12:49] <gopnik> IndyGunFreak i'm trying to play remote media .avi and the players could not play, but local .avi can play
[12:49] <chamberlain> hahah indygunfreak
[12:50] <Black^Dragon> yes Hasrat_USA , but it says E: Couldn't find package desktop Hasrat_USA
[12:50] <IndyGunFreak> xfce is ok
[12:50] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, I like KDE, I think it is fresh. However with Ubuntu I use GNOME because I don't want to install things, just work right away.
[12:50] <chamberlain> xfce is simple like gnome, which i like
[12:50] <gravemind> I heard rumors that KDE crashes all the time and kills babies
[12:50] <IndyGunFreak> kde looks like something my nephew scribbled on a notepad
[12:50] <IndyGunFreak> gravemind: i don't know about the kill babies part..lol
[12:50] <chamberlain> hahaha kde is really rediculous
[12:50] <feryana_> hi
[12:50] <chamberlain> hello feryana
[12:51] <Daveyboy> hey
[12:51] <MybEvil_> Any chance this will screw up my Ubuntu? lol
[12:51] <carolyn_> hey guys, i have an 'easy question' for you, how do you open a .sh file?
[12:51] <Hasrat_USA> kde hasn't crashed on me yet. i have been running KDE for almost 23 and half hours only to check out its stability
[12:51] <eck> carolyn_: vi :-)
[12:51] <IndyGunFreak> MybEvil_: what?
[12:51] <onlybui> ./name.sh
[12:51] <chamberlain> carolyn, do you want to edit it or run it
[12:51] <carolyn_> run it
[12:51] <MybEvil_> The graphics thing
[12:51] <chamberlain> then ./file.sh
[12:51] <eck> run it with bash
[12:51] <feryana_> why can't I copy the file .evolution to a cd or a flash drive to copy it to other pc? it gives me errors the whole time
[12:51] <IndyGunFreak> MybEvil_: what graphics thing/
[12:51] <chamberlain> or sh file.sh
[12:51] <eck> e.g. bash foo.sh
[12:51] <Hasrat_USA> but you have to take it into your consideration that i'm on an AMD Athlon dual core 64 bit 3800+ with a GB of DDR RAM
[12:51] <carolyn_> i'll give it a shot
[12:51] <SpAwN> kde has never totaly crashed on me in over 3 years.
[12:52] <Hasrat_USA> dragon ummm
[12:52] <chamberlain> its ugly though, spawn
[12:52] <MybEvil_>  hardware accelleration
[12:52] <Hasrat_USA> way to go SpAwN:)
[12:52] <SpAwN> chamberlain, to each there own
[12:52] <feryana> I opened it double lol
[12:52] <IndyGunFreak> SpAwN: i do agree with that KDE is probably just as stable4 as Gnome(maybe a little slower)
[12:52] <feryana> why can't I copy the file .evolution to a cd or a flash drive to copy it to other pc? it gives me errors the whole time
[12:52] <chamberlain> i suppose, spawn
[12:52] <IndyGunFreak> i've never had problems with any of the GUI's
[12:52] <SpAwN> i just hate gnome with a passion.
[12:52] <bruenig> feryana, those errors being?
[12:52] <onlybui> anyone know how to change my download for mythtv using synaptic?
[12:52] <MybEvil_> IndyGunFreak: hardware accelleration
[12:52] <Black^Dragon> wonder if it will be available if I restart Hasrat_USA ??
[12:52] <chamberlain> why do you need to copy feryana?
[12:52] <gopnik> the error is: there is no input plugin available at this time to handle smb://172.15.1.45/film.avi Maybe MRL syntax is wrong or file/stream source doesn't exists
[12:52] <SpAwN> but i dont use either gnome or kde.
[12:52] <eck> well i hate kde with a passion, so there you go :-)
[12:52] <chamberlain> copy .evolution i mean
[12:52] <IndyGunFreak> MybEvil_: i never had much luck with it... YMMV
[12:52] <Hasrat_USA> dragon yes let's do that and run the commands again
[12:52] <l2s> any ubuntu admins avail for a freelance gig?
[12:52] <eck> kde is like gnome, but has a worse ui and worse apps
[12:53] <MybEvil_> YMMV?
[12:53] <feryana> Error "Invalid parameters" while copying "/home/fery..._P1_08.jpg".
[12:53] <HolyGoat> Any firewall/iptables helper application you guys prefer?
[12:53] <IndyGunFreak> MybEvil_: you're mileage may vary
[12:53] <SpAwN> eck, see i use way more kde apps then gnome apps...
[12:53] <IndyGunFreak> actually, should be your
[12:53] <MybEvil_> I tried it once
[12:53] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, I think KDE started before GNOME but now they can be considered parallel.
[12:53] <feryana> chamberlin to transfer my mail filters and folders to other evolution
[12:53] <akao> i doubt either KDE or Gnome warrant enough passion to hate either
[12:53] <MybEvil_> and I couldn't use the graphics part of ubuntu
[12:53] <SpAwN> and i prefer the stylings of kde over gnome.
[12:53] <carolyn_> it worked guys, thanks a lot
[12:53] <chamberlain> what are you trying to do, feryana?
[12:53] <Hasrat_USA> dragon hold on
[12:53] <chamberlain> no problem carolyn
[12:53] <Hasrat_USA> are you still here?
[12:53] <feryana> chamberlain to transfer my mail filters and folders to other evolution
[12:53] <MybEvil_> only the big terminal part lol
[12:53] <MybEvil_> I just reinstalled it from the live CD
[12:53] <MybEvil_> when that hapend
[12:53] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: yeah, i'm pretty sure KDE was first
[12:53] <puff> Evening, anybody good with ipods, gtkpod, amarok?
[12:53] <chamberlain> ok feryana, maybe try it as root?  dont really know
[12:53] <Black^Dragon> ok, will give it a try, brb
[12:54] <chamberlain> puff, i use gtkpod
[12:54] <akao> sorry puff
[12:54] <overcl0ck> Control Center --> "Appearance & Themes" ---> Select "Splash Screen" ---> Click "Add..." ---> Browse for the downloaded file... when I try to browse the file there is no file there, but if I look inside the directory the splash file is there, can u help me please??
[12:54] <SpAwN> puff, gtkpod works very good for me...i have a 5th gen ipod
[12:54] <IndyGunFreak> Enlightenment, is another GUI i can't figure out
[12:54] <puff> amarok and gtkpod are fighting over my ipod, I'm about ready to give up and reformat it.
[12:54] <chamberlain> are you using feisty, overclock?
[12:54] <SkippyX> Wow - many differences between Edgy & Breezy
[12:54] <puff> I have an 8gb ipod nano.
[12:54] <SkippyX> Man.
[12:54] <Hasrat_USA> oh crap dragon left
[12:54] <puff> I'm on ubuntu dapper.
[12:54] <overcl0ck> chamberlain,  yes I am
[12:54] <IndyGunFreak> puff, that woul be silly
[12:54] <GMWeezel> How can I uninstall libsound2 without killing everything that uses it so I can compile a newer version?
[12:54] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, by the way, totally offtopic. Do you know if it is possible to use GIMP to make circles and basic paint stuff. I can't do a thing!
[12:54] <Hasrat_USA> i have 30 GB ipod but i think the girl i slept with last month stole it :(
[12:54] <chamberlain> there is a specific irc for feisty, #ubuntu+1 i think
[12:55] <SpAwN> vox754, gimp will do that and ALOT more
[12:55] <SkippyX> Is this a help channel? Its the default login for XChat
[12:55] <Hasrat_USA> there are lots of problems when you mingle with poor girls
[12:55] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: hmm, i don't know... i usually only use it for resizing digital photos i take.
[12:55] <daviey> SkippyX, yes
[12:55] <chamberlain> yupp it is skippyx
[12:55] <chamberlain> whats the problem?
[12:55] <eck> all of the qt apps are kde specific
[12:55] <l2s> chamberlain do you know where to get a freelance ubuntu admin for a small freelance gig?
[12:55] <puff> I was using gtkpod, used it to set up my nano, it's the latest model nano so it has tht encrypted firmware crap, so I've never managed to get playlists set up.
[12:55] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: isn't KPaint a program more like MS Paint.. mayube thats what you want?
[12:55] <Xerroz> how do you build an ubuntu base from scratch?
[12:56] <SkippyX> OK - kewl. No problems yet. Just finished a fresh install (edgy) on a friend's machine. I use Breezy at home and I'm surprised at some of the differences.
[12:56] <vox754> SpAwN, IndyGunFreak, Yeah, something like trimming and cropping, but circles? where are the circles?!
[12:56] <ardchoille> vox754: I can say that gimp is quite powerful: http://www.gimp.org/tutorials/
[12:56] <chamberlain> l2s, where do you live?  you might be able to find someone by telling them where :P
[12:56] <Hagane> vox754 how do I uninstall a driver in ubuntu
[12:56] <SkippyX> Gotta configure this thing - and that'll take the better part of the night.
[12:56] <l2s> ah
[12:56] <l2s> los angeles
[12:56] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: what about KPaint?
[12:56] <l2s> but remote is fine as well
[12:56] <puff> So I eventually tried amarok, which still didn't work for playlists, but I kept using it for putting sogns onto/off of my nano.
[12:56] <visik7> anyone got linux deleted by vista ?
[12:56] <vox754> Hagane, which driver. I guess you don't have to, just don't "load" it.
[12:56] <chamberlain> what are you doing l2s?
[12:56] <l2s> setting up a fresh ubuntu box as a server for rails and php
[12:57] <llol> does  anyone here have some experience in setting up raid?
[12:57] <chamberlain> but what do you need an admin for?
[12:57] <l2s> there is a big bug in ubuntu server so that wont install on this dell
[12:57] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, for GNOME KPaint? I just want to make a big nice round red circle !!!
[12:57] <Hagane> vox754 my wifi driver.. blacklisting it didnt work.. im still connected to the intarweb
[12:57] <l2s> setting up teh box chamberlain
[12:57] <llol> i followed the steps on a setup and i get grub error 17
[12:57] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: you can still install Kpaint.. just search it in the repos.
[12:57] <Hagane> vox754 how do I unload?
[12:57] <chamberlain> you probably wont be able to find someone to come do if for you, unfortunately l2s
[12:58] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: i'm not sure, there has to be a way to make a circle in Gimp,
[12:58] <puff> And now something weird seems to be going on with amarok, where it can't seem to remove files from the ipod.
[12:58] <IndyGunFreak> you could try gimp tutorials
[12:58] <llol> if my sata drive has the /boot    /dev/sda1
[12:58] <vox754> Hagane, "sudo modprobe -r <modulename>" or "sudo rmmod <module>"
[12:58] <chamberlain> try openoffice draw for that kind of stuff
[12:58] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, circles!!!
[12:58] <llol> how is it supposed to be in the menu.lst?
[12:59] <IndyGunFreak> vox754: hold on, i'm checking Kpaint
[12:59] <phewl> hey is there another mirror for automatix because it wont connect for me
[12:59] <AMD-> hi
[12:59] <Hasrat_USA> lol
[12:59] <chamberlain> i wouldnt reccomend automatix at all, phewl
[12:59] <phewl> why
[12:59] <akao> Is there a place to download ms fonts other than automatix?
[12:59] <phewl> its worked many a time before for me
[12:59] <ardchoille> !automatix | phewl
[12:59] <ubotu> phewl: 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
[12:59] <chamberlain> its not very well made, in my opinion
[01:00] <puff> l2s:  Setting up php should be ridiculously straightforward, rails Idaknow about, I took a quick look a few months ago but it wasn't immediately obvious and I didn't have any time to read up on it.
[01:00] <l2s> ill try somewhere else thanks
[01:00] <Hasrat_USA> automatix can automatixalky phuckomatix your OS phewl
[01:00] <puff> l2s:  You might be better off asking in a) #apache, b) #ruby
[01:00] <kupesoft> akao: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Microsoft%20Fonts
[01:00] <phewl> haha
[01:00] <l2s> puff i just want it done right and secure
[01:00] <puff> l2s: Yeah, I know the feeling.  Hm, LA.
[01:00] <phewl> is there another script like it or just the old fasioned way:)?
[01:00] <akao> kupesoft: thanks
[01:00] <l2s> ill post to the job boards maybe that will help
[01:00] <puff> I know some LA geeks but they're not online right now.
[01:00] <chamberlain> phewl, there are lots of tutorials, check out http://www.ubuntuguide.org it will explain how to do most things
[01:01] <ph03n1xs74r> how can i get started in the documents of ubuntu?
[01:01] <Hagane> vox754 does that unload it once or forever?
[01:01] <chamberlain> documents?
[01:01] <SkippyX> OK - if automatix risks breaking things....and easyubuntu risks breaking things...what todo? unofficial ubuntu starter guide?
[01:01] <Hasrat_USA> who needs stuffs like automatix or easyubuntu when we have synaptics? synaptics is like CNR (click N Run)
[01:01] <ph03n1xs74r> (i want to help in the doc books)
[01:01] <Hagane> vox754 how do i reload if i need to?
[01:01] <jrib> SkippyX: there is official documentation too at help.ubuntu.com
[01:01] <SkippyX> And the wiki?
[01:01] <chamberlain> ubuntuguide.org is very reliable, it shoudlnt be unofficial
[01:01] <vox754> Hagane, once. You need it again "sudo modprobe <module>"
[01:01] <MybEvil_> grr
[01:01] <Hasrat_USA> i'm back to AntiTrust
[01:02] <AMD-> jrib: how do i get to that channel
[01:02] <MybEvil_> what was that site for Hardware Acceleration again?
[01:02] <skirk> I write in Session a bad command and now i cant start on GNOME, did you know a file about this...can I change with terminal?
[01:02] <acid_phyre> does anyone know a good program to copy personal dvds?
[01:02] <MybEvil_> I had to restart
[01:02] <AMD-> #ubuntu what ?
[01:02] <jrib> AMD-: /join #ubuntu-classroom
[01:02] <puff> SpAwN, chamberlain, IndyGunFreak, any suggestions?
[01:02] <Hagane> vox754 thanks
[01:02] <sgentry6> hardware question:I have a Netgear WG111US (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/NetgearWG111).  lspci does not show it in the list, yet dmesg shows all of my actions (/etc/init.d/networking restart), unplugging, plugging in, etc...  I'm still having trouble connecting to my access point, WEP is on, and dhcp is working to all the other devices, but not for this one, can anyone help
[01:02] <AMD-> thanks
[01:02] <chamberlain> whats the question puff?
[01:02] <IndyGunFreak> puff: ?
[01:02] <l2s> btw there is a bad bug in ubuntu server - goes haywire on dell perc 2
[01:02] <reuben> ingrix you there?
[01:02] <phewl> and i got another question, why doesn't ubuntu recognize any of my other two drives, one a linux partition adn the other windows, it only shows this ubuntu drive
[01:02] <l2s> edgy desktop installs but server goes bananas
[01:03] <puff> chamberlain:  Well, amarok  doesn't seem to be able to delete files from my ipod.
[01:03] <phewl> er nvm
[01:03] <phewl> figured it out
[01:03] <skirk> I write in Session a bad command and now i cant start on GNOME, did you know a file about this...can I change with terminal?
[01:03] <vox754> Hagane, all modules are loaded on startup, so If you blacklist it, it won't load. I hope I'm not confusing you.
[01:03] <chamberlain> sgentry, is it installed in ubuntu yet?>
[01:03] <tony__> hello
[01:03] <acid_phyre> does anyone know a good program for copting personal dvds?
[01:03] <Cooner750_> Hello
[01:03] <sgentry6> chamberlain: not positive (I can run iwconfig and see it that way (wlan0)), so I would assume yes
[01:04] <Cooner750_> I am running in the LiveCD and trying to install Ubuntu to an external hard disk, USB
[01:04] <ph03n1xs74r> gpg code... i set up my gpg code, how do i verify the key?
[01:04] <reuben> question: I've downloaded the beryl tar.gz.....what now?
[01:04] <chamberlain> ok, have you gone to networking and double click on it to enable it?
[01:04] <sgentry6> it also shows in system settings: network devices
[01:04] <Shrimpy1> hello can anyone help me install the graphics card for intel so i can adjust my resolutions
[01:04] <puff> chamberlain: amarok comes up when I plug in my ipod,  when I run gtkpod it takes 20-30 minutes fixing checksums, then anything I try to do after that, it warns me that I haven't imported the itunesdb, but I see no menu option with any word resembling "import"
[01:04] <chamberlain> no idea puff, sorry
[01:04] <techi2> Can anybody compare systemrescue versus magic partition for creating partition within same hardrive for ubuntu and other os ?
[01:05] <Cooner750_> The installer failed because it said there was "an error creating the ext3" partition. Now when I double-click the Install icon, it does nothing. How can I get it to come back up? Other than restarting because that takes WAY too long.

[01:08] <lsutiger> ummm...IRC program for linux?
[01:08] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: i did the xserver thinkgy and i messed it up really bad. got fustrated and re-intstalled ubuntu
[01:08] <chamberlain> sorry cooner a lot of people need help

[01:08] <chamberlain> no problem
[01:08] <skirk> I have a problem with "Session", I have add a command in startup GNOME, but now GNOME dont start...how I can fix it????
[01:08] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: did i send you that xserver instruction earlier?
[01:08] <ardchoille> HolyGoat: Same here :)
[01:08] <gyaresu> Cooner750_: People probably just don't know the answer.
[01:08] <jwatt> hi
[01:09] <chamberlain> hey
[01:09] <HolyGoat> ardchoille :)
[01:09] <puff> chamberlain:  How do you normally "import the itunesdb" in gtkpod?
[01:09] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: yes you did.   but it said incorrect information and would go to a black screen with a blinking cursor.   could not type commands
[01:09] <Agent_007> linux revolution become true!
[01:09] <chamberlain> it should do it automatically
[01:09] <chamberlain> puff
[01:09] <jwatt> from a quick look at ubuntu.com it's not immediately clear where to find the name of particular maintainers
[01:09] <gyaresu> Cooner750_: You are trying to install ubuntu onto an external usb disk. It couldn't create the ext3 filesystem and now its bjorked. Right?
[01:09] <jwatt> is there a page for that?
[01:09] <skirk> I have a problem with "Session", I have add a command in startup GNOME, but now GNOME dont start...how I can fix it????
[01:09] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: sorry, as you can see by the thread i sent you, it worked perfectly for me
[01:09] <Cooner750_> gyaresu: The install program will not start again
[01:09] <Mangix> what's the Linux equivelent to ctrl + alt + delete?
[01:09] <quaal> does anyone know how to set firefox to open thunderbird email when you click on an email address
[01:09] <gyaresu> Cooner750_: Right.
[01:10] <Mangix> i got a program that i can't kill
[01:10] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: can you send it once again?
[01:10] <Cooner750_> Unless I restart, which takes way too long for a LiveCD
[01:10] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: are you still stuck in 640x480?
[01:10] <MybEvil_> What was the site for the tutorial for setting up the 'glxinfo | grep rendering' thing, making it say 'yes' insetead of 'no'?
[01:10] <chamberlain> there isnt on mangix, go to system>administration>system monitor
[01:10] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: i can, but i don't want you to get screwed trwice..lol
[01:10] <Shrimpy1> no its 1024x780
[01:10] <jwatt> I'd like to make contact with the firefox maintainer in particular
[01:10] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: so whats the prob?
[01:10] <gyaresu> Cooner750_: So can you possibly swap the external drive into the machine to do the install or are you trying to make a USB external drive version of ubuntu?
[01:10] <ph03n1xs74r> i need help verifying my gpg key
[01:10] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: i can't chage the resolution to fit my screen (1280x800)
[01:11] <Mangix> i can't kill it
[01:11] <Cooner750_> Does Ubuntu support running from an external USB drive or not?
[01:11] <Cooner750_> Debian does.
[01:11] <profoX`> I am looking for the official (if there is one) packaging guide to package Ubuntu packages? (cq the "right way" to do it, not checkinstall)
[01:11] <chamberlain> why not
[01:11] <Mangix> nvm
[01:11] <Mangix> i did
[01:11] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: i see
[01:11] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: so everything is big and goofy
[01:11] <chamberlain> ok mangix
[01:11] <Mangix> ty
[01:11] <vox754> Cooner750_, it does, you need a BIOS that boots on USB.
[01:11] <Mangix> also
[01:11] <chamberlain> np
[01:11] <rkyraccoon55> !sound
[01:11] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[01:11] <Mangix> where is the GRUB conf file located?
[01:11] <profoX`> Cooner750_: yes Ubuntu should support that, I haven't tried it myself though, but I don't see why not
[01:11] <Cooner750_> Erm.... Then how does Debian work just using GRUB, booting from a USB drive?
[01:12] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: i think if yo send that forum i am going to look at it and see what i did wrong
[01:12] <gyaresu> Cooner750_: Your BIOS needs to be able to look to the external drive...
[01:12] <chamberlain> whats the problem, it wont enter
[01:12] <bruenig> Mangix, /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:12] <Mangix> ty
[01:12] <chamberlain> i kept typing /boot/grub/menu.lst and it wouldnt send
[01:12] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: hang on, i'll find you the link agian
[01:12] <Cooner750_> gyaresu: Apparently it can, because Debian (Which I know Ubuntu is based on) can boot from USB
[01:12] <gyaresu> Cooner750_: Otherwise you need a boot disk to then point it at the usb drive
[01:12] <Agent_007> ubuntu blow the bit !
[01:12] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: thanks
[01:12] <MybEvil_> Can someone point me to seting up Hardware Acceleration, with a ATI graphics card?
[01:12] <nanotube> why my PAM modules works differently for terminal login and for gdm login?
[01:13] <Cooner750_> I cannot get GParted to unmount a fat32 partition on the external drive
[01:13] <puff> chamberlain: Okay, any suggestions on reformatting my nano, starting from scratch?
[01:13] <chamberlain> windows
[01:13] <gyaresu> Cooner750_: YES. With an enabled BIOS (or a boot disk). It's not run by magic fairies.
[01:13] <djmccormick> i have a tutorial probably not written for ubuntu specifically and it's asking me to do: chmod g+wS
[01:13] <chamberlain> i dont think you can format them in linux, unfortunately
[01:13] <djmccormick> what is the equivalent with ubuntu's setup?
[01:13] <chamberlain> youll need itunes
[01:13] <gyaresu> Cooner750_: If the machine you want to boot the USB drive has grub installed then that's also fine.
[01:13] <reuben> sorry dropped connetion
[01:13] <Cooner750_> I figured this version of Ubuntu would be better, but it's still the same as every other version
[01:14] <Cooner750_> Installer still wont start
[01:14] <chamberlain> cooner theres a lot of features you cant see
[01:14] <chamberlain> or maybe you dont use
[01:14] <gyaresu> Cooner750_: If it's some random windows machine that's 4 years old without the BOOT OPTION: USB/Other Device then probably not.

[01:14] <chamberlain> ok, is ubotu automatic?
[01:15] <chamberlain> wow it is
[01:15] <Shrimpy1> just throwing this out there ubuntu is amazing with support and if people knew about their support survice then it would make everybody look bad
[01:15] <Cooner750_> gyaresu: I already told you that this machine can boot from USB

[01:15] <carolyn_> hi guys, i'm back with another question, i have a portable hard drive plugged in, and it wont let me put any files on it because it says its read only :(?!
[01:15] <IndyGunFreak> jus tdo so at your own peril
[01:15] <chamberlain> carolyn, is it formatted with ntfs?
[01:15] <profoX`> !tell rkyraccoon55 ask
[01:15] <carolyn_> um
[01:15] <gyaresu> Cooner750_: Can you just physically install the USB drive into any machine so as to get it installed?
[01:16] <carolyn_> i dunno
[01:16] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: yeah i'm going to no command anything
[01:16] <chamberlain> carolyn, did you format it in windows xp?
[01:16] <profoX`> err..
[01:16] <profoX`> !ask
[01:16] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:16] <rkyraccoon55> Profox: i went to the links provided by ubotu and it didnt help my problem
[01:16] <carolyn_> well, its an older one of my dads i grabbed outta the basement, so i dont know
[01:16] <gyaresu> Cooner750_: Without log files on why the ext3 filesystem couldn't be written I can't really help you.
[01:16] <Cooner750_> gyaresu: Er... this is not an internal drive inside an enclosure
[01:16] <ardchoille> quaal: That is usually set when you set your default email client. Open System -> Preferences -> Preferred Applications and see what's in the Mail reader command box.
[01:16] <chamberlain> carolyn, it is possible that it is ntfs, with whcih linux only has read support
[01:16] <GMWeezel> How can I uninstall a package and make apt believe it is still there so I don't remove the apps that use it?
[01:16] <gyaresu> Cooner750_: What is it then?
[01:16] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: yeah i'm going to not cgoing to do that because i get retareed and just hit enter
[01:17] <gyaresu> Cooner750_: USB Stick?
[01:17] <carolyn_> so, how would i reformat it to something usable?
[01:17] <reuben> chamberlain regarding the beryl install...i need some help
[01:17] <profoX`> rkyraccoon55: yes, but how can we help you if you don't tell which problem you are having, or if you already said it, can you repeat, because i didn't read it

[01:17] <carolyn_> k...
[01:17] <chamberlain> and i dont know bout beryl, reuben, sorry
[01:18] <gyaresu> Cooner750_: One of the ones with the pretty enclosure and the 'single touch backup' button?
[01:18] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: hey, i have an xconfig file that my friend sent me (which had the same problem) and before he just switched them or changed something. know anything babout that
[01:18] <profoX`> rkyraccoon55: and is the sound just not coming out of your speakers, or do you also get an error...... does the screen say your music is playing?
[01:18] <Cooner750_> gyaresu: Actually this one is a few years old. No one touch backup
[01:18] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: no clue
[01:18] <rkyraccoon55> Profox: i have a Creative Labs SOund Blaster Audigy 2 value
[01:18] <jrib> walrus: the people at ##c++ may have better suggestions
[01:18] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak:
[01:18] <carolyn_> yea, there isnt any partition button....
[01:18] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: ok thanks anyways
[01:18] <gyaresu> Cooner750_: But same deal. You can't remove it from the enclosure?
[01:18] <Daveyboy[A] > any idea why i whne i go to "localhost/phpmyadmin" it prompts me to specify which program to open the phtml file in?
[01:18] <reuben> chamberlain how do i install a downloaded package ...it's in tar.gz form.....i'm absolutely new at linux
[01:18] <rkyraccoon55> Profox': I get no error, the music is playing, just no sound
[01:18] <walrus> jrib, oh thx :):) sorry btw ...
[01:18] <chamberlain> carolyn, im on windows, cant remember the name
[01:18] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: know anything else i can try?
[01:19] <rkyraccoon55> Profox': on my windows hd the sound works fine
[01:19] <chamberlain> look around it might be gparted
[01:19] <Cooner750_> gyaresu: Considering there's other stuff on there I wouldnt particularly want to risk it
[01:19] <d4d4d4d4> when i try to launch full screen apps my screen is split in two how can i fix it please?
[01:19] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: other than manually making your icons smaller?..lol
[01:19] <profoX`> rkyraccoon55: well, first check alsamixer to see if nothing is Muted and if all sliders are open
[01:19] <gyaresu> Cooner750_: ?
[01:19] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: that might take a while
[01:19] <chamberlain> reuben, follow the tutorial at http://www.ubuntuguide.org, it installs them from .deb which is easier
[01:19] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: but it made me laugh!
[01:19] <rkyraccoon55> profox': i did that, everything is good
[01:19] <reuben> ok
[01:19] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: what time of video card do you have again?
[01:19] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: it did me to..lol
[01:19] <carolyn_> hrm.. well, that doesnt help me much does it chamberlain
[01:19] <GionnyBoss> I added an application in System -> Preference -> Sessions, but now GNOME doesn't start anymore. Where can I find the configuration file to fix it, please?
[01:20] <chamberlain> one sec ill dig up a screenshot
[01:20] <profoX`> rkyraccoon55: and do you hear other sounds? (in other audio players, with other audio files...)
[01:20] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: its an intel express graphics
[01:20] <gyaresu> Cooner750_: I just asked you about the drive. You are telling me that you don't want to risk the data on the drive even though you just tryed installing to it? Did you run a partitioner on the drive?
[01:20] <IndyGunFreak> hmm,
[01:20] <Black^Dragon> well that didn't work
[01:20] <quaal> ardchoille, thanks that was it
[01:20] <chamberlain> oh i forgot to tell you to install gparted, carolyn
[01:20] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: i'm on a dell untill i can save up and buy an IBM
[01:20] <Black^Dragon> no worries, I'll figure it out
[01:20] <chamberlain> you can do that in synaptic
[01:21] <tsb> How do you search for a file in a package? I want to find 'syncml-obex-client'
[01:21] <marco__> srv azzurra.org
[01:21] <carolyn_> ok, i'll look it up
[01:21] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: build your own, you'll be happier
[01:21] <chamberlain> then it will appear in system>administration
[01:21] <Cooner750_> gyaresu: I'm trying to figure out why Ubuntu does not just use a simple Install CD like Debian does, with no X system
[01:21] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: well i do for desktops, but i am converting to laptop
[01:21] <rkyraccoon55> profox': no
[01:21] <chamberlain> cooner, it does supply an alternate cd for that reason
[01:22] <Cooner750_> Graphical installer never has worked righjt
[01:22] <Cooner750_> right
[01:22] <genii> Yes, the alternate install cd or the server cd does a cli only install
[01:22] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: and i have no clue where to start on barbone laptops
[01:22] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: i see
[01:22] <gyaresu> Cooner750_: You complain about not getting help and then you just throw random statements and whinging into the channel. I'm not helping you till you go get some fresh air and come back with a healthier perspective. Sorry.
[01:22] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: me either..lol
[01:22] <rkyraccoon55> profox': as far as my limited view can see everything is working well except the sound not coming out
[01:23] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: i know HP computers are pretty good with linux but i like IBM becasue they are hardcore with computer
[01:23] <chamberlain> i personally use an old 866 mHz p3 :P
[01:23] <ingodonots> hi guys
[01:23] <GionnyBoss> I added an application in System -> Preference -> Sessions, but now GNOME doesn't start anymore. Where can I find the configuration file to fix it, please?
[01:23] <profoX`> rkyraccoon55: can you go to System -> Preferences -> Sound, and click on the Test button in the Devices tab (the first tab, its selected by default)
[01:23] <ingodonots> i've lot of problems with cervisia
[01:24] <ingodonots> i add the repo ad i do the login (i use pserver)
[01:24] <chamberlain> hi ingodnots
[01:24] <profoX`> rkyraccoon55: the two first test buttons
[01:24] <ingodonots> hi chamberlain, but when I try to do the update i get some errors
[01:24] <ingodonots> like this:
[01:24] <ingodonots> cvs checkout: CVSROOT must be an absolute pathname (not `')
[01:24] <rkyraccoon55> profox': got nothing either one
[01:24] <chamberlain> pardon, ingodonots?
[01:24] <Keyseir> How do I check what my computers IP on the LAN is?
[01:25] <chamberlain> ummm, whoami i believe
[01:25] <gyaresu> Keyseir: terminal: 'ifconfig'
[01:25] <chamberlain> no iwconfig
[01:25] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: not to mention, HP is absolute junk
[01:25] <chamberlain> or ifconfig ...
[01:25] <Keyseir> gyaresu, thanks
[01:25] <ingodonots> anyone can help me with cervisia?
[01:26] <profoX`> rkyraccoon55: thats pretty strange..
[01:26] <rkyraccoon55> profox': yea, i know
[01:26] <Keyseir> gyaresu, How do I tell which numbers are my local address?
[01:26] <profoX`> rkyraccoon55: did you create a new user account along the way?
[01:26] <profoX`> rkyraccoon55: has sound worked once?
[01:26] <rkyraccoon55> profox': no
[01:27] <profoX`> rkyraccoon55: does sound work on the login screen? (you normally hear some sort of drums)
[01:27] <rkyraccoon55> profox': nope
[01:27] <gyaresu> Keyseir: something like 192.168.1.100
[01:27] <Keyseir> gyaresu, thanks
[01:27] <b1shop> anyone have directv?  is it down?
[01:27] <gyaresu> Keyseir: Plugged in via the network cable?
[01:27] <b1shop> ot i know...
[01:28] <Frogzoo> Keyseir: talk to your netadmin - usually 10.x.x.x. 172.x.x.x & 192.168.x.x
[01:28] <profoX`> rkyraccoon55: in that case the problem lies deeper than I initially thought...... your system thinks music can be played but for some reason you don't hear music... are you _sure_ every slider is at its maximum and nothing is muted?
[01:28] <gyaresu> Keyseir: inet addr:192.168.1.4  Bcast:192.168.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
[01:28] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: yeah lol
[01:28] <IndyGunFreak> :)
[01:28] <rkyraccoon55> yep
[01:28] <Keyseir> gyaresu, Yes. Plugged into a router via ethernet. Trying to figure out which number this machine is so I can forward some bt stuff.
[01:28] <techi1> Question. Can anybody help me on the following scenario: I have 55 gig in my windows xp with 24 gigs free. When I partition my existing computer to accomodate Ubuntu, the installer gnome editor will help me create the ubuntu partition. Here is where I get lost. Is the editor partitioning the 55 gig or the 24 gig extra space and have, and how do I insure that the extra space is the one used and not my already 31 gigs use
[01:28] <profoX`> rkyraccoon55: well then I'm really out of ideas, I'm sorry....
[01:28] <Keyseir> gyaresu, I'm good now. Thanks.
[01:28] <chamberlain> techi1, have you resized the partition yet?
[01:29] <raf256> is user eagles0513875 banned?
[01:29] <gyaresu> Keyseir: You may want to set your IP statically then. Otherwise you may get a different IP next time. FYI.
[01:29] <carolyn_> ok, i got gparted installed and running, and it says it cannot find the mount point, and it wont let me repartition it at all
[01:29] <lufis> rkyraccoon55: it could be an issue of what apps are outputting to. I had that issue. make sure it's outputting to alsa or whatever you're using
[01:29] <techi1> chamberlain:not yet because of the question I just asked. Concerned about messing up
[01:29] <rkyraccoon55> profox': wait, the master isnt muted but some others are, how do you unmute =?
[01:29] <lufis> rkyraccoon55: go to system > prefs > sound and make sure
[01:29] <chamberlain> what does it say exactly carolyn?
[01:29] <profoX`> rkyraccoon55: press the M button in alsamixer
[01:29] <techi1> chamberlain:I found the gnome editor that will partition it for me but first I must highlight my 55gig
[01:30] <stutsman> OKay for those of you who remember me from yesterday: I was able to set up a dual boot situation with Windows XP on one drive and Ubunu on the other... now I'm COMPLETELY new to ubuntu and Linux... is there a way I can get ubuntu to allow me to access my windows hard drive so that I can play mp3s from that drive or access other files from that drive?
[01:30] <chamberlain> and you selected resize?
[01:30] <carolyn_> unable to find mount point, and that it is ntfs, and that there are 223 gb free
[01:30] <blackest> hurrah got mythtv setup and working with remote frontend (backend edgy ) frontend (dapper) :)
[01:30] <carolyn_> but all the options are greyed out to do anything
[01:30] <vox754> carolyn_, before I go take a look at these examples http://img505.imageshack.us/img505/2340/part01sa3.png
[01:30] <techi1>  chamberlain not yet
[01:30] <rkyraccoon55> profox': still nothing
[01:30] <vox754> carolyn_, http://img525.imageshack.us/img525/5581/part11lo2.png
[01:30] <techi1> what do i resize to? and what am I resizing? the 55 gig?
[01:31] <techi1> or the extra space (the 24 gig)
[01:31] <chamberlain> ok, ummm carolyn, what are your options when you right click
[01:31] <blackest> stutsman ntfs or fat32
[01:31] <vox754> techi1, look at my examples above
[01:31] <lufis> rkyraccoon55: is your soundcard using alsa?
[01:31] <stutsman> I believe the windows drive is ntfs
[01:31] <Frogzoo> techi1: please don't use the ubuntu version of gparted to resize ntfs partitions - you can lose all your data - at the very least, make sure you have a working copy of your data
[01:31] <chamberlain> and techi, you have to resize it so change the 24 extra gigs to unformatted, to create a new partition
[01:31] <rkyraccoon55> lufis: it should be
[01:31] <lufis> rkyraccoon55: did you check in sound prefs to see what it was set to?
[01:31] <rkyraccoon55> lufis: its a Sound Blaster Audigy 2
[01:32] <techi1> vox754going there to look
[01:32] <lufis> rkyraccoon55: if it's playing system sounds but not anything else it sounds like there's a config problem with gnome
[01:32] <chamberlain> frogzoo, i told him earlier to make sure he had an install disk handy
[01:32] <carolyn_> right click lets me unmount, manage flags, and information
[01:32] <chamberlain> unmount it
[01:32] <rkyraccoon55> lufis: its not playing system sounds
[01:32] <carolyn_> ok
[01:32] <chamberlain> first of all
[01:32] <blackest> well ntfs is a bit tricky and will be read only i kept windows on fat32 and the drive is automagically on my desktop
[01:32] <rkyraccoon55> lufis: no sounds at all
[01:32] <lufis> rkyraccoon55: oh, nevermind then
[01:32] <profoX`> lufis: the problem is it doesn't play _anything_ but rkyraccoon55 also doesnt get any errors... so the system Thinks everything works, while no sound is coming out of the system....
[01:33] <stutsman> There is no way for me to make it fat32 without loosing everything is there?
[01:33] <chamberlain> and now you have more options, right carolyn?
[01:33] <lufis> ah, i thought s/he said sound systems were working
[01:33] <carolyn_> one more, delete
[01:33] <stutsman> read only is ok though... that will allow me to access the files right... like play mp3s and such?
[01:33] <chamberlain> yupp, delete
[01:33] <Frogzoo> chamberlain: don't use the ubuntu live cd to resize ntfs
[01:33] <chamberlain> it
[01:33] <profoX`> stutsman: you can't convert to fat32 without losing data, no
[01:33] <carolyn_> ok
[01:33] <lovloss> hi everyone ^_^
[01:33] <chamberlain> well frogzoo i told him to use his partion cd that he said he had
[01:33] <rkyraccoon55> profox: yea\
[01:34] <profoX`> stutsman: you can read from NTFS fine
[01:34] <lovloss> Taking a break from learning about classes. :3
[01:34] <chamberlain> and carolyn, you can now create a partition in the ext3 format
[01:34] <stutsman> ok... thats all I need to do then. But for some reason it won't let me browse. I have no clue to gain access to it.
[01:34] <glen> got a question. about open office spreadsheet
[01:34] <rkyraccoon55> Lufis: should i re-install Alsa?
[01:34] <carolyn_> sweeeeet, what file system do i want to use if i want it to be usable with both linux and winders?
[01:34] <profoX`> stutsman: ntfs-3g even provides write support that is known to work well, it's in release candidate state now, so it's not 100% stable, but nobody has had problems with it ..yet
[01:34] <vox754> Frogzoo, what do you suggest to resize ntfs? I've use Knoppix CD with QTParted, and no problemo
[01:34] <lovloss> Windows needs to be in NFTS carolyn
[01:35] <carolyn_> yea, but you cant write to ntfs with linux
[01:35] <lovloss> carolyn_: You cant have linux and windows on the same file system
[01:35] <stutsman> ok ok...
[01:35] <carolyn_> no, no
[01:35] <lufis> rkyraccoon55: that doesn't sound like a good idea
[01:35] <chamberlain> carolyn, there is a program for windows to let you read from ext3, cant remember the name
[01:35] <profoX`> carolyn_: you can mount an ext2/ext3 linux partition in windows with 3rd party tools too...
[01:35] <lufis> rkyraccoon55: have you confirmed the soundcard is supported?
[01:35] <carolyn_> i need to put files on it using linux, and take em off using windows
[01:35] <chamberlain> im just finding it
[01:35] <stutsman> I think read access is really all I need for now... if I later decided I need write access I might try though....
[01:35] <stutsman> So how do I gain access to that drive then from Ubuntu?
[01:36] <chamberlain> ext2 ifs
[01:36] <ikonia> stutsman: there are no stable cross-platform file systems for write access
[01:36] <sgentry6> carolyn_: you can write to ntfs partitions now: http://www.ntfs-3g.org/
[01:36] <profoX`> stutsman: is it another hard drive? because other partitions onthe same drive are autodetected afaik
[01:36] <chamberlain> http://www.google.ca/url?sa=t&ct=res&cd=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.fs-driver.org%2F&ei=bSviReXJJ6LmhgL7yo3IAw&usg=__U3HvjKp-tjqrh9YIXII5dLKhYcA=&sig2=HYVtJhn4Ytb-fqLdWGoJtg
[01:36] <rkyraccoon55> lufis: i read online that it should work
[01:36] <stutsman> yes, its a completely seperate hard drive
[01:36] <lovloss> there you go
[01:36] <lufis> rkyraccoon55: hmm.. i dunno. i thought soundblasters were pretty well supported
[01:36] <lufis> rkyraccoon55: but apparently maybe not
[01:36] <lovloss> i didn know they had that
[01:36] <profoX`> sgentry6: carolyn_: even though no problems have been found with ntfs-3g yet, it still isn't 100% stable, it's still being tested, just a little warning
[01:36] <rkyraccoon55> lufis: me too
[01:36] <Quintin> Here I am!
[01:37] <chamberlain> carolyn already reformatted to ext3
[01:37] <stutsman> if I go to System>preferences>drives
[01:37] <rkyraccoon55> lufis: forums seem to agree with you that it should be supported
[01:37] <stutsman> I can see the drive
[01:37] <vox754> ikonia, next time I want to be the OP of my channel
[01:37] <profoX`> stutsman: you have to know what partition it is (you can see that with the command: sudo fdisk -l) and then you have to add a line to /etc/fstab (gksu gedit /etc/fstab)
[01:37] <lovloss> Best thing to do with an NFTS partition isnt write to it. Its to move *off* it so you can delete windows ;)
[01:37] <rkyraccoon55> lufis: people who have my card have it working fine
[01:37] <ikonia> vox754: sorry pardon ?
[01:37] <stutsman> but when I click on browse it says its inaccessable
[01:37] <ingrix> lovloss: Well put'
[01:38] <stutsman> wow ok...
[01:38] <lufis> rkyraccoon55: hey, i have a soundblaster live and in the gui mixer it sees the soundcard into two things... is that the case with you? go to file > change device
[01:38] <stutsman> now this is some new territory for me
[01:38] <carolyn_> what about fat 32, cant both linux and windows use that?
[01:38] <chamberlain> yupp
[01:38] <chamberlain> they can
[01:38] <profoX`> stutsman: so you already see your drive?
[01:38] <carolyn_> well, why wouldnt i use that then?
[01:38] <ingrix> carolyn_: Yes, Linux and Windows can use fat32
[01:38] <stutsman> yes I can see it under drives
[01:38] <stutsman> just can't browse
[01:38] <gyaresu> carolyn_: It's not a journaling filing system.
[01:38] <chamberlain> no reason, either works
[01:38] <lovloss> fat32 is perfect for jump drives in fact
[01:38] <profoX`> carolyn_: they can both access it, but fat32 cannot contain the linux filesystem itself! and it's also a bad idea for windows because fat32 doesnt even provide journallin!g not safe for your data in other words
[01:39] <glen> is there a way to create dashed borders around a cell in a spreadsheet in open office
[01:39] <carolyn_> so... we wouldnt do that because its the easy way?
[01:39] <chamberlain> nope
[01:39] <gyaresu> carolyn_: Nor can it save files in unicode or record the file permissions.
[01:39] <profoX`> carolyn_: we wouldnt do that because its not safe and because the root file system cant be on fat32....
[01:39] <chamberlain> just use ext3 and install ext2ifs in windows
[01:39] <lovloss> fat 32 is very... old hat
[01:39] <chamberlain> profox, she doesnt wnat the root on this drive
[01:39] <ikonia> chamberlain: thats not stable for write access
[01:39] <stutsman> I'm guessing I need to open the "root terminal" to type in that command?
[01:39] <carolyn_> i'm only moving files
[01:39] <chamberlain> sure it is, i use it all the time, ikonia
[01:39] <ikonia> chamberlain: no its not
[01:40] <ikonia> chamberlain: just because it is for you doesn't mean it is
[01:40] <rkyraccoon55> lufis: where is that?
[01:40] <profoX`> well my favourite solution is ext2ifs, works fine (also for ext3 because thats almost the same as ext2, but with journalling support)
[01:40] <lovloss> carolyn_: Id say to move files its perfect
[01:40] <chamberlain> well, it works great, but you can think what you want
[01:40] <gyaresu> carolyn_: Not to mention file size limits.. The list goes on...
[01:40] <lufis> rkyraccoon55: double-click on the speaker icon on the panel
[01:40] <misfit_toy> is there a VPN client for a symantec isakmp vpn gateway for edgy?
[01:40] <chamberlain> forgot about that gyaresu
[01:40] <ikonia> chamberlain: I know - it works for me, but I don't recommended it because it can cause serious corruption
[01:40] <gyaresu> chamberlain: Hey?
[01:40] <chamberlain> shes just moving files, ikonia
[01:40] <ikonia> chamberlain: more so to someone who doesn't know what they are going
[01:40] <Quintin> What kernel does the 6.10 liveCD use?
[01:40] <rkyraccoon55> lufis: the audigy 2 value is selected
[01:41] <grndslm> is it possible to copy files with spaces, & character, and other oddball characters using scp??
[01:41] <Frogzoo> !works for me
[01:41] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[01:41] <chamberlain> you mentioned the file size limit, gyareso
[01:41] <lufis> rkyraccoon55: is that the only one?
[01:41] <Quintin> Does anyone here have dual core intel cpu ?  or hyperthreading cpu?  I need help confirming bug
[01:41] <Quintin> grayscale: yea
[01:41] <stutsman> awwww....crappy... my help left
[01:41] <rkyraccoon55> lufis: my onboard sound for my motherboard is up there
[01:41] <gyaresu> chamberlain: just emphasising general vfat crumminess.
[01:41] <chamberlain> ok frogzoo, ive seen that before, but still, its not intended to be where she leaves her most important data, from what i have gathered
[01:42] <rkyraccoon55> lufis: but thats it
[01:42] <lufis> rkyraccoon55: are you sure it's not being used by default? disable it in your bios and see if that works
[01:42] <akao> hey guys when i try to 'sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts' it tells me that the package isn't around anymore.  Is anyone else experiencing this?
[01:42] <coulix> is there a way of mapping mouse events to keyboard fonction in (system/prefs/keybdshortcuts) ?
[01:42] <Shrimpy1> can someone help me install the i915 driver on a laptop with an intel graphics card
[01:42] <lovloss> akao: they fiddled with some of the repos lately, i had the same issue. i just downloaded them
[01:42] <ikonia> Shrimpy1: use the i810 driver
[01:42] <lufis> rkyraccoon55: or even plug the speaker cord into the mobo jack
[01:42] <Shrimpy1> ikonia: how do i install it?
[01:43] <lufis> rkyraccoon55: and see
[01:43] <stutsman> ok.....so can anyone else possibly help me then?
[01:43] <akao> lovloss: how did you fix it?
[01:43] <rkyraccoon55> Lufis: Sound Blaster is set as my default
[01:43] <ikonia> Shrimpy1: its already installed
[01:43] <lovloss> akao: look them up on kde-look. Google is your friend. ttf files install by right clicking them and telling ubuntu to install it.
[01:43] <lufis> rkyraccoon55: well, it may be, but given the circumstances it might be confused or something
[01:43] <Shrimpy1> ikonia: well how do i change my resolution then?
[01:43] <gyaresu> stutsman: Need a question.
[01:43] <carolyn_> ahhhh! its gone, its just gone
[01:43] <ikonia> shrimpyyou need to dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and configure x to use the i810 driver
[01:44] <stutsman> Okay... I have a dual boot situation...
[01:44] <chamberlain> whats gone carolyn?
[01:44] <stutsman> two hard drives, one with WIndows XP in nfts file system
[01:44] <carolyn_> my external drive
[01:44] <gyaresu> stutsman: mmm...
[01:44] <stutsman> the other with Ubuntu
[01:44] <carolyn_> i cant find it
[01:44] <akao> lovloss: what is this google you speak of?
[01:44] <akao> *scratches head*
[01:44] <lovloss> akao:  HERESY
[01:44] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: are you still working on the resolution thing?
[01:44] <chamberlain> like you cant literally find it or it doesnt appear in ubuntu?
[01:44] <stutsman> I'm wanting to gain read access of my windows drive from ubuntu to access my mp3s and other files
[01:44] <Shrimpy1> ikonia: but when i set that up it aks a lot of questions and i messed it up last time. can i ask you questions about it
[01:44] <ikonia> IndyGunFreak: just told him to reconfigure X to use the i810
[01:44] <hajiki> hey guys how do i make a launcher for the Trash Can???
[01:44] <ikonia> Shrimpy1: you can ask questions
[01:44] <rkyraccoon55> lufis: when i switched it to my onboard sound and plugged it in to my motherboard it worked
[01:44] <carolyn_> its no longer in ubuntu
[01:44] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: yes sir    or    ma'am
[01:44] <IndyGunFreak> ikonia: hopefully that works
[01:44] <lovloss> www.google.com
[01:45] <chamberlain> what did you do?
[01:45] <gyaresu> stutsman: Please feel free to use longer sentences. Then you just need to use ntfs-3g and set up your fstab.
[01:45] <ikonia> IndyGunFreak: i810 should work for him
[01:45] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: lol, sir
[01:45] <carolyn_> i formated it as fat32
[01:45] <gyaresu> !ntfs-3g > stutsman
[01:45] <Shrimpy1> ikonia: alright i will ask a lot, jsut to warn you
[01:45] <akao> lovloss: what do i do with the google?
[01:45] <akao> lovloss: how do i manipulate this google?
[01:45] <stutsman> Ok.. I was told that that program wasn't in its final release yet and may cause issues
[01:45] <lufis> rkyraccoon55: there you go! it's outputting to the wrong card. just disable the mobo one in your bios :)
[01:45] <lovloss> akao: lol.
[01:45] <chamberlain> hajiki, right click and choose make launcher, and then use "nautilus ~/.Trash" for the command
[01:45] <stutsman> !ntfs-3g
[01:45] <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. Installation instructions at http://lunapark6.com/?p=1710 (Dapper) and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009/ (Edgy)
[01:45] <rkyraccoon55> lufis: ooo, thanks
[01:45] <ikonia> Shrimpy1: I'll only answer with common sense
[01:45] <IndyGunFreak> ikonia: thats what i sent him instructions on, but he said it screwed him up
[01:45] <chamberlain> carolyn, did it finish?
[01:46] <gyaresu> stutsman: Yeah, that.
[01:46] <ikonia> IndyGunFreak: I'm not messing around with him
[01:46] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[01:46] <carolyn_> it finished
[01:46] <stutsman> ok..
[01:46] <hajiki> chamberlain: thanks
[01:46] <lovloss> akao:  http://thelinuxbox.org/?page_id=3
[01:46] <chamberlain> no problem
[01:46] <stutsman> any one use this?? I mean... how safe is it really?
[01:46] <lovloss> akao: its on that page
[01:46] <chamberlain> carolyn, you have to mount it
[01:46] <lufis> stutsman: it's been tested a lot
[01:46] <gyaresu> stutsman: Havn't heard any problems with it. Do some research and report back if you find someone who has.
[01:46] <carolyn_> mmmmmmmm, mount
[01:46] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: if i recall correctly, the only question it asked me, was how many bytes of memory my video card had
[01:46] <chamberlain> use the command - "sudo mount /dev/hdb1" where hdb1 is the device
[01:47] <stutsman> hmmm ok
[01:47] <lovloss> so many nice fonts on that page ^o^ they have like 7000
[01:47] <Shrimpy1> ikonia: it asks to identify the card name.  right now it says generic video card. an dthe graphics card is 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 03)
[01:47] <carolyn_> how do i be sure its really hdbl?
[01:47] <gyaresu> stutsman: :) You have backups of all the important stuff right :)  (I use my xp drive as storage for large movie files etc. all the time. And my external drive as well.
[01:47] <ikonia> Shrimpy1: ignore that
[01:47] <stutsman> All I really want is read access...
[01:48] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: i know i did not want to bother you but i'm going to ask you some
[01:48] <stutsman> yes... I do have backups..
[01:48] <chamberlain> well did you note the device name in gparted?
[01:48] <Shrimpy1> ikonia: so just hit enter
[01:48] <carolyn_> ah
[01:48] <ikonia> Shrimpy1: yes
[01:48] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: if i can remember, i'll try
[01:48] <gyaresu> stutsman: Like I said, never heard any complaints.
[01:48] <Daveyboy> what apt-get do i use for the latest firefox?
[01:48] <stutsman> ok
[01:48] <akao> lovloss: thanks
[01:48] <jkeyes0> such a happy day, automatix is back up.
[01:48] <stutsman> I'll do some research and give it a whirl
[01:48] <stutsman> thanks for the help...
[01:48] <stutsman> hopefully I can install this ok...
[01:48] <chamberlain> you got it, carolyn?
[01:49] <voidmage> Daveyboy: what version of ubuntu are you running?
[01:49] <IndyGunFreak> Daveyboy: it should autoupdate to my knowledge
[01:49] <gyaresu> stutsman: (remember to preface your comments with the nick of the person)
[01:49] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: it ask for pci bus port would it be 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 03)    but the 00:02.1 part?
[01:49] <ikonia> Shrimpy1: ignore that too
[01:49] <troploup73_> hello everyone
[01:49] <carolyn_> it says it cannot find it
[01:49] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: you got me on that one, i have no idea.
[01:49] <chamberlain> is it external?
[01:49] <Shrimpy1> ikonia: amount of memory
[01:49] <carolyn_> yes'm
[01:49] <ikonia> Shrimpy1: ignore too
[01:49] <troploup73_> is there a way to boot the live CD off harddisk using grub? my CD burner's dead
[01:49] <chamberlain> oh ok, then its probably /dev/sda1
[01:49] <stutsman> gyaresu: I'm completely new to linux as of yesterday. Before then I had used nothing but windows... Thanks for all the help. I"ll be sure to report back
[01:49] <chamberlain> i thought it was internal
[01:50] <carolyn_> it is!
[01:50] <carolyn_> but it said it couldnt find that
[01:50] <ikonia> troploup73_: nope
[01:50] <troploup73_> ikonia, why not?
[01:50] <Shrimpy1> ikonia. use kernal frame buffer device
[01:50] <chamberlain> carolyn, is it external or internal
[01:50] <carolyn_> est
[01:50] <gyaresu> Hey, nicely done. Sure to see you back here then. :)
[01:50] <carolyn_> ext
[01:50] <chamberlain> usb?
[01:50] <ikonia> troploup73_: because you can't
[01:50] <carolyn_> usb
[01:50] <ikonia> shrimpy1 nah - don't bother with that
[01:50] <CharlieSu> anyone know a good linux live distro for USB drives for command line? no GUI needed..  just need console apps
[01:51] <Shrimpy1> ikonia. autodetect keyboard?
[01:51] <troploup73_> ikonia, what's the problem?
[01:51] <chamberlain> ok, open gparted again, and in the dropdown on the top right, what are the options?
[01:51] <CharlieSu> it needs to have recent drivers..  2.6= stuff hopefully
[01:51] <fab5freddy> Need help installing a Logitech QuickCam
[01:51] <ikonia> Shrimpy1: sounds good
[01:51] <ikonia> troploup73_: you can't use grub to do that
[01:51] <carolyn_> the dev name it gave it is sda1
[01:51] <chamberlain> so use "sudo mount /dev/sda1", assuming you added it to your fstab
[01:51] <kodoku> does anyone here use virtualbox?
[01:51] <Shrimpy1> Xkbr set to   (thenit has xorg)   should i just leave like that?   ikonia
[01:52] <troploup73_> i found some directions to do that using a knopix iso image, why not for ubuntu?
[01:52] <ikonia> Shrimpy1: looks good
[01:52] <fab5freddy> when i do lsusb it detects nothing
[01:52] <carolyn_> they are delete resize/move format to, manage flags, information
[01:52] <troploup73_> ikonia,  i found some directions to do that using a knopix iso image, why not for ubuntu?
[01:52] <lufis> rkyraccoon55: any luck?
[01:52] <ikonia> troploup73_: look - why ask "if you can do it" if you won't take no for an answer - yes you can do it, but its not straight forward
[01:52] <chamberlain> did you do the command i told you to, carolyn?
[01:52] <rkyraccoon55> lufis: yea, worked like a charm, thanks
[01:52] <ikonia> troploup73_: get on with it then
[01:52] <lufis> rkyraccoon55: woot :)
[01:52] <carolyn_> how do you add it to your fstab
[01:52] <Shrimpy1> ikonia: keyboard varriant  (its blank)
[01:52] <gyaresu> Does anyone know a ubotu factoid to remind people to preface comments with their nick?
[01:52] <chamberlain> run "sudo gedit /etc/fstab:
[01:53] <ikonia> Shrimpy1: where are you - usa ?
[01:53] <Shrimpy1> yes
[01:53] <chamberlain> * " not :
[01:53] <troploup73_> if you care to give an answer, why don't you develop it thoroughly?
[01:53] <ikonia> shrimpy varient - usa
[01:53] <gyaresu> !tab
[01:53] <ubotu> You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.
[01:53] <troploup73_> ikonia, if you care to give an answer, why don't you develop it thoroughly?
[01:53] <_0_PaS_CooL_Du_T> .
[01:53] <chamberlain> and then add your entry to the bottom like so
[01:53] <carolyn_> i typed those letters and something pooed up
[01:53] <ikonia> troploup73_: because I told you the answer - no you can't do that (although you can but its very tricky)
[01:53] <chamberlain> carolyn, what happened?
[01:54] <carolyn_> it opened fstab
[01:54] <chamberlain> yupp
[01:54] <carolyn_> now what?
[01:54] <Shrimpy1> ikonia: it has keyboard options: and it already hs lv3:rat swith      hit enter or change?
[01:54] <chamberlain> now add an entry at the bottom like what im about to tell you
[01:54] <carolyn_> ok
[01:54] <fab5freddy> Logitech QuickCam not detected with lsusb, now what?
[01:54] <ikonia> Shrimpy1: leave them well alone
[01:54] <troploup73_> ikonia, if you know it's very tricky that means it's been done, do you have any references about the process?
[01:55] <ikonia> troploup73_: accept the answer is "no"
[01:55] <ikonia> troploup73_: or use your guide for knoppix
[01:55] <Shrimpy1> mouse protocol : Imps/2 or Explorer ps/2     (i'm on a laptop)
[01:55] <fab5freddy> Logitech QuickCam not detected with lsusb, now what?
[01:55] <chamberlain> "/dev/sda1  /media/external  vfat  user,noauto   0 0"
[01:55] <chamberlain> without the quotes
[01:55] <ikonia> Shrimpy1: imps2
[01:55] <jay-man> hey, im on a dell inspiron b130 and i cant get the wireless to work....can anyone help me please
[01:56] <troploup73_> ikonia, i would accept no for an answer, if it was THE answer, and I can't use knopix's guide because it's just for knopix
[01:56] <ikonia> troploup73_: it is the answer
[01:56] <chamberlain> ok carolyn?
[01:56] <jkeyes0> jay-man: any idea what sort of wireless card you have?
[01:56] <chamberlain> you also have to run the command :
[01:56] <fab5freddy> Logitech QuickCam not detected with lsusb, now what?
[01:56] <ikonia> troploup73_: the ubuntu cd would be very hard to boot with a none-native boot loader to the cd
[01:56] <troploup73_> ikonia, no it's not! you said so yourself
[01:56] <mackinac> Question - when installing with the Edgy Alternate CD, does the GRUB setup allow you to specify which drive's mbr to install itself to? ( i don;t want it on hda...)
[01:56] <chamberlain> "sudo mkdir /media/external"
[01:56] <jay-man> well its the stock one that came built into it
[01:56] <chamberlain> and then "sudo mount /dev/sda1"
[01:56] <Shrimpy1> ikonia: it has a list of X.org files. just leve it at default
[01:56] <up365> fab5freddy, I have that same cam and I saw it listed as unsupported hardware, yet it works on my SUSE PC
[01:56] <jay-man> any easy way to check
[01:56] <Shrimpy1> ikonia: or add some?
[01:56] <troploup73_> ikonia, can't i chainload to it?
[01:57] <ikonia> shrimpys1 nope progres on
[01:57] <ikonia> troploup73_: FYI knoppix uses lilo which is why its easier
[01:57] <fab5freddy> up365: suse is the only one? ubuntu doesn't work?
[01:57] <jkeyes0> jay-man: go to a terminal window and type "lspci" and look for anything regarding wireless cards.
[01:57] <abhay> i need some grub help guys
[01:57] <Shrimpy1> write files to config files, ikonia?
[01:57] <ikonia> Shrimpy1: sounds good
[01:58] <stutsman> ggyaresu: didn't think I'd be back this soon. I'm reading the instructions and its telling me to give the command: gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list in the terminal. It returns the following error: Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:    I'm not sure what thats all about.
[01:58] <up365> fab5freddy, Ive tried both, on Edgy now but worked fine on SUSE

[01:58] <Shrimpy1> attempt monitor auto detection ikonia
[01:58] <chamberlain> well, carolyn, run those commands i told you, ill be back on in a few, and you can tell me how you do it
[01:58] <troploup73_> ikonia, the trick comes from a kernel option "fromhd" not the fact that knopix uses lilo or grub
[01:58] <gyaresu> !ask |abhay
[01:58] <ubotu> abhay: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:58] <ikonia> troploup73_: why ask me if your not going to hear what I'm saying
[01:58] <fab5freddy> up365: i guess i will have to try suse, i am using vmware
[01:58] <carolyn_> ok
[01:58] <ikonia> troploup73_: if you think I'm wrong - stop asking and get on with it
[01:58] <jkeyes0> jay-man: here's a threat on the forums that should help: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=197102
[01:58] <jkeyes0> jay-man: thread, not threat
[01:59] <jay-man> haha thank you
[01:59] <troploup73_> ikonia, i don't care if you're wrong or not, the fact is you know it's done, but you won't care to share the knowlegde
[01:59] <Shrimpy1> ikonia: it ask for video monitors (as in sizes) click on what i want. (can i have more then one)
[01:59] <IndyGunFreak> I JUST WANT TO SAY I LOVE #UBUNTU
[01:59] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[02:00] <up365> fab5freddy, in my search to get it to work on Edgy I found a site that(dont remember exactly where)listed cams that would and would not work
[02:00] <Shrimpy1> i agree with IndyGunFreak the support makes me cream my pants
[02:00] <gyaresu> troploup73_: It may be unreasonable to imply that he _must_
[02:00] <lufis> IndyGunFreak: love you too ;)
[02:00] <ikonia> troploup73_: when I tell you facts - you don't listen. Knoppix is easier because it uses lilo - you tell me thats not the reason - so get on with it you clearly think you know better
[02:00] <abhay> ok. i have Windows Vista on my primary hdd, which is SATA. I just added a second hdd (IDE) onto which I have installed Ubuntu. I tried configuring grub so it would allow me to boot from Vista, but it ended up corrupting the volume. I had to reinstall Windows. How should I do this right?
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: i don't know if i love it that much, but it is at least comedic relief.
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> lo
[02:00] <whonicca> is there anyway to backup dvds with encryption protection on linux?
[02:00] <Shrimpy1> lol!
[02:00] <fab5freddy> up365: yes i have found many of those..  never tried suse.. so now might be a good opportunity, is it debian based? what are the pros/cons vs ubuntu?
[02:01] <gyaresu> abhay: That should be an easy one...
[02:01] <IndyGunFreak> whonicca: back-up or copy?
[02:01] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: on the configyyy thingyyy it ask for video tingggyyyys   (as in sizes ex 800x600) do i click only one or can i have more then one? and what did you do?
[02:01] <armadill0> I hope this isn't off-topic, but on my linux desktop I'd like to use nview to set up a a two lcd spanned desktop.  But I'm wondering, does "max resolution" refer to each DVI out individually, or does the max resolution refer to the combined resolution, ie: the sum of the two DVI outputs?  Thanks!
[02:01] <gyaresu> abhay: Point the BIOS to boot from the IDE drive first and let grub choose.
[02:01] <whonicca> IndyGunFreak, copy backup same thing
[02:02] <CP-M> Serious question for the group: Toshi Satellite P100; I can't play any audio, but it seems that the sound device is properly detected and the keyboard hotkeys even trigger muting like they should.  Any suggestions?
[02:02] <whonicca> trying to make a backup of this dvd i have
[02:02] <up365> fab5freddy,  if you use SUSE you will GStreamer software for cam, included with 10.1 Im using
[02:02] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: honestly, its been ages since i've done that command, i don't remember, but i think i only chose 1
[02:02] <Shrimpy1> thanks
[02:02] <gyaresu> abhay: That way you don't even touch the windows drive.
[02:02] <whonicca> on windows id just anydvd to bypass any sort of protection
[02:02] <ikonia> CP-M: you need the toshiba hotkey tools package
[02:02] <abhay> but what do I put in the grub config file?
[02:02] <whonicca> wondering if theirs a similar method on linux
[02:02] <gortba> Hi. Does anyone know how to rename multiple files in a directory. I have a bunch of files named S5030244.jpg, S5030245.jpg and I want to rename them as bday1.JPG, bday2.JPG etc etc...
[02:02] <stutsman> Ok, what exactly does the following error mean?   (gksu:25496): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:
[02:02] <gyaresu> abhay: Now that's a good question. I don't know if there is a Vista specific line needed.
[02:02] <mackinac> Does the current installer still let you choose which drive GRUB gets installed to?
[02:03] <ikonia> gortba: you'd need to script that
[02:03] <ikonia> stutsman: means it can't connect to your local xserver
[02:03] <ikonia> mackinac: no
[02:03] <CP-M> ikonia: to clarify... hotkeys work but no audio...  are you sure I need a hotkeys pack to fix it (and if so... google or Toshi site?)
[02:03] <mackinac> ikonia:  thanks - i was afraid of that
[02:03] <ikonia> CP-M: %99
[02:03] <stutsman> ikonia I am soooo lost
[02:03] <CP-M> okies... I'll searchy
[02:03] <gortba> iknoia: I've done this before in the command line just using a for statement--I just can't remember how
[02:03] <abhay> I did this:

[02:04] <mcphail> !k9copy > whonicca
[02:04] <ikonia> gortba: done what ?
[02:04] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: ok its done do i reboot?
[02:04] <stutsman> Ikonia: how can I fix it so that it CAN connect?
[02:04] <ikonia> abhay: thanks for the flood
[02:04] <abhay> but it messed up
[02:04] <ikonia> stutsman: xhost + and then set your DISPLAY variable
[02:04] <gyaresu> !pastebin > abhay
[02:04] <gortba> ikonia: renamed multiple files
[02:04] <ikonia> gortba: simple script
[02:04] <gortba> ikonia: Without a script
[02:04] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: i guess if it tells you to reboot, yes
[02:04] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: but listen
[02:04] <braindead_moron> i want to install the emeporer linux kernel package (empkernel26-2.6.17.3.emp3_coreduo.i686.deb) but it depends on a proprietery/non available package.. I can install it and it works, but then apt stops working because of the broken dependency.  Then when I do a apt-get install -f it removes the emp kernel.. so how can i "fool" ubuntu into thinking I have the package the kernel depends on?
[02:04] <ikonia> gortba: you can't do it the way you want without a script
[02:04] <gyaresu> abhay: preface comments with the nick of the intended recipient.
[02:04] <up365> fab5freddy, I dont know if SUSE is Debian based have both PCs connected to 1 monitor,switch back and forth found many similarities and differences not to say 1 is better than other and yes 5 CDs or 1 DVD
[02:04] <ikonia> braindead_moron: you can't
[02:05] <abhay> gyaresu: OK. Im new to this
[02:05] <gortba> ikonia: oh. Even if the naming of each file is random?
[02:05] <ikonia> braindead_moron: use supported packages
[02:05] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1: if its screwed up, before you do a new install, boot a live cd, install x-chat or something, and come back here and see if we can help you fix the prob.
[02:05] <braindead_moron> ikonia: I don't believe you
[02:05] <braindead_moron> sorry
[02:05] <ikonia> gortba: thats the problem
[02:05] <ikonia> braindead_moron: no problem
[02:05] <gyaresu> abhay: no problem. You probably need the grub entry to be sd0 or something as it's a serial drive...
[02:05] <stutsman> ikonia: when I use that command I get another error -         xhost:  unable to open display ""
[02:06] <gyaresu> abhay: yeah. you do.
[02:06] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: alright! i have my windows desktop that i hardly touch and i'll long on to that.  Thanks for your help hope to talk to you later with a sucess rating!
[02:06] <ikonia> stutsman: are you root ?

[02:06] <gyaresu> abhay: :)
[02:06] <stutsman> iknoia I am root
[02:06] <gortba> ikonia: I mean it doesn't matter which file gets bday1.JPG, bday2.JPG etc...
[02:06] <gyaresu> abhay: On teh interweb!
[02:06] <ikonia> stutsman: why are you root - your not ment to use the root account
[02:06] <ikonia> gortba: SO ?
[02:06] <ikonia> oops caps
[02:07] <stutsman> ikonia: The short answer is that I"m root because I guess I really didn't know any better. I'm completely new to this all.
[02:07] <gortba> ikonia: so do you know how to use a "for" statement to do this in the command line?
[02:07] <ikonia> stutsman: then read the docs on ubuntu.com and ubotu links to learn
[02:07] <ikonia> !root >stutsman

[02:08] <ikonia> gortba: sorry, I'm not in the frame of mind to work it out
[02:08] <kaje1> does anyone know how to make ssh -r not follow symbolic links?
[02:08] <braindead_moron> Frogzoo: I';m not worried about supported as much as I am about my laptop hibernating

[02:17] <IndyGunFreak> kungfugoat: so get Nvidia
[02:18] <kungfugoat> IndyGunFreak: I would if it was easy to rip out the chip from my laptop
[02:18] <EmilMelgaard> Hmm, I can only get this acpi to show the battery state, do you know where I can find more information about it?
[02:18] <stutsman> I think I"m going to pull my hair out
[02:18] <IndyGunFreak> kungfugoat: guess the only option now then, is sell your laptop and buy one with an nvidia chip
[02:19] <kungfugoat> IndyGunFreak: that's why I'm so pissed off
[02:19] <IndyGunFreak> kungfugoat: whats the malfunction?
[02:19] <IndyGunFreak> i've used ATI under Linux,
[02:19] <kungfugoat> I tried to sell the thing but it looks like I'll have to lose about $500
[02:19] <kungfugoat> in 4 months

[02:20] <stutsman> ikonia: but the instructions for this nfts-3g thing just go right over my head

[02:25] <steffen_> hi, i need to emulate my mousebuttons with the keyboard in X.org. May someone suggest a program which I can use for that? F.E.: bind "Super"+y = Left Mouse . Thank you very much.
[02:26] <n2diy_> steffen_: take a look in system-prefs
[02:26] <n2diy_> steffen_: take a look in system-prefs-keyboard
[02:27] <steffen_> n2diy_: well oh, I forgot to mention I am under IceWM. Old Laptop.
[02:27] <reuben> question: how do i switch from kde to gnome
[02:28] <n2diy_> steffen_: you don't have a system preferences menu?
[02:28] <Shrimpy> IndygunFreak: same problem it does not allow anything larger. it allows smaller sizers. any clues?
[02:28] <genii> reuben If you have both installed you normally select the session type from your login manager  (eg: kdm or gdm)
[02:29] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy: none at all.
[02:29] <steffen_> n2diy_:No no system-prefs. I found some Programs but none of them is available for debian/ubuntu and none of them is compilable: xrebind xkeymouse (something like that)
[02:29] <reuben> genii...this is my first install....should i reboot?
[02:29] <Shrimpy> IndyGunFreak: ui get the crappy one i have now and two smaller ones
[02:29] <Marintia> Hi I can't install flash player for xubuntu any idea?
[02:29] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy: i have no idea why that is.
[02:29] <genii> reuben Do you know if you installed the KDE or Gnome version of ubuntu?

