[12:01] <orionrobots> skywalker; the difference is that this is the paste for *your* message
[12:01] <sy677> hi, does anyone know about vpn with pptp?
[12:01] <orionrobots> Skywalker: right that may be simple
[12:01] <skywalker> hehe
[12:01] <orionrobots> skywalker: try "sudo modprobe cs46xx"
[12:02] <skywalker> ok
[12:02] <colbert> PriceChild: I keep getting this error when I run kiba-dock: "(kiba-dock:7803): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_str_has_suffix: assertion `str != NULL' failed"
[12:02] <orionrobots> skywalker: it will ask for your password.
[12:02] <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?
[12:02] <oddie> snowman3388: How did you go? I think you need to setup grub again somehow....typign 'grub' or something
[12:02] <PriceChild> colbert, its buggy :)
[12:02] <orionrobots> Mach3: Is this a static or dhcp address?
[12:03] <skywalker> ok
[12:03] <erUSUL> Mach3: MAC adress does not change between OSes
[12:03] <orionrobots> Mach3: If windows is using a static address, then chances are you should set it up the same way in linux.
[12:03] <Mach3> orion: static more or less... its assigned by dhcp, but its always the same
[12:03] <dejx> hello
[12:03] <dejx> where to change language in ubuntu?
[12:03] <javiolo> hi, anyone is running the latest rtorrent ? Id like to know how to get it on 6.10
[12:03] <dejx> more detail, xubuntu
[12:03] <orionrobots> skywalker: what was the result of that with sudo?
[12:04] <skywalker> notheing it just droped back down
[12:04] <Mach3> erUSUL: thats what i though, that it was hardware based.  but it shows up differently, and i have to reregister as if im on a diff pc when i change os's
[12:04] <Avalon_> Can someone explain to me why I can't get my Edgy DVD to boot? It goes through and dumps me at an inftrafs (spelled wrong) Console and I don't know where to go from there, but I know that's not right. I've reburnt the dvd 3 times from three different ftp images, so I know that's not it.
[12:04] <skywalker> to skywalker@ect...
[12:04] <orionrobots> skywalker: Any error messages?
[12:04] <Ktron> Any suggestions to where I should look/turn to/try next to get X working with ubuntu 6.10? the livecd failed, and Xorg -configure didn't create a config that worked either
[12:04] <skywalker> no
[12:04] <chamberlain> avaln, does your computer support dvds?  silly question , i know
[12:04] <orionrobots> skywalker: if not - that is a good sign. Try "lsmod | grep cs46xx"
[12:04] <skywalker> ok
[12:05] <colbert> PriceChild: What can I do? The icons are bouncing but the dock is a wierd blueish wierd design
[12:05] <Mach3> orion: both windows and linux are set to obtain everything automatically
[12:05] <Avalon_> Sure does chamberlain reads and writes them.
[12:05] <dejx> where to change language in ubuntu?
[12:05] <chamberlain> ok, avalon, does it give any errors?
[12:05] <PriceChild> colbert, right click it for a menu to change things
[12:05] <erUSUL> Mach3: maybe you can set the MAC in linux to be the same as in windows... check google
[12:05] <jrib> dejx: at the gdm login screen, press the options button
[12:05] <Avalon_> Not that I can see, it goes to the boot screen, loads everything, hits some kinda hardware problem and kills off.
[12:05] <Smashcat> Hi, anyone here use amavis with ubuntu? I have some legitimate mail quarantined, and need to know how I can see it?
[12:05] <orionrobots> Mach3: DHCP addresses are by their nature changing. If you take a box, get it to acquire an IP via DHCP, then reboot it and do the same, you may get a different IP. The MAC should be the same.
[12:06] <dejx> Jrib i start x with startx
[12:06] <chamberlain> dejx: system>administration>language support
[12:06] <orionrobots> skywalker: Did you get the output from that last command?
[12:06] <skywalker> yes
[12:06] <jrib> dejx: idk, maybe edit  /etc/environment
[12:06] <orionrobots> skywalker: care to share it with me?
[12:06] <naut> If I want to run a command line program from another process
[12:06] <sy677> can anybody help me with a broken internet connection while happily connected to my vpn?
[12:06] <mahohmei> Could someone here answer a relatively dumb ubuntu server question?
[12:06] <skywalker> yes it says  soundcore  11232 2 cs46xx,snd
[12:07] <chamberlain> sure
[12:07] <jrib> !someone | mahohmei
[12:07] <ubotu> mahohmei: 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?
[12:07] <naut> but not have all the output buffered and sent back in one huge dump when the command exits
[12:07] <naut> how can I do that?
[12:07] <orionrobots> skywalker: ok - sounds like you have the module there now.
[12:07] <naut> I need to run some kind of pseudo terminal programmatically
[12:07] <skywalker> and snd_page_alloc 11400 3 snd_cs4231_lib,snd_cs46xx,snd_pcm\
[12:08] <skywalker> no \
[12:08] <Smashcat> ubotu: The "Does anyone..." prefix is part of the question
[12:08] <mahohmei> We have a Windows domain; I have installed samba and sshd; is there a way to allow a list of users to log on with domain\username and their AD password?
[12:08] <opensourceje2> alloha
[12:08] <Smashcat> Ah, a bot..
[12:08] <cables> Now that I've removed Automatix and everything it installed, is it safe to remove its additions to my sources.list?
[12:08] <orionrobots> skywalker: So you may have it up and running now. Try this (keeping in the backticks please) : aplay `locate *.wav |  head -1`
[12:08] <Avalon_> I hope I can get tihs thing fixed.. I want outta vista fast.
[12:08] <chamberlain> cables, removing those entries will make it unable to upgrade the packages
[12:08] <erUSUL> naut: named pipe? output to file then read that file?
[12:08] <chamberlain> but yes
[12:09] <skywalker> should I check under the sound pref's?
[12:09] <naut> erUSUL, it's and interactive command line program
[12:09] <cables> chamberlain, I've uninstalled everything Automatix installed.
[12:09] <orionrobots> skywalker: try that command first..
[12:09] <erUSUL> naut: expect
[12:09] <chamberlain> cables, then yes
[12:09] <skywalker> ok
[12:09] <Avalon_> Would going under the command line or the alternative DVD work better for this error?
[12:09] <cables> chamberlain, ok, thanks. I'll keep a backup just in case
[12:09] <llol> hello folk
[12:09] <chamberlain> avalon, why do you need the dvd?
[12:10] <llol> any one have any experience with raid0? on ubuntu install
[12:10] <llol> ?
[12:10] <chamberlain> try a cd and see if there are any problems
[12:10] <Avalon_> I'm outta CDs and they return the same error. :(
[12:10] <llol> =-O
[12:10] <cables> !raid | llol, see if your question is answered here first
[12:10] <ubotu> llol, see if your question is answered here first: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[12:10] <chamberlain> hm, thats weird
[12:10] <llol> thanks
[12:10] <Avalon_> What I don't get is that I've installed Edgy on here before and it worked fine. I haven't changed the hardware or anything..
[12:11] <sy677> Are there any other channels that are specifically for vpn?
[12:11] <chamberlain> well, i try to help people as much as possible, but i now have a question, has anyone been able to set up a hauppauge wintv-go-plus remote (also used with other cards)?
[12:12] <orionrobots> skywalker: Ok is not really sufficient. Tell us what happened please.
[12:12] <bimberi> Smashcat: look in /var/lib/amavis/quarantine
[12:12] <llol> um i did a raid install i have 2 sata drives.... did a regular partition for the /boot as well as for the swap space and did 4 partitions for the raid those being  /root = /dev/md0 and /home =dev/md1   i get the boot loader grub and it boots but gives error 17 any ideas?
[12:12] <skywalker> error message
[12:12] <skywalker> I will post at sight
[12:12] <opensourceje2> people, how can i change in Nautilus, ftp-mode into "active-mode" ?
[12:12] <orionrobots> Skywalker: good plan. And post the url here after that.
[12:13] <javiolo> hi, anyone is running the latest rtorrent ? Id like to know how to get it on 6.10

[12:19] <chamberlain> not sure about ftp though
[12:19] <Oddie> users
[12:19] <oreth> erUSUL: I'm not that hardcore :P

[12:20] <NkZ> My Issue: My Ubuntu has been acting strange these days: It randomly hangs and Reboots. I did a hardware check (Thought it was the RAM) and it was fine. Ran MemTest (Took like a LOT he he) and it was fine. Ran the Ubuntu Kernel with the "noacpi" exception and it still was hanging so now I am using the previous kernel (Something -10 besides something -11): If this one hangs on too, what else can I do?
[12:20] <cafuego_> oreth: or bluefish
[12:20] <chamberlain> try nvu
[12:21] <oreth> Bluefish.. that's the one!
[12:21] <cafuego_> nvu is awful at the very least
[12:21] <Dralid> Does anyone run the DemocracyTV on their Ubuntu machine? I just installed it and it unexpectedly closes just after starting.

[12:21] <orionrobots> skywalker: Ok - how about you just pastebin the output of lsmod?
[12:21] <Serinth> is there a way to still use apt-get dist upgrade with a kernel from kernel.org?
[12:21] <skywalker> orionrobots ok np I learnded enof you helped me out alot if you want to move on to someone els that is ok
[12:21] <cafuego_> Serinth: via `kernel-package' sure
[12:21] <skywalker> ok
[12:21] <Serinth> i didn't do that
[12:21] <skywalker> ok I will post
[12:22] <NkZ> Dralid: I tried DemocracyTV too but it was weird with me aswell. Dunno I just had to Desintall it, I think it's kinda nuts.
[12:22] <orionrobots> oreth: have you tried scite?
[12:22] <oreth> i haven't
[12:22] <oreth> does ubuntu have a quick key for executing a terminal?
[12:22] <orionrobots> oreth:It has some syntax highlighting, code completion, and is very small and sweet. Gui based.
[12:22] <Dralid> Thanks, NkZ.
[12:22] <chamberlain> nkz, if you want to watch tv, try tvtime or mythtv
[12:22] <orionrobots> oreth: Not sure, but I bet you can set one up.
[12:22] <Serinth> actually i might have
[12:23] <chamberlain> whoops thats was to dralid
[12:23] <NkZ> Dralid: Friend of mine tried it with me (Him on his PC) and he was having issues too.
[12:23] <bruenig> javiolo, so far it configured fine and is making right now

[12:23] <TaTonka> I just installed ubuntu, and when i boot it up, it gets past the loading scrreen, then the screen goes blank. what could be wrong?
[12:23] <javiolo> bruenig wow what packages did you need ?
[12:23] <chamberlain> hello lorenz
[12:24] <sy677> can someone tell me which channel to use for vpn?
[12:24] <lorenz_> can anyone give me some help checking if my fan works?
[12:24] <orionrobots> lorenz_: look up lmsensors.
[12:24] <cafuego_> lorenz_: open the case and look
[12:24] <lorenz_> I think my laptop runs pretty hot (ibm t60)
[12:24] <bruenig> javiolo, comerr-dev libcurl3-openssl-dev libidn11-dev libkadm55 libkrb5-dev libsigc++-2.0-dev pkg-config build-essential

[12:24] <ubotu> Package lmsensors does not exist in edgy, edgy-seveas
[12:24] <amonkey> what package should i install to get kdialog?
[12:24] <cafuego_> lm-sensors
[12:24] <orionrobots> !info lm-sensors
[12:24] <bruenig> javiolo, maybe some more, but those are the ones I added, not sure if I had some already that you may not have
[12:24] <javiolo> bruenig only that ?
[12:24] <ubotu> lm-sensors: utilities to read temperature/voltage/fan sensors. In component main, is extra. Version 1:2.10.0-7ubuntu3 (edgy), package size 479 kB, installed size 1472 kB
[12:24] <lorenz_> so I open a terminal and type lm-sensors?
[12:24] <lorenz_> ok, I have to install it first?
[12:25] <chamberlain> you have to install it first : sudo apt-get install lm-sensors
[12:25] <javiolo> bruenig can I pm you ?
[12:25] <orionrobots> lorenz_: Yes, install it, and read up on it. You may want to get a UI widget for it as well.
[12:25] <lorenz_> ok, thanks - will do that as soon as I got a wired connection
[12:25] <bruenig> javiolo, ok
[12:25] <chamberlain> ok
[12:25] <lorenz_> in the meanwhile, can I check it in another way - to see if the fan is activated at all?
[12:25] <LiENUS> widgets are the devils apps
[12:25] <chamberlain> just look inside lorenz
[12:26] <TaTonka> I just installed ubuntu, and when i boot it up, it gets past the loading scrreen, then the screen goes blank. what could be wrong?
[12:26] <orionrobots> I would go with chamberlain on that one..
[12:26] <NkZ> My Issue: My Ubuntu has been acting strange these days: It randomly hangs and Reboots. I did a hardware check (Thought it was the RAM) and it was fine. Ran MemTest (Took like a LOT he he) and it was fine.

(Hope I am not Spamming)
[12:26] <skywalker> orionrobots I lost the sight damm
[12:26] <lorenz_> it used to work with windows, but now I never hear the fan
[12:26] <skywalker> I will find
[12:26] <orionrobots> skywalker: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[12:26] <chamberlain> well lorenz, just look
[12:26] <oreth> filezilla = woot
[12:26] <oreth> ok.. thank's guys
[12:26] <lorenz_> look inside? sounds to simple to be true - can I see it?
[12:26] <whta> whenever I restart my x server with contrl alt backspace or if i try to log out, it takes FOREVER. what could cause that?
[12:27] <oreth> i'm out
[12:27] <oreth> take care
[12:27] <orionrobots> lorenz_: a fan? Why not. Is it a laptop?
[12:27] <lorenz_> hm, it seems to work - hot air coming out
[12:27] <orionrobots> oreth: seeya
[12:27] <lorenz_> yeah - ibm t60
[12:27] <orionrobots> lorenz_: yup - a lot of that around here...
[12:27] <robin_swe91> I have installed desktop-effects
[12:27] <robin_swe91> running 7.04 with latest updates, I get no borders around windows
[12:27] <scuderia> Tatonka, what pc have you?
[12:27] <lorenz_> but only very faint air - it seems to run at a very low level then
[12:27] <skywalker>  orionrobots: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7713/
[12:28] <TaTonka> scuderia, a compaq presario 2000
[12:28] <lorenz_> guys, I'm seriously worried though that it gets too hot - don't know any clever command to check if the fan is activated in the bios or something?
[12:28] <scuderia> have you an ATI?
[12:28] <chamberlain> install lm-sensors
[12:28] <NkZ> My Issue: My Ubuntu has been acting strange these days: It randomly hangs and Reboots. I did a hardware check (Thought it was the RAM) and it was fine. Ran MemTest (Took like a LOT he he) and it was fine. Ran the Ubuntu Kernel with the "noacpi" exception and it still was hanging so now I am using the previous kernel (Something -10 besides something -11): If this one hangs on too, what else can I do? (Hope I am not Spamming) (Anyone can help? :-P)
[12:28] <robin_swe91> I'm a nVidia user if uoi ask me
[12:28] <lorenz_> ok, chamberlain. will do :) thanks for the help
[12:28] <chamberlain> lorenz, most bioses can check it
[12:28] <NkZ> Chamberlain: I just installed LM-Sensors (Using Synaptic) How I use it?
[12:28] <chamberlain> also
[12:28] <whta> why exactly are the ATI drivers so horrible? i see so much about how ATI GPUs are crap with linux and as an unfortunate ATI owner, I'd like to know just what causes it.,.
[12:28] <lorenz_> one last question - will it shut down before the temp gets critical?
[12:29] <chamberlain> use the command sensors
[12:29] <NkZ> Chamberlain: Roger that
[12:29] <chamberlain> lorenz, i dont think thats a feature, unfortunately
[12:29] <alex_mayorga> hello all
[12:29] <chamberlain> hello
[12:29] <TaTonka> scuderia, a compaq presario 2000
[12:29] <lorenz_> I see.
[12:29] <lorenz_> ubuntu is giving me quite the headache...
[12:30] <chamberlain> well it is a change lorenz
[12:30] <orionrobots> lorenz_: that shut down should be down to the bios - not the OS.
[12:30] <lorenz_> when I have lm-sensors installed, what command do I use to get info about temp?
[12:30] <alex_mayorga> is someone that can help me to pinpoint a possible Feisty bug?
[12:30] <robin_swe91> !help deskop-effects
[12:30] <pebo_> Are there any recent (>=6.10) issues with kbd-chooser/method=$KEYMAP? I can't set the live-cd keymap but `debian-installer/locale=$LOCALE' works.
[12:30] <chamberlain> lorenz, sensors
[12:30] <amonkey> what package can provide kdialog so i can compile amarok from svn?
[12:30] <cables> Is it just me, or is Ubuntu's crash detection a bit over-sensitive? Often I get messages that Opera, Skype, or Xchat have crashed, when they really haven't.
[12:30] <robin_swe91_> I have desktop-effects errors, no window borders!!
[12:30] <NkZ> My Issue: My Ubuntu has been acting strange these days: It randomly hangs and Reboots. I did a hardware check (Thought it was the RAM) and it was fine. Ran MemTest (Took like a LOT he he) and it was fine. Ran the Ubuntu Kernel with the "noacpi" exception and it still was hanging so now I am using the previous kernel (Something -10 besides something -11): If this one hangs on too, what else can I do? (Hope I am not Spamming) (Anyone can help? :-P)
[12:30] <lorenz_> sorry for continuing to ask - but how do I do that, chamberlain - I'm really new on ubuntu
[12:30] <lemonsCC> !offtopicis it possible to install dapper and upgrade it to edgy as tho i used an edgy cd?

[12:33] <lorenz_> ok, thanks. Didn't get that the 99 times before
[12:33] <robin_swe91> thx
[12:33] <chamberlain> ok lorenz
[12:33] <TaTonka> scuderia, on the normal install disk, it did the same thing to me. I had to use the alternate install disk

[12:37] <NkZ> Help? anyone? Any Thoughts?
[12:37] <orionrobots> NKZ: Sorry it is not that you are being ignored - it is that nobody here has an idea on what to do yet...
[12:37] <smultron> fsck?
[12:37] <colbert> PriceChild: In your guide I did the first step to install the cvs then I installed the .deb, should I completely remove and install the .deb alone ??
[12:37] <PriceChild> colbert, you can just delete the cvs folder
[12:38] <colbert> where is it located ?
[12:38] <NkZ> Orionrobots: Oh. :-) Thanks. :-) Well, It's not giving any issues so far, It could be the new kernel, But I will shut up I don't wanna screw it up talking. :-)
[12:38] <tlhiv> anyone here use gallery?
[12:38] <scuderia> TaTonka, i had the same problem
[12:38] <todd2> what is a good media player for linux?

[12:38] <orionrobots> NkZ: I see crashed from time to time, which is actually why I cam eon tonight - sorry a very odd, quite visual hang.
[12:39] <nexous> Whenever I openup firefox I get the start new session, restore last, EVERY TIME.
[12:39] <scuderia> TaTonka, and what i did was when it crashed, i made ctrl-alt-f3 then in the "terminal" i edited /etc/X11/xorg.conf and changed Driver to vesa in the devices section
[12:39] <lorenz_> ok, chamberlain thanks for the help - you were the first one to give answers.
[12:39] <lorenz_> bye guys
[12:39] <chamberlain> no problem lorenz
[12:39] <orionrobots> skywalker: Can you try (not sure if this will do much): sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[12:39] <skywalker> ok
[12:39] <colbert> PriceChild: Where is the CVS folder located ??
[12:39] <TaTonka> scuderia, i just swithed to my onboard video, and it works
[12:40] <PriceChild> colbert, probably in your home
[12:40] <NkZ> OrionRobots: Visual Hang? How is that? Please elaborate: Mine just hangs, Displaying the whole desktop but the mouse won't even move.
[12:40] <scuderia> TaTonka, then, i saved and made ctrl-alt-f7 to go to the graphic window and the i made ctrl alt backspace to reboot x
[12:40] <orionrobots> !info tripwire
[12:40] <ubotu> tripwire: file and directory integrity checker. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.3.1.2.0-7 (edgy), package size 1767 kB, installed size 4640 kB
[12:40] <todd2> also, I just installed ubuntu and now I want to install the drivers for my graphics card. Where could I search for them?
[12:40] <colbert> ok
[12:40] <scuderia> anyone can help me with ATI and Beryl?
[12:40] <infidel> orionrobots, that wasn't very helpful was it?
[12:40] <orionrobots> NkZ - It looks like I had memory corruption to a frame buffer or something similar. The screen filled up with blobs and lines - however, they were all rounded - which confused me. I am used to it normally being hard edged?
[12:40] <marx2k> latest update for feisty Kubuntu killed adept installer... it segfaults uppon bootup now
[12:41] <alienware> ola
[12:41] <orionrobots> infidel: I just wanted to know what it was myself
[12:41] <NkZ> OrionRobots: Ah, Used to windows ME? :-P
[12:41] <chamberlain> hello alienware
[12:41] <infidel> orionrobots, understand
[12:41] <alienware> hello
[12:41] <orionrobots> NkZ: Absolutely not..
[12:41] <alienware> sou brasileiro e vc ?
[12:41] <orionrobots> NkZ: Humour rebooted...

[12:42] <jrib> hey who made ubotu male?
[12:42] <alienware> hello
[12:42] <NkZ> Orionrobots: Ha ha ha ha :-P Well, mine just hangs. Which is weird for Ubuntu.
[12:42] <alienware> sou brasileiro e vc  ?
[12:42] <chamberlain> hello
[12:42] <alienware> ola
[12:42] <orionrobots> Skywalker: hey - the start up looked good though..
[12:42] <chamberlain> !pt, alienware
[12:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pt, alienware - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:42] <skywalker> yes
[12:42] <alienware> ok
[12:42] <todd2> also, I just installed ubuntu and now I want to install the drivers for my graphics card. Where could I search for them?
[12:42] <mahohmei> can someone here answer a question about AD authentication to a 6.06 server?
[12:42] <chamberlain> whoops
[12:42] <orionrobots> skywalker: any joy with a sound app then?

[12:42] <marx2k> todd: what grafx card do you have?
[12:42] <cables> Is there any way to get the list of fonts Automatix installs? I'm de-automatixing my computer. I installed msttcorefonts, but websites still look ugly.
[12:42] <skywalker> let me see
[12:44] <NkZ> Orionrobots: Might be a lame question for me to ask, but tried apt-get update / upgrade?
[12:44] <alienware> alguma  brasileira ????????????/
[12:44] <marx2k> use aptitude
[12:45] <orionrobots> NkZ: Yes. But I am booting the old kernel - the new one remains off until I can be bothered to rejig the nvidia drivers locally.
[12:45] <todd2> marx2k: nvidia geforce g71?
[12:45] <sayers> The CPU Scaling device says it is not supported?
[12:45] <NkZ> OrionRobots: Ah, Yes The new kernel was giving me issues too.
[12:45] <orionrobots> NkZ: I have been tinkering with UML (User Mode Linux - not fluffy diagrams) a lot - which may have had something to do with it..
[12:45] <marx2k> todd2, look for a script called envy... it auto-does everything for you for NVidia
[12:45] <alienware> alguma brasileira  ????????
[12:45] <orionrobots> !pt
[12:45] <ubotu> pt is Por favor use #ubuntu-br  ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[12:46] <NkZ> Orionrobots: Know if there is a special room where I can ask about gdesklets?
[12:46] <orionrobots> NkZ: My best guess is #gnome..
[12:46] <NkZ> Orionrobots: Thanks. :-) I'm too noob to find my way alone. :-)
[12:46] <orionrobots> NkZ: An interesting kernel mess up is to create a VM with more memory than the physical box has..
[12:47] <skywalker> orionrobots no let see if a music cd plays
[12:47] <chamberlain> well things have seemed to die down a little, anyone have any info on using a hauppauge remote in edgy
[12:47] <orionrobots> Can lirc cope with it?
[12:48] <NkZ> OrionRobots: Damn! And Excessive VM could be the reason of why the system just hangs or reboots? acting like it was a real memory issue?
[12:48] <orionrobots> NkZ: Well the HOST kernel issues a message to all terms "Oops"..
[12:48] <chamberlain> orionbots, havent had any luck with lirc, maybe a good howto would help
[12:48] <sayers> Is there a way to have my CPU Scaled, I sortof remember how, it's in CPU0 in /sys/devices/system
[12:48] <orionrobots> NkZ: And ps, top stopped working.
[12:49] <orionrobots> NkZ: And trying to run them, or kill just hung the term they were run in.
[12:49] <orionrobots> NkZ: However, things already running, like firefox, and GAIM, just seemed to carry on just fine.
[12:49] <NkZ> OrionRobots: I will take that as a yes: Any way to solve that Issue or we have to wait for the patch?
[12:49] <skywalker> orionbots notheing
[12:50] <skywalker> its playing but no sound
[12:50] <NkZ> OrionRobots: I'm sticking with the old safe kernel in the mean time, thank you very much. :-)
[12:50] <orionrobots> skywalker: ok - lets try aplay instead: aplay `locate *.wav | head -2`
[12:50] <orionrobots> NkZ: No that Vm thing was entirely my fault - nothing to do with the .11 kernel.
[12:50] <skywalker> ok
[12:50] <infidel> orionrobots, found the informantion i was looking for with the all knowing google tool :)
[12:50] <NkZ> Orionrobots: Ahh, I see. :-)
[12:51] <orionrobots> NkZ: Making a Vm with 2Gb on a 1Gb box is a bad plan.. But an interesting experiment none the less.
[12:51] <orionrobots> infidel: good call!
[12:51] <slyfox> can someone pelase help me to isntall this? http://xoomer.alice.it/rockman81/kmobiletools/kmobiletools-svn-2007-02-27.tar.bz2
[12:51] <chamberlain> well, see you people later
[12:51] <t0dd> I have a NVIDIA GeForce Go 7900 GS and am trying to find the drivers for it.. any help?
[12:51] <marx2k> an interesting experiment in OS garbage collection ;)
[12:51] <NkZ> Orionrobots: I've messed a lot with Ubuntu too, not to that extent but yes: I've rebooted 4 times in the last 2 months
[12:51] <marx2k> t0dd: look for the 'envy' script... search for it in ubuntuforums
[12:52] <infidel> orionrobots, you reallyhave to love linux, there is no OS out there better
[12:52] <orionrobots> marxk2: I was wandering if a host kernel could swap out parts of a guest kernels memory space. The answer was a definitive no, and never try that again..
[12:52] <marx2k> lol
[12:52] <orionrobots> infidel: infinite space to try stuff and learn.
[12:52] <tm4> i've checked a couple of sites for this issue, but am curious as to if anyone knows the primary reason that gnome likes to revert to the mesa driver rather than just stick with my ati driver?
[12:53] <marx2k> tm4: what is the driver you are using in xorg.conf
[12:53] <skywalker> orionrobots:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7717/
[12:53] <orionrobots> t0dd: The restricted drivers repo should do it.
[12:53] <tm4> fglrx
[12:53] <orionrobots> !nvidia
[12:53] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:53] <marx2k> fglrx?
[12:53] <marx2k> ok
[12:53] <marx2k> have you rebooted?
[12:53] <orionrobots> !ati, tm4
[12:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ati, tm4 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:54] <tm4> yeah - it's not a major problem. i can usually either reboot or just ctrl+alt+backspace, but occasionally it just revers
[12:54] <orionrobots> Worth a shot..
[12:54] <tm4> !ati
[12:54] <marx2k> !envy
[12:54] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:54] <ubotu> envy is a Python script that eases installation of the official Nvidia and ATI drivers. Please see http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html . Developers may be interested in https://launchpad.net/products/envy - See also !Nvidia
[12:54] <orionrobots> Interesting. How "supported" is envy?
[12:55] <marx2k> orionrobots, its a 3rd party python script written by a user :)
[12:55] <marx2k> but it works wonderfully on my systems
[12:55] <tm4> hmm - if i'm using the ati fglrx driver, is there any reason not to uninstall the restricted package?
[12:55] <herold> I have 6.10 on a sony vaio centrino duo with a built in memory stick pro duo when i insert the card I get nothing where can I look for my card
[12:55] <orionrobots> Ok. I may have to try that..
[12:55] <Cosine> hey guys, if I am trying to seto and ftp server...how do I go and open the port that I need?
[12:55] <tm4> i'm checking envy out now, as well
[12:56] <skywalker> orionrobots you get url?
[12:56] <guajiro_nj> your ATI driver shouldnt revert...make sure you're booting to the same kernel each time.
[12:56] <orionrobots> Yup - looks the same as before.. No progress then :(
[12:56] <AndyR> I have 6.10, I got WINE and began installing WoW.... Unfortunately I can't eject my CD for it requires multiple CD's, Can anyone help?
[12:56] <tm4> guajiro - i am. i may have made a small error some where with xorg.conf. i've been messing with the latest release of beryl
[12:56] <Cosine> unmount it
[12:57] <skywalker> yep I never had a big problem with linux
[12:57] <marx2k> beryl for ati?
[12:57] <tm4> and it worked for a day, then i update and only get the white cube ;)
[12:57] <tm4> yeah
[12:57] <tm4> i have it working - but i use a cheap hack
[12:57] <Cosine> hey guys, if I am trying to seto and ftp server...how do I go and open the port that I need?
[12:57] <marx2k> cosine, use firestarter
[12:57] <marx2k> !firestarter
[12:57] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[12:57] <phiphe> hola
[12:57] <orionrobots> skywalker: This might be a point to raise something on launchpad support to see if some other can be of more help than I am. However - you may want to refer them to your lsmod output, and other info we have gathered.
[12:57] <skywalker> orionrobots iam out thank youfor your help soo much I learnded alot
[12:58] <Cosine> firestater?
[12:58] <phiphe> help...i have ATI
[12:58] <AndyR> Can anyone help me out? I can't eject my disc drive...
[12:58] <IndyGunFreak> !ati
[12:58] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:58] <skywalker> yes
[12:58] <Cosine> is it in Ubuntu?
[12:58] <scuderia> phiphe, whats your problem?
[12:58] <tm4> phiphe: what's up?
[12:58] <IndyGunFreak> scuderia: he has ATI...lol
[12:58] <guajiro_nj> one thing I noticed about the aticonfig command is that you can end up with multiple definitions in your xorg.conf file...make sure your driver is not defined twice and your not calling the "ati" or "raedon" one after you called your "fglrx" driver... I noticed that after loosing my driver...
[12:59] <marx2k> cosine: yeah install it through synaptic or add/remove programs
[12:59] <phiphe> i install ati drivers but doesnt work
[12:59] <scuderia> IndyGunFreak - me too :( and i cant run Beryl :(
[12:59] <phiphe> i have ATI RADEON 9600
[12:59] <orionrobots> skywalker: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+tickets - this might be your next port of call..
[12:59] <Cosine> thanks
[12:59] <IndyGunFreak> scuderia: i never got beryl to work with ATI, but I know some have.
[12:59] <AndyR> How can I get my CD to eject from the drive?
[12:59] <Ktron> Gah, Xorg hates me, I never get Xorg to work, ever
[12:59] <guajiro_nj> I did beryl last night... I get the cube to work, but no desktop on it...everything is white
[12:59] <marx2k> phiphe: same here
[12:59] <DEinspanjer> Quick question, if I want to install a 64 bit ubuntu on a machine with an Intel Core 2 Duo, do I need something other than the iso named 64-bit PC (AMD64)?
[12:59] <IndyGunFreak> AndyR: Right click drive, choose eject
[12:59] <Cosine> andy...unmount the drive
[12:59] <DEinspanjer> I don't see any other 64 bit installs...
[01:00] <phiphe> IT VERY DIFFICULT
[01:00] <skywalker> orionrobots thank you Iam greatful
[01:00] <scuderia> IndyGunFreak im almost working, biut it gives me a pixmap error :(
[01:00] <NkZ> scuderia: Did you try "https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BerylOnEdgy?highlight=%28Beryl%29"?
[01:00] <tm4> guajiro: i noticed that the device is defined twice in there as well. i changed the two device sections to include "fglrx" rather than "ati". i've been nothing but irritated with ati's drivers, but that's beside the point. i just wonder why i occasionally have the mesa drivers rather than the ati drivers. if i restart x it generally works.
[01:00] <IndyGunFreak> scuderia: you got a lot further than I did.. kept getting errors during install.
[01:00] <phiphe> il try everything...but is an impossible mission
[01:00] <guajiro_nj> besides, beryl has problems with OpenGL...when they fix that I try again...no point in having your screensaver crash your X
[01:00] <DEinspanjer> I guess maybe a better question would be: Is an Intel Core 2 Duo processor part of the EM64T architecture?
[01:00] <spasticteapot> Hello!
[01:00] <opensourceje2> people, how can i change in Nautilus, "passive-mode" into "active-mode" ?
[01:00] <tm4> guajiro: i may can help you with beryl. i've got a small script running that fixes the white cube issue - do you have an ati?
[01:00] <opensourceje2> for ftp
[01:00] <spasticteapot> Can anyone reccomend some games for Ubuntu?
[01:01] <spasticteapot> Quite a few of hem won't work properly from the Debian repositories.
[01:01] <orionrobots> Games - what kind of games?
[01:01] <guajiro_nj> tm4, yes I do
[01:01] <IndyGunFreak> spasticteapot: frozen-bubble, its in the repos.. addictive as hell.
[01:01] <orionrobots> spasticteapot: I really like tremulous
[01:01] <AndyR> Indy: Tried that, No success.
[01:01] <phiphe> somethinh help me?
[01:01] <spasticteapot> When I play Frozen-Bubble, I get the same four levels over and over.
[01:01] <Ktron> Anyone know any good reference for figuring out Xorg confs?
[01:01] <marx2k> !games
[01:01] <ubotu> Information about games on Ubuntu can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php and ubuntugames.org
[01:01] <Ktron> spasticteapot, Tuxracer! or Chromium!
[01:01] <spasticteapot> Also, I'm stuck wiht a broken ankle - I'm limited to games that are trackpad-friendly.
[01:01] <NkZ> Spasticteapot: Try Gbillard. :-)
[01:01] <spasticteapot> Chromium?
[01:01] <tm4> guajiro: how long have you been using beryl? i had it working for a few days, but with the version in the svn repo right now, i get the white cube issue - is that what's happened to you,t oo?
[01:01] <Cosine> marx2k: I dont see Firestarter in the add/remove
[01:01] <IndyGunFreak> spasticteapot: ?really... I'ev gotten a few repeats, but its great
[01:01] <orionrobots> and for small spots - enigma, kobo deluxe
[01:02] <scuderia> IndyGunFreak - see here  http://lhansen.blogspot.com/2006/10/3d-desktop-beryl-and-xgl-on-ubuntu-edgy.html
[01:02] <orionrobots> lincity too..
[01:02] <spasticteapot> IndyGunFreak: Same four levels...over and over and over.
[01:02] <tm4> scuderia: that tutorial works, but not with the current unstable version
[01:02] <Iced_Kirby> Guys, I resized my drive, now I have 4GB allocated. I am at the Install part "Prepare mount points". What do I do?
[01:02] <Ktron> spasticteapot, Chorium, sort of a mouse controlled R-Type game
[01:02] <phiphe> how made work my ati?
[01:02] <spasticteapot> Ah.
[01:02] <IndyGunFreak> spasticteapot: guess i've never noticed
[01:02] <AndyR> IndyGunFreak: I did what you said and had no success.
[01:02] <tm4> there's a little script you've gotta run
[01:02] <Iced_Kirby> 4GB Unallocated*
[01:02] <tm4> or execute or whatever you wanna say ;)
[01:02] <IndyGunFreak> AndyR: what did i say to do?..lol
[01:02] <guajiro_nj> as for the Xorg.conf file, something I've learned using ATI is once you get your driver working, copy Xorg.conf to your home directory for safe keeping...sooner or later, you're gonna mess it up.. lol
[01:03] <AndyR> IndyGunFreak: Right Click the drive and then hit eject
[01:03] <herold> I have Beryl installed and sometimes I need tochange the window manager and then back to Beryl
[01:03] <LCS-One> !bind

[01:03] <DEinspanjer> Anyone?
[01:03] <orionrobots> spasticteapot: I have burned days away with Tremolous - but then I used to be a complete half-life addict at one point a few years back..
[01:03] <phiphe> o please
[01:03] <tm4> if you've got fglrx and xgl setup correctly, but you're suffering from the white cube - try this (gimme a second to type it up)
[01:03] <AndyR> IndyGunFreak: I wouldn't be asking if I didn't
[01:03] <LCS-One> Can someone help with bind configuration on ubuntu 6.06lts-server
[01:03] <Ktron> guajiro_nj, I just can enver get one working
[01:03] <guajiro_nj> tm4 -  I have been trying to get beryl to work for the last 2-3 days now
[01:03] <tm4> (also, i assume all of your xgl scripts are running okay)
[01:03] <phiphe> ATI EASY !!!...
[01:03] <Iced_Kirby> Guys, I resized my drive, now I have 4GB unallocated. I am at the Install part "Prepare mount points". What do I do? Do I make two new partitions? What  format are they?
[01:03] <spasticteapot> No mouse = AAH! I AM FRAGGED!
[01:03] <megafauna> Hi how do I force VLC to quit? It won't shut down, I have to alt+tab to get out of fullscreen?
[01:04] <spasticteapot> Anyone know how to run Doom fullscreen?
[01:04] <spasticteapot> I'll settle for Doom at this point.
[01:04] <LCS-One> Can someone help with bind configuration on ubuntu 6.06lts-server
[01:04] <LCS-One> Can someone help with bind configuration on ubuntu 6.06lts-server

[01:04] <NkZ> Orionrobots: Dude, that's hardcore.
[01:04] <tm4> guajiro: i'm assuming you're using xgl and have written the startxgl startup script?
[01:04] <Iced_Kirby> Guys, I resized my drive, now I have 4GB unallocated. I am at the Install part "Prepare mount points". What do I do? Do I make two new partitions? What  format are they? Please help!
[01:04] <Ktron> I really just want a 'here's my hardware, this is my config' sort of website for Xorg confs, or at least some better explanation so I can try to make more educated than 'well, this one random google result says this, and this one says that, so I'll try every combination in between the two...'
[01:04] <Cosine> marx2k: I dont see Firestarter in the add/remove
[01:04] <spasticteapot> orionrobots: I have a thinkpad. I have a NIPPLEMAUS.
[01:05] <spasticteapot> Anything above doom is going to make my finger hurt.
[01:05] <marx2k> cosine: 'sudo aptitude install firestarter'
[01:05] <guajiro_nj> tm4, the scripts seem to be running fine...X starts up on :1 and I get the Beryl splash, but the cube is blank
[01:05] <orionrobots> spasticteapot - ok they do suck..
[01:05] <tm4> okay cool, then i may can help
[01:05] <spasticteapot> orionrobots: They work great for word processing.
[01:05] <jamie_> can anyone tell me how to add user to mysql for the first time after install.
[01:05] <guajiro_nj> tm4, yes I wrote the startxgl script
[01:05] <orionrobots> spasticteapot: I once tried to play lincity with a touchpad - it really messed things up..
[01:05] <Iced_Kirby> I resized my drive, now I have 4GB unallocated. I am at the Install part "Prepare mount points". What do I do? Do I make two new partitions? What  format are they? Can anybody help me? Please?

[01:05] <LCS-One> Can someone help with bind configuration on ubuntu 6.06lts-server
[01:05] <orionrobots> Spammed road all over my city..
[01:05] <LCS-One> Can someone help with bind configuration on ubuntu 6.06lts-server
[01:06] <spasticteapot> Eh..I'll have to pass on Lincity.
[01:06] <Cosine> wow, thanks man
[01:06] <Iced_Kirby> Can ANYBODY help me?
[01:06] <spasticteapot> I've played every SimCity 2000 scenario.
[01:06] <spasticteapot> No more sim city...
[01:06] <orionrobots> Ah - another interesting game that might be worth a bit of time is singularity - endgame
[01:06] <spasticteapot> Iced_Kirby: What's the problem?
[01:06] <mickz> join LBo
[01:06] <orionrobots> spasticteapot: but once completed is pretty much over..
[01:06] <tm4> guarjiro_nj: do this - gksudo gedit /usr/etc/startxglfix and type these lines (delimited by semicolons): #!/bin/sh; sleep 5; exec beryl-xgl --use-copy.    you'll notice gnome will flicker about 5 seconds after starting up, this is beryl kicking into --use-copy.    next, open up a terminal and it will probably no have window borders if so, good. now type this: beryl-manager --no-force-window-manager
[01:06] <Iced_Kirby> spasticteapot: Guys, I resized my drive, now I have 4GB unallocated. I am at the Install part "Prepare mount points". What do I do? Do I make two new partitions? What  format are they?
[01:06] <spasticteapot> orionrobots: Tried it...after a few hours, I STILL could'nt build any facilities.
[01:07] <tm4> also - make sure that you remove beryl-manager from your sessions/startup tab
[01:07] <krezlim> What good new games are there?
[01:07] <House> can someone please tell me how to set up  an ethernet connection in 6.06 ubuntu
[01:07] <AndyR> My disc drive won't open, I tried right clicking eject, and the button... What should I do?
[01:07] <orionrobots> Wow - I managed to acheive apotheosis..
[01:07] <javiolo> what package contains the ncurses lib ?
[01:07] <mickz> join #LBo
[01:07] <orionrobots> AndyR - you need to unmount it then.
[01:07] <IndyGunFreak> AndyR: aer you sure the drive is good?.. not being a smartass
[01:07] <spasticteapot> Iced_Kirby: I recall making a swap partition, and a main partition, (Reiser, in my case), and set the main partition as the boot partition.
[01:07] <bruenig> javiolo, libncurses5 and libncurses5-dev since you are compiling
[01:07] <spasticteapot> That worked well for dual-booting on my Thinkpad.
[01:07] <AndyR> Orionrobots: How do I do that?
[01:07] <guajiro_nj> tm4, thanks. I'll give that a shot right now..
[01:07] <bruenig> javiolo, I put up a howto on the forums, but it is waiting moderator approval
[01:07] <Ktron> AndyR, is there a pin hole on the front of the drive?
[01:08] <tm4> guajiro_nj: don't forget to chmod +x /usr/bin/startxglfix and add that to your sessions/startup tab
[01:08] <orionrobots> KTron: hold on - too far.
[01:08] <cwillu> !apic
[01:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about apic - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:08] <IndyGunFreak> Ktron: that was gonna be my  next suggestion.
[01:08] <oddie> Has anyone played around with Ubuntu and a MacBook?
[01:08] <cwillu> !boot
[01:08] <ubotu> Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto
[01:08] <Ktron> AndyR, if there is, you can stick a pin or straightened paper clip in there and it'll pop open (kind of a manual override)
[01:08] <javiolo> bruenig ok please  giveme the link
[01:08] <bruenig> when it is approved I will
[01:08] <orionrobots> AndyR: Try this - click Places -> Computer
[01:08] <marx2k> make sure your cdrom device is unmounted first
[01:08] <House> can someone please help set up an ethernet connection
[01:08] <spasticteapot> oddie: OSX is based on BSD.
[01:08] <Iced_Kirby> spasticteapot: So I go into GParted and make a  ext3/2 and  a linux-swap partition?
[01:08] <marx2k> that might be a reason its not ejecting
[01:08] <House> its not working
[01:08] <bruenig> I didn't realize they had this approval thing, or I would have saved it
[01:08] <spasticteapot> So I'd gues s it wikk work.
[01:08] <orionrobots> Then you should see the drive in the window there..
[01:09] <spasticteapot> Iced_Kirby: That worked for me, anywho - that's where I put the "master boot record".
[01:09] <scuderia> tm4, can u explain me better? Why dont it works?
[01:09] <t0dd> what ide does everyone recommend?
[01:09] <spasticteapot> IDE?
[01:09] <spasticteapot> Well, I prefer SATA, but...
[01:09] <tm4> scuderia: why doesn't beryl work ... is that what you mean?
[01:09] <Okapi> hello to all
[01:09] <guajiro_nj> tm4, this eventually replaces my current startxgl script correct?
[01:09] <EchoBinary> xen on edgy eft? anyone? tried: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XenVirtualMachine/XenOnUbuntuEdgy    but hit a snag
[01:09] <t0dd> integrated development environment
[01:09] <oddie> spasticteapot: yes i know but I wanted to just try and load ubuntu live ... just cause
[01:09] <orionrobots> t0dd: A tiny, but well featured IDE I like at the moment is Scite, otherwise it is Eclipse and VIM for me.
[01:10] <tm4> guajiro_nj: no leave the current startxgl there - this needs to run in addition to that
[01:10] <abisen> hi want to try ubbuntu and i had a couple of questions.. is it right that i would not need to download new iso's between different ubuntu releases and i can just upgrade using apt (eg. 6.10 to 7.10)
[01:10] <Iced_Kirby> spasticteapot: So: Main part is ext2/3 and the mount point is... /boot?
[01:10] <spasticteapot> oddie: You can run Linux on the Newton, I'd bet.
[01:10] <tm4> /usr/bin/startxglfix
[01:10] <scuderia> tm4 , you said that that tut dont work with beryl new unstable version, and im asking why, cause i followed it and gave me good resultds
[01:10] <bruenig> abisen, right
[01:10] <spasticteapot> Iced_Kirby: I don't know - I just followed the generic Linux install program.
[01:10] <Iced_Kirby> spastic: And swap part is linux-swap?
[01:10] <Okapi> I have problem running xman. Error: No manual pages found. Anyone can help?
[01:10] <spasticteapot> Yep.
[01:10] <t0dd> orionrobots: I want something like notepad++ for windows, which supports development in many programming languages
[01:10] <whta> whenever I restart my x server with contrl alt backspace or if i try to log out, it takes FOREVER. what could cause that?
[01:10] <bruenig> abisen, although it would be 6.10 to 7.04
[01:10] <jamie_> abisen : yes sudo update-manager -c
[01:10] <spasticteapot> t0dd: There's a carpload of those for Linux.
[01:10] <bruenig> abisen, you can't jump two versions
[01:10] <tm4> scuderia: i'm not exactly sure why the latest unstable version doesn't work on ati cards (i've no idea if it does or not with nvidias). i read a thread on the beryl forum sayinjg something about one of thep plug-ins being broken, but i've really no idea.
[01:11] <abisen> bruenig, is it also right that I would be able to install some rpm's if I cant find the deb file's (like intel compilers, and other stuff )
[01:11] <orionrobots> t0dd: Then scite is probably the simplest - but spasticteapot is right, there are many.
[01:11] <erUSUL> t0dd: emacs, vim, gvim, scite, gedit, nedit........
[01:11] <jamie_> no
[01:11] <scuderia> ok, thanks tm4
[01:11] <spasticteapot> t0dd: Ever fancied programming a microcontroller?
[01:11] <abisen> bruenig, but i can upgrade incrementally ... that would be good enough
[01:11] <bruenig> abisen, you can alien the rpms if you want, I generally just compile if there aren't debs
[01:11] <spasticteapot> Linux has a free AVR C compiler.
[01:11] <spasticteapot> Beats paying $250 for getting a compiler for Windows.
[01:11] <bruenig> !alien
[01:11] <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)
[01:11] <scuderia> does anyone knows if  Feisty Fawn will beryl as default?
[01:11] <megafauna> Hi can someone recommend a good intro to the file system? I'm nost even sure where to install d/l'd apps to.. /newb
[01:11] <tm4> scuderia: i don't think it will be
[01:11] <Ktron> Ah, Xorg is stopping me from using linux... how sad is that?... Ah well, /afk I go
[01:11] <bruenig> scuderia, #ubuntu+1
[01:11] <IndyGunFreak> scuderia: i doubt it..
[01:12] <IndyGunFreak> it might though.
[01:12] <abisen> bruenig, alien ? but some times the only type distributed is rpm
[01:12] <orionrobots> spasticteapot: It is a shame that familiar does not yet support my pocketPC - parts of the chipset are nt yet supported - otherwise it would be using Linux too..
[01:12] <bruenig> scuderia, I think the approach is to make it really easy but not to include it by default
[01:12] <spasticteapot> megafaun: / is the default "start" point, a lot like C.
[01:12] <bruenig> abisen, alien is a program that will convert rpms to deb but is not 100%
[01:12] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: i agree, its to resource heavy to make it default
[01:12] <spasticteapot> orionrobots: Feh! Linux runs on Gumstix!
[01:12] <spasticteapot> And I know where you can get some cheap touchscreens....
[01:12] <bruenig> IndyGunFreak, well the opposition is more philosophical than that, with the binary drivers and such
[01:12] <orionrobots> spasticteapot: I like the gumstix. BrickOS is linux like - runs on the RCX - that is hardcore... Lego + Linux..
[01:13] <scuderia> i heard that it iwll have better wireless configuration, cause using xsupplicant to config WPA can sometimes be a bit hard
[01:13] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: yeah, but you ahve to admit, i've got a point..lol
[01:13] <EchoBinary> xen on edgy eft? anyone? tried: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XenVirtualMachine/XenOnUbuntuEdgy    but hit a snag
[01:13] <abisen> bruenig, so that would be the only catch .. here we get a couple of properitery rpm based apps .. (small ones) but they would need to be used
[01:13] <IndyGunFreak> sicne the appeal of linux, is it works with older hardware
[01:13] <orionrobots> spasticteappot - you do?
[01:13] <bruenig> well yeah I will be going xubuntu maybe even fluxbuntu, I love my resources
[01:13] <spasticteapot> I do what?
[01:13] <megafauna> Hi how do I force VLC to quit? It won't shut down, I have to alt+tab to get out of fullscreen?
[01:13] <t0dd> is scite included with an ubuntu installation?
[01:13] <spasticteapot> I'm learning C for the PICmicro, actually.
[01:13] <orionrobots> You know where you can get cheap touchscreens?
[01:13] <spasticteapot> I traded a box of chocolates for a $400 developer kit.
[01:13] <bruenig> abisen, you can install rpms, I just don't do it generally. A lot of people use rpm
[01:13] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: i run xubuntu on a 1ghz Laptopl, works very well, and very lean
[01:13] <spasticteapot> Ah, yes...
[01:14] <orionrobots> spasticteapot: I was given an Xgamestation today..
[01:14] <spasticteapot> Xgamestation?
[01:14] <t0dd> I search for scite in Synaptic and I get no results
[01:14] <bruenig> I run it on a 2.3 ghz desktiop
[01:14] <IndyGunFreak> abisen: can you compile whatever it is you're looking for?
[01:14] <orionrobots> spasticteapot: not sure what I will do with it.. yet.
[01:14] <tm4> beryl is nice, but still freaks out a lot - gdm randomly restarting
[01:14] <spasticteapot> bruenig: I run Xubuntu on my 1ghz Pentium-M.
[01:14] <krfkeith> hi
[01:14] <krfkeith> im ne to ubuntu
[01:14] <bruenig> is this a who has the weakest resources competition
[01:14] <spasticteapot> eh?
[01:14] <krfkeith> sorry for the typo
[01:14] <spasticteapot> I started running Linux on a 366mhz Celeron.
[01:14] <abisen> IndyGunFreak, some times the sources are not available to compile ? unfortunately
[01:14] <krfkeith> im new to ubuntu
[01:14] <spasticteapot> I win.
[01:15] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: lol
[01:15] <orionrobots> spasticteapot: http://www.xgamestation.com/ (it is a bit animation-tastic but gives you an idea)..
[01:15] <bruenig> !hi | krfkeith
[01:15] <krfkeith> and i need a little help
[01:15] <ubotu> krfkeith: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[01:15] <t0dd> orionrobots: why wouldnt I get any results for scite when searching for it in synaptic?
[01:15] <whta> yeah well i run linux on paperclips and string
[01:15] <krfkeith> thanks
[01:15] <nano> anybody familiar with qemu? please help
[01:15] <IndyGunFreak> abisen: i have no doubt of that.
[01:15] <spasticteapot> Ah....SX key.
[01:15] <bruenig> krfkeith, just throw it out there
[01:15] <IndyGunFreak> abisen: what are you trying to find.
[01:15] <orionrobots> !info scite
[01:15] <ubotu> scite: Lightweight GTK-based Programming Editor. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.69-1ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 778 kB, installed size 1956 kB
[01:15] <clearze2> I've been following a few walkthroughs online to log on without a password using ssh but I can't get it to work. Can someone help me?
[01:15] <nano> anybody familiar with qemu? please help
[01:15] <nano> anybody familiar with qemu? please help
[01:15] <megafauna> krfkeith: just *new and we'll know it's a correction
[01:15] <krfkeith> well my first question is if someone could tell me how to setup a landline
[01:15] <tm4> i'm out guys, ttyl
[01:15] <spasticteapot> I spent $40 on a single-board computer that can just run Linux.
[01:15] <orionrobots> t0dd: There you go - it is in universe
[01:15] <abisen> IndyGunFreak, just want to try out Ubuntu have heard a lot of good things abt it never used it earlier (had used debian a long time back)
[01:16] <spasticteapot> For $130, you can get a Mini-ITX board with video out.
[01:16] <bruenig> krfkeith, you mean dial up or what?
[01:16] <krfkeith> i mena using ethernet
[01:16] <artis> hello ... can anyone help me ? i can't install ubuntu on my asus loptop it hangs on boot, cd is ok
[01:16] <krfkeith> i have a cable modem
[01:16] <spasticteapot> abisen: Try Xubuntu if you have a slower machine.
[01:16] <EchoBinary> I have an R1F
[01:16] <spasticteapot> Xubuntu rocks, but it has a few annoying bugs.
[01:16] <abisen> IndyGunFreak, so was asking some q's to clear up my queries
[01:16] <IndyGunFreak> abisen: easiest thing to do, is use packages in the repositories, there's a gazillion of them.
[01:16] <guajiro_nj> tn4, thanks for the script
[01:16] <orionrobots> spasticteapot: What I really want to get my hands on (when finance allows) is the Archos PMA400 (or is it the 450)...
[01:16] <krfkeith> it recognizes my card
[01:16] <bruenig> yeah like not being able to log out without freezing
[01:16] <abisen> spasticteapot, i have a very powerful machine
[01:16] <oddie> could bye an xbox 1 and run linux off it...
[01:16] <spasticteapot> abisen: Try Kubuntu or generic-Ubuntu.
[01:16] <whta> whenever I restart my x server with contrl alt backspace or if i try to log out, it takes FOREVER. what could cause that?
[01:16] <krfkeith> and whenever i activate the connection it doesn't do anything
[01:17] <spasticteapot> I actually like XFCE better, but it's a shade buggy.
[01:17] <IndyGunFreak> spasticteapot: i've never had any probs with it(although I do prefer Gnome)
[01:17] <krfkeith> if anybody could help
[01:17] <abisen> spasticteapot, i dont like KDE a whole lot ... have'nt had very nice past experiences with Kde

[01:18] <spasticteapot> The only real problems I have with XFCE is that A. it's hard to edit the launcher menu, and B. you can't drag things on and off the desktop properly.
[01:18] <bruenig> krfkeith, perhaps nobody knows the answer
[01:18] <spasticteapot> They should be fixed soon, though.
[01:18] <krfkeith> do u?
[01:18] <megafauna> artis: that might not be your problem, but it could be a start
[01:18] <infidel> tjl30, what's the error?
[01:18] <whta> whenever I restart my x server with contrl alt backspace or if i try to log out, it takes FOREVER. what could cause that?
[01:18] <spasticteapot> Anyone know when GNOME and KDE became so bloated?
[01:18] <bruenig> spasticteapot, you wimp, just make a .desktop file and put it in /usr/share/applications
[01:18] <spasticteapot> bruenig: Sorry?
[01:18] <tjl30> when I hit the icon for updates the little orange thing
[01:18] <tjl30> it prompts for my password
[01:18] <spasticteapot> bruenig: I tried that - the editor is buggy.
[01:19] <bruenig> spasticteapot, the editor? mousepad?
[01:19] <infidel> tjl30, ok, then?
[01:19] <orionrobots> tjl30: It is meant to ask for your password then.
[01:19] <spasticteapot> I clicked on the "edit" button on the launcher.
[01:19] <artis> megafauna my cd is ok i think there was a problem with hardware coz i cudnt instal knopix debian or any other linux
[01:19] <whta> whenever I restart my x server with contrl alt backspace or if i try to log out, it takes FOREVER. what could cause that?
[01:19] <spasticteapot> I'm holding out for clickand-drag.
[01:19] <spasticteapot> The only real problem is that I keep forgetting what games I have installed.
[01:19] <tjl30> then I get an error pop up
[01:19] <tjl30> error
[01:19] <bruenig> spasticteapot, no not that, go to /usr/share/applications, that is where the menu entries are at. You can create new ones or modify all you need to in there
[01:19] <Vilhelms> When running World of Warcraft through cedega any other application would not be able to play sounds, so I ran a sound test in the Sound Preferences and it gave me this error http://pastebin.ca/raw/373787
[01:19] <spasticteapot> D'oh!
[01:19] <infidel> tjl30, what pasword are you using?
[01:19] <CreepyCrawly> tjl30, can you be more specific i just came
[01:20] <spasticteapot> Still...click-and-drag? Why not?
[01:20] <IndyGunFreak> spasticteapot: if you're a fan of the old breakout game, install LBreakout2
[01:20] <guajiro_nj> tm4, if you're still here - that script did the trick.
[01:20] <tjl30> saying E: Type 'sudo' is not known on line 37 in source list /etc/apt/source/list
[01:20] <megafauna> artis: if you ran linux on your comp with the live cd first then it probably isn't the comp, cuz it worked before. I assume that you're on a second comp now, maybe try to fix the mbr. /me newb too
[01:20] <spasticteapot> IndyGunFreak: I've been in bed for the past two days with pretty much nothing but a Thinkpad.
[01:20] <spasticteapot> I need something new!
[01:20] <bruenig> spasticteapot, you just have to edit text files. They are pretty self explanatory though. What I usually do is open a .desktop file of a similar application and just edit it appropriately for my new one. So if it is an internet application, just edit firefox.desktop and save it as something else
[01:20] <tjl30> E: The list of sources could not be read.
[01:20] <ctothej> how do I stop ubuntu from turning off my monitor
[01:20] <ctothej> ?
[01:20] <orionrobots> tjl30: sounds like your sources list is broken.
[01:20] <CreepyCrawly> spasticteapot, what thinkpad model
[01:20] <ctothej> seems like a 30 minute timeout
[01:21] <spasticteapot> X40.
[01:21] <artis> magafauna: at the moment i have installed debian partly without x and desktop should i reformat the partition ?
[01:21] <tjl30> it says Go to the repository dialog to correct the problem
[01:21] <CreepyCrawly> i love T42 & t43
[01:21] <cobar> spasticteapot: find some flash games online
[01:21] <IndyGunFreak> spasticteapot: lbreakout2 is cool, i love the old breakout game... and i tworks great.. but it might be hard to play with a touchpad
[01:21] <CreepyCrawly> they are the best laptops in the world
[01:21] <cobar> there have to be some good ones
[01:21] <spasticteapot> I don't even have a touchpad - that's the other problem.
[01:21] <CreepyCrawly> spasticteapot, play enemy territory
[01:21] <nano> anybody familiar with qemu? please help
[01:21] <nano> anybody familiar with qemu? please help
[01:21] <spasticteapot> CreepyCrawly: Will that run on my crappy intel integrated graphics?
[01:21] <orionrobots> Ok - tjl30 - go to System->Administration->Software sources
[01:21] <artis> magafauna: i haven;t ran ubuntu at all on this loptop
[01:22] <artis> it hangs
[01:22] <CreepyCrawly> spasticteapot, try it :)
[01:22] <spasticteapot> May as well..
[01:22] <orionrobots> spasticteapot; Maybe you need to play nethack...
[01:22] <orionrobots> :p
[01:22] <megafauna> Hi how do I force VLC to quit? It won't shut down, I have to alt+tab to get out of fullscreen?
[01:22] <spasticteapot> orionrobots: Tried it...could'nt get into it.
[01:22] <spasticteapot> I miss being able to tell the GM: "So, he thinks he's tough? I flick boogers at him!"
[01:23] <infidel> tjl30, open console and type sudo apt-get update and let me what happens
[01:23] <spasticteapot> That said, if anyone knew of a version of OpenRPG that actually ran under ubuntu, that would be nice.
[01:23] <orionrobots> spasticteapot: It never did quite compare to real RPG'ing did it..
[01:23] <IndyGunFreak> spasticteapot: what about planet penguin racer?
[01:23] <spasticteapot> Been playing it - I suck.
[01:23] <CreepyCrawly> bah
[01:23] <orionrobots> No bloomin racing penguins..
[01:23] <orionrobots> They really are a bit of a bore..
[01:23] <spasticteapot> IndyGunFreak: I keep missing the stupid herring....
[01:24] <tjl30> E: Type 'sudo' is not known on line 37 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:24] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[01:24] <IndyGunFreak> spasticteapot: another one i like, is Ksnakerace
[01:24] <Iced_Kirby> What do I put for Mount Point for the Root and for the swap?
[01:24] <spasticteapot> Ksnakerace?
[01:24] <IndyGunFreak> and obviously kirstet(tetris)
[01:24] <spasticteapot> Hopefully it will run...
[01:24] <bruenig> tjl30, do this, sudo sed 's/sudo//g' -i /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:24] <marx2k> root = /
[01:24] <CreepyCrawly> spasticteapot, then you should play sudoku
[01:24] <IndyGunFreak> spasticteapot: its annoyinglys imple, but gets very hard.. and with a touchpad, it might be hard
[01:24] <marx2k> swap = swap :)
[01:25] <Iced_Kirby> When I put / it says "No root file system"
[01:25] <orionrobots> I like sudoko - I wander if there is an app that does "killer" style soduko..
[01:25] <spasticteapot> Seriously, though...does anyone know if there's a version of OpenRPG that works under Ubuntu?
[01:25] <spasticteapot> Or, for that matter, how I can run Doom fullscreen?
[01:25] <CreepyCrawly> orionrobots, i bought a handheld sudoku game
[01:25] <infidel> tjl30, look at the source.list file on line 37 and see what is there
[01:25] <CreepyCrawly> heh
[01:25] <Iced_Kirby> When I put / it says "No root file system"

[01:35] <marx2k> yep
[01:35] <Iced_Kirby> tanlaan: I don't think so

[01:38] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[01:38] <tjl30> dicked up?
[01:38] <rubbs> I *may* be able to help you
[01:38] <infidel> yeah
[01:39] <tjl30> ok I can't save the sources.list files after I edited it
[01:39] <Flannel> Iced_Kirby: what's your question?
[01:39] <tjl30> it says read only
[01:39] <bruenig> tjl30, you need to gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list then you should be able to save it
[01:39] <Iced_Kirby> flannel: Time for copy and paste: I made a 3GB ext2 and a 1GB linux-swap partition. I am intalling Ubuntu right now, I am at the "Prepare mount points". What do I do?
[01:39] <gopp> but I can't seem to figure out why it didn't boot after isntall
[01:39] <IndyGunFreak> tjl30: sudo gedit /path to file/
[01:39] <Flannel> tjl30: you need to open it as a super user, use gksudo or sudo, dpeending on your program you're editing it with
[01:39] <bruenig> gksudo
[01:39] <gopp> ppc ubuntu
[01:39] <infidel> tjl30, you need to edit as sudo
[01:39] <tanlaan> anyone know how to change the gamma settings under ubuntu
[01:40] <chad> Any Xfce experts? I have to manually start xfwm4 after logging in and I now that's not right but I don't know where to look.
[01:40] <rubbs> Iced_Kirby: I don't really think I've ever had to do that...  but I think you flag the /boot to the partition you want to boot from
[01:40] <Flannel> Iced_Kirby: Er... specify your 3GB partition as /, then the 1GB as a swap partition?  Or am I not understanding
[01:40] <bruenig> chad, put it in the startup applications
[01:40] <Frogzoo> tanlaan: you got ati?
[01:40] <rubbs> Iced_kirby:  Opps... yeah... you want to flag it as /
[01:40] <javiolo> !soulseek
[01:40] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about soulseek - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:40] <infidel> Frogzoo, you have an ati issue?
[01:40] <Iced_Kirby> rubbs: Which one?
[01:40] <TaTonka> who can tell me the correct way to put XGL and kiba dock on ubuntu
[01:40] <superkirbyartist> Hello there, how can we manage partitions?
[01:40] <Frogzoo> infidel: nope
[01:40] <Iced_Kirby> rubbs: The ext2 or the swap?
[01:40] <bruenig> TaTonka, perhaps #ubuntu-effects
[01:41] <chad> really, bruenig? That seems too obivous! :)
[01:41] <superkirbyartist> I need a partition creator.
[01:41] <infidel> superkirbyartist, cfdisk
[01:41] <rubbs> Iced_Kirby: the ext3 or ext2
[01:41] <superkirbyartist> infidel: graphics?
[01:41] <CaptainMorgan> where does ktorrent default its downloads to? I just downloaded something and it says it's complete.. but I can't find it
[01:41] <infidel> superkirbyartist, no
[01:41] <IndyGunFreak> superkirbyartist: what about qparted?
[01:41] <tanlaan> Frogzoo: i have no idea... >.<
[01:41] <Flannel> Iced_Kirby: the swap partition is for swap, the other (one you want to install to) is /
[01:41] <gopp> !kubuntu > CaptainMorgan
[01:41] <Iced_Kirby> rubbs: When I do that in the mount points ( / is the ext2 and swap is swap) it says "No root file system"
[01:42] <bruenig> CaptainMorgan, it doesn't by default put anything anywhere, its default behavior is to ask you where to put it. You have to configure it to autosave
[01:42] <superkirbyartist> Indyguyfreak command not fount... is it gfx and installable?
[01:42] <Flannel> Iced_Kirby: altough, traditionally, ext3 is default, not 2, but it'll work fine.
[01:42] <bruenig> CaptainMorgan, but you should be able to look through the preferences to see where that is, if for some reason it has been configured to autosave
[01:42] <Iced_Kirby> Flannel: When I do that in the mount points ( / is the ext2 and swap is swap) it says "No root file system"
[01:42] <IndyGunFreak> superkirbyartist: yoiu probably need to install it.
[01:42] <rubbs> Iced_Kirby: The swap is basically a place for virtual memory... in a manner of speaking
[01:42] <superkirbyartist> bruenig that installed a virus.
[01:42] <CaptainMorgan> thanks bruenig
[01:43] <Flannel> Iced_Kirby: right, that's a bug.  Uh, I believe the workaround is to go back a step, then come back to it and set it again.  But, I don't really remember.
[01:43] <superkirbyartist> Can I make Mac OS partitions?
[01:43] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, what?
[01:43] <Iced_Kirby> Flannel: Okay...
[01:43] <IndyGunFreak> superkirbyartist: what installed a virus?
[01:43] <superkirbyartist> He made me do a sudo rm *.*
[01:43] <nero> question- I am about to migrate from a Fedora Core 5 install to Ubuntu.  I have a blank internal drive, that would like to transfer my home directory to for backup (so that I can do a totally clean install of Ubuntu).  Is it as easy as copying the home dir to the drive, installing ubuntu, then copying the files back? or is there a better way that takes into consideration permissions, etc.
[01:43] <Iced_Kirby> Flannel: Please pray for me that I don't destroy my computer. Please
[01:43] <bruenig> oh you are the one who said I hacked your computer like a month ago
[01:43] <Taime1> i have a dell laptop with a broadcom (lspci tells me its broadcom) wireless card.... but ubuntu doesnt install the driver for it... is it possible to install the driver for this wireless card?
[01:43] <LCS-One> superkirbyartist: wow, you'd be screwed if you did rm -rf /
[01:43] <IndyGunFreak> superkirbyartist: i have a hard time believing he intentionally installed a virus on your PC
[01:44] <superkirbyartist> How do I install a Mac OS partition?
[01:44] <infidel> nero, is /home on it's own partition?
[01:44] <rubbs> Iced_Kirby: Sorry I don't know a whole lot about it... and unfortunatly I have to go.
[01:44] <mindstate> !wireless | Taime1
[01:44] <ubotu> Taime1: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[01:44] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, you don't install partitions? that is hardware
[01:44] <marx2k> !ndiswrapper | Taimel
[01:44] <ubotu> Taimel: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[01:44] <nero> infidel, it is, but is ex2, and I would like to reformat it to ext3..
[01:44] <LCS-One> !sendmail
[01:44] <IndyGunFreak> superkirbyartist: just curious, you just leveled an accusation at brunig for supposedly hacking your PC, and yet you want people to help you
[01:44] <Iced_Kirby> flannel: It still says No root file system
[01:44] <ubotu> sendmail: powerful, efficient, and scalable Mail Transport Agent. In component universe, is extra. Version 8.13.8-2 (edgy), package size 191 kB, installed size 248 kB
[01:44] <ryanakca> how would I rotate 25 images by 180%? I have imagemagick installed
[01:44] <Iced_Kirby> flannel: should I start installation over?
[01:44] <rubbs> Iced_Kirby: Good luck!  I'll pray for your system
[01:44] <userund> nero: should be as easy as that.  but I'd forego keeping config files and such of gnome/gtk or kde since there would likely be conflicts between the distros.  if program versions are the same, normal programs should be fine
[01:45] <superkirbyartist> It doesn't matter, I just installed ubuntu again... it's a computer for sale.
[01:45] <superkirbyartist> How do we make mac os partitions?
[01:45] <gopp> any here know if I have to do anything special to boot from ubuntu ppc
[01:45] <IndyGunFreak> superkirbyartist: well, i'm sure you'll figure it out
[01:45] <bruenig> ha
[01:45] <superkirbyartist> How can I do a right click from the keyboard?
[01:45] <Iced_Kirby> rubbs: It still says No root file system
[01:45] <superkirbyartist> It's an iMac mouse after all.
[01:45] <nero> userund, gotcha..  I'm not terribly worried about the config stuff.. other than my thunderbird mail, but that should transfer fine i'd think.
[01:45] <IndyGunFreak> superkirbyartist: click it with your right hand
[01:45] <superkirbyartist> Indygunfreak, iMac mouse.
[01:45] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, depends on the keyboard, on my keyboard there is a little menu thing by the right control key
[01:45] <Flannel> Iced_Kirby: ah, found it.  you'll need to delete that partition, and then recreate it.
[01:45] <infidel> nero, i thought you could upgrade to ext3 without distrying the data
[01:46] <Iced_Kirby> flannel: which one?
[01:46] <superkirbyartist> bruenig: sorry, but imac keyboard.
[01:46] <Flannel> Iced_Kirby: the ext2 one (/)
[01:46] <bruenig> get a real keyboard
[01:46] <Iced_Kirby> flannel: Okay, I'll try that now
[01:46] <nero> infidel, I probably can, but I'd also like to make the partition a little bigger.. and figure, it might be time to just do a wipe and clean install.
[01:46] <IndyGunFreak> superkirbyartist: you're aparently still under the illusion we're trying to help you
[01:46] <mindstate> lmao
[01:46] <IndyGunFreak> superkirbyartist: try right clicking your monitor
[01:46] <Flannel> bruenig: "real" keyboards don't have that key, only windows keyboards do.  Don't be so asinine.
[01:46] <tjl30> fantastic it works now
[01:46] <tjl30> thanks guys
[01:47] <infidel> nero, i see
[01:47] <infidel> nero, just do a backup then
[01:47] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: i don't really blame you, thats a pretty serious accusation, and if yu're gonna say it, you should have something to back it up
[01:47] <nero> one last question- I noticed that ubuntu is only one CD.  Are most of the packages online, etc??  (guess I am used to downloading 4-5 cds for FC, 95% of which I dont use ;) )
[01:47] <superkirbyartist> Isn't that a shame?  I had to run upstairs to get a MICROSOFT mouse.
[01:48] <Iced_Kirby> Flannel: Should it be ext3 or 2? The docs say 2 is for small partitions, the partition is only 3GB
[01:48] <bruenig> it is funny two because I can't imagine what *.* would match, except I guess if you are in the home directory
[01:48] <IndyGunFreak> nero: most of the packages are easily installed via the repositories(you'll need internet access, but its easy)
[01:48] <bruenig> but even then, that would just delete the configs, which remake themselves
[01:48] <Flannel> Iced_Kirby: ext3 is the norm nowadays, I don't think anyone really uses ext2 anymore
[01:48] <superkirbyartist> I have Gparted, how can we split partitions?
[01:48] <Iced_Kirby> flannel: Then I go for 3?
[01:48] <nero> IndyGunFreak, that what I figured.. :)  Just wanted to make sure before making the leap!
[01:48] <hne> hi
[01:48] <Flannel> Iced_Kirby: sure
[01:48] <hne> sikimi yiyin
[01:48] <hne> trkiSh
[01:48] <hne> man
[01:48] <infidel> Iced_Kirby, the only partition i would make ext2 would be /boot
[01:48] <bruenig> s/two/too/
[01:48] <Iced_Kirby> flannel: What happened to /?
[01:48] <IndyGunFreak> nero: its pretty easy, bu tit does install a few packages from the get go
[01:48] <IndyGunFreak> Firefox, GIMP, etc..
[01:49] <shazam> is it safe to install ubuntu
[01:49] <yomm> a heavy reverb has suddenly appeared on all my sound . I examined the ALSAMIXER but couldn't find anything reverb/echo related .. any ideas ?
[01:49] <shazam> and upgrade to unstable?
[01:49] <nero> IndyGunFreak,  I have been suffering under Yum with FC for so long.. I am just hoping Ubuntu is a little nicer..
[01:49] <bruenig> shazam, I wouldn't call it safe being two months out, maybe #ubuntu+1 would be better at answering
[01:49] <IndyGunFreak> nero:  been there done that before I made the leap my friend, you're gonna love Synaptic
[01:49] <Flannel> shazam: Feisty?  Feisty is alpha software, it's stable day-to-day, you should ask in #ubuntu+1
[01:49] <mindstate> nero, APT is gawd
[01:50] <Cloudy> !apt
[01:50] <ubotu> APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[01:50] <Cloudy> !Synaptic
[01:50] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[01:50] <EchoBinary> an echo?
[01:50] <yomm> yum
[01:50] <nero> ahh good.. so Ubuntu is apt.. I like apt..
[01:50] <yomm> !botsnack
[01:50] <ubotu> Yum!
[01:50] <bruenig> echo more generally
[01:50] <IndyGunFreak> !yum
[01:50] <ubotu> yum: Advanced front-end for rpm. In component universe, is extra. Version 2.4.0-3.1 (edgy), package size 197 kB, installed size 960 kB
[01:50] <yomm> :)
[01:50] <mindstate> lol that was cool
[01:51] <EchoBinary> :-D
[01:51] <IndyGunFreak> mindstate: what was?
[01:51] <mindstate> !botsnack
[01:51] <ubotu> Yum!
[01:51] <mindstate> that
[01:51] <mindstate> lol
[01:51] <yomm> !aptitude
[01:51] <ubotu> aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT, like apt-get. However, aptitude can remember the dependencies installed with a package and remove them if you uninstall. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptitudeSurvivalGuide
[01:51] <IndyGunFreak> oh, i just got that...lol, hilarious
[01:51] <Iced_Kirby> flannel: It worked now. All I have to do is click install.......
[01:51] <yomm> !ubuntu-nl
[01:51] <mindstate> haha
[01:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntu-nl - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:51] <Flannel> !nl
[01:51] <ubotu> Nederlandstalige ondersteuning voor Ubuntu (en vers gezette koffie) is te vinden in #ubuntu-nl
[01:51] <Iced_Kirby> flannel: Should I click?
[01:52] <mindstate> does alien have a good .rpm to .deb conversion rate? or does it only work sometime
[01:52] <userund> mindstate: everytime I've tried it's worked
[01:52] <bruenig> !alien | mindstate sometimes compile if you can
[01:52] <IndyGunFreak> mindstate: i've had a 50/50 success rate
[01:52] <ubotu> mindstate sometimes compile if you can: 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)
[01:52] <Cloudy> Ooh. That reminds me that I need to install Alien.
[01:52] <mindstate> ok thanks guys
[01:53] <andre> sup folks
[01:53] <mindstate> i only used it one time and it worked
[01:53] <IndyGunFreak> Cloudy: its like installing WIne to use WIndows packages, try to use a native debian package
[01:53] <bruenig> !howdy | andre
[01:53] <ubotu> andre: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[01:53] <Iced_Kirby> Flannel: What about the "GRUB will be installed to (hd0)" ? Do I leave that alone?
[01:53] <andre> Does anyone know if ubucon was videotaped?
[01:53] <bruenig> IndyGunFreak, not quite the same but ok
[01:53] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: its pretty similar, other than deb and rpm are linux
[01:53] <mindstate> andre, maybe youtube?
[01:53] <marx2k> Iced_Kirby,  how many HD's you got?
[01:53] <Comrade-Sergei> bruenig something a little less clunky like the one in vista?
[01:54] <marx2k> is hd0 where your system boots from?
[01:54] <Cloudy> IndyGunFreak: Oh, I know, I just like having the option open
[01:54] <andre> mindstate:  13 sec vid only
[01:54] <bruenig> well and wine is a compatibility layer that allows you to run windows programs, whereas alien just converts packages
[01:54] <Iced_Kirby> marx2k: One. It's in partitions though
[01:54] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: true.
[01:54] <marx2k> yeah then its hd0
[01:54] <bruenig> Comrade-Sergei, I have not seen the vista one, maybe a screenshot would help
[01:54] <Iced_Kirby> marx2k: Okay, wish me luck installing!
[01:54] <IndyGunFreak> Anyone know where i can get a .deb file of the game secondlife?
[01:55] <marx2k> you want grub to be put on your boot drive.. whatever partitions youre booting goes into /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:55] <IndyGunFreak> i thought it was in the repos
[01:55] <marx2k> !secondlife
[01:55] <jlamr> b
[01:55] <Frogzoo> !appdb | IndyGunFreak
[01:55] <Iced_Kirby> marx2k: So it stays as hd0?
[01:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about secondlife - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:55] <Comrade-Sergei> bruenig hold on
[01:55] <ubotu> IndyGunFreak: Appdb is a database of apps & help for programs that run under wine: see http://appdb.winehq.org
[01:55] <infidel> anyone like rap here?
[01:55] <marx2k> Iced: yep
[01:55] <Iced_Kirby> marx2k: Okay
[01:55] <mindstate> ooo thats nice
[01:55] <marx2k> Iced: Its just asking where your MBR is at
[01:55] <IndyGunFreak> Frogzoo: i didn't run it with Wine
[01:55] <marx2k> which, if you only have one hard drive, is hd0
[01:56] <ohir> anyone knows if postgresql 8.2.x will be backported to 6.06 LTS?
[01:57] <Flannel> ohir: most likely not
[01:57] <ohir> thx Flannel.
[01:57] <Comrade-Sergei> bruenig http://img62.imageshack.us/img62/5616/avistasidebarprebeta2scrn0lk.jpg
[01:57] <Iced_Kirby> Its installing!
[01:57] <Iced_Kirby> 34%
[01:57] <DEinspanjer> I'm sorry folks, I had to run away to take care of baby.
[01:58] <bruenig> Comrade-Sergei, yeah that looks pretty much like gdesklets, just pick your widgets right
[01:58] <marx2k> Iced what partitions do you have?
[01:58] <marx2k> I typically have 2... the main linux which is '/' and then the swap which is fswap
[01:58] <Comrade-Sergei> bruenig but tis so sleek
[01:58] <DEinspanjer> Did anyone answer my question about whether the ubuntu 64-bit PC (AMD64) iso is the right one to download for an Intel Core 2 Duo chip?
[01:58] <Iced_Kirby> marx2k: Two, ext2 and swap. I followed the docs and IRC help
[01:58] <bruenig> Comrade-Sergei, there are some sleek gdesklet configurations
[01:59] <marx2k> why didnt you use ext3?

