[12:01] <eck> toas1: repair it how?
[12:01] <grndslm> Taime1:  you should be wanting to right click and "save target as..."
[12:01] <Eko_Hermiyanto> I have a compaq presario c300  laptop
[12:01] <Taime1> well, see, i would normally do that
[12:01] <toas1> I accidentally blew out some package or packages that are integral to Debian
[12:01] <Eko_Hermiyanto> an in the specification only tells 802.11 b/g WLAN\
[12:01] <Hasrat_USA> when i right click on my KDE desktop and go to 'select/switch user', i see 1. hasrat Kde and 2. hasrat TTY login
[12:01] <Eko_Hermiyanto> for wireless technologies
[12:01] <toas1> so that I have no desk top, no icons, no menues or anything to control
[12:01] <irunwithscissors> eko: ok let me go see if i can find it on google
[12:01] <adam_> How do I add a printer using CUPS web interface?
[12:01] <Taime1> but it seems like the last time i did that, there wasnt an option for it, or i wouldnt even be asking... but i might be wrong
[12:01] <Eko_Hermiyanto> I don't know how to go
[12:01] <toas1> I have the install cd, that's what I'm running on
[12:02] <Eko_Hermiyanto> irunwithscissors, thank you very much
[12:02] <Taime1> ill boot my linux box, try it, and be back
[12:02] <eck> toas1: ugh, if you read the dpkg man page you can probably figure out what to do
[12:02] <irunwithscissors> eko: do you have windows installed on this computer?
[12:02] <toas1> But I don't see any option to just repair or reinstall, I'd have to repartition the drive and lose all my data
[12:02] <Eko_Hermiyanto> irunwithscissors, no
[12:02] <Eko_Hermiyanto> I just using ubuntu
[12:02] <Eko_Hermiyanto> I love it very much
[12:02] <irunwithscissors> eko: ok, i'll go look for ur card
[12:02] <Linux_User348975> Hello all
[12:02] <toas1> dpkg man page?
[12:02] <tainter> when watching videos on youtube, firefox often crashes. when i ran it out of the terminal, the crash message is "Segmentation fault (core dumped)(2)"
[12:02] <Eko_Hermiyanto> thanks
[12:02] <eck> toas1: ok, here is what you want to do
[12:03] <crdlb> tainter, ther crash is probably related to flash
[12:03] <adam_> tainter: I was thinking flash, too
[12:03] <eck> toas1: boot the live cd, chroot into your old install, see if you can fix things with apt. if that doesn't work you can force it with dpkg (still inside the chroot)
[12:03] <crdlb> tainter, are you running (
[12:03] <tainter> ?
[12:03] <crdlb> tainter, are you running 9
[12:03] <mindstate> are there any "unneccessary" daemons that can be killed in linux? maybe even stopped from autostarting something like services.msc in windows?
[12:03] <crdlb> whoops
[12:03] <erUSUL> Hasrat_USA: as i said both users are you one the x sessionand one in one terminal if you have more terminals launched you will see more users
[12:03] <eck> I am about to go to class though, see if you can find someone else to walk you through it
[12:03] <tainter> crdlb, i don't know what you mean
[12:03] <toas1> Thanks, eck. I guess I'll hit the net and look up every third term you used
[12:03] <crdlb> flash 9
[12:04] <adam_> Has anyone gotten an HP printer to print on a server install?
[12:04] <irunwithscissors> eko: i don't see it but go look on google for a while, you should be able to find it
[12:04] <toas1> Seriously, how do I chroot into the old install?
[12:04] <Eko_Hermiyanto> irunwithscissors, thanks
[12:04] <h1st0> toas1: chroot /dev/hda1
[12:04] <crdlb> tainter, I meant: are you running flash 9?
[12:04] <h1st0> toas1: or whereever its at
[12:05] <tainter> crdlb: yeah, but it happened with other flash versions also
[12:05] <toas1> That would be it
[12:05] <crdlb> tainter, flash 9 is an improvement over v7
[12:05] <robbie_crash> Is there a way when configuring a program for install to make it use a different package than the one it's calling for?
[12:05] <tainter> crdlb, i've got Shockwave Flash 9.0 r31 (from about:plugins) it still gives me problems though
[12:05] <toas1> chroot: cannot change root directory to /dev/hda1: Not a directory
[12:06] <Agrajag> toas1: that's not a directory, that's a device
[12:06] <h1st0> toas1: ahh i'm sorry
[12:06] <robbie_crash> for instance, banshee installing wants to use dbus-1 and dbus-glib-1 but those have been replaced with dbus and dbus-glib-1-3
[12:06] <toas1> thnx
[12:06] <toas1> brb
[12:06] <h1st0> toas1: you'd have to mount /dev/hda1 then chroot to the folder its mounted to.
[12:07] <crdlb> tainter, I don't know what you could to to fix it (esp. since it's closed source so there aren't multiple builds)
[12:07] <h1st0> robbie_crash: what do you mean building from source?  and changing dependencies?
[12:07] <robbie_crash> h1st0: I guess, yeah
[12:07] <h1st0> robbie_crash: you can use checkinstall to create your own debs and specify version dependencies etc...
[12:07] <tainter> crdlb: i'll just boot into windows to use flash
[12:07] <_goofy_> is there a way to serch for and delete orphened and unused files
[12:08] <robbie_crash> from what I understand I do: sudo ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr --enable-avahi --disable-docs
[12:08] <robbie_crash> which configures it
[12:08] <crdlb> tainter, give opera a try
[12:08] <robbie_crash> then make install oit
[12:08] <robbie_crash> *it
[12:08] <tainter> crdlb, alright, i'll see
[12:08] <h1st0> robbie_crash: yeah then you would build it using make   then to create a deb you would use checkinstall.
[12:08] <Taime1> hey crdlb
[12:08] <NegativeSpace> Is it possible to write the output from a command; say, ls, to a file?
[12:08] <h1st0> robbie_crash: that way if its all messed up you could jsut remove the deb with dpkg -r nameofdeb.deb
[12:08] <Taime1> what about tainter's java?
[12:09] <Taime1> could that be the problem?
[12:09] <mjr> NegativeSpace, ls > file
[12:09] <h1st0> NegativeSpace: yes ls > filename
[12:09] <tainter> Taime1, how could it be java?
[12:09] <crdlb> Taime1, it's crashing on youtube
[12:09] <robbie_crash> thanks h1st0
[12:09] <NegativeSpace> h1st0, mjr: Thanks.
[12:09] <Taime1> well, i know that i have had issues with flash and stuff if my java version wasnt set correctly
[12:09] <h1st0> robbie_crash: np yeah google up checkinstall It sounds like thats what you are looking for.
[12:09] <goear> is there any way to solve RAM problems?
[12:10] <Taime1> someone showed me how to fix that
[12:10] <dooglus> !info synfig
[12:10] <ubotu> synfig: vector-based 2D animation package. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.61.05-6 (edgy), package size 1212 kB, installed size 1456 kB
[12:10] <K3nto> hey guys
[12:10] <crdlb> tainter, java could be the problem
[12:10] <dooglus> !info synfigstudio
[12:10] <ubotu> synfigstudio: vector-based 2D animation package (graphical user interface). In component universe, is extra. Version 0.61.05-3 (edgy), package size 1288 kB, installed size 4300 kB
[12:10] <Subhuman> goear, what ram problerms do you mean?
[12:10] <K3nto> can i install Ubuntu from a thumbdrive?
[12:10] <Slart> pulseaudio needs libc6 >2.5 but edgy only has libc6 2.4, can I install libc6 2.5 and still have libc6 2.4 installed?
[12:10] <goear> Subhuman: I dont really know when I try toinstall Ubuntu it launches the memory test automatically
[12:10] <goear> something must be detecting
[12:11] <Taime1> i forget the command, tainter, to select the version of java you want your system to use
[12:11] <Taime1> anyone?
[12:11] <crdlb> Taime1, tainter is MIA
[12:11] <Taime1> i see
[12:12] <Subhuman> goear, i've never heard of that behavior - you sure your selecting the correct option?
[12:12] <Subhuman> AND - if you run it - does it show any errorS?
[12:12] <goear> yeah
[12:12] <Nukez> If I have something plugged in to line in... how can I hear it through my speakers?
[12:13] <Subhuman> Nukez, type "alsamixer" in terminal - and move left and right with the left/right keys
[12:13] <Subhuman> and unmute the line in
[12:13] <buches> I installed NetworkManager, but it doesn't show up in the Notification Area.  Any help?
[12:13] <crdlb> Nukez, you may need to use the up arrow to raise the volume too
[12:14] <Subhuman> or Nukez - "sudo apt-get install alsamixergui" to get a gui version which is nice
[12:14] <h1st0> buches: maybe you have to add it.
[12:14] <h1st0> Subhuman: nice gui version didn't know that was there.
[12:14] <Subhuman> buches, you normally need to log out and log back in
[12:14] <Stormx2> K3nto: Why would you want to?
[12:14] <buches> I have rebooted after install
[12:14] <buches> it doesn't show up in my "add to panel"
[12:14] <K3nto> because the computer i want to put it on has no dvd drive
[12:14] <h1st0> K3nto: yes
[12:14] <K3nto> just cd
[12:14] <Subhuman> h1st0, yeah i find it's easier to use if your constantly changing volume
[12:14] <crdlb> buches, try running nm-applet
[12:15] <Stormx2> K3nto: So get the CD version?
[12:15] <h1st0> K3nto: you can install from usb drive
[12:15] <Subhuman> buches, thats cuz its not an applet - restart the machine
[12:15] <Subhuman> thats the easiest way to start it.
[12:15] <crdlb> buches, and make sure you have a notification area (ie system tray) in your panel
[12:15] <h1st0> Subhuman: well I just use gnome volume manager works fine.
[12:15] <K3nto> no blank cds
[12:15] <K3nto> none that work anyway
[12:15] <Subhuman> h1st0, it doesnt show all my sources and stuff.
[12:15] <farous> On ubuntu dapper i am trying to run matlab which uses flexlm license manager. Though am trying to start the licence manager it never do really start. the same matlab running fine on mandrake 10.
[12:15] <h1st0> K3nto: If the computer would support booting to usb i'm sure its possible I've heard of people doing it.
[12:15] <buches> nm-applet is running; it's an auto-startup in my sessions.  ps shows it running as, "nm-applet --sm-disable
[12:15] <Stormx2> K3nto: Well it *is* possible, but quite frankly I'd just buy some more CDs...
[12:16] <tjl30> does anyone know if there is a program like trillian for linux
[12:16] <buches> does the sm-disable mean anything?
[12:16] <Stormx2> tjl30: GAIM
[12:16] <Falkon4860> Can I ask a hardware question here without getting flamed?  To be fair it is hardware for my Ubuntu box
[12:16] <h1st0> K3nto: just do some google 'm sure there are numerous howtos out ther.e
[12:16] <jrib> farous: does this help: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MATLAB
[12:16] <Stormx2> Falkon4860: Go for it.
[12:16] <Nukez> Subhuman: Thanks
[12:16] <Falkon4860> k cool
[12:16] <tjl30> ya but thats just for aim I mean one for aim, msn, ect
[12:16] <crdlb> buches, that's normal; make sure the network manager service is started
[12:16] <farous> jrib, thanx will check it out for sure
[12:16] <Stormx2> tjl30: GAIM.
[12:16] <Stormx2> tjl30: Supports MSN, AIM, ICQ, Jabber, Gadu Gadu, YIM, GTalk...

[12:16] <farous> ok off to reading hope will not be back thanx all
[12:17] <tjl30> o
[12:17] <tjl30> I didn't know that
[12:17] <Stormx2> ;) The name is a little misleading isn't it?
[12:17] <buches> I have two processes running that look like NetworkManager
[12:17] <buches> root      4206     1  0 16:02 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/NetworkManager --pid-file /var/run/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.pid
[12:17] <buches> root      4221     1  0 16:02 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/NetworkManagerDispatcher --pid-file /var/run/NetworkManager/NetworkManagerDispatcher.pid
[12:17] <maax> re
[12:17] <tjl30> yup
[12:17] <h1st0> tjl30: yeap if you are using kubuntu ther is kopete does the same thing as well.
[12:17] <tjl30> can you log into multiple accounts ?
[12:17] <h1st0> tjl30: yeap
[12:17] <Stormx2> Yep.
[12:18] <Falkon4860> I recently blew the 275w PSU in my Asus P3-PH4 (see Newegg for specs and pics) case when running with a new video card (Radeon X1600 Pro).     Now I need a new PSU with 350w absolute minimum that will FIT IN A LOW PROFILE CASE.  My current PSU is 210mm x 80mm x 65mm, so it needs to be very similar to that to fit
[12:18] <Falkon4860> Any suggestions?
[12:18] <crdlb> buches, have you rebooted?
[12:18] <degreseven> i installed the slab menu using automatix, but It doesn't show up as an option for being added to the gnome menu. The "main menu" option still just adds the regular gnome menu. Can anyone help me?
[12:18] <buches> crdlb: yes, I have rebooted
[12:18] <mindstate> are there any "unneccessary" daemons that can be killed in linux? maybe even stopped from autostarting something like services.msc in windows?
[12:18] <Stormx2> Falkon4860: I'm not sure anyone could help in here. Tried #hardware ?
[12:19] <tjl30> in kopete or gaim ?
[12:19] <Subhuman> Falkon4860, look for "micro atx psu's "there normally very slim design and still fit normal connections and stuff.
[12:19] <youkilldkennedy> How does one mount an ISO in ubuntu?
[12:19] <Falkon4860> not yet
[12:19] <Subhuman> mindstate, yeah of course
[12:19] <buches> crdlb: thank you, I didn't actually have a system tray up there, I see it now
[12:19] <fesurv> exit
[12:19] <Subhuman> mindstate, in gnome - goto system/admin/services

[12:19] <Subhuman> you can shut things down in there.
[12:19] <SpacePuppy> Falkon4860: them new Radeon cards rock! I upgraded to 500watt!
[12:19] <Falkon4860> I looked for mATX PSUs but they were all more square whereas mine is rectangular, and the fan and switch are on one end as opposed to the top or bottom
[12:19] <systemd0wn> how can i tell what driver my wireless card is using?
[12:19] <Falkon4860> puppy, yeah they do!
[12:20] <K3nto> arg
[12:20] <Slart> I could use some emergency help here.. I installed a newer version of libc6 (2.5 instead of 2.4) on my Edgy system..... now synaptic wants to uninstall almost everything... how can I save my system? can I just reinstall the old version of libc6 without using synaptic?
[12:20] <Falkon4860> If someone could send me a link to some place that sells or makes low profile PSUs that would be awesome, but any help is appreciated
[12:20] <Stormx2> Slart: Woh... bad move
[12:20] <K3nto> windows is a bother now
[12:20] <K3nto> back to ubuntu!
[12:20] <Falkon4860> I just want to be able to turn on my comp again (and stop using windows on my other one :D)
[12:21] <Slart> Stormx2: hehe.. yea.. I kind of found that out a little late
[12:21] <Jared777u> Could anyone give me a hand on reinstallng grub?  I had a multiboot with xp and ubuntu but had to reinstall XP thus over writing Grub
[12:21] <Spec> Slart: you could try to boot a livecd, mount your linux partition, chroot in, and then replace libc6 with the original version
[12:21] <Spec> Slart: or you could try shooting yourself in the foot
[12:22] <Stormx2> Spec: He's already done that ;)
[12:22] <Stormx2> !grub | Jared777u

[12:22] <mindstate> Subhuman, ahhh thank you :)
[12:22] <tjl30> does anyone have LinuxBIOS?
[12:22] <youkilldkennedy> I'm trying to mount my ISO, what do I put as a mountpoint?
[12:23] <mindstate> youkilldkennedy, make a dir in /media
[12:23] <youkilldkennedy> Ahh, thanks
[12:23] <systemd0wn> how can i tell what driver my wireless card is using?
[12:24] <Jared777u> I wnt to terminal and did the grub root (hdo,4) setup(hd0,4) quit thing and it is still not loading
[12:24] <Jared777u> and I used csidk to make my Linux partition the bootable one
[12:24] <tjl30> how do you message people in a channel?
[12:24] <robbie_crash> Where can I find old versions of packages?
[12:24] <jrib> tjl30: just prefix what you say with their name
[12:24] <robbie_crash> tjl30: /msg <user name>
[12:24] <kitche> Jared777u: did you do root (hdo,4) or hd0,4
[12:24] <Jared777u> root (hdo,4)
[12:25] <kitche> Jared777u: that's why it's suppose to be (hd0,4)
[12:25] <Stormx2> (hdo,4) ?
[12:25] <Slart> I just did a manual install of the older libc package
[12:25] <robbie_crash> tjl30: jrib's probably right, mine will send a private message to them
[12:25] <Jared777u> root (hd0,4) sorry
[12:25] <Slart> everything is back to normal again...*breathes again*
[12:25] <tavaanaa1> where can i find information on how to install xgl compiz?
[12:25] <tjl30> ok
[12:26] <crdlb> tavaanaa1, see #ubuntu-effects
[12:26] <Slart> tavaanaa1: try beryl instead
[12:26] <Slart> !beryl | tavaanaa1
[12:26] <ubotu> tavaanaa1: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[12:26] <robbie_crash> tavaanaa1:  beryl's way easier to install and runs better for almost everyone
[12:26] <tavaanaa1> thank you
[12:26] <SpudDogg> OPINION:  I can't even remember the last time I booted into Windows.  Do you think it's safe for me to take it off my machine and install Kubuntu just to play with it?
[12:27] <crdlb> Am I the only one who actually likes compiz?
[12:27] <robbie_crash> crdlb: you're the only one
[12:27] <degreseven> yes
[12:27] <Jared777u> with hda1 being my primary NTFS hda5 being linux ext3 and hda5 being linux swap
[12:27] <SilentDis> crdlb, I like beryl, which is based on compiz anyway.  so, by recursion, I like compiz :D
[12:27] <robbie_crash> crdlb: I actually don't know anyone who doesn't like it, but I don't know anyone who's got it running properly
[12:28] <crdlb> Robbie_Crash, wfm (on gentoo though)
[12:28] <tonyyarusso> crdlb: I like the concept, but it doesn't run great here.
[12:28] <jrib> SpudDogg: well yes in the sense that you can use the space windows is taking up for something better.  But, no in the sense that you can try kubuntu by installing kubuntu-desktop.  You can switch between kde and gnome at the login screen
[12:28] <Robbie_Crash> Is there somewhere I can download outdated packages?
[12:28] <tonyyarusso> SpudDogg: If you aren't using Windows, not much sense keeping it.  I wiped mine after it had been dormant like 6 months, but I'm kind of slow that way.
[12:29] <tonyyarusso> Robbie_Crash: packages.ubuntu.com has stuff for many Ubuntu releases
[12:29] <dooglus> what is the default DPI setting in GNOME?
[12:29] <SpudDogg> jrib:  You mean I can just run 'sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop' and then switch at boot?  Are you sure I won't screw up my Ubuntu installation if I do that?
[12:29] <youkilldkennedy> whats the terminal command to make a directory?
[12:29] <Robbie_Crash> crdlb: I just gave up on it, especially after beryl installed like nothing
[12:29] <Robbie_Crash> youkilldkennedy: mkdir
[12:29] <youkilldkennedy> thanks

[12:30] <Jvik> how can i boost microphone volume? The volume is toooooo low
[12:30] <youkilldkennedy> I made a directory in the media folder, how to I point the mount command to it?
[12:30] <crdlb> Jvik, look for a microphone boost in alsamixer
[12:30] <irunwithscissors> jvik : type 'alsamixer' into terminal
[12:31] <youkilldkennedy> !iso
[12:31] <ubotu> To mount an ISO disc image, type "sudo mount -o loop my.iso <mountpoint>" There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before burning. Burning .iso files: see !burn
[12:31] <jrib> SpudDogg: you don't switch at boot, you just choose your desktop environment when you login.  It's perfectly safe, ubuntu just has GNOME by default (ubuntu-desktop pacakge) and Kubuntu has kde by default (kubuntu-desktop) package.  But everything else is the same, they use the same repositories, etc.  It shouldn't mess anything up.  I'd recommend using  aptitude install kubunt-desktop  since that will allow you to easily remove kubuntu-desktop and its deps
[12:31] <Linux_User348975> I can't get my dsl connection to work with ubuntu, any suggestions?
[12:31] <h1st0> jrib: I think removing kubuntu-desktop won't remove its deps though.
[12:31] <Jvik> how the heck do i use alsamixer? :P what is microphone ?
[12:31] <h1st0> !dsl | Linux_User348975
[12:31] <ubotu> Linux_User348975: Setting up an ADSL/PPPoE connection? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE
[12:31] <jrib> h1st0: it will if you use aptitude
[12:32] <Linux_User348975> thank you
[12:32] <jrib> h1st0: *unused* deps at least :)
[12:32] <SilentDis> Linux_User348975, what kind of DSL equipment do you have?  is it 'straight' DSL, PPPoE, is there a router involved?
[12:32] <h1st0> jrib: yea most the kde apps will still hang around.  I just wish it would keep gnome menus seperate from kde menus.  But oh well.
[12:32] <SpudDogg> jrib:  So I'm really only installing the KDE then.  That sounds to me like all of my settings (network, /etc/apt/sources.list, etc) will still be used.  Is that correct?
[12:32] <Jvik> how do i choose volume on input irunwithscissors ?
[12:32] <RandomizeR> hey guys, i need to move my linux from hda7 to sda1 (new drive), and at the same time make a /home partition.. can someone please talk to me, i did find lots of how-tos but i kinda need to talk to a human about this
[12:33] <crdlb> SpudDogg, it's just a different Desktop environment
[12:33] <irunwithscissors> jvik: arrow keys up and down
[12:33] <joshua__> so, is this the ubuntu help chan, or is there a seperate channel strictly for that?
[12:33] <crdlb> SpudDogg, the cores of the *buntu's are identical
[12:33] <RandomizeR> i have the Ubuntu live cd, which i know i'll use to copy the files to the new drive
[12:33] <Jvik> irunwithscissors, yes i understand that. But wich one of those things am i supposed to choose ?
[12:33] <crdlb> joshua__, this is the help channel
[12:33] <joshua__> ok. thanks.
[12:33] <irunwithscissors> jvik: you wanted input, right?
[12:33] <jrib> SpudDogg: yes, you are right.  You are installing kde and the kubuntu applications like its text editor, browser, ...
[12:34] <joshua__> i'm tryign to figure out a bcm4311 problem...just going to idle in here in case i get stuck
[12:34] <joshua__> .
[12:34] <Jvik> irunwithscissors, yes. But i there is no way i can turn that up. :S
[12:34] <jrib> SpudDogg: you can have dozens of window manager to choose from if you want
[12:34] <irunwithscissors> jvik: press tab to go over to capture, then turn it up
[12:34] <IndyGunFreak> joshua__: thats wireless right?
[12:34] <SpudDogg> crdlb, jrib:  Thanks.  But, jrib, I have been meaning to ask someone who knows what the difference between 'apt-get' and 'aptitude' are.
[12:34] <Jvik> aha :) thanks
[12:34] <crdlb> IndyGunFreak, yes, broadcom
[12:34] <irunwithscissors> np :)
[12:35] <IndyGunFreak> !wireless | joshua__
[12:35] <ubotu> joshua__: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[12:35] <SilentDis> RandomizeR, I'm very particular about hardware configs... I'd be the first to recommend a reinstall after backing up your /var/cache/apt/archives, /home, and /etc/apt/sources.list, and then reinstall how you want it, finally restore everything.  that's just me though.  there is other ways to do it (using dd and such), but as I said, I prefer to make things from 'scratch' when i'm upgrading major hardware
[12:35] <SpudDogg> !aptitude
[12:35] <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
[12:35] <h1st0> SpudDogg: aptitude handles removal of dependencies better than apt-get
[12:35] <grndslm> aptitude rulez!
[12:35] <IndyGunFreak> crdlb: i thought it was, just wasn't a 100%
[12:35] <youkilldkennedy> Why does it tell me my mount point does not exsist even after I made a directory in /media?
[12:35] <jrib> SpudDogg: well aptitude has an ncurses interface too.  The most important difference imo is that aptitude keeps track of when things are installed as dependencies.  So that if you install A and A pulls in B and C, then when you remove A, aptitude will tell you that B and C are no longer needed and let you remove them easily
[12:36] <iniakulohhahaha> how to install lex on ubuntu
[12:36] <kitche> youkilldkennedy: how are you trying to mount it the exact command your using
[12:36] <IndyGunFreak> iniakulohhahaha: lex?
[12:36] <iniakulohhahaha> yes
[12:36] <youkilldkennedy> sudo mount -o loop Civ4\ ISO.iso Civ4
[12:36] <wimpies> I have this dialog running from under adept-updater asking me for a nice value.  I cannot input any value (no textbox).  Clicking on next does not work (no value I presume) and cancel terminates installation
[12:36] <SpudDogg> h1st0, jrib:  cool thanks man...do you use that for all package installations instead of apt-get?
[12:36] <_cerberus_> does anyone know how to get a webcam working? It's produced by Vimicro and apparently uses the gspca driver but all I get is a blank screen when using camorama or spcagui
[12:36] <joshua__> indygunfreak: Yeah. the doc there is what i'm following for my card, I've just run into something when i try to modprobe ndiswrapper and i don't know what went wrong.
[12:36] <h1st0> SpudDogg: I do.
[12:36] <RandomizeR> SilentDis: i would normally do that, but i have been customizing this installation for a week now and i downloaded a ton of packages and installed a dozen big apps, so i kinda hate to re-do this all from scratch :-s
[12:36] <grndslm> youkilldkennedy... sudo mount -o loop ISO.iso /media/Civ4
[12:36] <grndslm> that's what that should look like
[12:37] <crdlb> SpudDogg, I would if I wasn't braindead
[12:37] <K3nto> what is the itues equivqlent for ubuntu
[12:37] <IndyGunFreak> joshua__: ok... sorry i'm clueless on wireless, bu tthere's a lot of smart folks here
[12:37] <h1st0> SpudDogg: the only thing I use apt-get for is if I'm building something form source I will use apt-get build-dep <packagename>
[12:37] <K3nto> !itunes
[12:37] <ubotu> itunes is not available on Linux, but there are many audio player alternatives (see !players). For Daap clients (sharing music with other iTunes clients on the network), install banshee
[12:37] <K3nto> 1players
[12:37] <joshua__> k3nto: amarok is awesome
[12:37] <Slart> K3nto: depends on what parts of itunes you want
[12:37] <K3nto> !players
[12:37] <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
[12:37] <jrib> SpudDogg: yes, I do.   for installation and removing I usually prefer aptitude.  Oh, aptitude installs "recommended" packages by default too, apt-get doesn't.  Here's the documentation, http://people.debian.org/~dburrows/aptitude-doc/en/, aptitude's search is really powerful too as you can see.
[12:37] <zeroflox> who can pastebin the normal ubuntu 6.10 sources.list for me pelase?
[12:37] <grndslm> add madman to the huge list of audo players
[12:37] <jrib> !sources | zeroflox
[12:37] <ubotu> zeroflox: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[12:37] <K3nto> amarok
[12:37] <Slart> K3nto: if it's synching with an ipod then I think amarok will do nicely..
[12:37] <youkilldkennedy> Thanks!
[12:37] <jrib> !easysource | zeroflox
[12:37] <ubotu> zeroflox: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[12:38] <SpudDogg> jrib, h1st0, crdlb:  Excellent.  Thanks very much fellas.
[12:38] <IndyGunFreak> iniakulohhahaha: it looks ilke JLex is in the repositories, description says, "A lex-style lexical analyser generator for java"
[12:38] <Slart> K3nto: but I don't think amarok will let you buy music from itunes
[12:38] <IndyGunFreak> iniakulohhahaha: you can try sudo apt-get install jlex
[12:38] <zeroflox> i dont want to make one..
[12:38] <zeroflox> i just want the original one
[12:38] <iniakulohhahaha> is jlex same with lex ?
[12:38] <irunwithscissors> i think it's possible to purchase itunes music through a browser window....not sure but i think i may have done it before
[12:39] <IndyGunFreak> iniakulohhahaha: the description says, "A Lex Style".. so I'm assuming it is.
[12:39] <IndyGunFreak> if its not, i guess you can always just remove it.
[12:39] <K3nto> cool, amarok is on the way
[12:39] <K3nto> i LOVE how streamlined ubuntu is
[12:39] <SpudDogg> Has anyone else noticed slow repos lately?
[12:39] <IndyGunFreak> K3nto: once you really start to get the hang of it, it is really easy
[12:40] <IndyGunFreak> SpudDogg: no, i've had no probs at all.
[12:40] <K3nto> i dont buy much music ;)
[12:40] <Slart> K3nto: I had some problems using the version in the repository.. I think I got a newer one from their site which worked better.. but it might just be me
[12:40] <_cerberus_> does anyone know how to get a webcam working? It's produced by Vimicro and apparently uses the gspca driver but all I get is a blank screen when using camorama or spcagui
[12:40] <zeroflox> who can pastebin the normal ubuntu 6.10 sources.list for me please, and dont link me to a site, because im just looking for the original.. not building my own..
[12:40] <iniakulohhahaha> is there any alternative ?
[12:40] <K3nto> ill check the versions
[12:40] <SpudDogg> IndyGunFreak, I used to download at around 800-900KB/s, but for the last few weeks its been at like 50-100KB/s.  Any suggestions?
[12:41] <irunwithscissors> spud: dont complain about 100 kb/s :P
[12:41] <IndyGunFreak> SpudDogg: its stayed average for me for a while...(around 250-300k)
[12:41] <RandomizeR> does anyone have enough info about moving my linux installation to a new hard drive?
[12:41] <lufi1> I'm wanting to run Beryl on some pretty meagre hardware (onboard intel 82845, released at least 4 years ago) and the wiki guide says that if the card supports direct rendering it will work. Mine doesn't... should I give up?
[12:41] <K3nto> i need info on memory card reade compatability
[12:41] <RandomizeR> i'd be very grateful for any assistance...
[12:41] <Slart> lufi1: hmm.. probably
[12:41] <up365> _cerberus_, use this link to find if your webcam is supported or the drivers you may need http://www.qbik.ch/usb/devices/index.php
[12:41] <irunwithscissors> luf: even if it was supported it would probably look terrible im guessing
[12:41] <joshua__> wasn't Herd 5 supposed to be released today?
[12:42] <lufi1> irunwithscissors: yeah, that's what i'm thinking
[12:42] <Slart> lufi1: I think it will be very slow if you even get it working
[12:42] <lufi1> :(
[12:42] <K3nto> !mcreader
[12:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mcreader - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:42] <grndslm> *does a better torrent client exist than ktorrent?*  (I'm starting to wonder if a switch to KDE would make sense considering I'm starting to find that apps like KTorrent, Amarok, and K3b are unbeatable)
[12:42] <_cerberus_> thanks up365, I'll check it out
[12:42] <adam_> is it possible to install a printer to a server install?  I'm going on four hours total attempting here...
[12:42] <iniakulohhahaha> IndyGunFreak : thx but i thing flex more compatible
[12:42] <SpudDogg> jrib:  One last question while kubuntu-desktop installs:  Right now I have a keyboard shortcut set up to open a terminal window (alt+t).  If I'm in KDE, will that open a terminal or konsole or nothing?
[12:42] <iniakulohhahaha> thx for your suggestion
[12:42] <Slart> grndslm: azureus? if you have the memory and resources
[12:42] <toodles> RandomizeR: Look into the dd command.
[12:42] <IndyGunFreak> iniakulohhahaha: no prob, did you search the repos for flex?..
[12:42] <toodles> !dd
[12:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:42] <iniakulohhahaha> btw i have already do apt-get install dnsmasq
[12:42] <jrib> SpudDogg: won't do anything probably, you'll have to configure it in kde
[12:42] <grndslm> Slart:  sorry, no java apps allowed on my machine unless it's the only option
[12:42] <SpudDogg> jrib.  gotcha.  thanks
[12:43] <Slart> grndslm: utorrent through wine? =)
[12:43] <RandomizeR> toodles: i already have the copying part figured out, it's the grub reinstallation i'm worried about
[12:43] <iniakulohhahaha> and i dont want to use it anymore so i type apt-get remove dnsmasq | but the config and other file of dnsmasq still exist on my box, how to remove it ?
[12:43] <grndslm> Slart...hhmm....i have been meaning to try out wine lately
[12:43] <iniakulohhahaha> with clean
[12:43] <IndyGunFreak> iniakulohhahaha: flex is in my repos also (at first i thought you said lex)... so try sudo apt-get install flex
[12:43] <toodles> RandomizeR: With dd you can also copy the boot sector so with a bit of luck you shouldn't need to reinstall grub.
[12:43] <IndyGunFreak> iniakulohhahaha: i'm not real sure to be truthful.
[12:44] <IndyGunFreak> iniakulohhahaha: are you using Ubuntu or Kubuntu?
[12:44] <iniakulohhahaha> ubuntu
[12:44] <h1st0> toodles: dd is disk dump
[12:44] <iniakulohhahaha> dapper
[12:44] <h1st0> toodles: whoops sry.
[12:44] <Jared777u> okay I a still having problems getting grub reinstalled I do the steps but it will not boot into grup at startup
[12:44] <irunwithscissors> sweet mIRC has built in trout-slappage
[12:44] <Jared777u> grub
[12:44] <h1st0> Jared777u: you need to have grub on the mbr of the bootable drive.
[12:44] <IndyGunFreak> iniakulohhahaha: Menu System/Admin/Synaptic package manager.. search for the files you're trying to move, right click, click mark for removal, then remove it.
[12:44] <h1st0> !grub | Jared777u
[12:44] <ubotu> Jared777u: 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
[12:45] <K3nto> !radio
[12:45] <iniakulohhahaha> i use server mode ( console )
[12:45] <Jared777u> Yes i tried both ways on  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows

[12:45] <kski> what do i need to install to make programs? i get a "no rule to make targer" error when i try to make my program
[12:45] <RandomizeR> toodles: i think i'm gonna have to reinstall grub.. i also need to make a /home partition, any idea how to do that??