[02:29] <n2diy_> steffen_: ok, check out the man page for loadkeys
[02:29] <steffen_> n2diy_: One can bind key in IceWm but not the Mouse Buttons. I didn't found the command

[02:30] <steffen_> n2diy_ : thank you will do that
[02:30] <Marintia> I did it thank you
[02:30] <genii> reuben Anyhow, yes, after first install from the livecd you should reboot with the cd out so it boots up to the new system
[02:30] <reuben> genii i installed 6.10 with gnome, did an update and add program and after the restart kde came up
[02:31] <reuben> genii currently booting from hard disk
[02:31] <genii> reuben So if you logout from the desktop, you should be able to choose the default session type (window manager) you want from the display manager
[02:32] <genii> reuben You do not need to completely reboot
[02:32] <Mat1> hello again everyone
[02:32] <akao> so i have some fonts in just the straight .ttf format can i just past them in a particular directory to install?
[02:32] <reuben> genii ok i'll try it
[02:33] <Marintia> Thank you :)
[02:33] <Marintia> I did it and works
[02:34] <Indephysis> What's the package name for Beryl?
[02:34] <ikonia> beryl I think
[02:34] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[02:35] <Indephysis> In my defense there's often stuff like "Beryl-5.2.1.2.2.2.omelette.omelet.tomato.tomahto.i386.1.5"
[02:35] <feryana> hi.... I bought a new computer... I'm trying to install Ubuntu, but when the live CD starts booting I receive this error, PCI Failed to allocate mem resource
[02:35] <IndyGunFreak> Indephysis: thats just version numbers, what type of video card do you have?
[02:36] <Indephysis> ... I made that up, but I'm on a Intel 810e
[02:37] <IndyGunFreak> Indephysis: well, good luck getting beryl running
[02:37] <Indephysis> Not very compatible? :(
[02:37] <kungfugoat> I'm still looking for a good media player/organizer to replace mediamonkey
[02:37] <Marintia> What is beryl ?
[02:38] <feryana> hi.... I bought a new computer... I'm trying to install Ubuntu, but when the live CD starts booting I receive this error, PCI Failed to allocate mem resource
[02:38] <Mat1> beryl is a really nice desktop environment, which looks like the default but has a lot of animation features
[02:38] <hivemind> I for one can attest that Beryl is really, really perty.
[02:38] <Mat1> lol it is
[02:39] <test3> anyone here using fluxbox? where do you go to change your resolution?
[02:39] <Marintia> matl and XGL ??
[02:39] <ed1t> anybody have IBM Thinkpad R52 here?
[02:39] <Motoko> how do I reconfigure the X Server?
[02:40] <Motoko> something like sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-???
[02:40] <Marintia> can i install beryl for xubuntu ?
[02:40] <genii> Motoko: Yes.  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:40] <ikonia> Motoko: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:40] <Motoko> thank you
[02:40] <test3> anyone here using fluxbox? where do you go to change your resolution?
[02:40] <feryana> omg
[02:40] <ikonia> Marintia: never seen it on xfce
[02:40] <ikonia> Marintia: never thought of that
[02:41] <ikonia> feryana: what ?
[02:41] <feryana> I dont want to use vista...
[02:41] <ikonia> feryana: then don't
[02:41] <Marintia> ikonia:  then how can i try =?
[02:41] <feryana> ikonia
[02:41] <feryana> hi.... I bought a new computer... I'm trying to install Ubuntu, but when the live CD starts booting I receive this error, PCI Failed to allocate mem resource
[02:41] <ikonia> Marintia: you could search the wiki for a guide
[02:41] <ed1t> anybody know a site for Intel Pro Wireless 2915ABG drivers?
[02:41] <stutsman> WOOHOOO I think I"m actually getting somewhere
[02:41] <Xappe> test3: hmm, either edit your xorg.conf, or use xrandr I guess
[02:41] <ikonia> ed1t: can you not use the intel 2200 drivers in ubuntu
[02:42] <drew989> Hi is there anyone who could tell me the difference between the ubuntu DVD and ubuntu desktop cd?
[02:42] <ed1t> ikonia how do i setup?
[02:42] <T0B1A5Funky> drew989 one's bigger
[02:42] <ikonia> drew989: the dvd has more packages on the disk so you don't have to download
[02:42] <Mat1> the ubuntu dvd has a lot of extra packages
[02:42] <jeff22> I can't get ubuntu to connect to the internet, is it possible to download packages on my xp and transfer them to ubuntu
[02:42] <Mat1> yupp
[02:43] <ikonia> jeff22: better to fix the problem
[02:43] <T0B1A5Funky> jeff22: it's possible to connect to the internet, it may take a while, but yes, you can download certain packages.. it will take longer
[02:43] <Mat1> but you might have problems with dependencies
[02:43] <ikonia> jeff22: than do dodgy work arounds
[02:43] <Marintia> ikonia:  it's possible :)
[02:43] <ikonia> Marintia: thats great
[02:43] <nowhere> Hi, ikonia, thanks a lot for your help (pointing me to the guide for installing ATI drivers). I have another questions though, are there pretty fonts available? Or something like ClearType? As it is now fonts are a little blurry. Or could the reason be that I have to install drivers for my TFT screen (SyncMaster 930BF)?
[02:43] <Mat1> check out http://packages.ubuntu.com
[02:43] <drew989> ohhh i see, yeah i have a dvd but it is scrached and i really dont want to download the enire 3+gigs again so i think i will fo for the cd and download what i need as i go
[02:43] <Quintin> I need someone with a dual-core intel CPU and someone with a hyper-threading CPU to help me confirm a bug please.  Take about 5 minutes to do.
[02:43] <ikonia> nowhere: no problem, and yes you can download fonts
[02:43] <Quintin> nowhere: x should use subpixel rendering by default.
[02:43] <T0B1A5Funky> what's the problem quintin?
[02:44] <Ironman273> OK, so I'm trying to learn about commands using "man" in terminal.  So I learned my first command, now how do I get out of the manual?
[02:44] <GMWeezel> How can I remove an application without killing it;s dependencies?
[02:44] <Quintin> nowhere: system > prefs > fonts
[02:44] <Quintin> Ironman273: man man, silly.
[02:44] <Indephysis> If I run a full update will that update my core version?
[02:44] <Quintin> Ironman273: 'q'
[02:44] <pedro> hi
[02:44] <T0B1A5Funky> your "core"??
[02:44] <Ironman273> Quintin: D'oh!  Thanks.
[02:44] <nowhere> I doubt fonts are the real issue though, as when browsing ofcourse they are specified by the webdesigner, and they are all 'blurry'.
[02:44] <ed1t> anybody know a site for Intel Pro Wireless 2915ABG drivers?
[02:44] <test3> anyone here using fluxbox? where do you go to change your resolution?
[02:45] <Quintin> test3: /j #fluxbox
[02:45] <Quintin> test3: I would guess in xorg.conf
[02:45] <ikonia> ed1t: use the ipw2200 ones - they are part of ubuntu and should work
[02:45] <kitche> test3: int he xorg.conf
[02:45] <cables> My fonts in OpenOffice look ugly. However, all other apps render fonts just fine, as well as OpenOffice on windows. Does anyone have any ideas?
[02:45] <Quintin> cables: /j #openoffice.org
[02:45] <ed1t> ikonia its not working...i need to configure a WPA wireless network
[02:45] <jeff22> how do I get ubuntu to connect to the internet? I have dial-up and an internal modem
[02:45] <ikonia> ed1t: try configuring it
[02:46] <ikonia> ed1t: can ubuntu even see your card
[02:46] <Xappe> test3: .:02:41:54:. < Xappe> test3: hmm, either edit your xorg.conf, or use xrandr I guess
[02:46] <T0B1A5Funky> Wireless Networking Question : ...I have Feisty Fawn installed, and it automatically picked up my wireless card, and it says it is doing "roaming" but i can't connect to my Wifi, what do i do?
[02:46] <ed1t> ikonia i dunno...where would i find that?
[02:46] <cables> Quintin, I'm inclined to think it's not just an OpenOffice problem. I use it on Windows and it looks fine. But I'll go ask there, too.
[02:46] <ikonia> ed1t: look in the network configure tool under system--->administration
[02:46] <Mat1> t0b1a5funky, #ubuntu+1, for feisty
[02:47] <T0B1A5Funky> oh okay, thank you
[02:47] <ed1t> ikonia yea it lists the card
[02:47] <ed1t> there
[02:47] <ikonia> ed1t: so configure it using the same interface
[02:47] <ikonia> ed1t: that suggests your drivers are fine
[02:47] <ed1t> ikonia i did but it doesnt work
[02:47] <ed1t> my ethernet is not working either
[02:47] <ikonia> ed1t: probably not your drivers then
[02:47] <ed1t> i have Broadcom NetXtreme
[02:47] <roler> is there a utility on the ubuntu edgy live cd that will copy one partition/drive to another drive? I know there is resizing software, just don't know if it copies too
[02:48] <ikonia> roler: not really
[02:48] <felipe_eletro_bo> #ubuntu-br
[02:48] <Marintia> How can I force a windows to close ?
[02:48] <casey_> what is the beryl servers name?
[02:48] <ed1t> ikonia alright lemme go back to ubuntu and check it out
[02:48] <casey_> or how do i join?
[02:48] <roler> can I just cp /dev/whatever to /dev/whatever?
[02:48] <Mat1> go to system>administration>system monitors
[02:48] <ikonia> roler: don't copy /dev
[02:48] <feryana> Ubuntu 6.06 Installs on a Core 2 (the pc version)
[02:48] <ikonia> roler: its dynamic creation from udev
[02:49] <ikonia> feryana: ok
[02:49] <feryana> ikonia ok what?
[02:49] <ikonia> feryana: telling us ubuntu 6.06 install on core2
[02:49] <feryana> Does Ubuntu 6.06 Installs on a Core 2, the pc version
[02:49] <ikonia> ooh your asking does it
[02:50] <ikonia> feryana: I don't think many chipsets are supported
[02:50] <casey_> how do i get to the beryl server?
[02:50] <feryana> ikonia what do you mean? That I can't use Ubuntu??
[02:50] <kungfugoat> feryana: are you referring to core duo?
[02:50] <Marintia> how can i force a windows to close ?!?!?!
[02:50] <kitche> casey_: what do you mean you mean their channel?
[02:50] <casey_> yeah
[02:51] <kitche> casey_: /j beryl
[02:51] <feryana> kungfugoat yes, I bought a core due
[02:51] <feryana> due
[02:51] <Ironman273> What's the command to download stuff?  Isn't it "sudo get-apt install " or something like that?
[02:51] <omeil> Can someone please tell me the command to copy from a folder to the /bin folder?
[02:51] <ikonia> feryana: I mean that a lot of the chipsets are not supported under 6.06
[02:51] <nathanael> "sudo apt-get install"
[02:51] <ikonia> omeil: cp -R $source $dest
[02:52] <omeil> ikonia: thx
[02:52] <Ironman273> nathanael: So that's right?
[02:52] <nathanael> read again:
[02:52] <nathanael> "sudo apt-get install"
[02:52] <casey_> kitche: it says that that channel doesnt exist when i try and go there
[02:52] <nathanael> not "get-apt"
[02:52] <kitche> casey_: #beryl try it
[02:52] <Ironman273> nathanael: Oh I had it backwards, thanks
[02:52] <Cooner750> I need an answer quick. Is it possible to edit the GRUB configuration on the Master Boot Record of the hard drive from the Ubuntu LiveCD?
[02:52] <nathanael> np
[02:52] <feryana> ikonia and 6.10 ?
[02:52] <nathanael> yes
[02:53] <ikonia> feryana: think its better - but not perfect
[02:53] <casey_> kitche: type in #beryl?
[02:53] <ikonia> feryana: not tried it myself but less people complain about it, but some still do
[02:53] <nathanael> You need to mount your boot partition first, though
[02:53] <kitche> casey_: /j #beryl
[02:53] <genii> Yes you can run the grub-install friom the livecd
[02:53] <Cooner750> How?
[02:53] <kitche> I forgot the #
[02:53] <nowhere> So, other then picking other fonts (doesn't seem to be the problem). Any suggestion on what I can try to make all fonts less blurry? With ATI Radeon 9600 and Samsung Syncmaster 930BF (using fglrx driver and dapper drake) .
[02:53] <genii> !mbr reinstall
[02:53] <ubotu> mbr: Master Boot Record for IBM-PC compatible computers.. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.1.8-1 (edgy), package size 20 kB, installed size 92 kB (Only available for i386 amd64)
[02:53] <cables> nowhere, are you using a VGA connection to an LCD monitor?
[02:53] <genii> bah ubotu
[02:54] <casey_> kitche:thanks
[02:54] <Cooner750> genii: How do I re-configure MBR just so that I can get it to stop throwing Error 22?
[02:54] <jeff22> how do I get ubuntu to connect to the internet? I have dial-up and an internal modem
[02:54] <nowhere> cables: No I use a digital cable, that was your question right? Haven't changed anything since swtching from Windows (no blurry things :) )
[02:54] <HymnToLife> ubotu, tell jeff22 about dialup | jeff22, see the private message from ubotu.
[02:54] <nathanael> Get Broadband
[02:54] <cables> nowhere, DVI or VGA?
[02:54] <kitche> !dialup | jeff22
[02:54] <ubotu> jeff22: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto
[02:55] <cables> nowhere, check your font smoothing settings, something may be set incorrectly
[02:55] <genii> Cooner750 You may want to look up the command syntax for grub-install  ... you will have to specify the /boot partition for it to work right
[02:55] <Cooner750> genii: I dont really have the time
[02:56] <genii> Cooner750 Well, reinstall then
[02:56] <Cooner750> genii: If the Ubuntu installer would work, I would
[02:57] <nowhere> Cables: It's a DVI cable. Under fonts I found a Subpixel smoothing setting, enabled it - but didn't really change anything as far as I could tell.
[02:58] <genii> Cooner750 If you are trying to use the livecd then make sure the system you are trying to run it on has > 192Mb ram or it will fail miserably every time. Otherwise use the alternate install cd
[02:58] <cables> nowhere, is it just fonts?
[02:58] <detectiveinspekt> suddenly apache php module isn't working anymore
[02:58] <Cooner750> How do I just mount the main hard drive then, and edit the GRUB config?
[02:58] <ikonia> detectiveinspekt: define not working
[02:59] <detectiveinspekt> firefox always trys to download a file
[02:59] <ikonia> detectiveinspekt: whats the url
[03:00] <detectiveinspekt> sorry its only a private server, not intending it to be public
[03:00] <nowhere> cables: Seems to be just fonts, but when I go to google for example the radio buttons look blurry too.
[03:00] <Cooner750> /dev/sda is the main drive. How can I edit the GRUB config?
[03:00] <nowhere> cables: Would sending you a screenshot make sense?
[03:00] <detectiveinspekt> I just know that the php mod has stoped working
[03:00] <cables> nowhere, I was going to ask that.
[03:00] <Ironman273> Where does Wine appear once installed?
[03:00] <genii> Cooner750 Before the mbr got messed up was it loading fine?
[03:00] <xeon`10> :( who wants to help me w/ ati stuff for edgy
[03:01] <ikonia> detectiveinspekt: is apache running
[03:01] <detectiveinspekt> yep i can see the default page
[03:01] <Cooner750> genii: Yes, I accidently deleted an ext3 partition that GRUB was 'using'. And Now I get Error 22. I just need to remove that entry from GRUB
[03:02] <xeon`10> every time i get to a certain point in the ati driver install process i get to the "check if direct rendering is yes" part and it's always "no"
[03:03] <cables> nowhere, can I pm you an email address?
[03:03] <Cooner750> Is there anything I can do?
[03:03] <feryana> Does any one has a core duo running Ubuntu????
[03:03] <nowhere> cables: Yes please :)
[03:03] <genii> Cooner750 I hope it wasn't your / partition. Anyhow, sda will have some subpartition that you need to mount like sda1 or sda2 whatever. Likely sda1. So you mount it someplace like /mnt/sda (you need to mkdir /mnt/sda first for this example). Then edit the file /mnt/sda/boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:04] <Marintia> Hi how can I connect my xubuntu automatically to internet? is using a wireless card
[03:04] <Marintia> but when i reboot i need to configure everything again
[03:04] <orangey> hey all!
[03:04] <orangey> I am running ubuntu on an HP Nc6230 laptop, and it loses sound to the speakers (headphones work) after any suspend / resume; though this can be fixed with a hibernate.
[03:04] <orangey> any ideas?
[03:05] <xeon`10> can someone help me to install the ati drivers???? it never works the right way
[03:05] <Iced_Kirby> Guys, I have  a NTFS drive. I defrag'd it a lot of times. Now do I make a partition? Or do I just run the installer?
[03:05] <ikonia> !ati >xeon`10
[03:05] <yell0w> hey all, what's the chance that a debian package works for ubuntu ? it's not gonna break anything right ?
[03:05] <ikonia> yell0w: slim
[03:05] <omeil> has anyone tried that before http://www.jankratochvil.net/project/captive/#notes
[03:05] <SaveFerris> Hey all, when I install things like the freeware games through synaptic, nothing happens after it "installs" them.... any ideas?
[03:05] <yell0w> ikonia, have you tried installing jedit ?
[03:06] <ikonia> nope
[03:06] <genii> Cooner750 But a saner idea would be to instead just do:  sudo grub-install --root-directory=/dev/sda1       (if sda1 was the partition with /boot directory in it)
[03:06] <Iced_Kirby> Guys, I have a NTFS drive. I defrag'd it a lot of times. Now do I make a partition? Or do I just run the installer? How do I make a partition? How big should it be? How many partitions should I make?
[03:06] <ikonia> SaveFerris: you have to run them after install
[03:06] <StoneNote> SaveFerris, what do you want to happen automagically?
[03:06] <nowhere> cables can you come #cables ?
[03:06] <Cooner750> genii: I see not 'boot' directory in /dev/sda1
[03:06] <ikonia> Iced_Kirby: the partition size is up to you
[03:06] <yell0w> ikonia, how can i make a debian binary usable by ubuntu ?
[03:06] <ikonia> Iced_Kirby: the installer walks you through making a partition
[03:06] <cables> Marintia, can you pastebin the contents of your /etc/network/interfaces file?
[03:06] <cables> !paste | Marintia
[03:06] <ubotu> Marintia: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[03:06] <Iced_Kirby> ikonia: It does?
[03:06] <StoneNote> bueller? anyone? bueller? bueller? anyone?
[03:06] <ikonia> yell0w: debian is not mean to be used by ubuntu
[03:06] <ikonia> Iced_Kirby: yes
[03:07] <makuseru> when i try to play a avi or wmv in konqueror it says i need the "netscape plugin" what exactly is it i need? and where can i get it?
[03:07] <Iced_Kirby> ikonia: So I just run the installer?
[03:07] <yell0w> ikonia, i can't compile from source
[03:07] <yell0w> lol
[03:07] <ikonia> Iced_Kirby: you boot from the install cd and run installers
[03:07] <ikonia> yell0w: ok - don't build from source then
[03:07] <SaveFerris> hah, nice stonenote
[03:07] <orangey> hey all!
[03:07] <Iced_Kirby> ikonia: I'm in Ubuntu right now, I'm on it through the CD
[03:07] <Cooner750> How do I mount an NTFS partition
[03:07] <Iced_Kirby> ikonia: Do I double click the install icon?
[03:07] <orangey> I'm having some trouble with my HP NC6230 laptop - it won't play sound through the speakers after a suspend / resume.
[03:07] <orangey> any ideas?
[03:08] <ikonia> Iced_Kirby: what do you normally do to launch an application
[03:08] <Marintia> cable how can i go here : /etc/network/interfaces
[03:08] <esaym> what's a good front end for LAME?
[03:08] <yell0w> ikonia, uhmm so what should i do ? can't compile from source, not in repository, but there's a debian package ?
[03:08] <ikonia> yell0w: ask a package maintainer to build you a package
[03:08] <Iced_Kirby> ikonia: Well, I wanted to know if you meant installer as in on the desktop or on the boot menu
[03:08] <Cooner750> Is anyone going to answer?
[03:08] <ikonia> Iced_Kirby: the installer on the boot menu takes you to the desktop you're in - so what do you think
[03:08] <ikonia> Cooner750: no
[03:09] <Iced_Kirby> ikonia: I double click the installer?
[03:09] <cables> Marintia, do alt-f2 and type "gedit /etc/network/interfaces". Also, please put my full IRC nick, cables, in front of messages meant for me. You can use <tab> to autocomplete IRC nicknames.
[03:09] <ikonia> Iced_Kirby: why don't you try it
[03:09] <Quintin> esaym: there is one with ubuntu.  apps > video >
[03:09] <Cooner750> ikonia: I dont need your two cents worth
[03:09] <ikonia> Cooner750: then don't ask
[03:09] <Marintia> The command "/etc/network/interfaces" failed to run:
[03:09] <Marintia> Failed to execute child process "/etc/network/interfaces" (Permission denied)
[03:09] <Quintin> Cooner750: same way you mount anything else
[03:09] <omeil> does anyone know how to install this http://www.jankratochvil.net/project/captive/#notes
[03:09] <nnliu> hi, i have no clue why, but everytime i open a window instead of it coming up it always stays in thebackround. any1 know how to fix this?
[03:09] <cables> !paste | Marintia
[03:09] <Quintin> Marintia: use 'sudo
[03:09] <ubotu> Marintia: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[03:09] <esaym> Quintin: I use Kubuntu
[03:10] <Cooner750> Quintin: It says permission denied when I try to change directories to it, /mnt/sda2
[03:10] <Quintin> Cooner750: that's not a directory, that's a block device.
[03:10] <ikonia> Cooner750: you need to mount it with user permissions
[03:10] <cables> Marintia, my mistake. Do alt-f2 and paste in this command: "gksudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces"
[03:10] <Iced_Kirby> ikonia: Is that sarcasm? Just tell me. You could be sending me into a trap to destroy my PC
[03:10] <ikonia> Quintin: no a block device is /dev/sda2
[03:10] <Quintin> ah, /mnt/sda2, oops
[03:10] <cables> Marintia, and be sure to use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[03:10] <ikonia> Iced_Kirby: I told you to read the docs - id you don't know how to launch the installer - you've not read the docs
[03:10] <ikonia> Quintin: easy to miss
[03:11] <Marintia> cables:  i did nothin appears
[03:11] <Iced_Kirby> ikonia: I did read the docs
[03:11] <Cooner750> 'only root can do that'
[03:11] <SaveFerris> Alrighty, so how do I run a program that's been "installed" by synaptic?
[03:11] <cables> !wpa > nowhere
[03:11] <Indephysis> Hahahah, I'm on a year and a half old copy of Ubuntu
[03:11] <ikonia> Iced_Kirby: don't believe you - if you don't know how to launch the installer - you've not read the docs
[03:11] <cables> Marintia, do you know how to open a terminal?
[03:11] <Indephysis> I just updated the sources list and I think my update manager had a seizure
[03:11] <ikonia> SaveFerris: find it on the menu or the file system
[03:11] <Marintia> Yes cables
[03:12] <ikonia> Cooner750: only root can cd into that dir ?
[03:12] <ikonia> Cooner750: is that the error
[03:12] <cables> Marintia, open a terminal and do "ls /etc/network | grep interfaces". You can paste a command into the terminal using ctrl-shift-v.
[03:12] <Cooner750> ikonia: trying to mount /dev/sda2 to /mnt/sda2 with normal permissions. Using sudo, it works, but when I try to cd to /mnt/sda2 it says permission denied.
[03:13] <Cooner750> ikonia: /dev/sda2 is an NTFS partition
[03:13] <ikonia> Cooner750: you need to mount it with user option
[03:13] <ikonia> so that none root users can use it
[03:13] <Marintia> cables done
[03:14] <Marintia> nothin appear
[03:14] <Marintia> torro@torro-desktop:~$ ls /etc/network | grep interfaces
[03:14] <Marintia> interfaces
[03:14] <Marintia> torro@torro-desktop:~$
[03:14] <cables> Marintia, you're not putting the command into the alt-f2 window correctly.

[03:15] <Marintia> you said terminal
[03:15] <ikonia> Cooner750: whats the problem with it
[03:15] <cables> Marintia, do this: "sudo less /etc/network/interfaces"
[03:15] <Cooner750> ikonia: GRUB -- states Error 22
[03:15] <Iced_Kirby> ikonia:  https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/installation-guide/i386/d-i-intro.html It doesn't say how to launch the installer, it just says how it works
[03:15] <ikonia> ughhh
[03:15] <Marintia> without " right? >> gksudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces
[03:15] <Marintia> true ?
[03:16] <Iced_Kirby> ikonia: See, I told you I read it
[03:16] <Prometheum> Hello, can I ask feisty questions here or is there a channel for that?
[03:16] <ikonia> Iced_Kirby: I've not read it - I'm not in the mood
[03:16] <Marintia> Done cables works now !
[03:16] <ikonia> Prometheum: ubuntu+1 for fesity
[03:16] <Prometheum> thanks
[03:16] <ikonia> no problem
[03:16] <sayers> does the ubuntu bot know how to install Nvidia Drivers?
[03:17] <dr_willis> !nvidia
[03:17] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:17] <acid_phyre> anyone here ever install beryl?
[03:17] <cables> Marintia, can you go to the folder /etc/network (put that into alt-f2) then paste that into paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[03:17] <ikonia> !nvidia >sayers
[03:17] <Marintia> I doing it cables :)
[03:17] <eontasticness_> ahoy
[03:18] <acid_phyre> anyone in here ever try to install beryl?
[03:18] <eontasticness_> does the Server edition of Ubuntu allow you to set up Raid5/Raid6 software raid during installation?
[03:18] <ikonia> acid_phyre: yes
[03:18] <acid_phyre> did u get it done?
[03:18] <Indephysis> There's a beryl channel, acid_phyre
[03:18] <ikonia> eontasticness_: I think so
[03:18] <ikonia> acid_phyre: yes
[03:18] <Marintia> cables: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7597/
[03:18] <sayers> The ubuntu bot can't hold a conversation near as well as the Debian bot.
[03:18] <acid_phyre> which is that channel
[03:18] <acid_phyre> #beryl?
[03:18] <cables> Marintia, thanks, hold on
[03:19] <eontasticness_> ikonia: i just want to know before i bother with reloading my server with ubuntu-server
[03:19] <eontasticness_> i cant find any info on it
[03:19] <omeil> umm i need to copy all of the contents of this folder /home/omeil/captive/F into /bin but the /F folder has a /bin folder in it . will it just copy all of the flies in the /bin folder or will it delete the files in there?
[03:19] <Marintia> cables:  thank you
[03:19] <eontasticness_> even on the ubuntu forums
[03:19] <ikonia> omeil: I gave you the exact command to use
[03:19] <omeil> ikonia: its just there is folders in the /F file that are the same as /bin. it won't delete any thing will it?
[03:20] <ikonia> eontasticness_: I think it does
[03:20] <ikonia> omeil: it will put the /F folder and everything beneath it into /bin
[03:20] <ikonia> omeil: so you'll have /bin/F/bin
[03:20] <cables> Marintia, it looks right. I'm not sure why it's not saving your settings.
[03:21] <Marintia> cables: ok :) well thank you very much :)
[03:23] <omeil> ikonia: doh how do i delete a file in the / folder?
[03:23] <ikonia> omeil: rm
[03:23] <don_jr> could I get some help setting up an ftp server with ubuntu?
[03:23] <cables> Marintia, no problem. I'm sorry I couldn't figure out the problem.
[03:24] <Marintia> np :)
[03:25] <UsuRpergoat> when Ubuntu is installed I do not set a root password.  what is the default pw for root?
[03:25] <sgtmattbaker> I have an nvidia videocard with the latest nvidia-glx driver installed.  I want to set up a dual-monitor.. should I use TwinView?
[03:25] <a5benwillis_> userund: There is no root password
[03:25] <Ironman273> What's with the error "The CUPS server could not be contacted"?
[03:25] <silwenae> UsuRpergoat: the password you used when you installed ubuntu the first time for your main user
[03:25] <a5benwillis_> UsuRpergoat: There is no root password
[03:26] <genii> UsuRpergoat: There is no default root pw ... it is locked out by default. To do anything requiring root access use sudo instead
[03:26] <a5benwillis_> use your password when sudo'ing
[03:26] <Ironman273> !cups
[03:26] <ubotu> 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
[03:26] <cogitatus> I'm trying to compile the newest alsa driver from source and get "No Rule to make target 'modules'." after it enters /usr/.
[03:26] <don_jr> !ftp
[03:26] <ubotu> FTP clients: !Nautilus, !gFTP (for !GNOME) - !Konqueror, !Kasablanca, !KFTPGrabber (for !KDE) - See also !FTPd
[03:27] <cogitatus> I'm assuming it can't find a required make file somewhere?
[03:27] <cables> Marintia, keep asking here, someone else who's more familiar with this will probably be able to figure out the problem.
[03:27] <a5benwillis_> sgtmattbaker: You can use twinview. Its fairly easy to set up using the nvidia-config utility
[03:27] <ikonia> cogitatus: it shouldn't be going into /use
[03:27] <nnliu> hi, i have no clue why, but everytime i open a window instead of it coming up it always stays in thebackround. any1 know how to fix this?
[03:27] <UsuRpergoat> some things require being logged in as root.  i have enabled the root account.   but there is no pw?
[03:27] <ikonia> cogitatus: there are no make files in /usr
[03:27] <ikonia> UsuRpergoat: you've been told - there is no root password
[03:27] <ikonia> !root >usurpergoat
[03:27] <ikonia> !sudo >usurpergoat
[03:28] <dr_willis> UsuRpergoat,  how did you 'enable it' it really wasent disabled.. it just has no password. so you cant login to root directly by default.
[03:29] <sgtmattbaker> nice
[03:29] <UsuRpergoat> im sorry. i am new and am still try to grasp basic linux.
[03:29] <UsuRpergoat> trying*
[03:29] <ikonia> !root >usurpergoat
[03:29] <ikonia> !sudo >usurpergoat
[03:29] <cogitatus> ikonia, I figured; any clue as to where i should direct it?
[03:29] <UsuRpergoat> ikonia: gottcha
[03:29] <cogitatus> there's a bunch of different /modules/ directories.
[03:29] <ikonia> cogitatus:  you shouldn't have to direct it
[03:29] <pirothezero> how can i set permissions on my hellanzb downloads to my user and have it hit every subdirectory/file ? sudo chmod 777 /directorypath *?
[03:30] <ikonia> cogitatus: the make file in the source root should know what to do
[03:30] <cogitatus> ah...so i should be make'ing my kernel?
[03:30] <ikonia> cogitatus: no
[03:30] <ikonia> cogitatus: you should be making alsa
[03:30] <EdgEy> piro use -r
[03:30] <pirothezero> ya figured there was a switch fro it
[03:31] <UsuRpergoat> ikonia: so before i type a command that requires root, i should type sudo. eg:  $ sudo make install     ?
[03:31] <EdgEy> though you may need chgrp/chown username
[03:31] <ikonia> UsuRpergoat: yes
[03:31] <a5benwillis_> pirothezero: Yes, chmod the /home/username/usenet directory
[03:31] <ed1t> how do i setup WPA wireless network ?
[03:31] <cogitatus> ikonia; i'm running the makefile in the alsa dir
[03:31] <cogitatus> i've already ./configure'd
[03:31] <Iced_Kirby> ikonia: I'm at the prepare partitions part of the installer, I had to chose manual, (that's what is says in the docs) Now what do I do? Do I go to my NTFS drive and click resize?
[03:31] <ikonia> cogitatus: well - something is wrong, probably with your configure if its looking in /usr
[03:31] <a5benwillis_> then all files extracted will have proper permissions
[03:31] <ikonia> Iced_Kirby: up to you
[03:31] <UsuRpergoat> ikonia: great, thank you for your patients
[03:32] <Iced_Kirby> ikonia: well, the unallocated part says only 7MB
[03:32] <ikonia> Iced_Kirby: ok
[03:32] <cogitatus> ikonia, i tried modifying configure.h - where the variable pointing to /usr used by the makefile is set - but it didn't affect the configure exec...
[03:32] <cogitatus> i tried remaking it and that didn't work
[03:32] <a5benwillis_> Has anyone figured out a way to have hellanzb run automatically at login without a terminal window?
[03:32] <Iced_Kirby> ikonia: And I want to keep windows XP.
[03:32] <ikonia> cogitatus: don't change any headers
[03:32] <ikonia> Iced_Kirby: ok
[03:33] <stutsman> Is it bad if you get an error when trying to do ./configure?
[03:33] <cogitatus> ikonia: rgr, heh
[03:33] <whta> hey, are there any disc-mounting tools like daemon tools that I can use for ubuntu? i have some iso files i need mounted but don't want to burn them.
[03:33] <cogitatus> ikonia: i'm still new to drivers
[03:33] <ikonia> cogitatus: ok
[03:33] <omeil> !iso
[03:33] <ubotu> 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
[03:33] <ikonia> cogitatus: get support from the alsa lists/irc/forums
[03:33] <omeil> !iso >whta
[03:34] <Iced_Kirby> ikonia: So, it says I need at least 2GB. Do I take around that from the NTFS drive?
[03:34] <ikonia> Iced_Kirby: up to you
[03:34] <Iced_Kirby> ikonia: But if I don't...?
[03:34] <a5benwillis_> Has anyone figured out a way to have hellanzb run automatically at login without a terminal window?
[03:34] <llama32> i've got an mp3 i need to burn, but serpentine crashes when i add it... totem also crashes if i try to open it... any suggestions?
[03:34] <cogitatus> ikonia: probably a better idea. thanks.
[03:34] <ikonia> Iced_Kirby: up to you
[03:35] <eontasticness_> hmm hopefully the server install didnt just nuke my raid6
[03:35] <eontasticness_> heh
[03:35] <King_Creole> Hi! Anyone know a good video editing app for Linux?
[03:35] <gopnik> who know an good bittorrent client..
[03:36] <gopnik> =] 
[03:36] <whta> omeil: with the mounting command, what would i put for mount point?
[03:36] <lufis> gopnik: the newer versions of ktorrent rock my socks
[03:36] <ayyub> I've been having an installation problem for a while, since 6.06. I downloaded 6.10 today, and tried to install it on my desktop. Both 6.06 a while ago and 6.10 now give me trouble installing. I'll start up the installation, and once the load screen finishes, the screen will go black, flash the _, and then give me a long message, each line starting with [17179695.908000] . I'm afraid I don't...
[03:36] <ayyub> ...know how to interpret the rest of the messages.
[03:36] <eontasticness_> King_Creole: cinelerra is the closest thing to "good" that linux has to offer in terms of video editing
[03:36] <gopnik> lufis: can i run it on ubuntu?
[03:36] <lufis> gopnik: yup
[03:36] <gopnik> can ktorrent create torrents?:)
[03:36] <n73n53> looking for some help with my wireless
[03:37] <lufis> gopnik: think so
[03:37] <King_Creole> eontasticness_, thx! will look for it in google!
[03:37] <Iced_Kirby> ikonia: What do I do after I take the # GB from the NTFS drive?
[03:37] <eontasticness_> King_Creole: yeah it does what i need
[03:37] <HLM> brb
[03:37] <chuckf_> whta: I make a directory in my home dir called 'iso' for the mount point
[03:38] <ikonia> Iced_Kirby: up to you
[03:39] <King_Creole> eontasticness_, on my xp box, i use Magix and it's very good. That's the last piece of software that keeps me from completely switching to linux
[03:39] <Iced_Kirby> ikonia: I read the docs. It says I should either make one or two partitions. What do you recommend?
[03:39] <ikonia> Iced_Kirby: up to you
[03:39] <Taco|king> does every single person in here use ubuntu?
[03:39] <ed1t> how do i setup WPA network?
[03:39] <a5benwillis_> Taco|king: Yes
[03:39] <stutsman> I need help with using ./configure
[03:39] <Taco|king> interesting
[03:39] <lufis> stutsman: what's the issue?
[03:40] <stutsman> lufis: I'm trying to install the ntfs-3g thing...
[03:40] <a5benwillis_> Taco|king: This is the busiest chan on this server. A close one with ##linux
[03:40] <King_Creole> Taco|king, I have used suse redhat and debian before. now ubuntu edgy
[03:40] <ayyub> I use FreeBSD, trying to switch.
[03:40] <stutsman> lufis: I got all the way to the part where you use ./configure but it returns a file or directory not found error
[03:40] <lufis> stutsman: are you using cvs?
[03:40] <eontasticness_> why would you want to switch from freebsd
[03:40] <ayyub> No real reason, I just wanted to check out Ubuntu.
[03:40] <ayyub> I love me my FreeBSD.
[03:41] <stutsman> lufis: cvs????
[03:41] <BakSlash> LonerVamp - You on?
[03:41] <lufis> stutsman: did you download a release tarball or whaTR?
[03:41] <eontasticness_> it runs pretty much the same software as bsd only it's more resource hungry :)
[03:41] <lufis> -r
[03:41] <eontasticness_> heh
[03:41] <ayyub> hehe
[03:42] <stutsman> lufis: the file I downloaded is ntfs-3g-1.0.tgz
[03:42] <lufis> stutsman: ah, okay. did you cd to the extracted directory?
[03:42] <lemonsCC> i am trying to access the internet through my mac (shared internet) it works with windows and not with dapper
[03:42] <diego> hola
[03:42] <stutsman> yes
[03:42] <lufis> stutsman: and it says file not found when you run ./configure?
[03:43] <shwag> where do I get the madwifi drivers ?
[03:43] <stutsman> lufis: I'm in the right directory and when I do a dir I see the file there... but yes I get the return of file or direcotry not found
[03:43] <cables> shwag, they're built in
[03:43] <lufis> stutsman: hm. run ./autogen.sh
[03:43] <shwag> cables: i dont see anything under iwconfig though
[03:44] <atomikulinux> Good VNC server for windows and VNC client for linux? One with sound n stuff.
[03:44] <cables> shwag, then it's something else.
[03:44] <ayyub> Anyone have any ideas regarding my installation problem?
[03:44] <stutsman> lufis: I get this -    bash: ./autogen.sh: No such file or directory
[03:44] <diego> buena
[03:44] <lufis> stutsman: weird. is this a binary release?
[03:44] <cables> atomikulinux, vnc doesn't have sound. You need something besides vnc for sound.
[03:44] <ed1t> i installed network-manager but the wireless icon isnt showing up
[03:44] <shwag> cables: eh?  what else could it be ?
[03:44] <atomikulinux> cables, i think realvnc has sound
[03:44] <cables> ed1t, add "nm-applet" to your startup
[03:44] <atomikulinux> but you gotta pay
[03:44] <lemonsCC> i am trying to access the internet through my mac (shared internet) it works with windows and not with dapper
[03:44] <cables> atomikulinux, quite possible. I really don't know.
[03:45] <atomikulinux> okay then :)
[03:45] <ed1t> cables, how do i do that?
[03:45] <stutsman> lufis: To be honest with you, I'm not sure. I'm following directions from a website I was sent to on here. I'm completely new to linux and I just want to be able to access my mp3s from my windows hard disk
[03:45] <cables> shwag, I don't know... but modify your question and people here might know the answer
[03:45] <Marintia> sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf why doesn't work ?
[03:45] <Marintia> command not found
[03:45] <lufis> stutsman: ah, okay. one second
[03:45] <stutsman> ok
[03:45] <cables> ed1t, first do alt-f2 and run nm-applet
[03:45] <ikonia> stutsman: just mount it read only then - you don't need ntfs3g for that
[03:45] <antiNeo> has anyone gotten rosegarden to work? it doesn't seem to be humanly possible
[03:45] <cables> Marintia, are you using Ubuntu or Kubuntu?
[03:45] <Marintia> xubuntu
[03:45] <cables> Marintia, there's your answer
[03:46] <Marintia> then how can i do it :p ?
[03:46] <lufis> stutsman: can you link me to the guide you're following?
[03:46] <ayyub> It's <g>edit.
[03:46] <ed1t> cables, did that
[03:46] <shwag> What do I have to do to get wifi working on a MacBook with Ubuntu Edgy.
[03:46] <stutsman> ikonia: how do I go about doing that though? I can see the drive, but it won't let me access it.
[03:46] <a5benwillis_> Marintia:  gedit is only fot gnome
[03:46] <cables> ed1t, if that works, you can add it to your startup in System>Preferences>Sessions
[03:46] <ikonia> stutsman: man mount
[03:46] <nnliu> hi, i have no clue why, but everytime i open a window instead of it coming up it always stays in thebackround. any1 know how to fix this?
[03:46] <ed1t> cables, it didnt work
[03:46] <nnliu> hi, i have no clue why, but everytime i open a window instead of it coming up it always stays in thebackround. any1 know how to fix this?
[03:46] <ikonia> stutsman: everything you need it built in aleady
[03:46] <nnliu> oops
[03:46] <ikonia> already
[03:46] <nnliu> sry
[03:46] <Marintia> a5benwillis_:  then sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf what  i need to use?
[03:46] <cables> ed1t, it didn't show up?
[03:46] <ed1t> no
[03:46] <lemonsCC> Marintia: try replacing gedit with mousepad
[03:47] <cables> ed1t, do you have a notification area applet on your panel?
[03:47] <lemonsCC> !mousepad
[03:47] <ubotu> mousepad: simple Xfce oriented text editor. In component main, is optional. Version 0.2.6-0ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 50 kB, installed size 508 kB
[03:47] <a5benwillis_> Marintia: Try nano, pico or vi
[03:47] <Marintia> sudo mousepad /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:47] <stutsman> lufis: Here is the link. I'm using the entry dated July 29th from Felix
[03:47] <lemonsCC> Marintia: should do the trick
[03:47] <Marintia> works thank you
[03:47] <Marintia> :)))))))))
[03:47] <craigbass1976> Hey folks, I've another linux convert this week, and she's using Ubuntu.
[03:47] <stutsman> lufis: http://lunapark6.com/?p=1710
[03:47] <lemonsCC> i am trying to access the internet through my mac (shared internet) it works with windows and not with dapper...any tips?
[03:47] <whta> i can't get my rollercoaster tycoon setup.exe to run in wine :( what tragedy!
[03:47] <nowhere> Hello, my fonts in Ubuntu look really ugly. As far as I can tell, resolution is correct, font settings are correct, and drivers are succesfully installed. I have also compared a screenshot cables friendly provided to me, it indicated something is wrong at my setup. Any idea's on what I could do/try to fix it?
[03:47] <whta> off to the wine channel
[03:47] <cables> craigbass1976, good job!
[03:48] <cables> craigbass1976, that wasn't meant to be sarcastic, if you're wondering...
[03:48] <stutsman> ikonia: ok but how do I do that?
[03:48] <lufis> stutsman: did the original directions not work?
[03:48] <craigbass1976> She runs a distribution company!!!  Epson LX-300+ doesn't work so well, so she'll print invoices on a windows box still.
[03:48] <lufis> stutsman: these entail compiling from src, not something someone new to linux wants to do
[03:49] <stutsman> lufis: not really, the links the original directions used for me to download the files and such were dead.
[03:49] <lufis> stutsman: one sec
[03:49] <cables> ed1t, make sure you have a notification area applet on one of your panels.
[03:49] <ed1t> cables, can i PM you?
[03:49] <craigbass1976> cables, s'ok.  I'm pumped.  In addition to switching to linux, she'll be using a FIFO inventorying system I made with bash and mysql
[03:49] <navreet> anyone here use money management software?
[03:49] <cables> ed1t, sure.
[03:49] <ed1t> cables, i do
[03:49] <craigbass1976> navreet, why do you ask?
[03:49] <cables> ed1t, I don't know how much I'll be able to help you though
[03:50] <navreet> craigbass1976, wanted to know if kmymoney or jgnash would be able to import my account history from the web
[03:50] <stutsman> lufis: I guess its ok then that I"m completely lost at this point. I was feeling kind of dumb there for a secound.
[03:50] <navreet> also, which one was better
[03:50] <ayyub> craigbass1976, nice
[03:50] <craigbass1976> How does it export from the web?  Some weird format, or can you get it in .csv?
[03:50] <lufis> stutsman: nah. try this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009
[03:51] <Marintia> what mean to the bottom of the file
[03:51] <craigbass1976> ayyub, I've got a sourceforge page for Openinvoice, but haven't yet uploaded files.
[03:51] <Marintia> in the top? when start the file ?
[03:51] <stutsman> lufis: should I do anything to undo what I have already done?
[03:51] <a5benwillis_> Marintia: What are you trying to do?
[03:51] <lemonsCC> Marintia: bottom of the file ....keep scrolling =P
[03:51] <Marintia> And finally, add the following to the bottom of the file, unless it already exists elsewhere:
[03:51] <lufis> stutsman: what have you done?

[03:54] <stutsman> lufis: okay so I ran the gedit command and a window popped up. I am assuming I am just adding one of those lines to the bottom of everything and then save and close the file.
[03:54] <Akuma_> lufis: thanks
[03:55] <lufis> stutsman: yes
[03:55] <lufis> stutsman: just follow it from the beginning. reinstalling anything won't hurt
[03:55] <MooCows> how do i log in on 1st boot of Edgy?
[03:55] <lufis> MooCows: did you not set up username/password in the installation?
[03:55] <ayyub> Why would Ubuntu fail to get past the initial stage of the installation? It shows a long messed that I'm unable to really interpret after it gets past the loading bar.
[03:55] <cables> MooCows, you should have set a password in the install
[03:56] <EdgEy> !ask
[03:56] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:56] <ayyub> message*, not messed
[03:56] <stutsman> lufis: interesting... even though I got the file to come up, in the terminal window though I get the following error:  "

[03:57] <craigbass1976> What do people know about broadcom wireless cards and dapper?  I've got it running in Fedora, and am going to try it our with a dapper livecd, but just curious before I get my hands dirty
[03:57] <MooCows> lufis: it only asked for a password & verify password.. it didnt asked for a username during installation
[03:57] <lufis> MooCows: hmm
[03:57] <TrickFinlay2> pirothezero: any ideas?
[03:58] <lemonsCC> MooCows: did it ask for your full name?
[03:58] <craigbass1976> Actually, let's leave it a mystery for a bit.  See you guys in a little while if all goes well.
[03:58] <pirothezero> no =//
[03:58] <stutsman> lufis: do I want to go for the automatic configuration?
[03:58] <hivemind> Excuse me, how can I search for a package that is installed on my system?
[03:58] <lemonsCC> MooCows: double "hmm"
[03:59] <MooCows> lemonsCC: it only asked for computer name.. and on the login screen... it is there on the lower right corner
[03:59] <hivemind> Er
[03:59] <hivemind> Screw it, I'll use synaptic
[03:59] <MooCows> i thought i missed the username part.. so i installed it again and the same..
[03:59] <lemonsCC> reboot into recovery console and add a user
[03:59] <Megaqwerty> how do I delete gpg keys?
[03:59] <MooCows> or did i really nissed something
[03:59] <Ironman273> How can I make Gaim start at boot?
[04:00] <lemonsCC> Ironman273: add it to your sessions list
[04:00] <MooCows> lemonsCC: how do i do it? :: reboot to recovery console?
[04:00] <lemonsCC> Ironman273: system >prefs >session >startup programs
[04:00] <Ironman273> lemonsCC: Where are programs installed? (so I can browse to it)
[04:00] <whta> to unmount an iso, can i use the same syntax with the mount command, but umount instead of mount?
[04:01] <lemonsCC> MooCows: reboot and hold on
[04:01] <stutsman> lufis: I got to the part where you run the sudo apt-get install ntfs-config command and I get the following error:
[04:01] <lemonsCC> Ironman273: they are all over ill find it

[04:01] <lufis> stutsman: i really don't know. i've never done it before. it sounds like a safe bet, so go ahead i guess
[04:01] <hivemind> What is the ubuntu-desktop package do?
[04:01] <lemonsCC> MooCows: when you see the grub menu  it will say recovery mode
[04:01] <MooCows> lemonsCC: i'm sorry... what would i hold on the keyboard?
[04:02] <MooCows> i'm really new to linux
[04:02] <lemonsCC> MooCows: second choice
[04:02] <hivemind> What does* the ubuntu-desktop package do?
[04:02] <lufis> stutsman: did you add the right repositories/
[04:02] <lufis> hivemind: it's a meta-package
[04:02] <stutsman> lufis: I just added one.
[04:02] <lemonsCC> MooCows: i was telling you to wait a minute...i wanted to check something
[04:02] <sayers> Does anyone know of any REALLY GREAT callender packages?
[04:02] <Megaqwerty> how do I delete my expired gpg keys?
[04:02] <lufis> stutsman: why only one?
[04:02] <hivemind> lufis, meaning?
[04:02] <MooCows> lemonsCC: oh.. ok :)
[04:02] <hivemind> lufis, Is it safe to remove?
[04:02] <lemonsCC> MooCows: just restart and you should see a text list...one of the options will say (recovery mode)
[04:02] <lufis> hivemind: uh, no..
[04:02] <Bipolar> sayers: what are you referring to as "calendar packages"?
[04:02] <hivemind> Hm.
[04:03] <pirothezero> heres one for anyone: take MooCows for example and the countless people like him everyday is there a onestop definitive general linux usage guide somewhere on how to use it, i type terms into google and I get crap
[04:03] <stutsman> lufis: at this point it won't let me go on.
[04:03] <MooCows> lemonsCC: after the recovery mode, what would i do?
[04:03] <Megaqwerty> sayers: Mozilla has a good one...hold on...
[04:03] <sayers> Bipolar : Just a calendar that does a nice easy to read job of letting me mark events and todo's etc...
[04:03] <lemonsCC> Ironman273: just a second..i am starting my comp
[04:03] <mcp_> look for lightining extension for thunderbird
[04:03] <MooCows> cables: i'm sorry i cant PM you
[04:03] <MooCows> :)
[04:03] <lufis> hivemind: a meta-package isn't software itself, it lists software to install... when you install the meta package it installs whatever is specified in it. ubuntu-desktop is a bunch of software for the desktop
[04:03] <Bipolar> sayers: ah... Kontact (KDE), Evolution (Gnome)
[04:03] <cables> MooCows, is the answer yes or no?
[04:04] <MooCows> i'm not Ted
[04:04] <BakSlash> LonerVamp, You around?
[04:04] <MooCows> :)
[04:04] <stutsman> lufis: when I run the next command "gksu ntfs-config I get the errror: "sudo: nfts-config: command not found
[04:04] <Bipolar> sayers: as a KDE user, I say Kontact kicks evolutions butt.
[04:04] <lufis> stutsman: re-edit the repositories
[04:04] <hivemind> lufis, Well. I'm trying to remove the original bittorrent that came with ubuntu
[04:04] <stutsman> ok
[04:04] <lufis> stutsman: add all three
[04:04] <Ironman273> lemonsCC: You're on IRC with your computer off?  Your tux-fu is strong.
[04:04] <cables> MooCows, I have a friend named Ted. Every SN or email he has has a cow reference. And he's new to Linux :)
[04:04] <MooCows> lemonsCC: how could i add a new username & password through recovery?
[04:04] <lufis> hivemind: oh, yeah, it's safe to uninstall if it's listed as a dependency
[04:04] <Megaqwerty> sayers: Sunbird is the name, but there isn't a package for it
[04:04] <sayers> bipolar : It's still possible to get KDE ontop of Gnome , I know I used to be able to at Debian
[04:04] <Marintia> kdesu kwrite /usr/bin/startberyl.sh
[04:04] <Marintia> is a command ? and works in xubuntu ?
[04:04] <sayers> Bipolar : I liked Kontact
[04:04] <Bipolar> sayers: yes, that is true. :)
[04:05] <hivemind> lufis, no, the strange thing is that it is not.
[04:05] <cables> Marintia, that works in Kubuntu.
[04:05] <Bipolar> sayers: well then, there you go :)
[04:05] <lemonsCC> Ironman273: two comps =P  the command is "gaim" just use that
[04:05] <hivemind> "The following packages will be REMOVED:
[04:05] <hivemind>   gnome-btdownload ubuntu-desktop
[04:05] <hivemind> "
[04:05] <Marintia> for xubuntu ?? how should do
[04:05] <sayers> Bipolar : but I also like Gnome :-)
[04:05] <lufis> hivemind: what?
[04:05] <MooCows> cables: i do cows too.. but i'm not ted
[04:05] <Marintia> what should do
[04:05] <cables> MooCows, I know that now :)
[04:05] <LonerVamp> BakSlash, yes
[04:05] <sayers> nothing apt-cache search can't do
[04:05] <Ironman273> lemonsCC: Thanks.  That's easy
[04:05] <Bipolar> sayers: If you're looking for a groupware server that works really well with Kontact, check out Citadel.
[04:05] <lemonsCC> MooCows: adduser <username>
[04:05] <whta> to unmount an iso, can i use the same syntax with the mount command, but umount instead of mount?

[04:06] <BakSlash> thnks for the heads up on this irc

[04:06] <lemonsCC> Ironman273: sorry i took a bit i was rebooting

[04:07] <MooCows> btw, the PC i installed with is on the other side of the room
[04:07] <MooCows> :D
[04:08] <cafuego_> ayyub: Probably caused by bad hardware.

[04:09] <ayyub> cafuego_, The previous line begins with <e09da110> agp_put_bridge+0x0/0x20 [agpgart] .... any ideas?
[04:09] <cafuego_> ayyub: agp or video driver
[04:09] <stutsman> lufis: yes I did
[04:09] <whta> to unmount an iso, can i use the same syntax with the mount command, but umount instead of mount?
[04:09] <lufis> stutsman: and ran sudo apt-get update?
[04:09] <sayers> Bipolar : Groupware ?
[04:09] <ayyub> Maybe the video card's bad?
[04:09] <stutsman> lufis: yes

[04:12] <james296> can anyone tell me how Halflife 2 runs on Ubuntu 6.10?
[04:12] <IndyGunFreak> james296, if it does, probably via Wine or Cedega
[04:13] <bimberi> TaTonka: just describe the problem.  If someone can help they'll reply
[04:13] <sayers> Bipolar : Two things, I like evolution and do you know of any E-mail providers than intergrate into the thing, Yahoo doesn't seem to support third party viewers.
[04:13] <TaTonka> oh ok thanks
[04:14] <james296> yeah it does but I wonder how it runs cuz it runs bad on here for some reason, I was thinkin the latest Wine release will have it improved...
[04:14] <Bipolar> sayers: every time I try to integrate evolution into anything, I get frustrated. I don't know what it will integrate other then propriatary servers like Groupwise and Exchange. :(
[04:14] <TaTonka> when i choose "install ubuntu" it goes through the looading..then it gets to this check syetm, i get an "OK" on both checks. Then the screen just goes blank. Can any1 help me with this problem
[04:14] <IndyGunFreak> james296, if it runs that bad under wine, then try Cedega
[04:14] <jlowell> hey folks, I just installed xubuntu 6.06 how can I upgrade to 6.10?
[04:14] <sayers> Bipolar : I mean better yet, do you know of any email providers that support third party viewers other than AOL, they're network drops so much stuff.
[04:15] <IndyGunFreak> jlowell, why woiuld you just install 6.06, and then upgrade, why not just install 6 .10?
[04:15] <Bipolar> jlowell: if you *just* installed it, you probbly should just download the new CD. :)
[04:15] <sayers> their*
[04:15] <james296> but I dont feel like having to pay money for Cedenga...
[04:15] <jlowell> I suppose I could
[04:15] <IndyGunFreak> james296, ten you don't feel like playing halflife under Linux
[04:15] <Bipolar> sayers: gmail does Pop email
[04:15] <james296> plus, I have the game installed over on steam, not the CDs...
[04:15] <pirate-king> anyhbody have a good how to for libdvdcss
[04:15] <sayers> Bipolar : hm, I guess Google's good ;-)
[04:15] <IndyGunFreak> !dvd
[04:15] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[04:16] <james296> theres no reason why I should have to pay to have Halflife 2 run on linux
[04:16] <Bipolar> sayers: I thought yahoo did too....
[04:16] <james296> and no, Halflife runs great
[04:16] <james296> but Halflife 2 doesnt
[04:16] <IndyGunFreak> james296, so you think windows s/w should work on linux for free?
[04:16] <Bipolar> sayers: yahoo does imap, it seems.
[04:16] <zero88> ANYONE please please help me.My desperation is great and i am in such a confusion!!!Out of box edgy eft i installed and had my wireless set up fine for the ipw3945 and can reseive data and packets,but i am unable to send any data or packets?what is stopping me???
[04:16] <Bipolar> sayers: http://yahoo.weblogsinc.com/2006/06/24/yahoo-mail-getting-free-imap-access/
[04:17] <james296> ummm, yeah, as I already payed for the game, and linux is open source meaning I shouldnt need to pay for it
[04:17] <bushblow1> zero88: did you try #ubuntu
[04:17] <TaTonka> when i choose "install ubuntu" it goes through the looading..then it gets to this check syetm, i get an "OK" on both checks. Then the screen just goes blank. what is wrong?
[04:17] <IndyGunFreak> james296, thats not what opensource means
[04:17] <Bipolar> bushblow1: this is #ubuntu :)
[04:17] <bushblow1> oh wait sorry wrong channel, I thought I had another channel open
[04:17] <zero88> bushblowl yes i have, can you help me?
[04:17] <cmp1988> james296: Open Source means free, as in free speech
[04:18] <IndyGunFreak> cmp1988, exactly
[04:18] <MooCows> lemonsCC: how do i reset the root password? the password i supplied during the installation dont seem to work.
[04:18] <Bipolar> zero88: I'm not sure where to start...
[04:18] <IndyGunFreak> some folks don't get that
[04:18] <eontasticness_> bushblow1: did you try #ubuntu?
[04:18] <bushblows> lol
[04:18] <Bipolar> MooCows: Ubuntu has no root password.
[04:18] <cmp1988> what's at #ubuntu?
[04:18] <zero88> bipolar hmm... what could stop me from sending anything but i can receieve packets
[04:18] <james296> I still shouldnt have to pay a monthly fee just to play a Windows game over Ubuntu...
[04:18] <Bipolar> MooCows: the password you provided the install is the users password
[04:18] <TaTonka> what is the #ubuntu you speak of?
[04:18] <bushblows> zero88: I am sorry I do not know
[04:19] <Lunar_Lamp> !sudo | MooCows
[04:19] <ubotu> MooCows: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[04:19] <Bipolar> MooCows: if you need root access, login to your normal user account, then use sudo
[04:19] <stutsman> lufis: this is just not working at all..... can you just help me get to where I can mount my other drive so I can get just read access? Thats all I really need anyway, I just don't have the slighest clue how to go about doing that.
[04:19] <bushblows> TaTonka: it is a place where girls walk naked and beer flows in rivers
[04:19] <nnliu> hi, i have no clue why, but everytime i open a window instead of it coming up it always stays in thebackround. any1 know how to fix this?
[04:19] <cmp1988> james296: You're paying the fee to use the Windows game, regardless whether you actually play it on Windows or Ubuntu
[04:19] <james296> that would be just a waste, because I rarely play games on here, but when I want to, I cant because it doesnt run properly on here
[04:19] <TaTonka> bushblows: zomg why aren't i there?
[04:19] <Bipolar> zero88: first, how did you observe it sending packets but not recieving?
[04:19] <james296> I already PAYED for it though
[04:19] <bushblows> lol, on sudoers can go
[04:19] <cmp1988> james296: that's the beauty of duel-booting ;)
[04:19] <IndyGunFreak> james296, you paid for the game
[04:19] <james296> cant dual boot Vista
[04:20] <bushblows> why would you want to
[04:20] <cmp1988> rofl, vista
[04:20] <IndyGunFreak> james296, why can't you
[04:20] <zero88> bipolar double click connection properties wndow in the top right corner
[04:20] <stutsman> oops looks like lufis is gone
[04:20] <TaTonka> *sigh*
[04:20] <gdb> What doesn't run properly?
[04:20] <MooCows> Lunar_Lamp: !sudo <password>?
[04:20] <james296> because of the boot.ini being completely replaced
[04:20] <Bipolar> zero88: that means absolutly nothing... :)
[04:20] <IndyGunFreak> gdb, he's crying cuz half life 2 doesn't work under linux
[04:20] <pirate-king> E: samba: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
[04:20] <pirate-king>  getting that error
[04:20] <cmp1988> james296: sorry to say bud, but you are better off with XP than Vista
[04:20] <james296> it doesnt show up on the grub menu
[04:20] <sayers> UGH I just had one of those I remember something then forget it , and it was important, because you sit there for a minute worrying about whatever it was.
[04:20] <james296> I know that
[04:20] <stutsman> Is there anybody can that help me get to where I can gain read access to my windows hard drive?
[04:20] <zero88> bipolar :0 ) thats the only thing i know of
[04:20] <Bipolar> zero88: that means it's *trying* to send packets, not that it's actualy sending them. :)

[04:20] <TaTonka> can anybody help me get past the check part of the ubuntu 6.10 install
[04:21] <whta> Ugh, recommend me some great games to pass the time.
[04:21] <zero88> bipolar like the beacon packets it send every second
[04:21] <james296> but I already bought Vista, and now I dont have Windows on here at all due to the fact that you cant dual boot Vista
[04:21] <Bipolar> zero88: at a terminal, run 'dmesg | grep ipw'
[04:21] <Lunar_Lamp> MooCows, if you want to do a command that requires root privellages, (e.g. apt-get update) you prefix the command with "sudo" and then enter your USER password when prompted. Only accounts that have sudo access will be allowed though.
[04:21] <zero88> bipolar k
[04:21] <sayers> whta : Barrage
[04:21] <Bipolar> zero88: see if there are any system messages about the wireless module
[04:21] <IndyGunFreak> james296, maybe you should have 2 PC's
[04:21] <stutsman> thank you IndyGunFreak
[04:21] <sayers> whta : it can pass 30 minutes ish
[04:21] <IndyGunFreak> stutsman, no prob
[04:21] <james296> the one downstairs is a Dell and is my family's
[04:21] <Bipolar> zero88: You might just be missing the right firmware or something...
[04:21] <james296> the one here I had custom made
[04:22] <sayers> whta : Or wait till my game comes out :-) , just gotta get started on it. It will be in Java so everyone can use it :)
[04:22] <cmp1988> Vista is stupid because it wants to be the only OS that boots, messing up GRUB
[04:22] <IndyGunFreak> well, sounds like you have one of two options, ditch linux, go back to xp/vista, or keep linux and go with cedega
[04:22] <whta> haha, ok
[04:22] <zero88> bipolar oh ok, here is what i got   [17179591.640000]  cs: IO port probe 0x4000-0x4fff:<6>ipw3945: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945 Network Connection driver for Linux, 1.1.0mp

 Vista is stupid because it wants to be the only OS that boots, messing up GRUB <== XP was exactly the same :-)
[04:22] <zero88> bipolar oh sorry
[04:23] <cmp1988> Lunar_Lamp: yea, it'll be fixed eventually
[04:23] <Bipolar> zero88: np... you get one free screwup here. :)
[04:23] <MooCows> Lunar_Lamp: the password i supplied during installation doesnt seem to work, i want to set it to another but i have no root access in my newly installed ubuntu PC..
[04:23] <zero88> bipolar ok sorry everyone
[04:23] <sayers> Second screw up is your arm :-)
[04:23] <Bipolar> heh
[04:23] <sayers> etc...
[04:23] <Lunar_Lamp> MooCows, ubuntu doesn't have a root account.
[04:23] <sayers> I made one ;)
[04:23] <sayers> and it does, you just have to give it a password
[04:23] <Bipolar> sayers: it only returned 3 lines?
[04:23] <reuben> question: just installed edgy...my sound isn't working....how do i fix this?
[04:23] <Lunar_Lamp> MooCows, the password you supplied during the installation process was for your user account.
[04:23] <cmp1988> Ubuntu uses the Sudo instead of loggin into root
[04:23] <unop> ubuntu has a root account -- it's just disabled by default
[04:24] <dr_willis> 'direct logging in as the root user is disabled'
[04:24] <Lunar_Lamp> unop, sayers, I was trying to simplify things.
[04:24] <zero88> bipolar so how would i check about the firmware?
[04:24] <sayers> You should activate it.
[04:24] <cmp1988> reuben: how many sound cards are inside your computer?
[04:24] <unop> Lunar_Lamp,  wasnt i simple enough? :>
[04:24] <sayers> If you <3 the terminal that is.
[04:24] <Bipolar> zero88: hmm... let me see. I have an IPW2200
[04:24] <reuben> 1..its a laptop
[04:24] <zero88> bipolar ok
[04:25] <unop> MooCows,  so your user password doesnt work anymore?
[04:25] <TaTonka> when i choose "install ubuntu" it goes through the looading..then it gets to this check syetm, i get an "OK" on both checks. Then the screen just goes blank. Can any1 help me with this problem
[04:26] <Lunar_Lamp> The people looking for vista grub booting: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/grubconf-for-windows-vista-or-xp-dual-boot/
[04:26] <IndyGunFreak> TaTonka, try the alternate install CD
[04:27] <IndyGunFreak> or burn the ISO again, and burn it SLOWER.. 2-4x
[04:27] <TaTonka> i downloaded just one, then burned it then tried it and i got the blank screen, IndyGunFreak
[04:27] <KuriKai> Does anyone have wireless working in fiesty?
[04:27] <IndyGunFreak> TaTonka, at what speed did you burn it?
[04:27] <TaTonka> 32x
[04:27] <TaTonka> i did a check disk, it found no errors
[04:27] <IndyGunFreak> TaTonka, burn it again, at around 4x.. makes a HUGE difference
[04:27] <IndyGunFreak> trust me on this tatonka
[04:28] <Bipolar> zero88: hmm... it seems that the firmware images are stored in /lib/firmware
[04:28] <IndyGunFreak> if burning it slower doesn't work, download the alternate install CD
[04:28] <IndyGunFreak> !alternate
[04:28] <Bipolar> zero88: go there, and tell me whats listed.
[04:28] <ubotu> The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.
[04:28] <zero88> bipolar how bout i locate ipw3945 and paste it in the pastebin
[04:28] <TaTonka> IndyGunFreak, iight man ill try it :) do i need to have any partitons created before i try to install
[04:28] <sayers> no
[04:28] <IndyGunFreak> TaTonka, no, the installer will take you through partitioning
[04:28] <zero88> bipolar 2.6.17-10-generic  2.6.17-11-generic
[04:28] <TaTonka> IndyGunFreak, ok, thats if i can get to it :p
[04:29] <IndyGunFreak> TaTonka, well, if you can't, download the alternate install CD
[04:29] <IndyGunFreak> but more often than not, burning slower works
[04:29] <TaTonka> IndyGunFreak, where can i DL the alternate
[04:29] <IndyGunFreak> TaTonka, same place you downloaded the standard install.