[01:59] <Iced_Kirby> marx2k: I mean ext3 :P
[01:59] <bruenig> Comrade-Sergei, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Gdesklets.png
[01:59] <Iced_Kirby> marx2k: I mean ext3 and swap
[01:59] <marx2k> ok :)
[01:59] <bruenig> Comrade-Sergei, I mean that one is overdone on purpose, but you get the idea
[01:59] <colbert> how do I add a "My Computer"-like icon to my desktop so I can explore my drives/filesystem when I double click it ??
[02:00] <Iced_Kirby> marx2k: I hope this works...
[02:00] <marx2k> colbert: you using gnome or kde?
[02:00] <colbert> marx2k: gnome
[02:00] <Comrade-Sergei> bruenig ill check it out thanks
[02:00] <marx2k> colbert: add a new folder to the desktop, point it to /media
[02:01] <colbert> marx2k: How do I change what it points to ??
[02:01] <marx2k> right click and go to properties :)
[02:02] <colbert> marx2k: yes I do that but it only tells me where it points to, I cannot change it
[02:02] <marx2k> Hm....
[02:03] <marx2k> type this into console 'ln -s /media ~/Desktop/WhateverYouWant
[02:03] <marx2k> '
[02:03] <oddie> has anyone created a media centre from ubuntu?
[02:03] <riotkittie> oh god. i've been lured to the dark side. ive spent more time in win xp today than i have in the 3months since i went back to linux :\
[02:04] <koiron> i'm trying to find out if ubuntu will support my notebook's 1280x768 widescreen resolution...  anyone know? :D
[02:04] <marx2k> if your vidcard supports it, ubuntu will support it
[02:04] <riotkittie> koiron : yea, it should. you may need to tweak xorg but
[02:05] <koiron> an ATI X600 64mb is in the notebook
[02:05] <marx2k> <-- ATI 9600 Radeon in an HP nc6000 notebook @ 1280x768
[02:05] <Taime1> i have a widescreen
[02:05] <Taime1> and ati card
[02:06] <Taime1> worked right out of the box
[02:06] <koiron> sweet! :)
[02:06] <koiron> thanks guys
[02:06] <Taime1> actually, worked better than windows did
[02:06] <koiron> now here's my other question...
[02:07] <Cloudy> What could cause this? "checking whether the C compiler (gcc  ) works... no" I've got the latest gcc package..
[02:07] <koiron> i'm gonna resize the 80gb ntfs partition, how much space shud i give ubuntu?
[02:07] <mjg> hi - can anyone help me set up a printer using ubuntu?
[02:07] <AndrewB> !inittab
[02:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about inittab - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:07] <AndrewB> hmm
[02:07] <Raider1> Uhh, stupid question .. What do I have to apt-get to get all the gcc man pages ?? .. I did an apt-get install gcc-4.1-doc but it seems I'm still not getting the manpages for anything in C or C++
[02:07] <infidel> mjg, what sems to be the problem?
[02:07] <marx2k> koiron: Thats a question only you can answer
[02:08] <colbert> marx2k: Okay it worked but it goes to the "media" folder instead of *inside* the media folder, how could I do that ?
[02:08] <marx2k> colbert: did you type 'media' or /media'
[02:08] <mjg> It's shared w/ samba from a windows xp machine, and I can run the setup wizard OK, and find the printer, but when I finish, it doesn't appear in the list of printers (only "Install New Printer" is there, still)
[02:09] <colbert> I typed /media
[02:09] <infidel> mjg, which printer?
[02:09] <mjg> it's a canon mp600
[02:09] <marx2k> colbert: all of your drives should be in /media
[02:09] <koiron> i'd like to keep all my documents and everything on my windows ntfs.  i'd like to use ubuntu as obviously an alternative to xp and see how well it works for me, perhaps in the future removing windoze
[02:09] <infidel> mjg, which driver are you using?
[02:10] <riotkittie> ok. save me from myself.  ive just discovered the wonder of ati's extended desktop, and i am liking this. A LOT. enough to keep me in winXP for the last three or four hours. and really, ive spent about 20 mins total in win in the last four months.  my laptop's graphics chip is a lousy ati mobility m1, and ati's snazzy linux drivers will not work for me :(  is it going to be possible to get extended desktop under ubuntuuuu?  <weep>
[02:10] <marx2k> koiron: 5 gigs? 7?
[02:10] <riotkittie> i seem to recall messing around with Xinerama a few months ago but having no success.
[02:10] <koiron> is that how much ubuntu normally requires with some spare space?
[02:11] <mjg> thx infidel... I'm using the driver for the Canon iP4200.  I downloaded the ppd from canon's ftp site
[02:11] <marx2k> koiron: I think ubuntu installs to like 3 gigs or something
[02:11] <colbert> marx2k: Yes, they are it works great, just wondering if it can open the media folder itself and show its contents directly instead of showing the folder media
[02:11] <marx2k> maybeless
[02:11] <koiron> thanks marx2k
[02:12] <marx2k> colbert: not sure what you mean... so the folder media is inside the folder media??
[02:13] <colbert> marx2k: Sorry, what I mean is when I double click "Computer" (my folder I made) it shows the folder Media, and I have to double click it to see the drives and all.. I want to double click "Computer" and see media's contents already instead
[02:13] <oddie> koiron: I have installed on a 20gig because I have a windows partition that i can't write too....

[02:13] <koiron> oddie, can't u mount the windows partition in ubuntu?
[02:14] <oddie> koiron: yep its mounted but NTFS so I can't write to it...
[02:14] <gdb> ntfs?
[02:14] <oddie> koiron: I download files then copy to a server
[02:14] <koiron> hmm
[02:14] <marx2k> colbert: just move the Media folder out to the desktop and  remove Computer, then rename Media to Computer :)
[02:15] <koiron> so if im running xp on a ntfs partition... im kinda screwed?
[02:15] <oddie> is there currently a supported NTFS writing system at the moment?
[02:15] <marx2k> linux can read ntfs but not write to it
[02:15] <marx2k> oddie I think so but not very well
[02:15] <koiron> now i'm sad :|
[02:15] <colbert> marx2k: LOL, I wasn't born yesterday, I swear it.. lol thanks that's the answer ;)
[02:16] <usuario> usuario
[02:16] <rbil> oddie: I was reading last week that fuse (a driver that reads/writes to ntfs) has gone stable
[02:16] <oddie> markx2k: any software I have found there has been warning when installing saying that data can be lost.....
[02:16] <marx2k> ;)
[02:16] <LordKeiden> oddie: i installed a package , ntfs3 i think, that gives rw access to linux for ntfs. i have been using it for a few weeks, no problems for me.
[02:16] <oddie> rbil: sweet
[02:16] <marx2k> oddie: thats a warning that comes with any software that deals with hard drives
[02:17] <marx2k> but Id back shit up :)
[02:17] <kitche> rbil: true but it's the same version that was unstable :P
[02:17] <oddie> 600gig to backup....
[02:17] <gdb> rbiil: for which versions of ntfs?
[02:17] <mjg> infidel, I followed instructions from http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Canon-PIXMA_MP600
[02:17] <kitche> !ohmy | marx2k
[02:17] <ubotu> marx2k: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[02:17] <marx2k> we're all adults here, I would think
[02:17] <oddie> rbil: i'll look into fuse
[02:17] <mjg> but I don't get any error message, or any printer, or anything
[02:17] <oddie> rbil: thanks
[02:17] <rbil> gdb: sorry, no idea. I don't use ntfs, so didn't pay much attention to the news release

[02:18] <ataq> hey anyone use the ati x1950PRO 250MB on Ubuntu?
[02:19] <jlamr> will ubuntu automatically detect wifi access points like windows, or do I need some other packages
[02:19] <JamesG> Can anyone suggest some CD burning software? Not looking for "the best", but just some to pick from :)
[02:20] <userund> JamesG: bonfire, k3b
[02:20] <Taime1> autodetects for me jlamr
[02:20] <bruenig> JamesG, k3b gnomebaker, or if you like command line cdrecord is fun
[02:20] <mjg> jlamr, me too
[02:20] <JamesG> Thanks
[02:20] <robbie_crash> What is causing this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7608/  And how can I fix it?
[02:20] <keex> hello.

[02:21] <ubotu> billy: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[02:21] <marx2k> !k3b | jamesg
[02:21] <ubotu> jamesg: k3b is a feature-rich and user-friendly burning application for KDE (and, as all KDE applications, works fine on GNOME). For a guide, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/K3BHowto
[02:21] <billy> bruenig, thanks
[02:21] <ataq> kitche: why so? I want a new graphics card, high end. And Nvidia is too dear
[02:21] <bruenig> !thanks | billy
[02:21] <ubotu> billy: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[02:21] <billy> =-] 
[02:22] <Gast243> Hey there
[02:22] <rbil> ataq: Nvidia is better supported with Linux. What price range you looking at? What type of card?
[02:22] <Gast243> I need some support... :(
[02:22] <mjg> infidel, any idea?
[02:22] <atomiku> Gast243: then get some
[02:23] <ataq> rbil: I have a 6600. I want to spend about 220 max
[02:23] <Gast243> May I get some right here? :<
[02:23] <billy> anyone help w/ evolution?
[02:23] <atomiku> Gast243: yes
[02:23] <atomiku> just ask
[02:23] <keex> I compiled my own kernel, since then I get errors from dpkg -> http://phpfi.com/208817
[02:23] <robbie_crash> I have a broken VMWare-Player install that I cannot reinstall over, remove, or properly run software updates until I solve the issue
[02:23] <robbie_crash> but I have no idea what is causing it, nor how to fix it
[02:24] <Gast243> The problem is: Everytime I'm plugging in an external Hard Disk via USB ( File format: FAT / FAT 32 ) ubuntu gets stuck and I need to do a complete restart
[02:24] <billy> regarding evolution, i have two email accounts, really mine and my wifes.  evolution puts it all together under "on this computer>inbox".  how can i separate the accounts?
[02:24] <rbil> robbie_crash: you probably upgraded your kernel and the kernel-modules for vmplayer aren't there
[02:24] <keex> I can't get fuse configured
[02:24] <robbie_crash> The output for my problem is here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7608/
[02:24] <Taime1> robbie_crash, i learned how to completely uninstall a program including the configuration files, woule that help?
[02:24] <robbie_crash> Taime1: it might
[02:25] <rbil> robbie_crash: does this look like your situtation? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=358275&page=3
[02:25] <robbie_crash> rbil: I installed vm after my last kernel upgrade
[02:25] <rbil> read that link
[02:25] <billy> regarding evolution, i have two email accounts, really mine and my wifes.  evolution puts it all together under "on this computer>inbox".  how can i separate the accounts?
[02:25] <andre> Does anyone know if ubucon was videotaped?
[02:25] <mjg> OK - so my printer will not install properly.  It's shared from an XP machine, and I can run the add-printer-wizard, and everything looks ok, but afterwards: no printer.  Any ideas anyone?
[02:26] <eobanb> which one do you guys recommend; xchat, or xchat-gnome
[02:26] <Gast243> no one has an answer? =(
[02:26] <Gast243> or at least a suggestion?^^
[02:26] <billy> eobanb, i never used xchat-gnome
[02:26] <mjg> Gast243: does your computer just lock up completely?
[02:27] <Gast243> mjg: yes
[02:28] <arkanjul> IF anyone has a sec - I am having trouble with xorg - "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" - is giving me "Permission Denied" (I am the Admin) - I have 6.10.
[02:28] <mjg> I can only suggest checking /var/log/messages and /var/log/syslog after you reboot to see if anything showed up before it died
[02:28] <mjg> if the drive works with other computers and so on
[02:28] <TheVault> Hello guys, I have a few questions about Ubuntu that I did not think up until the other day, anybody able to help answer my 2 questions I have?
[02:28] <Gast243> mjg: It does.. It also worked on that one before I've installed ubuntu
[02:29] <robbie_crash> !anyone
[02:29] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[02:29] <billy> regarding evolution, i have two email accounts, really mine and my wifes.  evolution puts it all together under "on this computer>inbox".  how can i separate the accounts?
[02:29] <arkanjul> What is a packed command for newest xorg version?
[02:29] <mjg> Gast243: not sure, sorry
[02:30] <meleahbee> i updated my kernel to the latest generic one, and now i dont have sound, at first my X11 wasnt working so i had to use my backup conf
[02:30] <Gast243> mjg: I've just completely reinstalled ubuntu... Maybe there was something wrong with the previous installation
[02:30] <TheVault> Question 1: I dual booted WinXp and Ubuntu before but screwed myself up when linux was being a jerk(at least on my end anyway) and when I tried to remove the grub boot loader, I did not know what to do. I found some information that using fixmbr or something like that with the CD removes that, is that what your suppose to do?
[02:30] <marx2k> meleahbee, play with alsamixer
[02:30] <mjg> my printer will not install properly.  It's shared from an XP machine, and I can run the add-printer-wizard, and everything looks ok, but afterwards: no printer.  Any ideas anyone?
[02:30] <marx2k> make sure your PCM is turned on
[02:31] <tonyyarusso> When switching from console (Ctrl-Alt-F1) to Gnome (Ctrl-Alt-F7) and back, my music (rhythmbox) pauses very briefly.  Is there a way to avoid this?
[02:31] <marx2k> TheVault: What do you want the end result to be?
[02:31] <meleahbee> marx2k: i am trying the options through "sound preferences" and testing them all and getting no sound output
[02:31] <marx2k> tonyyarusso, up the buffer value maybe?
[02:31] <tonyyarusso> marx2k: How?
[02:31] <marx2k> meleahbee, type alsamixer in console
[02:31] <timfrost> arkanjul: what are you trying to do?  If you want to edit xorg.conf, you need to do so with 'sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf' or 'gksu gedit  /etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[02:32] <TheVault> marx2k: If anything ever goes wrong with Ubuntu or something, I wanna be able to use Windows as my primary os again until I get the guts to fiddle with linux again
[02:32] <marx2k> tonyyarusso, its software dependent so I really wouldnt know..check prefs in there
[02:32] <tonyyarusso> marx2k: poking in options now
[02:32] <marx2k> TheVault: Grub loader will still be on there
[02:32] <marx2k> just make sure that your /boot directory is intact
[02:32] <TheVault> What if I wanna remove that
[02:32] <TheVault> Grub Boot Loader
[02:32] <marx2k> you can install XP's bootloader over it
[02:33] <TheVault> with the fixmbr command on the cd recovery mode?
[02:33] <marx2k> yup
[02:33] <TheVault> Alright, Thank you....gotta think of my 2nd question i wuz about to ask
[02:34] <robbie_crash> rbil: That thread did not help me since I cannot remove, reinstall, or configure vmware-player at all
[02:34] <a5benwillis> robbie_crash: Why cant you reinstall?
[02:34] <robbie_crash> I have no idea
[02:35] <rbil> robbie_crash: if you ran an earlier kernel, you should be able to reinstall
[02:35] <TheVault> Question 2: I am going to be trying to get my broadcom 43xx wireless network card to work. Iv used Ubuntu & LIVE CD before and found that it shows device unknown when I was searching for what internet devices of what I had but found the ethernet port just fine. If I screw anything up in Ubuntu, is there a system restore feature like XP that you can go back in time?
[02:35] <a5benwillis> what does it tell you?
[02:35] <robbie_crash> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7608/
[02:35] <robbie_crash> I haven't upgraded my kernel in probably a month
[02:35] <rbil> robbie_crash:  what kernel u running now? 'uname -r'
[02:35] <robbie_crash> and this vmware deal started happening the other day
[02:36] <robbie_crash> 2.6.7-11-generic
[02:36] <a5benwillis> robbie_crash: Have you tried reinstalling from source instead of apt-get?
[02:36] <Jevon> I just installed the deprec gem on my fresh Dapper install, but it didn't install 'deprec_dotfiles' along with it (as every install doc/readme says it will). Anyone in here experienced with Deprec on Dapper?
[02:36] <marx2k> TheVault, Im not sure what you could really screw up... you just want to use ndiswrapper
[02:37] <marx2k> whatever you do, just work backwards and you have no problem
[02:37] <arkanjul> I need a repository for xorg 11 - anyone have one?
[02:37] <robbie_crash> a5benwillis: no
[02:37] <piclez> hi, how can I clean a txt file content without deleting it please? :)
[02:37] <sivik_> why can't i get linux-headers for my current version of the kernel, anything above 2.4 isn't present
[02:37] <sivik_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7732/
[02:37] <robbie_crash> I just want to remove it though, not reinstall
[02:38] <TheVault> marx2k: Yeah, I have a few tutorials bookmarked and things on how to do all that. But when I was using the LIVE CD, I was coming into a lot of errors and things. Is it common for people with Broadcom Network Cards to show up as Broadcom unknown device?
[02:38] <Ponyboy> Hello
[02:38] <marx2k> I think so, until they use ndiswrapper :)
[02:38] <naut> If I want to run a command line program from another process
[02:38] <bruenig> arkanjul, ubuntu main?

[02:38] <Ponyboy> Does anyone here need help with anything?
[02:38] <naut> how can I do that?
[02:38] <sivik_> marx2k, what card?
[02:38] <naut> I need to run some kind of pseudo terminal programmatically

[02:40] <Ponyboy> I didn't know what the trigger was
[02:40] <robbie_crash> marx2k: you mean remove vmware-player? Same thing
[02:40] <Ponyboy> This is my first time on IRC.
[02:40] <sivik_> naut: already have that installed
[02:40] <dkbg> Its similar to what happened when I installed dapper
[02:40] <dkbg> It gives me the options for installing, the ubuntu logo appears with a progress bar, then I get a blank screen
[02:40] <marx2k> robbie_crash,  right but have the system do it for you
[02:40] <marx2k> then reinstall
[02:41] <naut> oh well
[02:41] <numist> Ponyboy: why do you need ops?
[02:41] <dkbg> the thing is that with dapper I could reach a CLI, but with the edgy installer I cannot even do that
[02:41] <Ponyboy> I don't need ops. I didn't know what the trigger was for.
[02:41] <Soccer5555> whats the worst that could happen if you install beryl on a labtop
[02:41] <TheVault> marx2k: what should I do if I screw up something when I go changing something when getting my wireless network card to work?
[02:41] <marx2k> dkbg: describe your system
[02:41] <robbie_crash> marx2k: $ aptitude remove vmware-player
[02:41] <skywalker> Iam a very slack user I agree
[02:41] <robbie_crash> right?
[02:41] <marx2k> TheVault: Remember what you did...work backwards :)
[02:41] <Ponyboy> this is my first time on IRC.
[02:41] <marx2k> backup your config files before you edit them
[02:41] <dkbg> marx2k: I'm pretty sure its the same ati issue I had with dapper
[02:41] <bruenig> Ponyboy, how did you know what ops were then
[02:41] <Doomedelite> ops = admins
[02:42] <marx2k> robbie: Yep
[02:42] <Ponyboy> Hmmmmm...I get it.
[02:42] <marx2k> robbie: also use the purge command
[02:42] <dkbg> marx2k: its a toshiba satellite laptop, ati radeon mobility x700
[02:42] <TheVault> alrighty. well dinner is done so I'll be back in here tomorrow, Thanks everyone for helping :D
[02:42] <Ponyboy> Now, quit bothering me about the ops.
[02:42] <Doomedelite> cya
[02:42] <TheVault> later
[02:42] <marx2k> dkbg: weird

[02:42] <Doomedelite> dumb question: How do I upgrade my firefox to 2.0.0.2 from 2.0.0.1?
[02:42] <marx2k> Purge <package>: remove it and all its associated configuration and data files.
[02:42] <billy> problem with evolution solved -- switched to thunderbird.
[02:42] <marx2k> robbie: are you doing it with sudo?
[02:42] <Ponyboy> mostly because I don't know how to start it in seamokney for OS X.
[02:43] <dkbg> marx2k: I could reach a command line in dapper with ctrl + alt + F#, and I edited xorg.conf and replaced the "ati" driver with vesa
[02:43] <IndyGunFreak> Doomedelite: it should come in the updates when its ready
[02:43] <bruenig> Doomedelite, get the tar.gz and install in /opt if you really need it
[02:43] <dkbg> marx2k: my problem now is that I can't even get to a command line with edgy
[02:43] <Doomedelite> Thanks
[02:43] <aixing> Doomedelite: that isnt an upgrade to start with
[02:43] <robbie_crash> marx2k: Yep
[02:43] <aixing> :P
[02:43] <marx2k> robbie: What does it tell you?
[02:43] <IndyGunFreak> aixing: lol.. that would be a downgrade
[02:43] <bruenig> aixing, note where "to" and "from" is

[02:45] <Ponyboy> I have a MacBook, I am currently in Mac OS 10.4.8, but I was wondering if anyone knows how to get the internet working in Knoppix on a MacBook using either Airport or just a regular Ethernet through a router. I tried both of them but none of them worked. I can't use the modem because it's connected to a lot of computers that need the internet.
[02:45] <billy> will desktop work if I uninstall evolution?
[02:45] <skywalker> me antie got mo sound

[02:45] <bruenig> aixing, wrong
[02:45] <zero88> Ok, if i put my wireless card on monitor mode,how would i put it back to regular mode?

[02:46] <marx2k> robbie_crash, force vmware to stop first
[02:46] <Ponyboy> no it isn't!!!!
[02:46] <billy> bruenig, if I go to uninstall evolution, synaptic also says I have to uninstall "gnome desktop environment".
[02:46] <Ponyboy> lOL
[02:46] <skywalker> Ponyboy
[02:46] <robbie_crash> marx2k: How?
[02:46] <Doomedelite> Ponyboy: Search in www.ubuntuforums.org, or make a new post if you can't find the answer.
[02:46] <bruenig> billy, it shouldn't say that, do sudo apt-get remove evolution
[02:46] <marx2k> robbie_crash, 'ps ux | grep vmw'
[02:46] <marx2k> then killall whatever the command name is
[02:46] <Ponyboy> I banged your moms!!!
[02:46] <marx2k> 'killall commandname'
[02:46] <zpertee> anyone running asterisk on ubuntu?
[02:46] <aixing> Ponyboy: that is flooding and be careful cos u could get kicked
[02:46] <bruenig> billy, if it says it will remove ubuntu-desktop, then don't worry about it
[02:46] <Danni> hey complete linux/ubuntu noob so sry for the stupid questions, but where can i find a download for beryl?
[02:47] <bruenig> !beryl | Danni
[02:47] <ubotu> Danni: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[02:47] <billy> bruenig, ok.
[02:47] <timfrost> sivik_: From the paste you did, it appears that you are searching for 'kernel-headers*', while ubuntu uses linux-headers (try 'apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)' )
[02:47] <Danni> thank you
[02:47] <sivik_> timfrost, just figured it out, thanks
[02:48] <Dumahen> i will ask a lil question! i downloaded firefox 2.0.0.2 tar.gz how can i install it ?

[02:48] <bruenig> Dumahen, do you really need it? if so extract it and put it in /opt
[02:48] <skywalker> I was trying to googley for wine but I dident know what one to get and I forgot if I had to dule boot in order to run wine ?
[02:48] <billy> bruenig, apt-get remove did it w/out prompting gde uninstall.  you were right thanks.

[02:50] <zpertee> anyone running asterisk on ubuntu?  I can't seem to get it installed
[02:50] <tonyyarusso> Dumahen: that wiki page has detailed steps for installing any firefox other than what's available in the repos (including new versions, test betas, etc.)
[02:50] <robbie_crash> doing killall vmware yeilds "no process killed"
[02:50] <dkbg> anyway, can someone help me with my edgy install problems? I just need to get to be able to get to a command line and I may be okay from there
[02:50] <marx2k> robbie_crash, hm so vmware isnt running at ALL?
[02:50] <robbie_crash> not as far as I can tell
[02:51] <zero88> Ok, if i put my wireless card on monitor mode,how would i put it back to regular mode?
[02:51] <marx2k> so I wonder how when youre uninstalling it, it's stopping certain services but others it is failing
[02:51] <skywalker> vmware not free?
[02:51] <dkbg> maybe I could try some kernel arguments with F6?
[02:51] <billy> Dumahen, check out http://technowizah.com/2006/11/debian-how-to-update-firefox.html
[02:51] <mEck0> I wonder how I can disable the fading-effect when minimizing/maximizing windows in gnome? I have checked the System | Preferences | Window menu, but haven't find a setting for it there
[02:51] <marx2k> like how is it stopping services that arent running?!
[02:51] <gopp> hey any one here installed ubuntu on a ppc

[02:55] <clearze2> I'm trying to use the --exclude-from option to excluded directories in a backup. However it never actually excludes the directories I name in the file. I put one directory per line and use foo1/ to exclude the directory. What am I doing wrong?

[02:58] <Hal> is there a prferred way of installing apache... using apt-get gives me exit error 1
[02:59] <Regner> Is there any way to have it so that when you log into proftpd it shows you a list of possible directories instead of just logging you into one ? What i am trying to do is have it so that a user has access to their home dir and a something like /export/public/ftppublic ?
[03:00] <MatrixMon> Does anyone know where I can find a list of what the dirs are?
[03:00] <zero88> how do i set my wireless card to promiscuous mode
[03:00] <marx2k> MatrixMon,  what do you mean?
[03:00] <bruenig> what dirs
[03:00] <robbie_crash> marx2k: Yes I'm running the config with sudo
[03:00] <Hal> is there a prferred way of installing apache? using apt-get gives me exit error 1
[03:00] <MatrixMon> As var as /var
[03:00] <marx2k> robbie: thats weird
[03:00] <rbil> robbie_crash: looks to me like the vmmon driver hasn't compiled, still an object file ... /lib/modules/2.6.17-11-generic/misc/vmmon.o
[03:00] <Flannel> Hal: apt-get is the preferred method.  What are you apt-getting?
[03:00] <marx2k> MatrixMon, you want to know what their functions are?
[03:00] <bruenig> ls MatrixMon you could do ls -R /
[03:00] <Hal> apt-get install apache
[03:01] <bruenig> that will list all the dirs
[03:01] <Flannel> Hal: `sudo apt-get install apache2` is probably whta you want
[03:01] <Megaqwerty> can anyone tell me how to set up hpna in Ubuntu?
[03:01] <robbie_crash> rbil: so What can I do since I can neither reinstall or remove?
[03:01] <Hal> ok thanks
[03:01] <happytron> bash trivia night! which substitution for XXX in the following script causes it to print "true" when $x is the name of a file ending in .c:  if XXX; then echo "true"; fi;
[03:02] <rbil> robbie_crash, I'm not really sure, but maybe copy the vmmon.ko from your /lib/modules/2.6.17-11-generic/vmware-player/ directory to /lib/modules/2.6.17-11-generic/misc/ dir
[03:03] <robbie_crash> rbil: and then what?
[03:03] <rbil> then vmplayer will probably work
[03:03] <rbil> try rebooting after copying
[03:03] <marx2k> I wish i could help you more but I use vmware-server

[03:04] <rbil> robbie_crash: also check with locate for vmnet.ko
[03:05] <robbie_crash> rbil: that's in the /lib/mod....../vmware too
[03:05] <robbie_crash> cp that to ...../misc/ as well

[03:07] <l2s> anyone using a realtek nic with ubuntu and getting weird sleep
[03:07] <syberdave> marx2k: yeah, that's in the xorg.conf but nothing happens when i try to move the mouse
[03:07] <marx2k> check your dmesg and/or /var/log/Xorg.0.log to check for errors
[03:08] <marx2k> also run lsmod to see if the synaptics module is loaded

[03:09] <shatrat> chuleta, why not just reinstall ndiswrapper?
[03:09] <marx2k> chuleta: cant you apt-get install ndiswrapper?
[03:09] <syberdave> and modprobe says there's no "synaptics" module
[03:09] <chuleta> did that...
[03:10] <marx2k> syberdave, what distro you running on liveCD?
[03:10] <chuleta> shatrat: did that
[03:10] <marx2k> chuleta: purge and reinstall

[03:10] <Flannel> that's what you wanted ;)
[03:10] <marx2k> yeah it is :)
[03:11] <syberdave> that'd be great if i was able to install ubuntu
[03:11] <Doomedelite> I'm like half-way through installing flashplugin-nonfree, and it keeps freezing. And until this install is finished, I can't install anything else. I'm doing "sudo dpkg --configure -a", but as I said before, it keeps freezing. is there anyway to just delete my install request for this file, so I may continue using the package manager?
[03:11] <chuleta> marx2k: no, still does not work
[03:11] <syberdave> is there a text-mode installer?
[03:11] <marx2k> syberdave, for ubuntu?
[03:11] <syberdave> yeah
[03:11] <marx2k> Hmmm
[03:11] <meleahbee> I have no sound, I have tried marx2k suggestion of alsamixer with no results.  I had sound before i upgraded to the latest generic kernel.  Any suggestions
[03:11] <marx2k> isnt that an option during bootup?
[03:11] <syberdave> well, there's a "safe mode graphics"
[03:12] <syberdave> but that still boots X
[03:12] <marx2k> meleahbee, your PCM is on in alsamixer, right?
[03:12] <rbil> robbie_crash: if u remove those /dev/vm*'s it shouldn't hurt anything. vmware will rebuild them when the server starts up again
[03:12] <marx2k> syberdave, isnt there a text mode?
[03:12] <marx2k> I thought there was
[03:12] <meleahbee> marx2k: yes it is
[03:12] <syberdave> i guess i'll reboot and find out
[03:12] <marx2k> meleahbee, and the pcm volume is raised, yes?
[03:12] <robbie_crash> rbil: but if I'm trying to remove vmware totally, could that fix things?
[03:12] <timfrost> syberdave:, marx2k: the installer on the alternate CD is text-mode
[03:12] <meleahbee> marx2k: to the max
[03:12] <marx2k> syberdave, run the installer from console
[03:13] <marx2k> meleahbee, and your mixer is OSS?
[03:13] <meleahbee> marx2k: it says mm underneath, would that be mute be any chance?
[03:13] <marx2k> mm is the ON OFF switch... if its highlighted, its on,... if its just plain MM, its not
[03:13] <syberdave> hm, i guess i'll mess with this some other day. i don't have much time. i guess i'll deal with vista for now
[03:13] <marx2k> actually OO means on
[03:13] <marx2k> MM means off
[03:13] <syberdave> thanks everyone
[03:13] <marx2k> so yours is off :)
[03:13] <meleahbee> its not highlighted
[03:14] <rbil> robbie_crash: I don't understand why you're having a hard time removing, and I'm not sure that is going to fix removal, but it's worth a try I guess
[03:14] <chuleta> so like I said before I'm having ndiswrapper troubles (modprobe says module not found)... I purged and reinstalled and still no dice
[03:14] <robbie_crash> rbil: I don't understand why either, but every time I try it doesn't
[03:14] <rbil> robbie_crash: have you tried stopping vmware-player prior to removing?
[03:14] <rellik> on boot, there was an error message saying "failed to initialize HAL!" What is HAL?
[03:14] <marx2k> meleahbee, right-key to it and hit 'M'
[03:14] <Doomedelite> how do I cancel an installation request? It keeps telling me to dpkg -configure -a, but It freezes.
[03:14] <marx2k> to turn it on
[03:14] <marx2k> then try it again
[03:14] <cables> robbie_crash, are you trying to remove vmware?
[03:14] <syberdave> and yeah, no text-installer. "Start or install ubuntu", "start ubuntu in safe graphics mode", "check cd for defects", "memory test", "boot from first hard disk"
[03:14] <meleahbee> thank you marx2k i was just about to ask

[03:18] <marx2k> youre asking a bot to tell someone to not ask a question about asking a question

[03:18] <dwhsix> weird.  where do I find gawk?  tovid wants transcode which wants gawk, but: The following packages have unmet dependencies:  transcode: Depends: gawk but it is not installable
[03:18] <cables> i never thought about it that way
[03:18] <whta> is the ntfs write support worth getting yet?
[03:19] <marx2k> robbie_crash, kill 4692
[03:19] <DJ_Gentoo> I wondered whether it was NVidia only because of the name...
[03:19] <marx2k> DJ_Gentoo, I thought it was
[03:19] <DJ_Gentoo> "envy" in talian is "invidia"... from the site
[03:19] <cables> DJ_Gentoo, I think it works with both now.
[03:19] <DJ_Gentoo> *Italian
[03:19] <DJ_Gentoo> so it does
[03:19] <meleahbee> how do i find out what job ID an application is if it does not show up on top
[03:19] <DJ_Gentoo> ps ax
[03:19] <robbie_crash> YAY!
[03:19] <blueglue> i have install a new mobo and amd 64 today when i try to install xp it powers off after 2 mins same with 2oo, but linux works fine ...totally confussed do i return the stuff or not?
[03:19] <DJ_Gentoo> meleahbee: ps ax
[03:20] <robbie_crash> Thanks both of you
[03:20] <chuleta> like i said before can someone send me a copy of ndiswrapper.ko?
[03:20] <marx2k> ps ux | grep <application>
[03:20] <DJ_Gentoo> actually, ps ax | grep <application name>
[03:20] <marx2k> whats the diff between ax and ux
[03:20] <DJ_Gentoo> gaaah! beat me to it
[03:20] <DJ_Gentoo> no idea
[03:20] <robbie_crash> marx2k:  and rbil thanks a lot!
[03:20] <meleahbee> thank you, marx2k and dj_gentoo
[03:20] <DJ_Gentoo> I've always learned it ax
[03:20] <DJ_Gentoo> yw
[03:20] <marx2k> robbie: no problem
[03:20] <marx2k> meleahbee,  no problem
[03:20] <rbil> robbie_crash: what happened? I missed it :-)
[03:20] <DJ_Gentoo> or just use the system monitor
[03:20] <whta> is the ntfs write support worth getting yet?
[03:21] <lemonsCC_> brb
[03:21] <marx2k> hm time to go home from school :D
[03:21] <cables> !ntfs-3g
[03:21] <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)
[03:21] <clearze2> I'm having problems excluding files with rsync can anyone help
[03:21] <cables> whta, it works, but like it says, it's beta.
[03:21] <DJ_Gentoo> !rsync
[03:22] <ubotu> rsync: fast remote file copy program (like rcp). In component main, is standard. Version 2.6.8-2ubuntu3 (edgy), package size 237 kB, installed size 472 kB
[03:22] <whta> is there any significant risk to using it now if I don't intend to do anything out of the ordinary with it?
[03:22] <Regner> could any one help me with proftpd or direct me where to get support ?
[03:22] <DJ_Gentoo> dern... nothing usful
[03:22] <DJ_Gentoo> *useful
[03:22] <whta> i've seen people recommend it but at the same time i've heard people caution against it
[03:22] <clearze2> trust me I've look at the man pages
[03:23] <cables> whta, I'm not sure... I've used NTFS write to get me out of some tight spots, in Knoppix, but it might cough on certain disks or something like that.
[03:25] <cafuego_> clearze2: --exclude=somedir/ --exclude=otherdir ...
[03:25] <robbie_crash> rbil: Checking for processes that were vmw* turned up nothing
[03:25] <robbie_crash> but there was a vmnet one
[03:25] <robbie_crash> and after killing that
[03:25] <robbie_crash> everything went awesome
[03:25] <clearze2> cafuego_: I have been using that syntax however for some reason it still copies the files
[03:25] <rbil> great
[03:27] <koth> HI there
[03:27] <badagentx> Why can't Amarok play mp3's while xmms can?
[03:27] <linux_kid> How do I get Windows running in VMplayer from an already installed windows?
[03:28] <rbil> badagentx: you need the mp3 codecs. xmms has them builtin
[03:28] <koth> i am looking for some help with mplayer, any expert here?
[03:28] <badagentx> I do have mp3 codecs
[03:29] <badagentx> Whats the problem with mplayer koth?
[03:29] <tux0010> Hi everyone
[03:30] <badagentx> hi
[03:30] <koth> badagentx: Hi, thanks I have a widesceen, when i play 4:3 content in fullscreen, it lost it 4:3 aspect ratio. is that normal?
[03:30] <tux0010> i have followed the ATI driver install guide to the letter, even tried the  "envy" script
[03:30] <tux0010> but i just can't get the ATI drivers to work
[03:30] <tux0010> fglrxinfo says the OpenGL vendor is Mesa
[03:30] <tux0010> I have a radeon x1950 pro card
[03:30] <tux0010> please can anyone help?
[03:31] <badagentx> I think it automaticly formats the media for wide screen.
[03:31] <tux0010> anyone there?
[03:31] <ackley> tux0010
[03:31] <koth> badagentx: ic. Is there anyway to watch the 4:3 content with blackbar on both side?
[03:31] <ackley> are you getting bad speed
[03:31] <ackley> ?
[03:32] <linux_kid> Is there an easy way to get an already installed Xp partition converted to vmplayer, and run in ubuntu????
[03:32] <tux0010> ackley, yea
[03:32] <tux0010> 3d doesn't work
[03:32] <tux0010> and the fglrxinfo says the opengl vendor is mesa
[03:32] <nf4> hello
[03:32] <nf4> wow five people chatting
[03:33] <nf4> oh never mind i am in worng room
[03:33] <rbil> linux_kid: apparently vmware offers a free converter that will convert an existing real windoze system to a vm. I've never used it.
[03:33] <ackley> have you tried reinstalling the fglrx package
[03:33] <linux_kid> rbil: i know, but im not informed enough to put it to good use
[03:34] <tux0010> i don't think that will work
[03:34] <tux0010> because my card is too new
[03:34] <shrndegruv> does anyone use dark gtkthemes with Eclipse, and if so how do you get the code to display readably?
[03:34] <ackley> I think fglrx handles the x cards now
[03:34] <ackley> lemme check
[03:34] <badagentx> koth: try mplayer with the -zoom option
[03:35] <koth> ok, i am going to do that now.
[03:35] <rbil> linux_kid, try /join #vmware
[03:35] <tux0010> anyone have any ideas?
[03:35] <linux_kid> rbil: thanks
[03:36] <ackley> tux0010:https://a248.e.akamai.net/f/674/9206/0/www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/linux_8.34.8.html
[03:36] <ackley> it definately supports your card
[03:36] <badagentx> rbil: I just confirmed that I do have mpeglib installed
[03:37] <tux0010> ackley, yea the new one does
[03:37] <tux0010> ackley, i tried creating a deb and stuff
[03:37] <Derekx> hi
[03:37] <tux0010> it just refuses to work
[03:37] <ackley> i mean you could do it the old fashioned way
[03:38] <ackley> binary without deb
[03:38] <tux0010> tried that too
[03:38] <koth> badagentx: how can i use the command line, and enable the gui?
[03:38] <tux0010> you mean install via the installer right?
[03:38] <ackley> is the new one in the breezy repo?
[03:38] <Nestor> holas
[03:38] <Nestor> hi
[03:38] <ackley> tux0010:right
[03:38] <tux0010> yup did that
[03:38] <Derekx> im super new to this os ><
[03:38] <tux0010> i think i should try with some other distro and see if it works
[03:38] <koth> badagentx: i don't have the control bar when if i use a command line to open a media file.
[03:38] <mjg> Hi.  my printer will not install.  It's shared from an XP machine.  I can run the new printer wizard, and everything looks ok, but afterwards: no printer.  Any ideas anyone?
[03:39] <jackson3246> Derekx: hi
[03:39] <ackley> well, if you do it from the binary there are a few things to keep in mind
[03:39] <ackley> namely your xorg.conf
[03:39] <badagentx> Do you have gmplayer koth?
[03:39] <jackson3246> hey. I just installed the RadRails and RDT plugins for eclipse. I thought it was all working well, but for some reason the interpreter will only ever output the first run of a ruby class. is there any reason why this could be happening?
[03:39] <Derekx> does ubuntu update device drivers automaticly such as ati video drivers
[03:39] <koth> badagentx: i am not sure, let me check
[03:40] <jackson3246> Derekx: yep
[03:40] <MrDetermination> question: Smb4k sees my windows file server and the credentials are correct but I get an "account was disabled" msg when trying to connect
[03:40] <Derekx> thanks ive been having a hard time with that
[03:40] <koth> badagentx: yes i do.
[03:40] <jackson3246> Derekx: but if you absolutely want the newest version you may want to check ati's website and learn how to install them via the ubuntu wiki or docs.gwos.org
[03:40] <badagentx> Try using gmplayer
[03:40] <ackley> tux0010: what xorg are you using?
[03:41] <jackson3246> Derekx: the ubuntu version usually takes a week or two to catch up with ATI's updates
[03:41] <Derekx> ive tried wikis and guides i end up having to reinstall ubuntu
[03:41] <tux0010> ackley, the stock one
[03:41] <almostkorean> howcome when i try to play songs in amarok, it just goes thru my whole playlist without actually playing anything?
[03:41] <tux0010> i.e. the one that comes with edgy
[03:41] <badagentx> Without the zoom option open the video file and right click the video and scroll over the Aspect ratio menu and click the aspect ratio that matches your monitor
[03:41] <Derekx> my laptop just has alot of problems running linux
[03:41] <jackson3246> Derekx: well that's no good. what's your problem, exactly
[03:41] <ackley> tux0010:for what release? dapper? edgy? feisty?
[03:42] <tux0010> edgy
[03:42] <tux0010> 6.10
[03:42] <ackley> so xorg 7.1 then
[03:42] <Derekx> wireless networking, accessing my windows network, and other little problems I cant seem to find answers to
[03:43] <tux0010> yup
[03:43] <ackley> did you have a gui config when you ran from the installer?
[03:43] <Derekx> it seems most people with my wireless card have alot of problems with it
[03:43] <MrDetermination> anyone: I only have sound in the right channel.  is there a sound control panel in ubuntu/xubunu?
[03:43] <ackley> and did it change your xorg.conf?
[03:43] <poacheR> Gentoo 2006.1 works on it, but I'd rather put ubuntu if I could
[03:43] <transgress_> what card Derekx
[03:43] <jackson3246> Derekx: for wireless networking it may be a problem with your specific card, for windows networking you're going to want to research (or just install) samba
[03:43] <ackley> and did you restart X
[03:43] <tux0010> you mean the GUI installer?
[03:43] <tux0010> yes, i rebooted too
[03:43] <almostkorean> can someone help me with setting up my airport extreme?
[03:44] <Derekx> will look up samba, I have one of the broadcom cards
[03:44] <ackley> what does the xorg.conf say about the driver
[03:44] <tux0010> almostkorean, don't think it works natively
[03:44] <ackley> and what's the x.log say?
[03:44] <transgress_> Derekx: i have a broadcom card working fine.  which do you have?
[03:44] <tux0010> almostkorean, might need to look into ndiswrapper because of the broadcom chip
[03:44] <almostkorean> yeah, i followed some guide on extracting the drivers and stuff but
[03:44] <almostkorean> i guess it didnt work
[03:44] <koth> badagentx: i cannot see the result in vnc =D
[03:44] <poacheR> I was hoping the problems would have resolved with feisty, but same thing happens unfortunately
[03:44] <jackson3246> transgress_: all right I'll let you handle him. don't forget to mention ndiswrapper if all else fails
[03:44] <tux0010> almostkorean, do you have a macbook/pro with core2?
[03:44] <almostkorean> its powerbook g4
[03:44] <koth> badagentx: have to go home and check
[03:45] <badagentx> ok
[03:45] <transgress_> Derekx: which broadcom card do you have?
[03:45] <tux0010> almostkorean, oh
[03:45] <almostkorean> hmm i didnt try the ndiswrapper method though
[03:45] <tux0010> almostkorean, titanium or alum?
[03:45] <almostkorean> lemme try that
[03:45] <Derekx> i dont remember how to look in up on here
[03:45] <almostkorean> um titaniium
[03:45] <transgress_> Derekx: lspci
[03:45] <tux0010> almostkorean, it shoudl work out of the box then
[03:45] <tux0010> almostkorean, cuz i had one and it ran out of the box
[03:45] <almostkorean> hmm really?
[03:46] <Derekx> lspci
[03:46] <almostkorean> yeah thats what i thought too actually
[03:46] <almostkorean> but it doesnt
[03:46] <asaup> i have a internet connection problem
[03:46] <Derekx> Broadcom Corporation BCM4318
[03:46] <almostkorean> it wont activate in the network thing
[03:46] <asaup> someone told me to modify the resolve.conf
[03:46] <almostkorean> ah mine is 4306 i think
[03:46] <tux0010> ackley, any ideas?
[03:46] <asaup> but now i do not remember the ip
[03:46] <almostkorean> yeah its 4306
[03:46] <asaup> anyone can help me
[03:47] <Derekx> none of the guides ive found work
[03:47] <transgress_> Derekx: okay yeah you are going to want to use ndiswrapper.  let me go find you a tut on using that card.
[03:47] <ackley> tux0010:can you put your xorg.conf and x.log on pastebin?
[03:47] <cafuego_> Derekx: If you use bcm43xx and force it to run at 11Mbit, you should be right.
[03:47] <cafuego_> Derekx: But firmware is needed.
[03:47] <Derekx> i see
[03:47] <asaup> anyone can help me
[03:48] <harry> I have an SD card reader, and it worked fine, but now it doesn't. The only thing that I can think of is that I uninstalled F-Spot recently... can you help me?
[03:48] <ackley> oh and btw the macbook c2duos have an unsupported atheros, not a broadcom
[03:48] <cafuego_> disclaimer: I've not used a 4318 myself, but others tell me it works.
[03:48] <Derekx> this isnt going to mess with my xp installation is it?
[03:48] <cafuego_> Derekx: nope
[03:48] <Derekx> ok
[03:48] <cafuego_> ackley: "unsupported atheros" ?
[03:48] <timfrost> asaup: what is the exact problem?  Can you pastebin /etc/resolv.conf?
[03:49] <nf4> harry when you take the card out do you right click it and  select eject?
[03:49] <fab5freddy> Hi, I need help installing a Logitech Quickcam Communicate STX
[03:49] <almostkorean> is ESSID different from SSID?
[03:49] <poacheR> anyone here have any experience with ubuntu on alienware?
[03:49] <cafuego_> almostkorean: nope
[03:49] <fab5freddy> I am using Ubuntu Dapper Drake 32bit
[03:49] <poacheR> damn :(
[03:49] <Derekx> GSAMBAD ok to connect to my windows network?
[03:49] <nf4> sometimes that couses error and the card needs to be reformatted
[03:49] <harry> yes...
[03:49] <harry> and it works fine in my camera
[03:50] <almostkorean> how can i raise the sensitivity of my trackpad? its retarded slow
[03:50] <mzuverink> Hello, I noticed while logging into freenode that it queries for an ident replay, should I be running an ident server/deamon?
[03:50] <ackley> the c2duo macbook and pro use an atheros chipset (it's a draft N chipset with (a?)bg compat) and it's not suported by the madwifi driver, atheros does a binary blob and hasn't included it and the openhal hasn't rengineered it
[03:50] <cafuego_> ackley: crap
[03:50] <cafuego_> ackley: I wanted one of those
[03:51] <Madpilot> I'm kind of surprised that https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EdgyUpgrades gives "gksu "update-manager -c"" as the update command - shouldn't it be using gksudo?
[03:51] <rbil> Madpilot: gksu works
[03:51] <mzuverink> cafuego_, is the gtkpod you put on your repo handle aac?  Or do I have the wrong cafuego?
[03:51] <ackley> cafuego: people report that ndiswrapper works
[03:52] <cafuego_> ackley: Yeah, but I don't want to use ndiswarppr (web 2.0) if I can possibly get away with it
[03:52] <MrSmurfin> Hi, I could use some assistance - I have a radeon x1300 mobility graphics card in a dell e1505 laptop. I tried updating the drivers and screwed everything up. Now it freezes when I log into gnome unless I hold escape when starting and choose an older kernel...
[03:52] <ackley> cafuego: i have a c2duo macbook (and won't touch ndiswrapper) so I'm waiting on the same thing
[03:52] <cafuego_> mzuverink: Dunno, I don't have any AAC files ;-)  It handles h264 fine though
[03:52] <MrSmurfin> I'm wondering if there's a way to get rid of all the graphics drivers on the system so I can install them from scratch?
[03:52] <Derekx> ill try the guides again with this clean install but im not sure much will change
[03:52] <ackley> tux001:did you put the stuff on pastebin?
[03:52] <ackley> tux0010
[03:53] <cafuego_> i suppose that means i cna wait until os 10.5 is out, buy it then.
[03:53] <badagentx> How come you guys didn't tell me that ubuntu dosn't come with mp3 support
[03:53] <Derekx> maybe i should try the 32 bit version
[03:53] <harry> try automatix
[03:53] <cafuego_> mzuverink: ... h264 video wtih aac sound, that is.
[03:53] <mzuverink> cafuego_,  most of my music is m4a rgar is why I asked
[03:53] <poacheR> badagentx: what do you mean no mp3 support?
[03:53] <cafuego_> mzuverink: you will need to install libfaad though
[03:53] <Madpilot> harry, please don't recommend automatix, except to people who really want to break their Ubuntu for some strange reason.
[03:54] <rbil> Madpilot: gksudo is actually a softlink to gksu .... ls -l /usr/bin/gksudo
[03:54] <mzuverink> cafuego_ thanks
[03:54] <bimberi> Madpilot: file `which gksudo`  ;)
[03:54] <nelso_ko> can someone help with serial port connections?
[03:54] <badagentx> Sort of I compiled mplayer so that has mp3 support and xmms has it built in but amarok can't play mp3's
[03:54] <Madpilot> rbil, bimberi - amazing what you learn, isn't it?
[03:54] <cafuego_> mzuverink: Note: it still messes up tv show/movie ordering.
[03:54] <rbil> Madpilot: sure is :-) your question got me looking and I learned
[03:54] <cafuego_> badagentx: You just add the codecs, you don't need to compile *anything*
[03:55] <Paddy_EIRE> could someone tell me why the "System>Preferences>Sessions =startup programs" isnt remembering any entry I put in it
[03:55] <badagentx> I did I have mpeglib on my system
[03:55] <tokin> badagentx: try xmms music player
[03:55] <MrDetermination> I only have sound in my right channel.  Is there a control panel of some sort?
[03:55] <tokin> it has mp3 support
[03:55] <Madpilot> ubotu, mp3 | badagentx
[03:55] <ubotu> badagentx: 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
[03:55] <mzuverink> cafuego-, I only use it for song in m4a format, so movies is not a problem
[03:55] <badagentx> I know that
[03:55] <cafuego_> badagentx: The wiki has concise instructions on getting the codecs installed.
[03:55] <meson27> Doesn't gstreamer enable mp3s?
[03:55] <cafuego_> mzuverink: Ok, should probably be fine then. Try anyway :-)
[03:56] <almostkorean> yeah i did gstreamer but my amarok still doesnt work
[03:56] <Doomedelite> VLC Player can pretty much play whatever you can throw at it...
[03:56] <almostkorean> rythmbox works but keeps crashing
[03:56] <cafuego_> amarok needs the kde mp3 treatment
[03:56] <almostkorean> ah i see
[03:56] <poacheR> I think gstreamer is gnome specific, amarok is kde
[03:56] <almostkorean> what packages do i need for that?
[03:56] <Derekx> one last thing anyone had luck using beryl on the Ati 200m chipset?
[03:57] <mzuverink> Anyone have a idea of an application to replace Nero Vision?  It takes avi  files and converts them to dvd and then burns them with nero?
[03:57] <ackley> amarok used to use gstreamer
[03:57] <AngryElf> hey all -- i'm trying to get mp3s working in amarok and i've installed libxine-extracodecs and gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly w/o luck -- any ideas?
[03:57] <poacheR> www.justfuckinggoogleit.com :p
[03:57] <badagentx> Thats what i'm trying to do AngryElf
[03:58] <ackley> mzuverink: i haven't tried it but either tovid or devede
[03:58] <Doomedelite> try installing the easyubuntu codecs?
[03:58] <mzuverink> ackley, thanks
[03:58] <meson27> do you have gstreamer-misc installed?
[03:58] <ackley> angryelf: so which backend does amarok use?
[03:59] <AngryElf> ackley, xine
[03:59] <whta> would it be possible for me to use a USB adapter for a game controller with an emulator?
[04:00] <mzuverink> now for the 50 million rubbles rouund, how do I get a moden that is labled a'97 to work?  Its in a laptop
[04:00] <Taime1> i installed k3b, but it wont burn a cd because it says cdrcord doesnt have permission... i tried to run the k3bsetup to solve the problem, but k3bsetup will not run... is there something i can do to allow me to burn a cd?
[04:00] <brettV> I am looking for support for Simply Mepis. Does anyone know a good channel for that?
[04:00] <ackley> angryelf: hmmmm, have you added everything from both universe and multiverse xine related? also are there any special amarok pkgs in either
[04:00] <AngryElf> yes, and no
[04:00] <brettV> or is this a good server?
[04:01] <ackley> whta: which emulator I've done it before
[04:01] <cafuego_> brettV: maybe try #mepis
[04:01] <whta> ackley: project 64 or epsxe or zsnes or something
[04:01] <brettV> thanks cafuego
[04:01] <poacheR> http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/Packaging_Amarok   <--------------- official section about mp3 in amarok
[04:01] <whta> ackley: my only concern is the drivers for the particular device
[04:01] <AngryElf> ackley, first time i've tried it with xubuntu --usually works in ubuntu
[04:01] <ackley> mzuverink: there are different pkgs depending on what your chipset is. the linmodem site has a detector
[04:02] <mzuverink> ackley, the scan mmodem program?
[04:02] <ackley> whta:so epsxe you need the joypad plugin, not sure about project64, i know that mess definately works
[04:03] <almostkorean> anyone know how i can change the sensitivity on my powerbook touchpad/
[04:03] <Doomedelite> upgrade to broadband :)
[04:03] <ackley> mzuverink: think so, not sure, just know they have one, don't know what it's called
[04:03] <Hasrat_USA> my microphone isn't working in this ubuntu 6.10. i have both gnome and KDE and the mic doesn't work in either environment. in win XP it works fine.
[04:03] <poacheR> has anyone here installed ubuntu on an alienware laptop?
[04:03] <waffles> woot
[04:03] <waffles> hello world
[04:04] <Doomedelite> hello world
[04:04] <badagentx> Hi waffles
[04:04] <world> hello
[04:04] <ghetek> how do i make all exe files automatically run in wine when i double click them?
[04:04] <ackley> whta: sorry missed that it was an xubuntu driver issue
[04:04] <Hasrat_USA> >>> print %s + %s (hello, world)
[04:04] <waffles> greetings world, what do I do now that I am free from win xp
[04:04] <Doomedelite> PRINT "Hello, World."
[04:05] <ackley> whta: don't know for sure, I've done it on gentoo, with my joysticks it was detected as a usb hid device
[04:05] <rbil> waffles: celebrate!
[04:05] <poacheR> sorry to be attention seeking ... but I'm not actually sure if I'm posting or not. Can someone mention my name?
[04:05] <waffles> !!
[04:05] <waffles> *dances*
[04:05] <Hasrat_USA> poacheR:
[04:05] <Doomedelite> poacheR!!!! :D
[04:05] <poacheR> heh, thx :$
[04:05] <Doomedelite> We can't hear you
[04:05] <poacheR> rofl
[04:06] <Doomedelite> What was that? Sorry, wasn't listening.
[04:06] <Doomedelite> =)
[04:06] <poacheR> so I guess that just means no-one knows about the ubuntu-alienware issue then :(
[04:06] <Doomedelite> poacheR: Alienware's are usually meant for gaming, aka Windows, so I would doubt anyone would have done that
[04:07] <waffles> so, is there anything I should do like update drivers or anything?
[04:07] <Doomedelite> poacheR: But you shouldn't have a problem in doing so
[04:07] <shrndegruv> whats the difference between suspend and hibernate? Should suspend stop battery usage?
[04:07] <DEinspanjer> I'm trying to install edgy on my machine that has an nvidia 8800 graphics card.  None of the options on the LiveCD will successfully start the Xorg server, and the instructions I've found for switching tot he latest nvidia driver don't work without ubuntu having been already installed.  So, it looks like what I'm supposed to do is install using the alternate CD.
[04:07] <poacheR> there's known issues on running ubuntu on Alienware ... but I don't know if there's a solution I'm ignoring. Gentoo works fine.
[04:07] <Doomedelite> shrndegruv: Google is your friend
[04:07] <DEinspanjer> My question is, how can I turn this alternate install into a standard desktop install after I get the nvidia driver installed?
[04:08] <rbil> shmdegruv: hibernate actually shutsdown the pc, but saves memory state in a file. when restarting it simply needs to load the memory state
[04:08] <almostkorean> wow finally got amarok working....
[04:08] <shrndegruv> should suspend drain any battery>
[04:08] <shrndegruv> ?
[04:09] <shrndegruv> I can suspend just fine, but I think my battery is still in use
[04:09] <ryanakca> How would I use characters from the phonetic alphabet in my LaTeX document? to be specific: md s
[04:09] <rbil> shrndegruv: suspend will drain battery over time as it's in a deep sleep, but still running
[04:09] <badagentx> How you'd do it almostkorean?
[04:10] <SpudDogg> Is there a really nice C++ programming environment similar to visual studio for ubuntu?
[04:10] <timfrost> DEinspanjer: both the desktop and alternate CD installs the same packages - you just have a different interface (and a different set of options available during the install)
[04:10] <DEinspanjer> timfrost: But the alternate is the only way to install without X?
[04:10] <waffles> any reconmendations for mp3 players?
[04:10] <poacheR> you can choose text mode on the usual cd
[04:11] <poacheR> read the help files (pressing F1 or sth)
[04:11] <badagentx> I would say amarok but it don't support mp3's in ubuntu other that that xmms or mplayer
[04:11] <timfrost> DEinspanjer: the desktop CD uses an X-based installer, so yes you need to use the alternate CD to get a text-based install
[04:11] <poacheR> xmms
[04:11] <poacheR> or beep ... although it's getting outdated now
[04:11] <waffles> badagent so xmms or mplayer?
[04:11] <badagentx> Yep
[04:11] <poacheR> beep is just xmms with gnome support, basically
[04:11] <rbil> waffles: amarok is a great music player
[04:12] <badagentx> How do i enable the multiverse repo
[04:12] <waffles> um quick question, ubuntu runs on the gnome kernel?
[04:12] <aznApx> hi - i'm having install issues with ubuntu 6.06 - can anyone give me some pointers?
[04:12] <DEinspanjer> So back to my original question.. once I get *something* installed, are there any guides or documents on turning it back into a desktop system with the right nvidia driver?
[04:12] <Erickvogeler> alguien habla espanol?
[04:12] <bimberi> SpudDogg: anjuta, eclipse, kdevelop are 3
[04:12] <poacheR> from one of the tabs in synaptic#
[04:13] <badagentx> I'm not using synaptic I'm using adept
[04:13] <poacheR> ah ... sorry, haven't used that
[04:13] <SpudDogg> bimberi, I am trying out eclipse now.  I do not like the other two all that much, but I have never heard of eclipse before
[04:13] <waffles> is there a quick command to swap between workspaces?
[04:14] <rbil> waffles: ubuntu uses gnome or any other window manager you want to install
[04:14] <meleahbee> waffle: alt+ctrl left or right arrow
[04:14] <poacheR> gnome isn't a kernel, it's a desktop environment
[04:14] <aznApx> is there a guide on issues w/ configuring xserver.xorg?
[04:14] <waffles> WICKED SMART
[04:14] <rich__> ;) nice tip
[04:14] <whta> anyone know why i might be getting choppy sound in zsnes? the people at the zsnes channel suggested complaining to the developers :(
[04:15] <waffles> so whats the kernel I'm running in ubuntu then?
[04:15] <poacheR> so yes, you can use any of the available desktop environments on ubuntu linux
[04:15] <waffles> oh ok
[04:15] <waffles> <--- newbie
[04:15] <bimberi> waffles: Linux.  Use 'uname -r' to find out what version
[04:15] <poacheR> the kernel, the linux kernel, is the central process of the operating system which simply put ensures all commands end up in the right place and do what you want them to do (ish)
[04:16] <waffles> and the gui makes interacting with the kernel pretty :)
[04:16] <poacheR> gnome is the desktop environment ... i.e. what you see
[04:16] <reds`> can anyone tell me how to make xmms the default mp3 player
[04:16] <bimberi> waffles: depends which gui ;)
[04:16] <whta> anyone know why i might be getting choppy sound in zsnes? the people at the zsnes channel suggested complaining to the developers :(
[04:16] <reds`> with gnome
[04:17] <poacheR> yeap. Gnome is a gui. Very simply put. With the difference that gnome programs can interact with other gnome programs if necessary because the use the same bases
[04:17] <waffles> so far so good bimeri, but then again I've been up for oh I'd say 20 minutes
[04:17] <rich__> whenever i close azureus it disapears
[04:17] <buchan> Is there a way to set the resolution xorg will be when booting off an install cd(PPC)?
[04:17] <rich__> to the system tray i dont have
[04:17] <reds`> any ideas?
[04:17] <poacheR> reds`: right click on an mp3 file and choose "open with" and choose xmms as the default program
[04:17] <pseudoroot> reds`:   right-click on an mp3 file, select "properties",  go to open with tab and select xmms
[04:18] <poacheR> in gnome at least
[04:18] <waffles> well time to go hook up my ide drives and see if ubuntu is going to like these ntfs disks I have
[04:18] <reds`> pseudoroot: thanks
[04:18] <rich__> how do you create a system tray?
[04:18] <waffles> currently running on a sata drive, think there will be confilcts?
[04:18] <poacheR> it will read data from them, but you may have probles writing data on them
[04:18] <reds`> damn thing is still opening rythmbox

[04:19] <A1Mega> Anyone know if there is a Stream Player for Ubuntu that not only allows you to listen but to also record whatever is playing at the same time? I used to use Winamp and Mp3myMp3 when using the Windoooze OS to do this.
[04:19] <Madpilot> waffles, shouldn't be; my only HDD now is SATA, but I had a mixed set of ATA/IDE & SATA when I started w/ Ubuntu
[04:19] <reds`> n/m pseudoroot you can change it in properties
[04:19] <harry> My SD card reader stopped working. It works on the Windows, and on my camera. I always eject the device.
[04:19] <reds`> thanks :D
[04:19] <waffles> yeah I'm gonna give it a go
[04:19] <poacheR> waffles: are you able to backup things first?
[04:20] <rich__> harry i had the same problem
[04:20] <pseudoroot> properties is what i said :)
[04:20] <eL_ZaYa> s
[04:20] <waffles> one thing for sure, hell on win xp as long as I can still access my mp3 collection I'm not missing anything!
[04:20] <Chad_> Anyone know what theme is used here to make the interface look like Windows (at least taskbar /start button)? http://www.whatwouldjesusdownload.com/christianubuntu/2007/02/ubuntu-ce-v2x-edgy-screenshots.html
[04:20] <rich__> had to take the battery out of my cammera before it would turn on
[04:20] <SkippyX> Microsoft optical trackballs - any suggestions on getting it to work

[04:21] <whta> is there any sort of task manager here? i have 3 separate crashed instances of zsnes that won't close.
[04:21] <poacheR> waffles: I think if you defragment your hard drive properly and then partition you should be ok. You can even do that under windows if you're worried, just make the other (data) partion you want an .... erm ... oh god I'm going blank, what's the old windows filesystem again?
[04:22] <poacheR> not even with force kill?
[04:22] <rbil> poacheR: he left :-)
[04:22] <poacheR> heheh, I noticed
[04:22] <poacheR> but I was still typing :p
[04:22] <rbil> it's FAT32, btw
[04:22] <poacheR> whta: can't you force kill the applications?
[04:22] <poacheR> that's the one :p
[04:23] <poacheR> I'd forget my own name if it wasn't printed on the screen :p
[04:23] <whta> poacher: is there a special way to do that? i'm trying every way that i know of to force it to close
[04:23] <Wperpus21> haiiiiiiiiiiiiii
[04:23] <poacheR> are you using gnome?
[04:23] <whta> yes
[04:23] <Barry> Hi. I'm using edgy, and when I use sudo apt-get upgrade, I'm told there are two packages "left back" -- linux-headers-generic and linux-image-generic. How do I get these installed?
[04:23] <rbil> whta: what do u want to kill?
[04:23] <whta> rbil: zsnes. it crashed.. 3 separate times.
[04:24] <poacheR> on the gnome panel you can add applications, (right click on the panel) one of them is called force kill
[04:24] <pseudoroot> killall zsnes
[04:24] <poacheR> and that's the equivalent of a taskbar-end task on windows
[04:24] <bruenig> Barry, sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic linux-image-generic
[04:24] <brettV> I am running mepis. What repositories should I have?
[04:24] <poacheR> .... or you can do that, yes :p If you prefer the console
[04:24] <bruenig> !offtopic | brettV
[04:24] <ubotu> brettV: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[04:25] <threeonefour_> who knows about the windows install of ubuntu
[04:25] <brettV> bruenig, which channel should i go to then?
[04:25] <bruenig> brettV, #mepis
[04:25] <brettV> bruenig, they sent me here
[04:25] <whta> poacher: are you saying i should add a program? or just right clicking the program name and clicking close? nowhere do i see "force kill" but the conventional right click > close isn't working
[04:26] <Chad_> Anyone know what theme is used here to make the interface look like Windows (at least taskbar /start button)? http://www.whatwouldjesusdownload.com/christianubuntu/2007/02/ubuntu-ce-v2x-edgy-screenshots.html
[04:26] <bruenig> brettV, well they shouldn't do that
[04:26] <cheatersrealm> when I use htpasswd2, what format should I use with apache?
[04:26] <goat> test
[04:26] <brettV> how about this bruenig what repositories should i have if i were using ubuntu
[04:26] <Barry> goat: Your test worked.
[04:26] <tonyyarusso> cheatersrealm: what is htpasswd2?
[04:26] <bruenig> brettV, for what
[04:26] <cheatersrealm> tonyyarusso: it creates .htpasswd files for apache
[04:26] <cafuego_> brettV: mepis isn't ubuntu, packages differ, file locations differ. we can't help with mepis stuff.
[04:26] <brettV> cafuego, isn't mepis based on ubuntu?
[04:27] <Chado> Anyone know what theme is used here to make the interface look like Windows (at least taskbar /start button)? http://www.whatwouldjesusdownload.com/christianubuntu/2007/02/ubuntu-ce-v2x-edgy-screenshots.html
[04:27] <cafuego_> brettV: No, on debian, just like ubuntu.
[04:27] <goat> tks Barry
[04:27] <bruenig> brettV, the repositories are different, mepis has its repositories, ubuntu has its repositories, they are not the same
[04:27] <brettV> ok thanks
[04:27] <cafuego_> brettV: I suggest you DON'T  ask in #debian,a s you'll probably be burnt at the stake
[04:27] <badagentx> Chade: try xpde
[04:27] <maxagaz> what mailing list system should I use for my website ?
[04:27] <poacheR> whta: no, I was saying that, on the gnome panel, where the shut down and volume control buttons are etc, if you right click, you get a menu to add buttons to the panel. One of those buttons is one called force kill, which forces an application (that has crashed for instance) to close, or "kill". Then all you have to do is click that button on the taskbar, and then click on the window of the crashed program
[04:27] <badagentx> opps
[04:27] <poacheR> whta: does that make sense?
[04:28] <tonyyarusso> cheatersrealm: Ah.  So with format, does it not just spit them out in usable form?
[04:28] <badagentx> Chado: try xpde
[04:28] <Chado> xpde is the name of the theme? Where can I get it (download)?
[04:28] <tonyyarusso> cafuego_: I think you might be wrong - I think Mepis was converting to an Ubuntu derivative.
[04:28] <poacheR> otherwise you can do what pseudoroot suggested and type "killall zsnes" in the console
[04:28] <cafuego_> tonyyarusso: that'll be a fairly recent initiative then?
[04:28] <Rio> general linux question: how do i edit information that is in the router from a terminal.  i'll be logging in remotely....
[04:29] <tonyyarusso> cafuego_: yeah
[04:29] <badagentx> Chado: www.xpde.com
[04:29] <whta> ahh poacher i see what you're saying now, sorry
[04:29] <cafuego_> still, it's not '==' ;-)
[04:29] <tonyyarusso> cafuego_: might want to double-check, but I think that's right
[04:29] <poacheR> is it working? (or rather, not working? :p)
[04:29] <cheatersrealm> tonyyarusso: I need to know what hashing function to use
[04:29] <javiolo> is it possible to set my bittorrent client to mail me when a download finishs ?
[04:30] <pseudoroot> "In 2006, MEPIS transitioned from using Debian packages to using Ubuntu packages. SimplyMEPIS 6.0, released in July 2006, is the first version of MEPIS to incorporate the Ubuntu packages and repositories." ... http://www.mepis.org/history
[04:30] <bruenig> javiolo, if you know how to program
[04:30] <badagentx> cheatersrealm: which hashing functions can you choose from?
[04:31] <cheatersrealm> badagentx: md5, crypt(), sha, plaintext
[04:31] <badagentx> I would say go with sha
[04:31] <tonyyarusso> cheatersrealm: You can use htpasswd stuff either plain or encrypted - I'd recommend glancing at apache docs for more info on what that entails.
[04:32] <javiolo> bruenig I know how to send the mail (via mutt) but not how to check if the download its finished...
[04:33] <bruenig> javiolo, I can't conceive of anyway to script this, I could only think if you knew how to code, that you could write a plugin for azureus or deluge or some other open source client, but that might be my limited ability to conceptualize

[04:40] <AmaroqWolf> Hmm, a friend of mine is trying to enable direct draw on his SiS 315 series. It's an SiS 650 to be precise. Any advise? He's installed siscfg so far.
[04:40] <twob> Is there a way to make all X fonts (file, edit, xterm, etc) larger?  Either in xorg, a .xsession variable or something else?  I'm looking for something outside of a window manager realm.
[04:40] <rbil> sgtmattbaker: I have dual monitor working and there are a number of ways to approach this depending on the video driver you're using and how you want to use dual monitors. so you have to be more specific
[04:40] <tonyyarusso> twob: accessibility options maybe?
[04:41] <pinchmesh> twob, try changing the screen res
[04:41] <sgtmattbaker> I want it so I have my default LCD to have all the windows and things show up there and then have it so I can move applications to the other one when I want to
[04:41] <twob> pinchmesh: it's on an hdtv for a media box, so I need to keep the resolution up higher.
[04:41] <pinchmesh> it's under system -> preferences
[04:42] <sgtmattbaker> right now it acts just like a big desktop (using nvidia binary driver and twinview)
[04:42] <pinchmesh> i unno about hdtv
[04:42] <pinchmesh> dunno
[04:42] <bruenig> don't know
[04:42] <pinchmesh> but, you can try
[04:42] <twob> pinchmesh: which tool system->preferences?  Or is that a xorg compile option?
[04:42] <rbil> sgtmattbaker: well to do what u want, it will have to be one big desktop. a cloned desktop simply repeats what's on one monitor onto the other
[04:43] <pinchmesh> look up at the very top
[04:43] <twob> pinchmesh: Not using a window manager...
[04:43] <twob> twm only
[04:43] <threeonefour_> bruenig,you know of the windows install of ubuntu right
[04:43] <pinchmesh> ah, then maybe in rc
[04:43] <bruenig> threeonefour_, I know of it yeah
[04:43] <twob> system->preferences only adjusts gnome/kde font sizes, not X font sizes...
[04:43] <pinchmesh> it's under /etc, i think
[04:44] <twob> pinchmesh: rc?
[04:44] <pinchmesh> x fonts are in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:44] <threeonefour_> bruenig, have you used it before
[04:44] <bruenig> no I don't use windows
[04:44] <sgtmattbaker> why
[04:44] <bruenig> I don't think that it is really super stable right now
[04:45] <pinchmesh> rc is the system wide resource control settings
[04:45] <pinchmesh> sec
[04:45] <smoove> do i need compiz to run beryl+xgl with an ati card?
[04:45] <sgtmattbaker> hmm
[04:45] <sgtmattbaker> yeah it just crashed on me after a BIOS update
[04:45] <twob> pinchmesh: /etc/rc? doesn't exist, I don't understand what you mean
[04:46] <dee> Having trouble getting my 3D accelerator to work, anyone that can help?
[04:46] <smoove> do i need compiz to run beryl+xgl with an ati card?
[04:46] <pinchmesh> try "locate rc |grep /etc"
[04:47] <dondo> join #freenet-de
[04:47] <pseudoroot> smoove:   if nobody here knows, ask at #ubuntu-effects
[04:47] <dee> original configuration file '/etc/updatedb.conf' will is the result
[04:48] <cafuego_> smoove: No, beryl does what compiz does, they are mutually exclusive.
[04:50] <marshall> JustinWhitaker, bruenig: im trying to pull some configuration on my cellular, the howto calls for FAR and that I use a plugin for FAR, do you know if the midnight commander or gnome-commander allow use of plugins? maybe even FAR plugins?
[04:50] <pinchmesh> ubuntu is the best linux i know of... i'm an old freebsd user, but now ubuntu, especially for desktop, and especially for amd64
[04:50] <pinchmesh> reallly good code now

[04:53] <whileimhere> Is there a way to backup all the f-spot data so that I dont have to sort them all when I redo my machine
[04:53] <dee> anyone that can help with 3D acceleration, the wiki doesnt seem to work
[04:53] <michup> hi ive ubuntu working and ive two fat32 partitions i wish to change it to linux partitions how achieve that without loosing my data?
[04:54] <bruenig> whileimhere, I would assume that there is a .fspot directory or something else in your home
[04:54] <Pelo> whileimhere,  just backup your home folder, and you won' t need to redo any of your config, just re install the apps
[04:54] <bruenig> michup, backup your stuff, reformat and then put it back on
[04:54] <badagentx> I'm looking at the man page for mp32ogg but it dosn't say if it supports wildcard characters
[04:54] <joebob777as7> michup move off and use gparted
[04:54] <Frogzoo> michup: backup & restore - only way
[04:54] <nowhere> Hello, who is willing to help me make WPA work for my wireless network? WEP works fine but it simply refuses WPA even if I follow a step by step guide....
[04:54] <michup> i mean i dont bother the data on fat32 partitions
[04:54] <bruenig> badagentx, what are you looking to do exactly?
[04:55] <pseudoroot> michup:   not possible
[04:55] <joebob777as7> gparted
[04:55] <GMachine_24> I am unable to copy/record CDs under a number of programs I have tried - get an error message re: cdrecord problems and that I should try an earlier version of Linux (earlier than 2.4) or try Solaris
[04:55] <badagentx> I need to batch convert my mp3 collection to ogg
[04:55] <TheDebugger> badagentx: Bad idea
[04:55] <bruenig> michup, unless somehow you can get all your stuff on one of the partitions, then format one, move it over, and then format the other one
[04:55] <TheDebugger> badagentx: Keep 'em as they are
[04:55] <Frogzoo> michup: I'm still not clear on what you want
[04:55] <bruenig> badagentx, right, so just do mp32ogg /directory/that/all/your/music/is/in
[04:55] <TheDebugger> badagentx: Transcoding is always bad because you lose quality
[04:55] <joebob777as7> michup get gparted
[04:56] <bruenig> badagentx, I would suggest that you do mp32ogg --quality=10 /directory
[04:56] <bruenig> joebob777as7, gparted won't do that
[04:56] <nowhere> is it required to set a channel in the interfaces file?
[04:56] <michup> but my disk is like hda1 /boot jfs hda2 swap hda5 / hda6 /var hda7 /usr hda8 /opt hda9 /home hda10 fat32 hda11 fat32
[04:56] <bruenig> wow that is easy to understand
[04:56] <michup> and i wish to change hda10 hda11 to linux partitons and make it jfs
[04:57] <pinchmesh> michup, using a usb hard drives works great for such stuff
[04:58] <pinchmesh> mobo's will even boot to them now
[04:58] <dee> anyone that can help me with turning on 3d acceleration with nvidia?
[04:58] <Frogzoo> michup: so what's the problem?
[04:58] <michup> if i use cfdisk or fdisk and change this two partitons to linux partitions is it gonna to destroy my extended part?
[04:58] <bruenig> !ati | dee
[04:58] <ubotu> dee: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:58] <Frogzoo> michup: again, you can't change the file system and keep the data on it - you have to backup the data, reformat the partition, restore the data
[04:59] <AmaroqWolf> Is it possible to have more than one locale on your system at the same time. I have a japanese game, and it doesn't work. I want to test to see if the problem is the fact that my locale is english, but I don't want to change my entire system to japanese.
[04:59] <nowhere> Who knows how to get WPA working @ Ubuntu dapper?