[12:45] <kski> thank you
[12:46] <grndslm> Slart:  have you personally used utorrent on wine?
[12:46] <iniakulohhahaha> any idea about remove software using apt-get with clean remove without any file of the software will "stay" at my box ?
[12:46] <toodles> RandomizeR: For grub, did you look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[12:46] <Slart> grndslm: nope.. I've used it when I had windows on the box.. and I've seen screenshots and such.. apparently it works
[12:46] <K3nto> o yeah thats another thing
[12:46] <jrib> iniakulohhahaha: sudo apt-get --purge remove PACKAGE_NAME
[12:47] <Slart> grndslm: I use azureus myself
[12:47] <_cerberus_> up356: I found an equivilent device (same vendor/product ID) which claims it is supported and to use the driver I am currently using
[12:47] <K3nto> while im waiting for DL and burning stuff, i was going to configure Wine for WoW
[12:47] <grndslm> Slart:  I'm wondering if i should download the standalone program, or the installation version of utorrent?  the standalone version doesn't quite work
[12:47] <iniakulohhahaha> ty
[12:47] <Jared777u> did the sudo grub, root (hd0,4), setup (hd0,4), quit....  should I do Setup (hd0) instead for a multiboot system?
[12:47] <toodles> RandomizeR: I understood you to have copied the whole hdd. Did you just copy a partition?
[12:47] <cyclops> I have an issues with Samba, how do I configure Samba to allow windows clients to browse the network, I get a message that the network name no longer exists from the windows clients when I try, they are all Windows XP pro, service pack 2 (firewalls off)
[12:47] <cyclops> any help?
[12:47] <Slart> grndslm: I don't think there is much of a difference
[12:47] <K3nto> how do i start wine?
[12:47] <warriorness> Hello all... I'm using the 5.10 LiveCD right now, since my hard drive with my Gentoo install on it died, and it's the only LiveCD I have. Now, I need to copy my data to my other hard drive, but I need ntfs-3g for that, and it's not in the default repos (and no guides say anything about earlier than 6.06). Can anybody help me get fuse and ntfs-3g installed?
[12:48] <h1st0> cyclops: are you prompting them for user and pass?
[12:48] <Slart> grndslm: get the standalone version.. it's only a small exe file.. I think you can run it in install-mode to make it create shortcuts and such
[12:48] <RandomizeR> toodles: i just copied the / partition, and made an new swap partition on the new hd
[12:48] <irunwithscissors> k3nto, type 'wine' at a terminal followed by the program name
[12:48] <up365> _cerberus_,  good I had no luck with my Logitech Quik cam but it worked in SUSE
[12:48] <cyclops> h1st0, not that I know of, but I don't get a prompt in Windows XP for that.
[12:48] <grndslm> K3nto:  as far as I know, you just download wine, and then find the .exe file you want with the terminal....then type wine program.exe
[12:48] <RandomizeR> toodles:  as well as another one supposedly for /home
[12:48] <h1st0> cyclops: well I would just make sure that samba is setup to listen.
[12:48] <K3nto> okay
[12:48] <K3nto> wine PROGRAM
[12:49] <h1st0> cyclops: basicall you need samba and smbfs
[12:49] <grndslm> Slart:  i tried, but all I can see is the window border/frame
[12:49] <ramza3> I have release 6.06, I was debating downloading 6.10, is it much of a big release or will I be fine with 6.06
[12:49] <zithowa> i put in a new hard drive and now GRUB will not boot my system (giving me error 17: partition not found)
[12:49] <Jared777u> okay I got it thanks guys
[12:49] <h1st0> cyclops: let me find you a link on samba set up that explains everythign nice hold up.
[12:49] <Slart> grndslm: what version of wine? I'll give it a try
[12:49] <toodles> RandomizeR: Ah, ok. In that case I'd recommend getting it going step by step. Try to get grub going first.
[12:49] <cyclops> h1st0, most of Samba works, I am able to connect to a share if I know its name
[12:49] <joshua__> ramza3: Edge destroyed my machine on my desktop when I updated
[12:49] <RandomizeR> ok
[12:49] <crdlb> ramza3, 6.06 will be supported for 3 years unlike 6.10
[12:49] <grndslm> Slart:  0.9.30
[12:49] <jrib> ramza3: if you do not want more recent software then dapper should be fine.  No need to download 6.10, you can upgrade if you choose to
[12:50] <toodles> RandomizeR: You can create another partition later and then mount it as /home
[12:50] <up365> _cerberus_, so is your going to work ?
[12:50] <jrib> !upgrade | ramza3
[12:50] <ubotu> ramza3: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[12:50] <h1st0> cyclops: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#Samba_Server
[12:50] <RandomizeR> toodles: i'll reboot into the live cd now and give it a try..
[12:50] <h1st0> cyclops: ahh you just can't browse to the share?
[12:50] <crdlb> ramza3, so you can stick w/ dapper for a while
[12:50] <RandomizeR> toodles: thx :)
[12:50] <K3nto> "wine: could not load L"c:\\windows\\system32\\PROGRAM.exe": Module not found"  whats this mean
[12:50] <cyclops> h1st0, correct
[12:50] <BENN92647> hi everyone
[12:50] <ramza3> crdlb, got ya
[12:50] <up365> *webcam
[12:50] <toodles> RandomizeR: No prob. Good luck!
[12:50] <h1st0> cyclops: perhaps the workgroup settings
[12:50] <K3nto> am i supposed to have an app in place?
[12:50] <h1st0> cyclops: the samba server and xp machines would need to be on the same workgroup
[12:50] <cyclops> h1st0, checked that, both are identical
[12:51] <grndslm> K3nto:  you must use the terminal to find the app (cd & ls commands & such)
[12:51] <_cerberus_> up365: The webcam works in windows so I know it's fine
[12:51] <grndslm> K3nto:  and THEN type wine program.exe
[12:51] <warriorness> Hello all... I'm using the 5.10 LiveCD right now, since my hard drive with my Gentoo install on it died, and it's the only LiveCD I have. Now, I need to copy my data to my other hard drive, but I need ntfs-3g for that, and it's not in the default repos (and no guides say anything about earlier than 6.06). Can anybody help me get fuse and ntfs-3g installed?
[12:51] <BENN92647> well this is really fustrating i have done everything I was told and now i got some thing on my task bar and it says its a luancher but there is no program associated with it, is this wine?
[12:51] <h1st0> cyclops: So if you go to start run and //nameofserver   you get an error?
[12:51] <Slart> grndslm: works here.. on wine 9.31
[12:51] <h1st0> cyclops: but if you do //nameofserver/share  you don't?
[12:51] <BENN92647> hi indy
[12:52] <h1st0> warriorness: You should be able to follow the directions for building ntfs-3g with the version you have.
[12:52] <cyclops> h1st0, hang on, I've only ever done //name/share
[12:52] <up365> _cerberus_,  I got an error msg that /dev/video was already in use, Im pretty sure theres probably some way around that but I havent found it yet
[12:53] <h1st0> cyclops: well \\ or // nameofserver/nameoffolder
[12:53] <youkilldkennedy> How does one mount a .CUE file?
[12:53] <warriorness> h1st0, I could not find any instructions for 5.10... only for 6.06 and 6.10
[12:53] <crdlb> warriorness, can you get any other livecd , the ubuntu install cd isn't really designed for that
[12:53] <grndslm> Slart:  I don't get it...there's no real configuration for wine is there??
[12:53] <BENN92647> lmao
[12:53] <cyclops> h1st0, ok, so that works, but what I need to do is, I want to use the windows network browser facility to browse all the servers on the network.
[12:53] <Slart> youkilldkennedy: you don't.. you make it into an iso using bchunk
[12:53] <h1st0> warriorness: yeah just follow the instructions for 6.06 unless it has you adding repos.
[12:53] <mikemacd> can someone help me with "installing xgl in feisty"
[12:53] <Slart> grndslm: there's winecfg.. but that's about it
[12:53] <warriorness> crdlb, I'd rather not - I'm trying to avoid burning another CD by doing this
[12:53] <rp3> so if I plug in a joy stick it will just work with ubuntu?
[12:53] <warriorness> h1st0, it tells me to add repos
[12:53] <BENN92647> i got wine installed and its nowhere to be found, seems that it can be a big hassle to get going
[12:53] <Slart> grndslm: but try updating.. 0.9.30 was a bit dodgy
[12:53] <h1st0> cyclops: yeah thats just strange that browsing isn't working. But direct specifying is.
[12:54] <The_PHP_Jedi> hey, can anyone help me with reinstalling GRUB?
[12:54] <_cerberus_> up365: no error messages, they went away when I installed the driver, viewers can connect to the camera (im assuming they can because there are no errors) but just display a blank grey screen
[12:54] <The_PHP_Jedi> It cannot find (hd0,4)...
[12:54] <toodles> BENN92647: Winde is not a graphical application.
[12:54] <The_PHP_Jedi> (from Live CD)
[12:54] <h1st0> warriorness: hrm...
[12:54] <BENN92647> ahhh
[12:54] <toodles> BENN92647: I meant wine. Sorry.
[12:54] <cyclops> h1st0, I thought so too
[12:54] <BENN92647> ok so how do i launch it
[12:54] <h1st0> warriorness: the other option is to make a fat32 partition and transfer the data there
[12:54] <The_PHP_Jedi> BENN92647: : command line.. wine app.exe
[12:54] <h1st0> cyclops: is the server firewalled?
[12:55] <The_PHP_Jedi> wine app.exe -- after you cd to the directory where the windows exe is
[12:55] <crdlb> warriorness, you're going to have trouble finding ntfs-3g for breezy
[12:55] <BENN92647> cool now do i need the CD that i want to install in ther eat the time?
[12:55] <warriorness> h1st0, that's the other thing I'm trying to avoid doing: repartitioning
[12:55] <warriorness> crdlb, all right, I'll try a different LiveCD
[12:55] <warriorness> thanks for the help
[12:55] <youkilldkennedy> BENN92647: in terminal type winefile for easy browsing.
[12:55] <h1st0> cyclops: Yeah I don't know what controls browsing I know windows blows at network browsing.  You may have to just restart the windows machine and check again.  If not perhaps ask in #samba
[12:55] <h1st0> warriorness: It would be difficult to install ntfs-3g on 5.xx  If you need instructions to do os.
[12:56] <cyclops> h1st0, thanks
[12:56] <BENN92647> wine created without open gl support why is that

[12:56] <h1st0> BENN92647: wine works with opengl
[12:57] <h1st0> Hummin: fiesty support is in #ubuntu+1
[12:57] <_cerberus_> up365, did you look for the camera name or for the product/vendor IDs?
[12:57] <The_PHP_Jedi> I need GRUB help.... how do you reinstall GRUB if it can't find (hd0,4), (hd0,5), etc.. and it says /dev/hda is not a BIOS device or something
[12:57] <zeroflox> it seems the module isnt loaded in linux-restricted or something
[12:57] <zeroflox> anyone care to help plz

[12:57] <Taime1> i right clicked a link for a stream and saved it, right clicked the pls file, told it that i want to use vlc to play those files, and when i click on a link, it STILL opens it with my mplayer plugin...is there another way to get firefox to open these streams with the player of my choice?
[12:57] <h1st0> zeroflox: what are you trying to do?
[12:57] <crdlb> Taime1, look inside the pls file and get the url
[12:57] <BENN92647> it says the GLLib was not found:No libGL on this box
[12:57] <crdlb> then pass that to vlc
[12:58] <h1st0> Taime1: well you have plugins for firefox that control playing in windows
[12:58] <zeroflox> hlst0 im trying to get my ati drivers to work
[12:58] <zeroflox> but something someone said that it had something to do with linux-restricted stuff and he left..
[12:58] <Taime1> it used to open streams with an external player.
[12:58] <h1st0> Taime1: about:plugins will show you installed plugins for firefox.
[12:58] <zeroflox> h1st0, he took a look at my Xorg.0.log or something and he said that
[12:58] <h1st0> zeroflox: did you follow the instructions in the wiki?
[12:59] <zeroflox> yes
[12:59] <up365> _cerberus_, devices-webcam-vendor name - product name
[12:59] <zeroflox> 3 persons tried to help me now
[12:59] <zeroflox> still nothing
[12:59] <h1st0> zeroflox: okay well if you need linux-restricted modules try sudo aptitude install  linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`
[12:59] <BENN92647> hlst0 what does "No libGL on this box" mean?
[12:59] <zeroflox> how do i know if i allready have them?
[12:59] <h1st0> BENN92647: What are you trying to do?
[12:59] <h1st0> zeroflox: dpkg -l | grep linux-restricted
[12:59] <zeroflox> and he also said 1 more.. common-restricted..  or something
[12:59] <BENN92647> configure wine
[01:00] <h1st0> BENN92647: For what an opengl app?
[01:00] <h1st0> BENN92647: What video card od you have?
[01:00] <BENN92647> i need it to have directX9.0a and openGL support
[01:00] <h1st0> BENN92647: ahh well directx9 in wine isn't going to happen.
[01:00] <BENN92647> 7600 GS Nvidia
[01:00] <h1st0> BENN92647: do you have the nvidia-glx drivers installed?
[01:00] <irunwithscissors> i've got guild wars running on 6.1
[01:00] <_cerberus_> up365 if you type 'cat /proc/bus/usb/devices' with the webcam plugged in it should bring un a lot of info on the webcam including the product and and vendor ID, use those in the search (one at a time)

[01:01] <h1st0> BENN92647: well if you are trying to get a specific app to work with wine you may want to check out their appdb its at appdb.winehq.com
[01:01] <gh> can someone help?

[01:02] <BENN92647> it says i can play WoW on it
[01:02] <h1st0> zeroflox: okay do you have linux-restricted-modules installed for your current kernel?
[01:02] <up365> _cerberus_, thanks I'll try that
[01:02] <h1st0> BENN92647: You can there are howtos on the appdb if you just go there.

[01:02] <K3nto> i installed it.
[01:02] <K3nto> i thinkl

[01:03] <zeroflox> h1st0, want to take a look at my Xorg log file? maybe you can find it..
[01:03] <h1st0> K3nto: go to appdb.winehq.com

[01:03] <h1st0> zeroflox: sure.
[01:03] <mikemacd> can someone help me with "installing xgl in feisty"
[01:03] <gh> hello everyone, I am running into a slight issue with Ubuntu. I have two nic cards,both statically assigned, one of them has a 192. IP the other has a 137.x.x. ip, both hit different routers. When i have both enabled, i can no longer go online..
[01:03] <h1st0> zeroflox: did you post it to pastebin?
[01:03] <zeroflox> let me put it in pastebin
[01:03] <jrib> mikemacd: #ubuntu+1 for feisty help
[01:03] <nero_> anyone here good with autofs/nfs shares?  I am trying to get rw access to my userspace account on my new Ubuntu box, when connected via autofs to an NFS share on the network.
[01:03] <K3nto> yeah but cedega requires money
[01:03] <K3nto> nuff said
[01:03] <mikemacd> thank you jrib!
[01:03] <h1st0> K3nto: you don't need cedega
[01:04] <aoupi> what command can I use to see what version of a package I have installed?
[01:04] <nero_> the nfs share is correctly configured to allow rw access, and in my ubuntu box auto.misc file, I have set the rw flag, but I still get a "permission denied" when I try to write to the disk.
[01:04] <h1st0> mikemacd: #ubuntu-effects is xgl support
[01:04] <up365> _cerberus_, sure would like to work it Ubuntu, seeing how it works in SUSE with no problem
[01:04] <h1st0> aoupi: dpkg -l | grep <packagename>

[01:06] <zeroflox> h1st0, something on line 713 i guess
[01:06] <richj23> hi
[01:06] <BENN92647> i think you have to mount the external drive first
[01:06] <bjames> hi all - I have a quick C++ question
[01:06] <adam_> !print
[01:06] <ubotu> Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[01:06] <richj23> i have quite a major prob, can anyone help??
[01:06] <Slart> BENN92647: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=6861
[01:07] <h1st0> zeroflox: what are the results of uname -r in a terminal
[01:07] <crdlb> adam_, which lpd you could "cat file| lpr " but I don't think that works w/ cups
[01:07] <zeroflox> 2.6.17-11-generic
[01:07] <marx2k> !answer
[01:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about answer - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:07] <richj23> i cannot boot into ubuntu, nor recovery mode
[01:07] <bjames> I'm null'ing pointers in a constructor and I keep getting the error "'null' was not declared in this scope" - how can this be?  I thought null was a primitive type in C++?
[01:07] <h1st0> zeroflox: what about dpkg -l | grep linux-restricted  does that show one that matches 2.6.17-11-generic
[01:07] <toodles> bjames: www.cprogramming.com is a better place to ask. Unless it's ubuntu specific.
[01:07] <RandomDestructn> richj23, what happens?
[01:07] <adam_> crdlb: Ahh, yeah, I'm using cups...
[01:07] <kash> so how do i start setup from the disc cmd line?
[01:07] <BENN92647> you rule!
[01:08] <bjames> toodles: is that a forum or IRC?
[01:08] <zeroflox> a few ill pastebin them ok h1st0
[01:08] <jrib> bjames: ##c++  may be more appropriate on irc
[01:08] <BENN92647> thanks slart
[01:08] <eric__> anyone have any experience with fglrx?
[01:08] <K3nto> okay, im at http://appdb.winehq.com/appview.php?iVersionId=6482
[01:08] <The_Jack_of_Club> hey i bought a new mouse and it has two buttons on the side and youre supposed to be able to set them in windows and in osx but i dont know how to set them in linux... the buttons dont do anything when i press them
[01:08] <h1st0> zeroflox: okay
[01:08] <Slart> BENN92647: you're welcome
[01:08] <richj23> this is the last line before it hangs: drivers/usb/input/hid-core.c:v2.6:USB HID Core driver
[01:08] <toodles> bjames: http://www.cprogramming.com/board.html is their forum, but the replies are usually fast
[01:08] <h1st0> zeroflox: unfortunately I have to go eat I will be back ina little bit.
[01:08] <BENN92647> now if you can do a step by step to help me get it installed and running i'd be most grateful
[01:08] <richj23> im using -11 and -10 kernel versions
[01:08] <eric__> it seems that hardware acceleration is working, but things are getting rendered wrong
[01:08] <richj23> tried both
[01:08] <zeroflox> h1st0, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8150/
[01:08] <marx2k> The_Jack_of_Club, what do those 2 buttons do in other OS's?
[01:08] <RandomDestructn> out of my expertise
[01:08] <eric__> they get shifted to the left
[01:09] <The_Jack_of_Club> nothing until you set them with the software provided
[01:09] <BENN92647> im totally intimidated by the process
[01:09] <marx2k> ah
[01:09] <The_Jack_of_Club> its a kensington ci60
[01:09] <IndyGunFreak> BENN92647: intimidated by what?

[01:11] <Nukez> also when I start up the status screen is black and white... no color at all
[01:12] <toodles> Taime1: What happens when you click on a plc file?
[01:12] <RandomDestructn> pmcnett, if you move your home dir over, then reinstall, most stuff should work I'd think

[01:19] <Jake333> random destruction
[01:19] <irunwithscissors> see if you see anything related to privledges.
[01:19] <con-man> 
[01:19] <K3nto> im running into too many brick wall
[01:19] <irunwithscissors> #away
[01:19] <Taime1> what would have changed that would cause firefox to stop opening streams in an external player, and START opening them with embedded mplayer plugin?...poop...
[01:19] <BENN92647> anyone know what the diamond box with a question mark inside it is on my taskbar?
[01:19] <K3nto> can somebody help me with prepping wine for WoW?
[01:19] <ubm> TheVault you can use ndis wrapper and use the windows driver if your broadcom card isnt supported on linux yet
[01:19] <grndslm> Slart:  hah...i'm not sure if it was the new version of wine...but i just realized that uTorrent startes minimized, that's why i couldn't see it!!  wine's pretty sweet
[01:19] <eck> BENN92647: i think that means the icon is missing
[01:19] <Discovery> HEy does anyone know how to clean up the grub boot? i have like 8 entrys and i only want the ubuntu and the ubuntu recovery mode how can i remove them
[01:20] <BENN92647> its a luancher with no progarm
[01:20] <Slart> grndslm: hehe.. nice.. so.. you have a small, nice torrent client =)
[01:20] <ScottLij> Where can I find step by step instructions on how to get DVD playback in Ubuntu 6.10?
[01:20] <ConstyXIV> Discovery: sudo geit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:20] <BENN92647> how do i fix it
[01:20] <TheVault> ubm: thats why I am asking. Iv read everything under the sun on how to use the thing. Iv followed all instructions and there is always something that goes wrong
[01:20] <zeroflox> h1st0, you there mate..
[01:20] <eck> BENN92647: right click it and edit the properties
[01:20] <ConstyXIV> Discovery: comment out the unwanted entries
[01:20] <TheVault> ubm: from a fresh install to jumping right into instructions, there is always something that goes wrong
[01:20] <eck> Discovery: if you have a lot of old kernels, you might just want to remove them
[01:20] <Discovery> ConstyXIV: sudo geit /boot/grub/menu.lst doent work is it missspelled
[01:21] <ubm> TheVault: ok no problem what kind of a card do you have sory i just walked in and woke up about 10 minutes ago :)
[01:21] <BENN92647> says its an app but not what app
[01:21] <toodles> Taime1: If only I could think of something. I know it's not the right way of going about it, but you could try uninstalling the mplayer plugin and restarting firefox.
[01:21] <Discovery> eck: how?
[01:21] <eck> BENN92647: that is listed in the command
[01:21] <Tidus> Discovery, it might be /boot/grub/grub.conf
[01:21] <ubm> TheVault bcmxX?
[01:21] <marx2k> Discovery,  gksudo gedit etc etc
[01:21] <eck> Discovery: aptitude search linux-image | grep ^i
[01:21] <Taime1> i guess i could, i was kinda thinking along those lines anyways
[01:21] <ConstyXIV> Discovery: gedit
[01:21] <marx2k> Discovery,  gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.list
[01:21] <BENN92647> nothing there
[01:21] <dooglus> Discovery: it's in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:21] <eck> taht will show you what you have
[01:21] <eck> then you can apt-get remove the old ones you don't need
[01:21] <toodles> Taime1: Then click on a pls file, and when it asks whether to download or open it, you tell it to open it with xmms, and to always do that. Then reinstall the mplayerplugin.
[01:21] <BENN92647> its all blank
[01:22] <TheVault> ubm: lol its alright. I have a Broadcom 43xx wireless network card. My laptop is a Dell Inspiron E1405 & I am using Windows right now cause I just unistalled Ubuntu cause of Frustrations(not something I guess linux users wanna hear lol)
[01:22] <grndslm> Slart:  I'll prolly end up sticking with ktorrent...but it's nice that i know wine works!  if i wanted to launch utorrent, the launch command would be "wine /opt/utorrent.exe"???
[01:22] <Taime1> i bet that'd work man
[01:22] <BENN92647> i think its wine LOL
[01:22] <Taime1> ill give it a shot
[01:22] <eck> BENN92647: then you can probably safely remove it
[01:22] <Discovery> eck: now what?
[01:22] <BENN92647> done
[01:22] <marx2k> Azureus > *
[01:22] <ubm> IndyGunFreak shoot me a p/m with your yahoo id
[01:22] <Taime1> its such a pety problem, more of an annoyance... so if this doesnt work, ill give up
[01:22] <BENN92647> ok to launch wine its $ wineapp.exe?
[01:22] <marx2k> Discovery, go to the bottom of the file and comment out what you dont want
[01:22] <toodles> Taime1: No idea. But it's the only thing I can't think of that might. Like I said, it doesn't make sense. Sounds like something has a bug. *shrug*
[01:22] <eck> Discovery: look at which ones are installed and you don't need, then apt-get remove those packages
[01:23] <Slart> grndslm: yup. that sounds right
[01:23] <eck> that will automatically remove them from the grub menu too
[01:23] <shiggity> BENN92647: you have to cd to the directory first
[01:23] <BENN92647> on how
[01:23] <lameriuga> please help, when i`m printing more than one page is not printing text on the page
[01:23] <BENN92647> ok how please
[01:23] <shiggity> you know how you can map /home to a separate partition at install time? well is there a way to do that without reinstalling?
[01:23] <grndslm> so, nobody here'd know where to find pre-built xp machines for vmware, eh?
[01:23] <zeroflox> is there a checkdisk for ubuntu?
[01:23] <toodles> Taime1: Yeah, but annoyances are what make using computers fustrating. I figure there's enough in life to cause hassel without little things like that.
[01:23] <eck> grndslm: i doubt that would be legal
[01:23] <BENN92647> every website has a diffrent way to do it LOL
[01:23] <zeroflox> to scan my hdd for errors/bad sectors?
[01:23] <marx2k> grndslm, wouldnt that be a copyright issue
[01:23] <Taime1> hehe
[01:23] <Slart> eck: the pulseaudio tools (the flashy ones) aren't available for edgy.. they require libc6 2.5, edgy only has 2.4.. so I'll have to wait for the feisty fawn I guess
[01:24] <crdlb> zeroflox, fsck
[01:24] <At0mic_PC> Anyone know anything about audacity?
[01:24] <BENN92647> open source= 100 ways to do one thing
[01:24] <The_PHP_Jedi> fsdisk or something
[01:24] <shiggity> At0mic_PC: it's awesome
[01:24] <At0mic_PC> I want to loop a song.
[01:24] <grndslm> eck marx2k:  i figured it would, but i heard of someone downloading pre-built machines...maybe he was mistaken
[01:24] <TheVault> ubm: Do you know of any detailed tutorials that that tell you what to do with a screenshot of each step? Maybe this is something that would greatly help me?
[01:24] <BENN92647> fstab
[01:24] <At0mic_PC> shiggity: Yes it is!
[01:24] <BENN92647> is linuxs fdisk
[01:24] <ubm> TheVault well unfortunately i here this just about every day in this channel and i understand your frustration but with that attitude something as trivial as a driver for unsupported hardware will only cause you issues later on... trust me i speak from experience now lets get your card working
[01:24] <marx2k> grndslm *shrug* check torrent sites :)
[01:24] <eck> Slart: i am running feisty right now, so i guess i didn't run into that. can you not compile an older one though?
[01:24] <zeroflox> crdlb, how can i unmount my other windows part
[01:24] <zeroflox> or is that ok?
[01:24] <ubm> TheVault boot into live cd
[01:24] <At0mic_PC> shiggity: I'm making a ringtone and want it to loop. Need to see if it sounds ok looped.
[01:24] <shiggity> At0mic_PC: I think there's a button on the gui somewhere that does loop
[01:24] <TheVault> You mean I can get wireless working using the LIVE CD?
[01:25] <freezey> irunwithscissors, after right clicking on it i can't change the permisions because it says its a read-only-disk
[01:25] <ubm> TheVault you are on a notebook i assume
[01:25] <crdlb> zeroflox, "umount /mnt/windows" ?
[01:25] <TheVault> Yeah I am
[01:25] <crdlb> is that what you mean?
[01:25] <ubm> The Vault what is the model
[01:25] <BENN92647> ok shiggity how do I CD wine, when you get done with the other guy please...thank you
[01:25] <zeroflox> umount: /dev/hdc5 aankoppeling komt niet overeen met fstab
[01:25] <Slart> eck: there 5 or 6 different apps.. I got some packages from the feisty fawn.. but those wanted libc6 2.5.. I didn't try compiling them myself.. I'm using pulseaudio now.. without the flashy stuff. I still have to pactl console tool to chnage stuff
[01:25] <TheVault> ubm: Its a Dell Inspiron E1405 Laptop. Broadcom 4311
[01:25] <crdlb> zeroflox, do you want to scan a windows partition?
[01:25] <shiggity> benn92647: what are you trying to run with wine?
[01:25] <asac> anyone has problems with latest dapper firefox accessing https sites here?
[01:26] <zeroflox> i want to check all partitions
[01:26] <zeroflox> whole hdd
[01:26] <BENN92647> Guild Wars
[01:26] <BENN92647> its a loooong process but first i need to know i got wine going
[01:26] <crdlb> zeroflox, you have to check them separately afaik and there is no fsck.ntfs
[01:26] <ubm> TheVault give me a few minutes im looking at the chipset for the wireless card your using which is integrated with the notebook correct?
[01:26] <lameriuga> please help, when i`m printing more than one page is not printing text on the page, or he stops
[01:26] <shiggity> BENN92647: ok the first thing to do is find where the file you want to run is
[01:26] <BENN92647> its installed but nothing shows it my apps task bar rfor it
[01:26] <cpk1> BENN92647: did you install wine? and run winecfg and set your cdrom drive to be cdrom and not auto or anything else?
[01:26] <TheVault> ubm: Correct
[01:27] <crdlb> zeroflox, at least on my system
[01:27] <BENN92647> no cpk1
[01:27] <TheVault> ubm: Built already inside
[01:27] <shiggity> BENN92647: is it probably somewhere in ~/.wine
[01:27] <TheVault> ubm: But what your telling me is that, I can get wireless working just using the LIVE CD?
[01:27] <ubm> TheVault yes you can
[01:27] <cpk1> BENN92647: so you havent installed guild wars yet?
[01:27] <BENN92647> WOOO! thanks cpk1 (and shiggity) got wine up
[01:28] <eck> Slart: well if you want to compile them, its pretty simple, you just need the gnome C++ bindings
[01:28] <BENN92647> now what do i do?
[01:28] <ubm> TheVault open your terminal and use this command 'sudo xterm'
[01:28] <TheVault> ubm: HOLY SH**. Iv been wanting to this forever without installing Ubuntu until I got everything just right
[01:28] <Slart> eck: I'll save it for some day when I'm really bored =)
[01:28] <BENN92647> no i havent installed yet
[01:28] <shiggity> BENN92647: just a sec
[01:28] <cpk1> BENN92647: you pretty much just need to set your cdrom drive to be a cdrom drive
[01:28] <TheVault> ubm: Lemme boot into Ubuntu real quick
[01:28] <seravitae> Hi there, a program is asking me to fix my /etc/hosts file to contain <ip> <FQHN> <HN>. i have put 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain and the name of my pc in there, but it still errors. what do i need to set it to?
[01:28] <eck> lol
[01:28] <BENN92647> im in drives
[01:28] <eck> they are pretty nifty
[01:29] <asac> who else has problems with dapper firefox connecting to some https:// sites?
[01:29] <ubm> TheVault you will need to do this again after we install but its simple and ill wait around for you to come back in after the installation
[01:29] <quaal> who the hell is indygunfrak
[01:29] <quaal> indygunfreak
[01:29] <quaal> and why is he trying to send me files
[01:29] <Guest_686> need help editing my /etc/modprobe.b/bad_list so that i can connect to the internet can anyone help me?
[01:29] <Nukez> sorry about that...
[01:29] <BENN92647> shows C:         ../drive_c and Z:         /
[01:29] <nater_> join #microsoft
[01:29] <crdlb> quaal, it was an accident apparently
[01:29] <quaal> k
[01:29] <BENN92647> NO! dont join the evil empire LOL
[01:29] <Nukez> anyways... every time I have to restart the screen just goes blank like xserver crashes
[01:29] <The_PHP_Jedi> asac: what exactly is the problem?
[01:29] <eck> there was a Gnome SoC project to dynamically change the volume of different applications based on different rules (e.g. mute your audio player when the movie you are watching has focus), it will be interesting to see how that comes along once pulseaudio officially replaces esd
[01:30] <K3nt> is there a gui for the biit menu?
[01:30] <BENN92647> stay away fro mthe darkside
[01:30] <asac> The_PHP_Jedi: do you see https connection problems
[01:30] <K3nt> boot*
[01:30] <The_PHP_Jedi> no
[01:30] <asac> we need someone to test this
[01:30] <The_PHP_Jedi> what exactly is the problem/error?
[01:30] <asac> in #ubuntu-bugs
[01:30] <asac> there is a regression
[01:30] <asac> but we want to verify
[01:30] <BENN92647> ok cpk1 how do i map Wine to the cdrom
[01:30] <asac> but cannot reproduce
[01:30] <Slart> BENN92647: in winecfg.. drives or something
[01:30] <goodkiwiboy>           xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxcc
[01:30] <eck> there was also a feisty goal to replace esd with pulseaudio, i don't think that fell through though :-/
[01:31] <cpk1> BENN92647: just pick a drive and tell it to use /media/cdrom0 as the cd
[01:31] <BENN92647> ok got it, do i need to remove the other 2
[01:31] <Slart> BENN92647: nope
[01:31] <cpk1> no keep the other entries
[01:31] <cpk1> BENN92647: make sure the cdrom entry says its a cdrom
[01:31] <BENN92647> i got like 5 now
[01:31] <cpk1> BENN92647: click "show advanced" and the type should say cdrom for it
[01:32] <shiggity> BENN9264: lol how did you get five?
[01:32] <Nukez> does anyone know waht causes the screen to be black and white on startup?
[01:32] <BENN92647> crap it locked up
[01:32] <shiggity> nukez: amd64 version of ubuntu does that
[01:32] <BENN92647> i hit auto deteck
[01:32] <shiggity> nukez: at least I think that's why mine is black and white
[01:32] <gili> i have a question about the restore GRUB feature that 5.10 live cd had
[01:32] <BENN92647> auto detect
[01:33] <BENN92647> can i close it and reopen it?
[01:33] <shiggity> BENN92647: ooh, undo undo
[01:33] <cpk1> autodetect is fine
[01:33] <Nukez> shiggity: does yours also crash when you try to logoff or shut down?
[01:33] <BENN92647> how do i undo
[01:33] <shiggity> BENN92647: autodetect is broken, the peeps on #winehq told me
[01:33] <Guest_686> is there anyone who can help me connect my ubuntu connect to the internet?
[01:33] <cpk1> BENN92647: find wherever /media/cdrom0 is in that list
[01:33] <BENN92647> k
[01:33] <eck> Guest_686: does it not do so automatically?
[01:33] <gili> is there an automated restore GRUB  feature with the 6.10 live cd?
[01:33] <shiggity> nukez: no mine doesn't do that ..
[01:33] <Guest_686> no
[01:33] <eck> Guest_686: do you have dhcp?
[01:33] <Guest_686> i tried
[01:33] <The_PHP_Jedi> gili: I need to restore GRUB also, hehe
[01:33] <ubm> TheVault are you there?
[01:33] <Guest_686> ummm
[01:34] <BENN92647> crap its locked

[01:34] <Guest_686> connceted to internet
[01:34] <cpk1> locked?
[01:34] <BENN92647> should i force quit and go back in?
[01:34] <cpk1> whats locked?
[01:34] <eck> Guest_686: is the internet automatically configured in vista, or did you have to do a static ip configuration?
[01:34] <cpk1> how?
[01:34] <cpk1> why?
[01:34] <BENN92647> wine app
[01:34] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi: an answer to what?
[01:34] <Guest_686> auto
[01:34] <shiggity> nukez: does it happen when you shutdown from the terminal, with this command "sudo shutdown -h now" ?
[01:34] <BENN92647> wine config locked on me
[01:34] <The_PHP_Jedi> to reinstalling GRUB on Ubuntu Live CD
[01:34] <eck> Guest_686: try something like this at the command line: sudo dhclient eth0
[01:34] <cpk1> if you have to then sure kill it
[01:35] <Guest_686> i tried to edit /etc/modprobe.d/bad_list
[01:35] <Nukez> shiggity: dont know... let me try

[01:36] <cpk1> winecfg i mean
[01:36] <eck> Guest_686: you need to run it with sudo in front
[01:36] <Jake333> i unmounted accidentally
[01:36] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi: did you fdisk -l it
[01:36] <Guest_686> ok

[01:37] <At0mic_PC> shiggity: Found it. Wasn't exactly what I was looking for but it worked well enough. :) thanks
[01:37] <Guest_686> ok

[01:37] <shiggity> At0mic_PC: glad it worked! how did you do it?
[01:37] <The_PHP_Jedi> I do have my root partition mounted
[01:37] <Guest_686> to connect through
[01:37] <eck> if it works you'll get an IP address and should be able to ping out
[01:37] <ubm> TheVault i have copied some commands and put them on pastebin for you to use as a guide but first thing we need todo is enable universal repositories.
[01:37] <The_PHP_Jedi> oh gili: it does return
[01:37] <Guest_686> was my problem that i didnt have sudo in front?
[01:37] <lee_> how do i use the cube with compiz?
[01:37] <The_PHP_Jedi> srry, I tried w/ out sudo
[01:37] <The_PHP_Jedi> :P
[01:37] <TheVault> Alright, So you want me to enable them?
[01:37] <shiggity> BENN92647: did you save your changes in winecfg, or did it crash before that?
[01:37] <timfrost> Jake333: it should automount if you unplug it, then plug it back in.
[01:38] <Jake333> it doesnt detect it
[01:38] <ubm> TheVualt goto System --> Administration --> Software Sources
[01:38] <Arkaitz> Hey
[01:38] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi: you need to mount the root and then get grub installed on boot HDA
[01:38] <BENN92647> i think i fried my wine install, how do i bring the config screen bacnk please
[01:38] <eck> yes, you need to be sudo to edit the network settings
[01:38] <Arkaitz> whats the command to reboot the X server?
[01:38] <gili> i have done all that already
[01:38] <Guest_686> i think i have it now then thanks eck
[01:38] <TheVault> Alrighty, now what
[01:38] <shiggity> BENN92647: ok, use the command "winecfg"
[01:38] <eck> err, you need to be root, i.e. you need to use sudo in front of the command
[01:38] <ubm> TheVault enable all of them
[01:38] <The_PHP_Jedi> huh gili?
[01:38] <TheVault> Alright
[01:38] <The_PHP_Jedi> root is mounted

[01:40] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi: what is your boot hda
[01:40] <jimmygoon> So is ATI ever going to release drivers that will support Beryl/Compiz or not?
[01:40] <sredojevics> Hi, I have found two bug duplicates in launchpad. Those are #62500 and #75399 . Can someone with enough permissins mark them as duplicates?
[01:40] <shiggity> Nukez: weird, i don't know what's causing that then
[01:40] <gili> that is where the grub-install goes
[01:40] <TheVault> ubm: finished updating
[01:40] <The_PHP_Jedi>  /dev/sda7
[01:40] <BENN92647> cpk1 its not showing up :(
[01:40] <shiggity> Nukez: what kind of hardware are you using?
[01:40] <eck> jimmygoon: i think they are just going to take their sweet time
[01:40] <tonyyarusso> jimmygoon: Compiz kinda works with the free driver for me.