[04:30] <sayers> stutsman : Anything beyond gaming , linux is great for.
[04:30] <stutsman> Indy gun....
[04:30] <KuriKai> stutsman: there is just a small learning curve for linux
[04:30] <KuriKai> stutsmanjust like there was when you first learnt windows
[04:30] <IndyGunFreak> stutsman, ?
[04:30] <sayers> learned *
[04:31] <Indephysis> There wasn't much of a learning curve with Windows
[04:31] <clotarn> just a little help to know about ati driver please
[04:31] <KuriKai> learnt*
[04:31] <sayers> Indephysis : There is
[04:31] <Bipolar> zero88: I found something... is this a fresh install?
[04:31] <Indephysis> When I moved from DOS to 98se it took me about a day to get fine.
[04:31] <sayers> you just dont remember it
[04:31] <IndyGunFreak> Indephysis, there's not much of one with Linux either.
[04:31] <stutsman> It's taken me most of the day just to try to get some kind of access to my windows drive... and everywhere I turn I run into a dead end
[04:31] <IndyGunFreak> once you get the hang of it.
[04:31] <zero88> bipolar...um about 2 weeks now
[04:31] <tanlaan> anyone wanna point me in the direction on how to get the drivers for my nvidia fx5600gt card?
[04:31] <sayers> It takes a day to learn linux if your somewhat more intelegent than a tree.
[04:31] <IndyGunFreak> !nvidia
[04:31] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:31] <nezz> window add help
[04:31] <Bipolar> zero88: just for a sanity check, run "sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-`uname -a`"
[04:32] <zero88> bipolar ok
[04:32] <Wompus-Cat> yeah....i'm having problems with installing the nvidia drivers
[04:32] <Bipolar> zero88: it turns out that the ipw3x need a userspace daemon to work properly
[04:32] <KuriKai> It would be hard for a person to move from ma mac to windows 95 and them trying to access their mac drive
[04:32] <KuriKai> infact it would be imposible
[04:32] <Wompus-Cat> i get them installed and x runs, but after i try to log in gnome won't start
[04:32] <clotarn> I can read that iI need something I do not know where I can find that
[04:32] <Bipolar> zero88: it's in the linux-restricted-modules package for some reason :\
[04:32] <stutsman> IndyGunFreak: I went to the site you sent me to and followed the directions. I still can't access my drive
[04:33] <IndyGunFreak> stutsman, then you probably did something wrong
[04:33] <IndyGunFreak> or skipped a step
[04:33] <zero88> bipolar ah i see. i ran that command but said it couldt find it
[04:33] <Bipolar> zero88: are you running edgy?
[04:33] <zero88> bipolar yes
[04:33] <Bipolar> zero88: ok. what does 'uname -a' tell us?
[04:34] <Bipolar> zero88: you can paste it since it's only one line ;)
[04:34] <zero88> bipolar command not found'
[04:34] <Bipolar> zero88: hmmm
[04:34] <Indephysis> It tells me I don't have the permissions to view hda1
[04:34] <Bipolar> zero88: how about just 'uname' (without the quotes)
[04:34] <reuben> help on soundcard issue please: fresh install of edgy and not getting any sound
[04:34] <zero88> says Linux
[04:34] <nnliu> does anyone know how to make windows that I click on take focus? right now when i open somehting they just pop up behind my current window
[04:34] <Bipolar> zero88: oh.. I see my mistake...
[04:34] <stutsman> IndyGunFreak: I can get inside the hda folder now, but nothing is there.
[04:35] <don_jr> how can I find my ip addy?
[04:35] <Bipolar> zero88: run "sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`"
[04:35] <zero88> bipolar take away the quotes?
[04:35] <IndyGunFreak> stutsman, i don't know...
[04:35] <Wompus-Cat> i get the nvidia drivers installed and x runs, but after i try to log in gnome won't start....i can change x to use nv instead of nvidia, but i have no 3d of course.....when i try to use the nvidia driver when x loads and puts me to the login screen the sound loops over and over again and after logging in it hangs before loading the desktop
[04:35] <zero88> bipolar ok
[04:35] <jsizzle> don_jr: ifconfig
[04:35] <KuriKai> make sure your current window is not set to "on top"

[04:46] <Bipolar> zero88: what happens when you try to connect to an access point?
[04:46] <nnliu> does anyone know how to make windows that I click on take focus? right now when i open somehting they just pop up behind my current window
[04:47] <whta> kjm: i'm pretty noob still with all this so I'm not quite sure exactly what goes on behind what I'm trying to do. I WOULD have deleted that directory if i knew where it was, but for now I just deleted it via menu layout
[04:47] <IndyGunFreak> Marintia, open SPM, one of the menus will have a "repositories" selection, on the first tab, will be several boxes, check them all but source code, then reload synaptic
[04:47] <EnsignRedshirt> foormea: could a file name ever look like 'file.sfv.sfv' or 'file.sfvsdfkj.txt' ?
[04:47] <kjm> whta - usually these things are stored in ~/wine/Programs or something.  Use locate at the command line to find it.
[04:47] <zero88> bipolar i mean it connects, i put in my essid and the number for the password
[04:48] <leetcharmer> hihi, can anyone help me configure my broadcom wireless card in edgy?
[04:48] <Marintia> 10x
[04:48] <zero88> bipolar i get a full signal bar and receive beacon packets i beleive
[04:48] <Marintia> ok
[04:48] <IndyGunFreak> !wireless
[04:48] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:48] <Bipolar> zero88: does it work if you open up the ap so it's unencrypted?
[04:48] <Pelo> Marintia,  to  meny > system > admin > synaptic, under categories click reposisoty,  check all the boxes in the first tab,  then click ok,   it iwll tell you to hit the reload button,   do it ,  then do a search for xchat
[04:48] <zero88> bipolar i have tried that
[04:48] <Quintin> foormea: /join #bash
[04:48] <Quintin> [BrainVoid] : just ask.  I can probably help, what's the issue?
[04:48] <zero88> bipolar should i try that?
[04:48] <[BrainVoid] > I just want to know if anyone could help add my second hard drive...
[04:49] <Bipolar> zero88: I would, just to see if we can narrow the problem down.
[04:49] <[BrainVoid] > I have it hooked up, but I don't think I can get to it.
[04:49] <dr_willis> add it where?
[04:49] <h1st0> !mount | [BrainVoid] 
[04:49] <ubotu> [BrainVoid] : 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
[04:49] <zero88> bipolar ok i will be back in a few
[04:49] <dr_willis> [BrainVoid] ,  is it allready formated/partioned?
[04:49] <kjm> BrainVoid - google fstab.
[04:49] <IndyGunFreak> [BrainVoid] , you probably need to format it in ext3
[04:49] <robtp> whats the feisty channel?
[04:49] <foormea> Quintin, ok :)
[04:49] <don_jr> how do I get ftp to run on ubuntu? I created an ftp folder how do I allow connections to it?
[04:50] <[BrainVoid] > dr_willis, yes.
[04:50] <dr_willis> ftp folder?
[04:50] <IndyGunFreak> robtp, don't think it has one yet
[04:50] <EnsignRedshirt> robtp: #ubuntu+1
[04:50] <Quintin> [BrainVoid] : what do you want to use the drive for?
[04:50] <dr_willis> [BrainVoid] ,  if its partioned, you just edit the /etc/fstab file to mount it how you need it mounted
[04:50] <IndyGunFreak> EnsignRedshirt, how'd they come up with that?...
[04:50] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:50] <[BrainVoid] > IndyGunFreak, okay...but it's already formatted NTFS from XP, and I would really like to NOT lose the stuff on it.
[04:50] <Pelo> [BrainVoid] ,  , install gparted, it will let you know what drives are available and what partitions are on them (/dev/hda1 , or something), you then use that info to mount the hdd
[04:50] <Frogzoo> [BrainVoid] : setup the drive partitions/file system using 'gksu gparted /dev/hd#' - then update your /etc/fstab
[04:51] <dr_willis> !ntfs
[04:51] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse

[04:51] <ubotu> [: please see above
[04:51] <[BrainVoid] > thank you dr_willis
[04:51] <[BrainVoid] > I'll check that out right now
[04:51] <siavash> i dont see sda in me dev folder
[04:51] <Pelo> siavash,  usb what ?
[04:51] <bruenig> Wow that is one ambitious tab completion attempt
[04:51] <EnsignRedshirt> IndyGunFreak: No idea, I'm just echoing what I've seen before.  But, you, +1 for the next version, whatever it may be.
[04:51] <Bipolar> Pelo: Frogzoo: you don't need gparted... just run "cat /proc/partitions"
[04:51] <don_jr> dr_willis directory, not folder.  I have created /home/ftp to host my ftp files, but I can't get connected to it, unless that's now how I'm to do it, I can't find help files on it that work yet.
[04:51] <EnsignRedshirt> s/you,/you know,/
[04:52] <IndyGunFreak> EnsignRedshirt, yeah, i know its not you're fault thats what its called...lol, i just don't understand why its just not called Feisty?
[04:52] <siavash> Pelo: i just want to put in a USB mouse, but whatever i plug in, doesnt light up anything. its like it gets no power when ubnutu starts
[04:52] <IndyGunFreak> or something,
[04:52] <dr_willis> don_jr,  you did install a ftp server?
[04:52] <EnsignRedshirt> IndyGunFreak: Because there are not generally channels for each version.
[04:52] <IndyGunFreak> EnsignRedshirt, i jus tthought of that...lol
[04:52] <Pelo> siavash,  look up your mouse model in the forum,  there is a good change you'll find an howto in there
[04:52] <don_jr> dr_willis guess not, thought there was one came with ubuntu directly...I'll find one
[04:52] <IndyGunFreak> sorry, been taken dope for pain tonight
[04:53] <jfk55555> does anyone know about ubuntu overheating on notebooks
[04:53] <IndyGunFreak> Pelo, to what forum?
[04:53] <honerdizzle> IndyGunFreak:  have you verizfied that the mouse works outside of gentoo?
[04:53] <dr_willis> don_jr,  use of ftp is sort of being less imporntant/phasesout. ssh can do file transfers  safer.
[04:53] <EnsignRedshirt> don_jr: I'm pretty sure openssh-server provide sftp access.
[04:53] <IndyGunFreak> honerdizzle, ? i have o clue what you're talking about
[04:53] <nnliu> does anyone know how to make windows that I click on take focus? right now when i open somehting they just pop up behind my current window
[04:54] <Pelo> IndyGunFreak,  the ubuntu forum,  great resource for hardware installation,  ppl put how they got their stuff to work in there
[04:54] <honerdizzle> sorry indy got the wrong name
[04:54] <IndyGunFreak> Pelo, oh, you can never send to many people there.
[04:54] <IndyGunFreak> Pelo, i really like hte Ubuntu forum at LQ
[04:54] <don_jr> I need to transfer files from this ubuntu box to one with winxp, can I do that with ssh transfers?
[04:54] <IndyGunFreak> lot of smart folks there
[04:54] <zero88> bipolar
[04:54] <dr_willis> don_jr,  go get 'winscp' for windows
[04:55] <[BrainVoid] > dr_willis, IndyGunFreak, Frogzoo, Pelo, Quintin, thank you. I got it mounted.
[04:55] <IndyGunFreak> Pelo, i probably learned more on searching LQ, than probably most other sites
[04:55] <dr_willis> don_jr,  or use samba
[04:55] <Pelo> don_jr,  use a usb flash drive , it's easyer
[04:55] <IndyGunFreak> [BrainVoid] , good.
[04:55] <zero88> bipolar that was weird, i couldnt even get a signla bar without having a WEP
[04:55] <Pelo> IndyGunFreak,  got a link ?
[04:55] <don_jr> pelo buy me one and I will! lol
[04:55] <IndyGunFreak> Pelo,   http://www.linuxquestions.org
[04:55] <IndyGunFreak> there's a great forum there
[04:55] <Pelo> don_jr,  burn to a cd ?
[04:55] <[BrainVoid] > I shall return if I run into any other issues I can't figure out myself!
[04:55] <[BrainVoid] > Thanks!
[04:55] <don_jr> dr_willis I'll look into winscp, but what is samba?
[04:55] <dr_willis> !samba
[04:55] <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
[04:55] <don_jr> pelo no burner on this box or I would hav done that longtime ago hehe
[04:56] <dr_willis> samba = the windows 'network neighborhood' clone/smb/ shared folder method.
[04:56] <IndyGunFreak> !linuxquestions
[04:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about linuxquestions - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:56] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:56] <don_jr> thanks for the ubotu there dr_willis I'll get it figured out.  sheesh windows is annoying
[04:56] <dr_willis> don_jr,  windows is VERY annoying
[04:56] <siavash> Pelo: I looked up my mouse, and everyone says it plugs in and works fine. The light on the wireless USB dongle doesnt even come on, so i think it might be a problem with not recognizing any USB ports
[04:56] <IndyGunFreak> windows is the devil
[04:56] <whta> hey guys. i added a few wine commands to my application list (for zsnes and cave story) and i need to edit one.. but i forgot how. help?
[04:56] <dr_willis> don_jr,  for just transfering a few files  ssh and winscp is rather easy
[04:56] <Bipolar> zero88: set the AP to have no encryption, restart it. then restart the laptop, just to be sure.
[04:57] <Bipolar> zero88: something is not right. :\
[04:57] <chorse> IndyGunFreak: No, that's Bill. Windows's just hell.
[04:57] <IndyGunFreak> chorse, lol
[04:57] <zero88> bipolar ok so restart my ap and computer
[04:57] <Pelo> siavash,  try diffrent port and also try a different usb device,  a hardware problem is not impossible
[04:57] <Bipolar> zero88: usualy the encryption option doesn't really change until the ap is restarted.
[04:57] <TaTonka> hey IndyGunFreak
[04:57] <IndyGunFreak> TaTonka, yes?
[04:58] <zero88> bipolar ah i see, but a little info, on dapper it worked fine with the wep
[04:58] <don_jr> dr_willis okay I'll look that up, not sure how to run the ssh, but will try, as for samba if I can get it to work out, this is on my home network, could come in handy.
[04:58] <chorse> (although there aren't any reports of fatal exceptions in hell)
[04:58] <IndyGunFreak> chorse, probably no blue screens either..lol
[04:58] <dr_willis> don_jr,  the 'using samba' book is available from the packages - its worth a read
[04:58] <TaTonka> i reburned it, then put the disk in, then "press a key to reboot" comes up, and thats all that happens
[04:58] <EnsignRedshirt> don_jr: I agree with dr_willis.  I have used winscp on a windows computer to transfer files to and from an ubuntu box (with openssh-server installed).  Works fine.
[04:59] <IndyGunFreak> TaTonka, does it tell you to remove the CD?
[04:59] <Bipolar> zero88: yeah, if it works on edgy without wep, then we know that wep is the problem and can work from there.
[04:59] <TaTonka> IndyGunFreak, no
[04:59] <TaTonka> IndyGunFreak, it just says "press a key to reboot"
[04:59] <zero88> bipolar k brb
[04:59] <omeil> IndyGunFreak: ello ello :D, does Xchat have a user list?
[04:59] <IndyGunFreak> yeah, its in the lower left.. where it says number of users
[05:00] <IndyGunFreak> click it, and the user list comes up
[05:00] <omeil> i can't see itlol
[05:00] <don_jr> dr_willis apt get isn't working for samba.  I'll look up helpon the ssh server
[05:00] <IndyGunFreak> TaTonka, i have no idea what would be causing that.
[05:00] <omeil> oh mines on the right lol
[05:00] <TaTonka> IndyGunFreak, i just remvoed the cd and put it back in and rebboted, its working now
[05:00] <IndyGunFreak> omeil, yeah, x-chat is on the right, xchat-gnome is the button on the lower left
[05:01] <Administrator> heh those who run firefox should check out the chatzilla (IRC) addon pretty neat
[05:01] <IndyGunFreak> TaTonka, well, start installing fast, sounds like you have a picky drive there..lol
[05:01] <omeil> IndyGunFreak: why do u like xchat-gnome better?
[05:01] <dr_willis> !samba
[05:01] <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
[05:01] <IndyGunFreak> omeil, cuz x-chat feels like i'm getting stomped by golf cleats
[05:01] <IndyGunFreak> Pelo, later
[05:01] <omeil> hmm you have a point there :D
[05:01] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[05:01] <IndyGunFreak> omeil, i don't see the appeal of irssi either
[05:02] <omeil> IndyGunFreak: im downloading the Q3Arena instalaiont binary for linux :)
[05:02] <TaTonka> IndyGunFreak, ok it went to the blank screen.,..again
[05:02] <IndyGunFreak> and the people that use #ubuntu through GAIM, i don't get that either
[05:02] <IndyGunFreak> TaTonka, ok.. was that the alternate install, or did you just burn the other one slower?
[05:02] <dr_willis> IndyGunFreak,  or the people on YahooMessenger Chat rooms in the Linux help rooms..
[05:02] <TaTonka> IndyGunFreak, burned it slower
[05:03] <IndyGunFreak> TaTonka, i'd prolly try the alternate install CD
[05:03] <IndyGunFreak> its a text based install, but its pretty easy
[05:03] <omeil> im gonna tryt it through gaim lol
[05:03] <TSMS> IndyGunFreak
[05:03] <TSMS> question
[05:03] <TaTonka> IndyGunFreak, but in the blank scree, its like the computer hibernates....i can press the on button and it doesnt turn off, it just checks cd again
[05:03] <IndyGunFreak> dr_willis, i hate yahoo chatrooms..lol
[05:03] <zero88_> bipolar hahahaha  HAHAHAHAHA!!!! ita aliiiiiiive, so... i guess it is the wep huh?
[05:03] <TSMS> you talking about Ubuntu text based install?
[05:04] <IndyGunFreak> TaTonka,  i don't know friend, like i said, next logical step, is to try the alternate install cd
[05:04] <IndyGunFreak> TSMS, yes, the alternate install cd
[05:04] <bayziders> I installed sun java through apt get but now when i try to install limewire it says i dont have it installed can some help?
[05:04] <IndyGunFreak> bayziders, why not just install froswire?

[05:05] <tplinker> hello, i seem to be having a problem with the instillation of ubuntu, the live cd is properly made....i have bios set to boot from cd, i get to the initial screen choose install/live cd option, it partially boots then freezes thats it....

[05:05] <bayziders> indygunfreak:cause im stupid and forgot it existed ktnx
[05:05] <TaTonka> IndyGunFreak, ok, thats just what it says in the check before the blank screen
[05:05] <Bipolar> zero88: interesting.
[05:06] <IndyGunFreak> TaTonka, i don't know, like i said, it sounds like the next logical step is the alternate install cd
[05:06] <Bipolar> zero88: you are using WEP and not WPA, right?
[05:06] <omeil> IndyGunFreak: ok Gaim didn't work for me :) IRC told me that my nick name wasn't registers 0_O which it is BASTARDS
[05:06] <zero88_> bipolar ya its WeP-open

[05:14] <stooges> hi.. i know i'm new.. is linux able to use tar.gz file?
[05:14] <omeil> IndyGunFreak: may god have mercy on your soul.
[05:14] <Quintin> stooges: yes.
[05:14] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[05:14] <bruenig> use?
[05:14] <TSMS> Quintin I am waiting
[05:14] <TSMS> quite a while
[05:14] <omeil> Solitaire is the devil to me
[05:14] <IndyGunFreak> stooges, as long as you cn compile it
[05:14] <stooges> okay.. i'm trying to use a icon theme..  http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=31618
[05:14] <Jrabbit> Fresh edgy install: ndiswrapper doesn't work, I can't make uninstall it. I don't know the package name apt-get remove ndiswrapper fails
[05:15] <Jrabbit> I did it in 54 min on dapper
[05:15] <stooges> i downloaded it saved to desktop.. now i wonder what is right program to open tar.gz
[05:15] <Jrabbit> *5
[05:15] <omeil> atm i can play Jedi Academy and Quake 3 Arena on Ubuntu with no problems :)
[05:15] <nnliu> does anyone know how to make windows that I click on take focus? right now when i open somehting they just pop up behind my current window
[05:15] <Jrabbit> Its taking me weeks to make this work on Edgy
[05:15] <Quintin> TSMS: You've waited 5 hours on the forums and five minutes here.  Really, be quiet.  Ask again after 20 minutes, but don't keep repeating.
[05:15] <IndyGunFreak> Jrabbit, what is taking weeks?
[05:15] <bruenig> Jrabbit, ndiswrapper-common or ndiswrapper-utils
[05:15] <Jrabbit> ok
[05:15] <Jrabbit> That helps
[05:15] <Quintin> I pwn at JKII:JA
[05:15] <CB4chile> are penguins smart?
[05:15] <Jrabbit> I can't compile version 1.39
[05:16] <omeil> and i have no more space. because i would install NWN,Vietcong,Painkiller,WoW,Diablo2 and a whole heap more :D
[05:16] <IndyGunFreak> you know, in my experience, all of my hardware that i set up under Dapper, I set it up exactly the same way under Edgy
[05:16] <bayziders> I installed frostwire and it wont open whats wrong
[05:16] <TaTonka> CB4chile, no, they can't fly
[05:16] <IndyGunFreak> I hope Feisty is that smooth
[05:16] <cafuego_> CB4chile: Relatively. They're certainly very smelly.
[05:16] <TSMS> Quintin I have been trying for 3 days
[05:16] <TSMS> not 5 hours
[05:16] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: hey hey
[05:16] <Quintin> !java | bayziders
[05:16] <ubotu> bayziders: 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
[05:16] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1, lol, did you get it working?
[05:16] <Quintin> TSMS: You asked on forums 5 hours ago.
[05:16] <omeil> IndyGunFreak: is ubuntu supposed to state my Video card in the device manager?
[05:16] <IndyGunFreak> or did you have to install again?..lol
[05:16] <Quintin> TSMS: honestly, running like that off usb is ill-advised.  using another disk or partition is best
[05:17] <TSMS> why?
[05:17] <IndyGunFreak> omeil, i think so, it does mine.. i think.. i'm not at my linux box right now.
[05:17] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: negative, screen is still not right
[05:17] <TSMS> will it hamper it that much?
[05:17] <Jrabbit> IndyGunFreak: Wireless
[05:17] <Quintin> TSMS: flash is slow.  and it will degrade it running in that manner.
[05:17] <buuyo_> man 5 interfaces points me to /usr/share/doc/ifupdown/examples/ for examples of how to use mapping. There are a bunch of files in there, and none of them seem to be the sort of script mapping requires in interfaces. =o
[05:17] <omeil> IndyGunFreak: on mine it shows unknown lol. but it works perfectly.
[05:17] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1, i thik you're gonna have to learn to live with the lower res...lol
[05:17] <Jrabbit> bruenig: I'll try those
[05:17] <bruenig> Jrabbit, k
[05:17] <Quintin> TSMS: not to mention the fact that pretty much 90% of bioses have screwed up usb boot implementations
[05:17] <TSMS> its a hard drive
[05:17] <IndyGunFreak> Jrabbit, yeah, i've heard wireless is hard under Linux,
[05:17] <Jrabbit> bruenig: Any advice as to why the install isn't working?
[05:17] <TSMS> not a memory stick
[05:17] <stooges> how can i open tar.gz?
[05:17] <IndyGunFreak> i've not tried it though(yet)
[05:17] <bruenig> Jrabbit, none
[05:18] <bayziders> Quintin: I already have java installed.
[05:18] <Jrabbit> bruenig: :(
[05:18] <buuyo_> Where can I find the appropriate example? Or at least an explanation of what "string" the mapping script is required to print?
[05:18] <Jrabbit> k
[05:18] <Quintin> stooges: double clikc on it, smart guy.
[05:18] <Jrabbit> BBL
[05:18] <Shrimpy1> well in two weeks i can meet with either a senior or junior that majors in computer science and have him fix it. lol he did it last time :)
[05:18] <Quintin> bayziders: error messages?
[05:18] <Jrabbit> IndyGunFreak:  VERY
[05:18] <TSMS> just using a USB connection since it is easier to connect than carrying around a SATA cable and HD
[05:18] <IndyGunFreak> Good luck with it
[05:18] <omeil> I'm surprised that ubuntu has good usb :) i stuck in my usb flash drive and it just popped up instantly. i was expecting an issue but it worked :D
[05:18] <Jrabbit> IndyGunFreak: I think laying Cat5 would be faster <.<
[05:18] <bayziders> None it just wont open
[05:18] <IndyGunFreak> Jrabbit, lol, i think you're right.
[05:18] <omeil> same with my webcam. stuck it in and walla!!
[05:18] <Jrabbit> IndyGunFreak: More time/money concervative too >_<
[05:19] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: but i think i'm going to ask around on here
[05:19] <Jrabbit> ciao
[05:19] <IndyGunFreak> i ran 3 PC's in my house w/ cat 5.. but thats because i don't trust wireless security
[05:19] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1, good luck, i don't know whats causing your prob.
[05:19] <stooges> okay i open it.. i know that but i mean to use it as a icon theme?
[05:19] <Shrimpy1> hello great people of ubuntu i have a problem with my res and i was wondering if you could help me :)
[05:19] <omeil> IndyGunFreak: I'm in cat 5 aswell. 4 comps, screw going wireless.

[05:19] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1, try posting your problem in the Ubuntu forum at http://www.linuxquestions.org
[05:19] <don_jr> why can't I copy/paste files off of a cd into a directory?
[05:19] <IndyGunFreak> omeil, i wan tto with my laptop, but i don't trust wireless security yet.
[05:19] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: do they respond fast?

[05:20] <stooges> sorry
[05:20] <bruenig> Shrimpy, don't listen to that
[05:20] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1, the ubuntu forum there is pretty active..
[05:20] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1, or you could post it in the newbie forum
[05:20] <omeil> IndyGunFreak: well its secure if u password it. on XP anyways.
[05:20] <IndyGunFreak> just don't post it i more than 1 place
[05:20] <don_jr> bruenig I thought so too, butit won't let me. paste is greyed out in every folder I've tried
[05:20] <IndyGunFreak> omeil, i don't think anything is secure on Windows.
[05:20] <bruenig> don_jr, well where are you trying to paste it
[05:20] <bayziders> Quintin: I just re installed java and it still aint working.
[05:20] <Shrimpy1> yeah i think i m going to the newbie forum IndyGunFreak
[05:21] <omeil> IndyGunFreak: but i think someone might still be able to use your internet connection from outside :D it just limits the hard drive access which is in my opinion pretty stupid.
[05:21] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: what side do yo live on (not to be personal or anything)
[05:21] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1, lot of smart folks there.. someon ca n probably help you, just dont "irritate" a mod, by posting in more than one forum

[05:25] <omeil> Indygunfreak: i have an old version tho.
[05:25] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig, or maybe it was webca support

[05:32] <IndyGunFreak> MybEvil_, 99% of the time under Linux, it will say that
[05:32] <teajay> but I have a really weird question though... like I said I installed Network Manager Gnome first through apt-get and then removed it with SPM then reinstalled it with SPM and it said it should be listed in Applications>Internet... But it isn't.
[05:32] <teajay> Anyone know what's the problem?
[05:32] <omeil> whta: are you doing it with sudo?

[05:40] <stooges> apple's file format?
[05:40] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: yes, sir?
[05:41] <SkippyX> anybody know if the medibuntu repos are down?
[05:41] <IndyGunFreak> you're gonna get flamed for not saying what youv'e already tried in your post...lol
[05:41] <IndyGunFreak> those folks are anal.
[05:41] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[05:41] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: is it bad i hate mac's (although i love their commericals)
[05:41] <ayyub> Memtest86 will usually take a long time, right?
[05:41] <Madpilot> ayyub, yes.
[05:41] <kalorin> ok, now I'm >< close to going back to XP
[05:41] <ayyub> Kay.
[05:41] <bruenig> SkippyX, they are not
[05:41] <kalorin> wine will not run photoshop
[05:42] <kalorin> and I can't for the life of me get vmware to run
[05:42] <whta> will this IEs4linux work with a game i install with wine?
[05:42] <SkippyX> dang - having an impossible time updating my source.list
[05:42] <posingaspopular> kalorin: why don't you just use gimp?
[05:42] <omeil_> Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate loadable module in module_path: "libpixmap.so", i did it and it was  saying this all over
[05:42] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1, i kinda agree with you...  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgZQ_It0weI
[05:42] <stooges> because i want to install a program that is mac.. i want see if it would work in linux
[05:42] <feryana> Hi I'm trying to install ubuntu in a new pc.  It's a Core Duo... the 6.06 doesnt go thru, and now I'm trying to install 6.10 but I get /bis/sh: can't access tty: job turned off... can someone sayme why?
[05:42] <Arcane> This is driving me insane.
[05:42] <kalorin> posingaspopular the problem isnt' just photoshop really
[05:42] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1, watch that youtube video, i nearly wetmyself
[05:42] <SkippyX> msg I get: " Could not connect to media.blutkind.org:80 (216.55.142.216), connection timed out"
[05:42] <blaze> Hello all,
[05:42] <kalorin> yahoo messenger, media monkey
[05:42] <kalorin> there's just too many things that don't run under linux at this point
[05:43] <blaze> but we still love it :P
[05:43] <kalorin> and i figured I'd just vmware a windows instance and have them if I needed them until I found replacements
[05:43] <bruenig> yahoo messenger? why would you use that
[05:43] <bruenig> gaim
[05:43] <kalorin> but I can't afford the time to try to figure that out
[05:43] <Jrabbit> gaim.
[05:43] <Frogzoo> feryana: some few installs need you to pass the kernel option 'acpi=off' from the grub menu - boot the CD & hit F6 at the menu - edit the kernel line & add that option, might help
[05:43] <blaze> :(
[05:43] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: yeah its great, ... now i know i need to install java back on here
[05:43] <kalorin> I haven't tried gaim
[05:43] <ethan> when i play my cd player i can't hear any sound
[05:43] <HockeyInJune> i need the PPPoE program to get on the internet with linux, anyone know where I can find it?
[05:43] <Jrabbit> use gaim

[05:43] <Jrabbit> Hockey
[05:43] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: yes, sir
[05:43] <feryana> i'll try
[05:43] <bruenig> kalorin, well don't complain, if you need some alternatives, ask but don't complain
[05:43] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1, i love it
[05:43] <Arcane> I need an alternative to MY SYSTEM NOT WORKING.
[05:44] <posingaspopular> HockeyInJune: sudo pppoeconf
[05:44] <bruenig> !caps
[05:44] <ubotu> PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[05:44] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: its the one where everything was filed with a mac
[05:44] <bruenig> !patience
[05:44] <ubotu> The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[05:44] <IndyGunFreak> Music_Shuffle, i was wondering where you'd been, i figured your new install must not have went well
[05:44] <kalorin> bruenig, I totally understand but I've literally spent 2 days trying to et vmware running
[05:44] <bruenig> !attitude
[05:44] <Frogzoo> will they be releasing feisty April 1?
[05:44] <HockeyInJune> OH
[05:44] <kalorin> frustrated as hell at this point
[05:44] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1, no.. even better
[05:44] <HockeyInJune> thnx a lot
[05:44] <HockeyInJune> !
[05:44] <Shrimpy1> mmm
[05:44] <Music_Shuffle> IndyGunFreak, apparently, my DVD writer was the problem =[
[05:44] <posingaspopular> np
[05:44] <Arcane> I'm literally twitching from this crap. :\
[05:44] <IndyGunFreak> Music_Shuffle, now that sucks.
[05:44] <SkippyX> Wow - that's worked up.
[05:44] <bruenig> kalorin, some quick google searches and you probably could have found better alternatives, what programs do you need
[05:44] <Music_Shuffle> Yeah.
[05:44] <ethan> will any1 answer my question?
[05:44] <IndyGunFreak> twitching?..lol
[05:44] <ethan> when i play my cd player i can't hear any sound
[05:45] <kalorin> i need something to do canon raw -> adobe dng's
[05:45] <bruenig> it doesn't make sense to run linux, just to get a virtual windows machine for programs that have alternatives, why even leave windows if you are going to do that
[05:45] <blaze> RythemBox's Ambient Radio station rocks !
[05:45] <IndyGunFreak> ethan, are your speakers on?
[05:45] <don_jr> how can I get sudo permissions in the gnome interface?
[05:45] <ethan> yes
[05:45] <cafuego_> Arcane: the systray thing?
[05:45] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig, i agree
[05:45] <kalorin> bruenig, to buy time to find a good alternative
[05:45] <Arcane> Yeah
[05:45] <kalorin> most things I do I can do under linux, but some things I just can't
[05:45] <IndyGunFreak> kalorin, there's a bazillion alternatives
[05:45] <kalorin> at least at this point
[05:45] <stooges> is it possible to use .dmg in linux?
[05:45] <kalorin> .dmg?
[05:45] <cafuego_> Arcane: Right click the panel, choose "Add to panel...' and add a 'Notification Area'.
[05:45] <bruenig> don_jr, you mean like gksudo nautilus
[05:45] <ethan> when i open volume control it's said no volume control elements or devices found
[05:46] <joebob777as7> ethan sounds like your audio drivers are busted.. what card do you have or if it's onboard sound what mobo?
[05:46] <ethan> so how can i do IndyGunFreak ?
[05:46] <whta> i just installed ies4linux but i have no idea how to run it!
[05:46] <IndyGunFreak> cafuego thats not what he wants
[05:46] <kalorin> well and we have some vpn stuff and apps that are windows only at owrkt hat I wanted to try
[05:46] <Arcane> I don't have a "Add to panel"
[05:46] <IndyGunFreak> ethan, you got me.. i was just starting with the easiest thing first
[05:46] <don_jr> bruenig I'm trying to save a text file and it's told me I don't have permissions to save that file, how can I fix that?
[05:46] <IndyGunFreak> Arcane, if you right click your panel, you will have
[05:46] <Arcane> I don't have any form of tray or manager whatsoever.
[05:46] <okih-imus> Is there something wrong with the GRUB bootloader for Ubuntu?
[05:46] <bruenig> kalorin, sudo apt-get install exifprobe
[05:46] <feryana> frogzoo I added the command after the -- and I still receiving the same message
[05:46] <Arcane> So please stop telling me I do. :D
[05:46] <joebob777as7> whta it should create an icon for you unless you did it as sudo or root
[05:46] <joebob777as7> whta you must install it as your user
[05:46] <cafuego_> Arcane: open a terminal and check that 'gnome-panel' is running.
[05:46] <mordaunt> is archive.ubuntu.com down?
[05:47] <bruenig> don_jr, open the text file with gksudo, for instance, gksudo gedit /path/to/whatever.txt

[05:51] <crimsun> ethan: then tell me the URL
[05:51] <kalorin> nice
[05:51] <bruenig> mordaunt, 91.189.89.6
[05:51] <kalorin> no wonder I've been having so much trouble finding things
[05:51] <ethan> crimsun,  u want  to take a look?
[05:52] <crimsun> ethan: have you posted the info I requested?
[05:52] <IndyGunFreak> Shrimpy1, did you get flash to work?
[05:52] <Arcane> cafuego,  dpkg returned an error or something to that close proximity
[05:52] <bruenig> kalorin, you should probably enable the multiverse repository too
[05:52] <kalorin> k
[05:52] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: now i need java lol
[05:52] <IndyGunFreak> naa, not for youtube
[05:52] <ethan> argh i don't know how to do this one crimsun  i'm newbie about linux
[05:52] <brophat> if something is not in the package list then you just manual install it and it does not get added to the add/remove listing?
[05:52] <kalorin> and I might do that where?
[05:52] <Jrabbit> !java Shrimpy1
[05:52] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about java shrimpy1 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:52] <IndyGunFreak> youtube just needs Flash

[05:53] <Shrimpy1> i'm pretty sure the pacakage manager has it
[05:53] <crimsun> ethan: open Applications> Accessories> Terminal, type ``lspci -vvn'', and paste all the output onto http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[05:53] <whta> ok! i got my ies4linux working.. but how can i enable activex?
[05:53] <Shrimpy1> along with add/remove programs
[05:53] <IndyGunFreak> ok, nite all.
[05:53] <kalorin> oh foudn it
[05:53] <kalorin> in synaptic
[05:53] <ethan> aww
[05:53] <ethan> k
[05:53] <stooges> i have a file on the dekstop.. but i want to mount it, but it says only root can do that.. what am i doing wrong?
[05:53] <sivik> some one a while back told me where to download a script that installed the correct ati drivers that made my xpress 200m finally work correctly and i had to reformat my machine and i forgot to save that script, could someone tell me where i woudl find it?
[05:54] <bruenig> kalorin, well in command: echo "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy multiverse" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:54] <Shrimpy1> IndyGunFreak: going to sleep?
[05:54] <Arcane> aha, got it
[05:54] <kalorin> hwo about just check the softare restricted by cpoyriht or legal isues ( multiverse ) in synaptic?
[05:54] <bruenig> kalorin, commands are easier
[05:55] <kalorin> heh
[05:55] <kalorin> in some way
[05:55] <kalorin> ways
[05:55] <omeil_> has anyone succesfully installed Quake 3 arena?
[05:55] <yoink> can someone link me to the list of alternate apt mirrors?
[05:55] <brophat> and if yoiu don't find what you want in the package list you have to install it the old fashioned way? And it does not get listed in the remove list?
[05:55] <tm4-> hey guys - new to #ubuntu, thought i'd say hey
[05:55] <Arcane> This is making me very angry.
[05:55] <ethan> yes crimsun  i already paste
[05:55] <bruenig> kalorin, well if you just copy and paste something, that is easier than me trying to explain how to do it in synaptic, with the click this and then click this and so forth and so on. Also I don't know synaptic having never used it
[05:55] <kalorin> we use redhat at work and at home debian on the server and once that was set up no occasion to really mess with apt
[05:55] <kalorin> sure
[05:55] <tahsin> i have flash and java installed in my firefox but still i cant play youtube videos it says"Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Macromedia's Flash Player. Get the latest flash player."

[05:57] <daxxar> Anyone know of something like UnionFS or AUFS that's a bit more mature (or atleast stable)? I've read a lot of places that people recommend AUFS over UnionFS because it's faster and more stable, but I'm getting kernel Oops'es at umount etc, so I'm hoping for an alternative. :-)
[05:57] <nomasteryoda|w> how long should a 250gb hd take to do a "forced check"?
[05:57] <bruenig> tahsin, do you
[05:57] <Arcane> Nah, I'm honestly completely abandoning this
[05:57] <nomasteryoda|w> ext3
[05:57] <bruenig> tahsin, what does it say in about:plugins

[06:04] <u2live79> thanks
[06:04] <crimsun> ethan: we don't even support that version anymore.
[06:04] <omeil_> has anyone ever installed Quake 3 arena for linux?
[06:04] <ethan> ya crimsun  and i updated it
[06:04] <crimsun> ethan: to...?
[06:05] <holly2hottie> hey, I have a question... while running gnome on edgy my Xserver seems to be closing completly and restarts for no reason at all, is there anyone that can help me?
[06:05] <kelsin> omeil_: yes
[06:05] <tahsin> i have flash installed but cant run youtube videos
[06:05] <u2live79> is there any kind of beginers guide over view of linux/ubuntu that might be helpful?
[06:05] <joebob777as7> anyone know of a good slideshow application to make videos out of pictures?
[06:05] <ethan> crimsun,  i used ubuntu update manager
[06:05] <lasindi> Hi everyone, I'm trying to change the volume using the GNOME panel applet, and it doesn't appear to work. I know it's a problem in GNOME because alsamixer works fine. This only started recently, so I suspect a problem in a recent update; has anyone else had this experience?
[06:05] <crimsun> ethan: lsb_release -r
[06:05] <omeil_> umm whats the command to move files from a directory?
[06:06] <tahsin> u2live79: www.ubuntuguide.org
[06:06] <ethan> crimsun,  it's still 5.04
[06:06] <u2live79> hey thanks!!
[06:06] <chorse> lasindi: are you using a audigy value card?
[06:06] <macd> u2live79, http://www.ubuntuguide.org  keep in mind that is the unofficial starter guide.
[06:06] <ethan> crimsun,  i think it's only update the newer package 5.04 :(
[06:06] <crimsun> ethan: um, then you haven't dist-upgraded properly (or completely)
[06:06] <Shrimpy1> hello can anyone help me with 915resolution?
[06:06] <lasindi> chorse: no, I am using an Aureal Vortex
[06:07] <crimsun> Shrimpy1: why don't you just use xserver-xorg-video-i810-modesetting (edgy)?
[06:07] <MrWGW> good evening
[06:07] <chorse> lasindi: i used to have the same problem with an audigy value, alsa didn't support that card very well
[06:07] <MrWGW> where do I download an Edgy-compatible Blubuntu artwork package?
[06:07] <johnc> good evening MrWGW
[06:07] <ethan> crimsun,  can i use thumbdrive to install ubuntu new version? cuz i just downloaded ubuntu 6.01 and i don't have any new cd right now
[06:07] <MrWGW> I did this before, then inadvertantly b0rked my install
[06:08] <holly2hottie>  hey, I have a question... while running gnome on edgy w/ all the aviliable updates my Xserver seems to be closing completly and restarts for no reason at all, is there anyone that can help me?
[06:08] <Shrimpy1> crimsun: i've tried that. and it gave me options in the pref>resolution. but they are bigger as in 640x800 i need 1200x800
[06:08] <crimsun> Shrimpy1: did you remove the Mode line(s) from xorg.conf in Section "Screen"?
[06:08] <shatrat> lasindi, I had a similar problem. Have you tried editing the preferences for the gnome volume slider?  It might be controlling the wrong one.  I had to set mine to PCM
[06:09] <Shrimpy1> crimsun: negative. was i supposed to ?
[06:09] <lasindi> shatrat: chorse: ah, I think I found it; I have multiple sound cards and it's using the wrong one
[06:09] <johnc> MrWGW I think you can get blubuntu @ gnome-look.org
[06:09] <lasindi> I'm going to disable one of the cards in my BIOS
[06:09] <crimsun> Shrimpy1: I did.
[06:10] <Shrimpy1> crimsun: ok what do i remove exactly?
[06:10] <omeil_> Kelsin: don't you just run that 30mb file u download install the files. then copy over PAK0.PK3?
[06:10] <crimsun> Shrimpy1: don't remove, just comment out the line(s)  [put a '#' at the beginning of the line(s)] 
[06:10] <chorse> lasindi: ah, that's great - so everything works fine now? if you have an onboard chip and aren't using it, you ought to disable it in your bios, that saves some little system resources
[06:10] <Shrimpy1> crimsun: on which lines?
[06:10] <robbie_crash> what's the site that I post snippets of text from to avoid flooding the channel?
[06:11] <crimsun> Shrimpy1: I just told you
[06:11] <nowhere> What can i do when gamesounds are out of sync? Ubuntu 6.0.6 and the game is tremulous.

[06:19] <holly2hottie>  hey, I have a question... while running gnome on edgy w/ all the aviliable updates my Xserver seems to be closing completly and restarts for no reason at all, is there anyone that can help me?
[06:19] <kaushal> ok
[06:19] <FunnyLookinHat> omeil_, my best suggestion is to search ubuntuforums.org    sorry man, not too many people on that would have installed q3 before
[06:19] <okih-imus> My friend installed Ubuntu, but he gets a grub bootloader error 21.
[06:19] <kalorin> okih: does he have a software raid (ie in the bios)?
[06:19] <kalorin> I had that problem
[06:20] <omeil_> FunnyLookinHAt: ima lookin
[06:20] <johnc> kaushal example: sudo cp /home/kaushal/file_name /var/what/ever
[06:20] <okih-imus> Yes, he has raid.
[06:20] <kalorin> can't have mirror or something going on
[06:20] <kalorin> have to break that and it'll boot then
[06:20] <DemisM> are there any good online tuts or docs on customizing ubuntu, or gnome in general? Also when I changed the panel I got errors with network-manager-gnome or nm-applet any ideas how I can get around this?
[06:20] <kalorin> pain in the a$$
[06:20] <kaushal> its still not working
[06:20] <Shrimpy1> crimsun: and i do that to ALL of the modes and save?
[06:20] <kalorin> welp, I'm off to format and install XP
[06:20] <okih-imus> Thanks
[06:20] <Shrimpy1> kalorin: why?
[06:20] <kalorin> too many tools that just aren't here yet
[06:20] <crimsun> Shrimpy1: just the lines that have "Modes"
[06:21] <kaushal> johnc : it still doesnot work
[06:21] <kalorin> I rely on stuff that's windows only and WINE wouldn't run it, and vmware just wouldn't work
[06:21] <johnc> kaushal, hmm not sure, this always works for me
[06:21] <kalorin> believe me, I wish it was otherwise
[06:21] <Supaplex> kalorin: like what?
[06:21] <okih-imus> Yeah, I can't give up the ease of use and my games that windows handles so well atm.
[06:21] <Mach4> can anyone help me with a busted windows install?  I installed linux with my windows drives (raid 0) plugged in, and because of GRUB error 21, cant boot into windows.
[06:21] <Shrimpy1> alright i did that to all the line's with mode. hopefully crimsun it won't mess up lol
[06:21] <kalorin> photoshop mainly
[06:21] <kalorin> adobe digital negative format specifically
[06:21] <Supaplex> yea, gimp as stagnated imo
[06:21] <kalorin> gimp is nice, but photoshop is >>
[06:21] <Supaplex> *nod*
[06:22] <kalorin> it's really harder to change OS's than I thought it'd be
[06:22] <kalorin> I've been working literally for like over a year to get off using anything in windows that isn't an opensoruce thing
[06:22] <eck> Mach4: what is grub error 21?
[06:22] <holly2hottie> you can run photoshop in wine or crossover office, no real reason to switch back to Winblowz XPee
[06:22] <Shrimpy1> crimsun: mmm i went to prefs> resolution and nothing samed
[06:22] <johnc> kaushal, right click on original file and check the permissions tab to make sure it is read and write
[06:22] <kalorin> but there's just a few things I can't get out of
[06:22] <kalorin> holly, elements 4 on the wine page says it doesn't work
[06:22] <Mach4> eck: you guys are supposed to tell me! :S
[06:23] <kaushal> ok
[06:23] <kalorin> and I need primier as well
[06:23] <Mach4> i dont know, i just know i cant boot into windows because of problems with this "grub" business
[06:23] <Mach4> or whatever the bootloader is called
[06:23] <Shrimpy1> kalorin: there are people who make programs just like those
[06:23] <holly2hottie> ahh well I never used elements 4, I have only used 6, 7 and cs2
[06:23] <kalorin> <--- I've spent the better part of 3 days now trying ot get vmware to install
[06:23] <eck> Mach4: pastebin your grub.conf
[06:23] <crimsun> Shrimpy1: what's the output from ``COLUMNS=200 dpkg -l xserver-xorg-video-i810\*|grep ^ii''
[06:23] <kalorin> and it's running but the vmware-server-console just "runs" and exits
[06:23] <kalorin> no messages
[06:24] <Supaplex> kalorin: there's #vmware for that (I forget which network)
[06:24] <kalorin> shrimpy, and I think that's all great, but I can't afford the drop in productivity spending time trying to find/learn/work around them
[06:24] <Shrimpy1> crimsun: ii  xserver-xorg-video-i810                      1.6.5-0ubuntu3                               X.Org X server -- Intel i8xx, i9xx display driver
[06:24] <kalorin> yeah
[06:24] <eck> if you pastebin it i will see if i can help you
[06:24] <lordkeiden> kalorin: have you looked into qemu for your virtual machine?
[06:24] <kalorin> no
[06:25] <Supaplex> vmware-server is $0 these days. qemu is FOSS
[06:25] <kalorin> part of this was that we're going to be doing vmware at work on a lot of stuff and I figured i'd learn a little about it
[06:25] <kalorin> FOSS?
[06:25] <Supaplex> free open source software
[06:25] <holly2hottie>  hey, I have a question... while running gnome on edgy w/ all the aviliable updates my Xserver seems to be closing completly and restarts for no reason at all, is there anyone that can help me? Also does anyone know if I would be better off asking for help for this particular issue in a Xorg channel, and is there a channel like that? thanks
[06:25] <Supaplex> free to use, copy, toture, and improve
[06:26] <eck> holly2hottie: check your xorg log
[06:26] <Shrimpy1> kalorin: well i think the support of linux espically ubuntu is amazing and just becasue of that i will use it (plus i hat mac's and window's always gets slow and stupid)
[06:26] <eck> that is the best place to start looking
[06:26] <ashzilla> hi all
[06:26] <lordkeiden> kalorin: if vmware is such a pita, maybe you should spend a few hours with qemu...it is slick
[06:26] <bulmer> anyone using an intel i815 chip for video have Xgl working with those 3-D ? beryl?
[06:26] <eck> i think it is /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[06:26] <ashzilla> is there anyone I can get a list of the images at http://www.sinaimonastery.com/photos/big
[06:26] <ashzilla> anyway*
[06:26] <MrWGW> hmm I don't suppose anyone else knows of the location of that .deb?
[06:26] <kalorin> man, the new macs are what unix should be though
[06:26] <MrWGW> for some reasons the .debs on the Ubuntu website (for Edgy) don't seem to be working
[06:26] <ashzilla> The webpage I'm trying to browse is in another language
[06:26] <kalorin> frigging amazing
[06:26] <MrWGW> (for Blubuntu)
[06:26] <okih-imus> Why would someone choose linux over windows for a personal computer?
[06:26] <kalorin> just $$$
[06:27] <eck> os x is a bastardization of unix
[06:27] <ashzilla> and I cannot browse the site, so I'm trying to view the images alone
[06:27] <eck> okih-imus: because linux offers a lot that windows cannot
[06:27] <kalorin> plug in a monitor, no muss, no fuss, just poof another screen pops up and your desktop expands.
[06:27] <tplinker> i seem to be having a problem running the ubuntu live cd, the cd was proplerly made, i set bios to boot from cd it loads up to the first screen, i run the install option, my computer and cd drive respond.....and after a minute or so it freezes....any ideas?
[06:27] <ashzilla> when I try to navigate to http://www.sinaimonastery.com/photos/big, it returns me to the main page
[06:27] <Shrimpy1> yeah mac's steal shit from linux and then change a name or two and then sell it
[06:27] <okih-imus> eck: Like what?
[06:27] <eck> e.g. i am a math major, it would be a major PITA for me to use windows
[06:27] <kalorin> and with parallels it's just amazing, it can run just about anything as I've been able to tell
[06:27] <Shrimpy1> safari!
[06:27] <eck> all of the major software for math is linux-centric
[06:27] <eck> especially LaTeX and certain math packages
[06:27] <wompus-cat> i can't get the nvidia drivers to work properly....after i install them, i restart x using ctrl+alt+bkspace, it comes up with the logo and freezes....then i restart my compy and it boots into the login screen but i can hear the login screen's sound looped over constantly and when i log in it hangs after the login screen dissapears
[06:27] <kalorin> shrimpy, I just want the functionality
[06:28] <bulmer> tplinker choose the lowest resolution like vga perhaps
[06:28] <kalorin> I dont' care where it comes from
[06:28] <nowhere> Any idea's on how to fix sound sync issues with games? Using tremulous on ubuntu..
[06:28] <tplinker> in bios?
[06:28] <Shrimpy1> kalorin: i understand
[06:28] <johnc> kaushal, you there, did that work
[06:28] <Supaplex> okih-imus: flexibility, power, extendable, secure, upgrades cleanly
[06:28] <pINgpONgbOSs> yo guys :]  quick question
[06:28] <bulmer> tplinker no, during install at the boot prompt...F3 i believe
[06:28] <kaushal> yes
[06:28] <pINgpONgbOSs> how can you check how much RAM your comp has?
[06:28] <tplinker> ok
[06:28] <Supaplex> pINgpONgbOSs: free
[06:28] <Shrimpy1> crimsun: are you still there?
[06:28] <okih-imus> Windows seems to be smooth to me, I've had no problems.
[06:28] <tplinker> thanks i'll give it a try
[06:28] <eck> linux also offers a lot of scriptability and extensibility that is not possible in windows
[06:28] <eck> i guess it depends
[06:28] <wompus-cat> please someone for the love of god answer me....i can't get help or any response anywhere
[06:29] <pINgpONgbOSs> ahh thx Supaplex
[06:29] <Shrimpy1> over time window's quits on you
[06:29] <okih-imus> Hmmm...I don't know what that scriptability means.
[06:29] <bulmer> eck windows can do some scripting
[06:29] <slackmf> !codecs
[06:29] <eck> not very much, not very easily

[06:29] <johnc> to check ram, type top into a termina;
[06:29] <kalorin> Shrimpy, I totally agree
[06:29] <h1st0> johnc: or install a system monitor.
[06:29] <okih-imus> Windows quits on you over time? What do you mean?
[06:29] <eck> whenever i have to use windows (e.g. at work) i always have to install cygwin
[06:29] <kalorin> I've just gotten to where I view it all simply as tools, and some are just better at some things than others
[06:29] <Supaplex> wompus-cat: how did you install the nvida drivers? you didn't wait but 60 seconds to throw a fit?
[06:29] <eck> because I work in a very linux-oriented way
[06:29] <pINgpONgbOSs> dam, it's giving me less ram than i think i have... i think >.>
[06:29] <kalorin> vmware lets you pick the best tool for the job and use it
[06:30] <h1st0> !off-topic
[06:30] <kalorin> that's all I really want
[06:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about off-topic - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:30] <corevette> What advantage is there having a low latency kernel?
[06:30] <h1st0> !offtopic
[06:30] <Shrimpy1> okih-imus: no matter what you do windows will become slow and retarad and start to freeze up (crash)
[06:30] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:30] <kalorin> ok qemu is installed
[06:30] <kalorin> now
[06:30] <h1st0> kalorin: you trying to get windows working through qemu?
[06:30] <Shrimpy1> don't get me wrong i love windows (its very gui friendly)
[06:30] <eck> windows has no cli to speak of, dammit
[06:30] <wompus-cat> i installed it thru the apt-get line from the edgy help....and no...i was in here earlier and noone answered
[06:30] <Mach4> eck: 1) where can i find grub.cfg?  i looked in the boot folder and see lots of grub-related files, but not that one      2) could you elaborate on "pastebin"?
[06:30] <kalorin> hist0 well photoshop and a few other things
[06:30] <okih-imus> Shrimpy1: Why would that happen?
[06:30] <eck> !pastebin
[06:30] <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)
[06:30] <Flannel> Mach4: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[06:30] <kalorin> I've be happier with vmware I think
[06:30] <eck> Mach4: pastebin the file /boot/grub/grub.conf
[06:30] <h1st0> kalorin: did you install the kqemu module?
[06:30] <Supaplex> pINgpONgbOSs: do you have shared video memory? how much ram are you expecting? systems with 3.2+ gb might not see the remainer in 32bit mode due to pci mmio mapping
[06:31] <kalorin> no
[06:31] <eck> or alternately /boot/grub/menu.lst
[06:31] <Flannel> eck, Mach4, ubuntu doesn't use grub.conf, it uses menu.lst
[06:31] <h1st0> kalorin: you may want that as well.  will speed things up.
[06:31] <alpha255> i'm trying to upgrade to dapper and changed the breezy to dapper in the sources file

[06:31] <eck> Flannel: damn, you are right
[06:31] <zero88> Does anyone know how to set your wireless card to Monitor Mode?
[06:31] <pINgpONgbOSs> i think i do have shared mem. i'm supposed to have 1 gig, and free is giving me 507k
[06:31] <drfoz> could someone help me with sound in feisty? i got it workin in ardourvst but it dont seem to wanna work on any other apps
[06:31] <Supaplex> zero88: iwconfig
[06:31] <eck> there should at least be a symlink :-)
[06:31] <Flannel> drfoz: feisty support in #ubuntu+1
[06:31] <h1st0> kalorin: the howto on the wiki is lacking a few things for kqemu
[06:32] <corevette> !Iceweasel
[06:32] <ubotu> Iceweasel's homepage is http://www.gnu.org/software/gnuzilla/ with more detailed information at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iceweasel
[06:32] <zero88> supaplex how does that set it to monitor mode
[06:32] <h1st0> !kqemu
[06:32] <ubotu> kqemu is a kernel module (now free under the GPL license) for speeding up the !QEMU virtual machine. Installation instructions can be found at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/KQEmu - see also !qvm86
[06:32] <Supaplex> pINgpONgbOSs: aside from disk caching...
[06:32] <Shrimpy1> okih-imus: Window's is awesome when you first start it but then like 6 months later it becomes like me when i just wake up. slow and unreponsive
[06:32] <Flannel> alpha255: right.  So, you've done that.  What's your problem?
[06:32] <corevette> !Ubotu
[06:32] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[06:32] <okih-imus> Shrimpy1: Well depending on your web browsing habits and browsers, spyware and adaware aren't much of an issue now. Also, there are plenty of tools to run to clean those problems.
[06:32] <kalorin> I don't see it in the synaptic search
[06:32] <h1st0> kalorin: what version of ubuntu are you running?
[06:32] <alpha255> Flannel, I don't know how to import the key?
[06:32] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supalex, disk caching..? oO
[06:32] <Supaplex> zero88: how? it uses the kernel wireless extensions api. read the man pages to figure out how you ask it to, provided your hardware supports that mode. also note, there are caveats with bridging.
[06:32] <corevette> !SuSe
[06:32] <ubotu> Other !Linux distributions besides !Ubuntu include: Debian, Mepis (using !APT); RedHat, Fedora, SUSE, Mandriva (using !RPM); Gentoo, Slackware (using other packaging systems)
[06:32] <Flannel> alpha255: which key?  The key is the same if the URL is the same
[06:32] <alpha255> Flannel, dpkg --import something right?
[06:33] <Flannel> alpha255: right.
[06:33] <Shrimpy1> yeah i clean like crazy and everything its just window's get's slow after a while. and many people can back me up on that.
[06:33] <corevette> !Google
[06:33] <ubotu> Google is a very popular search engine: http://www.google.com  -  Google also has a Linux-specific search engine: http://google.com/linux
[06:33] <zero88> supaplex where would i find the man pages?
[06:33] <Shrimpy1> !Pirates
[06:33] <eck> man man
[06:33] <Flannel> alpha255: there's instructions n the top of the source-o-matic, which will also give you keys
[06:33] <wompus-cat> i've installed the drivers using the binary from nvidia, from the syntapic manager, and from using apt-get....they all do the same thing
[06:33] <alpha255> ahh, key is in apt repository right?
[06:33] <kalorin> yeah I think ultimately really the real problem is finding the right tools for you and then finding an OS that will run them well
[06:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pirates - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:33] <Flannel> !easysource | alpha255
[06:33] <ubotu> alpha255: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[06:33] <kalorin> windows doesn't run them well but has all the apps
[06:33] <Mach4> eck or anyone else willing to help with broken windows: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7609/
[06:33] <alpha255> Flannel, nice
[06:33] <kalorin> so you're kind of stuck like that
[06:33] <Supaplex> zero88: open a terminal, and run man iwconfig, or in konqueror type man://iwconfig (I think)
[06:33] <Shrimpy1> window's is app crazy and i love that
[06:34] <h1st0> kalorin: well there is gimpshop etc.. if you want a more photoshop feel to gimp it even supports like 99% of the photosop plugins.

[06:34] <h1st0> !offtopic | drfoz
[06:34] <ubotu> drfoz: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:34] <Flannel> drfoz: #ubuntu+1 for feisty support, not here.
[06:34] <kalorin> yeah but we run informatica at work and those are windows only tools
[06:34] <EdibleEgg> lookingforhelp: have a BCM4306 wireless card, using ndiswrapper, but iwconfig doesn't even have wlan0 on it, any ideas?
[06:34] <eck> Mach4: you didn't include an entry for windows?
[06:34] <kalorin> then there's the mssql server stuff that we do
[06:34] <bulmer> anyone using an intel i815 chip for video got the Xgl working with those 3-D ? beryl?
[06:34] <h1st0> EdibleEgg: ifconfig?
[06:34] <corevette> drfox: feisty support = #ubuntu+1
[06:34] <kalorin> ultimatley I thought I'd be able to get around it
[06:35] <alpha255> feisty isn't out yet right?
[06:35] <EdibleEgg> h1st0, think it was iw
[06:35] <Flannel> bulmer: #ubuntu-effects for beryl/xgl support
[06:35] <h1st0> EdibleEgg: I know try ifconfig
[06:35] <Flannel> alpha255: it's alpha software still
[06:35] <Shrimpy1> feisty has a beta
[06:35] <h1st0> EdibleEgg: see if its listed there.
[06:35] <okih-imus> Exactly what kind of person is Linux directed to? I can't seem to be productive in it at all. I find windows software to be more responsive. I don't use any obscure specialized tools either. \
[06:35] <EdibleEgg> h1st0, ok, and if it is?
[06:35] <Mach4> eck: i dont know, i just clicked the install shortcut from the livecd.. it didnt ask me to edit any boot file
[06:35] <crimsun> Shrimpy1: yes?
[06:35] <EdibleEgg> h1st0, how would i enable it, it doesnt show up in network manager
[06:35] <eck> okih-imus: it is aimed at unix users
[06:35] <davejustdav1> can i repartition my hardrive to use full space without reinstalling ubuntu? currently i am usuing half of hardrive
[06:35] <Shrimpy1> linux is for everyone!
[06:35] <mneptok> okih-imus: how many years have you been using Windows?
[06:35] <eck> if you have always used windows, of course you will be unproductive in linux
[06:35] <h1st0> EdibleEgg: well ndiswrapper and network-manager working together is beyond me perhaps someone else would know.
[06:35] <eck> that is dumb
[06:36] <okih-imus> mneptok: Uhh since windows 3.1
[06:36] <h1st0> STOP THE WINDOWS DEBATE PLEASE

[06:36] <drfoz> corevette> thanks
[06:36] <EdibleEgg> h1st0, well i'll check ifconfig real quick bbias
[06:36] <eck> Mach4: well you need to edit that file to include an entry for booting windows
[06:36] <mneptok> okih-imus: think that has something to do with it? ;)
[06:36] <Shrimpy1> crimsun: you asked for the display drive with colums 200 or somthing and i sent it to you ii  xserver-xorg-video-i810                      1.6.5-0ubuntu3                               X.Org X server -- Intel i8xx, i9xx display driver
[06:36] <Mach4> okih-imus: please stop instigating to that eck can help me!
[06:36] <Mach4> i know okih btw
[06:36] <Flannel> okih-imus: #ubuntu-offtopic, is where that question is a good topic
[06:36] <eck> Mach4: there is an example on lines 39-42
[06:36] <crimsun> Shrimpy1: that's the only line?
[06:36] <okih-imus> mneptok: probably. i just feel left out of this linux inner circle. it feels like there's something i'm not getting that everyone else is.
[06:37] <bjv> davejustdav1: yes, gparted can probably do it, you will need a livecd with the tool though
[06:37] <eck> Mach4: the important thing to get correct is the correct drive and partition
[06:37] <eck> okih-imus: what do you use your computer for?
[06:37] <davejustdav1> tnx bjv
[06:37] <Shrimpy1> well there is two crimsun but it's two short ones

[06:37] <eck> what programming langauge?
[06:37] <okih-imus> java, c, matlab
[06:38] <Shrimpy1> matlab
[06:38] <eck> well C is pretty much a no brainer for linux
[06:38] <eck> java and matlab aren't really any better

[06:38] <siavashg> Can anyone help me get my USB mouse to work on my laptop?

[06:38] <siavashg> No usb seems to work for my laptop since I installed ubuntu
[06:38] <crimsun> Shrimpy1: no wonder, you didn't heed my suggestion
[06:38] <Shrimpy1> crimsun: thats what you wanted?
[06:38] <davejustdav1> another question... i am trying to install diablo2 on ubuntu i have installed "wine" and it recognizes the cd and steup programm but when i choose to isntall it locks up any suggestions?
[06:38] <eck> so then why argue about it?
[06:39] <crimsun> Shrimpy1: you need to install xserver-xorg-video-i810-modesetting
[06:39] <crimsun> Shrimpy1: I said as much over 30 hours ago
[06:39] <wompus-cat> so can anyone help me?
[06:39] <Flannel> davejustdav1: You might have more luck in #winehq (filled with people who use wine all the time)
[06:39] <kalorin> ok
[06:39] <davejustdav1> flannel tnx
[06:39] <Shrimpy1> crimsun: thats the xorg file thing (blue screen stuff) because i've done that twice
[06:39] <kalorin> shit this qemu seems to be working kind of nice
[06:39] <kalorin> most impressive

[06:40] <kalorin> Could not open '/dev/kqemu' - QEMU acceleration layer not activated
[06:40] <Flannel> wompus-cat: "It's broken" doesn't really tell us much.  Do you have any error messages?  Those are sometimes helpful.
[06:40] <crimsun> Shrimpy1: the output you _just_ pasted confirms that you haven't installed the correct package.
[06:40] <kalorin> what's the name of that package ?
[06:40] <wompus-cat> no error messages :/
[06:40] <h1st0> kalorin: yeah you don't have the module installed.  you have to build it yourself.
[06:40] <crimsun> Shrimpy1: sudo aptitude install xserver-xorg-video-i810-modesetting
[06:40] <Flannel> wompus-cat: check in /var/log
[06:40] <h1st0> kalorin: but not sure about doing it on whatever version of ubuntu you are running perhaps search the forums.
[06:40] <Shrimpy1> crimsun: thanks
[06:40] <wompus-cat> well.....i just reinstalled so i'll have to do again and everything

[06:42] <Flannel> wompus-cat: no, don't use that one.
[06:42] <Mach4> eck: sorry, but that example is rather cryptic to me.  could you elaborate on what i might need to put in menu.lst to make the boot menu work?  as of now, if my windows disks AND linux disk are both plugged in, my pc posts, and then just sits there and doesnt do anything, no messages.   If the linux drive is unpluged and just the windows disks are plugged in, i get an "error 21" saying that grub messed up in stage 1.5
[06:42] <wompus-cat> okie

[06:43] <Mach4> eck: i wanted to do that, but how do i reinstall just grub?
[06:43] <Shrimpy1> crimsun: sorry but you're going to have to tell me how to open it
[06:43] <Flannel> !grub | Mach4, first link
[06:43] <ubotu> Mach4, first link: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[06:43] <pINgpONgbOSs> Dr_willis, really? i've tried it, and it's pretty slow
[06:43] <crimsun> Shrimpy1: use the Text Editor
[06:43] <pINgpONgbOSs> Dr_willis, is qemu about hte same? :(
[06:44] <eck> Mach4: you need to boot into the linux environment, e.g. by doing the rescue option on the boot cd, and then follow the instructions to run grub-install
[06:44] <johnc> hist0, are you a moderator?
[06:44] <Flannel> Mach4: that page gives you all sorts of options, dependnig on which CD you have.
[06:44] <eck> then what should happen when you boot your computer is that grub should boot up and display the boot options in the menu.lst file, and selecting one of them will allow you to boot with those parameters
[06:44] <Dr_willis> pINgpONgbOSs,  qemu isent as full featured in many ways.. but it depends on exactly what you want to do and run with it...
[06:44] <bjv> moving to 2.6.17-11 knocked out my nvidia-glx package,
[06:44] <bjv> im sure it is because i stripped out some restricted modules or something i was not using. someone with the big-picture know what i should purge and reinstall?
[06:44] <Shrimpy1> crimsun (do you want the entire thing on here) (don't want people mad at me)
[06:44] <stooges> is it really possible for linux to use mac programs that are .dmg?
[06:44] <Mach4> thanks, just to clarify, installing linux broke my windows boot, not the other way around
[06:45] <eck> when you add the windows option to menu.lst, that will allow grub to load up the windows bootloader, which then completes the windows process normally
[06:45] <pINgpONgbOSs> Dr_willis, did you notice any speed differences?
[06:45] <bjv> ive just pulled and reinstalled nvidia-glx and tried pulling off and reinstalling all of restricted modules, im missing something still
[06:45] <eck> Mach4: yeah, so what happened is you used to have the windows bootloader on your master boot record (MBR)
[06:45] <robbie_crash> How can I fix these errors: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7608/
[06:45] <eck> and somehow grub was put on it incorrectly which results in you not being able to boot

[06:46] <Shrimpy1> #
[06:46] <eck> so you need to put grub on the MBR again (correctly), and then the windows option in grub will allow it to chainload the windows bootloader so that can start up windows
[06:46] <Shrimpy1> # Edit this file with caution, and see the /etc/X11/xorg.conf manual page.