[04:59] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:59] <Pelo> AmaroqWolf,  have you tried making different users for the different local ?
[04:59] <michup> okay but im not bother the data on windows partitions im only afraid the data from others partitions
[05:00] <Pelo> nowhere,  check in the forum
[05:00] <bruenig> yeah rtfm
[05:00] <smoove> so i have beryl+xgl set up, all my files have been configured....but when i run the xgl session i get a white screen
[05:00] <AmaroqWolf> Pelo: I didn't try that. Is that possible?
[05:00] <nowhere> I have checked the forum, followed guide, no result...

[05:01] <MatrixMon> What can I do with Sed and Awk?
[05:01] <nowhere> It would be great if someone with experience could help me to at least try and find out what could be going wrong. WEP works fine, when I throw in WPA it starts giving trouble. I'm trying to make it work now for two days :)
[05:01] <cafuego_> MatrixMon: everything
[05:01] <Pelo> nowhere,  try google then, that's the best I can offer
[05:01] <michup> and i wish only to change this hda11 and hda10 to linux/jfs dont bother the data
[05:01] <michup> on this two part
[05:01] <Pelo> michup,  gparted
[05:02] <MatrixMon> Sounds promising
[05:02] <MatrixMon> Like what exactly?
[05:02] <michup> okay

[05:04] <mindstate> Pelo, its all set correct
[05:04] <bruenig> looks like we have a bot
[05:04] <mindstate> Pelo, i think the issue lies deeper
[05:04] <bruenig> !let's see if he is really a bot

[05:06] <quicksilve1> I could use a good recommendation for a media player for Ubuntu
[05:06] <Pelo> mindstate,  try resinalling the applet
[05:06] <pinchmesh> date can be used to set the system clock
[05:06] <pinchmesh> "man date"
[05:06] <bruenig> haha
[05:06] <Frogzoo> quicksilve1: gxine is best quality, vlc supports more formats
[05:06] <quicksilve1> Gracias
[05:06] <badagentx> Don't forget mplayer/gmplayer
[05:06] <bruenig> totem is the greatest
[05:07] <Pelo> gmplayer ?
[05:07] <pseudoroot> mplayer for gnome
[05:07] <nomasteryoda> bruenig, sure.. each his own
[05:07] <nomasteryoda> mplayer rocks!
[05:07] <nomasteryoda> =D
[05:07] <nomasteryoda> vlc for windows
[05:07] <TLP-CentDuo> mplayer,xine, and totem will play even my sony encrypted dvds
[05:07] <nomasteryoda> or linux...
[05:07] <quicksilve1> I just needed something to play the m3u files my kPlaylist server makes
[05:07] <badagentx> Pelo: Gmplayer is a gui frontend for mplayer
[05:07] <nomasteryoda> TLP-CentDuo, wow
[05:07] <bruenig> quicksilve1, totem will
[05:07] <smoove> so i have beryl+xgl set up, all my files have been configured....but when i run the xgl session i get a white screen
[05:08] <TLP-CentDuo> nomasteryoda:..lol
[05:08] <nomasteryoda> pseudoroot, i give the vlc portable to my windows weenies
[05:08] <bruenig> vlc is a nice failsafe but not for a main media player
[05:08] <TheDebugger> gmplayer is a joke...
[05:08] <bruenig> just too limited
[05:08] <Frogzoo> quicksilve1: amarok or any of the other audio players
[05:08] <bruenig> in terms of interface
[05:08] <nomasteryoda> smoove, ubuntu feisty?... broken it is ...
[05:08] <nomasteryoda> beryl ...
[05:08] <SlimG> How do I find out what "hwX:X" id my soundcard has ? (example: hw0:0), what does the first and second number stand for?
[05:08] <TLP-CentDuo> 6.06
[05:09] <rbil> smoove: I think there's some bug in beryl in this regards. can you run beryl-manager from within a gnome session? that's what I had to do.
[05:09] <nowhere> Pelo: Wow I found this util called WiFi radar and it now works :)
[05:10] <nf4> so if you run beryl from gnome dose that mean aixlg is working ?
[05:10] <Pelo> nowhere, congrats
[05:10] <rbil> nf4: I believe so
[05:10] <nomasteryoda> SlimG,  lspci -nn
[05:11] <nomasteryoda> that will give more tthan you want, but like ... 00:1d.7 USB Controller [0c03] 
[05:11] <TLP-CentDuo> how do you use sudo in interactive mode
[05:12] <TLP-CentDuo> sudo -i?
[05:12] <nomasteryoda> sudo -s should work
[05:12] <cafuego_> TLP-CentDuo: 'sudo -s' or 'sudo -i'
[05:12] <nomasteryoda> if that is what you mean
[05:12] <cafuego_> If you need any X stuff, use 'sudo -s'.
[05:12] <nomasteryoda> SlimG, also this... lspci -nn|grep audio
[05:12] <lemonsCC> whats interactive mode?
[05:12] <TLP-CentDuo> ok
[05:12] <SlimG> nomasteryoda: so your USB controller would be hw00:1d.7 ?
[05:12] <lemonsCC> like gui?

[05:15] <marx2k> beryl is a fork of compiz
[05:15] <smoove> i dont understand

[05:15] <cafuego_> Madpilot: at HH:03
[05:15] <Madpilot> cafuego, yah, just went thru scrollback myself
[05:15] <smoove> so compiz > beryl?
[05:15] <TheDebugger> Beryl evolves faster :)
[05:15] <TheDebugger> I'd say beryl > compiz
[05:15] <cafuego_> smoove: They both suck.
[05:15] <whta> sorry if off-topic, but does anyone know the best N64 emulator?
[05:16] <marx2k> Beryl is unstable
[05:16] <Pelo> ppl got mad at the way compiz was being developped , thought they could do better so they started beryl , based on compiz,  that is what a fork is
[05:16] <Frogzoo> mindstate: Jedi Knight might work for you under wine
[05:16] <smoove> i dont need cutting edge i need something that works
[05:16] <marx2k> Compiz is stable

[05:16] <smoove> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lawkc3jH3ws
[05:16] <smoove> is compiz?
[05:16] <smoove> or beryl
[05:16] <cafuego_> marx2k: Except for the bit where it somestimes forgets to display window content.
[05:16] <rirudepanci> can anyone recommend me a good book about linux in general?

[05:17] <cafuego_> marx2k: aye
[05:17] <ed1t> whats a good CD buring application?
[05:17] <lemonsCC> cafuego_: meh no need for window content

[05:18] <lemonsCC> !k3b
[05:18] <ubotu> k3b is a feature-rich and user-friendly burning application for KDE (and, as all KDE applications, works fine on GNOME). For a guide, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/K3BHowto
[05:19] <Spawn311> TheDebugger: is on top of it
[05:19] <ed1t> thx
[05:19] <TheDebugger> Some people prefer to avoid QT applications
[05:19] <llol> any of u guys have experience with RAID0?
[05:19] <Madpilot> matthew1421, in Gnome? Right-click on the surviving bar, select New Panel, set it up at the top, and add all the bits back into it.
[05:19] <marx2k> brb I think I need to fix my dcc
[05:19] <aioriadeleo> any spanish channel of ubuntu?
[05:19] <bruenig> !es
[05:19] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[05:19] <aioriadeleo> thnx
[05:19] <rirudepanci> ok
[05:20] <matthew1421> Madpilot: it just adds icons
[05:20] <Spawn311> why does printing under linux/unix have to suck ass so much
[05:20] <Madpilot> matthew1421, what does?
[05:20] <matthew1421> in o
[05:20] <bruenig> Spawn311, because you don't pick your pritners right
[05:20] <bruenig> go get an hp
[05:20] <Madpilot> Spawn311, because so many printers are awful
[05:21] <Spawn311> the printer is not the issue
[05:21] <Spawn311> I have an HP
[05:21] <Madpilot> matthew1421, sorry, I don't know what you mean by "it just adds icons"?
[05:21] <Dr_willis> linux dosent require me to install 128mb of printer 'drivers' for his all-in-one-hp-printer-scanner either.
[05:21] <matthew1421> in original install the top panel shows text for applications, system etc.
[05:22] <matthew1421> but now it only shows icons when i add applications
[05:22] <bruenig> matthew1421, you need to add the new panel, then right click on the new panel and add to it with all the stuff
[05:22] <clearze2>  llol: I use a raid 0 setup....but I run debian on that server
[05:22] <Spawn311> Madpilot: do u use cups or lpd?
[05:22] <cafuego_> you use raid0 ... on a SERVER?
[05:22] <cafuego_> does your boss know?
[05:22] <matthew1421> bruenig: i know how to do this
[05:22] <bruenig> clearly you don't
[05:22] <sgtmattbaker> can I run media sharing software using QEmu or some virtual console to stream media to my xbox 360
[05:22] <matthew1421> but it only adds icons, not the text
[05:22] <Madpilot> matthew1421, add the menu back - right-click->Add to Panel
[05:22] <rirudepanci> lousy canon drivers... i can relate
[05:23] <Madpilot> SpAwN, cups, with a basic HP Deskjet
[05:23] <rirudepanci> at least they work
[05:23] <clearze2> cafuego_:  It's personal, and it's because they where small drives
[05:23] <clearze2> cafuego_:  I have another array that is raid 5 on the same machine
[05:23] <Madpilot> matthew1421, look for the Menu Bar & Notification Area applets
[05:23] <cafuego_> clearze2: That's what LVM is for, when one disk breaks, you lose some data. With raid0, you lose ALL data.
[05:23] <marx2k> ok who was I sending these files to....
[05:24] <clearze2>  cafuego_: I know. It's only a temp solution anyway. That is why I was doing backups earlier
[05:24] <matthew1421> Madpilot: thx :) thats exactly it
[05:24] <Madpilot> matthew1421, everything on the Gnome panels is just an applet, so it can all be moved/removed/replaced if removed by accident...

[05:29] <ToddEDM> hi guys
[05:29] <gn0me> I can't seem to start my X, something about being unable to find the 'fixed' font... anyone had this before?
[05:29] <Madpilot> greig_, you can update your install in place - just hit that button
[05:29] <clearze2> greig_: you can simply update
[05:29] <ToddEDM> first time ubuntu user here , so far i like it
[05:30] <ToddEDM> actually im using Edubuntu right now
[05:30] <pinchmesh> ToddEDM, it's a great distro
[05:30] <pinchmesh> i'm new to it also
[05:30] <greig_> so i do not need to update to the 6.10 iso, i just let it update from 5.10 to 6.10, yes?
[05:30] <Madpilot> greig_, yes
[05:30] <Fuzzywuzzy> greig_: yes
[05:31] <Zilulil> anybody know if virtual box is really better then vmware?
[05:31] <konam> someone could tell me if the postableapps suit works under linux, i mean, automatically....?
[05:31] <ToddEDM> im having trouble installing it to a separate partition on my HDD
[05:31] <konam> suite*
[05:31] <Madpilot> greig_, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DapperUpgrades
[05:31] <greig_> ok, thank you!!
[05:31] <Squee> I need to resize an encrypted filesystem.  In order to do this I need to know the exact sectors to resize and I dont know how to do that (i'm on a live cd and gparted doesn't work).  How do I find out what the sectors of the last 30 gbs of my hard drive?
[05:31] <pseudoroot> !install | ToddEDM
[05:31] <ubotu> ToddEDM: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues
[05:32] <Fuzzywuzzy> Anyone familiar with how MythTV interacts with IVTV? I upgraded from Dapper to Edgy and lost my VBI.
[05:32] <smoove> whats the effects room?
[05:32] <ToddEDM> thanks
[05:32] <pseudoroot> smoove:   ubuntu-effects
[05:32] <smoove> ty
[05:33] <Squee> fuzzywuzzy:  I believe some changes were made in where the firmware is stored
[05:33] <Zilulil> anybody know if virtual box is really better then vmware?
[05:34] <Squee> Zilulil: never heard of virtual box, but from what I hear for linux qemu + kqemu is the winner right now
[05:34] <Zilulil> i can't get qemu to work
[05:34] <Zilulil> i've tried like 3 times
[05:34] <Zilulil> i'm on edgy
[05:34] <Zilulil> and it's just refusing
[05:34] <Zilulil> might just me the howto's i've been using tho
[05:35] <TheDebugger> Zilulil: get vmware :D
[05:35] <Zilulil> i have vmware right now
[05:35] <Zilulil> it just seems  a tad slow
[05:35] <Zilulil> and i would like to be able to play AA
[05:35] <Squee> I use VMWare and it is awesome, check out ubuntuguide.org they have a tutorial to get it up and running fast
[05:35] <pinchmesh> window's is a tad slow
[05:35] <TheDebugger> Zilulil: You will never be able to do that in an emulator
[05:35] <TheDebugger> Zilulil: Perhaps wine
[05:35] <Zilulil> oh *sad*
[05:35] <Zilulil> i have wine
[05:35] <Zilulil> and AA doesn't run it it
[05:36] <Zilulil> or at least doesn't for me
[05:36] <kalorin> heh
[05:36] <kalorin> I was playing UT in a vmware instance :)
[05:36] <kalorin> too funny
[05:36] <sgtmattbaker>  can I run media sharing software using QEmu or some virtual console to stream media to my xbox 360
[05:36] <david_> windows xp in vmware for me is faster running it under vmware than it is running it natively heh
[05:36] <kalorin> little choppy at times and stuff but still funny
[05:36] <sgtmattbaker>  can I run media sharing software using QEmu or some virtual console to stream media to my xbox 360
[05:36] <andre> would anybody be able to help me getting a web cam going
[05:36] <Zilulil> hrm...well i'll give vmware a bit of a try
[05:37] <Fuzzywuzzy> Squee: AFAIK, the firmware is loading correctly.  I can watch video & even use VBI with a different program
[05:37] <OracleGD_> Hello. Sounds not working, works under other operating systems though so its not a physical problem.
[05:37] <pseudoroot> !webcam
[05:37] <ubotu> Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras
[05:37] <Zilulil> then if it doesn't work...i dunno maybe i'll try out virtualbox
[05:37] <greig_> jesus, this ubuntu is fast compaired to XP
[05:37] <qhartman> OracleGD_, what can you tell us about your hardware?
[05:37] <Zilulil> everything is fast compaired to xp
[05:37] <Zilulil> except vista that is
[05:37] <OracleGD_> Standard intel sound card. Integrated.
[05:37] <andre> even suse
[05:37] <sgtmattbaker> why is Ubuntu running really slow
[05:37] <sgtmattbaker> ?
[05:37] <kalorin> did you install vmware tools?
[05:38] <kalorin> that's supposed to make it go even faster
[05:38] <Zilulil> yeah i have vmware tools on
[05:38] <Squee> FuzzyWuzzy: I use ivtv with mine... the only other thing I can think of is that some settings may have transfered  that shouldn't have, try to set up the backend again
[05:38] <qhartman> OracleGD_, hm... Clean install of edgy or dapper?
[05:38] <Squee> I need to resize an encrypted filesystem.  In order to do this I need to know the exact sectors to resize and I dont know how to do that (i'm on a live cd and gparted doesn't work).  How do I find out what the sectors of the last 30 gbs of my hard drive?
[05:38] <kalorin> how'd that go?
[05:38] <kalorin> I'm getting ready to do it, any tips?
[05:38] <Zilulil> i'm thinking of putting beryl on this comp
[05:38] <Zilulil> looks really shiny
[05:38] <OracleGD_> Clean edgy qhartman. Sound used to work.
[05:38] <crimsun> OracleGD_: pastebin ``amixer''
[05:39] <erika> hiyas :)
[05:39] <crimsun> no one should ask for assistance with sound problems _without_ posting the required info from wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems onto a pastebin

[05:40] <ToddEDM> hey, if i got  AMD Turion64 x2 , do i download the AMD64 iso?
[05:40] <Fuzzywuzzy> Squee: I tried dropping the videosource, capturecard and cardinput tables from the database & re-ran mythtv-setup, no dice
[05:40] <ToddEDM> is it comaptible?
[05:40] <Zilulil> i would like to do that
[05:40] <smoove> join #ubuntu-effects
[05:40] <qhartman> ToddEDM, you can, but you don't have to. Depending on whaqt you are doing, the "normal" one might make life easier
[05:40] <Squee> toddEDM: Go with i386 (32bit).  64bit isn't supported as well yet
[05:40] <Zilulil> but my brother loves america's army
[05:40] <ToddEDM> thx qhartman
[05:40] <Fuzzywuzzy> Toddedm: yes
[05:40] <Zilulil> and his clan plays the windows only version
[05:41] <Zilulil> stupid them and stopping linux at 2.6
[05:41] <pinchmesh> ToddEDM, yep amd64
[05:41] <Zilulil> and wine stopped working at 2.7
[05:41] <Squee> I need to resize an encrypted filesystem.  In order to do this I need to know the exact sectors to resize and I dont know how to do that (i'm on a live cd and gparted doesn't work).  How do I find out what the sectors of the last 30 gbs of my hard drive?
[05:41] <rirudepanci> yeah... games
[05:41] <ToddEDM> what kind of benefits will i se?
[05:41] <ToddEDM> with 64
[05:41] <Wimpog> GUYS, has anyone here installed Drupal on Ubuntu?
[05:41] <qhartman> OracleGD_, can you pastein the output of "lsmod | grep snd" for me?
[05:41] <rirudepanci> ME
[05:41] <OracleGD_> Sure, one second.
[05:41] <Fuzzywuzzy> Toddedm: but you may run into some compatibility issues.
[05:41] <Wimpog> I need some help please....
[05:41] <rirudepanci> Wimpog: what the problem?
[05:41] <ToddEDM> ok, since im a newb, i will stick with the regluar one
[05:41] <Zilulil> is there a way to turn off the log in and out spam?
[05:42] <Fuzzywuzzy> Speaking of which, anyone know when the PLF binaries will be back up?
[05:42] <qhartman> ToddEDM, FWIW, I'm not exactly a newbie, and I stick with it too, except at work ,where 64-bitness actually is important
[05:42] <Zilulil> seriously the log spam is driving me insaine
[05:42] <Fuzzywuzzy> I need to reinstall my win32codecs and mplayer32 packages, but the PLF changed Ubuntu maintaners and now the folder's empty.
[05:42] <Madpilot> Zilulil, most IRC clients can suppress the join/leave messages - which one are you using?
[05:42] <Wimpog> rirudepanci: ok, when creating first (that is admin) account, I enter my username, and email. Then, it should bring me to a page where it should ask for password, but it does not... once i hit create button, it says Access Denied...
[05:42] <erika> Last time I visited #Ubuntu was about a year ago... a question about Automatix.
[05:42] <Zilulil> xgnome
[05:42] <ahave> is there a way to force an app to use a certain NIC? (i have a WNIC, and a lan line)
[05:43] <Zilulil> rather
[05:43] <Madpilot> Zilulil, XChat-gnome?
[05:43] <Zilulil> xchat-gnome
[05:43] <ahave> eth1 is my wireless
[05:43] <ToddEDM> thanks for the input guys....
[05:43] <OracleGD_> Pastebinning it...
[05:43] <Zilulil> yeah Xchat-gnome
[05:43] <superlinux> hello i got a dvd whit 14 iso ditro inside i installed qemu how do i run em now to try em?
[05:43] <gn0me> Anyone know which package might reinstall all of the Xorg fonts? Can't seem to find the fixed font, so Xorg isn't starting.
[05:43] <marx2k_> hmm
[05:43] <OracleGD_> http://pastebin.com/pastebin.php?dl=889733
[05:43] <rirudepanci> Wimporg: wow i didnt have a problem like that...
[05:43] <marx2k_> !dcc
[05:43] <ubotu> There are people around who think it is funny to abuse a bug in certain routers by sending invalid DCC commands. When bitten by this bug ops in #ubuntu remove users so they are no longer targets. To fix it have a look here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixDCCExploit
[05:43] <qhartman> gn0me, did you just do a feisty upgrade?
[05:43] <Madpilot> Zilulil, I know the real xchat can do it, that might be one of the (many) options "helpfully" removed from xchat-gnome.
[05:43] <erika> force... that was why some people told me not to use Automatix
[05:44] <atlas> hello, i have totem-mozilla and all gstreamer0.10 plugin but on the web, i can't play a lot of video with it :(, neither mozilla-mplayer :/
[05:44] <Zilulil> doh :(
[05:44] <gn0me> qhartman: I had a while ago, but only the latest upgrade broke it.. if that's what you're asking
[05:44] <superlinux> any one know how to use qemu from shell?
[05:44] <rirudepanci> Wimpog: did try asking here? => #drupal-support
[05:44] <Wimpog> rirudepanci: hmm. which version have you installed?
[05:44] <atlas> how to do?
[05:44] <konam> someone user the portableapps suite under ubuntu?
[05:44] <marx2k_> Hmmm I guess I cant DCC anyone :(
[05:44] <Zilulil> so is the xchat one just sudo apt-get install xchat?
[05:44] <marx2k_> or at least not rirudepanci
[05:44] <Zilulil> or do i have to do something else to grab it
[05:44] <Wimpog>  #drupal-support
[05:44] <Wimpog> #drupal-support
[05:44] <rirudepanci> Wimpog: 5.x
[05:44] <atlas> konam, what is the website?
[05:44] <Wimpog> How do I get there?
[05:44] <superlinux> who can help me whit qemu?
[05:44] <Madpilot> Zilulil, yes, assuming you've got Universe repo enabled.
[05:44] <Zilulil> yep got that
[05:44] <Zilulil> kk brb
[05:44] <qhartman> gn0me, yeah, I had the same thing tonight. That error is a bit spurious, if you "dpkg-reconfigure xswerver-xorg" it should fix things
[05:44] <rirudepanci> Wimpog: join that channel
[05:44] <konam> atlas portableapps.com
[05:44] <marx2k_> rirudepanci, youre not ignoring DCC get's are you?
[05:44] <gn0me> k, sec
[05:45] <Wimpog> rirudepanci: how do I do that?
[05:45] <qhartman> that's "xserver-xorg
[05:45] <rirudepanci> marx2k_: not that i know no
[05:45] <marx2k_> bogus
[05:45] <konam> atlas it says it works under wine on linux but the mine doesn't work
[05:45] <Wimpog> rirudepanci: oh ok
[05:45] <superlinux> i have a dvd from a zine whit 14 recent distros i installed qemu how do i run em now to try them they are iso

[05:46] <addictedtothenet> anyone good with GRUB?
[05:47] <vidalstat> i've used qemu before
[05:47] <qhartman> addictedtothenet, what's the problem.
[05:47] <rirudepanci> marx2k_: i tried sending u something as well but it said that i had to register in freenode to send private messages... odd
[05:47] <gn0me> qhartman: Thank you muchly!
[05:47] <GigaClon> question will Ubuntu update the clocks properly with the change in Daylight savings time?
[05:47] <Dr_willis> superlinux,  asking a more specific question - does wonders...
[05:47] <vidalstat> but am no expert ;(
[05:47] <OracleGD_> Coming up crimsun...
[05:47] <qhartman> gn0me, sure thing. :D
[05:47] <addictedtothenet> i can't get my box to suto bot
[05:47] <superlinux> hello dr
[05:47] <marx2k_> Ohh so its probably the server
[05:47] <gn0me> qhartman: Did the default fonts dir move or something with this update?
[05:47] <addictedtothenet> sorry.. auto
[05:47] <qhartman> gn0me, not sure to tell you truth
[05:47] <gn0me> Or fixed got deleted by mistake or something?
[05:47] <gn0me> Haha, no worries then.
[05:48] <fnf> addictedtothenet: huh ?
[05:48] <gn0me> Hopefully I'll find out-- again, thank you very much!
[05:48] <erika> kitche... I love Elive... Ubuntu is my everyday distro but I like how fast Elive is.
[05:48] <ahave> is there a way to force an app to use a certain NIC? (i have a WNIC, and a lan line)
[05:48] <superlinux> ok i got a dvd from a zine whit 14 iso recent distro's inside i isntalled qemu how do i run em now to try em dr willis?
[05:48] <OracleGD_> http://pastebin.com/889740
[05:48] <OracleGD_> http://pastebin.com/889740
[05:48] <erika> Not to mention how pretty it is.
[05:48] <addictedtothenet> i posted in the ubuntu forums and had some helpful ideas but none that work

[05:48] <zaydana> what would be the best way to go about getting Apache 2.2 on dapper?
[05:48] <marx2k_> that solves my problem (sort of)
[05:48] <greig_> i just tried to download and install amsn, ive dloaded it but when running the downloaded file i get the following error, gedit was not able to automatically detect the character coding. Please, check that you are not trying to open a binary file and try again selecting a character coding in the 'Open File...' (or 'Open Location') dialogue. does anyone know what this means please?
[05:48] <qhartman> addictedtothenet, can you link to your forum thread so I can get some backstory?
[05:48] <rirudepanci> OHHHH
[05:48] <kalorin> qemu is pretty easy to set up, but I'm not sure it's much better
[05:48] <kitche> erika: yeah that's probably e17 probably have to dig it up someplace
[05:48] <rirudepanci> that explains a lot
[05:49] <addictedtothenet> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=370462
[05:49] <rirudepanci> nalioth: thanks
[05:49] <erika> kitche: it was 17
[05:49] <Dr_willis> superlinux,  i woudl think a read of the qemu docs would be in order.. you have to run qemu with the proper options to tell it to use the .iso files as the cd drive.. I reccomend you just go get vmware-server and use it instead.. or that other Virtuilixation tool.. (but i forget the name)
[05:49] <Dr_willis> what is that other new tool out.. like vmware...
[05:49] <addictedtothenet> thanks qhartman
[05:49] <qhartman> addictedtothenet, can you pastebin in your menu.lst file?
[05:49] <cafuego_> Microsoft Virtual PC?
[05:49] <Dr_willis> http://www.virtualbox.org/
[05:49] <qhartman> addictedtothenet, sure hting
[05:49] <cafuego_> or did you mean Xen?
[05:49] <kitche> Dr_willis: there is vmware virtualbox
[05:50] <Dr_willis> virtualbox seems very nice :) good for testing livecd's
[05:50] <Dr_willis> Im suprised MS hasent sued for a name thats too close to theirs...
[05:50] <rirudepanci> how is it better than vmware?
[05:50] <qhartman> OracleGD_, neither of those pastebins were lsmod output...
[05:50] <cafuego_> sued whom?
[05:50] <superlinux> ok tk u Dr im not able to install eccept then apt-get and adept can u help me install the virtual box now i saved it on desk?
[05:50] <addictedtothenet> its the same as the one in the thread.. i can if you want ho
[05:51] <erika> kitche... do you still have a windoze partition?
[05:51] <addictedtothenet> er
[05:51] <addictedtothenet> tho
[05:51] <qhartman> ok, I'll look at it addictedtothenet

[05:51] <kitche> erika: I run windows right now while I make my own thing
[05:51] <marx2k_> I think Beryl would get real annoying real fast for me
[05:51] <Dr_willis> superlinux,  huh.. why cant you just  download the virtualbox deb and sudo dpkg -i virtualbox.deb (or whatever its called)
[05:52] <Zilulil> ok got xchat
[05:52] <Zilulil> now how do i turn off the logging
[05:52] <superlinux> couse i don't know commands
[05:52] <superlinux> im a begginer
[05:52] <qhartman> addictedtothenet, well, right now your "default" and "timeout" lines are commented out. Uncomment those by removing the # at the beginning and you should be good to go.
[05:52] <crazy_penguin> Good morning!
[05:53] <greig_> Can i ask.... When u download i file onto desktop and want to run it, do u just double click the file?
[05:53] <qhartman> crazy_penguin, Good Evening!
[05:53] <Dr_willis> greig_,  depends on the file.. most likely NO...
[05:53] <crazy_penguin> here it's almost 7 am
[05:53] <OracleGD_> I've been windows free since I've stopped using heroin.
[05:53] <qhartman> greig_, you can, but it won't always do what you want
[05:53] <fnf> greig_: Which type of file ?
[05:53] <Zilulil> arg...must turn off the logging in/out spam!
[05:53] <addictedtothenet> yes i have done that and also changed the values many times and still same result
[05:53] <erika> I have XP on a drive in the basement. My ex husband has been asking my for years why he can't find me online. LOL
[05:53] <crazy_penguin> but, hello qhartman

[05:54] <qhartman> addictedtothenet, you uncommented both lines? if you only do one at a atime it won;t work
[05:54] <Dr_willis> superlinux,  "sudo dpkg -i PACKAGENAME.deb"   for installing things you download.
[05:54] <Zilulil> arg make it stop!
[05:54] <Agrajag> yeah but that's not a deb
[05:54] <superlinux> thanx
[05:54] <Agrajag> er
[05:54] <kelsin> greig_: you type "sudo aptitude install amsn"
[05:54] <rirudepanci> Wimpog: what??? hahaha did you try the forums? i think i have seen something like the problem u are having there
[05:54] <Agrajag> beaten
[05:54] <tetsu> war?
[05:54] <addictedtothenet> no both are commented out.. default is 0 and timeout is 3
[05:54] <kelsin> greig_: you don't use .package files, look up programs you want in synaptic first
[05:54] <rosabonita> How would I boot from CD if I'm tryin to reinstall wndows?

[05:56] <superlinux> so will be sudo dpkg -i VirtualBox_1.3.6_Ubuntu_edgy_i386 .deb right Dr?
[05:56] <kelsin> greig_: that goes over how to install stuff the ubuntu way, should explain a few things
[05:56] <Wimpog> rirudepanci: oh ok thanks
[05:56] <qhartman> addictedtothenet, remove the #'s from lines 1 4and 18 and you should be golden.
[05:56] <cafuego_> Zilulil: It's next to the 'Nuke Teenager' slider

[05:56] <Zilulil> now then
[05:56] <Zilulil> how do i turn off the log in and out spam?
[05:56] <rosabonita> HOW DO I BOOT FROM CD? please exuse the caps, but I'm not getting any answers
[05:56] <Zilulil> you go into BIOS settings
[05:56] <Zilulil> and change the boot order
[05:56] <Zilulil> so that CD is top
[05:56] <rosabonita> Wheres that at?
[05:57] <Zilulil> and HD is belowt hat
[05:57] <damian> hello, I have a question for you, I realized that the mail-notification is not showing anymore in the tray, anyone had the same problem?
[05:57] <gn0me> Actually, another issue that nobody else seems to have encountered-- but just asking again to see if anyone has: When I turn on the compositing manager for metacity, everything goes purple... anyone get that? :P
[05:57] <erika> I've used both... to be honest I'm thinking Automatix works better, irregardless of what regs think of Arnieboy.
[05:57] <kalorin> likely hit either f1 or del on bootup
[05:57] <kalorin> and look at the menus
[05:57] <Dr_willis> rosabonita,  escuse the caps? you going to hold your breath untill you turn blue next if we dont answer?
[05:57] <superlinux> so will be sudo dpkg -i VirtualBox_1.3.6_Ubuntu_edgy_i386 .deb right Dr? if u here?
[05:57] <addictedtothenet> yes i did that ... but no change.. it just says will auto boot in 3 seconds.. and nothing happens till i press enter
[05:57] <qhartman> gn0me, nope, but it does screw up brushes in games for me...
[05:57] <Dr_willis> sudo dpkg -i VirtualBox_1.3.6_Ubuntu_edgy_i386.deb
[05:57] <Zilulil> nobody knows how to turn off the logging spam?
[05:57] <qhartman> addictedtothenet, k
[05:57] <zaydana> what would be the best way to go about getting Apache 2.2 on dapper?
[05:57] <Dr_willis> superlinux,  assuming ya got all the other dependencies installed if any are needed.
[05:57] <superlinux> did correct then wow
[05:58] <gn0me> qhartman: Yeah, the whole screen turns purple, but luckily I don't move my mouse off the checkbox in gconf-editor... heh.
[05:58] <superlinux> well i just took exe from site
[05:58] <theBishop> what is the best program for hosting a webcam stream online?
[05:58] <superlinux> don't know what else i nead
[05:58] <Dr_willis> superlinux,  exe? you dident want a exe ya wanted the .deb :)
[05:58] <Zilulil> ... does linux even use .exe?
[05:58] <Zilulil> yeah .deb
[05:58] <addictedtothenet> i also tried re-installing grub and also grub-install
[05:58] <Zilulil> or .tar
[05:58] <superlinux> yes im still on windows mind ahah
[05:58] <superlinux> sorry
[05:58] <Zilulil> if you have WINE
[05:58] <Zilulil> you can use .exe's
[05:58] <Zilulil> sort of
[05:59] <rosabonita> Please, where is the BIOS settings at?
[05:59] <Zilulil> you reboot the computer
[05:59] <qhartman> addictedtothenet, so it says it will boot in 3, but it never counts down
[05:59] <qhartman> ?
[05:59] <Zilulil> and hit del or f1 as your booting
[05:59] <Zilulil> depending on your computer manufacturer
[05:59] <billy> yo peeps.  what's a good applet that I can have in my panel that will monitor my cpu temp?
[05:59] <ubuntulivecd> hello, i got problems with grub
[05:59] <kmarius> hello everybody, could somebody please tell me how to finally, totally get rid of anything that tries to mess with my display? i've already got rid of gnome-screensaver and xscreensaver, but when i do 'vbetool dpms off' something keeps switching it back on again :/
[06:00] <superlinux> says no file or directory
[06:00] <rosabonita> everyones got questions but no answers :S
[06:00] <superlinux> but i have it on desktop
[06:00] <Dr_willis> superlinux,  one thing about virtual box.. you will need to edit the /etc/group file, (as root) and the last line     vboxusers:x:1003:willis  , (willis is my username) you will need to add your own user names there (instead of willis) to let users run VIrtualbox.. (or use sudo Virtualbox)
[06:00] <fnf> !ask | ubuntulivecd
[06:00] <ubotu> ubuntulivecd: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:00] <docMuerto> fnf: Error: "ask" is not a valid command.
[06:00] <ubuntulivecd> after resizing and moving partitions I cqnt install grub anymore - iget Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.
[06:00] <ubuntu> hello
[06:00] <ubuntu>  I want to reinstall grub ...however when I type "sudo grub-install /dev/hda" it gives me not found or not a block device error
[06:00] <ubuntulivecd> fnf i know
[06:00] <Dr_willis> superlinux,  you realize that command you used said basicially 'look in the current directory for the Virtualbox.deb file?"
[06:01] <ubuntulivecd> but this french keyboard layout kills me
[06:01] <Dr_willis> superlinux,  if its not in the current dir.. give the full path, or cd to where the file is at THEN use the command.. bash 101.
[06:01] <superlinux> im lost
[06:01] <rirudepanci> rosabonita: u have to change the settings of your computer so that it tries to boot from cd first rather than the hard disk
[06:01] <AlienX> beryl question: how do I get beryl to stop fading windows? I'm running ubuntu edgy and I have the window fading option deselected in the settings manager but still no luck
[06:01] <superlinux> isen't there any emulator i just click ?
[06:01] <colbert> Hello, when I do "glxinfo | grep "GLX version"" it returns GLX version 1.2, is this the latest version (I have an ATI Radeon 9700 Pro) ???
[06:01] <Dr_willis> superlinux,  if you cant handle the idea if 'current directory and paths' well i suggest reading a few bash beginner guides.
[06:02] <superlinux> the other one whit gui looked simple dr
[06:02] <superlinux> can't we use qemu?
[06:02] <pierreth> how can I force the installation of a package?
[06:02] <superlinux> i got gui there
[06:02] <stratusfear> any 1 know how can i get xmms working with kjofol plugin?
[06:02] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: /boot is not a block device, did you try rebooting ?. Can you run cfdisk on that HDD ?
[06:02] <Dr_willis> go read the qemu docs,, it dosent have a nice front end. unless theres been some work on it.
[06:02] <ubuntulivecd> fnf yes
[06:02] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: Does cfdisk show some abnormality ?
[06:03] <Zilulil> what is the difference between VMware and Virtual box?
[06:03] <superlinux> ok thanx for help
[06:03] <Dr_willis> superlinux,  hint... do a 'cd Desktop' THEN run that  sudo dpkg -i Whatevercommand
[06:03] <ubuntulivecd> i chrooted in and there the /dev/hda.. dont exist
[06:03] <Dr_willis> Zilulil,  similer tools - different companies
[06:03] <Zilulil> is one better then the other?
[06:03] <sbtaco> hello fellow ubuntuers
[06:03] <Dr_willis> Zilulil,  so far.. vmware seems a little better
[06:03] <stratusfear> any 1 know how can xmms work with kjofol plugin?
[06:03] <Zilulil> ok
[06:03] <ubuntulivecd> fnf: no cfdisk seems to work propper
[06:03] <Dr_willis> vmware seems to have more features.
[06:03] <Zilulil> cause i'm using VMware server right noww
[06:03] <Dr_willis> but Virtualbox's interface is a little nicer in some ways
[06:03] <billy> one time I had problems with GRUB.  i used the super grub disc.  fixed it automatically.
[06:03] <marx2k__> I use VMWare-Server to do visual studio and MS Access projects
[06:03] <Zilulil> meh that i dont' much care about
[06:03] <Zilulil> just need it to run
[06:03] <Zilulil> the faster the better tho
[06:04] <Zilulil> ccause if i could sneak an AA in there
[06:04] <marx2k__> runs with zero problems... aside from USB drive recognition... its a little tricky
[06:04] <Zilulil> that would be great
[06:04] <Dr_willis> try them both.. see what works best for you
[06:04] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: chrooting does not automatically build the system directories sch as /dev.
[06:04] <Zilulil> -_-;; still can't get the logging in and out spam to stop
[06:04] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: You may copy or symlink the /dev from the host system to chrooted environment though.
[06:05] <clitsey> can anyone help me with ati drivers?
[06:05] <stratusfear> does any one know how can i get xmms work with kjofol plugin or kjofol skin?
[06:05] <stratusfear> does any one know how can i get xmms work with kjofol plugin or kjofol skin?
[06:05] <rosabonita> I tried hitting f1 and del while rebooting, but it didnt work. Wheres the BIOS settings?
[06:05] <crdlb> clitsey, fglrx or free?
[06:05] <marx2k__> rosabonita, what kind of computer is it?
[06:05] <marx2k__> OEM? Gateway? Dell?
[06:05] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: btw, I don't use chroot to reinstall GRUB.
[06:05] <Dr_willis> rosabonita,  depends on your machine. could be f1, delete, backspace, f12, f11, or any other keys...
[06:05] <rosabonita> Toshiba Sattelite
[06:05] <ubuntulivecd> fnf: ln -s that works ?
[06:05] <marx2k__> F10
[06:05] <clitsey> crdlb: fglrx
[06:05] <marx2k__> oh wait
[06:05] <marx2k__> Toshiba
[06:05] <marx2k__> F10 is Compaq
[06:06] <marx2k__> google: Toshiba Satellite Bios
[06:06] <crdlb> clitsey, have you tried envy?
[06:06] <stratusfear> does any one know how can i get xmms work with kjofol plugin or kjofol skin?
[06:06] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: just mount your boot partition to /boot, invoke grub, set root(<your part number>) then install.
[06:06] <GigaClon> rosabonita,  it should say somewhere on the bootup screen
[06:06] <clitsey> crdlb: no, but my video card is a mobility 9700 if that means much
[06:06] <marx2k__> is Ubuntulivecd trying to reinstall grub?
[06:06] <ubuntulivecd> i dont have  a boot partition , it s part of /
[06:06] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: I rarely chroot to reinstall GRUB, but the method I mentioned above does work.
[06:06] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: ah,alright.
[06:07] <rosabonita> Giga It also said hit esc for menu but it didnt do anything but give me a list of Ubuntu
[06:07] <marx2k__> download and burn the Grub Rescue CD
[06:07] <walla> does anyone know how i could go about making the workspace switcher transparent?
[06:07] <clitsey> crdlb: im trying to get xgl working right, will envy work well with that?
[06:07] <stratusfear> does any one know how can i get xmms work with kjofol plugin or kjofol skin?
[06:07] <rirudepanci> rosabonita: altho there is not much time take a close look at the first screen the comp shows when it powers on, it should say something like "press X to enter BIOS setup"
[06:07] <marx2k__> stratusfear, stop repeating every 30 seconds
[06:07] <crdlb> clitsey, envy is a script that installs the drivers for you
[06:07] <marx2k__> you get much less help that way
[06:07] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: can you tell me the process you did again ? what step did it error out ?
[06:08] <crdlb> clitsey, however with that card I would try the free radeon driver
[06:08] <clitsey> crdlb: where is this script?
[06:08] <ubuntulivecd> fnf: mv for the whole system
[06:08] <ubuntulivecd> it kinda hung up the live cd
[06:08] <crdlb> clitsey, http://www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[06:08] <clitsey> crdlb: how can i get it and install it farely easily?
[06:08] <rirudepanci> rosabonita: sadly the key to press is different depending on the computer motherboard
[06:09] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: you mean you migrated an existing installation to a new partition ?
[06:09] <ubuntulivecd> fnf: yes
[06:09] <marx2k__> ubuntulivecd, http://supergrub.forjamari.linex.org/
[06:09] <ubuntulivecd> the existing was to small
[06:09] <rosabonita> Rirude< So just keep pushing different buttons til Iget it?:S
[06:09] <crdlb> clitsey, I would edit Xorg.conf and set Driver to "radeon" which will use the preinstalled open source driver first
[06:10] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: well, then expect problems other than just GRUB. I often did it the more proper way.
[06:10] <rirudepanci> rosabonita: http://www.michaelstevenstech.com/bios_manufacturer.htm
[06:10] <dodgyville> Hello
[06:10] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: backup your home folder first if it's nor already in a separate partition.
[06:10] <crdlb> clitsey, if the free driver does not work, then try to run the envy script which will install fglrx
[06:10] <rirudepanci> rosabonita: http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/faq.jsp?service=UK&FID=0000000401
[06:10] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: ok ?
[06:10] <CarlFK> how do I clear out the apt-get cache to free up some space on / ?
[06:10] <rosabonita> Thanks Rirude :D
[06:10] <marx2k__> rosabonita,  http://www.michaelstevenstech.com/bios_manufacturer.htm

[06:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about w32coecs - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:12] <marx2k__> graft, alsamixer?
[06:12] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: yup, but it /will/ cause problems for applications that depend on numbered partition (hda1 now is hda7 for example). How about your /etx/fstab and many more old configuration files ?
[06:12] <graft> !w32codecs | Superdave132
[06:12] <docMuerto> graft: Error: "w32codecs" is not a valid command.
[06:12] <ubotu> Superdave132: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[06:12] <ubuntulivecd> marx2k__: yes i will, but to get a blank cd takes about 1h
[06:12] <jrm4> So, I've just hooked up a PII / 128 mg memory old box to a TV, ubuntu's running fine, but seems a bit sluggish, even with just IceWM/Ratpoison--any ideas on tweaking it, or possibly another distro?
[06:12] <Superdave132> graft, thanks
[06:12] <graft> argh
[06:12] <graft> anyway, you get the idea
[06:12] <dodgyville> hmm
[06:12] <marx2k__> ubuntulivecd, ohh.. i just take it for granted that everyone has a platter of blank CDs with them :)
[06:13] <crdlb> Superdave132, what player are you using?
[06:13] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: backup your config files then do a new installation is much problem-free. That's just a few steps.
[06:13] <Dr_willis> marx2k__,  i knwo I do! :)
[06:13] <graft> why are there two bots here, anyway?
[06:13] <Superdave132> the movie player(totem)
[06:13] <marx2k__> jrm4: you can kill ptty3,4,5 and 6
[06:13] <graft> marx2k__: alsamixer?
[06:13] <Zilulil> wow
[06:13] <Madpilot> graft, because they're the most intelligent things in the channel ;)
[06:13] <marx2k__> graft: type it into a console
[06:13] <Zilulil> my EVE setup is moving sloooowwwww
[06:13] <crdlb> Superdave132, if it is using gstreamer, win32codecs will have no effect
[06:13] <Zilulil> using wine
[06:14] <graft> marx2k__: okay, and then?
[06:14] <Madpilot> graft, actually, docMuerto is not invited...
[06:14] <marx2k__> play wit it
[06:14] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: In particular, /etc for configs, /var/cache/apt/archives for packages cache and your home directory, done!.
[06:14] <jrm4> that eats memory? wow.
[06:14] <Superdave132> crdlb, what should i use?
[06:14] <walla> does anyone know how i could go about making the workspace switcher transparent?
[06:14] <graft> marx2k__: i'm unsure what oyu mean... there's nomidi-related stuff here at all
[06:14] <crdlb> Superdave132, Do you have gst-plugins-ffmpeg ?
[06:14] <marx2k__> jrm4: having virtual consoles open eats memory, yeah :)
[06:15] <Zilulil> how do i mount my window's drive? it isn't showing up
[06:15] <marx2k__> graft: there should be... but... then I dont know!! :(
[06:15] <Zilulil> i'm using Edgy
[06:15] <marx2k__> you should have a section for playback, recording and MIDI
[06:15] <Superdave132> crdlb i dont know
[06:15] <Superdave132> no
[06:15] <fnf> walla: These kinds of applets haven't been upgraded to work with composited X, I think  we may just wait.
[06:15] <rirudepanci> ctrl+alt+f1?
[06:15] <jrm4> ps, marx2k__ if that's anywhere near your real last name, we may be related
[06:15] <marx2k__> jrm4, it isnt :)