[01:41] <trazarco> hi i have problems with my video card geforce fx 5200.. when i use the 3d my computer is freezing.. in the beging i think that was the driver, then i suspect that was the temperature, but i put a ventilator and i still have the same problem
[01:41] <ubm> TheVault do you have an instant messenger uid?
[01:41] <BENN92647> winecfg
[01:41] <Arkaitz> it fails when restarting the Gnome display manager
[01:41] <eck> it is an issue of the devs at ati/nvidia not keeping up with the changes in X11
[01:41] <Arkaitz> or thats hat it says
[01:41] <jimmygoon> thats too bad...
[01:41] <shiggity> cpk1, BENN92647, maybe he should restart gnome and then start again fresh?
[01:41] <TheVault> Whats that?
[01:41] <edgy_user> Can anyone help me with my network problem?
[01:41] <TheVault> I am using Gaim
[01:41] <ubm> you should have gaim installed by default
[01:41] <trazarco> hi i have problems with my video card geforce fx 5200.. when i use the 3d my computer is freezing.. in the beging i think that was the driver, then i suspect that was the temperature, but i put a ventilator and i still have the same problem

[01:41] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi: so you have done the grub-install /dev/sda7

[01:41] <eck> Arkaitz: the problem should be logged in /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[01:41] <TheVault> Ubm: yeah, I am using Gaim
[01:41] <ubm> TheVault do you have yahoo, msn, aim etc?

[01:41] <Nukez> shiggity: amd 64 3400 x800 pro...
[01:41] <eck> there should be some lines with EE indicated errors
[01:41] <cpk1> BENN92647: do 'ps aux' and check and make sure there arent any wine procs running
[01:41] <trazarco> hi i have problems with my video card geforce fx 5200.. when i use the 3d my computer is freezing.. in the beging i think that was the driver, then i suspect that was the temperature, but i put a ventilator and i still have the same problem
[01:41] <edgy_user> Anuone?

[01:42] <javiolo> tonyyarusso thanks
[01:42] <ubm> whats your msn user name?
[01:42] <eck> edgy_user: what is the problem?
[01:42] <Arkaitz> I cant install Ubuntu 6.10 on my laptop, I dont know why :'( I got an X Server error
[01:42] <TheVault> ubm: kylewitt@gmail.com
[01:42] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi: not sure man...i have done that process a couple of times today after my vista install and it worked
[01:42] <Arkaitz> Failed to start the X server (your graphical interface). It is likely that it is not set up correctly. Would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the problem?
[01:42] <gili> well after messing around a bit
[01:42] <Arkaitz> that error
[01:42] <eck> Arkaitz: look at the log
[01:43] <shiggity> nukez: lol no problem there : ). if you have patience, the only think I can suggest is try reinstalling ubuntu, but use the i386 version, it's more user friendly and supported than 64 at this point.
[01:43] <inazad> How to access at \\COMPUTER in console mode ?
[01:43] <BENN92647> nope its not running
[01:43] <nexous> Hi
[01:43] <shiggity> Nukez: you might just have a bad install
[01:43] <gili> ask timfrost he seems to know
[01:43] <timfrost> The_PHP_Jedi: have you got the root of your hard disk mounted?
[01:43] <The_PHP_Jedi> yes timfrost
[01:43] <The_PHP_Jedi> that would be /dev/sda7
[01:43] <BENN92647> what is the command line to restart gnome?
[01:43] <eck> inazad:rephrase your question
[01:44] <Arkaitz> BENN92647 they just told it
[01:44] <Arkaitz> sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[01:44] <BENN92647> oh the ps aux?
[01:44] <Nukez> shiggity, ok... Ubuntu really dosent seem to want to work with my hardware (the graphical installer dosent work at all)
[01:44] <BENN92647> got it sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[01:44] <BENN92647> right?
[01:44] <eck> Nukez: you can use the alternate installer
[01:45] <The_PHP_Jedi> Nukez: you mean the Live CD?
[01:45] <The_PHP_Jedi> timfrost: whenever... a response is being awaited..
[01:45] <Nukez> no, just the regular install
[01:45] <inazad> eck, I want to access to Window's Network (Shared Folders) in console mode.
[01:45] <timfrost> The_PHP_Jedi: What was the actual grub install command you used?
[01:45] <eck> inazad: I think you can see the mount point if you run 'mount' by itself
[01:45] <shiggity> nukez: you could try seeing if DSL linux works on your computer, just to test
[01:45] <The_PHP_Jedi> That command
[01:45] <The_PHP_Jedi> sudo grub-install /dev/sda7
[01:45] <The_PHP_Jedi> Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.
[01:46] <Arkaitz> eck VBESetVBEMode= failed
[01:46] <Arkaitz> Set VBE Mode failed!
[01:46] <The_PHP_Jedi> I've tried going into 'grub' and 'root (hd0,4)', but that also fails
[01:46] <inazad> eck, smbmount or mount (in a console ?)  ?
[01:46] <Arkaitz> Fatal server error
[01:46] <eck> Arkaitz: um, i think it is a driver issue. you can take out the vbe module in your xorg.conf, but i am not sure if it is required
[01:46] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi: are you sure sda7 is your boot partition
[01:46] <eck> inazad: just mount
[01:46] <The_PHP_Jedi> yes, positive
[01:46] <K3nto> could somebody help me with setting up wow on ubuntu
[01:46] <Arkaitz> I will try it
[01:47] <The_PHP_Jedi> well, I need to set it as my boot partition
[01:47] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi: what do you have booting now at startup
[01:47] <K3nto> the online guides are annoying and they dont help me
[01:47] <The_PHP_Jedi> nothing, GRUB doesnt' load
[01:47] <K3nto> sry
[01:47] <timfrost> The_PHP_Jedi: add '--root=<mount point>' where <mount point> is the directory that you mounted the hard disk root to
[01:47] <inazad> eck, its shows me nothing about samba ...
[01:47] <The_PHP_Jedi> well, ti does load
[01:47] <The_PHP_Jedi> but errors 15
[01:47] <eck> inazad: were you accessing samba through gnome?
[01:47] <Nukez> shiggity: will do...
[01:47] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi: what do you mean.....you see grub? or not?
[01:48] <The_PHP_Jedi> I see grub
[01:48] <The_PHP_Jedi> it returns error 15
[01:48] <Arkaitz> eck and If I try any other driver I will keep gettin the error?
[01:48] <The_PHP_Jedi> I'm trying your suggestion, timfrost
[01:48] <The_PHP_Jedi> ah, nvm
[01:49] <The_PHP_Jedi> that worked
[01:49] <The_PHP_Jedi> thx a lot timfrost :)
[01:49] <inazad> eck, hmm.. I'm on XFCE but I think yts by Shortcuts -> Network  (network:///)
[01:49] <K3nto> anybody help me with setting up WoW for wine?
[01:49] <K3nto> pleas
[01:50] <r4nge> whats the proper syntax for this...   if $q==NULL
[01:50] <eck> inazad: i know at least in gnome, the samba mount is not actually mounted, it is just done on the fly in the gui app. if you want to access it from a console you need to actually mount it somewhere with smbmount, or by putting it in your fstab, or whatever the recommended method for samba is
[01:50] <eck> Arkaitz: possibly, but what other driver would you use?
[01:50] <Arkaitz> ATI, VESA or some other dunno, Im desperate
[01:50] <inazad> eck, When I'm typping "smbtree" its give to me this:
[01:50] <timfrost> r4nge: what language?

[01:51] <crdlb> The_PHP_Jedi, It's hardly spam
[01:52] <Arkaitz> how do I prevent VBE from loading? just deleting the line Load "vbe" or do I have to comment something
[01:52] <timfrost> r4nge: ' if [ -z "$q" ]  '
[01:52] <eck> inazad: so you need to actually mount the samba share before you can access it
[01:52] <inazad> eck, how ?
[01:53] <r4nge> thanks :)
[01:53] <crdlb> smbmount
[01:53] <eck> if you use the smbmount command it should do that for you
[01:53] <inazad> eck, ok I will check the manual
[01:53] <tunganet> can anyone help me set up beryl?
[01:53] <zeroflox> h1st0, you there mate?
[01:53] <K3nto> ok, i dotn even have a ./configure fiel
[01:53] <K3nto> file*
[01:53] <eck> inazad: you can also do it with regular mount... i think the syntax is something like mount -t cifs \\COMPUTER <a ton of weird settings here>
[01:53] <irunwithscissors> tung, i prolly can
[01:54] <tunganet> okay
[01:54] <irunwithscissors> what's the problem?
[01:54] <eck> it is documented in the man pages
[01:54] <inazad> eck, its not -t smbfs
[01:54] <tunganet> what do i lose if i install beryl?
[01:54] <eck> inazad: hasn't that been deprecated?
[01:54] <r4nge> timfrost: what language is this, i would like to be able to look stuff up myself
[01:54] <RandomDestructn> tunganet, a dreary desktop
[01:54] <tunganet> lol thats all?
[01:55] <tunganet> i dont lose any of my themes, splash screen and stuff right?

[02:04] <eck> Guest_686_: try resetting the modem, if that doesn't work you can do a static config
[02:04] <irunwithscissors> ramza, you need to do 'dpkg reconfigure -xserver -xorg'
[02:04] <eck> Guest_686_: you can get all the information by running ipconfig in windows
[02:04] <eck> blenna_unix: what about it?
[02:04] <BigMac> h1st0: How would I do that?
[02:04] <irunwithscissors> and go through and select your resolution when it comes up
[02:04] <tunganet> hey
[02:05] <irunwithscissors> hey tung.
[02:05] <tunganet> i run with scissors
[02:05] <irunwithscissors> sup?
[02:05] <tunganet> let say i am using ubuntu right
[02:05] <h1st0> BigMac: Let me find you a tutorial basicall you create a file in /usr/local/bin that is called nautilusbigmac or whatever.  Inside of that file you specify the options you want.  Then you just launch that file instead.
[02:05] <tunganet> do i follow it by..
[02:05] <irunwithscissors> k
[02:05] <cpk1> BENN92647: assuming the cd is mounted at /media/cdrom0 do 'wine /media/cdrom0/wherever/the/install.exe/is' (or setup.exe whatever it is)
[02:05] <BigMac> ok
[02:05] <Guest_686_> im using the same modem to connect from vista and ubuntu and ubuntu is the one having the problem
[02:05] <The_PHP_Jedi> timfrost: I still get error 15
[02:05] <nezz> session edit is not saving my startup appliction settings when I close the window.  Any ideas on how I can fix this?
[02:05] <tunganet> 1.1 -> 2. [all of them]  -> 3. [all of them]  ?
[02:06] <eck> BigMac, h1st0 : i think the correct way is to add it to a folder in ~/.gnome/ or something
[02:06] <irunwithscissors> tung, let me check.
[02:06] <eck> maybe ~.gnome/nautilus-scripts
[02:06] <K3nto> !xlibs-static-dev
[02:06] <ubotu> xlibs-static-dev: transitional metapackage. In component main, is optional. Version 1:7.1.1ubuntu6.2 (edgy), package size 17 kB, installed size 44 kB
[02:06] <eck> blenna_unix: do you know how to source your .bashrc?
[02:06] <tunganet> and is it better to start beryl-manager @ startup or no?
[02:06] <jrib> nezz: what is the result of this command:  find ~ ! -user $USER
[02:06] <irunwithscissors> tung, you should only need to follow all of step 1
[02:06] <K3nto> !libjack0.100.0-dev
[02:06] <ubotu> libjack0.100.0-dev: JACK Audio Connection Kit (development files). In component universe, is optional. Version 0.101.1-1 (edgy), package size 115 kB, installed size 864 kB
[02:07] <tunganet> oh
[02:07] <tunganet> so dont need to do any of the "installing the nvidia driver"
[02:07] <tunganet> right?
[02:07] <K3nto> dammit, why can SPM find libjack0.100.0-dev
[02:07] <rbil> BigMac, the nautilus scripts are placed in ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts
[02:07] <tunganet> and "adding beryl repository"
[02:07] <irunwithscissors> tung, setting it to startup will simply set it to load when you start ubuntu, otherwise you will have to start it yourself every time
[02:07] <tunganet> okay
[02:07] <irunwithscissors> tung, no simply run the script on that page
[02:08] <tunganet> okay
[02:08] <nezz> jrib: it doesn't find anything
[02:08] <tunganet> 1.1 only right?
[02:08] <marx2k> edit your sessions prefs and put beryl-manager into startup progs
[02:08] <eck> K3nto: do you have universe enabled?
[02:08] <irunwithscissors> start at 1.1 and continue through the rest of 1 until you have it working
[02:08] <Guest_686_> i just installed ubuntu 6.1 three or four hours ago and it wont connect to the internet
[02:08] <tunganet> arite
[02:08] <tunganet> i'll be right back again =D
[02:08] <lonran> hi
[02:08] <rbil> BigMac, they can be bash scripts or python scripts
[02:08] <lonran> i have beryl and emerald running but the original theme icon i had has changed, are the gtk control theme and the icon theme independent from emerald? where can i change the icon theme?
[02:08] <irunwithscissors> kk gl
[02:08] <eck> Guest_686_: did you reset the modem?
[02:08] <eck> ideally you should have a router
[02:08] <rbil> BigMac, they need to be set to executable after creating them in a text editor
[02:09] <eck> esp. if you have two computers
[02:09] <h1st0> BigMac: http://pegasus.rutgers.edu/~elflord/unix/bash-tute.html
[02:09] <Guest_686_> yeah
[02:09] <Guest_686_> but laptop is new
[02:09] <BigMac> rbil: ok so what type of file do I make them into
[02:09] <BigMac> like from txt
[02:09] <mytrueher2> Hello - I'm having trouble using bittorrent with Ubuntu. Whenever I start a bittorrent client, my network instantly dies. I have to reboot my router before I can get anything online again. I can run bittorrent on other machines running other OSs on the network and they work fine, but when I try to use it on Ubuntu, no such luck. Any ideas?
[02:09] <Guest_686_> let me try the modem thing be back in 5
[02:09] <rbil> BigMac, just write one as a bash script and then after you save it, make its permissions executable
[02:10] <eck> mytrueher2: do you know what tcp windows scaling is?
[02:10] <tunganet> irunwithscissors
[02:10] <tunganet> i am done.
[02:10] <eck> i have heard of problems like that caused by tcp window scaling
[02:10] <irunwithscissors> u like
[02:10] <irunwithscissors> ?
[02:10] <tunganet> but so many settings in the setting manager >.<
[02:10] <mytrueher2> eck: Not a clue, but I'd be willing to learn if it helps me out
[02:10] <tunganet> is it hard to set em up
[02:10] <irunwithscissors> haha, just take your time and go through them.
[02:10] <tunganet> hm arite
[02:10] <Malay_Linux> I  am using Kopete at Kubuntu 6.10 Edgy Eft...
[02:10] <BigMac> Can you point me a tutorial that will tell me the commands for executables, and I don't know how to make a bash script
[02:10] <irunwithscissors> just leave them alone unless you know you want it changed
[02:10] <tunganet> ok
[02:10] <irunwithscissors> then later when u find something you don't like, you can figure out how to change it
[02:11] <eck> mytrueher2: so, computers that use TCP are supposed to support window scaling, which basically lets you get more bandwidth out of a high latency connection, but not all hardware actually implements it. most operating systems just never use it for that
[02:11] <lgc> Hi! How can I change the ownership of an USB device?
[02:11] <mytrueher2> eck: Ok, I think I follow
[02:11] <eck> i think the default behavior in linux is to use window scaling, and if the router can't handle that it might break things
[02:11] <nezz> jrib: ok.. that search shows gedit-root autostart and beagled.desktop
[02:11] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi: you got it sorted out...
[02:11] <gili> ?
[02:11] <rbil> BigMac: here's an example of a nautilus script called gedit-root : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8159/
[02:12] <smccoy> I can't seem to uninstall or upgrade postgresql
[02:12] <eck> mytrueher2: http://proj.sunet.se/E2E/tcptune.html
[02:12] <smccoy> terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::logic_error' what():  basic_string::_S_construct NULL not valid
[02:12] <eck> if you cat  /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_window_scaling you can see if it is turned on
[02:12] <warriorness> Hey, all - does the Feisty LiveCD include ntfs-3g?
[02:12] <The_PHP_Jedi> no gili
[02:12] <rbil> BigMac: it allows you to right click in a directory and then select the script so that nautilus goes to the directory as user root
[02:12] <lgc> Hi! How can I change the ownership of an USB device?
[02:12] <The_PHP_Jedi> grub-install did nothing
[02:13] <mytrueher2> "cat  /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_window_scaling" gives me "1", which is the universal sign for "hell yes"
[02:13] <timfrost> The_PHP_Jedi: is /boot separate from the root of your Ubuntu install? - Error 15 usually indicates that grub can't find critical files (kernel or initrd)
[02:13] <eck> exactly
[02:13] <The_PHP_Jedi> yes timfrost
[02:13] <The_PHP_Jedi>  /boot is in /dev/sda7
[02:13] <eck> try echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_window_scaling
[02:13] <rbil> BigMac: you can find many nautilus scripts here ... http://g-scripts.sourceforge.net/
[02:13] <The_PHP_Jedi> kernel is in /dev/sda7
[02:13] <timfrost> The_PHP_Jedi: in that case, the '--root=' needs to point to where you mount the /boot partition
[02:14] <r3d|line> hi all
[02:14] <lgc> cafuego, you there?
[02:14] <K3nto> what does it mean when it tells you to install them only if you can install them from testing?
[02:14] <The_PHP_Jedi> it is pointing to that place.
[02:14] <eck> if that fixes it it really means your router sucks :-P
[02:14] <K3nto> packages i mean
[02:14] <r3d|line> i have small problem
[02:14] <tunganet> hey um
[02:14] <The_PHP_Jedi> it reinstalled 8supposedly*
[02:14] <The_PHP_Jedi> but I still get that error
[02:14] <tunganet> irunwithscissors
[02:14] <mytrueher2> eck: says "permission denied," even when I try to sudo
[02:14] <arredju> eck
[02:14] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi: noi think you have mounted the root as a different sda
[02:14] <r3d|line> is that in live cd
[02:14] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi: your root and boot are same sda no?
[02:14] <r3d|line> you mean
[02:14] <arredju> it is me the one with the internet problem with vista and ubuntu
[02:14] <irunwithscissors> yes
[02:14] <The_PHP_Jedi> yes
[02:14] <smccoy> bah
[02:14] <eck> arredju: did it not work?
[02:14] <tunganet> how do i run it
[02:14] <tunganet> like
[02:14] <arredju> guess what
[02:15] <tunganet> nothing has changed
[02:15] <K3nto> "the following, but only if you can install them from testing - do not install these from Sarge: "
[02:15] <arredju> it did work
[02:15] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi: so which did you mount as root
[02:15] <eck> mytrueher2: damn, you might need to load some kernel module to do it
[02:15] <irunwithscissors> did you set it to run at startup?
[02:15] <arredju> but i have a question
[02:15] <The_PHP_Jedi>  /dev/sda7
[02:15] <tunganet> um
[02:15] <runtime> Has #ubuntu ever reached 1000 people?
[02:15] <tunganet> i didn't disable run on startup
[02:15] <eck> arredju: ok, that means your cable modem sucks :-)
[02:15] <mytrueher2> eck: router is a linksys WRT54G, btw
[02:15] <tunganet> isnt default is run on startup?
[02:15] <rbil> runtime: every day
[02:15] <ScottLij> 1000 people? all the time
[02:15] <eck> weird
[02:15] <lgc> Flannel, you there?
[02:15] <irunwithscissors> not sure on that but im thinking so
[02:15] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi: what command did you use
[02:15] <eck> that is what i have, no problems
[02:15] <tunganet> do i need to reboot?
[02:15] <irunwithscissors> go in applications and look for it and see if you can start it
[02:15] <ScottLij> I found this a couple days ago while reading "Ubuntu Hacks"
[02:15] <arredju> do i have to restart the modem everytime i want to switch between the two comps
[02:15] <ntnp_> bonne nuit tlm, faites des bo reves :)
[02:16] <irunwithscissors> reboot never hurts, go ahead and try that
[02:16] <eck> arredju: you can either get a modem, or set up a static configuration
[02:16] <The_PHP_Jedi> sudo grub-install --root-directory=/media/sda7/boot /dev/sda7
[02:16] <eck> err get a router
[02:16] <lgc> arrenlex, hi!
[02:16] <tunganet> ok brb
[02:16] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi: what command did you to mount root
[02:16] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi: what command did you to mount root?
[02:16] <arredju> you mean a new modem?
[02:16] <mytrueher2> eck: hrm. is it worth trying to disable tcp window scaling anyway?
[02:16] <The_PHP_Jedi> mount root..
[02:16] <The_PHP_Jedi>  sudo mount /dev/sda7 /media/sda7
[02:16] <The_PHP_Jedi> in Live CD
[02:17] <xljnogsk> what is your prob php jedi???
[02:17] <eck> mytrueher2: this exact command didn't work? "echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_window_scaling"
[02:17] <eck> as root of course
[02:17] <tag> xljnogsk: his nick is "php jedi", thus, he is probably loco.
[02:17] <arredju> alright thanks a bunch eck
[02:17] <The_PHP_Jedi> erm, no.
[02:17] <The_PHP_Jedi> I am not 'loco'
[02:18] <lgc> Pinches locos hganme caso!
[02:18] <eck> mytrueher2: some supplementary information, if you are interested: http://lwn.net/Articles/92727/
[02:18] <xljnogsk> sounds pertinant to my prob
[02:18] <tag> The_PHP_Jedi: If you're as intimately familiar with PHP as your moniker claims, then you'd be hard pressed not to be bat-shit insane.
[02:18] <The_PHP_Jedi> no te voy a hacer caso lgc
[02:18] <mytrueher2> eck: as root, or with sudo?
[02:18] <The_PHP_Jedi> hehe
[02:18] <nezz> jrib: THANKS!  the autostart directory in my .config folder was set for root permissions!  You are great!
[02:18] <The_PHP_Jedi> I'm an expert @ PHP, Ruby, RoR, general Web Dev
[02:18] <lgc> The_PHP_Jedi, ya me lo hiciste, loco.
[02:18] <The_PHP_Jedi> :)
[02:18] <irunwithscissors> jrib gets a cookie
[02:19] <ramza3> marx2k, back again; I looked up the modelines stuff, not defined in my xorg.conf; is there an automatic way for ubuntu to set that.  it worked while using the livecd
[02:19] <eck> mytrueher2: either should work
[02:19] <The_PHP_Jedi> lo que sea cabron
[02:19] <tag> The_PHP_Jedi: Again, you're probably bat-shit insane.
[02:19] <The_PHP_Jedi> ..
[02:19] <mytrueher2> eck: with sudo, still says "permission denied"
[02:19] <K3nto> !libgnutls11-dev
[02:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about libgnutls11-dev - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:19] <xljnogsk> what were you talking about with gili?
[02:19] <K3nto> is libgnutls11-dev mis-spelled?
[02:19] <lgc> The_PHP_Jedi, oye, puto, t sabes algo de montaje de USB?
[02:19] <eck> the link i just sent you has a line that you can add to your sysctl.conf, try changing that and rebooting
[02:19] <The_PHP_Jedi> xljnogsk: GRUB problem..
[02:19] <xljnogsk> i have one too
[02:19] <ramza3> or anybody else who knows how to set the modelines automatically
[02:19] <The_PHP_Jedi> no mucho, lgc. de donde eres?
[02:20] <lgc> The_PHP_Jedi, de Mxico.
[02:20] <The_PHP_Jedi> (sorry for spanish talk guys, :P )
[02:20] <xljnogsk> i cannot get ubuntu to boot , not even in recovery mode
[02:20] <The_PHP_Jedi> yo vivo en Puerto Rico, aunque soy the New York :)

[02:20] <mytrueher2> eck: thanks, I'll give that a try. be back in a few either way
[02:20] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi: I dont think you are usning the right mount sytnax
[02:20] <marx2k> ramza, boot your livecd and copy the xorgconf while its on livecd
[02:20] <tag> The_PHP_Jedi: let me guess, you're also a MySQL expert with 10 years of experience in SQL 99
[02:20] <mytrueher2> eck: unless of course I hose my system, that is ;)
[02:20] <BENN92647> i have to cd from the directory
[02:21] <The_PHP_Jedi> lmao
[02:21] <xljnogsk> lol
[02:21] <The_PHP_Jedi> no tag
[02:21] <The_PHP_Jedi> that's the mount syntax, gili
[02:21] <The_PHP_Jedi> it mounts perfectly
[02:21] <BENN92647> but dont know how
[02:21] <arredju> ok now that i have the internet working i have another question
[02:21] <arredju> for anyone
[02:21] <gili> what happens when you ls /dev/media/sda7 or whatever you have
[02:21] <timfrost> K3nto: what Ubuntu release? Edgy has libgnutls12 and libgnutls13
[02:22] <gili> does it show root files
[02:22] <The_PHP_Jedi> oh
[02:22] <The_PHP_Jedi> yes it does
[02:22] <arredju> on how i use my second hard drive
[02:22] <lgc> The_PHP_Jedi, how is it that when I mount an USB stick it appears to belong to me (lgc) regardless of what user I log in as, and I am not able to change permissions?
[02:22] <The_PHP_Jedi> I can browse to it
[02:22] <shiggity> BENN92647: you haven't installed guildwars yet right?
[02:22] <The_PHP_Jedi> lgc: use root
[02:22] <tag> The_PHP_Jedi: Why not?
[02:22] <The_PHP_Jedi> or sudo
[02:22] <BENN92647> no i havent
[02:22] <The_PHP_Jedi> chown or chmod
[02:22] <BENN92647> im afraid
[02:22] <The_PHP_Jedi> tag: I'm young
[02:22] <The_PHP_Jedi> and I don't use SQL :)
[02:22] <irunwithscissors> hey benn im running guildwars on ubuntu if you happen to still need help later
[02:22] <shiggity> ok first go on the internet and search wine guildwars
[02:22] <The_PHP_Jedi> I use MySQL latest
[02:23] <xljnogsk> ooooooohhh i have a random question thats been really buggy me, If i write, man mount, in terminal, i get the manual, but how do i get back to the terminal without having to open a new one....?
[02:23] <BENN92647> linux is pretty forgiving but i dont want to ruin my install
[02:23] <BENN92647> i did that
[02:23] <lgc> The_PHP_Jedi, not even so. The USB stick just seems to ignore chown.
[02:23] <shiggity> BENN92647: did you find the appdb page?
[02:23] <BENN92647> but i dont understand enough about command line codes yet
[02:23] <The_PHP_Jedi> weird lgc..
[02:23] <jepeltw> hello all, i'm trying to use a static IP address on 6.06 LTS and I can access my local net (192.168.2.0/24) but not the Internet. Adding the default route to the routing table isn't working
[02:23] <shiggity> ok
[02:23] <BENN92647> yes
[02:23] <timfrost> xljnogsk: type 'q' to quit the manpage browser
[02:23] <raul> xljnogsk: just type "q"
[02:23] <lgc> The_PHP_Jedi, indeed.
[02:23] <BENN92647> guild wars has a few bugs but it works
[02:23] <xljnogsk> jeees thanx
[02:23] <xljnogsk> lol
[02:24] <shiggity> BENN92647: good, that's what I need to know
[02:24] <xljnogsk> i feel ashamed now lol
[02:24] <xljnogsk> i gotta go fly
[02:24] <tag> The_PHP_Jedi: Cute.  But you are an expert in "RoR" which employs, as the center of the framework, an ORM which is dependent upon a psuedo-RDBMS which speaks SQL.  Yet you don't use SQL.
[02:24] <shiggity> BENN92647: ok, do you have the cd in the drive?
[02:24] <eck> jepeltw: pastebin the output of route -n
[02:24] <BENN92647> yes
[02:24] <The_PHP_Jedi> I learned RoR recently, hehe
[02:24] <cpk1> BENN92647: do you know the name of the installer file?
[02:24] <The_PHP_Jedi> and it uses MySQL
[02:24] <tag> The_PHP_Jedi: you must be young >:-)  You haven't had to really build anything.
[02:24] <irunwithscissors> you don't need the guild wars cd to install it on linux, just fyi >.>
[02:24] <BENN92647> i can find out wait
[02:24] <The_PHP_Jedi> not SQL necesarilly
[02:24] <tag> Uhm
[02:24] <The_PHP_Jedi> anyways
[02:24] <shiggity> ok do this: ls /media/cdrom

[02:24] <BENN92647> setup.exe
[02:25] <xamox> what do I have to do to be able to get jars to run?
[02:25] <jo3_> whats the grub problem?
[02:25] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi: you told timfrost that your grub-install had root=.......etc etc..... /boot but that does not seem to point to a mounted location
[02:25] <shiggity> BENN92647: ok, do these two things. "cd /media/cdrom0" and then "wine setup.exe" no quotes of course
[02:26] <The_PHP_Jedi> it is mounted
[02:26] <Hummin> can I get some beryl+xgl help ?.. I've got it almost setup for my ati card.. but I get the X cursor + checkered background when I choose the xgl session
[02:26] <The_PHP_Jedi> to /media/sda7
[02:26] <The_PHP_Jedi> Hummin: try #ubuntu-effects
[02:26] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi: you said that you typed in sudo grub-install --root-directory=/media/sda7/boot /dev/sda7
[02:26] <jepeltw> eck, http://pastebin.ca/377831
[02:26] <arredju> hi i need help mounting a second hard drive but i cant even view it in ubuntu can anyone help me please
[02:26] <timfrost> The_PHP_Jedi: what is in /media/sda7/boot?
[02:27] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi: why the /boot directory
[02:27] <gili> i dont understand
[02:27] <h1st0> arredju: sure you can vie wit.
[02:27] <raul> xamox: think you need a Java Rutime Enviroment
[02:27] <irunwithscissors> hey, shiggity
[02:27] <h1st0> arredju: sudo fdisk -l  should be showing up there.
[02:27] <arredju> how
[02:27] <BENN92647> ok it is asking for  a folder to install to