[06:50] <Shaba2> cheaply
[06:50] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, yea, u mentioned somehting about shared system memory before
[06:50] <Pwnzorz> linux mint!
[06:50] <Supaplex> Shaba2: localhost is cheap. :)
[06:50] <h1st0> Shaba2: you could just do it on your box.
[06:50] <Darkkish> quick, how do i mount a drive in livecd?
[06:50] <h1st0> Shaba2: its free
[06:50] <Shaba2> damn I asked this in the wrong wroom
[06:50] <alpha255> Pichu0102, how much memory in the machine
[06:50] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, my video card is an intel integrated media crud
[06:50] <alpha255> ?
[06:50] <Shaba2> Was supposed to be in #windows
[06:50] <pINgpONgbOSs> Suaplex, maybe that's why?
[06:50] <stooges> i was wondering if a mac's program which uses a .dmg, can be run on linux.. i installed a file that has extension of .dmg
[06:50] <Shaba2> my unbutu queston was about partitioning an ntfs drive
[06:50] <Supaplex> Shaba2: vmware-server runs on linux and windows...
[06:51] <alpha255> pINgpONgbOSs, integrated 950 on laptops is a pretty good chip
[06:51] <robbie_crash> I've got a busted synaptec dealie, problem is outlined here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7608/
[06:51] <stooges> downloaded*, not installed yet
[06:51] <alpha255> does 3d stuff well
[06:51] <Supaplex> pINgpONgbOSs: how much ram did you dedicate to video?
[06:51] <Shaba2> I need one to run a small program on the net
[06:51] <pINgpONgbOSs> alpha255, yea, it's not bad lol
[06:51] <Pwnzorz> hi
[06:51] <Darkkish> in general
[06:51] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, dedicated? i didnt set anything like that i think
[06:51] <Darkkish> how do i mount something?
[06:51] <Supaplex> pINgpONgbOSs: dedicate* sorry. :P
[06:51] <okih-imus> How do I get rid of the grub bootloader if i want to remove Ubuntu from my system if i was dual booting XP and ubuntu? the bootloader isn't in the boot sector or mbr.
[06:52] <alpha255> darkch1ld,  mount /dev/something /mnt/mountplace
[06:52] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, no, i mean, is there a setting i can change?
[06:52] <Dr_willis> okih-imus,  where is it then?
[06:52] <holly2hottie>  hey, I have a question... while running gnome on edgy w/ all the aviliable updates my Xserver seems to be closing completly and restarts for no reason at all there are no error messages or anything telling me whats going on either, is there anyone that can help me?
[06:52] <GenNMX> Darkkish: Buy it dinner first, or if you have exceptionally low standards, go to your local pet store.
[06:52] <okih-imus> I have no idea Dr_willis
[06:52] <MatrixMon> Is there a way I can update automatix2?
[06:52] <Supaplex> pINgpONgbOSs: that would be in the bios
[06:52] <h1st0> stooges: what is .dmb?
[06:52] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, oh... then i have no clue :x
[06:52] <h1st0> stooges: err .dmg
[06:52] <stooges> .dmg
[06:52] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, think that might be the problem?
[06:52] <stooges> a mac file
[06:53] <Dr_willis> okih-imus,  how do you know its not on the  MBR then?
[06:53] <Supaplex> pINgpONgbOSs: you'd have to reboot. or, maybe X can tell you. check the X log, and maybe dmesg or syslog for startup details.
[06:53] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, i tried to google the problem, but i dont know what to search for
[06:53] <h1st0> stooges: yeah what is it a disk image?
[06:53] <okih-imus> because i had fixmbr run from the windows recovery console
[06:53] <bjv> ok. trouble with 'nvidia-glx' package, I went to reinstall 'nvidia-glx' and it said it needs 'linux-image-2.6.17-10-386' & 'restricted-modules-2.6.17-10-386'
[06:53] <bjv> this is a problem, as i am running 2.6.17-11.        what else do i need to remove/refresh? ive already done apt-get update
[06:53] <stooges> yeah... i guess yes
[06:53] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, i'll try dmesg and syslog
[06:53] <bjv> im missing something.
[06:53] <butterkitty> k Flannel
[06:53] <kalorin> mkay then
[06:53] <Dr_willis> okih-imus,  normally one would use fdisk, or some othe rpartioning tool to delete the linux partitions,  then run fixmbr,  you are saying you ran fixmbr and grub is STILL there?
[06:53] <nnliu> does anyone know how to make windows that I click on take focus? right now when i open somehting they just pop up behind my current window
[06:53] <kalorin> 50G windows XP coming up
[06:53] <kalorin> with 512meg of ram
[06:53] <kalorin> nice
[06:53] <h1st0> stooges: did you try google i'm getting a lot of results for ubuntu dmg
[06:54] <wompus-cat> i did it....should have the logs now Flannel
[06:54] <bjv> nnliu: #gnome ?
[06:54] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, holy crud dmesg filled my whole terminal screen lol
[06:54] <stooges> well i did but apparently it ain't that easy finding something.. i'm still new
[06:54] <Supaplex> pINgpONgbOSs: yea, use less :) dmesg | less
[06:54] <Flannel> wompus-cat: you get the same error using the wiki's instructions?
[06:54] <coredata> Hello
[06:54] <wompus-cat> yep
[06:54] <stooges> ill look again
[06:54] <nnliu> k
[06:54] <wompus-cat> i get the same error doin it any way i can
[06:54] <wompus-cat> i downloaded the driver from nvidia still got it
[06:54] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, found this: [17179569.420000]  Memory: 501472k/515964k available (1911k kernel code, 13852k reserved, 1073k data, 308k init, 0k highmem)
[06:55] <Flannel> wompus-cat: the nv driver (default) works though, right?
[06:55] <kalorin> too funny
[06:55] <wompus-cat> i'm running 6.10.....when i was running 6.06 i could get it np
[06:55] <wompus-cat> yar...nv works fine
[06:55] <empty_mind> hey guys there is a guy in ##linux complaining about being banned from #ubuntu
[06:55] <wompus-cat> i'm usin that right now
[06:55] <stooges> mostly those dmg files are converting .dmg to .iso.. i'm talking about a 1mb file, not 700 mb
[06:55] <h1st0> stooges: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManageDiscImages#head-fc14558e9b3177677844d5851cd01ed8ee7dea4a
[06:55] <empty_mind> he wants to know how can he be unbanned from #ubuntu
[06:56] <Flannel> empty_mind: if he wants to talk about it, #ubuntu-ops is the place to go
[06:56] <empty_mind> ok thanks Flannel
[06:56] <holly2hottie>  hey, I have a question... while running gnome on edgy w/ all the aviliable updates my Xserver seems to be closing completly and restarts for no reason at all there are no error messages or anything telling me whats going on either, is there anyone that can help me?
[06:56] <lufis> holly2hottie: try asking on the forums :)
[06:56] <Supaplex> pINgpONgbOSs: I would google for things like missing ram / memory linux and your laptop + maybe the model to
[06:56] <kalorin> holly: is there a log?
[06:56] <Lunar_Lamp> empty_mind, he needs to speak to one of the ops. i think messaging #ubuntu.ops or #ubuntu-ops would work.
[06:56] <lufis> holly2hottie: ubuntuforums.org
[06:56] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, kk
[06:56] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, thx for helping :] 
[06:56] <Supaplex> pINgpONgbOSs: if your run memtest, does it report similar results?
[06:57] <empty_mind> Lunar_Lamp, i communicated the same to him
[06:57] <pINgpONgbOSs> from the grub menu?
[06:57] <pINgpONgbOSs> i havent tried that yet
[06:57] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, oops forgot to put ur username in front
[06:57] <bjv> so, anyone familiar with what packages i need to manipulate in Apt?
[06:57] <bjv> some version is wrong.
[06:57] <h1st0> holly2hottie: what about the logs?
[06:57] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, havent tried to run memtest yet. i know that windows XP is detecting 1 gig
[06:57] <coredata> confidential
[06:57] <Supaplex> pINgpONgbOSs: yea. provided something silly, like forced memory clipping isn't passed to the kernel. eg, mem=500mb
[06:58] <h1st0> holly2hottie: does it do it randomly also or are you doing something when it happens like hitting ctrl+alt+backspace
[06:58] <wompus-cat> i know there's nuttin wrong with the card cuz i use it in windows or ubuntu 6.06 no probs
[06:58] <kalorin> wompus-cat are you having issues with vmware?
[06:58] <wompus-cat> i'm not usin vmware
[06:58] <wompus-cat> i got dualboot
[06:58] <kalorin> ah ok
[06:58] <Supaplex> pINgpONgbOSs: cat /proc/cmdline ; echo (don't paste). do you see any mem= lines?
[06:58] <kalorin> heh
[06:58] <nf4> hello
[06:58] <kalorin> I like linux boxes to have nice uptimes that are in the years
[06:58] <cafuego_> kalorin: done
[06:59] <kalorin> have a trouble child at work (dell 32g of ram and stuff) that just locks sometimes
[06:59] <Supaplex> kalorin: and full of exploit possibilities, oh my! :)
[06:59] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, lemme try that
[06:59] <kalorin> rebooted it, said 768days since last fscked'
[06:59] <h1st0> lol
[06:59] <stooges> i dont think .dmg files would work in linuz.. its not an iso but probably programs are different
[06:59] <cafuego_> 16:59:11 up 525 days,  2:07,  1 user,  load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00
[06:59] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, wats the ";" for? oO
[06:59] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supapex, part of hte command?
[06:59] <Supaplex> pINgpONgbOSs: seperates command line calls.
[06:59] <kalorin> I have 1 box that was there and started about 4 weeks after I did 5 years ago
[07:00] <kalorin> still running redhat 7.2
[07:00] <kalorin> poor old thing
[07:00] <Supaplex> poor roothat box
[07:00] <wompus-cat> hehe
[07:00] <kalorin> damn business just will NOT let us migrate off that old crappy code
[07:00] <wompus-cat> i just wish i could get this to work
[07:00] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, nope, i dont see mem= lines
[07:00] <kalorin> what can you do?
[07:00] <cafuego_> kalorin: virtualise it
[07:00] <holly2hottie> h1st0: I am not hitting ctrl alt backspace. I am not sure which log files I would even need to look at to find out what to do about this either. But that useally is happening while I am in Firefox browsing the web in gnome. Right now I am in XFCE and I havent seemed to have had that issue yet. But its speratic, like sometimes w/in 3 min or starting GNOME sometimes like 1 - 2 hrs after starting GNOME
[07:01] <stooges> how easy is it to use GTK 2.0, what do i need to do to install that?
[07:01] <wompus-cat> i can't find anything in the Xorg logs that look to out of the ordinary, but then again i don't know too much about it in the first place
[07:01] <Supaplex> pINgpONgbOSs: strange. I think you can use mem= to force larger memory to, but maybe it's mapped funny. google around and see what you find. also, html output from cpuz (windows) somewhere might be resourceful to us.
[07:01] <mneptok> wompus-cat: nVidia+Edgy?
[07:01] <kalorin> ok so why is everyone so impressed with vmware with this qemu is so easy to set up?
[07:01] <bonii> I use Dapper on my laptop but when I hibernate my laptop then again I start it it doesnt start up the Xserver hangs what might be the problem please help out
[07:01] <kalorin> i don't get it?
[07:01] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, is the only way to run memtest through reboot?
[07:01] <wompus-cat> yar, i'm running edgy
[07:02] <bjv> wompus-cat: did you loose your nvidia drivers when you updated the kernel? or just trying to get them working?
[07:02] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, and i didnt get hte last part about cpuz lol
[07:02] <bjv> im trying to get them working again after an update
[07:02] <wompus-cat> trying to get them working
[07:02] <Supaplex> kalorin: try booting from cd the first time only while using snapshot mode. :(
[07:02] <h1st0> holly2hottie: hrm... well logs are in /var/log  like /var/log/Xorg.0.log etc...
[07:02] <mneptok> wompus-cat: sudo aptitude install linux-restricted-modules nvidia-glx
[07:02] <Supaplex> pINgpONgbOSs: cpuz is a windows program. it'll let you save a html report.
[07:02] <kalorin> eh?
[07:02] <Supaplex> pINgpONgbOSs: it describes the cpu, memory and other spiffy details.
[07:02] <wompus-cat> yeah, i did that b4
[07:03] <kalorin> supaplex? qemu doesn't like that I guess?
[07:03] <Supaplex> kalorin: qemu can't do that. yea :(
[07:03] <holly2hottie> h1st0: thanks, I will go and look at them now, I am not sure exactly what I am to be looking for so I will upload a copy to pastebin also and send the link to you
[07:03] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, ah i see
[07:03] <mneptok> wompus-cat: cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep nv
[07:03] <bonii> I use Dapper on my laptop but when I hibernate my laptop then again I start it it doesnt start up the Xserver hangs what might be the problem please help out
[07:03] <kalorin> well vmware is a nightmare of lib issues right now it seems for 6.10
[07:03] <kalorin> 6.06 might work I guesss
[07:03] <h1st0> holly2hottie: the end of the file probably want Xorg.0.log.old or whatever the last one was.
[07:03] <kalorin> not sure
[07:03] <wompus-cat> i'm usin the nv driver right now
[07:03] <warlock> what is the command to set a specefic size to a dir? so the dir can't be larger then 10mb for an example?
[07:03] <kalorin> every fix I tried got it a little closer and then I ran out of fixes
[07:03] <Dr_willis> kalorin,  it is?  it installed fine for me...
[07:03] <pINgpONgbOSs> supaplex, just making sure, but the swap has nothing to do with RAM right?
[07:04] <bonii> I use Dapper on my laptop but when I hibernate my laptop then again I start it it doesnt start up the Xserver hangs what might be the problem please help out
[07:04] <kalorin> the server?
[07:04] <kalorin> from the tar.gz?
[07:04] <Supaplex> pINgpONgbOSs: correct. free reports them seperate.
[07:04] <mneptok> wompus-cat: so what is it you're trying to do?
[07:04] <kalorin> I had a hell of a time
[07:04] <pINgpONgbOSs> supaplex, cause if i just add the [free]  and the swap... xD
[07:04] <Dr_willis> kalorin, yes.
[07:04] <Supaplex> hehe
[07:04] <kalorin> well
[07:04] <wompus-cat> install the nvidia 3d acceleration driver on ubuntu 6.10
[07:04] <Dr_willis> kalorin,  i do tend to install all sorts of extra things - but i got it running fine.
[07:04] <kalorin> vmware-server-console I run and it just hangs for a moment then exits with no messages
[07:05] <Supaplex> kalorin: did you try strace?
[07:05] <kalorin> first it was complaining about libpng12.so.1
[07:05] <wompus-cat> that's what i'm trying to do mneptok
[07:05] <Dr_willis> kalorin,  i just run the 'vmware' command.. H.,,,
[07:05] <pINgpONgbOSs> supaplex, found a couple of forums where ppl recommended running memtest
[07:05] <Dr_willis> the libpng is just a 'warning' not a real issue.
[07:05] <pINgpONgbOSs> supaplex, think imma do that
[07:05] <kalorin> oh the server processes are running
[07:05] <mneptok> wompus-cat: if you installed those 2 packages all you need to do is enable the driver in xorg.conf
[07:05] <Supaplex> vmware-install is pretty sharp about detecting missing libraries.  I installed a bare metal box, and it yelled for missing libs before I continued.
[07:05] <kalorin> I can't get the management console to run
[07:05] <pINgpONgbOSs> supaplex, just reboot and run from the grub menu right?
[07:05] <Supaplex> pINgpONgbOSs: yea, assuming you have memtest installed right.
[07:06] <wompus-cat> i get it installed but it hangs at the logo after restarting X....then when i reboot, the login screen sound loops and i try to log in and it hangs there
[07:06] <threeonefour_> i know there is a new project or something where you can install ubuntu on a windows partition and have the windows boot loader boot ubuntu   but what is the link for that
[07:06] <pINgpONgbOSs> supaplex, yup, i see it besides ubuntu and windows
[07:06] <Dr_willis> kalorin i dont even have vmware-server-console :) i may of not installed that part
[07:06] <wompus-cat> i can install the driver and have it work fine in 6.06
[07:06] <pINgpONgbOSs> supaplex, thanks for ur help man. it's my first time in here. actually, my first time actually talking in IRC
[07:06] <Supaplex> pINgpONgbOSs: run with it (pun intended) ;-)
[07:06] <Dr_willis> kalorin,  oh wait 'vmware' runs vnware-server-console.
[07:06] <wompus-cat> so, there's something weird
[07:06] <pINgpONgbOSs> supaplex :')
[07:06] <kalorin> well that hangs and then exits
[07:06] <kalorin> same deal
[07:06] <kalorin> I can strace it
[07:06] <rirudepanci> hi, when i run winecfg i get thi error message: "libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b" and the config window does not appear, can anyone help me?
[07:07] <kalorin> yeah I have the apache working and the vmware server stuff working
[07:07] <stooges> what do i have to do to be able to use GTK 2.0?  i want to install something but i want be sure I have the required packages..etc
[07:07] <kalorin> then it just hangs
[07:07] <Supaplex> stooges: as in dpkg -l gtk ?
[07:07] <kalorin> strace takes a while, loads a lot of stuff
[07:07] <wompus-cat> i update to 6.10 and it doesn't want to work....i install from the 6.10 cd and do nothing but go straight into installing the driver and it doesn't work
[07:07] <stooges> i guesss, i found some themes so i wondered.
[07:07] <bjv> question: has anyone who had a problem w/ nvidia-glx on upgrade to 2.6.17-11 got it working??
[07:07] <Supaplex> kalorin: -o is a must have :)
[07:07] <bjv> or should i just concentrate on rolling back to 2.6.17-10
[07:07] <kalorin> here, join #kal?
[07:08] <bjv> because something is broken in apt- and i cannot find it.
[07:08] <threeonefour_> i know there is a new project or something where you can install ubuntu on a windows partition and have the windows boot loader boot ubuntu   but what is the link for that
[07:08] <h1st0> threeonefour_: its in the forums
[07:08] <MatrixMon> Can anyone help me load Winxp on to Daper 6.0 with vmware player?

[07:09] <wompus-cat> but i can't get it working in another way
[07:09] <warlock> what is the command to set a specefic size to a dir? so the dir can't be larger then 10mb for an example?
[07:10] <bjv> you can get it working in -10?
[07:10] <wompus-cat> i can't

[07:13] <warlock> what is the command to set a specefic size to a dir? so the dir can't be larger then 10mb for an example?
[07:13] <Asl[a] n> Error reading block 9764865 (Invalid argument) while reading inode and block bitmaps.  Ignore error<y>? yes
[07:13] <Asl[a] n> can anyone help me to fix this? i sure don't want to lose all the data on the disk- and right now, i cannot make backup either
[07:13] <h1st0> warlock: quota?
[07:13] <_3uG_> i have the joystick package installed. i've mknoded and modprobed everything that's required.
[07:14] <h1st0> warlock: qouta  I can't spell yay
[07:14] <holly2hottie> h1st0: http://pastebin.com/889079
[07:14] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, lol oen last questoin
[07:14] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, if i decide to use the mem= option, what should the parameter be?
[07:14] <warlock> yeah, quota - but I dunno how to use it?
[07:14] <_3uG_> and lsmod returns everything that it should.. so i'm stumped.
[07:14] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, i just know that it's not a whole 1000M
[07:15] <kalorin> stat64("/etc/vmware/not_configured", 0xbfee436c) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
[07:15] <_3uG_> cat /dev/input/js0 keeps saying "no such device"
[07:15] <Dr_willis> kalorin,  you did run that vmware configuration script?
[07:15] <kalorin> yeah
[07:15] <kalorin> all 3 of them
[07:15] <snowpunk98> Can I ask a dumb question
[07:16] <Dr_willis>  vmware-config.pl   is all ive ever ghad to run
[07:16] <nnliu> does anyone know how to make windows that I click on take focus? right now when i open somehting they just pop up behind my current window
[07:16] <chamiltonj> hlst0: Tried that, all day it seems.  Seems like it a specific problem with my card
[07:16] <kalorin> keep in mind this is after I've installed it like 4 times
[07:16] <Asl[a] n> snowpunk98, only if its dumbed down enough for us dumb ones :P and yeah, you'll get don't ask to ask any moment now.
[07:16] <Asl[a] n> just ask away
[07:17] <tanlaan> why is there a "move to trash" function for usb drives under ubuntu? Is there any way to disable it? I find it annoying to have to go into a terminal and "rm -r" the .Trash folder
[07:17] <Supaplex> pINgpONgbOSs: try how ever much memtest or windows sees
[07:17] <h1st0> warlock: I know a lot of howto's on howtoforge talk about quota for an isp setup.
[07:17] <pINgpONgbOSs> Supaplex, i just know that windows shows .99 gigs when i to go My Computer's Properties. i'll try memtest then
[07:17] <snowpunk98> When I setup a Windows machine I always create a C partition for just the OS and usually programs and the remainder of the disk for dynamic/static data
[07:17] <warlock> h1st0, care to link?
[07:18] <snowpunk98> When I create partitions in linux what would be the equivalent
[07:18] <Soccer5555> gah violot has gone crazy
[07:18] <Soccer5555> creating a script to write .
[07:18] <Soccer5555> over and over again
[07:18] <h1st0> warlock: let me find one.
[07:18] <warlock> thanks
[07:18] <Supaplex> pINgpONgbOSs: how much video ram do you have? error on the side of caution of you don't know. eg, round down. your box will crash pretty quick if you over estimate :)
[07:18] <warlock> brb smoke meanwhile
[07:19] <tanlaan> snowpunk98: you would make a 10mb boot partition, a 200mb+ swap partition, then the rest of the drive would be your / *root* partition
[07:19] <pINgpONgbOSs> supaplex, video ram? i'm not sure what you mean
[07:19] <wompus-cat> i get it installed but it hangs at the logo after restarting X....then when i reboot, the login screen sound loops and i try to log in and it hangs there....i can install the driver and have it work fine in 6.06....i update to 6.10 and it doesn't want to work....i install from the 6.10 cd and do nothing but go straight into installing the driver and it doesn't work
[07:19] <kalorin> Dr_willis, ok it did come with this error in the config:
[07:19] <pINgpONgbOSs> supaplex, how can I check
[07:19] <snowpunk98> tanlaan, 10MB boot do you mean 10GB
[07:19] <h1st0> warlock: not sure which page its on but its in the tutorial http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu_6.06
[07:19] <tanlaan> snowpunk98: the root partition is like the C partition in windows
[07:19] <kalorin> Unable to install the .desktop menu entry file. You must add it to your menus
[07:19] <kalorin> by hand.
[07:19] <Dr_willis> kalorin,  thats trivial.. means it dident cfigure out how to make the vmware icon in the menus
[07:20] <kalorin> right
[07:20] <tanlaan> snowpunk98: nope, i mean 10 mb that is all you should need for the boot partition *its where grub goes to load up linux or any other OS on your computer*
[07:20] <kalorin> that's what i gathered
[07:20] <warlock> thanks h1st0
[07:20] <h1st0> warlock: np
[07:20] <kalorin> then it says that none of the prebuilt vmmon modules for vmware server is suitable
[07:20] <nnliu> does anyone know how to make windows that I click on take focus? right now when i open somehting they just pop up behind my current window
[07:20] <kalorin> and asks to build one
[07:20] <snowpunk98> tanlaan, oh what about swap, I currently have a 1GB swap
[07:20] <kalorin> which I said to go ahead
[07:20] <Soccer5555> everyone to noenemies
[07:20] <kalorin> and it goes through make and all that jazz fine
[07:21] <Dr_willis> nnliu,  try asking in gnome yet? It sounds more like ya got a bug then a 'setting'
[07:21] <kalorin> saying that module loads pefectly in the running kernel
[07:21] <nnliu> i asked in gnome
[07:21] <nnliu> no answer -.-
[07:21] <tanlaan> snowpunk98: I dont think you will be needing THAT much for swap, swap is just to put the things your RAM cant handle at the moment. How much RAM do you have?
[07:21] <snowpunk98> tanlaan, 1GB
[07:21] <Mad_Doctor> is there any irc / webforum channel dedicated to free software development? - i don't like mailing lists!
[07:21] <kalorin>    Starting httpd.vmware:-ne                                          failed
[07:21] <mackinac> snowpunk98:  https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/installation-guide/i386/preparing.html
[07:21] <kalorin> I do get that
[07:21] <Dr_willis> nnliu,  make a new user,, see if the issue affects them as well.
[07:21] <rkyraccoon55> anyone here know of a good guide for beryl?
[07:22] <nnliu> k
[07:22] <kalorin> not 100% sure hy
[07:22] <kalorin> why
[07:22] <nnliu> maybe it's beryl that's doing it
[07:22] <nnliu> i'll check
[07:22] <nnliu> thx
[07:22] <snowpunk98> I am already running ubuntu edgy dual booting with Windows but I kinda wanna do away with Windows and go full linux
[07:22] <tanlaan> snowpunk98: yea you really dont need that much, but its fine if you dont want to take the time to change it
[07:22] <mackinac> oops wrong link
[07:22] <tanlaan> snowpunk98: its not going to harm anything
[07:22] <wompus-cat> i'm having problems with installing the nvidia drivers....i get them installed but it hangs at the logo after restarting X....then when i reboot, the login screen sound loops and i try to log in and it hangs there....i can install the driver and have it work fine in 6.06....i update to 6.10 and it doesn't want to work....i install from the 6.10 cd and do nothing but go straight into installing the driver and it doesn't work
[07:23] <tanlaan> snowpunk98: I currently have what I told you and 1gb of RAM and im doing great
[07:23] <snowpunk98> tanlaan, if I want the ability in the future to just remove the OS but leave my data behind (example being in windows where I could reinstall windows on C and my data on D is fine)
[07:23] <kalorin>    Starting httpd.vmware:-ne                                          failed
[07:23] <kalorin> The configuration of VMware Server 1.0.0 build-28343 for Linux for this running
[07:23] <kalorin> kernel completed successfully.
[07:23] <kalorin> so that's happy
[07:23] <snowpunk98> tanlaan, How would I set that up 10MB boot, 1GB swap, root is data or the OS?
[07:24] <kalorin> Dr_willis, does yours then go into another management interface configurator? vmware-config-mui.pl
[07:24] <nowhere> I have some sound sync issues with a game, any idea's on a fix? Ubuntu 6.0.6 / nForce2 / Tremulous!
[07:24] <rkyraccoon55> anyone here know of a good guide for beryl?
[07:24] <rkyraccoon55> i just got it and dont know how to use it
[07:24] <tanlaan> snowpunk98: hmm root is usually everything, your OS and data. But I suppose you could seperate your drive into another partition so you have one for OS and one for your personal date
[07:24] <tanlaan> *data
[07:25] <kalorin> I did 100mb for /boot, then / and swap
[07:25] <tanlaan> snowpunk98: I just dont know how much you would want to save for the OS and the applications
[07:25] <Dr_willis> kalorin,  i dont have a vmware-config-mui.pl
[07:25] <kalorin> I just don't trust boot loaders
[07:25] <kalorin> interesting
[07:25] <kalorin> k
[07:25] <kalorin> maybe I nuke that and do a reinstall
[07:25] <Dr_willis> kalorin,  you may of installed somthing else i never installed.
[07:25] <kalorin> if you've got it running without that stuff
[07:26] <snowpunk98> tanlaan, My concern is that if I put my data on the same partition with my OS and my OS gets screwed up so bad I lose my data
[07:26] <Dr_willis> there were some extra vmware server 'things' i think - that i dident install.
[07:26] <tanlaan> snowpunk98: what kind of data are you talking about?
[07:26] <kalorin> that's interesting
[07:26] <snowpunk98> tanlaan, Pictures, music, documents, etc important things I dont want to lose
[07:26] <kalorin> cause I thought you needed all 3
[07:26] <kalorin> 3 packages
[07:27] <kalorin> mui and server and server-console
[07:27] <kalorin> so i installed them all
[07:27] <Dr_willis> I belive ive just installed the 'server' package..
[07:27] <nf4> any one use flickr?
[07:27] <mackinac> snowpunk98:  make "/home" separate from "/" (root)
[07:27] <Dr_willis> not even sure what the others do. :)
[07:27] <threeonefour_> h1st0, have you tried to use this install method
[07:28] <snowpunk98> mackinac, How big should I make root
[07:28] <tanlaan> snowpunk98: listen to him, im a noob :P haha
[07:28] <holly2hottie> h1st0: were you able to checkout my logfiles?
[07:28] <snowpunk98> lol
[07:29] <snowpunk98> Im really trying to decide if I should fully switch to Ubuntu
[07:29] <h1st0> holly2hottie: yeah nothing really there. hrm...
[07:29] <snowpunk98> Or if I should keep dual booting with Windows
[07:29] <kalorin> snowpunk98, I think ubuntu is the best dist going right now
[07:29] <h1st0> holly2hottie: perhaps try different video drivers maybe is the only thing I would try to see if it goes away.
[07:29] <kalorin> I've run debian for a while now on my server cause it's light and easy install but I'm going to switch next hardware upgrade
[07:30] <wompus-cat> i would totally switch if i could install my video card drivers
[07:30] <kalorin> and redhat at work, and it's just terrible anymore with package dependencies
[07:30] <h1st0> threeonefour_: nope
[07:30] <snowpunk98> kalorin, I would agree however I'm not sure if I will need windows for something down the line like games or MS only applications
[07:30] <wompus-cat> but since nobody seems to have a clue, i'm about to say, linux sucks and go back to windows
[07:30] <kalorin> snow, that's why i'm trying to set up vmware
[07:30] <kalorin> cause of the productivity stuff, now games, that's anyone's guess
[07:30] <alpha255> fedora 6 isn't bad
[07:30] <h1st0> snowpunk98: just dual boot and then you don't have to worry bout it.  Although I haven't been in windows in months.
[07:30] <snowpunk98> ah
[07:30] <kalorin> I don't play much and most of the games that I do occasionally play are linuxable
[07:31] <alpha255> i also run edgy and like it too
[07:31] <holly2hottie> h1st0: hmmm... well any ideas? could it be a GNOME issue, or do you think it is something w/ X? Right now as far as video drivers I am using the default ones for my laptop. nothing fancy like the nvidea or radien drivers
[07:31] <mackinac> snowpunk98:  my root is usually 4 to 6 GB
[07:31] <snowpunk98> I just dont like this fat32 partition sitting here being all old and ugly :(
[07:31] <mackinac> with room to spare
[07:31] <snowpunk98> mackinac, And that will be enough for the OS and all applications?
[07:31] <nowhere> I have some sound sync issues with a game, any idea's on a fix? Ubuntu 6.0.6 / nForce2 / Tremulous!
[07:31] <h1st0> holly2hottie: well you said you were running fluxbox also?
[07:32] <h1st0> holly2hottie: if that restarts then its an Xorg problem not a gnome problem.  Or it could be hardware.
[07:32] <mackinac> snowpunk98:  its been enough for me... i dont go grazy installing extra stuff
[07:32] <mackinac> s/crazy/grazy
[07:33] <zalpha254> can anyone help with a grub problem? i reinstalled windows and it overwrote grub, after restoring grub i get an "Error 17: cannot mount selected partition" when I try to boot ubuntu... any ideas?
[07:33] <holly2hottie> h1st0: not fluxbox xfce. and I havent had that problem yet on here, but my g/f is the one that has to use this and she kinda likes the feel and all of GNOME
[07:34] <h1st0> holly2hottie: well if xfce isn't resetting the X server then I would assume it may be a gnome problem only.
[07:34] <h1st0> holly2hottie: hrm....  The drivers shouldn't really matter but that may be worth a try.

[07:35] <jmazaredo> is xorg and xserver different?
[07:36] <zalpha254> i already restored grub by following that tutorial... inside grub it says "error 17 cannot mount partition" for ubuntu partition only
[07:36] <rkyraccoon55> i cant get beryl to do anything its supposed to do
[07:36] <kalorin> ok so just install the vmware server package and that's it then
[07:36] <kalorin> do the config and done

[07:37] <kalorin> wompus-cat, did you check nvidia's site for drivers there?
[07:37] <wompus-cat> i tried their drivers too...same issue
[07:38] <kalorin> hrms...
[07:38] <kalorin> what exactly are you seeing again?
[07:38] <holly2hottie> h1st0 and ubotu: Thank you both for all your help and sugestions. I am going to check out the 3D-drivers as mentioned. How do I go about finding out exactly what video chip/card I have? I dont really have much of any info on the hardware on this laptop
[07:38] <wompus-cat> i get them installed but it hangs at the logo after restarting X....then when i reboot, the login screen sound loops and i try to log in and it hangs there....i can install the driver and have it work fine in 6.06....i update to 6.10 and it doesn't want to work....i install from the 6.10 cd and do nothing but go straight into installing the driver and it doesn't work
[07:38] <kalorin> I'm not an expert by any means though, so bear with me
[07:38] <kalorin> sorry
[07:39] <kalorin> weird
[07:39] <wompus-cat> yeah...i think so too
[07:39] <kalorin> I have an ATI x700 pro and had all kinds of issues
[07:39] <kalorin> maybe something about the way it's clocked in the bios?
[07:39] <kalorin> or some toggle in there saying vga pallet snoop or something that might cause it to get goofy?
[07:40] <nnliu_> any1 familiar w/ beryl? i have asked in beryl channel but no1 really responding

[07:48] <Mach3> Hi, i am having boot troubles.  My pastebin is here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7619/   Please help
[07:48] <kalorin> heh
[07:48] <kalorin> my favorite part of any windows install.... Your computer will be faster and more reliable!
[07:48] <kalorin> <insert marketing text here>
[07:49] <kalorin> ok so vmware installed _AGAIN_
[07:49] <kalorin> back ot the same libpng12.so.1 error
[07:49] <zzaappp> I'm installing the desktop for the very first time, and its running painfully slowly.  I'm assuming swapon was never called, and its been like 45 mins since the install started, but its still only on partitioning.
[07:49] <zzaappp> any way to speed this up?
[07:50] <nnliu_> installation goes slow, has u'r computer froze?
[07:51] <zzaappp> no, not frozen... as I said, the cdrom still blinks, and the GUI side eventually updates the mouse as I drag it around.  but its really slow.
[07:51] <kalorin> and there you have it
[07:51] <nowhere> I have some sound sync issues with a game, any idea's on a fix? Ubuntu 6.0.6 / nForce2 / Tremulous!
[07:52] <zzaappp> i'm at the low end of available memory, 128 mb.
[07:52] <Mach3> I installed Ubuntu from the liveCD, and now i cant boot into Windows (or linux w/o a bit of trouble).  Can anyone help?
[07:53] <Flannel> zzaappp: Desktop CD needs 192mb RAM, you should use the alternate CD
[07:54] <zzaappp> what is different about alternate?  memory requirement?
[07:54] <Flannel> zzaappp: no liveCD.  Just an installer
[07:54] <Dictionary> question?!?! is there a way i can update to ubuntu x.10 without having to reinstall everything allover

[07:55] <Mach3> I installed Ubuntu from the liveCD, and now i cant boot into Windows (or linux w/o a bit of trouble).  Can anyone help?

[07:58] <Morg0> I have 6.10 installed and screen saver activated with lock. When I reenter my password, my programs have closed down ? Any ideas
[07:58] <Dictionary> Mach3: does it give you an error?
[07:58] <Mach3> Dictionary: see here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7620/
[07:58] <hueblur> anyone awake?
[07:59] <Flannel> hueblur: nope.  no one.
[08:00] <wompus-cat> what's the command to check rendering?
[08:00] <Dictionary> Mach3: what i ended up what that happend is reinstall both...when having windows and linux i when and bought a external hard drive and copyed all my info...
[08:00] <wompus-cat> to check if it's on in x i mean.... 3d rendering
[08:00] <Dictionary> Mach3:: or if u have windows cd
[08:00] <kalorin> OMG, it worked!
[08:00] <Dictionary> Mach3:: u can rix windows then only reinstall linux
[08:01] <wompus-cat> "direct rendering: Yes"
[08:01] <wompus-cat> omg
[08:01] <wompus-cat> the problem was my sound
[08:01] <kalorin> heh
[08:01] <kalorin> even better, not only did it work, it's already found that I'm running an older version! :)
[08:01] <kalorin> yay!
[08:01] <Mach3> Dictionary: fixing windows is the problem... where the heck is GRUB at??? fixmbr and fixboot (which write a new MBR and bootsector, respectively) did not get rid of it
[08:02] <Dictionary> Mach3: why dont u reinstall both
[08:03] <kaushal> Hi
[08:03] <kaushal> Do Ubuntu have Certifications
[08:03] <kaushal> for Linux professionals working in Ubuntu
[08:03] <Mach3> Dctionary: i did a "soft" reinstall.. as in, no reformat.. but if youre suggesting that i have to reformat my windows drive just to get everything working, then im going to be forced to believe that Linux is the devil and pretty much tell my friends how much it f'd me up
[08:04] <DaSkreech> kaushal: Yup Check out LPI
[08:04] <DaSkreech> !LPI

[08:05] <Dictionary> Mach3: thats not it.... what happends is windows if installed first likes to try to override everything and if uv updated it the linux booter will get confused... my sudeswtion is if u only want to play around with ubuntu is to download a program that runs it in windows
[08:05] <DaSkreech> :)

[08:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bug1 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:08] <ph1zzle> I have a question, I am trying to install a perl module (DBD::Pg) that is asking me for pg_config and I can't find it. one doc I found said to try postgresql-server-dev-8.1 but apt-get is reporting this package as broken
[08:08] <Mach3>  Flannel?
[08:08] <DaSkreech> bug 1
[08:08] <inazad> I need some help about wine...
[08:08] <achandra> wompus-cat: stick it in a different slot
[08:08] <Mach3> flannel, could you answer a question please?
[08:08] <wompus-cat> i can't just unplug my sound every time i start linux lol
[08:08] <june_> anyone know what the device's driver option should be for a via card in xorg.conf?
[08:08] <wompus-cat> i did that...still gave the prob achandra
[08:08] <achandra> wompus-cat: damn....
[08:08] <wompus-cat> yah lol
[08:08] <DaSkreech> So anyone know about screensavers?
[08:08] <rirudepanci> hi, when i run winecfg i get this error message: "libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b" and the config window does not appear, can anyone help me?
[08:08] <zealot> i like "ubotu" this name
[08:08] <Mach3> You tell me to reinstall GRUB, but i have two hardrives
[08:08] <achandra> wompus-cat: Im wondering..if there is a completely different driver that might fix it..
[08:08] <oljanx> Speaking of wine, has anyone attempted, or perhaps even had success at running Dreamweaver?
[08:09] <DaSkreech> !botsnack
[08:09] <ubotu> Yum!
[08:09] <wompus-cat> for my sound card?
[08:09] <june_> rirudepanci: funny, i'm trying to solve that problem myself, what graphics card do you have?
[08:09] <Madpilot> DaSkreech, I think Ubugtu's bug output is disabled in this channel
[08:09] <Flannel> Mach3: what?
[08:09] <wompus-cat> my sound card is an audigy SE
[08:09] <achandra> wompus-cat: that would mean rmmoding the module.. for the driver....insmoding the new one, etc, etc.
[08:09] <DaSkreech> Madpilot: Ah So how do I call on the much needed Bug 1 ?
[08:09] <rirudepanci> june_: i have no idea XD, something crappy, probably intel, this is a notebook
[08:09] <wompus-cat> mew?
[08:09] <wompus-cat> lol
[08:09] <Madpilot> bug #1
[08:09] <ph1zzle> anyone know where I might find pg_config for postgres or where I can look to find it?
[08:10] <Mach3> Flannel: ok, you tell me to reinstall grub.. i just want to make sure you know i have 2 hardrives.. windows on one (well a raid0 actualy) and linux on the other
[08:10] <lightrush> moo
[08:10] <DaSkreech> Madpilot: Why is it here then?
[08:10] <zealot> can the audigy work perfectly in linux/bsd?
[08:10] <Flannel> Mach3: you might've written GRUB to the boot sector of a different harddrive.  But yes, fixMBR will overwrite it (assuming the same drive)
[08:10] <Mach3> Flannel: that link you sent doesnt apply to 2 harddrives
[08:10] <rirudepanci> june_: u?
[08:10] <DaSkreech> !grub
[08:10] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[08:10] <june_> rirudepanci: system->administration->hardware   or something like that, you should be able to find it
[08:10] <Flannel> Mach3: that link... doesn't care how many harddrives you have
[08:10] <lightrush> !grub
[08:10] <wompus-cat> soooo....
[08:10] <Madpilot> DaSkreech, it is surpressed here. to be honest, I'm not sure why Ubugtu is here either - most of it's options don't work in this channel
[08:10] <wompus-cat> i have no idea achandra
[08:10] <wompus-cat> lol
[08:10] <lightrush> !stats
[08:10] <june_> rirudepanci: i've got a via card, it's driving me nuts

[08:10] <DaSkreech> I'll ask Seveas
[08:10] <bmgz> I am running Edgy, I can't get qemu to run the openbsd install cd? It hangs at rootdev=0x1100.... anybody else experience this?
[08:11] <zealot> june_, what card?

[08:11] <ubotu> gnome is a project that provides two things: The GNOME desktop environment, an intuitive and attractive desktop for end-users, users, and the GNOME development platform, an extensive framework for building applications that integrate into the rest of the desktop.
[08:11] <achandra> wompus-cat: hmmm..might want to do a google search to see if anyone else has had an issue with 6.10 and the card..
[08:11] <DaSkreech> right now I wanna sleep
[08:11] <jmazaredo> http://pastebin.com/889093
[08:11] <Flannel> Mach3: what makes you think multiple HDDs makes a difference?
[08:11] <ph1zzle> !pg_config
[08:11] <DaSkreech> Night!
[08:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pg_config - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:11] <june_> zealot: it's a via something or other
[08:11] <rirudepanci> june_: yeah 82830 intel
[08:11] <ph1zzle> well I thought that was worth a try
[08:11] <Mach3> Flannel: well, could you just tell me how to get GRUB off of my windows drive?
[08:11] <Flannel> Mach3: by overwriting it with windows MBR
[08:11] <lightrush> rewrite the MBR
[08:12] <lightrush> fdisk /MBR
[08:12] <Mach3> Flannel: i went iinto the recovery console and tried fixMBR  and** fixboot
[08:12] <lightrush> with windows's FDISK
[08:12] <Mach3> Flannel neither worked
[08:12] <ph1zzle> Mach3, you need to reinstall the boot sector, a windows disk will have rescue mode and from rescue mode type fdisk /mbr
[08:12] <june_> rirudepanci: i'm googling that error right now, i'll let you know if i find anything
[08:12] <Flannel> Mach3: I imagine you've got one on one drive,and the other on the other
[08:12] <rirudepanci> june_: thanks a lot :D
[08:12] <lightrush> or u can look for Super WinPE Ultra Boot CD 2004
[08:12] <achandra> or do it the linux way...with the mbr...and pipe it to /dev/null...
[08:13] <Flannel> Mach3: does changing your boot order in your BIOS work?
[08:13] <rirudepanci> june_: thanks a lot :D
[08:13] <rirudepanci> june_: im searchin too
[08:13] <ph1zzle> so no one knows what commands or how I might find what package contains a certain file / prog?
[08:13] <kalorin> what's the deafult for shared memory ?
[08:13] <kalorin> anyone know?
[08:13] <nowhere> I have some sound sync issues with a game, any idea's on a fix? Ubuntu 6.0.6 / nForce2 / Tremulous!
[08:13] <Mach3> Flannel: no, it gets further, but still dies
[08:13] <kalorin> like how big is /dev/shm?
[08:13] <Flannel> ph1zzle: packages.ubuntu.com has a search (scroll down)
[08:13] <june_> rirudepanci: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2039322    the second post says the error can be ignored, but i can't start unreal tournament so i'm not sure if it's really ok
[08:13] <ph1zzle> Flannel, thank you
[08:14] <Flannel> Mach3: then your fixmbr isn't working.
[08:14] <inazad> Its said: "libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b"
[08:14] <Flannel> ph1zzle: If you want to do it locally, and have the package already installed, there's methods too.
[08:14] <Mach3> Flannel: please read this to see my situation, if you havent already http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7620/
[08:14] <achandra> phlzzle: find / -name blah

[08:14] <CaptainMorgan> how do I chmod on only directories ?
[08:14] <macd> ph1zzle, from 0x41...
[08:14] <Flannel> CaptainMorgan: what are you chmodding?
[08:15] <ph1zzle> hey macd
[08:15] <CaptainMorgan> directories!?
[08:15] <lightrush> CaptainMorgan: chmod -R ...
[08:15] <inazad> macd, how I can fix it ?
[08:15] <Flannel> CaptainMorgan: right, which ones
[08:15] <macd> you ween you coulda asked me there ;P
[08:15] <rirudepanci> june_: i see... u surely need to config wine for games...
[08:15] <macd> inazad, I wasnt really looking at your problem, more poking pun at it
[08:15] <ph1zzle> I have been too busy to even look in 0x41
[08:15] <CaptainMorgan> lightrush, Im not looking to make -R calls, which would also affect other elements besides dir's
[08:15] <inazad> macd, ok
[08:15] <CaptainMorgan> Flannel, /var/www's
[08:16] <Flannel> Mach3: if GRUB boots, regardless of which HD you boot to, then grub is on both, which means windowsbootloader is on neither.
[08:16] <nowhere> Anyone willing to take a quick look at my question? "I have some sound sync issues with a game, any idea's on a fix? Ubuntu 6.0.6 / nForce2 / Tremulous!"
[08:16] <Flannel> CaptainMorgan: Why don't you just add your users to the www-data group?
[08:16] <Mach3> Flannel: meaning i need to do what?    im confused, i cant boot windows, and im not sure what to do
[08:16] <macd> Mach3, grub seems to be on both your drives, windows bootloader on one/none
[08:16] <Flannel> Mach3: you need to use windows disks to put windows' bootloader back on the MBR of your HDs
[08:16] <bmgz> I am running Edgy, I can't get qemu to run the openbsd install cd? It hangs at rootdev=0x1100.... anybody else experience this?
[08:17] <rirudepanci> june_: does this help at all? http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=162230
[08:17] <CaptainMorgan> Flannel, because I have a boatload of .html's which are executable and shouldn't, besides other file types
[08:17] <macd> Mach3, you need to reinstall the windows bootloader, then run grub to fix grub.
[08:17] <wompus-cat> lol
[08:17] <CaptainMorgan> I recall.. there was a -d switch. no?
[08:17] <liberthy> salut tlm
[08:17] <Flannel> CaptainMorgan: oh, you want to chmod the files, not the directory.  chmod -R is recursive, and just make them a-x
[08:17] <wompus-cat> i can't find any info...it's like i'm the only one havin the prob
[08:17] <Mach3> any way to install the windows bootloader other than fixMDR or fixboot from the recovery console on the windows cd?
[08:17] <june_> rirudepanci: not exactly for me, but it should be good for you
[08:18] <Flannel> Mach3: not that I'm aware of.  You might ask in ##windows
[08:18] <liberthy> comment aller sur un chat ubuntu en francais svp

[08:18] <HymnToLife> !fr
[08:18] <rirudepanci> june_: whats your card?
[08:18] <lightrush> Mach3: 1. Disconnect the drive that u DO NOT want to modify 2. Find something to boot Windows Command Prompt (usually 98 one) diskette or CD. 3. run "fdisk /MBR"
[08:18] <CaptainMorgan> I realize -R is recursive, but if I do chmod go-wx rootdir/ -R that will include rootdir's sub dir's permissions.. ?
[08:18] <june_> a via something, it's a piece, plus the drivers are shoddy
[08:18] <liberthy> merci ubotu
[08:18] <achandra> wompus-cat: Interesting problem though..somehow there is a conflict of sorts...I wonder if it is a driver issue.
[08:18] <HymnToLife> CaptainMorgan, yes, that's the whole point of recursiveness
[08:18] <Mach3> i will try fdisk /MBR    thanks
[08:19] <macd> CaptainMorgan, that will do everything rootdir/*/*
[08:19] <wompus-cat> je parlez en fraincais en peu liberthy....essayer #ubuntu-fr
[08:19] <unop> Mach3,  if you install the windows bootloader you will ruin grub .. the idea with dual-booting is that you use grub .. the windows mbr is hopeless with dual booting
[08:19] <wompus-cat> yeah...it's real weird achandra
[08:19] <CaptainMorgan> nevermind, my point is not being made clear
[08:19] <wompus-cat> it works fine in ubuntu 6.06
[08:19] <macd> unop, he still needs to reinstall the windows bootloader, then grub.
[08:19] <wompus-cat> mmmm
[08:20] <unop> macd, what?? no no no .. just grub will do .. grub will overwrite the windows bootloader
[08:20] <achandra> wompus-cat: might want to see whether a similar driver or a new driver will work??
[08:20] <wompus-cat> gotta have cheese with my whine :p
[08:20] <wompus-cat> for my sound card?
[08:20] <Mach3> unop: i would LOVE for grub to work. but no one can help me fix it.   im just frustrated b/c I cant get back to my files in windows, and grub isnt working
[08:20] <achandra> yep
[08:20] <wompus-cat> i dunno where to look....the soundblaster site dun have one
[08:20] <HymnToLife> Mach3, what's your problem with GRUB ?
[08:20] <Flannel> Mach3: If you're using the menu.lst you pasted earlier, there's NO windows option on it.
[08:20] <macd> unop, windows cant boot, as in it doesnt even know it exists, grub cant fix a windows boot issue, he needs to reinstall the windows bootloader, then grub to be able to boot both.
[08:20] <unop> Mach3,  you say raid0 here?? is this via a raid controller or software raid?
[08:20] <Mach3> software/motherboard
[08:21] <unop> macd,  grub can boot windows
[08:21] <wompus-cat> i have a soundblaster audigy SE achandra
[08:21] <vik> which is the best package to get ntfs running on ubuntu: ntfs-3g or libntfs8 ?
[08:21] <macd> unop, not when its not the first OS on the drive, at least thats the impression Im under
[08:21] <achandra> wompus-cat: one sec
[08:21] <Flannel> vik: you mean ntfs writing?  (since linux can read NTFS no problem)
[08:21] <wompus-cat> okie
[08:21] <vik> Flannel: yep
[08:21] <Flannel> macd: yes it can.  You just have to do some tweaking to fool windows.
[08:22] <macd> hiding it from its own stupididty prolly isnt the best idea ;P
[08:22] <unop> macd,  he's using a seperate drive for linux -- windows is installed on the raid array
[08:22] <cmd_> Hello everybody
[08:22] <unop> macd,  have you attempted to add an entry for windows in your grub's menu.lst?
[08:22] <cmd_> This there somebody?
[08:22] <macd> unop, I dont dual boot anything
[08:22] <Flannel> vik: ntfs-3g just went out of beta, version 1.0, as for it's stability...
[08:23] <Mach3> Flannel: yes, someone pointed that out.. i made an entry (not knowing what i was doing at all mind you)  when i tried hd0,0  it said"invalid or unsupported executable format" , and when i tried hd1,0  it just said "Starting up...." and sat there
[08:23] <ryan_> how much disk space does a default ubuntu install take?
[08:23] <unop> err, sorry macd .. mach3 ^^
[08:23] <Flannel> ryan_: couple of gig
[08:23] <unop> the side effects of tab-complete :)
[08:23] <ryan_> I need a very specific number, a ballpark won't really do
[08:23] <stooges> i'm fairly new on linux.. i just downloaded firefox and already extracted it.  now how do i run the installation, i can't seem to find it.
[08:23] <ryan_> within 10MB would be best
[08:23] <vik> libntfs8 is in the 'official' ubuntu repos, but I've heard good things about ntfs-3g
[08:23] <Mach3> unop, see my message to Flannel
[08:23] <wompus-cat> 10MB?
[08:24] <wompus-cat> or...GB?
[08:24] <ryan_> wompus-cat, I mean an estimate within 10MB
[08:24] <ryan_> stooges,  firefox is installed on ubuntu by default, why are you trying to install it again?
[08:24] <wompus-cat> 10MB isn't plausible for an operating system i wouldn't think
[08:24] <pavs> my usb external HD is read only after pluging it in. how do i make it read and write i want to be able to delete files.
[08:24] <ryan_> ffs wompus-cat I mean I need an estimate with +/- 10MB accuracy
[08:24] <stooges> well there seems to be some error on firefox with program so i am updating from 2.0.0.1 to 2.0.0.2
[08:24] <macd> pavs, is your external harddrive ntfs?
[08:24] <unop> Mach3,  ok, there's a lot of ambiguity here .. whats the current setup now? one drive attached with ubuntu installed  on it, right?
[08:24] <wompus-cat> ffs ryan_ u didn't say that
[08:25] <ryan_> ffs wompus-cat it should have been obvious when I said "an estimate within 10MB"
[08:25] <Mach3> unop, see http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7620/
[08:25] <achandra> wompus-cat: try this - http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_configure_sound_to_work_properly_in_GNOME
[08:25] <wompus-cat> no......i assumed it was a typo
[08:25] <stooges> i mean on the way every time i close it.. then later i reopen it keeps on saying the firefox previously crashed, and want to restore again.
[08:25] <unop> Mach3,  aye, i am reading it
[08:25] <pavs> macd yes
[08:25] <Flannel> ryan_: 3GB is what the official site says, for a desktop system.  But if you need to skimp on space, grab the alternate CD, install the "server" option, then install whatever lightweight WM you want.  Xubuntu requires only 1.5GB
[08:26] <stooges> so want to learn how to reinstall firefox with the latest version.
[08:26] <wompus-cat> saying within 10mb accuracy would have made more sense
[08:26] <Flannel> achandra: don't use ubuntuguide
[08:26] <Flannel> !firefox | stooges
[08:26] <ubotu> stooges: 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
[08:26] <achandra> Flannel: why??
[08:26] <macd> pavs, you need to install NTFS write capibility, its covered fairly well here: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009
[08:26] <jmazaredo> is there a way to make my xserver reinstalled with default configuration
[08:27] <ryan_> thank you Flannel
[08:27] <wompus-cat> the thing is tho achandra, that it works fine if i'm not using the nvidia driver
[08:27] <pavs> macd tnx

[08:29] <ubotu> Joe2: 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
[08:29] <achandra> wompus-cat: and a smart one at that! :)
[08:30] <wompus-cat> lol
[08:30] <VonFluffy>  chinese characters :\
[08:30] <wompus-cat> but yeh...i have probs with my audigy SE and nvidia drivers....i take my sound card out and i boot, i put it in and it hangs
[08:31] <Joe2> I tried loading the drivers manually but still no effect
[08:31] <achandra> Im trying to think through this...
[08:32] <wompus-cat> me too
[08:32] <achandra> wompus-cat: you have the sound-mixer installed right?
[08:32] <Joe2> lspci shows the module but it just dosent work
[08:32] <wompus-cat> that i do....i think
[08:32] <achandra> wompus-cat: any settings in there that you can mute out... and try again?
[08:32] <wompus-cat> i have everything off of the basic install from the Ubuntu 6.10 cd
[08:32] <jmazaredo> can i uset apt-get remove xserver-xorg* to remove all xserver componets and reinstall it?
[08:32] <wompus-cat> i want it workin tho lol
[08:32] <nowhere> I have some sound sync issues with a game, any idea's on a fix? Ubuntu 6.0.6 / nForce2 / Tremulous!
[08:32] <Flannel> wompus-cat: with all these problems with edgy, why not just stick with Dapper?
[08:33] <Mach3> unop: any ideas?
[08:33] <wompus-cat> cuz edgy has more options for the drivers fer my sound card
[08:33] <HymnToLife> jmazaredo, why not apt-get install --reinstall ?
[08:33] <wompus-cat> and i couldn't get firefox 2.0 with dapper
[08:33] <ryan_> HymnToLife, I don't believe that will work
[08:33] <HymnToLife> !firefox
[08:33] <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
[08:33] <achandra> wompus-cat: Id have to agree with him...considering..now that you have to choose sound or video...and that sounds like less choices..lol
[08:33] <ryan_> there is a dpkg --something option to reinstall with the maintaner's config file
[08:34] <wompus-cat> hey, i can live with every time i want to boot into linux i have to rip out my sound card.......lol....yeah right
[08:34] <jmazaredo> will overwrite existing configurations?

[08:41] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:41] <unop> Mach3,  if i were you i would use the XOSL bootloader .. it's pretty easy to setup and should hit two birds with one stone here
[08:41] <achandra> wompus-cat: that should be in the upgrades...if you're connected and synaptic will take care of the rest
[08:41] <khaije1> Dictionary: this only means that one of the online repo's you've been using isn't at that address anymore
[08:41] <wompus-cat> okie.....it better work lol
[08:41] <Mach3> unop, ok so is this something thats easy  to search and setup?
[08:42] <khaije1> Dictionary: areyou the one that set it up?
[08:42] <wompus-cat> i'll be bak ^.^
[08:42] <achandra> wompus-cat: is the name from kitty-wompus like "off kilter" or??

[08:46] <khaije1> Dictionary: if i were you though i'd go to that webpage in my web browser and try to see where it moved to and just update the entry -- that is if you still want that repo to be avialable
[08:46] <TheInfinity> hmm ... one question ... i have some people from an NGO (i hope this is the right word also for little education organisations) who need new computers. they have really 0 experience with computers, the only thing they know is their windows xp from home. is there a way to make (k)ubuntu looking like windows? otherwise it will be a windows network and thats not good for me because it means more work
[08:47] <foxiness> i want to upgrade my current system to herd4? any how to?
[08:47] <Dictionary> khaije1: it worked and its ok i haft to update the program anyway im updating to ubuntu X.10
[08:47] <gaten> TheInfinity:  there are a couple of WM that look alot like windows
[08:47] <stooges> now there is X.11
[08:48] <khaije1> TheInfinity: i find that kde is familiar enough for most people, not true?
[08:48] <achandra> Yo..anyone use the kickstart feature with ubuntu to install over the network??
[08:48] <TheInfinity> would you recomment an own window manager or something like an theme for kde?
[08:48] <gaten> TheInfinity:  http://www.xpde.com
[08:48] <Tomcat_> foxiness: gksu update-manager -d I think... make a backup before.
[08:48] <unop> TheInfinity,  that's really unnecessary .. KDE is as easy as it gets, the environments will be a little familiar at first for a few days but then it gets easy
[08:48] <TheInfinity> khaije1: these people find it difficult to use open office instead of MS office ...
[08:49] <khaije1> TheInfinity: there is a theme called redmond, which is more similar but uglier than the default in kde
[08:49] <HymnToLife> I wish people would stop that "KDE is for stupid Windows users" rubbish...
[08:49] <TheInfinity> i wont have any chance getting linux through when it looks like kde ...
[08:49] <foxiness> Tomcat_: i wil , thanks
[08:50] <khaije1> TheInfinity: in that case try abiword  or koffice (both a little simpler and quicker that OO.o) there is a sweet spot somewhere i'm sure
[08:50] <HymnToLife> TheInfinity, your fault then, not KDE's
[08:50] <Tomcat_> foxiness: You might need to add feisty repos to sources.list first... not really sure.
[08:50] <khaije1> HymnToLife: ?
[08:50] <TheInfinity> HymnToLife: i use kde for myself, but these guy there want theyr known GUI - means that they want winxp ...
[08:50] <gaten> TheInfinity:  if you just want it to look like windows for ease of use, check out the link i posted. looks like ALOT windows
[08:50] <TheInfinity> or something which looks almost exacly like xp
[08:50] <MainEiac> TheInfinity: icewm looks alot like windows,or a kde-theme may be your soloution
[08:51] <achandra> use vmware in linux then run winblows.
[08:51] <khaije1> hehe
[08:51] <TheInfinity> achandra: forget it - ooold computers ;)
[08:51] <achandra> ahh
[08:51] <TheInfinity> 500 - 1000 mhz
[08:51] <khaije1> TheInfinity: you've got lots of suggestions, I'm going to go back to work afk
[08:52] <TheInfinity> thanks gaten this really looks good ...
[08:52] <raf_> wow alot of ppl
[08:52] <TheInfinity> yes :)
[08:52] <gaten> TheInfinity:  sure thing. never used it myself, but the screenshots seem to fit the bill. i'd try it out somewhere first
[08:52] <raf_> i changed from kde to xfce and my cpu temp drop 20 celcious
[08:52] <raf_> lol
[08:53] <TheInfinity> i'll test it putting a computer with this "windows" to the other old pcs ;)
[08:53] <achandra> TheInfinity: on those systems...like the ones I have...win 2000 actually is better... it works great with only 300mbs of memory and that is sdram.
[08:53] <firenx> hey im havin some trouble in feisty fawn with my sound card.. i disabled my onboard in my bios because i want to use my SB Live but its still defaulting to the onboard.. any way i can disable it from within ubuntu?
[08:54] <TheInfinity> achandra: win2k would be my decition too, thats another thing i'll say next meeting, i just got an mail that they prefer a winxp look so i asked for winxp look in ubuntu ;)
[08:54] <raf_> does ubuntu network has some room i can get advice with acpi and i2c ?
[08:55] <unop> TheInfinity,  heh, sounds like you are in luck, check this out  http://wskills.blogspot.com/2006/12/linux-that-looks-like-windows-xp.html
[08:55] <c03> hi
[08:55] <c03> I can't see my battery-status
[08:55] <TheInfinity> unop: wow ...
[08:56] <unop> looks very windows-ish to me  http://bp1.blogger.com/_QOjq3sQaYvY/RYGm7zZLcZI/AAAAAAAAAHQ/txudqhbFPYM/s1600-h/02.jpg :)
[08:56] <achandra> TheInfinity: win2000 is a lot less bloated, and works well with samba based PDC. No bullshit and frankly I had the most luck with this. Flawless installs and kids are happy with it.
[08:56] <kraut> moin
[08:56] <TheInfinity> achandra: i used win2k for years until i switched to kubuntu last year, i know what you mean :)
[08:56] <posingaspopular> kraut: what does moin mean
[08:57] <unop> TheInfinity,  there's also this http://www.xpde.com/shots.php
[08:57] <TheInfinity> moin is a german word for hello
[08:57] <c03> I got acpi installed
[08:57] <posingaspopular> kthnx
[08:57] <c03> though the battery-status says 0% charged
[08:57] <kraut> posingaspopular: moin means "hello" ;)
[08:57] <c03> (though obviously my computer is still on =/
[08:58] <Flannel> firenx: #ubuntu+1 for feisty support
[08:59] <firenx> Flannel, awesome, thx
[09:05] <TheInfinity> perhaps another question ... is there something like a theme or a patch which makes openoffice looking exacly like MS office?
[09:06] <TheInfinity> then the described users wont see any difference because they just need firefox, office and mail ;9
[09:07] <PseudoPlacebo> Hi, I'm using a webcam on my Ubuntu (running the server version) and I have a USB logitech webcam hooked up to it
[09:07] <PseudoPlacebo> How can I tell which /dev/ it's coming in on?
[09:08] <Supaplex> PseudoPlacebo: xawtv will tell can help with which v4l device it is
[09:09] <PseudoPlacebo> Yeah but since this server's running headless + I manage it through SSH, will I be able to check it without a monitor?
[09:09] <unop> TheInfinity,  it defeats the point of using an alternate operating system if you are going to change it around to look like the operating system you are migrating from??  if you decide to buy your wife a honda to replace the ford she's been driving for donkeys years, you don't change the dashboard, gearshaft, seats,etc to make them look like her ford do you?
[09:09] <orangey> hmm.
[09:09] <orangey> what command gets executed by gnome-power-manager when it wants to put my computer to sleep?
[09:10] <Supaplex> PseudoPlacebo: humm I always had X for that stuff. can you use X forwarding via ssh?
[09:10] <PseudoPlacebo> I uh I don't know.
[09:10] <Supaplex> PseudoPlacebo: ssh offers it. see -X in ssh man page. or, find some other way to enumerate it w/o X
[09:11] <PseudoPlacebo> Ahhh fux.
[09:11] <Flannel> TheInfinity: there are.  Although, I don't know of any offhand.  But they do exist.
[09:11] <TheInfinity> unop: its just the problem that these users dont like any difference
[09:11] <PseudoPlacebo> I forgot that it wants my CD
[09:11] <PseudoPlacebo> How can I change apt sources? =\
[09:11] <Flannel> unop: that's a poor analogy, since they both have a steering wheel and a radio, and pedals, and such.
[09:11] <TeePOG> hi guys, i've installed the kubuntu-desktop package on ubuntu. my login is done by KDM, but it still goes to Gnome. I know i do something with update-alternatives, but can't seem to find the appropriate parameters on Google
[09:11] <Flannel> PseudoPlacebo: edit /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:11] <Supaplex> PseudoPlacebo: man 5 sources.list
[09:11] <PseudoPlacebo> Thanks a bunch, both of you. =] 
[09:12] <TheInfinity> on the other hand i dont like updating the system via VNC / windows ;)
[09:12] <Flannel> TeePOG: Under "sessions" you get a choice for what to boot into
[09:12] <TheInfinity> i want ssh ;9
[09:12] <TeePOG> thanks Flannel, it's still waaay to early and i've not had coffee. should have thought of that, thankls
[09:13] <unop> TheInfinity,  it's not a problem .. it's an obstacle that can definitely be overcome with a little "sticking with it" .. trust me, after 2 days of using OO, they'll be doing things naturally and be quite at home
[09:13] <TeePOG> thanks*
[09:13] <TheInfinity> unop: i have OOo installed there at the moment
[09:13] <TheInfinity> they use office 97 because it looks like they know ...
[09:14] <TheInfinity> its an organisation in nature education (if its right in english to say so) - these people cry if a buttonb looks another way because they dont read they remember the position of the menue points
[09:16] <unop> Flannel,  poor analogy? OO.org and M$ office have word processors, spreadsheets, presentation software, etc dont they .. the differences are just what gives each suite it's unique identity (like the cars ..)
[09:16] <TheInfinity> this is crazy i think because they will never work effective, but ... no chance to get them to learn a little bit ...
[09:16] <orangey> Does anybody know what Gnome-power-manager does? Does it run a shell script somewhere, or what, when it tries to suspend a computer?
[09:17] <TheInfinity> the difference is for example an icon which does not look the same
[09:17] <PseudoPlacebo> Supaplex: pseudoplacebo@pericles:/etc/apt$ xawtv
[09:17] <PseudoPlacebo> This is xawtv-3.94, running on Linux/i686 (2.6.15-27-server)
[09:17] <PseudoPlacebo> Error: Can't open display:
[09:18] <PseudoPlacebo> =\ is there any other way I can figure out which video source my webcam is coming in on? =\
[09:18] <YangYin> hey guys i get a problem when i try to run wine it says that its unable to start 3d acceleration
[09:18] <unop> TheInfinity,  well, i dunno who does the decision making there.. if they've approached you then its your job to point out differences, make them aware of difficulties/obstacles and give them encouragement/training .. getting OO to look like M$ office sounds like you're sweeping the problem under the carpet (the real heart of the matter is the interface and how it is structured, not how it looks, and users can and will tell the d
[09:18] <unop> ifference)
[09:20] <TheInfinity> unop: its comething like an computer pool for 15 - 20 users changing every 1 or 1/2 year - and if i explain them something then they write the exacly clicks down without understanding anything
[09:21] <TheInfinity> its the type of user where you think "would be easyer if they dont use computers"
[09:22] <Supaplex> PseudoPlacebo: try ssh -2X host while I look.
[09:22] <thescimitar> I'm having some trouble using ./configure , and I'm completely new to Ubuntu and linux in general. This is my first day, so I'd appreciate any help available
[09:22] <Agrivator13> can anyone help me get my ubuntu install working with a GeForce 8800 GTX?
[09:22] <TheInfinity> and at home they have winxp with root rights and a lot of viruses - but viruses dont matter because they dont understand what a virus is - its somehow evil but you cant explain them why
[09:23] <PseudoPlacebo> Supaplex: The 'problem' is that I'm connected to my Ubuntu server through iTerm in OS X. So I'm not sure if x-forwarding or similar would work...
[09:23] <kalorin> whooooot!
[09:23] <kalorin> vmware is working _FINALLY_
[09:23] <TheInfinity> thescimitar: would be good if you say what you like to configure ;)
[09:24] <kalorin> 3 days
[09:24] <kalorin> man
[09:24] <kalorin> crazy
[09:24] <unop> TheInfinity,  well, every beginner has his problems but it's human nature to learn and people learn well by repetition .. if you are going to get them use linux/OO, then they will have to learn, wont they?  really, what alternative do you have now?
[09:24] <thescimitar> TheInfinity: i'm trying to configure a driver for my m-audio Sonica, a usb audio-out device
[09:25] <vlt> Hello. How can I install a package (asterisk-prompt-de) without its dependency asterisk (which I compiled manually)?
[09:25] <Supaplex> PseudoPlacebo: xawtv also probes /dev/video0-3 on this system. let me try with this webcam, that ... doesn't yet work in linux.
[09:25] <TheInfinity> unop: thats why i try to get them with very very smaaaaaaall steps to linux - but if i choose too large steps they buy winxp licences ;)
[09:26] <kalorin> nah
[09:26] <kalorin> move them right to linux and just run their XP in vmware
[09:26] <kalorin> so that they can discover apps to replace their windows apps over time
[09:26] <TheInfinity> vmware on a 500 - 1000 mhz pc ;)
[09:26] <TheInfinity> clear *g*
[09:26] <kalorin> fairly painlessly
[09:26] <kalorin> and migrate
[09:26] <kalorin> oh I'm on a athlon64 3200+ /w 1gb of ram
[09:26] <thescimitar> TheInfinity:  I installed the appropriate package, unpacked it without any problem, but then when I use ./configure, I end up with a config.log and nothing else
[09:26] <kalorin> and I installed xubuntu
[09:26] <kalorin> ;)
[09:27] <thescimitar> TheInfinity: no make file or anything
[09:27] <kalorin> but I have to have my photoshop and a few other hings
[09:27] <kalorin> things
[09:27] <Mattias> is standard chmod 644 for all files on the system?
[09:27] <kalorin> matt: yes
[09:27] <TheInfinity> and they use atm office 97 instead of openoffice although both is installed kalorin ;)
[09:27] <Mattias> okay ^_^ good :)
[09:27] <Agrivator13> Kalorin, why not use wine?
[09:27] <jaguarz> but I wouldn't chmod the whole system that way :)
[09:27] <jaguarz> also see "umask"
[09:28] <kalorin> agrivator wine says it doesnt' work with several things I want to use
[09:28] <Supaplex> PseudoPlacebo: no other ideas. maybe /etc/ssh/sshd_config X11 is off to?
[09:28] <Agrivator13> Ahh, I see
[09:28] <kalorin> like photoshop/premier and some other things
[09:28] <Mattias> jaguarz: was thinking, i just moved my ubuntu config files from home dir to gentoo, and permissions are screwed on those files ;)
[09:28] <TheInfinity> hmm ... thescimitar - dont know this soundcard ... you looked into wiki?
[09:28] <Agrivator13> I've been told photoshop works with wine
[09:28] <kalorin> *I* havne't found all the replacements yet
[09:28] <kalorin> :)
[09:28] <kalorin> elements 4?
[09:28] <Agrivator13> but I might have been mislead
[09:28] <kalorin> their site says it wouldn't even install
[09:28] <kalorin> wineHQ or whatever
[09:28] <PseudoPlacebo> Supaplex: Well I think it's not the problem I thought it was.
[09:28] <kalorin> vmware's free
[09:28] <wompus-cat> boo
[09:28] <jaguarz> you can make a directory accessible, but not readable
[09:28] <jaguarz> with x
[09:28] <PseudoPlacebo> dev/video0 is the one I want
[09:29] <PseudoPlacebo> It's just a problem with my webcam_server set up or something
[09:29] <thescimitar> TheInifinity: yeah, apparently there's only this one driver available, and only for the latest build of the kernel.  I'm up to date with everything... would the specific error help you at all?
[09:29] <kalorin> wompus, did you get it figured out?
[09:29] <wompus-cat> i think so
[09:29] <Agrivator13> So, can anyone help me with my video card issue?
[09:29] <wompus-cat> i have my sound card in and the mixer says it's working, but now sound
[09:29] <jaguarz> chmod a+x /path/;  chmod a+rx /path/dir/
[09:29] <wompus-cat> no sound*
[09:29] <jaguarz> I think I got that right
[09:29] <jaguarz> anyway, probably irrelevant in your situation
[09:29] <TheInfinity> not really ... i dont have experience in usb soundcards except audigy2 ...
[09:29] <kalorin> well, there it is, the mark of the devil
[09:30] <kalorin> the winXP boot screen :)
[09:30] <jaguarz> usb soundcards sounds like a bad idea.. is it?
[09:30] <thescimitar> TheInfinity: it says "C compiler cannot create executables.  See config.log for details"
[09:30] <Mattias> jaguarz: so for config files in home dir,  chown mattias:mattias /home/dir/.configdir -R,   chmod 722 /home/dir/.configdir -R  ?
[09:30] <Mattias> is that good
[09:30] <TheInfinity> and in config log is ... ?
[09:30] <kalorin> heh
[09:30] <TheInfinity> can you upload it?
[09:30] <Mattias> ah
[09:30] <Mattias> hehe
[09:30] <thescimitar> it was great under XP jaguarz, I use it for optical out to my home theater receiver
[09:30] <Mattias> i see
[09:30] <kalorin> ssh from work -> server -> workstation -> X -> vmware to set this stuff up tomorrow
[09:30] <kalorin> should be a load of fun :)
[09:30] <kalorin> nothing but net!
[09:30] <jaguarz> you want to make every dir and file in /home/dir/.configdir/ executable??
[09:31] <Mattias> im kinda noob on the permission part :P never understood executeable ^ _ ^
[09:31] <kalorin> ok way way past reasonable bed time
[09:31] <jaguarz> afk, sorry
[09:31] <kalorin> nighty all
[09:31] <Mattias> okay 622 is okay then
[09:31] <Agrivator13> later
[09:31] <kalorin> luck n stuff
[09:31] <Mattias> maybe even 620
[09:31] <Mattias> hm i don't know whats the safest :)
[09:32] <jaguarz> dirs need the x though probably
[09:32] <jaguarz> at least on u
[09:32] <thescimitar> TheInifity: yeah, I will upload it, just a moment
[09:32] <Agrivator13> alright well, it seems everyone is busy helping other people for now, I guess I will return tomorrow night, or day if i am not busy to seek out some help
[09:32] <Agrivator13> Have a good night all :)
[09:33] <wompus-cat> this is weird