[06:16] <marx2k__> what fs does mac use?
[06:16] <sbtaco> I really wish ubuntu wasn't dropping ppc support
[06:16] <zaydana> i've got backports on my sources.list ... so how do I tell apt-get that I actually want to use the backports repo for apache2?
[06:16] <marx2k__> sbtaco: Im surprised they are..
[06:17] <ubuntulivecd> damit how to burn a cd on a live system :(
[06:17] <rirudepanci> why are they doin that?
[06:17] <sbtaco> marx2k__, yeah I am too. I think the reasons was because of a lack of funding
[06:17] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: cdrecord
[06:17] <marx2k__> rirudepanci, lack of users
[06:17] <Madpilot> ubuntulivecd, got twin CD drives?
[06:17] <marx2k__> sbtaco i dont think funding is a problem in ubuntu
[06:17] <rirudepanci> aaahh
[06:17] <toresbe> Howdy folks!
[06:17] <marx2k__> its funded by a man with a lot lot lot of money :)
[06:17] <toresbe> I'm running Edgy right now, in IA32 mode.
[06:18] <ubuntulivecd> fnf: its a laptop  - one drive only
[06:18] <sbtaco> marx2k__,  I agree, that's the whole point behind OSS
[06:18] <toresbe> Are there any instructions anywhere on how to upgrade to feisty?
[06:18] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: get comfortale with the CLI ;) a lot of good stuff are there.
[06:18] <Madpilot> ubuntulivecd, then you're kind of out of luck...
[06:18] <ubuntulivecd> fnf i am
[06:18] <toresbe> Is it possible just to change the sources.list and do a dist-upgrade?
[06:18] <crdlb> Superdave132, on ubuntu it's called gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg
[06:18] <Madpilot> toresbe, possible, not recommended
[06:18] <toresbe> Madpilot: I see - why is that?
[06:18] <Madpilot> ubotu, upgrade | toresbe
[06:18] <ubotu> toresbe: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[06:18] <toresbe> thanks
[06:19] <Superdave132> let me check
[06:19] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: that's tricky. but not impossible.
[06:19] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: shutdown the X server first.
[06:19] <vexati0n> why is VPN support on linux so patchy?
[06:19] <Superdave132> crdlb, no should i install it?
[06:20] <crdlb> Superdave132, yes
[06:20] <toresbe> Madpilot: Nothing other than "it's testing and will set fire to your cat" type bad idea, then?
[06:20] <ubuntulivecd> fnf well i hope most of ubuntu live is in the ramdisk now ...
[06:20] <nowhere> Who is willing to help me troubleshoot problems with connecting to WIFI network with WPA encryption?
[06:20] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: in the console, invoke cdrecord once to make it cached, then "eject cdrom", insert a blank CD and you're good to  go.
[06:21] <Superdave132> crdlb do i need to log out then back in?
[06:21] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: use the console to make that wishful thinking true :)
[06:21] <crdlb> Superdave132, no just restart totem
[06:21] <Madpilot> toresbe, for Ubuntu, the GUI is the recommended upgrade path now - and you're talking about Feisty, then yes, it is still in beta, and might just do something terrible to your cat...
[06:21] <deepsa> which is channel for discussion of fiesty herd4?
[06:21] <toresbe> Madpilot: Ah. Well, that's not a problem for me: I don't have a cat.
[06:21] <Madpilot> deepsa, #ubuntu+1
[06:21] <deepsa> thanks
[06:21] <toresbe> Madpilot: ;)
[06:22] <toresbe> see, I'm a maestro of logic.
[06:22] <Superdave132> crdlb, says i dont have the right decoder
[06:22] <fnf> ubuntulivecd: I tried that once and it worked, but with the GUI enabled, the system just hang in a couple of seconds.
[06:22] <crdlb> Superdave132, what kind of .mov is it?
[06:22] <toresbe> Madpilot: fair enough, thanks. I'll upgradify soon, and start filling out bug reports.
[06:23] <Superdave132> crdlb, quictime, no wonder
[06:23] <Beverage> hey folks i need to know what the original restriction was on /var folder i accidentally set it to 777 and i need to change it back to defualt
[06:23] <toresbe> BTW, anyone here experience random freezes while displaying 3D when using the binary fglrx drivers with a 9200 SE?
[06:23] <vexati0n> hi.. i'm using Feisty, fully updated to whatever it's at now, but am having the same problems with GParted i've had with the last 2 versions of Ubuntu...
[06:23] <Offset-> ubuntu live is running like trash on a spare laptop i'm trying to install on. any way to install without live? maybe alt install disc?
[06:23] <rellik> I'm trying to set up my printer..  the ubuntu "add printer" utility correctly detects the printer (Dell Proto Printer 720) on step 1, but on step two it asks for my printer manufacturer..  and under Dell there are only two models (not mine)..  do I have to find the driver manually?
[06:23] <crdlb> Superdave132, can you install gstreamer0.10-pitfdll ?
[06:23] <marx2k__> drwxr-xr-x  15 root root  4096 2006-10-25 08:39 var
[06:24] <Superdave132> let me try
[06:24] <toresbe> toresbe@fortran:~$ ls -ld /var
[06:24] <toresbe> drwxr-xr-x 15 root root 4096 2006-10-28 04:29 /var
[06:24] <toresbe> Beverage: See above - 755.
[06:24] <Superdave132> crdlb, its on there
[06:24] <fnf> vexati0n: tried cfdisk ?
[06:24] <toresbe> marx2k__: beat me to it!
[06:24] <marx2k__> toresbe,  knows chmod calculations
[06:25] <crdlb> Superdave132, have you installed the win32codecs?
[06:25] <Offset-> Will the alternate install disc let me bypass using live and jump straight to install? anybody-_-
[06:25] <toresbe> marx2k__: haha - octal comes in handy when you're coding machine code on 1970s computers :)
[06:25] <barf> how can I install libgl1-mesa-dev? I'm seeing "Depends: libgl1-mesa (= 6.4.1-0ubuntu8) but 6.5.1+cvs20060824 is to be installed"
[06:25] <ubuntulivecd> bye guys i hope the cd will do gotta go to bed ...
[06:25] <Superdave132> crdlb, let me try that
[06:25] <marx2k__> toresbe codes machine code on 1970s computers
[06:25] <vexati0n> fnf: no
[06:25] <toresbe> marx2k__: $ uname -nrm
[06:25] <toresbe> basic.lan 2.11BSD pdp11
[06:26] <marx2k__> whoa
[06:26] <bigjohntoday> an update for issues with installation of ubuntu on Intel Core 2 Duo motherboards etc..... their are not that many supported Linux Distro's for Intel motherboard D946GZIS..... and many others .... well if anyone is having issues with isntallations on that motherboard that is your cause.... either purchase windows or purchase enterprise desktops for it!!!! just thought to let everyone know
[06:26] <toresbe> marx2k__: It's my purty love
[06:26] <marx2k__> nerd! :)
[06:26] <toresbe> marx2k__: guilty as charged :)
[06:26] <toresbe> marx2k__: telnet toresbe.homelinux.org 4000 :)
[06:26] <whta> what's the most recommended fix around now for fixing flash video/audio sync in firefox?
[06:26] <fnf> vexati0n: cfdisk is a lot more standard-compliant to use than any disk partitioner I've used. That means there's very little ch ance it will corrupt your partition table.
[06:27] <marx2k__> maaaaaaan
[06:27] <digi_> what would you call software that controls building entry/security?
[06:27] <fnf> vexati0n: But it's very strict, let's just hope your part table has not been messed up.
[06:27] <marx2k__> you should be working for NASA or something :D
[06:27] <vexati0n> fnf: the partition table isn't the problem. the problem is that i delete a partition, then when i try to create a new one, the old one comes back (never deleted at all) and ubuntu automounts it.
[06:27] <Superdave132> crdlb,is that in the repositories?
[06:27] <vexati0n> fnf: but "parted" in the terminal works fine by itself.
[06:27] <toresbe> marx2k__: It's not that hard, really. It's a lot of fun, and very educational.
[06:28] <toresbe> The PDP-11 instruction set is very elegant.
[06:28] <marx2k__> I guess Im just stuck dealing with higher level lanbguages
[06:28] <marx2k__> languages
[06:28] <fnf> vexati0n: that might be a sign that your partition table /was/ messed up. try cfdisk to see it if will run on your HDD.
[06:28] <Madpilot> hmm... Can existing ext3 partions be safely extended into empty, unpartitioned HD space w/o risking the data?
[06:28] <crdlb> Superdave132, I don't know what repository it's in but it's called w32codecs on my ubuntu box
[06:28] <timfrost> Offset-: yes.  The alternate CD is intended to provide a text-mode install environment - it offers a variety of install options
[06:28] <marx2k__> Madpilot, yes
[06:28] <marx2k__> the newer gparted does that for you
[06:28] <toresbe> marx2k__: check out bitsavers.org/pdf/dec/ and apt-get install simh
[06:28] <marx2k__> you can grow the partition left or right
[06:28] <unop> !w32codecs
[06:28] <ubotu> Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[06:28] <toresbe> marx2k__: gobs of fun.
[06:28] <rellik> I'm trying to set up my printer..  the ubuntu "add printer" utility correctly detects the printer (Dell Proto Printer 720) on step 1, but on step two it asks for my printer manufacturer..  and under Dell there are only two models (not mine)..  do I have to find the driver manually?
[06:28] <fnf> vexati0n: gparted is parted's front-end, so they're basically the same.
[06:28] <Beverage> toresbe, so id do sudo chmod 755 /var right?
[06:29] <Superdave132> crdlb, had it in here before, having  hard time finding it now
[06:29] <whta> what's the most recommended fix around now for fixing flash video/audio sync in firefox?
[06:29] <toresbe> Beverage: correct.
[06:29] <marx2k__> toresbe: man, I got stuff to do! That would take a nice chunk of my life
[06:29] <toresbe> marx2k__: haha
[06:29] <Beverage> okay thansk
[06:29] <Madpilot> marx2k__, good news, thanks. With only one HD currently, I'm a bit twitchy about data loss... I really need to set up RAID...
[06:29] <toresbe> marx2k__: yeah. It really is a huge timesink..
[06:29] <unop> whta,  what version of flash?
[06:29] <crdlb> Superdave132, can I get a copy of the mov file?
[06:29] <toresbe> marx2k__: and once you start collecting hardware, it tends to be hard to stop. :)
[06:29] <xose> hello
[06:29] <toresbe> hey xose
[06:30] <marx2k__> toresbe, I seem to have a goldmine of outdated hardwarre
[06:30] <xose> hi
[06:30] <whta> unop: ah i don't even remember which one i have now.. how can i check the plugin info?
[06:30] <crdlb> Superdave132, also do you have mplayer installed?
[06:30] <Superdave132> crdlb, how
[06:30] <fnf> Beverage: yup, there're a few exceptions though: crash, lock and tmp are sticky.
[06:30] <toresbe> marx2k__: cool, what kinda stuff?
[06:30] <marx2k__> ISA serial/com port extenders, 300bps modems, etc
[06:30] <toresbe> marx2k__: beautiful!
[06:30] <rellik> apparently the Dell 720 photo printer is just a repackaged lexmark z600..  but the printer installer doesn't have that listed either..  is there a different lexmark I could try?
[06:30] <unop> whta,  open up firefox and navigate to about:plugins
[06:30] <crdlb> Superdave132, I mean did you get it off a website?
[06:30] <toresbe> marx2k__: hang on, I've got a picture somewhere...
[06:30] <marx2k__> though the 300bps modem is a hayes modem from the C64
[06:30] <xose> how can install a tar pack
[06:30] <toresbe> http://toresbe.at.ifi.uio.no/miscpix2/smaller/p1310004.jpg
[06:30] <whta> unop: ok I have version 9
[06:30] <toresbe> marx2k__: there ^^^
[06:30] <marx2k__> xose: a tar file is just a packaged file
[06:30] <vexati0n> fnf: does cfdisk support as many different types of partitions that parted does? i use this for work so i have to be able to create ntfs/fatXX/hfs/hfs+ partitions
[06:31] <xose> right
[06:31] <Beverage> okay so I just installed apache2 and php4 and when i go to http://localhost and try to open my test php file it asks me if i want to download it, what did I do wrong?
[06:31] <toresbe> marx2k__: connecting to a BBS at 300 baud with couplers and a cellphone. :D
[06:31] <xose> how plz
[06:31] <fnf> vexati0n: cfdisk does partitioning your disk, but not formatting, you'll then use mkfs.ext3 or else to format them.
[06:31] <toresbe> xose: what are you trying to install?
[06:31] <xose> a peer guardian
[06:32] <xose> moblock
[06:32] <marx2k__> Hmmm... I did that with a 1200 bps modem... got on IRC through a BBS unix portal... but didnt use a coupler
[06:32] <marx2k__> thats leet
[06:32] <vexati0n> fnf: i'll give it a shot. but i think the problem is with ubuntu's automount service, which god knows how to just kill
[06:32] <james296> what is the name of that one program that lets you easily and quickly install the latest nvidia driver called?
[06:32] <crdlb> Superdave132, if you have mplayer, please run midentify movie.mov and pastebin the output
[06:32] <rirudepanci> automatix
[06:32] <unop> whta,  hmm, i dunno really .. i used to have that problem a lot on flash 7 .. with flash 9, most videos play fine but there's one or two everynow and then that go out of sync
[06:32] <zaydana> how would I tell apt-get that I want to use apache 2.2 from dapper-backports instead of the normal apache?
[06:32] <fnf> vexati0n: makes sure to reboot after modifying the parts then.
[06:32] <marx2k__> bahahaha thats the most ghetto setup Ive seen in a while, toresbe
[06:32] <kalorin> ok call me stupid
[06:32] <kalorin> what does stick do for a window under X?
[06:33] <toresbe> marx2k__: :)
[06:33] <james296> well?
[06:33] <Superdave132> crdlb, yeah it's a free copy of adrenaline hunters off the new bittorrent site
[06:33] <rirudepanci> james296: automatix
[06:33] <james296> no
[06:33] <james296> lol
[06:33] <marx2k__> it would only be cooler if you were doing in on a portable Commodore PET+4 or a Texas Instruments lappy
[06:33] <crdlb> james296, envy
[06:33] <Flannel> rirudepanci: please don't recommend automatix here.
[06:33] <mindstate> im having trouble installing a .sh file when i type "sh file.sh"  i get this output error "setup.sh: 9: function: not found x86" any help?
[06:33] <james296> this isnt even a program, its a script
[06:33] <unop> zaydana,  first of all, have you got the backports repostory added to atp's sources.list ? and also updated apt?
[06:33] <xose> toresbe
[06:33] <james296> envy
[06:33] <james296> thats it
[06:33] <zaydana> unop - yup...
[06:33] <james296> thanks :d
[06:33] <marx2k__> whats wrong with automatix?
[06:33] <rirudepanci> flannel: i didnt recommend now, did i?
[06:33] <toresbe> xose: yes? oh, moblock?
[06:33] <Flannel> !automatix
[06:33] <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
[06:33] <james296> how are the ratings for that script anyway?
[06:34] <james296> what do ppl say about it?
[06:34] <marx2k__> interesting
[06:34] <xose> yeah
[06:34] <toresbe> xose: dunno
[06:34] <unop> zaydana,  what candidates does this command give you?  apt-cache policy apache2
[06:34] <tm4> i've never had any problems with automatix
[06:34] <xose> k
[06:34] <fnf> james296: I personally don't trust it.
[06:34] <tm4> but i don't use it to install a ton of software, either
[06:34] <crdlb> Superdave132, do you have mplayer?
[06:34] <Flannel> james296, marx2k__, it breaks stuff... horribly.  Don't use it.
[06:34] <marx2k__> the only problem Ive ever had with automatix is it didnt set proper perms for azureus
[06:34] <Flannel> !worksforme
[06:34] <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.
[06:34] <Superdave132> crdlb, yes
[06:34] <marx2k__> well, now that I think about it, it also didnt install Flash correctly
[06:34] <toresbe> marx2k__: A few years ago, when I was 17, I was living at an orphanage, they refused me access to the Internet because I was "hacking" (that is, using a terminal)
[06:34] <marx2k__> but it DID install Java JDK right! :)
[06:34] <tm4> marx2k__ ditto =)
[06:34] <zaydana> unop - there aint any 2.2 there... only two seperate 2.0s :-/
[06:34] <crdlb> Superdave132, can it play the file?
[06:34] <james296> envy does?
[06:34] <Superdave132> crdlb, no
[06:34] <xose> lol
[06:34] <tm4> ha - envy broke my system earlier today
[06:34] <toresbe> marx2k__: But they're obligated by law to let me use the phone.
[06:34] <Flannel> marx2k__: and you got lucky that it also didn't 'correctly' force you to reinstall to get a working computer
[06:34] <kelsin> marx2k__: sun's java is a one line apt install now
[06:35] <marx2k__> toresbe, this sounds like its a scene from WarGames
[06:35] <tm4> the ati driver sucks harder than any other piece of software i've ever used on linux
[06:35] <james296> then what can I do to get Beryl working properly? the window borders arent showing :-(
[06:35] <kelsin> tm4: agreed
[06:35] <marx2k__> Flannel: whoa... yeah Ive not had that problem ever
[06:35] <Flannel> james296: #ubuntu-effects for beryl support
[06:35] <tm4> i ended up using the driver that ships with ubuntu and modifying my xorg.conf to work
[06:35] <toresbe> marx2k__: soooo... I went in there with a ghettoed-up laptop and a coupler, and dialled up a VMS system in the Netherlands :D
[06:35] <crdlb> Superdave132, open a terminal and run 'midentify movie.mov' then use the paste site in the topic
[06:35] <james296> k
[06:35] <unop> zaydana,  perhaps this? sudo aptitude install apache2=2.2  (or apache=2.2)
[06:35] <Flannel> marx2k__: we get them all the time.  When automatix goes wrong, you need to reinstall.  And, just because stuff is working now, doesn't mean stuff won't break horribly when you upgrade
[06:36] <tm4> i was using xgl + beryl + ati proprietary driver. sucked horribly. aiglx + open source = money
[06:36] <toresbe> marx2k__: http://toresbe.at.ifi.uio.no/homes/bwg/p1010008.jpg :)
[06:36] <dodgyville> Anyone had trouble deleting garbage-name files using "rm -rf" ?
[06:36] <zaydana> unop - I might of got it wrong, maybe there isn't apache 2.2 in dapper-backports. You have any idea how i'd check to make sure?
[06:36] <marx2k__> Flannel: yeah I used to use it a lot when I firsty started with linux... now I just end up doing everything myself
[06:36] <toresbe> marx2k__: Oh yeah - I've actually *touched* an IMSAI!
[06:36] <timfrost> dodgyville: what sort of file names?
[06:36] <unop> zaydana,  well, check what's available for you?  aptitude search apache
[06:36] <toresbe> http://toresbe.at.ifi.uio.no/imsai/p1010007.jpg <-- that's me, posing with the trophy :)
[06:37] <marx2k__> the Centrino sticker really caps it off there
[06:37] <Flannel> zaydana, unop, Apache2.2 is in Feisty
[06:37] <unop> dodgyville,  garbage-name?
[06:37] <dodgyville> timfrost, /\026nN.i'
[06:37] <Flannel> dodgyville: tab-complete not work?
[06:37] <marx2k__> hahaha now THAT looks like a scene from WarGames
[06:37] <dodgyville> Flannel: No, and there's hundreds of them
[06:37] <Superdave132> crdlb, cant get the command right,says command not found
 rocks.. figured out my grub problem when no one else could.. THANKS FOR EVERYTHING
[06:38] <toresbe> marx2k__: that's the same model as the Wargames computer :)
[06:38] <unop> dodgyville,  what i tend to do is use this command -- rm -rfiv ./*   (and answer no to all the files except the one you want deleting)
[06:38] <marx2k__> toresbe: thats nerdy to the extreme
[06:38] <toresbe> thank you thank you :)
[06:38] <zaydana> oh my mistake, there isn't apache2 in dapper-backports
[06:38] <zaydana> doh.
[06:38] <hagabaka> dodgyville: what trouble do you have?
[06:38] <Flannel> zaydana: if you want 2.2, you'll need to wait (and upgrade) to feisty
[06:39] <CarlFK> anyone know of a small qemu disk image I can dl to test my qemu install?
[06:39] <unop> zaydana,  or try yourluck building from source
[06:39] <Flannel> zaydana: any particular reason you want it?
[06:39] <tm4> does anyone know what exactly what AGPFastWrite does and how beneficial it is?
[06:39] <zaydana> yeah, so I can get mod_proxy_balancer and use mongrel/apache for rails
[06:39] <zaydana> I think I might have to try and build it frmo source
[06:40] <Flannel> zaydana: or upgrade to feisty
[06:40] <dodgyville> hagabaka: Can not lstat <filename>: input/output error
[06:40] <zaydana> flannel - can you upgrade already?
[06:40] <mindstate> is there a program that creates virtual cd drives similar to daemon tools on windows?
[06:40] <Flannel> zaydana: sure, Feisty is still alpha though
[06:40] <qhartman> mindstate, don't need one.
[06:40] <zaydana> eek... might be better to try source first
[06:40] <Flannel> zaydana: but, if you're not using X, it should be reasonably stablish.  Since... well, that's where most stuff goes wrong ;)
[06:40] <mindstate> qhartman, i need it to mount a .bin
[06:40] <zaydana> oh, right
[06:40] <qhartman> mindstate, you just need to make an ISO of the CD, and then you cn mount it.
[06:41] <zaydana> well, Its dapper server amd64
[06:41] <zaydana> I guess I could give it a try...
[06:41] <Flannel> zaydana: You might ask in #ubuntu+1 though, since, I don't know for sure.  They'd be able to tell you more
[06:41] <bimberi> !prevu | zaydana, another option is to backport it.
[06:41] <ubotu> zaydana, another option is to backport it.: prevu is an automated, personal backporting utility. Check out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Prevu for more details
[06:41] <abelle> yo
[06:41] <qhartman> mindstate, you'll likely need to convert it to an iso before you can do much with it. Unfortunately I'm not versed in that.
[06:41] <hueblur_> what's that one-click installer?  klix?
[06:42] <zaydana> bimberi - thanks, that looks like it could be worth a shot
[06:42] <toresbe> anyway, I'm off now, thanks for the help. Happy hacking.
[06:42] <abelle> you tell me ;)
[06:42] <crdlb> Superdave132, I guess ubuntu compiles mplayer w/o it
[06:42] <nowhere> When using command: "sudo ifup ra0" it starts to output a list of DHCPDISCOVER, does that mean my wireless network is working? Or how can I find out?
[06:42] <marx2k__> So when feisty is released, how do people with edgy upgrade? (keeping in mind how edgy broke a bunch of dapper distros)
[06:42] <Superdave132> crdlb, i guess so
[06:42] <tm4> marx2k__: i keep all of my files on a /home partition and do a clean install
[06:42] <Flannel> marx2k__: upgrade same as always.  Feisty is 7.04, so it'll be released in april (4) of 2007
[06:42] <tm4> i've never been a fan of upgrades. not with linux, and definitely not with microsoft
[06:42] <qhartman> marx2k__, most of those dappers that broke were using non-standard repos
[06:43] <crdlb> Superdave132, mplayer definitely will play it if you get the right version and plugins
[06:43] <Jj> hello
[06:43] <nowhere> nobody forces you to upgrade
[06:43] <Jj> Im having problems burning a DVD
[06:43] <nf4> i never had a problem upgrading ubuntu
[06:43] <Jj> I cant a solution online :S
[06:43] <Flannel> marx2k__: yeah, edgy upgrades were fine when you used only official repos, it's automatix and other 3rd party crap that causes the headaches
[06:43] <marx2k__> Ahh
[06:43] <qhartman> Jj, what's going on exactly?
[06:43] <Superdave132> icrdlb, tell me which plugins i need with it?
[06:43] <Jj> "media is not recognized as recordable DVD" <- all i find is forum posts with the problem, but not a solution
[06:43] <cypher1> is anyone is using activkey usb in ubuntu
[06:43] <Jj> qhartman: Im trying to burn a DVD with gnomebaker...
[06:43] <marx2k__> Oh sweet... Im using feisty in VMWare... with the latest update they put back the administrative menu the way it was
[06:43] <marx2k__> niiiice
[06:44] <Jj> I never had the problem in Gentoo (same hardware)
[06:44] <wtfgsh> hi
[06:44] <boodhi> quit
[06:44] <crdlb> Superdave132, with mplayer, plugins must be enabled at compile-time
[06:44] <ardchoille> What exactly is framebuffer for? I thought is was for running x apps in tty 1-6
[06:44] <qhartman> Jj, what dvd tools do you have installed?
[06:44] <Superdave132> crdlb, so you saying i cant play the file?
[06:45] <crdlb> Superdave132, does the directory /usr/lib/win32/ exist
[06:45] <Jj> dvd+rw-tools libdvdcss2 libdvdread3 ogle
[06:45] <Superdave132> crdlb, no
[06:45] <Jj> I ran dpkg -l | grep -i dvd
[06:45] <nowhere> Does this mean I am connected to the wireless network or not, if not, what could be the problem? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7750/
[06:45] <vexati0n> so.. i installed windows vista on my laptop... and it made me giggle.
[06:45] <The_Ranman> Intsalling vista is suicide
[06:45] <crdlb> Superdave132, then you do not have the right w32codecs pack installed
[06:46] <nowhere> installing ubuntu sometimes can be too....
[06:46] <vexati0n> The_Ranman: its okay it's in a quarantined partition
[06:46] <Superdave132> yeah, ive got a book in looking it up in
[06:46] <bimberi> zaydana: np :)  it will be interesting and educational at the very least :)
[06:46] <The_Ranman> vexation: whew close
[06:46] <qhartman> you _might_ want to install dvdrtools. I've heard that it works in some cases where dvd+rw fails. I haven't used it myself though, so I can't vouch for it.
[06:46] <nf4> i like that idea vista has to try and stop dvds from being copied
[06:46] <zaydana> so how would I use dpkg to install a .deb I downloaded?
[06:46] <vexati0n> it runs nice. and it's very pretty. kinda cute, really, how ms works themselves to death for 6 years to produce.. that.
[06:47] <Jj> dvd+rw-mediainfo /dev/hdd
[06:47] <Jj> INQUIRY:                [HL-DT-ST] [DVD-RAM GSA-H20N] [1.00] 
[06:47] <Jj> :-( no media mounted, exiting...
[06:47] <Beverage> hey guys how do i change my splash screen?
[06:47] <Jj> I tried with different brands of blank DVDs
[06:47] <nowhere> Who is willing to take a look -> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7750/ ?
[06:47] <The_Ranman> zaydana I think theres this tool called alien... wait nvm  think that's for RPM files
[06:47] <unop>  zaydana - dpkg -i package.deb  (but if you are trying this on apache2.2, it's unlikely to work)
[06:47] <qhartman> nowhere, *looking*
[06:47] <nowhere> thanks qhartman
[06:47] <vexati0n> Beverage: sudo apt-get gnome-splashscreen-manager
[06:47] <zaydana> unop - nah, its for prevu
[06:48] <Beverage> thanks
[06:48] <bdan44> ranman?
[06:48] <dodgyville> Hmm, how can I run fsck on a removable drive when ejecting in ubuntu removes it's /dev entry?
[06:48] <vexati0n> oops. put "install" in there too.
[06:48] <unop> zaydana,  ahh :) , dpkg -i ...
[06:48] <vexati0n> <-noober than yuo
[06:48] <zaydana> I guess I need to manually install dependencies?
[06:48] <qhartman> nowhere, looks like it's trying to get a lease, but not getting a response. If this is wireless (looks like it is) paste in the output of "iwconfig".
[06:48] <h3h_timo> could anyone help me install the 686 kernel??
[06:48] <matt1234> anyone know where firestarter stores its firewall logs?
[06:48] <unop> zaydana,  yes, they need to exist in the same directory as that package
[06:49] <marx2k__> matt1234,  i dont know that it does
[06:49] <marx2k__> but then again I dont know :0
[06:49] <zaydana> unop - its alright if I just install them using apt-get tho, isn't it?
[06:49] <Superdave132> crdlb, found it, thanks for the help
[06:49] <unop> zaydana,  well, that is the preferred way to do it .. so yea
[06:49] <zaydana> okie dokie
[06:49] <marx2k__> !aptitude
[06:49] <ubotu> aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT, like apt-get. However, aptitude can remember the dependencies installed with a package and remove them if you uninstall. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptitudeSurvivalGuide
[06:49] <crdlb> Superdave132, so it works?
[06:50] <nowhere> qhartman: I tried to submit it but *lol* it thinks I'm a spammer...
[06:50] <timfrost> zaydana: did you get the .deb from a Ubuntu site?
[06:50] <matt1234> marx2k__, i found someone port scanning me, and he's running a dns server.... probably running a bot farm or something
[06:50] <zaydana> timfrost - from sf.net
[06:50] <Superdave132> crdlb, not yet, but you gave me the missing link tip
[06:50] <matt1234> so i'm trying to send my firewall logs to my ISP
[06:50] <marx2k__> matt shouldnt your router be blocking that
[06:50] <The_Ranman> something strange is happening to my keyboard it... seemingly randomly goes back three or four words and starts typing again
[06:50] <detectiveinspekt> mplayer plugin how do i do it
[06:50] <detectiveinspekt> for firefox
[06:50] <oscar> matt1234 lol and what do you think your ISP will do?
[06:51] <Jj> qhartman: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75496&highlight=media+is+-recognized+as+recordable+DVD
[06:51] <unop> matt1234,  be prepared for a long wait or even for your ISP to ignore you :)  everyone gets scanned (sometimes everyday) when on the net, it's just the way it is
[06:51] <Jj> here is solved by changing the disk... didnt work for me
[06:51] <nowhere> qhartman, can you come #nowhere ?
[06:51] <matt1234> oscar, i dunno, i could call them direct though, i work with them daily
[06:51] <timfrost> zaydana: was it targetted fro Ubuntu, or for debian?  Because a package built for debian may not work correctly in ubuntu, because of the dependencies
[06:51] <kalorin> c4ndella
[06:51] <oscar> port scanning is not illegal ... many IRC networks routinely port scan when you connect to one of their servers
[06:51] <zaydana> timfrost - well, its a ubuntu package, its just not available until feisty
[06:51] <qhartman> join #nowhere
[06:52] <zaydana> thats where the wiki pointed me to to get it
[06:52] <nowhere> haha
[06:52] <matt1234> oscar, yea, people can port scan me all day, thats what a firewall is for, but the fact that he's running a dns service too just smells funny
[06:52] <Jj> [17179575.400000]  hdd: ATAPI 48X DVD-ROM DVD-R-RAM CD-R/RW drive, 2048kB Cache, UDMA(33)
[06:52] <The_Ranman> really?
[06:52] <The_Ranman> I went to nowhere
[06:52] <qhartman> Jj, hmm. Sorry, I think this is outside of my realm a bit.
[06:52] <The_Ranman> no one was there
[06:52] <oscar> matt1234 just drop all traffic from that address ... even the B class if it's that suspect
[06:52] <matt1234> marx2k__,  to answer your question, the port scans that got past my router were all above port 32k
[06:53] <Jj> qhartman: well.. ok, thanks anyway
[06:53] <lwizardl> hi
[06:53] <marx2k__> my router blocks all but like 3 ports
[06:53] <jadams> what would I open an access database in inside ubuntu?
[06:53] <matt1234> oscar, or i could send my firewall log in an email that takes 2 seconds to send and move on :)
[06:53] <lwizardl> is there a way to completely install ubuntu from livecd without a monitor maybe like ssh?
[06:53] <oscar> matt1234 again what do you expect your ISP to do?
[06:54] <oscar> matt1234 you are just wasting their time ... I work for an ISP btw, so I may be biased
[06:54] <oscar> :)
[06:54] <matt1234> ah
[06:54] <matt1234> i work for a "very large" federal contractor, high level networking
[06:54] <sbtaco> does anyone know why I would not be able to access certain folders on my external HD through ubuntu?
[06:54] <matt1234> although i handle LAN stuff
[06:54] <oscar> watch your logs long enough, and you'll port scans all the time ... the stuff that's important we'll drop at the border anyway
[06:55] <sbtaco> i think it has to do with permissions
[06:55] <matt1234> so your saying the providers actively look for botnets and whatnot? or do they just try to patch shit after it happens?
[06:55] <crdlb> sbtaco, what filesystem is it using?
[06:56] <sbtaco> crdlb, all the folders on my external drive are copied from an os x partition, which i think is hfs
[06:56] <sbtaco> crdlb, but some of the folders are accessible, while others are not
[06:56] <oscar> matt1234 we do, but most don't. The thing is, if they aren't already doing it, they won't do anything when they get your log
[06:57] <oscar> matt1234 but hell, send it to them anyway :)
[06:57] <vexati0n> sbtaco: just 'gksu nautilus /path/to/mountpoint'
[06:57] <vexati0n> when in doubt, become root and bork something.
[06:57] <matt1234> hmm, i guess i'm spoiled by the level of attention our customer gets to their network
[06:57] <marx2k__> sounds like a porn site :D
[06:57] <matt1234> haha, i wish
[06:58] <wtfgsh> porn site?
[06:58] <wtfgsh> this is linux
[06:58] <wtfgsh> plesase keep on topic
[06:58] <vexati0n> yeah. everybody knows linux nerds have nothing to do with porno.
[06:58] <matt1234> linux /= porn, geez
[06:58] <oscar> no, this is ubuntu
[06:58] <wtfgsh> (18:59:05) (vexati0n): yeah. everybody knows linux nerds have nothing to do with porno
[06:58] <xixor> apt-get -f install pr0n?
[06:58] <wtfgsh> no me either!!
[06:58] <wtfgsh> pr0n is for sinners!
[06:58] <matt1234> so yea, to the point, where the hell does firestarter keep its logs?
[06:58] <sbtaco> vexati0n, thanks, that worked perfectly
[06:58] <FunnyLookinHat> #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:59] <oscar> matt1234 heh, that i don't know ... don't use them fancy GUI thingies
[06:59] <davejustdave> wow can use this from cd love ubuntu
[07:00] <matt1234> yea yea, i get that from the guys at work all the time
[07:00] <cwillu> !irqpoll
[07:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about irqpoll - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:00] <humbraro> matt1234: assuming that firestarter is just a frontend for iptables, like the vast majority of linux firewalls, i'd start by looking in /var/log/messages for dropped packets
[07:00] <oscar> matt1234 you can first check /var/log/messages
[07:01] <oscar> lol, like he said
[07:01] <vexati0n> is there a special version of Ubuntu for midgets?
[07:01] <matt1234> heh, thanks
[07:01] <crdlb> vexati0n, yes kubuntu
[07:02] <davejustdave> need help please!!!???!!   im trying to install windows xp i had ubuntu installed ... i didnt UNinstall ubuntu i just fdisked and repartitioned then installed xp after all dos files were copied and xp needed restart to finish ... reestart still tries to start "grub" then has error 22 and locks up
[07:02] <wtfgsh> (19:02:11) (vexati0n): is there a special version of Ubuntu for midgets?
[07:02] <vexati0n> dave: it's against my religion to help people get windows working
[07:02] <crdlb> davejustdave, you should install XP first
[07:03] <crdlb> then ubuntu
[07:03] <bimberi> !grub | davejustdave
[07:03] <ubotu> davejustdave: 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
[07:03] <wtfgsh> I take offense to midget
[07:03] <kalorin> dave just dave
[07:03] <kalorin> google for mbr windows xp
[07:03] <wtfgsh> im a little person :(
[07:03] <n08dy> a little person?
[07:03] <vexati0n> wtfgsh: sorry. i meant to say lollipop guildlings.
[07:03] <kalorin> heh
[07:03] <wtfgsh> midget is not nice
[07:03] <wtfgsh> :(
[07:03] <davejustdave> i am installing xp before ubuntu i fdisked then installed xp but grub did not erase
[07:04] <kalorin> well, so far today I've really had zero use for my windows vmware slice other than to play around iwth it
[07:04] <spike723> anyone know how to get compiz going?
[07:04] <wtfgsh> you all need to go to chuirch more
[07:04] <kalorin> that'd kind of special
[07:04] <spike723> ie: what do I need in my xorg.conf
[07:04] <crdlb> spike723, depends on the video card
[07:04] <davejustdave> how do i get RID of grub so my c drive will boot xp?
[07:04] <marx2k__> davejustdave, typically XP overwrites its own bootloader on the MBR. Its odd that it didnt for you. You may have to use the 'XP Rescue Disc' in order to do it
[07:04] <vexati0n> wtfgsh: why would you wish that on me? if you think the word 'midget' is offensive, you should see what they say in church.
[07:04] <spike723> crdlb: it's a nvidie gforce 4 I think
[07:05] <kalorin> dave, just boot the xp cd in rescue mode and type fdisk /mbr
[07:05] <kalorin> you'll be fine
[07:05] <lightrush> spike723: it wont work
[07:05] <vexati0n> kalorin: windows xp install cd's don't include fdisk
[07:05] <lightrush> at least not wthout XGL
[07:05] <davejustdave> i cant boot xp disk
[07:05] <matt1234> thanks guys
[07:05] <marx2k__> you can boot the CD
[07:05] <spike723> lightrush: because it's too old?
[07:05] <matt1234> keep your ports locked up at night :)
[07:05] <kalorin> sure it does if you go into the rescue stuff doesn't it?
[07:05] <davejustdave> i can boot floppy or grub
[07:05] <ToddED1> hey guys, is there a way to make the scrolling smooth, i just installed ubuntu...
[07:05] <kalorin> like boot to command line safe mode
[07:05] <vexati0n> kalorin: nope, just format
[07:05] <marx2k__> how were you installing XP?
[07:05] <kalorin> interesting
[07:05] <ToddED1> very choppy
[07:06] <lightrush> spike723: yes - not supported by the new drivers
[07:06] <davejustdave> from dos had to go to i386 then winnt.exe
[07:06] <marx2k__> Whoa
[07:06] <davejustdave> xp will not boot from dos
[07:06] <lightrush> spike723: check out XGL installation - and Beryl is better
[07:06] <marx2k__> what are you putting XP on? a 386-DX40?
[07:06] <wtfgsh> (19:05:31) (vexati0n): wtfgsh: why would you wish that on me? if you think the word 'midget' is offensive, you should see what they say in church.
[07:06] <wtfgsh> what is your problem :(
[07:07] <davejustdave> lol close compaq presario via year 2000
[07:07] <kalorin> my next task is to get it so I can get x apps running remotely on my workstation at work by ssh to server, port forward to my workstation at home, then forward the X stuff back bouncing through my server :)
[07:07] <oscar> davejustdave you can try using a bootloader called GAG
[07:07] <kalorin> (nothing but net)
[07:07] <marx2k__> I think in your case what has to happen is XP needs to MAKE a rescue floppy
[07:07] <marx2k__> which should be an option near the end of the file copy procedure\
[07:07] <oscar> davejustdave download it, put the image onto a floppy, and boot the computer
[07:07] <suprememilo> hey
[07:08] <davejustdave> oscar where can i get gag? just google it?
[07:08] <oscar> davejustdave yeah
[07:08] <kalorin> dave
[07:08] <oscar> gag.sourceforge.net
[07:08] <kalorin> do you have a linux box?
[07:08] <davejustdave> um mmm u think ubuntu running of disk without being install is gonna let me burn floppy?
[07:08] <vexati0n> kalorin: that reminds me. WHY is there no free-nx package for feisty?
[07:08] <oscar> davejustdave yeah
[07:08] <suprememilo> anyone know why I am having issues resizing my NTFS Partition with Gparted on the live cd?
[07:08] <oscar> lol
[07:08] <kalorin> free-nx?
[07:09] <vexati0n> the linux terminal server.
[07:09] <davejustdave> wow i do have to say ubuntu freakin rocks
[07:09] <kalorin> oh no idea
[07:09] <billy> suprememila, maybe your permissions
[07:09] <marx2k__> suprememilo, the edgy liveCD has an old version of gparted
[07:09] <billy> what's a good MP3 player for Edgy?
[07:09] <kalorin> at some point I'm going to free 50gig of vmware image off my drives :)
[07:09] <kalorin> vlc
[07:09] <marx2k__> in order to actually resize your partition (to the left, anyway), you need to either use the GParted LiveCD or upgrade your gparted
[07:09] <humbraro> suprememilo: try booting into windows and emptying the recycler and defragging, then try again
[07:09] <kalorin> it'll do mp3's and video
[07:10] <suprememilo> yea i cant get the regular gparted to load
[07:10] <kalorin> xmms is good too though
[07:10] <marx2k__> I cant figure out how to get VLC to only run one instance of itself
[07:10] <spike723> lightrush: what is xgl installation?  will beryl work with a my card?
[07:10] <marx2k__> suprememilo, you cant get the regular gparted liveCD to load?
[07:10] <suprememilo> yea
[07:10] <marx2k__> or the gparted on the edgy liveCD?
[07:10] <lightrush> spike723: sheck out www.beryl-project.org . and actually their wiki
[07:10] <marx2k__> dude thats weird
[07:10] <suprememilo> gparted, i do my language, then my keyboard
[07:11] <marx2k__> see if you can upgrade the gparted for edgy while youre in the liveCD environment
[07:11] <billy> kalorin, thanks.  XMMS froze when I tried to copy/paste a URL into it though.
[07:11] <suprememilo> then it says something about the gui and doesnt do anything
[07:11] <lightrush> XMMS sux
[07:11] <lightrush> Exaile, Amarok, Audacious
[07:11] <marx2k__> maybe for the GUI you should choose like 16 bit colors
[07:11] <yell0w> @_@ lightrush , i used it everyday
[07:11] <marx2k__> XMMS doesnt suck
[07:11] <marx2k__> whats wrong with XMMS?
[07:11] <marx2k__> Im using beep audio player right now and its fine
[07:11] <lightrush> old code
[07:11] <crdlb> it's unmaitained
[07:11] <lightrush> bogus
[07:12] <lightrush> Audacious is much better substitute
[07:12] <crdlb> and audacious is a perfect clone
[07:12] <kalorin> no idea, but it's getting uninstalled along with gxine
[07:12] <marx2k__> old code? come on dude... youre listening to mp3s... I mean... whats wrong with it?
[07:12] <greig_> hey people, can someone tell me how i can login as root?
[07:12] <kalorin> vlc >>>
[07:12] <crdlb> sudo su
[07:12] <kalorin> sudo su - root
[07:12] <billy> my main need is to be able to copy/paste a url which links to an MP3 file.
[07:12] <marx2k__> so how do you get one and only one copy of vlc running at once?
[07:12] <greig_> thats all i type yea? sorry im new to this
[07:12] <kalorin> eh?
[07:12] <marx2k__> billy: xmms does that, vlc does that, most any player foes that
[07:12] <Steil> my right alt key isn't mapped as alt, is there a way to fix this?
[07:13] <marx2k__> !keymap
[07:13] <billy> marx2k, i thought xmms would, but it froze and killed gde when i tried that.
[07:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about keymap - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:13] <lightrush> uhm
[07:13] <marx2k__> billy: wtf!
[07:13] <lightrush> isnt it a different key
[07:13] <ToddED1> hey guys, im having trouble installing  software.... any suggestions?
[07:13] <lightrush> ?
[07:13] <ToddED1> i know a link will pop up :P
[07:13] <marx2k__> ToddED1, whats the trouble
[07:13] <FirstStrike> ToddED1: Be more specific.
[07:13] <marx2k__> and what software
[07:13] <yell0w> marx2k__, what's wrong with xmms ? no shiny eye candies
[07:14] <dacks> ToddED1, type man apt-get
[07:14] <billy> marx2k__, yeah, exactly.  I copy/pasted the URL, hit enter, nothing.  waited.  tried to kill it, and gde restarted.
[07:14] <lightrush> amaroX
[07:14] <marx2k__> yell0w, I listen to music... I dont LOOK at music :) but xmms has visualizations and crap
[07:14] <ToddED1> well im reading a page that tells me to go into the folder and press ctrl-t, then type in some stuff, but that aint working , so ....
[07:14] <lightrush> but u gotta install half of the KDE libs :)
[07:14] <marx2k__> billy: thats weird
[07:14] <oscar> i'd recommend mpg123 then
[07:14] <suprememilo> anyone know how to view a .asf stream?
[07:14] <oscar> no eye candies at all :)
[07:14] <marx2k__> vlc is fine for most needs
[07:15] <lightrush> but anyway most of us install them becoz of K3b
[07:15] <yell0w> marx2k__,  wait , i haven't finished
[07:15] <ToddED1> its just my first time installing something, its a  3d pong game
[07:15] <billy> marx2k__, that's what I thought.
[07:15] <suprememilo> find a media player for .asf and you get 2 points!
[07:15] <yell0w> argghhh you spoiled my punched line
[07:15] <crdlb> mplayer
[07:15] <marx2k__> !asf
[07:15] <davejustdave> can i tell ubuntu to download directly to a: drive skipping desktop?
[07:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about asf - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:15] <yell0w> ; (
[07:15] <oscar> davejustdave are you getting the GAG zip file?
[07:15] <lightrush> davejustdave: get the dTa extension for the fox
[07:15] <marx2k__> ToddED1,  how are you trying to install it?
[07:15] <crdlb> davejustdave, yes just select the floppy in the save dialog
[07:16] <marx2k__> ToddED1, is it a .deb file? is it source? what is it?
[07:16] <tunganet> hello
[07:16] <tunganet> this is my first time installing linux, any tips?
[07:16] <dacks> Linux_Junkie, allah
[07:16] <lightrush> uhm
[07:16] <oscar> davejustdave the problem is, the GAG zip file will be bigger than the floppy
[07:16] <marx2k__> tunganet, duck and cover
[07:16] <tunganet> why =[
[07:16] <lightrush> rofl
[07:16] <ToddED1> tar.gz
[07:16] <greig_> i cant alter the permision to files, it says im not the owner so cannot changer permisions,
[07:16] <yell0w> tunganet, install /home on seaparate partition
[07:16] <greig_> how do i get around that
[07:16] <oscar> because it contains a floppy image and some other stuff
[07:16] <tunganet> how do i do that?
[07:17] <davejustdave> the save dialog asked if i wanted to open it as one choice or save to desktop as another... no drop down menu on save to ..
[07:17] <marx2k__> greig_, type 'sudo' before your command
[07:17] <davejustdave> grrrr
[07:17] <crdlb> greig_, sudo chown <username> file
[07:17] <tunganet> yellow, can you guide me though?
[07:17] <ToddED1> i unpacked it, then went into the folder , tried ctrl-t, but didnt work, now im lost
[07:17] <billy> would amarok, which is for KDE, work well in GDE?
[07:17] <oscar> davejustdave don't you have any hard disks mounted?
[07:17] <lightrush> tunganet: 1 www.psychocats.net 2 www.ubuntuguide.org 3 www.ubuntuforums.org

[07:17] <marx2k__> ToddED1, :what are the files in the folder?
[07:18] <noodles12> how do i output to a tv? i plug in an s-video card and it's blank. what do i change in the xorg.conf files?
[07:18] <Linux_Junkie> dacks, hola
[07:18] <marx2k__> !tv
[07:18] <yell0w> tunganet, when you're at the partition menu, create a separate partition with ext3 file format, then set mount point as /home
[07:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tv - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[07:18] <lightrush> moo
[07:18] <marx2k__> I totally shouldve created a seperate /home partition when I installed Edgy
[07:19] <lightrush> ,, yes
[07:19] <crdlb> suprememilo, gentoo for me
[07:19] <marx2k__> suprememilo, yep

[07:19] <marx2k__> grr
[07:19] <yell0w> tunganet, that's with another ext partition with mount point as / for the rest of your system of course
[07:19] <noodles12> i just use vmware for my xp when ever i need anything
[07:19] <kalorin> ok does anyone know of an app that'll view adobe digital negative format?

[07:20] <esculapius> i have a great problem
[07:20] <yell0w> tunganet,  watch your private message
[07:20] <marx2k__> most of your questions can be answered with one simple google search
[07:20] <lightrush> tunganet: omg everything is written in the first site about the partitions
[07:20] <suprememilo> do any of you use myth tv?
[07:20] <esculapius> gnome is become extremely slow
[07:20] <tunganet> okok i go read
[07:20] <lightrush> tunganet: read a bit and dont play lazy
[07:20] <noodles12> marx2k_: it looks like that tvout wiki you sent me is for nvideo or ati open source drivers. what about if i have the fglrx drivers form ati's website?
[07:20] <esculapius> after login it takes 5-6 minutes to start
[07:21] <esculapius> anyone has any idea about possible solutions?
[07:21] <kalorin> esculapius - time to reinstall, it's likely all bloated like windows from use:)
[07:21] <lightrush> noodles12: throw the ATI in the Windows' Recycle bin
[07:21] <kalorin> ( I'm kidding )
[07:21] <crdlb> esculapius, have you tried the failsafe gnome session
[07:21] <lightrush> noodles12: and buy NVIDIA
[07:21] <up365> TVTime for me
[07:21] <greig_> im getting the error "i do not have permision to write to this folder" what do i need to do to gain permision?
[07:21] <Supaplex> up365: ?
[07:21] <ToddED1> hey marx, can i mesage you , this screen here is hurting my eyes
[07:21] <noodles12> lightrush: well it's stuck to my laptop >.<
[07:21] <lightrush> noodles12: that is BAD

[07:22] <noodles12> greig: sudo gedit
[07:22] <lightrush> noodles12: :D
[07:22] <noodles12> or what ever
[07:22] <esculapius> crdlb: no, what would be the advantage?

[07:24] <MrPwnage> hmm, ubuntu IRC
[07:24] <ToddED1> lol
[07:24] <marx2k__> Todd just ask what you want in public
[07:24] <ToddED1> can i message you (already did)
[07:24] <ToddED1> oops
[07:25] <MrPwnage> wonder how to see the nick list, bloody xchat-gnome
[07:25] <ToddED1> ok
[07:25] <marx2k__> Im not getting any messages
[07:25] <MrPwnage> anyone enlighten me as to how to do that?
[07:25] <MrPwnage> i'm used to real x-chat
[07:25] <lightrush> oh well no "themes" dir there :(
[07:25] <ToddED1> ok forget  installing programs for a sec, i need to get this scrolling  fixed, its tough to read
[07:25] <rellik> what's the best gui cd writing program?
[07:26] <ToddED1> the scrolling is very slow when the text is moving quick
[07:26] <Frogzoo> rellik: k3b
[07:26] <marx2k__> k3b, for me
[07:26] <ToddED1> anyone know what could be the prob?
[07:26] <marx2k__> ToddED1, bad video driver? :)
[07:26] <greig_> if i want to drag a folder into a sub-folder within ..usr/.. how do i do that? i drag a file over and i get the message i do not have permision, this is beating me:(
[07:26] <billy> how can i reconfigure my sound driver?
[07:26] <crdlb> greig_, do it as root
[07:26] <lightrush> but anyway this is not a pain to die :D
[07:26] <marx2k__> greig_, /usr is owned by root I believe
[07:26] <Frogzoo> greig_: stay out of /usr
[07:27] <MrPwnage> lol, uyeah
[07:27] <ToddED1> its like the gpu is not being used
[07:27] <greig_> ookay, i wont go there
[07:27] <MrPwnage> do not put shit in /usr until you RTFM on linux in general
[07:27] <marx2k__> drwxr-xr-x  13 root root  4096 2007-01-23 09:45 usr
[07:27] <MrPwnage> in /usr your programs reside, as well as most libraries
[07:27] <marx2k__> greig_, what are you trying to do?
[07:27] <ToddED1> i dont know marx2k__ could be, i just installed about an hour ago
[07:27] <MrPwnage> shouldn't ever have to touch it really
[07:27] <marx2k__> ToddED1, are you on a liveCD right now?
[07:27] <MrPwnage> unless installing fonts, but that's another show
[07:27] <greig_> all im trying to do is put a skin on my amsn
[07:27] <MrPwnage> hmm
[07:27] <greig_> says the file has to go into there
[07:28] <up365> !language | MrPwnage
[07:28] <ubotu> MrPwnage: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[07:28] <billy> when I first boot my system, the sound plays fine.  but after I use it once, I can't listen to anything else.  it's as if the driver is still being used by the closed program.
[07:28] <MrPwnage> language?
[07:28] <MrPwnage> oh
[07:28] <MrPwnage> right. lmao
[07:28] <marx2k__> greig_, just in /usr? Its got to be in a subdir in /usr
[07:28] <ToddED1> no im not , i just installed to my HDD
[07:28] <greig_> well. /usr/share/.....
[07:28] <Frogzoo> MrPwnage: s/lmao/lm#o
[07:29] <MrPwnage> Frogzoo ?
[07:29] <marx2k__> greig_, in a console, type 'sudo cp <your filename> <destination>
[07:29] <ToddED1> marx2k__:  the live CD was better
[07:29] <marx2k__> '
[07:29] <marx2k__> ToddED1, thats sad :)
[07:29] <Frogzoo> MrPwnage: nvm
[07:29] <MrPwnage> i see
[07:29] <marx2k__> Im not sure what would cause slow scrolling in XChat... is the rest of the system normal?
[07:29] <up365> billy, do you have onboard sound and a sound card installed?
[07:29] <MrPwnage> ah, the infamous onboard + PCI sound dilemma
[07:30] <marx2k__> I never had a problem with that
[07:30] <billy> up365, thanks for replying.  i'm not sure.  sound plays fine at first, then dies.
[07:30] <marx2k__> but I ended up just using the onboard anyway and removed the addin card
[07:31] <MrPwnage> marx2k__: usually you would disable the onboard via BIOS and then proceed from there
[07:31] <marx2k__> yep
[07:31] <ToddEDM> ok lets try that, i just set the resolution down
[07:31] <marx2k__> but I am fine with the onboard
[07:31] <MrPwnage> 90% of the time the onboard will be far worse
[07:31] <MrPwnage> so, if you ever want to use the addin, it's easy just to disable that
[07:31] <billy> up365, would the lspci tell me that info?
[07:31] <MrPwnage> at least, my particular onboard
[07:31] <marx2k__> heh.. not for me... im either using headphones or a pair of cheap external speakers
[07:32] <up365> billy, check in BIOS to disable onboard sound if you want to use your soundcard
[07:32] <MrPwnage> (ICH5)
[07:32] <MrPwnage> my SB live sounds way better
[07:32] <MrPwnage> the ICH5 sound is always flat even in headphones by comparison
[07:32] <lightrush> Live! here too
[07:32] <MrPwnage> your onoard might be better
[07:32] <MrPwnage> live! is probably all i need
[07:32] <MrPwnage> has 5.1, bass enhancements
[07:32] <lightrush> but controls on Live! are awfully messed
[07:32] <MrPwnage> eh, i'm fine with it
[07:32] <MrPwnage> i've grown to accept it
[07:32] <lightrush> like u gotta spend 10 minutes be4 u earn them
[07:32] <MrPwnage> due to how nice the sound quality is
[07:32] <lightrush> ;)
[07:33] <lightrush> me 2
[07:33] <ToddEDM> hmmmm looks like setting the resolution helped... .a bit
[07:33] <MrPwnage> lightrush: linux creates a need for effort.
[07:33] <ToddEDM> well not really actually
[07:33] <krinns> hi all
[07:33] <lightrush> true
[07:33] <up365> billy, aplay -l in terminal
[07:33] <krinns> i want to updrate my ubuntu
[07:33] <lightrush> but pays back the effort
[07:33] <krinns> what should i do
[07:33] <MrPwnage> i've used every distribution ever
[07:33] <MrPwnage> ?
[07:33] <krinns> i have ubuntu 6.0.1
[07:33] <MrPwnage> slackware was my choice for a long time
[07:33] <crdlb> 6.06?
[07:33] <krinns> any idea how i upgrade it to latest version
[07:34] <MrPwnage> but i have less and less time, so i use ubuntu now
[07:34] <MrPwnage> as slackware needs considerably more maintenance
[07:34] <billy> up365, card 0: Intel [HDA Intel] , device 0: AD198x Analog [AD198x Analog]

[07:34] <MrPwnage> though i will say ubuntu is the very first time i've been told i had to reboot after updates on linux
[07:34] <MrPwnage> :))
[07:34] <lightrush> rofl
[07:34] <MrPwnage> was really surprised to see that
[07:34] <lightrush> well it is not like in Allmighty NON-restart Vista
[07:34] <MrPwnage> lol.
[07:35] <MrPwnage> vista is pure shit.
[07:35] <lightrush> where every driver needs restart -= LMAO
[07:35] <MrPwnage> oops, language.
[07:35] <lightrush> pure
[07:35] <MrPwnage> bot's going to get angry now
[07:35] <nf4> i thought you only had to reboot if the kernel was updated
[07:35] <up365> billy, you may want to follow directions at this link http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449
[07:35] <dacks> hey i actually got the chance to put vista to use today! we ran out of toilet paper
[07:35] <lightrush> I am working @ a hardware store
[07:35] <MrPwnage> nf4: it probably was
[07:35] <MrPwnage> :)
[07:35] <lightrush> and ppl buy it like crazy
[07:35] <billy> up365, thank you for helping me.
[07:35] <MrPwnage> but, i never bothered rebooting till i felt like it on other distributions
[07:35] <lightrush> then come back disappointed
[07:35] <MrPwnage> anyway, it's not the DRM in vista that disappoints me
[07:36] <lightrush> well it is becoz kernel uodates
[07:36] <MrPwnage> i have no issue with that at all
[07:36] <dacks> any gentooligans here
[07:36] <up365> billy, np worked for my SB Live
[07:36] <MrPwnage> it's the fact that it's so bloody slow on even the Athlon 64 3200+ i saw it running on
[07:36] <lightrush> omg
[07:36] <MrPwnage> which is inexcusable
[07:36] <cyphase> hmm, the latest feisty update switched back to an Administration and Preferences menu instead of the Control Panel
[07:36] <crdlb> dacks, if a gentooligan is a gentoo user then yes
[07:36] <lightrush> built comp for my dad
[07:36] <lightrush> 4200+ X2
[07:36] <lightrush> 2GB DDR667
[07:36] <dacks> hehe yes, its what my friends and i call a gentoo enthusiast
[07:36] <lightrush> Vista is slow as shit
[07:36] <MrPwnage> gentoo is nice, but requires even more maintenance than slackware
[07:37] <tunganet> i read about dual botting and i am a little confused
[07:37] <lightrush> even on that
[07:37] <dacks> its so so worth the time and effort
[07:37] <MrPwnage> i will admit the GUI is just gorgeous though
[07:37] <lightrush> lol
[07:37] <dacks> omfg
[07:37] <dacks> beryl owns the vista gui
[07:37] <lightrush> Ubuntu + Beryl = far more better
[07:37] <MrPwnage> i like beryl
[07:37] <crdlb> I like compiz better
[07:37] <crdlb> it's faster
[07:37] <lightrush> flame wars
[07:37] <lightrush> 70FPS here
[07:37] <MrPwnage> lol
[07:37] <lightrush> note 1 down
[07:38] <lightrush> so Beryl is fine
[07:38] <lightrush> :D
[07:38] <MrPwnage> i have this uber lame celeron D
[07:38] <lightrush> omg
[07:38] <MrPwnage> and a 128MB GeForce MX440
[07:38] <lightrush> how do u bare it?
[07:38] <MrPwnage> and beryl runs great @ 1440x900 on my LCD
[07:38] <oljanx> nothings prettier than a nice clean terminal
[07:38] <MrPwnage> :)
[07:38] <crdlb> I have a 32 MB Radeon 7500 Mobility
[07:38] <MrPwnage> so, yeah
[07:38] <Ademan> anyone that uses banshee, have you played s3m files with it?  I tried to open some with it (it was the default program) and it had an error importing them, wheras totem (gag) worked perfectly with it
[07:38] <tunganet> lightrush
[07:38] <MrPwnage> beryl is better than vista
[07:38] <lightrush> how do u run beryl on that card?
[07:38] <MrPwnage> simply because it does more and it does it faster
[07:38] <lightrush> XGL?
[07:38] <cappy> I've been using Ubuntu for a week now without any problems but now I have one - my microphone won't record anymore. If I unmute my mic in Alsa Mixer I can hear myself but no program will pick up my voice. I've tried rebooting and restarting ALSA
[07:38] <suprememilo> how is Beryl on GMA950??
[07:38] <MrPwnage> no, just directly through the nvidia driver
[07:38] <MrPwnage> gentoo has a howto on it
[07:38] <lightrush> hm
[07:38] <dacks> anyone get ppc aiglx+beryl working
[07:38] <MrPwnage> it works for ubuntu too
[07:39] <MrPwnage> :)
[07:39] <tunganet> how do i switch from windows to linux, and have all the windows stuff erased?
[07:39] <dacks> specifically dual g4
[07:39] <MrPwnage> no aiglx or XGL needed on nvidia
[07:39] <lightrush> a fr of mine has GF4 Ti4200
[07:39] <MrPwnage> beryl is good like that
[07:39] <lightrush> and cant
[07:39] <MrPwnage> odd
[07:39] <MrPwnage> works great for me
[07:39] <pppoe_dude> cappy: did you check that the capture device is set to 'mic'?
[07:39] <scott__> just delete all the partitions, tunganet
[07:39] <posingaspopular> tunganet: just delete the windows partition
[07:39] <MrPwnage> and my resolution is very high too :)
[07:39] <MrPwnage> as i said, 1440x900
[07:39] <lightrush> u wanna hear something funny
[07:39] <suprememilo> tunganet: deleting your partitions delets your data too
[07:39] <MrPwnage> that's nothing to sneeze at from such a ghetto machine as this.
[07:39] <lightrush> on windows
[07:39] <scott__> and allocate all the room for Ubuntu
[07:39] <up365> tunganet, install ubuntu over and format HDD
[07:39] <dacks> i run 2880x1800
[07:39] <lightrush> when I clocked my machine
[07:39] <MrPwnage> i attribute it to my early adoption of SATA
[07:39] <nf4> so for beryl +nvidia  you dont need xgl or aiglx?
[07:39] <MrPwnage> :)
[07:40] <MrPwnage> SATA speeded up my system more than anything i've ever done
[07:40] <lightrush> I ran 1M SuperPI for 34 secs
[07:40] <posingaspopular> nf4: no
[07:40] <lightrush> now
[07:40] <suprememilo> hey why doenst ubuntu have a NTFS reader built in?
[07:40] <MrPwnage> faster HD = faster everything
[07:40] <crdlb> nf4, as long as you have the 9xxx driver
[07:40] <lightrush> in linux
[07:40] <lightrush> via Wine
[07:40] <cappy> pppoe_dude: my capture device is set to ALSA, that has always worked before
[07:40] <kalorin> so is beryl stable?
[07:40] <lightrush> same test goes for 33 secs
[07:40] <posingaspopular> ALSA rocks
[07:40] <lightrush> VIA WINE
[07:40] <pppoe_dude> cappy: can you paste "amixer" output in a pastebin?
[07:40] <MrPwnage> suprememilo: because NTFS on linux is broken
[07:40] <nf4> mine says 1.0-9746
[07:40] <nf4> for the diver is that good?
[07:40] <MrPwnage> doesnt' work well at all
[07:41] <MrPwnage> nf4: google it, you'll find gentoo's howto
[07:41] <MrPwnage> it works fine on ubuntu
[07:41] <MrPwnage> provided you knwo the differences well enough
[07:41] <lightrush> MrPwnage: what is yor version of Beryl?
[07:41] <MrPwnage> if not, that is not hte scope of my explanation
[07:41] <suprememilo> that makes it hard for me to switch, cause all my stuff is in NTFS, and i dont want to delete the partition >.<
[07:41] <crdlb> ntfs-3g is stable now
[07:41] <lightrush> 0.1.9999x ?
[07:41] <VonFluffy> hi is it possible to install iceweasel in ubuntu instead of firefox?
[07:41] <crdlb> VonFluffy, why?
[07:41] <MrPwnage> lightrush: none right now, i like my stuff to be speedier :P beryl is a TOY, not something i want to use all the time
[07:42] <MrPwnage> i use it because i like looking at the wobbly windows.
[07:42] <MrPwnage> :)
[07:42] <MrPwnage> not because i want performance
[07:42] <MrPwnage> because it certainly doesn't give me that
[07:42] <lightrush> hahah of coz
[07:42] <pppoe_dude> suprememilo: you can read ntfs on ubuntu
[07:42] <pppoe_dude> suprememilo: you just can't write to it
[07:42] <crdlb> MrPwnage, I use compiz w/ wobbly turned off and it makes my computer feel faster
[07:42] <pppoe_dude> (by default)
[07:42] <VonFluffy> crdlb: cos i like its sexy icon instead of that blue globe http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/b/b5/Iceweasel_icon.png
[07:42] <MrPwnage> VonFluffy: iceweasel is a rebranded firefox
[07:42] <MrPwnage> VonFluffy: and it actually supports less
[07:42] <suprememilo> where do i see my drive, it doesn't show up on the desktop?
[07:42] <MrPwnage> don't bother with it, unless you're a GNU zealot
[07:42] <crdlb> VonFluffy, just change the icon
[07:43] <MrPwnage> in which case, my time is wasted even explaining this
[07:43] <MrPwnage> :P
[07:43] <crdlb> shouldn't that be GNU/zealot
[07:43] <VonFluffy> how does it support less by the way
[07:43] <MrPwnage> crdlb: if you're a GNU zealot then yes
[07:43] <pppoe_dude> suprememilo: if you want a GUI way of doing this, one way would be to use gparted to see which one it is, then right click and select 'mount'
[07:43] <lightrush> ahh
[07:43] <lightrush> gn all
[07:44] <suprememilo> ah thanks pp
[07:44] <lightrush> too late here
[07:44] <lightrush> ;D
[07:44] <VonFluffy> lol @ IceApe thats what they calling seamonkey
[07:45] <pppoe_dude> suprememilo: there are programs that allow you to do this graphically too, in a more general way
[07:45] <suprememilo> hmm i should just go buy another HDD and copy my data over
[07:45] <barf> "libgl1-mesa-dev: Depends: libgl1-mesa (= 6.4.1-0ubuntu8) but 6.5.1+cvs20060824 is to be installed" <-- how can I downgrade libgl1-mesa to 6.4.1 ??
[07:45] <pppoe_dude> suprememilo: also, if you wanna do it from command line, just do 'mount -t ntfs /dev/hdx /media/mountpoint'
[07:46] <pppoe_dude> suprememilo: where hdx is something like hda3 or somethn (which ever one is the windows one) and mountpoint is an existing empty directory to which hdx will be mounted
[07:46] <suprememilo> hmm might it be sata1?
[07:46] <pppoe_dude> suprememilo: yes it could be
[07:46] <unop> sata drives usually show up as /dev/sd?
[07:46] <pppoe_dude> i think they're usually labelled /dev/sdx
[07:47] <solid_liq> anyone know how to fix this?
[07:47] <solid_liq> dpkg: failed to open package info file `/var/lib/dpkg/available' for reading: No such file or directory
[07:47] <solid_liq> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)
[07:47] <pppoe_dude> suprememilo: and you will need to find which partition its on... check out "fdisk -l"
[07:47] <MrPwnage> yeah
[07:47] <valehru> Hey guys, Im beginning work on a small software project.  We want to host a project management system locally on our apache server.  Does anyone know any project management systems that are free where I could say add use cases, track bugs, assign tasks for a small project?
[07:47] <MrPwnage> sdx or possibly hdx
[07:47] <MrPwnage> depending on how you configure your mobo
[07:47] <crdlb> trac
[07:48] <networkparadox> /msg solid_liq dpkg --clear-avail
[07:48] <networkparadox> apt-get update
[07:48] <solid_liq> networkparadox: cool, thanks!
[07:50] <cappy> pppoe_dude: Here is my amixer output, thanks for helping =) http://pastebin.com/889782
[07:50] <MrPwnage> trac is awesome
[07:50] <MrPwnage> if i ever program anything, i'll be using that
[07:50] <spike723> can someone help me get beryl up and running?
[07:50] <MrPwnage> spike723: what is your specific situation?
[07:50] <MrPwnage> i.e. what is your hardware, what method are you trying to use
[07:51] <cafuego_> spike723: the best I can do is advise you to not bother
[07:51] <c0drm0nk33> Has anyone else here setup compiz in gnome using the official packages, I've lost my window decorations but the effects are working. how do I get window decorations too
[07:51] <crdlb> gtk-window-decorator
[07:51] <pppoe_dude> cappy: 1 sec its takig a while to load
[07:51] <crdlb> make sure the decoration plugin is loaded to
[07:51] <pppoe_dude> c0drm0nk33: ya i think that compiz is b0rked in edgy,
[07:52] <cappy> pppoe_dude: yeah, it took a while to upload it too
[07:52] <billy> oljanx, i agree.  dark green font with black background.
[07:52] <pppoe_dude> c0drm0nk33: there is a different repo that provides a more recent version (the one in feisty but for edgy)
[07:53] <spike723> I'm running feisty
[07:53] <pppoe_dude> cappy: wanna upload it to pastebin.ca? its not loading
[07:53] <spike723> cafuego_: why not bother with beryl?
[07:53] <spike723> I have a gforce 4
[07:53] <MrPwnage> beryl takes up system resources
[07:53] <pppoe_dude> cappy: nm it loaded
[07:53] <MrPwnage> so, it's not really necessary
[07:53] <pppoe_dude> :)
[07:53] <MrPwnage> it's just fun to play with :P
[07:53] <MrPwnage> beryl won't be a "normal" part of the linux desktop for years to come
[07:53] <spike723> when I load up synaptic
[07:54] <spike723> I only beryl-manager listed
[07:54] <spike723> what other package do I need?
[07:54] <weijie902> i guys... is gnome.org down?
[07:54] <pppoe_dude> cappy: apparently there is a mic selector switch
[07:54] <quanchi> Hello
[07:54] <crdlb> weijie902, wfm
[07:54] <pppoe_dude> cappy: are you sure it is selected on the right one? if you can't see it in gnome-volume-control, then add it from the preferences window
[07:55] <h3h_timo> hi, can anyone explain to me how to install and use the 686 kernel in edgy???
[07:55] <cappy> pppoe_dude: I tried changing that before I asked for help, it didn't make any difference
[07:55] <cafuego_> spike723: buggy, slow
[07:56] <pavs> where can i find superkaramba for ubuntu/
[07:56] <cappy> pppoe_dude: I re-enabled it and neither one is letting me record
[07:56] <unop> !info linux-image-686
[07:56] <pppoe_dude> cappy: there is also a 'capture' channel that seems to be turned off
[07:56] <ubotu> linux-image-686: Obsoleted by: linux-image-generic. In component main, is optional. Version 2.6.17.11 (edgy), package size 23 kB, installed size 52 kB
[07:56] <quanchi> Hey, Im like, extreemly new to linux... Does any one wanna be like my linux friend? lol.. and help my noob ass out with stuff?!
[07:56] <quanchi> please..
[07:56] <quanchi> forums arent too reliable
[07:56] <pppoe_dude> cappy: and at colume 7% only
[07:56] <MrPwnage> your linux friend?
[07:56] <MrPwnage> ROFL

[07:56] <h3h_timo> unop, ive tried installing it, it just doesnt show up as a choice in grub whenever i reboot
[07:56] <quanchi> Well what am I supposted to say
[07:56] <MrPwnage> quanchi: google is your linux friend
[07:56] <pppoe_dude> quanchi: ask your question and we'll try to help
[07:56] <quanchi> lol
[07:56] <quanchi> well
[07:56] <spike723> cafuego_: do you know how to get compiz running?
[07:57] <quanchi> I post my questions on the ubuntu forums but no one replies
[07:57] <MrPwnage> hmm
[07:57] <h3h_timo> unop, if i use the default kernel, does that work as 686???
[07:57] <pavs> quanchi ask here
[07:57] <quanchi> Ok
[07:57] <cappy> pppoe_dude: hm .. I don't see it in Volume Control
[07:57] <quanchi> ill link you to the thread i created
[07:57] <unop> h3h_timo,  both linux-image-686 and linux-image-generic seem to be metapackages that choose the most appropriate kernel for you (and that might not even be a 686 kernel)
[07:57] <quanchi> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=371507
[07:57] <pppoe_dude> cappy: did you check all the boxes in the edit->preferences dialog?
[07:58] <h3h_timo> unop, im running a intel core duo processor, which kernel do you think is right for me?
[07:58] <unop> afaik, there is no kernel for the 686 in ubuntu's repositories
[07:58] <WorkerII> How do I recognize which version of Ubuntu I am running?
[07:58] <crdlb> quanchi, you need to chmod +x it
[07:58] <unop> h3h_timo,  well, a custom one obviously :)
[07:58] <quanchi> so how do I do that, I just started using linux today.. so bare with me if I get confused
[07:59] <h3h_timo> unop, what do you suggest that i do?
[07:59] <cafuego_> h3h_timo: the -generic one.
[07:59] <cafuego_> h3h_timo: it runs fine and autodetects SMP mode
[07:59] <kalori1> sure sure
[07:59] <pppoe_dude> quanchi: what are you TRYING to do?
[07:59] <h3h_timo> cafuego, is there anything else i should do?
[07:59] <unop> !info linux-generic
[07:59] <ubotu> linux-generic: Complete Generic Linux kernel. In component restricted, is optional. Version 2.6.17.11 (edgy), package size 23 kB, installed size 52 kB

[07:59] <crdlb> quanchi, run 'chmod +x /home/quanchi/Desktop/ut2k41/linux-installer.sh'
[08:00] <bluesign> hi, do you know any apt source to install gcc 4.2 on edgy?
[08:00] <pppoe_dude> WorkerII: check your sources.list file
[08:00] <wildrobo> Hello
[08:00] <pppoe_dude> quanchi: what are you TRYING to do?
[08:00] <quanchi> Ooops sorry, im back
[08:00] <crdlb> quanchi, run 'chmod +x /home/quanchi/Desktop/ut2k41/linux-installer.sh'
[08:00] <wildrobo> anyone familiar with getting php to run?
[08:00] <quanchi> Im trying to install Unreal Tournament 2004
[08:00] <cappy> pppoe_dude: Hey that 7% control fixed it! It was just named "Capture"! Thanks a lot!
[08:00] <h3h_timo> cafuego, thanks alot
[08:00] <pppoe_dude> cappy: no problem :)
[08:01] <cafuego_> h3h_timo: model name      : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU          6300  @ 1.86GHz  <-- it worketh just fine.
[08:01] <unop> bluesign, 4.2 doesnt seem to exist in the repositories
[08:01] <quanchi> crdlb, ok Ill try that
[08:01] <bluesign> unop: thanks
[08:01] <pppoe_dude> quanchi: if its the install script that came with it it should already be +x
[08:02] <quanchi> Hmm
[08:02] <quanchi> I typed what it said
[08:02] <pinchmesh> .
[08:02] <quanchi> I typed what  crdlb said to type
[08:02] <quanchi> and nothing happend
[08:02] <pppoe_dude> quanchi:  that script might be needed to be run as root, but i really don't know what it does
[08:02] <cappy> pppoe_dude: really, thanks a ton =)
[08:02] <crdlb> quanchi, did you try to run the script again after?
[08:03] <wildrobo> I have apache up and running I thought I set up PHP but when I try to view the php file,  it asks me if I want to download it.  Any ideas?
[08:03] <quanchi> What do you mean, try to run it twice?
[08:03] <pppoe_dude> quanchi: do a "ls -ll *sh"
[08:03] <pppoe_dude> and if you get one line, paste it here quanchi
[08:03] <kalorin> wildrobo, um.. mime type?
[08:03] <artpoetryfiction> <- Newbie tryint to move from Windows to Ubuntu
[08:03] <quanchi> quanchi@quanchi-desktop:~$ ls -ll *sh
[08:03] <quanchi> ls: *sh: No such file or directory
[08:04] <pppoe_dude> quanchi: cd Desktop/ut2k...
[08:04] <crdlb> try *.sh
[08:04] <artpoetryfiction> How do I stop an application that is running and has timed out/crashed?
[08:04] <MrPwnage> good, the best thing to do is just use it
[08:04] <quanchi> Im guessing thats not how you wanted me to do it huh
[08:04] <wildrobo> Kalrorin, yeah I went into the httpd.conf file and did the AddType and restarted
[08:04] <wildrobo> no luck
[08:04] <MrPwnage> artpoetryfiction: just open up a terminal and type "pkill (program name)"
[08:04] <MrPwnage> without the quotes.
[08:04] <crdlb> actually you just need to cd into the directory
[08:04] <MrPwnage> and obviously (program name) is the name of the program
[08:04] <crdlb> cd Desktop/ut2k41/
[08:04] <artpoetryfiction> Nice idea, how do I know what the program's name is?
[08:04] <MrPwnage> what program is it?
[08:05] <quanchi> pppoe_dude, can you just private message me? there is to much going on here
[08:05] <artpoetryfiction> It's the Add/Remove program that comes by default with Ubuntu
[08:05] <MrPwnage> the add/remove program.
[08:05] <MrPwnage> lmfao
[08:05] <pppoe_dude> quanchi: join #ubuntu-classroom
[08:05] <MrPwnage> you're still in windows mode
[08:05] <MrPwnage> pkill synaptic :P
[08:05] <MrPwnage> in a terminal
[08:05] <cappy> quanchi: you can just run it from the CD as long as you don't cd into the CD's directory
[08:07] <artpoetryfiction> I tried to load a VN keyboard driver, so when I open a terminal window I get a bunch of errors about preloading and cannot be preloaded
[08:07] <artpoetryfiction> so pkill didn't work
[08:07] <frootypez> someone told me to install a program as suid=0
[08:07] <frootypez> how can i do that?
[08:08] <marx2k__> uh
[08:08] <marx2k__> heh heh
[08:08] <marx2k__> !suid
[08:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about suid - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:08] <frootypez> ...
[08:09] <billy> !hi
[08:09] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[08:10] <artpoetryfiction> What is the difference between Ubuntu, Xubuntu and Kubuntu?
[08:10] <networkparadox> Window managers
[08:10] <mneptok> frootypez: man sudo
[08:10] <crdlb> desktop enviroments would be more accurate
[08:10] <artpoetryfiction> So I have to load all of them to get the relative features of each?
[08:10] <crdlb> just install ubuntu then install the destkops
[08:10] <networkparadox> good call, also resource reqiurements
[08:11] <mneptok> artpoetryfiction: tno. you can run apps for other DEs as long as you have the client libs.
[08:11] <networkparadox> That's the beauty of live CDs you can try all of them before installing
[08:11] <mneptok> s/tno/no/
[08:11] <JamesBeen> hello yall
[08:11] <rredd4> how do i extract and run     UT2004-LNX-Demo3334.run.gz
[08:11] <artpoetryfiction> ok, then for example how do I install xlib?
[08:12] <rellik> I think I lost my DVD-R drive
[08:12] <crdlb> artpoetryfiction, xlib is part of the core installation
[08:12] <mneptok> rredd4: gunzip UTblahblah && sudo ./UTblahblah.run
[08:12] <artpoetryfiction> then why can't I find it on my system?
[08:12] <artpoetryfiction> Where is it located?
[08:12] <rredd4> mneptok  ty!
[08:12] <cappy> rredd4: http://titaniclinux.net/cms/FC?cmsPage=true&link=251
[08:13] <mneptok> artpoetryfiction: what are you trying to do?
[08:13] <Roscar> I need help installing a printer driver. I got the .deb from the manufacture,. clicking on it and installing fails. The terminal says output is pasted http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7765/
[08:13] <rredd4> cappy  ty, instructions ... cool!
[08:13] <artpoetryfiction> I need to install a Vietnamese keyboard driver... I've only been able to find one, if there is a better/standard source for alternative keyboard drivers I would love a reference
[08:13] <mneptok> Roscar: dpkg -i nameof.deb
[08:14] <JamesBeen> anyone know a good news aggregator
[08:14] <crdlb> JamesBeen, liferea, penguintv
[08:14] <JamesBeen> hey thanks
[08:14] <Roscar> mneptox: it's the same
[08:14] <mneptok> artpoetryfiction: System->Admin->Language Support
[08:14] <Roscar> mneptok: it's the same
[08:15] <ius> hi guys
[08:15] <JamesBeen> holler
[08:15] <mneptok> Roscar: you type that in a terminal
[08:15] <ius> what player to use for mp4 video files ?
[08:15] <artpoetryfiction> What is that going to do for me?
[08:15] <mneptok> Roscar: and you need to be in the same dir as the .deb file
[08:15] <artpoetryfiction> I don't want to change my system language I want to change the configuration of my keyboard
[08:16] <mneptok> artpoetryfiction: allow you to install new latguage and keymap support
[08:16] <Roscar> mneptok: yep, I am.
[08:16] <artpoetryfiction> Then how do I switch back and forth, I have to the system settings again and again?
[08:17] <artpoetryfiction> Alse there is more than one way to type in Vietnamese... but only one keyboard setting for Vietnamese
[08:17] <mneptok> artpoetryfiction: yes. i don't know of any OS that reads your mind and changes your layout with no user involvement ;)
[08:17] <JamesBeen> beryl keeps crashing when i maximize stuff. anyone else run into this
[08:17] <mneptok> JamesBeen: got Java installed?
[08:17] <ius> hi guys need help here with my dapper ... what player to use for mp4 video files ?
[08:17] <JamesBeen> yeah
[08:18] <artpoetryfiction> On Windows I have a hot key, or an icon in my tool bar I can click. I don't have to resetting my settings, I just switch the keyboard driver only
[08:18] <mneptok> JamesBeen: http://www.rssowl.org/
[08:18] <mneptok> artpoetryfiction: you can add a deskbar icon
[08:18] <mneptok> (in GNOME)
[08:19] <marx2k__> artpoetryfiction,  system -> administration -> language support
[08:19] <rredd4> cappy  got this  gunzip: UT2004-LNX-Demo3334.run.gz: unexpected end of file
[08:19] <mneptok> artpoetryfiction: have you bothered to actually look in System->Prefs->Keyboard?
[08:19] <cappy> rredd4: are you sure you completed the download?
[08:19] <marx2k__> rredd4, damaged file
[08:20] <artpoetryfiction> Yes,
[08:20] <JamesBeen> ius: VLC or Mplayer will do it
[08:20] <rredd4> yes
[08:20] <rredd4> ok
[08:20] <artpoetryfiction> Right now the control panel won't even open. Gnome sucks
[08:20] <rredd4> no sudo needed?
[08:20] <marx2k__> hahaha
[08:20] <marx2k__> artpoetryfiction, u funny
[08:20] <Steil> my right alt key isn't mapped as alt, is there a way to fix this?
[08:20] <ius> vlc and mplayer can't do it .. i already tried man
[08:20] <artpoetryfiction> I'm with Linus on that one
[08:20] <marx2k__> steil: google linux key mapping
[08:20] <ius> maybe .. i need more plugins ?
[08:21] <MatrixMon> Can I create and modify my own commands?
[08:21] <cappy> rredd4: no you don't need sudo for it as long as it is in your home directory or Desktop
[08:21] <JamesBeen> you have the codecs from mplayers site installed?
[08:21] <artpoetryfiction> Didn't like Gnome 6 years ago, and I still don't
[08:21] <crdlb> artpoetryfiction, glad to hear that
[08:21] <ius> i'll check 4 that
[08:21] <cappy> rredd4: Try downloading the demo from someplace else because the package you have is corrupt
[08:21] <rredd4> cappy ok i guess i will redownload it.  got it from the ut website.. ok, i will
[08:21] <crdlb> ius, look in /usr/lib/win32
[08:21] <ius> so basically those players can play it ?
[08:22] <MatrixMon> Does anyone know where nautilus is located?
[08:22] <crdlb> it should have a bunch of dlls
[08:22] <JamesBeen> ya, just need the codecs
[08:22] <marx2k__> right click on your panel, select Add To Panel and select the proper item you need, artpoetryfiction
[08:22] <pppoe_dude> MatrixMon: why?
[08:22] <MrPwnage> gnome doesn't suck in itself
[08:22] <marx2k__> its under the utilities section in that menu
[08:22] <MrPwnage> but many of its auxiliary programs do
[08:22] <crdlb> MatrixMon, /usr/bin/nautilus ?
[08:22] <pppoe_dude> MatrixMon: the binary would probably be in /usr/bin
[08:22] <MrPwnage> therefore leading many people to believe the gnome desktop itself sucks
[08:22] <MatrixMon> I want to learn more about nautilus..
[08:23] <artpoetryfiction> Nope, got to reboot, Synaptics keeps crashing and blocking all my system settings from coming up
[08:23] <crdlb> MatrixMon, do you mean the nautilus website?
[08:23] <ius> already check the /usr/lib/win32 location .. they are all there :-)
[08:23] <JamesBeen> oo, penguintv looks nice
[08:23] <artpoetryfiction> Can't pkill because everytime I launch a terminal there's a bunch of gobbledy gook that blocks me from running pkill
[08:23] <JamesBeen> which player are you using
[08:23] <crdlb> JamesBeen, make sure you get 2.85, the earlier versions are really crashy
[08:23] <ius> vlc and totem
[08:24] <ius> sometimes mplayer
[08:24] <artpoetryfiction> Vlc is what keeps crashing Synaptics for me
[08:24] <billy> Hey y'all.
[08:24] <JamesBeen> try it in Mplayer, and go into pref -> video -> x11
[08:25] <MatrixMon> What is the nautilus website?
[08:25] <skirk> Hi, anyone know if exist driver of my webcam: Trust @ spacecam 100 portable . Thank...
[08:25] <billy> is 100 degree F about normal for CPU and MB temp?
[08:25] <crdlb> MatrixMon, http://www.gnome.org/projects/nautilus/
[08:25] <cafuego_> What is that in normal units?
[08:25] <crdlb> MatrixMon, not much to it though
[08:25] <billy> 100 F = 35 C (about, i think)
[08:26] <ius> james, thanks .. i'll try it
[08:26] <artpoetryfiction> Ok, reboot. System - Administration - Language Support and no window opens
[08:26] <cafuego_> Oh hold on, 42C
[08:26] <billy> somtin like that.  well, is that about right?
[08:26] <marx2k__> 98.6F = 37C
[08:26] <n08dy> a 90nm cpu at 42C?
[08:26] <unop> 5/9*(100-32) = 37.7777777777778
[08:26] <cafuego_> billy: If it's working, fine. If idle, perhaps on the high side. But it also depends on ambient temperature and the cpu type.
[08:27] <billy> cafuego, it's working like a sled dog.  :)
[08:27] <cafuego_> billy: then i wouldn't worry about it
[08:27] <billy> cafuego: what i figured.  thanks for the reply.
[08:27] <marx2k__> thats the worst similie ive ever heard
[08:27] <pavs> where can i find superkaramba for ubuntu
[08:28] <crazyl1nk> is it possible to run Flash, not the player but the Flash Program on Ubuntu?
[08:28] <marx2k__> superkaramba is KDE
[08:28] <marx2k__> use synaptic
[08:28] <pavs> is there something like superkaramba for gnome?
[08:28] <marx2k__> pavs: gdesklets
[08:29] <pavs> I have gdesklets. thanks. I thought superkaramba was differant/better.
[08:29] <marx2k__> it provides similar functionality
[08:29] <xerophyte_>  could somebody tell me why this server has load above 3+ ? stats can be found at http://www.pastebin.ca/374092 please
[08:29] <marx2k__> xerophyte_,  run top and find out
[08:30] <xerophyte_> marx2k__, i have top out there
[08:30] <crazyl1nk> is it possible to run Flash, not the player but the Flash Program on Ubuntu?
[08:30] <marx2k__> its mysql daemon
[08:30] <crdlb> crazyl1nk, natively no
[08:30] <marx2k__> eating up 72% of your cpu
[08:31] <crazyl1nk> Damn.
[08:31] <agabus> on my Ubuntu Edgy 32bit, I've chosen to share a folder on my SMB network. however, when i try and get into it from another computer on my network running windows, it asks for a password and username, i type them in, but it doesn't allow me access. why is this?
[08:31] <crdlb> crazyl1nk, maybe with wine though
[08:31] <billy> anyone use 3ddesktop?
[08:31] <maugli> yes, me
[08:31] <crdlb> billy, as in beryl/compiz?
[08:31] <WorkerII> pppoe_dude: Thanks.
[08:31] <marx2k__> !samba
[08:31] <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
[08:31] <billy> crdlb, no.  there's a package in synaptic called 3ddesktop.
[08:32] <WorkerII> pppoe_dude: I assume edgy == 6.10 ?
[08:32] <billy> crdlb, i can't use beryl.  it don't work for me.
[08:32] <davejustdave> k
[08:32] <marx2k__> WorkerII, yes
[08:32] <maugli> ohhh ..  i use beryl, and its really nice :)
[08:32] <WorkerII> billy: 3ddesktop is merely a 3d-way to change desktop.  Its included in Beryl.
[08:33] <WorkerII> maugli: Did you try looking glass?
[08:33] <maugli> is looking glas inside of beryl or emerald ?
[08:33] <billy> WorkerII, that's cool.  I'm more interested to know if the 3ddesktop package in synaptic works without beryl or anything else.  I can't use beryl or compiz.  I've installed beryl before but it doesn't do anything.
[08:33] <WorkerII> maugli: No, its a separate project, started by Sun Microsystems in 2003 or 2004.
[08:34] <WorkerII> maugli: If its freed and all, it
[08:34] <WorkerII> maugli: will be real cool.
[08:34] <mneptok> maugli: PLG has no commonality with any X compositors
[08:34] <WorkerII> !test
[08:34] <ubotu> Failed.
[08:34] <maugli> no, i did not yet. i started with compiz, and now beryl
[08:34] <WorkerII> !looking glass
[08:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about looking glass - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:34] <WorkerII> !plg
[08:34] <ubotu> Project Looking Glass is an environment with 3D windowing and visualization capabilities. Web site: https://lg3d-core.dev.java.net/ - Demo: http://wwws.sun.com/software/looking_glass/demo.html - Live CD: https://lg3d-livecd.dev.java.net/ - Binary Builds: https://lg3d-core.dev.java.net/binary-builds.html
[08:34] <mneptok> WorkerII: "if it's freed?"
[08:35] <maugli> but im really happy with beryl, it runs perfect. perhaps i try looking glass with my second pc - its for experiments :)
[08:35] <WorkerII> mneptok: Its using some strange sun-licence right now, IIRC.
[08:35] <WorkerII> maugli: I use beryl too.
[08:35] <billy> ah, looks like 3ddesktop *does* work.
[08:35] <WorkerII> maugli: I just have looking glass as an option with GDM.
[08:35] <mneptok> WorkerII: GPL - https://lg3d-core.dev.java.net/
[08:35] <marx2k__> So looking glass is an OS unto itself, right?
[08:35] <WorkerII> mneptok: OK .. thats new to me.  Quite cool!
[08:36] <WorkerII> marx2k__: Not really .. but its both a desktop manager and a windowmanager, I guess.
[08:36] <mneptok> marx2k__: no. a windowing system (it replaces X)
[08:36] <deanl> i need some help with multimedia keys
[08:36] <marx2k__> oh I see
[08:36] <WorkerII> oh
[08:36] <pavs> how do i remove kde from console?
[08:36] <WorkerII> mneptok: I don't think it replaces X ... are you sure of that?
[08:36] <mneptok> WorkerII: AFAIK, yes
[08:36] <WorkerII> mneptok: I know it replaces GNOME ...
[08:37] <marx2k__> I remember not being very impressed with looking glass
[08:37] <dominicano> Do you know "typing break" app, from gnome? how can i change the message "take a break" ?
[08:37] <WorkerII> mneptok: But you're able to run native X11 applications ...
[08:37] <maugli> deanl: try amarok as audio player, you can easily adjust every button wiht a gdi
[08:37] <maugli> -d
[08:37] <Agrajag> it doesn't replace X, but it does have its own fork of xorg apparently
[08:37] <WorkerII> marx2k__: How come?  The video with Jonathan rocked.
[08:37] <Agrajag> https://lg3d-x11.dev.java.net/
[08:37] <mneptok> WorkerII: it may well be able to support X libs.
[08:37] <deanl> maugli: i tried amarok but this is a global thing
[08:37] <marx2k__> maybe i need to look at it again
[08:37] <marx2k__> Im just not impressed with eyecandy
[08:37] <WorkerII> mneptok: AHh .. its a fork :)
[08:38] <JamesBeen> you guys have any problems with beryl crashing when you maximize windows?
[08:38] <WorkerII> marx2k__: Its not about eyecandy .. use beryl for that.
[08:38] <WorkerII> marx2k__: Its about a real 3d desktop.
[08:38] <maugli> mhhh i see, i tried to adjust my logitech multimedia buttons global with a tutorial, but it did not work with xmms
[08:38] <pavs> how do i remove kde from console?
[08:38] <theshibboleth> I'm trying to set up a mail server using courier and I would like to know how I reconfigure it.
[08:39] <theshibboleth> (I cancelled during the initial configuration)
[08:39] <maugli> deanl: so i tried today amarok, and i think ist very nice, im still amazed :)
[08:39] <deanl> maugli: my volume and mute buttons effect a different set of controls than my actual sound card
[08:39] <JamesBeen> amarok didn't like the structure of my ex-itunes library
[08:40] <WorkerII> marx2k__: Beryl is merely eyecandy .. your desktop is still 2d, no matter how it looks. :)
[08:40] <deanl> i liked foobar2000 more than itunes and amarok
[08:40] <l_r> hello
[08:40] <marx2k__> im more impressed with actual innovation in functionality
[08:40] <l_r> i do not remember the version nor the name of my ubuntu system. is there any way to know both?
[08:41] <maugli> deanl: i know a tutorial, perhaps you can try it, but ist german
[08:41] <WorkerII> marx2k__: Thats what looking glass is ment to give you .. however it has a long way to go.  The visions and much functionality was already there in 2004 though.
[08:41] <theshibboleth> Anyone have any ideas about reconfiguring courier??
[08:41] <deanl> maugli: what is the general idea?
[08:41] <pavs> how do i remove kubuntu from console?
[08:42] <marx2k__> I wish I kept the URL of this one video I saw of this amazingly intuitive desktop that was based on files scattered on a table
[08:42] <maugli> deanl: editing some configuration files, like always =) just give me a second
[08:42] <fuzzywuzzy> Anyone got a link to a working copy of the win32codecs for AMD64?
[08:42] <marx2k__> you used a wacom tablet to basically play with your files but the desktop is you playing with these chips on a table
[08:42] <fuzzywuzzy> I tried using alien, but it's complaining about the arch mismatch
[08:42] <MatrixMon> How can I view shared folders online?
[08:42] <marx2k__> shared on your lan?
[08:43] <MrPwnage> fuzzywuzzy: get 32-bit linux, then it'll work :P
[08:43] <MatrixMon> I have a wan
[08:43] <MatrixMon> Can I share them over www
[08:43] <MatrixMon> ?
[08:43] <MrPwnage> fuzzywuzzy: my CPU can do 64-bit, i still use 32-bit
[08:43] <mneptok> l_r: uname -a
[08:43] <MrPwnage> 64-bit is not "ready for primetime" as they say
[08:43] <MrPwnage> it's too little supported for most people's normal usage
[08:43] <mau> heya peeps.  I know how to network to my macbook in ubuntu, but how do I network to my ubuntu box in os x?  I did "share folder" using SMB, and it appears that i'm reaching that volume succesfully via "smb://ubuntu/home/user/volume", but it keeps denying my password.  (I checked it, i swear).  My workgroup defaults to "MSHOME", is that my problem?
[08:44] <l_r> mneptok, it isn't really that. better lsb_release -a. thanks anyway
[08:44] <MrPwnage> wait some time, 64-bit versions of everything will be available
[08:44] <mneptok> MrPwnage: apart from Flash, what's the problem with x86-64?
[08:44] <maugli> deanl: i had to install xmodmap, to find out, wich keycodes are assigned to my multimedia buttons
[08:44] <c0drm0nk33> Damn, I keep losing my window decorations, I've tired Beryl now get the same problem
[08:44] <fuzzywuzzy> I had things working fine under dapper, but I just need to find the win32codecs now that PLF is down
[08:44] <MrPwnage> mneptok: flash is a big one, due to a lot of websites requiring it to work - also, as this guy said win32codecs do not work peroperly
[08:44] <MrPwnage> properly
[08:44] <MrPwnage> damn alcohol.
[08:44] <theshibboleth> 
[08:45] <MatrixMon> marx: Can I share my shared folder over the web??
[08:45] <MrPwnage> also, i noticed that 64-bit stuff tends to be less stable on this box
[08:45] <fuzzywuzzy> mau: try running smbclient from the command line - if it works, then check your firewall settings
[08:45] <mneptok> MrPwnage: i consider w32codecs not working to be a feature.
[08:45] <deanl> maugli: thanks, i'll give that a try
[08:45] <marx2k__> Matrix: Um... im not sure how youd do that
[08:45] <maugli> deanl: then i edited the .Xmodmap file in my home folder
[08:45] <MrPwnage> mneptok: are you a free software zealot?
[08:45] <MrPwnage> because i'm not.
[08:45] <MrPwnage> lmao.
[08:45] <marx2k__> im not a free software zealot... I am an open source zealot however
[08:45] <MatrixMon> Right clicked on a dir in my desktop and clicked shared
[08:45] <MrPwnage> ah, so the same thing
[08:46] <marx2k__> and open standards
[08:46] <mneptok> MrPwnage: i'm a freedom zealot. i wouldn't buy books written in a language i had to pay some company to use.
[08:46] <marx2k__> not the same thing
[08:46] <MrPwnage> mneptok: yeah, you're a free software zealot
[08:46] <fuzzywuzzy> mneptok: foss is best in theory, but in practice you still need to steal from m$ in order to get their crap converted into an open standard
[08:46] <marx2k__> you can charge $$ for open software
[08:46] <rredd4> MrPwnage  what os are you using
[08:46] <mneptok> MrPwnage: if it helps you to think so, go right ahead.
[08:46] <maugli> deanl: and assigned for example for "play"  keycode 162
[08:46] <maugli> 
[08:46] <maugli> XF86AudioPlay
[08:46] <crdlb> ffmpeg is making the win32codecs unneeded for most things
[08:46] <MrPwnage> easily done
[08:47] <MrPwnage> ubuntu, though slackware used to be my choice
[08:47] <MrPwnage> i just don't have time for it anymore :P
[08:47] <marx2k__> yeah I hear slack takes a lot of time to get going correctly
[08:47] <marx2k__> or set up how you want
[08:47] <MrPwnage> marx2k__: just like any distro - only reason to use slack is its customizability
[08:47] <MrPwnage> :P
[08:48] <marx2k__> eh... a base install of ubuntu typically is pretty close to how I want it
[08:48] <fuzzywuzzy> crdlb: have some old wmv's and mov's that I haven't converted yet.  my one remaining windozeboxen is slower than molasses
[08:48] <MrPwnage> marx2k__: and you're one person
[08:48] <marx2k__> yep
[08:48] <marx2k__> I should hope I am
[08:48] <MrPwnage> well, you know what i mean
[08:48] <MrPwnage> :)
[08:48] <MrPwnage> it's very rare that any one person sees any distro and goes "wow, this is just what i want"
[08:49] <MrPwnage> but
[08:49] <marx2k__> with the 'other' OS, I still had to spend a day installing/customizing
[08:49] <MrPwnage> ubuntu also comes closest for me
[08:49] <hueblur> help, I just updated edgy and it broke my wireless.
[08:49] <MrPwnage> hueblur: what?
[08:49] <marx2k__> hueblur, explain 'broke your wireless'
[08:49] <hueblur> it no longer works?
[08:50] <pavs> how do i remove kubuntu?
[08:50] <MrPwnage> however, i theme gnome to all fuck and probably turn on beryl
[08:50] <hueblur> iwconfig shows no wireless extensions
[08:50] <MrPwnage> also,. set up WINE so i can run WoW
[08:50] <MrPwnage> :)
[08:50] <mneptok> hueblur: sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
[08:50] <JamesBeen> hey, i have the linux image generic installed, running on a core 2 duo. The 686 image say it is obsoleted by the generic one. Is this correct?
[08:50] <MrPwnage> ironically, i end up using gentoo's howto
[08:50] <momal> Anyone know of a good conference program? I need to beable to use webcam over at least 4 people. and typing to each other. and needs linux and windows client :)
[08:50] <fuzzywuzzy> mrpwnage: cedega is only $15 ;)
[08:50] <mneptok> JamesBeen: yes.
[08:50] <MrPwnage> fuzzywuzzy: a month
[08:50] <MrPwnage> :p
[08:50] <fuzzywuzzy> momal: skype
[08:50] <MrPwnage> that adds up over time
[08:51] <momal> skype doesn't support webcam under linux
[08:51] <MrPwnage> over a year, it's $150
[08:51] <JamesBeen> mneptok: so the generic one is the ideal one to use?
[08:51] <MrPwnage> er
[08:51] <mneptok> JamesBeen: yes.
[08:51] <MrPwnage> $180
[08:51] <SatanGolga> fuzzywuzzy: cedega is way better than wine?
[08:51] <marx2k__> ok... what I DID like in KDE that Im not finding in Gnome is a way to easily switch between workspaces by running my mouse to the edge of the screen
[08:51] <fuzzywuzzy> MrPwnage: just pay the initial fee and cancel the update contract
[08:51] <cryosphere> i dont see Administration under System in the main xubuntu menu
[08:51] <MrPwnage> cedega pretty much IS wine.
[08:51] <marx2k__> does that exist in Gnome?
[08:51] <MrPwnage> fuzzywuzzy: no.
[08:51] <JamesBeen> whats the 686 image for?
[08:51] <MrPwnage> i bought cedega for $50 over a year ago
[08:51] <mneptok> marx2k__: ctl-atl <arrow>
[08:51] <fuzzywuzzy> SatanGolga: cedega is wine+ DirectX9
[08:51] <l_r> momal, i doubt it exists something for both windows/linux
[08:51] <MrPwnage> they switched to a subcription model
[08:51] <MrPwnage> :p
[08:52] <marx2k__> mneptok, yeah but that doesnt address my question :)
[08:52] <momal> cedega is just wine with an easyier interface for people unsure.
[08:52] <MrPwnage> i am now boycotting them for stealing my money
[08:52] <marx2k__> I want to do it with the mouse :)
[08:52] <momal> l_r: yea thats what im thinking :(... there has to be something though hmm
[08:52] <mneptok> JamesBeen: a stub for people upgrading from previous versions
[08:52] <SatanGolga> oh, ok
[08:52] <JamesBeen> thank you
[08:52] <cryosphere> should I see an Administration menu under System?
[08:53] <crdlb> marx2k__, brightside
[08:53] <MrPwnage> marx2k__:  doing it with the mouse is sometimes less intuitive, with enough command line time
[08:53] <mneptok> momal: NetMeeting + Ekiga
[08:53] <crdlb> http://wiki.catmur.co.uk/Brightside
[08:53] <MrPwnage> marx2k__: i never ever manage files in the GUI, just because i know how to do it via a terminal
[08:53] <Madpilot> cryosphere, yes
[08:53] <momal> mneptok: I'll look into it thanks :)
[08:53] <marx2k__> MrPwnage, forget managing files... I just want to switch to another workspace with my mouse
[08:53] <MrPwnage> oh
[08:53] <cryosphere> madpilot: and what does it mean if Im not?
[08:53] <marx2k__> Ooh brightside
[08:53] <MrPwnage> should just be able to roll your mouse wheel on the desktop without windows displayed
[08:54] <MrPwnage> or rather
[08:54] <JamesBeen> mneptok: i got another one if you don't mind. GRUB shows me 2 versions of the headers/image when I boot. Can I uninstall the older one or will I run into issues if i do
[08:54] <MrPwnage> do it right where you see the virtual desktop icons
[08:54] <Madpilot> cryosphere, hmm, not sure - you've got the Preferences sub-menu?
[08:54] <MrPwnage> just roll your mouse wheel
[08:54] <hueblur> mneptok, its all up to date
[08:54] <marx2k__> yeah but then I got to go bring my mouse up to those icons
[08:54] <hueblur> maybe I hosed it with a bleeing edge source.
[08:54] <cryosphere> madpilot: under System?
[08:54] <MrPwnage> ain't that a bitch?
[08:54] <hueblur> in my sources list.
[08:54] <rredd4> JamesBeen  i use the 686 image for my laptop, ndiswrapper likes to have the 686 kernel
[08:55] <mneptok> JamesBeen: as long as you're sure the new kernel and its modules installed themselves and work correctly you can remove the old kernel with the package tools.
[08:55] <JamesBeen> thank you
[08:55] <JamesBeen> rredd4: any advantages?
[08:55] <marx2k__> Hm I wonder if brightside is in the repositories
[08:55] <Madpilot> cryosphere, yes. you should have Prefs & Admin, then Help as the top three entries
[08:55] <mneptok> there is no 686 kernel for Edgy.
[08:55] <Madpilot> !info brightside
[08:55] <ubotu> brightside: Add reactivity to the corners and edges of your GNOME desktop. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.4.0-1ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 96 kB, installed size 924 kB
[08:55] <marx2k__> UHm it is not
[08:56] <rredd4> JamesBeen  it is just recommended
[08:56] <Madpilot> marx2k__, yes it is - in Universe
[08:56] <marx2k__> Linux Commodore-64 2.6.17-11-generic #2 SMP Thu Feb 1 19:52:28 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[08:56] <cryosphere> madpilot: Bulk Rename is the first entry here
[08:56] <marx2k__> I am not seeing it
[08:56] <crdlb> I have it on my dapper box
[08:56] <Madpilot> cryosphere, what? You sure you're running Ubuntu, and not Xubuntu or something else?
[08:56] <cryosphere> oh
[08:56] <hueblur> any clue what I should do about my wireless?
[08:57] <cryosphere> :) xubuntu
[08:57] <hueblur> it used to work.
[08:57] <sorush20> is there a ubuntu apache manual
[08:57] <sorush20> !apache
[08:57] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[08:57] <marx2k__> weird..thgere it is
[08:57] <Madpilot> cryosphere, much is explained... kind of hard to explain XFCE from Gnome... try #xubuntu!
[08:57] <rredd4> where can i find a good source for ut2k4?  I keep getting end of file error.
[08:57] <rredd4> tried many places
[08:58] <marx2k__> ok, it installed... but to where
[08:58] <l_r> momal, there's a solution. but it requires that you install a server. look at sip client + openmcu server
[08:59] <Madpilot> marx2k__, try launching brightside from the terminal
[08:59] <momal> l_r: thanks i'll look into that ^_^.. yea I don't mind running a server for it :p
[08:59] <marx2k__> I did
[08:59] <hueblur> how do I troubleshoot my wireless card in ubuntu?
[08:59] <marx2k__> nothing happened
[08:59] <hueblur> it used to work fine, but an upgrade hosed it.
[08:59] <crdlb> marx2k__, iirc it adds a control panel
[08:59] <marx2k__> Hmmm
[09:00] <Kresjah_laptop> Hi! I'm working on getting my Mobility M1 (mach64) up and running with mesa direct. I've had it working with older snapshots, but haven problems with the current version build from git source. Someone who think they could help me debug this issue? (By the way, I'm rather new to linux, started with ubuntu a few weeks ago) I have gotten this reply from dmesg | grep drm: http://rafb.net/p/XS9uP256.html
[09:00] <rredd4> cappy source for ut2k4?
[09:00] <marx2k__> Brightside will install an item into the Gnome Desktop Preferences system, available via preferences:/// and the Gnome menu  if you aren't running FAM you will need to kill gnome-panel to reload the menu tree.
[09:00] <l_r> momal, i would offer the skype team my help for writing video support under linux, if i only had the right contacts..
[09:01] <momal> l_r: hmm.. maybe contact them via email? show them your skill with it and maybe you can find some luck
[09:04] <marx2k__> Hah!brightside is totally what I wanted
[09:07] <quanchi> Has anyone here been sucessful in getting Counter Stike Source runnig in WINE?
[09:07] <MatrixMon> Could anyone tell me how to create a virtual volume for vmware?
[09:07] <oxigen> hey guys, how can i search for a keyword inside man pages?
[09:08] <billy> is xpenguins the only on-screen toy for GDE?  I like the toys.  They're neat.
[09:08] <quanchi> Has anyone here been sucessful in getting Counter Stike Source runnig in WINE?
[09:08] <J-_> quanchi: #winehq
[09:08] <billy> Doesn't WINE give you ~viruses~?
[09:09] <quanchi> no
[09:09] <marx2k__> oxigen: man man
[09:09] <oxigen> marx2k__: thanks
[09:09] <Steil> can someone recommend a good bittorrent client?
[09:09] <J-_> Opera is nice
[09:09] <crdlb> Steil, rtorrent (command line), deluge (gui)
[09:09] <oxigen> Steil: azureus
[09:10] <mdl178> azureus probably has the most features, but it's kind of resource hungry
[09:10] <marx2k__> oxigen: type 'h' inside of a man page
[09:10] <marx2k__> it will give you the info you seek
[09:10] <Steil> yeah azureus is banned from most of the trackers i use
[09:10] <crdlb> rtorrent can do almost anything azureus can do (except DHT) and it uses like 2% cppi
[09:10] <crdlb> cpu
[09:10] <mdl178> I wish I could get utorrent working with wine
[09:11] <mdl178> well, I can, but the upnp fails
[09:11] <Rodya> mdl178 so set up port forwarding manually and be done with it?
[09:11] <mdl178> so I guess I could use it with ... yes
[09:12] <crdlb> mdl178, upnp is a bad idea anyway
[09:13] <L4J> hi
[09:14] <sticks> me
[09:14] <AlexC_> Hi hi
[09:14] <L4J> i cant open .rar file with ubuntu..