[02:27] <raul> xamox: sorry, its "Runtime"
[02:27] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi:it should be sudo grub-install --root-directory=/media/sda7 /dev/sda7
[02:27] <The_PHP_Jedi>  /media/sda7/boot has grub folder and a few images
[02:27] <BENN92647> where do i install
[02:27] <arredju> i did that but it only showed my 20 g hard drive
[02:27] <irunwithscissors> shiggity: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=283122     --it's a script to install guild wars without even a cd
[02:27] <arredju> i have another one thats 30 g
[02:27] <shiggity> BENN92647: go with the defaults
[02:27] <BENN92647> k
[02:28] <irunwithscissors> shiggity: installs wine too and everything
[02:28] <arredju> its connected and everything
[02:28] <h1st0> arredju: open a terminal and sudo fdisk -l  see if the partition is listed there.
[02:28] <BENN92647> crap!
[02:28] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi:it should be sudo grub-install to whatever the actuall root  is moutned to man
[02:28] <h1st0> arredju: what type of partition is it?
[02:28] <BENN92647> it says the folder is write protected
[02:28] <shiggity> irunwithscissors: well we're halfway done doing this way, but we could always try that later
[02:28] <BENN92647> unable to write to
[02:28] <The_PHP_Jedi> what do you mean gili?
[02:28] <irunwithscissors> shiggity: lol ok
[02:28] <arredju> what do you mean>
[02:28] <arredju> ???
[02:28] <shiggity> BENN92647: weird, where is it trying to write to?
[02:28] <h1st0> arredju: LIKE IS IT WINDOWS?
[02:28] <h1st0> arredju: linux?
[02:28] <h1st0> arredju: fat
[02:28] <arredju> windows
[02:28] <BENN92647> C;\Guildwars
[02:28] <arredju> yeah
[02:28] <h1st0> arredju: windows xp?
[02:28] <raul> xamox: Are there any output when u type "java" in console?
[02:28] <gili> The_PHP_Jedi: alright......what is your root? sda7
[02:28] <arredju> xp
[02:28] <arredju> yep
[02:29] <BENN92647> C:\guildwars
[02:29] <h1st0> !ntfs | arredju
[02:29] <ubotu> arredju: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[02:29] <The_PHP_Jedi> root /dev/sda7
[02:29] <The_PHP_Jedi> yeah
[02:29] <eck> jepeltw: what about /etc/resolv.conf ?
[02:29] <h1st0> arredju: it may be already mounted under /media/hda1 or something similiar but follow the directions from ubotu
[02:29] <shiggity> BENN92647: that shouldn't happen. let me check the appdb page to see if there are special instructions
[02:29] <BENN92647> K thank you
[02:30] <h1st0> BENN92647: So you can play guild wars.
[02:30] <h1st0> BENN92647: :) linux rocks
[02:30] <ST47> Why is it that the Ubuntu installer gets stuck at 6
[02:30] <BENN92647> yeah I know this is not the place...but if your a n00b like me linux is a way better system than windows just have to be patient
[02:30] <marx2k>                             yep it does
[02:30] <eck> make sure that you have a nameserver line on the correct subnet there
[02:30] <ST47> Why is it that the Ubuntu installer gets stuck at 6% sometimes?
[02:30] <Hummin> gah.. can anyone point me at a step-by-step guide online that will make beryl+xgl run on my x1300 card ?
[02:30] <BENN92647> hi hlst0 yeah so far i found that it got a gold rating
[02:30] <whileimhere> is there a way to save flv videos from utube?
[02:30] <h1st0> BENN92647: Yeah it will be a lot more stable once you get everything set up plus you will learn along the way.
[02:30] <BENN92647> but you have to do some patching
[02:31] <BENN92647> lol shiggity is trying to help me get it installed
[02:31] <raul> Hummin: go to #ubuntu-effects
[02:31] <jepeltw> eck, it's currently set to localhost, and bind isn't working because it can't get to the greater net. I resolved google with a different NS and pinged 64.x.x.x. and it said network is unreachable
[02:31] <eck> whileimhere: i think there are some firefox extensions that do that
[02:31] <BENN92647> i got the install screen up in wine
[02:31] <h1st0> whileimhere: yeah
[02:31] <h1st0> whileimhere: I'm pretty sure you could let me try some stuff.
[02:31] <BENN92647> but got a write protected on the C:guildwars folder install
[02:32] <Soccer5555> http://www.jibjab.com/originals/originals/jibjab/movieid/123
[02:32] <eck> jepeltw: well the routing table shows that the computer only knows how to get to 192.168.1.x, so you can only get on that subnet
[02:32] <Soccer5555> funny XD
[02:32] <r3d|line> what about vmware
[02:32] <r3d|line> &ubuntu
[02:32] <mytruehero> eck: No luck. This is what happened: I start ktorrent; the torrent I had started previously is sitting there, with a status of "stalled"; I open up a new torrent; the new torrent AND the previous torrent I had in there start downloading; download speed climbs, then falls to 0 over the course of literally five seconds; both torrents now say "stalled"; network is now dead, and I have to restart my router
[02:32] <eck> so you need to be able to talk to a nameserver on that subnet
[02:32] <r3d|line> its to slow
[02:32] <The_PHP_Jedi> no luck gili..
[02:32] <BENN92647> damn it im an idiot!
[02:32] <h1st0> whileimhere: http://video.qooqle.jp/dl/
[02:32] <marx2k> mytruehero, cap your router up speed
[02:32] <shiggity> BENN92647: you might have an issue with your wine install or config
[02:32] <marx2k> to 90% of the max up speed
[02:33] <BENN92647> i tried change folder and it crashed
[02:33] <eck> mytruehero: i think the line i gave you was incorrect, it gave the old filename under /proc
[02:33] <tunganet> irunwithscissors
[02:33] <shiggity> BENN92647: on the appdb page, it says you have to download GWSETUP.EXE and install that
[02:33] <eck> mytruehero: if that doesnt' fix it, you need some tcpdump hackery
[02:33] <BENN92647> yeah let me bring winecfg up
[02:33] <nexous> Where can I find the files to Bluefish on my filesystem? besides /home/user/.bluefish/
[02:33] <ubuntu610> hola amigos
[02:33] <eck> mytruehero: you can look at the traffic in tcpdump or ethereal and see what is killing the router
[02:33] <jepeltw> eck, how to let it out onto the Internet? I tried route add -net default gw 192.168.2.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev eth1 which didn't work
[02:33] <tunganet> HELP! my sysyem cannot load after i tried to install BERYL
[02:33] <mytruehero> marx2k: I'm not sure how to do that; also, it should be mentioned that other operating systems are running bittorrent fine on my network, it's just my ubuntu machine that is doing this
[02:33] <tedu> heloo
[02:33] <BENN92647> it doesnt show on the CD
[02:33] <irunwithscissors> tung buddy
[02:34] <raul> tunganet
[02:34] <mytruehero> eck: ok. what should I do next?
[02:34] <ramza3> I have the gdm login set to resolution 1600x1200 and when I log in I get a different resolution; how can I change the gdm resolutoin
[02:34] <tunganet> help!!
[02:34] <irunwithscissors> what went wrong
[02:34] <h1st0> tunganet: /j #ubuntu-effectrs
[02:34] <h1st0> tunganet: /j #ubuntu-effects
[02:34] <tunganet> i went to reboot
[02:34] <raul> its a blank screen?
[02:34] <tunganet> then
[02:34] <h1st0> tedu: hola
[02:34] <tunganet> its a blue screen..
[02:34] <tunganet> saying uh
[02:34] <shiggity> shiggity: but yeah, it sounds like your wine install or config iis messed up. I have to get going, but these other guys can help
[02:34] <h1st0> tunganet: beryl support is in #ubuntu-effects
[02:34] <marx2k> mytruehero, start a ping on google.com, then start your torrents and see what the pink reply goes to before it times out
[02:34] <tunganet> failed to start X server
[02:34] <BENN92647> AH HA!
[02:34] <BENN92647> found the bugger
[02:34] <eck> jepeltw: try adding 192.168.2.1 to resolv.conf, i'm not really sure
[02:34] <raul> its your driver
[02:34] <BENN92647> damn thing was hiding
[02:34] <BENN92647> lol
[02:34] <nexous> I went to sessions panel, added /usr/bin/conky to startup programs, but it doesnt start on startup. Any idea?
[02:34] <tunganet> how do i fix it!
[02:34] <linevty04> evenin'
[02:35] <marx2k> usually if it bogs down like that its because your router is saturating its up bandwidth
[02:35] <irunwithscissors> reinstall beryl and choose to install the driver this time
[02:35] <tunganet> how!
[02:35] <tunganet> i cant even load up
[02:35] <tunganet> to my desktop
[02:35] <h1st0> nexous: did you set up conky like will it work if you just alt + f2 and type in conky?
[02:35] <irunwithscissors> can you go to recovery mode
[02:35] <tunganet> uh
[02:35] <tunganet> whta do i press..
[02:35] <lhuynh> excuse me, I was sent here to ask about scripts and/or vpython
[02:35] <marx2k> the other problem routers usually have is that they keep a cache of all of your connections and if you have a LOT of connections, it will crash the router
[02:35] <h1st0> zeroflox: did you get it sorted out i'm sorry I had to run away.
[02:35] <Matic`Makovec> Hey, would anyone know about a working - good howto about 3D desktop and compiz and all that?
[02:36] <jrib> lhuynh: k, just ask
[02:36] <marx2k> newer routers will remove the cache after 90 seconds of not connecting to the IP
[02:36] <jrib> !compiz | Matic`Makovec
[02:36] <irunwithscissors> tung, before the login screen do you see a list of selectable operating systems?
[02:36] <ubotu> Matic`Makovec: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[02:36] <rick8007> hi i have a wireless question
[02:36] <matty_v> Can anyone help me install BricsCAD on my ubuntu machine? I tried using alien to convert from the rpm package to a deb package and it doesnt seem to install properly
[02:36] <tunganet> nope
[02:36] <eck> mytruehero: try changing the sysctl line to use tcp_window_scaling instead of whatever it was before. if that doesn't work, install ethereal and look for anything weird that ktorrent is sending out
[02:36] <jrib> rick8007: k, go ahead and just ask
[02:36] <Matic`Makovec> Thanks
[02:36] <h1st0> !compiz | Matic`Makovec
[02:36] <mytruehero> eck: Ok. will give it a try. brb
[02:36] <tunganet> can you talk to me in the other window
[02:36] <joshua__> trying to install wireless (dell 1390, bcm4311) via ndiswrapper...
[02:36] <Eagle_101> hey ST47 :P
[02:36] <eck> there must be some kind of network setting that ktorrent is using on the sockets that your router doesn't like
[02:37] <ST47> hello
[02:37] <The_PHP_Jedi> fucking GRUB
[02:37] <whileimhere> h1sto: Im trying to dl files from southparkzone.com

[02:37] <nexous> h1st0: yes, i click ALT F2 and then type conky to startup.
[02:37] <ST47> I'm going to see if he calls back, he's checking the iso atm
[02:37] <mytruehero> eck: Well, it's not just ktorrent; I have tried a half dozen different clients, and they all do the same thing
[02:37] <lhuynh> jrib: how would I create a script to start a vpython program?
[02:37] <h1st0> joshua__: unload teh module.

[02:37] <h1st0> nexous: does it work?
[02:37] <tedu> need some help w refresh rate pls
[02:37] <marx2k> crashing routers is usually not OS specific
[02:37] <tunganet> i tink i am there
[02:37] <nexous> h1st0: when I type it in alt f2, yes
[02:37] <h1st0> nexous: are you using compiz or beryl?
[02:37] <tag> I need to cancel an installation that is pending configuration
[02:37] <eck> mytruehero: also, make sure the firmware on the router is up to date
[02:37] <nexous> h1st0: it just won't load on startup
[02:37] <BENN92647> so do i have to direct wine to the gw folder pn the CD?
[02:37] <mytruehero> marx2k: I know, that's why I'm perplexed ;)
[02:37] <irunwithscissors> press control-alt-f1
[02:37] <nexous> h1st0: not sure.
[02:37] <mytruehero> eck: ok. brb
[02:37] <irunwithscissors> when it loads up and says it can't start the x server
[02:37] <nexous> h1st0: all I know, Gnome, Metacity :D
[02:37] <h1st0> nexous: Do you haev a 3d desktop like a cube.
[02:37] <linevty04> so... who has an intel i915(gm) chipset in here with open gl workin'?  tried to the best of my knowledge to get it workin' follow'd just about everthing on google that has to do with such matters. only thing i never completed was inserting patches (dont know how)  Other than that i can try and help anyone on a d610 laptop
[02:38] <nexous> h1st0: no
[02:38] <BENN92647> i found gwsetup.exe
[02:38] <joshua__> hlst0: modprobe -r bcmwl5?
[02:38] <BENN92647> but i cant get wine to run it
[02:38] <gili_> sorry got disconnected
[02:38] <gili_> did you get my last message PHP
[02:38] <gili_> ?
[02:38] <eck> linevty04: it should just work
[02:38] <The_PHP_Jedi> no gili
[02:38] <h1st0> nexous: okay.  The only thing I would try is maybe make a script to delay the starting of conky like 5 seconds  sleep 5 and on the next line put conky
[02:38] <codi> how can i go about figuring out why mysql won't start?
[02:38] <eck> check with glxinfo
[02:38] <linevty04> mainly getting DRI workin'. the drivers wont compile correctly (cause of the default 8mb shared mem, dri wont work with 8mb)
[02:38] <h1st0> nexous: it might be loading before metacity or something.
[02:38] <h1st0> codi: logs
[02:39] <nexous> h1st0: okay, sorry but, Not sure how to make it delay.
[02:39] <codi> logs
[02:39] <cpk1> BENN92647: what is the full path to gwsetup.exe?
[02:39] <codi> run logs
[02:39] <craigbass1976>  My wife was in the store today and called me about a printer.  I swear she said Epson Stylus CX3000, but she came home with a CX6000, classified so far as a paperweight on openprinting.org.  Am I out of luck?
[02:39] <BENN92647> its on cdrom/guildwarsdisc1/data is that it?
[02:39] <omegabeta> anyone know how to get a usb game pad working under efty?
[02:39] <marx2k> nexous, describe your problem with conky again pls
[02:39] <gili_> The_PHP_Jedi: it seems to me that you are not mounting the root and the boot to the same place where you have the grub install pointin towards the root
[02:39] <h1st0> nexous: well you can make a shell script that waits 5 seconds then it launches conky.  Then you would just add that to your sessions.
[02:39] <rick8007> i have a bcm4318 wireless card that I just got working but I can't see the connection on the desktop. If I go in the command line and pull it up it shows I'm connected but I see no wireless icon just the ethernet that says not connected. The first time I got it to work I had the wireless monitor on there,  where I could choose my wireless network. Then I tried to enable wep and it went to hell. I now have the card working but like 
[02:39] <nexous> marx2k: I have to manually type ALT F2 then conky to show conky
[02:39] <The_PHP_Jedi> how do I change where GRUB looks for root?
[02:39] <The_PHP_Jedi> that's what I need to change
[02:39] <linevty04> eck: i've read of bugs with opengl and the i915gm opengl/dri support... there's workarounds but i dont know where/how to insert some lines of code i've found
[02:39] <marx2k> nexous: I have a desktop icon that runs it
[02:39] <tunganet> irun with scissors
[02:40] <marx2k> I run it after gnome starts
[02:40] <irunwithscissors> yes
[02:40] <nexous> marx2k: I don't want a desktop icon to run it though.
[02:40] <ubm> ou craigbass1976 i have the same printer here at home my wife picked it up at walmart it works like a champ
[02:40] <BENN92647> so it would be /media/cdrom0/guildwarsdisc1/data
[02:40] <tunganet> i am in the terminal
[02:40] <h1st0> marx2k: he's trying to get it to launch on startup.
[02:40] <irunwithscissors> i told you in private chat
[02:40] <irunwithscissors> look
[02:40] <marx2k> launching conky on startup is bad news with metacity
[02:40] <nexous> h1st0: sorry, I'm a noob, I have to have like # usr/bin/perl or something? what is it all?
[02:40] <BENN92647> then wine gwsetup.exe
[02:40] <tunganet> uh
[02:40] <rick8007> it says connected in command line
[02:40] <h1st0> marx2k: not really you just need to delay it.
[02:40] <tunganet> can u send again
[02:40] <gili_> The_PHP_Jedi: have you mounted both the boot folder and the roort golder
[02:40] <eck> linevty04: well, i am using hte 855gm which uses the 915 driver, and everything works for me
[02:40] <marx2k> yeah... but delaying it is a bitch
[02:40] <irunwithscissors> did you get that?
[02:40] <The_PHP_Jedi> root folder?
[02:40] <tunganet> no..
[02:40] <cpk1> BENN92647: so do wine /media/cdrom0/guildwarsdisc1/data/gwsetup (assuming cdrom links to /media/cdrom0
[02:40] <linevty04> hmm
[02:40] <irunwithscissors> k

[02:41] <The_PHP_Jedi> ..

[02:42] <The_PHP_Jedi> that's alll
[02:42] <rick8007> it works
[02:42] <eck> linevty04: in that case, i would try downloading the latest kernel from kernel.org and compiling it with the 915 drivers
[02:42] <nexous> h1st0: also, I don't have to have it conkystart.sh right? it can just be saved as conkystart rigt?
[02:42] <lhuynh> jrib: actually, I'm trying to install it.
[02:42] <The_PHP_Jedi> how do I do that?
[02:42] <linevty04> rick8007: are you using ndiswrapper?

[02:42] <BENN92647> well we are like sooo close, it is me that isnt doing something in the right order
[02:42] <tunganet> i type em in seperate lines right?
[02:42] <irunwithscissors> sup
[02:42] <irunwithscissors> yep
[02:42] <yurimxpxman> rick8007: how?
[02:42] <eck> linevty04: have you compiled the kernel before?
[02:42] <tunganet> ok wait
[02:42] <linevty04> eck: i havent had much luck with compiling... u know of a good how-to?
[02:42] <SmileyLap> Hi guys, i have my wireless card plugged into my Laptop (PCMCIA, and it appears correctly in the device manager, but hte led's dont light up and i dont appear to be able to use it, Anyone help me out?)
[02:42] <yurimxpxman> (if you were referring to me)
[02:43] <eck> linevty04: use the gentoo docs
[02:43] <gili_> The_PHP_Jedi: you have done it already....look at that grub-install root=....that you have just writted down up ther
[02:43] <rick8007> line it was wierd I can paste the link for you
[02:43] <marx2k> mytruehero, hey dude :) Im from madison..we have the same provider :D
[02:43] <jrib> lhuynh: are you just trying to install the vpython module? or do you have a program that utilizes vpython?
[02:43] <The_PHP_Jedi> that doesn't work though
[02:43] <linevty04> eck: i've tried compiling xorg-air but not much luck, did the menu-config and make and whatnot and usually got errors with a main.o file
[02:43] <h1st0> nexous: yeah copy and paste the script I made from http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8165/  Then just put it in /usr/local/bin/conkystart   You have to use sudo to edit /usr/local/bin/conkystart paste what I've posted there.  then sudo chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/conkystart   .
[02:43] <eck> it's pretty simple, you just need to make sure you catch everything you need to include
[02:43] <gili_> you have root: pointin to a mount point which is not your root
[02:43] <mytruehero> eck: The command you gave me is successfully disabling window scaling, but did not fix the problem. I downloaded wire shark, but I'm not sure how to use it
[02:43] <yurimxpxman> Do any of you know how to make the virtual desktop buttons smaller in KDE?
[02:43] <rick8007> @line: just follow it and it works, just dont enable wep thats what messed me up
[02:43] <The_PHP_Jedi> so what do I do gili?
[02:43] <h1st0> nexous: then you can just call conkystart from the sessioin panel should delay it.
[02:44] <mytruehero> marx2k: Cool. I'm in Eau Claire - western WI :)
[02:44] <nexous> okay thanks.
[02:44] <eck> linevty04: you don't need to recompile xorg, just the kernel module
[02:44] <lhuynh> jrib: the module? I'm trying to install it. I'll eventually use it for a program, yes
[02:44] <linevty04> rick8007: PM me if you want
[02:44] <craigbass1976> ubm, Well, that was retarded.  Not what you said, but I used the 5800 driver instead of the 6300 (there's no straight 6000 driver) even though they're both the same driver, and it printed fine.
[02:44] <Talaman> hello there
[02:44] <cpk1> BENN92647: do ls -l .wine/drive_c/windows/system32
[02:44] <marx2k> mytruehero, I figured, from your hostname
[02:44] <Talaman> having one issue
[02:44] <jrib> lhuynh: what is "it"
[02:44] <mytruehero> marx2k: you leet haxor
[02:44] <marx2k> :O
[02:44] <marx2k> I hate charter
[02:44] <Talaman> system does not boot into gdm/startx
[02:44] <tunganet> ok scissors
[02:44] <TheVault> umb come back online real quick
[02:44] <irunwithscissors> yes?
[02:44] <tunganet> every line seems to work except for the last line
[02:44] <linevty04> eck: i think i'll do some googlin' on that so i dont bombard you with noobish questions :)
[02:44] <tunganet> rm -r ~/.beryl-managerrc
[02:44] <irunwithscissors> what is the error
[02:44] <BENN92647> ok its show in this order the drives from top to bottom C: /cdrom/
[02:44] <ubm> craigbass1976 come to think of it my wife had that same problem when we got the printer but it was with our Fedora machine
[02:44] <tunganet> uh
[02:45] <tunganet> no file or directory
[02:45] <lhuynh> jrib: visual python. I'm not much more sure how to explain it
[02:45] <linevty04> eck: thanks, 'cause i was trying to compile it all
[02:45] <fiyawerx> hey guys, how can i get a list of hd*'s that aren't mounted?
[02:45] <tunganet> no such*
[02:45] <xamox> when I do a java -jar and it gives me a "failed to load main-class manifest attritbute from.." what does that mean?
[02:45] <marx2k> speaking of torrents... charter forwarded an EMail to me that paramount pictures told them I was sharing movie torrents... so now I cant download movie torrents anymore since this is my 'last chance'
[02:45] <TheVault> umd: come back on msn real quick
[02:45] <BENN92647> D:/media/cdrom0
[02:45] <nexous> how do I first create a file via sudo?
[02:45] <mytruehero> marx2k: Heh. that sucks.
[02:45] <ubm> TheVault just ask in here bro
[02:45] <jrib> lhuynh: install the python-visual package to install the vpython module
[02:45] <marx2k> indeedly :(
[02:45] <craigbass1976> ubm, You've migrated from Fedora too?
[02:45] <h1st0> nexous: just sudo nano /usr/local/bin/conkystart
[02:45] <irunwithscissors> ok try restarting and tell me if u can boot up now
[02:45] <nexous> nvm
[02:45] <tunganet> ok
[02:45] <h1st0> nexous: that will open a text editor
[02:45] <BENN92647>  the path designation is C:/cdrom/
[02:45] <nexous> h1st0: just did, was thinking that i had to create it first.
[02:45] <TheVault> alright, when it says to go here and edit this: - Edit /etc/network/interfaces:  auto ethX iface ethX inet dhcp wireless-essid <your accesspoints essid> wpa-driver wext wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
[02:46] <lhuynh> jrib: okay. I did that. is there anything else, or can I just start it? (and if so, how?)
[02:46] <marx2k> mytruehero, do you have charter's 10 Mbit servuce?
[02:46] <TheVault> I edited the file but it won't let me save it
[02:46] <TheVault> i tried the permissions command it don't work
[02:46] <eck> mytruehero: you don't have linux on the router, do you?
[02:46] <mytruehero> marx2k: Not even sure. it's included in my rent, so I never see the bills or anything
[02:46] <cpk1> BENN92647: actually just do 'ls -l .wine/drive_c/windows/' from your home directory and make sure everything is owned by you
[02:46] <ubm> craigbass1976 i still run fedora 6 here at home but i prefer ubuntu over fc6 because it seems to work better with embedded development for mips-32
[02:46] <mytruehero> eck: No, factory settings and firmware
[02:46] <h1st0> TheVault: you need to edit the file as root
[02:46] <marx2k> oh wow.. thats cool mykilx
[02:46] <jrib> lhuynh: don't use "it", I have no idea what you are referring to :)
[02:46] <marx2k> mytruehero, i  mean
[02:46] <h1st0> TheVault: sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
[02:47] <tunganet> nopee
[02:47] <tunganet> same thing
[02:47] <craigbass1976> ubm, what's mips-32?
[02:47] <mytruehero> marx2k: eh. just means I pay the landlord instead of charter, and I have less control over it
[02:47] <ubm> h1st0 he is new he isnt ready for nano :) let him use gedit
[02:47] <lhuynh> jrib: sorry 'bout that. I typed in sudo apt-get python-visual. is there anything else to do?
[02:47] <craigbass1976> ubm, I'm just quitting because of the short FC life cycle
[02:47] <TheVault> yeah what ubm said lol
[02:47] <nexous> I'll be back, gonna restart and see if it loads.
[02:47] <irunwithscissors> ok
[02:47] <marx2k> mytruehero,  whoa..not sweet
[02:47] <irunwithscissors> try
[02:47] <eck> i think you want to do something like create a filter to catch tcp traffic on the ports the torrent is using, and then run it on your interface
[02:47] <h1st0> TheVault: okay gksu gedit /etc/network/interfaces
[02:47] <irunwithscissors> apt-get remove beryl
[02:47] <jrib> lhuynh: nope, now you have the vpython module installed.  You can run python programs that use the module or write your own python scripts that use the module
[02:47] <lhuynh> and then would it just be vpython in the terminal, like one types "python" ?
[02:47] <marx2k> Im paying $55/month for 5Mbit down. 512 up..and no contract... month to month
[02:47] <ubm> MIPS32 32-bit architecture for embedded systems as in processors
[02:48] <eck> there's a big capture button or something that will do it
[02:48] <mytruehero> eck: Yeah, it wants me to define an interface; not sure what exactly that is asking for, though
[02:48] <mytruehero> eck: I can figure out where to set it, just not what to set it to
[02:48] <BENN92647> ok shiggity shows alot of drwxr-xr-x 2 folders and my name on all of them
[02:48] <jrib> lhuynh: I guess the name of the module is really "visual", it's a module just like "sys" or "os", you import it and use it in your python program
[02:48] <ubm> craigbass1976 i love fedora but ubuntu defiantly dominates
[02:48] <TheVault> Thank you
[02:48] <TheVault> that worked
[02:48] <craigbass1976> ubm, how bout the scanner?  Were you able to get that part running, or can you jsut use it as a photo copier?
[02:48] <rick8007> anyone know how to bring back the wireless connection tool to the desktop?
[02:48] <auk> :(
[02:49] <auk> still not working
[02:49] <gili_> The_PHP_Jedi: have you followed the syntax that is here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[02:49] <cpk1> BENN92647: your name twice on all of them?
[02:49] <BENN92647> no
[02:49] <marx2k> rick8007,  which one
[02:49] <jrib> lhuynh: have you seen http://vpython.org/webdoc/visual/index.html and http://vpython.erikthompson.com/  ?
[02:49] <ubm> craigbass1976 you can get the scanner working
[02:49] <BENN92647> oh wait yes
[02:49] <BENN92647> sorry shiggity
[02:49] <ubm> need to search google :)
[02:49] <BENN92647> my name is on all of them twice
[02:49] <gili_> The_PHP_Jedi: your root (ubuntu) and your boot partition where grub will be installled according to you is the same
[02:49] <cpk1> and my name isnt shiggity
[02:49] <lhuynh> jrib: will go now. I couldn't reallly seem to find good vpython tutorials.
[02:50] <BENN92647> i think i screwed up the path name
[02:50] <The_PHP_Jedi> yes gili..
[02:50] <irunwithscissors> I HAVE THE ANSWER TO ALL OF YOUR QUESTIONS.   WWW.GOOGLE.COM
[02:50] <_Luks> how do i make sudo read the password from a variable ?
[02:50] <BENN92647> its not cdrom0
[02:50] <The_PHP_Jedi> gili: root (hd0) doesn't work
[02:50] <gili_> that is the only differene from that manual
[02:50] <h1st0> irunwithscissors: lol
[02:50] <The_PHP_Jedi> lol irunwithscissors
[02:50] <Matic`Makovec> !compiz > Matic`Makovec
[02:50] <irunwithscissors> :D
[02:50] <craigbass1976> ubm, Ok, googling is easier when I know there's not a dead end.  Thanks for letting me know there's an answer
[02:50] <marx2k> irunwithscissors, now if only you could be my personal 'search term' guru
[02:50] <jrib> lhuynh: I've viewed the first couple of videos ones, they are very straighforward and easy to follow.  do you already know python?
[02:50] <_Luks> how do i make sudo read the password from a variable ?
[02:50] <ubm> TheVault so now that we got your wireless card working i can safely assume you will never every again install windows on that machine :)
[02:50] <rick8007> ubuntu and a bcm4318 wireless card
[02:50] <cpk1> BENN92647: go into /media and find out what it is then
[02:50] <BENN92647> mine states C: is just cdrom
[02:50] <jrib> !jfgi | irunwithscissors
[02:50] <ubotu> irunwithscissors: Words like noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[02:50] <gili_> root (hd0,7)
[02:50] <BENN92647> ok
[02:50] <lhuynh> jrib: yes. just got back from pycon. :)
[02:50] <_Luks> how do i make sudo read the password from a variable ?
[02:50] <irunwithscissors> eh?
[02:50] <marx2k> also, I have a better answer, irunwithscissors ... www.google.com/linux
[02:51] <BENN92647> lol it says it a directory
[02:51] <TheVault> ubm: we got a problem
[02:51] <tunganet> omg..
[02:51] <bpcmiller> is there a linux eqivilant for magiciso?  I need to edit an iso to make it bootable
[02:51] <ubm> what
[02:51] <TheVault> I forgot to save our chat
[02:51] <The_PHP_Jedi> Error 21: Selected disk does not exist
[02:51] <TheVault> forgot to save the chat
[02:51] <eck> mytruehero: make sure you are running it as root, and choose the interface you are connected to the net with
[02:51] <mytruehero> eck: I'm running wireshark as root now, and have some more options. I think I can try to figure out how to get it working... let me brb and see what I can see
[02:51] <BENN92647> says:bash: /media: is a directory
[02:51] <mytruehero> eck: good idea :)
[02:51] <marx2k> bpcmiller, there's magicISO for linux
[02:51] <ubm> its ok just come back after you install of the live cd
[02:51] <marx2k> oh wait... im thinking powerISO
[02:51] <bpcmiller> lol that would work
[02:51] <mytruehero> eck: brb
[02:51] <_Luks> how do i make sudo read the password from a variable ?
[02:51] <TheVault> well how do I know if my wireless is up ubm?
[02:52] <jrib> lhuynh: ah then those docs should serve you well
[02:52] <gili_> what happens when you type "find /boot/grub/stage1"
[02:52] <cpk1> BENN92647: i know it is, 'cd /media' to go into it
[02:52] <irunwithscissors> hey tung
[02:52] <marx2k> TheVault, iwconfig
[02:52] <rick8007> Im typing from the wireless connection but theres no signal strength meter on my desktop task bar

[02:55] <TheVault> I will....someone is helping me
[02:55] <marx2k> !paste | TheVault
[02:56] <riotkittie> !pastebin | TheVault
[02:56] <ubotu> TheVault: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[02:56] <The_PHP_Jedi> ok..
[02:56] <toulouse> !ban
[02:56] <ubotu> If you have been banned it is probably because you have not gone along with what is acceptable behaviour. If you're not sure what acceptable behaviour is please see http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct/
[02:56] <BENN92647> what of you mean
[02:56] <COMMUNIST-POPE> Ban who?
[02:56] <irunwithscissors> he's obviously new, don't ban him...
[02:56] <The_PHP_Jedi> gili: I tried that, returns Error 15: File not found
[02:56] <synth> How can i blacklist a driver on boot for Ubuntu installation? having weird laptop hangs on ethernet and I'd like to get past it and install!
[02:56] <The_PHP_Jedi> irunwithscissors: anyone in IRC knows not to spam more than 5 lines

[02:56] <BENN92647> ubotu almos t banned me yesterday, i had to bribe him with candybars LOL
[02:56] <jrib> the comments about his paste contribute more spam than his actual paste... once one person lets him know that he shouldn't paste, that's enough really :)

[03:07] <_Krull_> Can I have ubuntu and Windows on my PC and have a choice of what to boot?
[03:07] <ubm> _Luks you could use a script to have the sudo pwd print to image
[03:07] <BENN92647> dam it!
[03:08] <eck> e.g. by getting something from the breezy repositories
[03:08] <Cyco> krull yes check guides for dual booting

[03:10] <ElllisD> tedu: whats up w/ yours? mine's got a desktop off the screen- the whole things scrolling
[03:10] <ScottLij> zithowa, that is the problem, it changed the hard drive names, the partitions aren't where grub thinks they are
[03:10] <cpk1> BENN92647: actually do 'ls -l .wine/drive_c/' and make sure you own everything
[03:11] <tedu> i need to get 100 at 1280

[03:12] <BENN92647> it went to the next line and froze
[03:12] <TheVault> ubm: now my internet is being a idiot
[03:12] <jrib> enix: is nautilus-data installed?

[03:12] <ubm> ramza3 did you add multiverse repositories?
[03:12] <ElllisD> tedu: I don't know off the top of my head, but I bet you could poke around in xorg.conf & find where it says 85's cool & add 100 in there
[03:12] <TheVault> won't let me get on websites but i am able to chathere
[03:12] <zithowa> ScottLij: I do not understand how the system derives hard drive names
[03:12] <ramza3> ubm: I havent but I can
[03:12] <ScottLij> zithowa, is there a different number of partitions on the new hard than the old one?
[03:12] <ubm> ramza3 you need to add those repos :)
[03:12] <enix> i dunno. like i said this is only a recent problem, how do i check