[09:41] <mattdwn> anyone feel like helping me with a broken work server?
[09:41] <mattdwn> (already 1hr 45 min late)
[09:42] <mattdwn> got 6.10 ubuntu, reset computer and i get a kernel panic - not syncing VFS unable to mount root fs on unnown block
[09:44] <mattdwn> anyone? :)
[09:44] <mattdwn> :(
[09:45] <Nalleman> I have a memory card reader on my computer. It works if I start the computer with a memory card inserted, but if I remove the card Im not able to mount it again. Is this a common problem?
[09:45] <oggy_> is there an email client that handles hotmail accounts
[09:45] <oggy_> ?
[09:46] <oggy_> works with linux?
[09:46] <SEATHER_> thunderbird
[09:46] <gordonjcp> Nalleman: what does dmesg say when you reinsert the card?
[09:46] <SEATHER_> you just need to set the servers right
[09:47] <gordonjcp> mattdwn: what did you do to it before you rebooted?
[09:47] <mneptok> people still use Hotmail?
[09:48] <oggy_> seather is there a how to ?
[09:48] <mneptok> oggy_: http://lifehacker.com/software/hotmail/check-hotmail-using-thunderbird-34583.php
[09:48] <Nalleman> gordonjcp, i get this message http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7622/
[09:49] <mneptok> Google + "hotmail thunderbird" = magic
[09:49] <gordonjcp> hm, weird
[09:49] <gordonjcp> is it an mmc card?
[09:50] <babo> what's the best way to check whether or not I have a certain package installed ?
[09:50] <Nalleman> gordonjcp, mmc? its a sd card :)
[09:50] <SEATHER_> oggy: check google or a help in thunderbird
[09:52] <SEATHER_> oggy: you actually need to set up a free pop server to use thunderbird, check this thread: http://www.velocityreviews.com/forums/t10664-hotmail-in-thunderbird.html
[09:52] <gdb> babo: dpkg -l package_name
[09:53] <babo> I want to know whether I'm using a certain drivers or not. bcm43xx. I can do an apt-cache search bcm43 and they come up. But I don't know whether or not I'm using them ...
[09:53] <gdb> babo: or dpkg -l | grep package_name (some part of the name if you're not sure of the exact name)
[09:53] <babo> gdb: k thanks
[09:53] <gdb> babo: sure thing ;-)
[09:53] <SEATHER_> oggy: try hotpop http://www.boolean.ca/hotpop/
[09:53] <TeePOG> morning all
[09:54] <eck> morning
[09:54] <billy> hello?
[09:54] <Nalleman> gordonjcp, what is the message supposed to be for dmesg?
[09:54] <rkyraccoon55> how can i change permissions on a mounted drive?
[09:54] <KenSentMe> billy, hi
[09:54] <billy> g'mornin
[09:54] <gordonjcp> Nalleman: not sure, now I come to play with it myself I see a lot of messages I don't recognise...
[09:54] <billy> this is the first time I've signed in to a XChat.
[09:54] <eck> rkyraccoon55: chmod, or possibly in the mount command, depending on the filesystem
[09:54] <SEATHER_> oggy: even better, http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=439333 <---- this has extentions for checking hotmail/webmail for thunberbird
[09:55] <babo>  gdb: Is it strange that there's no apt tool to do that ?
[09:55] <Nalleman> gordonjcp, :)
[09:55] <eck> the man page for mount has details
[09:55] <rkyraccoon55> eck: you're gonna have to be specific, im new to linux
[09:55] <eck> babo: apt-cache
[09:55] <eck> rkyraccoon55: what filesystem is it?
[09:55] <rkyraccoon55> eck: its an ntfs file system
[09:55] <gdb> babo: $ apt-cache search package_name (look to see if it's in state "install ok installed"
[09:55] <rkyraccoon55> eck: set to read only
[09:55] <gdb> er apt-cache show package_name
[09:55] <babo> gdb: ahh ... OK, it wasn't installed
[09:56] <gordonjcp> Nalleman: seems Ubuntu does it a different way from the one I'm used to
[09:56] <gdb> apt uses dpkg in the background
[09:56] <Kaso> Howcome im getting "bash: /bin/ps: cannot execute binary file" when i try to execute programs and stuff
[09:56] <eck> rkyraccoon55: by default i think all the files are owned by root, if you add a uid= or gid= option you can change that behavior
[09:56] <eck> e.g. mount -o uid=1000 gid=1000 -t ntfs /dev/hda10 /mnt/ntfs
[09:56] <SEATHER_> anyone know the console command to check for what computers are connected to the network. Hostnames, IPs, etc?
[09:57] <eck> actually the options are separated by a comma
[09:57] <rkyraccoon55> eck: ok thanks
[09:57] <eck> so uid=1000,gid=1000
[09:57] <KenSentMe> Does anyone know where Xchat defines what browser is used to open links? Now it opens Mozilla, although i want Firefox. The standard app. in Gnome is Firefox btw
[09:57] <eck> if you look at the man page, it has the full details on the options that ntfs supports
[09:57] <eck> i think the graphical help tool will display man pages and make them searchable
[09:58] <Nalleman> gordonjcp, ok, maybe Ill just leve it for now, it's not crucial at the moment
[09:58] <babo> how do I find out what drivers my wireless and touchpad are using ?
[09:58] <billy> How many of you all use firewalls and antivirus software with Edgy?
[09:58] <eck> rkyraccoon55: in the graphical help tool, if you type man:mount in the search box it will jump to the man page
[09:59] <TeePOG> billy: you mean use edgy _as_ a firewall?
[09:59] <billy> no.  i mean like, downloading firestarter and using it.
[09:59] <billy> firestarter being a firewall program.
[09:59] <Lucifell> I use Moblock
[09:59] <TeePOG> ah. no, sorry, I use IPCop / Endian as my standalone firewalls
[09:59] <kaushal> Hi
[10:00] <TeePOG> which has HAVP and so on, for on-the-fly antivirus scanning
[10:00] <billy> Oh OK.  I'm really just looking to know *if* people are using firewalls.
[10:00] <kaushal> I am Kaushal from India
[10:00] <kaushal> Any training and certification centers are available in India
[10:00] <kaushal> for LPI-101,LPI-102 & LPI-199(Ubuntu Certified Professional)
[10:00] <eck> billy: just let your router take care of it
[10:00] <billy> don't use one.
[10:01] <kaushal> i did wrote a email to info@lpi.org
[10:01] <eck> well that's a good reason not to let it take care of it :-)
[10:01] <billy> :] 
[10:01] <billy> though i've thought of using one, for my laptop.
[10:02] <Lucifell> I'd say overall it's not necessary but I'm much more comfortable behind NAT/router
[10:02] <TeePOG> it's a better idea than _not_ having a firewall, indeed billy
[10:02] <babo> My wireless works fine, but someone said that my touchpad issues could be solved if I install the ndiswrappers. Does that sound reasonable ?
[10:03] <billy> well, i'm a newb.  just came from windows.  i think some bad places got hold of my IP address, so i figured a firewall would be best.
[10:03] <billy> got hold of it while using windows, that is.
[10:03] <TeePOG> erm, i've not heard of ndiswrapper doing anything else than network cards
[10:03] <TeePOG> billy: you on dialup/DSL?
[10:03] <billy> cable.
[10:03] <eck> kaushal: the contact on the ubuntu side is billy cina
[10:04] <eck> http://www.ubuntu.com/partners/training
[10:04] <TeePOG> ah. static IP then?
[10:04] <billy> i keep the same one for a while, i think.
[10:04] <eck> usually if you reset the modem you will get a new ip
[10:04] <kaushal> Thanks eck
[10:04] <TeePOG> billy: what I would do in your case would be to take an old p-II or p-III box and install IPCop on it
[10:05] <kaushal> so you mean i should shoot a mail to her
[10:05] <eck> i guess so
[10:05] <kaushal> she or he
[10:05] <eck> if the lpi people haven't responded
[10:05] <billy> hmm... i usually reset my modem everyday, but i've seen the same IP address frequently.
[10:05] <billy> That's a good idea TeePOG.
[10:05] <Lucifell> Well lately on Comcast I don't see many changes in IP addy
[10:06] <billy> i use comcast too.
[10:06] <Lucifell> That may be due to specific service package or overall shift in behavior
[10:06] <eck> billy: normally you don't really have to worry about running a firewall though
[10:06] <eck> not on a residential network
[10:06] <Lucifell> yeah, that's why I mentioned it billy
[10:06] <Lucifell> Something else to consider
[10:06] <billy> why does the font color keep changing?
[10:07] <billy> ur probly right, i obsess though. :)
[10:07] <eck> on your home computer, you probably aren't really running any interesting services, and if you have a server plus a desktop/laptop you already have a gateway set up
[10:07] <TeePOG> i find the proxying is enough reason to put up a separate firewall... allocate a nice 10gig or so to proxy space
[10:08] <TeePOG> and if you have kids in the house, the Dansguardian content filter might be a good idea
[10:08] <mneptok> eck: most people trying to break in are more interested in what services they can run than what the user runs.
[10:08] <Lucifell> Well if you only have one computer it's usually not a big deal
[10:08] <starz> eh
[10:09] <eck> mneptok: yes, but they won't be able to break in unless you are running a vulnerable service
[10:09] <starz> anyone know of a backports of the latest gtkpod for dapper ?
[10:09] <Lucifell> But if you have more than one, chances are yo'll eventually want shares etc and then you have the security trade-off
[10:09] <billy> yeah, i run no servicse.
[10:09] <mneptok> eck: not true.
[10:09] <eck> mneptok: what other attack vector?
[10:09] <TeePOG> anyway, I put up an Endian box and put in a madwifi-compatible PCI card ... now I have a captive wifi hotspot @ my house :-D
[10:09] <eck> starz: it is very easy to compile
[10:09] <Lucifell> billy if you're not running services then it's probably not something to stress over
[10:09] <billy> Sweet TeePOG>
[10:10] <mneptok> eck: vulnerable client apps (how many remote holes in IE over the years?)
[10:10] <billy> Lucifell: good to know.
[10:10] <starz> eck not so much
[10:10] <billy> thanks
[10:10] <eck> mneptok: yes, but on linux they will not be running as anything with privileges worth a damn
[10:10] <tanlaan> what program could i use to edit a pdf file? Like, i need to seperate one pdf into multiple pdf files.
[10:10] <starz> seems there are a lot of dependancies that are not satisfied by dapper
[10:10] <TeePOG> indeed billy, and since it's a captive hotspot, people trying to surf for free get a nice login screen. just resell access per MB or something
[10:11] <mneptok> eck: again, not true. that's why we have a dedicated employee for security audits.
[10:11] <billy> $10 cover.
[10:11] <mneptok> tanlaan: cut?
[10:11] <Kaso> Which program can i use to list the locations of my backup superblocks ive forgotten the command
[10:11] <TeePOG> lol indeed
[10:11] <eck> a corporate network is entirely different

[10:12] <starz> see the thing is i dont wanna compile current version
[10:12] <tanlaan> mneptok: ahh ok
[10:12] <starz> i wanna compile the _latest_ version
[10:12] <tanlaan> mneptok: ill check it out
[10:12] <Lucifell> billy, consider a router the next time you are in a position to upgrade hardware
[10:12] <mneptok> eck: no. Canonical. we have an employee doing nothing but security audits of Ubuntu. daemons *and* client apps.
[10:13] <starz> i need 99.8  not 99.2 eck; feel me?
[10:13] <mneptok> eck: and last week we patched a *nasty* remote hole in Ekiga.
[10:13] <terribleCabbage> Hello. Playing sound with both ALSA and ESD works, but any sort of recording app (gnome-sound-record, audacity) doesn't work ("Your audio capture settings are invalid.", etc). Any ideas?
[10:13] <eck> starz: are you mixing repositories?
[10:13] <mneptok> Ekiga != service ;)
[10:13] <eck> mneptok: dare i ask, when are we going to see selinux in ubuntu?
[10:14] <mneptok> eck: when SELinux isn't a complete mess of conflicting implementations ;)
[10:14] <starz> eck just for a second there to show you what i meant.
[10:14] <eck> haha, i don't think that will be anytime soon
[10:14] <mneptok> 'zackly
[10:14] <billy> how would i create a mount point for a partition that i've added.
[10:15] <eck> well, it would be kind of useful... at work my company was just bought by a much larger company (yahoo), and they have a lot of insane security policies that required writing a lot of code to run in jails
[10:15] <KenSentMe> billy, this is handled in the file /etc/fstab. The best way is to check the current lines and copy them to mount the new partition
[10:15] <eck> it would have been possible to do with a custom selinux policy
[10:16] <mneptok> eck: use VMs and chroots.
[10:17] <eck> mneptok: that is what we are doing, but it ended up being kind of hackish (partially because we have to run some proprietary applications)
[10:18] <terribleCabbage> So. Umm.
[10:18] <billy> KenSentMe:  thanks.  but I'm not sure what you mean "copy them to the new mount partition" ??
[10:19] <KenSentMe> billy, just take the line of a current mounted partition, adjust that one to match the newly created partition and put it under the other lines
[10:19] <mo^> could someone tell me which panel is used here: http://fhatsoft.googlepages.com/2007-02-24-161441_1280x1024_scrot.png ?
[10:20] <billy> KenSentMe:  ok.  now I know what you mean.  thanks.  but I don't know the mount point for /dev/sda4.
[10:20] <eck> mo^: fluxbox
[10:21] <KenSentMe> billy, just create a new folder, wherever you want it. For example /mnt/newpartition
[10:21] <starz> sigh.
[10:21] <KenSentMe> billy, you can define the mountpount yourself
[10:21] <starz> eck trying to compile lib then gtkpod again.
[10:21] <mo^> eck: you mean fbpanel?
[10:21] <Kaso> i've had my superblock go bad three times in as many days, do i have a bad hard drive? am i doing something wrong? Is there something i can do?
[10:21] <eck> mo^: it looks like the bundled panel with fluxbox
[10:21] <eck> i'm not sure what it is called
[10:21] <billy> KenSentMe: cool.  i was hoping it would be that easy.  do i have to create a text file?
[10:22] <eck> starz: you just need to install those libraries, i doubt that you need anything more recent than what you have, as long as they are present
[10:22] <KenSentMe> billy, no, create the folder and add a new line to /etc/fstab
[10:22] <eck> if so you can upgrade those on an individual basis
[10:22] <starz> eck no
[10:22] <starz> i need the _latest_
[10:22] <starz> the latest gtkpod depends on the latest library.
[10:22] <eck> starz: what is the configure message?
[10:23] <eck> when you configure the library
[10:23] <starz> in order to get my cell phone's itunes working it has to be that one
[10:23] <billy> KenSentMe: cool.  something like sudo mkdir /mnt/sda4 ?
[10:23] <Xif> How can I change my default text editor from GEdit to GVim?
[10:23] <starz> oh it seems to go fine when i compile the library
[10:23] <starz> lets go on to the actual package and see what happens..
[10:23] <mneptok> Xif: right-click a text file
[10:23] <KenSentMe> billy, yep
[10:24] <compilerwriter> anyone think they can help me with no-ip?
[10:24] <eck> starz: if the package isn't backported, you have a couple options. you can compile it and write your own package, or you can compile it and just install it to somewhere like /usr/local and change your prefix to use that path before others
[10:24] <starz> yeah
[10:24] <starz> im installing to /usr/local/lib
[10:24] <eck> i would just compile both the lib and the actual application and install them with the /usr/local prefix
[10:24] <Xif> mneptok: yeah, I know how to open a single file with GVim. I'm asking how I can make GVim my default editor, .e.g the editor that would open when I double click .php files.
[10:24] <oggy> anyone know what hotmail incoming and outgoing servers are?
[10:25] <eck> or to ~/local
[10:25] <Xif> mneptok: preferably, the editor to pop out when I double-click any file that doesn't have anything else associated with it.
[10:25] <funpop> i got a question: i want to change some icons in a basic icon-set (human): i got another icon set (glass icons) but i only want the folder and trash icon
[10:25] <mneptok> Xif: right-click a text file
[10:25] <mneptok> Xif: right-click a .php file
[10:25] <compilerwriter> oggy I no longer remember what they are.  I think you have to be a paid subscriber to use them these days though.
[10:26] <oggy> for hotmail?
[10:26] <oggy> no way
[10:26] <mneptok> way.
[10:26] <starz> eh it seems to want libgpod-1.0 instead of package libgpod0 for the main pacakge so recompileing and renaming libgpod to what it wants
[10:27] <billy> KenSentMe; something like "/dev/sda4 /mtn/sda4 ext3 auto    rw,user,noauto  0       0"  would work ya think?
[10:27] <Xif> mneptok: thanks, you are so mysterious, but it does appear on the right-click menu of any file, and I seem to be able to change it globally from there.
[10:27] <eck> starz: um, i think you are doing something incorrectly
[10:27] <KenSentMe> billy, looks ok
[10:27] <miku> Hi to all
[10:27] <starz> eck i assure you i'm  not
[10:27] <eck> starz: it should just be configure, make, make install (for the library), and then the same thing for gtkpod itself
[10:27] <billy> KenSentMe; thanks.
[10:27] <compilerwriter> If you say so oggy.  I used to have them set up for pop, a long time ago, when they offered that option for free in Winblows, but then it quit working.  When I tried to reset it up they no longer allowed me to do it in Outlook anyway.
[10:27] <starz> eck 1. i always checkinstall i hate having dirty packages aroudn that are nto easy to uninstall
[10:27] <jones> whats going on
[10:28] <miku> I'm doing the big step: From Windows to Ubuntu
[10:28] <eck> are you trying to get the gtkpod package to use your compiled library?
[10:28] <compilerwriter> Hello miku.
[10:28] <miku> I use a notebook Asus L2000
[10:28] <miku> Hi compilerwriter
[10:28] <miku> may you assist me?
[10:28] <compilerwriter> My name is compilerwriter and I am a Winblows addict.
[10:28] <jones> is there a way to show all wireless networks via terminal
[10:28] <eck> jones: iwlist
[10:29] <mneptok> oggy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hotmail#POP3_access
[10:29] <compilerwriter> The first step in the road to recovery is always admission miku.
[10:29] <eck> usually something like iwlist eth1 scanning
[10:29] <jones> iwlist rausb0
[10:29] <starz> configure: error: *** No package 'libgpod-1.0' found
[10:29] <starz> See `config.log' for more details.
[10:30] <brettw> I have a ? I just installed ubuntu today. how do I get KDE and Gnome working on the same system
[10:30] <compilerwriter> miku I am here for moral support.  I am afraid I have never tried an install on a notebook before.
[10:30] <eck> starz: you need to massage pkgconfig, i think
[10:30] <miku> ok compilerwriter
[10:30] <eck> that is over my head
[10:30] <compilerwriter> I will help in any way that I am able though.
[10:30] <billy> i must've got lost in the shuffle.
[10:30] <jones> brett sudo apt-get install kde
[10:30] <oggy> wow that sux
[10:30] <oggy> :/
[10:31] <oggy> but ive had hotmail for the longest
[10:31] <cerulean_> hi
[10:31] <oggy> :(
[10:31] <TeePOG> brettw: use the metapackage "kubuntu-desktop"
[10:31] <oggy> since windows me
[10:31] <compilerwriter> With some good luck miku the thing will just fire up and you will have only the standard changeover issues.
[10:31] <oggy> ewwwww
[10:31] <ardchoille> brettw: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop will get you the kde desktop environment
[10:31] <brettw> Ok I installed it but cant use it only gnome comes up when I log in
[10:31] <TeePOG> that installs the whole shebang, and sets up KDM as default
[10:31] <compilerwriter> oggy I have had hotmail since 1991.
[10:31] <jones> there shouold be an option there for session
[10:31] <tuxub> hi, what is the current package name for the current kernel source?
[10:32] <starz> $PKG_CONFIG --exists --print-errors "gtk+-2.0 >= 2.4.0 gthread-2.0 >= 0.14.0 glib-2.0 > 2.4.0 libglade-2.0  >=  2.4.0 gmodule-2.0 libgpod-1.0 >= 0.4.0"
[10:32] <starz> Package libgpod-1.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.///Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libgpod-1.0.pc'///to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
[10:32] <jones> brett look under session in the login screen
[10:32] <brettw> ok
[10:32] <miku> the problems are 2: the first one is the connection to internet. the second one is the external monitor.
[10:32] <billy> are GDE and KDE pretty much par for par?
[10:32] <miku> some help?
[10:32] <billy> KDE seems "prettier" on my LCD.
[10:32] <jones> billy. pretty much kde more eye candy has
[10:32] <billy> for some reason
[10:33] <brettw> ok what am I looking for?
[10:33] <ardchoille> billy: gnome and kde are quite different. You should use both and see which one you like best.
[10:33] <jones> brett there should between kde and gnome there an option to select be
[10:33] <billy> i like 'em both, really.  i think both have strengths and weaknesses.
[10:33] <starz> /usr/local/lib/lib/pkgconfig/libgpod-1.0.pc <<---
[10:33] <starz> mm i think i know wat went wrong
[10:33] <ardchoille> billy: I agree
[10:33] <eck> starz: yeah, it looks like the path is wrong
[10:33] <rredd4> brettw  click on options and then select kde session
[10:34] <starz> well i told it to compile in a specific place for hte lib
[10:34] <brettw> add it?
[10:34] <starz> lets let it do its own thing this time shouldnt be in lib/lib
[10:34] <rredd4> brettw  in the log in screen
[10:34] <eck> that's what i am thinking too
[10:34] <billy> ardchoille: don't you think they have a slightly different "feel" to them though?
[10:34] <brettw> oh ok
[10:34] <brettw> brb
[10:34] <Chubby_fingers> jhello !
[10:35] <billy> how-d
[10:35] <starz> er hi
[10:35] <ardchoille> billy: Oh, I think they entirely different look and feel.
[10:35] <brettw> Thank you that worked
[10:35] <billy> ardchoille; i find myself using GDE more though.  not sure why.
[10:36] <jaek2> ubuntu team yet again let down md users... my damn machine wont boot after updating
[10:36] <rredd4> brettw great !
[10:36] <jones> brett u can use all different types of windows managers and they will all show up in that session menu
[10:36] <eck> that's because gnome is the best ;-)
[10:36] <jaek2> dont these people do any QA checks before they release new kernel packages?
[10:36] <jones> gnome remonds me of my mac :)
[10:36] <billy> eck; they make a damned hard chess game. ;] 
[10:36] <brettw> I bet I look for 2 hours trying to find how to log into KDE
[10:36] <jones> lol
[10:37] <miku> no one can help me :(
[10:37] <starz> heh i can get through a configure now.... now lets try make on gtkpod *crosses fingers*
[10:37] <jones> miku what isur issue
[10:37] <brettw> sorry very new to this
[10:37] <starz> this is where i was getting errors before... but usually i could get through it and install it and it just wouldnt work =/
[10:37] <brettw> ok gtg later
[10:37] <billy> brettw; did you ctrl-shft-backspace and select KDE in the "Sessions" drop box at the login screen?
[10:37] <rredd4> brettw its ok
[10:38] <eck> starz: just so i don't run into this, did you set the libdir to /usr/local/lib ?
[10:38] <tuxub> kernel source anyone? :)
[10:38] <miku> no one can help here
[10:38] <mneptok> jaek2: filed an LP report?
[10:38] <eck> tuxub: just a guess, try apt-get source linux-image-generic
[10:39] <jaek2> mneptok, i'm searching to find if any already exist
[10:39] <Chubby_fingers> miku : just ask your question !
[10:39] <eck> or whatever the kernel package you are using is
[10:39] <billy> miku, jones asked to help you.
[10:39] <PwcrLinux> how I can to force the fan on for CPU fan inside of my lappy?
[10:39] <miku> but now he is offline
[10:39] <billy> oh, well just ask away.
[10:39] <miku> I have 2 problems: the first one is the connection to internet
[10:39] <Chubby_fingers> !ask | miku
[10:39] <ubotu> miku: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:40] <miku> the second one is the external monitor
[10:40] <miku> I use a ASUS L2000 laptop
[10:40] <tuxub> txs
[10:40] <miku> I am connected by a wifi
[10:40] <billy> miku, what's wrong with your internet?
[10:40] <miku> pcmcia
[10:41] <miku> if I do the pings to a google the server answer me
[10:41] <eck> PwcrLinux: try poking something under /proc
[10:41] <eck> maybe /proc/acpi
[10:41] <miku> but if I open firefox
[10:41] <rellik_> I installed graphviz using apt-get..  but when I type 'graphviz' at a prompt, there's nothing in the path with that name..  how do I find out the name of the executable in the package?
[10:41] <eck> /proc/acpi/fan looks promizing
[10:41] <ardchoille> My video collection is growing. What do you all use to catalog videos/dvds ?
[10:42] <PwcrLinux> eck: yea, they have a cooling_mode inside of /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/ATF0
[10:42] <Chubby_fingers> rellik : which "your_bin"
[10:42] <miku> someone can help me in private, I'm confused :(
[10:43] <eck> PwcrLinux: not sure if there is a kernel channel, but that would be the place to ask
[10:43] <rellik_> Chubby_fingers, which only searches my path..  I need to know the name of the executable before I can 'which' it
[10:43] <Chubby_fingers> rellik : i c !
[10:43] <PwcrLinux> eck: yea, inside of /proc/acpi/fan came up empty
[10:43] <eck> PwcrLinux: mine too, although i definitely have a fan!
[10:43] <terribleCabbage> Sorry to bother you all... Has anyone had the same problem I'm having?
[10:43] <Chubby_fingers> rellik : i though u needed location :/
[10:43] <billy> anyone familiar with using cpufrequtils and sysfsutils?
[10:43] <terribleCabbage> (Playing sound with both ALSA and ESD works, but any sort of recording app (gnome-sound-record, audacity) doesn't work ("Your audio capture settings are invalid.", etc). Any ideas?)
[10:44] <miku> :(
[10:44] <rellik_> Chubby_fingers, thanks anyway :)
[10:44] <billy> miku, do you have a firewall installed?
[10:44] <jaek2> any md users here that have updated to the most recent kernel in edgy?
[10:44] <rellik_> anyone else know how to find the files included in a package?
[10:44] <miku> no
[10:44] <PwcrLinux> eck: My cpu temp shows 156.2 F passive on my lappy
[10:44] <miku> why billy?!
[10:44] <oggy> hmm
[10:44] <starz> eck i tried doing that but it made another lib dir under lib
[10:44] <starz> thats what was messing it up
[10:44] <oggy> not bad
[10:44] <slippyr4> !wpa
[10:44] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[10:44] <oggy> irssi
[10:44] <oggy> is cool
[10:44] <billy> i've had that sort of problem with a firewall.
[10:45] <starz> had to not set it at all.. but just setting lib dir to /usr/local would have worked too
[10:45] <oggy> geez do I need to have the large beryl manager icon on my desktop
[10:45] <billy> sysfsutils anyone?
[10:45] <oggy> its annoying
[10:45] <Chubby_fingers> rellik : can't you find that out in synaptic ?
[10:45] <billy> oggy, what's keeping you from doing that?
[10:45] <Lucifell> rellik_, you tried dpkg -L <package>
[10:46] <Lucifell> ?
[10:46] <oggy> keeping me from ?
[10:46] <slippyr4> how can i connect to a WPA-PSK wireless network?
[10:46] <billy> putting a large beryl manager icon on your desktop.
[10:46] <oggy> eh no I want to get rid of it
[10:46] <oggy> i dont like it on my desktop
[10:46] <billy> right click it to the waste bin
[10:47] <oggy> but it has a lock on it
[10:47] <starz> eh dammit
[10:47] <starz> and now it wont work
[10:47] <oggy> dont I need to keep it
[10:47] <starz> gtkpod: error while loading shared libraries: libgpod.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory\
[10:47] <Chubby_fingers> oggy : sudo rm it :)
[10:47] <oggy> done
[10:48] <billy> anyone throttle their CPU frequency?
[10:48] <Lucifell> rellik_, or if it's hairy then dpkg -L <package> |less
[10:49] <oggy> just curious , I notice while using istanbul to capture some desktop video , it gave me a flv format , but I want to upload the video to youtube , is there a simple way to convert this to mpeg , is this possible?
[10:49] <starz> /usr/local/lib$ sudo cp libgpod.so.1 ../../lib/ and that fixed that
[10:49] <starz> sigh.
[10:50] <Col_Delta> hi, which PC manufacturers pre-install ubuntu as on OS?
[10:50] <Col_Delta> *an
[10:51] <Zaggynl> !preinstall
[10:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about preinstall - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:52] <gyaresu> Col_Delta: If you're here then you're capable of installing yourself.
[10:52] <Col_Delta> thats no way to get ubuntu accepted
[10:52] <Col_Delta> you can use it only if you already know how to
[10:52] <coNP> Col_Delta: you are right
[10:52] <billy> KenSentMe, you still around?
[10:53] <CheshireViking> Col_Delta, you don't need to know how to use it to install it, you learn how to use it as you install it and get used to it
[10:53] <Col_Delta> its not for me anyways, its for new pc buyers who need to keep costs really low
[10:53] <rellik_> 'esd' is using up all my CPU..  I'm assuming that is my sound daemon..  if so, how do I restart it?
[10:54] <eck> rellik_: kilall esd
[10:54] <eck> err, killall
[10:54] <coNP> the question is not if you can install or not
[10:54] <gyaresu> Col_Delta: I have the same type of clients. Pre-installed doesn't mean you won't have to train them.
[10:54] <oggy> terminal icon is huge on the deskto
[10:54] <Chubby_fingers> Col_Delta : keep the cost even lower by installing yourself :)
[10:54] <oggy> desktop
[10:54] <oggy> hmm
[10:54] <starz> thats entirely beside a few different points
[10:54] <coNP> it is if you can buy a PC with Ubuntu or not
[10:54] <coNP> I think
[10:54] <funpop> /wine
[10:55] <gyaresu> Col_Delta: What part of the world are you in. I'm in Australia.
[10:55] <Chubby_fingers> Col_Delta : installing ubuntu is actually not hard at all
[10:55] <starz> one main one of which is 1. hardware should be supported perfectly and 2. it supports manufacturers that preinstall linux
[10:55] <Col_Delta> its not about me installing it
[10:55] <Col_Delta> as coNP clarified
[10:55] <coNP> btw, Col_Delta you might ask someone on #ubuntu-marketing
[10:55] <oggy> eh only thing wrong with ubuntu for me ,is its lack of gaming support
[10:55] <coNP> it is a marketing stuff :)
[10:55] <Col_Delta> the q was if it is possible to buy a PC with ubuntu pre-installed or not
[10:55] <eck> oggy: i see that as a feature :-)
[10:55] <Col_Delta> ahh thanks coNP :)
[10:55] <Chubby_fingers> oggy : lots of games do & can run under linux
[10:56] <coNP> yw, Col_Delta
[10:56] <oggy> yes im sure they can , but how about unreal tournament 2k4
[10:56] <Chubby_fingers> oggy : it's linux native :)
[10:56] <Lucifell> What, Nibbles isn't good enough for you!?
[10:56] <gyaresu> Col_Delta: I sell computers pre-installed with Ubuntu. That's why I asked where you were...
[10:57] <oggy> but it would be hell trying to install it
[10:57] <Col_Delta> ahh kk
[10:57] <CheshireViking> Col_Delta, if you're after laptops in the uk Linuxemporium sell them with linux preinstalled
[10:57] <Col_Delta> in  India right now
[10:57] <Chubby_fingers> oggy : there is a linux installer on the UT2004 cd
[10:57] <Chubby_fingers> oggy : no easy
[10:57] <starz> and Col_Delta: http://linuxlookup.com/node/202
[10:57] <starz> that might help u a little
[10:57] <oggy> not easy you are saying ?
[10:58] <Col_Delta> UT2K$ seems to be the last major game that was released for linux
[10:58] <Col_Delta> *UT2K4
[10:58] <Chubby_fingers> oggy : you just run the installer & that's it
[10:58] <Chubby_fingers> very easy
[10:58] <oggy> let me pull out me ut2k4 disc
[10:59] <gyaresu> Col_Delta: I'm not in India. So your question (really) is: "Who sells computers pre-installed with Ubuntu in India?"
[10:59] <Chubby_fingers> oggy : 1 slight issue when installing is the CD change issue ,where the installer won't return the one disc to insert the other ,but there is an easy fix for that , let me know if you run into it !
[10:59] <oggy> eh wait a sec , im running 64bit ubuntu though
[10:59] <oggy> hmm
[10:59] <gyaresu> Col_Delta: Answer: I don't know :)
[10:59] <rellik_> esd do I have to restart esd after I kill it?  I've lost all my sound
[11:00] <mneptok> Col_Delta: Savage 2 is imminent
[11:00] <Col_Delta> well i got the answer i needed for ya gyaresu
[11:00] <Col_Delta> there are guys who sell ubuntu pre-installed
[11:00] <oggy> oh cool yep a linux installer on the dvd
[11:00] <oggy> sweet
[11:00] <oggy> :)
[11:00] <billy> anyone scale their CPU?
[11:01] <ikonia> billy mind does automaticlly for me
[11:01] <ikonia> s/mind/mine
[11:01] <billy> what program do you use?
[11:01] <billy> or does your CPU scale itself?
[11:01] <gyaresu> Col_Delta: Could be Dell soon enough. Have you been following that news?
[11:01] <Col_Delta> not really
[11:01] <oggy> nah not running
[11:01] <oggy> to bad
[11:02] <oggy> would have been nice to run ut in ubuntu
[11:02] <Chubby_fingers> oggy : if you get errors installing cos of 64bit ; try putting "linux32" in front of the install command e.g. linux32 sh "linuxUT2004INSTALL.sh"
[11:02] <Col_Delta> it was on my mind and since i was in #ubuntu already, i thought i'd ask
[11:03] <haxality> hey all, just thought I'd point out this news article
[11:03] <haxality> http://www.dell.com/content/topics/global.aspx/ideastorm/ideasinaction?c=us&l=en&s=gen
[11:03] <billy> i've been using cpufrequtils + sysfsutils, but if I don't select "performance" it drops to 400MHz and stuff freezes.
[11:03] <haxality> pretty cool, imho.
[11:03] <haxality> and I hate dell to begin with, so that means a lot :P
[11:03] <billy> wondering if I can select the range that it uses.
[11:03] <Soltek> hi
[11:03] <Soltek> .)
[11:03] <gyaresu> !hi > Soltek
[11:04] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> Hi all! What am I missing here... trying to install JRE according to ubuntuguide.org but get this: http://pastebin.se/9381 do I need to install any of those package prior to fakerooting?

[11:09] <leagris> hello
[11:09] <leagris> is there firefox 2.0.0.2 for edgy?
[11:10] <mneptok> rredd4: http://www.newerth.com/?id=downloads&op=displayDownload&category=1&file=SFE-Standalone.tar.gz
[11:10] <gyaresu> There is. You need the original game.
[11:10] <rredd4> ohh, ok
[11:10] <mneptok> rredd4: that game is free to download and play. you'll want good 3D.
[11:10] <haxality> rredd4: it's a full retail game
[11:10] <haxality> rredd4: you should be able to get a demo from unrealtournament.com
[11:11] <Flannel> leagris: If there isn't already, there will be.
[11:11] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> mneptok: yes! i know have full azureus capability!
[11:11] <Chubby_fingers> rred : the linux installer is on the cd itself
[11:11] <oggy> I have my unreal tournament 2k4 dvd but i need to run the linux-installer.sh
[11:11] <Flannel> leagris: er, I take that back, there already is.  The current firefox (2.0.0.1+0dfsg-0ubuntu0.6.10) is 2.0.02
[11:11] <mneptok> UbuntuN00B_HBG: this is why i get paid the big bucks ;)
[11:11] <oggy> how would I do that in a terminal
[11:11] <Chubby_fingers> oggy :
[11:11] <rredd4> ty all
[11:11] <oggy> linux32 ./
[11:12] <Chubby_fingers> oggy :sh linuxinstaller.sh
[11:12] <Chubby_fingers> oggy : maybe use : sudo
[11:12] <mneptok> Chubby_fingers: he'd want bash, not sh ;)
[11:12] <rredd4> my 1.3 ghz lappy is probably too slow for ut
[11:12] <mneptok> Chubby_fingers: a LOT of shell authors assume bash. it breaks things on Edgy. :/
[11:12] <Flannel> leagris: sorry, I take that back (just compared changelogs).  That version is 2.0.0.1, but 2.0.0.2 will be out soon enough.
[11:13] <ghetek> has anybody here been able to successfully get savage (linux standalone version from notforidiots.com) installed and working?
[11:13] <oggy> so
[11:13] <oggy> it would be ?
[11:13] <oggy> sudo su
[11:13] <mneptok> ghetek: i use the one from Newerth.com without issues
[11:13] <leagris> Firefox critical vulnerabilities in Firefox 2.0.0.1 (edgy) CVE-2007-0995, CVE-2007-0780, CVE-2007-0800, CVE-2007-0779, 2007-08 ...
[11:13] <Flannel> oggy: no.  Don't use sudo su.  If you want a root shell, sudo -i
[11:13] <Chubby_fingers> mneptok : thx 4 the advice : I'm not realy familiar what you're saying ...
[11:13] <ghetek> mneptok: i will give it a try
[11:13] <ghetek> thanks
[11:13] <mneptok> ghetek: http://www.newerth.com/?id=downloads&op=displayDownload&category=1&file=SFE-Standalone.tar.gz
[11:14] <oggy> just trying to get the installer going for ut2k4
[11:14] <slippyr4> can anyone help me with WPA wifi networking in 6.10? i'm trying to follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo, but the network-manager-gnome package doesn't seem to exist
[11:14] <slacker_nl> does anyone know a good howto/tutorial for encrypting a livecd (bootable linux cd)?
[11:14] <slacker_nl> !encrypt
[11:14] <slippyr4> !universe
[11:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about encrypt - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:14] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[11:14] <josh1234> question: what's the best parti new ubuntu install?
[11:14] <josh1234> partitioning scheme
[11:14] <josh1234> for a new ubuntu install
[11:15] <gyaresu> slacker_nl: package: network-manager
[11:15] <leagris> Flannel, yes, latest in edgy is 2.0.0.1 and this week where revealed much vuln and fixes in 2.0.0.2
[11:15] <mneptok> slippyr4: sounds like your sources.list needs help. network-manager-gnome is in Main.
[11:15] <ghetek> mneptok: sometimes you guys are too helpful! thanks, im downloading and installing it now
[11:15] <Flannel> leagris: right, 2.0.0.2 will be in edgy soon enough.  It takes a little bit
[11:16] <oggy> root@stalkerguypc:/cdrom# linux-installer.sh
[11:16] <oggy> bash: linux-installer.sh: command not found
[11:16] <gyaresu> slacker_nl: Sorry. My message was to the wrong nick...
[11:16] <oggy> :/
[11:17] <oggy> eh yeah game support is a bit lacking
[11:17] <yomm> mneptok : sry my connection dropped out , did you reply to my q ?
[11:18] <slippyr4> mneptok: i just realised that moments after i typed my question. Have now enabled universe and am installing it
[11:18] <mneptok> yomm: hrm?
[11:18] <yomm> hrm ?
[11:18] <mneptok> what question?
[11:18] <Flannel> oggy: ./linux-installer.sh  (the current directory isn't in the path)
[11:19] <oggy> ok
[11:19] <yomm> Where can I learn about sh /bash and how to properly use them ?
[11:19] <Flannel> oggy: or you might have to do `bash linux-installer.sh`
[11:20] <drumline> linuxquestions.org
[11:20] <drumline> linux.com
[11:20] <drumline> linux.org
[11:20] <mneptok> yomm: in Edgy and forwords Ubuntu uses dash for sh. most Unices use bash. i use zsh.
[11:20] <yomm> mneptok : I still use sh a lot to install things , would that be dangerous & why ?
[11:21] <mneptok> yomm: learning about a shell is not a single book, but ther are some good ones. search for "bash z shell" on Amazon
[11:21] <oggy> root@stalkerguypc:~# bash linux-installer.sh
[11:21] <oggy> bash: linux-installer.sh: No such file or directory
[11:22] <CrummyGummy> That horrible dash idea borked my startup scripts after upgrade.
[11:22] <mneptok> yomm: sh does not exist. it is symlinked to another shell. on Edgy, that's dash. dash does not support all bash operands. so, if your script depends on bash syntax, call it explicitly.
[11:23] <yomm> mneptok : so for Ubuntu , I'd better drop all the sh'ing :)
[11:23] <oggy> hmm im doing something wrong
[11:23] <mneptok> CrummyGummy: a worse idea is to rely on shell-specific syntax in scripts that invoke a symlink ;)
[11:23] <eck> CrummyGummy: well it was the scripts that were broken then
[11:23] <mneptok> yomm: no, just use #!/bin/bash for your bang
[11:24] <oggy> hmm im stumped
[11:24] <ikonia> oggy: if you want help - ask the question
[11:24] <mneptok> oggy: pwd
[11:24] <oggy> :(
[11:25] <oggy> ikonia im trying to start linux installer with a ut2k4 dvd
[11:25] <ikonia> ok
[11:25] <Xif> oggy: life is like that sometimes.
[11:25] <slacker_nl> does anyone know a good howto/tutorial for encrypting a livecd (bootable linux cd)?
[11:25] <ikonia> slacker_nl: the cd is burned - you can't encypt it
[11:25] <yomm> mneptok : I don't really recall ever having problems using sh though .. just lucky ?
[11:25] <oggy> I see the contents of the dvd
[11:25] <ikonia> oggy: ok
[11:25] <oggy> im running 64bit ubuntu
[11:25] <mneptok> yomm: thus far, yes, you are.
[11:25] <yomm> lol
[11:26] <ikonia> oggy: why are you running 64bit - but thats a different story
[11:26] <mneptok> oggy: pwd ?
[11:26] <slacker_nl> ikonia: no, I'm building a livecd but want to encrypt data (and I actually want to whole CD encrypted)
[11:26] <ikonia> !encypt
[11:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about encypt - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:26] <ikonia> !encyption
[11:26] <oggy> pwd?
[11:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about encyption - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:26] <palenciana> hello
[11:26] <mneptok> slacker_nl: you can't encrypt the entire CD
[11:26] <mneptok> oggy: pwd
[11:26] <ikonia> slacker_nl: there is a factiod on encyption, but I can't remember the keyword
[11:26] <Xif> !encryption
[11:26] <slacker_nl> mneptok: no, but I should be able to encrypt /etc, or other mount points
[11:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about encryption - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:27] <CrummyGummy> That was a pretty big change to make on the flip of the hat.
[11:27] <oggy> meptok pwd ? explain
[11:27] <ikonia> oggy: type "pwd"
[11:27] <ikonia> without the quotes
[11:27] <mneptok> slacker_nl: you can encrypt anything that is not required to get devmapper up and functional
[11:27] <oggy> pwd
[11:27] <ikonia> oggy: yes - type it
[11:28] <mneptok> oggy: in a terminal, guy
[11:28] <oggy> ok
[11:28] <ikonia> sheesh
[11:28] <oggy> :(
[11:28] <ikonia> quit with the :( rubbish
[11:28] <oggy> ok
[11:28] <mneptok> ikonia: relax dude :)
[11:28] <ikonia> I am
[11:28] <drumline> No :(  ??    awww...  :(
[11:28] <txete> hola alguien me podria decir porque no puedo hacer ping a mi localhost
[11:28] <txete> ??
[11:28] <oggy> ok i did a pwd in a terminal
[11:28] <mneptok> !es > txete
[11:28] <txete> hola
[11:28] <ikonia> oggy: whats the output
[11:29] <oggy> oggy@stalkerguypc:~$ pwd
[11:29] <oggy> /home/oggy
[11:29] <oggy> oggy@stalkerguypc:~$
[11:29] <ikonia> mneptok: I was waiting to see if you did !br or !es
[11:29] <CrummyGummy> :(
[11:29] <ikonia> oggy: your in your home dir - the installer is on the cd
[11:29] <mneptok> oggy: where is the shell script?
[11:29] <oggy> ok
[11:29] <ikonia> oggy: you can't run the command from your home dir when the installer is on the cd
[11:29] <oggy> oh
[11:30] <oggy> so i have to be in the cdrom0 directory
[11:30] <ikonia> oggy: you need to be in the same directory as the command and do ./$command
[11:30] <ikonia> oggy: you have to be in the same dir as the command
[11:30] <mneptok> oggy: df -h
[11:30] <mneptok> oggy: tell me where the CD/DVD is mounted
[11:30] <txete> ubuntu spanish
[11:30] <txete> ??
[11:30] <mneptok> !es > txete
[11:31] <oggy> /dev/hdc              3.7G  3.7G     0 100% /media/cdrom0
[11:31] <slacker_nl> ikonia: I could not find anything on the factoid search for encryption
[11:31] <mneptok> oggy: cd /media/cdrom0 && sudo ./linux-installer.sh
[11:32] <slacker_nl> mneptok: come again: you can encrypt anything that is not required to get devmapper up and functional << don't fully understand you
[11:32] <ikonia> slacker_nl: it is there, I just odn't know the keyword
[11:32] <slippyr4> i'm still stuck with wireless networking. my wireless adapter seems to be named eth1 , the network-manager applet doesn't see it, can anyone help?
[11:32] <ikonia> slacker_nl:  you can't encypt the dvd - as it won't boot
[11:32] <ikonia> only certain parts of it
[11:32] <ikonia> but I don't understand why you'd want to encypt a live cd
[11:33] <drumline> I'm going to need to setup a sniffing box to catch a keylogger sending logs back to "home."   What would be best program to catch it and analyze it?
[11:33] <slacker_nl> ikonia: If I can make a machine with encrypted filesystems, I should be able to do more or less the same with a CD
[11:33] <slacker_nl> (at least, that's my assumption)
[11:33] <yomm> ikonia : maybe he feels his computer is tooo fast :)
[11:33] <oggy> sudo: unable to execute ./linux-installer.sh: Permission denied
[11:33] <dxdemetriou> I have problem with nvidia's all drivers I used with dapper and edgy. when I do glxgears spins every few seconds. I found that the most times the problem is the "apt-index-watcher" and I must kill it. why this happens?
[11:34] <mneptok> slacker_nl: dm-crypt is the correct way to encrypt filesystems. dm-crypt relies upon devmapper. so you can't have the stuff that enables devmapper on an encryted partition as it starts a chicken/egg problem.
[11:34] <ikonia> slacker_nl: no - as booting a cd is different to a file system
[11:34] <mneptok> oggy: cd /media/cdrom0 && sudo ./linux-installer.sh
[11:34] <slacker_nl> mneptok: no, OK, I need a small ection unencrypted, that I know
[11:35] <slacker_nl> mneptok: that's why I want a document on what to do - most of the docs I found are related to securing data on a PC, not on a CD
[11:36] <mneptok> slacker_nl: sorry, never cared about encrypting a CD. i don't see the point.
[11:36] <Ian_> Anyone in here at the moment ?
[11:36] <slacker_nl> mneptok: livecd with sensitive data (like vpnc.conf and wpa_supplicant.conf) - and because you don't see a reason, well, I do :)
[11:36] <yomm>  Ian : but a 1000 people
[11:37] <dxdemetriou> nobody had spin problems with the glxgears? only me?
[11:37] <mneptok> slacker_nl: wpa_supplicant has sensitive data?

[11:37] <slacker_nl> mneptok: my wireless network passwords
[11:37] <drumline> Sniffing keylog emails...  anyone?
[11:37] <mneptok> slacker_nl: in an already encrypted hash
[11:37] <Ian_> Looking for info on a PCMCIA card that will work under Ubuntu, my USR one refuses
[11:38] <mneptok> Ian_: Cardbus OK?
[11:38] <slacker_nl> mneptok: they are hashed, but I just want my data encrypted on the CD
[11:38] <Ian_> Yes, old T21 laptop
[11:38] <maxx18> hey anyone here from australia? i'm having problems with the aussie repo server...
[11:38] <mneptok> slacker_nl: why not just use a USB key as /home?
[11:38] <slacker_nl> mneptok: because I want it on a livecd
[11:38] <mneptok> Ian_: USA?
[11:39] <mneptok> slacker_nl: k, good luck :)
[11:39] <Ian_> Glasgow (Lanarkshire eckshully)
[11:39] <rellik> is there anything I can do to speed up vim?  when I am using it, 'top' reports that Xorg is using up to 90% of my CPU..  any ideas what's going on?
[11:39] <slacker_nl> mneptok: thanks :)
[11:39] <samAA> hello, does anyone what the kernel address split is in dapper?
[11:39] <mneptok> Ian_: roit. preferred vendor?
[11:40] <Ian_> I'm told a Ralink chipset works
[11:40] <mneptok> Ian_: i meant "retailer"
[11:40] <Ian_> Not too fussed
[11:41] <mneptok> well, gimme a laundry list. i'm not from the UK. ;)
[11:41] <Ian_> If it's local, I can go for one today
[11:41] <mneptok> or ... i'll recommend a card from Newegg in the USA :P
[11:41] <Ian_> Ooops, sorry I came in here via Scotlug
[11:42] <oggy> oggy@stalkerguypc:/media/cdrom0$ sudo ./linux-installer.sh
[11:42] <oggy> sudo: unable to execute ./linux-installer.sh: Permission denied

[11:43] <mneptok> oggy: cd /media/cdrom0 && sudo chmod +x linux-installer.sh && sudo ./linux-installer.sh
[11:44] <CheshireViking> Ian_, I bought a Belkin pcmcia card through Linuxemporium in the uk which had the  Ralink chipset, i couldn't find any in shops that I could be certain would work with linux so ended up using mail order
[11:44] <mneptok> Ian_: at your leisure ....
[11:45] <ttmrichte1> So how does one go about updating the printer databases with a positive report?
[11:45] <Zaggynl> CheshireViking, tried ndiswrapper with windows drivers?
[11:46] <oggy> oggy@stalkerguypc:~$ cd /media/cdrom0 && sudo chmod +x linux-installer.sh && sudo ./linux-installer.sh
[11:46] <oggy> chmod: changing permissions of `linux-installer.sh': Read-only file system
[11:46] <Ian_> Belkin 802.11g 54 Mbps Wireless PCMCIA Card  ( This card, using the RT2500 chipset, has been discontinued.)
[11:46] <mneptok> Ian_: you have 2 minutes to give me a web vendor, then i go make lunch.
[11:46] <bimberi> oggy: try 'sudo sh ./linux-install.sh'
[11:47] <CheshireViking> Zaggynl, yes, i've since got those working on other laptops so I know it can be done - although I did find that the Belkin with Ralink chipset worked out of the box with Ubuntu Edgy
[11:47] <Ian_> Yeah, tried ndiswrapper
[11:47] <Zaggynl> Ah okay
[11:47] <oggy> oggy@stalkerguypc:~$ sudo sh ./linux-installer.sh
[11:47] <oggy> sh: Can't open ./linux-installer.sh
[11:47] <Ian_> That was from theLinuxemporium website !
[11:48] <bimberi> oggy: while in the /media/cdrom0 directory
[11:48] <oggy> k
[11:48] <mneptok> Ian_: WHERE WOULD YOU LIKE TO BUY THE CARD?!
[11:48] <mneptok> ffs
[11:49] <oggy> bimberi
[11:49] <Xif> mneptok: what are you having for lunch?
[11:49] <oggy> thanks
[11:49] <oggy> its working
[11:49] <Ian_> I don't mind buying from the States as long as they'll ship by Air Mail, some won't !
[11:49] <oggy> thank mmeptock
[11:49] <oggy> memptok even
[11:49] <oggy> thanks
[11:49] <mneptok> Xif: beef teriyaki
[11:49] <bimberi> oggy: cool :)
[11:51] <CheshireViking> Ian_, Linuxemporium no longer stock the RT2500 based one I bought
[11:51] <OsBrEaKeR> how do you down grade drivers
[11:51] <Ian_> I know ! Pasted it above
[11:51] <mneptok> Ian_: OK, since you can't be bothered to type "Amazon UK" or something, you get to have a random person help you select a supported card rather than a paid Canonical senior support person. :P
[11:51] <CheshireViking> Ian_, I didn't see that
[11:51] <Xif> mneptok: bon appetit
[11:53] <Ian_> My apologies mneptok, enjoy lunch
[11:59] <ardchoille> My dvd collection is growing. What app can I use to catalog my dvd collection in gnome?

[12:14] <spinster> sudo: unable to lookup hostname via gethostbyname()
[12:14] <spinster> sudo don't work :S
[12:14] <TheInfinity> sudo should work (if you use it in shell)
[12:14] <mneptok> spinster: did you manually edit passwd files?
[12:14] <mneptok> spinster: or hostname?
[12:14] <spinster> something is wrong with my hostname i see..
[12:14] <zephro_> #ubuntu-de
[12:14] <spinster> i dunno i just type that comand
[12:15] <shriphani> well open to all........ an mp4 converter please
[12:15] <bobslaede> an NFS guru please :P
[12:15] <TheInfinity> dont find any @ mp4 conv :/
[12:15] <mneptok> spinster: did you manually edit passwd files or /etc/hostname ?
[12:15] <spinster> no
[12:15] <bodyboarding_bum> help with mounting harddrive please?
[12:15] <spinster> mneptok: can you help me to i fix that ?
[12:16] <spinster> look
[12:16] <spinster> mneptok: when i open terminal look... To run a command as administrator (user "root"), use "sudo <command>".
[12:16] <spinster> See "man sudo_root" for details.
[12:16] <mneptok> spinster: i only see sudo throwing that error when people manually edit config files.
[12:16] <TheInfinity> shriphani: perhaps this: http://www.videolan.org/developers/x264.html ?
[12:16] <bodyboarding_bum> spinster: can u please give me a hand on mounting a harddrive?
[12:17] <cafuego_> shriphani: I have a custom compiled ffmpeg that outputs x264/aac (for ipod/psp)
[12:17] <TheInfinity> its an implementation of h264 - i dont know if it supports the mp4 container but - why not? ;)
[12:17] <shriphani> cafuego, please share it wimme
[12:17] <shriphani> or wait
[12:18] <cafuego_> shriphani: http://ubuntu.cafuego.net/dists/edgy-cafuego/ffmpeg/
[12:18] <shriphani> thx cafuego
[12:18] <JaccoH> cafuego .. you seem to be a real bad ass debian crack head :)
[12:19] <TheInfinity> ffmpeg uses the encoder from my link ;)
[12:19] <cafuego_> the libmp4v2 that comes with ubuntu is a bit (very) broken, so ideally you'll get yourself a copy of the mpeg4tools suite, so it cna rewrite PROPER mp4 headers.
[12:19] <oggy> geez umm just need to start ut
[12:19] <mneptok> !ohmy | JaccoH
[12:19] <ubotu> JaccoH: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[12:19] <JaccoH> nice botty
[12:19] <cafuego_> JaccoH: I gave up crack years ago
[12:20] <JaccoH> mneptok.. sorry ofcourse but i intended a compliment :)
[12:20] <oggy> either I get ut running or im going to do some crack
[12:20] <bodyboarding_bum> Any one know anything about Harddrive mounting??
[12:21] <JaccoH> cafuego :)
[12:21] <shriphani> cafuego, one more question...... can you please tell me the exact command i need to type to get ffmpeg working ?
[12:21] <cafuego_> die vieze balkenende ook
[12:21] <cafuego_> shriphani: well...
[12:22] <JaccoH> you mean potter? .. anyway .. offtopic ;)
[12:22] <shriphani> cafuego, it is huge...... ffmpeg -a avcodec blah blah...... goes on for 2 lines
[12:22] <cafuego_> ffmpeg -i <inputfile> -v 1 -y -vcodec mpeg4 -maxrate 768 -b 640 -qmin 3 -qmax5 -bufsize 4096 -g 300 -acodec aac -ar 44100 -ab 96 -s 320x176 -aspect 16:9 <output.mp4>
[12:22] <shriphani> without the <> i suppose
[12:22] <cafuego_> I have a nicer 2-stage 4-liner if you want :-)
[12:22] <JaccoH> shrugs
[12:23] <mneptok> oggy: it could be the crack habit that's making life on Liunux difficult >;)

[12:24] <kaushal> Hi
[12:24] <oggy> hmm
[12:24] <kaushal> when i type uname -m
[12:24] <kaushal> i get

[12:25] <Dyrre> My $DISPLAY variable is not set in the Gnome terminal, Does anyone know how I can set it?
[12:26] <kaushal> and what does uname -m and uname -p means
[12:26] <mneptok> kaushal: man uname
[12:26] <kaushal> i have gone through that
[12:26] <kaushal> bit confused
[12:26] <kaushal> print the processor type or "unknown"
[12:27] <Dyrre> Can anyone help me with my problem?
[12:27] <kaushal> print the machine hardware name

[12:27] <shriphani> sorry
[12:28] <Dyrre> Anyone please?
[12:28] <kaushal> and also whats the difference between em32t and em64t
[12:28] <ben_underscore> Dyrre: can you type "echo $DISPLAY" in your terminal
[12:29] <cafuego_> kaushal: Bit of googling should see you right.
[12:29] <Dyrre> It doesnt bring up anything
[12:29] <Dyrre> Blank results
[12:29] <Dyrre> The $DISPLAY isnt even set I dont think
[12:29] <ben_underscore> Dyrre: like what
[12:29] <ben_underscore> Dyrre: anyway, do this "export DISPLAY=:0.0"
[12:30] <ben_underscore> Dyrre: then do this "xhost +"
[12:30] <shriphani> cafuego, megs4tool?
[12:30] <ben_underscore> Dyrre: now test to see if X works by running something like xclock
[12:31] <Dyrre> ben_underscore: Its run
[12:31] <ben_underscore> Dyrre: it's ok?
[12:31] <Dyrre> ben_underscore: Xclock runs correctly yes
[12:32] <Dyrre> ben_underscore: but I was trying to run wine, I need to set the $DISPLAY to use wine
[12:32] <ben_underscore> Dyrre: you have to set the DISPLAY environment variable to the name of your computer (in this case nothing) because you're runnign things locally,
[12:32] <ben_underscore> Dyrre: ah, well that should work now then
[12:32] <ben_underscore> brb
[12:32] <JaccoH> cafuego ..thanks btw.. it worked

[12:35] <kenthomson> what is the the program i use to view webcam feed, or transmit it to other IM users in ubuntu?
[12:35] <ben_underscore> kenthomson: ekiga
[12:35] <Dyrre> ben_underscore: Thanks, That helped my problem
[12:35] <ben_underscore> Dyrre: anytime.
[12:35] <Nameeater> or one of the msn apps, amsn?
[12:35] <kenthomson> ben_underscore, anything else that you are aware of?
[12:36] <kenthomson> Is there a way to optimise beryl, in my system it seems really lethargic. I amhaving 512MB RAM, 128MB GFX nvidia fx5200, AMD 2600XP+
[12:37] <billy> Yo
[12:37] <TheInfinity> fx5200 is not that fast ...
[12:38] <TheInfinity> -> finetuning of everything
[12:39] <kenthomson> TheInfinity, that is all that i can afford, and that is what i have to make best of.
[12:39] <funpop> hey, is there a way to reduce the load-time of kde apps like amarok in gnome ?
[12:39] <kenthomson> TheInfinity, and i didn't get the last sentence
[12:39] <TheInfinity> amarok always loads long if you have much music
[12:39] <kenthomson> funpop, try cancelling the preferences for "watch folders for changes" in amarok. In your music library settings
[12:40] <TheInfinity> and you use original nvidia drivers kenthomson?
[12:40] <kenthomson> TheInfinity, yes sir!
[12:40] <kenthomson> TheInfinity, the latest on 9xxxx series

[12:40] <Phat32> When was Ubuntu first released officially?
[12:41] <TheInfinity> hmm ... ok perhaps get help from an nvidia guy? i have ati only here ... :/
[12:41] <funpop> am i invisible ?
[12:41] <kenthomson> ok
[12:41] <Phat32> Does anyone here know when Ubuntu was officially released for the first time?
[12:42] <kenthomson> !trivia

[12:42] <Phat32> funpop, no you are not invisible
[12:42] <kenthomson> !trivia | Phat32
[12:42] <ubotu> Phat32: please see above
[12:42] <funpop> i think oct 2004
[12:43] <Phat32> kenthomson, Can you just tell me because I am trying to write a paper for school and I need that bit of information in particular
[12:43] <doc|> TheInfinity,  i have nvidia,
[12:43] <funpop> cause the version is month/year like feisty: 7.04: -> april 2007
[12:43] <funpop> and the first ubuntu was october 2004
[12:43] <kenthomson> Phat32, don't know dude
[12:43] <Phat32> thanks funpop
[12:43] <funpop> Warty Warthog
[12:43] <kenthomson> doc|, can you help me spped up beryl on my computer nvidia fx5200
[12:44] <TheInfinity> doc|: perhaps you can help kenthomson finetuning nvidia + beryl
[12:44] <doc|> kenthomson,  yes, 1 Min please
[12:45] <doc|> Nvidia+Beryl+AIGLX , ok ?
[12:45] <kenthomson> doc|, i am having beryl on latest nvidia drivers the 9xxx series, so i think nvidia has its own backend that replaces AIGLX from the 9xxx series onwards
[12:45] <chemaja> question to "security-conscious" users of nvidia's proprietary X driver: does it bother you that ubuntu devs can't audit the code for vulns? it bugs me. maybe i'm just paranoid.
[12:46] <wietze_> how about ATI+Beryl and preferably aworking dri ?
[12:46] <kenthomson> chemaja, it may even be sending log files to various places on the net through some proprietary protocols, who knows but thats all we can do about it, worry!
[12:46] <uFo-Z> hi. since today my firefox opens pdf files inside the browser with acrobad-reader. but i want use another app for that but dont know where i could change that
[12:46] <chemaja> kenthomson, i'm having serious trouble buying a decent laptop with opensource graphics drivers
[12:46] <kenthomson> uFo-Z, somewhere in edit>preferences>file-types or maybe mime-types
[12:47] <TeePOG> what's the command to reconfigure the X server? i'm on 640x480 max :-(
[12:47] <krantix> hi! i've lost some important files on a NTFS partition using ntfs-3g... can anybody help?
[12:47] <mneptok> chemaja: anything Intel 9xx
[12:47] <kenthomson> TeePOG, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:47] <uFo-Z> kenthomson, inside of firefox i cant change that. with mimetypes you mean somewhere else outside of firefox ?
[12:47] <kenthomson> chemaja, intel is making some inroads there, but i am not familiar with its performance
[12:47] <kenthomson> uFo-Z, not outside it, let me check it
[12:47] <chemaja> mneptok, yea. i read that the fastest is intel GMA950, but this is kinda slow. which sucks. and intel don't seem to have an ETA for their nextgen chip
[12:47] <yomm> lol just made some nice linux widgets on my obligatory xp box :)
[12:48] <uFo-Z> but in my gnome or inside of mc it opens with xpdf
[12:48] <chemaja> kenthomson, which blows when all you want is a fast 3D laptop in opensource
[12:48] <doc|> nvidia user try this http://pastebin.ca/372932
[12:48] <kenthomson> doc|, i got a name, you see ;-)
[12:48] <mneptok> kenthomson: if you only had a "p" ...  ;)
[12:48] <doc|> sorry
[12:49] <kenthomson> mneptok, thats the whole story
[12:49] <mneptok> kenthomson: how so?
[12:49] <kenthomson> uFo-Z, check edit>preferences>content>file-type[12:49] <doc|> line 5,22,23,24,25,52,53,54, kenthomson
[12:50] <kenthomson> doc|, yes?
[12:50] <seravitae> wtf
[12:50] <seravitae> im hearing sound in ubuntu
[12:50] <seravitae> but a game is saying /dev/dsp is busy
[12:50] <doc|> on your xorg.conf
[12:50] <kenthomson> seravitae, you see, there are some children like me lurking in here
[12:50] <mneptok> seravitae: that game is using ESD or OSS
[12:50] <seravitae> how do i free up /dev/dsp?
[12:50] <uFo-Z> kenthomson, the thing is, there is no pdf inside this
[12:50] <seravitae> mneptok: yeah, it is using OSS
[12:51] <seravitae> kenthomson: it is good that i used acronyms then
[12:51] <CheshireViking> is anybody available to help me mounting a windows server drive/directory under Edgy, I can browse to it using Places, network servers, but I can't get the mount to work - i get "Connection to xxxxx failed, SMB connection failed"
[12:51] <doc|> I don't speak inglish so match sorry
[12:51] <mneptok> seravitae: don't hawe *ANY* other apps using the sound architecture
[12:51] <Norf-ubu> hi, just booted and got a report that 13%+ of my drive is non contingeous, how can this be if ubuntu (edgy) doesnt need a defrag?
[12:51] <kenthomson> doc|, yes i know that, but i am looking at all that file, you mean i make the line 5,22, and the others that you mentioned, in my xorg.conf like yours?
[12:51] <seravitae> mneptok: i don't
[12:51] <seravitae> i closed XMMS (which plays fine)
[12:51] <mneptok> seravitae: i mean at ANY time prior to loading the game
[12:51] <seravitae> yes it is.
[12:52] <mneptok> huh?
[12:52] <doc|> kenthomson,  line in the pastebin, on your xorg, find it
[12:53] <kenthomson> doc|, so you mean to say i make my xorg.conf look like the options that you have set in line 5,22,23,24,25,52,52,54?
[12:53] <seravitae> mneptok: i have no sound running when i start the game.
[12:53] <mneptok> seravitae: read what i said again.
[12:53] <seravitae> Yeah, then it works
[12:53] <seravitae> but i dont want to reboot my whole machine again
[12:53] <seravitae> because some program is acting 'sticky'.
[12:54] <mneptok> welcome to antique. sound architectures.
[12:54] <seravitae> can't i somehow reset oss/esd?
[12:55] <krantix> hi! i've lost some important files on a NTFS partition using ntfs-3g... can anybody help?
[12:55] <doc|> kenthomson,  my xorg, sorry , don't speak english  : /
[12:55] <doc|> http://pastebin.ca/372935
[12:55] <Norf-ubu> hi, just booted and got a report that 13%+ of my drive is non contingious, how can this be if ubuntu (edgy) doesn't need a defrag?
[12:56] <kenthomson> doc|, i got your xorg.conf, don't worry, we can work it out1 :)
[12:56] <doc|> kenthomson,  ok
[12:56] <kenthomson> doc|, have you commented out Line 5 to make it look like "#load dri"
[12:56] <mneptok> Norf-ubu: not needing a defrag != does not fragment
[12:56] <doc|> yes #
[12:56] <happytron> hi.  anyone know how to run a command from a terminal so that it isn't killed when the terminal is closed?
[12:57] <mneptok> Norf-ubu: over time ext3 will move things to contiguous blocks.
[12:57] <kenthomson> doc|, alright let me see further i too have it commented out, just like yours
[12:57] <JaccoH> happytron .. put & behind it .. or use screen
[12:57] <JaccoH> (man screen for info)
[12:57] <doc|> kenthomson,  ok
[12:57] <Norf-ubu> mneptok but why 13% non contingeous ? this is after 2 weeks
[12:57] <Norf-ubu> it was 13% 2 weeks ago
[12:57] <mneptok> Norf-ubu: why are you worried about it?
[12:58] <kenthomson> doc|, do you know what "Option         "UseFBDev" "true"" stands for?
[12:58] <seravitae> Great, now i have no sound applications running, and now XMMS won't run.
[12:58] <seravitae> and now i have no sound whatsoever.
[12:58] <kenthomson> doc|, and also what is "Option         "AllowGLXWithComposite" "True""?
[12:58] <Norf-ubu> mneptok, concerned as a google search says that non-continguous whould never be over 1 - 2%
[12:58] <mneptok> kenthomson: "use framebuffer"
[12:58] <jo__> hi, i got choppy video, somebody help
[12:58] <doc|> kenthomson,  i don't know, but work ,
[12:59] <mneptok> Norf-ubu: well, i'll tell you not to worry. ;)
[12:59] <kenthomson> mneptok, alright! and what about the difference between "AllowGLXWithComposite" and ""DisableGLXRootClipping"""
[12:59] <krantix> hi! i've lost some important files on a NTFS partition using ntfs-3g... can anybody help?
[12:59] <happytron> JaccoH: & doesn't work, but i'll check out screen
[12:59] <Norf-ubu> mneptok, okey dokes - cheers for the headsup - just wondering why though its 13%
[12:59] <RememberPOL> Hey, how can I specify non-accelerated mouse speed? (sensitivity)
[12:59] <happytron> do you know what is happening exactly, bash is sending a signal to all the processes it has spawned?
[12:59] <happytron> when it dies?
[01:00] <kenthomson> doc|, i really appreciate your effort, is there anything that you can tell me to speed-up beryl?
[01:00] <mneptok> kenthomson: 1). allow an OpenGL compositing layer
[01:03] <Seveas> happytron, it does
[01:03] <Seveas> it sends SIGHUP
[01:03] <Seveas> happytron, things like nohup and disown help preventing that :)
[01:03] <happytron> how can i prevent that signal from getting to those processes?
[01:03] <happytron> ok
[01:03] <_eMaX_> !hi

[01:06] <_eMaX_> anyone here knows for NM how to define a fix nameserver? He keeps overriding my /etc/resolv.conf and when he does that I want to make sure a given nameserver is always in there at the first position
[01:07] <jo__> kenthomson: you cannot set dma on/off with hdparm, right?
[01:07] <kenthomson> Hobbsee, that helps
[01:07] <ubuntue> can scsi be somehow related to sound blaster 16?
[01:07] <kenthomson> jo__, i don't know how to do that.
[01:08] <mneptok> ubuntue: ISA card?1
[01:08] <ubuntue> yes
[01:08] <mneptok> ubuntue: DON'T EVEN BOTHER.
[01:08] <mneptok> oops
[01:08] <jo__> kenthomson: sudo hdparm -d1 /dev/sda (if your disk is named sda)
[01:08] <ubuntue> ?
[01:08] <ubuntue> mneptok: what do you mean
[01:08] <mneptok> ubuntue: ISA + Linux = OMG SET MY FACE ON FIRE
[01:08] <happytron> Seveas: I try nohup, but still isn't working... maybe something weird about the program I'm trying to run
[01:09] <jo__> where are the video-experts?
[01:09] <kenthomson> jo__, mine is a PATA a hda not a sata one, and will that command set dma on or off?
[01:09] <Toma-> ISA sb16 cards work fine...
[01:09] <jo__> kenthomson: it will turn it on
[01:09] <ubuntue> mneptok: it worked with ubuntu default kernel=)
[01:09] <jo__> kenthomson: but just for this session
[01:10] <ubuntue> Toma do they have something to do with scsi?
[01:10] <Toma-> ubuntue: no
[01:10] <r3factored> whats the trick to finding what runlevel im running at?