[09:14] <L4J> okay thx
[09:15] <oxigen> marx2k__, thanks again! :)

[09:17] <ubotu> marx2k__: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:17] <L4J> I installed it, but how can I use it?
[09:17] <AlexC_> marx2k__: !! Always use a paste bin for that much text!
[09:17] <L4J> The file is still opening in archive manager
[09:17] <marx2k__> gotcha
[09:18] <AlexC_> L4J: right click on the file, extract ?
[09:18] <crdlb> L4J, the archive manager will use the unrar command
[09:18] <L4J> It still gives me an error.
[09:18] <AlexC_> L4J: were not psysic, what error?
[09:18] <L4J> It says archive type not supported
[09:19] <crdlb> L4J, try running the command 'unrar archivename.rar'
[09:19] <teeL> Hi, which release of privoxy should i download for ubuntu? =p
[09:19] <marx2k__> L4J: try installing file-roller through synaptic
[09:19] <marx2k__> or 'sudo aptitude install file-roller'
[09:20] <savvas> does anyone know when will firefox 2.0.0.2 be available for update?
[09:20] <hater> i have old version of ubuntu :S  worst thing im like lost in most things lol
[09:20] <L4J> It says it is already installed
[09:20] <VonFluffy> savvas: when its tested and ready?
[09:20] <savvas> VonFluffy: www.mozilla.com/firefox has already 2.0.0.2 available for download
[09:20] <pirothezero> firefox 2.0.0.2 is already out using the installnewfirefox.sh script it ownloads it for oyu
[09:21] <AlexC_> savvas: few weeks to hit the repos
[09:21] <savvas> ok thank you
[09:21] <AlexC_> hater: then upgrade?
[09:21] <L4J> weird.
[09:21] <AlexC_> !upgrate | hater
[09:21] <AlexC_> woops
[09:21] <L4J> Does anybody use Frostwire?
[09:21] <VonFluffy> savvas: yes i know that but ubuntu doesnt directly get those binaries... they compile their own and test it then deploy it into apt
[09:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about upgrate - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:21] <hater> im like new
[09:21] <AlexC_> !upgrade | hater
[09:21] <ubotu> hater: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[09:21] <hater> im trying to download new version
[09:21] <AlexC_> hater: 6.06 Edgy Eft?
[09:21] <AlexC_> woops
[09:21] <AlexC_> 6.10
[09:21] <hater> i did upgrade since i just installed today
[09:22] <AlexC_> damm I hate mornings.
[09:22] <L4J> I have a problem running Frostwire. When I click on the icon in the Internet sub-menu nothing happens.
[09:22] <hater> but like in dont think i did like upgrade to like a new version
[09:22] <AlexC_> L4J: run it from terminal "frostwire" and paste the output here (if it's not to big)
[09:22] <marx2k__> L4J try running it from terminal
[09:22] <marx2k__> Hm, AlexC is fast
[09:22] <pirothezero> savvas: http://pykeylogger.sourceforge.net/installnewfirefox.sh
[09:22] <savvas> much obliged :)
[09:22] <AlexC_> marx2k__: that I am! not bad for 8 in te morning hey ;=)
[09:23] <hater> i think i will just burn the iso and install again
[09:23] <pirothezero> then chmod +x installnewfirefox.sh and run it ./installnewfirefox.sh
[09:23] <L4J> Starting FrostWire...
[09:23] <L4J> Java exec found in PATH. Verifying...

[09:23] <L4J> OOPS, unable to locate java exec in  /usr/lib/  hierarchy
[09:23] <L4J> You need to upgrade to JRE 1.5.x or newer from http://www.java.com

[09:23] <marx2k__> Hm, it's 2:23AM here :) gnight!

[09:23] <AlexC_> L4J:

[09:23] <KenSentMe> savvas, i would recommend waiting for the new release being available in the official Ubuntu repositories
[09:23] <marx2k__> L4J: Looks like youve solved your own problem
[09:23] <AlexC_> L4J: please, never do that again.
[09:23] <marx2k__> download Java JRE

[09:24] <nowhere> hi, when i log in @ ubuntu it gives me an orange screen... nothing else... Used to work ok but all of a sudden this?
[09:24] <CoRnJuLiOx> i just turned on my PC after coming home from school to find out that my desktop has mysteriously resized itself to 640 x 480 and refuses to change to anything else
[09:24] <CoRnJuLiOx> i recall that this could be a driver issue, but it was working fine before this and i don't remember how to check if my nvidia drivers are loaded
[09:24] <crdlb> CoRnJuLiOx, have you tried to reboot?
[09:24] <AlexC_> CoRnJuLiOx: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and add in the extra resolutions you need? Or, try re-instaling you're drivers
[09:25] <marx2k__> nowhere: type in a terminal/console 'cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log  | grep EE' and see what  errors youre getting from starting X
[09:25] <AlexC_> !ati | CoRnJuLiOx
[09:25] <ubotu> CoRnJuLiOx: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto

[09:26] <mjg> Hi.  my printer will not install.  It's shared from an XP machine.  I can run the new printer wizard, and everything looks ok, but afterwards: no printer.  Any ideas anyone?
[09:26] <CoRnJuLiOx> aren't i supposed to see something like Load "nvidia" in the modules section?
[09:26] <valehru_> Hey guys, can someone help me set up a vnc server on a computer via ssh?
[09:27] <AlexC_> gotta go people! college awaits me ... fun
[09:27] <AlexC_> cya!
[09:27] <oxigen> hmm, command: mailq test@example.com | echo exampletext works, but how can i set Subject? Anyone knows?
[09:27] <savvas> oxigen: maybe a parameter -s "subject"
[09:28] <VonFluffy> this is a cool laptop http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2007/02/26/asus_w5fe_windows_vista_laptop/  but will the 2nd screen work on ubuntu
[09:28] <oxigen> savvas: nope
[09:28] <Flannel> VonFluffy: depends on how it's done.
[09:29] <marx2k__> what the hell is the point of that little screen??
[09:30] <Flannel> VonFluffy: you'd have to reflash an embedded linux onto the micro... whatever thing.  Which is definately doable.
[09:30] <mjg> nobody knows about printers?
[09:30] <VonFluffy> marx2k__: it uses windows vista sideshow features and lets you use programs
[09:30] <marx2k__> Hm... im still not sure what functionality that has in the real world
[09:31] <recoding> noob question here, i cannot isntall rpms on my unbuntu, seems the command isnt there? any suggestions on how to fix
[09:31] <marx2k__> I mean... how hard is it to open the laptop screen if you already have the laptop right in front of you
[09:31] <VonFluffy> marx2k__: for example shut down main OS and still listen to MP3s of sync your contacts from your cell phone with the notebook
[09:31] <Flannel> recoding: RPMs aren't used on ubuntu (we use debs).  If you absolutely cannot find a deb of the program, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RPM/AlienHowto
[09:31] <Zassenhaus> k
[09:31] <marx2k__> recoding... ubuntu is a debian (deb) based system
[09:31] <VonFluffy> marx2k__: why waste battery when you dont need a full OS running
[09:32] <marx2k__> !alien
[09:32] <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)
[09:32] <marx2k__> alien screwed up my system good once
[09:32] <recoding> ah thankyou, right i wanted to get the latest version of Gaim, was in rpm format thankyou for your help
[09:32] <Flannel> recoding: Er... the newest GAIM is available in a deb
[09:32] <marx2k__> VonFluffy, but doesnt the laptop have to be running for that little screen to work?
[09:32] <Flannel> !gaim | recoding
[09:32] <ubotu> recoding: Instant Messenger Clients: Gaim (GNOME, http://help.ubuntu.com/community/GaimHowto), Kopete (KDE), both supporting MSN, Jabber, AIM, Gadu-Gadu, Novell Groupwise, ICQ and IRC.
[09:32] <recoding> i saw rpm at the top of the list, thats why i got that version
[09:33] <VonFluffy> marx2k__: no it doesnt it uses its own embedded OS the actual laptop cpu etc is not powered up
[09:33] <marx2k__> oh so its a seperate little gadget tacked onto the laptop?
[09:33] <Flannel> marx2k__: with the ability to communicate with the main laptop (to synch, etc), yeah.
[09:33] <VonFluffy> marx2k__: yeah except its not totally seperate -  it is able to communicate with the host OS as well
[09:34] <marx2k__> I see...
[09:34] <L4J> What is a root password?
[09:34] <Flannel> L4J: ubuntu doesn't use the root account, use sudo
[09:34] <marx2k__> L4J: what are yu trying to do
[09:34] <marx2k__> !sudo
[09:34] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.

[09:35] <L4J> I know, it says authentication failed in the terminal window.
[09:35] <marx2k__> when you use your own password?
[09:35] <L4J> yes
[09:35] <marx2k__> heh
[09:35] <Flannel> L4J: what command are you using?
[09:35] <L4J> su
[09:36] <marx2k__> dont use su
[09:36] <tunganet> anyone know how i can install Warcraft 3 on my ubuntu?
[09:36] <Flannel> L4J: not su, sudo.  Ubuntu doesnt use the root account, hense, no su
[09:36] <L4J> oh
[09:36] <marx2k__> L4J, open up synaptic and install Java JRE through there
[09:36] <L4J> whats the name of it?
[09:36] <tunganet> How do i install games on linux >.<
[09:36] <marx2k__> search JRE I'd imagine

[09:38] <marx2k__> L4J, open up synaptic... do a search for 'jre' --scroll down to java-jre
[09:38] <marx2k__> install it :0
[09:38] <marx2k__> its reaqlly that easy
[09:39] <VonFluffy> http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/08/lge-z1-laptop-packs-sideshow-too-but-sexier-this-time/ LG has sideshow too
[09:39] <Flannel> VonFluffy: you might want to take it to #ubuntu-offtopic ;)
[09:39] <L4J> there is no java-jre
[09:39] <Flannel> L4J: search for "sun-java"
[09:39] <KenSentMe> L4J, look for sun-java5-jre
[09:40] <L4J> there isnt that eitehr.
[09:40] <L4J> either*

I've had it working with older snapshots, but haven problems with the current version build from git source. Someone who think they could help me debug this issue?

[09:44] <mjg> if nobody can help with my printer problem here, what's the best web-forum to ask on?
[09:44] <L4J> how do i enable multiverse?
[09:44] <marx2k__> L4J, we just told you how
[09:44] <shatrat> mjg, linuxprinting.org has a database with tons of different models and what driver to use
[09:45] <marx2k__> Synaptic -> Settings/Repositories
[09:45] <L4J> I'm sorry.. im confused beyond anything I know..
[09:45] <L4J> Okay, I don't see anything referencing "multiverse" there.
[09:45] <mjg> shatrat: I'm using the driver they suggest, but no dice...
[09:45] <L4J> What should I be looking for..?
[09:45] <Ademan> anyone who's using the banshee media player, the banshee website says one of the "core" plugins is internet radio, yet i don't see it, did ubuntu just leave it out of the package?
[09:45] <marx2k__> L4J: its the first check box
[09:46] <L4J> Ubuntu 6.06 LTS?
[09:46] <Madpilot> L4J, 'non-free', I think it's labelled as. check 'community-supported' while you're there, you'll want Universe
[09:48] <mjg> or...  Is there a way of running gnome's printer-config wizard from the command line?
[09:48] <L4J> okay. i think i got it.
[09:48] <JohnRobert> mjg:
[09:48] <JohnRobert> yes
[09:48] <L4J> omg. you people are so helpful.
[09:48] <JohnRobert> try gnome-printer-config
[09:48] <L4J> lol, some people would have already gotten frustrated with me.
[09:48] <JohnRobert> L4J: being rude will get you nowhere.
[09:48] <teeL> hehe
[09:49] <pirothezero> lol JohnRobert
[09:49] <spike723> anyone have ubuntu running diskless?  ie: root on nfs
[09:49] <KenSentMe> Ademan, i think the plugin is in the option,  'Open location' from the music menu.
[09:49] <L4J> i apologize for being so noobish..
[09:49] <JohnRobert> L4J: http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=enable+multiverse+ubuntu&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&rls=com.ubuntu:en-US:official&client=firefox-a
[09:50] <JohnRobert> search query was: "enable multiverse ubuntu"
[09:50] <teeL> Im gonna install ubuntu now, but im not sure if im gonna use it as a gateway with privoxy or just a print server =P
[09:50] <JohnRobert> learn to use google
[09:50] <Ademan> KenSentMe: hrm, but it seems every other plugin is listed in the "plugins" dialog... plus i tried opening a last.fm stream using "open location" and it died on me
[09:50] <JohnRobert> !google
[09:50] <ubotu> Google is a very popular search engine: http://www.google.com  -  Google also has a Linux-specific search engine: http://google.com/linux

[09:51] <KenSentMe> Ademan, i'm listening to a radio stream right now, could be that last.fm isn't supported. Maybe the plugin isn't in the list because it's part of the core?
[09:51] <mjg> JohnRobert: thanks
[09:51] <JohnRobert> no worries
[09:51] <mesut> hi,is there a workaround for intel 965 chipsets ? (Pata issue)
[09:51] <Ademan> that's possible, although i think more likely i tried to open the wrong URL :-), i just followed the url in firefox, it's a page not the actual stream, my bad :-)
[09:52] <Feral_Kid> I want to set up a RAID 1 on my machine... Can I do that on a running machine or do I need to do it on a fresh installation?
[09:52] <KenSentMe> Ademan, check here. There is a feature request for last.fm support
[09:52] <KenSentMe> Ademan, http://banshee-project.org/FeatureRequest
[09:53] <VonFluffy> Ademan: i highly suggest Exaile media player
[09:53] <gradin> does droping a box in a dmz bypass a nat?
[09:53] <Ademan> VonFluffy: well i've been using amarok for the longest time, i just thought i'd check out banshee
[09:53] <VonFluffy> Ademan: well if you are a gnome guy then exaile would fit in better
[09:53] <Ademan> KenSentMe: hrm, i had a memory of using rhythmbox with last.fm and i figured maybe that was through gstreamer or something, either way that's too bad :-/
[09:54] <gradin> does droping a box in a dmz bypass a nat?

[09:56] <Ademan> KenSentMe: where did you grab your internet radio from?  Since i can't use last.fm might as well find another site :-)
[09:56] <Feral_Kid> gradin> That depends... Does your DMZ sit on an exposed (public) IP block?
[09:57] <KenSentMe> Ademan, from the Dutch Radio 1. This is the url to the stream: mms://wm7.xs4all.nl/streamgate42
[09:57] <gradin> Feral_Kid: good question...
[09:57] <Ademan> thanks
[09:58] <Feral_Kid> gradin> If you are DMZ is still NAT'd the answer is no... The only thing that you get is that you can use iptables, and open up all ports to the DMZ host...
[09:59] <mneptok> Feral_Kid: http://www.somafm.com
[10:01] <Feral_Kid> mneptok> I will listen to soma as soon as I can either A.) Remaster Trixbox or B.) see if I can get RAID 1 running on a running asterisk box... :) But I already support SOMA!!!

[10:13] <l2s> I would prefer if it just booted to the command line
[10:13] <mooey> Hellevator, you should now have a folder called 'coreutils-$version' with the source in it
[10:14] <AndrewWilliams> l2s: remove the gdm script from the relevant /etc/rc#.d folders, not sure if theres a command to quickly do it
[10:14] <Hellevator> mooey lol your right, i had no idea that it would go into my home dir.
[10:14] <mooey> Hellevator, it goes into the folder you run the operation from :-)

[10:23] <debusr> how do i enable NTP to sync my machine time on xubuntu?
[10:23] <mneptok> debusr: sudo aptitude install ntpd
[10:23] <billy> when burning iso images, is 4.0x slow enough.  i understand some recommend 2.0x.
[10:23] <mneptok> billy: the slower the better
[10:24] <billy> mneptok: im sure you're right.
[10:24] <dee> i looked at the wiki and got bcm43xx installed but when i tried to to run the network manager it never showed the icon in my toolbar
[10:25] <teeL> anyone got an idea of what else i can run on my server =P its currently only file and printserver
[10:25] <mneptok> teeL: "what else?"
[10:26] <teeL> Yes.
[10:26] <tunganet> hey
[10:26] <tunganet> is it possible to play games under wine without having the disk in the drive?
[10:26] <Hellevator> how do you make the find command descend into directories?  I tried -maxdepth but that didn't seem to do anything
[10:26] <debusr> mneptok: that's it? no configs necessary?
[10:28] <mneptok> debusr: only if you want to manually define NTP servers
[10:28] <debusr> do i need to reboot
[10:30] <Hellevator> nevermind I got it
[10:30] <mjg> Hellavator: find does that anyway
[10:32] <debusr> how do i setup wireless on xubuntu?
[10:32] <mjg> ok I posted my printer question to
[10:32] <tunganet> i dont know hwo to run the application through the terminal :(
[10:32] <billy> mines is a hard game.

[10:32] <billy> 30 sec.
[10:32] <mneptok> everybody out of the pool!
[10:33] <l2s> Andrew do you use blockhosts in ubuntu to prevent ssh dictionary or bruteforce attacks?
[10:33] <mgsloan> mine runs them very well, yet i don't have 64bit ubuntu
[10:33] <mgsloan> driver issues with the gfx
[10:33] <mneptok> l2s: those are easily solved by requiring key authentication
[10:33] <l2s> as in key only?
[10:34] <mneptok> yup
[10:34] <tunganet> hey guys
[10:34] <tunganet> how do i run games without disk?
[10:34] <l2s> how would one do that
[10:34] <l2s> whats it called in the sshd_config?
[10:34] <jo__> debusr: take network-manager from repo
[10:35] <mneptok> l2s: "# Change to no to disable tunnelled clear text passwords"
[10:35] <nowhere> debusr: i can tell you, ubuntu + wireless don't go together :)
[10:35] <mneptok> so, change to "no" ;)
[10:35] <Agafonov> I have nvidia geforce 6150 on-board, will I have problems with amd64 distro?
[10:35] <l2s> thanks mneptok
[10:35] <unop> l2s,  you can hide the ssh (or anything else) server from the outside world and open up access to a requesting host using port-knocking and iptables
[10:35] <debusr> how do i fix 'you are not allowe to access system configuration' error? when i click on system setting icons?
[10:35] <jo__> debusr: network-manager goes well with wireless, try, its good
[10:36] <debusr> jo__: i can' access them.
[10:36] <debusr> can't
[10:36] <jo__> debusr: cant access what?

[10:37] <l2s> done thanks
[10:37] <Warp4_Work> installed xubuntu and ubuntu on 2 workstations tonight and both of them are double-headed.  however, I can only get information to display on one monitor.  what would I need to do to enable use of the other monitor?
[10:38] <unop> nowhere,  if you read windows forums, mac forums, cisco forums, etc etc .. they are all rampant with wireless issues .. it's just the state of wireless networking :)
[10:38] <jo__> Warp4_Work: a good xorg.conf configuration, what video-card do you have?
[10:38] <Rodya> nowhere, i am running ubuntu + wireless & it works fine
[10:38] <mneptok> nowhere: 802.11x works great for me, on both desktop and laptop. but i don't make hardware decisions based on color or cool LEDs. ;)
[10:38] <Ru-ku> Hey all, I need some major help. Been playing with Beryl and now I can'y display anything. I'd like to know how to close beryl, or switch back to Metacity as my WM?
[10:39] <unop> nowhere,  for the most part, if you understand it and your hardware is supported, it's a small issue that can be overcome
[10:39] <jo__> nowhere: my wireless works 1a in ubuntu, all i needed was network-manager, the rest forget it,
[10:39] <Ru-ku> *can't
[10:39] <KenSentMe> Warp4_Work, Check this thread on the forum, it explains a lot and has good answers if you have questions: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=221174
[10:39] <nowhere> cool so all the people that claim it works fine, which one of you is willing to help me with it?
[10:39] <Ru-ku> Or even how to close Beryl down :S
[10:40] <debusr> got disconnected.
[10:40] <nowhere> have been trying to do it for two days, WEP works, WPA doesn't - whatever I try.
[10:40] <jo__> nowhere: what ubuntu do u have?
[10:40] <mneptok> nowhere: i will. our support contracts are quite reasonably priced. ;)
[10:40] <alienbrain> Anybody know what happened to package php4-dbase? It was in Warty and Hoary but it was removed.
[10:40] <debusr> how do i acess the system config from the gui?
[10:40] <Ru-ku> Anyone even know the process name for beryl?
[10:40] <mneptok> nowhere: sudo aptitude install network-manager-gnome
[10:40] <jo__> nohwere: u have network-manager installed, cause it works good together with wpa-suppliant
[10:40] <debusr> i get 'you are not allowed to access the system config' errors.
[10:41] <nowhere> jo__: dapper but going to try edgy
[10:41] <jo__> edgy is good
[10:41] <Ru-ku> Please, anyone, so I can at least work on it
[10:41] <nowhere> jo__: I have network-manager, for me somehow it only supports wep
[10:41] <debusr> help please :(
[10:41] <nowhere> no wpa options available, maybe it's the driver
[10:41] <Ru-ku> Or direct me to a Beryl IRC room or something
[10:41] <mneptok> Ru-ku: /join #ubuntu-effects
[10:41] <nowhere> it's an rt2500 card
[10:41] <mneptok> nowhere: sudo aptitude install network-manager-gnome

[10:42] <Ru-ku> Cheers mneptok

[10:42] <mneptok> nowhere: no, it does WPA
[10:42] <nowhere> mneptok: For me it doesn't
[10:42] <jo__> nowhere:  wait i got link somewhere explaining the setups for wpa-support, moment svp
[10:42] <mneptok> nowhere: i know because 1). i'm using it for WPA now -and- 2). i support this stuff for a living ;)
[10:43] <nowhere> mneptok: Then please explain why it only lists WEP for me?

[10:44] <Le-Chuck_ITA> hi all
[10:44] <nowhere> I have both the network-manager-gnome and wpasupplicant
[10:44] <Le-Chuck_ITA> quick question: how do I manage modules installed with module-assistant so that they get re-installed when I upgrade my kernel?
[10:45] <jo__> nowhere: check out the link i gave u, cause u got to reconfigure something
[10:47] <Ru-ku> mneptok: Know of any others, as that room is dead?
[10:47] <nowhere> mneptok: It's a Siemens Gigaset SX551 router (also known as experia box), the network card is a Linksys wmp54g (rt2500), encryption is set as WPA2-PSK / WPA-PSK. Using Windows XP the connection works fine, if I change it to WEP it works in Ubuntu too.
[10:48] <debusr> can someone tell me why i'm getting 'You are not allowed to access system configuration' when i access the system menu?
[10:48] <jo__> debusr: are you logged in as admin? did u change something there previously?
[10:49] <debusr> no.
[10:49] <debusr> i'm a normal user.
[10:49] <prom> debusr: for doing that you have to be in group admin.
[10:49] <jo__> debusr: me too,,, ubuntu edgy?
[10:49] <funpop> umm what was the channel again for beryl support ?
[10:49] <debusr> yes
[10:50] <debusr> prom: there's no such group
[10:50] <nowhere> just go to #beryl , lot's of people there
[10:50] <jo__> funpop: /join #beryl

[10:53] <nowhere> mneptok: It's broadcasting the SSID, doesn't check for MAC addresses, options for encryption are: 1) WPA2-PSK, 2) WPA-2PSK / WPA-PSK, 3) WEP, 4) WPA2, 5) WPA2 / WPA. Option 2 is set with a keylength of 26 characters.
[10:54] <mneptok> nowhere: disable any authentication on that router except WPA and see wha'ppens
[10:54] <funpop> help me! i think i made something wrong: i really have problems with selecting different windows..they are all on top. if i click the title bar of a windows thats inactive, it doesnt overlay the current window..
[10:55] <nowhere> I found it strange that network-manager-gnome doesn't allow me to pick WPA, even not when I try to create a new connection. Could that indicate an issue with the driver?
[10:55] <mneptok> nowhere: it could. does the card support WPA?
[10:56] <osfameron> nowhere: I managed to connect to WPA wireless at home over the weekend just fine with network-manager applet
[10:56] <nowhere> mneptok: Using it now with WPA @ WinXP
[10:56] <mneptok> nowhere: so disable any authentication on that router except WPA and see wha'ppens
[10:56] <osfameron> I was quite impressed... it *looked* like Linux, but where was the wireless configuration pain? ;-)
[10:56] <debusr> jo__: where are the files in xubuntu?
[10:56] <nowhere> mneptok: I think nothing happens for I can't set WPA at network manager?

[10:58] <the_walrus> Is it possible to install Ubuntu from Debian by replacing the apt sources with ubuntu sources?
[10:59] <cry0x> the_walrus, you'll more than likely run into a dependency hell
[10:59] <nowhere> CoRnJuLiOx: make that #openoffice.org
[10:59] <the_walrus> Probably
[10:59] <the_walrus> But with a broken collarbone, I need something to do for a week
[10:59] <cry0x> lol
[10:59] <cry0x> try it and find out, then tell the rest of us how it goes
[10:59] <cry0x> I've never tried it but I've thought about it
[10:59] <the_walrus> There's actually a page on it , linked from the howto
[10:59] <the_walrus> Heh
[11:00] <the_walrus> Will do
[11:00] <cry0x> ubuntu's repos are much more bleeding edge than debian's stale repositories
[11:00] <the_walrus> Yeah
[11:00] <the_walrus> Thats the reason I'm doing it

[11:19] <harveyd> peacer, if your local machine has a host, then scp myremotefile mylocalhost:/mylocalfile
[11:19] <harveyd> if not just use a seperate session
[11:20] <peacer> thanks
[11:21] <Kresjah_laptop> Hey! During building of xf86-video-ati (from git), I stumble upon this issue as detailed in this bug report: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9557 . I didn't quite understand the proposed way of solving it, so I was wondering if you people could help me interpret it into a newbie friendly solution :p
[11:23] <mneptok> Kresjah_laptop: if you're a newbie, why are you compiling source? ;)
[11:23] <victor__> Hello?
[11:24] <victor__> Anyone here who could possibly help me with a "small" problem i have?
[11:24] <mneptok> not when you put "small" in quotes
[11:24] <L4J> hey again
[11:25] <victor__> Well, when i mean small i mean i still can usemy computer but gnome-panel keeps crashing and crashing
[11:25] <victor__> What i suspet might be the problem is that i locked all the luancher icons.
[11:26] <victor__> But since gnome-panel keeps crashing... I can't really unlock them. Unless there is a config file somewhere, which i havent found yet, anyone know where this is?
[11:26] <hjmills> is there a gui fstab editor?
[11:26] <Kresjah_laptop> mneptok: Well, I just came from windows a few weeks ago, and jumped onto ubuntu. However, due to my crappy video card, I've been suffering from day 1, and being brute forced into learning no-newbie-stuff very early :p (Mobility M1 + mach64 + dri + mesa + ubuntu = hell)
[11:27] <mneptok> victor__: do you mind having to configure tha panel from scratch?
[11:27] <victor__> No not really.
[11:27] <victor__> I have all day :D
[11:27] <mneptok> victor__: rm -rf ~/.gconf/apps/panel
[11:28] <mneptok> Kresjah_laptop: new users should never have to compile source.
[11:28] <mneptok> Kresjah_laptop: what are you trying to do? what's the goal?
[11:28] <victor__> Okay
[11:28] <marx71> #linuxpakistan
[11:29] <mneptok> victor__: on-channel, please
[11:29] <Kresjah_laptop> Getting gl to work with my ati mobility m1
[11:29] <victor__> mneptok:okay
[11:29] <mneptok> Kresjah_laptop: just GL? or GL accelerated compositing?
[11:30] <Kresjah_laptop> For some reason (rumours of security reasons), the mesa mach64 kernel modules are not supplied with the pre-built ubuntu deb packages
[11:30] <wtfgsh> sex
[11:30] <Kresjah_laptop> So, I have to build them myself... and so I stressed with that for ages
[11:30] <harveyd> eg@ubuntu:~$ ssh-agent sh -c 'ssh-add < /dev/null && bash'
[11:30] <harveyd> Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
[11:30] <harveyd> Xlib: No protocol specified
[11:30] <Kresjah_laptop> And to build that, I needed to build drm too
[11:30] <tunganet> How do i stop the lag from loading warcraft with WINE?
[11:30] <harveyd> whats up with that?
[11:30] <wtfgsh> thnks
[11:30] <wtfgsh> i needed a good pat
[11:30] <Kresjah_laptop> With that finally done (today), I insert the mach64.ko, just to get an error message when it tries to load the module
[11:31] <tunganet> How do i stop the lag from WINE?
[11:31] <mneptok> wtfgsh: keep up the juvenile trolling and that pat turns into something a bit less friendly.
[11:31] <Kresjah_laptop> It seems that I need to update my version of xf86-video-ati to a version compatible with the newer mesa and drm I just built
[11:31] <victor__> mneptok: After i did that, what do i do next?
[11:31] <Kresjah_laptop> But my intent: Mesa GLX Direct ;)
[11:31] <MrMeep> Hmm
[11:31] <mneptok> victor__: log in to GNOME
[11:31] <MrMeep> This is a nice place.
[11:32] <victor__> ahh
[11:32] <victor__> mneptok: Sweet you solved the problem! I'm never going to lock all thoseluancher icons again.
[11:33] <tunganet> wine lags
[11:33] <tunganet> how do i fix?
[11:33] <victor__> mneptok: Thank you!
[11:33] <MrMeep> tunganet, nice values

[11:47] <leagris> nocturn, (a Wiki / Forum) should be enough for small scale tracking)
[11:47] <mneptok> nocturn: i used Mantis for a while at a prior job. it works fine, if your needs are straigthforward.
[11:48] <mneptok> doofus: do not repeat questions every 2 minutes. now i'm not asking.

[11:56] <addictedtothenet> hello all ye old fathful
[11:57] <addictedtothenet> faithful
[11:57] <CrummyGummy> Seriously though, I've got a server that keeps crashing and I want to implement some sort of netdump. It seems crash is the answer. Has anyone here used it, or something similar.
[11:57] <CrummyGummy> Or am I barking up the wrong tree?
[11:57] <addictedtothenet> can anyone help me with vsftpd
[11:57] <Anician> Hi, I need help with setting up an internet connection for Ubuntu.
[11:58] <nowhere> Hi Anician, what kind of problems are arising on your path?
[11:58] <Anician> I typed "sudo pppoeconf" at the Terminal and it asked me for my password but for some reason, I couldn't type any letters or numbers.
[11:58] <CrummyGummy> addictedtothenet, and the problem is????
[11:58] <hjmills> Anician, you can - they just dont appear on screen
[11:58] <mneptok> tulga: sudo updatedb && locate .php .html
[11:58] <Anician> oh
[11:58] <tulga> mneptok: no. I need use this script. I only need pattern
[11:58] <Anician> damn. Well, thanks a lot.
[11:58] <addictedtothenet> well i just did a apt-get remove of proftpd and installed vsftpd and i cznt get it to connect at all
[11:59] <draidis> has somebody a link with a tutorial how to install downloaded programs in ubuntu? There is only a older version in synaptic ...
[11:59] <mneptok> draidis: of ... ?
[11:59] <addictedtothenet> i checked the settings but its not as layed out as proftpd was n the forums
[11:59] <CrummyGummy> addictedtothenet, edit the vsftpd.conf file.
[11:59] <mr_grump5> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7770/ anyone?
[11:59] <vegiVamp> draidis: if you downloaded the .deb of the newer version, dpkg -i <debfile>
[12:00] <yomm> Morning all :)
[12:00] <mneptok> draidis: the rule of thumb about compiling source is "if you have to ask how, you probably shouldn't be doing it"
[12:00] <vegiVamp> draidis: and hope there's no unsatisfied dependencies :-)
[12:00] <addictedtothenet> yea in the proftpd file you can set the dir's and that but in the vsftpd i don't see anyting like that
[12:00] <yomm> compiles from scratch :)
[12:01] <addictedtothenet> and now i can't even connect at all
[12:01] <mneptok> addictedtothenet: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-3-Manual/ref-guide/s1-ftp-vsftpd-conf.html
[12:01] <hjmills> draidis, http://monkeyblog.org/ubuntu/installing/
[12:01] <mneptok> addictedtothenet: why FTP and not SFTP?
[12:02] <mr_grump5>  need some help->>http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7770/
[12:02] <draidis> hjmills: thanks, ... another guide today, ... I hope this will be the final one :)
[12:03] <hjmills> draidis, this one is pretty comprehensive and seems to be recommended alot
[12:03] <mneptok> mr_grump5: an mp4 *file* is not a DVD
[12:03] <addictedtothenet> thanks for that guide.. but i went through the settings and where are the dir's to set aa available
[12:04] <addictedtothenet> and yea that would be good sftp
[12:04] <mneptok> addictedtothenet: SFTP is *way* easier to set up. and far, FAR more secure.
[12:04] <mr_grump5> mneptok:i even tried to open some divx cd's still am getting same error...
[12:05] <mneptok> mr_grump5: sudo aptitude install gstreamer-plugins-ugly
[12:05] <addictedtothenet> so i have to make seperate lists files
[12:05] <mneptok> addictedtothenet: sudo aptitude install openssh-server
[12:05] <addictedtothenet> thats what i use to configure my servers
[12:06] <hjmills> addictedtothenet, hooray for SSH
[12:06] <addictedtothenet> i just want to have ftp access for some people that i have web space for
[12:06] <mr_grump5> mneptok:i have all the codecs installed
[12:06] <addictedtothenet> yea putty rules
[12:06] <mneptok> addictedtothenet: why not give them accounts and encrypt their traffic?
[12:06] <mneptok> mr_grump5: for what?
[12:07] <addictedtothenet> i could do that.. but what about just having anyone with a given username and pass access certain files
[12:07] <mr_grump5> mneptok:for playing avi
[12:07] <mneptok> mr_grump5: ah, it's a permissions issue. unmaount and change permissions on the mount point
[12:08] <addictedtothenet> i was using proftpd until someone told me about vsftpd
[12:08] <mr_grump5> mneptok:how??
[12:08] <mneptok> addictedtothenet: why would you open up such a giant security hole?
[12:08] <mneptok> mr_grump5: chown anh chmod
[12:08] <addictedtothenet> what do you mean
[12:08] <mneptok> *and
[12:08] <krinns> hi all
[12:09] <krinns> i have gestetner 3235 copier and printer
[12:09] <krinns> isam going to move into ubuntu
[12:09] <mneptok> addictedtothenet: FTP is a clear text protocol. it is highly insecure. crackers with absolutely no skills or experience can easily sniff FTP credentials.
[12:09] <krinns> should that copier works on ubuntu
[12:09] <krinns> any idea
[12:09] <mr_grump5> mneptok:it says invalid user
[12:10] <addictedtothenet> ok basically it would be good to have ftp access to different dir's for the web server accounts
[12:10] <addictedtothenet> so should i hook them up with user accounts?
[12:10] <addictedtothenet> and then use ssh?
[12:10] <mneptok> addictedtothenet: absolutely.
[12:11] <mneptok> addictedtothenet: Windows users can use PuTTY + Filezilla. OSX users Terminal.app + CyberDuck.
[12:11] <mneptok> addictedtothenet: FTP is a great idea. if this is 1992. ;)
[12:11] <addictedtothenet> ok.. so make new accounts for each person and then get them using putty to access the dir
[12:11] <knoppix> any1 in here who can say why Linux has a prob with installing and formating SATA HD?
[12:12] <knoppix> :(
[12:12] <mneptok> addictedtothenet: Filezilla is the (S)FTP client for Windows i'd use
[12:12] <addictedtothenet> and how would i go about making the web server see each account dir as the domain
[12:12] <addictedtothenet> LOL
[12:12] <mneptok> addictedtothenet: vhosts
[12:12] <addictedtothenet> yea i saw that
[12:12] <linxeh> knoppix: I guess because your machine has an unsupported SATA chipset or somesuch
[12:13] <mr_grump5> mneptok:this is what happen when i try to play a avi file  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7776/
[12:13] <addictedtothenet> it looks like i can say what dir that the particular domain looks at right?
[12:13] <knoppix> thx for ur attention
[12:13] <addictedtothenet> even if it isn't in the www
[12:13] <knoppix> :
[12:13] <jo_> m
[12:13] <teeL> How do i mount a partition?
[12:13] <addictedtothenet> well i use lighttpd
[12:14] <addictedtothenet> and i know that would be easy
[12:14] <mneptok> addictedtothenet: and?
[12:14] <pseudoroot> !mount | teeL
[12:14] <ubotu> teeL: 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
[12:14] <addictedtothenet> damn.. why do you guys have to make it look so easy when i slave over it for hours??
[12:14] <addictedtothenet> LOL
[12:14] <pseudoroot> !fstab | teeL
[12:14] <ubotu> teeL: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[12:15] <mr_grump5> mneptok:any ideas?
[12:15] <teeL> There isnt any "Disks" in System -> Administration
[12:15] <mneptok> mr_grump5: sudo aptitude install gstreamer-plugins-ugly
[12:15] <mneptok> addictedtothenet:
[12:15] <mneptok> }
[12:15] <mneptok> $HTTP["host"]  =~ "blah\.blah\.com" {
[12:15] <mneptok> server.document-root = "/var/www/html/blah/"
[12:15] <mneptok> }
[12:16] <addictedtothenet> allright.. so using the lighttpd.conf i can make the dir's for certain domains to be the actuall user's home dirs and then use ssh to allow only those users
[12:16] <_EXP> which would be better for ltsp server: 2x3GHz Xeon FSB800 or 2x3GHz Xeon dual core FSB677
[12:17] <funpop> is a low-latency kernel improving only things like sound recording or also performance of desktop-work ?
[12:17] <teeL> !diskmounter
[12:17] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse
[12:17] <addictedtothenet> hey how do i prevent the rsa key from being auto accepted.. like when i tried to ssh to my server from another site the only thing that stopped me was the router firewall. how can i make it so only a certain key works.. so that not just anyone can connect to the sshe
[12:18] <edward_> I want to have software to make my computer into a bittorrent tracker
[12:18] <edward_> Cant find any
[12:18] <mr_grump5> mneptok:it says cannot find gstreamer-plugins-ugly
[12:18] <momal> cpk1: it says double layer and says it has 2 layers.. and I switch the size to 8.0gb from 4.4gb, but it says can't add files over 4gb when i try to add them >_<
[12:19] <momal> What can burn files larger then 4gb on dual layer dvds? Seems k3b wont let me even after changing it to udf.. and nero for linux just freezes changing it to udf.
[12:19] <gus> gnomebaker momal ?
[12:20] <momal> gus: thanks will try it out
[12:21] <sap> I just installed phpsysinfo but whenever i go to the web page i dont see the display only an option to save the phtml file what is going on?
[12:21] <nowhere> mneptok: Hi again, I have now installed edgy, took care of all updates + network-manager and rebooted. It so far only seems to detect my wired connection.
[12:22] <addictedtothenet> is there a ssh channel?
[12:22] <shinobi2> anyone know if knoppix 5.1 have shred ?
[12:22] <addictedtothenet> and thanks for the help.. it made me realize what i need to do
[12:22] <funpop> how do i start the network manager from the terminal ?
[12:22] <kingcobra> are there any ubuntu experts here
[12:22] <pseudoroot> mr_grump5:   you need repository for restricted formats enabled for 'gstreamer-plugins-ugly'
[12:23] <nowhere> sudo nm-applet if i'm correct
[12:23] <momal> gus: damn.. it doesn't want to add files bigger then 4gb >_<
[12:23] <funpop> yes you are thanks
[12:23] <gus> jeje
[12:23] <funpop> and how do i kill it again ?

[12:24] <sap> I just installed phpsysinfo but whenever i go to the web page i dont see the display only an option to save the phtml file what is going on?
[12:24] <pseudoroot> mr_grump5:   does avi play from hard drive?
[12:24] <nowhere> sap: sounds like a question more suited for #apache
[12:25] <kingcobra> nowhere can i ask u a question
[12:26] <nowhere> kingcobra: sure, but I might not know the answer..
[12:26] <mr_grump5> pseudoroot:i could play some divx cd's..but those created with infra recorder  cannot b played..
[12:27] <mr_grump5> pseudoroot:it plays on xp..
[12:27] <kingcobra> when i install edgy, it keeps freezing at 30% r so
[12:27] <kingcobra> each time it gets a little farther
[12:27] <kingcobra> ive done it 5 r 6 times now
[12:27] <kingcobra> its got to about 50% now
[12:27] <Dextorion> kingcobra: Try the alternate install cd
[12:27] <pseudoroot> mr_grump5:   did you try to copy to hdd first?
[12:28] <techie1> good morning all.
[12:28] <nowhere> hmmm that sucks... but... I use Ubuntu for three days.
[12:28] <Dextorion> kingcobra: the graphical install disk seams to have issues at times.
[12:28] <kingcobra> what is the difference
[12:28] <Dextorion> kingcobra: its in text mode.
[12:28] <lorenz_> hello guys
[12:28] <nowhere> hi there lorenz_
[12:28] <Dextorion> hi lorenz_
[12:28] <lorenz_> anyone there who could help me with an overheating issue?
[12:28] <M_Fatih> hey
[12:28] <mr_grump5> pseudoroot:it says i don't have permission to do so
[12:28] <nowhere> only if you inform us about the issue lorenz_
[12:28] <kingcobra> what do u mean text mode
[12:29] <lorenz_> @nowhere - I'm running edgy on a ibm t60 - the laptop seems to run very hot
[12:29] <lorenz_> and I am not sure if the fan is working properly
[12:29] <seshomaru> hi - qtparted wont let me resize my /home partition , what gives?
[12:29] <lorenz_> is there a method to check the temperature
[12:29] <Dextorion> kingcobra: uhm.. as in no fancy desktop graphics to install from.
[12:29] <lorenz_> or to check the fan?
[12:29] <techie1> still "planning" my ubuntu install.  I have a 55.8g with 24.10 space. Windows xp is partitioned in FAT32. I want to do a dual boot Ubuntu and Windowsxp. What's the best partition program or way to do so before installing Ubuntu?
[12:29] <fnf> GNOME automatically puts links to local mounted partitions in the "Computer" directory. I made a new partition and it did not show a new link, does anyone know how to update them ?
[12:30] <lorenz_> did my problem description come through?
[12:30] <seshomaru> fnf - did you mount the partitions?
[12:30] <pseudoroot> mr_grump5:   ok : permissions for cdrom isn't something I can help with : sorry
[12:30] <marshcast_> I'm having problems using ssh to get into a machine from a remote address, is there a gui (or any other way) to allow remote logins? I been serching but cant find anything that works. - I'm able to ssh into other machines, but cant get into this one - port forwarding is set to 192.168.0.2 on my router but I'm getting 'connection refused' in my term
[12:30] <techie1> I would like to allocate half of my free space 12 gig to each
[12:30] <fnf> seshomaru: Sure, and I've actually been wondering where GNOME store the links or the configs.
[12:31] <marshcast_> can anyone offer any advice?
[12:31] <kingcobra> Dextorion: u mean the installer only has no graphics but it will install a normal version with gui
[12:31] <DarthLappy> techie1: As long as there is the free space there, you'll be able to use the Ubuntu installer to partition your drive.
[12:31] <Vivid-DE> Hey Everybody
[12:31] <joelliot> lorenz ,,, try ksensors.. it gives temperature
[12:31] <gioacchino> hello

which program does Ubuntu uses for that. I thought I had to repartition first before adding Ubuntu.
[12:32] <fnf> seshomaru: I've installed Ubuntu Edgy several times for my friends, a couple of time GNOME does not show all available local partitions and I have no idea.
[12:32] <marshcast_> to get in, jatt? no - i will though (thast's just what i'm after - thanks jatt

[12:32] <Dextorion> kingcobra: might have to install the package ubuntu-desktop.   Im not sure.  I would read upon that first off.
[12:32] <edward_> I need to host a bit torrent tracker on my ocmputer
[12:32] <edward_> How do I do that
[12:33] <teeL> When i tried to mount a partition with diskmounter it said: "No usable windows/mac partitions found". Does it matter which filesystem i use?
[12:33] <seshomaru> fnf - ext3 partitions?
[12:33] <fnf> seshomaru: On the other hand, do you know how to make one or some links /vanished/ ?
keep in mind that now out of my 55.8 gig 30 or so already have been used by xp pro. I need to do a one hardrive dualbott and repartition my drive to accomodate ubuntu
[12:33] <fnf> seshomaru: Linux is not new to me, all that stuff I've checked.
[12:34] <seshomaru> fnf sorry
[12:34] <mr_grump5> any 1 http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7776/
[12:34] <fnf> seshomaru: Thanks anyway.
[12:34] <marshcast_> jatt - it says it's refused at the router, but I've set port forwardiong on port 22 to 192.168.0.2 (the hard wired box I'm chatting from now) - am confused. is there anything else i should do on the router?
[12:34] <lorenz_> guys, I need your help with me ibm t60 - it seems to run hot, I cannot access the sensors using lm-sensors or ksensors!
[12:34] <seshomaru> fnf i use dapper and never had a problem...
[12:35] <marshcast_> jatt - can you see my ip address from there? do I have the right one? I'm not doing anything stupid am I?
[12:35] <metal03> hi everyone!  How do I empty trash as root? (Stuff in it can't be deleted)
[12:36] <pseudoroot> teeL:   it shouldn't matter - what does "df -h" say? ... paste output to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[12:36] <fnf> seshomaru: I just tried the Desktop version of Feisty, this sounds like a GNOME's bug. Anyway, I haven't understood how/where GNOME stores those settings. They don't seem to be in gconf.
[12:36] <mr_grump5> need help withe respect to permissions for accessing cd's
[12:36] <fnf> seshomaru: I only used the server versions so far.
[12:36] <lorenz_> please anyone help: how can I check the temperatur on my laptop
[12:36] <lorenz_> lm-sensors and ksensors won't work
[12:37] <knoppix> #stophiphop
[12:37] <costal79> Hello everybody
[12:37] <Dextorion> kingcobra: but thats afterwards anyway.  You can install alternate cd first, and get a gnome desktop to work from.
[12:37] <hjmills> how do i mount a fat 32 windows partition from a usb hard drive as writeable
[12:37] <seshomaru> fnf good luck , im actually trying to get away from ubuntu , not stable enough for me..
[12:37] <costal79> I'm looking for some software to design databases and generate sql code from the application like visio or DataArquitect also the software should run over linux
[12:37] <costal79> do you know some software ?
[12:38] <kingcobra> ok thanx very much dex
[12:38] <costal79> dia it's very limited
[12:38] <Dextorion> kingcobra: your welcome.
[12:38] <teeL> pseudoroot: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7780/
[12:38] <grindar> can anyone help me with libpcap? the repositories only go up to 0.8 and I followed directions to configure and make 0.9.4, but it doesn't seem to be working...
[12:38] <costal79> and also I've checked many other software and I can't find a nice solution
[12:38] <thomax> costal79: sqlcode maybe with phpmyadmin?
[12:38] <marshcast> can anyone teel me if I have to do anything more than set port forwarding on port 22 to my server to get an ssh connection?
[12:38] <gioacchino> help me please I have a big problem with samba server!
[12:39] <kingcobra> sesho: what are u tryin 2 get into instead
[12:39] <fnf> seshomaru: The apps might not be stable since they're updated quite frequently. But the kernel is rock solid, and all Linux distros are all as stable as each other.
[12:39] <lorenz_> help! laptop overheats - how can I check temp?
[12:39] <costal79> yep but I'm looking some software like Visio I have to design a very big database and it easier if I can see the tables and the relationship
[12:39] <hjmills> lorenz_, just run a hoover over the vents
[12:39] <costal79> but I don't want to use Visio or another software in windows
[12:39] <fnf> seshomaru: Unless you're mentioning the desktop versions, which have been patched.
[12:39] <pseudoroot> teeL:   you have one hard drive? how many partitions / what filesystems?
[12:40] <mr_grump5> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7776/
[12:40] <lorenz_> hjmills, that's not it
[12:40] <lorenz_> it's brand new, worked 3 days ago under windows
[12:40] <nowhere> I'm trying to folow this howto ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo ) for getting my wireless working, Under Edgy it wants me to set "wpa-driver madwifi" where I have to replace madwifi with my own driver and interface. I'm using Linksys WMP54G V4 (rt2500), what do I put in?
[12:40] <seshomaru> fnf -desktop yes  and for me its the aps that count so i'm going debian..
[12:40] <marshcast> and is the port forwarding under the 'firewll rules'? or should I set it up under 'services'?
[12:41] <fnf> seshomaru: Fair enough :) some people prefer living in the edge though.
[12:41] <lorenz_> any other suggestions how to check if the fan works?
[12:41] <lorenz_> ksensors and lm-sensors give me errors!
[12:41] <teeL> pseudoroot: Yeah, one harddrive. 3 Partitions. 2 ext3 and one linux-swap. The problem is that i dont know how to mount it =p
[12:41] <seshomaru> fnf i lived on the edge when i was 16....good luck with your gnome problem,,,,,,
[12:42] <ToXedVirus> i formatted a partition, put an entry into fstab, the mounting of the partitions works, but no icon appears on the desktop (gnome user)... does anyone know, where i have to add some 'configurations' so that the icon would appear on the desktop?
[12:42] <grindar> ah well, guess I'll try again later. Getting off work :)
[12:42] <fnf> seshomaru: Not quite a problem if I knew where the setting is stored. That's becoming irritating though.
[12:42] <lorenz_> I'm gonna have to ask again - no one knows how I can check if my fan works?
[12:42] <lorenz_> not just by looking
[12:42] <fnf> seshomaru: The last resort would be digging the code.
[12:42] <lorenz_> in the laptop
[12:43] <grindar> wait for it to definitely overheat and listen for it?
[12:43] <M_Fatih> i have a big problem with my X, i can login with root but i cant login with any user, http://paste.linux-sevenler.org/index.php?id=421 this is my xorg log.. i can't understand this :( i tried to dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg.. and it not worked..
[12:43] <lorenz_> nothing better I can do?
[12:43] <costal79> If your fan is not working probably the lap is going to be freeze after a few minutes of turn on
[12:44] <rael> hi, can someone please tell me what e-mail program I would need to set up a hotmail account through?
[12:44] <grindar> my lappy doesn't have an internal sensor that I know of, except for the freezing.
[12:44] <IdleOne> rael, you have evolutiom installed by default
[12:44] <costal79> with any user ? even with a new user recently added ?
[12:45] <IdleOne> evolution
[12:45] <pseudoroot> teeL:   what version of ubuntu?
[12:45] <rael> yes i do...
[12:45] <teeL> pseudoroot: 6.10. I installed it today
[12:45] <marshcast> no-one can help me a little with a router/ssh problem? I'm sure it's an easy one! I've set port forwarding on my router, but ssh -v saysConnection-refused at 213.48.21.251 - and that is definately the right address?!
[12:45] <rael> but how do i link that to my hotmail account?
[12:46] <costal79> I think that your fan is damaged
[12:46] <rael> cause in outlook you have an option for an "http" account,but in evolution you dont...
[12:46] <pseudoroot> teeL:   for some reason there is only one partition. detected .. "/dev/sda1" (nevermind swap for now) ... you can't mount a partition that isn't in /dev ... I'm not familiar with that problem, but searching for info
[12:46] <IdleOne> rael, not certain but probable something like Accounts>prefferences>new acount
[12:46] <marshcast> any offers will be greatly recieved as I'm just going round in circles with google & man pages (and a bit noob - so man pages are a bit confusing :(
[12:47] <rael> ye but it doesnt have the option i need, so i was wondering if anyone knew of a program that does...
[12:47] <teeL> pseudoroot: Hmm ok. I made the partition after i installed ubuntu if that have anything to say..
[12:47] <marshcast> any offers will be greatly recieved as I'm just going round in circles with google & man pages (and a bit noob - so man pages are a bit confusing :(
[12:47] <prem> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7776/  any one??
[12:47] <IdleOne> rael, gmail lets you check mail from other services
[12:48] <rael> so does yahoo, but i have a hotmail account and cant afford to change it
[12:48] <bimberi> !hotway | rael
[12:48] <ubotu> rael: hotway: pop3 to Hotmail (HTTPmail) gateway. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:0.8.4-1 (edgy), package size 48 kB, installed size 176 kB
[12:48] <costal79> could you explain a little more about your problem marshcast ?
[12:49] <rael> hotway?
[12:49] <prem> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7776/
[12:50] <costal79> very nice program
[12:50] <rael> how do i use hotway?
[12:50] <pseudoroot> teeL:  yes. have you rebooted since adding it/
[12:50] <IdleOne> rael, istall hotway using synaptic
[12:50] <IdleOne> install
[12:50] <IdleOne> errrr changing keyboard this thing is making me crazy
[12:51] <teeL> pseudoroot: No =p
[12:51] <IdleOne> there 
[12:51] <pseudoroot> teeL:   maybe you should try that first... then it might be auto detected and give you somehting to mount
[12:51] <rael> is there a site i can go to with instructions to do that?
[12:52] <marshcast> costal79, - I'm trying to ssh into a machine - can get into other machines, but am unable to make a connection to this one. I'm trying to get in accross the web to lounge@213.48.21.251, but the 'connection refused' message is coming up. if I -v then it says it's at 213.48.21.251, which leads me to believe it's the router. Port forwarding is set, however, to 192.168.0.2 (the server), but I cant get through...
[12:52] <costal79> hotway + ubuntu in google
[12:52] <costal79> the first page
[12:52] <qos> hey guys ...
[12:52] <teeL> pseudoroot: Ok, ill try now =)
[12:52] <pseudoroot> teeL:   :)
[12:52] <marshcast> costal79, I'm after finding out what else I could/should set to get past the router or even to find out if my thoughts are correct and it is the router..?
[12:53] <qos> there is a console command which always returns 3 lines ... but i only want to save the last line in a variable. how to do this via bash?
[12:53] <marshcast> costal79, am running edgy on both machines
[12:53] <IdleOne> rael, are you using ubuntu? go to Systems>Administration>Synaptic Package manager , search for hotway and install it ( if you dont see it in there you need to enable Universe ) COME BACK HERE AND TYPE !UNIVERSE AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS UBOTU GIVES YOU
[12:53] <costal79> sorry :P
[12:53] <IdleOne> sorry caps
[12:53] <Jego_Off375> hello @all
[12:54] <rael> thanks so much...
[12:54] <rael> will try that
[12:54] <epignosis> I just checked for upgrades with the upgrade manager and got the following message:
[12:54] <epignosis> Not all updates can be installed. Run a distribution upgrade, to install as many updates as possible. This can be caused by an uncompleted upgrade, unofficial software packages, or by running a development version. I have been running 7.04 for a week now
[12:54] <bimberi> qos: something like:   var = "`command | tail -1`"
[12:55] <qos> bimberi, thanks will try it :)
[12:55] <Repelstiltje> could anyone recommend an USB external hard drive that works good on both windows and ubuntu?
[12:55] <IdleOne> epignosis, sudo aptitude dist-upgrade see what it gives you
[12:55] <rulus> Repelstiltje: every hard drive will work with ubuntu
[12:55] <costal79> marshcast do you have something like this ? ComputerA ---ssh --> Internet <---ComputerB--- ?
[12:55] <Repelstiltje> k, thanks
[12:55] <ToXedVirus> ok thanks for the help, a reboot has solved my problem, pretty WINDOWS LIKE
[12:56] <costal79> Where are you put the forward rule to the port 22 ?
[12:57] <teeL> pseudoroot: Its still the same. In information it says: Status: Not mounted
[12:57] <epignosis> thanks, i think its doing the upgrades
[12:57] <IdleOne> np
[12:57] <marshcast> costal79, i'm not sure - I'd say i'm trying to A---ssh --> Internet --> router--> B - but I could be splitting hairs there...
[12:57] <epignosis> thanks IdleOne
[12:57] <IdleOne> epignosis, your welcome
[12:58] <pseudoroot> teeL:   you now have "/dev/sda2" or similar?
[12:58] <costal79> are you tried a $telnet 213.48.21.251 22 ?
[12:58] <costal79> just to know it the port it's open
[12:58] <pseudoroot> teeL:   in /dev ...
[12:58] <marshcast> costal79, ssh -v says 213.48.21.251 port 22: connection refused. i take it that means it's getting stopped at the router just before B?

[01:15] <waspius> hello.does someone know how i can configure my touchpad so that scrolling can work and that tapping works??
[01:15] <marshcast> costal79, I have noticed that, although the router is set to log any port 22 forwarding, there are no log entries saying that it was dropped (or any other entries approriate)...
[01:16] <marshcast> costal79, could that mean it's my provider?
[01:17] <waspius> anyone?
[01:17] <steel_lady> please I need help to resolve some small things and nobody is paying attention to me!
[01:17] <costal79> I don't think so
[01:17] <costal79> let's try this
[01:18] <Toma-> steel_lady: whats up?
[01:18] <costal79> configure instead a forwarding rule
[01:18] <costal79> a dmz server
[01:18] <costal79> in your modem
[01:18] <stratusfear> what's your problem steel_lady?
[01:18] <nowhere> how can i extract an .exe file with ubuntu?
[01:18] <Toma-> nowhere: if its a zip/exe you can use unzip
[01:18] <gordonjcp> nowhere: depends what it's compressed with
[01:18] <costal79> Main Menu--> Advanced --> Wan Setup link
[01:18] <gordonjcp> nowhere: as Toma- says, it might be a zip.  It might also be an lha
[01:19] <costal79> Select the default DMZ Server
[01:19] <nowhere> gordonjcp: I have no idea, it's a driver, need .inf file out of it for ndiswrapper.
[01:19] <costal79> Then put the ip address of your server
[01:19] <steel_lady> Toma- 2 small things: first I accidentaly did chmod 777 in root instead in a folder so it is complaining about home permissions upon login. second. I nstalled nedit and it is not on the menu
[01:19] <costal79> click apply and reboot the modem
[01:19] <gordonjcp> nowhere: try zip first
[01:19] <marshcast> costal79, - sounds complicated... go on - oh - I'm adsl - could that be a problem?
[01:19] <costal79> it's very easy
[01:19] <pseudoroot> add to fstab: "/dev/sda3 /media/<the-name-you-gave> ext3 auto defaults 0 1"
[01:19] <nowhere> gordonjcp: Open with other application? And then?
[01:19] <pseudoroot> teeL:    ^
[01:19] <Xif> Any recommended distributed shell for Ubuntu?
[01:20] <gordonjcp> nowhere: I don't know what you mean
[01:20] <marshcast> costal79, dmz? i cant find any dmz reference in the modem/router
[01:20] <teeL> pseudoroot: ok, lets see
[01:20] <nowhere> gordonjcp: Well there is an unpacker available no?
[01:20] <Toma-> steel_lady: are you using gnome?
[01:20] <costal79> under the Main Menu
[01:20] <steel_lady> Toma- yes
[01:20] <gordonjcp> nowhere: uhm, you could save it and unzip it
[01:20] <costal79> under Advanced
[01:20] <costal79> click the Wan Setup link
[01:20] <nowhere> gordonjcp: Ok, how do I unzip it?
[01:21] <pseudoroot> teeL:   make that "/dev/sda3 /media/<the-name-you-gave> ext3 auto defaults 0 2"
[01:21] <gordonjcp> nowhere: you probably want someone who knows specifically Ubuntu better than I do for the "nice" way, but I usually just use unzip FILE at the command line
[01:21] <nowhere> ok thanks gordonjcp, will try
[01:21] <gordonjcp> you could put it on the desktop and try double-clicking it, a file extractor should have a go at it
[01:21] <pseudoroot> teeL:    after editing, save fstab, then > "sudo mount -a"
[01:21] <nowhere> gordonjcp: No it gives just cannot open error..
[01:22] <hadi> hi
[01:22] <Toma-> steel_lady: i think youll want 222 for /root, and you can add menu items with alacarte i think
[01:22] <nowhere> gordonjcp: Or I rename it to .zip?
[01:22] <gordonjcp> nowhere: try it
[01:22] <nowhere> no that didn't work
[01:22] <steel_lady> Toma- I am blonde, how to set it for home and root and what is alacarte?
[01:22] <stratusfear> nowhere what are you trying to install
[01:22] <stratusfear> ?
[01:23] <marshcast> costal79, ok found it - the server being the hardwired machine, i take it...
[01:23] <costal79> you should put the ip address 192.168.something
[01:23] <nowhere> stratusfear: Trying to get wireless network running for three days now... Giving ndiswrapper a go... Gordonjcp: the unzip command worked, I got the .inf file I needed :)
[01:24] <Toma-> steel_lady: i dont care if youre blonde or bald :) do you change the permissions recursivly? as in 'chmod -r' ???
[01:24] <almimoni> any body know program better than istanbul, teel me.
[01:24] <steel_lady> Toma- I did it recursively
[01:24] <Toma-> steel_lady: damn.
[01:25] <zumbi77> need some help with the multimedia codecs. Installed everything according to ubuntuguide.org, but there are still some videos I can't see. Any ideas?