[03:18] <ubm> make sure your ethernet i.e. eth0 is down
[03:18] <Jake333> to make it work
[03:18] <Jake333> like whats a good resolution
[03:18] <Jake333> that wil work
[03:18] <ElllisD> tedu: did the @ do it?
[03:18] <Zambezi> Is it a bad idea to put IRC-server and printserver on a public webserver?
[03:18] <tedu> try this http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Edgy_Installation_Guide
[03:19] <tedu> but 2 nd metod
[03:19] <TheVault> is it good with the ethernet and wireless are both using dhcp
[03:19] <ubm> TheVault did you get it up?
[03:19] <crimsun> Zambezi: generally one would want a separation of orthogonal services/daemons, yes
[03:19] <enix> *jrib: my man. i cant wait til i have skills like the ones the people who help me do
[03:19] <tedu> w org ati drv
[03:19] <rjefferson> oh no, someone please help me
[03:19] <rjefferson> does anyone use lvm?
[03:19] <ubm> TheVault dosnt matter as long as eth0 is disabled when eth1 is enabled
[03:19] <Jake333> anyone help me?
[03:19] <TheVault> oh ok
[03:19] <TheVault> lemme do that now
[03:20] <Trelard> looks like feisty fawn herd 4 iso still hasn't fully fixed the AGP 8X issue
[03:20] <lmosher> Can anyone suggest a music program w/ really good visualizations (or a specific visualization)?
[03:20] <ubm> TheVault once we are finished im going to show you how to forward X to your windows machine so you can run apps from your ubuntu box on your windows machine
[03:20] <ElllisD> tedu: k, but what do you mean by 2nv?
[03:20] <Zambezi> crimsun, That's why I haven't installed it yet. But I'm not to happy to have five computer running 24/7 when I might have to pay the bill myself.
[03:20] <enix> jrib: i had to check the value, then uncheck it
[03:20] <tedu> second metod from guide
[03:20] <foormea> hey
[03:20] <tedu> download rpm
[03:21] <zithowa> ScottLij: thanks, that explains things very well
[03:21] <crimsun> Zambezi: then consider using VM images
[03:21] <ElllisD> tedu: this guide give me some newfound hope! tyvm!
[03:21] <TheVault> this is crazy
[03:21] <jrib> enix: k, make sure your upgrade has completed successfully
[03:21] <ramza3> ubm: if I use the gui way, can I just click 'multiverse'
[03:21] <Jake333> anyone help me
[03:21] <Jake333> ?
[03:21] <ElllisD> tedu: 2nd method- gotcha
[03:21] <tedu> then make debs
[03:21] <foormea> i don't understand why this:     conky &> /dev/pts/0 | tee conky.log &      doesn't work. it either redirects output to /dev/pts/0 but doesn't write conky.log
[03:21] <TheVault> for the address in Network Manager, it shows one min the wireless has the address DHCP and then a sec later it says this device needs configured
[03:21] <ScottLij> !ask | jake333
[03:21] <ubotu> jake333: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:21] <ubm> ramza3 yes
[03:21] <BENN92647> lol
[03:22] <ElllisD> tedu: make debs- sounds scary, but ill give it a shot
[03:22] <tedu> i ve problems w overscan
[03:22] <enix> jrib: i thought i had, is there a way to double check
[03:22] <TheVault> keeps switching back and forth
[03:22] <tedu> do u ve?
[03:22] <ElllisD> ve?
[03:22] <tedu> overscan on tv?
[03:22] <ElllisD> ???
[03:22] <ubm> TheVault what does the adapter?
[03:22] <Zambezi> crimsun, I might do. But can I have a webserver and virtual computer on a P3 550 with 512 MB ram or should I add 256 MB? Both computers running Dapper drake without X.
[03:22] <jrib> enix: just run dist-upgrade again and make sure ubuntu-desktop is installed
[03:22] <ubm> TheVault sudo ifconfig eth0 down
[03:23] <tedu> see u :)
[03:23] <tedu> i ll try
[03:23] <ElllisD> tedu: is overscan what this scrolling desktop is?
[03:23] <TheVault> still crazy
[03:24] <enix> jrib: k, thanks a bunch man
[03:24] <ubm> TheVault did you remove the ethernet cable from your ethernet device?
[03:24] <metalhedd> i just installed 6.10 and am doing the 137 available updates. its been Setting up capplets-data for close to ten minutes now.. this doesn't seem right, is it stuck?
[03:24] <ST47> Hi guys
[03:24] <ST47> I have a friend who just installed ubuntu
[03:24] <ST47> and when he boots, the screen goes all wreid
[03:24] <ubm> if you disable in the network manager it will not re-enable the device ;)
[03:25] <BENN92647> ok just ran into a guy that says dont even bother installing GW's on linux you'll just get pissed at linux
[03:25] <rjefferson> would someone send me the pv programs?
[03:25] <rjefferson> i can barely boot right now
[03:25] <metalhedd> GW's?
[03:25] <marx2k> guild wars
[03:25] <BENN92647> he had it installed and spent most of the days getting the patches to work in linux
[03:25] <ubm> TheVault issue this command then pastebin  sudo iwconfig
[03:25] <BENN92647> guild wars
[03:25] <metalhedd> oh
[03:25] <nexous> Where can I find the files of bluefish, besides /home/USERNAME/.bluefish ?
[03:25] <ElllisD> metalhedd: mine hung at a number of points, but not 10 mins- on a dual 850 w/ 1G
[03:26] <Intelligitimate> Anyone know what went wrong with Firefox with the latest update?
[03:26] <BENN92647> best thing to do is a dual boot looks like
[03:26] <BENN92647> but i dont want to
[03:26] <metalhedd> ElllisD: i jhit ctrl+c and it said error procecessing gnome-control-center, dependency problems. now its carrying on with the rest.
[03:26] <lmosher> Can anyone suggest a music program w/ really good visualizations (or a specific visualization)?
[03:26] <metalhedd> should I do something afterwards to have it clean up whatever just happened?
[03:26] <BENN92647> so now that that nightmare is over LOL
[03:27] <ElllisD> metalhedd: dpkg --configure -a
[03:27] <BENN92647> i can play tweak LINUX
[03:27] <Intelligitimate> I just downloaded the update to Firefox, and now I can't click on anything. I can't right click to download stuff, I can't click on any menu options, etc.
[03:27] <BENN92647> firefox plug ins are created by satan
[03:27] <metalhedd> ElllisD: thanks. now its failing a bunch of others because the control center isn't configured.
[03:27] <xamox> What package do I need to isntall to get java SWT support?
[03:27] <ElllisD> Intelligitimate: Can you click other stuff? just firefox doesnt listen to mouse?
[03:28] <Intelligitimate> Yeah.
[03:28] <ubm> Intelligitimate did you restart firefox or shut it down completely after updates?
[03:28] <Intelligitimate> Firefox doesn't listen to the mouse, except like clicking a link. No right-clicking, no menu clicking, etc.
[03:28] <enix> will apt-get install kde get me a kde WM along w/ gnome
[03:28] <Intelligitimate> Yeah, I think so.
[03:28] <Intelligitimate> I may need to restart the whole system.
[03:28] <metalhedd> enix: i think its apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[03:28] <crimsun> Zambezi: the more RAM the better
[03:28] <ubm> Intelligitimate ps -ax is it running now?
[03:28] <BENN92647> hey cpk1 wanted to thank you again for putting in the time to help me with guild wars, but even if i did install it it would have been a hassle
[03:29] <Intelligitimate> I have restarted it a bunch of times, ubm.
[03:29] <enix> that wont do a fresh install, just the WM, right?
[03:29] <metalhedd> enix: right
[03:29] <jmworx> tritium_: any news of Speex on Dapper 64?
[03:29] <enix> metalhead: thanks
[03:29] <BENN92647> maybe i can get asteriods to work LMAO
[03:29] <metalhedd> enix: n/p
[03:29] <ElllisD> l8r- dinnertime
[03:30] <enix> metalhead: can i do the same w/ fluxbox
[03:30] <metalhedd> enix: yeah, probably just apt-get install fluxbox
[03:30] <enix> metalhead: coolbeans
[03:30] <metalhedd> enix kde is the only one with its own "meta-package"
[03:30] <ScottLij> `1234567890-[poiuytrewqsdfghjkl;'
[03:30] <metalhedd> if you will
[03:31] <Zambezi> crimsun, 768 MB ram for two computer without X. It should be fine or I can buy another 256 MB, but not now.
[03:31] <ScottLij> oops
[03:31] <enix> metalhead: ok
[03:31] <enix> metalhead: not entirley sure what that means, but i will look it up
[03:31] <metalhedd> the package "kubuntu-desktop" is really just a list of a ton of other kde packages that will be installed.
[03:32] <nexous> Where can I find the files of bluefish, besides /home/USERNAME/.bluefish ?
[03:32] <metalhedd> most other WM's are small enough that they're just 1 package.
[03:32] <adam_> I can't access my samba shares from network neighborhood.  I've even duplicated a working smb.cfg from another computer, but to no avail.  What else could be wrong?
[03:32] <enix> metalhead: but i have to select kde form sessions at login right, will be like a whole new desktop
[03:33] <got_a_bean> nexous: did you try the locate command in the terminal?
[03:33] <enix> metalhead: *from
[03:33] <nexous> got_a_bean: no, how do I do that?
[03:33] <ST47>  from grub, I need a command prompt
[03:33] <R[a] ndom> locate .bluefish
[03:33] <ST47> how?
[03:33] <nexous> okay thanks.
[03:33] <got_a_bean> nexous:  in the terminal just type:  locate .bluefish
[03:34] <got_a_bean> or locate bluefish  (no dot)
[03:34] <metalhedd> enix: Right-o.. after installing kubuntu-desktop your login screen will probably switch from gdm to kdm.  not sure off hand how to switch it back,  but they're both pretty much the same anyway.
[03:34] <got_a_bean> It should find anything with bluefish in the name
[03:34] <enix> metalhead: i can live w/ that
[03:34] <got_a_bean> and tell you where the results are located
[03:35] <metalhedd> enix: actually if I remember correctly, after installing kubuntu-desktop it will ask you which login manager you want to use.
[03:35] <Cyco> etc/X11/default-display-manager
[03:35] <obake-san> hey, when i try to install a tar.gz, i get an error
[03:35] <Cyco> change above to gdm/kdm
[03:35] <obake-san> i do a tar -xzf
[03:35] <metalhedd> obake-san: you dont just "install" a tar.gz
[03:35] <metalhedd> :)
[03:35] <enix> metalhead: o- i cant wait to try it, gettin kinda bored w/ gnome
[03:35] <obake-san> then when i try to ./configure
[03:36] <obake-san> it goes through some things
[03:36] <obake-san> and errors saying it cant create executables or something
[03:36] <m_> hello, my swap isn't working. I've unmounted, reformatted, and re-mounted and enabled "swapon" and it still shows no usage. When I use command line I get: m@m-desktop:~$ sudo swapon /dev/sda1
[03:36] <m_> swapon: /dev/sda1: Device or resource busy
[03:36] <metalhedd> obake-san: you probably need to install "build-essential"
[03:37] <goetiaoccultus> whats  a good periodic viewer for ubuntu ?
[03:37] <duderdo> hey
[03:37] <goetiaoccultus> periodic table*
[03:37] <obake-san> build-essential, il check it out
[03:37] <eck> m_: check the output of free
[03:37] <duderdo> how do I list the files' whole path with ls? for instance "/home/duderdo/foo" instead of just "foo"
[03:37] <ScottLij> off topic but:  how do I save my channel list in XChat?
[03:37] <anewbie> Hello there... (I just don't know if I'm allowed to ask questions... I haven't registered yet... can't find where is "/motd." can anyone help? thanks. )
[03:38] <m_> m@m-desktop:~$ free
[03:38] <m_>              total       used       free     shared    buffers     cached
[03:38] <m_> Mem:       1555492    1480636      74856          0      51676    1011928
[03:38] <m_> -/+ buffers/cache:     417032    1138460
[03:38] <m_> Swap:      4192956      39640    4153316
[03:38] <eck> m_: you are using your swap
[03:38] <m_> thanks, i see that. don't know what happened. thanks :)
[03:38] <goetiaoccultus> ScottLij click xchat on menu , then network list , then click edit
[03:38] <metalhedd> is it safe to edit menu.lst or is there some ubuntu method to remove all those extra entries in the grub menu
[03:39] <Cyco> it is safe to edit it
[03:39] <eck> m_: i think it used to be the case that swap was shown by mount but it no longer is
[03:39] <duderdo> how do I list the files' whole path with ls? for instance "/home/duderdo/foo" instead of just "foo"
[03:39] <jo3_> man ls
[03:40] <got_a_bean> anewbie: where are you looking for /motd?
[03:40] <duderdo> obviously I already read the manual, I guess they're using a different language than me, I can't find it. hence I am asking in here
[03:40] <scizzy> ok I know you guys have probably heard this a million time, but I just installed ubuntu literally 10 min ago, and I can't get my wireless (broadcom) to connect to my unsecured linksys router
[03:40] <eck> i don't think you can do it with ls
[03:40] <metalhedd> does ubuntu include grub spash images?
[03:40] <eck> you can do it with find, or just use ls -l in conjunction with pwd
[03:41] <duderdo> eck: thank you
[03:41] <scizzy> i type in linksys in the ssid, activate, but then it wont connect, and I can't pick it in the icon in the top right
[03:41] <duderdo> jo3_: sounds like you have no fucking idea what you're talking about! hah!
[03:41] <anewbie> got_a_bean... it says "This channel requires that you have registered and identified yourself with the network's nickname registration services (e.g. NickServ). Please see the documentation of this network's nickname registration services that should be found in the MOTD (/motd to display it)."
[03:41] <Cyco> sudo apt-cache search grub | grep splash
[03:41] <Cyco> pretty boring defaults, look through forums on how to create/download new ones
[03:41] <metalhedd> Cyco: nopers
[03:41] <Cyco> you have extra repos enabled?
[03:41] <metalhedd> oh, i didn't enable the good repos.
[03:41] <metalhedd> :O
[03:42] <Madpilot> ubotu, register | anewbie
[03:42] <ubotu> anewbie: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[03:42] <scizzy> anyone know how to refresh wireless ssid's  to see which one my wireless card finds...
[03:42] <got_a_bean> anewbie - oh, don't worry about that.  You don't have to register your nickname - only if you want it reserved for you alone
[03:42] <metalhedd> been a while since i used ubuntu
[03:42] <Cyco> iwlist scan for wireless
[03:42] <Madpilot> got_a_bean, some channels require registration for entry, actually.
[03:42] <Q_Continuum_> Okay.  Trying to install Ubuntu on a laptop with no optical drive and no floppy (I have a floppy drive available, if need be) tried doing the netboot install from here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromWindows for XP, but it wanted to load the CD-ROM drivers, and I couldn't bypass that. *making another attempt now to bypass the CD-ROM and do a netinstall*
[03:42] <Trelard> Ubuntu Feisty Fawn looks decent
[03:42] <scizzy> how to i use iwlist... I'm so new i just converted from windows
[03:43] <Cyco> open a terminal
[03:43] <got_a_bean> well, yes, but not this one. :-)
[03:43] <Cyco> type iwlist scan  - you may have to specify your wireless interface
[03:43] <eck> scizzy: iwlist scanning eth1
[03:43] <eck> or something like that
[03:43] <scizzy> ok let me try
[03:43] <Cyco> are you using knetworkmanager ?
[03:43] <got_a_bean> anewbie: which irc client are you using?
[03:43] <scizzy> sorry for my newbishness... but I like the simplicity...
[03:44] <goetiaoccultus> whats  a good periodic table viewer for ubuntu ?
[03:44] <sbrath> I've got the latest ubuntu server edition loaded on a AMD board, and after apt-get'ing gcc-4.1   compiling generates gibberish??? WTF?
[03:44] <eck> goetiaoccultus: your web browser
[03:44] <perrone> how can i change my home folder
[03:44] <perrone> ?
[03:44] <eck> or a pdf viewer
[03:44] <Madpilot> sbrath, did you use the build-essential package to get *all* of the basic build tools?
[03:44] <eck> perrone: it is configured in /etc/passwd
[03:44] <eck> just be careful
[03:44] <jrib> perrone: or use usermod
[03:44] <sbrath> Madpilot: let me check, is that apt-get build-essentials
[03:45] <scizzy> my eth1 says "no scan results" but im right next to my router, and it worked when I had windows
[03:45] <Madpilot> sbrath, 'sudo apt-get install build-essential
[03:45] <joeyk_> eth1 is not a wlan interface
[03:45] <ffxr> perrone its in users&groups->advanced
[03:45] <anewbie> ah... okay. thanks... guys. anyway, my question is this... until recently, I still can sudo from a terminal. now I get this message "sudo: unable to lookup edubuntu via gethostbyname()". anybody know what happened? thanks.
[03:45] <perrone> eck, i know that, but i tried to change it to /media/sdb5/rafaelperrone and i couldnt log in anymore
[03:45] <scizzy> its the default "linksys"
[03:45] <Cyco> no
[03:45] <timfrost> metalhedd: if the extra entries are older kernels, then you can remove the kernel packages (eg I have linux-image-2.6.17-10-generic and linux-image-2.6.17-11-generic, so can do 'sudo apt-get remove linux-image-2.6.17-10-generic linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17-10-generic').  That will clean up the grub menu
[03:45] <Cyco> try iwlist scan
[03:45] <Cyco> with no interface
[03:45] <anewbie> got_a_bean... I'm using chatzilla
[03:45] <scizzy> i did
[03:45] <Cyco> if no work do ifconfig and what are your interfaces listed
[03:45] <sbrath> Madpilot: That's loaded now, but still gibberish
[03:45] <Freeman> Uhh i have a question: i just installed ubuntu and my wireless doesnt seem to be working
[03:46] <Freeman> I had to go hardline
[03:46] <scizzy> this is what it said...iwlist scan
[03:46] <scizzy> lo        Interface doesn't support scanning.
[03:46] <scizzy> eth0      Interface doesn't support scanning.
[03:46] <scizzy> eth1      No scan results
[03:46] <scizzy> sit0      Interface doesn't support scanning.
[03:46] <Madpilot> ubotu, paste | scizzy
[03:46] <ubotu> scizzy: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[03:46] <joeyk_> you dont have a wireless interface
[03:46] <eck> yes, it is eth1
[03:46] <MadP3nGu1n> you might have to enable it
[03:46] <eck> scizzy: maybe the wireless driver isn't working?
[03:46] <Madpilot> sbrath, odd. I avoid compiling like the plague, but installing b-e generally gets things working. What're you looking for that isn't in the repos?
[03:46] <got_a_bean> Oooooh, I haven't figured that one out yet.  But when you sign on you should have the option, in Chatzilla, to register.  Sorry, can'
[03:46] <scizzy> whats wierd is when I enable it, then press OK... it doesn't enable ... i have to go in ad enable it again
[03:47] <sbrath> Madpilot: NoCat.NET
[03:47] <craigbass1976> ubm, did scnning with your cx6000 involve iscan?
[03:47] <Cyco> what wireless card do you have?
[03:47] <got_a_bean> can't remember the exact location of the menus on chatzilla.
[03:47] <MadP3nGu1n> system/admin/networking
[03:47] <scizzy> maybe, but I dont know how to get it to work, and get new drivers(install them)
[03:47] <scizzy> i have broadcom
[03:47] <anewbie> got_a_bean... I recently installed sun jre 5.
[03:47] <scizzy> not sure what model
[03:47] <eck> eww
[03:47] <Cyco> mdoel?
[03:47] <Cyco> lspci
[03:47] <scizzy> the one with my stupid emachines m5405 laptop
[03:47] <Cyco> do an lspci
[03:48] <got_a_bean> anewbie:  wow - I haven't even used that yet.
[03:48] <sbrath> Madpilot: When I check I have gcc-3.4 4.0 and 4.1 all loaded... should I remove the old ones?
[03:48] <scizzy> what is lspci?
[03:48] <Cyco> list pci devices
[03:48] <joeyk_> lists pci devices
[03:48] <joeyk_> lol
[03:48] <joeyk_> jinx
[03:48] <Madpilot> sbrath, shouldn't be needed, gcc can co-exist from what I've read.
[03:48] <scizzy> haha ok let me see
[03:48] <eck> sbrath: no, i would keep them around, some apps will depend on specific versions of gcc to compile correctly
[03:48] <Cyco> hahah
[03:48] <got_a_bean> anewbie:  do you have xchat?
[03:48] <goetiaoccultus> thanks eck but someone pointed me to software called Kalziem
[03:48] <eck> actually, some configure scripts will check the version of gcc
[03:48] <scizzy> Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller
[03:48] <goetiaoccultus> kalzium*
[03:48] <Freeman> also i cant increase the resolution up to 1280x800 so im stuck at 1024x768
[03:49] <scizzy> whats what i have
[03:49] <sbrath> eck: So what other magic pill can I look at to see why it generates garbage? cpp seems to process the .c files corectly
[03:49] <anewbie> got_a_bean, well I really have to, since I need this texting feature of www.chikka.com... for javalite. No, I don't have xchat. I have gaim instead.
[03:49] <eck> you mean gcc?
[03:49] <sbrath> yes
[03:49] <eck> what error?
[03:49] <scizzy> also, when I click "activate" on my wireless connection it takes FOREVER... and now it says active... but the computer icon in the top right doesn't let me select eth1
[03:50] <eck> goetiaoccultus: then use that? I would just use a web browser though

[03:52] <ubotu> Freeman: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:52] <eck> perrone: so it works now?
[03:52] <Cyco> freeman did you add the resolution to xorg.conf
[03:52] <Freeman> did i do what?
[03:52] <Cyco> cd /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:52] <Cyco> look in there
[03:52] <anewbie> guys... does it mean, I have to reinstall? I can't gain access to any of my administrative functions. I also can't get to root when I give the command "su", it says wrong password. I suspect my system has been hacked. anyone? thanks.

[03:53] <joeyk_> and you have a root pw?
[03:53] <Cyco> vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf sorry

[03:53] <erpo> lmosher: Last time I checked, winamp ran fine under wine in linux. And it has some good plugins.
[03:53] <eck> anewbie: use the rescue option in grub, or if you removed it, add single to the end of the grub kernel line
[03:53] <craigbass1976> where's the epkowa site I keep reading about?

[03:54] <Cyco> then sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart
[03:55] <eck> sbrath: it might be a locales issue
[03:55] <Cyco> use nano or vi

[03:55] <joeyk_> :)
[03:55] <eck> i am not sure how you would fix that though
[03:55] <Cyco> yes or joe LOL
[03:55] <sbrath> eck: how would I check that?
[03:55] <eck> anewbie: reboot, and in grub choose the option that says rescue
[03:55] <fenixarg> how can i install some plug-ins for firefox?
[03:55] <Jake333> idk how to
[03:55] <Jake333> lol
[03:55] <Jake333> like use em
[03:56] <rich__> i'm thinking of a project, can anyone give advice etc?
[03:56] <eck> sbrath: i would check the file encoding of the .c file and make sure it is ascii, i am not sure how you would do that though
[03:56] <joeyk_> the command would be vi /etc/xorg.conf
[03:56] <rich__> i have bought a network client very basic spec pc
[03:56] <eck> i think you can have it displayed by most text editors
[03:56] <joeyk_> err..

[03:56] <rich__> i want to get this pc to boot into ubuntu, via network boot

[03:58] <mbutUbuntu01> but if I write fglrx in xorg.conf
[03:58] <rich__> my main concern about setting this up, is that the server will have to be on all the time
[03:58] <mbutUbuntu01> the graphic server doesn' start
[03:58] <BENN92648> is beryl better? i have an NVidia 6700 GS i think

[03:58] <rich__> i am hoping i can set it up to turn off and on with the client
[03:58] <eck> sbrath: the locale stuff is in LANG and the LC_ environment variables... i was just thinking though, i could see gcc getting tripped up if the file encoding is wrong, or else have the output of gcc mangled if it is using a different locale then you
[03:58] <rich__> ?
[03:58] <MbV93> i dunno
[03:59] <MbV93> they're practically the same

[03:59] <eck> rich__: you can also mount the root filesystem over nfs
[03:59] <eck> both options are complicated
[03:59] <mbutUbuntu01> can someone help me??
[03:59] <Pelo> cabuloso,  I thjink that's tango, it's in the basic themes that come with ubuntu
[04:00] <rich__> thankyou :)
[04:00] <MbV93> yes i'll help you
[04:00] <mbutUbuntu01> thanks
[04:00] <sbrath> eck: I think what I need to do is "Remove" locales, so all I have is en_US.utf8
[04:00] <MbV93> well i'll try
[04:00] <cabuloso> Pelo, it's not tango, it's some mod of it...
[04:00] <mbutUbuntu01> MbV93, what can I do??
[04:00] <Pelo> mbutUbuntu01,  can you give us a little more info
[04:00] <mbutUbuntu01> ok

[04:01] <mbutUbuntu01> I have an ati graphic card
[04:01] <p47> hey do you have some question on the table/clear
[04:01] <Pelo> cabuloso,  check synaptic for gnome art , or art gnome, or gnome art manager or something similar , it gives you access to a bunch of other themes
[04:01] <COMMUNIST-POPE> Can you run ubuntu off a usb? i got a extra 6GB
[04:01] <Pelo> mbutUbuntu01,  I think you are better off checking the forum
[04:01] <eck> gcc uses utf-8 by default though
[04:01] <cabuloso> Pelo, ok, tanks..
[04:01] <eck> i have no clue
[04:01] <Pelo> COMMUNIST-POPE,  yes,  check the forum for an how to , I knwo there is stuff on that

[04:02] <mbutUbuntu01> if I set in the xorg.conf ati driver, X11 works, instead if I set fglrx driver X11 doesn't work
[04:02] <mbutUbuntu01> why??
[04:02] <Q_Continuum_> I need help installing Ubuntu on a laptop with NO optical drive.  Won't boot from USB. Instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromWindows fail.
[04:02] <mbutUbuntu01> Pelo, what??
[04:02] <Pelo> mbutUbuntu01,  because you con'T have a fglrx card ? maybe
[04:02] <TomSwift> anyone have tips for dealing with ipv6/ipv4 problems in ubuntu?
[04:02] <farous> any command line to check if the port is actually opened ? port 27000@localhost
[04:02] <Q_Continuum_> I have an external USB floppy drive available, if needed.  wired network and flash drives are available.
[04:02] <h1st0> farous: netstat
[04:02] <CarlFK> I have a cd with squashfs.img - is there some way to mount -o loop that?  my try says ioctl: LOOP_CLR_FD: Device or resource busy/mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[04:02] <mbutUbuntu01> Pelo, but fglrx is for ati video cards
[04:02] <MbV93> I'M SEXY
[04:02] <MbV93> I'M SEXY
[04:02] <rbil> mbutUbuntu01: or didn't install the proprietary driver?

[04:03] <BENN92648> anyone here know if I install and IDE hard drive with windows XP and select it as  my second IDE master will I be able to boot into it if LINUX is on my sata drive as a master?
[04:03] <eck> Q_Continuum_: you can try to pxeboot, but i have not done this successfully
[04:03] <Pelo> !op
[04:03] <ubotu> Help! Mez, LjL, elkbuntu, imbrandon, DBO, gnomefreak, Hobbsee, rob, ompaul, Madpilot, Burgundavia, Seveas, CarlK, crimsun, ajmitch, tritium, Nalioth, thoreauputic, apokryphos or tonyyarusso
[04:03] <farous> h1st0, thanx
[04:03] <Mez> Madpilot, too quick for me
[04:03] <Hobbsee> and me
[04:03] <Q_Continuum_> eck: looking for a faster solution, I don't have a *nix box set up to do the hosting :-/ All I have here is a 64-bit install of XP Pro.
[04:03] <Madpilot> Hobbsee, quicker than the Pointy Hobbsee of Doom? Amazing! ;)
[04:03] <BENN92648> anyone here know if I install and IDE hard drive with windows XP and select it as  my second IDE master will I be able to boot into it if LINUX is on my sata drive as a master?
[04:04] <Hobbsee> Madpilot: i dont have scripts.
[04:04] <farous> h1st0, i need a command line to find if the port is open and ready to connect not if it is connecting to something right now
[04:04] <Pelo> BENN92648,  I have that setup on my comp and it works fine , just set the drive you want to boot from in your bios and let grub do the rest
[04:04] <eck> Q_Continuum_: tbh, i think you are best off removing the drive, installing on another computer, and then replacing it again
[04:04] <Madpilot> Hobbsee, no? Which IRC client?
[04:04] <farous> h1st0, the command returned nothing so no active connection. I need to make sure that it is not closed
[04:04] <Q_Continuum_> eck: Crap. Laptop with the HD below everything else in the case :-/
[04:04] <BENN92648> oh cool so it will show in the boot drive menu HDD0 and then an HDD01
[04:04] <metalhedd> Ok, I just switched my server from gentoo to ubuntu, I used to be able to mount my samba shares without a password but I can't now. :( where do I configure this?
[04:04] <Hobbsee> Madpilot: konversation
[04:05] <TomSwift> any tips on about:blank problem with firefox on ubuntu?
[04:05] <h1st0> farous: well if you netstat -a it should spew out everything.
[04:05] <eck> Q_Continuum_: i am not sure if it is possible to install grub from windows, if it is then there is a method using that
[04:05] <Madpilot> Hobbsee, and it has no kool skripts to klobber trolls with?
[04:05] <h1st0> metalhedd: in /etc/samba/smb.conf
[04:05] <h1st0> metalhedd: you need to change the settings for the share.
[04:05] <farous> h1st0, it gave me nothing I think as nothing is connecting through that port
[04:05] <Q_Continuum_> eck: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromWindows has instructions, but they crap out when it wants to partition :(
[04:05] <metalhedd> h1st0: theres no ubuntu gui for that eh?
[04:05] <metalhedd> :(
[04:05] <Hobbsee> Madpilot: no, not really
[04:05] <Pelo> BENN92648,  I don't know about that part but I I have  and IDE for my winxp and a sata for linux and I boot from the sata with grub and I can boot my winxp from grub when I need it
[04:05] <joeyk_> TomSwift, whats the prob?
[04:05] <ross> hi. KDE hides my "home" and "trash" icons. How do I stop it doing that?
[04:05] <h1st0> farous: something should come up if you netstat -a
[04:06] <h1st0> metalhedd: i'm sure there is but I just use smb.conf on the samba server.
[04:06] <BENN92648> how do you switch back and forth?
[04:06] <h1st0> metalhedd: most servers don't have gui
[04:06] <farous> i got all my connections :) i know how to use netstat -tup too
[04:06] <Madpilot> Hobbsee, how do KDE channel ops deal with Gnome users, then? ;)
[04:06] <eck> Q_Continuum_: are you using the grub from dos option?
[04:06] <BENN92648> im really new to the whole dual boot thing
[04:06] <Q_Continuum_> eck: grub
[04:06] <rich__> eck it reads to me like a method to install linux to the client machine over a network
[04:06] <joeyk_> you have to reboot to load the other os
[04:07] <BENN92648> ugh
[04:07] <Q_Continuum_> eck: I'm installing from XP
[04:07] <BENN92648> that sucks
[04:07] <Hobbsee> Madpilot: oh i can kickban, and all that, and have various things, but not the instant way that you do, all prewritten.  ie, it's like xchat with no chanserv.py
[04:07] <rich__> i was hoping the os could be executed on the server not the client
[04:07] <eck> rich__: you can have the kernel on the server
[04:07] <metalhedd> h1st0: i thought it might be do-able through the 'shared folders' since that's how I set up the share in the first place.  i'm not sure the setting i'm looking for to have a no-password access.. could you maybe enlighten me? security=none or something?
[04:07] <farous> ok here is another question can I ping a specific port on my localhost ?
[04:07] <eck> rich__: the client loads the kernel from the server (using pxe), and from there you can have the kernel load the filesystem over the network, or whatever you want to do
[04:07] <Pelo> BENN92648,  if you are talking to me state my name please ,   I installed windows first making sure that I have the ide set as boot drive in the bios,  when that was done I changed the boot drive in the bios to the sata and installed ubuntu,  when installing ubuntu grub found I had a windows install and made a menu to chose from at boot so I could select which os to boot,   If I need to go from one to the other, I just reboot and select the o
[04:07] <Pelo> ther one
[04:07] <h1st0> metalhedd: I believ you want security=share  instead of user
[04:08] <BENN92648> so i have to log out of linux go into bios reset boot priorty?
[04:08] <h1st0> metalhedd: make sure you remove the ; in front of it too.
[04:08] <joeyk_> BENN92648, no you should have a boot loader to choose the os
[04:08] <h1st0> metalhedd: let me get a good tutorial that will explain the smb.conf better.
[04:08] <metalhedd> h1st0: much appreciated
[04:08] <rich__> so the client still has to be capable of running the kernel
[04:08] <eck> Q_Continuum_: yes, but did you get grub installed? the instructions are on that page
[04:08] <BENN92648> ok pelo thank you
[04:08] <Pelo> BENN92648,  no you don'T  you just need to reboot the computer and you avhe a boot menu
[04:08] <h1st0> metalhedd: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#Samba_Server
[04:09] <eck> rich__: ???
[04:09] <h1st0> metalhedd: I think you want read/write authentication=no
[04:09] <Q_Continuum_> eck: Yes, I can run it fine - but when it gets to the partitioner it bails.
[04:09] <h1st0> metalhedd: should be security = share
[04:09] <eck> Q_Continuum_: in the ubuntu installer?
[04:09] <Q_Continuum_> eck: No root filesystem is defined. Please correct this from the partition menu <Go Back> <Continue> *Selects "Go Back" and gets stuck in a loop with this menu*
[04:09] <Q_Continuum_> eck: yes, the last line is the error I get.
[04:09] <Q_Continuum_> eck: regardless of the partitioning option I get.
[04:09] <ComputerHermit> can I use apt-get security update?
[04:10] <robbie_crash> who here is familiar with gtkpod?
[04:10] <TheDebugger> me
[04:10] <rich__> i was hoping, all the client machine would have to do is relay inputs to the server and output to the monitor, shifting all of the emphasis onto the server.
[04:10] <concept10> is there a way to turn this autoremove stuff off?
[04:10] <robbie_crash> TheDebugger:  I'm getting an error when adding directories that says that files don't exist
[04:10] <eck> rich__: then it will be easiest to just install linux on the client and use something like ltsp
[04:10] <BENN92648> Pelo-oh, ok well right now i am looking to put the 40G and 80G IDE hard drives in my computer, when I do this i start up my computer go into bios and set the IDE with XP as my boot drive am I right so far?
[04:10] <lunux> ff
[04:11] <eck> Q_Continuum_: try the netinstall kernel
[04:11] <robbie_crash> that's a blatant lie, what can I do to get around it?
[04:11] <eck> Q_Continuum_: let me find the link
[04:11] <h1st0> concept10: what auto remove stuff?
[04:11] <Q_Continuum_> eck: something like this? http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/breezy/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/ubuntu-installer/i386/
[04:11] <Pelo> BENN92648,  just while you install windows,
[04:11] <concept10> h1st0, apt-get autoremove
[04:11] <h1st0> concept10: What do you want to do?
[04:11] <eck> Q_Continuum_: yes, you want the boot.iso file (~8 mb)
[04:11] <BENN92648> pelo-XP is alreay installed on the IDE drives
[04:12] <metalhedd> h1st0: i dont see any such authentication option... i set security=share but the default config doesn't mention read write authentication anywhere
[04:12] <eck> use the kernel and initrd in the iso
[04:12] <TheDebugger> robbie_crash: Never had that kind of errors :( Only for the album arts
[04:12] <concept10> h1st0, I want to turn it off
[04:12] <Q_Continuum_> eck: where do I put that?
[04:12] <Pelo> BENN92648,  then you donT' have to do that,  set your boot drive to sata and install ubuntu on it ,  the installation will take care of the rest
[04:12] <eck> oh, i guess you can just use the vmlinuz and initrd.img there
[04:12] <concept10> h1st0, I dont want autoremove to remind me of that
[04:12] <h1st0> metalhedd: You can specify down at the folder.  If you see the link I sent you hwoto share a public folder with read/write authentication=no
[04:12] <robbie_crash> TheDebugger: :( bummer
[04:12] <h1st0> concept10: well then run sudo apt-get autoremove
[04:12] <Q_Continuum_> eck: I also used the feisty version, think that would break it?
[04:12] <h1st0> concept10: to fix it.
[04:13] <eck> Q_Continuum_: so you have grub boot with that kernel and initrd, and the network installer should be not broken
[04:13] <concept10> h1st0, never mind - youre not getting it
[04:13] <h1st0> concept10: No, I'm not I can't see your screen so I don't know what you are trying to do.
[04:13] <eck> well use the netinstall kernel for whatever release you want to install, the feisty netinstall could be broken though
[04:13] <BENN92648> Pelo-ok i have ubuntu on my sata right now so i will install the IDE drives in my computer then turn on the computer and I will have a list of what I wante to boot into, am i correct?
[04:13] <Q_Continuum_> eck: options for partitioning method: "0" "Guided - resize net-retriever and use freed space" "Guided - use entire disk" "Guided - use entire disk and set up LVM"
[04:14] <robbie_crash> I'm getting so many weird errors "File type known but analysis failed" on mp3s, valid files that I can play saying they're non-existant
[04:14] <h1st0> concept10: from the brief bit you've told me I assume its because you are getting a message to run apt-get autoremove.  Well if you run it that message will go away.
[04:14] <metalhedd> h1st0: oh I didn't see the link. thanks
[04:14] <Q_Continuum_> eck: any option results in the error :-/
[04:14] <concept10> h1st0, I said - "I want to turn it off"  That means I don't want it to manage my packages in this way.
[04:14] <h1st0> metalhedd: yeah you should be able to specify fmask and dmask I believ in theer or something similiar.
[04:14] <h1st0> concept10: ahh. Well you could flag the packages it wants to remove to keep them.
 i have checked the client spec is NeoLinux
[04:14] <eck> Q_Continuum_: i am not really familiar with the text installer. you can get another kernel that lets you boot from a live cd with a better partitioning tool to do the partitioning beforehand though
[04:15] <joeyk_> BENN92648, thats right
[04:15] <h1st0> concept10: but as far as turning that feature off I dunno if there is a config for apt-get
[04:15] <Pelo> BENN92648,  ok , in that case : no you won'T because GRUB won't have checked your system for other operatiing systems at install , but you can add the entry so it will boot windows,  , just install your stata drive , boot, come back here from the ubuntu, and I will tell you what to add to your grub menu and how
[04:15] <eck> Q_Continuum_: e.g. it is possible to use this method to boot a real live cd
[04:15] <h1st0> !codecs | robbie_crash
[04:15] <ubotu> robbie_crash: 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
[04:15] <joeyk_> ahh.. i see
[04:15] <h1st0> robbie_crash: restricted formats being what you want.
[04:15] <Q_Continuum_> eck: as in from an image off a USB drive for example? I can do that, it just can't boot from the USB flash drive directly.
[04:16] <BENN92648> pelo- i am ready
[04:16] <eck> Q_Continuum_: i believe so
[04:16] <Q_Continuum_> eck: any idea where to look?
[04:16] <Pelo> BENN92648,  ok , we'll do this in pm if you don'T mind,
[04:16] <eck> Q_Continuum_: you need to set up grub to be able to see the other device
[04:16] <Drkepilogue> Hi, i am wondering  how good is the wireless support in Ubuntu.  I used the live cd, but was not able to try out the internet..(is it normal??)
[04:16] <BENN92648> K
[04:16] <robbie_crash> h1st0: it's not a codec issue I don't think, cause I can play mp3s, and aac files and all the rest, and it's not all of the files gtkpod is importing, it's sporadic, not even whole directories, only certain files within them
[04:16] <eck> drop into the grub shell in windows
[04:16] <concept10> h1st0, the reason why is this, I remove a package from the xubuntu-desktop meta-package, for example like gnumeric, and autoremove reminds me everytime to remove the rest of the xubuntu-desktop
[04:16] <BENN92648> how do i PM
[04:16] <lunux> help me,please.I want to go into china-ubuntu
[04:17] <jediborger> does anyone here have experience with editing the sudoers file?
[04:17] <h1st0> concept10: There is no way to fix that. xubuntu-desktp is just a meta package and doesn't containt anything.
[04:17] <preaction> concept10: it's reminding you to remove the meta-package itself, not all the packages it relies on
[04:17] <Q_Continuum_> eck: as in boot to windows, and then run grub? *slightly confused on that instruction*
[04:17] <concept10> preaction, thats not true
[04:17] <h1st0> concept10: but if you remove a package that xubuntu-desktop depends on it wants to remove xubuntu-desktop by default.  You can safely remove it and not worry.
[04:17] <metalhedd> h1st0: one problem i've always had, even with my previous setup... maybe you could shed some light.. even when the password isn't required, i always get prompted for it when I mount the partitoion.. i can enter anything i want. its kind of annoying thouhg.
[04:18] <h1st0> metalhedd: when you mount the share in linux?
[04:18] <concept10> h1st0, I know I can safely remove, but I dont want autoremove reminding me to remove the rest of the contents of the meta-package
[04:18] <metalhedd> h1st0: yes
[04:18] <eck> Q_Continuum_: i am not sure exactly what you want to do, but basically grub has a devices.map (i think that is the filename) that tells it what devices are on the system. you need to be making sure that the usb drive is listed in that file, and then it is possible for grub to boot off another device than the one it is installed on, in this case the external drive
[04:18] <h1st0> metalhedd: yeah you need to speicfy the guest option
[04:18] <h1st0> metalhedd: i.e. mount -t smbfs //server/public /media/share -o guest
[04:18] <Trelard> everytime I try to use the HTTP protocol in Unbutu i get the black screen of death.. Now, wh would it do that?
[04:18] <mindstate> is anyone familiar with ktorrent?
[04:18] <h1st0> metalhedd: I just went throught hat yesterday.
[04:19] <Trelard> and would anyone have any idea of how to fix that issue
 LTSP looks perfect - thankyou :)
[04:19] <Q_Continuum_> eck: I'll see if I can find something on that, if you have an idea of where to look that would be great - I just need to be pointed at the documentation and I *should* be able to get it from there.
[04:19] <h1st0> metalhedd: if you want to do it in fstab thats a little trickier.
[04:19] <eck> Q_Continuum_: i know how to do it in linux, i just don't know how the windows version of grub works :-/
[04:19] <metalhedd> h1st0: brilliant. thank you. i did do it in fstab actually.
[04:19] <eck> Q_Continuum_: see if you can find the device.map file
[04:19] <Tails3> maybe a NIC card that is not Linux compabable?
[04:19] <Q_Continuum_> eck: ah.  Booting back to Windows
[04:20] <h1st0> metalhedd: line would be like //server/public /media/share smbfs   rw,guest,fmask=666,dmask=777
[04:20] <h1st0> metalhedd: you can't use umask in fstab with a samba share.
[04:20] <Trelard> Tails: nope... it works fine.. it downloaded all the updates
[04:20] <h1st0> metalhedd: You ahve to use fmask and dmask.
[04:20] <Tails3> k
[04:20] <metalhedd> h1st0: yep
[04:20] <metalhedd> //fserv/FREE            /free           cifs            auto,guest,rw,nopasswd,users,uid=1000,gid=1000  0 0
[04:20] <Trelard> but why would it black screen?
[04:20] <Trelard> it only does it on HTTP
[04:21] <h1st0> metalhedd: yeah there ya go.  You can use smbfs instead of cifs if you have smbfs installed also.
[04:21] <metalhedd> h1st0: i'm not sure if it will do it on boot up though... it didn't before i added guest.
[04:21] <Tails3> wierd
[04:21] <metalhedd> h1st0: i was under the impression cifs was the new smbfs
[04:21] <h1st0> metalhedd: well you could sudo umount /free then sudo mount -a and see
[04:21] <h1st0> metalhedd: Ahh that I don't know just ignore me on cifs thing then.
[04:21] <metalhedd> h1st0: i looked into it, pretty sure i'm right. :)
[04:22] <h1st0> metalhedd: cool I'll have to check it out.
[04:23] <javiolo> any idea how to mount a mac HFS+ partition on osx ?
[04:24] <rp_> anyone know how to test a joystick?
[04:24] <javiolo> I tried mount -t hfsplus /dev/hdec /media and doesnt work
[04:24] <h1st0> javiolo: mount it on a mac?