[01:11] <jo__> !ata
[01:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ata - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:11] <r3factored> ha ha i found it 'runlevel' duh
[01:11] <mneptok> r3factored: man runlevel
[01:11] <happytron> ok, disown works, thanks!
[01:11] <jo__> !botsnack
[01:11] <ubotu> Yum!
[01:11] <r3factored> what runlevel am i supposed to be at? im at 2 - i thought 5 was normal.
[01:12] <Toma-> r3factored: runlevel 2 here
[01:12] <jbjuly> I have a question about update-inetd, It's installed default by Ubuntu, does it provide inetd already? I search for /etc/init.d/inetd but could not find it.
[01:12] <r3factored> Toma-: ok thanks
[01:12] <Toma-> r3factored: i think runlevel 5 is a redhat default?
[01:12] <r3factored> Toma-: maybe
[01:12] <Toma-> *shrug* :)
[01:12] <shriphani> cafuego, ?
[01:13] <r3factored> Toma-: trying to figure out why sound is not working on this ac97 sound card
[01:13] <r3factored> Toma-: thought the runlevel might have something to do with it
[01:13] <Toma-> r3factored: chcecked dmesg?
[01:13] <r3factored> yeah
[01:13] <Toma-> runlevel wont effect how a module is loaded
[01:13] <Toma-> what does it say in dmesg about it? no errors?
[01:14] <ubuntue> Toma and do i have to enable something else to make this sound blaster work except alsa and this driver?
[01:16] <bobslaede> i badly need a NFS guru of some sort
[01:16] <r3factored> Toma-: no errors that i can see. i have alsa and alsa-oss installed
[01:16] <r3factored> alsa is what i used on my notebook - it also had an ac97 but this is an amd64 system but im running 32bit ubuntu
[01:16] <zleap> hello
[01:16] <zleap> hi
[01:16] <uFo-Z> argh, i am so stupid. i installed a plugin called mozplugger and forgot it. this plugin will open all things inside of firefox :( sorry kenthomson for stealing your time
[01:16] <kenthomson> uFo-Z, never mind i too have mozplugger installed to play shockwave files, but can you tell me how did you disable it from opening all files in the browser? (i may need it sometime)
[01:17] <kenthomson> bobslaede, if all sorts are allowed i will make for a "punk" sort, where should i come? ;-)
[01:17] <Toma-> r3factored: sounds more like a mixing problem. checked the levels with alsamixer?
[01:17] <bobslaede> kenthomson: a punk nfs guru? cool
[01:17] <uFo-Z> well kenthomson i just deinstalled it. i dont like it to open pdfs inside of firefox. cant say howto handle that
[01:17] <Toma-> ubuntue: yeh, theres a few isa things you have to enable
[01:18] <bobslaede> kenthomson: ever played with nis/nfs?
[01:18] <Vigo> The partion that Ubuntu Edgey Eft was on is not showing up, how do I restore the lost partion? is it a BIOS setting or a Grub error?
[01:18] <ubuntue> Toma where exactly?
[01:18] <kenthomson> bobslaede, hey i was jokin' don't trust me, i too am stuck with problems on ubuntu, we are on the same side of the fence! ;)
[01:19] <Toma-> ubuntue: its been a while. hold tight, ill find it
[01:19] <bobslaede> kenthomson: damn that fence :/
[01:19] <jo__> #ubuntu
[01:19] <techie1> good morning. Can anybody help? I get confused in dealing with partitions.
[01:20] <Toma-> ubuntue: pretty sure if you run 'modprobe snd-sb16' youll get the module loaded up and ready to roar
[01:20] <zleap> i may be able to help with partitions
[01:20] <ubuntue> Toma i have compiled my own kernel and nope, i don't
[01:21] <Toma-> why on earth would you compile your own :/
[01:21] <Toma-> ubuntue: well, you have to compile alsa against your kernel, with sb16 support
[01:21] <zleap> if you have odd hardwae sometimes building your own kernel is useful
[01:21] <techie1> I want to dual boot ubuntu into my windows xp which is partitioned with fat32 and have 55.86 gb and free space 24.16 gb. I want to repartition to use half of the free space (24.16g) to each os) But can someone tell me the specific numbers to put in for drive 2. ext, and fat swap. etc...
[01:22] <techie1> I get all bundled up in dealing with partitions
[01:22] <zleap> i think hda1 would be your primary partition,  hda2 would be 2nd partition, etc
[01:22] <infidel> should i switch to bash or leave the default dash?
[01:23] <irpyC> hello :)
[01:23] <jo__> you guys dont bother about video right?
[01:23] <Toma-> infidel: ubuntu comes with bash be default...
[01:23] <Toma-> *by
[01:23] <Toma-> jo__: what?
[01:23] <Zero9983> i using real player to watch RMVB file , how come the movie cant running well ? like hang .
[01:23] <irpyC> hey, i ave install alternate xubuntu, but diring the install i don't enter a user, but in loggin i do enter a user :/
[01:23] <Toma-> Zero9983: because real formats are horrible.
[01:24] <infidel> Toma-, not on my system
[01:24] <Toma-> infidel: well thats bizarre
[01:24] <zleap> but things do get confusing when you have to partition,  then create partitions with in the new one,  but I usually let the installer do things,  I think I will leave it to others to answer
[01:24] <Vigo_> That makes sence, I went into BIOS to resolve it, then tried toinstall a Grub , it is just odd, I may wipe the HD and start over, >>>has backups
[01:24] <jo__> Toma-: trying to get help since somedays, but perhapps its too wide question telling "video-choppy"
[01:24] <Zero9983> Toma- but my friend watch in windows it running well , how come to linux it cant running well like hanghang?
[01:24] <techie1> Help on my dual boot? ubuntu in my windows xp pro machine
[01:24] <infidel> Toma-, in order to get the ati proprietary driver to install i had to switch to bash
[01:24] <Toma-> jo__: video??? format??? player??
[01:25] <Toma-> Zero9983: because the lovely folks at real media dont give a crap about us linux users. are you watching it thru realplayer or helixplayer?
[01:25] <irpyC> somebody know what to do :/
[01:25] <jo__> Toma-: mpeg2 / avi/ mjpeg is choppy on vlc / mplayer
[01:25] <zleap> be back later (lunch)
[01:26] <Toma-> infidel: i didnt know dash was even on the install cd
[01:26] <jo__> Toma-: same files smooth under xp
[01:26] <Vigo_> zleap: Thank you
[01:26] <Zero9983> Toma- i using real player ... what can i do ?
[01:26] <Toma-> jo__: ok, run mplayer from command line "mplayer videofile.whatever" and put the output up on pastebin
[01:26] <kenthomson> HELP; a video file .avi imported in its native resolution-setting from a DV camera, it works absolutely smoothly in windows, but in ubuntu under vlc or gxine or xine (mplayer or totem), the fast moving objects leave behind horribly noticing streaks, when they move. And there is minor noise in the video. This only occurs in ubuntu and not in windows. moreover i got all the codecs installed
[01:26] <jo__> Zero9983: did you try too switch of xv under realplayer options?
[01:26] <idefix> how come that the synaptic packet manager comes up with Packages like gpsbabel when you search for PSM? or pdfjam? I don't see PSM in those titles..
[01:27] <kenthomson> Toma-, maybe you can help me with my above question
[01:27] <mx> hay
[01:27] <Zero9983> jo__:  what u mean xv?
[01:27] <pcmacman> idefix: are you searching in 'titles and descriptions'?

[01:28] <krantix> can anybody suggest a good backup software for ubuntu????

[01:30] <Zero9983> jo__: other thing i can test ?
[01:30] <Toma-> DJAdmiral: doesnt matter dude. someone gets some remote code execution going, youll be up to your eyeballs in rootkits
[01:31] <DJAdmiral> Toma-: Unless you're on a root account cause you need to build your own distro, which is what I'm doing now :P
[01:31] <Toma-> ok :)
[01:32] <infidel> Toma-, maybe i'm not understanding maybe it's /bin/sh like this lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 2007-01-24 10:44 /bin/sh -> dash

[01:32] <ubotu> /bin/sh links to the DASH shell in Ubuntu Edgy (6.10). Since DASH is not 100% compatible with the BASH shell, some scripts might break. You can make scripts execute using BASH by changing the first line of the script to  #! /bin/bash

[01:35] <damnation> now, anyways, neither partitionmagic or the disk manager on ubuntu liveCD or the installer's disk manager lets me resize the partitions
[01:35] <damnation> and i don't want to lose the data (320gig HDD)
[01:35] <kenthomson> Toma-, how do i make my player NOT choose the wrong/old codec? but how come xine,gxine,vlc all diferent architectures make the same mistake?
[01:35] <SurfnKid> can anyone help me fix a gdm problem
[01:36] <damnation> all i can tell that's odd is that there's icons of a lock on the disk manager when i look at the HDD i want to resize
[01:36] <Toma-> kenthomson: update the codecs...somehow :/
[01:36] <SurfnKid> my session starts but there are no icons... is there a ./folder i have to remove to default everything again?
[01:36] <Toma-> kenthomson: what does 'file yourvideofile.avi' return?
[01:36] <damnation> anyone have any tips on what i should do ?
[01:36] <damnation> also, the labels of the HDD's are like random labels with no sense to it's name
[01:37] <damnation> and i can't edit the hdd's labels =[
[01:37] <Toma-> damnation: what format are the other HDD's?
[01:37] <kenthomson> Toma-, ken@ken-ubuntu:~/dv-video/panasonic-software$ file 20070225.avi
[01:37] <damnation> all HDD's are NTFS
[01:37] <kenthomson> 20070225.avi: RIFF (little-endian) data, AVI, 720 x 576, 25.00 fps, video:, audio: uncompressed PCM (stereo, 32000 Hz)
[01:37] <damnation> I want to convert some free space on one to a Ubuntu install
[01:37] <Toma-> damnation: pretty sure you can resize NTFS
[01:37] <damnation> i know about the ext3 and linux swap etc
[01:38] <Toma-> *cant
[01:38] <Pici> Toma-: You can.
[01:38] <vlt> Hello. Can I install a package (asterisk-prompt-de) without its dependency asterisk (which I compiled manually)?
[01:38] <damnation> You can
[01:38] <Toma-> Pici: well thats news to me
[01:38] <damnation> i can resize my other HDD
[01:38] <Pici> Toma-: and I have ;)
[01:38] <damnation> which is NTFS too
[01:38] <kenthomson> Toma-, the video has got minor noise everywhere and fast-moving objects look really streaky. how do i correct it?
[01:38] <Toma-> kenthomson: de-interlace it i guess
[01:38] <infidel>  in ubuntu /bin/sh points to /bin/dash not /bin/bash should i redirect the soft link back to /bin/bash?
[01:39] <kenthomson> Toma-, that doesn't help, anything else?
[01:39] <Pici> infidel: Do you have a specific reason to do so?
[01:39] <damnation> hum, ill be back soon
[01:39] <tealson> i got an error with any installation of ubunt during boot time on my laptop. grub is loaded but after this i get the error: "Unknown interrupt or fault at EIP 00000060 c0100295 00000294" does anyone know whats this about?
[01:39] <kenthomson> Toma-, in windows it runs just fine, is there some way i can run windows-media-player in wine on ubuntu or something crazy to solve this annoyance?
[01:39] <infidel> Pici, other than bash is a fuller version?
[01:40] <Toma-> kenthomson: you can use qemu to run windows :/ pretty sure you cant run windows media in wine...
[01:40] <Toma-> but i could be wrong
[01:40] <kenthomson> tealson, i think in all my naive ideas that you have got bad memory modules, try running memtest overnight, and see if it gives any errors. maybe you need to change the memory RAM.
[01:40] <DJAdmiral> kenthomson: You could buy Crossover Linux.
[01:40] <idefix> Why doesn't mozilla 1.5.0.9 but does 1.7.13 display images in a certain website?
[01:40] <kenthomson> Toma-, so i am stuck with a absolutely fabulous video that wants to be streaky only in ubuntu????? :(
[01:41] <kenthomson> DJAdmiral, i live on the streets.
[01:41] <jo__> Toma-: ups, so pastebin, he? im back, never used this xchat-thing, always used google since one yer  for trouble-shooting
[01:41] <tealson> kenthomson: : i don't think so, the memory is fine, i hade feisty 4 installed on the box for a few days but with 6.10 and a complete new partition layout hell broke loose :(
[01:41] <AnAnt> what is the file for locale configuration ?
[01:41] <DJAdmiral> kenthomson: Or you could obtain it for free legally. I did.
[01:41] <Toma-> kenthomson: you can ignore it and do your processing, or convert it to ogg and cross your fingers
[01:41] <zleap> back
[01:41] <DJAdmiral> kenthomson: Mind you, I said legally.
[01:41] <Toma-> !pastebin > jo__
[01:41] <Pici> infidel: I dont think that it would be an issue.

[01:42] <kenthomson> Toma-, how do i convert a .avi --> .ogg
[01:43] <jo__> kenthomson: mencoder
[01:43] <DJAdmiral> kenthomson: That's what I thought of Codeweavers once, but they're actually pretty decent. They give a lot of money to the WINE project, y'know.
[01:43] <infidel> Pici, ok thanks for your advice
[01:43] <jo__> kenthomson: man mencoder
[01:43] <Toma-> kenthomson: something like ffmpeg -i yourfile.avi -o yourogg.ogg

[01:46] <kenthomson> bye and thanks (i got that link)
[01:47] <DJAdmiral> pitagoricus: No, nothing of that sort.
[01:47] <mjr> pitagoricus, some permission data will be lost, and afaik ntfs supports some funky "files inside files" stuff that isn't used much but could theoretically result in some data being lost
[01:47] <student22m> hiya :) i have a sort of simple question i guess, i just wanted to restart the X server, is there anyway without rebooting? :) thx in advance
[01:47] <niskin> is there a way (link) to download Automatix - ?
[01:47] <Pici> !automatix | niskin
[01:47] <Hobbsee> !automatix | niskin
[01:47] <ubotu> niskin: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[01:47] <pitagoricus> mjr how can i check if i have these files inside files?
[01:47] <DJAdmiral> niskin: Avoid automatix unless it's your last resort.
[01:47] <Toma-> jo__: youre trying to play a video from a USB device?

[01:53] <pitagoricus> DJAdmiral, mjr... how should i chmod my files to be able to access them in the future even after system crash? if the user (owner) does not exist anymore will i be able to open my files?
[01:53] <Toma-> jo__: just a sec
[01:53] <DJAdmiral> pitagoricus: with root, you can access any file. No worries.
[01:54] <Pici> You mean sudo
[01:54] <clust> my integrated bluetooth device is not detected by " hcitool dev" command. Can anybody help how to find the problems core?

[01:55] <__bmgz__> I can't get openbsd in qemu running on edgy, It keeps hanging at rootdev=0x1100... anybody else had this problem?
[01:55] <Toma-> ok, jo__ ... try 'echo "1024" | sudo tee /proc/sys/dev/rtc/max-user-freq'
[01:55] <jo__> Toma-: i tried lots of stuff, now i m cionfused and need some inspiration, is it something with bad drivers, media-drivers or i'm i dealing with bad disk-io performance, actually i got ATA hdd wich is being handled as SATA, uff
[01:55] <DJAdmiral> niskin: You could preferably use /msg ubotu WorksForMe instead, :)
[01:55] <Toma-> jo__: im going to say it will be the disk io. have you got DMA on?
[01:56] <jo__> the responce was 1024
[01:56] <CheshireViking> is there any way i can check the ip address of a server i can connect to through Places, Network Server so that I can try and mount a server drive?
[01:56] <HymnToLife> CheshireViking, ping ?
[01:56] <jo__> Toma-: the responce was 1024
[01:56] <Toma-> jo__: also looks like its using a weird video out codec
[01:56] <Toma-> jo__: super.
[01:56] <Toma-> jo__: try again
[01:57] <Toma-> (playing the video)
[01:57] <zleap> does anyone know where I can get some counter top,  cd holders
[01:57] <zleap> for ubuntu cd's
[01:57] <CheshireViking> HymnToLife, what do I ping though?
[01:57] <jo__> Toma-: dma is aproblem: hdparm does not apply changes to sda drives, when i do hdparm -I /dev/sda/ i get info stating that udma5 is on
[01:58] <Toma-> CheshireViking: the servers ip
[01:58] <swanfl> is there any repository for gthumb 2.8.1?
[01:58] <Pici> CheshireViking: You might try looking for a netbios or wins resolution program, I'm pretty sure that theres something on the repositories
[01:58] <CheshireViking> Toma-, its the servers ip I'm trying to find out
[01:58] <zleap> nslookup, dig
[01:58] <zleap> don't they come back with ip addresses
[01:59] <jo__> Toma-: what should i try again? echo..?
[01:59] <Toma-> jo__: try watching the video
[01:59] <zaydana> how would I find the version of apache I've got installed, using apt on the commandline?
[01:59] <jo__> ok
[01:59] <Pici> swanfl: no, the repos dont have that version
[01:59] <Toma-> zaydana: apt-cache show httpd
[01:59] <zaydana> ta
[01:59] <zleap> you can  type apache  -v
[01:59] <zleap> on the command line to get version number
[02:00] <Toma-> actually im wrong...
[02:00] <zaydana> yeah... seems you can't just type apache -v either
[02:00] <swanfl> thanks Pici, but that's too bad because the author of gthumb has marked 2.7.x as obsolete
[02:00] <Toma-> its apache... not httpd :D
[02:00] <zaydana> oh, right
[02:00] <CheshireViking> looks like i've got the ip address & i can ping it, just need to work at mounting a drive now
[02:00] <zleap> so whats this then
[02:00] <zleap> psutton@duron1600:~$ apache -v
[02:00] <zleap> Server version: Apache/1.3.34 (Debian)
[02:00] <zleap> Server built:   Aug 16 2006 12:32:35
[02:00] <zleap> psutton@duron1600:~$
[02:00] <zaydana> hmm, only 2.0
[02:01] <zaydana> is there any easy way to get apache 2.2 installed?
[02:01] <swanfl> I should also like to point out that I've been tracking a major bug in OO and it doesn't even get fixed in feisty
[02:01] <zaydana> or would I need to go build source and all that?
[02:01] <merc> i always just visit some non-existant webpage, says cant be found, then apache version etc :)
[02:01] <swanfl> not trolling, merely providing feedback :)
[02:01] <swanfl> trnslation, just bitching :)
[02:02] <zleap> have you tried the irc channel, see if you can chat to someone directly
[02:02] <Hoxzer> HOw can I set global hotkeys for xmms?
[02:02] <Pici> zleap: ?
[02:02] <Toma-> zaydana: you can always "apt-get build-dep apache2" then use "checkinstall" to install it. thatll make life very easy if you want to compile from source
[02:02] <hak0> !xorg extensions

[02:02] <merc> i hope the next ubuntu release is greasy groundhog..
[02:02] <zaydana> Toma-: wouldn't that only give apache 2.0 tho?
[02:02] <merc> (what happens when they get to z anyway?)
[02:03] <hak0> !xorg problems
[02:03] <merc> oh wait, they dont go in order...they should!

[02:03] <Toma-> zaydana: no, build-dep will give you all the needed headers and junk to build your own version of apache2. you need to download the source tho
[02:03] <Toma-> jo__: damn.
[02:03] <zaydana> ah right, cool
[02:03] <damnation> I've got a question.  I cannot seem to be able to resize my HDD via partitionmagic or the 6.10 ubuntu installed partition manager or the installer partition manager

[02:13] <plex0r> toma-: sweet thanks
[02:13] <damnation> Umm, can you read PM's pici ?
[02:13] <merc> Ace2016: im guessing chdir is part of a package of command line tools..finding that package and installing it however, hasnt been fruitful for me in the past, oh, minute of searching :)
[02:13] <damnation> http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/6402/partitionzj3.jpg <-- this pic shows all my HDD space as being used - but im only using a small fraction of both ..
[02:14] <damnation> that could possibly be why.
[02:14] <opetznick> hi how i can print the contents of a gzip file?
[02:14] <kalorin> man gzip
[02:14] <Pici> damnation: Ah.. Do you have something like Lifeguard (a WD utility) installed that could be locking the disk?
[02:14] <damnation> um.. I have S.M.A.R.T.
[02:15] <damnation> on both drives
[02:15] <damnation> but the other's a WD disk too
[02:15] <damnation> and i run HDDHEALTH
[02:15] <slippyr4> can anyone help me? networkmanager applet does not list my wireless connection, only the wired. this means i cannot follow the WPA howto
[02:15] <kalorin> now just how smart is S.M.A.R.T.?
[02:15] <mackinac> o
[02:15] <mackinac> rly
[02:15] <damnation> generally fairly smart
[02:15] <damnation> google done a study on smart
[02:15] <kalorin> yeah I wonder if my drives to that?
[02:15] <damnation> it works out quite accurate
[02:15] <kalorin> ok laters... dad taxi -> work
[02:15] <damnation> but it cant be guessed on single drives
[02:15] <merc> Ace2016: uhm, you sure you are using the tool you want to be using?
[02:16] <merc> Ace2016: git appears to be a filemanager, and you're trying to check stuff out...the text refers to a content tracker etc...
[02:16] <Pici> damnation: I did some looking around and it seems like other WD owners have had similar issues re-partitioning their disks.
[02:16] <damnation> Arh crap.
[02:17] <oggybuntu> damit how do I get istanbul to quit
[02:17] <oggybuntu> arrg
[02:17] <damnation> thanks, i didnt mean for you to look around though
[02:17] <Ace2016> merc: maybe the concent tracker tool over the name git?
[02:17] <damnation> i'm greatful however
[02:17] <damnation> might be some sort of partitioning style
[02:17] <Pici> damnation: No problem, see if you can get the WD software again, maybe you can unlock it
[02:17] <damnation> okay, thanks
[02:17] <Pici> damnation: This is what I looked at : http://www.techspot.com/vb/all/windows/t-37583-Cant-use-Partition-Magic-on-WD-drive.html
[02:18] <merc> Ace2016: so, which one do you want to be using, the content tracker deal yeah?
[02:18] <damnation> tah :) (aussie for thanks)
[02:18] <Ace2016> the content tracker
[02:18] <merc> Ace2016: it appears you're using the file manager.

[02:19] <vanderek> hi, i try to activate the 3d acceleration of my ati video card, and i fail

[02:20] <Ace2016> woops
[02:21] <bobslaede> anybody know of a nfs something channel?
[02:21] <vanderek> i tried to install the proprietare driver from the ati page
[02:21] <merc> wasnt there some new app that came out that will figure out all the 3d driver junk for you?
[02:22] <vanderek> someone ready to help me a little?
[02:22] <bobslaede> get in line ;)
[02:23] <n2diy> next?
[02:24] <vanderek> first i removed the installed xorg-driver-fglrx and installed the following packages
[02:24] <vanderek> linux-headers-generic, build-essential, debconf, dh-make, fakeroot, gcc-3.4, libstdc++5, module-assistant
[02:25] <vanderek> then downloaded the ati-driver-installer

[02:26] <c0ntrol> I've created a .desktop and a .directory file to include some application into the gnome menu, but how do I add the new menu folder so it is loaded when the user logs in? How do i deal with the vfolder structure ?
[02:26] <vanderek> and after that xorg-driver-fglrx, fglrx-kernel-source
[02:26] <Ace2016> merc: i think that git was the wrong git, may have been the file manager, i think i needed the other one and i switched to it and i had to also cd into xserver and it worked
[02:27] <merc> yeah man..i told you it was the wrong one :P
[02:27] <merc> good stuff either way
[02:27] <vanderek> then i typed the followin:

[02:39] <jkeyes0> I'm having some trouble: my system locks up on startup, on the loading screen with the loading bar. I have rebooted to recovery mode and did a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and that didn't help. Anyone have any ideas?

[02:42] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[02:42] <Rayko> i have no sound from my left speaker, my right speaker IS working, after some reboots my left speaker gives an annoying, very high-tone beep! and my right still works good, same thing with my headphones! :O
[02:43] <flyinflash> someone chinese?
[02:43] <flyinflash> someone chinese?
[02:43] <Rayko> also when i adjust my volume from that speaker thingy in the lower right hand corner, it totally mutes and i can't turn it back on

[02:44] <queuetue> I've just installed a new copy of Ubuntu Edgy on a machine.  After the install, I added three drives to it that has an existing sw raid5 array on them.  The array did not "magically" appear like I expected it - what do I need to do to educate this new system about the old raid array?

[02:52] <michup>  and it says my direct rendering is okay but cedega fails in its tests for acceleration
[02:52] <queuetue> Do I need to assemble the raid again?  I'm really worried about destroying this set of disks...
[02:52] <damnation> Pici: the lifeguard program does nothing for me, it's just a setup for partitioning/ installing new disks =\

[03:12] <neo_> ty
[03:13] <robinlin1h> damnation: That's because the scheme says to use all the space available. Resizing can only be done when out of the system you're trying to resize.
[03:13] <damnation> what.. scheme?
[03:14] <damnation> the HDD is not being used to run anything, no OS or any software/ files atm
[03:14] <robinlin1h> damnation: The partition table, the one that determines what is where and how big it is
[03:14] <robinlin1h> hmm, then just format it and reinstall
[03:14] <robinlin1h> Hey. I installed a command-line Ubuntu system and i installed the ati driver (not fglrx, but the open-source one), but direct rendering is still No. Can anyone help me fix direct rendering?
[03:14] <damnation> well on the HDD in a windows explorer, it shows the disk has 191gb odd free
[03:14] <damnation> i can't afford to format =p
[03:14] <elkbuntu> robinlin1h, dont repeat so quickly please
[03:15] <damnation> robinlin1h: can you enlighten me on what you mean by scheme ?
[03:15] <FuZ3> Has anyone here with an NVIDIA card had there GDM break on them with a recent update?
[03:15] <robinlin1h> elkbuntu: Sorry
[03:15] <damnation> http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/6402/partitionzj3.jpg this is what it says
[03:15] <Rayko> hi all
[03:15] <robinlin1h> damnation: there is a thing that determines the size of the partitions. Even if it is not full, if the table says it uses all disk space, it will.
[03:15] <Rayko> i'm still having a problem with my sound
[03:16] <Rayko> and i followed through all the torubleshooting thingies
[03:16] <pantsula> disable it :-)
[03:16] <Rayko> can anyone please take some time to try and help me? :(
[03:16] <damnation> okay, any idea what thing that is? is there multiple things? er, programs i guess ?
[03:16] <omha> how can i get kernel 2.6.20+ on edgy?
[03:16] <robinlin1h> damnation: those are windows partitions!
[03:16] <damnation> yes, i am trying to resize to install ubuntu.
[03:17] <robinlin1h> damnation: You can't resize windows partitions
[03:17] <damnation> yes you can.
[03:17] <robinlin1h> Either delete em, or format >_<
[03:17] <robinlin1h> No, you can't
[03:17] <Rayko> nope
[03:17] <damnation> no..
[03:17] <Rayko> i tried it damnation
[03:17] <damnation> dude, i have two HDD's
[03:17] <AmaroqWolf> I'm making a change to my firefox's java plugin. I have a newer version of java than the one it's linked to, so I just rm'ed the link so I can make a link to the same file in the new java's plugin folder. Which do you recommend, a hard link or a symbolic link?
[03:17] <damnation> both are WD
[03:17] <elkbuntu> robinlin1h, i did a google search for 'direct rendering ubuntu ati' http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=332468
[03:17] <Rayko> i had to spend a week fixing my hard drive again
[03:17] <robinlin1h> elkbuntu: thanks :)
[03:17] <wompus-cat> u have to use Partition Magic or a program like that to resize ntfs partitions....but u have to do it thru windows i think
[03:17] <damnation> i can resize either partition on my old 120gig to any size
[03:17] <bobslaede> AmaroqWolf: symbolic
[03:18] <damnation> guys, listen
[03:18] <FuZ3> I have resized NTFS partitions before.
[03:18] <bobslaede> AmaroqWolf: thats what i got
[03:18] <elkbuntu> robinlin1h, no idea if that fixes it, but do the search yourself and you should find other leads
[03:18] <damnation> i'm _on_ windows
[03:18] <AmaroqWolf> bobslaede: okay, thank you
[03:18] <damnation> i'm _using_ partition magic 8
[03:18] <clever> wompus-cat: the partition magic program makes safety floppys
[03:18] <Rayko> that program sucks
[03:18] <Rayko> crashed my hard drive!
[03:18] <damnation> ugh
[03:18] <clever> which can be used to resize ntfs without installing
[03:18] <elkbuntu> !gparted
[03:18] <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
[03:18] <wompus-cat> i resized my ntfs partition yesterday...no problems
[03:18] <clever> Rayko: yeah it killed my ntfs root once also:P
[03:18] <wompus-cat> anyways
[03:18] <damnation> guys, listen to me, if you intend to help
[03:18] <wompus-cat> damnation what's wrong?
[03:19] <Rayko> yeah
[03:19] <Rayko> so hey
[03:19] <damnation> well my new WD hdd wont let me partition.
[03:19] <Rayko> can anyone help me with my sound problem??
[03:19] <wompus-cat> odd
[03:19] <bobslaede> i've got some issues with NFS, anybody into that kinky stuff?
[03:19] <Rayko> :(
[03:19] <wompus-cat> hmmm
[03:19] <damnation> says it's full on _ANY_ partition manager i use
[03:19] <Rayko> it's so annoying
[03:19] <damnation> but the other HDD i have which is NTFS too
[03:19] <HymnToLife> damnation, what happens when you try ?
[03:19] <PecisDarbs> Rayko: what sound problem?
[03:19] <damnation> it says no free space
[03:19] <damnation> and i can't edit the label either
[03:19] <damnation> http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/6402/partitionzj3.jpg
[03:19] <damnation> picture of the two HDD's
[03:19] <HymnToLife> that means there's already a partition on it then
[03:19] <damnation> the one saying there's no HDD space .. in actual fact i've only used about 25% - 30% of it
[03:20] <wompus-cat> ooo ouch
[03:20] <wompus-cat> i think u have MFT probs
[03:20] <damnation> what's MFT?
[03:20] <clever> master file table
[03:20] <damnation> oh./
[03:20] <clever> part of the ntfs filesystem
[03:20] <HymnToLife> that looks very much like corrupted partitions
[03:20] <damnation> maybe cause i have it installed as a vista test HDD
[03:20] <clever> winblows scandisk might find/fix it
[03:20] <wompus-cat> FAT uses mft too clever
[03:20] <damnation> NTFS
[03:20] <damnation> i'm on
[03:21] <clever> i thought fat called it the file alocation table:P
[03:21] <dv> hm the current ati drivers are 8.34.8
[03:21] <dv> the edgy ones are 8.28.8 however
[03:21] <wompus-cat> u can try using Fdisk from a bootable floppy and using 'fdisk /mft' i think it is
[03:21] <Rayko> well, at first when i installed ubuntu freshly, only my right speaker would work (didn't have this problem with windows)
[03:21] <Rayko> when i edited the volume all sound would just go away
[03:21] <Rayko> after some reboots, my left speaker will give a VERY LOUD and VERY HIGH-TONE continuous beep while the other one just works
[03:21] <Rayko> i have the same problem with my headphones
[03:21] <Rayko> reinstalled drivers through the howto's you get from using the !sound command here
[03:21] <hexidigital> i had to change the SMTP port my server listens on (because my ISP blocks port 25).. does anyone know how to change the listening port, other than /etc/services? i dont think i am able to receive mail now
[03:21] <dv> any chance of an upgrade in the reps?
[03:21] <Rayko> still same problems now
[03:21] <dv> or would I have to update it manually?
[03:21] <damnation> you'll notice on all the HDD partitions in the picture - that all of the filesystems are NTFS
[03:21] <wompus-cat> oh...i'm thinking of mbr lol
[03:21] <wompus-cat> why am i thinking of mbr?
[03:21] <wompus-cat> lol
[03:22] <clever> :P
[03:22] <damnation> :)
[03:22] <Rayko> beep in left speaker/earphone + lowering or heightening the volume makes everything quiet :(
[03:22] <clever> mbr isnt part of any certain filesystem i think
[03:22] <wompus-cat> anways....i think there's some curruption on ur disk
[03:22] <damnation> Both HDD's have MBRS that boot into windows ATM
[03:22] <clever> just a sector of boot code
[03:22] <Rayko> right one works normally though
[03:22] <damnation> well it's a new disk.
[03:22] <Rayko> so help anyone?
[03:22] <wompus-cat> u try scanning it with WD diagnostics
[03:22] <wompus-cat> that's weird
[03:22] <damnation> i have an option to delete both partitions on the HDD
[03:22] <damnation> but nothing to rename the label or change type size or anything of the partition bar delete/ format
[03:23] <Rayko> anyone help?
[03:23] <clever> dont realy need to rename/resize them you could just reformat them to a empty ntfs
[03:23] <damnation> actually, i just realised something.
[03:23] <clever> enless you want to make a single larger partition
[03:23] <damnation> hmm.
[03:23] <damnation> i right click and goto properties
[03:23] <Geronimo_> hello
[03:23] <Rayko> helppp??

[03:25] <elkbuntu> robinlinth, does the post not say it is taken from the wiki?
[03:25] <h1st0> Rayko: So ignore the mail thing and you only have a sound problem now?
[03:25] <yell0w> !universe
[03:25] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[03:25] <Rayko> mail thingy?
[03:25] <Rayko> yeah
[03:25] <h1st0> Rayko: have you checked out alsamixer and also which sound driver did you switch to?
[03:25] <Rayko> i have only a sound problem yes
[03:25] <Rayko> !sound
[03:25] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[03:26] <Rayko> i did those

[03:26] <AmaroqWolf> bobslaede: lol and the problem I was having still isn't fixed by the java upgrade.
[03:26] <h1st0> Rayko: Okay type alsamixer in a terminal and make sure that its not faded to the right or anything.  You also may want to adjust your levels down a bit if you are getting noise.
[03:27] <Rayko> problem is
[03:27] <h1st0> Rayko: the other thing to check is to make sure you have a set of working speakers like your headphones or soemthign and test with those.
[03:27] <Rayko> i'm getting NOTHING now i adjusted the volume
[03:27] <bobslaede> AmaroqWolf: i've had some problems with it myself... i just installed Internet Explorer insted, heh
[03:27] <Rayko> not even only sound in the right
[03:27] <Rayko> everything goes mute as soon as i change anything
[03:27] <Rayko> until i reboot
[03:27] <h1st0> Rayko: What type of sound card do you have?
[03:27] <ihavenoname>  hihi
[03:27] <nutterpc> damnit, I can't quite get 40MB/sec out of me lappy hdd, lol
[03:27] <Rayko> VIA high definition one onboard
[03:28] <AngryElf_> does anyone know how to make crtl+# select tabs in firefox?
[03:28] <Rayko> VT82xx it says when i do aplay -l in terminal
[03:28] <AngryElf_> ...like it's suppose to do?
[03:28] <AmaroqWolf> bobslaede: lol. There's this site where one of things you can do is edit certain parts of your profile with custom HTML. When I select this option, the contents of that box should dissapear and an editable textbox should appear in it's place so I can edit the html. But nothing happens when I try to open that. xD
[03:28] <h1st0> Rayko: do you still have the installation/ live cd?
[03:28] <Rayko> nope, no need for them either i could just install it from the internet
[03:28] <Rayko> so i searched for soundmax drivers for linux
[03:28] <Rayko> and the page said it worked with alsa
[03:29] <Rayko> so yeah
[03:29] <h1st0> Rayko: Yeah I was just wondering if you booted the live cd if your sound worked so we could trouble shoot a driver issue from what is currently installed.
[03:29] <h1st0> Rayko: But pretty much it should just work with that chipset.  Are you sure the hardware is good. i.e. do you have a windows partition you can boot to and test?
[03:30] <Rayko> i had windows installed just yesterday and removed it to install ubuntu
[03:30] <Rayko> it worked fine on windows
[03:30] <Rayko> i did nothing BUT listening to music rofl :p
[03:30] <bobslaede> AmaroqWolf: i probably cant help you
[03:30] <h1st0> Rayko: did it ever work in ubuntu like when you first installed?
[03:31] <Rayko> nope
[03:31] <Rayko> just right speaker
[03:31] <h1st0> Rayko: hrm....
[03:31] <Rayko> and like i said, after reboots, left speaker now beeps tremendously high-tone
[03:32] <billy> anyone with intel driver get beryl to work?
[03:32] <h1st0> Rayko: Yeah something is wierd there with your hardware.  Maybe an IRQ conflict or something goofy.  About the only thing I would check is booting to the live cd and see if you get similiar results.
[03:33] <h1st0> Rayko: ITs quite possible that the sound card just happened to go goofy when you switched os's.
[03:33] <Rayko> i'll try to find
[03:33] <h1st0> Rayko: if you just download the ubuntu desktop iso you can boot to it like a live cd.
[03:34] <DigitalNinja> Is there CD label art for Edgy?

[03:41] <pansen> and not only thunar. every time i start a programm with "fileaccess" it takes 2 minutes.

[03:42] <killown> how I send process "make" for other ttyX?
[03:44] <killown> how I do to send process "make" for other tty?
[03:46] <AmaroqWolf> pansen: running your slow programs from a terminal doesn't produce any errors in the terminal?
[03:46] <AngryElf_> is there a way to "tile" windows horizontally/vertically?
[03:46] <pansen> AmaroqWolf: no errors at all
[03:47] <hellmet> Does anyone have or know where I can find a driver for an old SiS 82C204 onboard VGA? Thanks.
[03:47] <AmaroqWolf> pansen: wierd. xD Maybe if the programs themselves generate logs of what's going on, those might prove helpful? I really have no idea how to help you, I'm just suggesting a couple of ideas that might help you diagnose the problem.
[03:47] <pansen> AmarokWolf: sudo thunar 1 sek and just thunar 2-3 minutes
[03:48] <Rayko> hi again all

[03:48] <Rayko> so help anyone?
[03:48] <Rayko> :(
[03:49] <AmaroqWolf> pansen: I have no idea why sudo before starting your program makes such a big difference in speed at which it is run. Maybe it has to do with some permissions or something for whatever group your programs run under.

 and what happens to be the problem ?
[03:52] <hellmet> GreyGhost: My main pc bombed two days back, and I've been struggling with this old comp.
 sorry ..theats all i knoew ..
[03:52] <Rayko> my sound is not working, when i first installed ubuntu my left speaker wouldn't work, now i rebooted it some times and now my left speaker has this high-tone beep and very loud!!! when i adjust my volume settings even the slightest bit my sound will go completely off!!!
[03:53] <Rayko> my headphones have the same problem
[03:53] <hellmet> GreyGhost: oh k..thanks

[03:53] <opetznick> hi! is there a filesize limit on cat? 2gb?
[03:53] <GreyGhost> hmm...thats really weid dude ..
[03:53] <JaccoH> opetznick you like to cat 2GB files? :)
[03:53] <Rayko> it worked before when i had windows though!!!
[03:53] <Rayko> so it's ubuntu-related
[03:54] <JaccoH> rayko ..i think its more general then that.. linux related..driver issue perhaps
[03:54] <opetznick> JaccoH: no i use a strange lvm snapshot script which does this
[03:54] <queuetue> opetznick: I doubt there is a fs limit on cat (it doesn't get read into ram) but if you are catting 2gb files, you are probably going about something the wrong way. :)
 tried this
[03:54] <h1st0> Rayko: perhaps searching the forums for you sound card.
[03:54] <GreyGhost> !sound  <Rayko>

[03:56] <GreyGhost> if thats so .. i'd guess his programs need admin access or something ... but cant say for sure... sudo only gives the program admin rights
[03:56] <IdleOne> hellmet, have you tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?

  ,u mean ur built in graphics are  not detected?
[04:01] <h1st0> Rayko: yes
[04:01] <h1st0> Rayko: just trying to figure out what chipset you have for your sound exactly so I can see if there is a better driver.

[04:04] <thianpa> Hi. I have a pinnacle tv tuner on my PC. Dapper is detecting the tv tuner ? How do i use it ?
[04:05] <thaytan> why does debuild tell me "Version number suggests Ubuntu changes, but Maintainer: does not have Ubuntu address" in feisty?
[04:05] <slippyr4> greyghost: i guess it's all setup. glxinfo says i'm using direct rendering and my renderer is mesa dri inter 945gm, so i guess it's good
[04:05] <thaytan> how on earth could that be useful?
 ,yes that means ur fine :)
[04:06] <thianpa> And also Does Dapper has a built in CD/Dvd writing tool ?
[04:07] <elpateras> hi
[04:07] <Toma-> thianpa: yeh, buts its kinda lame
[04:07] <h1st0> Rayko: turn off external amplifier in alsamixer and turn off the microphone see if that clears up the feedback.
[04:07] <Rayko> let's see
[04:08] <thianpa> Toma-:  Okhay.. Where is it anyway ?
[04:08] <Rayko> grr how do i open alsamixer again?
[04:08] <h1st0> Rayko: just alsamixer in a terminal
[04:08] <Rayko> i forgot lol
[04:08] <Rayko> ok
[04:08] <Toma-> thianpa: "burn to CD" i think... its in preferences IIRC
[04:08] <Pensacola> what image do I need to download for the new intel based macs?
[04:08] <h1st0> Rayko: other than that I would maybe make a post in the forums perhaps someone has had similiar issues with the same hardware.  I would post maybe what type of computer or motherboard you have if you know.
[04:08] <opetznick> someone in who uses a nice lvm snapshot backup script?
[04:08] <Rayko> h1st0 i see no external amplifier

[04:23] <nanothief> gordonjcp: i tried googling for message displayer linux but i got too many irrelevant hits. can you remember anything about the program that could help narrow the search. Or better search terms too?
[04:23] <MM2> Pici: thank you!

 ,cahnfe ur nic to something like kyle9 will u? and then use synaptic or apt-get
[04:23] <finalbeta> graulich: the linux filesystems write files to large empty places, so the files don't get fragmented. Windows writes it as much as possible to another, causing fragmentation.  So in nix you don't have to fragment. Which is better... I like the windows way, in theory it can function better if you have large drives small files and lots of space left and use idle time to clean up the mess.
[04:23] <Toma-> opetznick: on a vfat drive?
[04:23] <opetznick> how i can do this on a nice way?
[04:24] <apokryphos> MM2: all of that is covered in 3.9 on the FAQ
[04:24] <arn_> Pici, how to use that? i mean do i have to use like other man help? there is no listen of all available library functions?
[04:24] <graulich> thanks finalbeta
[04:24] <finalbeta> In practice most end up with to much fragmentation.
[04:24] <apokryphos> I promise that using it will only help you ;-)

[05:03] <ghetek> Pici: thanks!
[05:04] <tsoler> francois: bum doesnt do this
[05:04] <francois> tsoler: you just want to run a package at start up ?
[05:04] <benjoldersma> when i upgraded to feisty fawn, it wrote over my grub entries for my old ubuntu (on a different partition)
[05:04] <francois> tsoler: or a script ?
[05:04] <benjoldersma> anyone have any tips on how to get it back?
[05:04] <Pici> sayers: That just removes directories, not the files in them.  You'll want to do rm -rf /home/options

[05:04] <tsoler> is that a package or a script/

[05:05] <tsoler> ok
[05:05] <Pici> sayers: Yes, it is, but you need to delete its contents first, rmdir wont delete folder contents
[05:05] <sayers> pici : never mind thanks

Since I dont have internet connection at home, I wonder if its possible to use kubuntu dvd to upgrade my 6.06 then use -ubuntu- dvd to upgrade gnome ?
[05:05] <mmjurado> Princasita
[05:05] <francois> tsoler: i'm not sure, maybe ask someone else who's better than me at scripting :)
[05:06] <xyverz> athlon - why not just use apt-get dist-upgrade?
[05:06] <tsoler> my server is restarting all the time , and i need to run this script every time
[05:06] <xyverz> you can apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[05:06] <xyverz> which will install gnome

[05:07] <athlon> xyverz:  no internet connection

[05:07] <tsoler> francois: you mena with bum i can add only packages?
[05:07] <xyverz> you might be able to use the DVDs then.

[05:43] <grimsan> Hi guys, do i need to activate gbit somewhere in ubuntu? or should it get gbit automatically by default? anyone ?
[05:43] <Rayko> disasm: how?
[05:43] <Dr_willis> grimsan,  clarify - you mean the gigabit speed of your network card?
[05:44] <grimsan> yes gigabit speed of my network card
[05:44] <cntb> changed NIC how to re-detect it no eth0 no eth1 either it is a rtl8139 listed in lspci
[05:44] <Dr_willis> grimsan,  it 'should' auto detect
[05:44] <Anubi1> i installed GParted but i can;t resize the partition i am using what should i do ?
[05:44] <dyrne> grimsan: if you cat /etc/iftab  it does not show up?
[05:44] <Dr_willis> Anubi1,  use a live cd.. you dont normally resize the partitions you have mounted, or booted from
[05:44] <kurt> hi
[05:45] <charles> I need some help with beryl i just installed it and its working but wobbly windows will not move they stretch and skew yet remain fixed in place anyone know how to fix this?? (beryl works perfectly when i turn off this feature)
[05:45] <Rayko> disasm: how do i compile new kernel?
[05:45] <Anubi1> Dr_willis : so i connect with a live cd and then what ?
[05:45] <dyrne> Anubi1: you might want to burn the livecd for gparted you cant work on your part while its mounted as /
[05:45] <miranda82> hello
[05:45] <grimsan> dyrne what should be in that file?
[05:45] <grimsan> i just see some mac adresses
[05:45] <miranda82> is there any way, to make smaller the notification bubbles of kopete? they are huge here...
[05:45] <Dr_willis> Anubi1,  i normally use the gparted-live cd - it boots. then ya run gparted and do whatever it is you are tryign to do.
[05:45] <dyrne> grimsan: that assigns the device name to whatever mac is listed
[05:46] <kmu> i'm about to install ubuntu on a laptop. i haven't got the wireless card that i'm going to use yet. should i wait until i have it and have it plugged in before installing?
[05:46] <grimsan> dyrne ok , right mac adress on right connection
[05:47] <Anubi1> i have a live cd with ubuntu can;t i use that ?
[05:47] <dyrne> kmu: you should be able to hotswap so if it has out of the box support it should just work when you plug it in.  make sure you buy a well supported card itll save headaches
[05:47] <disasm> Rayko: go to kernel.org, get latest kernel, untar in /usr/src, symlink to /usr/src/linux,  apt-get install build-essential make-kpkg, cp /boot/config/config-`uname -r`; /usr/src/linux/.config; cd /usr/src/linux; make menuconfig   set config options, save, then make-kpkg --initrd kernel_image modules_image kernel_headers
[05:47] <Rayko> disasm; thanks i'll try
[05:47] <disasm> Rayko: probably don't need modules_image though unless you have an atheros wireless
[05:48] <Dr_willis> Anubi1,  if it has gparted or whatever on it.. yes
[05:48] <dyrne> grimsan: what is the device? eth0?
[05:48] <grimsan> yes
[05:48] <Anubi1> i don;t think it has that
[05:48] <grimsan> eth1 is disabled for now, thats my wireless
[05:48] <Dr_willis> Anubi1,  one way to find out for sure... boot it and see.
[05:48] <dyrne> grimsan: and sudo ifconfig eth0 up&&dhclient eth0      doesnt work?
[05:49] <Anubi1> can't i use partition magic from windows ?
[05:49] <dyrne> grimsan: if not is cable good? lights on back of nic?
[05:50] <grimsan> it works dyrne, dunno what it does tho
[05:50] <dyrne> Anubi1: im pretty sure livecd has it if not you can install it from livecd to use just like you did in your desktop install
[05:50] <kmu> dyrne: thanks :)
[05:50] <mindstate> im trying to install gaim from source ..and i get this checking for XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool.. any help?
[05:51] <Anubi1> if i install it from live cd i won;t be able to use it
[05:51] <Dr_willis> Anubi1,  it installs to the ram disk OF the livecd.
[05:51] <Dr_willis> Anubi1,  boot live cd, install it.. use it.. reboot.. (its gone then of course)
[05:52] <mindstate> or is there a way i can upgrade gaim without reinstalling?
[05:52] <Anubi1> k
[05:52] <Anubi1> 10x
[05:52] <dyrne> grimsan: ifconfig by itself will list all devices that are up.  the dhclient command says try to acquire an ipaddress for this device dhclient eth0.  do this gksudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces   that file should have a line that says auto eth0  so that eth0 is connected at startup
[05:52] <snowpunk98> Can anyone tell me how to transfer a directory from my Edgy desktop to my Edgy server?
[05:53] <grimsan> dyrne, i have an ipadress

[05:54] <Wulfie> hey folks - using firefox in my 64 bit ubuntu install - it keeps eating up 100% of my cpu - any recommendations for fixing that?  How hard would it be to go with a 32 bit firefox?
[05:54] <grimsan> is there a way to FORCE 1gbit to the card?
[05:55] <dyrne> grimsan: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=277807 might help i dont have any exp with gigabit connectors
[05:55] <grimsan> ok man, thx alot for the help, sorry i wasnt more clear about the problem :/
[05:56] <skywalker> hello
[05:56] <dyrne> grimsan: good luck
[05:56] <Dr_willis> grimsan,  check the LEDS on the cards/switch
[05:57] <Dr_willis> try different ports also.. its possible a cable/conector aint in all the way

[05:58] <Cosine> good morning everyone
[05:58] <Cosine> I have a quick question
[05:59] <RxDx> tava lendo o frum e vi um post sobre o openSUSE.. porque o pessoal nao gosta de RPM?
[05:59] <Dr_willis> I forget the command that gives you more detailed network information.. not  ifconfig.. some other comand
[05:59] <Dr_willis> !es
[05:59] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[05:59] <Dr_willis> !rpm
[05:59] <ubotu> RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu does not use RPM, but !APT, and RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[05:59] <Cosine> I have installed GPROFTPD and try to run it but it says I have to be root to run...how do I change my login to root so it will allow me?
[06:00] <Xif> what's a very beautiful Gnome theme for Ubuntu?
[06:00] <Dr_willis> Cosine,  in short.. you dont.. use 'sudo' to run the command
[06:00] <Cosine> hum
[06:01] <Cosine> the command to run it would be sudo GPROFTPD?
[06:01] <vpol> hi all. i've disabled onboard audio in bios, and connected usb audigy2 nx. aplay -l shows it is card #1. what should i do to make it working as card #0?
[06:01] <Rayko> disasm: you there?
[06:01] <Cosine> of coarse in console
[06:02] <Cosine> dr: is that how I would run it?
[06:03] <snowpunk98> Can anyone tell me how to move a directory on my desktop to ubuntu server
[06:03] <v1rtualcowboy> i made my server read from my desktop
[06:03] <v1rtualcowboy> idk
[06:03] <Rayko> can anyone help me on updating my kernel?????
[06:04] <Rayko> please
[06:04] <v1rtualcowboy> idk that either
[06:04] <v1rtualcowboy> sry
[06:04] <Dr_willis> Rayko,  #1 - why do you need to mess with the kernel?
[06:04] <Rayko> anyone then please?
[06:04] <preaction> snowpunk98: you mean between two different computers? try using scp
[06:05] <Dr_willis> Cosine,  sudo whatever-the-command-is
[06:05] <Noshar> #exploits :/
[06:05] <Cosine> hum
[06:05] <Rayko> dr_willis: disasm told me to try updating my kernel before i update to the latest sound drivers to fix my sound problem on http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2215610#post2215610
[06:05] <Dr_willis> Cosine,  i dont use ftp servers.. ssh has basicially replaced them for most peoples needs
[06:05] <Dr_willis> Rayko,  you sure he dident mean use the prebuilt kernels?
[06:05] <Cosine> ok, but Im not sure of the command as it is in the ubuntu menu now
[06:06] <Rayko> de_willis: he gave me this: (05:47:27 PM) disasm: Rayko: go to kernel.org, get latest kernel, untar in /usr/src, symlink to /usr/src/linux,  apt-get install build-essential make-kpkg, cp /boot/config/config-`uname -r`; /usr/src/linux/.config; cd /usr/src/linux; make menuconfig   set config options, save, then make-kpkg --initrd kernel_image modules_image kernel_headers
[06:06] <Stormx2> Cosine: What do you need to do?
[06:06] <Gigi> Hi! I just installed Ubuntu 6.10, but with synaptics I can find packages such gtkpod, amule, wine or vlc... may someone helpme?
[06:06] <Rayko> dr_willis: but i got no idea how to do that
[06:06] <Dr_willis> Cosine,  drag the icon to the panel, right click on it/properties and see what its running
[06:06] <apokryphos> Gigi: take a look at the FAQ <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions> as linked to in the channel /topic
[06:06] <Dr_willis> Cosine,  its odd that a ftp server would put an icon uin the menus
[06:06] <Cosine> trying to run GPROFTPD
[06:06] <Cosine> I know but its there
[06:06] <Stormx2> Gigi: Is that a problem?
[06:06] <Gigi> stormx2 I mean.  I dont find them
[06:06] <Rayko> Dr_willis: please go look at http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2215610#post2215610 and tell me if you can help, read both posts
[06:07] <Dr_willis> Rayko,  are you actually USING the command --->  "  sudo ./configure --with-kernel=/usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r) --with-cards=<enter driver name here e.g. via82xx> --with-oss=yes "
[06:07] <Gigi> Why when I mimimice, I dont see it in the bar?
[06:07] <Xif> does anyone know how I can disable liferea from asking that annoying question each time I add a subscription?
[06:07] <Dr_willis> You have replaced <enter driver name> with the right driver name havent you?
[06:07] <Cosine> that it guys, thanks
[06:08] <Gigi> got it
[06:08] <Gigi> I had to add it lol
[06:08] <Rayko> DR_willis: yes, with <enter driver name here e.g. via82xx> replaced to VT82xx
[06:08] <markk> Hi guys, I need some help, I describe my problem here: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=370829
[06:08] <bigjohntoday> how do I resolve "/bin/sh: Can't access tty; job control turned off" I have googled the life out of it and can not find an answer
[06:09] <christopherl> someone know if there is a Playstation 3 gamepad for PC? or other Bluetooth gamepad for PC?
[06:09] <Dr_willis> Rayko,  i would guess that either VT82xx  is the incorrect driver name. or it dosent have support for that card.
[06:09] <preaction> christopherl: i know some people have gotten Wii controllers to work on their PC and Mac, dunno about linux drivers
[06:09] <christopherl> ok
[06:09] <Rayko> Dr_willis: read the thread completely
[06:10] <preaction> snowpunk98: IRC custom is to ask before private messaging. your question/problem would be better served if everyone could see it
[06:10] <Dr_willis> its only 2 paragraphs.. i looked at it..    checking for which soundcards to compile driver for... configure: error: Unknown soundcard VT82xx -- thats telling me that vt82xx is not a proper drivername.
[06:10] <snowpunk98> preaction, sorry, I dont know how to use that command
[06:10] <preaction> christopherl: i do believe that some portion won't work because it doesn't have the IR bar (i dunno if that's the point-click interface)
[06:11] <preaction> snowpunk98: man scp
[06:11] <Dr_willis> Rayko,  that may be what your command is 'saying' it is.. but that may not be the proper name for the driver
[06:11] <CreepyCrawly> sftp :)
[06:11] <snowpunk98> preaction, I did but still dont know the syntax :(
[06:11] <Rayko> Dr_willis:...help plz? :(
[06:11] <preaction> snowpunk98: scp host1:file1 host2:file2
[06:11] <CreepyCrawly> snowpunk98, try sftp
[06:11] <CreepyCrawly> sftp user@host
[06:11] <preaction> CreepyCrawly: that requires you set up an FTP server on one or the other box
[06:12] <Dr_willis> Rayko,  i dont have ESP. thats what it Looks like the error message is saying to me.. Vt82xx is not the 'proper' name  for the driver to build.
[06:12] <Rayko> Dr_willis: damn :(
[06:12] <Dr_willis> the driver source may have docs as to what cards use what 'names'
[06:13] <CreepyCrawly> preaction, no
[06:13] <CreepyCrawly> it doesnt need an ftp server
[06:13] <Dr_willis> Rayko,  are tiy usibg vt82xx  or  via82xx  as the drivername?
[06:14] <Rayko> Dr_willis: i tried both
[06:14] <Dr_willis> Rayko,  perhaps dont tell it any name.. so it makes them all. :)
[06:14] <snowpunk98> preaction, it says it is not a regular file
[06:14] <markk> Is anyone prepared to assist me? I'm not familiar with irc protocol.
[06:14] <snowpunk98> preaction, I am trying to move a directory
[06:14] <preaction> snowpunk98: then man scp would tell you to use the -r switch
[06:15] <preaction> CreepyCrawly: so it's an FTP-like program that uses SSH as a transfer agent
[06:15] <RxDx> automatix
[06:15] <rogue780> is there a way to make apt-get reinstall a program?
[06:15] <RxDx> !automatix
[06:15] <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
[06:15] <rogue780> hi
[06:15] <Rayko> Dr_willis: i'll try

[06:16] <snowpunk98> preaction, sudo scp blacklists -r user@host:/etc/dansguardian/lists/blacklists that is not the correct location for the -r?
[06:16] <Alzi2> Can anyone please recommend me any lightweight programs? The programs i need: Music player, lightweight browser, IM client, word processor, text editor, video player, the rest i'll tell if i need em
[06:17] <preaction> snowpunk98: the manpage would tell you all this. it even has the correct location of all the options
[06:17] <RxDx> !cedega
[06:17] <ubotu> cedega is a project based on WINE, aimed at running Windows games on Linux. For more info, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cedega
[06:18] <preaction> Alzi2: what do you mean by lightweight? xmms, firefox, gaim, abiword, gedit, xine or vlc
[06:18] <preaction> Alzi2: but if you want truly lightweight text editor, go with pico or nano
[06:18] <snowpunk98> OK well apparently I am not experienced enough to use the correct syntax so would anyone be able to actually help rather than point me to the man page?
[06:19] <Alzi2> preaction: is gaim lightweight? wants to install all sorts of GNOME stuff
[06:19] <markk> i need help setting up my grub loader, I can only boot with LiveCD
[06:20] <bigjohntoday> no answers for my qusetion?
[06:20] <preaction> snowpunk98: From The Man Page: scp [-1246BCEpqrv]  [[user@] host1:] file1 [...]  [[user@] host2:] file2 <-- looks to me like that's where those options go. looks to me like "r" is in there. looks to me that scp -r directory host:directory would be the correct answer. learning how to read man pages means not having to deal with arseholes like me
[06:21] <snowpunk98> heh
[06:21] <charles> i cant seem to get 1650x1050 to work on my 22" widescreen monitor 1280x800 seems to work just fine though how do i fix this?
[06:21] <preaction> Alzi2: lightest-weight IM client you'll find for the features. though maybe setting up a bitlbee server would work? you didn't ansewr my question about Why lightweight?
[06:21] <bezibaerchen> snowpunk98: do "scp -r blacklists", NOT "scp blacklicks -r"
[06:22] <bezibaerchen> then it should work
[06:22] <ldng> has anyone tried to run postfix in a debootstrap environment ? It seems to write its log outside the jail. Weird.
[06:22] <Alzi2> preaction: Show me the question again
[06:22] <snowpunk98> permission denied lol
[06:22] <preaction> Alzi2: i lied, i didn't ask why, i asked what you meant by lightweight
[06:22] <bigjohntoday>  how do I resolve "/bin/sh: Can't access tty; job control turned off" I have googled the life out of it and can not find an answer. This happens on a fresh new install, the system has a matrox g550 PCIE card with 1 gig ram (ran memory check it is fine) intel core duo tech (6300) an LG dvd rom and a SATA 250 GB drive (I have even tried removing the SATA 250 GB drive and used an 80GB IDE drive but I still get that error) that error
[06:23] <omha> how can i see what CPU i'm having?
[06:23] <CreepyCrawly> cat /proc/cpuinfo
[06:23] <omha> thx
[06:23] <CreepyCrawly> welcome
[06:23] <preaction> snowpunk98: that means that the user you're connecting to the remote host doesn't have write permissions to that folder. you can either try logging on as a different user (user@host:file) or ssh user@host and then chmod ugo+w file
[06:24] <preaction> snowpunk98: i'm going to be brutally honest and say that this is basic linux systems administration stuff, and a tutorial and/or a book would serve you far better than an IRC channel
[06:24] <markk> CreepCrawly: can you help me?
[06:24] <bingodeville> list
[06:25] <bingodeville> names
[06:25] <markk> "/list"
[06:25] <CreepyCrawly> markk,  ?
[06:25] <snowpunk98> preaction, well I know why its permission denied since the user I am connecting with is not a root user and would need sudo
[06:25] <Rayko> dr_willis: heeelp when i adjust my volume everything goes silent again
[06:26] <Rayko> dr_willis: it's all quiet again now
[06:26] <preaction> snowpunk98: better idea to modify the permissions instead of just using sudo to bypass them
[06:26] <CreepyCrawly> preaction, whats his prob
[06:26] <snowpunk98> preaction, So chmod 777 ?
[06:26] <CreepyCrawly> snowpunk98,  no
[06:26] <preaction> snowpunk98: god no
[06:26] <CreepyCrawly> chmod 700 i prefere
[06:26] <dario> hey
[06:27] <CreepyCrawly> heh
[06:27] <superbia> Hi, is there any smooth way to change from utf8 to 8859-15?
[06:27] <snowpunk98> lol
[06:27] <preaction> snowpunk98: actually, it would be far FAR better to have your user be the owner of that directory. OR chmod ugo+w
[06:27] <superbia> I been checking the forum and still nothing of what I found has worked
[06:27] <dario> is this the place to chat about amule adunanza?
[06:27] <preaction> snowpunk98: why is the directory owned by root anyway? is there a good reason for it?
[06:27] <CreepyCrawly> or chown -R user.group <dir>

[06:27] <Rayko> brb now
[06:28] <snowpunk98> I am trying to setup dansguardian on the server and I need to move over the blacklists
[06:28] <bigjohntoday> ok so one last time is anyone capable of helping me or not?
[06:28] <Yodude> can someone please help me setting up MultiGet download manager with Flashgot? it dos accept command line arguments
[06:28] <preaction> snowpunk98: so ssh to that box, sudo chown -R <username> <directory>
[06:28] <preaction> snowpunk98: oh, wait, no, do not do that
[06:28] <CreepyCrawly> bigjohntoday, whats up
[06:28] <bigjohntoday>  how do I resolve "/bin/sh: Can't access tty; job control turned off" I have googled the life out of it and can not find an answer. This happens on a fresh new install, the system has a matrox g550 PCIE card with 1 gig ram (ran memory check it is fine) intel core duo tech (6300) an LG dvd rom and a SATA 250 GB drive (I have even tried removing the SATA 250 GB drive and used an 80GB IDE drive but I still get that error) that error
[06:28] <preaction> snowpunk98: move the files to your user's home directory first, then login to the box and move them using sudo
[06:28] <kane77> I am printing some pdf's that have monospace fonts, but on the printed version each letter of the monospace font is chopped off... is it the printer issue or what could it be??
[06:28] <majd> how do i launch the gnome terminal instead of the xterm?
[06:28] <snowpunk98> preaction, good idea lemme try that
[06:29] <Dr_willis> majd,  launch it where?
[06:29] <Dr_willis> gnome-terminal
[06:29] <preaction> snowpunk98: i assume those blacklists need to be in an /etc/ directory, and those should be owned by the user running the program (in your case, probably root runs dansguardian)
[06:29] <Yodude> does anybody here know MultiGet download manager?
[06:30] <majd> Dr_willis, from terminal (i'm creating a launch on the desktop)
[06:30] <snowpunk98> preaction, I believe I setup dansguardian to be the user
[06:30] <Dr_willis> majd,  the command is 'gnome-terminal' :)
[06:30] <CreepyCrawly> bigjohntoday, cant help ya
[06:30] <bigjohntoday> i c
[06:30] <Yodude> can someone please help me setting up MultiGet download manager with Flashgot? it dos accept command line arguments
[06:30] <RickSeymour> Bootup hangs at Networking, how can i see whats going on?
[06:31] <RickSeymour> (have eth0 - via rhine and ppp0 thats initialised speedtch)
[06:31] <preaction> snowpunk98: so dansguardian should have the permissions to write to that directory, no? does the user have a login? you could scp with that user: scp -r blacklists dansguardian@host2:/etc/dansguardian/blacklists (or whatevz)
[06:31] <slippyr4> having now got my system fully set up and all hardware working, and having played with beryl, what else is cool to install?

[06:32] <Anubi1> i am connected to the internet with pppoeconf can someone tell me how to find out the password and username ?

[06:33] <cntb> changed NIC how to re-detect it no eth0 no eth1 either it is a rtl8139 listed in lspci
[06:33] <mr_grump5> i need help playing divx cd's..i installed all the plugins required...but some cd's doesn't play..it says "cannot open location.you don't have permission to open the file"
[06:33] <preaction> snowpunk98: the idea is to perform as many operations as you can with the least amount of permission possible, so that if things go horribly wrong (and they will, murphy's law), they go as unhorribly wrong as possible
[06:33] <dario> hey i have a problem with ubuntu + amule does anyone know where i can ask?

[06:36] <jsizzle> greetings, anyone running feisty fawn? that could answer some questions like how buggy is it? it has a package (kooldock) that I want, right now I have to run the debian .deb because it refuses to compile from source but fiesty has it so i was thinking of upgrading
[06:36] <Dr_willis> kane77,  chopped off where?
[06:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about multiget - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:36] <Dr_willis> jsizzle,  id wait for the fawn to get grown up.
[06:37] <ubotu> yodude: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:37] <snowpunk98> OK I give up for the time being I have the directory in place but get errors thanks for the help
[06:37] <preaction> Yodude: though i'm hesitant to say that having trouble setting up a download manager for your pr0n is a big problem
[06:37] <kane77> Dr_willis, each letter is not printed entirely, there's like 3/4 missing (from the right side) this happens only on monospace fonts...
[06:37] <slippyr4> are there any gnome based irc clients that are a bit better that the irc bit of gaim? in particular i'd like to highlight messages with my nick in.
[06:37] <Dr_willis> slippyr4,  xchat
[06:37] <mr_grump5> could anyone help me?
[06:37] <bezibaerchen> slippyr4: try xchat
[06:37] <Dr_willis> slippyr4,  NOT xchat-gnome :) it suck.. heh
[06:37] <Alzi2> Please, can anyone help me solve this problem?: In the tty's, when i, for example, do an mplayer with -vo aa, it gets really screwy. Same thing when starting an ncurses program. Can anyone help me fix this? Also, i need help with my .Xresources problem
[06:37] <Yodude> preaction: i have a really bad internet connection and i used to keep up with it by using DAP on windows, i used it with flashgot, now using MultiGet for loinux i can't integrate it with flashgot!
[06:37] <IdleOne> slippyr4, install xchat
[06:37] <bezibaerchen> <-- prefers irssi ;-)
[06:37] <Dr_willis> kane77,  now that is odd....
[06:38] <slippyr4> bezibaerchen: isn't irssi text based?
[06:38] <jsizzle> Dr_willis: well before I switched to ubuntu I used to run debian unstable, so I can deal with some bugs no prob. I really like kooldock but it's forcing me to uninstall it and re-install if I want to do dist-upgrade. with the broken deps and alll
[06:38] <Yodude> preaction: it's a very critical problem because my connection is only 7KBites per second down you see
[06:38] <preaction> Yodude: you have more options than you think. what keeps your connection up?
[06:38] <bezibaerchen> slippyr4: it is. running on one of my servers which is hosted and 24/7 connected, so i can chat from everywhere
[06:38] <Yodude> preaction: it does accept command line arguments btw but i don't know how to enter them in
[06:38] <Yodude> ( in flashgot i mean)
[06:38] <Dr_willis> jsizzle,  go check in #ubuntu+1 -  i perfer to wait a week or 2 after the new releases come out.. to update to them. :)
[06:39] <Yodude> preaction: a handy Download manager with a good interface maybe?
[06:39] <preaction> Yodude: to be honest, a flashgot forum would be far better than an ubuntu IRC channel
[06:39] <Yodude> :)
[06:39] <kane77> Dr_willis, and it sucks as I'm trying to print a e-book with a lot of sourcecodes... :D
[06:39] <Yodude> there is on?
[06:39] <preaction> Yodude: but what specifically about your download manager keeps your connection up?
[06:39] <Yodude> i didn't find one
[06:39] <Yodude> i'll see thnkx
[06:39] <Dr_willis> kane77,  Hmm what you printing them with anyway? acrobat reader?
[06:39] <preaction> Yodude: google is your friend
[06:39] <Yodude> it has faster downloads
[06:39] <Yodude> thnkx anyway
[06:39] <CreepyCrawly> lol @ preaction
[06:39] <Yodude> i'll bb if i need more help c u
[06:39] <kane77> Dr_willis, I tried gpdf and xpdf and evince... but the result is the same..
[06:40] <kane77> Dr_willis, i'm downloading acrobat...
[06:40] <jsizzle> ok, well what about backports, is anyone backporting fawn packages to edgy?
[06:40] <Dr_willis> kane77,  yea. thats my advice see what it does.. it could be some font specific/printer issue.
[06:40] <preaction> okay, so there are download managers that magically increase a user's dialup speed
[06:40] <mxpxpod> I have mysql-server-5.0 installed, but there are no rows in the mysql.time_zone table... can someone else with mysql-server-5.0 check this?
[06:40] <preaction> if i didn't see it, it's news to me!
[06:40] <CreepyCrawly> 56k is a 56k in the end
[06:41] <Dr_willis> jsizzle,  i imagine once fawn comes out - there will be some backports. :) but since its not out at this time
[06:41] <kane77> Dr_willis, how can I compile from repositories (I have some repos with sources)?
[06:41] <Dr_willis> kane77,  thats somthing ive only done like once.. ages ago.
[06:41] <slippyr4> thanks guys, now running xchat
[06:41] <Dr_willis> !source
[06:41] <ubotu> You can easily fetch a package's source with apt-get. See: http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-sourcehandling.en.html
[06:41] <preaction> which is about 7kB/s
[06:41] <CreepyCrawly> w0w
[06:41] <dyrne> kane77: i think its like apt-get -b source packagename
[06:41] <jsizzle> shitty, I guess I'm F'd since I can't get kooldock to compile from source
[06:41] <slippyr4> can someone say my name please
[06:41] <kane77> dyrne, thanx
[06:42] <IdleOne> slippyr4,
[06:42] <CreepyCrawly> slippyr4
[06:42] <jsizzle> debian for me seemed easier to compile source on imho
[06:42] <Dr_willis> jsizzle,  figure out why it wont compile. :)
[06:42] <slippyr4> nice. thanks. all in red
[06:42] <Dr_willis> !info kooldock
[06:42] <ubotu> kooldock: Dock for KDE with cool visual enhancements. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.3-1ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 521 kB, installed size 964 kB
[06:42] <Dr_willis> sounds like useless eye candy to me. :)
[06:42] <mr_grump5> could any one help me??when i try play divx cd it says "can't open location you don't have permisiion to open the file"
[06:42] <CreepyCrawly> mr_grump5,  check file perms
[06:42] <Dr_willis> divx cd? ya mean a divx file on a cd?
[06:42] <CreepyCrawly> mr_grump5,  where is the file located
[06:42] <jsizzle> Dr_willis: yeah, well I like it.
[06:43] <dyrne> kane77: itll likely complain about dev packages youll need to install
[06:43] <preaction> Dr_willis: useless eye candy makes windows users say "that's purdy, where'd you get that?" and you say "linux" and they say "0mgz 3y3 w4nt 2 b 1337!!!!!1one"
[06:43] <mr_grump5> CreepyCrawly:cdrom0
[06:43] <CreepyCrawly> lol
[06:43] <kane77> dyrne, and what's the difference between -c (compile) and -b (build)?
[06:43] <Dr_willis> jsizzle,  you are willingng to tolerate a unstable system just to have a fancy 'launcher' :) thats... scary...   go for fiesty if ya are brave.
[06:43] <mr_grump5> CreepyCrawly:some divs cd's works like charm but others desn't!!
[06:44] <Dr_willis> jsizzle,  or try feisty in a vmware session
[06:44] <dyrne> kane77: got me :) ive only done it a few times. used -b each time
[06:44] <bigjohntoday> hey here is a question what is the difference between fiesty herd 1 and fiesty herd 4?

[06:45] <pi_> someone knows pureftpd?
[06:46] <kane77> does evince or g/x pdf have something like firefox plugin?