[01:25] <nowhere> I'm really unhappy with my wireless network card, it has cost me a lot and it's a paint or maybe even impossible to use with Ubuntu and WPA...
[01:25] <costal79> perhaps you can use automatix
[01:26] <steel_lady> Toma- actually I am not sure if I did that in root or only in my home
[01:26] <steel_lady> it can be only in home
[01:26] <costal79> so whats up marshcast ?
[01:26] <pseudoroot> still there teeL ?
[01:27] <Toma-> steel_lady: ok, well you didnt change any ownership stuff did you?
[01:27] <teeL> pseudoroot: I have to be root to save it. But when i try to login as root it says: System administrator is not allowed to login from this screen
[01:27] <marshcast> costal79, am still looking for the reboot modem button!! (feel pretty useless :/
[01:27] <marshcast> power cable should do it, eh costal79 ?
[01:28] <pseudoroot> teeL:   "gksudo gedit /etc/fstab" should ask for password and allow you root access
[01:28] <Toma-> steel_lady: in anycase, you should have 'chmod -r 755 /home/dir'
[01:28] <costal79> jajajajajjaja
[01:28] <zumbi77> Ubotu - thanks for the advice. But I think all the packages are installed. I'm wondering if there is a problem with the way firefox handles them. Do I need to configure something?
[01:28] <jo_> Toma-: just want to thank you for the hint of yesterday to set echo 1024..blabla..max-user-freq,,,i set this in syscftl and compiled mplayer and now dvd-playback is nice, thanks for your inspiration, ciao
[01:28] <costal79> so ?
[01:28] <costal79> so ?
[01:28] <costal79> so ?
[01:28] <Toma-> jo_: good stuff :)
[01:28] <stratusfear> nowhere what wireless network card do you got?
[01:29] <Toma-> costal79: would you please stop spamming?
[01:29] <coolbone> <-- n00b
[01:29] <nowhere> stratusfear: it's a linksys wmp54g / rt2500
[01:29] <steel_lady> Toma- if I do it now, will it have unwanted effect over some files? and how to execute nedit?
[01:29] <qos> exit
[01:29] <stratusfear> nowhere ok
[01:29] <IdleOne> hello coolbone
[01:29] <coolbone> hi :)
[01:30] <coolbone> so, i was in wallmart a couple weeks ago... and crossed paths with an old friend...
[01:30] <Toma-> steel_lady: lets sort the big problem before nedit. and yes, itll make your executables in /home not run. BUT you shouldnt really have anything executable in there anyway
[01:30] <coolbone> we got to talkin about computers and the topic of linux came up... and he says 'you should try out ubuntu'

[01:32] <IdleOne> !lamp | coolbone
[01:32] <ubotu> coolbone: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[01:32] <teeL> pseudoroot: I have done that too..

[01:34] <nowhere> jo_: No, it only sits there showing the wired connection. No option for creating a new one like it did with 6.0.6.

[01:42] <costal79> marshcast
[01:42] <marshcast> costal79,
[01:42] <costal79> is it working
[01:42] <costal79> right know
[01:42] <costal79> because I can reach and connect to your server
[01:42] <A-L-A-R-M> hello. does the deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy-security main restricted universe multiverse (repo) include also deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy-security main restricted . or they are 2 completely different things ?
[01:42] <Toma-> steel_lady: whats the error?
[01:42] <zyth> Zero9983, I dont freaking know.  Thats wwhy I was asking on here if anyone could dl from adobe, so I could see if it was adobe or my net connection
[01:42] <marshcast> costal79, no - cannot get a connection - but can with ssh 127.0.0.1
[01:42] <costal79> 213.48.21.251
[01:42] <A-L-A-R-M> i mean, would the 'restricted' exclude some packages ?
[01:42] <costal79> this is your ip address ?
[01:43] <marshcast> costal79, from this server ssh 213.48.21.251 fails - connection refused :(
[01:43] <steel_lady> Toma- no error just no effect. maybe something is wrong with installation, I didn't still to manage to run it anyhow
[01:43] <costal79> the server is answer SSH 2.) Debian5Ubuntu1
[01:43] <Toma-> zyth: sadly, that package can only download from adobe. its their crappy EULA in all its glory
[01:43] <marshcast> yep. thats what the router tells me - and xchat tells me too
[01:43] <IdleOne> zyth, it is probably adobe wait a couple hours then try again
[01:43] <marshcast> yep. thats what the router tells me - and xchat tells me too, costal79
[01:43] <costal79> it is working
[01:43] <Toma-> steel_lady: try running it from a terminal. (applications > acessories > terminal)
[01:43] <costal79> there is something else but in the another side
[01:43] <edward_> Can some 1 ping  24.202.252.160 and tell me the results?
[01:44] <costal79> if you want to check it
[01:44] <costal79> perhaps you can give a temporal account in your server
[01:44] <marshcast> costal79, and ifconfig tells me I'm connected to 192.168.0.1 - and thats the address I put in the dmz entry in WAN settings
[01:44] <costal79> and I'll show you that i can connect
[01:44] <costal79> it is working
[01:44] <marshcast> costal79, you can get in?
[01:44] <Toma-> zyth: if you must... http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/
[01:45] <costal79> i can see the SSH service
[01:45] <pseudoroot> teeL:   see if this gives a verbose error message: "sudo mount ext3 /dev/sda3 /media/data"
[01:45] <gioacchino> cna you trasfer to me a working samba.conf ??
[01:45] <costal79> of course i can't connect because I don't have a user in your server
[01:45] <walrus> how do i know my env variables on ubuntu ??
[01:45] <marshcast> costal79, i can't >:(
[01:45] <Toma-> zyth: just install it with your user to .mozilla/plugins/
[01:45] <nowhere> jo_: I could put my router back on WEP and see if from there we can find out more?
[01:45] <jo_> nowhere: the strange thing is: before i had lots of trouble and nothing worked, so i installed my system from the scratch, now i have it running without problems also installation was 1a... but i'm sure there is a normal way of doing this...
[01:45] <steel_lady> Toma- I suppose I have to find first where is it installed
[01:45] <Toma-> walrus: type 'env'
[01:45] <marshcast> costal79,  but it is telling me it'srefused on the way in
[01:45] <pseudoroot> teeL:   or rather "sudo mount /dev/sda3 /media/data"
[01:46] <Toma-> steel_lady: you didnt install it with apt-get or synaptic?
[01:46] <jo_> nowhere: yeah, give it a try
[01:46] <costal79> what are you doing ?
[01:46] <steel_lady> Toma- through synaptic
[01:46] <nowhere> jo_: Yeah but I have reinstalled ubuntu 4 times now to clean up the mess and start over with the next guide :)
[01:46] <marshcast> costal79, I'm trying to ssh to this server. but no joy

[02:01] <nowhere> jo_: Using WEP now.
[02:01] <_Rappy_> Pici: thank you :)
[02:01] <jo_> nowhere: aha
[02:02] <mr_grump5> anyone?i get the following error when i try open a contents of a cd "Could not open location; You may not have permission to open the file."
[02:02] <jo_> nowhere: wep over network-manager?
[02:02] <nowhere> jo_: I try to use the networking, worked with dapper.
[02:02] <nowhere> jo_: Seems like things got worse after upgrading :D
[02:03] <Zero9983> Toma-: .cpkg: cannot execute binary file
[02:03] <jo_> nowhere: aha, you did upgrade or fresh install to 6.10? thats a very important point/question
[02:03] <nowhere> fresh
[02:03] <Zero9983> Toma-: sh filename.cpkg ?
[02:03] <jo_> nowhere: ok
[02:03] <Toma-> Zero9983: ok well i have no idea. try googling "coolpackage" on how to open it.
[02:03] <Toma-> Zero9983: yeh thats what i said...
[02:04] <Zero9983> Toma-: ok i try
[02:04] <nowhere> jo_: I'm going to disable the wired connections for a bit. And see if that does anything.
[02:04] <jo_> nowhere: what i still dont understand from your answer, do you connect to wep via system>admin>networking or simply through n.m.?
[02:05] <nowhere> with dapper I used the networking, at a later stage after installing nm it also detected the connection, but I couldn't pick WPA encrtyption.
[02:06] <jo_> nowhere: and now?
[02:06] <nowhere> it seems like it can't even connect to the router ow.
[02:06] <mr_grump5> could any one help with changing the acess permission of a cdrom??
[02:07] <zyth> mr_grump5, did you manually mount it?
[02:07] <jo_> nowhere: try this:(quite unelegant): unplug network cable, reboot os, wait till n.m.-applet comes up, try explicit there to connect to wep, if this works, u made one good step, from there it should be possible to arrange the wpa thing,
[02:07] <drin> Whooohoooo!
[02:08] <coolspot> hi all
[02:08] <mr_grump5> zyth:the cd's usually gets automatically mounted..where as some cd's refuses to play eventhough cdrom is mounted
[02:08] <nowhere> jo_: nm doesn't give me an option to make a connection.
[02:09] <stratusfear> mr_grump5 on /media/cdrom
[02:10] <coolspot> i make this command to try configure lirc "/usr/sbin/lircd -H dev/input -d /dev/input/event1"  how can i remove?
[02:10] <jo_> nowhere: that sounds familiar to me, but when did u fresh install, today? 2 days ago? did you compiled in the meantime anything??
[02:10] <nowhere> about an hour ago
[02:10] <mr_grump5> stratusfear:i could see the contents of the cd..when i try to open it says permission denied
[02:11] <nowhere> have done the updates and since then only tried to get wireless up
[02:11] <mr_grump5> stratusfear:i can't even copy the contents of the cd..it says i don't have permission to read
[02:12] <stratusfear> mr_grump5 try to do it like su
[02:12] <nowhere> But maybe ubuntu is just not for me, or for my hardware..
[02:13] <jo_> nowhere: open terminal and type: iwlist eth0 scan | grep ESSID     what do you see?
[02:13] <mr_grump5> stratusfear:how??am a newbie
[02:13] <surface> is this "MPEG ADTS, layer III, v1, 128 kBits, 44.1 kHz, JntStereo" mp3 format?
[02:14] <jo_> nowhere: ubuntu is fine, it needs just adjusting and geduld
[02:14] <mr_grump5> stratusfear:i could play some cd's without any fuzz and copy the contents..
[02:14] <nowhere> Yes but on dutch forums I found two others with same WMP54G and no networking :)
[02:14] <nowhere> output is: sjoerd@xp2800:~$ iwlist ra0 scan | grep ESSID
[02:14] <nowhere>                     ESSID:"InternetPlusBellen"
[02:15] <stratusfear> mr_grump5 ok
[02:15] <jo_> nowhere: if ra0 is your wifi-card this means that your card is working
[02:15] <stratusfear> mr_grump5 go to the terminal or shell and go to /media/cdrom like super usuario
[02:16] <stratusfear> mr_grump5 you will get all the permission
[02:16] <nowhere> jo_: But I also filled out the ESSID under networking, isn't that just what it's showing?
[02:17] <mr_grump5> stratusfear:r u saying to go to /media/cdrom as root?
[02:17] <coolspot> i make this command to try configure lirc "/usr/sbin/lircd -H dev/input -d /dev/input/event1"  how can i remove?
[02:17] <stratusfear> mr_grump5 yeah
[02:17] <MaximLevitsky> Today as it looks is unfortunate day for feisty and everybody who use and update it daily. Just ten minutes ago I did a update , and now system it totally broken. I think it is xorg updates, Now I can't launch any OpenGL program, even no glxinfo. xawtv, wine, glxgears, they all crash X. (I am using nvidia drivers). On top of that adept is now broken, as it crashes on boot, (so this is price of living on edge  ;-) )
[02:18] <steel_lady> Toma- are you here?
[02:18] <surface> is this "MPEG ADTS, layer III, v1, 128 kBits, 44.1 kHz, JntStereo" a mp3 format?
[02:18] <stratusfear> nowhere did you install the .sys file too?
[02:18] <IdleOne> MaximLevitsky, I am doing update on feisty now, will let you know how it goes
[02:18] <Juhaz> surface, yes
[02:18] <nowhere> jo_: The status screen at the router doesn't show any connections.
[02:18] <john> anywan who can help me with Amsn?
[02:19] <nowhere> stratusfear: What sys file?
[02:19] <MaximLevitsky> IdleOne, goog luck  ;-)
[02:19] <MaximLevitsky> goog/good
[02:19] <stratusfear> nowhere in the driver package
[02:19] <surface> Juhaz, but i try file on my mp3 it shows "MP3 file with ID3 version 2.3.0 tag"
[02:19] <nowhere> stratusfear: For ndiswrapper you mean?
[02:20] <jo_> nowhere: ESSSID is the name of networks, you can scan like that and than go to sys>adm>networking>wireless>fill in ESSID of choice and if wep needed fill in wep-nr,,,but ofcourse look if wep-hex or -ascii- or so... that works fro me,
[02:20] <OberonKing> hola gente!!
[02:20] <tlhiv> anyone here use gallery?
[02:20] <mr_grump5> stratusfear:no luck same error
[02:20] <tlhiv> is there a howto on getting it configured in Ubuntu?
[02:20] <tlhiv> i have gone so far as to get it installed with apt-get ... but that's about it
[02:21] <stratusfear> nowhere i installed the .inf and the .sys file for get my wifi-card working cause just the .inf installed it won't work but say that is installed
[02:21] <IdleOne> tlhiv, man gallery
[02:21] <nowhere> jo_: Yes I understand, but I filled it out myself under networking. Which might explain why it can show up without there being any connection at all?
[02:21] <tlhiv> IdleOne: i've tried that ;) no man page
[02:21] <nowhere> stratusfear: Ok thanks, let me try..
[02:21] <nowhere> stratusfear: What card do you have?
[02:21] <IdleOne> does it have a menu entry?
[02:21] <IdleOne> tlhiv,
[02:21] <stratusfear> nowhere wpc54g
[02:21] <tlhiv> i'm remote
[02:22] <tlhiv> like > 1000 miles remote
[02:22] <IdleOne> hmm dont know
[02:22] <IdleOne> tlhiv, road trip ! :P
[02:22] <tlhiv> no ... permenatnt
[02:22] <tlhiv> permenant
[02:22] <nowhere> stratusfear: It says it's not a valid .inf file.
[02:22] <IdleOne> tlhiv, I meant go on a raod trip and figure it out hehe
[02:23] <tlhiv> hehe
[02:23] <tlhiv> i don't think so ... it can be done remotely
[02:23] <IdleOne> tlhiv, try typing gallery see if it starts it up
[02:23] <tlhiv> it works in apache
[02:23] <mr_grump5> could anyone help in changing access permission of cdrom??
[02:23] <IdleOne> ohh then I dont know
[02:24] <MaximLevitsky> Too bad that there is no history of packages , and option to revert changes (I know , I can manually find package and then download it from a mirror, but this is difficult, for example now I am not sure whenever a xorg update or update of a x lib did that, wait...  I think I know the reason, I think apt overwrite nvidia drivers (I have installed then from nvidia package)
[02:24] <jo_> nowhere: i dont understand: what does not sjow connection? your n.m-applet, the wifi-card under terminla, the wifi-router?
[02:24] <Juhaz> surface, well, the other one doesn't have ID3 tag
[02:24] <nowhere> jo_: I logged in to the router, and checked if there are connections. It doesn't show any.
[02:24] <A-L-A-R-M> while adding a new repo. i get this error: gzip: stdin: not in gzip format.Err http://archive.ubuntu.com edgy/multiverse Sources.  Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1).

[02:24] <stratusfear> nowhere sorry u need to install the package bcm43xx-fwcutter first and run it with that one
[02:25] <A-L-A-R-M> after tryign to update
[02:25] <nowhere> jo_: Let's see what happens if I change the SSID to something stupid and then scan.
[02:25] <stratusfear> nowhere is bcm43xx-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware <file name>.sys
[02:26] <MaximLevitsky> I will try to reinstall them....
[02:26] <nowhere> ok stratusfear, let me try
[02:26] <valehru> hey guys, is there any way to redirect a specific domain eg. www.example.com to use a specific proxy server?
[02:26] <hjmills> which ntfs driver is the most reliable?
[02:26] <jo_> nowhere: ??  ESSID should be the result of scaning, nothing that you give!!
[02:27] <jo_> nowhere: but, i have to run now, don't give up, give it a break and look arround... i heard btw that feisty supports better wifi. you may encounter other problems there or not. my system works really great now, it takes a while but when its running its runnig fast and stable
[02:27] <hjmills> jo_, unless the network is not broadcasting and you know the essid already
[02:27] <mr_grump5> i did a cat /etc/group and the contents are at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7796/ could any help me in accessing the cd??
[02:27] <surface> Juhaz, i see
[02:27] <surface> thx
[02:27] <nowhere> ok, thanks for your help and time jo_ :) It's appreciated!
[02:27] <jo_> hjmills: right,

[02:28] <jo_> nowhere: dooeeeeiiiiii
[02:28] <nowhere> thanks :) Bye
[02:28] <hjmills> which ntfs driver is the most reliable, ntfs-3g or libntfs?
[02:28] <mr_grump5> stratusfear: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7796/  /etc/group contents  any help
[02:28] <k_keller> Hi! I have to use ubuntu alternate CD in order to install ubuntu on my toshiba m60 with ati radeon x700 at all. I was wondering if I have to perform special operations during the installation process with alternate cd?
[02:29] <jrib> k_keller: nope, not really.  Just follow the onscreen directions
[02:30] <k_keller> jrib: thank you
[02:30] <lonran> hi
[02:30] <k_keller> jrib: hope it will work because I tried to install ubuntu from DVD in the past 2 months but without success
[02:30] <IdleOne> hello lonran
[02:31] <lonran> how can i activate ssh?
[02:31] <jrib> !ssh | lonran
[02:31] <ubotu> lonran: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[02:32] <epignosi1> I am new to Linux, so was wondering if their is any need for installing an anti-virus in ubuntu
[02:32] <mr_grump5> could anyone help in changing access permission of cdrom??
[02:32] <valehru> lonran, sudo apt-get install ssh
[02:32] <zyth> pradeep, that file was corrupt, can you dcc it to me please?
[02:32] <valehru> lonran, then just open the ssh port on your firewall
[02:32] <mr_grump5> zyth:http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7796/
[02:32] <lonran> exactly, how do i open the port?
[02:32] <lonran> thats my qyestion
[02:33] <IdleOne> epignosi1, no real need but there is clamav in the repos ( synaptic )
[02:33] <valehru> lonran, then log in from another computer via: ssh -l username 192.168.1.100
[02:33] <turbostar> how to remove firefox ?
[02:33] <turbostar> anyone could help me?
[02:33] <Absolute0> can i easily update ubuntu to 6.10 after installing from the 5.10 cd?
[02:33] <valehru> lonran, install firestarter....and use it to open the ssh port
[02:33] <jrib> !upgrade  | Absolute0
[02:33] <ubotu> Absolute0: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[02:34] <valehru> lonran, sudo apt-get install firestarter
[02:34] <lonran> yes, ok
[02:34] <IdleOne> Absolute0, dont leepfrog versions go from 5.10 to 6.06 to 6.10
[02:34] <Absolute0> is there any net install that installs the latest version of ubuntu?
[02:34] <jrib> lonran: you only need to open the port if a) you closed it, possibly by installing firestarter or b) you have a router, in which case you'd need to check your router's documentation
[02:34] <M_Fatih> hey
[02:34] <ikonia_> Absolute0 you make the net ins tall
[02:34] <epignosi1> thanks IdleOne
[02:34] <stratusfear> valehru what is the ssh port?
[02:34] <Absolute0> how do i make it?
[02:34] <ikonia_> 23
[02:34] <ikonia_> Absolute0 using thecdim age
[02:34] <ikonia_> cd image
[02:34] <jrib> ssh is 22 by default
[02:35] <ikonia_> oops 22
[02:35] <ikonia_> not 23
[02:35] <ikonia_> sorry
[02:35] <ikonia_> typo
[02:35] <Absolute0> i can select from ftp?
[02:35] <Absolute0> instead of cd?
[02:35] <M_Fatih> some fonts sucked after dpkg-reconfigure --all i want to see antialiased for all my fonts
[02:35] <M_Fatih> how can i do that
[02:35] <ikonia_> Absolute0 no - ubuntu dosn't have a internet install routine that I'm aaware of
[02:35] <Absolute0> let me search google ;)
[02:35] <Absolute0> i am sure some dude made one
[02:35] <nowhere> stratusfear: Some troubles with the .sys file... bcm43xx-fwcutter -w ~/Desktop/rt2500.sys <- What am I doing wrong?
[02:35] <ikonia_> Absolute0 doubtful
[02:36] <ikonia_> Absolute0 but ther is net install functionality
[02:36] <ikonia_> just not internet
[02:36] <Absolute0> http://www.google.com/search?q=ubuntu+net+install&start=0&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:unofficial
[02:36] <valehru> stratusfear, http://www.iana.org/assignments/port-numbers there is a list of all port numbers.  ssh is 22 / tcp
[02:37] <ikonia_> Absolute0why do I want to see that search
[02:37] <stratusfear> nowhere bcm43xx-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware <file name>.sys
[02:37] <Absolute0> because you dont know how to use google!
[02:37] <Absolute0> :-D
[02:37] <Absolute0> joking..
[02:37] <ikonia_> Absolute0 I know how to use google fine
[02:37] <ikonia_> so why do I need to see that search
[02:37] <ikonia_> I know how to use net boot - so I don't need to search
[02:38] <Absolute0> ok mister know it all!
[02:38] <Absolute0> i give you my hand!
[02:38] <nowhere> Sorry, the input file is either wrong or not supported by bcm43xx-fwcutter. I can't find the MD5sum e2988349fe0567cbe4161cc653575a8e :(
[02:38] <M_Fatih> some fonts sucked after dpkg-reconfigure --all i want to see antialiased for all my fonts
[02:38] <ikonia_> I'm not a know it all. I just know how to use net boot
[02:38] <IdleOne> Absolute0, there is no official Ubuntu internet install if you want to use a iso that " some dude" put together then go right ahead but when your system is all borked and your bank account is dry dont come crying here 
[02:38] <finalbeta> just use the .sys from your orriginal cd, I did.
[02:38] <Absolute0> theres a net boot version of ubuntu?
[02:38] <ikonia_> Absolute0 I've said about 10 times you can setup netboot
[02:39] <ikonia_> IdleOne know it all........apartantly ;)
[02:39] <Absolute0> let me google ubuntu netboot
[02:39] <ikonia_> Absolute0 you can't do it over the internet though
[02:39] <IdleOne> ikonia, yes you are
[02:39] <IdleOne> :P lol
[02:39] <ikonia_> IdleOne aparantly we both are for being aware of net boot
[02:39] <Absolute0> IdleOne, you dont know the philosophy of linux if you such things!
[02:40] <geeksauce> can anyone recommend a good media player (like itunes) for  6.10?
[02:40] <ikonia_> ??
[02:40] <Absolute0> everything on linux is made by some dude!
[02:40] <Absolute0> gaim is made by some dude!
[02:40] <Toma-> i feel so filthy installling windows xp :| hitting F8 to a EULA makes me shiver. off to offtopic i go!
[02:40] <ikonia_> Absolute0 poor person
[02:40] <IdleOne> ikonia_, I dont know how to use netboot but I know that I dont want to install some iso that some dude put together
[02:40] <Absolute0> its not microsoft!
[02:40] <ikonia_> IdleOne agreed %150
[02:40] <finalbeta> A broken IDE connection caused a ext3 file system to become unrecognized. Any way to recover from this?
[02:40] <ikonia_> Absolute0 no-one said it is
[02:40] <IdleOne> Absolute0, I know the philosophy and psychology of humans
[02:40] <Absolute0> * you say such things
[02:40] <ikonia_> finalbeta is it damaged
[02:40] <DarkSun88> Hi
[02:41] <ikonia_> DarkSun88 hello
[02:41] <Absolute0> usually linux software such as net intsalls are safe
[02:41] <ikonia_> Absolute0 nope
[02:41] <Absolute0> never had a problem with it before
[02:41] <IdleOne> !offtopic | Absolute0
[02:41] <ubotu> Absolute0: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:41] <ikonia_> Absolute0 not when it is someones home gown project
[02:41] <ikonia_> IdleOne touche'
[02:41] <epignosi1> I am new to the linux world so pardon the ignorance, but I was wondering if there is an alternative to TCPView -http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/utilities/TcpView.mspx for Ubuntu.  I am familiar with the netstat command but was wondering if their is a GUI that would show me the running programs, port connected, state, protocol, remote address, etc
[02:41] <ikonia_> I like it
[02:41] <ikonia_> epignosi1 nettop may help
[02:42] <finalbeta> ikonia: the HD was in an internal removable case, I think one if the connection was starting to fail. The disks spinned down/up and made beeps, next reboot, the partition is unrecognized. Still the same size though. seems like not the whole table was cleared.
[02:42] <MaximLevitsky> Yes , that what it was , reinstalling nvidia drivers solved the problem , (adept still crashes, but this it not so important, I can use apt-get)
[02:42] <Toma-> epignosi1: i think gkrellm would have something like that. i suspect.
[02:42] <ikonia_> finalbeta not sure on that - sounds like the disk has a problem rather than the file system
[02:43] <qopi> .fonts
[02:43] <qopi> .fonts
[02:43] <ikonia_> we saw you the first time
[02:43] <finalbeta> ikonia: it's not the disk, it's the file system. Attaching the disk directly to the ide connector makes it run fine. Some corruption occurred
[02:43] <darrend_laptop> anyone know why there's no init.d script for iptables?  What's the recommended way of re-applying rules on startup?
[02:43] <ikonia_> the partition table is corrupt - that doesn't sound fine to me
[02:43] <finalbeta> !fonts
[02:43] <ubotu> Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[02:43] <dv5237> !test
[02:43] <ubotu> Failed.
[02:43] <dv5237> haha
[02:44] <dv5237> nice one
[02:44] <ikonia_> finalbeta what makes you think (or is the clue) that the file system is corrupted
[02:44] <_eMaX_> what do I have to do if a package is held back even in an apt-get dist-upgrade?
[02:44] <ikonia_> _eMaX_ read the message as to why its held back
[02:44] <linux_>  what about problem with desktop refresh in xubuntu?
[02:44] <_eMaX_> ikonia_ there is no message
[02:45] <ikonia_> _eMaX_ check the dpkg logs
[02:45] <_eMaX_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7801/
[02:46] <ikonia_> whats that
[02:46] <finalbeta> ikonia_: like I said, the disk was inside a HD removable case. the connectors of that failed, the disks spinned down and up made beeps etc. I think the power connector failed, but possible one of the print circuits caused data corruption. When attaching the disk directly to the internal ide cable, the disks runs fine. But the partition is now unrecognized.
[02:46] <geeksauce> anyone? good media player for ubuntu?
[02:46] <finalbeta> The connector problems caused corruption
[02:46] <luk3> hi could any of you nice people help me with a compiz problem?
[02:46] <ikonia_> finalbeta so your partition table is in trouble - not your file system
[02:46] <dyrne> !player | geeksauce  :)

[02:47] <ikonia_> luk3 you'll get good support in #ubuntu-effects
[02:47] <finalbeta> ikonia_: possibly, I can only hope so.
[02:47] <luk3> i have a s3 twister k graphics card and compiz is installed but when i run it it locks all my windows in place and does not let me run any of the effects?
[02:47] <finalbeta> ikonia_:  Can I force it back to ext3
[02:47] <luk3> noone is talking in ubuntu-effects
[02:47] <finalbeta> without a format of the data on it
[02:48] <mr_grump5> when i do ls -l it shows "lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2007-02-27 18:52 /dev/cdrom -> hdc" how to change permission to read the cd??
[02:48] <geeksauce> dyrne, i was hoping for a recommendation rather than a list of possible apps that can play various media formats.  i'm aware that they exist but i'd rather try one that someone can recommend rather than DL them all and try one by one
[02:49] <ikonia_> geeksaucegeeksaucefinalbeta the partition table has nothing to do with ext3
[02:49] <ikonia_> oops
[02:49] <gioacchino> how to share with samba a folder in a fat32 partition ?
[02:49] <MaximLevitsky> mr_grump5  , you already have them
[02:49] <ikonia_> finalbeta  the partition table has nothing to do with ext3
[02:49] <ikonia_> finalbeta show me the output of fdisk -l $devicefile

[02:50] <mr_grump5> MaximLevitsky:am already in the cdrom group..but still can't copy the contents to harddisk...any help?
[02:50] <MaximLevitsky> mr_grump5, sorry , forgot about that , symbolic links don't have permissions
[02:50] <MaximLevitsky> check permissions of /dev/hdc
[02:51] <MaximLevitsky> this it where your /dev/cdrom points
[02:51] <finalbeta> fdisk still shows the partition type as 83 (ext), but the os doesn't recognize it as such, same for gparted.
[02:51] <gioacchino> mmm
[02:51] <finalbeta> !paste

[02:52] <dyrne> geeksauce: well if youre in gnome id use a gtk based player. in kde qt. other than that i use mplayer and since im having some issues in it in feisty vlc. for mp3 i use xmms but its a little old fashioned i guess
[02:52] <ikonia_> finalbeta that partition looks fine
[02:53] <mr_grump5> brw-rw-rw- 1 root cdrom 22, 0 2007-02-27 18:52 /dev/hdc
[02:53] <finalbeta> ikonia_: gparted shows it as unrecognized.
[02:53] <steel_lady> does anyone have more experience with spreadsheet programs?
[02:53] <IdleOne> MaximLevitsky, update complete reboot required! here goes 
[02:53] <ikonia_> finalbeta well - try mounting it
[02:53] <mr_grump5> MaximLevitsky:brw-rw-rw- 1 root cdrom 22, 0 2007-02-27 18:52 /dev/hdc
[02:53] <geeksauce> dyrne, yeah i used to use xmms back in my mandrake days, but it never liked my onboard sound.  i'll give it a go again though.  i like the winamp feel of it.  thanks :)
[02:53] <finalbeta> ikonia_: what are the standard ext3 fix tools?
[02:54] <ikonia_> finalbeta before you worry about that - try moounting
[02:54] <ikonia_> try mountin it
[02:54] <ikonia_> mounting it

[02:55] <con-man> lololol
[02:55] <MaximLevitsky> mr_grump5 , I think permissions are fine (on my system I have brw-rw---- 1 root floppy 11, 0 2007-02-27 17:29 /dev/scd0 , and it works fine)
[02:55] <ikonia_> con-man why is that finny - you've just caused apam
[02:55] <orangefly> i suck at web design....is there anything similar to dreamweaver for ubuntu....???....
[02:56] <ikonia_> orangefly you could try scream
[02:56] <mr_grump5> MaximLevitsky:what abt this  rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2007-02-27 18:52 /dev/cdrom -> hdc
[02:56] <orangefly> ok....ty....
[02:56] <vincenz> This might be a bit OT, but I am not sure where else to ask.  Basically, I use screen a lot, but the problem is taht then you can't scroll backwards into the history ,any fixes for this?
[02:57] <ikonia_> finalbeta don't ever pm me again with a flood
[02:57] <ikonia_> finalbeta don't pm me without asking
[02:57] <MaximLevitsky> mr_grump5 , it is a symbolic link , and it is ok too
[02:57] <finalbeta> fine, i'll paste
[02:58] <MaximLevitsky> mr_grump5 , are you sure this is access problem , maybe it is somethink else (different drive, bad disk, ..etc)
[02:58] <finalbeta> ikonia_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7807/
[02:59] <mr_grump5> MaximLevitsky:i could play this  cd on xp..i can even play some divx cds on ubuntu
[02:59] <MaximLevitsky> somethink/something
[02:59] <Enselic``> Anyone have a clue what 'acc' in gud-rdebug-marker-acc could mean?
[02:59] <MaximLevitsky> mr_grump5 , so you can access /dev/hdc
[02:59] <MaximLevitsky> ?
[03:00] <ikonia_> finalbeta 2 questions 1.) why do you have an extended partition for thispartition, - why is it called hdb5 - what happened to hdb2,3,4 - have you tried to resize this partition at all
[03:00] <ikonia_> 2.) exactly what mount command did you sue
[03:00] <MaximLevitsky> mr_grump5 , for example cat /dev/hdc > /dev/null , does work
[03:00] <teex> ver irc.le.lt
[03:00] <MaximLevitsky> ?

[03:02] <v_> is there an ubuntu chat channel?
[03:02] <mr_grump5> MaximLevitsky:i tried the command u gave me..my cdrom is now busy
[03:02] <ikonia_> v_ your in tit
[03:02] <PriceChild> !offtopic | v_
[03:02] <ikonia_> it
[03:02] <ubotu> v_: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[03:02] <v_> PriceChild: thanks
[03:02] <ikonia_> PriceChild thats a good factoid
[03:03] <ikonia_> very clear
[03:03] <MaximLevitsky> mr_grump5 , so it is not permission problem
[03:03] <sceneforseen> can anyone help me with my screen rez? it's at 1024x768.  I'm on a dell xps m140.  I've tried installing 915resolution and selecting the mode, then modifying my xorg file to i810 driver.  I think I need a Modeline in there or something...
[03:03] <finalbeta> ikonia: the disk used to have several other partitions, some merged, some resided, call it an evolution. If you use an extended partition, I believe you have a hdb1, hdb2 = extended, and the rest follow,s why this is recognized as hdb5, I'm not sure, but it's been that way since  I can remember. I've done no file system changes on it in months. i've placed /dev/hdb5 /media/hdb ext3 defaults 0 0 in fstab and ran "sudo mount -a"
[03:04] <mr_grump5> MaximLevitsky:what else could be wrong>
[03:04] <Peshk0`> when is the official release of new ubuntu?
[03:04] <MaximLevitsky> mr_grump5 , something, I don't exactly know , let me try to guess
[03:05] <bvsn> hallo
[03:05] <zhengfish> new? means V7.04?
[03:05] <Peshk0`> yes
[03:05] <zhengfish> 200704
[03:05] <Peshk0`> newest
[03:05] <MaximLevitsky> mr_grump5, it could be bad disk, bug in driver CSS protected DVD, some program that blocks access to disk...
[03:05] <Peshk0`> after two months?
[03:05] <Peshk0`> :(
[03:06] <bentob0x> anybody would have an advice on a simple linux distro to run on a laptop that crashed?
[03:06] <dyrne> anyone know the reason behind the switch to dash then back to bash in feisty?
[03:06] <PriceChild> Peshk0`, 7.04 means 2007, 4th month
[03:06] <sceneforseen> anyone get that message about my rez?
[03:06] <PriceChild> dyrne, I didn't know it was back to bash in feisty?
[03:06] <ikonia_> finalbeta something has gnoe very wrong
[03:06] <ikonia_> bentob0x ubuntu
[03:06] <dyrne> well my feisty sh points to bash
[03:06] <MaximLevitsky> mr_grump5, first of all look at end of dmesg, are there any interesting lines (about errors, DMA errors, bad filesytem, etc)
[03:06] <mr_grump5> MaximLevitsky:i can't play dvd..mine is only cd r+w
[03:06] <PriceChild> dyrne, probably because of all the broken scripts ;) head to #ubuntu+1
[03:07] <finalbeta> ikonia_: Yeah, that much I found out on my own ;)
[03:07] <Peshk0`> PriceChild exactly ;)
[03:07] <mr_grump5> dmesg?
[03:07] <dyrne> it might still be dash in feisty.  i bet my brother changed it...
[03:07] <MaximLevitsky> mr_grump5, no problem , then DVD CSS is not a option
[03:08] <MaximLevitsky> As I said look at end of dmesg, are there any errors ?
[03:08] <mr_grump5> what is dmesg>?
[03:08] <MaximLevitsky> Kernel log
[03:09] <MaximLevitsky> it is command that displays kernel log
[03:09] <IdleOne> MaximLevitsky, reboot went fine, had to dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg but besides that seems ok here 
[03:09] <Peshk0`> is good to update my version to Edgy?
[03:09] <finalbeta> ikonia_: going to run some recovery tools on it. See what pans out.
[03:10] <IdleOne> Peshk0`, if you want to it is fine
[03:10] <mr_grump5> MaximLevitsky:whats the command for dmesg
[03:10] <MaximLevitsky> mr_grump5 : dmesg  :-)
[03:10] <zaydana> is it possible to run i386 .debs on an amd64 install of ubuntu?
[03:11] <mr_grump5> MaximLevitsky:can i paste bin..it says error in hdc
[03:11] <MaximLevitsky> Ok
[03:12] <MaximLevitsky> IdleOne , I too figured out X11 problems, it caused by package manager overwriting nvidia driver , I reinstalled it and OpenGL works fine. Adept still crashes (I guess that apt update is guilty, but this is not critical)
[03:12] <atlas95> hello
[03:12] <atlas95> http://www.infolexikon.de/eng_68 << do you know this program?
[03:12] <atlas95> I try to isntall it but this don't work :/
[03:13] <bentob0x> ikonia_ , is there a CD-ROM version of ubuntu?
[03:13] <atlas95> could you help me please
[03:13] <bentob0x> a version that doens't require an install?
[03:13] <mr_grump5> MaximLevitsky:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7811/
[03:14] <findeton_> hi
[03:14] <MaximLevitsky> mr_grump5   , as I thought , kernel have trouble reading disk
[03:15] <kazuhira> bentob0x : as far as i know all ubuntu distro,s are live cd's itself
[03:15] <MaximLevitsky> mr_grump5, does this happens with all disks
[03:15] <MaximLevitsky> mr_grump5, maybe this is a faulty disk
[03:15] <bentob0x> I got this : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCD :)
[03:15] <MaximLevitsky> mr_grump5, can you try different cd
[03:15] <mr_grump5> MaximLevitsky:nope only few disks..specially those created with infra recorder
[03:16] <mr_grump5> MaximLevitsky:it opens in xp!!
[03:16] <findeton_> how can i get the uuid of a drive in ubuntu?
[03:16] <findeton_> i know it's easy
[03:16] <findeton_> but i don't remember
[03:16] <MaximLevitsky> "infra recorder" > what is this ?  :-)
[03:16] <tominglis> hi, i have just installed a new intel 3945abg mini pci express card in my laptop, does anyone know how to install it in ubuntu? do i need to 'modprobe' something? i thought it would just detect it automagically?
[03:16] <mr_grump5> infra recorder is burning tool for xp
[03:17] <MaximLevitsky> Ok , understood
[03:17] <DarkSun88> findeton_: Edit the /etc/fstab file to get the uuid of a drive.
[03:18] <MaximLevitsky> mr_grump5, don't know how to help you , maybe you can try to disable DMA on disk , maybe this will help (but reduce performance)
[03:18] <mr_grump5> MaximLevitsky:how?
[03:19] <MaximLevitsky> sudo hdparm -d 0 /dev/hdc
[03:19] <MaximLevitsky> But remove disk before that
[03:19] <findeton_> DarkSun88: it's the other way, i want the uuid of a drive to put it on the fstab
[03:19] <findeton_> :P
[03:20] <glombool> apt question: I broke my distro (edgy) by installing cinelerra, which installs non-ubuntu versioned packages such as libasound2.  I need to install the ubuntu version of libasound2.  Is there an apt command to "downgrade" it?
[03:20] <DarkSun88> findeton_: Run in the terminal: sudo fdisk -l to see a drive in Ubuntu
[03:20] <MaximLevitsky> findeton_  , look at /dev/disk/by-uuid/
[03:20] <mr_grump5> MaximLevitsky:no luck man
[03:21] <mr_grump5> MaximLevitsky:does have something to do with overburn option??
[03:21] <MaximLevitsky> mr_grump5  , maybe, I don't know
[03:22] <mr_grump5> any good cd burning software which i could try and see
[03:22] <MaximLevitsky> mr_grump5  k3b  ;-)
[03:23] <Bragih> Hey there, how do I use my xp computer as a router for linux? I have both connected and the internet connection is shared, but I don't know how to configure everything @ linux
[03:23] <eilker> i wanna replace all icons and all themes of ubuntu with my icons and themes, how can i do it ? any experience ?_
[03:24] <mr_grump5> how to enable dma>
[03:24] <teeL> Is it possible to use my comp as a gateway AND print/fileserver?
[03:24] <eilker> teel  yes it is possible
[03:25] <dyrne> Bragih: id think youd just "sudo ifconfig eth0 up && dhclient eth0" xp should assign an ip and such
[03:25] <eilker> !server
[03:25] <ubotu> Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server-specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq/ - The #ubuntu-server channel provides specific support
[03:25] <mr_grump5> MaximLevitsky:how to enable dma
[03:25] <MaximLevitsky> same command : sudo hdparm -d 1 /dev/sr0
[03:26] <Hohlraum> is the new control panel no longer going to be included in feisty?  update today removed it and added the old admin/prefs menu back
[03:26] <MaximLevitsky> sudo hdparm -d 1 /dev/hdc
[03:26] <MaximLevitsky> second one
[03:27] <teeL> Well, the thing is that i have installed ubuntu desktop =P can i use it as a gateway? =P
[03:28] <Stonos> hey
[03:28] <glombool> apt question: I broke my distro (edgy) by installing cinelerra, which installs non-ubuntu versioned packages such as libasound2.  I need to install the ubuntu version of libasound2.  Is there an apt command to "downgrade" it?
[03:28] <Stonos> can i ask a (stupid) question?
[03:28] <IdleOne> Stonos, if you dont then you are stupid :P
[03:29] <IdleOne> ask away
[03:29] <Stonos> :P
[03:29] <Stonos> does Ubuntu Server have the same features as Ubuntu Desktop plus the automatic LAMP feature and all the server tools, or does it only have the things required for a web server?
[03:29] <jrib> glombool: sudo aptitude install PACKAGENAME=VERSION
[03:30] <glombool> thanks jrib
[03:30] <rishi> how to tell if my firefox is 64/32 bit ??
[03:32] <kippi> hey
[03:33] <andreasw> hi
[03:33] <kippi> what is the problem that you can run on two machines and the other one will take over the ip if one goes down? NSRP? or I am better setting up a HA link that can do load bancesing etc?
[03:33] <IdleOne> !lamp | stonos also see !repos
[03:33] <ubotu> stonos also see !repos: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[03:35] <Stonos> aha, thanks idleone
[03:35] <Stonos> can i also do this in the Desktop edition?
[03:35] <IdleOne> Stonos, no problem
[03:35] <IdleOne> Stonos, yes
[03:36] <Stonos> so, the only difference between the server and desktop edition is that the server edition automaticly installs LAMP, right?
[03:37] <Lunar_Lamp> Stonos, I'm not sure it automatically installs the packages, but it offers the option to.
[03:37] <Lunar_Lamp> Stonos, i.e. you're not forced to have the AMP packages installed.
[03:38] <Stonos> hmmm ok, thanks :)
[03:38] <geeksauce> is there a way to format my iPod to work with linux?  i have way more HDD space on this box than on my macbook :-P

[03:40] <Dr_willis> geeksauce,  if its vfat/fat filesystem - linux should be able to mount it fine.
[03:40] <babo> The Mic In won't work. I can hear fine, but I can't speak into the microphone though ...
[03:41] <geeksauce> Dr_willis, no HFS?
[03:41] <Dr_willis> geeksauce,  it may be able to use hfs.. never noticed. I wouldent touch an ipod with a... err... stick.. :)
[03:42] <FurryNemesis> bargepole
[03:42] <babo> well, I can speak into the microphone ( I'm not disabled or anything like that ). But the OS won't take the sound from the front-mike ...
[03:42] <babo> :-)
[03:43] <fiXXXerMet> How do I request a package to be added/made for ubuntu?
[03:43] <geeksauce> Dr_willis, haha you would if it was given to you as a gift ;-)
[03:44] <Dr_willis> geeksauce,  id ask for the reciept and use the $$ to get a nokia N800 :)
[03:45] <geeksauce> Dr_willis, i just had it replaced under warranty.  still haven't formatted it at all yet.  i'd like my macbook to be able to read/write to it, and OS X uses HFS or HFS+.  that's why i ask
[03:46] <Dr_willis> geeksauce,  OS-X also can read/wriet vfat i belive
[03:48] <Dr_willis> work time.. bbl
[03:48] <jrib> fiXXXerMet: try #ubuntu-motu
[03:48] <geeksauce> Dr_willis, i didn't know ipods could be formatted any way other than NTFS or HFS?
[03:48] <geeksauce> oops...he's gone
[03:49] <VSpike> Can someone tell me if this xorg.conf looks right?  I just installed the latest nvidia binary driver and let it modify xorg for me.  Things look basically OK, but this file looks a bit odd to me: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7812/

[03:50] <nothlit> privoxy
[03:51] <teeL> ok, ive been looking at it. is "Source" the one i should download?
[03:51] <kippi> what is the problem that you can run on two machines and the other one will take over the ip if one goes down? NSRP? or I am better setting up a HA link that can do load bancesing etc?
[03:52] <mr_grump5> need help emabling dma!!

[03:57] <chez> anyone an idea how to remove services/daemons from the boot screen so any disabled services dont show at post
[03:59] <dyrne> chez: you mean like sudo update-rc.d -f scriptname remove ?
[03:59] <abhi> can anyone tell me how to install extra fonts, also windows fonts?
[03:59] <_Jaak_> Sound-juicer crashes after i fallowed the instruction to rip directly to mp3, i've got the gstreamer 0.10 packages from dirty to naughty =P can someone help me?
[04:00] <dyrne> abhi: sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts  i think is still the package name
[04:01] <abhi> ok thanks ..dyrne
[04:03] <MTecknology> I'm trying to get to a different terminal within vmware... how do I do that?
[04:03] <Yancho> is it possible somehow to have ur apache running asp pages?
[04:03] <MTecknology> xsession*
[04:04] <dyrne> abhi: there's a ton of results youll get if you type apt-cache search fonts
[04:04] <kski> does anyone know why a rule i created in udev isn't loading when i start up?
[04:04] <dyrne> MTecknology: i think its alt-ctrl-shift-fkey
[04:04] <scant> hey
[04:04] <abhi> ok dyrne
[04:04] <MTecknology> dyrne, thanks
[04:05] <scant> i need advice on running a dual boot system
[04:05] <scant> can any1 help me?
[04:05] <kski> do it
[04:06] <scant> sum1 told me that i first have to partition my HDD
[04:06] <_Jaak_> scant, just pose your question
[04:06] <scant> ok
[04:06] <scant> do i have to a have a HDD dedicated to linux?
[04:06] <kski> no
[04:06] <_Jaak_> no
[04:06] <scant> or can i install  it on the same drive as windows
[04:06] <kski> i have ntfs and ext3 partitions on my drive
[04:07] <scant> how does that work
[04:07] <kski> i installed xp first
[04:07] <kski> then when linux comes up you run gparted to edit your partitions
[04:07] <Web-Kanotix845ss> hi you know if the speedtouch 580 wlan router is supported by ubuntu??? i can't find it in the web site!!!
[04:07] <kski> it asks you about that when you run the install
[04:08] <scant> and can i change the partition size whenever i want?
[04:08] <kski> yes
[04:08] <_Jaak_> scant, you can make multiple partitions, to run win and ubu, you need at least 3 partitions 1 for windows ntfs or fat, 1 ext3 for linux, 1 swap (very small) for linux
[04:08] <scant> does it do that for me?
[04:08] <kski> speaking of swap, is 2gb too big if i have 1gb of ram?
[04:08] <Skew-> what does the swap partition do?
[04:08] <kski> it won't, you have to tell it to
[04:08] <scant> is it easy to do
[04:09] <kski> it's really easy though, graphical interface
[04:09] <scant> cool
[04:09] <dyrne> Skew-: swap = page file in windows
[04:09] <kski> say you want to manually edit the partition tables during the install
[04:09] <_Jaak_> scant, i'd suggest if you allready have win installed you'd make an extra partition formatted in fat32 so you can accces files from both os
[04:09] <Skaag> I need help with my Via Unichrome video device, I am using xserver-xorg and I can't manage to get it to find it properly
[04:10] <scant> thats wat i want to do
[04:10] <kski> you'll have something like /media/hda1 with an ntfs partition, / on ext3 and a swap partion
[04:10] <_Jaak_> scant, ubu install will detect windows and configure grub for you so you get to choose between win and ubu
[04:10] <dyrne> kski: i only make swap equal to ram. and then i only really use it for hibernating since you need space to offload ram for hibernate. usually you wont really touch swap on modern system
[04:11] <_Jaak_> Sound-juicer crashes after i fallowed the instruction to rip directly to mp3, i've got the gstreamer 0.10 packages from dirty to naughty =P can someone help me?
[04:11] <dyrne> kski: if it werent for hibernate id have like a 256mb swap or something
[04:12] <funpop> is it possible to use a tv-out (ati radeon 9500 pro) with the "radeon" driver ? it worked with the fglrx, but with the radeon driver i get only weird signals on my tv..but i want the radeon to use beryl...
[04:12] <kski> ah, ok. guess i can free up a lot of space then

[05:27] <tonyyarusso> D--: Sure - remove the package in Synaptic.
[05:28] <Matic`Makovec> Just boot into the old one and apt-get remove the old one
[05:28] <Matic`Makovec> Or use Synaptic yes
[05:28] <D--> the problem is it wants to remove a shitload of other key packages
[05:28] <Matic`Makovec> I think you shouldn't worry about that
[05:28] <Matic`Makovec> Or maybe he should :)

[05:31] <packagedeliverer> hey, how do I format a usb-hd to fat in ubuntu?
[05:31] <dyrne> iosdfjdosi: its a gtk theme or a login screen theme?
[05:32] <iosdfjdosi> a login screen them
[05:32] <tonyyarusso> packagedeliverer: GParted
[05:32] <iosdfjdosi> theme
[05:32] <iosdfjdosi> i think
[05:32] <comosicus> many problems
[05:32] <comosicus> too many
[05:32] <IdleOne> Rayko, I understand that but if there isnt someone here who can help ast the momment repeating your question every ten seconds wont help any faster and will annoy ppl and make them not want to help you
[05:32] <dyrne> packagedeliverer: or sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/sda1   where sda1 is whatever partition
[05:32] <D--> ok, when I uncheck linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20.2.9-8, it says this:
[05:32] <packagedeliverer> thanks tonyyarusso
[05:32] <iosdfjdosi> polysics, you just select bridged from the network option
[05:32] <Matic`Makovec> Hey, could anyone take a look at : http://pastebin.com/890019  and maybe give an idea how to solve that?
[05:32] <D--> to be removed: linux, linux-686, linux-generic, linux-restricted-modules-generic
[05:33] <D--> somehow, removing those scares me :(
[05:33] <Rayko> idleone sorry
[05:33] <D--> will synaptic automatically reconnect these packages to my old 2.6.20.2.8.7 ?
[05:33] <IdleOne> Rayko, no need to apologise dude just trying to let you know how things are in here 
[05:34] <knubbe> anyone who knows how i scan a computer for open ssh-ports using nmap?
[05:34] <Rayko> it's ok
[05:34] <Rayko> just really need help :(
[05:34] <iosdfjdosi> so can anyone help with my theme problems?
[05:34] <dyrne> iosdfjdosi: so you launch gdmsetup  like: open terminal type "sudo gdmsetup"  then in the tab that allows you to change themes you click 'add' button  then highlight and select the theme and click ok. then put a check mark to use this theme then ok to close gdmsetup.  at what point are you getting the error?
[05:34] <tonyyarusso> D--: no.  Those are metapackages that link to whatever is newest.
[05:35] <iosdfjdosi> dyme, when i highlight the theme, the error appears
[05:35] <D--> so it saying they will be removed isn't a reasont o be scared?
[05:35] <dyrne> iosdfjdosi: aha!
[05:35] <iosdfjdosi> yes?
[05:35] <iosdfjdosi> what?
[05:35] <tonyyarusso> D--: Removing them will prevent you from getting future updates
[05:35] <D--> tony: how can I remove the newest kernel package I got then without it?
[05:35] <dyrne> iosdfjdosi: i have no idea what the problem is
[05:36] <D--> as soon as I check to remove it in synaptic, it forces me to remove those too
[05:36] <iosdfjdosi> oh great thanks
[05:36] <Shaffox> anyone has some experience with sound recorder ? what input do i have to choose (record from input:)? I speak in a headset...
[05:36] <IdleOne> D--, metapackages are only needed when installing the can safely be removed but it's recommended to have them when doing a upgrade to next version of ubuntu
[05:36] <bulmer> alook the differences between the older 9.2 and 10.2 are not that much administrator wise
[05:36] <a5benwillis> Anyone have an easy fic for thegrub error 18 when running under VMWARE?
[05:36] <Sp4rKy> hi
[05:37] <D--> I just want to remove the new 2.6.20.2-9.8 I downloaded and have my metapackages point back to 2.6.20.2.8-7
[05:37] <IdleOne> D--, if synaptic wants to remove them then let it it probably wont hurt and the worst that can happen is you might have to reinstall ( I love installing Ubuntu ) so have backups of your important files
[05:37] <Sp4rKy> does anyone know a good uml modelling software for diagram of classes ?
[05:37] <a5benwillis> !grub
[05:37] <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
[05:37] <jmazaredo> i got a debian busy box prompt initram** someting
[05:37] <iosdfjdosi> well, does someone know?
[05:38] <D--> a5benwillis: thanks.
[05:38] <D--> I'll probably just change grub to default to my old kernel
[05:38] <bulmer> D-- umm downloaded new kernel does not necessarily get installed, umm it might be there sitting in /boot/ until you do the update
[05:38] <D--> wait for something better to come along
[05:38] <comosicus> to properly install my language suport i must type in console something with -a or something like that......does someoane know for sure
[05:38] <D--> no, the new kernel is installed, just dislike it
[05:38] <D--> want to keep my old one, but was hoping to remove the new one and free up the space
[05:39] <dyrne> iosdfjdosi: :)  you might just try tar xfvz theme.tar.gz  then sudo mv directorycreated/ /usr/share/gdm/themes/. it should then show up in gdmsetup
[05:39] <bulmer> D-- yeah you can do that, modify your grub and menu.lst to point to one you like
[05:39] <rogier> is it normal the live CD can't find my (ext3) hard drive?
[05:39] <iosdfjdosi> well, the new themes show in gdmsetup
[05:39] <iosdfjdosi> i can select them
[05:39] <comosicus> to properly install my language suport i must type in console something with -a or something like that......does someoane know for sure
[05:39] <iosdfjdosi> but when i do, the error appears in console
[05:39] <D--> bulmer: still doesn't get it off the disk, but ... ah well. I guess the next kernel update will get this one off :)
[05:39] <iosdfjdosi> and theres no theme change
[05:39] <bulmer> rogier: what made you say that it can find the ext3 ?
[05:40] <bulmer> D-- you can use rm to remove noh?
[05:40] <rogier> i booted from the live CD and i don't see my normal hard drive (my regular ubuntu instal won't start up)
[05:41] <rogier> ?
[05:41] <bulmer> rogier: umm i dont understand what you meant by normal hard drive..anyhow, fdisk -l /dev/hda  will show 1st primary, hdb slave hdc 2nd primary..etc
[05:42] <_Jaak_> how do i add a Rhythmbox shared library to Rhythmbox?
[05:42] <rogier> there is only one hard drive (it has ubuntu edgy)
[05:42] <bulmer> rogier: so then do fdisk -l /dev/hda  and it should show eh
[05:43] <bulmer> rogier: if you are expecting it to be mounted as part of liveCD ..it is not going to happen, you need to mount it manually
[05:44] <IdleOne> _Jaak_, Music>Import Folder I think
[05:44] <rogier> Cannot open /dev/hda

[06:01] <acid_phyre> where is the one for ubuntu i did not think they had it
[06:01] <jstew> Hi, is there some kind of graphical SVN tool for gnome?
[06:01] <Pici> !p2p | acid_phyre
[06:01] <ubotu> acid_phyre: Conventional P2P clients: Limewire/GTK-Gnutella/Frostwire (Gnutella Network).  -  BitTorrent: see !torrent  -  Direct connect: try valknut.  -  Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/P2PFileSharing for general information.
[06:01] <ikonia_> acid_phyre there is no nativve limewire for ubuntu
[06:01] <IdleOne> acid_phyre, try frostwire
[06:01] <gambuterol> doesn't azureus work better anyway?
[06:01] <ikonia_> that I'm aware of anyway
[06:01] <ikonia_> gambuterol thats bittorrent
[06:02] <acid_phyre> but ppl have gotta it to work
[06:02] <gambuterol> yeah, but it serves the same function as limewire doesn't it?
[06:02] <acid_phyre> gotten i mean
[06:02] <ikonia_> acid_phyre got what to work ?
[06:02] <acid_phyre> limewire
[06:02] <acid_phyre> it installed fine
[06:02] <ikonia_> acid_phyre ask them as its unsupported here
[06:02] <ikonia_> acid_phyre installed doesn't mean compatible
[06:02] <ikonia_> acid_phyren you've installed a package meant for a different distro
[06:03] <acid_phyre> yea redhat package manager
[06:03] <ikonia_> yes - so why would redhat work with ubuntu
[06:03] <acid_phyre> rpm
[06:03] <ikonia_> they are totally different products
[06:03] <acid_phyre> its possible just a lil different to ge tworking
[06:03] <ikonia_> acid_phyre then why are you not getting it working instead of asking us how to get ti working if you knwo so much ?
[06:04] <acid_phyre> i know what im doing just it wont load
[06:04] <acid_phyre> dont get smart with me
[06:04] <ikonia_> acid_phyre I'm not being smart - but clearly you don't know what your doing as a.) you wouldn't be trying to port rpm's b.) giving us the debug output of "it won't load"
[06:05] <IdleOne> acid_phyre, try asking in #limewire perhaps they can help you more
[06:05] <gordonjcp> anyone know who the maintainer for Bluefish is?

[06:06] <ysg> hi all i have a problem, i am using a mobile p4 cpu on my desktop pc, it is working normal in windows but, when i boot linux, it is ok when i am using a 2.4.x kernel but when i boot a 2.6.x kernel it gives kernel panic and can not boot, do u know why, and how to solve?
[06:06] <gordonjcp> Pici: no, but thanks for reminding me of the name of the thing I was looking for ;-)
[06:07] <nullboy> ysg: you need to watch what happens right before the panic.
[06:07] <marshall> hey guys
[06:07] <nullboy> since it is kernel 2.6 i am betting that your kernel is panicking because of the disk dev changes
[06:08] <upd> hi
[06:08] <upd> how can i mount disc
[06:08] <marshall> for some reason, openoffice writer isnt picking up my spelling mistakes. im pretty sure the spell check is enabled. even when i runn the active spell check it doesnt find anything. any ideas?
[06:08] <abhi> Is there any software like kshutdown for ubnutu?
[06:08] <upd> that can i write on it
[06:08] <upd> becouse now i cant
[06:09] <dyrne> acid_phyre: i realize this doesnt go to your question but frostwire should install seamlessly as well
[06:09] <nullboy> upd: what kind of disk are you talking about?
[06:09] <upd> hdd
[06:09] <abhi> Is there any software like kshutdown for ubnutu?
[06:09] <ysg> nullboy, when i boot the same ubuntucd or any other live cd it is ok with a desktop p4 cpu but when i replace the mobile cpu it panics
[06:09] <mluser-work> Anybody know when the ubuntu clamav will be updated?
[06:10] <acid_phyre> can someone help me on installing JRE 1.5.x update?
[06:10] <abhi> Is there any software like kshutdown for ubnutu?
[06:10] <Pici> abhi: What is kshutdown?
[06:10] <ikonia_> acid_phyre apt-get it
[06:10] <abhi> autoshut down the os. in kde not working gnome
[06:11] <Pici> abhi: It should exist in the repos, have you tried isntalling it?
[06:11] <acid_phyre> have to know what its spelled like thats the only problem there
[06:11] <dyrne> upd: formated in windows? ntfs?
[06:11] <ikonia_> acid_phyre search the repo and you'll get the spelling
[06:11] <upd> yes it is ntfs
[06:12] <abhi> pici: it is present . but not working in gnome
[06:12] <upd> i mount it
[06:12] <upd> and now i cant format it
[06:12] <upd> or write on it
[06:13] <nullboy> upd: what does mount show?
[06:13] <ikonia_> upd why are you trying to format something after its been mounted
[06:13] <upd> i write mount /dev/hdc1 /mnt/lolek
[06:13] <dyrne> upd: ntfs unless you install ntfs-3g will be read only.  one way to mount it from terminal is: sudo mkdir /media/windows/ && mount -o umask=000 /dev/hda1 /media/windows/      that is assuming the partition is hda1
[06:14] <ikonia_> upd and.....
[06:14] <upd> ok tnx
[06:14] <teeL> anyone know about a good gateway guide?
[06:14] <ikonia_> teeL what do you mean
[06:14] <exs> How do I exactly get evolution mail to start-up on every boot?
[06:14] <upd> mount: special device /dev/hda1 does not exist
[06:14] <upd> hm
[06:15] <upd> ;:>
[06:15] <teeL> How to setup =P
[06:15] <teeL> on ubuntu desktop :O
[06:15] <gordonjcp> exs: system->prefs->session->startup
[06:15] <erUSUL> exs: add it to System>Prefs.>session startop programs?
[06:15] <ikonia_> teeL setup what
[06:15] <teeL> a gateway
[06:15] <exs> what's the startup command for evolution?
[06:15] <ikonia_> you should get your gateway from dhcp
[06:16] <exs> because I tried to get Gaim to startup from boot, but that never worked when I tried "gaim"
[06:16] <teeL> yeah but i dont know how to set it up..
[06:16] <ikonia_> ... stagedd [n=stagedd@ip565b478c.direct-adsl.nl]  has joined #ubuntu
[06:16] <ikonia_> oops
[06:16] <ikonia_> teeL you shouldn't have to - you should get it via dhcp from your DSL provider
[06:16] <teeL> i have tried but the comps doesnt get an ip =p
[06:16] <stagedd> Ubuntu!
[06:17] <ikonia_> teeL ahhh ok - so your not getting anything configured on your network card?
[06:17] <teeL> No. Im trying to setup a adblock server =P
[06:17] <ikonia_> teeL thats a totally different think to what you asked
[06:18] <teeL> well, thats what i mean >.<
[06:18] <ikonia_> teeL I don't have a guide for setting up an adblock server
[06:19] <teeL> I got the adblock software up and running. But now i have to use the server as a gateway.. And i dont know how to config it
[06:19] <jmazaredo> i get a initramfs console how do i fix this
[06:20] <ikonia_> teeL oooh you want other users to proxy out of it
[06:20] <almostkorean> how do i use a .patch file?
[06:20] <erUSUL> almostkorean: man patch
[06:20] <almostkorean> is that the command to use?
[06:20] <ikonia_> almostkorean you patch source code, but if you have to ask - you shouldn't be using
[06:20] <erUSUL> almostkorean: yes
[06:21] <almostkorean> what if i dont know what folder to put it in
[06:21] <teeL> ikonia_: Yes :D You know how to do that?
[06:21] <ikonia_> almostkorean then you shouldn't be using it
[06:21] <HymnToLife> almostkorean, that means you souldn't need to use it
[06:21] <ikonia_> teeL you need to look up ip_forwarding or masqurading with iptables
[06:21] <almostkorean> hm alrightt
[06:22] <Bragih> Does anyone know what I shall do if Linux doesn't play any kind of sound? I'm using a sis onboard soundcard ( AC 97 thingy ), Linux has detected and installed it
[06:22] <teeL> ikonia_: Ok thanks
[06:22] <IdleOne> !sound | Bragih

[06:27] <IdleOne> Bragih, if the driverse got installed and alsa mixer is being used then you probably need to install w32codecs like Gaz_ suggested
[06:28] <ikonia_> defrysk I didn't investigate the channel - I used the bot properly#
[06:28] <Bragih> Alright, I'll try that one, thanks

[06:28] <ikonia_> !goodbotuse >teel
[06:28] <esaym> ikonia_: what is the advantage of that? will it speed up my games?
[06:28] <ikonia_> IdleOne its a practice beign tried at the moment
[06:28] <ikonia_> esaym yes
[06:29] <esaym> oh really? hmm
[06:29] <esaym> ikonia_: what about triplebuffer?
[06:29] <IdleOne> ikonia, and using the !goodbotuse fatctoid on everybody is borderline !botabuse :P
[06:29] <ikonia_> IdleOne not really - its telling them once - take a look at this
[06:29] <ikonia_> and its in private so doesn't interupt the channel
[06:29] <IdleOne> ikonia, Ive seen it
[06:30] <ikonia_> esaym no idea
[06:30] <ikonia_> IdleOne I wasn't aware as you piped output to the channel
[06:30] <sacater> hey, I installed a source package and want to remove it, how do i do this
[06:30] <esaym> lol thanks
[06:30] <ikonia_> I thought you where not awre
[06:30] <ikonia_> aware
[06:30] <ikonia_> sacater rm
[06:30] <sacater> ikonia: and...
[06:31] <ikonia_> sacater remove everything it installed
[06:31] <IdleOne> ikonia, the rules are there to help keep the channel clear of spam but some channel spam is unavoidable and even neccesary if we are all looking at private windows then the channel looks dead and newbies wont know why this channel is even here for. IMHO of course
[06:31] <sacater> ikonia: how do i know what it installed
[06:31] <sacater> ikonia_ or where it is kept
[06:31] <ikonia_> IdleOne I get that, its just something that being tried at the moment to cut it down
[06:32] <sn0m> oi
[06:32] <ikonia_> sacater you should know you configured and built it from source
[06:32] <ikonia_> sacater thats the downside of not using a package managed software
[06:34] <sacater> ikonia_ yeah, i did simple ./configure, make, then sudo make instal
[06:34] <sacater> make install
[06:34] <ikonia_> sacater ok - so you should know where that installs to
[06:34] <sacater> /usr/local/share isnt it?
[06:35] <ikonia_> sacater a part of it will go into /usr/local/share
[06:35] <Pici> sacater: check the README or ISNTALL file that comes with the source.
[06:35] <ikonia_> only a very small part
[06:35] <Symmetria> hey all
[06:35] <Symmetria> hrm, anyone here who can test an apt-get off my mirror (it is an official mirror, I just wanna make sure people arent getting gpg errors etc)
[06:35] <thcmonkey> has the release of distros like ubuntu seen a larger influx of newbs into the linux community?
[06:36] <thcmonkey> or rather - large*
[06:36] <apokryphos> larger, sure
[06:36] <acid_phyre> nvm on the java YAY automatix is back online
[06:37] <Pici> !automatix | acid_phyre
[06:37] <ubotu> acid_phyre: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[06:37] <acid_phyre> hehe cry about it
[06:37] <Pici> Just giving fair warning.
[06:38] <acid_phyre> yea ive never seen it break a system though so no biggy
[06:38] <techie1> Is it possible to download Ubuntu programs to a cd an use them while still on Ubuntu Livecd?
[06:41] <betatux> techie1, i think that's perfectly possible , if you would compile and install programs an a writable/rewritable disc and you're able to mount this disc when using the livecd you're able to run those programs
[06:41] <sn0m> is it possible to remove beryl completely without destroying ubuntu
[06:41] <FunnyLookinHat> techie1, You can create your own LiveCD image somewhere, I forget what the website is that hosts the program though...
[06:41] <sn0m> i screwed it up big time one
[06:41] <w0rmy> hi, I have a network problem, I get REALLY slow pings inside my LAN. I use a usb wifi card. on windows it works fine...
[06:42] <Pici> !ipv6 | w0rmy, try disabling ipv6 if you dont need it
[06:42] <ubotu> w0rmy, try disabling ipv6 if you dont need it: To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[06:42] <w0rmy> I think I already disabled ipv6 thou Ill take a look, thanks !
[06:42] <Symmetria> errr
[06:47] <Konoko> I used split
[06:47] <PriceChild> !netsplit
[06:47] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[06:47] <Konoko> ohir: but is it possible to merge them under windows?
[06:47] <yomm> Symmetria : where can I learn more about it ?
[06:47] <rogier> mount: can't find /dev/hda1 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[06:47] <ikonia_> rogier show me the command you used
[06:47] <Symmetria> yomm about ipv6? well, its a rather wide topic, any specifics you wanna learn about?
[06:47] <ohir> Konoko should be possible thru dosbox copy commnd
[06:47] <chivosolar> oh man everything disappeared
[06:48] <chivosolar> hey Im havin some trouble finding the place (right file) to specify how these external 300gb usb drive is to be mounted. what file do i put permanent entries for specifying how to mount external usb drives
[06:48] <ikonia_> chivosolar /etc/fstab
[06:48] <rogier> mount /dev/hda1 $mount_point
[06:48] <Konoko> ohir: Im looking for something "easier" for users.. I wanna rapidshare a file for my friend
[06:48] <ohir> Konoko the limits of sizes and names of dosbox apply
[06:48] <Konoko> he uses windows
[06:48] <eyalw> hi, looking for a firefox extention that acts like a session saver, only that you can continue that session from another computer by using the extention (similar to google bookmarks)
[06:48] <chivosolar> ok so I got fstab do I also need to do something with mtab?
[06:48] <ikonia_> rogier ughhhh did you change $mount_point to a mount point on your system
[06:48] <yomm> well , i'm trying to run a home media server , so i"m a bit worried about security as I am not an expert , so security related
[06:48] <ikonia_> chivosolar mtab is dynamic
[06:49] <chivosolar> well yes they are external usb drives
[06:49] <rogier> like a folder?
[06:49] <Vesper> How can I format a harddrive in my machine with fdisk?  I want to set it up to ext3 partitioning
[06:49] <ikonia_> chivosolar no - I mean the mtab file is created dynamiclly
[06:49] <GrahamA> Quick question: I have NetworkManager Applet, and I don't want it, how do I get rid of it?
[06:49] <ohir> konoko try archivizers then
[06:49] <ikonia_> Vesper you don't format using fdisk
[06:49] <rogier> in media
[06:49] <Kristov`> Kristov
[06:49] <acid_phyre> haha ikonia u dumb*** all i needed was the updated version of java which i got from automatix and my limewire works
[06:49] <ikonia_> rogier yes a directory
[06:49] <acid_phyre> thanks for nothing
[06:49] <rausb0> is the bcm43xx firmware kernel specific? if so, why?
[06:51] <chivosolar> ikonia, ah
[06:56] <nullboy> marshall: java
[06:56] <Pici> bdragonmsl: you dont
[06:56] <ikonia_> bdragonmsl you don't need to - use sdo
[06:56] <ikonia_> bdragonmsl you don't need to - use sudo
[06:56] <Pici> !sudo | bdragonmsl
[06:56] <ubotu> bdragonmsl: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[06:56] <Vesper> So what command do I use to format a hard drive then?
[06:56] <Konoko> ohir: How can I do with lha?
[06:56] <bdragonmsl> I tried that, but beryl won't install with out me being root
[06:56] <ikonia_> Vesper depends what file system you want on it
[06:56] <Vesper> ext3
[06:56] <techie1> ubuto. Gparted is already on the ubuntu livecd?
[06:56] <ikonia_> bdragonmsl yes it will
[06:56] <ikonia_> Vesper mke2fs -k
[06:56] <ikonia_> Vesper mke2fs -j
[06:56] <ohir> Konoko there is linux version of lharc, at least was 5 yrs ago ;)
[06:56] <falcon3> how do i change to "be" keyboard layout in console ? i don't have X
[06:56] <_raphael_> is aiglx enabled by default in edgy?
[06:56] <bdragonmsl> not thru the automatic install
[06:57] <ikonia_> bdragonmsl yes it will
[06:57] <Konoko> ohir: ^^ thanks, im new at linux ''
[06:57] <Vesper> ikonia_: Will that specify the second harddrive?  That's the one I want to format.
[06:57] <crimsun> _raphael_: yes.
[06:57] <techie1> Because I have Fat 32 in my xindows xp I thought i had to repartition my drive before installing ubuntu. I do not want to loose my previous os.
[06:57] <IdleOne> techie1, no I dont think but you can install it ( wont save when you reboot ) but I suggest you go to the website and burn the live cd version to keep handy
[06:57] <ohir> Konoko: though I don't have it at had to check manual for you, try find answer thru search engine.
[06:57] <bdragonmsl> ikonia, I've tried, it comes up with a message.
[06:57] <ikonia_> Vesper you specify the device you want to format
[06:57] <eNeSKa> siema
[06:57] <eNeSKa> jest tu kto
i have burned livecd, also have another cd for systemrescue
[06:57] <goomie> I've followed the guide to install nvidia drivers but when i restart X it errors?
[06:57] <ikonia_> Vesper eg: mke2fs -j /dev/sda1
[06:58] <IdleOne> techie1, I meant the live cd version of gparted
[06:58] <ikonia_> bdragonmsl well, it does work
i just wanted to understand the process
[06:58] <Vesper> ikonia_: Thanks!  I'll try that now.

[06:58] <bdragonmsl> "
[06:58] <falcon3> how do i change to "be" keyboard layout in console ? i don't have X
[06:58] <IdleOne> techie1, it is free google gparted
is it a visual partition program?