[04:25] <eck> Q_Continuum_: maybe this isn't possible... the grub docs indicate that grub can only boot from BIOS drives, so if the bios can't see an external drive you might be out of luck
[04:25] <rusty> hello
[04:25] <h1st0> rusty: hola
[04:25] <d00by> for some reason after installing xgl and beryl, all my fonts are really tiny, can anobody help me?
[04:25] <eck> Q_Continuum_: did you try using grub to boot the live cd?
[04:25] <fog_proxy> any help will be appreciated
[04:25] <javiolo> !diskmounter
[04:25] <rusty> como te iiamas
[04:25] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse
[04:25] <sbrath> should my LANG=en_US.UTF-8 or just en_US ??
[04:25] <h1st0> d00by: support for xgl compiz is in #ubuntu-effects
[04:25] <h1st0> d00by: or beryl wahtever
[04:25] <Q_Continuum_> eck: no, because I don't have an optical drive, internal or external.
[04:26] <eck> Q_Continuum_: i think the issue is that the installer cannot modify an active partition
[04:26] <eck> so if the installer is loaded on a partition you cannot resize that partition
[04:26] <userund> fog_proxy: you could try symlinking your available lib to the one it's looking for
[04:26] <h1st0> fog_proxy: how did you install libopencdk8?
[04:26] <Q_Continuum_> eck: Ah... :-/
[04:26] <Spaghetti_Knife> Hi. I locked myself out of my wireless adapter. How can I get back in? I forgot the password.
[04:26] <fog_proxy> h1st0: I just do apt-get install libopencdk8
[04:26] <Spaghetti_Knife> Anybody  know of any good software?
[04:27] <h1st0> !any | Spaghetti_Knife
[04:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about any - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:27] <h1st0> !anyone | Spaghetti_Knife
[04:27] <ubotu> Spaghetti_Knife: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:27] <fog_proxy> h1st0: seems the repository is wrong
[04:27] <userund> Spaghetti_Knife: yes, tons
[04:27] <rusty> my synaptic wont open, i get this error "Unable to copy the user's Xauthorization file."
[04:27] <eck> Q_Continuum_: i am not sure if there are any windows utilities that let you resize a live partition
[04:27] <fog_proxy> userund: just link?
[04:27] <eck> if there are, then you are in luck
[04:27] <Spaghetti_Knife> userund: Please?
[04:28] <h1st0> fog_proxy: hrm.. thats wierd  maybe make a post on the forums or file a bug.  Or perhaps try removing cdk8 and apt-get install libcdk8 and libcdk8-dev
[04:28] <fog_proxy> userund: seems good idea,but how about the header files?
[04:28] <userund> fog_proxy: since the versions aren't so different it could work.  and if it doesn't then it's not like you've installed a new program, just a link
[04:28] <h1st0> fog_proxy: or whateve rthe exact names where.
[04:28] <Q_Continuum_> eck: I could install partition magic, sorta...I'm beginning to think I'm hosed on this one though :-/
[04:28] <userund> Spaghetti_Knife: please what?  Be specific in your question
[04:28] <fog_proxy> h1st0: I can't remove it now, since many packages depends on it
[04:29] <Spaghetti_Knife> userund: You said that there's software for breaking back into my router. How do I do that? I made a stupidly long password and forgot it.
[04:29] <eck> Q_Continuum_: you aren't in a great situation if you cannot boot off of any external devices and you only have one partition
[04:29] <ElllisD> krandrtray shows no sizes & says "Required X Extension Not Available" & fglrxinfo says Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0". I'm lost as to where to begin on this.
[04:29] <fghj> how do I do this query? "what package provides pgm.h" (apt-cache search pgm.h does not work)
[04:29] <h1st0> fog_proxy: well you could try forcing the install of the dev package.  But perhaps someone else has experienced this issue thats why I would check on the forums or follow someone elses advice.
[04:29] <Q_Continuum_> eck: exactly.  I have a floppy I could use, but then I don't have enough space I think for a normal boot image anymore :-/
[04:29] <eck> i don't think you can downsize a hot ntfs partition, even in partitionmagic
[04:30] <fog_proxy> userund: I just wonder, does apt-get check the dependence from a library name?
[04:30] <h1st0> Spaghetti_Knife: You would have to google for your type of router but there should be a master reset.
[04:30] <Armyboy30> Im trying to compile my first kernel.  Im useing a web site as a guide but Im having a problem.  It tells me to "fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version=-custom kernel_image kernel_headers"  but when I do that I get  "/usr/bin/fakeroot: 152: make-: not found".  Can anyone tell me what the problem is?
[04:30] <h1st0> Spaghetti_Knife: little button on the back you push with a pen
[04:30] <eck> there are floppy install options, but i am not sure if they actually work or are still maintained
[04:30] <userund> Spaghetti_Knife: ah, sorry, I hadn't seen your previous question.  Why do you need to crack the pw?  Most likely you can just reset it, check the router's manufacturer site
[04:30] <Q_Continuum_> eck: you can, but windows doesn't like you much anymore.
[04:30] <fghj> how do I do this query? "what package provides pgm.h" (apt-cache search pgm.h does not work)
[04:30] <Q_Continuum_> eck: exactly, I don't think I can floppy install anymore...too big
[04:30] <ElllisD> Spaghetti_Knife: Isn't there a reset button?
[04:30] <h1st0> Armyboy30: you need make-kpkg installed.
[04:30] <fog_proxy> h1st0: how to force install? does apt-get have and options?
[04:30] <userund> fog_proxy: good question, I'm not sure.
[04:30] <Spaghetti_Knife> EllisD: Hmmm... Cool. I'll do that once my brother stops playing Crackdown online.
[04:30] <h1st0> fog_proxy: -F i think or -f  man apt-get should show you.
[04:31] <Armyboy30> h1st0:  cool, thanks.  Tought it was an easy fix but wasnt sure
[04:31] <kierkier> hello!
[04:31] <Spaghetti_Knife> userund: But cracking software would be nice.
[04:31] <fog_proxy> h1st0: well, thanks
[04:31] <rusty> --force-all -i
[04:31] <ElllisD> lol @ spag
[04:31] <h1st0> Armyboy30: yeah you may want build-essentials I believe its in there.  Its a meta package with a bunch of compiling stuff.
[04:31] <ElllisD> anyone wanna help me get r&r working again?
[04:32] <eck> Q_Continuum_: well i guess that leaves you with physically removing the drive, or doing a pxe install :-(
[04:32] <peeps> this isn't really an ubuntu specific question, but does anyone know if it is possible expand an existing RAID array with an additional drive?
[04:32] <rusty> my synaptic wont open, i get this error "Unable to copy the user's Xauthorization file."
[04:32] <rusty> whats that
[04:32] <eck> peeps: what raid level?
[04:32] <Q_Continuum_> eck: exactly.  I also didn't see a PXE boot option, suprisingly
[04:32] <peeps> eck: well, it is hypothetical, but I would say 5
[04:33] <h1st0> rusty: does it prompt you for a password?
[04:33] <eck> Q_Continuum_: on my laptop there is a special key that i can hit during post, or you might be able to set the network card as a boot device
[04:33] <eck> how old is the computer?
[04:33] <kierkier> when booting to the live cd install on a desktop it keeps coming up with acpi cooling device cannot turn 'on'
[04:33] <eck> peeps: definitely not 5
[04:33] <rusty> no
[04:33] <peeps> i want to build a nice large file server, and would like to be able to expand it in the future if need be
[04:33] <eck> peeps: probably raid 1 or 0
[04:33] <techie_> I have dual boot xp and ubuntu? Any way to read my pdf's in xp through ubuntu?
[04:33] <sbrath> eck: solution found for my locale issue, I needed to set my /etc/environment LANG="en_US" and install localepurge and dump all the other locales that seemed to have been loaded
[04:34] <h1st0> eck: or lvm
[04:34] <Q_Continuum_> eck: not very, its a Pentium M...but it fors ome reason doesn't have a netboot option :-/
[04:34] <h1st0> !lvm | peeps
[04:34] <ubotu> peeps: 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
[04:34] <eck> yes, lvm is probably the best solution
[04:34] <bakefy> I need help mounting a second hard drive.
[04:34] <jlgaddis> peeps: Run LVM on top of your RAID arrays.
[04:34] <h1st0> !mount | bakefy
[04:34] <ubotu> bakefy: Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[04:34] <ElllisD> techie_: captive ntfs i think
[04:34] <eck> Q_Continuum_: how can you not boot from a usb device if it is not very old???
[04:34] <eck> what model?
[04:35] <Q_Continuum_> eck: I have no idea.  its an nc4010...I'm goign to try hooking the drive back up and firing it all the way into windows, and powering down...see if it just didn't detect it or something.
[04:35] <Q_Continuum_> compaq/hp
[04:35] <techie_> <ElllisD do I need to install it? Also my xp is in Fat 32 not NTFS
[04:35] <bakefy> h1st0: I dont want to format... it already have linux format... and some files... do i still need those programs?
[04:35] <h1st0> rusty: well thats the issue
[04:36] <rusty> yeh
[04:36] <ElllisD> techie_: I think then you can just mount the drive
[04:36] <eck> Q_Continuum_: i assume you have seen this? http://lackof.org/matt/hacking/hpnc4010/
[04:36] <rusty> i tryed to install xgl/compiz
[04:36] <h1st0> bakefy: you can just mount /dev/<partition> /<mountpoint>
[04:36] <ubuntu_> ?
[04:36] <rusty> and the update screwed me
[04:36] <ubuntu_> hey...i have a question
[04:36] <Q_Continuum_> eck: yes
[04:36] <techie_> <ElllisD thanks, I will have to figure how to do that.
[04:36] <h1st0> rusty: log out and log back in see if it works if not you may have an issue with sudoers file
[04:36] <rusty> xorg didnt load
[04:36] <h1st0> !sudo | rusty
[04:36] <ubotu> rusty: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[04:36] <eck> so there must be a pxe boot option somewhere
[04:36] <ubuntu_> does anyone know how to boot Ubuntu live on a Mac with Intel?
[04:37] <h1st0> rusty: Well if X didn't load you can run a gui program like synaptic
[04:37] <ubuntu_> and whats that?
[04:37] <h1st0> !intel | ubuntu_
[04:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about intel - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:37] <rusty> i got it up and goin
[04:37] <preaction> ubuntu_: you need to install rEFIt, theres a whole thread about it on the ubuntu wiki
[04:37] <h1st0> rusty: It works now?
[04:37] <bakefy> thanks h1st0
[04:37] <rusty> but i think that was the issue
[04:37] <eck> it looks like it can be enabled in the BIOS
[04:37] <h1st0> bakefy: np you can look at fstab if you want to mount it on boot.
[04:38] <rusty>  gui = works root power = pooped
[04:38] <linuxor> HI,Please Where can I find MATLAB for linux ?
[04:38] <peeps> if I used LVM, i don't get any protection from hard drive failure from what I understand.  (unless I do a full mirror, which seems a waste compared to RAID 45)
[04:38] <peeps> i mean 5
[04:38] <eck> you can install a tftp server on windows, but i am not sure how difficult it is
[04:38] <bakefy> that is my next step.  I am following a how to.
[04:38] <ubuntu_> thanx i'll try it
[04:38] <h1st0> rusty: I believ ein the link ubotu sent you there is info on fixing sudo
[04:38] <blackes1> join #mythtv
[04:38] <eck> that is how the windows computers on campus boot
[04:38] <Frogzoo> peeps: LVM is an overlay - you can LVM on top of raid 5
[04:39] <rusty> okie dokie
[04:39] <h1st0> peeps: yeah lvm would jsut be a way to add volumes to the array.
[04:39] <h1st0> peeps: or remove.
[04:39] <Pelo> brb
[04:39] <vontux> does anyone in here have trouble with getting gnomebaker to burn dvds?
[04:40] <bakefy> h1st0, why would my fstab be blank?
[04:40] <peeps> Frogzoo: so if I run LVM on top of RAID 5, then to add volumes I would have to create another RAID array(if I wanted any redundancy on the new drives)
[04:40] <jlgaddis> peeps: Yes.
[04:40] <blackes1> vontux k3b is nicer
[04:40] <peeps> hmm
[04:40] <jlgaddis> peeps: But using LVM, you can "grow" your existing volumes instead of creating new ones.
[04:40] <mark06> I have a question about speakers and sound cards
[04:40] <eck> peeps: bottom line, is that you can't really expand raid 5 easily
[04:40] <bakefy> h1st0, wait I figured it out.
[04:41] <gravemind> I want to decode flac files and recode them in mp3. can I do that with a pipe?
[04:41] <jlgaddis> peeps: e.g. you add new physical drives, create a logical drive from them, then go into Linux and grow your LV's (say, expanding your /home partition from 50GB to 100GB on the fly).
[04:41] <vontux> blackes1: lets say I don't want to install kde on my machine w/ a dvd burner
[04:41] <Frogzoo> peeps: you add whatever LVM deviced to a LVM group you like - raided or not
[04:41] <ElllisD> why does fglrxinfo show that mesa rather than ati's the gl renderer?
[04:42] <eck> maybe it is
[04:42] <Q_Continuum_> eck: found and enabled PXE boot...now, how to set that up via Windows...(I could do a VMWare install if I absolutely have to...that might be the easiest...)
[04:42] <ElllisD> shouldnt it be ati tho?
[04:43] <rich__> *sigh* i love ubuntu
[04:43] <javiolo> how can I check if a hd is working correctly ?
[04:43] <Spaghetti_Knife> Anybody know where the airsnort channel is? I looked on #airsnort.
[04:43] <rich__> where has it been all my life
[04:43] <Spaghetti_Knife> Which server is it on?
[04:43] <blackes1> ellis-d you do not have composite disabled i reckon
[04:43] <eck> Q_Continuum_: you can use any tftp server, there are several for windows because this is a pretty common thing to do
[04:43] <Q_Continuum_> ZOMG!  IT SEES THE USB HARD DISK!
[04:44] <Q_Continuum_> eck: now it sees the NIC AND the USB HD...
[04:44] <eck> lol
[04:44] <ElllisD> blackes1: will look into that ty
[04:44] <Q_Continuum_> eck: time to try the USB stick again....*sighs and starts on it* We'll know in ~5 minutes if its going to work or not...
[04:44] <blackes1> i would look into the radeon driver instead if it works for you its a lot better than ati it took me 4 days to find that out
[04:45] <peeps> eh, i'm starting to think my RAID idea is not worth the effort.  maybe just LVM over regular drives
[04:45] <eck> i would just put grub and the netinstall on the usb disk
[04:45] <eck> i also have a "legacy free" laptop with no CD drive
[04:46] <Q_Continuum_> eck: I honestly have no idea which instructions to use for putting the netinstall on the USB drive.
[04:46] <eck> peeps: they are for different things. raid is for redundancy (and speed), lvm is for presenting multiple devices as one area to the OS
[04:46] <ElllisD> blackes1: I thought fglrx was the driver for radeon- what do you mean?
[04:47] <eck> Q_Continuum_: just put the kernel and initrd on the usb disk and install grub onto it. when you boot off the usb stick it will pop up a grub screen
[04:47] <blackes1> basically there are 3 drivers (not including vesa) the ubuntu driver ati's driver and the radeon driver
[04:47] <peeps> eck: i know, i kind of liked the idea of redundancy, but without any simple expandability it seems more trouble than its worth for me
[04:47] <eck> i think i might have a grub entry to demonstrate
[04:48] <eck> peeps: there are raid configurations that allow you to expand, they just have trade offs
[04:48] <ElllisD> brb- restarting x after disabling composite
[04:48] <eck> i think raid 10 for example
[04:48] <linuxgx> Any one know when the next release is planed for?
[04:48] <SimplySeth> so there is no mirror for us yanks ?
[04:48] <blackes1> all 3 work to an extent but radeon extends a bit further you will find that beryl will install with the radeon driver for example i also saw a higher framerate with glxgears compared to the ati driver
[04:48] <eck> linuxgx: april
[04:48] <linuxgx> tks
[04:49] <Spaghetti_Knife> Anybody here use airsnort?
[04:49] <peeps> yeah, i can't really afford full mirroring(2x disks) though
[04:49] <mag_> hey can you help me with my network ? some hours ago I have 6.06 and all work's fine but now with edgy the network and internet is ver slow
[04:49] <Q_Continuum_> eck: I'll just try using the USB drive for the whole thing real quick, that would be faster than a netinstall anyway.
[04:49] <peeps> i want the best of all worlds
[04:49] <Q_Continuum_> eck: If that doesn't work, then I'll try just grub + netinstaller
[04:49] <bakefy> how do I remove the files on my hard drive that show the locked icon
[04:50] <BENN92647> pelo- it seems to have worked i have tried to get into XP but it did show a menu
[04:50] <blackes1> mag wireless broadcom ?
[04:50] <eck> Q_Continuum_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8177/
[04:50] <BENN92647> *i didnt try to get in to XP
[04:50] <StereoSkit> dudes, is edgy the last ubuntu code name?
[04:50] <preaction> bakefy: edit their properties to allow writing, and then delete them? or open a terminal and sudo rm "filename"
[04:50] <eck> that is what i used when i installed onto this laptop
[04:50] <BENN92647> My sata drive is crunching that has me worried LOL
[04:50] <SimplySeth> I'll take that as a no
[04:50] <eck> ok, well in principle its all the same
[04:50] <eck> put the stuff on the usb drive, boot it with grub
[04:51] <BENN92647> nm hes not here
[04:51] <eck> whether the stuff is a real install Cd or a netboot kernel is up to you :-)
[04:51] <peeps> StereoSkit: Edgy is the most recent (non-beta) Ubuntu release
[04:51] <StereoSkit> peeps: k, thnx
[04:51] <ElllisD> blackes1: I added lines to xorg.conf to disable composite & fglrxinfo still shows its using mesa & not ati like I expected but I no longer get an XF86 thing missing error & krandrtray works again- shouldnt it say ati where it says mesa tho?
[04:51] <bakefy> preaction: I am not the owner, I cant change the permissions
[04:52] <mag_> internet and network slow, please help me !
[04:52] <preaction> bakefy: then maybe it's a good idea that you can't delete the file?
[04:52] <BENN92647> ok for all the n00b noob n00bs like me/spend $40 get a 40G IDE drive and install XP on it or vista...trying to run online games in lixus through wine will just make you hate linux
[04:52] <Q_Continuum_> eck: So which way would I install grub to do the netboot?
[04:52] <blackes1> EllisD you trying to run beryl by any chance ?
[04:52] <BENN92647> but LINUX RULES!
[04:52] <Naik0> hey how do i upload an folder subdirectorys and files with LFTP?
[04:52] <bakefy> preaction: I know what the files are.  They were put there when I was figuring out samba sharing.  now I cant delete them
[04:52] <ElllisD> blackes1: not on purpose- I don't know what that is
[04:52] <eck> Q_Continuum_: i will explain this more fully, then perhaps it will all make sense :-)
[04:52] <BENN92647> ok ubotu im done
[04:53] <FlippantBird> can someone help me get my graphics drivers working?
[04:53] <digi_> does anyone know of a program that graphs disk usage?
[04:53] <BENN92647> is it Nvidia or ATI
[04:53] <FlippantBird> ati
[04:53] <Q_Continuum_> eck: I understand what we're trying to do - build a netboot disk with just grub and the netboot installer...but how to install grub I'm stuck on (All these different instructions are getting confusing)
[04:53] <preaction> bakefy: you get to open up a terminal then. you can either use sudo rm, or you can use sudo chown to change the owner
[04:53] <BENN92647> ubuntu has one built in
[04:53] <FlippantBird> i cant get direct rendering
[04:53] <JamesBee1> anyone know anything about taskbar compiz?
[04:53] <fuzzyevolution> need some help on setting up 2 monitors
[04:53] <bakefy> thanks... preaction
[04:53] <ElllisD> digi_: X -configure
[04:53] <SimplySeth> well that's stinks .. oh well
[04:54] <BENN92647> system monitor
[04:54] <eck> Q_Continuum_: the same way as you installed it on your main hard drive
[04:54] <BENN92647> it works great
[04:54] <Q_Continuum_> eck: Ok.  Now I can follow those instructions :D
[04:54] <ElllisD> digi_: no, wait- sudo X -configure
[04:54] <FlippantBird> what is system monitor
[04:54] <fuzzyevolution> any tips on setting up dual monitors
[04:54] <eck> oh, grub4dos is chainloaded it looks like
[04:54] <BENN92647> ok well i am going to try and boot in to XP lol wish me luck
[04:55] <JamesBee1> how do i start taskbar compiz
[04:55] <blackes1> ellis_d https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver?highlight=%28radeon%29 that should help
[04:55] <digi_> EllisD: why would I want to configure x? im trying to see what folders are taking up the most space on my external drive.
[04:55] <rbil> fuzzyevolution: too specific to the type of grahics card you're using and monitors attached.
[04:55] <fuzzyevolution> dual monitor help?? w/ubuntu
[04:55] <ElllisD> digi_: oops, wrong nick
[04:55] <bakefy> preaction: how do I type a space in my filename for terminal?
[04:55] <eck> Q_Continuum_: are you OK with wiping the usb drive?
[04:55] <digi_> :) thats ok
[04:55] <Naik0> hey how do i upload an folder subdirectorys and files with LFTP?
[04:55] <ElllisD> :)
[04:55] <Q_Continuum_> eck: it is blank.  No issues.
[04:55] <R[a] ndom> fuzzyevolution, nvidia or ati?
[04:55] <Q_Continuum_> eck: Got a better option?
[04:56] <preaction> bakefy: either use quotes or escape the space by putting a \ in front of it
[04:56] <JamesBee1> how do i start taskbar compiz
[04:56] <bakefy> thanks
[04:56] <ElllisD> digi_: filelight

[04:58] <ElllisD> FlippantBird: Me, too- just fixed that a minute ago by disabling composite
[04:58] <FlippantBird> how?
[04:59] <eck> Q_Continuum_: http://ubuntu.cs.utah.edu/ubuntu/dists/edgy/main/installer-i386/current/images/hd-media/boot.img.gz
[04:59] <Q_Continuum_> eck: how do I want to dd that over? *isn't a guru with dd* heh
[04:59] <FlippantBird> is it in xorg.conf?
[04:59] <ElllisD> i had a link- ill look up the bookmark- brb
[04:59] <kenthomson> eck thats a hell of a path
[04:59] <eck> yes it is
[04:59] <ElllisD> yeah- add a few lines
[04:59] <arredju> eck its me remember?
[04:59] <arredju> can you help me?
[04:59] <madmax> ok if I change the driver to "nvidia" in xorg.conf X windows won't work
[04:59] <madmax> right now it is set as "nv"
[04:59] <kenthomson> madmax you have nvidia-driver installed?
[04:59] <kenthomson> !nvidia | madmax
[04:59] <ubotu> madmax: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:59] <eck> http://www.chrysocome.net/dd
[05:00] <SurR3AL> hhey every1....i got a slight problem....i downloaded ubuntu edgy last nite with utorrent.....but my modem got switched off sometime this mornin, n when i checked my comp, in utorrent, the download was stopped at 94.6%, but when i check the file size of whatever's downloaded, i get 698MB, (732,293,120 bytes) which is exactly the size of the direct .iso download also.....it also completely got extracted with 7-zip....but its worries me coz utorrent dint show
[05:00] <madmax> I did apt-get install nvidia-glx
[05:00] <eck> you want to unzip the file and copy it onto the drive with dd
[05:00] <ElllisD> FlippantBird: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Edgy_Installation_Guide
[05:00] <eck> then it will be magically bootable, and have the edgy installer even
[05:00] <eck> arredju: yes
[05:00] <SurR3AL> oh cool....
[05:00] <SurR3AL> so it will work?
[05:00] <kenthomson> madmax, you surely want to check that link i gave you to see if it is correctly installed
[05:00] <SurR3AL> (i'm a major newbie :))
[05:00] <FlippantBird> thank you
[05:00] <ElllisD> blackes1: ty for the ati link
[05:00] <ElllisD> FlippantBird: np
[05:00] <kenthomson> SurR3AL, have you checked the md*sum?
[05:01] <SurR3AL> uhhh....wats dat?
[05:01] <arredju> im trying to install FUSE but when i do it gives me an error; files created are older than originals check your system clock
[05:01] <blackes1> i have sympathy for anyone trying to install ati drivers i spent far too long at it
[05:01] <eck> Q_Continuum_: if you can get grub on the drive (and working) without doing this then that is easier though
[05:01] <eck> it just looks like that is not possible with grub4dos
[05:01] <kenthomson> SurR3AL, currently on Windoze?
[05:01] <Pelo> arredju,  that's the kind off stuff you should look up in the forum
[05:02] <arredju> already searched google
[05:02] <bakefy> I tried to remove a locked "lost+found" folder and it didnt go away.
[05:02] <SurR3AL> yep...XP
[05:02] <SurR3AL> okay...i got this md5sum.txt file
[05:02] <arredju> i cant install anything
[05:02] <Pelo> bakefy,  there is a reason for those locks , leave it
[05:02] <SurR3AL> but what do i check it with?
[05:02] <timfrost> !md5sum | SurR3AL
[05:02] <ubotu> SurR3AL: To verify the integrity of a download, use the md5sum - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM for more
[05:02] <bakefy> Pelo, I just added this hard drive.  I just reinstalled ubuntu
[05:02] <SurR3AL> okay thanks....will check it :)
[05:02] <kenthomson> timfrost, i was manually looking for it
[05:03] <bakefy> this hard drive just has music on it.
[05:03] <gaspipe1> night all
[05:03] <Pelo> bakefy,  I think lost and found is part of all ext3 partitions,  I have one on each
[05:03] <eck> arredju: fix your clock
[05:03] <rbil> SurR3AL: there's a md5sum.exe for Windows somewhere on the net. Install it and run it against the iso you downloaded. If the numbers match what's in the txt file, the iso is good to go
[05:03] <Q_Continuum_> eck: trying to figure out the exact command for dd...I'm thinking "dd if=c:\boot.img of=\\.\g:" - that look alright?
[05:03] <eck> the command to use is date
[05:03] <kenthomson> now if i could get some attention my ubuntu-human theme is acting like ubuntu-blue theme, how do i revert back to the original?
[05:04] <bakefy> is it bad that it is locked?  I can't even see what is inside it.
[05:04] <Spaghetti_Knife> If I've already compiled and installed a driver, can I still install a patch?
[05:04] <peeps> what GUI irc clients does everyone use?  I am using xchat, is there something that you would consider better?
[05:04] <eck> Q_Continuum_: i am not really sure, because you need to dd to the start of the device itself (not the partition)
[05:04] <ElllisD> peeps: i like gaim
[05:04] <Toma-> peeps: xchat is the bomb. especially with transparent windows
[05:04] <eck> on linux it would be dd if=boot.img of=/dev/sda
[05:04] <eck> or even cat boot.img > /dev/sda
[05:05] <Q_Continuum_> eck: :-/ (the command above errors out saying it can't do it because the file is being used by another process)
[05:05] <Pelo> later folks
[05:05] <ElllisD> peeps: cuz it remembers my password
[05:05] <chalcedony> ElllisD: have you tried pasting text into yahoo on gaim? on mine it's printing a number of odd things in front of each line i type, now, my friend sees them
[05:05] <Q_Continuum_> Would the Ubuntu live CD load NTFS drives as readable?
[05:05] <bakefy> what is the command to change ownership of a directory>
[05:05] <eck> yes
[05:05] <Q_Continuum_> (If so I can pop that in this workstation and boot and run the command from linux)
[05:05] <eck> yes
[05:05] <eck> that is a good idea
[05:06] <ElllisD> chalcedony: no, I don't use yahoo except for dominoes
[05:06] <peeps> ok 2 xchat questions: 1) is there a way to display timestamps next to all messages, and 2) How can I make it open FF for links instead of Konqueror
[05:06] <chalcedony> peeps: which Xchat?
[05:06] <peeps> ElllisD: and I didn't realize gaim did IRC, i will have to try that too.
[05:06] <ElllisD> chalcedony: are you in here on gaim, cuz i see regular text from you in here
[05:06] <peeps> chalcedony 2.6.6
[05:06] <eck> the irc option in gaim is pretty awful
[05:06] <Toma-> peeps Settings > Advanced > URL Handerers
[05:07] <chalcedony> ElllisD: i'm here on Xchat .. i use gaim for yahoo
[05:07] <ElllisD> eck: why?
[05:07] <Q_Continuum_> eck: I'm going to give it a try then, which command is more likely to succeed, or would both?
[05:07] <eck> Q_Continuum_: just use cat
[05:07] <eck> if you have the .img.gz use zcat
[05:07] <eck> e.g. zcat boot.img.gz > /dev/sda
[05:07] <Toma-> peeps: Settings > Preferences > Text box > Timestamps
[05:07] <eck> ElllisD: i think the interface is just insane
[05:07] <Spaghetti_Knife> Can I patch a driver if I don't have the source code?
[05:08] <Spaghetti_Knife> Or should I not try?
[05:08] <Q_Continuum_> eck: I've unpacked it.  Gonna give it a go...then I'll boot back to Windows so I can get back in here and let you know how it goes :D
[05:08] <eck> ok
[05:08] <ElllisD> eck: yeah i can see room for improvement
[05:08] <bakefy> what do I need to do in the smb.conf file to share without a password?
[05:08] <R[a] ndom> bakefy, here I'll show you what I did
[05:09] <Chicory> Oh darn it.  >:E
[05:09] <bakefy> R[a] ndom, Thanks!
[05:09] <R[a] ndom> http://www.pastebin.ca/377949
[05:09] <R[a] ndom> I just added that
[05:09] <chalcedony> ElllisD: i need to get rid of the random characters .. will restarting gaim do that, like it does on windows ?
[05:10] <peeps> thanks guys, i got timestamps working.  konq is still loading though, gonna try to restart the app.
[05:10] <peeps> brb
[05:10] <ElllisD> chalcedony: no idea- try it i guess- I wonder if its a font issue?
[05:11] <tunganet> Does anyone know how to cancel hot area for Beryl?
[05:11] <BENN92647> anyone know if ther eis a defrag program for lunix?
[05:11] <eck> there is not
[05:11] <BENN92647> great
[05:11] <chalcedony> BENN92647: no need for it
[05:11] <Joboo> !whitescreen
[05:11] <Madpilot> BENN92647, there's no need for one. Only NTFS & fat32 fragment.
[05:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about whitescreen - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:11] <eck> normally it is not an issue unless you have done something dumb
[05:11] <yharrow> cancel hotareas by opening beryl settings
[05:11] <phishy> hello.. what process mounts usb drives to /media on startup?
[05:11] <BENN92647> ok what a bout a clean up utility
[05:12] <chalcedony> does rebooting gaim fix problems in it?
[05:12] <eck> as long as you keep 20% free space or so you will not get enough fragmentation to worry about
[05:12] <Madpilot> BENN92647, cleanup for what?>
[05:12] <ElllisD> never had problems w/ it to know
[05:12] <gravemind> who knows about k3b
[05:12] <ElllisD> gravemind: what?
[05:12] <BENN92647> i think i have a bunch of double files from botched installs
[05:12] <yharrow> Beryl settings manager> General options> Shortcuts> Screen edges
[05:12] <BENN92647> YAY! gravemind
[05:13] <gravemind> EllisD: does it automatically use DiskAtOnce or TrackAtOnce for audio
[05:13] <gravemind> BENN92647: hey what's up?
[05:13] <eck> Madpilot: all writeable filesystems fragmetnt
[05:13] <ElllisD> wow no clue sorry
[05:13] <yharrow> tunganet, <<
[05:13] <yharrow> that was for you
[05:13] <Madpilot> eck, true - I should have said that ext3 et al fix themselves, pretty much.
[05:13] <gravemind> ElllisD: it makes a huge difference for pink floyd albums
[05:13] <BENN92647> well i decided to dual boot LOL Guild wars is way to buggy in linux
[05:13] <tunganet> yes?