[07:07] <Anubi1> how can i find out the username and password from a internet connection using pppoeconf ?
[07:07] <leon24> Anubi1: i've also googled for some time and it seems to be a common bug in ubuntu
[07:07] <CreepyCrawly> Lynx-, check it
[07:07] <ray_> ahave: you can also use ps aux | grep processname
[07:07] <Anubi1> so it is not possible ?
[07:07] <ray_> petemc: any suggestions?
[07:07] <leon24> ray_: not configured to listen on any interfacs! <- diese fehlermeldung bekomme ich bei dhcp3-server
[07:07] <ahave> ray_, openoffice has crashed... how to kill?

[07:08] <ray_> find the pid and then kill the pid number
[07:08] <petemc> ray_: what version of ndiswarapper are you running?
[07:08] <leon24> petemc: i need help with my network..........i am trying to access the internet through my mac (shared internet) it works with windows and not with dapper...
[07:08] <ray_> petemc: 1.8
[07:09] <ahave> is there a way to search the ps aux outputs?
[07:09] <ahave> so many...
[07:09] <CreepyCrawly> leonel, dhclient
[07:09] <ray_> ahave:  with grep
[07:09] <ahave> ok
[07:09] <petemc> ray_: ive not encountered that problem myself, tried purging annd reinstalling it?
[07:09] <ray_> petemc: nope, I'll give it a shot
[07:09] <ray_> petemc:  I'm not sure how to clear all the entries I put in previously though
[07:10] <jsizzle> Dr_willis:  configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 3.1 (20021021)) (library qt-mt) not found. Please check your installation!
[07:10] <petemc> ray_: entries?
[07:10] <ray_> petemc: yeah when I did ndiswrapper -m
[07:10] <Gigi> someothernick works perfect! Thanks!!
[07:10] <Dr_willis> jsizzle,  and this means a lot to me because? :)
[07:10] <jsizzle> Dr_willis: that's what I get from sudo ./configure for kooldock
[07:10] <someothernick> Gigi, np :)
[07:10] <leonel> CreepyCrawly: ok I'll try that ...
[07:10] <dyrne> ahave: ps -A though less informative will give you the process and pid also
[07:11] <Dr_willis> jsizzle,  looks like its wanting the qt-mt developer files/libraries then...
[07:11] <mzanfardino> errr... what is "lynx- checkit" ?
[07:11] <ahave> ray_, the number that comes back using grep doesnt seem to work
[07:11] <Gigi> even one buggy login page, the bug stills :P
[07:11] <Gigi> cool
[07:11] <Dr_willis> !find qt-mt
[07:11] <ray_> ahave: what does it say?
[07:11] <ubotu> Package/file qt-mt does not exist in edgy
[07:11] <Dr_willis> jsizzle,  or some other qt-developer packages
[07:12] <ahave> ray_, http://rafb.net/p/v2UD0e15.html
[07:12] <ahave> ray_, does that help?
[07:12] <ray_> that's because the only instance of open office that is running is the grep command you just did
[07:12] <petemc> ray_: just reinstall, dont worry about that
[07:13] <alexmac> hi people, how do I request that an ubuntu package is updated? wacom-tools is rather out of date and I'd like it updated so that people can use my tablet configuration applet: http://alexmac.cc/tablet-apps
[07:13] <ray_> petemc: ok
[07:13] <Wulfie> can anyone help me setting up 32 bit Firefox on a 64 bit Ubuntu system?
[07:13] <jsizzle> Dr_willis: libqt3-mt-dev: Depends: libglu1-mesa-dev but it is not going to be installed
[07:13] <petemc> ray_: that just adds an entry to load the ndiswrappper on boot, your newly installed module will have the same name so its all good
[07:13] <mxpxpod> I have mysql-server-5.0 installed, but there are no rows in the mysql.time_zone table... can someone else with mysql-server-5.0 installed confirm this?
[07:13] <max17> mxpxpod: find the pid and then kill the pid number
[07:14] <dyrne> alexmac: you can /j ubuntu-devel  and ask but they might smite you
[07:14] <Dr_willis> jsizzle,  force it? :) no idea.. my current install is so whacked out since i updated kde to 3.5.6 that i cant install half the dev packages any more either
[07:14] <max17> dyrne: find the pid and then kill the pid number
[07:14] <ray_> petemc: actually it seems I was using ndiswrapper 1.1
[07:14] <knight> hi how can i save a page using wget?
[07:14] <alexmac> dyrne: ok, I'll try asking there
[07:14] <mxpxpod> max17: I assume that wasn't for me?
[07:14] <max17> mxpxpod: i've recently installed ubuntu 6.10 server (no need for gui) and want to change my ip configuration from dchp to a static address.  i've changed my /etc/network/interfaces to reflect what i had assumed was the correct settings, but when i boot the server eth0 never comes up, and when i start it manually i have no ip address....
[07:15] <CreepyCrawly> max17, did you try dhclient
[07:15] <ray_> petemc: I'm having some crazy errors over here
[07:15] <CreepyCrawly> when you up the interface
[07:15] <jsizzle> Dr_willis: what's the diff btween kde 3.5.5 and 3.5.6?
[07:15] <max17> jsizzle: find the pid and then kill the pid number
[07:15] <ahave> ray_, perhaps the loader for openoffice.org is stuck? i see the loadup screen on my desktop.. and it is not making any progress
[07:15] <knight> hi how can i save a webpage using wget?
[07:15] <Qwell[] > ping<space><tab>  what the heck is that trying to complete?
[07:15] <Dr_willis> jsizzle,  lots of little bug fix's - i dont advise upgrading to it.
[07:16] <Qwell[] > on my laptop, it's giving me some bizarre hash, and on my desktop, it's giving just "|1|"
[07:16] <ray_> ahave: I'm not sure what that would be called
[07:16] <CreepyCrawly> i want hash

[07:16] <lemonsCC> i need help with my network..........i am trying to access the internet through my mac (shared internet) it works with windows and not with dapper...
[07:16] <ray_> ahave: try ps aux | less and scroll through slowly and read each process
[07:16] <ahave> ray_, i also can not use ctrl-alt-esc -- it just highlights the entire screen or the task bars
[07:16] <lemonsCC> i tried adding the gateway route...no dice =(
[07:16] <ahave> ray_ ok
[07:17] <jsizzle> Dr_willis: this is gayness, I just want to compile a program it shouldn't be this tough to get the dev packages i need
[07:17] <ray_> petemc: I'm still getting the same error when trying to add ndiswrapper
[07:17] <jessie^^> is there any way I can keep anything from modifying my resolv.conf?
[07:17] <max17> jessie^^: i've recently installed ubuntu 6.10 server (no need for gui) and want to change my ip configuration from dchp to a static address.  i've changed my /etc/network/interfaces to reflect what i had assumed was the correct settings, but when i boot the server eth0 never comes up, and when i start it manually i have no ip address....

[07:17] <ahave> could i kill the xsession manager?
[07:18] <s-ndh-c> hey people
[07:18] <klimraamkosie> I need help syncing with my Sony Ericsson :(  I can't get it to work on /dev/ttyACM1 or ACM0 or USB0 or USB1, it only mounts the memory card on /sdb nothing else.  What now?  Ubuntu Edgy.
[07:18] <s-ndh-c> why doesnt edgy have the new gnome menu?
[07:18] <Qwell[] > klimraamkosie: what does dmesg say it is?
[07:19] <Qwell[] > and do you have the usbserial module loaded?
[07:19] <max17> Qwell[] : find the pid and then kill the pid number
[07:19] <s-ndh-c> i mean opensuse uses it too, why ubuntu doesnt?
[07:19] <Frog_Racer> Frog_Racer is outta here
[07:19] <Qwell[] > max17: eh?

[07:19] <pi_> hi guys! someone can help me with pureftp?
[07:19] <ray_> petemc: thanks a ton, that worked
[07:19] <Anubi1> how cand i find out the username and password from a internet connection using pppoeconf ?
[07:20] <petemc> ray_: reinstalling or updating?
[07:20] <pi_> anubi, try locate pppoe
[07:20] <klimraamkosie> Qwell[] : usbserial module?  where do I get that?
[07:21] <Qwell[] > it should be there on any sane kernel
[07:21] <klimraamkosie> well it's ubuntu edgy
[07:21] <Qwell[] > whether ubuntu includes it by default, I have no idea.  Check dmesg though
[07:21] <klimraamkosie> so it should probably be there
[07:21] <petemc> Anubi1: look in /etc/ppp/ for files with secrets in the name
[07:21] <klimraamkosie> [17215061.180000]  ohci_hcd 0000:00:02.0: wakeup
[07:21] <max17> petemc: find the pid and then kill the pid number

[07:21] <klimraamkosie> [17215061.788000]  usb 1-1: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[07:21] <ray__> petemc: yeah it works beautifully, thank you very much
[07:22] <klimraamkosie> it says that, then it mounts the memory card.
[07:22] <petemc> cool, np
[07:22] <Anubi1> petemc they look empty
[07:22] <mzanfardino> CreepyCrawly: I'm not sure what Max17 is restating my original question (concerning the static ip address), but I'm the one with the problem.  Now, you mentioned dhclient.  I had not run dhclient, but when I did it set my ip address to the old, dynamic (leased) address, so that doesn't seem to resolve my issue.
[07:22] <klimraamkosie> and then [17215066.860000]  sd 55:0:0:0: Attached scsi removable disk sdb
[07:22] <klimraamkosie> [17215066.860000]  sd 55:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg1 type 0
[07:22] <ray__> ahave: any luck?
[07:22] <klimraamkosie> that's all
[07:22] <ahave> ray_, none
[07:22] <Qwell[] > klimraamkosie: then it isn't being picked up as a serial device
[07:22] <Anubi1> petemc : how should i open them ?
[07:22] <ahave> ray_, can i just kill the xsession?
[07:22] <max17> Qwell[] : find the pid and then kill the pid number
[07:22] <max17> ahave: find the pid and then kill the pid number
[07:22] <petemc> Anubi1: sudo cat
[07:22] <ray__> ahave:  why not just restart completely?
[07:22] <klimraamkosie> Qwell[] : ok then what do I do about that? :/
[07:22] <CreepyCrawly> cuz the dhcp server has a lease time
[07:22] <ahave> ray_, with what command?
[07:23] <CreepyCrawly> to that mac address
[07:23] <Qwell[] > got me, I only came here to figure out why ping/bash is being retarded on ubuntu
[07:23] <klimraamkosie> :)
[07:23] <Qwell[] > and clearly nobody knows, so...yeah
[07:23] <klimraamkosie> thanks for the insight though
[07:23] <ahave> ray_, the ubuntu power button thingy... top right corner is also non responsive
[07:23] <ray__> /sbin/init 3 may work
[07:23] <max17> ray__: d.h ich muss 3 monate zahlen und dann kann ich k
[07:23] <ray__> max17: I don't speak that language :o
[07:24] <max17> ray__: don't panic
[07:24] <ghetek> how do i fix this? Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy-backports/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz  Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)
[07:24] <mzanfardino> CreepyCrawly: yeah, I figured that.  But since I've changed my /etc/network/interface to disable dhcp and configured it with a static address, then booted, I'd assumed that A) the NIC would start automatically on eth0 (it didn't) and that B) the IP address assigned would be what I configured in interfaces (it doesn't)... did I miss a step?
[07:24] <CreepyCrawly> check yourt ifup scripts
[07:24] <mzanfardino> CreepyCrawly: ok, one sec
[07:24] <Anubi1> petemc : thx a lot it works
[07:25] <max17> mzanfardino: ok wait
[07:25] <Deevay> j #ubuntu-nl

[07:25] <lemonsCC> i tried adding the gateway route...no dice =(
[07:26] <petemc> lemonsCC: the mac should do dhcp
[07:26] <lemonsCC> everything is setup fine on the mac, as it works with windows
[07:26] <max17> lemonsCC: i need help with my network..........i am trying to access the internet through my mac (shared internet) it works with windows and not with dapper...

[07:26] <max17> dyrne: i need help with my network..........i am trying to access the internet through my mac (shared internet) it works with windows and not with dapper...
[07:26] <lemonsCC> but ubuntu isnt getting anything
[07:26] <mzanfardino> CreepyCrawly: sorry, thought I would have some idea where ifup script might be.  I have a /usr/share/ifupdown directory with a few python scripts.  Are these what I'm to be looking at?
[07:26] <jojoman02> how do i feed file1.avi and file2.avi into mplayer as one file???

[07:27] <dyrne> bots..
[07:27] <lemonsCC> dyrne: i dont have internet on that comp...
[07:27] <ziadoz> in gparted does the /boot flag mean the partition is active?
[07:27] <lemonsCC> dyrne: nevermind...ill use a flashdrive
[07:27] <CreepyCrawly> /etc/network
[07:27] <Taime1> how do i completely remove a program so that when i reinstall that program, there is no evidence of the first install? i want to go through the setup again...
[07:27] <max17> Taime1: i need help with my network..........i am trying to access the internet through my mac (shared internet) it works with windows and not with dapper...
[07:28] <gdb> Taime1: apt-get --purge remove package_name
[07:28] <Taime1> thanks gdb, i knew there was a command for it
[07:28] <gdb> Taime1: :-)
[07:28] <lemonsCC> why is max17 repeating me?
[07:28] <max17> lemonsCC: des is so zum lernen wie objektorirentiert funktioniert
[07:28] <gdb> lemonsCC: You're going to have to provide more information than "it doesn't work."
[07:30] <gdb> "I get a no route to host message." "ping works but I can't use ssh." "I've ensured every machine is on the same subnet." "I've ensured the router port the Ubuntu machine is plugged into works by plugging in the Windows machine."  "I've verified that the Ubuntu machine has link." etc etc
[07:30] <jsizzle> Dr_willis: k I got past my libqt3-mt-dev problem, now it's complaining it can't find the kde header files, I can't find a package for kde headers do you know of one?
[07:31] <Dr_willis> jsizzle,  fire up the package manager.. search for kde. and isntall all the dev pakcages that look right. :) i got over a tb of drive space.. so i got most all them installed.
[07:31] <Dr_willis> jsizzle,  that has to be one of the core dev pakcages for kde.. so i imagine ya will find it quickly.
[07:31] <lemonsCC> gdb: this is my first time trying to access teh internet this way, i am uploading to pastbin now
[07:31] <lemonsCC> !pastebin
[07:31] <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)
[07:31] <mzanfardino> CreepyCrawly: I'm not sure what I'm expected to find.  I've looked in /etc/network and find four directories: two for if-down and two for if-up.  the scripts in if-up simply mount my file system and set my clock using ntp.  Thus far, all the research I've been able to do has indicated that I should merely have to change my /etc/network/interfaces, so I'm not clear as to what I should expect in the if-up scripts...
[07:32] <jsizzle> Dr_willis: I did an apt-cache search kde | grep header, and got notta. Now I'm trying it your way with the gui pkg manager
[07:32] <lemonsCC> gdb: dyrne: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7675/
[07:32] <Taime1> gdb...
[07:32] <ray__> quick question, what's a good wifi scanner?
[07:32] <Taime1> sorry to rebother, but that actualy didnt work.
[07:32] <Taime1> i mean, it uninstalled
[07:33] <gdb> lemonsCC: You can't use && in your sudo statement.  Run each command separately.
[07:33] <Taime1> but when i reinstalled, the history was there, and it didnt prompt me to setup the program
[07:33] <lemonsCC> gdb: ok jjust a minute
[07:33] <ray__> I had a program in windows that used to scan all available networks, with a lot of information on each one. I can't remember the name and I'm looking for a linux equivalent
[07:33] <gdb> Taime1: Then you perhaps need to delete some dot files / directories in your home directory.  The --purge will remove system configuration files, but not personal configuration that the package sets up in your home directory.
[07:34] <Rayko> hi again all
[07:34] <gdb> Taime1: $ ls -a
[07:34] <senur_alex> my friend just got my kunbuntu and I've been looking for unrar, but it won't show up in my synaptic, what are some good repositories to add so I can find unrar amoung other things?
[07:34] <gdb> Taime1: Then look for files and directories in your home directory named (likely) after the application.  Rename / move them (so you can restore them later if it doesn't work).
[07:34] <Dr_willis> !unrar
[07:34] <ubotu> rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[07:34] <ziadoz> in gparted does the /boot flag mean the partition is active?
[07:34] <Dr_willis> !rar
[07:34] <Taime1> cool, thanks
[07:34] <Dr_willis> senur_alex,  its in the normal repos.  multiverse or universe i think
[07:34] <deb_user> firefox is crashing, I think because I have two flash plugins running, is there a way to disable without uninstalling any of them? (running ubuntu dapper)
[07:35] <dyrne> ray__: kismet puts to shame pretty anything windows offers..unless windows offers kismet :)
[07:35] <ray__> thanks dyrne
[07:35] <senur_alex> I don't know what that means, this is really my first time using linux
[07:35] <petemc> dyrne: netstumbler is pretty good
[07:35] <senur_alex> I found an unrar program online thats free, but I don't know how to...bring it into the system
[07:35] <Wildcard^> im new tro linux ubuntu.. it reminds me of amigaos. this is good
[07:36] <ray__> petemc: that's the one I was thinking of
[07:36] <senur_alex> whats normal repos?
[07:36] <ray__> what repository would that be in?
[07:36] <carlesoriol> Where is the right place to put iptables rules in edgy startup?
[07:36] <dyrne> petemc: bah. :)
[07:36] <Gigi> how can I install wine?
[07:37] <senur_alex> https://gna.org/projects/unrar/
[07:37] <ray__> sudo apt-get install wine
[07:37] <Gigi> thanks
[07:37] <senur_alex> has a .tar.gz file
[07:37] <gdb> senur_alex: "normal repos" refers to the 3 standard Ubuntu package repositories (online sources of software) known as main, universe, and multivers.  Other Ubuntu repositories outside of that, but under the Ubuntu umbrella, are commercial and backports.
[07:37] <senur_alex> but I odn't know what to do with it...once its extracted.
[07:37] <Rayko> TROUBLEEE!!! i followed this one
[07:37] <Rayko> http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Comprehensive_Sound_Problems_Solutions_Guide
[07:37] <gdb> er multiverse*
[07:37] <Rayko> and now it won't even recognice my sound card!
[07:37] <Rayko> i type aplay -l and i get
[07:38] <Rayko> aplay: device_list:222: no soundcards found...
[07:38] <senur_alex> oh...but those repositories should already be accessed by synaptic right?
[07:38] <Wildcard^> when i try to run utorrent with wine i get class object errors.. it worked the first time but now it refuses even after deleting and reinstalling both the program and wine
[07:38] <Gigi> busy server :P 11kbps
[07:38] <ray__> hm, I can't seem to find netstumbler with apt-get
[07:38] <Gigi> not now, 321 kpbs lol
[07:38] <petemc> ray__: its a windows app
[07:38] <ray__> they don't have a linux port?
[07:39] <petemc> seemingly not

[07:39] <nutterpc> hmmmmmmms
[07:39] <gdb> senur_alex: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories are what you may want to read.
[07:39] <Gigi> and how can I install java?
[07:39] <Phasor> Hello there all. Can someone recommend a good media player to me? Also, what do I need to do to install a MP3 decoder? Do I only need Synaptic (set to the multiverse) or do I need something more?

[07:42] <nowhere> Does anybody know how to fix sound sync issues that appear in games?
[07:42] <Spinnaker> this is very very very stupid question, but how can I start some program from terminal?
[07:42] <Silencer> I have a simple problem, I never use ISDN external modem over USB and or Serial port to connect on internet, is there any guide how to connect on internet over ISDN ?

[07:42] <Gigi> How can  install java guys?
[07:42] <ray__> the runtime enviroment?
[07:42] <Gigi> yes
[07:43] <sami> there is no such package as cgwd in the repo
[07:43] <IndyGunFreak> Gigi: use SPM
[07:43] <Gigi> to browse, and see it... IndyGunFreak what's that?
[07:43] <Gigi> indygunfreak I just need it to view java sites
[07:43] <rnodal> quit
[07:43] <IndyGunFreak> Gigi: Synaptic Package Manager.. it should be in your Admin menu
[07:43] <Gigi> Oh... true... and what file is?
[07:43] <Gigi> java?
[07:44] <dyrne> nowhere: easiest solution is a 29 dollar sblive card :)
[07:44] <IndyGunFreak> Gigi: yes, just doa  search for Java, and right click, mark for install, then hit apply
[07:44] <ray__> I have no idea how to use kismet
[07:44] <Gigi> indygunfreak there are several javas there
[07:44] <Wildcard^> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy
[07:44] <Gigi> indyguyfreak JavaCC?
[07:44] <IndyGunFreak> Gigi: was just noticing that...lolk, hang on
[07:44] <IdleOne> Gigi, sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre
[07:44] <Wildcard^> that guide told me everything
[07:44] <Gigi> thanks!
[07:45] <Beverage> hey folks whats the command to kill frostwire proces?
[07:45] <ray__> Beverage: you need the pid
[07:45] <dyrne> Beverage: pkill frostwire  is one
[07:45] <IndyGunFreak> IdleOne: thats what i was trying to think of, couldn't remember the apt-command
[07:45] <jstrodtb> hi, i'm trying to upgrade from 5.04 (hoaryhedgehog)...can anyone tell me if there's a way to do it without wiping my HD
[07:45] <Beverage> k
[07:45] <jstrodtb> pm me if so
[07:45] <egzorcysta> wooooow !! i love you all my LinuX brothers and sisters!! i'm new user from poland :) kiss 4 all :)
[07:45] <dyrne> Beverage: or xkill and enter will give you a menacing skull to attack windows with
[07:45] <IndyGunFreak> egzorcysta: if you're a man, a handshake will do fine
[07:45] <IdleOne> Gigi, you might also want to install sun-java5-plugins
[07:45] <egzorcysta> :)
[07:45] <senur_alex> gbd: can you send me a private message so I can ask you something, I'm finding it really hard to keep up with what people say in the main chat?
[07:45] <Gigi> egzorcysta welcome budiie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! but handshake is betta!!!
[07:46] <Beverage> oh cool
[07:46] <Gigi> Idleone ok... thanks, I look for that on synaptics then
[07:46] <jstrodtb> anyone?
[07:46] <IdleOne> Gigi, np
[07:46] <Gigi> or with apt too
[07:46] <Gigi> thanks!
[07:46] <jstrodtb> they quit supporting 5.04, so ic an't use the synaptic package manager
[07:46] <jstrodtb> or apt-get
[07:46] <jstrodtb> or anything
[07:46] <IdleOne> Gigi, with apt-get yes
[07:46] <egzorcysta> ok.. i go for configurate my nev ubuntu :) see ya :)
[07:46] <jstrodtb> i've got a cd w/ 6.1
[07:46] <bigjohntoday> so how long does this memorytest take?
[07:46] <Gigi> ok faster :P Thanks!
[07:46] <jstrodtb> 6.10
[07:46] <bigjohntoday> 2 hrs and still not complete
[07:47] <IndyGunFreak> jstrodtb: it migh be wise to just backup all your critical files, and do a clean install.
[07:47] <IdleOne> bigjohntoday, could take a wwwwwhile still go out to see a movie
[07:47] <Gigi> good luck egzorcysta... if you need help come... there are plenty of nice people here
[07:47] <mzanfardino> CreepyCrawly: just in case you were curious, the problem has nothing to do with scripts. It was a mispelling in interfaces.  I was able to identify it by first running /etc/init.d/network restart and observing an error.  closer inspection revealed a typo in the netmask statement.
[07:47] <jstrodtb> yeah, i was hoping to avoid that
[07:47] <IndyGunFreak> cuz i'm pretty sure you'd have to upgrade to breezy, then dapper, then edgy, it'd be a big ass pain
[07:47] <jstrodtb> that sounds annoying
[07:47] <bigjohntoday> idleone you think the memorytest is useful or just a waste of my time?
[07:47] <jstrodtb> i'd have to burn an iso of breezy first?
[07:47] <CreepyCrawly> there you go :)
[07:48] <IndyGunFreak> jstrodtb: i've always done clean installs, but it does indeed.
[07:48] <Dr_willis> jstrodtb,  its may be much better idea in the long run to backup your /home and other data files and just do a clean install.
[07:48] <IndyGunFreak> jstrodtb: i'm pretty sure.
[07:48] <IdleOne> bigjohntoday, never ran one so i couldnt say
[07:48] <bigjohntoday> i c
[07:48] <jstrodtb> it's just b/c i'm not the only user
[07:48] <jstrodtb> so i'll tell the other guy who uses this machine to backup
[07:48] <Dr_willis> I alwaos do clean installs with /home on its own hd - so i dont have to worry about loseing /home
[07:48] <IndyGunFreak> you can't just go from your distro to edgy, you gotta baby step it with the distros in between
[07:48] <ray__> I can't get kismet to run :\
[07:48] <senur_alex> I found a free unrar program online at http://packages.debian.org/unstable/utils/unrar-free but I don't know how to install it, can anyone help me?
[07:48] <jstrodtb> blech, forget it...thx for the help
[07:48] <jsizzle> I can't install the kde dev packages I want everything says it needs things that can't be installed. god damn it ubuntu pos
[07:48] <petemc> ray__: doesnt work with ndiswrappper
[07:48] <Gigi> jstrodtb I updated from 5.10 to 6.06 and was a mess... save your config files, download 6.10 format and go on and start over... at the end, you will do it... so dont waste time and do it from now :P
[07:48] <ray__> petemc: doh!
[07:49] <Dr_willis> senur_alex,  the rar/unrar tools are in the repositories - you dont need to download those...
[07:49] <IndyGunFreak> jstrodtb: you should just do a new install.. its not that hard to backup
[07:49] <IdleOne> senur_alex, use synaptic it's in the repos
[07:49] <jstrodtb> config files....?
[07:49] <IndyGunFreak> which you should have backups anyways
[07:49] <jstrodtb> honestly, i've never gotten int he guts of linux
[07:49] <Dr_willis> senur_alex,  enable the proper repository and you can apt-get install them or use synaptic
[07:49] <senur_alex> I can't find them in my synaptic
[07:49] <jstrodtb> what needs to be backed up besides documents etc?
[07:49] <Dr_willis> senur_alex,  'enable the proper repositories'
[07:49] <ray__> well thanks for the help everyone, have a good day
[07:49] <IndyGunFreak> jstrodtb: all the more reason to just back up important files, and do a new install.
[07:49] <Dr_willis> !info unrar-free
[07:49] <ziadoz> in gparted does the /boot flag mean the partition is active?
[07:49] <ubotu> unrar-free: Unarchiver for .rar files. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:0.0.1+cvs20060609-1 (edgy), package size 17 kB, installed size 80 kB
[07:49] <james296> ok, somehow I lost the smoothness of the text by default, and I dont know how to get it back
[07:49] <IdleOne> !universe | senur_alex enable universe
[07:49] <ubotu> senur_alex enable universe: 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
[07:49] <Gigi> jstrodtb the .mozilla/firefox folder the .evolution folder and
[07:50] <Gigi> your documents
[07:50] <jstrodtb> .evolution is....?
[07:50] <senur_alex> I read that about the sections
[07:50] <jstrodtb> bookmarks etc?
[07:50] <senur_alex> hold on a sec
[07:50] <IndyGunFreak> jstrodtb: you can just export your bookmarks to a file, and back them up with your data.
[07:50] <IndyGunFreak> use the export function.
[07:50] <Gigi> jstrodtb .evolution is the email client, you can find in on /home/yourname folder... you must enable hidden files to view it
[07:50] <IndyGunFreak> jstrodtb: if you don't know what evolution is, you probably don't need to back i tup.. :)
[07:50] <IcemanV9> jstrodtb: if you cannot decide, then back up your /home/jstrodtb dir (just to be safe :)
[07:51] <james296> I do NOT want to have to reinstall Ubuntu, just to get the smoothness back...
[07:51] <IndyGunFreak> james296: what caused you to lose the "smoothness"
[07:51] <Gigi> jstrodtb for the bookmarks... just manage bookmarks and save it.... if you have many passwords saved, just save your folder .mozilla/firefox and all the bookmarks,configs and passwordfs will go with you
[07:52] <senur_alex> So should I activate Edgy security universe? Edgy backports universe? or archive universe? and should I do deb or deb-src?
[07:52] <james296> Im not sure exactly, maybe when I added repositories to the sources.list Im not 100% sure though
[07:52] <james296> Im really not sure how it happened
[07:52] <IndyGunFreak> james296: what probs are you having?
[07:52] <IdleOne> senur_alex, enable universe and multiverse if you follow that link ubotu gave you it should tell you ho
[07:52] <IdleOne> w
[07:53] <james296> no problems, just the text on everything look uglier than it used to
[07:53] <IndyGunFreak> ?.. hmm
[07:53] <IndyGunFreak> i guess i've never looked at the fine beauty of text
[07:54] <IdleOne> james296, need to know what was done before you can undo it.
[07:54] <IcemanV9> james296: did you update recently? if so, maybe that's what causes the font looks ugly
[07:54] <IndyGunFreak> is anyone else addicted to frozen bubble?
[07:55] <james296> I dont know, should I reinstall ubuntu-desktop, would that fix the problem?
[07:55] <IdleOne> james296, we dont know what the problem is yet
[07:55] <iniakulohhahaha> anyone can tell me what line that i should add to my iptables ( transparant proxy ) with squid.conf at sat-c.net/squid.conf and iptables at sat-c.net/iptables.txt cause i have try to add /sbin/iptables -F -t nat | /sbin/iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth1 -p tcp -s 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 --dport 80 -j DNAT --to 192.168.1.254:2210 the result are : working but i cant browse to anywhere.com:port
[07:55] <senur_alex> I already followed and read the links that ubotu gave me, but there are mutliple universes and multiverses when I go to my mangage repositories in synaptics, and I don't which ones Ishould enable. should I enable http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy or backports or security?
[07:55] <IcemanV9> james296: how do you update? you can take a look at the log. e.g. if you use aptitude, then look at /var/log/aptitude
[07:55] <fuffe> is there any torrent client for ubuntu?

[07:56] <ubotu> senur_alex try this link: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[07:57] <ikonia> leonel: you should just plug it in - and dhcp will offer an address for it
[07:57] <fuffe> IcemanV9, Azerus default?
[07:57] <leonel> ikonia: with USB ..
[07:57] <senur_alex> also when I try to add the universe it says "packages in this component arn't supported. are you sure?"
[07:57] <leonel> let me re do my question
[07:57] <ikonia> leonel: same
[07:57] <IdleOne> senur_alex, click yes
[07:57] <leonel> dhclient ??
[07:57] <ikonia> yup
[07:57] <senur_alex> okay
[07:58] <leonel> what  interface  ?
[07:58] <leonel> no eth0
[07:58] <leonel> only shows   lo    the  ifconfig
[07:58] <senur_alex> oshould I add the deb and the deb-src?
[07:58] <IcemanV9> fuffe: nope. sudo aptitude install azureus
[07:58] <IdleOne> senur_alex, yes
[07:58] <IndyGunFreak> I like KTorrent
[07:58] <ikonia> leonel: ahhh you need to use ppp
[07:59] <leonel> ikonia:  the router  does the auth  to de  dsl provider   and  the router has a dhcpserver
[07:59] <fuffe> cemanV9, wtf? I thought it was apt-get..
[07:59] <leonel> ikonia: any link or page
[07:59] <leonel> ?
[07:59] <IdleOne> fuffe, apt-get or aptitude
[07:59] <fuffe> ok
[07:59] <ikonia> leonel: sorry - not off the top of my head
[07:59] <IcemanV9> fuffe: OR sudo apt-get install azureus (same thing)
[08:00] <fuffe> is there any reason for not using apt-get?
[08:00] <IcemanV9> fuffe: just preference
[08:00] <IdleOne> fuffe, aptitude tracks dependencies a little better sometimes
[08:01] <senur_alex> Thank you guys SO MUCH
[08:01] <IdleOne> senur_alex, np
[08:01] <senur_alex> that totally cleared things up and made things work
[08:01] <fuffe> why not implement that better functionality in apt-get then?
[08:01] <con-man_> senur_alex:  thats why I love this channel
[08:01] <rjefferson> has anyone ever configured avahi?
[08:01] <IdleOne> because apt-get is better at other things
[08:01] <oxigen> can i get similar gui for bittorrent in ubuntu?  http://www.bittorrent.com/images/client/btscrn_full_5_0_6.png
[08:01] <rjefferson> (zeroconf my ass)

[08:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ohmy rjefferson - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:02] <senur_alex> Its really hard being a first time linux user from windows, it seems awesome but I just don't know any of the lingo or what things are... itslike learning a new language
[08:02] <IdleOne> !ohmy | rjefferson
[08:02] <ubotu> rjefferson: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:02] <rjefferson> did i use bad language?
[08:02] <IdleOne> senur_alex, great isnt it?
[08:02] <IdleOne> rjefferson, you did
[08:02] <senur_alex> 1/2 great 1/2 terrifing
[08:02] <rjefferson> ok.
[08:03] <fuffe> whats the best video-editing program for ubuntu/kubuntu/xubuntu?
[08:03] <oxigen> fuffe: blender
[08:03] <petemc> blender does video editing?
[08:03] <Pici> oxigen: Last I checked, blender was a 3d rendering suite, not a video editor
[08:03] <IdleOne> senur_alex, the terrifying part is what makes it great 
[08:03] <fuffe> isn't blender 3d edting?
[08:03] <petemc> kino or cinelarra are the only two i can think of
[08:04] <oxigen> it's also video editor
[08:04] <slyfox> http://www.kmobiletools.org/node/287/730#comment-730
[08:04] <slyfox> I mean Has anyone successfuly synced their phonebook with their mobile phone via bluetooth? Help.
[08:04] <senur_alex> I don't know, I really like to know how to make things work/install tihngs I find... its frustrating when people talk about widgets and compiling programs and things liike that which I just don't understand
[08:04] <fuffe> oxigen, doesn it have all functions that windows editor have + is easy to use?
[08:04] <kelsin> yeah blender is often referred to as a compositor, depends on what you're doing whether it will be good for it or not
[08:05] <IdleOne> senur_alex, next time you see a program you want to try out check in synaptic first to see if it's there
[08:05] <oxigen> fuffe: it's not easy to use
[08:05] <Kilroo> 800x600 is...brutal...
[08:05] <fuffe> ok, but at least I prefer to use an application in what it's meant to be used for.
[08:05] <senur_alex> yeah I like synaptic a LOT, but once it didn'twork, I was lost in the forest of linux
[08:06] <kane77> what can I use to convert pdf to ps?
[08:06] <fuffe> I don't want to use a video editing program where I can use Photoshop
[08:06] <IdleOne> senur_alex, good chance it is and if it isnt then you can always ask  in here for help on compiling. btw you might want to sudo aptitude install build-essential ( or look for it in synaptic ) it will help you alot with compiling
[08:07] <tenco> what script spawns this process: "/bin/dd bs 1 if /proc/kmsg of /var/run/klogd/kmsg" ?
[08:07] <gmz> does anyone one have tutorial for installing Ubuntu on vmware?
[08:07] <fuffe> any real simple, feature rich video editing program for linux

[08:07] <IdleOne> fuffe, search in synaptic

[08:13] <Gigi> one hard question... this was hard... how can I install an HP All in one Printer/Scanner ?
[08:13] <ikonia> Fire_sly: 1.) thats an image mockup 2.) you need to patch the heck out of grub
[08:13] <ikonia> Gigi: plug it in and use cups
[08:14] <senur_alex> I tired to ope it with this program I got on synaptic COMIX "GTK Comic Book Viewer
[08:14] <senur_alex> Comix is a comic book viewer. It reads zip, rar, tar, tar.gz and
[08:14] <senur_alex> tar.bz2 archives (often called .cbz, .cbr and .cbt) as well as
[08:14] <senur_alex> normal image files. It is written in Python and has a simple user
[08:14] <senur_alex> interface using PyGTK."  But that says "could not find the unrar executable. please install if you wish to open rar archives"
[08:14] <Fire_sly> sorry but i'm italian.. what does "mockup" mean?
[08:14] <Gigi> ikonia where is cups
[08:14] <lemonsCC> ikonia: how can we get to something sexy like that?
[08:14] <Gigi> is plugged in
[08:14] <IdleOne> senur_alex, install comix from synaptic it should open that .cbr file
[08:14] <ikonia> Gigi:  you install it
[08:14] <Gigi> ok
[08:14] <lemonsCC> Fire_sly: its a proposed idea
[08:14] <IdleOne> err nm
[08:14] <ikonia> lemonsCC: its pointless - but you just apply a load of grub patches
[08:14] <Alam_Ubuntu> System Menu, Admin, Printing, New Printer icon
[08:14] <Fire_sly> and.. the "heck out" what means?
[08:14] <Gigi> ikonia how? I search cubs on synaptics and doesn't appear
[08:15] <Pici> senur_alex: you need unrar, not unrar-free
[08:15] <senur_alex> oh
[08:15] <ikonia> Gigi: make sure you have all the repo's enabled
[08:15] <lemonsCC> ikonia: but i want my 10 seconds of boot menu to be pretty =P
[08:15] <senur_alex> andthat costs money right?
[08:15] <ikonia> lemonsCC: get patching
[08:15] <IdleOne> senur_alex, wrong
[08:15] <lemonsCC> lol
[08:15] <Gigi> ikonia I think that I have them... multiverse, universe... etc
[08:15] <Pici> senur_alex: You'll need all the repos installed
[08:15] <senur_alex> repos?
[08:15] <gmz> Pici: do you have a tutorial for installing Ubuntu on vmware?
[08:15] <senur_alex> I thought I just got all of those
[08:15] <lemonsCC> lilo is graphical, but not like that
[08:15] <gmz> or with vmware
[08:15] <Fire_sly> ikonia..
[08:15] <ikonia> what ?
 and.. the "heck out" what means?
[08:16] <quintin> How do I show my home folder on my desktop?
[08:16] <Pici> gmz: A tutorial? Nope, sorry.  You should be able to run the livecd install in a vmware session though.
[08:16] <lemonsCC> Fire_sly: he means you need to do a lot of work
[08:16] <ikonia> Fire_sly: apply patches
[08:17] <Gigi> cubs-pdf is :)
[08:17] <lemonsCC> it takes the same amount of time to download fawn herd-4 as it does to burn it....lol
[08:17] <gmz> ok thank
[08:17] <gmz> thanks.
[08:17] <tbf> firefox not having tags (topics) for its bookmarks just isn't good enough for fixing bug #1
[08:18] <gnomefreak> tbf: its already been thought of and it doesnt seem it will happen for a while it was denied for feisty and edgy
[08:18] <cpare> hello
[08:18] <Quintin> tbf: laff.  get real
[08:18] <GionnyBoss> I installed SWAT to configure a Samba server, but if I try to go on localhost:901 on my web browser I can't connect to it. Can anybody help me, please?
[08:18] <tbf> gnomefreak: so we have to find some better marketing stunt
[08:19] <Quintin> GionnyBoss: inetd is crap.  just edit the conf file
[08:19] <gnomefreak> tbf: this isnt the channel for this topic either
[08:19] <Quintin> gnomefreak: fix my gnome problem, freak.
[08:19] <tbf> quintin: well what? the bookmark system of firefox is not usable.
[08:19] <Fire_sly> i have a boot screen like that: http://www.pcentraide.com/tutoriel/dual-boot/dual-boot-linux-windows-7.jpg how can i make it some more pretty?
[08:19] <Pici> hehe
[08:19] <Quintin> tbf: er, it works fine for me.
[08:19] <GionnyBoss> Quintin: ok thanks
[08:19] <tbf> quintin: geek - if you manage to organize your bookmarks in folders
[08:19] <gnomefreak> tbf: take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:19] <lemonsCC> !lilo | Fire_sly
[08:20] <ubotu> Fire_sly: lilo is an alternative [Li] nux Boot[Lo] ader. Note: it is recommended that you use GRUB on Ubuntu instead.
[08:20] <Quintin> tbf: the search function works
[08:20] <Quintin> is there a recommended way for cleaning unused kernels?
[08:20] <IdleOne> Fire_sly, how much time do you spend looking at the boot screen?
[08:20] <tbf> quintin: great: so you search for the exact title of your bookmark
[08:20] <Fire_sly> 1 or 2 seconds :P
[08:20] <ray_> hey, I'm having some trouble connecting to my windows computer. Can anyone help?
[08:20] <lemonsCC> IdleOne: eyecandy is eyecandy.....
[08:20] <IdleOne> ahhh well then this is a vital issue
[08:20] <mzuverink> Is there a proggy that converts .avi's to dvd, and shrinks them to fit on a 4.7 gig dvd?
[08:21] <Quintin> tbf: I search for 1 word that I know will be in the title.
[08:21] <Fire_sly> IdleOne, yes!
[08:21] <IcemanV9> Quintin: yes. sudo aptitude remove linux-image-xxxxx
[08:21] <gnomefreak> tbf: and Quintin move it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:21] <jaycie-away> can anyone tell me where to read onlkine how to connect with dialup to 6.06
[08:21] <Quintin> IcemanV9: I meant something to automatically remove them all.  I normally use apt, yes
[08:21] <Gigi> what do I need to do to minimice gaim in the tray and not as a window?
[08:21] <Quintin> jaycie-away: buy a real modem
[08:21] <Fire_sly> mzuverink try "divx to dvd" on google
[08:21] <nowhere> How can I fix sound sync problems with games? Dapper / nForce2 / Tremulous?
[08:21] <IdleOne> Fire_sly, you can try re-writing grub so it shows you pretty pictures or something for the 3 seconds you see it working
[08:21] <mzuverink> Fire_sly, kk
[08:22] <ray_> I can't connect to my windows computer on any level, RDP,  PING... nothing

[08:22] <jaycie-away> thanks gnomefreak
[08:22] <gnomefreak> jaycie-away: ignore his above comment
[08:22] <Quintin> jaycie-away: You can't really use a softmodem in linux
[08:22] <jaycie-away> i would love for it to connect to my wireless but so far no go. i thot maybe dialup was simpler is all
[08:22] <Quintin> gnomefreak: bite me, kthnxbie.
[08:22] <IdleOne> lol
[08:23] <IdleOne> ahhh
[08:23] <ray_> lol, gj
[08:23] <jaycie-away> gnomefreak seems quin is a op wanna be Laugh Out Loud
[08:23] <gop> !ppc
[08:23] <ubotu> ppc is PowerPC.  Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up until edgy, and is now a community port.
[08:23] <ray_> anyone have any ideas why I can't even ping the windows machine?
[08:23] <Pici> Do not taunt gnomefreak, for he is quick to anger.
[08:23] <Pici> ;)
[08:23] <quintin_> wtf is that all about?
[08:24] <IdleOne> ban evader
[08:24] <lemonsCC> lol
[08:24] <IdleOne> lol
[08:24] <tenco> rotfl
[08:24] <jaycie-away> gnomefreak i thot if there were docs online to read i would try that
[08:24] <Pici> Fire_sly: http://ruslug.rutgers.edu/~mcgrof/grub-images/ : Warning, this COULD break your system, but you asked for it.
[08:24] <quintin_> jaycie-away: Are you saying you want to sahre your internet connection somehow?  I don't understand you
[08:24] <cpare> Hello all
[08:24] <ray_> jeez, I can't even connect to my router
[08:24] <gop> what the best ppc distro beside ubuntu
[08:24] <ray_> no route to host
[08:25] <ray_> how am I even online if that's the case?
[08:25] <shatrat> gop, yellow dog linux and gentoo are the best supported PPC distros I believe
[08:25] <Pici> gop: Theres Yellow Dog
[08:25] <nowhere> nowhere
[08:25] <levander> Does rythmbox use OSS or ALSA?
[08:25] <jaycie-away> gnomefreak i will put 6.10on when i get a hard copy soon.. my iso would not work but 6.06 did and i have and airnet usb wireless adpter
[08:25] <nowhere> Does anybody know how to fix sound sync issues that appear in games?
[08:26] <IcemanV9> ray_: it would be better if you can check to see if win32 box is connected to network (ipconfig in cmd)
[08:26] <gop> will I be able to mount my other ext3 partion if I installed
[08:26] <gop> gentoo on a new hd
[08:26] <jaycie-away> Iceman me?
[08:26] <ray_> IcemanV9: it's on the network
[08:26] <ray_> I have an ip assigned my dhcp
[08:27] <IcemanV9> ray_: can win32 ping your ubuntu box?
[08:27] <ray_> by*
[08:27] <ray_> lets check, brb
[08:27] <ray_> nope
[08:27] <IcemanV9> jaycie-away: sorry? i wasn't typing to ya. (did I?)
[08:27] <jaycie-away> no IcemanV9 my error
[08:28] <Ayabara> what can I use to join multiple mpeg files or multiple avi files together?
[08:28] <IcemanV9> jaycie-away: ok. just making sure i did not ignore ya. :)
[08:28] <ray_> this is really strange, I'm connected to the right network
[08:28] <Pici> Ayabara: Try avidemux
[08:28] <jaycie> i thot it was very hard to do a wireless so not sure of my options
[08:28] <ray_> same subnet mask and all that
[08:28] <laguilar> hello all
[08:28] <IcemanV9> ray_: hm. okay. router is doing something with local networking.
[08:28] <ray_> but I can't access the router, or any other machine on the network, and the other machines can't access this machine
[08:29] <ray_> should I reset the router?
[08:29] <Ayabara> Pici, thanks
[08:29] <laguilar> what's new? Routing problems?
[08:29] <ray_> seems so
[08:29] <IcemanV9> ray_: if you cannot access the router, then it might be a good idea to reset it. (i have done it before)
[08:29] <dyrne> Ayabara: are they stand alone files or just like parts of a movie thats been broken up?
[08:30] <ray_> brb, lets see what happens when I reset it
[08:30] <nero> quick question- I am a long time fedora/redhat user, but am thinking of giving ubuntu a try.  I have noticed that there is a desktop and a server version.  I do both desktop (web development) and light serving (web/php/mysql for said web dev).  If I go with the desktop version, is it still easy to install the server apps?
[08:30] <jaycie> gnomefreak is there anything online that may help me figure out how to connect to net with 6.16
[08:30] <clitsey> can anyone help me out with a beryl issue?
[08:31] <gnomefreak> jaycie: the network manager not being helpful?
[08:31] <laguilar> what's the problem clitsey
[08:31] <dyrne> nero: the server install is basically just a stripped desktop install sans gui.
[08:31] <Torahteen> Hello all
[08:31] <jaycie> gnomefreak i can try that but i know NOTING how to put in what it asks *s*
[08:31] <nero> dyrne, great.. so the desktop install is ready/can install apache/mysql/php etc?
[08:31] <Ayabara> dyrne, parts of a movie broken up to stand alone files :-)
[08:31] <dyrne> nero: yeah. same repos packages etc
[08:31] <nero> (just want to make sure before I bite the bullet ;) )
[08:31] <nero> Great.. thanks dyrne! :
[08:31] <gnomefreak> jaycie: with dail up im not too sure i havent used dail up in many years
[08:31] <nero> :)
[08:31] <ray_> hmm, same problem
[08:32] <gnomefreak> jaycie: and never used it with linux
[08:32] <ray_> I'm using ndiswrapper, could that be an issue?
[08:32] <clitsey> when i run beryl-xgl --use-copy, i get this: "Checking for XComposite extension : failed"
[08:32] <dyrne> Ayabara: the above recommendation then :)
[08:32] <jaycie> gnomefreak do u use wireless with it?
[08:32] <Torahteen> Hey guys, I've got wireless issues
[08:32] <rael> thank you so much, found what i needed...
[08:32] <gnomefreak> nope
[08:32] <rael> spk soon
[08:32] <rael> bye
[08:32] <IcemanV9> ray_: can you access the router by wired, not wireless?
[08:32] <ray_> I'm gonna plug in and check
[08:32] <IcemanV9> ray_: good idea, dude :)
[08:32] <Ayabara> dyrne, ok. to join mpeg files as well?
[08:32] <gnomefreak> jaycie: cant use wireless i live out in middle of nowhere (i would never stay connected)
[08:33] <jaycie> i don't see a network mgr only networking and network tools under administration
[08:33] <Torahteen> Hey guys, has anyone here had any luck with Linksys wireless?
[08:33] <kyle999999999999> i just downloaded firefox 2 but i don't know how to install it as i'm new to linux, can somebody help?
[08:33] <nowhere> Does anybody know how to fix sound sync issues that appear in games?

[08:33] <ubotu> kyle999999999999: If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports
[08:33] <Torahteen> You've done it jaycie?
[08:33] <gnomefreak> shatrat: there isnt any firefox in backports
[08:33] <clitsey> when i run "beryl-xgl --use-copy", i get this: "Checking for XComposite extension : failed"
[08:33] <shatrat> gnomefreak, seriously?
[08:34] <gnomefreak> shatrat: not allowed to backport it
[08:34] <IcemanV9> ray_: good. check out all options and see if all boxes can talk to each other.
[08:34] <jaycie> gnomefreak sohow would u suggest i get online?
[08:34] <Spartacus> Can anyone give me a good suggestion for a graphics card to use with ubuntu and cedega?
[08:34] <ray_> where would I go to check that?
[08:34] <Ayabara> dyrne, Pici, isn't there a command line tool to join mpeg files?
[08:34] <shatrat> Spartacus, nvidia.  8800 if you can afford it
[08:34] <gnomefreak> jaycie: dont know maybe someone else in here can help more
[08:34] <lemonsCC> ffmpeg...maybe?

[08:35] <IcemanV9> ray_: well. it could be anything. you'll have to play with it 'til all machines can talk to each other.
[08:35] <nowhere> Who can help me? I have asked the question like 30 times during last 48 hours but nobody seems to know?  How can I fix sound sync issues?
[08:35] <gnomefreak> shatrat: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports
[08:35] <lemonsCC> lol
[08:35] <kyle999999999999> i don't get it???  infact, i don't get any of this ubuntu thing at all...  u mean to say that all the programs that are already on this ubuntu update themselfs sort of thing???
[08:35] <lemonsCC> !umbotu
[08:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about umbotu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:35] <gnomefreak> shatrat: the example explains firefox ;)
[08:35] <ray_> IcemanV9: I don't even know where to start
[08:35] <lemonsCC> !ubotu
[08:35] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[08:36] <shatrat> Spartacus, you mean manufacturer? That makes no difference, try and get one with a good reputation.  Just make sure to get an nvidia chipset cause the ati drivers are terrible
[08:36] <ray_> wirelessly I'm connected to the right network
[08:36] <shatrat> Spartacus, evga has a really good rep for customer support thoug
[08:36] <kelsin> kyle999999999999: yes, linux package management is a beautiful thing, any program you install (through ubuntu packages) will also update itself
[08:36] <Spartacus> shatrat, ah, okay. I thought some weren't because I saw an auction where someone said the card wouldn't work with their linux
[08:36] <kyle999999999999> that's awesome man
[08:37] <IcemanV9> ray_: can you ping win32 box now?
[08:37] <ray_> yes
[08:37] <jaycie> Torahteen u use linksys wireless router?
[08:37] <lemonsCC> kyle999999999999: why so many 9's?
[08:37] <kyle999999999999> no idea???  because i'm in a good mood lol
[08:37] <IcemanV9> ray_: ah! then try RDP
[08:37] <ray_> rdp works when I'm plugged in
[08:37] <lemonsCC> lol
[08:37] <ray_> if I unplug and connect to the wireless network, I can't access anything on the network
[08:38] <shatrat> kyle999999999999, you should round up to kyle10
[08:38] <Torahteen> Jacie I'm trying to
[08:38] <Torahteen> Jacie this computer I'm using is Ubuntu and is hardwired to the router
[08:38] <IcemanV9> ray_: ok. you'll need to find out why on the router. linksys or d-link?
[08:38] <ray_> linksys
[08:39] <kyle999999999999> another thing i need to ask, why is my monitor hurting my eyes now i'm funny this linux thing?  it's in the right hz and resolution?
[08:39] <Torahteen> My other computer has a wireless card installed, and ubuntu does recognize it, but won't connect
[08:39] <kyle999999999999> *running
[08:39] <kyle999999999999> *funny?
[08:39] <jaycie> Torahteen bout the same as me
[08:39] <lemonsCC> Torahteen: what is the other comp?  windows? mac?
[08:39] <jaycie> xp is easy but UGH
[08:39] <Torahteen> I have it configured properly, and I activate it, but can't get online
[08:39] <Torahteen> It's a dualboot with Windows and Ubuntu
[08:39] <IcemanV9> ray_: i could do it on wireless with linksys. i didn't do anything special on the router. why don't you check the security page | wireless tab
[08:40] <Torahteen> The windows side works great, but won't work in Ubuntu
[08:40] <kyle999999999999> do u think i need to install the right driver for my graphics card?
[08:40] <jaycie> Torahteen i think its hard to do wireless wiht ubuntu
[08:40] <lemonsCC> Torahteen: you are connecting how?  directly to the router?
[08:40] <jaycie> hm
[08:40] <lemonsCC> wireless nvm

[08:43] <arkanjul> Ok - IcemanV9 - then since i dont have the know how to compile myself - do you know of a decent GNOME themne with some eyecandy that would work on dapper?
[08:43] <nowhere> That worked for me.