[07:05] <paradizelost> it's a Broadcom BCM5702X
[07:05] <rogier> any one tips on a guide to mount ntfs partition read/ write from the livecd?
[07:05] <tonyyarusso> !broadcom | paradizelost
[07:05] <ubotu> paradizelost: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:05] <IdleOne> !ntfs > rogier
[07:05] <ikonia_> rogier you'll need to install ntfs-3g
[07:05] <paradizelost> tonyyarusso, it's not a wireless card
[07:06] <tonyyarusso> blah, not wireless...
[07:06] <paradizelost> it's a broadcom gigabit card
[07:06] <paradizelost> in an ML310 Server
[07:06] <zspada15_> paradizelost: never had a problem wiht a broadcom
[07:06] <tonyyarusso> paradizelost: sorry, thought that factoid went somewhere else.  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport, components > network cards perhaps.
[07:06] <ikonia_> paradizelost look for the HP linux pack to check driver compatiability
[07:06] <zspada15_> paradizelost: modprobe your bcm module
[07:06] <rogier> yes but i can only find instructions where i have te reboot. (and thats a bit of a problem using the livecd)
[07:06] <zspada15_> just hit tab when you see bc
[07:06] <paradizelost> system initially segment fault'ed on  initial boot after install
[07:06] <ikonia_> zspada15_ some of the later broadcoms are a 3rd party module only
[07:07] <paradizelost> had to boot to a gentoo livecd to do the dist-upgrade to get a newer kernel
[07:07] <hydoskee> what's the best way to make a ram disk/partition
[07:07] <poningru> !photoshop
[07:07] <ubotu> A comprehensive list of of Windows-equivalent applications in Linux can be found at http://www.linuxrsp.ru/win-lin-soft/table-eng.html and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WhatWindowsUsersWant
[07:07] <zspada15_> ubotu: tell zspada15_ about ubuntu ultimate
[07:07] <paradizelost> module bcm not found :P
[07:07] <ikonia_> zspada15_ ubuntu ultimate is a none-official ubuntu build
[07:07] <chivosolar> im gonna try a reboot
[07:07] <chivosolar> i know i know i know
[07:07] <IdleOne> zspada15_, /msg ubotu search
[07:07] <chivosolar> it has to work from boot up though
[07:08] <ikonia_> chivosolar what does - ntfs writing
[07:08] <zspada15_> IdleOne: thank you
[07:08] <paradizelost> zspada15_, network worked fine under gentoo livecd
[07:08] <rogier> (it is already mounted (read only)
[07:08] <chivosolar> ikonia, ?   ntfs-3g
[07:08] <ikonia_> chivosolar sorry - you said you're going to reboot as "it" has to work at boot time ?
[07:09] <chivosolar> although I get the idea that ntfs-3g uses fuse
[07:09] <zspada15_> paradizelost: are the lights on on your network card?
[07:09] <paradizelost> doesn't matter, if i do an ifconfig -a, nothing shows but lo
[07:09] <dyrne> paradizelost: cat /etc/iftab  does a device show there?
[07:09] <chivosolar> oh well not that the usb drive has to be accessible at boot "time" just through the boot up I get it after loggin in
[07:09] <paradizelost> but no, i haven't unplugged it since i was in the gentoo livecd
[07:10] <ikonia_> chivosolar if its in the fstab - it will mount at boot
[07:10] <paradizelost> dyrne, it shows AN entry for an eth0 with a mac, but doesn't say anything about module or anything like that
[07:10] <paradizelost> but that is most likely there from the install
[07:11] <paradizelost> as the network worked fine on install
[07:11] <paradizelost> during the install process that is
[07:11] <paradizelost> not following reboot
[07:11] <set|sleep> hello
[07:11] <paradizelost> as it segfault'ed after reboot
[07:11] <sinizzl> can anyone tell me how i can influence a user's gnome-session command order? i need a certain command to be run AFTER another certain command but it defaults the other way round :(
[07:12] <goundy> little question, I've GParted and i'm about to resize a partition (NTFS) is this possible ?
[07:12] <WhitePanda> help im a newb and i have no console
[07:12] <Strump> can anyone help me with bzflag? i can only log in to a server one time, after restart bzf, bzf is crashing, when i log into the same server, when i delete .bzf in my directory, i can log in without crash, one time
[07:12] <ikonia_> goundy yes
[07:12] <ikonia_> WhitePanda how can you not have a console- what do you have - a black screen
[07:12] <WhitePanda> yes
[07:12] <dyrne> goundy: you might want to back up essential stuff first juts in case
[07:12] <set|sleep> i'm still new to ubuntu and i have tried installing the server version
[07:12] <MeisterZopf> WhitePanda, press Alt+F2 and type "gnome-terminal"
[07:12] <WhitePanda> no cursor
[07:12] <goundy> dyrne, ikonia thank you guys :] 
[07:12] <Symmetria> any south africans in here?
[07:13] <set|read> anyway i came up with a problem with the telnet daemon ... I tried installing it
[07:13] <WhitePanda> what is ctrl-alt-F1 for?
[07:13] <dkbg> anyone have any info on using the radeon open source driver on a radeon mobility x700? according to this http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/ATIRadeon#head-6273a167aed0e717c2b56abe2c7a95d701945d2a my card is supported by it
[07:13] <set|read> with apt-get install telnetd but i end up receiving an error couldn't find telnetd
[07:13] <Symmetria> set|read why are you installing a telnet daemon? only do that with extreme care
[07:13] <Pici> WhitePanda: brings you to a tty (terminal) prompt
[07:13] <ikonia_> set|read where did you get that error, at install time or at run time
[07:13] <set|read> symmetria : am just using 2 pcs at home for error
[07:14] <WhitePanda> it gives a black screen
[07:14] <set|read> err for installation
[07:14] <set|read> ikonia : when i do it runtime
[07:14] <WhitePanda> does the terminal work the same as the consoel
[07:14] <RabidPanda> rAr!
[07:14] <Symmetria> set|read I would suggest using ssh over telnet
[07:14] <WhitePanda> damn pandas
[07:14] <ikonia_> set|read do "find / -name telnetd print"
[07:14] <tristan_> hello there
[07:14] <RabidPanda> lol
[07:14] <Symmetria> telnet is rather horribly insecure :)
[07:14] <tristan_> Is someone familiar with .htaccess of servers and could help me
[07:15] <c4rb> sure, what you want tristan
[07:15] <RabidPanda> rather horibly ?
[07:15] <falcon3> My install-cd is hanging on "Booting the kernel", what can i do ?
[07:15] <RabidPanda> sounds as though you're almost not very sure of yourself kinda ;)
[07:15] <tristan_> c4rb, I have changed all my .html pages to .php pages. I just want a redirection of all .html to .php
[07:15] <c4rb> that's not too hard
[07:15] <c4rb> what server are you using?
[07:15] <tristan_> c4rb, that's what I think but I don't know how to do it
[07:16] <tristan_> c4rb, it's Apache
[07:16] <tonyyarusso> tristan_: Is this a server that you have root access to?
[07:16] <c4rb> is php installed as a module?
[07:16] <c4rb> to apache
[07:16] <set|read> ikonia wait trying it right now
[07:16] <tristan_> c4rb, woo I don't know. I know that I can use .htaccess. I know also I can personnalize my 404 erro, I've done it
[07:17] <tristan_> I don't know if it helps you
[07:17] <c4rb> that's good.
[07:17] <goundy> problem :(
[07:17] <tonyyarusso> tristan_: If you do, it's better not to use .htaccess.  The line in question in your /etc/apache2/ is "mods-available/dir.conf:          DirectoryIndex index.html index.cgi index.pl index.php index.xhtml"
[07:17] <goundy> with GParted I can't resize a fuc*ing NTFS partition :s
[07:17] <tristan_> This is an Apache server that is over the internet
[07:17] <goundy> the resize button is disabled when I choose it :s
[07:17] <set|read> ikonia the command gives an error
[07:17] <tristan_> I don't administrate it
[07:17] <tonyyarusso> tristan_: Otherwise, just put the same in your .htaccess, rather than dir.conf.
[07:17] <mwe> goundy: make sure the partition is not mounted
[07:17] <tonyyarusso> Okay
[07:17] <tristan_> It is for my webbapge
[07:18] <goundy> mwe, oh right I'll verify this
[07:18] <goundy> thank you
[07:18] <mwe> yw
[07:18] <set|read> path must precede expression (find / -name telnetd print)
[07:18] <c4rb> http://www.ilovejackdaniels.com/apache/mod_rewrite-cheat-sheet/
[07:18] <goundy> mwe, not mounted :s
[07:18] <c4rb> that should help you out with mod_rewrite
[07:18] <tristan_> can I do something like RedirectMatch seeother *.html *.php?
[07:18] <mwe> goundy: and run it as root or with sudo/gksudo
[07:18] <tonyyarusso> tristan_: The important part was "I don't administrate it" - many people run webservers that they do.
[07:18] <tristan_> sorry
[07:18] <goundy> mwe, already done :/
[07:18] <WhitePanda> i cant install the drivers for my ATI radeon Mobility x1400...can anyone help??
[07:19] <tonyyarusso> tristan_: Not sure about RedirectMatch - mod_rewrite could do it too otherwise.
[07:19] <mwe> goundy: I don't know why then. Maybe you need the chkdisk it
[07:19] <goundy> mwe, I'll look
[07:19] <chivosolar> ikonia, so havin some strange side effect, i rebooted and the computer browser shows the two usb partions as drives but complains that only root can mount the device; ls -al /media shows that the directory is owned by root root  and the main drive directories are owned by   root plugdev
[07:19] <mwe> goundy: that would be from within windows
[07:20] <gambuterol> woh. irc in gaim feels really strange.
[07:20] <goundy> mwe, yes thank you guy ;)
[07:20] <tristan_> so should I write mod_rewrite ^.html ^.php?
[07:20] <Edulix> is this normal in smartctl output ? Raw_Read_Error_Rate     0x000f   100   100   046    Pre-fail  Always       -       105531
[07:20] <tonyyarusso> tristan_: I think that's the way I'd go.
[07:20] <chivosolar> ikonia, ok so I change the group of the /media/drivename to plugdev and i still get the message that it can only be mounted by root
[07:21] <Edulix> (and the number changes all the time)
[07:22] <Selaiah> For my Wlan Card to work properly i need to do a /etc/init.d/networking restart. Is it possible to automize this on bootup?
[07:22] <Selaiah> Maybe by adding that line to some start script?
[07:22] <set|read> ikonia i'm using ubuntu 6.06 server version
[07:22] <profoX`> Which PCMCIA (cardbus) wireless networking cards have good linux support?
[07:22] <set|read> symmetria i'm just tryng to setup the telnet daemon for 2 pcs in a private network only
[07:23] <Supre_Me> hello, my system tells me my file system is readonly, how do I fix that?
[07:23] <goundy> guys hum
[07:23] <goundy> GParted can't read NTFS :/
[07:24] <goundy> All I want is to resize an NTFS partition.
[07:24] <goundy> s Solution ?
[07:24] <goundy> -s +a
[07:24] <wolfmanz> anyone have a ati 9800 pro working properly under ubuntu so that it shows up when you do fglrxinfo     ?
[07:25] <tristan_> RewriteRule gives me a 500 error
[07:25] <tristan_> If I use RedirectMatch seeother ^.html ^.php it doesn't work
[07:25] <elyon225> Is there a way to write to an NTFS partition in Ubuntu?
[07:25] <elyon225> !ntfs
[07:25] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[07:26] <tristan_> but I'm not sure if I need to use the ^ character
[07:26] <elyon225> !fuse
[07:26] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing using fuse here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[07:26] <elyon225> !ntfx-3g
[07:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfx-3g - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:26] <chivosolar> is there anything on this line from fstab that would restrict mounting the drive by only the root user?  /dev/sda1       /media/ChocoSol-1       ntfs-3g defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0       1
[07:26] <elyon225> !ntfs-3g
[07:26] <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)
[07:27] <tristan_> files have exactly the same name. I want index.html to be redirected to index.php and so on for every pages
[07:27] <JD|work> Ubuntu install is asking me if the system clock is set to UTC
[07:27] <JD|work> do I say yes or no?
[07:27] <JD|work> I'm in the US
[07:27] <lordhelmet> i always say no...
[07:27] <lordhelmet> and i've never had any problems on the many machines i've installed on
[07:28] <lordhelmet> i always get ntpd running though
[07:28] <falcon3> No common CD-ROM drive was detected. I don't have any drivers for the dvdrw myself, can anyone help me ? (6.10 ubuntu server)
[07:28] <Mach3> anyone here good with dual-boot problems?
[07:29] <lordhelmet> Mach3: maybe...what's the problem
[07:29] <Mach3> lordhelmet: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7831/
[07:29] <georgetownhero4l> heys
[07:29] <georgetownhero4l> anyone know hwo to get Microsoft Epression Web to work in Ubuntu 6.10
[07:29] <georgetownhero4l> is that even possible
[07:29] <dawn> Hello, I have a probleme whith landes eternelles : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7832/
[07:29] <Supre_Me> I want to edit my xorg.conf but my system tells me that the system is only read able. What do I do?
[07:30] <IndyGunFreak> Supre_Me: if y9u're using gnome.. sudo gedit /path to file/xorg.conf
[07:30] <Supre_Me> IndyGunFreak: ok, i'll try that
[07:30] <Wulfie> anyone know how I can get around this package architecture (i386) does not match system (amd64) when installing packages?
[07:31] <Supre_Me> IndyGunFreak: sorry, but that was just what I was doing. I still get the same output
[07:31] <georgetownhero4l> im taking that as a no then?
[07:31] <IndyGunFreak> Supre_Me: did you put that command in a terminal?
[07:31] <ohir> Wulfie get packages compiled for your CPU (Amd64)
[07:31] <dooglus> Supre_Me: you need to mount the filesystem readwrite not readonly
[07:31] <lordhelmet> Mach3: hmm.....i've had problems like that before...basically the drive it tries to boot to isn't the drive it thought was gong to be the boot drive during install.....
[07:31] <Supre_Me> IndyGunFreak: yes
[07:31] <dawn> Hello, I have a probleme whith landes eternelles : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7832/
[07:31] <Supre_Me> dooglus: and how do I do that?
[07:31] <x386> hello *
[07:31] <IndyGunFreak> Supre_Me: that should have allowed you to edit it.
[07:31] <lordhelmet> Mach3: you might have to use a livecd to change the fstab....thinking....
[07:31] <Wulfie> but if I want to use the 386 packs?
[07:31] <Supre_Me> dooglus: I just reinstalled everything
[07:32] <almostkorean> supr_me:  i had to use the chmod command
[07:32] <AlexC_> Wulfie: that's because you're trying to install a 32bit packaeg on a 64bit install of Ubuntu
[07:32] <ohir> Wulfie you don't have i386 CPU
[07:32] <AlexC_> ohir: no, he doesn't have a i386 install of Ubuntu =)
[07:32] <IndyGunFreak> Wulfie: just another reason to stick with the i386 distros for now.
[07:32] <Supre_Me> almostkorean: sorry, could you give me the whole command? i'm kinda a linux newbie. chmodd 777 something, right?
[07:32] <Matic`Makovec> Could someone please remember me how to show .files in graphical browser?
[07:32] <Wulfie> yes I understand but I have the 32 compat libraries and the packs should work - I just want to install them
[07:32] <almostkorean> supr_me: yeah, chmod 777 filenam
[07:33] <AlexC_> Matic`Makovec: View->Show Hidden Files
[07:33] <Matic`Makovec> Thanks
[07:33] <ohir> AlexC_ yep, thanks.
[07:33] <Pici> Matic`Makovec: I think you can do the shortcut ctrl-h or AlexC_ advice
[07:33] <Supre_Me> almostkorean: it still tells me that it's readonly. chmodd doesn't work :/
[07:33] <Matic`Makovec> Yeah, saw that, thanks AlexC_ and Pici
[07:34] <AlexC_> Matic`Makovec: you're welcome
[07:34] <dooglus> Supre_Me: check how it's mounted first.  what does this show?    mount | grep $(df /etc/fstab | grep ^/ | awk '{print $1}')
[07:34] <almostkorean> ahh sorry, its chmod, with one d
[07:34] <dawn> Hello, I have a probleme whith landes eternelles : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7832/
[07:34] <lordhelmet> Mach3: how are your drives setup? which is master/slave windows/ubuntu?
[07:34] <WhitePanda> can anyone help with installing video drivers
[07:34] <AlexC_> WhitePanda: please ask a real question =)
[07:34] <AlexC_> !nvidia | WhitePanda
[07:34] <ubotu> WhitePanda: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:34] <gambuterol> how do I install a font?
[07:34] <WhitePanda> thx
[07:35] <WhitePanda> ATI and I already converted it from a .rpm to a .deb
[07:35] <gambuterol> wait i got it. asked ubotu
[07:35] <lordhelmet> gambuterol: some you can just drop into ~/.fonts i think
[07:35] <Mach3> lordhelmet: they are sata so theres no "master/slave" relationship that i'm aware of.   I have the boot priority set to the linux drive, so that it boots through grub
[07:35] <Supre_Me> almostkorean: yes I wrote it with one d
[07:36] <lordhelmet> Mach3: and was it like that when you installed as well?
[07:36] <AlexC_> lordhelmet: gambuterol or type "fonts://" into the location bar and drag/drop fonts into there
[07:36] <lordhelmet> March3: or did you do the unplug thing?
[07:36] <trainer> hi, I wanted to try kde, so I installed the kubuntu-desktop package but when I restarted i still get gnome. what am i missing?
[07:36] <almostkorean> supre_me: oh...hmm did you do sudo chmod ?
[07:36] <dooglus> Supre_Me: chmod can't do anything on a readonly filesystem
[07:36] <lordhelmet> trainer: you have to select kde from the Session menu
[07:36] <Supre_Me> dooglus: the output from that is: /dev/hdc3 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)
[07:36] <IndyGunFreak> falcon3: good luck, if you think Ubuntu support might be lackign sometimes... lol,
[07:36] <dooglus> almostkorean: the filesystem isn't writable.  being root won't help
[07:36] <AlexC_> trainer: see when you login it says Options bottom right? Click that, select Session and then choose KDE
[07:36] <AlexC_> trainer: bottom left, I mean
[07:36] <almostkorean> oh i see
[07:36] <almostkorean> i dono then sorry
[07:37] <yell0w> hey guys what's traceroute command in *nix ?
[07:37] <falcon3> IndyGunFreak: well, skipping the hard questions here is easy too :)
[07:37] <dooglus> Supre_Me: what's the error message when you run "sudo chmod a+w /etc/X11/xorg.conf" then?
[07:37] <trainer> lordhelmet AlexC_ thanks! will it remember that choice on subsequent restarts?
[07:37] <IndyGunFreak> falcon3: maybe nobody knows the answer....
[07:37] <AlexC_> trainer: can't remember
[07:37] <dsl7957> hi all
[07:37] <Mach3> lordhelmet: i installed Ubuntu with the windows drive unplugged.  then i edited my menu.lst with that entry, and set the boot priority to boot from the linux drive, and
[07:37] <Supre_Me> dooglus: it says it's only readonly O.O
[07:38] <falcon3> IndyGunFreak: there has to be some precedence to my problem :(
[07:38] <dooglus> Supre_Me: what does it really say?
[07:38] <dooglus> Supre_Me: I don't believe it says "it's only readonly O.O"
[07:38] <Mach3> lordhelmet: ignore that last and
[07:39] <Supre_Me> dooglus: well, it's on the other comp and in swedish so i'll translate it: chmod: changes rights on "/etc/X11/xorg.conf": Filesystem is only read able
[07:39] <dsl7957> anyone know if i can install ubuntu by downloading the .ISO file through Damn Small Linux ???
[07:39] <dsl7957> (im a newbie)
[07:39] <IndyGunFreak> readonly 0.0.. first time i saw that one..lol
[07:40] <dooglus> Supre_Me: it's strange.  the 'mount' output shows it's mounted 'rw', yes chmod tells you the filesystem is readonly.
[07:40] <lordhelmet> Mach3: if you don't mind a reinstall (it's pretty quick) i would try the advanced install and select your own grub device (with all drives plugged in). also why are you working it this way? i've never had any problems with the typical overwrite mbr method
[07:40] <Pici> dsl7957: you;re running dsl as a live session
[07:40] <Supre_Me> dooglus: aye
[07:40] <JuJuBee> Howdy all.  How do I lock the desktop picture on a computer so others cannot change it?  I wish it to be the same for all accounts all of the time.
[07:41] <dooglus> Supre_Me: I see the mount options are "rw,error=readonly" - could it be there's an error on the filesystem, so it's remounted it readonly?
[07:41] <dsl7957> i installed dsl directly on my HD
[07:41] <dsl7957> and boot through grub
[07:41] <Mach3> lordhelmet: well i did.  i restarted from the Ubuntu install only to find that i couldnt boot into windows OR ubuntu.. my system would post, and then sit there.
[07:41] <Supre_Me> dooglus: I don't know, i'm not sure. Is there anyway to remount it?
[07:41] <Pici> dsl7957: That was supposed to be a question, ah, okay, I dont see why you wouldnt be able to download it.  But you'd have to burn it to disc to install.
[07:42] <Mach3> lordhelmet: it took me all night to fix it to where i could get into windows again.  and when i learned i could do it without grub on my windows drive, i knew that was for me
[07:42] <dsl7957> thats the kicker...i dont have a cd rom drive on my laptop so ive been booting through a usb drive
[07:42] <dooglus> Supre_Me: I don't think so - the partition is in use.  you'll need to reboot I guess
[07:43] <dooglus> Supre_Me: can you "sudo touch /blah" for example?
[07:43] <williammanda> can someone help me with an apt-get problem?
[07:43] <IndyGunFreak> !someone
[07:43] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:43] <Supre_Me> dooglus: no it says I can't touch "/blah" because the system is readonly
[07:44] <Supre_Me> dooglus: I'll reboot the system then and see if that helps. I just hope it won't crash again.
[07:44] <Crow> Is there a way to get directory size (ls -s or l as far as I could check giv e very small numbers)
[07:44] <Pici> dsl7957: Theres a guide here on how to install ubuntu from a usb stick: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick .  I've never done it, but the instructions look concise.
[07:44] <dsl7957> pici: im downloading ubuntu6.10.iso on the laptop i wish to install, the only this is how can i install without using a live cd install?
[07:44] <Mach3> lordhelmet: well, ihave to go.  thanks for trying to help
[07:44] <dsl7957> ok let me take a look
[07:45] <AlexC_> williammanda: our channel psyhics are on holliday/vacation currently. Instead you'll have to tell us you're problem this time
[07:45] <ohir> Supre_Me try sudo mount -o remount,ro / ; sudo mount -o remount,rw /

[07:45] <dooglus> Supre_Me: looks to me like there's an error on the / filesystem
[07:45] <dooglus> Supre_Me: try rebooting into 'rescue mode' or whatever ubuntu calls it
[07:45] <[GuS] > Guys... cdimage.ubuntu.com is not working? i cant enter the site
[07:45] <ohir> Supre_Me though its ro likely due to some error on fs
[07:46] <AlexC_> [GuS] : works here, but slow
[07:46] <[GuS] > :S
[07:46] <dooglus> [GuS] : it's fast here: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/
[07:46] <Supre_Me> ohir: euhm, that command didn't work
[07:46] <GhostFreeman_> I've encountered a crash during a system update, how can I resume from my crash point?
[07:46] <dooglus> [GuS] : cdimage.ubuntu.com has address 91.189.89.4 ; cdimage.ubuntu.com has address 91.189.89.7
[07:46] <[GuS] > well... seems i cant get the url
[07:46] <Supre_Me> dooglus: ok, I can try that. I'll just try a normal reboot first
[07:47] <hellmet> Does anyone know of any mp3pro to mp3 converter? I'm planning to convert my collection into OGG. Can't convert into OGGfrom mp3pro.
[07:47] <game> how do i uninstall things like openoffice without uninstalling ubuntu-desktop? in my experience uninstalling ubuntu-desktop means it drags almost everything usefull with it?!
[07:47] <Agrajag> hellmet: Why do you want to convert?
[07:47] <[GuS] > :( i cant enter the site dooglus :(
[07:47] <IndyGunFreak> game: just use synaptic
[07:47] <Agrajag> hellmet: Doing that will mean a significant loss in audio quality.
[07:47] <dooglus> game: uninstalling ubuntu-desktop doesn't uninstall anything else
[07:47] <TSWoodV> How can I implement a case-insensitive filesystem w/o resorting to formatting a partition as FAT32 and/or loopback mounting a file-based FAT32 file?
[07:47] <AlexC_> game: no no, ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. Removing it is fine, though if you want to upgrade to latest Ubuntu you'll have to insatll it again
[07:47] <game> Ah ok
[07:48] <game> last time i tried though it took gnome with it
[07:48] <dooglus> game: I suppose if you're using aptitude then it might take things with it, but using apt-get or synaptic won't
[07:48] <[GuS] > ins't there some mirror for http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/feisty/ ?
[07:48] <AlexC_> game: it shouldn't have, really
[07:48] <IndyGunFreak> game: yeah, thats a little unusual
[07:48] <AlexC_> !ubuntu+1 | [GuS] 
[07:48] <ubotu> [GuS] : The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn"), it should be released in April 2007. At the moment it is alpha.

[07:48] <crimsun> hellmet: http://www.all4mp3.com/tools/sw_ct_demo.html
[07:49] <dooglus> [GuS] : which version of which herd do you want?
[07:49] <[GuS] > i need mirrors AlexC_ .. not INFO...
[07:49] <AlexC_> dooglus: [GuS]  Ubuntu Fesity talk in #ubuntu+1 please
[07:49] <crimsun> hellmet: there appears to be an xmms plugin; further, some people have reported success with wine & the Thomson mp3PRO demo
[07:49] <[GuS] > Kubuntu feisty dooglus
[07:49] <falcon3> are there mirrorsites for Herd 4 of Feisty ?
[07:49] <dooglus> [GuS] : there are 4 versions, and 3 architectures
[07:49] <[GuS] > AlexC_, i am talking about cdimage.ubuntu.com
[07:49] <[GuS] > not feisty indeed
[07:49] <[GuS] > so please, read...
[07:49] <[GuS] > dooglus, desktop, 386
[07:50] <ToddEDM> hey guys, im in need of some help, i need to know how to shut down X, and get to a command line
[07:50] <hellmet> for some reason I cudn't type.. sorry
[07:50] <AlexC_> [GuS] : I did, you're URL you posted had the word Feisty it in, and since you just said to dooglus you want the Kubuntu Herd that means you want Fesity, if you want to discuess and get Feisty go into #ubuntu+1
[07:50] <hellmet> it plays in mplayer..but with loss of quality..
[07:50] <crimeboy> sudo ToddEDM: killall gdm
[07:50] <hellmet> Good in XMMS with mp3pro plugin.. but IMO XMMS sucks!!
[07:50] <crimeboy> ToddEDM: sudo killall gdm
[07:50] <ToddEDM> thanks man
[07:50] <[GuS] > i will repeat for last AlexC_ ... i am not talking about Feisty.... but about a URL i cant get
[07:51] <[GuS] > ok?
[07:51] <[GuS] > :)
[07:51] <dooglus> [GuS] : get the torrent here: http://dooglus.rincevent.net/feisty-desktop-i386.iso.torrent

[07:51] <dooglus> [GuS] : that's herd4
[07:51] <[GuS] > thanks dooglus , very much
[07:51] <AlexC_> [GuS] : and the URL you want to get it is about Feisty as you want the Herd 4 release for Kubuntu _Feisty_ correct?

[07:52] <GhostFreeman> i'll write that down, thanks
[07:52] <game> openoffice now wants to remove language-support-en is that also not going to break anything?
[07:52] <dooglus> GhostFreeman: alt-f7
[07:52] <Supre_Me> how come my system always wants to do a manual fsck on start?
[07:52] <[GuS] > dooglus, starting to download now :) thanks again
[07:52] <dooglus> GhostFreeman: (if you're going to write it down...)
[07:53] <yeniklasor> :)
[07:53] <[GuS] > but is weird that i cant access that site...
[07:53] <dooglus> [GuS] : yes

[07:56] <[GuS] > 260ms
[07:56] <dooglus> [GuS] : that's still not too bad.  so why can't you access the sitE?
[07:56] <slippyr4> hi all, how can i make xchat auto- authenticate my nickname (/msg nickserv identify password) on logon to freenode?
[07:56] <[GuS] > i dont know.. it keeps trying to access when i put the URL in my browser
[07:56] <[GuS] > but nothing.... time out
[07:57] <AlexC_> slippyr4: Edit->Preferecenes->Networks->Ubuntu Server->Edit->Nickserv password ....
[07:57] <dooglus> [GuS] : can you 'wget http://91.189.89.7/' ?
[07:57] <slippyr4> alexc_ ah its in server settings, thanks
[07:58] <skar> slippyr4: go to edit->preferences -> networks -> freenode -> edit, enter ur pass and nick in those tabs, should work now
[07:58] <dooglus> Supre_Me: it checks the partition every time you boot?  and what happens?  does it find errors?
[07:58] <[GuS] > dooglus, same.. is trying... but nothing
[07:58] <[GuS] > maybe is a global network problem here near my country?
[07:58] <ChokingJaik> I'm running Ubuntu Live right now, and want to create a dual boot of XP & Ubuntu. Is there a way to repartition without loosing any information?
[07:58] <[GuS] > a DNS problems or so
[07:58] <[GuS] > because others URL works fine
[07:58] <dooglus> [GuS] : DNS is fine, we tested that
[07:58] <Supre_Me> dooglus: yes, some kind of bufferread error... usually happends every time I boot. Just managed to change my xorg.conf thrue nano but when starting x I get no response
[07:59] <[GuS] > yep....
[07:59] <GhostFreeman> Ok, Gnome hangs on startup for me
[07:59] <dooglus> Supre_Me: you should fix the filesystem error first, before worrying about X
[07:59] <IndyGunFreak> ChokingJaik: yes, but you should have a current backup before doing so, so if something does go wrong.
[07:59] <slippyr4> skar, AlexC_ I dont have an edit menu ?!
[07:59] <Wuilliam> hi to all, i need help, i have ubuntu 6.10 64bit, i cant to install java neither flash, i was following some guides, but i cant, now firefox closes when a plugin run (i think) are some1 than can help me. Im BAD whit english
[07:59] <AlexC_> slippyr4: the button on the side, says Edit
[07:59] <skar> slippyr4: hmm maybe options->preferences?
[07:59] <GhostFreeman> I can start it in Failsafe mode without any problems but it fails to load any of the required processes at startup, forcing me to restart X

[07:59] <ElllisD> anyone ever seen the main panel refuse to resize?
[07:59] <socalledchange> hello. for some reason my root filesystem is mounted read only, how can i fix this
[08:00] <socalledchange> root@ubuntu:/# mount -w -o remount /

[08:00] <alimurat> hi everybody
[08:00] <AlexC_> hi,
[08:00] <IndyGunFreak> !hello
[08:00] <ubotu> hello: The classic greeting, and a good example. In component main, is optional. Version 2.1.1-4 (edgy), package size 47 kB, installed size 472 kB
[08:00] <ChokingJaik> IndyGunFreak: That's what I am afraid of. I just got a vaio, and I don't like windows on it. I've never been a big fan of windows. I went through, and Ubuntu seems like the way to go for linux.
[08:00] <alimurat> I'm fresh back in ubuntu again..=)
[08:01] <IndyGunFreak> ChokingJaik: well, you need to backup your data before doing anything with the main hard drive like partitioning, etc.
[08:01] <chamberlain> awesome alimurat
[08:01] <IndyGunFreak> ChokingJaik: you'll generally only lose data if you screw up,
[08:02] <slippyr4> AlexC_, skar I have a "Settings" menu - no button on the side saying edit?! settings | preferences has a network option, but that has network setup  file transfers tabs, nothing seems to match what you describe.
[08:02] <[GuS] > damn
[08:02] <alimurat> yeah I hope it's gonna be so, ..awesome
[08:02] <dooglus> Supre_Me: while in rescue mode, fix the partition
[08:02] <AlexC_> slippyr4: did you install xchat or xchat-gnome ?
[08:02] <[GuS] > the problem was my firewall dooglus
[08:02] <alimurat> but need help sometimes
[08:02] <ChokingJaik> Thanks for the help. I'll probably be asking questions again, since this is the first time I've used ubuntu.
[08:02] <dooglus> [GuS] : strange.
[08:02] <[GuS] > thats weirddd
[08:02] <skar> slippyr4: i've 0.11 of xchat, what version do u run?
[08:02] <[GuS] > yeah
[08:02] <alimurat> :D
[08:02] <chamberlain> alimurat, any problems?
[08:02] <IndyGunFreak> slippyr4: edit/preferences/networks/highlight freenode/click edit
[08:02] <Supre_Me> dooglus: euhm, how?
[08:02] <dooglus> [GuS] : firewall on your linux box, or a standalone?
[08:02] <alimurat> yeah
[08:02] <[GuS] > why is blocking that url...
[08:02] <D--> I can't believe I'm writing a ramfs in php >_<
[08:02] <slippyr4> AlexC_, xchat, not xchat-gnome
[08:02] <[GuS] > dooglus, i use firestarter
[08:03] <IndyGunFreak> sounds like youre using x-chat gnome
[08:03] <AlexC_> slippyr4: that could be why, they have different interfaces/buttons in different places
[08:03] <alimurat> the first problem is... I have a ati radeon 9200se
[08:03] <alimurat> :)
[08:03] <chamberlain> awesome, so do i :D
[08:03] <alimurat> cool...:)
[08:03] <slippyr4> AlexC_, why multiple interfaces?
[08:03] <alimurat> could you solve it
[08:03] <alimurat> ?..:)
[08:03] <IndyGunFreak> cuz X-chat is for the devil.
[08:03] <[GuS] > i've disabled firestarter and now works... but this url with the firewalll enabled was working the other days
[08:03] <chamberlain> whats the problem with it?
[08:03] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[08:03] <slippyr4> AlexC_, is xchat-gnome better? should i install it?
[08:03] <AlexC_> slippyr4: different, not multiple. xchat is not xchat-gnome and xchat-gnome is not xchat
[08:03] <GhostFreeman> How do I resume a system update that was stopped by an accident, such as a power outage?
[08:03] <AlexC_> slippyr4: I always use xchat-gnome ... personal preferences I guess, some like tea some like coffee
[08:04] <alimurat> well, i get used to work in 1100 some resolution, it's now only 1024x768
[08:04] <alimurat> in fact...
[08:04] <IndyGunFreak> AlexC_: and some like cappucino(irssi)... :)
[08:04] <`underOATH-linux> how do i go about installing and setting up an eggdrop on ubuntu?
[08:04] <Fibbs> Hi all
[08:04] <alimurat> the real problem is not only the card
[08:04] <chamberlain> hmm, ive found 1024x768 to be fine
[08:04] <chamberlain> and what else is wrong alimurat
[08:04] <alimurat> the real problem is me and the card
[08:05] <alimurat> i saw in the ati's web site that they build up a new driver for linux
[08:05] <alimurat> downloaded it
[08:05] <Fibbs> I have problems running edgy eft as domU in xen, i can't find a kernel image to use with. Isnt there any package to install like linux-image-xenU or something like this?
[08:05] <slippyr4> AlexC_, that leads me to another question - as i look at syaptic, having done a search for xchat, some of the packages (including xchat-gnome) have the ubuntu logo in the second column (next to the selected checkbox). what does that signify here?
[08:05] <alimurat> but don't know how to install
[08:05] <AlexC_> !enter | alimurat
[08:05] <ubotu> alimurat: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[08:05] <greenman> hi.  How do I find what version of OS i'm using?
[08:05] <IndyGunFreak> System/About Menu
[08:05] <chamberlain> ok, i reccomend using the howto on http://www.ubuntuguide.org, it worked very well
[08:05] <AlexC_> slippyr4: not sure to be honest, I never use synaptic (I prefer terminal)
[08:05] <dooglus> !fsck
[08:05] <ubotu> fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot
[08:05] <alimurat> I'm just too new to use terminal as a root
[08:05] <greenman> IndyGunFreak: i mean fromt eh command line...
[08:06] <GhostFreeman> Anyone know why Gnome is crashing for me at the splash screen?
[08:06] <IndyGunFreak> greenman: oh.
[08:06] <dooglus> Supre_Me: see that 'fsck' line from ubotu?  that's how
[08:06] <slippyr4> AlexC_, ok thanks
[08:06] <greenman> ah
[08:06] <greenman> uname -a
[08:06] <greenman> thanks
[08:06] <Supre_Me> dooglus: ok
[08:06] <IndyGunFreak> greenman:  i'm not sure on CLI, i know to find your kernal version its uname -r
[08:07] <chamberlain> oh alimurat, the link on that guide is : http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Edgy_Installation_Guide
[08:07] <slippyr4> AlexC_, i've now found the option in my version of xchat, so i think i'll stick with this for now
[08:07] <AlexC_> slippyr4: ok cool, glad you found it
[08:08] <dyrne> GhostFreeman: if you create a new user is it crashing for them as well? it crashes after you login correct?
[08:08] <thehumanerror> Greets
[08:08] <GhostFreeman> No, I have no other users

[08:08] <Prometheum> Hello, can anyone help me getting my sound to work on a HDA-Nvidia MCP51 card? I have trawled the forums, tried compiling the latest ALSA, but nothing works. Can anyone help?
[08:08] <GhostFreeman> I think it might have been caused by a premature exit by my system during an update
[08:08] <Supre_Me> dooglus: do you think another reinstall might fix my problem? I have a homepartition with all my important stuff anyway
[08:08] <snake> hi all. i have a problem running beryl. i installed the nvidia 9xx drivers and it says that no screen found so i have to install the drivers every time i reboot
[08:08] <alimurat> thanks a lot, it was very helpful, that's all done correct now, my monitor is extremely and strangely shows everything as clear as ...
[08:08] <AlexC_> snake: #ubuntu-effects
[08:09] <thehumanerror> I want to add a user that my housemates can use for SMB file sharing, but it doesn't need a home directory
[08:09] <alimurat> (?)
[08:09] <thehumanerror> so, how can I set it to not have a home directory, in the same way that setting the shell to /bin/false disallows logon
[08:09] <dooglus> Supre_Me: it's possible, but maybe the hard disk is physically damaged
[08:09] <ToddEDM> hey crimeboy, what was that command you gave me, for shutting down X
[08:09] <thehumanerror> please
[08:09] <AlexC_> thehumanerror: man useradd
[08:09] <alimurat> (kidding, it looks like I can try...:))
[08:10] <yeniklasor> ToddEDM: ctrl alt escape
[08:10] <`underOATH-linux> how do i configure "eggdrop"? i installed it in synaptic but i don't know where the files for it are.
[08:10] <Supre_Me> dooglus: yes, could be that. But I'm not 100% sure. I had problems before getting my livecd to run without a hard disk
[08:10] <slakkr> Im typing apt-get libxine-extracodecs it's giving me an invalid operation, whats the problem with the command?
[08:10] <AlexC_> thehumanerror: just don't specify -d I guess,
[08:10] <dyrne> thehumanerror: or just add normally and edit /etc/passwd with text editor
[08:10] <Prometheum> Can anyone help me? I have been trying to install support for my HDA-Nvidia MCP51 card. I have compiled and installed ALSA-1.0.14rc, but it hasn't fixed anything. Can anyone help me?
[08:10] <AlexC_> slakkr: sudo apt-get install <package>
[08:10] <slakkr> ty

[08:11] <ToddEDM> but X is still running
[08:11] <slakkr> no install candidates*
[08:11] <grnwood> anybody have edgy hang when installing on a T60p (centriino dual with fire gl ati)?
[08:12] <AlexC_> `underOATH-linux: hum, maybe /etc/eggdrop/eggdrop.conf ... no idea. do "man eggdrop"
[08:12] <Prometheum> I've searched all the wiki's and forums for the past week. There's a large amount of traffic in here and I could only see my own message for a few seconds. Excuse me for repeating so fast, but I'm getting rather desperate. Can anyone help me?
[08:12] <GhostFreeman> where does Gnome keep its logs?
[08:12] <ToddEDM> what im trying to do is install some nvidia drivers
[08:12] <dyrne> GhostFreeman: well you could alt-ctrl-f2 then login then rm -fr .g* then alt-ctrl-f7 and try to login again.  if its an issue with your profile that should fix
[08:12] <Prometheum> ToddEDM: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[08:12] <khermans__> can anyone tell me why Ubuntu Server starts up so incredibly fast compared to Red Hat Server?  what are the default packages in Ubuntu Server
[08:12] <grnwood> Simply cannot get the live cd to boot for an install on edgy
[08:12] <AlexC_> khermans__: no idea, but I agree! It starts up so damm fast, I love it
[08:12] <`underOATH-linux> AlexC_: Nothing there about where the config file is located :/
[08:13] <khermans__> is there a way to determine how many and what packages are in Ubuntu Server without installation/
[08:13] <dyrne> khermans__: default is a stripped desktop install. you apt-get whatever server daemons you want
[08:13] <grnwood> locks up at some point prior to firing up X
[08:13] <Prometheum> ToddEDM: that will close gnome and all open apps, but it'll let you install the nvidia drivers
[08:13] <AlexC_> `underOATH-linux: locate eggdrop
[08:13] <dyrne> khermans__: i believe
[08:13] <GhostFreeman> i'll give it a shot
[08:13] <khermans__> dyrne, of course, but so is RHEL Server with no GUI., but Ubuntu is faster to boot, so fast
[08:13] <ToddEDM> thanks
[08:13] <slakkr> I can't install mp3 or Flash support on Ubuntu Drake, It's getting pretty frustrating, if someone could direct me to the forum link that gives me the commands and everything (I've seen it before) i'd be more than happy :D
[08:13] <Prometheum> ToddEDM: what drivers are you trying to install?
[08:13] <AlexC_> !restricted | slakkr
[08:13] <ubotu> slakkr: 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
[08:13] <AlexC_> slakkr: I gave you them before :P
[08:14] <`underOATH-linux> AlexC_: Nothing found
[08:14] <dyrne> khermans__: maybe a reflection of upstart vs trad init?
[08:14] <khermans__> dyrne, whats upstart?
[08:14] <ToddEDM> Prometheum:  some video driver... not even sure if its the right one
[08:14] <Supre_Me> dooglus: ok, i'm booting from the CD again and I get these buffer errors again.. it says: buffer I/0 error on device hdc, logical block 357564. It's these kind of stuff that happends on almost every boot up
[08:14] <dyrne> !upstart
[08:14] <ubotu> Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model.  For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/
[08:14] <khermans__> dyrne, nice!
[08:14] <Prometheum> ToddEDM: make sure you have all of the open source ones removed before installing the binaries, that'll lead to the "version mismatch" error. Also, comment out the DRI line.
[08:15] <khermans__> dyrne, how can i prove this?
[08:15] <ToddEDM> ohhh christ, all i want is to get this scrolling undr control
[08:15] <ToddEDM> its sooo slow
[08:15] <dooglus> Supre_Me: run "mount" to see what's mounted where, then run "fsck /dev/<whatever>" on the root partition to fix it
[08:15] <Prometheum> ToddEDM: this is the best guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaManual?highlight=%28NvidiaManual%29
[08:16] <`underOATH-linux> AlexC_: http://projectmayhem.phpnet.us/Screenshot.png i know it's installed. it just can't find it anywhere
[08:16] <Supre_Me> dooglus: thrue the live cd? in a terminal?
[08:16] <ToddEDM> thanks Prometheum
[08:17] <thehumanerror> yeah, thanks I know how to use useradd, I'm trying to do it the Ubuntu / GNOME way
[08:17] <thehumanerror> I'm just going to remove the reference to the home directory in /etc/passwd and delete it
[08:17] <Prometheum> ToddEDM: no problem, I had the same issue when I first started with Linux. Be thankful you're with nvidia, other comanies don't care about *nix as much
[08:17] <jaldrich> does ubuntu use plist
[08:17] <jaldrich> in the lib
[08:17] <thehumanerror> if their shell is set to /bin/false they shouldn't be able to log in so nothing will ever try to use it
[08:18] <ToddEDM> hey Prometheum ,Linux AMD64/EM64T would be for turion64 x2?
[08:18] <jaldrich> when is the new kbuntu
[08:18] <jaldrich> coming out
[08:18] <Supre_Me> dooglus: ah whatever, i'll just try to reinstall my / swap and boot
[08:18] <teeL> No subnet declaration for eth1 (192.168.62.55) - Please write a subnet declaration in your dhcpd.conf. What should i write there? eth1 is internet =P
[08:18] <jaldrich> with berly
[08:19] <khermans__> Ubuntu Server uses upstart and boots incredibly fast -- is this because of upstart?
[08:19] <Prometheum> ToddEDM: yes, it would
[08:19] <slakkr> how do you uninstall packages in Ubuntu
[08:19] <ToddEDM> cool, i picked the right one
[08:19] <slakkr> I installed the wrong Automatix
[08:19] <slakkr> :\
[08:19] <ToddEDM> lol
[08:19] <dyrne> khermans__: well the first scenario is that redhat server install is just bloated id check /etc/init.d to see what stuff you have running on both systems. im not too familiar with upstart and still a little bitter that i have to learn a new init system ;p
[08:19] <`underOATH-linux> slakkr: you can do that in synaptic
[08:19] <RxDx> slakkr, DEB? sudo dpkg -i package.deb
[08:19] <Prometheum> ToddEDM: you want the script NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64xxxx
[08:19] <`underOATH-linux> slakkr: or wait. no you can't
[08:19] <slakkr> :(
[08:20] <`underOATH-linux> slakkr: sudo apt-remove automatix ?
[08:20] <slakkr> command not found
[08:20] <`underOATH-linux> hrmmm
[08:20] <yomm> which xorg  driver should I use for a gma900 graphical chipset ?
[08:21] <`underOATH-linux> slakkr: sudo apt-get remove automatix
[08:21] <ToddEDM> ok, now my question is, is there a way to copy text, then after i shutdown gnome, paste it in the command line? or am i gonna just have to write it down
[08:21] <`underOATH-linux> slakkr: if that doesn't work than i have no idea cause that should work
[08:21] <slakkr> wtf
[08:21] <Supre_Me> is this a correct setup for partitions? (80 gig drive) 128 mb ext2 /boot, 1 gig /swap, 10 gig / ext3, 63.41 gig ext3 /home? does it look good?
[08:21] <slakkr> says it's not installed
[08:21] <slakkr> lol
[08:21] <`underOATH-linux> lol
[08:21] <`underOATH-linux> well at least i had the right command
[08:21] <`underOATH-linux> :P
[08:22] <marx2k> 128M for boot is huge
[08:22] <slakkr> nvm I got it
[08:22] <slakkr> :)
[08:22] <`underOATH-linux> lol k

[08:23] <patrick_> ubuntu 64bit seems not to recompile new kernels. I have errors and it doesnt make the .Deb to install .....Hi all!

[08:28] <slippyr4> openarena not in synaptic? this is  google affair?
[08:28] <HymnToLife> blaze, we don't endorse ilegal activities here
[08:28] <HymnToLife> slippyr4, funny, in Debian it is

[08:36] <zeus> thanx
[08:36] <slippyr4> theinfinity: all hardware on it seems to work (although my mb doesn't use nvidia audio, it has some cheapo-hd audio chip on it instead). i'm using it in a server-type machine with a raid controller etc.
[08:36] <crimsun> Prometheum: it's probably bug 88452
[08:37] <Prometheum> crimsun: could you give me a link?
[08:37] <crimsun> Prometheum: launchpad.net/bugs/88452
[08:37] <Prometheum> slippyr4: Could you link me your resource or tell me if the nvidia c51m is stable? Thats the chipset I have, and there's a suspicious hotfix on the nvidia site.
[08:37] <Prometheum> crimsun: thanks
[08:38] <Intangir> are there any messenger clients that are text based?

[08:39] <slippyr4> Prometheum, what do you mean "link me to your resource" ? i've had no problems with my board at all
[08:39] <slippyr4> TheInfinity : an asus a8n-vm-csm (with a x2 4200+ in it)
[08:40] <Prometheum> slippyr4: did you use a web resource to tell that other person if there were any issues with his board? If not, I apologise.
[08:40] <dakira> Any commandline wizards here? in a shell script I want to remove quotes and semicolons from a string in a variable.
[08:40] <dakira> i.e. the variable contains 'hello'; and i want it just to contain hello
[08:40] <Pensa`MIA> where are the gnome sounds stored?
[08:40] <TheInfinity> ah ... *hmm* ...
[08:40] <TheInfinity> thanks :)
[08:40] <slippyr4> Prometheum, no i didn't: he asked if anyone was using a nforce 430 and was it ok. I said i was, uptime 43 days
[08:40] <Prometheum> slippyr4: okay, sorry
[08:41] <Intangir> are there any messenger clients that are text based?
[08:41] <Matic`Makovec> Hm, what would be the easiest way to install flashplayer? If I download that .tar.gz and try to ./flashplayer-install I come to the point where I must write the path to where it should be installed but the programm says it's not a valid path even though it's the same as in example that the installation thingie says. Any other suggestions?
[08:41] <Intangir> like AIM/icq/msn text based clients on linux
[08:41] <TheInfinity> i want to build a little server and watched for motherboards which are compatible
[08:41] <slippyr4> Prometheum, sorry i can't help you further. although i can give you config files from my box if you want to compare anything (not sure what you'd want a look at, i don't know much about alsa))
[08:41] <Intangir> Matic`Makovec: worked fine for me
[08:41] <Matic`Makovec> That doesn't help much to be honest :)
[08:41] <Intangir> i just pressed enter like 3 times
[08:41] <Intangir> i ran it as a user
[08:41] <Intangir> i only log on as 1 name
[08:41] <Intangir> you can copy those plugins manually though
[08:42] <Prometheum> slippyr4: I have no idea what's broken, my sound stopped after a crash, and restarted after sudo modprobe snd-intel8x0, but now nothing will work. Curiously, Cedega has sound.
[08:42] <slippyr4> Prometheum, you say it restarted after the modprobe. but it's broken? so did it stop working again?
[08:43] <Matic`Makovec> I'm doing it now as root since I've done it as normal user and it obviusly didn't make any effect but it said that it was installed succesfully

[08:44] <Prometheum> slippyr4: Yes, the next time I booted I had no sound, and doing sudo modprobe again did nothing. I notice that in 2.6.20 there's a sound fix, is there any way to reload that kernel?

[08:44] <Intangir> what?
[08:44] <slippyr4> Prometheum, is it still in your kernels list in grub?
[08:44] <Intangir> Matic`Makovec: its just for flash, like goto youtube it should work now
[08:45] <Prometheum> slippyr4: what file would that be, I dont' know off-hand
[08:45] <Intangir> !enter
[08:45] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[08:45] <Intangir> what is this?
[08:45] <Prometheum> slippyr4: I upgraded to feisty in an attemp to fix this, and so far everything has been good except sound
[08:45] <Intangir> lol nevermind.. HAHAH
[08:45] <Chamuco> anyone knows a how to for mapping the extended keys on a keyboard like the volume knob etc
[08:45] <Matic`Makovec> Intangir, it doesn't.
[08:46] <Intangir> Matic`Makovec: weird, it worked for me, fresh edgy install, ran that as user, logged into youtube, watched some movies ;)
[08:46] <Matic`Makovec> Tried the same, it still wants me to install the flash player
[08:47] <Intangir> did you close firefox first?
[08:47] <Prometheum> slipp: apparently I'm in 2.6.20, my sound is still not here. Is there any way to reload my default sound options? This has been working since 2.6.11
[08:47] <Matic`Makovec> Yes, well...unless it required the downloads as well..
[08:48] <Intangir> ?
[08:49] <Matic`Makovec> requires* and I meant being closed
[08:49] <Alam_Ubuntu> Matic`Makovec, add "deb http://mirror.ubuntulinux.nl edgy-seveas all #Seaveas" to your source.list to get flashplugin-nonfree 9.0.21.78~ubuntu1~edgy1
[08:49] <Chamuco> what the... was that?
[08:49] <Ktron> Anyone know of a good resource to use to look up detailed information on xorg.conf or troubleshooting xorg.conf(s)?
[08:49] <Chamuco> ?
[08:49] <Answer> Anybody got WEP key index 4 to work?
[08:49] <bert_> hey I was wondering if I can have multiple users owning one directory?
[08:50] <Pici> !netsplit
[08:50] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[08:50] <Matic`Makovec> Alam_Ubuntu, thanks
[08:50] <Answer> bert_, one use can own the directory, but you can put multiple users in a group and give the group permissions
[08:50] <mjunx> hey, if I'm rebuild an install CD with updated packages, will those packages be installed instead when I use that CD?
[08:51] <kazim59> hello... i m on dapper... i want to use my microphone for skype
[08:51] <kazim59> how do i do it?
[08:51] <bert_> Alright, how do I find out what group www-data belongs to?
[08:51] <Answer> bert_, www-data is the groups.  assign the users in /etc/groups
[08:51] <mjunx> bert_, www-data owns www-data
[08:51] <bert_> thanks
[08:51] <Answer> Anybody got WEP key index 4 to work?
[08:51] <kazim59> How do i configure my mic to work on ubuntu... its inbuilt...
[08:52] <kazim59> i m confused about options in gnome-volume-applet
[08:52] <Matic`Makovec> Which MSN client would you guys recommend by the way? Gaim? Or something other?
[08:53] <ucordes> i can't use key combinations with ctrl+alt in fluxbox. in CLIs and in gnome it works fine. how can i fix this?
[08:53] <kazim59> no answers
[08:55] <ucordes> kazim59: what's your problem?
[08:55] <yomm> !i810
[08:55] <teeL> Can someone help me with my dhcpd.conf file? I get No subnet declaration for eth1 (192.168.62.55). dhcpd.conf = http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7834/
[08:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about i810 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:56] <mindstate> how could i update my OpenGL Drivers  im using this Mesa stuff and i think its hindering me from using cedega
[08:56] <bert_> I want to make sure I have my command down before I wreak havock on my system. If I was dir1 to have user1 and group1 be owners I would use chown user1 group1 dir1 0775?
[08:56] <tm4-> mindstate: do you have an ati or nvidia?
[08:56] <ucordes> mindstate: you are right. with mesa you have no direct rendering
[08:56] <mindstate> ati
[08:56] <mindstate> tm4-, ati
[08:56] <mindstate> ucordes, but glxinfo |grep direct says yes to direct rendering
[08:56] <tm4-> and are you using edgy?
[08:57] <mindstate> tm4-, yes i am
[08:57] <marx2k> !envy
[08:57] <ubotu> envy is a Python script that eases installation of the official Nvidia and ATI drivers. Please see http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html . Developers may be interested in https://launchpad.net/products/envy - See also !Nvidia
[08:57] <Answer> How can I setup /etc/network/interfaces to do WEP key index 4?
[08:57] <tm4-> okay, cool - have you been using the driver packaged with ubuntu or the fglrx driver?
[08:57] <ucordes> !ati | mindstate
[08:57] <ubotu> mindstate: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:57] <tm4-> envy broke everything for me yesterday. i don't recommend it.
[08:57] <marx2k> :(
[08:57] <tm4-> yeah lol
[08:57] <mindstate> tm4-, the default ubuntu driver..fglrx is compatible with my version of Radeon card
[08:58] <ucordes> mindstate: what makes you think yo uahve mesa?
[08:58] <mindstate> ucordes, glxinfo |grep version tells me i do
[08:58] <mjunx> !version
[08:58] <ubotu> To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[08:58] <mjunx> no, I wanted to know what software runs ubotu ._.
[08:58] <mjunx> !ubotu > mjunx
[08:58] <tm4-> mindstate: i'm a fan of the driver packaged with ubuntu, so that's good - but you were saying you were having trouble with direct rendering?
[08:58] <kazim59> ucordes: i dont know how to get my mic working under dapper
[08:59] <kazim59> ucordes: i m on a laptop
[08:59] <kazim59> ucordes: sound recorder does not record anything
[08:59] <hstuart> probably got caught in the netsplit, so... is there a boot switch for the feisty livecd that allows me to get into runlevel 1 (or just not start gdm/X)? the usual nosplash 1 -- from earlier versions don't seem to work.
[08:59] <bert_> I want to make sure I have my command down before I wreak havock on my system. If I was dir1 to have user1 and group1 be owners I would use chown user1 group1 dir1?
[08:59] <mindstate> tm4-, well when i do glxinfo |grep direct it tells me i have direct rendering , but when i try to run a game in cedega its telling me my video card doesnt support 3d
[08:59] <Answer> How can I setup /etc/network/interfaces to do WEP key index 4?
[08:59] <ucordes> mindstate: well then you do :) i think mesa is somehow simulating a direct rendering environment
[08:59] <marx2k> kazim: use alsamixer in console to turn your mic on
[09:00] <ucordes> mindstate: but this won't get you far
[09:00] <tm4-> mindstate: in a terminal, type lspci | grep "ATI Tech" and paste the input here
[09:00] <ucordes> kazim59: ah i know that problem - i think you need to select a different audio input device. but don't ask me how
[09:00] <poi> hi, i extracted java1.6 now I want to run "update-alternatives --config java". what do I have to do that java 1.6 shows up. or do I have to configure anything else? I use ubuntu 6.06
[09:00] <marx2k> Answer: type 'man interfaces'
[09:01] <bert_> or should I use chown user1:group1 dir1?
[09:01] <mindstate> tm4 ok
[09:01] <Answer> marx2k, that man page in now way references wep key index 4.  thanks for the obvious retort tho
[09:01] <tm4-> and by input i meant output ;)
[09:01] <mindstate> i know
[09:01] <mindstate> lol
[09:01] <trymmi> join themaelstrom
[09:01] <mindstate> tm4-, 00:03.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon RV100 QY [Radeon 7000/VE] 
[09:02] <kazim59> ucordes: in alsamixer in capture tab
[09:02] <trymmi> lol typo :P
[09:02] <tm4-> mindstate okay, good.
[09:03] <tm4-> now, in the terminal whenever you type glxinfo what's the output?
[09:03] <tm4-> (also, when you type glxgears are the gears turning smoothly and relatively quickly?)
[09:03] <mindstate> tm4-, glxinfo gives me a bunch of stuff
[09:03] <tm4-> mindstate okay, one sec
[09:03] <kazim59> ucordes: i can't enable the MIC CAPTUR L R one... why? i pressed space, up, M all keys
[09:03] <mindstate> tm4-, and glxgears..theyre moving pretty smooth
[09:04] <marx2k> !glxgears
[09:04] <ubotu> To display the FPS in glxgears, run 'glxgears -printfps' in a terminal.
[09:04] <tm4-> mindstate: does your xorg.conf file correspond to everything from here down: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver#head-0476c5f6d1013b85b4e1fa65205b00e3f9262d3c   ?
[09:04] <mindstate> tm4-, let me check
[09:04] <tm4-> mindstate, okay - just lemme know when you have checked everything
[09:05] <mindstate> tm4-,
[09:05] <mindstate> ok
[09:06] <mindstate> tm4-, no theres some things missing from my xorg that is on ther
[09:06] <mindstate> there
[09:06] <kazim59> ucordes: set the capture to full... but no recording yet.... also m not able to enable MIC CAPTUR L R its zero
[09:06] <tm4-> mindstate make a copy of your xorg.conf just in case something messes up (sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.working) and then make those modifications
[09:07] <mindstate> tm4-, alrighty
[09:07] <tm4-> mindstate: after that, save it, close your applications, hit ctrl+alt+backspace to restart X and see if that works
[09:07] <tm4-> you _should_ get acceleration after that
[09:07] <mindstate> tm4-, ok
[09:07] <mindstate> tm4-, but the page says Radeon  9600..should i keep my identifier the same?
[09:08] <marx2k> yes
[09:08] <techie1> hello all. Has anybody here heard of Acronis disk director for repartitioning? If so have you used it for installing any other OS's?
[09:08] <marx2k> techie1, I use gparted
[09:08] <marx2k> works fine
[09:08] <kelnoky> ok, who can solve the mystery: my PC boots perfectly now. I got two hdds attached to the board. but as soon as I connect my third hdd to my third sata slot it won't boot anymore, the error message being that it can't read the fstab (no such file or directory) and also cant mount /root/dev nor /sys nor /proc - all because of no such file or dir
is that a visual partitioner?
easy to use
[09:08] <marx2k> yup
[09:08] <kelnoky> thats my fstab: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7835/
[09:09] <marx2k> !gparted
[09:09] <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
[09:09] <tm4-> mindstate: go ahead and keep it the same - according to that page, 7000 has full 3d support..
[09:09] <tm4-> ..so don't change anything except adding lines
[09:09] <mindstate> tm4-, alright
[09:09] <tm4-> just add the AIGLX "true", composite, etc, etc
[09:09] <mindstate> ok
so do you use it as you use the ubuntu livecd or must you download and burn separately?
[09:10] <ardchoille> !bot | techie1
[09:10] <ubotu> techie1: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[09:10] <marx2k> you can use it as you use the ubuntu  livecd, but the ubuntu livecd has an old version of gparted which lacks left-directional partition growth
[09:10] <ardchoille> !sysresccd
[09:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sysresccd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
do you donwload gparted separately or use as part of the ubuntu livecd?
[09:10] <mindstate> tm4-, in the server layout section..should i replace the entire section? or just add to it?
[09:10] <mindstate> nvm
[09:10] <tm4-> mindstate: give me one sec, lemme check
[09:10] <tm4-> ah okay
[09:10] <marx2k> you can do either, but note my warning above
[09:11] <Pici> its !rescue ardchoille
[09:11] <mindstate> tm4-, i believe i should replace it all
where is the warning I missed it since this is going so fast in here
[09:11] <tm4-> mindstate: lemme read first, one sec
[09:11] <mindstate> tm4-, ok
[09:11] <bluesign> hi guys, i messed with lib dir, and now it hangs on splash screen, I am on a live cd now and how can I recover my ubuntu?
[09:11] <marx2k> you can use it as you use the ubuntu  livecd, but the ubuntu livecd has an old version of gparted which lacks left-directional partition growth
[09:11] <tm4-> mindstate, here's what i suggest...
[09:12] <doseryder>  Does anyone know how to reconfigure GRUB so that BIOS will recognize it as the main bootup partition?  I have 3 partitions on the same drive (XP being the initial installation, ubuntu being the second, vista third and is the cause to this whole problem)
[09:12] <tm4-> mindstate, at the top of the server layout section, just type Option "AIGLX" "true"    do you have anything significaly different than what's on that page?
[09:12] <mando> Hi, can I use wine to run CS? Is wine the best choice? THX 4 helping ;)
[09:12] <teeL> Can someone help me with my dhcpd.conf file? I get No subnet declaration for eth1 (192.168.62.55). dhcpd.conf = http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7834/
ok, i got it now. But if I burned separate how do I use it. Meaning. I use the gpart by rebooting and once done, reboot again with the live ubuntu cd? Please correct me if wrong.
[09:12] <mindstate> tm4-, i have a couple of input device entries that arent on the page
[09:12] <tm4-> doseryder: i dunno if i understand your question. is grub on its own partition?
[09:12] <mindstate> for stylus cursor and eraser
[09:12] <atomiku> !ipmasquerading
[09:12] <tm4-> mindstate: no sweat about those - leave them there, they are fine and are probably necessary for some of your hardware
[09:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ipmasquerading - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:13] <ardchoille> Pici: Thanks, but I was looking for http://sysresccd.org/Main_Page
[09:13] <atomiku> !ip-masquerading
[09:13] <mindstate> tm4-, ok so i just add that AIGLX part
[09:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ip-masquerading - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:13] <tm4-> mindstatate yeah, that's all you need i think
[09:13] <atomiku> So, how do I set up IP masquerading?
[09:13] <bluesign> any chance for me to recover my ubuntu, with a live cd?
[09:13] <tm4-> doseryder: is grub on its own partition or what? are you having problems booting?
did you get my previous question or should I repeat?
[09:13] <marx2k> techie1, the gpartedcd is a livecd
[09:13] <mindstate> tm4-, ok im going to restart now.. brb
[09:13] <atomiku> I tried before but it didnt work because the masquerading entry in the ip tables or chain or something wasnt in the right order
[09:14] <tm4-> mindstate: okay
ok, i got it. so after i used the livecd, just reboot and put the ubuntu livecd. Right?
[09:14] <marx2k> you got it
[09:14] <freejack> atomiku what were you trying to do?
thanks again. I will google and find it to download and burn it.
[09:14] <kelnoky> anyone know a clue to my question?
thanks.

no
[09:15] <doseryder> tm4- Prior to installation of vista (which is a cause to this problem) i had xp (first installation) and ubuntu (2nd install) working flawlessly
where is the site to download from then?
[09:15] <mindstate> tm4-, i think it worked dude
[09:15] <tm4-> mindstate: good job =)
[09:15] <kelnoky> doseryder: vista probably overwrote the mbr
[09:15] <marx2k> its right there
[09:15] <marx2k> http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[09:15] <tm4-> doseryder: did you say that you have Vista AND XP now or just Vista?
ok.
[09:15] <techie1> thanks.
thanks <marx2k>
[09:15] <marx2k> yup
[09:16] <Cyrus25801> hi guys, i need to open a .rar file that is password encrypted. what programm can i use
[09:16] <bluesign> guys, any idea how can I recover my lib dir? i messed with libc and libgcc :(
[09:16] <mindstate> tm4-, no..cedega still isnt working lol
[09:16] <tm4-> doseryder: i've got vista and ubuntu on my box at home - i just need to know if you have XP, and Vista, and Ubuntu or what
[09:16] <marx2k> Cyrus25801, rar should have a password option
[09:16] <tm4-> mindstate: lol - did you do the ctrl+alt+backspace restart?
[09:16] <mindstate> tm4-, yes
[09:16] <Cyrus25801> is the programme called rar
[09:17] <mindstate> tm4-, and now the output of glxinfo |grep vendor says SGI
[09:17] <marx2k> yes
[09:17] <marx2k> and unrar
[09:17] <mindstate> which is wut the page says it should say
[09:17] <Ralthanor> I'm trying to use KNetworkManager, but it says "no network device found."  Any ideas?
[09:17] <tm4-> mindstate: i'm not familiar with cedega so i can't be much more help than what i suggested. =/
[09:17] <tm4-> but yeah, the output is correct
[09:17] <tm4-> hmm
[09:17] <marx2k> !knetworkmanager
[09:17] <ubotu> knetworkmanager: User friendly KDE frontend for NetworkManager. In component main, is optional. Version 0.1-0ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 213 kB, installed size 1448 kB
[09:17] <mindstate> :( argh this is a nightmare lol
[09:18] <doseryder> tm4- Realistically, I have all 3.  After vista installation, GRUB is no longer the default boot loader.  I tried the usual: root (hd0, 4) and setup (hd0)
[09:18] <marx2k> in order to see your wifi device in knetmgr, you need to comment it out in /etc/network/interfaces
[09:18] <tm4-> doseryder: you installed vista _after_ ubuntu?
[09:18] <Cyrus25801> marx2k: thanx
[09:18] <atomiku> So, how do I set up IP masquerading?
[09:18] <marx2k> mindstate, have you rebooted your machine?
[09:18] <dakira> does anyone know a command that gives me the current date as "yymmdd"?
[09:18] <mindstate> marx2k, no just restarted X
[09:18] <marx2k> mindstate, reboot
[09:19] <tm4-> mindstate: marx2k is right - you may need to reboot. it's worth a shot
[09:19] <doseryder> tm4- but that doesn't seem to bring my GRUB back.  yes i installed vista after ubuntu (XP (1)-> Ubuntu(2) -> Vista)
[09:19] <ardchoille> dakira: date +%Y%m%d
[09:19] <ompaul> so I have a custome program that works from in xterm - I did not write it  so can't control what it does, however, it needs F12 which in dapper windowmaker (again I have no choice about the WM) - F12 calls a menu but it should be a command within the terminal, any ideas where to look for a solution?
[09:19] <marx2k> doseryder, use the grub super rescue disk or whatever its called
[09:19] <Cyrus25801> what is a good download manager. something like DAP in windows
[09:19] <mindstate> tm4-, ok
[09:19] <tm4-> doseryder: vista prolly overwrote your mbr. you need to reinstall grub
[09:19] <marx2k> !grub rescue