[05:14] <yharrow> tunganet, your very welcome
[05:14] <tunganet> And how do i run full screen programs?
[05:14] <ElllisD> oh i see what youre talking about- theres a way somewhere to remove the gap
[05:14] <yharrow> tunganet, which one?
[05:14] <tunganet> when i run games, the top panel and bottom panel does not hide
[05:14] <peeps> hey guys, I can't get xchat to load firefox when I click "open link in browser"
[05:14] <gravemind> ElllisD: track at once puts a teeny gap between tracks (it's what itunes uses) Disk at Once burns with no gaps between tracks
[05:15] <eck> peeps: what DE?
[05:15] <yharrow> tunganet, personally I right click the panel and choose "hide panel"
[05:15] <ElllisD> gravemind: yeah- i know what you mean- it helps on dj mixes too
[05:15] <tunganet> oh what..
[05:15] <tunganet> i have to do that everytime..?

[05:15] <gravemind> rbil: ElllisD : I see it! it's in Project>properties
[05:15] <yharrow> tunganet, autohide
[05:15] <tunganet> oh
[05:15] <peeps> eck: i am in gnome, but xchat wants to use konqueror for some reason

[05:16] <tunganet> its ctrl alt next
[05:16] <peeps> eck: i have that already set to firefox
[05:16] <tunganet> but what's next?
[05:16] <yell0w> how's things tunganet
[05:16] <Chicory> Does anyone else have any problems with WoW hanging under Ubuntu 6.10?
[05:16] <tunganet> OMG YELL0W!
[05:16] <FlippantBird> can anyone tell me if the open source radeon drivers support a mobility radeon 9600?
[05:16] <_Krull_> I need someone to walk me thru the install process from the manual part of partinioning so I will still have xp
[05:16] <yharrow> tunganet, one second Ill find out for you ;)
[05:16] <eck> peeps: easiest thing is to use another client (maybe xchat-gnome), i think there is some way to edit the system-wide mime settings to use firefox, but that is suboptimal
[05:16] <gravemind> ElllisD: rbil : have you ever tried "write cd text?" I tried it in itunes on my mac and it kept burning coasters.
[05:17] <tunganet> okay thanks!
[05:17] <ElllisD> gravemind: nope, no ipod
[05:17] <rbil> gravemind: no
[05:17] <gravemind> well there's a 'simulate' option. would that tell me if it would burn a coaster
[05:17] <eck> peeps: /usr/share/applications/defaults.list
[05:17] <ElllisD> gravemind: but if i burn mp3's like a data project my cd player reads the id3's
[05:18] <eck> you are looking for text/html
[05:18] <rpc> is there a way to run a custom kernel that i just installed if it's compiled without initrd? grub tries to run initrd by default and it all fails
[05:18] <ElllisD> or something- it knows their name
[05:18] <gravemind> ElllisD: cool, is that a stereo or a portable cd player
[05:18] <rbil> ElllisD: I believe he's talking about burning audio cds
[05:18] <ElllisD> portable
[05:18] <eck> rpc: just don't add an initrd line
[05:19] <rpc> eck i didn't
[05:19] <ElllisD> o
[05:19] <gravemind> rbil: yeah, I'm talking about that
[05:19] <eck> rpc: also check to make sure kopts is not set
[05:19] <eck> kopts will be automatically appended to any entries
[05:19] <rpc> eck and it says about missing root etc. (kernel panic)
[05:19] <ElllisD> so the write cd text function is for that then
[05:19] <eck> rpc: you need a root= line
[05:19] <rpc> eck i have one
[05:19] <rbil> ElllisD: right, wave files don't have id tags
[05:19] <rpc> eck it's pointing to the same device as in the previous kernel
[05:19] <ElllisD> does flac?
[05:19] <eck> rpc: you might be missing the driver your your hard drive
[05:20] <gravemind> ElllisD: yes. it populates the toc file with information
[05:20] <Madpilot> ElllisD, flac & ogg both have id3 tags
[05:20] <peeps> eck: yeah that file is set to firefox too for text/html
[05:20] <rpc> eck it's a sata device - i didn't really see antything for sata in config
[05:20] <ElllisD> cool
[05:20] <JamesBee1> anyone know why the mozilla vlc plugin result in a no video screen and how to fix it?
[05:20] <eck> peeps: then the application is broken, file a bug report on it
[05:20] <eck> rpc: what kernel?
[05:21] <rpc> eck 2.6.20.1
[05:21] <gravemind> ElllisD, rbil: when I tried that option in itunes it kept ruining my cds, so I'd like to simulate it with either 'simulate' or 'only create image' options
[05:21] <eck> rpc: i think it is folded in with the scsi stuff in 2.6.20
[05:21] <gravemind> I'll try that later I guess
[05:21] <rpc> eck oh
[05:21] <brianski> is there a way to remove all the extraneous xserver-xorg video drivers that come with ubuntu? i only need the one for my video card...
[05:21] <rbil> gravemind: waste a cd and find out :-)
[05:21] <gravemind> JamesBee1: I had that problem. I uninstalled the vlc plugin
[05:21] <rpc> eck ok looks like i need to start from scratch then :/ thank you
[05:21] <gravemind> rbil: yeah
[05:21] <brianski> ... but it seems xserver-xorg depends on xserver-xorg-video-all which depends on each of those other guys
[05:21] <rpc> eck but don't you think it has to do with missing initrd image?
[05:22] <JamesBee1> gravemind mplayer plugin works for me, but poorly. i was hoping for an alternative
[05:22] <brianski> which is nice for getting an install up, but after that...
[05:22] <Negima> is there a channel specificly for sound issues?
[05:22] <rpc> eck even though there is no initrd line for that kernel in grub
[05:22] <eck> rpc: you do not need an initrd
[05:22] <_Krull_> ppl, anyone avalible to help me install ubuntu on empty space after my XP partition? I have install ready and waiting
[05:22] <ElllisD> brianski: see if synaptic'll let you do it
[05:22] <Negima> JamesBee1, did you try changing the video driver mplayer uses?
[05:22] <bakefy> my xp still cant get on my samba shaye
[05:22] <eck> you only need an initrd if the kernel does not have modules compiled in that are necessary to boot the system
[05:22] <gravemind> JamesBee1: I'm not sure what I ended up using - I think its gstreamer or totem plugins
[05:22] <bakefy> share*
[05:22] <rpc> eck ok thank you
[05:23] <Negima> i just installed mplayer
[05:23] <Negima> at first, it wouldnt work
[05:23] <gravemind> JamesBee1: good luck, I have to run
[05:23] <ElllisD> gnite all-
[05:23] <Negima> in preferences, go to the video tab
[05:23] <Negima> and try changing the driver to gl or gl2
[05:23] <eck> _Krull_: what part do you need help with?
[05:23] <JamesBee1> negima: it works, just poor support for going back and forth in the video
[05:24] <_Krull_> keeping my Windows intact and puting in a partition for ubunto, I choose manual
[05:24] <JamesBee1> think changing to gl or gl2 will help?
[05:24] <puff> Anybody know how to reformat an ipod nano?
[05:24] <Negima> after i installed mplayer, i tried to play a dvd, adn it wouldnt work
[05:25] <eck> puff: isn't it the same as any other external device?
[05:25] <puff> Beyond the initial mkfst -t vfat /dev/sdb2
[05:25] <Negima> i changed the video driver to gl2, and it works fine
[05:25] <puff> eck: As a USB drive, it's just a USB drive.
[05:25] <Negima> could anyone perhaps help me get my sound working? im using an onboard soundcard.
[05:25] <bakefy> windows wont let me connect to samba share when the password is nothing.  how can I either set a username and password or remove authentication?
[05:25] <eck> yes, so after the mkfs command you have reformatted it, correct?
[05:25] <puff> eck: I'm trying to figure out if I can do the rest of it under linux, or if I have to go hunt up a win/mac box to run apple's ipod updatter.
[05:26] <n-iCe> Hi exist something to read the power point files?
[05:26] <n-iCe> i'm using xubuntu
[05:26] <eck> puff: i would just do that, i don't know if the linux tools can recreate the files the ipod software wants from scratch
[05:26] <puff> eck: After the mkfs you have finished reformatting your usb drive, yes, but you have not finished reformatting your ipod :-).
[05:26] <rbil> bakefy: read this about setting up a samba user: http://www.samba.netfirms.com/addusers.htm
[05:26] <puff> eck: Bah, humbug, I was hoping to do it all under linux.
[05:26] <puff> eck:  Okay, thanks.
[05:26] <eck> puff: you can try gtkpod though
[05:26] <n-iCe> How can i read them ?
[05:26] <eck> i just wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't work
[05:27] <eck> n-iCe: you have to use openoffice
[05:27] <n-iCe> eck,  than you very much, can i find it in symnaptic ?
[05:27] <puff> eck: Hm, interesting.  Disconnected it and the ipod software came up, all the music is gone.
[05:27] <Negima> can anyone help me get my sound working?
[05:27] <bakefy> rbil off tangent... I just got a netfirms hosting and I hate it.
[05:27] <ljlolel> !flash
[05:27] <eck> n-iCe: it should be installed by default
[05:27] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[05:27] <ubotu> Flash 9 (Final release) is now available for dapper-backports and edgy-backports. See !backports and !flash
[05:27] <puff> eck: So maybe that's all I needed to do... hm.
[05:27] <n-iCe> eck,  really ? let me check
[05:27] <eck> puff: i guess the ipod is smart enough to do it itself :-)
[05:27] <ljlolel> !backports
[05:27] <arctanx> Hi, I'm trying to install ubuntu 6.10 on a celeron 600/128mb ram, but it spends ages thrashing around trying to load up gnome and after about half an hour freezes completely. is there any other way to do the installation?
[05:27] <ubotu> If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports
[05:28] <eck> arctanx: use the alternate install cd
[05:28] <arctanx> (that's booting off the desktop cd, naturally)
[05:28] <arctanx> eck: thanks, I'll look into it
[05:28] <puff> eck: Well, I'm guessing that the nano isn't like the full-sized ipod, which apparently keeps the firmware in the first 32MB of the disk partition.  Guess the nano keeps it elsewehre.
[05:28] <eck> arctanx: i think the issue is that you don't have enough ram and there is no swap space, so the kernel keeps on killing the new processes that are being started
[05:28] <stealth_> since i installed edgy
[05:28] <arctanx> eck: sounds likely
[05:28] <stealth_> can i play computer games from the store still
[05:29] <eck> the alternate install is text based so there should be no memory issue
[05:29] <rpc> what can be wrong if i get no output from hostname -f or -s ? it hangs then
[05:29] <_Krull_> <--is waiting
[05:29] <abasinisvacant> hello, do i have to be connected to the internet in order to install dapper?
[05:29] <tommyv> hi i have a 2nd hard drive installed and i was wondering how i can mount it?
[05:29] <rpc> and box has no networking it seems
[05:29] <rpc> even though eth0 is up
[05:29] <arctanx> thanks
[05:30] <ljlolel> I can't find flashplugin-nonfree in my Edgy distro
[05:30] <ljlolel> I have edgy-backports in sources.list and i apt-get updated
[05:30] <eck> _Krull_: the partitioning tool will keep your data intact if you choose to resize the windows partition
[05:30] <eck> no special work is needed
[05:30] <eck> ljlolel: you need multiverse
[05:30] <tommyv> how does one go about mounting two hard drives in ubuntu?
[05:30] <Faithful> what could I use to set up a global address book for a network?
[05:31] <n-iCe> eck,  isn't there
[05:31] <n-iCe> and i couldn't find it
[05:31] <ljlolel> eck, I have universe and multiverse also
[05:31] <eck> n-iCe: try running ooimpress from the command line
[05:31] <_Krull_> So I just choose forward after highlighting unallocated?
[05:31] <n-iCe> ooimpress ? in the terminal ?
[05:31] <eck> n-iCe: if it doesn't exist, the package name is openoffice.org-impress
[05:32] <_Krull_> I am at step 5 of 6
[05:32] <n-iCe> wait wait i'm new i need to write in the terminal sudo apt-get openoffice.org-impress ??
[05:32] <bakefy> I know that before I just added something (changed) the samba.conf file and then Windows could connect to the drive/
[05:32] <eck> yes
[05:32] <eck> that is correct
[05:32] <eck> err
[05:32] <eck> apt-get install
[05:32] <tommyv> anyone know how to mount a 2nd hard drive in ubuntu?
[05:32] <eck> sudo apt-get install openoffice.org-impress
[05:33] <n-iCe> eck,  ok than you !
[05:33] <eck> tommyv: use mount
[05:33] <n-iCe> thank ill check
[05:33] <eck> it is the same as mounting anything else
[05:33] <bakefy> what do I need to do to take authentication off the samba share?
[05:33] <n-iCe> eck,  any idea how can i install my lexmark 1100 printer ?
[05:34] <n-iCe> I couldn't find nothing
[05:34] <eck> n-iCe: i do not know what the xubuntu tool for cups is called
[05:34] <eck> n-iCe: in principle though that will provide you with a gui to configure the printer
[05:34] <n-iCe> uhm ok thank you what do you mean qith cups ?
[05:35] <eck> cups is the print system
[05:35] <n-iCe> eck,  i'm new then i don't know what do you mean =p
[05:36] <eck> n-iCe: setting up printers is kind of tricky, i would look in the forums for your printer model
[05:36] <n-iCe> lexmark 1100 , thank you i was searching nothing found :/
[05:36] <ljlolel> Where do i get flashplugin-nonfree,  I have apt-get updated with a sources.list  that includes universe/multiverse/edgy-backports... ?
[05:37] <eck> ljlolel: pastebin your sources.list
[05:38] <ljlolel> eck, http://pastebin.ca/377965
[05:38] <puff> eck: Hm, it appears ubuntu is no longer automounting the ipod.  Curious.
[05:38] <corevette> I have a PCI card that has firewire slots on it....do you think this will work on Ubuntu?
[05:39] <gump44> does anyone know if linux 6.10 has a built in firewall software
[05:40] <shorty114> what happened to the live cd?
[05:40] <ljlolel> gump44, firestarter is the normal firewall
[05:40] <shorty114> or is it all just one cd now?
[05:40] <ljlolel> do you mean , does it automatically install firestarter?
[05:40] <eck> woah, earthquake
[05:40] <gump44> does it?
[05:40] <mistone> LOL EARTHQUAKE
[05:40] <ljlolel> i don't think so... iwas running feisty -- ihad to install firestarter myself
[05:40] <eck> just now
[05:41] <jhornick> where at?
[05:41] <ljlolel> which was just apt-get install firestarter
[05:41] <eck> berkeley, ca
[05:41] <mistone> WORD UP
[05:41] <ljlolel> big one?
[05:41] <puff> gump44: What do you mean by firewall software?  If you mean can it do packet filtering at the tcp/ip stack level, then yes, there are a variety of packages to do that, starting iwth the classic tcp chains, and tcp/ip filtering, and now for more specialized aps.
[05:41] <mistone> I am on the falut line lolz
[05:41] <jhornick> if he gets knocked off yes
[05:41] <mistone> I am shaksing s lolz
[05:41] <eck> not too big, but it scared me :-P
[05:41] <mistone> dude my hands are shaking
[05:41] <puff> eck: Get under the desk.   Take your computer with you :-).
[05:41] <jhornick> I sleep through them when they happen usually, but im near chichago
[05:41] <mistone> oh shi\t aftershake
[05:41] <jhornick> not that I can spell chicago
[05:41] <ljlolel> interesting -- i live in an area which is hurricane prone -- seems better than random earthquakes
[05:41] <gump44> the problem I am having is when I type www.yahoo.com it won't access the website---only with ubuntu this is a problem--any ideas?
[05:42] <mistone> or thats just me
[05:42] <ljlolel> gump44, only yahoo?
[05:42] <eck> puff: lol
[05:42] <eck> it just showed up on the usgs site, but no magnitude yet
[05:42] <gump44> a few other sites but mostly yahoo
[05:43] <puff> I'm subscribed to a mailing list that is for bay area folks (because I knew a lot of the folks on the list and was spending some time in the bay a few years back, and never unsubscribed) they tend to post when quakes come through.  It's interesting, has changed my perception of how often they occur.
[05:43] <gump44> what do you think ljlolel?
[05:43] <eck> normally there is one you can feel every few months
[05:44] <puff> eck:  Okay, so apparently my reformat wasn't as successful as I thought it was.  I had to manually mount the nano and thne when I opened it with gtkpod or with amarok, it has old fiels on it.
[05:44] <gump44> not accessing yahoo is this a dns problem?
[05:45] <K3nto> is there a way to search multiple packages at the same time?
[05:45] <eck> puff: weird, reformatting it should destroy all the files
[05:45] <n-iCe> eck, : http://linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Lexmark-X1185 check this
[05:45] <puff> Okay, well my friend with the mac is here, maybe I'll just have him try reformatting it iwth ipod updater.
[05:45] <D13GU> hi all.
[05:46] <n-iCe> could work ?
[05:46] <eck> magnitude was 4.4
[05:46] <D13GU> ubuntu is a good option for servers?
[05:46] <Naik0> hey how do i start gimp in english?
[05:46] <K3nto> i have a huge list of packages to get
[05:46] <K3nto> and to paste all of them individually into the search seems really trivial
[05:46] <jhornick> pfft I only found 4.2 on mag
[05:46] <FlippantBird> how can i tell if im using aiglx or xgl?
[05:46] <ljlolel> dunno what that could be -- it could
[05:46] <corevette> how do you install vmware player
[05:46] <Chicory_> Oh, uh --
[05:47] <cefx> ubuntu is good if all you need/want is a quick easy setup d13egu.
[05:47] <cefx> It gives you LAMP.
[05:47] <Chicory_> I want to get an nvidia card capable of handing WoW in Linx via CrossOver.
[05:47] <bimberi> K3nto: sudo apt-get install package1 package2 package3 ...
[05:47] <brianski> hmm
[05:47] <cefx> linux, apache, mysql and php.
[05:47] <Chicory_> *Linux
[05:47] <Chicory_> How cheap can I really go?
[05:47] <bimberi> !vmware-player
[05:47] <ubotu> vmware-player: Free virtual machine player from VMware. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1.0.2-2 (edgy), package size 11602 kB, installed size 31336 kB (Only available for i386 amd64)
[05:47] <cefx> I'd reccomend FreeBSD, Slackware or Gentoo for a server.
[05:47] <brianski> so it seems dpkg is completely happy to remove xserver-xorg-video-all, but apt-get insists you need to apt-get -f install (which install xserver-xorg-video-all)
[05:48] <FlippantBird> how can i tell if im using aiglx or xgl?
[05:48] <cefx> Chicory_: check their system requirements, WoW is supported in Cedega
[05:48] <eck> jhornick: what do you mean?
[05:48] <Pelo> FlippantBird,  intel chip ?   aiglx
[05:48] <jhornick> http://quake.wr.usgs.gov/recenteqs/Quakes/nc40194055.htm
[05:48] <FlippantBird> ati
[05:48] <eck> oh
[05:48] <bimberi> corevette: enable the universe and multiverse repositories and it will be available in the package manager
[05:48] <puff> eck:  Bah, it's a permissions thing.  I can copy files to the ipod using sudo, but not via gtkpod (which starts as non-root).  Hm.
[05:48] <bakefy> I have tried about everything, what do I need to edit in the samba.conf to share to windows without authentication?
[05:48] <eck> i guess it just changed
[05:48] <jhornick> cefx: what? gentoo on a server?
[05:48] <eck> it was 4.4 a minute ago
[05:48] <cefx> jhornick: gentoo-hardened as a web server, yes
[05:48] <d13egu> cefx why?
[05:49] <jhornick> gentoo does bleeding edge/unstable you can use it on a dev server, but I wouldn't put it on a production server
[05:49] <eck> gentoo hardened is such an abomination
[05:49] <cefx> d13egu: FreeBSD is what I use on my web server, and it has something similar to portage called "ports"
[05:49] <eck> it is seriously a dead end
[05:49] <FlippantBird> how can i tell if im using aiglx or xgl?
[05:49] <eck> just use fedora or ubuntu which has stack protection on anyway
[05:49] <d13egu> cefx yes, the Ports is very good
[05:49] <Chistery> Sorry for crashing; I couldn't read your recommendations.
[05:49] <cefx> eww Fedora :P
[05:50] <cefx> use Freebsd for a webserver.
[05:50] <jlgaddis> Fedora?  Server?  No, thanks.
[05:50] <magic_ninja> hey are the new nvidia glx and kernel mods updates working?
[05:50] <FlippantBird> im a total noob, dont know wtf im doing please help
[05:50] <Pelo> FlippantBird,  this might help
[05:50] <K3nto> anybody know for  package download script for WoW?
[05:50] <rbil> FlippantBird: what type of graphics card are u using?
[05:50] <Chistery> How cheap CAN I go with nvidia cards while still maintaining a woW support.
[05:50] <Pelo> http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install_Beryl_on_Ubuntu_Edgy_with_GC_Drivers
[05:50] <d13egu> jlgaddis lol
[05:50] <cefx> I guess you could use ubuntu as a server, but ubuntu is meant as a desktop
[05:50] <FlippantBird> radeon 9600
[05:50] <Chistery> *?
[05:50] <eck> lol, well, gentoo isn't much better
[05:50] <cefx> gentoo is far better than crapora
[05:50] <cefx> :p
[05:50] <magic_ninja> too much compiling
[05:50] <K3nto> !SPM
[05:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about spm - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:50] <rbil> FlippantBird: ati uses xgl
[05:50] <K3nto> !script
[05:50] <d13egu> bsd is complicate no?
[05:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about script - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:50] <eck> we use gentoo at work on the dev servers, and it is a major pita
[05:50] <jlgaddis> With the exception of a Gentoo SQL server and a Debian box as a loghost, all my production boxes are running RHEL.
[05:51] <n-iCe> Where can i downlaod : CJLZ600LE-CUPS-1.0-1.TAR.GZ
[05:51] <peeps> anyone else experiencing difficulties with gmail all day?
[05:51] <Chicory_> Guys, sorry that I crashed earlier.
[05:51] <progrock> anyone have a radeon mobility 9000 and has gotten display drivers to work smoothly?
[05:51] <d13egu> jlgaddis ow yes... debian is good
[05:51] <Chicory_> What did you say regarding nvidia cards again?
[05:51] <eck> gentoo doesn't really backport security fixes, so you usually have to upgrade to get them
[05:51] <concept10> Anyone know how to turn autoremove off? this in annoying.. see screenshot: http://img169.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshot1uj7.png
[05:52] <FlippantBird> rbil is there a command to check?
[05:52] <progrock> i forgot to mention.. using feisty fawn
[05:52] <d13egu> in link: http://shadowmage.plinkomedia.com/images/screenshots/FreeBSD-2002-Feb-07.jpg what a X windows manager?
[05:52] <Hirvinen> cefx: Why not use Ubuntu as a server? Without the desktop parts, it's basically Debian with more company backing.
[05:52] <FlippantBird> im pretty sure im not using ati drivers
[05:52] <rbil> FlippantBird: u could try a locate xgl and see if anything comes up :-)
[05:52] <jlgaddis> Hirvinen: Perhaps now that they have LTS, but I wouldn't run a non-LTS version of Ubuntu on production boxes.
[05:52] <Chicory_> Guys?
[05:53] <cefx> Hirvinen: Too much hold your hand type stuff, I'd rather be 100% certain and rely on my own work in setting up/securing a machine.
[05:53] <FlippantBird> how can i tell what driver is being used?
[05:53] <K3nto> !package download script
[05:53] <concept10> Hirvinen, with more company backing?  how uninformed
[05:53] <cefx> We have no idea what you said, Cihcory
[05:53] <jlgaddis> Chicory_: We didn't say anything, we're ignoring you.
[05:53] <riotkitt1e> omgohnoeeees!!1! :ahem: GRUB's currently acting as if it is possessed. it's not giving me a menu when i boot, and is loading Ubuntu immediately, instead. I've made no changes to the system, and I have gone over menu.lst - it reads the way it should. What gives?
[05:53] <timfrost> n-iCe: Google search returns http://downloads.lexmark.com/cgi-perl/downloads.cgi?ccs=229:1:0:389:0:0&emeaframe=&fileID=1151&searchLang=en&searchLang=en
[05:53] <cefx> Chicory too
[05:53] <eck> i don't know of anyone who is actually using ubuntu in a production environment
[05:54] <jlgaddis> eck: Neither do I.
[05:54] <jhornick> riot: #hiddenmenu
[05:54] <Chicory_> I said I was planning on migrating from ATI to Nvidia, and wanted to know if anyone had any suggestions.
[05:54] <eck> it is hard to get people to switch in that space
[05:54] <Naik0> hey how can i start gimp in english instead of swedish?
[05:54] <JNeverMind> do any ubuntus come with 2.6.18?
[05:54] <ljlolel> here's my sources.list: http://pastebin.ca/377977  -- i update, but i can't see flashplugin-nonfree !!
[05:54] <K3nto> oh ok sorry
[05:54] <Hirvinen> concept10: Well, "more" was a bad choice of words. But the company backing Ubuntu is much closer to it than any company providing Debian support.
[05:54] <K3nto> a package download script for WINE
[05:54] <jlgaddis> Hirvinen: Perhaps because the kind of sysadmins who are running Debian don't generally need their hands held?
[05:54] <concept10> Hirvinen, HP provides debian support.  So does Dell.
[05:54] <Pelo> JNeverMind,  we're up to 2.6.17.11 right now
[05:54] <riotkitt1e> jhornick: hiddenmenu is commented out, as it should be. like i said, menu.lst is fine :P
[05:55] <cefx> Sun is backing Ubuntu, concept10.
[05:55] <cefx> That's pretty significant :)
[05:55] <cefx> one the world's largest server hardware providers.
[05:55] <jhornick> riotkittie: what is the timeout at?
[05:55] <concept10> cefx, Sun backs debian also
[05:55] <JNeverMind> im having trouble install ubuntu on asus p5b with jmb363 sata
[05:55] <eck> i think the big issue is that if you wanted company support, you'd just go with RHEL which has been proven better and gives you some more options for enterprise solutions
[05:55] <Hirvinen> jlgaddis, cefx: How exactly is an Ubuntu server administrators hand held in ways not done in Debian?
[05:55] <JNeverMind> jmicron site says use 2.6.18 at least
[05:55] <Naik0> someone now how i can start gimp in english?
[05:56] <cefx> Hirvinen: did I mention using Debian at all?
[05:56] <riotkitt1e> jhornick: 5. but i cant imagine that that matters as it's always been 5, and i've never not gotten the menu
[05:56] <jlgaddis> Hirvinen: I wouldn't run Ubuntu in production.  I don't really care to do massive upgrades of all my servers every six months.
[05:56] <jhornick> well if its 0 it auto boots
[05:56] <cefx> I'll use Debian when 4.0 it's out
[05:56] <jlgaddis> Hirvinen: I'm quite happy with my production RHEL servers, knowing they're supported for 5-7 years.
[05:56] <Hirvinen> cefx: Well, you didn't but you mentioned hand-holding.
[05:56] <cefx> is*
[05:56] <nexousNET> How do I put XFWM4 into my ubuntu?
[05:56] <jhornick> well if those are as you say, them im not sure offhand
[05:57] <cefx> Hirvinen: yep..hence why I prefer FreeBSD (i don't really use ports), slackware and gentoo.
[05:57] <K3nto> wow sorrry guys. i seem to ask questions before i read
[05:57] <d13egu> slackware i love it. :)
[05:57] <Hirvinen> jlgaddis: No one forces upgrades every six months. The normal releases are supported for 18 months on the desktop and for 36 on the server.
[05:57] <Naik0> someone now how i can start gimp in english?
[05:57] <FlippantBird> rbil, $ beryl-xgl reports "Detected xserver   : AIGLX"
[05:57] <cefx> lol
[05:57] <riotkitt1e> ugh. i'm not getting this at all. its so weird. :\
[05:57] <cefx> sometimes exploits, bugs and vulnerabilities forces upgrades, Hirvinen.
[05:58] <concept10> Anyone arguing about running the newest release of Ubuntu on a server doesnt know the first thing about being a sys admin.  Unless you need to support a particular hardware platform, in that case you could use back ported kernels
[05:58] <Hirvinen> jlgaddis: And then there's LTS where even longer upgrade cycle is desired.
[05:58] <n-iCe> what are:  	AIX, AIX 3.1.5, AIX 3.2, AIX 4.1, AIX 4.2.1, AIX 4.3.3, AIX 5.1
[05:58] <n-iCe> are compatibles with xubuntu ?
[05:58] <vrkhans> hi
[05:58] <cefx> yeah
[05:58] <eck> n-iCe: another operating system (unix)
[05:58] <riotkitt1e> oh wait. i just figured it out. <blushes profusely>
[05:58] <rbil> FlippantBird: I think AIGLX comes standard on Edgy now
[05:58] <vrkhans> i am trying to share my windows partitio in linux
[05:58] <puff> Hirvinen: IRRC, doens't ubuntu backport all security fixes to the older versions as well?
[05:58] <d13egu> the xubuntu for desktop is perfect
[05:58] <puff> Or is that just debian.
[05:58] <vrkhans> but i wont able to access it
[05:58] <FlippantBird> rbil: how do i switch to xgl?
[05:58] <n-iCe> doesn't work with xubuntu then ?
[05:58] <jhornick> what wm comes with xubuntu?
[05:59] <eck> concept10: wikipedia runs the latest fedora releases on their production servers, which is even more insane :-P
[05:59] <vrkhans> because it is own by root
[05:59] <Hirvinen> cefx: Those things *are* patched onto older versions as long as they are supported.
[05:59] <cefx> riotkitt1e: what did you just figure out?
[05:59] <riotkitt1e> xubuntu doesnt impressive me. xfce on ubuntu is ungodly slow. i've seen better presentations :P
[05:59] <vrkhans> i dont know how i can get permission for that as a user
[05:59] <jlgaddis> eck: Hhe, that's ironic, considering Fedora is moving all their servers to RHEL.  =)
[05:59] <puff> Come to think of it, I"m pretty sure it's debian that does that, and maybe ubuntu does the same.  Ubuntu certainly seems aggressive about contribuging bug fixes back upstream to debian.
[05:59] <concept10> eck, yes, real insane, unless they keep and patch things themselves
[05:59] <riotkitt1e> cefx: why i wasnt getting a GRUB menu
[05:59] <eck> and digg is using debian testing on production *gasp*
[05:59] <rbil> FlippantBird: probably best to /join #ubuntu-effects      to get help
[05:59] <Hirvinen> concept10: Did I say that the newest release should be used?
[05:59] <vrkhans> share my windows partion in liunx
[05:59] <FlippantBird> rbil ill try, thank you
[05:59] <vrkhans> help me
[06:00] <cefx> Hirvinen: regardless, I like my FreeBSD and slackware on servers, and gentoo on my boxes...and maybe kubuntu on a desktop :)
[06:00] <concept10> Hirvinen, to your credit, I didnt see you say that.  I was just making a point.
[06:00] <d13egu> cefx ;P
[06:00] <eck> actually, i went to a talk by the head dba at digg, and he was not happy with that situation
[06:00] <puff> eck: Why not?
[06:00] <K3nto> how would i use the script for wine?
[06:00] <puff> eck: And did his sysadmin agree with him? :-).
[06:01] <K3nto> http://kegel.com/wine/edgy.sh
[06:01] <Negima> it would seem that ALSA doesnt support my soundcard, or something of that nature. when i go to system->prefs->sounds, it comes up as Intel ICH
[06:02] <d13egu> cefx and debian, not like?
[06:02] <anonymeeee> is there a wiki page for burning iso images onto cd's?
[06:02] <anonymeeee> how do I burn iso images?
[06:02] <eck> i don't think he was pleased with the idea of new barely-tested software landing in production every day... my understanding is that the people who started the company didn't really know what they were doing, and then when digg got big they hired a bunch of people with experience who have spent the last year or so trying to fix all the mistakes they inherited
[06:02] <K3nto> do i simply copy "apt -get install /"
[06:02] <n-iCe> i need to write in the terminal:  su and my password
[06:02] <K3nto> and all the libraries under it in the terminal?
[06:02] <vrkhans> hi can any one help me
[06:02] <Hirvinen> cefx: Of course you are free to choose whatever you wish, but I see few reasons why Ubuntu would be unsuitable for a server.
[06:03] <n-iCe> i did it and say this:  Password:
[06:03] <n-iCe> su: Authentication failure
[06:03] <n-iCe> why ?
[06:03] <cefx> that's your opinion ;D
[06:03] <cefx> n-iCe: sudo su -
[06:03] <jhornick> su with no argument requires roots password
[06:03] <bimberi> anonymeeee: right-click-> write to disc
[06:03] <vrkhans> i am looking to share my windows partition in linux
[06:03] <jhornick> sudo needs the users, and sudo permissions
[06:03] <n-iCe> thank you
[06:03] <vrkhans> i dont know how, that partition is already mounted
[06:04] <puff> eck:  That typically happens, and not necessarily because the people there at the start didn't know any better, though that is a part of it.
[06:04] <anonymeeee> wow, thanks bimberi...I like it when it doesn't reading through 2 hours of instructions!
[06:05] <puff> eck: To rephrase, you take a lot of shortcuts and you wear a lot of hats in a small company, and then when you make it, you staff up and the new hires come in and shriek about how unprofessional your setup is.
[06:05] <Hirvinen> concept10: By the way, any newest release should be comparable to latest release of Debian after a similar time, which is usually considered fit for production use some time after the release.
[06:05] <bimberi> anonymeeee: np :)
[06:05] <puff> eck: Sometims they're right and yo learn something, sometimes they're right and you knew it but you had to livef with the compromise, sometimes they're idiots.
[06:05] <puff> eck: Er, that latter should be sometimes they're technically adept, but naive, and finalyl sometime they're just opinionated idiots.
[06:06] <BUMBACLOT> Added the following hosts to /etc/hosts.deny:
[06:06] <BUMBACLOT> 83.231.164.7 (eul0001102-pip.eu.verio.net)
[06:06] <Hirvinen> concept10: (Of course with the exception of Edgy, lower stability stability and polish standards of which were pretty much accepted since some time after the postponing of Dapper's release date.)
[06:06] <BUMBACLOT> wtf?
[06:06] <eck> puff: this is kind of interesting... i am a student, but i am doing SA intern work at a startup
[06:06] <concept10> Hirvinen, a new kernel release may work, have more features/drivers etc, but if you dont need them, there is no point in using it.  I try to keep as many holes closed as possible
[06:06] <K3nto> should "apt-get install cvs git-core cogito" just go straight into terminal?
[06:06] <puff> eck:  Ah, well, I started a small software company, it's doing okay but it grew and I left.
[06:06] <eck> we just got acquired by a big company (yahoo), and have spent the last six months trying to integrate into their systems, and it is a nightmare
[06:06] <puff> eck: I'll be happy to talk more about it sometime, privately.
[06:07] <rpc> where can i find fast packet switching in kernel conf?
[06:07] <puff> eck: It's always a nightmare :-).
[06:07] <rpc> can't see that one anywhere
[06:07] <eck> lol

[06:07] <Cuddles_in_KY> morning all.
[06:07] <K3nto> can somebody help me with some simple scripts?
[06:07] <vrkhans> this is how my fstab and my window partion is mounted : /media/hda4     vfat    defaults,utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0
[06:07] <Chicory_> Oh, blacklisted modules go where again?
[06:07] <nexousNET> Okay, I started to follow "http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=88393"
[06:07] <Pelo> so BENN92647  did you manage to get it working ?
[06:07] <concept10> Hirvinen, but I can't really comment on the latest Ubuntu kernels (for production server use)  I only use Sarge with a 2.4 with backported fixes.  It never goes down.  Ive seen some Ubuntu patched kernels crash with Xen
[06:08] <nexousNET> I'm going from Metacity -> XFwm4, I started it back up
[06:08] <Hirvinen> concept10: Of course newer than necessary shouldn't be used where stability is important.
[06:08] <BENN92647> pelo- its not windows XP familare is that for spain or something
[06:08] <nexousNET> and metacity is still in place.
[06:08] <vrkhans> now i can get permission for detult user
[06:08] <K3nto> eck: can you help me out?
[06:08] <Cuddles_in_KY> little ati problem. running 6.10, i have the ati drivers loaded, but composite out [this will eventually be a mythtv setup]  is rolling vertically. any suggestions on fixing this? i've been all over the forums, and tried several solutions to no avail.
[06:08] <concept10> Hirvinen, well, now we agree
[06:08] <eck> K3nto: with what?
[06:08] <ljlolel> here's my sources.list: http://pastebin.ca/377977  -- i update, but i can't see flashplugin-nonfree !!
[06:08] <Pelo> BENN92647,  it's just a title, you can change that  (it's french) it does not affect the boot
[06:08] <K3nto> just some scripts that are giving me errors
[06:08] <nexousNET> and when i kill metacity it starts back up
[06:08] <ljlolel> how do i get flash?
[06:09] <BENN92647> I have a hard drive with windows XP Pro I need it to show up on my boot list can someone tell me what I need to call it
[06:09] <eck> what kind of script?
[06:09] <K3nto> http://kegel.com/wine/edgy.sh
[06:09] <BENN92647> ok
[06:09] <Pelo> !flash | ljlolel
[06:09] <ubotu> ljlolel: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[06:09] <K3nto> it tells me what packages to download for wine
[06:09] <ubotu> Flash 9 (Final release) is now available for dapper-backports and edgy-backports. See !backports and !flash
[06:09] <mitsuikun> ljlolel, download flash
[06:09] <mitsuikun> then cd to flash-installer directory
[06:09] <BENN92647> so if if its named familae or whatever it show still boot up right?
[06:09] <concept10> Hirvinen, I would just hate for someone to use or pick a distro over debian because they think that Ubuntu receives greater support.  Which is false.
[06:09] <Cuddles_in_KY> anyone?
[06:09] <mitsuikun> and ./flashplayer-installer
[06:09] <Pelo> BENN92647,yes it will boot,
[06:09] <BENN92647> im geting a hall32dll error
[06:10] <ljlolel> but there are packages fo rit
[06:10] <wheels3572> how can i extract a file to a certain directory?
[06:10] <cefx> I think RHEL and Suse Enterprise get more support out of anything though.
[06:10] <nexousNET> Why is metacity still in my thing when I just installed XFwm4?
[06:10] <eck> K3nto: just run the script iwth bash
[06:10] <K3nto> !register
[06:10] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[06:10] <K3nto> bash?