[08:43] <Torahteen> I'll have to try ndiswrapper with it
[08:43] <shatrat> !upgrade | arkanjul it's not hard
[08:43] <ubotu> arkanjul it's not hard: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[08:43] <lemonsCC> Torahteen: if it does nothing unplug it
[08:43] <Torahteen> Ok
[08:43] <Torahteen> BTW, the light on my card isn't lighting up
[08:43] <Torahteen> Even after activating it
[08:43] <lemonsCC> well there was that one time when time stopped because of a usb device =P
[08:44] <jaycie> are there no help files online for this stuff?
[08:44] <Torahteen> Hehe, that's another thing... on the computer I'm on now, I can't seem to use USB devices...
[08:44] <Torahteen> Maybe USB flash drives don't work
[08:44] <Torahteen> Anyway, I'll try the USB out
[08:44] <IcemanV9> arkanjul: i wasn't typing to ya, but you can check it out at gnome-look.org. you might like something to jazzy up your theme. :)
[08:44] <lemonsCC> jaycie: for what studd
[08:45] <lemonsCC> stuff*
[08:45] <HejGuy> IcemanCZ, can i use debian's kernel?
[08:45] <jaycie> to get online with wireless lemonsCC
[08:45] <lemonsCC> !wireless
[08:45] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[08:45] <jaycie> cool ty
[08:45] <lemonsCC> =P
[08:45] <lemonsCC> start there
[08:45] <arkanjul> I went to that site - was trying to figure out what themes would work on what.. I have ubuntu 6.06 - Gnome - so would i try and install gtk2 themes?
[08:46] <jaycie> i will go read thanks lemonsCC
[08:46] <jaycie> bye
[08:47] <lemonsCC> !bye
[08:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bye - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:47] <lemonsCC> bye*
[08:47] <IcemanV9> HejGuy: bad idea; debian & ubuntu doesn't mix well
[08:47] <lemonsCC> !dos
[08:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dos - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:48] <lemonsCC> grrr
[08:48] <HejGuy> IcemanCZ, what about feisty?
[08:48] <IcemanV9> !kernel | HejGuy
[08:48] <ubotu> HejGuy: 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
[08:48] <shatrat> arkanjul, you want metacity themes for the window borders in gnome, and gtk2 themes for the buttons and titles and sliders and stuff for gtk apps
[08:48] <lemonsCC> any way to run dos on ubuntu?
[08:48] <lemonsCC> or an emulator
[08:48] <arkanjul> thanks Shatrat
[08:48] <gordonjcp> lemonsCC: dosbox
[08:48] <dyrne> arkanjul: i normally just tar xfvz theme.tar.gz then move the directory it creates like sudo mv theme/ /usr/share/themes/ if thats whate youre asking. gtk2 should work the most common error is pixmags which means you need to sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-pixbuf gtk-engines-pixmap
[08:48] <lemonsCC> gordonjcp: duh...the obvious wins again
[08:48] <lemonsCC> thanks
[08:48] <IcemanV9> HejGuy: if you have a spare box (or in vm), then you can play with feisty
[08:49] <HejGuy> LemonsCC, wine has dos
[08:49] <arkanjul> dyrne copying and pasting that thanks
[08:49] <lemonsCC> HejGuy: wine is a PITA
[08:49] <shatrat> arkanjul, but if oure interested in using beryl and bleeding edge stuff like that, you might want to upgrade to edgy before you do too much customization
[08:49] <tlhiv> i just updated to the latest (SVN) version of beryl and my cairo-dock hides itself and won't reveal itself again
[08:49] <arkanjul> I am a bit afraid that edgy will be too well "edgy" for my limited linux knowledge
[08:49] <HejGuy> IcemanCZ, i had been playing with feisty until they messed up bcm43xx :(
[08:49] <kyle999999999999> i don't get how to do any of this, there seems to be alot of writing about stuff i don't understand???  isn't there just a link to where i can download it and install it
[08:50] <ikonia> kyle999999999999: harsh nick name
[08:50] <HejGuy> kyle999999999999, ?
[08:50] <Grindar> I found a link to what I needed, but thanks for listening!
[08:50] <lemonsCC> he doesnt like CLI....kill him
[08:50] <kyle999999999999> i've got to here
[08:50] <kyle999999999999> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[08:50] <IcemanV9> HejGuy: heh. feisty is not stable yet.
[08:50] <ikonia> kyle999999999999: and whats the problem (apart from your silly long nickname)
[08:51] <kyle999999999999> i don't know how to install it?
[08:51] <lemonsCC> ^ firefox2
[08:51] <HejGuy> IcemanCZ, i know, but it runs surprisingly smooth on good days
[08:51] <ikonia> kyle999999999999: follow the instructions
[08:51] <shatrat> kyle999999999999, thats why there is a how-to, read it, it explains it better than we can in IRC
[08:51] <kyle999999999999> is it hard?
[08:51] <lemonsCC> clever: huh?
[08:51] <ikonia> kyle999999999999: depends if you know linux
[08:51] <ikonia> kyle999999999999: only you can answer that
[08:51] <kyle999999999999> i don't know it at all
[08:51] <clever> ^ is a triger for one of the scripts i made
[08:51] <Gigi> why some software such amule or skype doesn't minimice to tray like it did on 6.06?
[08:51] <lemonsCC> oh lol
[08:51] <ikonia> kyle999999999999: then you may struggle - take you're time and really read hats written and you'll be fine
[08:51] <IcemanV9> kyle999999999999: it is easy when you follow the instructions. i used it to get my ati card up and running.
[08:52] <lemonsCC> i was pointing up ^ there
[08:52] <fuffe> I know a movie in google video that I want to edit with FFmpeg.. how to do it?
[08:52] <ikonia> kyle999999999999: if you have quesitons, ask and people will help
[08:52] <lemonsCC> what bot is yours?
[08:52] <kyle999999999999> k
[08:52] <dasrot> can someone here help me make it so I can see empty FAT32 and ext3 partitions I made
[08:52] <dasrot> ?
[08:52] <soho> fuffe; editing movies cannot be done with ffmpeg afaik
[08:52] <dasrot> I made them in GPart... but cant see them
[08:52] <clever> lemonsCC one i made for accessing mythtv
[08:52] <ikonia> dasrot: mount them
[08:52] <lemonsCC> cool
[08:53] <dasrot> is there a program to do that... or do I have to do it in terminal
[08:53] <dasrot> this is my first time with linux
[08:53] <kyle999999999999> the reason i put this on my computer is cos i've heard too many storys about microsoft and i didn't like what i heard
[08:53] <fuffe> soho, ok but with any FOSS video editing software then
[08:53] <kyle999999999999> so i put this on
[08:53] <ikonia> !mount >dasrot
[08:53] <dyrne> dasrot: did you format them? sudo fdisk -l  show them?
[08:53] <kyle999999999999> and now my head hurts lol
[08:53] <soho> fuffe; take a look at the program avidemux
[08:53] <fuffe> what software would that be?
[08:53] <dasrot> yes... shows up in sudo fdisk -l
[08:53] <fuffe> ok
[08:53] <ikonia> kyle999999999999: don't listen to stories - believe what you know
[08:53] <ikonia> !mount >dasrot
[08:53] <lemonsCC> kyle999999999999: freespire is an easy linux distro to use
[08:53] <lemonsCC> !freespire
[08:53] <dasrot> k
[08:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about freespire - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:54] <lemonsCC> darn it ubotu!!!
[08:54] <fuffe> soho, can you edit google videos with it?
[08:54] <gordonjcp> soho: you can trim videos; that's about it.
[08:54] <hume> i got a problem with an encrypted partition in feisty - I am not prompted to type passphrase during boot - anyone knows what to do?
[08:54] <arkanjul> how well do ubuntu and mandriva stack up for stability, speed, and ease of use?
[08:54] <ikonia> hume: fesity questions in #ubuntu+1
[08:54] <dasrot> like... !mount /dev/hda5 ?
[08:54] <Gigi> why some software such amule or skype doesn't minimice to tray like it did on 6.06? What can I do?
[08:54] <soho> fuffe; which codec do googlevideos use?
[08:54] <IcemanV9> hume:  ask in #ubuntu+1 please :)
[08:54] <ikonia> !mount >dasrot
[08:54] <soho> gordonjcp; yes
[08:54] <duckdown> Hi all. Sorry, feel like a dork for asking this, but I can't seem to make wget download an entire directory anymore.  A friend uploaded a bunch of audio files to a folder for me in a URL like http://www.test.com/myfiles/audio and I have tried 'wget http://www.test.com/myfiles/audio' but the stupid thing just keeps downloading a little index.html file and nothing else!  I tried doing 'wget (url)/*.mp3' and it says Wildcards not suppor
[08:55] <ikonia> Gigi: live with it
[08:55] <dasrot> well I typed in !mount
[08:55] <duckdown> ted!  Help!
[08:55] <fuffe> soho, they use their own, I believe
[08:55] <ikonia> dasrot: read the pm
[08:55] <ikonia> !mount >dasrot
[08:55] <Gigi> lol\
[08:55] <dasrot> then a bunch of stuff I dont under stand comes up
[08:55] <PopcornAlchemist> #list
[08:55] <shatrat> arkanjul, they're both linux.  stability is going to depend on what applications and hardware you have more than the distro.  as for ease of use, I think ubuntu is about the easiest out there right now.
[08:55] <dasrot> oh I see
[08:55] <ikonia> dasrot: read the stuff that comes up
[08:55] <Euphoria_> hi all
[08:55] <sharperguy> @42
[08:56] <fuffe> http://video.google.com/playerdownload
[08:56] <Euphoria_> im have just one question: im have a 2GB memory, how much is good swap memory?
[08:56] <dasrot> /dev/hda6 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
[08:56] <soho> fuffe; i don't know exactly, maybe you have to convert the video before you can edit it
[08:56] <lemonsCC> !offtopic
[08:56] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[08:56] <dasrot> not sure what that means
[08:56] <ikonia> Euphoria_: 2.5gb
[08:56] <ikonia> Euphoria_: 3gb
[08:56] <arkanjul> shatrat so - are the issues folks are having with beryl due to low end hardware?  I have a p4 3ghz 2 gig system with 256M ATI x1600 card - so I should be able to handle the requirements easily right?
[08:56] <dasrot> and I used GParted
[08:56] <ikonia> dasrot: that means the /dev/hda6 is ext3 and mounted on /
[08:57] <dyrne> Euphoria_: if its a lappy and you like hibernate i usually recommend swap = ram  but i rarely to it myself.
[08:57] <Euphoria_> 4ikonia, thx soo much, in contiue my install
[08:57] <shatrat> arkanjul, well, the ati proprietary drivers are pretty far behind the times compared to nvidia or open source, so it would be a bit of a hassle getting it going on your setup
[08:57] <ikonia> Euphoria_: no problem
[08:57] <Euphoria_> dyrne, ok thx
[08:57] <arkanjul> hmmm - so i should hook up the open source ati drivers?
[08:57] <dasrot> I need to mount /hda3 and 4
[08:58] <dasrot> !mount doesnt mention either
[08:58] <ubotu> mount: Tools for mounting and manipulating filesystems. In component main, is required. Version 2.12r-11ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 179 kB, installed size 400 kB
[08:58] <Norf-ubu> hi, small niggle, I have an SB Live 5.1 card installed, yet the mixer shows 2 devices, 1) SB Live 5.1 (Alsa) and 2) Sigmatel - my question is, how do I disable the sigmatel ?
[08:58] <shatrat> arkanjul, there are plenty of guides though, I got beryl going on an ati card in about an hour
[08:58] <kyle999999999999> hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, this is hard
[08:58] <arkanjul> on which version on linux
[08:58] <ikonia> dasrot: mount $device_file $mount_point
[08:59] <dasrot> oh dear god
[08:59] <ikonia> dasrot: mount /dev/sda5 /tmp for example
[08:59] <arkanjul> LOL - how do you PM someone?
[08:59] <dyrne> kyle999999999999: what is? :)
[08:59] <dasrot> so... /tmp is what I want to call it?
[08:59] <Sapristi> Hi folks. I'm fiddling around with a vnc-contact from a client to a server. Ubuntu on both. I haven't started up anything special on the server, the command vncviewer 192.168.1.102:1 kicks up a login-screen just fine on the client.  But, when I boot  the server in *console mode* I get a nasty grey screen (the only thing not running on the server is gdm). I realize I have to start something...
[08:59] <Sapristi> ...else on the server - but what?
[08:59] <ikonia> kyle999999999999: any chance you can shorten your nick
[08:59] <dasrot> or does that have to be something specific
[08:59] <shatrat> arkanjul, depends on your client I guess. In xchat you can right click their name or use /msg personsnick message text here
[08:59] <ikonia> dasrot: you can call the mount point what you want
[08:59] <ikonia> dasrot: you call it where you want to mount it
[08:59] <dasrot> k
[08:59] <FakeOutdoorsman> i need to move 40 gigs of jpg files from server A to server B.  I was thinking of using rsync.  Any ideas/suggestions?
[08:59] <dasrot> ill give it a whirl
[08:59] <ikonia> FakeOutdoorsman: sounds good
[08:59] <EmxBA> what's an easiest way to make a online radio that'll stream music on myip:someport?
[09:00] <kyleloveslinux> changed it
[09:00] <ikonia> kyleloveslinux: a little better
[09:00] <ikonia> kyleloveslinux: thank you
[09:00] <Sapristi> And folks, I *do* want to run the server in console mode. And I want a graphical UI to it on the client...
[09:00] <IcemanV9> FakeOutdoorsman: perfect
[09:00] <dasrot> mount: only root can do that
[09:00] <ikonia> dasrot: use sudo
[09:00] <dasrot> k
[09:00] <ikonia> Sapristi: whats the problem then
[09:01] <eagles0513875> i just installed the proprietary linux ati driver from my radeon 200m xpress but for some reason when i do glxinfo   under the mesa3d section it still says that the open gl is indirect
[09:01] <yell0w> EmxBA, icecast
[09:01] <htmljunkie> have web dev questions? join #webdiner
[09:01] <eagles0513875> !ati
[09:01] <dasrot> says my mount point does not exist
[09:01] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:01] <Sapristi> The problem is the grey scren when I issue the vncviewr-command to the server in console mode
[09:01] <ikonia> dasrot: you have to make it
[09:01] <arkanjul> Shatrat it says I IM'd you - but did you get it?
[09:01] <EmxBA> ok, yell0w
[09:01] <kyleloveslinux> well i'm reading these instructions but i'm not getting it, maybe i'm just think?  on windows u would just look for the driver and install it and done
[09:01] <slippyr4> dasrot: a mount point is just an empty directory. use mkdir or sudo mkdir
[09:01] <yell0w> EmxBA,  or shoutcast
[09:02] <ikonia> htmljunkie: why advertise that fact - its nothing to do with ubuntu and we are not talking about web development
[09:02] <dasrot> k
[09:02] <Sapristi> ikonia: The vncviewer works fine if gdm is running on the server - but it doesn't when the server is in console mode
[09:02] <FakeOutdoorsman> ok.  rsync it is.  thanks for the input.
[09:02] <ikonia> Sapristi: as it has nothing to export ?
[09:02] <apalmieri> hello folks
[09:02] <shatrat> arkanjul, nope, I think you need to register to do that on freenode. just join #shatrat
[09:02] <apalmieri> whats the best anti-virus for an Ubuntu workstation?
[09:02] <dasrot> hmmm
[09:02] <apalmieri> im having a hell of a time getting kaspersky to work on it
[09:02] <shatrat> arkanjul, or #ubuntu-effects if it is about compiz or beryl or what hve you
[09:02] <yell0w> EmxBA, let me know if it works for you, i got icecast + darkice working together, but then stuck at mixer part
[09:03] <dasrot> heres what I typed... not sure if it even did anything
[09:03] <dasrot> sudo mkdir /FAT
[09:03] <apalmieri> anyone got kaspersky to work on Ubuntu?
[09:03] <dasrot> sudo mount /dev/hda3 /FAT
[09:03] <Sapristi> ikonia: Might be - but that's what I'm trying to figure out. You see - I read a post that said that you don't have to have an X-session running on the server, in order to get the GUI on the client.
[09:03] <shatrat> apalmieri, just so you know, you dont need an anti-virus unless youre scanning emails on an email server or something.  theres not much to scan for for linux
[09:03] <ikonia> Sapristi: yeah you should be right on that
[09:03] <apalmieri> shatrat: our linux workstations live with another XP/2000 workstations
[09:03] <apalmieri> we need an anti-virus.
[09:04] <Pici> !virus
[09:04] <ubotu> A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[09:04] <shatrat> apalmieri, well...the xp and win2k workstations need AV, why run it on the ubuntu workstation?
[09:04] <lmosher> I'm in a very loud environment right now and I'm trying to watch a movie but I can't hear it. Both my PCM and main volume are all the way up, as well as in mplayer. Any way to boost the audio further?
[09:04] <apalmieri> to avoid malware and other maliscious stuff on the ubuntu box
[09:05] <Sapristi> ikonia: Hope so :) But, I don't get a GUI across - just a nasty grey screen when gdm is taken away from rc2.d. So I wonder, should there be some other daemons running on the server?
[09:05] <Spartacus> shatrat, can you check your messages? I wanted to see if a card would work
[09:05] <shatrat> Spartacus, you need to register to PM people on freenode, check #ubuntu-effects or #shatrat
[09:05] <ikonia> Sapristi: the fact that it only wokrs when gdm is running suggests its trying to export a running display rather than export and run one on your local display
[09:05] <ikonia> if you see what I mean
[09:05] <dasrot> ok... it says its mounted
[09:05] <Spartacus> ah, registered on another server :/
[09:05] <Spartacus> shatrat, http://cgi.ebay.com/EVGA-Geforce-6200-256-AGP-Nvidia-almost-new-No-Res_W0QQitemZ330092087401QQihZ014QQcategoryZ40161QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem , would this work?
[09:06] <dasrot> aha... i see
[09:06] <Gigi> how can I install an additional desktop enviorement and how can I select one or other?
[09:06] <kyleloveslinux> my eyes are killing me, my head is starting to hurt
[09:06] <ikonia> Gigi: use apt to installl
[09:06] <Sapristi> ikonia: Yeah, I kinda get you. What should I do about it? Any settings I can fiddle with?
[09:06] <shatrat> Spartacus, for gaming it would be a little slow on newer games, it would work though.
[09:06] <dyrne> Gigi: click 'sessions' button at login screen
[09:06] <Spartacus> okay, thanks
[09:06] <Spartacus> can run all I need
[09:06] <shatrat> Spartacus, for the price it would be ok
[09:06] <dasrot> ikonia: thanks
[09:06] <Spartacus> thanks for your help
[09:07] <Gigi> ikonia thanks
[09:07] <kyleloveslinux> should i just take out my graphics card and use the intergrated one?
[09:07] <kyleloveslinux> will that solve it?
[09:07] <lmosher> I'm in a very loud environment right now and I'm trying to watch a movie but I can't hear it. Both my PCM and main volume are all the way up, as well as in mplayer. Any way to boost the audio further?
[09:07] <apalmieri> has anyone ever run kasspersky onubuntu?
[09:08] <h1st0> lmosher: there is an external amplifier setting in alsamixer.  I believe
[09:08] <gus> u dont need antivirus in ubuntu apalmieri
[09:08] <hokiepoker> "ooo-boon-too"? or "you-bun-tu"?
[09:08] <kyleloveslinux> i'll try it anyway
[09:08] <bruenig> hokiepoker, the first one
[09:08] <apalmieri> gus: no virus for linux?
[09:08] <gus> apalmieri, only if you want to scan mails that go to windows boxes
[09:08] <bruenig> or actually, ooo bun to
[09:08] <bruenig> too*
[09:08] <hokiepoker> kay, thats what i thought
[09:08] <hokiepoker> i correct people all the time ;)
[09:09] <gus> apalmieri, no as u know it from winblows
[09:09] <apalmieri> gus: well be working with .docs that will be sent to win boxes
[09:09] <apalmieri> win boxes have already trend officescan
[09:09] <Gigi> ikonia sudo apt-get install (what more)
[09:09] <lmosher> h1st0, ALl I see is pcm and main when I run alsamixer :(
[09:09] <gus> apalmieri, ok, but you dont need antivirus to protect a linux box
[09:09] <CattyNebulart> I have a question, how would you compile a 32 bit librarby on a 64 bit machine? I'm assuming that I would use the '--target=' option of configure, but the details escape me, such as just what string to use as the target. Of course I might just be completly on the wrong track.
[09:10] <ikonia> gigi the package name
[09:10] <ikonia> CattyNebulart: no - you'd need to cross-compile x86 is a different arch than x86_^4
[09:10] <Gigi> ikonia and how I know the name, what names of desktops there are?
[09:10] <ikonia> Gigi: you search for it
[09:10] <h1st0> lmosher: hrm... dunno
[09:10] <Gigi> ikonia is too install other desktop such Gnome
[09:10] <ikonia> Gigi: you search the packge list
[09:10] <dasrot> is there anyway to share an external harddrive over the network that is attatched to an winxp machine?
[09:10] <Kodabeans> hi everyone
[09:11] <wayne_> can anyone tell me how to get the current open programs to show back up on the taskbar at the bottom of the screen in gnome?
[09:11] <Gigi> ikonia but how can I search something if I don'tknow the name
[09:11] <h1st0> dasrot: yes
[09:11] <dasrot> or should I worry about that later when my linux skills dont suck so much
[09:11] <ikonia> Gigi: browse
[09:11] <CattyNebulart> ikonia isn't speifing the target crosscompiling?
[09:11] <h1st0> dasrot: share the drive in windows then access it in linux as that what you trying to do?
[09:11] <ikonia> CattyNebulart: no
[09:11] <htmljunkie> sorry to spam all
[09:11] <dasrot> yup
[09:11] <Kodabeans> i'm new to linux. does anyone know where I can get drivers for an Acer Aspire 1360?
[09:11] <ikonia> CattyNebulart: there is much more to it than that
[09:11] <gus> dasrot, u can use samba for that
[09:11] <dyrne> Kodabeans: is that a laptop?
[09:11] <Kodabeans> yes
[09:11] <h1st0> dasrot: well first share hte drive in windows.  Just like you normally would.  Then to access it in linux you need to enable samba.
[09:11] <dyrne> Kodabeans: drivers for what?
[09:12] <dasrot> k
[09:12] <h1st0> !samba | dasrot
[09:12] <ubotu> dasrot: 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
[09:12] <Kodabeans> Acer Aspire 1360. It's a laptop
[09:12] <dasrot> cool
[09:12] <dasrot> thx
[09:12] <Kodabeans> I've been having trouble finding the drivers i need/where to find them
[09:12] <dasrot> and I can only read/write to FAT32 and ext#?
[09:13] <shatrat> Kodabeans, what drivers? video? wireless?
[09:13] <gus> Kodabeans, drivers for what ?
[09:13] <h1st0> Kodabeans: what specific hardware do you want drivers for?
[09:13] <dasrot> actually.... I was wondering if I could format like 100+ GB in FAT32 and still be able to see it in winxp... is that possible?
[09:13] <Kodabeans> Video card is priority.
[09:13] <h1st0> Kodabeans: you can lspci  to show you what type of hardware is in the machine.  Then search for each driver.  however, if somethign is working now you don't need a driver.  Many drivers are already present.
[09:13] <CattyNebulart> dasrot: yes.
[09:13] <ikonia> dasrot: I think its limited to 32 gig on fat32
[09:13] <h1st0> Kodabeans: lspci | grep VGA
[09:13] <ikonia> or something small like that
[09:14] <dasrot> thats what I thought too
[09:14] <CattyNebulart> dasrot: but fat 32 has an uper limit to it's size I forgot what it is though.
[09:14] <dasrot> was wondering if thats the max it could read... or max it could format too
[09:14] <h1st0> dasrot: yeah you could even have a ext3 partition shared via samba and should be able to write to it with windows xp.
[09:14] <ikonia> CattyNebulart: its either 16 or 8
[09:14] <Nalleman> how can I check what hardware components I have in my computer? :)
[09:14] <dasrot> k
[09:14] <ikonia> dasrot: its 8 or 16 gig
[09:14] <h1st0> Nalleman: lspci
[09:14] <gus> Nalleman, lspci
[09:14] <ikonia> Nalleman: open the lid
[09:14] <dasrot> I think its 32
[09:14] <gus> jeje
[09:14] <ikonia> dasrot: its not that big
[09:14] <dasrot> o
[09:14] <shatrat> dasrot, are you talking abouta storage driver?  fat32 is real bad.  I would recommend using ext3 and then using the windows ext driver from fs-driver.org to read it in windows
[09:15] <wayne_> can anyone tell me how to get the current open programs to show back up on the taskbar at the bottom of the screen in gnome?
[09:15] <dasrot> ok
[09:15] <h1st0> shatrat: he doesn't even need that.
[09:15] <ray_> anyone have any idea why XMMS won't play mp3's over a network?
[09:15] <Nalleman> thanx ikonia , h1st0 amd gus
[09:15] <h1st0> dasrot: you don't need to do that.
[09:15] <gus> np
[09:15] <dasrot> so its better to go ext3 than ntfs?
[09:15] <gus> dasrot, for sure
[09:15] <ikonia> dasrot: thats personal taste
[09:15] <Nalleman> especially ikonia.. ;)
[09:15] <h1st0> dasrot: just create he ext3 partition and then share it with samba windows should be able to write with it just like a network drive.
[09:15] <Tomcat_> wayne_: Right click, Add to Panel, "Window List"
[09:15] <dasrot> k
[09:15] <bobd> ;quit
[09:16] <kupesoft> I've set up an IP-masquerading firewall for device br0 which is a network bridge between eth1 (ethernet card attached to a hub) and ath0 (wireless access point). Everything works well except clients attached to eth1 cannot communicate (ping fails) with clients attached to ath0. The gateway can talk to both wired and wireless clients. Is this a bridging issue or a firewall issue?
[09:16] <dasrot> cause I want my linux machine to be a downloader... then I want to share my stuff with xp..if that makes sense
[09:16] <h1st0> dasrot: yeah here let me explain my setup.
[09:16] <dasrot> like to xbox 360
[09:16] <ikonia> dasrot: why not make xp just download
[09:16] <ikonia> then you don't need to share
[09:16] <gus> kupesoft, same subnet ?
[09:16] <dasrot> hmmm
[09:16] <dasrot> I could do that
[09:16] <ikonia> dasrot: why make it hard
[09:17] <h1st0> dasrot: I have a server with /home/public directory that I made.  Then I share the /home/public directory to everyone with samba.  Any one on my network can write and read to that directory.
[09:17] <dasrot> got two computers and wanted to try out linux on one
[09:17] <ikonia> dasrot: just use XP to download
[09:17] <ikonia> dasrot: keep it simple
[09:17] <kupesoft> gus: Yes, same subnet.
[09:17] <dasrot> i heard linux was safer
[09:17] <ikonia> dasrot: nope
[09:17] <dasrot> not true?
[09:17] <h1st0> dasrot: samba is simple here let me get you a link
[09:17] <docta_v> i'm having some trouble with an upgrade of mysql
[09:17] <ray_> how do I get rythmbox to play mp3?
[09:17] <CattyNebulart> dasrot: according to wikipedia the maximum size of fat 32 is around 120 GB, but some microsoft tools don't work beyond 32 GB.
[09:17] <dasrot> o
[09:17] <dasrot> ok
[09:17] <dasrot> thx
[09:17] <docta_v> the init script is failing to start which is causing the package to fail to install cleanly
[09:18] <ikonia> ahhh it was 32gigi - I though it was less
[09:18] <docta_v> how can i tell what init script the package is trying to run?
[09:18] <ikonia> docta_v: it tell you at startup whats running
[09:18] <gus> kupesoft, maybe u need to set up a gateway but then u will need to have different subnets
[09:18] <dasrot> this may sound stupid.. but linux wont download torrents any faster?
[09:18] <CattyNebulart> so how do you crosscompile if it's more than just specifing a new target?
[09:18] <ikonia> dasrot: nope
[09:18] <dasrot> damn
[09:19] <gus> hah
[09:19] <ikonia> CattyNebulart: you need to setup a compatible envionment
[09:19] <docta_v> ikonia: the only thing i can find is this: "invoke-rc.d: initscript mysql, action "start" failed."
[09:19] <ikonia> docta_v: so the mysql startup script is failing
[09:19] <Kodabeans> I tried lspci | grep VGA. Here is what it said: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. S3 Unichrome Pro VGA Adapter (rev 01)
[09:19] <CattyNebulart> ikonia: you mean a 32 bit chroot?
[09:19] <ikonia> CattyNebulart: no
[09:19] <h1st0> dasrot: install samba and smbfs then follow these instructions to let everyone read/write on the network http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_share_public_folders_with_read.2Fwrite_permissions_.28Authentication.3DNo.29
[09:19] <Kodabeans> Should I google for that driver for linux?
[09:19] <ikonia> Kodabeans: if you want to
[09:19] <ratbert90> is there a way to force quanta to upload to a sftp when I hit save?
[09:19] <h1st0> dasrot: well it will in some instances depends on your setup
[09:20] <docta_v> right but which one? in /etc/init.d there is a mysql, mysql-ndb, mysql-ndb-mgm, mysql.server
[09:20] <h1st0> ikonia: it would over default xp because of QOS
[09:20] <ikonia> docta_v: mysql.server
[09:20] <ikonia> h1st0: it would what ?
[09:20] <wayne_> Tomcat_ thanks for the info also how do i get this monitor to work at 70hz instead of 85hz?
[09:20] <docta_v> ikonia: cool thanks... i'll start with that one
[09:20] <h1st0> ikonia: linux would download faster versus a default xp install.
[09:20] <ikonia> h1st0: no it wouldn't
[09:20] <h1st0> ikonia: because of microsofts qos
[09:20] <shatrat> Kodabeans, I think the S3 driver is installed by default and is open source
[09:20] <ikonia> nah
[09:20] <h1st0> ikonia: yes it does
[09:21] <shatrat> Kodabeans, are you having trouble with quality or resolution or what?
[09:21] <ikonia> I disagree
[09:21] <Faithful> I have 2 nics in a box and everytime it boots it seems it is pot luck which is eth0 and which is eth1 I have set them in /etc/iftab as well but this only achieves jamming them up if they are detected wrong in the first place.
[09:21] <h1st0> ikonia: their qos protocol blows and ports are limited severly in xp
[09:21] <ikonia> h1st0: I still disagree
[09:21] <h1st0> ikonia: okay
[09:21] <ikonia> h1st0: you can argue anything - linux has weaker driver support so traffic flow is worse etc etc etc
[09:21] <ikonia> h1st0: you won't see anything to the naked eye
[09:21] <shatrat> ikonia, driver support for NICs?
[09:21] <ikonia> in my opinion
[09:21] <h1st0> ikonia: I can notice a difference in my box.
[09:21] <ikonia> shatrat: yup
[09:22] <shatrat> poppycock
[09:22] <ikonia> shatrat: I know - I'm trying to suggest an argumentative point of view
[09:22] <axa-axa> I got DVD ISO file of about 6.2 GB!? Is there a DVD larger than 4.7 GB?
[09:22] <shatrat> so it would seem
[09:22] <xyverz> yes
[09:22] <h1st0> axa-axa: yes dual layer
[09:22] <xyverz> axa-axa: dual layer
[09:22] <dasrot> bah.... bittornado doesnt want to save to those partitions I mounted
[09:22] <dasrot> says couldnt allocate dir
[09:22] <h1st0> dasrot: what type of partition is it?
[09:22] <dasrot> ext3
[09:22] <shatrat> axa-axa, theyre about a buck a piece for blanks though, you can shrink it if its a video dvd using something like k9copy
[09:22] <ikonia> dasrot: just use your XP install as thats what you're going to view it from - why make it hard
[09:23] <h1st0> dasrot: yeah you can't write to a partition you mounted you have to share it as a network resource follow the instructions I sent you.
[09:23] <axa-axa> can ordinary DVD Writer write and read to it?
[09:23] <axa-axa> It's not video.
[09:23] <h1st0> axa-axa: read yes write no
[09:23] <dasrot> ok
[09:23] <apol> hi, I'm installing feisty and when I'm installing it, at the prepare mountpoints step, it tells me "invalid mount point" and doesn't let me continue
[09:23] <h1st0> axa-axa: you need a dual layer burner to write teh image.
[09:23] <apol> any idea about it?
[09:23] <xyverz> axa-axa: if you have a dual-layer burner, yes, you can write it.
[09:23] <dasrot> any reason to keep ubuntu then?
[09:23] <h1st0> axa-axa: but in linux you don't have to write the iso to use it.  You can mount iso's
[09:23] <ikonia> apol: join #ubuntu+1 for fesity beta questions
[09:23] <ikonia> dasrot: thats up to you
[09:24] <h1st0> dasrot: yeah if you woul dlisten but oh well.
[09:24] <axa-axa> Thanks for answers :)
[09:24] <CattyNebulart> ikona: ok google doesn't seem o be able to help me, what else do I need to setup to crosscompile (besides 32 bit libraries, all of the ones I need I think are installed)
[09:24] <ikonia> CattyNebulart: you don't even need the 32bit libs - thats the point of cross-compiling
[09:24] <ikonia> CattyNebulart: you do need a copmiler thats cross-compatible though
[09:24] <h1st0> dasrot: you can easily accomplish what you wanted to do.  Have one machine (linux) download to lets say /home/share and then share that folder over the network so that the XP machine can read and write it.
[09:25] <CattyNebulart> ikona: isn't gcc?
[09:25] <ikonia> h1st0: his XP machine is on the same box
[09:25] <ikonia> CattyNebulart: if its built with multi-lib -yes
[09:25] <ikonia> CattyNebulart: it can be
[09:25] <ikonia> CattyNebulart: it isn't normally though
[09:25] <h1st0> ikonia: well if you xp machine is on the same box then your best bet is to create a shared fat32 partition.
[09:25] <ikonia> my gcc is multilib
[09:25] <h1st0> dasrot: ^^^^^^^
[09:25] <dasrot> welll I mean if its gonna be more of a hastle...
[09:25] <ikonia> h1st0: yup - thats why I said he may as well just let XP do the downloading so he doesn't have to reboot to watch them
[09:26] <h1st0> dasrot: If you are daul booting that is different then you would want a fat32 partition so that both operating systems could read and write.
[09:26] <shatrat> ext3 > fat32
[09:26] <h1st0> ikonia: he originaly said he had two computer one would be linux.  I think he is confused
[09:26] <ikonia> h1st0: perhaps I missunderstood
[09:27] <ikonia> either way - he may as well just use XP
[09:27] <ikonia> as thats what he wants
[09:27] <thunter> hello all. I'm trying to install amarok, but I'm getting errors with python packages. can someone help me out? more info: http://pastebin.ca/373464
[09:27] <ax3> there any terminal editors that color code ruby/php syntax ?
[09:28] <ikonia> ax3: vim has it
[09:28] <ikonia> ax3: so does emacs
[09:28] <ax3> sweet
[09:28] <ax3> im using nano
[09:28] <ax3> it's black and white right now lol
[09:28] <Jrabbit> ax3: Gedit does too XD
[09:28] <ax3> im on campus, not at home, need something i can use remotely
[09:28] <Jrabbit> ax3: When you save it
[09:28] <h1st0> vim is a pita
[09:28] <CattyNebulart> thunter: some nessesary packages don't exist...
[09:28] <ikonia> h1st0: not a fan
[09:29] <CattyNebulart> thunter: try 'apt-get update'
[09:29] <h1st0> ikonia: hell no who ever designed that controll scheme way back in the day was mental.  j and k etc.. for scrolling.
[09:29] <MybEvil_> When I open gaim, and sign it, it automatically closes..
[09:29] <ikonia> h1st0: I love it, I suppose its just what you're used to
[09:29] <ikonia> 10 years - and I can't live with out it
[09:29] <thunter> CattyNebulart, just did, and no change.
[09:29] <ikonia> CattyNebulart: that error doesn't mean packages don't exist
[09:30] <ikonia> thunter: the problem is a conflicting python script shared in 2 packages.
[09:30] <thunter> ikonia, that's what I suspected. how do I fix it?
[09:30] <Faithful> thunter: with stuff like that it is usually a repositories issue. Usually it is because you have a version of the failed dependancy on your system already which is newer / different.  I get around it usually by uninstalling the failed dep if it exists. apt-get update always
[09:30] <ikonia> thunter: clear out the .dep in /var/cache and re-try looks like it just panic'd unpacking it
[09:31] <MybEvil_> When I open gaim, and sign it, it automatically closes, anyone know why?
[09:31] <socialdisorder> whats the best way for me to allow read and write on ntfs drives?
[09:31] <h1st0> ikonia: also I don't see vim color coding a php file.
[09:31] <ikonia> socialdisorder: ntfs write support is in beta
[09:31] <ikonia> h1st0: you have to install syntax maps
[09:31] <thunter> ikonia, i've removed that .deb out of the cache a few times (and also tried different repo mirrors to redownload from; using apt-get update) and still get the same problem.
[09:31] <socialdisorder> i know but would like to try it
[09:31] <ikonia> thunter: try clearing down the whole dir
[09:31] <thunter> ok
[09:31] <ikonia> socialdisorder: then try it
[09:32] <socialdisorder> is ntfs-3g the only way?
[09:32] <h1st0> !ntfs3g | socialdisorder
[09:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfs3g - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:32] <h1st0> !ntfs-3g
[09:32] <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. Installation instructions at http://lunapark6.com/?p=1710 (Dapper) and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009/ (Edgy)
[09:32] <socialdisorder> thought so, its just that there website is down
[09:32] <helpmeman> how do i install my graphic card in this ubuntu thing???  the default driver is killing my eyes
[09:32] <CattyNebulart> thunter: also worth trying is 'apt-get install python-sip4' which will tell you what it will remove to install it.
[09:32] <dasrot> well thanks for your help guys
[09:32] <Faithful> thunter: do you have a version of the failed dep already installed?
[09:32] <h1st0> helpmeman: what type of card do you have?

[09:45] <gilligan_> I am having some issues with grub which can't see the RAID device I guess.. can't boot
[09:45] <HolyGoat> yell0w: I checked it out for about 30 minutes, spent 15 minutes on setting up an internet connection, couldn't use the Nero cd that was provided (because it didn't handle 64 bits), it didn't provide my sound card, so I installed (after clicking away 3 warning popups) a freeware ISO burner, downloaded a Linux image and moved on.
[09:45] <pi_> someone can help me?

[10:07] <Gigi> Heyguy yeah, I know!  It's very unfair!!!!!!!!!
[10:07] <HeyGuy> Gigi, if you deny the M$ EULA it's in your right to get your money back
[10:07] <AlexC_> Morning all,
[10:07] <HeyGuy> so go complain!
[10:08] <HeyGuy> :)
[10:08] <Gigi> HeyGuy how I do that?
[10:08] <isofunk> Hi
[10:08] <isofunk> you tell me ;)
[10:08] <AlexC_> Hi,
[10:08] <Gigi> HeyGuy really I can get those bucks on the trash back?
[10:08] <HeyGuy> Gigi, yes
[10:08] <shatrat> Gigi, well, was the pc made by Compusa or is it an HP or something?  talk to the manufacturer.  People have gotten their money back from Dell, its worth a try
[10:09] <Gigi> shatrat is a Gateway
[10:09] <HeyGuy> It's your legal right
[10:09] <AlexC_> Gigi: you can legally get a refund. It is stated in the Legal EULA that comes with Windows XP/Vista. The law is on _your_ side,
[10:09] <mfienen> With network-manager-gnome, how do I get it to connect to networks?  I installed the package, and the icon shows up in the tray after restarting, but so does my other network icon, and I don't see any way to configure it beyond enabling or disabling it
[10:10] <dyrne> Gigi: of course bureaucracy is on theirs
[10:10] <Gigi> cool, I find it out how to do it
[10:10] <AlexC_> Gigi: if they refuse, fight and don't give up. You will get it if you fight. If they say it comes bundled with the laptop then say "software bundling is illegal so I could sue you over that"
[10:10] <HeyGuy> how much does a vista OEM stand in? $100-200?
[10:10] <AlexC_> HeyGuy: roughly yes,
[10:10] <kelsin> you need to remove the interfaces from /etc/network/interfaces that you want network manage to manage
[10:10] <AlexC_> Gigi: laptop or desktop, sorry I assumed laptop :P
[10:10] <Faithful> shey: browseable = no in printers section
[10:10] <shatrat> HeyGuy, keep in mind that the copy you got was subsidised by adware preinstalled and that you didnt get a full install disk, you probably wont get that much back if you get any at all
[10:11] <shey> =o
[10:11] <Gigi> AlexC_ desktop :P I'm bored of laptops :P
[10:11] <AlexC_> Gigi: hehe,
[10:11] <sayers> How come when I minimize stuff it doesn't go into the system tray. XChat is known to do that
[10:11] <kelsin> mfienen: for exmaple, I removed from /etc/network/interfaces my eth1 (my wireless card) and eth0 (my ethernet) but left lo (the loopback device)
[10:11] <Gigi> thanks! never thought that I could refund M$ junk
[10:11] <HeyGuy> shatrat, that doesn't matter
[10:11] <maax> good evening is someone from launchpad there ?
[10:11] <AlexC_> sayers: applications minimize to the window tray, only a few apps go to system tray, Gaim for example
[10:11] <mfienen> okay
[10:12] <mfienen> I'll try that out
[10:12] <mfienen> Their documentation was sorta crappy
[10:12] <shatrat> HeyGuy, well, they can only refund what was paid for it, and I guarantee that the full retail price wasnt charged for the vista cd key that went on your machine
[10:12] <kelsin> mfienen: agreed :)
[10:12] <eat_books> hey. can anyone please help me install screenlets?
[10:12] <sayers> AlexC_ Yes. but XChat i thought did
[10:12] <Gigi> sayers click on add to pannel, then add Windows List
[10:12] <AlexC_> sayers: nope, never done it for me
[10:13] <Gigi> sayers, I mean, right click on the bar and then select Add to panel... and select Windows List
[10:13] <HeyGuy> shatrat, they can refund what it they paid for it and what they got form 3. party software
[10:13] <AlexC_> HeyGuy: no they can;t
[10:13] <mfienen> What about wlan0?  Is that associated with the wireless LAN connection too?
[10:13] <HeyGuy> AlexC_,  after danish law they can ;)
[10:13] <sayers> okay
[10:13] <HeyGuy> or shall
[10:13] <Williams1> hello
[10:13] <shey> FaithfulL: still nothing.
[10:13] <Gigi> HeyGuy would be awesome for me, this pc came with 3 months office 3 months mcaffee... a lot of junk more and of course... Vista Home Premium
[10:14] <AlexC_> HeyGuy: Take Dell for example. They have a closed deal with Microsoft so they get a Vista license for far less than we can. Dell can not tell us what they pay for it, because it's against the contract they made with Microsoft. So, as they can not give you a price for what they paid - you get the price of a full OEM
[10:14] <Williams1> MODERATORS ARE WANTED IN EXOTICS ADULT FORUM :::: http://exotics.ezbbforum.com
[10:14] <AlexC_> HeyGuy: if they say "Well give you $10, that's what we paid" ... they will get in big trouble with Microsoft
[10:14] <AlexC_> s/well/we'll
[10:15] <AlexC_> Gigi: Home Premium hey ... could get quite a refund for that! Go for it! go fight!
[10:15] <Gigi> AlexC cool :D then I'll buy 2 extra DDR2 Rams... to make 5 (I can do up to 8... it comes with 8slots... lol)
[10:15] <HeyGuy> AlexC_, yes, but they cant only pay 50% because 4. party software "paid" for the rest
[10:16] <HeyGuy> 3.*
[10:16] <texas_john> alexc_: as we say in texas: If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop diggin'.
[10:16] <AlexC_> HeyGuy: the cost of a vista license is included in the laptop, if it's included in the price you get the price refunded.
[10:16] <AlexC_> s/laptop/computer

[10:22] <cables> Way back when, when I installed Edgy, I unfortunately used Automatix. If I use the Automatix uninstaller to reverse my changes and then remove Automatix, will my system be as good as new?
[10:22] <linux_kid> How Do I mount /dev/sda1 ????????
[10:22] <blind> No errors except font errors.
[10:22] <blind> linux_kid: sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1
[10:22] <cafuego_> they question marks have blinded me!
[10:22] <Zoolie> hello all
[10:22] <AlexC_> Hi,
[10:22] <h1st0> !mount | linux_kid
[10:22] <ubotu> linux_kid: 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
[10:22] <dyrne> linux_kid: assuming its not ntfs
[10:22] <ompaul> cables, well you saw how good it installed - work out how good it nmight be at cleaning up after itself from that :)
[10:22] <linux_kid> dyrne: it is ntfs
[10:23] <AlexC_> !ntfs | linux_kid
[10:23] <ubotu> linux_kid: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[10:23] <h1st0> linux_kid: but basically sudo mount /dev/sda1 /home/linux_kid/mount or whever you want it.
[10:23] <ompaul> AlexC_, use >
[10:23] <linux_kid> dyrne: but I only need read only
[10:23] <dyrne> linux_kid: sudo mkdir /media/sda1 && mount -o umask=000 /dev/sda1 /media/sda1
[10:23] <Zoolie> anyone can send a link to the list of the feisty fawn's new features? not tha launchpad one,maybe one that i can send to a windows fan to tell him what the newest ubuntu knows.
[10:23] <cables> ompaul, arrghh. What's the best way to get it the he11 off my computer?
[10:23] <AlexC_> ompaul: I know it's a new rule, kinda, but I tend not to use it as a lot of the time (from my expirance) users don't know they have recieved the new PM, and so doing it in here they can see it easily
[10:23] <Nergar> anyone??
[10:24] <babu> my computer is not connecting to the internet, can anyone help me?
[10:24] <h1st0> babu: what type of network card do you have?  or internet connection?
[10:24] <dyrne> linux_kid: you need to change /etc/fstab for it to auto mount from now on though. it needs at least the umask=000,defaults  under options
[10:24] <ompaul> AlexC_, I find it effective :)
[10:25] <Matic`Makovec> Err...how can I get root permission on the Live distro of Ubuntu? I mean what's the password? :o
[10:25] <linux_kid> dyrne: i killed the partition in a resize and I just want to try to restore some of the files
[10:25] <mfienen> Is 64-bit Ubuntu ready for prime time?  I have tried running the LiveCD a couple times, but it bombs out.  Makes me worry that I might not want to worry about it.
[10:25] <AlexC_> !sudo | Matic`Makovec
[10:25] <ubotu> Matic`Makovec: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:25] <babu> h1st0, i installed ununtu in my IBM laptop. but it was working. but some day before i installed firewall after that its not working
[10:25] <Zoolie> anyone can send a link to the list of the feisty fawn's new features? not tha launchpad one,maybe one that i can send to a windows fan to tell him what the newest ubuntu knows.
[10:25] <Matic`Makovec> Sudo is soooo unsexy
[10:25] <AlexC_> Matic`Makovec: hum, actually - good question :P But why would you want to?
[10:25] <Matic`Makovec> Thanks AlexC_
[10:25] <Matic`Makovec> I need root permission for mounting something
[10:26] <skywalker> when I try to watch a movie with my defult browser it tells me no totem plug in
[10:26] <AlexC_> Matic`Makovec: I'm not sure what the default users password is, though ... so sudo may not work? unless the password is just blank?
[10:26] <Wibble-> Hi - I've got ubuntu 6.10 and I've been trying to install the nvidia drivers (http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy#How_to_install_Graphics_Driver_.28NVIDIA.29) but it fails with "FATAL: Error running install command for nvidia" when I try to modprobe the driver
[10:26] <docta_v> cafuego_: hmm no dice
[10:26] <Matic`Makovec> AlexC_, password isn't blank and sudo does work, thanks
[10:26] <IndyGunFreak> !multimedia | skywalker
[10:26] <ubotu> skywalker: For multimedia codecs see: https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html and for applications see this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultimediaApplications
[10:26] <Matic`Makovec> Kinda..
[10:26] <AlexC_> Matic`Makovec: what is the password for the LiveCD user, then?
[10:26] <Matic`Makovec> I wish I'd know that
[10:27] <Matic`Makovec> I don't know the password, that is my problem
[10:27] <skywalker> thanks ubotu
[10:27] <babu> h1st0, any idea?
[10:27] <eck> AlexC_: you can set it with passwd
[10:27] <dwight> how do i open to a specific line number using vim/vi?
[10:27] <AlexC_> Matic`Makovec: yeah that's what I thought after I said use sudo
[10:27] <eck> it should log you on without it
[10:27] <Soccer5555> i have done something incredibly stupid
[10:27] <Soccer5555> i have deleted all my taskbars
[10:27] <ompaul> Matic`Makovec, sudo works we use it and don't support those who don't sudo mount partition as_mount_point -- or system adminstration disks
[10:27] <Soccer5555> for xfce
[10:27] <AlexC_> eck: yeah I know that, but Matic`Makovec wants to use Sudo on live CD ... what password would he use?
[10:27] <Zoolie> anyone can send a link to the list of the feisty fawn's new features? not tha launchpad one,maybe one that i can send to a windows fan to tell him what the newest ubuntu knows.
[10:27] <Soccer5555> and i would like them back
[10:27] <eck> my guess is that sudo is configured to run without a password on the live cd
[10:27] <AlexC_> !ubuntu+1 | Zoolie
[10:27] <h1st0> babu: uninstall or configure the firewall properly

[10:28] <babu> h1st0, now can i uninstall that? i dont want to use that anymore
[10:28] <h1st0> babu: maybe someone on the forums could help you configure the firewall

[10:28] <g333k_work> Hello how can I install ubuntu in all my network pcs having the CD in one of my servers?
[10:28] <Matic`Makovec> Yeah well, I can't acess that folder in which I mounted that drive now anyway
[10:28] <klimraamkosie> I need help, I did the follwing "sudo usermod -G uucp myusername".  So it removed me from all the groups that I belonged to.  How do I fix it?
[10:28] <babu> h1st0, i want to uninstall it, do you have any idea?
[10:28] <ompaul> Matic`Makovec, what format was that partition?
[10:28] <Zoolie> thx
[10:28] <AlexC_> ompaul: you've just sent me a PM now ... but I didn't know you sent me one, why? because it's not easy to see and plus I have that menu hidden! This is why I use | not > beacuse not all users will know they recived a PM
[10:29] <eck> klimraamkosie: i think /etc/group- is a backup
[10:29] <dwight> how do i open a file to a specific line number using vim/vi?
[10:29] <dyrne> klimraamkosie: yeah you need to tell it all the groups like group1,group2,group3
[10:29] <Matic`Makovec> Awh, good point ompaul. It was NTFS from previous winblows installation
[10:29] <eck> next time use gpasswd -a
[10:29] <ompaul> Matic`Makovec, umount it and then
[10:29] <klimraamkosie> eck: how do I recover it?
[10:29] <ompaul> !ntfs > Matic`Makovec
[10:29] <dyrne> klimraamkosie: easiest way is to just edit /etc/group with a text editor and put your name in whatever group
[10:29] <g333k_work> Hello how can I install ubuntu in all my network pcs having the CD in one of my servers?
[10:29] <eck> copy the information for your user

[10:29] <Matic`Makovec> Yes, I'm reading it
[10:30] <eck> /etc/group- is plaintext

[10:31] <ompaul> !install >  g333k_work   ( g333k_work please read the message from the bot)
[10:31] <klimraamkosie> eck: I can't open it.
[10:31] <eck> you need to be root
[10:31] <klimraamkosie> i did a sudo gedit /etc/group-
[10:31] <Proghead> Anyone here have deluge as a torrent client?
[10:31] <ompaul> klimraamkosie, to see what groups you are a member of do "id"
[10:31] <klimraamkosie> just does nothing
[10:32] <dyrne> Proghead: yeah
[10:32] <klimraamkosie> just uucp
[10:32] <eck> klimraamkosie: uh, try sudo grep your_user_name /etc/group-
[10:32] <bigjohntoday> I have a question, so far every distribution and flavor of linux has been unable to run on my PC, intel core2 duo with 1 gig ram, matrox G550 pciE video card with a SATA HD and DVD LG rom will ubuntu work, everything else keeps giving me various errors!
[10:32] <klimraamkosie> k
[10:32] <klimraamkosie> no output
[10:32] <sayers> http://www.pcworld.com/article/id,129363-c,linux/article.html
[10:33] <dyrne> klimraamkosie: its /etc/group not group- :)
[10:33] <ompaul> klimraamkosie, uucp is not ubuntu group
[10:33] <eck> dyrne: group- is the backup, no?
[10:33] <klimraamkosie> i realized this a bit late :)
[10:33] <klimraamkosie> but I can't sudo
[10:33] <HeyGuy> bigjohntoday, ubuntu works with core2doe
[10:33] <Proghead> dyrne I don't know how to install it so if you remember how you have maybe you can explain me
[10:33] <dyrne> eck: appearantly. i didnt know that :)
[10:33] <klimraamkosie> and there is no other user
[10:33] <eck> klimraamkosie: worst case you boot into single user mode
[10:33] <dyrne> Proghead: in edgy and feisty its in repo
[10:33] <IndyGunFreak> klimraamkosie: why can't you sudo?
[10:33] <klimraamkosie> it doesn't want to "su" for some reason
[10:34] <klimraamkosie> because of the group i'm in i'm thinking.
[10:34] <dyrne> Proghead: sudo apt-get install deluge-torrent
[10:34] <AlexC_> bigjohntoday: there is a major bug with a JMIcron IDE/SATA Controller and the Linux Kernel, it means that Linux may not even boot, or may not even install. There have been reports that updating you're BIOS to the latest version fixes this big bug
[10:34] <IndyGunFreak> klimraamkosie: ubuntu doesn't use su
[10:34] <klimraamkosie> don't know what else it could be
[10:34] <klimraamkosie> yeah thought so
[10:34] <bigjohntoday> HeyGuy: i am so stumped at this moment i tell you  nothing is working with my pc, and no one is able to resolve this issue
[10:34] <klimraamkosie> that would have helped now though
[10:34] <klimraamkosie> how do I boot into single user mode?
[10:34] <AlexC_> !enter | klimraamkosie
[10:34] <ubotu> klimraamkosie: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[10:34] <bigjohntoday> AlexC this is interesting
[10:35] <bigjohntoday> and how would I know if my board is affected?
[10:35] <eck> i think the rescue mode in grub is set to boot into single user
[10:35] <ompaul> klimraamkosie, as the machine reboots - do this - press esc and eidt the grub command add the word "single" to the long line
[10:35] <AlexC_> bigjohntoday: I gave up and brought a new motherboard in the end haha! Bit of an expensive solution, though. Erm ... hold on, let me a get a link
[10:35] <klimraamkosie> ok i'll do that thanks
[10:35] <AlexC_> bigjohntoday: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Core_2_Duo_Support
[10:36] <HeyGuy> bigjohntoday, what errors do you get?, everything should work, but i'm not sure about 3d in the video card
[10:36] <sebrock> how long can filenames be on Fat32?
[10:36] <eck> off the top of my head, i think 256 characters with path
[10:36] <AlexC_> HeyGuy: no, there is a big bug with JMIcron IDE/SATA Controllers (found on many Core 2 Duo motherboards) that means Linux can not even boot or install.
[10:37] <AlexC_> HeyGuy: it's belived to be fixed in the latest BIOS updates for a users motherboard,
[10:37] <bigjohntoday> this is the error /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
[10:37] <bigjohntoday> and I think AlexC might be right
[10:37] <bigjohntoday> no OS will load
[10:37] <bigjohntoday> and no OS iwll install
[10:37] <AlexC_> bigjohntoday: yep, I had that as well, Ubuntu, Fedora, Gentoo, Slackware ... none would work.
[10:38] <mfienen> Is 64-bit Ubuntu ready for prime time?  I have tried running the LiveCD a couple times, but it bombs out.  Makes me worry that I might not want to worry about it.
[10:38] <HeyGuy> AlexC_, really my mates core2doh works fine
[10:38] <bigjohntoday> Alexc: Finally Someone who has shared this problem
[10:38] <bigjohntoday> AlexC: did you have an intel board by any chance that cuased that issue?
[10:38] <AlexC_> HeyGuy: oh yeah, some motherboards that have support for Core 2 Duo don't use the JMicron IDE/SATA Controller. So they will work fine, but many motherboards do have the JMIicron controller
[10:39] <AlexC_> bigjohntoday: my motherboard that had the problem was Abit AB9 Pro ... I gave up after 2 weeks and brought a Abit AW9D-Max
[10:40] <AlexC_> mfienen: if it doesn't work for you ... then use the i386 (32 bit). I would advise 32bit over 64bit anyway,
[10:41] <bigjohntoday> AlexC: well my board is a intel board well that page you gave me is exactly the issues I am seeing so I will attempt a BIOS flash and maybe togle some of thesettings within the BIOS... right now I am attempting to Install windows (booo) just to see if the video card is the issue because at the current moment I am left in the blue!
[10:42] <AlexC_> bigjohntoday: you'll probably find Windows installs fine, doubt it's video card as even when I installed Arch Linux (which has no GUI by default) didn't work,
[10:43] <Bsims> Why isn't discover installed automaticaly?
[10:43] <robbiev> hey all. I have 32bin ubuntu installed on my machine with 4gigs of ram and the kernel is telling me that I only have 3 gigs of ram. Any ideas?
[10:43] <nemesis> nas
[10:43] <HeyGuy> !discover
[10:43] <ubotu> discover: hardware identification system. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.1.0-1 (edgy), package size 295 kB, installed size 716 kB
[10:44] <AlexC_> Anyway, I've gotta go - bye all! good luck with getting it working, bigjohntoday - you may find this helpful as well: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=234706 bye!
[10:44] <Bsims> HeyGuy: what does ubuntu use instead?
[10:44] <eck> robbiev: you need to configure the kernel to use > 4GB of ram
[10:44] <eck> try the server kernel
[10:44] <xtknight> what's that program you use to track I/O/memory/etc accesses from a program?  stat something?
[10:44] <bigjohntoday> AlexC: it is an isue with the jmicron as you said
[10:44] <bigjohntoday> thanks a million
[10:44] <robbiev> eck, I thought the ubuntu kernel had that on by default
[10:44] <Husse> sall all
[10:44] <Husse> help me pls

[10:45] <Husse> pls paste in pastebin your sources.list for ubuntu
[10:45] <xtknight> Husse: stock Edgy installation?
[10:45] <Husse> yes
[10:45] <Bsims> What does ubuntu use instead of discover, I don't want any conflicts
[10:45] <Husse> pls
[10:45] <eck> i think it needs to be compiled into the kernel though, so i doubt you can enable it without replacing the kernel

[10:49] <ra21vi> hi, i got a problem in my ubuntu-edgy
[10:49] <VSpike> can anyone point me to some info about kernel packages in ubuntu?  I'd like to remove the kernels I'm not using but i'm not sure which packages to remove
[10:49] <bigjohntoday> so HeyGuy: it seems that their is a JMicron / PATA controller issue that is causing these errors
[10:49] <White_Lightning> !vnc
[10:49] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[10:49] <HeyGuy> VSpike, linux-image
[10:49] <ra21vi> when i do apt-get or any installatoion/update/remove, it shows error about the python-minimal
[10:49] <MrRio_> VSpike: Do uname -a
[10:50] <MrRio_> VSpike, Then you can remove the ones your not on now
[10:50] <eck> ra21vi: what is the error?
[10:50] <bigjohntoday> I will attempt to do a network install of the OS and disconnect all IDE drives that I have leaving only a SATA driove if it works then that is the issue if not back to the drawing board
[10:50] <HeyGuy> bigjohntoday, yea, is it fixed in the latest bios update=
[10:50] <HeyGuy> ?
[10:50] <ra21vi> eck: umm, let me check the error and tell u
[10:50] <bigjohntoday> HeyGuy: Well I still got to search that, gimme a few mins to find out
[10:50] <HeyGuy> kk
[10:51] <poningru> cafuego: ping
[10:51] <profoX`> so... I use pbuilder to set up a build env, and it tells me "I: Retrieving Release" without more info.. should I just keep waiting? It's been like that for 15 minutes now
[10:51] <Lice> I deleted my /etc/sudoers and then i put it back and now i get this error: /etc/sudoers is mode 0644, should be 0440
[10:51] <Lice> anyone know how to fix?
[10:51] <rmd_> Lice, change the mode.
[10:51] <HeyGuy> chmod
[10:51] <profoX`> I know pbuilder kan take some time to download the environment, but still.. i don't see nog progress bar or anything..
[10:51] <eck> Lice: man chmod
[10:52] <suprememilo> hey
[10:52] <fortran01> Does the PPC image of ubuntu-server 6.06 support both 32-bit and 64-bit versions? Thanks
[10:52] <Lice> chmod 0440 sudoers?
[10:52] <VSpike> OK, so I'm on 2.6.17-11-generic... but "dpkg-query -l | grep kernel" gives a whole load of items..
[10:52] <rmd_> Lice, either search Google or "man chmod" to learn about chmod, it's a really useful utility.
[10:52] <suprememilo> anyone here ever installed a live version on an Ipod shuffle?
[10:52] <eck> VSpike: that's because the package is called linux-image-generic, or something like that
[10:52] <rmd_> suprememilo, my guess is that would destroy the software on the unit.

[10:53] <ra21vi> eck: ok here it is, when i did sudo apt-get install apache, it downloaded the stuffs and then
[10:54] <VSpike> it's reasonable to remove the 386 kernel, right?
[10:54] <eck> robbiev: yeah, but i think userspace applications can only see 3G unless you have 64 bit memory
[10:54] <ra21vi> eck: Preconfiguring packages ...
[10:54] <ra21vi> Setting up python2.4-minimal (2.4.4~c1-0ubuntu1) ...

[10:54] <ubotu> ra21vi: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[10:54] <Lice> Great rmd_ !! THX
[10:54] <rmd_> woops.. thought you were still going
[10:54] <ra21vi> eck: then some errors with codes and in main() block
[10:55] <ra21vi> eck: ValueError: error parsing Python-Version attribute
[10:55] <HeyGuy> ra21vi, feisty?
[10:55] <eck> ra21vi: pastebin the errors
[10:55] <ra21vi> HeyGuy: edgy
[10:55] <ra21vi> eck: ok
[10:56] <eck> robbiev: we have servers at work with 4G of memory, and they have the same issue if the kernel is just set to use 4G of address space
[10:56] <Lice> rmd_ is it possible to make a folder viewable by its owner?
[10:56] <eck> if you bump it up, the problem goes away
[10:56] <Iced_Kirby> What are the chances of Partitioning corrupting your files on the existing drive?
[10:56] <dyrne> Lice: only by its owner?
[10:57] <Lice> yes
[10:57] <petemc> Iced_Kirby: it can happen
[10:57] <eck> Iced_Kirby: zero, partition modifies the partition table
[10:57] <ikonia> Iced_Kirby: slim - but possible
[10:57] <dyrne> Lice: chmod 700 directory/
[10:57] <Peshk0`> hello
[10:57] <Lice> really?
[10:57] <dyrne> Lice: i do that on all my /home/username  usually
[10:57] <White_Lightning> hmm, anyone have vncviewer expirience?
[10:57] <Iced_Kirby> If I defragment my drive, it the chance even slimmer?
[10:57] <robbiev> eck, so you reccomend bumping the setting up to the 64gig mark?
[10:57] <ikonia> Iced_Kirby: not really
[10:57] <eck> robbiev: yes
[10:58] <Iced_Kirby> Somebody told me defragmenting can help Partitioning
[10:58] <dyrne> Lice: dont sudo chmod though :)
[10:58] <ikonia> it can speed things up a little
[10:58] <eck> Iced_Kirby: i think you are talking about resizing partitions
[10:58] <eck> that is not the same thing as partitioning
[10:58] <Lice> why not?
[10:58] <Iced_Kirby> eck: Sorry, I mean resizing partitions
[10:59] <Lice> i run a program with root rights and i only want it to be able to view the folder
[10:59] <White_Lightning> when I run vncviewer xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -fullscreen it works properly, but I can't pull up the vnc viewer popup window or close vncviewer without using the system manager on my other monitor, how do I fix that?
[10:59] <Lice> dyrne ohh now i get it :P
[10:59] <Iced_Kirby> Going to install Ubuntu, laters
[10:59] <eck> Iced_Kirby: to resize a partition it needs to be defragmented in the sense that all of the files at the end of the partition need to be moved to the beginning
[10:59] <eck> normally the resizing tool will take care of that for you
[10:59] <Iced_Kirby> eck: Every single file?
[11:00] <robbiev> eck, I'll try it out. What about the "User address space size"? I assume that is the ram that userspace can use. It is set for 1 gig, perhaps if I up it to 2 gigs it will help.
[11:00] <ikonia> Iced_Kirby: yes
[11:00] <bimberi> White_Lightning: does F8 bring up the manager? (it does in the Windows version)
[11:00] <eck> Iced_Kirby: if you want to make the drive 20% smaller, all the data in the last 20% needs to be moved over
[11:00] <ikonia> Iced_Kirby: the docs on ubuntu.com explain the process
[11:00] <eck> robbiev: i'm not really sure
[11:00] <Iced_Kirby> eck: Okay, so I don't have to run the defragmenter in windows many times to get it all at the beginning?
[11:00] <robbiev> eck no prob
[11:00] <Iced_Kirby> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/forum/installation/Partitioning
[11:00] <eck> Iced_Kirby: gparted or what have you should take care of it
[11:01] <poningru> actually guys the resizing tools for ntfs, ext etc. will take care of it

[11:08] <ikonia> stop posting it
[11:08] <Rayko> thank
[11:08] <jeffwheeler> ikonia: hmm, okay; but will I have capser available for Debian? Isn't that how Ubuntu does persistence?
[11:08] <eck> ra21vi: weird, i have never seen that problem before
[11:08] <rmd_> So, replace "mousepad" with "gedit" if you're using Ubuntu
[11:08] <Rayko> well
[11:08] <Rayko> i need it fixed
[11:08] <skywalker> lol
[11:08] <eck> did you check the forums?
[11:08] <Rayko> and nobody is helping
[11:08] <FunnyLookinHat> Rayko, that's really strange...   let me look around a bit

[11:09] <Rayko> sorry :)
[11:09] <Rayko> won't do it again
[11:09] <eck> i would try the forums or on the mailing lists, i'm sure someone has come across it before
[11:09] <White_Lightning> Hey is there anyway to disconnect all the people currently vnc-ing in to your machine? Like just logging them off? Because then I could kick myself off the machine I'm vnc-ing in to and that would be a work-around for my problem
[11:09] <Rayko> eck: i did, i only found bad threads without replies n stuff
[11:09] <Cosine> rmd_: the error is line 18 which says user
[11:10] <ra21vi> eck i tried, ... u know, due to this error, i cannt install/uninstall anything
[11:10] <jeffwheeler> ikonia: it's on every Ubuntu CD; https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent talks about it, also
[11:10] <skywalker> hey Rayko at least it dont say this aplay: device_list:222: no soundcards found...
[11:10] <ikonia> jeffwheeler: i'll read - thanks
[11:10] <Rayko> yeah
[11:10] <FunnyLookinHat> Rayko, have you tried using different audio services?  such as alsa?
[11:10] <skywalker> but my sound card is in my device manger
[11:10] <Rayko> i had that after messing around with it but i reinstalled ubuntu <_<
[11:10] <rmd_> Cosine, ok.  armed with this new information start Googling "proftpd.conf", or "missing arguments on line 18 of '/etc/proftpd.conf" or "GProFTP configuration"
[11:10] <Rayko> what do you mean?
[11:10] <eck> ra21vi: just a guess... have you tried removing that package?
[11:11] <Rayko> funnylookinhat what do you mean?
[11:11] <ra21vi> which one?
[11:11] <skywalker> it see's my sound card but the chip set is wrong or something
[11:11] <fiyawerx> hey guys.. how can you search through aptitude's 'descriptions' from a command line? it seems when i use search it just shows matches in the package name
[11:11] <ra21vi> eck?
[11:11] <eck> ra21vi: python2.4-minimal
[11:11] <jeffwheeler> Then, does anybody else know the best way to do this? I've seen various instructions, but none of the ones I've found seem to be very good.
[11:11] <ra21vi> yeah, there wre python 2.4 n 2.5 anit both minimal versions installed
[11:11] <Cosine> ok, thanks for your help

[11:13] <FunnyLookinHat> Rayko, Try ESD too then
[11:13] <cafuego_> fxr: Hmm, I don't think Ubuntu sues 2.4.x kernels, unles you're running something scarily old.
[11:13] <FunnyLookinHat> Rayko, also, there should be an intel option, try that one

[11:16] <Ktron> Is there a 'designed to be printed' installation guide for Ubuntu? I'm about to take down this computer in an attempt to bring it back up as a ubuntu system, but I was hoping to have something to hold on to rather than hoping I can get back up through networking working again... Or am I forgetting something important, like the desktop version of 6.10 is a livecd
[11:16] <FunnyLookinHat> Rayko, Sound Playback and Music and Movies
[11:16] <mfienen> The day software installation for Linux is streamlined will be the day it starts taking over the world.
[11:16] <rmd_> Ktron, the desktop cd is a livecd...
[11:16] <mfienen> Until then...no.
[11:16] <eck> mfienen: apt is pretty streamlined
[11:16] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> ikonia: think ive found it... restarting x, thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

[11:16] <ReWT_AxS> and command to make it work?
[11:17] <Rayko> FunnyLookinHat: i'll try out all options let's see
[11:17] <skywalker>  myin sound preferences and in the sound tab I have no sound card in the Defult sound card anyone know what this means?
[11:17] <rmd_> Ktron, no problem.  just make sure you figure out important network stuff before yo commit to the install
[11:17] <FunnyLookinHat> Rayko, ok.
[11:17] <Ktron> rmd_, ie, mostly, does it come up with the livecd, I imagine
[11:17] <cafuego_> fxr: If it's for 2.4.28, it's in all likelyhood a backport from 2.6.x. I'd not worry about it and use Edgy, then go Feisty in april and sue 2.6.20.
[11:17] <ReWT_AxS> would 'modprobe snd' load all sound drivers?
[11:18] <entalpija> i've truble: ksoftirqd/0 load so much CPU. It happens several days after network adaptors was changed
[11:18] <rmd_> Ktron, well.  it might.  it might not.  but, if it comes up with booting the live cd, then it will come up after the install
[11:18] <rmd_> Ktron, on the other hand, if it doesn't you need to know how to get it to work after you do the install, preferably before you install it, yes?
[11:18] <orionrobots> ReWT: what sound card are you using?
[11:19] <Ktron> rmd_, I'll reboot and find out, I do remember having issues with getting certain distributions to pick up my networking card... Yeah, well, if it doesn't, I'll probably end up rebooting back to windows to see if I can't find some information on my card
[11:19] <fxr> yeah cafuego_ ll put it on the backburner for now, its not critical i supppose.. id just like it lmsensors to work....  thanks.. : )
[11:19] <rmd_> Ktron, excellent.  good luck to you and let us know if you need anything.
[11:19] <hjmills> how do i change the colour of my theme? I changed it to something and now cant remember how to change it back...
[11:19] <niklas^_> can i install ubuntu in textbased mode instead of graphic mode
[11:20] <robbiev> are there instructions to install ubuntu on a flash drive?

[11:20] <mindstate> niklas^_, yes
[11:20] <bimberi> !alternate > niklas^_
[11:20] <Ktron> rmd_, we'll see, thanks
[11:20] <rmd_> hjmills, look under the "system" section of your menu for "window manager" settings or "tweaks"
[11:20] <orionrobots> I have just observed a very bizarre crash on an Edgy box. Looked like memory corruption dumping to a frame buffer - but it was all rounded blobs.. Any ideas?
[11:20] <skywalker> now it says no Gstreamer plugsn
[11:20] <FunnyLookinHat> Rayko, get it working yet?
[11:21] <niklas^_> eck: and how will i use the alternate install?
[11:21] <orionrobots> The box is using an nvidia gfx card, and following the crash, I could not get to VT's or SSH in - so it had properly died.
[11:21] <Lice> Btw anyone know how to change the clock ?
[11:21] <skywalker> and I installed them
[11:21] <orionrobots> Lice: Command line or GUI?
[11:21] <hjmills> rmd_, i am using gnome but the gtk theme colours are all wrong because I changed them somehow and changing theme in the theme prefs dialog doesnt help
[11:21] <Lice> orionrobots cmd line
[11:21] <orionrobots> date should do it. As root.
[11:22] <FunnyLookinHat> Rayko, my guess is that you won't get it to work because there is a reported bug with your audio card for ALSA 1.0.11 which is what edgy uses
[11:22] <w98ToUbuntu1week> Hello. I'm wondering how to search the web from Evolution, with a highlight-word right-click? (as done with conquery extension in thunderbird..)
[11:22] <rmd_> hjmills, it's in there somewhere.  on mine it is under "user interface settings"
[11:22] <orionrobots> Lice: sudo date <datestring> - you should probably "man date" as I can never remember the formatting.
[11:22] <FunnyLookinHat> Rayko, you could attempt to compile 1.0.13 if you would like, I have a forum post that will walk yo uthrough it

[11:22] <skywalker> what does this mean?
[11:22] <skywalker> anyone
[11:22] <hjmills> rmd_, aha! i found it - it was a ~/.gtkrc file giving me grief
[11:22] <rmd_> hjmills, good on ya/
[11:23] <orionrobots> skywalker: where are you seeing this message?
[11:23] <hjmills> rmd_, thanks for the help
[11:23] <House> can someone tell me how to use the ndis wrapper
[11:23] <rmd_> hjmills, surely, though it doesn't seem that i did anything
[11:23] <pollywog> when I try a vnc connection all I get from the remote or localhost is a gray screen
[11:23] <Lice> orionrobots i think my clock is on crack or something, it displays diffrent depending on what time on the day it is
[11:23] <rmd_> House, can you type http://www.google.com?
[11:23] <skywalker> ;( Iam iggyed
[11:23] <House> yeah
[11:24] <Lice> orionrobots yesterday it was 2 hours wrong
[11:24] <House> but i dont understand the explanations
[11:24] <rmd_> House, so just Google "ndiswrapper"  there are mounds of explanations
[11:24] <Lice> orionrobots this morning 1 hour wrong and now its exactly synced
[11:24] <House> i cant find te inf file
[11:24] <House> *the
[11:24] <orionrobots> Lice: Hmm - that is really odd.
[11:24] <pollywog> Lice it's the crack of dawn
[11:24] <hjmills> rmd_, you answered which in a busy channel can be very helpful
[11:24] <orionrobots> Lice: Have you got it sync'd to an NTP service?
[11:24] <rmd_> House, you need to provide the .inf file for your card.
[11:25] <Lice> nah i just wrote date and looked on windows clock at the same time
[11:25] <zero88> what are the plugins i have to download to be able to watch videos?
[11:25] <zero88> not flashplayer tho
[11:25] <House> i know that
[11:25] <rmd_> zero88, just install VLC.  it will solve all your problems.
[11:25] <pollywog> but anyone know how I can get vnc working in Ubuntu (kubuntu)?
[11:25] <House> but where do you find that
[11:25] <sun_> how to change sources.list to go to edgy from drake? can you just change everything to edgy and dist-upgrade?
[11:25] <orionrobots> Lice: I see. I sync to a local time NTP server, and then just dont worry about i.
[11:25] <orionrobots> Pollywog: Client or server?
[11:26] <zero88> thanks rmd_ thas with apt-get right?
[11:26] <House> i have the driver
[11:26] <pfein> what's the wifi applet called on the liveCD?  trying to help newuser
[11:26] <pollywog> orionrobots: both
[11:26] <rmd_> zero88, you can apt-get, or synaptic, whatever.
[11:26] <zero88> ok thnks
[11:26] <House> but it has a lot of files
[11:26] <FunnyLookinHat> pfein, network-manager
[11:26] <orionrobots> Pollywog: ubuntu, xubuntu or kubuntu?
[11:26] <pollywog> orionrobots: both since I do not know on which side the error is
[11:26] <rmd_> pfein, are you talking about network-manager?
[11:26] <pollywog> kubuntu
[11:26] <House> and none of theme have .inf in them
[11:26] <orionrobots> Ok.
[11:26] <pfein> orionrobots: yeah, can't find it the menu (I run KDE)...
[11:26] <pfein> FunnyLookinHat: where is it?
[11:27] <gopp> !ppc
[11:27] <sun_> how to change sources.list to go to edgy from drake? can you just change everything to edgy and dist-upgrade?
[11:27] <ubotu> ppc is PowerPC.  Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up until edgy, and is now a community port.
[11:27] <gopp> what hte ppc debian
[11:27] <pollywog> orionrobots: the same procedure that works in ubuntu will not work in kubuntu?
[11:27] <rmd_> House, have you tried Googling "<card model> .inf" ? or "<card model> ndiswrapper" ? or "<card model> driver" ?
[11:27] <Micky> hi
[11:27] <pollywog> because maybe that's my problem
[11:27] <orionrobots> Kind of - I admit I use vino which is very simple with gnome ubuntu. But basic vncserver should be fine.
[11:27] <pollywog> I used a procedure given in the forums for Ubuntu
[11:27] <FunnyLookinHat> pfein, you will have to install it...   sudo apt-get install knetworkmanager
[11:28] <gopp> is thier a ubuntu ppc channel
[11:28] <miles> hi there
[11:28] <FunnyLookinHat> pfein, afterwards, you should reboot and it should show up in your system tray
[11:28] <orionrobots> What kind of errors are you seeing?
[11:28] <pfein> FunnyLookinHat: I'm ok - I'm trying to help someone booting a liveCD (gnome) at #pycon sprints
[11:28] <pollywog> I have used vnc in Debian but the same process is not working in kubuntu
[11:28] <miles> I got some question about Feisty, is that the right channel?

[11:29] <FunnyLookinHat> pfein, well good luck then  : )    let me know if I can help anymore
[11:29] <FunnyLookinHat> I told that guy why he has his problem, lol
[11:29] <skywalker> I guess nodoby wanted to help me with my sound

[11:29] <skywalker> why
[11:30] <bimberi> s/wanted/can/
[11:30] <pfein> FunnyLookinHat: I just need to know what the app's called in gnome...
[11:30] <rmd_> skywalker, sheeh.  who knows.  it couldnt be that no one had the answer.  its just definitely that they were holding it from you.
[11:30] <orionrobots> skywalker: What card do you have and where are you seeing the error message?
[11:30] <Quid> or is there a better channel to ask in? (searching web from evolution) please and thank you :)
[11:30] <weed0r> n1
[11:30] <FunnyLookinHat> pfein, in gnome it's called network-manager-gnome

[11:31] <skywalker> Iam seeing the error messages everyware

[11:32] <ubotu> 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
[11:33] <skywalker> yes its CS4611
[11:33] <debuggerboy> So will beryl make ubuntu run slower??
[11:33] <cafuego_> debuggerboy: a bit, yes
[11:33] <poningru> cafuego_: dude...
[11:33] <jrib> debuggerboy: depends on how well your hardware handles it
[11:33] <poningru> respond to pings d*mn it
[11:33] <cafuego_> poningru: que?
[11:34] <orionrobots> debuggerboy: if your machine is mission critical, dont do it. If it is for fun, and messing around, go for it.
[11:34] <Quid> does anyone even use evolution as their mail client?
[11:34] <cafuego_> poningru: what pings?
[11:34] <debuggerboy> my ram is only 512 mb and display card is Cirrus Logic (old Video card)
[11:34] <whta> can i mount a .mdf file in the same was as an iso?
[11:34] <skywalker> that is the number on the chip
[11:34] <orionrobots> skywalker: Ok. And the manufacturer?
[11:34] <cafuego_> poningru: did you ping `cafuego' instead of `cafuego_'?
[11:34] <computermc> Quid: yes

[11:35] <morrolan> Help!  SSH access to remote machine is being denied, saying that the IP address and possibly the RSA key have changed at the same time?  How can I regain access?
[11:35] <skywalker> Crystal Semiconductor
[11:35] <Quid> thats insane! you mean every time you want to search google or wikipedia or something for a phrase, you have to manually copy and paste it into a browser?
[11:36] <FarrisG> How do I remove a security upgrade? For example, I have openoffice.org-impress 2.0.2-2ubuntu12.2 from security repo installed. 2.0.2-2ubuntu12 is available from the regular repo. I want to get rid of .2 because it's causing complete incompatibility with PPT.
[11:36] <orionrobots> skywalker: And is this a problem you have had since installing, or developed later?
[11:36] <debuggerboy> so after installing beryl ... do we need to make any configuation changes?
[11:36] <cafuego_> debuggerboy: no, it'll be slower and buggy all by itself.
[11:36] <skywalker> installing
[11:36] <skywalker> I even reinstalled it
[11:36] <orionrobots> Ok.
[11:36] <debuggerboy> beryl !! oh ! is it buggy?
[11:37] <skywalker> I dont know what els to do

[11:37] <skywalker> no
[11:38] <addictedtothenet> hello all I'm wondering if anyone can help me with a GRUB problem or direct me to some help?
[11:38] <Quid> FunnyLookinHat: so every time you want to search google or wikipedia or something for a phrase, you have to manually copy and paste it into a browser?
[11:38] <FunnyLookinHat> marshall, You can probably find some tutorials in ubuntuforums.org, I would suggest using the DCGUI package
[11:38] <marshall> ok, thanks FunnyLookinHat
[11:38] <FunnyLookinHat> Quid, (god forbid you have to copy and paste)...  lol, yes.   : )
[11:38] <jrib> morrolan: delete the known one in ~/.ssh/known_hosts if you're sure no one is messing with you...
[11:38] <itguru> morrolan, you can delete the keys from you home dir
[11:38] <Quid> okies. (thanks for replying :)
[11:38] <wimpies> anybody around that has some hardware knowledge ? I have problems with my box i want to have an oppinion about
[11:38] <FunnyLookinHat> Quid, some clients (such as evolution) aren't as integrated into browsers as others (such as thunderbird)
[11:38] <morrolan> itguru - i know no-one is messing, it's my mums PC
[11:38] <Quid> and opera and outlook..
[11:39] <itguru> your ssh keys would be at ~/.ssh/sshkeys I think - delete that file
[11:39] <itguru> morrolan, then you can connect, and it will save the key again
[11:39] <orionrobots> skywalker: I will have a look around, but I cant guarantee anything - I dont have one of those cards myself.
[11:39] <itguru> morrolan, even tho' it's your mums pc - the messing would be on the server your connecting to, not your computer
[11:39] <debuggerboy> if beryl is buggy, I hav heard about compiz! which one is safe!!!
[11:39] <orionrobots> skywalker: However, others have seen some problems related to this chipset -  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=165977
[11:39] <skywalker> yea it is on board
[11:40] <FunnyLookinHat> debuggerboy, best place to ask about beryl/compiz is in #ubuntu-effects      but both are just as "stable", however I've had more success with beryl personally
[11:40] <whta> does anyone here know how i can mount a .mdf file?
[11:40] <orionrobots> debuggerboy: neither if you are talking a machine that should be absolutely solid.
[11:40] <mindstate> whta, u have to convert it to a iso
[11:40] <Quid> ah well, i'm just grateful to have found this thread yesterday, on shortening the menu-delay in gnome: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=215119
[11:40] <mindstate> whta, use mdf2iso ..should be in the repo's
[11:40] <whta> mindstate: thanks
[11:40] <mindstate> whta, no problem
[11:40] <debuggerboy> thanx FunnyLookinHat....
[11:41] <FunnyLookinHat> debuggerboy, no problem  : )
[11:41] <morrolan> itguru, I know, but I severely doubt it, I probably just didn't set it up right when I was last there.
[11:41] <niklas^_> any ide why the installation doesn't start for me..?
[11:41] <debuggerboy> so I will go for beryl....
[11:42] <orionrobots> skywalker: can you pop up a command line?
[11:42] <skywalker> yes I just did
[11:42] <Quid> thanks again

[11:49] <Mach3> I have to register (by MAC addr) to get on the network at my school.  But i've learned that linux gives a different ip address than windows.  Any way i can set it to be the same, so that i dont have to re-register everytime i switch OSs?
[11:49] <orionrobots> skywalker: ok.. how about modprobe cs46xx
[11:49] <chamberlain> well pancakes, you need your ubuntu box to do the installation

[11:51] <Pancakes> chamberlain, well, it's not really 'remembering', I'll print what you say.
[11:51] <Pancakes> I just need to know what I'll need to do.

[11:54] <Pancakes> chamberlain ?
[11:54] <chamberlain> well pancakes, its necessary so youll have to do something about it
[11:55] <skywalker> I posted the error message
[11:55] <nowhere> How can I, using command line, move all files in a folder to another folder? I found it's the mv command, but for example sudo mv /Desktop/data/ /Desktop/data2/ doesn't work?
[11:55] <orionrobots> Okay - did you get a url from that?
[11:55] <Pancakes> chamberlain, why would I need internet while installing my router (internet)?
[11:55] <kane77> nowhere, use * as wildcard
[11:55] <snowman3388> oddie, yeah it works with the hard drive but I'd really like to take the drive out, I edited my /boot/grub/device.map file and it wasn't being used in my menu.lst file I don't understand why it doesn't work
[11:55] <jrib> nowhere: that will work, it just may not do what you want
[11:55] <nowhere> mv /Desktop/data/* ?
[11:56] <chamberlain> for the drivers youll need
[11:56] <skywalker> yes
[11:56] <Ktron> Ah, the dreaded Xorg... Time to research the hell out of my hardware again and pray to the gods of whytf did it work this time and see if I can't figure out how to get Xorg working
[11:56] <orionrobots> well...
[11:56] <Pancakes> chamberlain, I can download those then put them on a CD..
[11:56] <kane77> nowhere, yes /Desktop/data/* /wherever/you/want
[11:56] <chamberlain> pancakes, cant you just move the computer?
[11:56] <Serinth> Hey guys, i've updated my kernel with a kernel from kernel.org, how do i get apt-get to patch my kernel automatically
[11:56] <Pancakes> What would that solve?
[11:57] <chamberlain> to where your wireless router is
[11:57] <jrib> nowhere: note, that kane77's suggestions will not copy files that start with '.'
[11:57] <snowman3388> oddie?
[11:57] <neutrino15> hello, I am having trouble installing ubuntu on my macbook's external drive. When I install it, GRUB fails (fatal error). rEFIt is now convinced that there is a magical Legacy OS installed on a non existant drive.. WHats up?
[11:57] <kane77> nowhere, * substitute any number of characters (even none) so if you woud mv *.jpg it would move all jpegs
[11:57] <Pancakes> chamberlain, I have sattellite.
[11:57] <Pancakes> It isn't that simple
[11:57] <oddie> snowman2288: http://tlug.dnho.net/?q=node/91
[11:57] <kane77> jrib, right!
[11:57] <snowman3388> oddie, thanks I'll have a look
[11:57] <skywalker> ok
[11:57] <Pancakes> I just need to know what driver essentially.
[11:58] <whta> i know this is off topic, but does anyone know the proper way to execute a setup exe in wine from a mounted iso?
[11:58] <nowhere> I used ~/Desktop/data/* that seemed to work. Thanks guys!
[11:58] <chamberlain> well, ndiswrapper
[11:58] <oddie> snowman3388: maybe have a look there at the oment i cant help
[11:58] <skywalker> hey thanks for the help I dont know what it could be
[11:58] <chamberlain> but youll need to configure it
[11:58] <Pancakes> Uh huh, I'll print off a tutorial for it.
[11:58] <Pancakes> I just need to know what to download.
[11:58] <chamberlain> ok
[11:58] <kane77> nowhere, just note what jrib said.. it wouldnt move hidden files (the ones starting with a dot .)
[11:58] <Pancakes> Which was my first question:/
[11:58] <chamberlain> ndiswrapper-common, ndiswrapper-utils1.8, ndisgtk
[11:59] <Dralid> Has anyone had any success in running DemocracyTV on their Ubuntu machine? I just installed it and it unexpectedly closes just after starting.
[11:59] <skywalker> orionrobots thank you for the help\
[11:59] <Ktron> So, Xorg didn't work by itself, Xorg -configure didn't generate a config that worked any better, looking for the next place to look to help myself
[11:59] <nowhere> Hmm anyone using openttd? How do I launch it?
[11:59] <skywalker> I dont know what it could be
[12:00] <skywalker> after I typed modprobe snd -cs46xx it just did notheing and droped down
[12:00] <orionrobots> skywalker: What was the url?
[12:00] <skywalker> the one you posted
[12:00] <orionrobots> skywalker: what do you mean "dropped down"?