[09:19] <Marupa> I've got a MX610 Logitech mouse.  It's got 12 buttons...how would I go about mapping them...and how would I go about getting left/right scroll to work?
[09:20] <snowman3388> I'm trying to install an experimental version of audacious but it requires libmcs1 as a dependency. I installed it by downloading it(not through repositories), but it's still coming up as a problem in synaptic.
[09:20] <kelnoky> ok, who can solve the mystery: my PC boots perfectly now. I got two hdds attached to the board. but as soon as I connect my third hdd to my third sata slot it won't boot anymore, the error message being that it can't read the fstab (no such file or directory) and also cant mount /root/dev nor /sys nor /proc - all because of no such file or dir
[09:20] <doseryder> I read the second one already
[09:20] <marx2k> install it through aptitude
[09:20] <Icarus13> i used all the space on my home partition how do i move the /home to a bigger partition?
[09:20] <marx2k> kelnoky, its switching up your hd* numbers
[09:21] <tm4-> doseryder: if i remember correctly, you can also boot with the live cd and install it from command line. really easy that way, too imho
[09:21] <ardchoille> snowman3388: If you install an app outside of the package manager, you're responsible for tracking and installing deps and updates.
[09:21] <kelnoky> marx2k: it is?
[09:21] <lesshaste> every time I turn my laptop on it starts one more copy of nm-applet. Today I have got up to 5!
[09:21] <kelnoky> marx2k: how and where?
[09:21] <ucordes_> my ubuntu stopped making sounds- i'm using this Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 60)
[09:21] <Marupa> I also need new ubuntu toys.
[09:21] <lesshaste> what can I edit to stop this?
[09:21] <kelnoky> my fstab is correct...
[09:21] <yomm> kelnoky ; i suspect adding the 3rd drive messes up the drive order described in your bootloader
[09:21] <tm4-> doseryder: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351
[09:21] <lesshaste> which file controls nm-applet loading at startup?
[09:21] <snowman3388> ardchoille, I don't understand what I have to do
[09:21] <kelnoky> yomm: my bootloader is grub...how can I prevent that?
[09:22] <marx2k> lesshaste, theres a config in nm-applet for that
[09:22] <doseryder> tm4- The weird thing is, If I boot up without pressing f12 key it will boot into XP but if i press f12 and choose to boot from primary sata drive it will recognize GRUB and boot using GRUB
[09:22] <ucordes_> how can i find out what the problem is
[09:22] <ardchoille> snowman3388: You have to track down and install the proper deps for that app.
[09:22] <tm4-> doseryder: do you have a sata drive and a ide drive, by any chance?
[09:22] <mindstate> i dont get why i do glxinfo |grep direct..it tells me i have direct rendering ..but cedega tells me 3d acceleration failed :-\
[09:22] <yomm> kelnoky ; edit (with care & backups ) your /boot/grub/menu/lst
[09:22] <lesshaste> marx2k, how do I find it?
[09:22] <yomm> kelnoky ; edit (with care & backups ) your /boot/grub/menu.lst *
[09:23] <yomm> kelnoky : to match the physical drive configuration
[09:23] <tm4-> mindstate: have you ever had the fglrx drivers installed at all?
[09:23] <lesshaste> marx2k, I can't see it by clicking on the little icon... is that what you meant?
[09:23] <gnomefreak> mindstate: cedega is looking for a name of a package that was renamed
[09:23] <mindstate> tm4-, no , ive reinstalled ubuntu since i had those installed
[09:24] <mindstate> gnomefreak, what do you mean?
[09:24] <tm4-> mindstate: gnomefreak may know more - i've helped all i can =/ good luck!
[09:24] <mindstate> tm4-, thank u
[09:24] <tm4-> (i'm in here frequently so lemme know how it goes)
[09:24] <gnomefreak> iirc its looking for xlib and we no longer use that name
[09:24] <doseryder> tm4- i do have ide drive but i need to mention that all 3 partitions XP, ubuntu and vista are on the sata drive (sda1)
[09:24] <snowman3388> ardchoille, oh okay I know that but, the program I'm trying to install I have added as a repository but it's missing a dependency which is libmcs1 I couldn't find a repository for it but only a download
[09:24] <mindstate> will do tm4-
[09:24] <Cyrus25801> what is a good download manager. something like DAP in windows
[09:24] <doseryder> oops
[09:24] <gnomefreak> !cedega | mindstate
[09:24] <ubotu> mindstate: cedega is a project based on WINE, aimed at running Windows games on Linux. For more info, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cedega
[09:24] <doseryder> tm4- forget about sda1 part that doesn't have to do with it
[09:24] <gnomefreak> mindstate it should give more info on the wiki above unless it was fixed
[09:25] <tm4-> doseryder: then i'm stumped right now =T i'm not exactly sure what to suggest
[09:25] <ardchoille> snowman3388: you're added a repo for the app but the repo is missing deps for that app?
[09:25] <mindstate> gnomefreak, ill take a look at this thanks
[09:25] <kelnoky> yomm: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7836/
[09:25] <snowman3388> ardchoille, yes
[09:25] <kelnoky> thats my menu.lst entry I boot
[09:25] <tm4-> doseryder: it definitely has to do with the microsoft bootloaders, but i've never experienced this before
[09:25] <kelnoky> can't see anything wrong there
[09:25] <gnomefreak> be back later
[09:25] <Trini_Man> how do i install my kernel C header files ?
[09:25] <kelnoky> cause that works perfeclty without the 3rd drive
[09:25] <mindstate> the FPS is below 500 too..
[09:25] <mindstate> :(
[09:26] <ardchoille> snowman3388: Sounds like that repo was not setup correctly. The purpose of a repo is to provide an app and it's deps. You'll have to track down the deps and install them yourself.
[09:26] <marx2k> kelnoky when yorue installing another drive, it probably switches up your drive numbers
[09:26] <Trini_Man> hi everyone
[09:26] <Trini_Man> how do i install my kernel header files ?
[09:26] <kelnoky> marx2k: so how do I change that, or prevent it?
[09:26] <marx2k> hit 'e' from the boot menu and then play with your root drive number until it boots (which is what I did)
[09:26] <kelnoky> hm
[09:26] <atomiku> So, how do I set up IP masquerading?
[09:27] <tonyyarusso> I have dialup for my internet connection, but I also have a wireless broadband router for talking to my other computer from my laptop.  If I connect to the wireless network, DNS to the real internet no longer works.  How can I be connected to both?
[09:27] <tonyyarusso> (Using Network Manager atm, btw)
[09:27] <LiENUS> network manager sucks :(
[09:27] <LiENUS> it wont sign on any wireless networks except my work
[09:27] <yomm> kelnoky : probably the hd listed as (0,0) has been given another number e.g (0,1) because you physically added another hd
[09:28] <apsuva> how to install ubuntu on jmicron sata controller mainboard?
[09:28] <marx2k> I dont like network manager
[09:28] <fr500> hi
[09:28] <snowman3388> ardchoille, I was trying to do that but I couldn't find them in synaptic but I could only find this: http://sacredspiral.co.uk/~nenolod/mcs/ I installed it but ubuntu doesn't seem to register it as being installed, so it's still coming up as a missing dep in synaptic
[09:28] <ardchoille> snowman3388: Be advised that app1 may need dep1, and dep1 may need dep2, and dep2 may need dep3, and so on. This is why I always stick to using official repos.. I've done my time in dependency hell ;)
[09:28] <fr500> how do i create a nicotine account? i installed nicotine but it dones't say anything
[09:28] <freejack> atomiku what are you wantin to setup specifically
[09:28] <Trini_Man> how do i install my kernel header files ?
[09:28] <ompaul> atomiku, remember sudo in place of root but: http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/docs/HOWTO/other-formats/html_single/IP-Masquerade-HOWTO.html
[09:28] <marx2k> ardchoille,  thats usually why you do a source-install from apt-get
[09:28] <marx2k> which usually deals with deps
[09:29] <yomm> kelnoky , so u need to figure out which number your ubuntu drive has in the 3-disk configuration , and then add that number as your boot disk ...
[09:29] <lesshaste> how do I just list upgrades in synaptic?
[09:29] <marx2k> or 'build-dep'
[09:29] <ardchoille> marx2k: Or just stick to the official repos.
[09:29] <marx2k> yeah, you can
[09:30] <marx2k> but if you want to build yourself a newer version of something...
[09:30] <doseryder> tm4- at this link that you sent me https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows it saids that "Don't forget that this method, as described, puts GRUB back on the MBR (master boot record) of the hard drive instead of in the root parititon. This is fine for most people, but not if you already have an alternative boot manager."
[09:30] <ompaul> 2nd call:    I have a custom program that works from within xterm - I did not write it  so can't control what it does, however, it needs F12 which in dapper windowmaker (again I have no choice about the WM) - F1 calls a menu but it should be a command within the terminal, any ideas where to look for a solution?
[09:31] <grindar> can anyone tell me how to get libpcap > 0.9? the repository only goes up to 0.8, and I've downloaded and compiled it, and it doesn't seem to be working
[09:31] <doseryder> tm4- in my case, do i want it grub back on the mbr or the root partittion?
[09:31] <lesshaste> I don't get how to install skype in synaptic
[09:32] <lesshaste> it hangs waiting for you to press ok, which of course you can't do in synaptic
[09:32] <ALMimoni> how to add GTK theme?
[09:32] <higiraven> lesshaste: try to do it through the terminal
[09:32] <ardchoille> !theme | ALMimoni
[09:32] <ubotu> ALMimoni: Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
[09:32] <lesshaste> higiraven, ok.. what is the command to get all upgrades that way?
[09:33] <higiraven> sudo apt-get update followed by sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:33] <ALMimoni> !theme
[09:33] <higiraven> and if you want to install skype.. sudo apt-get install skype
[09:33] <lesshaste> higiraven, thx.. that worked
[09:33] <higiraven> np :)
[09:33] <marx2k> lesshaste: 'sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude  upgrade'
[09:34] <lesshaste> marx2k, what is aptitude?
[09:34] <Matic`Makovec> Okay now. I have this AGP Graphics card (Nvidia 6600 GT) and so I downloaded some nvidia drivers and all that and did nvidia-xconfig. After that I rebooted the computer and X server couldn't start because of Fatal error: no screens found. Does anyone know the most common reason for that issue?
[09:34] <higiraven> lesshaste: its another package management application
[09:35] <grindar> Matic: uh, using x server?
[09:35] <Matic`Makovec> grindar, yes
[09:35] <Matic`Makovec> xorg
[09:35] <marx2k> !aptitude
[09:35] <ubotu> aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT, like apt-get. However, aptitude can remember the dependencies installed with a package and remove them if you uninstall. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptitudeSurvivalGuide
[09:35] <Bored1ed> Hello World
[09:36] <higiraven> yes it actually handles dependencies better
[09:36] <greig_> hey people, can anyone recommend a good video player for avi's etc??
[09:36] <grindar> vlc
[09:36] <higiraven> vlc player
[09:36] <Bored1ed> VLC
[09:36] <greig_> thanks lol VLC it is
[09:36] <marx2k> !vlc
[09:36] <ubotu> Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Banshee, Beep Media Player, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, XMMS (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based).  Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine  -  See also !codecs
[09:37] <Bored1ed> Anyone have a problem with MP3's not playing when trying to play them from a server? It seems to always try to open with Totem as well
[09:37] <slakkr> I installed both EPIC and BitchX through Synaptic but I can't get them to appear in the Applications menu, any idea of how I can access them?
[09:37] <marx2k> Bored1ed, using what kind of fs?samba? nfs?
[09:38] <Bored1ed> they are on a Windows Machine
[09:38] <grindar> well, i gots to bounce
[09:38] <Matic`Makovec> grindar, no idea? :o
[09:38] <grindar> none
[09:38] <slakkr> I installed both EPIC and BitchX through Synaptic but I can't get them to appear in the Applications menu, any idea of how I can access them?
[09:38] <greig_> how do i know what version of ubuntu im running, the name i mean?
[09:38] <slakkr> which # is it greig?
[09:38] <slakkr> 6.06
[09:38] <slakkr> 6.10?
[09:38] <greig_> 6.10 i believe
[09:38] <slakkr> Edgy Eft
[09:39] <greig_> thank u slakkr
[09:39] <slakkr> ;)
[09:39] <tonyyarusso> slakkr: Alt-F2, type the command.  Add them to the menu with System > Prefs > Menu layout
[09:39] <lesshaste> can anyone tell me how to stop 5 copies of nm-applet starting up when I log in?
[09:39] <ardchoille> slakkr: bitchx is a command line app. You can launch it in a terminal.. it won't be in the menus.
[09:39] <lesshaste> presumably it will be 6 next time :)
[09:39] <tonyyarusso> greig_: Open a !terminal, and type lsb_release -a to make sure
[09:39] <slakkr> what would the command be ardchoille
[09:39] <slakkr> ?
[09:39] <eucalre> ?
[09:39] <slakkr> tonyyarusso: and what command would it be to run?
[09:39] <ardchoille> slakkr: bitchx  <- I assume.
[09:39] <slakkr> ty
[09:40] <slakkr> ah nice
[09:40] <slakkr> I got it
[09:40] <slakkr> thanks ardchoille
[09:40] <slakkr> :D
[09:40] <ardchoille> You're welcome :)
[09:41] <lesshaste> help :)
[09:41] <slakkr_> ;) ty
[09:42] <slakkr_> way better than GAIM's client
[09:42] <ardchoille> slakkr_: :)
[09:42] <ardchoille> slakkr_: I use irssi, it's also a cli irc client.
[09:42] <alimurat> hey, everyone who could listen
[09:42] <alimurat> I wanna ask a simple, and also maybe a stupid question...
[09:42] <slakkr_> Idk i just made Ubuntu my primary os today, cause I don't have a driver for my network card to update it, and for some reason Linux will connect but Windows won't so fuck it.
[09:42] <Matic`Makovec> Okay now. I have this AGP Graphics card (Nvidia 6600 GT) and so I downloaded some nvidia drivers and all that and did nvidia-xconfig. After that I rebooted the computer and X server couldn't start because of Fatal error: no screens found. Does anyone know the most common reason for that issue?
[09:43] <higiraven> alimurat: fire
[09:43] <slakkr_> alimurat, sup.
[09:43] <alimurat> what's that? fire?
[09:43] <slakkr_> alimurat, fire your question at us
[09:43] <alimurat> (the question was not that..:)
[09:43] <alimurat> ok..:)
[09:43] <higiraven> hehe
[09:43] <alimurat> I wonder
[09:43] <hellraiser_rob> Matic: how did you install the driver?
[09:43] <ucordes> !scimm
[09:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about scimm - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:43] <marx2k> Matic`Makovec, check the output of 'cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE'
[09:43] <ucordes> !scim
[09:43] <ubotu> Chinese, Japanese, Korean Language input. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SCIM
[09:44] <leeb9972> can anyone help me with this error?
[09:44] <alimurat> why linux has not have a kind of installer, or a way to install stuff easier like windows has?
[09:44] <leeb9972> Package libmysqlclient10-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[09:44] <leeb9972> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[09:44] <leeb9972> is only available from another source
[09:44] <leeb9972> E: Package libmysqlclient10-dev has no installation candidate
[09:44] <Matic`Makovec> The output that which I checked just 10s before you said that said that marx2k :

[09:44] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:44] <Matic`Makovec> So as I understand, nvidia module does not exist
[09:44] <marx2k> !paste
[09:44] <Matic`Makovec> Quite clear, I know :x
[09:44] <marx2k> damn pricechild, youre quick
[09:44] <Matic`Makovec> Pastebin is slacking today
[09:44] <doseryder> Matic: try typing: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:44] <higiraven> alimurat: installing .deb files is really easy
[09:44] <slakkr_> alimurat, well most people that write Linux write it for free on their own time and the way they make it we just gotta be happy with is I guess?
[09:44] <Matic`Makovec> marx2k, I know :)
[09:44] <alimurat> no they are not.
[09:45] <higiraven> just double click
[09:45] <slakkr_> you just gotta get out of the windows type of mind higiraven.
[09:45] <slakkr_> er
[09:45] <alimurat> for small brains like mine, that's not easy
[09:45] <slakkr_> wrong one
[09:45] <slakkr_> :)
[09:45] <doseryder> Matic`Makovec have you tried that?
[09:45] <PriceChild> marx2k, Completely coincidental
[09:45] <higiraven> well in ubuntu you can just use gdebi for installing .deb packages..
[09:45] <alimurat> and I know people who has smaller than me but using windows without these kinda stuff, like terminal etc..
[09:45] <Matic`Makovec> doseryder, just a sec
[09:46] <higiraven> just have to double click and click "Install"
[09:46] <slakkr_> terminal is just like cmd line alimurat
[09:46] <parixa> hi everyone... need some help getting swapon to persist
[09:46] <alimurat> I know
[09:46] <jahid> hi, my browser can browse differnt site when i restart the computer. but after sometime it just cant load any page. can anyone help me about this?
[09:46] <alimurat> but try to ask people who uses that windows
[09:46] <higiraven> or learn how to install packages through the console.. it's really easy
[09:46] <slakkr_> plus linux isn't as vulnerable to viruses/spyware/adware as windows.
[09:46] <alimurat> they even have no idea about the "cmd" in windows
[09:46] <marx2k> jahid are oyu using networkmanager?
[09:47] <leeb9972> anyone installed verlihub on ubuntu?
[09:47] <higiraven> learning is a good thing, I believe
[09:47] <jahid> marx2k, what that?
[09:47] <alimurat> this is cool, I mean, ubuntu, this is a really cool o.s.
[09:47] <ompaul> 3rd call:    I have a custom program that works from within xterm - I did not write it  so can't control what it does, however, it needs F12 which in dapper windowmaker (again I have no choice about the WM) - F1 calls a menu but it should be a command within the terminal, any ideas where to look for a solution?
[09:47] <doseryder> Matic`Makovec recently i had trouble loading my x server when i made a video card upgrade (it was a nvidia too).  I think the command will resolve your problem.  Its a step by step configuration (call it a wizard if u will)
[09:47] <marx2k> jahid: are you using wireless?
[09:47] <jahid> no,i am using DSL connection
[09:47] <higiraven> :)
[09:48] <jahid> marx2k, its directly connected to the internet
[09:48] <alimurat> now I'm downloading a stuff, than I'll install that stuff to install graphic card
[09:48] <parixa> currently I can go to gParted and select swapon on my swap partition. But this is lost when I reboot. Anyone can help with that?
[09:48] <Matic`Makovec> doseryder, I'm just doing that yes. And there's a suggestion I could try with lspci -x and -x option doesn't even exist :o
[09:48] <higiraven> alimurat: you mean drivers?
[09:48] <c03> I can't get my Intel Graphics Chipset 915GM working properly
[09:48] <alimurat> who could do it by him/herself without knowing anything about commands in unix or ms-dos??
[09:48] <alimurat> no one
[09:48] <slakkr_> Plus, if you use Linux alimurat, u can use both Windows and Linux apps :)
[09:48] <Matic`Makovec> So now I'm trying to find out Video's card bus identifier
[09:48] <crzygrndpa> Is there a way to tell what domain names are associated with a given IP address?
[09:48] <alimurat> drivers, programs, games
[09:48] <jahid> marx2k, my xchat is working and i am connected to this room, so seems my internet connection is working fine. but i can't browse webpages
[09:49] <alimurat> i believe we all need a simpler standart way
[09:49] <nutterpc> jahid: hit the router with a hammer
[09:49] <nutterpc> =)
[09:49] <slakkr_> it worked for me
[09:49] <slakkr_> )
[09:49] <higiraven> that might be true. But believe me, windows users also have to learn some basics
[09:49] <jahid> nutterpc, :(
[09:49] <alimurat> (and I name it S.S.W....:P)
[09:49] <marx2k> what is the error you get when you browse pages?
[09:49] <marx2k> can you ping google.com?
[09:49] <nutterpc> jahid: mine has been running smoothly
[09:49] <mindstate> when i glxinfo |grep  vendor .. i get an output of alot of different version #'s for client, server, glx, opengl, and mesa...should all these be the same version #?
[09:49] <higiraven> my mother does not even know how to use windows. Actually im teaching her to use ubuntu, she likes it
[09:49] <alimurat> no they don't, they have "the guy" to call and install drivers, if they can't do by the automated cds
[09:50] <nutterpc> higiraven: goos stuff man
[09:50] <nutterpc> good*
[09:50] <dyrne> anyone able to view .tif files in gimp? if you '!anyone' me ill get nutterpc to beat you with a hammer :)
[09:50] <slakkr_> is WINE a terminal based program too?
[09:50] <jahid> my internet connection sometime works and sometime not, its surprising
[09:50] <alimurat> mothers like their children so they can love even they don't easily understand
[09:50] <higiraven> my mother, my father and my older sister, they all use linux
[09:50] <alimurat> they must be genious higiraven..:)
[09:50] <alimurat> but i am not
[09:50] <nutterpc> dyrne: have you tried googling to see if there's a plugin for it/
[09:50] <alimurat> and i know there are people like me, even worse then me...
[09:51] <higiraven> truest me they are not. my mother didn't know how to turn on a computer 3 months ago
[09:51] <higiraven> trust*
[09:51] <coach> hi@all
[09:51] <slakkr_> is it possible to run a windows program from ur linux directory with WINE>
[09:51] <coach> is there a way to rename several files in a directory at one time?
[09:52] <coach> (i've got an rar-split-archive with a bad filename)
[09:52] <marx2k> yes, slakkr_
[09:52] <higiraven> slakkr_ well it depends on what program it is... if it can be run with wine or not :)
[09:52] <Matic`Makovec> Even if I have the AGP video card, the Video card's bus identifier can be something like "PCI:1:0:0" ?
[09:52] <alimurat> in my opinion, as a fresh one, linux, the name linux, the all linux'es have to have a standart way to do the preparatory stuff for using a computer to do the work (job, etc..) or play games, or chat
[09:52] <slakkr_> higiraven, im just trying to see if wine is working right
[09:52] <slakkr_> Winamp
[09:52] <yomm>  matik : yup
[09:52] <slakkr_> for instance
[09:52] <doseryder> matic: yes
[09:52] <marx2k> Matic`Makovec, most agp cards have that address
[09:52] <dyrne> nutterpc: i see thx
[09:52] <freezey> I am gettin a Segmentation fault (core dumped) when trying to run apt-get
[09:53] <freezey> how do i fix that?
[09:53] <slakkr_> and I run the command wine winamp
[09:53] <Matic`Makovec> Okay, thanks. I'll go with that htne
[09:53] <higiraven> alimurat well you have the choice to choose what you want to use, and that's a good thing
[09:53] <alimurat> this unix based things needs to have something like a highway, main road, ..
[09:53] <slakkr_> but it comes up searching for it in my windows system folder.
[09:53] <higiraven> remember it's free software
[09:53] <marx2k> !wine
[09:53] <slakkr_> how do i specify the location of a program to wine?
[09:53] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[09:53] <doseryder> matic: from my experience, i wouldn't worry too much about that if you just want it back and running.  I type that lspci command until i finished the wizard
[09:53] <alimurat> higiraven, that's not a good start to give an advice who tries to understand what's all around
[09:53] <slakkr_> ty
[09:53] <yomm> slakkr : try specifying the full patch to winaamp
[09:53] <higiraven> slakkr_ wine PATH
[09:53] <alimurat> sure we all know what to choose
[09:54] <yomm> *path
[09:54] <alimurat> and after choosing we want to see that the choice is not a bad choice, or at least it could be improved...
[09:54] <alimurat> is that something wrong?
[09:54] <higiraven> alimurat: at least I believe freedom is a _good_ thing
[09:54] <alimurat> off course, so I'm here like you
[09:54] <Cooner750> How do I install Adobe's Flash Player plugin? I've downloaded it and copied it to /usr/lib/firefox/plugins, but it still does not work. Does Flash Player work on the x86_64 edition of Ubuntu?
[09:55] <slakkr_> oh :D
[09:55] <slakkr_> I got it
[09:55] <parixa> hey guys.. is there a different channel for feisty?
[09:55] <slakkr_> cooner
[09:55] <kbrosnan> Cooner750: no
[09:55] <freezey> I am gettin a Segmentation fault (core dumped) when trying to run apt-get
[09:55] <doseryder> matic: i meant to say i didn't even try that suggested command until the wizard finish and when it did, X was up and running again already
[09:55] <ardchoille> parixa: #ubuntu+1
[09:55] <Cooner750> I knew I should have installed the x86 version. <_<
[09:55] <slakkr_> wow I got everything I needed running on Ubuntu in under 20 minutes
[09:55] <slakkr_> last time
[09:55] <slakkr_> it took me like 3 days
[09:55] <slakkr_> :D
[09:55] <alimurat> I'm someone like we all who does not want to see that f..king stupid green "start" thing staying always at the left bottom
[09:55] <higiraven> well now I suppose you are using ubuntu, you have chosen well
[09:55] <mindstate> when i glxinfo |grep  vendor .. i get an output of alot of different version #'s for client, server, glx, opengl, and mesa...should all these be the same version #?
[09:55] <kbrosnan> Cooner750: there is a wrapper that should allow it to work
[09:55] <pavs_> yoohoo bitchx is kool ;)
[09:56] <higiraven> hehe
[09:56] <Cooner750> kbrosnan: How can I get it/use it?
[09:56] <alimurat> this is a very nice and cool o.s., everything is free and you are free to change everything
[09:56] <slakkr_> pavs, I just installed it too
[09:56] <slakkr_> :D
[09:56] <pavs_> awesome
[09:56] <higiraven> :)
[09:56] <yomm> slakkr : that's ubuntu for ya :)
[09:56] <slakkr_> Pretty nice
[09:56] <slakkr_> I formatted my Windows
[09:56] <kbrosnan> Cooner750: http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/linux-amd64.html#intro-32bit
[09:56] <marx2k> cedega isnt free ;)
[09:56] <slakkr_> i guess im gonna go with Ubuntu from now :)
[09:56] <pavs_> brb
[09:57] <freezey> I am gettin a Segmentation fault (core dumped) when trying to run apt-get
[09:57] <doseryder> Is Wine a windows api wrapper (sorta ??) where it intercepts api calls invoked by the win32 program?
[09:57] <ardchoille> slakkr_: I've used 17 different distros and Ubuntu has been the most rock-solid and problem-free for me.
[09:57] <alimurat> that's all okay, I just want to say that if we'd have a bigger and known way (road, highway,...) that we could find and use easily, that'd be cooler
[09:57] <marx2k> doseryder, something like that
[09:57] <doseryder> I don't need the most elaborate answer, just want to know if i'm on the right idea :>
[09:58] <slakkr_> brb phone
[09:58] <ryoohki> how do i manually download the fsck.ntfs package? i need to load it on a server that's not connected right now( it's on a work table)
[09:58] <alimurat> :)
[09:58] <ompaul> 4th call:    I have a custom program that works from within xterm - I did not write it  so can't control what it does, however, it needs F12 which in dapper windowmaker (again I have no choice about the WM) - F1 calls a menu but it should be a command within the terminal, any ideas where to look for a solution?
[09:58] <ompaul> help ^^
[09:58] <yomm> can anyone recommend a nice live anti-virus cd ?
[09:58] <alimurat> anyway, my download for installing itself to make another installer work is done... see you around...:)
[09:58] <AlexC_> Morning,
[09:58] <marx2k> ompaul, are you looking for keymapping help?
[09:58] <gradin> yikes 1037 nicks online
[09:59] <doseryder> marx2k: ty
[09:59] <AlexC_> yomm: what exactly for, may I ask?
[09:59] <ardchoille> ompaul: I seem to remember a way of mapping keys.. possibly a file in ~/gnustep
[09:59] <ompaul> marx2k, not really it is make the application  get the key stroke before the wm
[09:59] <gradin> how can i switch tty sessions? for instace i left an app running outputing to tty1 is there a way to resume tty1 from a ssh session?
[09:59] <ardchoille> ompaul: Doesn't wmaker allow the user to re-map any key?
[09:59] <AlexC_> gradin: ctrl+alt+f1->6
[10:00] <parixa> I am having issues with the swap. Currently I can go to gParted and select swapon on my swap partition. But this is lost when I reboot. Anyone can PLEASE help with that?
[10:00] <marx2k> gradin- alt+ctrl+f1-f6
[10:00] <ompaul> ardchoille,  I can do xmodmap to move keys around but the application should catch the key not the wm - same key
[10:00] <yomm> AlexC : for scanning ntfs partitions , ofcourse :)
[10:00] <ardchoille> ompaul: True
[10:00] <ompaul> marx2k, ^^
[10:01] <gradin> marx2k: not working through a putty session...
[10:01] <staind> do i have to install a windows program again with Wine or can i run it (in ubu) from my windows directory
[10:01] <yomm> AlexC : I feel running a live environment is the best way to clean out a windows machine
[10:01] <ompaul> ardchoille, if you get any ideas give me a yell I am going to wander around freenode for a bit
[10:01] <marx2k> yomm: yep
[10:02] <ardchoille> ompaul: I looked at the wmaker docs and didn't see anything. I'll yell if I remember anything.
[10:02] <staind> do i have to install a windows program again with Wine or can i run it (in ubu) from my windows directory
[10:03] <posingaspopular> staind: what app?
[10:03] <lesshaste> what 's the difference between "sleep" and "hibernate"
[10:03] <staind> mainly Reason, Ableton Live, Cubase, Cakewalk Sonar
[10:03] <IgorSobreira> how can i mount my usbdisk??
[10:03] <marx2k> !sleep
[10:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sleep - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:03] <marx2k> !hibernate
[10:03] <ubotu> hibernate: smartly puts your computer to sleep (suspend to RAM or disk). In component universe, is extra. Version 1.91-2 (edgy), package size 72 kB, installed size 364 kB
[10:03] <posingaspopular> marx2k: the bot never sleeps...
[10:04] <marx2k> heh
[10:04] <marx2k> !opme
[10:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about opme - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:04] <posingaspopular> staind: i have no idea what those are, sorry
[10:04] <ardchoille> ompaul: What would happen if you found the config that holds the key combos and just commented that one out? Would it default back to the app instead of the wm?
[10:04] <lesshaste> sorry.. i meant suspend and hibernate
[10:04] <cyris> Hey everyone, from a shell, how can I install updates with apt-get ?
[10:04] <staind> they are just music recording programs
[10:04] <ompaul> ardchoille, I'll give it a shot in a few minutes - for testing I will have to launch wmaker
[10:04] <conn> hi, can someone with intel integrated graphics do me a favour? Check the fps from glxgears in two ways (compare the difference): a) glxgears -printfps, and b) INTEL_BATCH=1 glxgears -printfps
[10:04] <ardchoille> cyris: sudo apt-get upgrade
[10:04] <staind> lets just use the example of a regular windows app that i want to run with linux
[10:05] <zeus> how to configure firewall ?
[10:05] <staind> do i install it with Wine
[10:05] <Cooner750> I'm thinking it would just be easier to install the x86 version of Ubuntu
[10:05] <staind> or do i run the installed version with wine
[10:05] <ardchoille> !firewall | zeus
[10:05] <ubotu> zeus: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[10:05] <posingaspopular> staind: i duno about wine
[10:05] <posingaspopular> !wine
[10:05] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[10:05] <ompaul> staind, yes ask in #wine-hq for detailed info after you do sudo apt-get install wine etc
[10:05] <cyris> thanks
[10:06] <doseryder> marx2k: I only just installed wine like a month ago so i never tried wine yet but, Wine sounds like a badass program.  Cuz it has to know every win32 lib calls and it would have to find a equivalent function call in linux (I think i need some correction at this point)
[10:06] <knovak> Hey all, i've been trying to get MIDI to work on my Ubuntu installation, but to no avail. Lately I've been trying sfxload to load a soundfont, but I get "No AWE synth device is found
[10:06] <knovak> ". Anyone have any tips for this?
[10:06] <lesshaste> what is the difference between suspend and hibernate?
[10:06] <staind> sorry for sounding so ametuer
[10:06] <erUSUL> !midi > knovak
[10:06] <staind> but wat is the command to get Wine
[10:06] <doseryder> marx2k: i meant to say, i only just installed ubuntu a month ago
[10:06] <fissy> hello there, is anyone having trouble with intel wireless and feisty?
[10:06] <erUSUL> staind: wine
[10:06] <knovak> thanks
[10:06] <staind> my friend wrote it down and i cant read it
[10:07] <erUSUL> fissy: feisty is discussed in #ubuntu+1
[10:07] <marx2k> get the latest winetools
[10:07] <marx2k> !winetools
[10:07] <avayl> hey i am doing a dual boot. grub loads fine but when I try to load ubuntu it spits out "waiting for root file system... ..." and stalls
[10:07] <bruenig> staind, wine is a compatibility layer. It mirrors the windows api therefore setting up a sort of fake windows environment allowing the programs to run. (sudo apt-get install wine)
[10:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about winetools - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:07] <fissy> erUSUL: thanks, and sorry
[10:07] <avayl> anyone know what the issue is?
[10:07] <Cooner750> Will the x86 edition of Ubuntu work on the AMD Sempron (64 Bit) ?
[10:07] <erUSUL> fissy: no problem
[10:07] <erUSUL> Cooner750: yes
[10:07] <marx2k> Cooner750, yes
[10:08] <avayl> any ideas?
[10:08] <marx2k> avayl: hit 'e' during the bootmenu and play with your hd# number
[10:09] <marx2k> for ubuntu
[10:09] <bruenig> # number
[10:09] <avayl> marx2k: i did. doesn't work
[10:11] <radar1976> Ok I'm pulling my hair out!
[10:11] <bruenig> !offtopic | radar1976
[10:11] <ubotu> radar1976: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[10:12] <avayl> anyone else have any ideas? to reiterate: i am doing a dual boot. grub loads fine but when I try to load ubuntu it spits out "waiting for root file system... ..." and stalls
[10:12] <gradin> how can i switch to tty1 from a putty ssh session?
[10:12] <radar1976> uhh i'm not offtopic
[10:12] <AlexC_> ctrl+alt+f1
[10:12] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> Hi all! Ive installed VNC and the mozilla plug in, but still it seems like firefox wont use vnc to show movies. It just says (no video) in a black frame, but if i download the same video i can open it with vnc! what am i missing!?!?
[10:12] <bruenig> AlexC_, keyword ssh session
[10:12] <AlexC_> bruenig: yeah, not off topic really - he's probably pulling his hair out cos of aproblem :P
[10:12] <gradin> AlexC_: from a ssh session...
[10:13] <marx2k> i dont know if you can, gradin
[10:13] <marx2k> i cld be wrong
[10:13] <bruenig> radar1976, your hair being pulled out is not a support issue, however, I recommend not contracting your hand around the folicles and then moving them away from the scalp
[10:13] <AlexC_> gradin: not sure if that is possible? you could just do another ssh session
[10:13] <gradin> AlexC_: but i need to access output of program running on tty1
[10:13] <radar1976> well then..
[10:13] <bruenig> s/folicle/follicle/
[10:13] <AlexC_> large words ... large words! *runs*
[10:14] <radar1976> I had my mac-mini running all my vhosts but now I'm moving servers.  I have moved the config from one computer to another and changed the IP directives for the vhosts...  no change  I only get the root server on all vhosts...
[10:14] <AlexC_> gradin: hum,
[10:14] <crdlb> UbuntuN00B_HBG,  I've had more success with mplayerplug-in
[10:14] <alimurat> could anyone help me to use the packages in the url "http://packages.ubuntu.com/edgy/"?
[10:15] <alimurat> the packages inside like 3ddesktop...
[10:15] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> crdlb: just uninstall all VLC-stuff and install mplayer?
[10:15] <bruenig> alimurat, you install 3ddesktop
[10:15] <MrDetermination> From Ubuntu I can Remote Desktop to my file server and see the box on the network in SMB but can not access the shares
[10:15] <AlexC_> alimurat: ? what do you mean? Just open up Synaptic and install what ever package
[10:15] <bruenig> UbuntuN00B_HBG, yeah vlc is awful for plugin (mozilla-mplayer)
[10:15] <alimurat> synaptic?
[10:15] <alimurat> where is it?
[10:15] <bruenig> alimurat, sudo apt-get install 3ddesktop
[10:16] <AlexC_> alimurat: Systen->Admin->Synaptic
[10:16] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> bruenig / crdlb: allright! ill give it a try! thanks!
[10:16] <alimurat> ok.. thanks a lot..:)
[10:16] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> anyone here tried out feisty? any good?
[10:16] <AlexC_> alimurat: I highly suggest you read this: https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/index.html
[10:16] <AlexC_> UbuntuN00B_HBG: #ubuntu+1 please
[10:16] <marx2k> im running kubuntu feisty right now
[10:16] <gradin> MrDetermination: mount -t smbfs -o username="username,password="password" //<servername>/<sharename> /<mnt dir>/<submount dir>
[10:17] <gradin> MrDetermination: or something along those paths, also insure that you have the directorys shared shared out correctly
[10:17] <MrDetermination> i need to command line it before Smb4k will work?
[10:17] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> AlexC_: ok, sorry!
[10:17] <bluesign> is ubuntu minimal net install possible?
[10:17] <teeL> Can someone help me with my dhcpd.conf file? I get No subnet declaration for eth1 (192.168.62.55). dhcpd.conf = http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7834/
[10:17] <bruenig> !minimal | bluesign yeah
[10:17] <ubotu> bluesign yeah: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[10:18] <bluesign> bruenig: thanks a lot
[10:18] <bruenig> !thanks | bluesign
[10:18] <ubotu> bluesign: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[10:18] <steel_lady> I have card reader inside the laptop and in windows I was able to format 4GB SD card to FAT32. how can I do it in ubuntu?
[10:18] <bluesign> :)
[10:18] <lesshaste> is glxgears the app that is supposed to benchmark your 3d driver?
[10:18] <niyi> do the build-essential package allow for the building of all source packages?
[10:19] <niyi> or just .deb files?
[10:19] <bluesign> i have booted from live CD, can I download ISO and burn? (i have only one drive)
[10:19] <marx2k> lessHASTE: no
[10:19] <crdlb> lesshaste, yes but it's not particularly accurate
[10:19] <lesshaste> I was sure it was meant to output some figures
[10:19] <bruenig> niyi, it allows you to compile
[10:19] <lesshaste> crdlb, in my case it isn't outputting anything
[10:19] <niyi> well.... mine refuses to compile
[10:19] <lesshaste> crdlb, just turning the gears :)
[10:19] <AlexC_> niyi: build-essential provides some tools to build from Source. you never build from a .deb as that';s a binary all-ready-to-go file
[10:19] <alimurat> where will i find the application after installing it by synaptic??
[10:19] <bruenig> niyi, do you have all the dependencies for it
[10:19] <crdlb> lesshaste, you have to pass some crazy switch to it iirc
[10:19] <niyi> where are the dependancies listed?
[10:20] <lesshaste> crdlb, ah... any ideas?
[10:20] <alimurat> synaptic said that it's succesful (3ddesktop)
[10:20] <bruenig> alimurat, generally it is in the menu assuming it is graphical, it will likely be installed in /usr/bin though either way
[10:20] <lesshaste> marx2k, no?
[10:20] <marx2k> lesshaste: any forum will tell you not to use glxgears to benchmark your vidcard
[10:20] <AlexC_> alimurat: do you want a 3d desktop where you can spin around a cube and have wobbly windows etc?
[10:20] <bruenig> niyi, what are you trying to install, generally it has a README or INSTALL file or tells you somewhere what it needs, link to the package
[10:20] <lesshaste> marx2k, sure.. what I meant was that it isn't outputting anything...
[10:20] <lesshaste> marx2k, just turning the gears
[10:20] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> bruenig / crdlb: mplayer works like a charm! thanks! :)
[10:21] <Szaman> witam
[10:21] <marx2k> oh...theres a switch from commandline to output the fps
[10:21] <bluesign> any chance to burn ISO while booted from liveCD, or boot ISO somehow ?
[10:21] <marx2k> 'man glxgears'
[10:21] <alimurat> yes AlexC
[10:21] <Szaman> jestem nowy w wiecie linuxa, czy tutaj jes ttylko jeden kana?
[10:21] <bruenig> bluesign, you would need two drives
[10:21] <crdlb> lesshaste, it is not a good benchmark which is why it is disabled by default
[10:21] <lesshaste> marx2k, no man page...
[10:21] <marx2k> !fps
[10:21] <AlexC_> alimurat: then you'll want Beryl. http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install_Beryl_on_Ubuntu
[10:21] <ubotu> To display the FPS in glxgears, run 'glxgears -printfps' in a terminal.
[10:21] <knovak> Alright, I read that MIDI guide, followed it, but Rosegarden will still not make any noise
[10:22] <knovak> it says JackD is not started
[10:22] <knovak> when I try to start JackD, I get this message; the playback device "hw:0" is already in use. Please stop the application using it and run JACK again
[10:22] <crdlb> that bot knows everything
[10:22] <bruenig> !botsnack
[10:22] <bluesign> bruenig: 2 cd/dvd drives?
[10:22] <ubotu> Yum!
[10:22] <alimurat> oh, too much stuff....
[10:22] <bruenig> bluesign, yeah one running the live cd and the other for burning
[10:23] <falcon3> ubuntu doesnt seem to support my chipset, is there anything i can do?
[10:23] <marx2k> where will you hold yoour ISO?
[10:23] <Aahz> Hi people. I was wondering if anyone could help with a driver problem. It concerns a Siemens 108 stick - Ubuntu wont identify it.
[10:23] <lesshaste> marx2k, thx... 600 fps
[10:23] <lesshaste> and  libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x5b
[10:23] <marx2k> lesshaste, yeah youll always get stuff like that
[10:23] <nero_> Does anyone know if a lowly Geforce 440MX is supported with all the fancy beryl, xgl etc.. stuff?
[10:24] <buches> Question: how do I change the brightness of my laptop monitor?  fn+f9 (dim) and fn+f10 (brighter) don't work, but fn+other keys works.
[10:24] <lesshaste> marx2k, why is that?
[10:24] <Mic__hael> how can I see the changelogs with apt-get? (just like the 'changes' in the update-manager)
[10:24] <bruenig> nero_, #ubuntu-effects
[10:24] <rlevitin> can i get some help with basic bootloader config?
[10:24] <nero_> thanks bruenig . :)
[10:24] <grindar> does anyone have kismet up and running under edgy?
[10:24] <bruenig> !justask | rlevitin
[10:24] <marx2k> lesshaste, ask ATI/Nvidia :)
[10:24] <ubotu> rlevitin: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:24] <parkerw207> hiya does anyone know how to get the ubuntu server addition?
[10:24] <lesshaste> marx2k, it's an intel card :)
[10:24] <rlevitin> lol
[10:24] <parkerw207> when i click download it seem to go to the normal download page
[10:24] <marx2k> ok, ask Intel :D
[10:24] <bruenig> parkerw207, edition or addition
[10:25] <parkerw207> edition lol
[10:25] <parkerw207> bad moi

[10:25] <rlevitin> I just switched from Fedora to Ubuntu, and my bootloader is really ugly... /boot/grub/grub.conf doesn't exist... whats the config file for my bootloader?
[10:25] <Aahz> Does anyone know where can I get the drivers for a Siemens 108 wifi stick for Ubuntu?
[10:25] <bruenig> parkerw207, http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/ubuntu-releases/edgy/ubuntu-6.10-server-i386.iso
[10:25] <marx2k> rlevitin,  menu.lst
[10:26] <marx2k> (/boot/grub/menu.lst)
[10:26] <rlevitin> oh
[10:26] <rlevitin> kk
[10:26] <parkerw207> what do i run that link in ?
[10:26] <ompaul> ardchoille,  in wprefs.app you can select the "actions" section and remove the shortcut for "Open applications menu"  (its default bind to F12)
[10:26] <rlevitin> markx2k: thats the confg file?
[10:26] <bruenig> parkerw207, you can wget it or you can open it in a browser
[10:26] <ompaul> marx2k, ^^
[10:26] <parkerw207> oo i did thakns , is it easy to use and set up?
[10:26] <xamox> If I want to be able to stream stuff off my SMB mount from my Ubuntu server running samba to my Ubuntu Desktop using VLC do I need to install smbfs and mount it as a directory to be able to do this?
[10:26] <crdlb> Aahz, usb wifi is very poorly supported
[10:26] <rlevitin> gotcha... thanks!
[10:27] <marx2k> xamoxyes
[10:27] <marx2k> !smbfs
[10:27] <flake> I installed 6.10 along with envy to set up my nvidia - opengl works ok but in synaptic package manager it's not showing alot of 3d games, not even armagetron - is there a repo I need?
[10:27] <ubotu> smbfs: mount and umount commands for the smbfs (for kernels >= than 2.2.x). In component main, is optional. Version 3.0.22-1ubuntu4.1 (edgy), package size 389 kB, installed size 920 kB
[10:27] <parkerw207> basicaly the idea it to create my own site and run it on my own server , but i aint done this before soo ineed somethign with lots of support and easy to install
[10:27] <crdlb> xamox, if you use totem, then you can just connect to server in nautilus
[10:27] <justdave> I remember reading something recently about Ubuntu having a deal with Linspire to provide for-purchase programs that would legally support patented stuff in Ubuntu.  Anything come of that yet?

[10:32] <crdlb> yezariael, you can use the alternate cd
[10:32] <MitchM> yezariael, the "alternate" installation cd.
[10:32] <ardchoille> yezariael: alternate cd will do that
[10:32] <kaluna> clearzen: sudo or root "skill -u (username)"
[10:32] <MitchM> har har :)
[10:32] <yezariael> k... thx... why didn't they implement that feature...? sux kinda
[10:33] <MitchM> space concerns most likely... good question.

[10:34] <Scant> earlier i was given advice on how to partion my drive to share windows and linux
[10:35] <javb> Hi guys.. im planning give some classes using computers.. i dont have a projector so i wonder, i there any application in UIbuntu i can use to make all monitors show my computer? Like remote or something?

[10:35] <GaryColeman> Hey, the bot doesn't know anything about xscreensave. When I was using it in slackware it had all these buttons and knobs to play with. But where are they in Ubuntu's version? How to I re-enable the fun options?
[10:35] <Scant> please sum1 tell me what i must allocate to where if i want to partion some space to Linux and if i want to use the Fat32 to share files between linux and windows
[10:36] <IndyGunFreak> I changed the default Icon for a USB drive I have, and I'd like to change it back to the default(its like the normal drive icon in computer :///), does anyone know where its located and the name of it?
[10:36] <marx2k> allocate some fat32 space
[10:36] <doseryder> marx2k: i have a noob question bout MBR, is MBR something thats on every partition or one MBR per physical hard disk?
[10:36] <Scant> how much fat32 sapce
[10:36] <Scant> and wat does the fat32 space do
[10:36] <marx2k> one mbr per disk
[10:37] <crdlb> Scant, you can just shrink the windows partition and install ubuntu to the free space
[10:37] <marx2k> fat32 is used a sa 'common space' between linux and windows since both can read/write fat32
[10:37] <crdlb> Scant, there are drivers to read ext3 from windows
[10:37] <crdlb> so you don't need a fat32 partition
[10:37] <crdlb> necessarily
[10:37] <zeus> marx2k it doesn't say
[10:38] <marx2k> zeus: then it's not a standard service
[10:38] <marx2k> 6880 is irc i think
[10:38] <grindar> IdleOne: apparently in edgy the sources box is different?
[10:38] <xamox> Is there something special i have to do to get ACPI to work? When I try to hibernate it gives me an error.
[10:38] <zeus> mark2k I didn't install anything, it's a fresh installation, how to find out ?
[10:38] <radar1976> my apache config is at http://pastebin.ca/374887

[10:42] <doseryder> marx2k:  Okie, let me ask my real question (The real question which leads me in here).  Initially I had XP and ubuntu installed (worked like a dream until i installed vista) After vista installation, GRUB boot loader doesn't start but instead it just boot directly into XP but oddly, if i press f12 to select primary sata drive it then recognizes GRUB boot loader.  Currently all three partitions are on my sata d
[10:42] <doseryder> rive
[10:42] <Scant> and the swap must be equal to my ram???
[10:42] <MrPwnage> beryl working with ubuntu now

[10:43] <morphir> seen zammi
[10:43] <slakkr_> ubuntu 6.06?
[10:43] <clitsey> when i switch to it i get a cube, but all the sides are white except the top and bottom
[10:43] <slakkr_> or 6.10?
[10:43] <MrPwnage> 6.10
[10:43] <slakkr_> bleh
[10:43] <tm4-> clitsey - what kind of video card do you have?
[10:43] <d0dge-> crdlb: can't apt-get it
[10:43] <MrPwnage> why 6.06? might be LTS but is still outdated imo
[10:43] <clitsey> ati mobility 9700
[10:43] <sgrove> and secondly, I have a pretty big problem with my sound card - I think. When I turn the volume all the way down, so that it should be silent (even the muted speaker icon comes up), there is still sound coming out. If I put my headphones in, the sound comes out full-blast  in the headphones, and out of the speakers as well. If I mute the speakers, and put the headphones in, the sound comes out at full blast.
[10:43] <crdlb> Scant, if you want to hibernate, yes
[10:43] <tm4-> clitsey - are you using xgl or aiglx?
[10:43] <doseryder> marx2k: someone in here (now away) told me to check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[10:43] <clitsey> tm4-: aiglx from what i can tell
[10:43] <sgrove> is it a software problem, or a hardware problem? It seems pretty crazy to me
[10:43] <MrPwnage> i'm just using it directly on top of the nvidia drivers :P
[10:43] <grindar> IdleOne: odd, they were already enabled...
[10:43] <MrPwnage> not even using AIGLX
[10:43] <sgrove> GaryColeman, thanks for that, I'll check it out

[10:44] <Scant> is fat32 like a section where they both read from?
[10:44] <happytron> hi, is it possible to attach the stdin/stderr of a running process to the current shell, as if it had been executed from the current shell
[10:44] <tm4-> clitsey are you using the fglrx drivers or those packaged with ubuntu?
[10:44] <GaryColeman> Should just be able to apt-get audacity Willis
[10:44] <doseryder> marx2k: in my case (if you read the first paragraph), it saids "Don't forget that this method, as described, puts GRUB back on the MBR (master boot record) of the hard drive instead of in the root parititon. This is fine for most people, but not if you already have an alternative boot manager."  Should i put grub back mbr or on the root partition?
[10:44] <timfrost> d0dge, try mailx or mutt.  Pine isn't available because of its licenses

[10:44] <mohd> idle one my question is how to setup Bluetooth modem in ubuntu 6.10
[10:44] <grindar> no, edgy live cd. This is off of a fresh format

[10:44] <mohd> idleone my question is how to setup Bluetooth modem in ubuntu 6.10
[10:44] <clitsey> which i presume are fglrx
[10:44] <d0dge-> timfrost: Okay thanks
[10:44] <IdleOne> grindar, that is strange
[10:45] <tm4-> clitsey - i'm not fan of envy and i hate the proprietary ati drivers with a passion. i've gotten beryl to work flawlessly with my radeon 9800 using aiglx
[10:45] <tm4-> and using the driver that ships with ubuntu
[10:45] <tm4-> i can help you with that and i highly suggest it
[10:45] <sgrove> where would I look to find out my audio problem? Googling it is pretty difficult, a lot of noisy results

[10:45] <clitsey> tm4-: is there anyway you can help me out?
[10:45] <IdleOne> !bluetooth > mohd
[10:45] <doseryder> marx2k: sorry about making you read so much
[10:45] <clitsey> tm4-: because ive been trying for a while just to get the cube working properly
[10:45] <clitsey> tm4-: im open to any suggestions
[10:45] <mohd> idleone yes :)
[10:46] <tm4-> clitsey i don't mind helping you out, but i suggest not using the fglrx drivers - are you okay going open source?
[10:46] <knovak> Alright, Ubuntu-studio isnt helping me out much, I'll just ask again

[10:47] <IdleOne> posingasopular, put the live cd in reboot and install
[10:47] <happytron> hi, is it possible to attach the stdin/stdout/stderr of a running process to the current shell, as if it had been executed from the current shell?
[10:47] <clitsey> tm4-: i cant tell you the number of times ive reinstalled ubuntu because ive fed it up
[10:47] <crdlb> clitsey, the open source drivers are slower but much more stable
[10:47] <posingasopular> IdleOne: im on the live cd, i have to reinstall but iirc, my grub is tricky
[10:47] <tm4-> clitsey you can get 2d acceleration and good 3d acceleration with them and beryl will work fine with aiglx. the open source drivers are leaps and bounds better than the crap ati gives to us
[10:48] <clitsey> tm4-: ok i gotta run for like 20 min to talk with my prof. ill be right back
[10:48] <sgrove> bit of help?
[10:48] <tm4-> okay, i may or may not be here - im in class myself

[10:48] <crdlb> JamesBeen, without?
[10:48] <JamesBeen> anyone know a RSS reader for linux *with* keyboard navigation support?

[10:49] <niyi> anyone explain why im getting that
[10:49] <posingasopular> IdleOne: last time i installed ubuntu it went crazy on the parition page. my CURRENT partition setup wont let me log into ubuntu.
[10:49] <synic> niyi: because you should be using your package manager instead of compiling from source
[10:49] <niyi> despite having reinstalled build-essential like 10000 times
[10:49] <posingasopular> literally the username/pass is right, i set up multiple accounts
[10:49] <doseryder> tm4- at this link that you sent me earlier https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows it saids that "Don't forget that this method, as described, puts GRUB back on the MBR (master boot record) of the hard drive instead of in the root parititon. This is fine for most people, but not if you already have an alternative boot manager."
[10:49] <abisen> can i do something with mplayer and some hardware to show my video's on a regular TV and not my monitor
[10:49] <posingasopular> and it wont go
[10:50] <doseryder> in my case, do i want it grub back on the mbr or the root partittion?
[10:50] <posingasopular> i need to torpedo the old partition and replace it
[10:50] <crdlb> niyi, you still need the devel package for each of those
[10:50] <niyi> but it only came with source
[10:50] <synic> niyi: those packages have nothing to do with build-essential

[10:50] <crdlb> niyi, apt-get build-dep <some gtk app>
[10:51] <crdlb> will pull in everything
[10:51] <tm4-> doseryder: i've always kept mine on the mbr and have had no trouble booting other os's. then again, if something goes wrong, are you going to be okay with possibly having to reinstall? :)

[10:53] <doseryder> tm4- Are you saying if something goes wrong in the event that I install GRUB on MBR or root partition that may put me in jeopardy?
[10:54] <JamesBeen> liferea has two problems, the keyboard navigation support, and every feed that has a digg it button opens in a new browser page
[10:54] <topato> hello .. is there any reason to install ubuntu server instead of regular ubuntu besides conserving disk space from not installing xorg? :)
[10:54] <tm4-> doseryder im just saying that if something goes wrong, worst case scenario is you'll have to reinstall your os'
[10:54] <tm4-> os's*
[10:54] <aathomas> zOap: That's very cool. Congratulations

[10:54] <Moniker42> how do i use my tv as a secondary monitor with a gforce?
[10:54] <clearze1> topato: It takes more system resources to run X too. and you don't need a graphical environment for administration

[10:55] <aathomas> zOap: I haven't seen that one. The only nominated short I've seen was the little match girl.
[10:55] <topato> clearze1: could you not jsut kill the x-server?
[10:55] <aathomas> zOap: I can't believe that Happy Feet beat Cars!

[10:56] <Gunbritt> is the an package for xchat?
[10:56] <dyrne> topato: you avoid other packages as well like openoffice etc
[10:56] <MrPwnage> brilliant
[10:56] <zOap> aathomas, hehe, yeah. Well, we're just glad that we won. We worked really hard for it. it's the first norwegian movie to win in over 50 years..
[10:56] <dyrne> topato: if you apt-get the individual packages
[10:56] <AlexC_> MrPwnage: the power of open-source =)
[10:56] <topato> I understand .. I just feel a little bit more comfortable installing the desktop version
[10:56] <gravemind> Hi, I want to make my computer boot up faster, so I'm wondering how can I disable some kernel modules that I don't need, such as ethernet?
[10:56] <MrPwnage> this is still not fast enough for 100% usage
[10:56] <MrPwnage> (i.e. i might want to game sometimes)
[10:56] <topato> what are the benefits of running ubuntu server over say, openbsd or freebsd or .. regular debian even?
[10:56] <hack-`-> !amule
[10:56] <gordonjcp> gravemind: are you sure you don't need ethernet?
[10:56] <ubotu> amule: client for the eD2k and Kad networks, like eMule. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.1.3-1 (edgy), package size 1239 kB, installed size 3368 kB
[10:56] <MrPwnage> but, with a better video card and a Pentium D
[10:56] <topato> that might not have been an appropriate question
[10:57] <MrPwnage> :)
[10:57] <Micky> hi
[10:57] <MrPwnage> it's probably gonna haul ass
[10:57] <topato> but I thought the gui was what distinguished ubuntu from the herd
[10:57] <MrPwnage> well, ubuntu server has excellent console config tools
[10:57] <MrPwnage> hmm, bbb connection
[10:57] <gravemind> gordonjcp: not with my current setup. I use wireless right now, but if I ever needed ethernet again I could just reenable the modules right?
[10:57] <MrPwnage> so jealous of those
[10:57] <clearze1> topato: I personally perfer something with a slower update cycle for a server
[10:57] <AlexC_> topato: Ubuntu Server doesn't install by X by default ... so no GUI
[10:57] <MrPwnage> nothing like that in this country.
[10:57] <skywalker> hello
[10:57] <Micky> on ubuntu how do i install with the terminal
[10:57] <topato> clearze1: i can understand that
[10:57] <MrPwnage> i have 10Mbps, and that's considered insanely fast in the US
[10:57] <clearze1> topato: Make sure it is stable before you install it
[10:57] <gravemind> Micky:: it depends
[10:57] <AlexC_> Micky: sudo apt-get install PROGRAM
[10:57] <dyrne> topato: you can always do desktop install then sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove   that way x wont start automatically youll have to sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start   to bring it up
[10:57] <DaSkreech> Seveas: ping
[10:58] <gordonjcp> gravemind: hm, do you mean specifically the ethernet card drivers?
[10:58] <decoy5657> Can anyone help me with accessing a windows share on my domain controller? i don't want ot join my ubuntu system to the domain, just access the share. I know how to make this work it i were accessing a standalone machine, but i think the domain is messingme up.
[10:58] <Micky> kkz thanx alexc
[10:58] <JamesBeen> anyone know how to fix time sync problems? (time doesn't sync with servers automatically)
[10:58] <gordonjcp> gravemind: 'cos disabling those isn't really going to speed things up
[10:58] <Scant> If i allocate less space to my ntfs that windows uses, will there be any problems???????????????
[10:58] <AlexC_> bye all, gotta go
[10:58] <Micky> well igtg
[10:58] <Micky> byebye
[10:58] <AlexC_> =)
[10:58] <AlexC_> cya
[10:58] <skywalker> when I update with the update manger it changes my networkcard to wired connection
[10:58] <gordonjcp> gravemind: what *might* help is making sure it's not waiting around forever for a DHCP server that it's not connected to any more
[10:59] <skywalker> and Iam on a wireless
[10:59] <clearze1> topato: the only reason I can think of to install it would be to forward x over ssh for configuration utilities and such. even then it's better just to leave x and all the packages with it off your server I think.
[10:59] <skywalker> so I cant get online with the updated kern
[10:59] <Scant> If i allocate less space to my ntfs that windows uses, will there be any problems??????????????
[10:59] <Gunbritt> is there an package for xchat??
[11:00] <ardchoille> Gunbritt: yes
[11:00] <IndyGunFreak> Gunbritt: in the repositories, yes

 Hello, I'm trying to get Rosegarden to play sounds (MIDI works on my machine, its just Rosegarden wont make any noise :( )
 Rosegarden is telling my the JackD server isnt active, but when I try to start it I get: the playback device "hw:0" is already in use. Please stop the application using it and run JACK again
 any ideas?
[11:00] <Scant> y isnt any1 answering me
[11:01] <yemu> hi, anyone here with sdhci module (card reader) experience?

[11:01] <ghatak> Hi guys, how do i burn a CD. i have inserted a disk in CD burner, when i do cdrecord -scanbus, it returns only my SCSI hard drive... Help
[11:01] <crdlb> Scant, what partitioner are you using?
[11:01] <yemu> i have problem with my card reader (in toshiba m60)
[11:01] <bruenig> ghatak, you know the /dev/hd#
[11:02] <dyrne> ghatak: you want a gui burner? sudo apt-get install k3b      you can also burn cds using your file manager
[11:02] <Malachi> How can I switch between a remote desktop and the local one through the Terminal Server Client?
[11:02] <bruenig> s/you/do you/

[11:03] <avalon_> Can someone explain to me how I can get my USB Headset working with the Xine engine?
[11:03] <ghatak> bruenig: does it have to be mounted ?
[11:03] <bruenig> ghatak, if you have a blank cd in there, it should already be mounted
[11:04] <Scant> 13gb (which i have free on my HDD) to ext3
[11:04] <Scant> 3.9gb to fat32
[11:04] <Scant> 37.82gb to NTFS (my HDD currently has more than that)
[11:04] <Scant> 498mb to swap
[11:04] <ghatak> bruenig: gnome-vfs is not runnin :)
[11:04] <Scant> and when i say that my HDD has more than that, i mean that more space than 37gb is occupied
[11:05] <bruenig> ghatak, well I have never mounted it, try it unmounted or mount it and try it
[11:05] <bruenig> that is the syntax though
[11:05] <bruenig> by never mounted it, I mean that it has always been automounted
[11:05] <ghatak> bruenig: thanks mate
[11:05] <Scant> so??
[11:06] <crdlb> Scant, what partitioner?
[11:06] <knovak> I'm still having troubles  getting Rosegarden to play back sounds, can ANYONE help, or have I hit the taboo of Ubuntu
[11:06] <Scant> o
[11:06] <knovak> because it seems that nobody is willing to even acknowledge it
[11:06] <Scant> wat u mean wat partitioner?

[11:10] <nexous> How do I go about installing GTK engines?
[11:10] <avalon_> Can someone explain to me how I can get my USB Headset working with the Xine engine?
[11:10] <Scant> i think ii am using gparted
[11:10] <bruenig> nexous, which ones, are you compiling something or what?
[11:11] <Scant> i clicked on 'partion drive manually'

[11:11] <crdlb> Scant, yes that is gparted
[11:11] <nexous> bruenig: I have GDM, and I'm guessing GTK, not 100% sure though.
[11:11] <nexous> Can I have mulitple engines installed?
[11:11] <Scant> so then do i have a problem?
[11:11] <radar1976> grrrr  I don't understand, what am I missing... I posted my config. and asked my question... what more are people looking for to help me
[11:11] <bruenig> well there is gtk2.0 and gtk1.2 and I thought you were compiling some of them require different versions
[11:11] <crdlb> Scant, 13GB is enough for ubuntu
[11:12] <nexous> How do I check my version? I think i have 2.0
[11:12] <bruenig> nexous, just sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0
[11:12] <bruenig> if it says installed, then you know
[11:12] <crdlb> Scant, you should be able to shrink the ntfs partition though
[11:12] <Scant> but will i have a problem if i allocate less space to NTFS than is occupied already
[11:13] <nexous> bruenig: 2.0 it is.
[11:13] <bruenig> right so what is the problem
[11:13] <MrPwnage> seems like a gparted liveCD
[11:13] <MrPwnage> or bootit! NG is also good
[11:13] <MrPwnage> best methods of resizing
[11:13] <MrPwnage> bootit! NG requires windows, but i assume you have that
[11:13] <topato> why is a 6 month release cycle preferable?
[11:13] <MrPwnage> it has a utility included to make an ISO or a floppy image
[11:13] <Scant> but will i have a problem if i allocate less space to NTFS than is occupied already
[11:13] <knovak> I'm still having troubles  getting Rosegarden to play back sounds, can ANYONE help?
[11:13] <nexous> bruenig: I just need to install the Rezlooks engine and/or Murrine engine.
[11:13] <crdlb> Scant, you should defrag windows before shrinking
[11:13] <bruenig> topato, it is arbitrary, would you like 6 and a half months?
[11:14] <MrPwnage> topato: it is a regular amount of time, and you can do a lot in that amount of time
[11:14] <nexous> bruenig: I wasn't sure if I can have multiple engines, and if so how to I add them.
[11:14] <MrPwnage> a year is too long :P
[11:14] <topato> bruenig: yes
[11:14] <Scant> is it called shrinking
[11:14] <bruenig> topato, well fork it
[11:14] <Scant> so it wont affect anything?
[11:14] <zeus> How can I allow azureus to open ports in the router using upnp
[11:14] <topato> bruenig: haha :)
[11:14] <sgrove> alright, here's an easier question for you guys then
[11:14] <crdlb> Scant, do you have free space on the ntfs partition?
[11:14] <marx2k> zeus, : set your router to upnp on and then azureus to use upnp
[11:15] <sgrove> I installed ubuntu to a small 4GB partition, and I have a 25GB ntfs partition (I believe), and like another 8GB free somewhere...how can I find and partition those 8GB?
[11:15] <topato> so .. the 6 month release cycle is merely to keep track of new releases as opposed to other distros that release more often?
[11:15] <Scant> no - 37GB
[11:15] <zeus> marx2k I did that, nothing happend.
[11:15] <Scant> thats all there is left
[11:15] <k_keller> Hi! I would like to install ubuntu but on an external hardrive. I already have opensuse on a partition on the normal harddrive with GRUB for booting. I'm wondering if GRUB will be updated after installing Ubuntu on external USB harddrive and if there will be any problems when I boot other OS than ubuntu but with USB drive not connected
[11:15] <marx2k> zeus: then your router is not allowing upnp :)
[11:15] <topato> instead you would just not install some versions of X and reinstall every 6 months or so?
[11:15] <bruenig> sgrove, find? where was the last place you put them before they went missing?
[11:15] <crdlb> Scant, so the 37 GB ntfs partition is completely filled?
[11:15] <zeus> marx2k it does, I did it with windows. in linux it doesn't work
[11:16] <Scant> 37gb was all that was left
[11:16] <marx2k> zeus: Thats somewhat odd..,. how do you know its not working, btw?
[11:16] <MrPwnage> i still do some things manually on ubuntu
[11:16] <sgrove> hmm, I simply formatted the drive...installed windows, installed ubuntu, and should have some hd space leftover...
[11:16] <MrPwnage> despite everything being so automatic
[11:16] <nexous> How do I install Rezlooks Engine and Pixmap Engine
[11:16] <sgrove> but I'm not sure how to access it
[11:16] <bruenig> I do a lot manually
[11:16] <zeus> marx2k I log in to the router and there are no ports open
[11:16] <MrPwnage> like, i have to install nvidia 9631 release, as 9746 doesn't support my card anymore
[11:16] <crdlb> Scant, so you have 37GB of unpartitioned space?
[11:16] <marx2k> zeus: are you sure that the router will show currently open upnp ports? Mine doesnt :/
[11:17] <Scant> no - 37gb is partioned to NTFS
[11:17] <flake> can't find X libraries - which one in synaptic is that?
[11:17] <Scant> the is NO unpartioned space
[11:17] <clearze1> sgrove: use gparted
[11:17] <marx2k> also, how does azureus know the ip of the router?
[11:17] <zeus> I am using speedtouch 530, and I am sure. I do it with windows all the time
[11:17] <marx2k> like my router is 192.168.11.1 ..
[11:17] <jussi01> grrr...damn printer
[11:17] <Scant> 37gb partioned to NTFS - there is no unpartioned space
[11:17] <marx2k> !upnp

[11:18] <LustigerGsell> Heey anyone knows how I replace my actual "primary sound driver" with the second one?
[11:18] <zeus> marx2k I don't have a clue how does it now. I am telling you in windows it's working.
[11:18] <marx2k> i really dont know how az deals with the router
[11:19] <marx2k> you might want to google the search term "site:ubuntuforums.org upnp"
[11:19] <niyi> thx for teadvice on uilding guys.... figured i all out now
[11:19] <niyi> thx for the advice on building guys... got it alll figured now

[11:31] <zcat[1] > harisund: very easy; fork-bomb.
[11:31] <RememberPOL> For some reason, running `ntpdate`, even after selecting several server in `time-admin` still says "no servers can be used, exiting".
[11:31] <jo_> !botsnack
[11:31] <ubotu> Yum!
[11:31] <bruenig> perhaps
[11:31] <harisund> zcat[1] : yes.. I am aware o that.. that's not the problem this time. Besides, even if that happens, how do I kill it?
[11:31] <harisund> I mean, does the CPU just freeze itself up?
[11:31] <bruenig> but on that premise this channel becomes near obsolete since 90% of the solutions can be found googling
[11:31] <zcat[1] > harisund: You can limit the number of processes any user can fork with ulimit..
[11:32] <crdlb> RememberPOL, ntpdate is just used like this: ntpdate ntp.server.com
[11:32] <Hirvinen> bruenig: Exactly. Although the Ubuntu Wiki would usually be a better place than google. If people searched it *
[11:33] <Hirvinen> Grrt.
[11:33] <bruenig> the wiki sucks
[11:33] <bruenig> imo
[11:33] <jo_> LustigerGsell: hi, what os>?
[11:33] <jo_> !alsa > LustigerGsell
[11:33] <harisund> This time though it was not a problem with many processes. It was a problem of a single process having too many threads.
[11:34] <RememberPOL> crdlb: There's no way to have `ntpdate` use the list saved by `time-admin`?
[11:34] <Hirvinen> ... *and* read the instructions there, which imho are often very good and mostly okay, only the more difficult problems would be left here.
[11:34] <spinster> how can i force to close a windows? like contorl alt supr
[11:34] <RememberPOL> Alt+F4?
[11:35] <spinster> dunno :)
[11:35] <RememberPOL> Or Ctrl+W?
[11:35] <crdlb> RememberPOL, no but the ntp-client init script does
[11:35] <RememberPOL> crdlb: Do you know where the `time-admin` list is saved on disk?
[11:35] <jo_> spinster: open terminal and type sudo xkill, the mousepointer changes to deadhead and klik on window to forceclose
[11:35] <RememberPOL> crdlb: Or, even the location of the ntp-client init script?
[11:35] <crdlb> RememberPOL, /etc/ntp.conf
[11:36] <Clearzen> how do you send raw ftp commands using gftp?
[11:36] <spinster> jo_ and 1st to fuck your mum

[11:40] <sgrove> ah, I see

[11:42] <Stormbind> could someone please help me get java running on firefox?
[11:42] <atomiku> So, how do I set up IP masquerading?
[11:43] <wonderboy> Clearzen : Have you try to exploit it?
[11:43] <linxeh> Stormbind: just install sun-java5-jre
[11:43] <ernst> bruenig, what do you mean?
[11:43] <Stormbind> linxeh, didn't work
[11:43] <distant_voice> I need to run this command "echo "/usr/local/games/joequake/joequake-gl.glx 0 0 direct" > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss" at startup. it requires super user priviledges. How can I do that?
[11:43] <bruenig> ernst, copy over the config directory for rhythmbox
[11:43] <Clearzen> wonderboy: It's a xbox. I have ftp access. I just want to drop a drive in it and format it.
[11:43] <linxeh> Stormbind: are you running 64bit ubuntu ?
[11:43] <Stormbind> npe
[11:44] <Stormbind> nope
[11:44] <linxeh> Stormbind: ok, did it install the package ?
[11:44] <ernst> bruenig, i don't think that awnsers my question
[11:44] <bruenig> distant_voice, put it in a script and call it from /etc/rc.local
[11:44] <distant_voice> bruenig: thx, I'll try that
[11:44] <bruenig> distant_voice, oh at startup
[11:44] <ernst> bruenig, in the Rhythmbox config you can turn on music sharing....
[11:44] <bruenig> I read boot
[11:45] <ernst> bruenig, i just can't find out what it does
[11:45] <bruenig> distant_voice, probably some audioscrobbler thing
[11:45] <Stormbind> I installed Sun hava 5.o runtime and plugin from the add/remove programs menu
[11:45] <bioz> Somebody here ?
[11:45] <atomiku> What was that gparted program?
[11:45] <bioz> I need informations for ubotu can somebody help me ?
[11:45] <bruenig> !hi | bioz
[11:45] <ubotu> bioz: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[11:46] <bruenig> !gparted | atomiku
[11:46] <ubotu> atomiku: 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
[11:46] <bioz> i need informations who owns the bot ubotu
[11:46] <ikonia> bioz: what do you want
[11:46] <linxeh> Stormbind: and youc closed all open firefox instances ?
[11:46] <atomiku> Ahh... Doesnt come with ubuntu by default
[11:46] <atomiku> Okay thanks :)
[11:46] <bioz> ikonia: who owns the bot ubotu ?
[11:46] <bruenig> !bot | bioz
[11:46] <ubotu> bioz: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[11:46] <distant_voice> bruenig: what's the difference? startup is when X is restarted? I think at boot is okay. the problem is that to do it I have to become root, sudo doesn't work. will that work?
[11:46] <Stormbind> linxeh, correct
[11:46] <ikonia> the ubuntu operators maintain him
[11:46] <nexous> When i type `conky` in terminal I get "Conky: can't open display:"
[11:46] <bioz> bruenig: can somebody help me to i set scripts in my shell and to i make bot like ubotu ?
[11:46] <bruenig> distant_voice, yeah I don't think there will be a problem, I just noticed though that i misread it
[11:46] <distant_voice> bruenig: and I think you messaged the wrong person with that audioscrobbler-thing
[11:46] <ikonia> conkey is a doll from trailer park boys
[11:47] <crdlb> nexous, you need to run it in X
[11:47] <wonderboy> Clearzen : Solder a bridge in your Xbox, see the tutorials in google
[11:47] <bioz> bruenig: i need to make bot for helping..
[11:47] <linxeh> Stormbind: do you have two directories in  /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/jre/plugin/i386 ?
[11:47] <nexous> crdlb: and that means? Sorry i'm the n00b.
[11:47] <ikonia> bioz: there are plenty out there
[11:47] <ikonia> all free
[11:47] <Stormbind> hang on I'll check
[11:47] <ernst> bruenig, it looks like the music sharing from itunes but  don't know
[11:47] <bioz> ikonia: so can you help me tell me where are scripts to i set the scripts in my shell can you ?
[11:47] <nexous> I got it.
[11:47] <atomiku> Hmm... How do I set up IP masquerading/Internet sharing?
[11:47] <crdlb> nexous, when you say that you ran it in a terminal what do you mean
[11:47] <Chamuco> how can i map extended keys on a keyboard?
[11:47] <crdlb> nm
[11:47] <Majortom> how do i monitor my battery life from cli?
[11:47] <nexous> Sorry, clicked Alt f4, rather than f2
[11:48] <ikonia> bioz: just google for irc bots - and you'll get loads of options
[11:48] <nexous> crdlb: you meant from Alt F2?
[11:48] <nexous> I ran there, and it displays it now.
[11:48] <linxeh> Stormbind: and the files     /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin.so and /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libjavaplugin.so
[11:48] <crdlb> nexous, that'll work
[11:48] <Clearzen> wonderboy: no thats okay. I'm just going to do a netinstall via ftp
[11:48] <Clearzen> much easier
[11:48] <bioz> ikonia: but i need the questions and answers from that bot to i set in my shell, is that possible ?
[11:48] <ikonia> bioz: what do you want it to help with ? ubuntu ?
[11:48] <Ferret> Majortom: Usually *something* like cat /proc/acpi/battery/info
[11:49] <Stormbind> linxeh yes....directories ns7 and ns7-gcc29
[11:49] <bioz> ikonia: yes
[11:49] <Majortom> bleg thanks Ferret
[11:49] <ikonia> bioz: just use the bot in here - it has to be run on an irc server so unless you have an irc server you can't run it
[11:49] <linxeh> Stormbind: and those files I said ?
[11:49] <Elko> huh?! what's this? I got 27 updates available and now it (synaptic) recommends a distribution update?
[11:49] <bioz> ikonia: but i don't know the commands :|
[11:49] <bioz> ikonia: can you tell me all commands for help ?
[11:49] <bioz> a
[11:49] <linxeh> Elko: sounds about right
[11:49] <ikonia> bioz: help with what
[11:50] <bioz> ikonia: can i help myself with that bot ?
[11:50] <bioz> a
[11:50] <linxeh> atomiku: google has lots of hits for "ubuntu internet sharing" - eg http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=91370
[11:50] <ikonia> bioz: yes you can ask the bot questions
[11:50] <Ferret> Majortom: There are various programs you can use to set scripts when it hits certain values, whatever -- search for acpi in the packages list. ;)
[11:50] <bioz> like !connection !mp3 !blabal.. something like that
[11:50] <bioz> bioz: to i msg him ?
[11:50] <ikonia> bioz: yes, message him or ask him stuff
[11:50] <atomiku> thanks linxeh, I was googling for "IP MASQUERADING UBUNTU"
[11:50] <Majortom> Ferret, cool i'll do that
[11:50] <biozone> aha okay, thank you alot.
[11:50] <biozone> :)
[11:50] <biozone> brb..
[11:51] <linxeh> atomiku: IP masquerading hasn't been in linux since the 2.0 kernel, about 7-8 years ago
[11:51] <Elko> linxeh: last time I did that, I had to troubleshoot more than I had time for then
[11:51] <linxeh> atomiku: it is now called iptables
[11:51] <atomiku> Oh.
[11:51] <linxeh> Elko: all dist-upgrade should do is download the latest versions of packages, eg for security fixes
[11:51] <distant_voice> bruenig: I rebooted, it doesn't work. do you have another idea?
[11:51] <linxeh> Elko: Ive done it daily here for months on several machines with no ill effects
[11:52] <atomiku> How do I find out which IP ethX uses?
[11:52] <q_> open office 2.0 give <the application annot be started. An internal error occured> Any hints?
[11:52] <linxeh> atomiku: ifconfig
[11:52] <wonderboy> Does somebody know if if can do IP routing with interface alises?
[11:52] <SmileyLap> i dont belive this :( - i tried to update and my laptop over heated and hosed its self :(
[11:52] <linxeh> wonderboy: I think so - I used to do routing on eth0:0 etc
[11:52] <atomiku> linxeh: Okay :D
[11:52] <Vegeta^> Why is it that the sound in YouTube (or similar) videos are always out of sync? How to fix this?
[11:52] <bruenig> distant_voice, supposedly you are supposed to be able to edit /etc/sudoers to allow some commands to be run without a password by regular users. I have tried to get it to work but have never been able
[11:53] <ernst> \
[11:53] <wonderboy> linexh : thx
[11:53] <linxeh> Vegeta^: possibly a soundcard driver / config error
[11:53] <Stormbind> linxeh, I opened a dialog window for us
[11:53] <linxeh> Stormbind: I haven't seen anything yet :) you might need to start talking
[11:53] <distant_voice> bruenig: :( what file did I edit again? I want to remove that command even if it does nothing
[11:53] <bruenig> distant_voice, /etc/rc.local
[11:53] <Stormbind> linxeh: I have
[11:54] <Marupa> is there a flash editor for ubuntu?
[11:54] <distant_voice> bruenig: thx a lot
[11:54] <linxeh> Stormbind: you need to register with nickserv to send private messages
[11:54] <Vegeta^> linxeh: Well I can watch some videos where the sound isn't out of sync.
[11:54] <nikato> i have macbook but was advised to join this channel. does anyone know if feisty will install using regular desktop cd or  do I have to use alternatesince it is macbook
[11:54] <Cooner750> The mouse cursor animations flickering is bothering me. Is there any way to fix it?
[11:54] <crdlb> Marupa, no
[11:54] <Vegeta^> linxeh: Not YouTube, but other files like .avi
[11:54] <linxeh> Cooner750: mine doesnt flicker
[11:54] <Cooner750> I have the nVidia drivers installed, so it cant be a problem related to that
[11:55] <dyrne> nikato: its i386? or ppc?
[11:55] <distant_voice> I need to run a command at boot or startup with root priviledges. I need to become root, sudo doesn't work. How can I do that automatically?
[11:55] <dyrne> nikato: intel?
[11:55] <linxeh> Cooner750: why can't it? the nvidia drivers arent exactly bug-free
[11:55] <Cooner750> linxeh: it did it before
[11:55] <linxeh> Cooner750: ok :)
[11:55] <linxeh> Cooner750: what card do you have ?
[11:56] <Stormbind> linxeh: ok I have the file libjavaplugin.so located in the /usr/lib/firefox/plugins and /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
[11:56] <linxeh> Stormbind: hmm - same as me then - have you closed every firefox window?
[11:56] <Stormbind> yeah
[11:56] <Stormbind> but I will retry
[11:56] <linxeh> Stormbind: try "sudo killall firefox-bin" at the command prompt
[11:56] <Stormbind> k

[11:59] <Spec> distant_voice: with sudo's in front of everything
[11:59] <q_> do not hurry with answers :)
[11:59] <bruenig> miles_, perhaps it is