[06:10] <eck> bash edgy.sh
[06:10] <Pelo> BENN92647, that's the windows install that's the problem,  try booting from the ide by changing the boot order in the bios , I am pretty sure you'll get the same error
[06:10] <BENN92647> ok so crap i need to go back and reinstall windows on the drive
[06:10] <eck> you need to be root
[06:10] <tunganet> anyone know how to disable the gnome panels when i run full screen apps?
[06:10] <K3nto> ARGGG
[06:10] <Pelo> BENN92647,  that is my guess,
[06:11] <K3nto> eck: how do i change to root?
[06:11] <BENN92647> ok good, then at least i can reload windows XP
[06:11] <nexousNET> Why is metacity still in my thing when I just installed XFwm4?
[06:11] <eck> K3nto: i.e. run it with sudo
[06:11] <cerberus> k3nto, sudo su
[06:11] <BENN92647> well at least linux ix xtill kicking LOL
[06:11] <BENN92647> uggh

[06:12] <concept10> cefx, you need to read this article" http://lwn.net/Articles/222773/
[06:12] <ljlolel> this page tells me that flash is in a package, but it doesn't exist on my system
[06:12] <BENN92647> be back in a few

[06:12] <eck> cefx: err, sudo -i is a better way to do that
[06:12] <Pelo> BENN92647,  Canadian,  just keep at it , see if you get anymore help from me :-)
[06:12] <cefx> changes to root but keeps your current shell
[06:12] <jlgaddis> "sudo -s"  =)
[06:12] <cefx> eck: oic
[06:12] <K3nto> okay i get it
[06:12] <benjoldersma> does anyone have any suggestions for getting vmplayer to bridge networking connections in feisty?  nat works for me, but I need to be able to access a database running in the guest os from the host, so I think I need bridging to do that.  any suggestions?
[06:12] <con-man> how do  I get linux to not manage my cd rom drive like a mac? when I press the eject button, I want it to eject now.  Not 90 seconds from now cause the device is busy

[06:13] <nexousNET> Anyone know how to get rid of metacity?
[06:13] <n-iCe> what should i do ?
[06:13] <benjoldersma> jhornick: because the ip is NAt'd I think
[06:13] <jhornick> that directory or file doesn't exist
[06:13] <ljlolel> Package flashplugin-nonfree is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[06:13] <ljlolel> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[06:13] <ljlolel> is only available from another source
[06:13] <Pelo> what is the usual port number for a newsreader ?
[06:13] <jlgaddis> Pelo: 119
[06:14] <jhornick> so, a vmware image will let you get around that how?
[06:14] <K3nto> eck: didnt work
[06:14] <Pelo> jlgaddis,  do you use pan ?
[06:14] <eck> K3nto: ok, just do this:
[06:14] <jlgaddis> Pelo: I have, but I don't very often.
[06:14] <K3nto> eck let me register then we can pm
[06:14] <eck> sudo apt-get builddep wine
[06:14] <Pelo> jlgaddis,  I get a no connection message,   any idea ?
[06:14] <K3nto> !register

[06:14] <eck> K3nto: that will basically install all the things the script would have
[06:14] <cerberus> Ok, does anyone know where I might find some fairly detailed informatino on how to get a webcam working after the usual avenues have been exhausted?
[06:14] <K3nto> okay
[06:15] <jlgaddis> Pelo: service is down, firewall in the way, could be a number of things
[06:15] <rbil> how can I get a more detailed bootup in Edgy, rather than just a sliding bar?
[06:15] <HiDensity> does ubuntu support nvidia 7800 GT?
[06:15] <Pelo> jlgaddis, ok , thanks, I'll wait to see what my isp has to say about it
[06:15] <eck> con-man: the cd cannot be ejected until all the applications using it have been stopped, it sounds like some app you are using sucks
[06:15] <Pelo> cerberus,  did you try the forum ?
[06:15] <eck> con-man: you can find out what it is with fuser and file a bug report
[06:16] <con-man> eck: how come windows doesnt have this issue
[06:16] <cerberus> had a look around, some people had issues with webcams using the same chip but resolved them simply, the same steps while improving the situation don't fix things for me
[06:16] <eck> con-man: i think in windows you can unmount a read  only file system even if it is being used, i am not sure
[06:16] <n-iCe> can any help me ?
[06:16] <nexousNET> I do apt-get remove metacity, and it says its still installed
[06:16] <eck> it is just a tradeoff of whether you want to do things cautiously or not
[06:16] <con-man> eck: its just that now whenever I put a cd into a drive, it wont read it anymore
[06:17] <jhornick> it keeps you from accidentally removing it at least

[06:17] <eck> con-man: it won't read new CDs at all?
[06:17] <jhornick> I know I hit the button on my laptop a shite ton
[06:17] <rbil> con-man will the eject command from a terminal eject the cd?
[06:17] <Cuddles_in_KY> little ati problem. running 6.10, the video card is an ati 9550. i have the ati drivers loaded, but composite out [this will eventually be a mythtv setup]  is rolling vertically. any suggestions on fixing this? i've been all over the forums, and tried several solutions to no avail.
[06:17] <con-man> rbil: no
[06:17] <con-man> eck: no
[06:17] <wheels3572> How do I extract a file to a specific directory?
[06:17] <eck> con-man: that sounds like a driver/kernel issue to me
[06:18] <yell0w> hey guys, has anyone tried to remove gnome-games ?
[06:18] <con-man> eck: Imma pastebinning my ps -A
[06:18] <eck> check dmesg
[06:18] <K3nto> eck: PMs
[06:18] <yell0w> hey guys, removing gnome-games requires removing ubuntu-desktop, which is kind of weird
[06:18] <bh_> Is the next release worth using now ?
[06:18] <yell0w> !_!
[06:18] <Pelo> jlgaddis, do you know anything about autentification errors ? in pan ?
[06:18] <bh_> or is it pretty broken ?
[06:19] <con-man> eck: that commant spits out more than my terminal can scroll!
[06:19] <eck> con-man: only the end is imporantt
[06:19] <nexousNET> woot, can I get some help on going from metacity-> XFWM4 before I screw up my ubuntu even more?
[06:19] <eck> it should show you the last things the kernel did that it thought was interesting
[06:19] <Cuddles_in_KY> little ati problem. running 6.10, the video card is an ati 9550. i have the ati drivers loaded, but composite out [this will eventually be a mythtv setup]  is rolling vertically. any suggestions on fixing this? i've been all over the forums, and tried several solutions to no avail.
[06:20] <Cuddles_in_KY> can someone please help me?
[06:20] <con-man> eck: my ps -A http://pastebin.ca/377997
[06:20] <con-man> eck: my dmesg http://pastebin.ca/377998
[06:20] <wheels3572> Cuddles_in_KY, do you have the latest drivers from AMD for your ATI driver?
[06:20] <eck> con-man: it is totem
[06:21] <eck> totem is a zombie
[06:21] <eck> and it probably has a FD on the cd drive
[06:21] <Cuddles_in_KY> wheels3572: yes, installed.
[06:21] <con-man> eck: it wont let me kill a defunct process tho
[06:21] <Negima> can someone help me get my sound working?
[06:21] <nowhere> hi, is there anyone available that has a Linksys WMP54G wireless card?
[06:21] <wheels3572> Cuddles_in_KY, Ok hmmmmmm
[06:21] <eck> con-man: of course not, that's why it's defunct!
[06:21] <Negima> for some reason, my sound card wont work with ALSA or OSS
[06:21] <con-man> eck: so how do I make it go away
[06:21] <eck> con-man: what is the ppid?
[06:21] <eck> you can try killing the parent
[06:21] <Negima> i have to go to system->prefs->sound
[06:21] <con-man> 9157
[06:21] <eck> if the parent is not important
[06:21] <Negima> and set all of them to Intel ICH
[06:22] <Cuddles_in_KY> nowhere: yes, and it sucks rocks on toast.
[06:22] <con-man> eck: how do I find the parent?
[06:22] <Negima> how do i get my sound working?
[06:22] <eck> the parent is the applicaiton whose PID is the same as totem's PPID
[06:22] <Cuddles_in_KY> wheels3572: i'm certain the problem is the vertical refresh, but no matter what i set it to, it rolls.
[06:22] <eck> try using ps -ef
[06:23] <jlgaddis> pstree
[06:23] <Negima> no one can help me get my sound working?
[06:23] <wheels3572> Cuddles_in_KY, sorry no ideas then at all
[06:23] <metalhedd> anyone use MPD? I can't connect remotely to my mpd server and i can't figure out why, it used to work under gentoo, but i can't connect to the ubuntu mpd server from another machine
[06:24] <wheels3572> Can ANY files be copied to the root aka filesystem section?
[06:24] <eck> so what happened is totem tried to end itself, but the parent is buggy and won't let it die, and probably totem has an open FD on the cd drive so you can't unmount it
[06:24] <cryedwolf> hey HELP i tryed to update my graphics drivers but its wrongly configured x server and i can't boot ubuntu
[06:24] <con-man> eck: hm
[06:25] <eck> it's kind of complicated, but that is what is causing the problem
[06:25] <wheels3572> cryedwolf, have you tried to use a previous kernel version
[06:25] <eck> and you can't kill totem so you can't force it to release the lock
[06:25] <con-man> eck: http://pastebin.ca/378006
[06:25] <Negima> can anyone help me get my sound working?
[06:25] <con-man> eck: there has to be a way to stop totem
[06:25] <eck> weird
[06:25] <jhornick> kill -s 9
[06:26] <jhornick> or 15
[06:26] <jhornick> I forget which one
[06:26] <jhornick> usually works
[06:26] <con-man> eck: what do you make of that last pastebin?
[06:26] <Negima> ...
[06:26] <eck> init should not have any zombie children
[06:26] <cryedwolf>  wheels3572 not that i know of
[06:26] <ramza3___> hmm, I think I removed the panel that holds where applications are minimized, when I minimize an app I dont have a panel that shows if it is still active or not
[06:26] <ramza3___> how do I get it back
[06:26] <DrMalo> wtf is ubuntu????
[06:26] <Negima> can no one help me??
[06:26] <con-man> eck: how do you make defunct processes go away
[06:26] <timfrost> metalhedd: by default, ubuntu doesn't let anything connect.  mpd is either not listening to the network, or is listening to localhost only.  You need to reconfigure it to listen to the network, then restart the daemon.  I don't use mpd, so don't know how to reconfigure it.
[06:26] <eck> con-man: i think it is a bug in upstart
[06:26] <jlgaddis> con-man: You reboot.
[06:26] <con-man> !ohmy | DrMalo

[06:27] <posingaspopular> Negima: did you try also
[06:27] <Negima> also?
[06:27] <eck> init should ALWAYS be able to end a zombie process
[06:27] <posingaspopular> alsamixer
[06:27] <Negima> im a noob
[06:27] <con-man> jlgaddis: there has to be another option
[06:27] <eck> file a bug in launchapd
[06:27] <posingaspopular> Negima open up a konsole
[06:27] <Negima> when i select alsa as the device to use, it doesnt work
[06:27] <eck> launchpad
[06:27] <cryedwolf> plz can some one help
[06:27] <Negima> i get an error when i test
[06:27] <jhornick> what proc is going defunct on upstart?
[06:27] <posingaspopular> cryedwolf: whats the issye?
[06:27] <eck> con-man: believe it or not, there is no other way
[06:28] <Negima> audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Could not open resource for writing
[06:28] <eck> you have to reboot
[06:28] <con-man> what? this is linux we are talking about
[06:28] <eck> lol
[06:28] <eck> ok, so here is what is supposed to happen
[06:28] <jhornick> he has a valid point
[06:28] <con-man> I would expect something like this from windows
[06:28] <eck> when a process ends, the parent is supposed to acknowledge this before the process can actually go away
[06:28] <eck> if the parent is buggy, you can normally fix it by killing the parent, then init becomes the parent of the child and will let the child day
[06:28] <eck> s/day/die
[06:28] <cryedwolf> i cant tell to anything else im running irc straight from unix
[06:29] <cryedwolf> *you
[06:29] <Negima> if i select Intel ICH as the device, it works
[06:29] <K3nto> wine runs more that just games right?
[06:29] <Negima> but it doesnt work with anything else
[06:29] <Negima> just that test
[06:29] <eck> but init is already the parent, so something is wrong with init, and in the case of edgy they just rewrote init (replaced it with upstart)
[06:29] <eck> so someone screwed up i think
[06:29] <con-man> oh all right, I will restart
[06:29] <con-man> >.<
[06:29] <Negima> and this is really frustrating me, and im gonna throw my monitor
[06:29] <con-man> brb
[06:30] <cryedwolf> ok how do i wipe ubuntu clean?
[06:30] <cryedwolf> im gonna start again
[06:30] <jhornick> with a squeegee
[06:30] <cryedwolf> hmm?
[06:30] <jhornick> bad humor, you can reformat the / partition
[06:31] <cryedwolf> *sigh*
[06:31] <jhornick> well if you want it clean and not just over files that's what you want to do
[06:31] <rbil> jhornick: what about regcleaner? :-)
[06:31] <jhornick> rbil: that's more comparable to a cotton swab
[06:32] <cryedwolf> regcleaner ?

[06:40] <anonymeeee> hi codecaine
[06:40] <anonymeeee> hellllp
[06:40] <anonymeeee> how do I kill a program?
[06:41] <K3nto> kill?
[06:41] <eck> anonymeeee: the kill command!
[06:41] <cryedwolf> ok brb ty
[06:41] <K3nto> you mean uninstall?
[06:41] <ToddEDM> im wondering if someone could help me get my video drivers installed
[06:41] <codecaine> use the command kill
[06:41] <cryedwolf> yhanx
[06:41] <tm4> ToddEDM: what card do you have
[06:41] <tm4> ?
[06:41] <cryedwolf> thanx
[06:41] <codecaine> example: kill xchat
[06:41] <eck> if kill doesn't work, try kill -9
[06:41] <jlgaddis> codecaine: No.
[06:41] <jlgaddis> "killall xchat"
[06:41] <jlgaddis> "kill" requires a pid.
[06:41] <codecaine> yea sorry
[06:42] <rbil> cryedwolf: working now? no need to reinstall the whole operating system, hey?
[06:42] <tm4> if xchat is still visible, but frozen or hung you can open a terminal "xkill" and then click on the window
[06:42] <tm4> that will kill the process, as well
[06:42] <ToddEDM> tm4 its a gforce go6100 in my laptop
[06:43] <tm4> ToddEDM I'm not familiar with nVidia as I have an ATI, but have you visited this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia?highlight=%28nvidia%29   ?

[06:44] <anonymeeee> it won't cancel
[06:44] <rbil> anonymeeee: another useful way to see processes and kill one is to use a program called htop
[06:44] <tm4> are they in a .deb format?
[06:45] <K3nto> if i already donwloaded the Amorak package, how cna i start it?
[06:45] <tm4> ToddEDM rather, but what type of package are they in - tar.gz, deb, etc?
[06:45] <Negima> is it possible to restart ALSA, or do i have to reboot?
[06:45] <ToddEDM> tar.gz
[06:45] <anonymeeee> how do I get htop?
[06:45] <rbil> K3nto: if u installed it from the repositories, it should now be in your menu
[06:45] <anonymeeee> is that on my system?
[06:45] <tm4> ToddEDM sorry for all of the questions, but are they pre-compiled binaries or are they source files that need to be compiled?
[06:45] <rbil> anonymeeee: sudo apt-get install htop          should do it
[06:46] <K3nto> rbil:nope
[06:46] <rbil> runs in a terminal after install

[06:50] <cowbud> jack_deltrino: is your wireless card supported by linux?
[06:50] <rbil> cryedwolf: how did u make out?
[06:50] <lilleman> My fresh 6.10 install keeps resetting my resolv.conf to the wrong DNS. DHCP is on, and I know the DHCP server is correctly configured
[06:50] <puff> argh... so I got a friend with a mac to use itunes to do update-and/or-restore on my nano, and then he transferred a song to it to test, and when I plugged it into my laptop it auto-mounted and amarok ran, BUT...
[06:50] <puff> ... it mounted the nano as read-only.
[06:51] <cryedwolf> dpkg is screwed cannot reconise username or password even tho i have'nt given root a password
[06:51] <ToddEDM> i think im gonna find a distro that will have the sound drivers and video drivers install themselves when i install the OS
[06:51] <ToddEDM> cause this sux
[06:52] <tm4> ToddEDM I tried to pm you. anyway, are you using a live cd??
[06:52] <ToddEDM> no im not
[06:52] <jhornick> ubuntu supports my dell laptop better than windows does
[06:52] <jhornick> which is sad shite
[06:52] <tm4> ubuntu has better support for things here on my desktop that vista does =/
[06:52] <cowbud> jack_deltrino: well answer or not you need to loook into using ndiswrapper apparently
[06:52] <jhornick> that's like saying 95 has better support than ME
[06:52] <lilleman> Someone that knows of this DNS errors?
[06:53] <cowbud> jack_deltrino: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=7319 that has all the info you should need
[06:53] <jhornick> what's the error?
[06:53] <cryedwolf> rbil?
[06:53] <tm4> haha - well, vista doesn't like my sound card that much right no
[06:53] <rbil> u said u could login with the username/password, no?
[06:53] <tm4> now*
[06:53] <lilleman> A fresh install of 6.10 keeps setting the DNS servers to wrong ones
[06:53] <Negima> grrr.... im gonna break this pc...
[06:53] <tm4> and creative has yet to release and drivers for it
[06:53] <jhornick> where are you getting dhcp from?
[06:54] <rbil> cryedwolf: is there just one user on that machine?
[06:54] <lilleman> jhornick: My own OpenBSD dhcp server that serves about 10 other computers
[06:54] <cryedwolf> yes
[06:54] <lilleman> it is correctly configured
[06:54] <anonymeeee> ok, I installed htop
[06:54] <anonymeeee> now what do I do with it?
[06:54] <tm4> ToddEDM I gotta go, sorry to leave you hanging, but its 1am where I am and I've gotta be up in a few hours
[06:54] <rbil> cryedwolf: and doing this ... sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg      the password doesn't work?
[06:54] <tm4> hey guys - someone mind helping ToddEDM get his nvidia drivers installed?
[06:54] <rbil> make sure caps lock isn't on
[06:54] <ToddEDM> no prob dodo
[06:55] <ToddEDM> im gonna install something different
[06:55] <ToddEDM> lol not dodo, dood
[06:55] <tm4> lol
[06:55] <lilleman> jhornick: Can I PM you instead,  this channel is just flooding :D
[06:55] <Taa5i> Can someone suggest a program to mount a disc image as a virtual cd drive please?  This is for a legitimate purpose on a dvd I legally own.
[06:55] <tm4> ToddEDM be patient - ubuntu is one of the best distros, but it takes some tweaking.
[06:55] <cryedwolf> oh wen i typed that it had a command colision
[06:55] <jhornick> if you want to, not sure if I can figure this one out before you can yourself though
[06:55] <ToddEDM> edubuntu, with the CD is better than this one installed
[06:56] <ToddEDM> at least i had sound
[06:56] <rbil> cryedwolf: never heard of a "command collision". you typed it in correctly?
[06:56] <cryedwolf> yes
[06:56] <rbil> cryedwolf: do ....  cd/etc/X11
[06:57] <rbil> cryedwolf: and then do .... ls -l
[06:57] <rbil> cryedwolf: any chance u have a backup there of xorg.conf?
[06:57] <cryedwolf> nope
[06:58] <rbil> do ... less xorg.conf
[06:58] <lilleman> jhornick: hm... some spam-issue thingie says I cant PM you
[06:58] <rbil> and look through the file
[06:58] <rbil> something amiss with maybe the correct driver?
[06:58] <jhornick> weird someother channel then?
[06:58] <cryedwolf> ok brb
[06:59] <lilleman> My DNS servers sets to 192.168.2.119 and search domain to key.chillispot.org
[06:59] <lilleman> I have no idea where those settings comes from
[06:59] <lilleman> it's not from my DHCP server at least
[06:59] <lilleman> Is there a way to manually just shut down the updates of /etc/resolv.conf, but keep the DHPC on the rest of the network?
[06:59] <jhornick> you can kill dhclient3
[06:59] <jhornick> on the client computer
[07:00] <jhornick> and just static the addresses
[07:00] <rbil> lilleman: if u setup a static ip for your box
[07:00] <lilleman> Yes, but I want dhcp in general, since I move around this laptop a lot
[07:00] <cauthan> yay, my sound is working
[07:00] <Taa5i> Can someone suggest please a program for creating and mounting a disc image as a virtual cd drive?
[07:00] <jhornick> what are you using for the dhcp server?
[07:00] <eighte> hey can anyone answer a question about a memory card reader
[07:00] <lilleman> jhornick: OpenBSD 3.6
[07:00] <ramza3> I want java installed (sun's java), but I also want open-office installed (which uses gcj?) what should I do
[07:01] <jhornick> I meant program
[07:01] <jack_deltrino> whoever was trying to help me, it won't work because i'm on the installation cd
[07:01] <lilleman> BSD dhcpd
[07:01] <jack_deltrino> i'm trying to install ubuntu with it
[07:01] <SurfnKid> is there a messenger for cli?
[07:01] <timfrost> Taa5i, what do you mean by 'virtual cd drive'?
[07:01] <jhornick> I've been using bind9 for local dns and was debating using the dhcp at some point
[07:01] <SurfnKid> as in MSN Messenger
[07:01] <cryedwolf> hey no such file or directory
[07:01] <jhornick> sufnKid: gaim-text
[07:01] <jack_deltrino> does anyone know how orinoco_pci works? i modprobe orinoco_pci and then, how do i get my wifi working? :(
[07:01] <SurfnKid> sweet
[07:01] <Taa5i> timfrost: I have a game DVD whose copy protection prevents it from being recognized under Linux, so I want to burn an image of it and mount that instead to see if it will work then.
[07:01] <SurfnKid> jhornick: thx
[07:01] <cauthan> beryl ftw
[07:02] <Flannel> !iso | Taa5i
[07:02] <ubotu> Taa5i: To mount an ISO disc image, type "sudo mount -o loop my.iso <mountpoint>" There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before burning. Burning .iso files: see !burn
[07:02] <jhornick> lille is this dhcp over wireless?
[07:02] <lilleman> jhornick: no
[07:02] <Flannel> Taa5i: no program required, mount has that capability built-in
[07:02] <Taa5i> Thanks Flannel :)
[07:02] <lilleman> jhornick: However, it is on the wireless _to_ but in this case it's wired
[07:02] <cowbud> jack_deltrino: well then I believe you are SOL unless you can get an ethernet card..
[07:03] <jhornick> had to check, sometimes they like to hope on other networks
[07:03] <jhornick> s/hope/hop
[07:03] <lilleman> Yeh, but I'm in a concrete basement here with no reception. :)
[07:03] <jhornick> yeah yeah, wired
[07:03] <lilleman> well, I'll go static now and see if I can google the issue. :)
[07:03] <cryedwolf> jeez guess im gonna have to start again
[07:03] <lilleman> or come back in a less busy time maybe
[07:04] <Flannel> jack_deltrino: ndiswrapper is on the CD, even the DEsktop CD, you'll need to add the repository (apt-cdrom) (it's a small repository)
[07:04] <jhornick> this channel is always fast I've noticed
[07:04] <jhornick> but that's just weird
[07:04] <noodles12> what's the command for copying directories?
[07:04] <lilleman> yes, I've never came across something like this before
[07:04] <jhornick> cp -r
[07:04] <cowbud> jack_deltrino: well there ya go flannel to the rescue
[07:04] <lilleman> noodles12: cp -R source destination
[07:04] <nexous> Where are GTK2 themes stored when using XFWM4?
[07:05] <timfrost> Taa5i, try copying the DVD to an ISO image with 'dd if=/dev/dvd of=image.iso ' then use mount. (change /dev/dvd to the actual device name)
[07:05] <lilleman> tnx and cya :)
[07:05] <Taa5i> timfrost: Awesome, I'm looking into it! :)
[07:05] <jhornick> anyone got a way to stream audio to an icecast2 server?
[07:06] <noodles12> when using cp -r, how do i make it to copy symbolic links?
[07:06] <nexous> Where are GTK2 themes stored when using XFWM4?
[07:06] <jhornick> it should copy the links, but not the actual data in the links
[07:06] <tom47> am i th eonly one with dapper that the firefox fixes broke?
[07:06] <jhornick> ill find the option for that
[07:06] <Flannel> nexous: You might have luck in #xfce, if you can't get an answer here
[07:06] <anonymeeee> anyone know how to use htop?
[07:06] <puff> Ah, fuck, looks like the mac itunes "factory restore" also reformatted this thing as HFS.
[07:06] <nexous> oh okay, didn't know that existed, thanks
[07:06] <jhornick> -L copys the data in the links
[07:06] <xtknight> which service do i need to restart to reload UUIDs for new partitions without rebooting?
[07:07] <tom47> are there known issues with todays firefox upgrade in dapper?
[07:07] <xtknight> !uuid
[07:07] <ubotu> To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[07:07] <carpediem> puff, language please
[07:08] <puff> carpediem: Sorry, been pounding my head against this for a couple days now.
[07:08] <Flannel> jhornick: you need a "source client" (I believe that's the correct terminology) like... ices2
[07:08] <xtknight> is there a global log for this channel somewhere?
[07:08] <Pooky> can anyone point me someplace on how to setup suspend2 on a macbook pro? I keep making attempts and failing :/
[07:08] <xtknight> like a log that's always running and accessible to everyone?  i asked this question and got an answer but forgot it...
[07:08] <xtknight> (the uuid /service restart question)
[07:08] <shadeofgrey> somebody talk me thru installing the newest version of ubuntu on my intel macbookpro?  damn...  i just took 4 brand name purgocets - this install is going to be fun..  rtheres no two ways about it kids... im higher than a prom dress in june
[07:09] <cwillu> !undelete
[07:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about undelete - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:09] <shadeofgrey> hook it up with the ill install instructions yo
[07:09] <jhornick> Flannel: <param name="device">plughw:0,0</param> is the only option for ices2 to listen on that it works with, but it is not frabbing audio
[07:09] <cwillu> somebody deleted a bunch of files from the trash by accident;  is there any way to recover them?
[07:09] <cwillu> not from this machine, btw
[07:09] <tom47> xtknight http://www.irclinux.org/freenode/ubuntu/
[07:09] <Flannel> xtknight: http://people.ubuntu.com/~fabbione/irclogs/?C=M;O=D
[07:10] <xtknight> tom47, Flannel: thanks!
[07:10] <xtknight> actually maybe i should just check my own logs, that's undoubtedly easier ;)
[07:11] <xtknight> aw too bad i didnt have logging
[07:11] <jhornick> hindsight
[07:11] <stoa> test
[07:11] <Flannel> stoa: ack
[07:11] <jhornick> syn/ack
[07:14] <cowbud> ack
[07:15] <steelb> how do i see my internets gateway
[07:16] <jhornick> steelb: with xeyes </bad joke>
[07:16] <steelb> :( ifconfig doesnt show it
[07:16] <bulmer> netstat -ran
[07:16] <steelb> thanks
[07:16] <bulmer> np
[07:18] <duckdown> I am trying to watch a video clip in my Firefox but it can't load the application/x-mplayer2 plugin.  How do I fix this?
[07:18] <K3nto> woot! wine is working!!
[07:18] <K3nto> pff that wasnt bad at all
[07:19] <K3nto> and wine can run just about any windows app/game?
[07:19] <jhornick> some beter than others
[07:20] <nexous> How do I get back to Metacity from XFCE?
[07:20] <SurfnKid> jhornick: is gaim-text available for the edgy distro that you know of
[07:20] <K3nto> sweeet
[07:20] <momoru> Anyone know how you add more resolutions to the screen resolution switcher in Gnome?
[07:20] <jhornick> not sure, its just questioned quite a bit over in #gaim
[07:20] <jhornick> I havnt looked for it yet though
[07:20] <SurfnKid> jhornick: ah ok
[07:21] <SurfnKid> m/j #gaim
[07:21] <SurfnKid> oops
[07:21] <SurfnKid> :P
[07:21] <jhornick> lawl its in beta4 +
[07:22] <_Krull_> xchat is sweet
[07:22] <patrick_> hey, can anyone help me out with getting around dvd encryption (something like dvdshrink)?  i'm struggling to get dvd's burnt
[07:23] <jhornick> here's the debuntu repos that has gaim-text, http://repository.debuntu.org/ I can't guarentee that it works
[07:23] <nexous> How do I get back to Metacity from XFCE?
[07:23] <solarce> follow the map
[07:24] <floundation> hey, can anyone help with dvd burning issues?  i need to find a worthwhile program to get around commercial encryption
[07:24] <cwillu> so, what are the odds of undeleting something from the gnome trash bin?
[07:25] <momoru> hey hey hey, he could merely be trying to back up his legally purchased media.
[07:25] <carson> does anyone know what the name of the gnome app is that handles the volume up/down" keys?
[07:25] <floundation> nah, i'm just trying to make netflix more effective
[07:25] <timfrost> nexous, log out, then choose Gnome as the session manager at the X login screen (assumes that ubuntu-desktop is installed)
[07:25] <solarce> me ftw
[07:25] <SurfnKid> !mount
[07:25] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[07:25] <nexous> timfrost: okay thanks,i'll have to reinstall ubuntu-desotp
[07:25] <nexous> thanks.
[07:26] <nexous> should I apt-get remove xubuntu-desktop to remove xfce?
[07:26] <nexous> or no
[07:26] <cwillu> floundation: you seem to be having difficulty with the concept of plausible deniability
[07:26] <eliran> hey
[07:26] <Doa4> hey
[07:26] <nwonknu-> sup
[07:26] <scizzy> hey guys, just got my wireless working but I can't figure out how to edit and SAVE the modules.conf file it wont let me edit and SAVE it
[07:26] <solarce> scizzy: hay guy!
[07:26] <solarce> scizzy: try editing as root!
[07:26] <scizzy> how do i do that
[07:26] <nwonknu-> ok
[07:26] <solarce> sudo emacs /etc/modules.conf
[07:26] <Doa4> unsure
[07:26] <scizzy> im very new, transfered from windows today
[07:26] <eliran> investigating
[07:27] <momoru> Anyone know how to configure the resolution switching utility in Gnome to add more resolutions?
[07:27] <timfrost> nexous, to remove the XFCE apps, you need to identify all the apps and remove them. Probably not worth the effort.
[07:28] <Madpilot> solarce, inflicting/recommending emacs is a bit much - s/emacs/gedit or s/emacs/vim...
[07:28] <SurfnKid> momoru: i always do dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg but should check depending on you video driver how to do so
[07:28] <solarce> :(
[07:28] <goban> whats a good program for making music
[07:28] <solarce> what's so hard about ctrl-x-ctrl-s to save?
[07:28] <solarce> goban: jokosher
[07:29] <scizzy> anyone else know how to edit and save modules.conf
[07:29] <scizzy> i can't seem to save my added line
[07:30] <ircleuser> i need help installing on my pc
[07:30] <jhornick> scissy: what does it say the reason is?
[07:30] <scizzy> uh, let me see...
[07:30] <cwillu> scizzy, probably not editing it via sudo
[07:30] <scizzy> You do not have the permissions necessary to save the file. Please, check that you typed the location correctly and try again.
[07:30] <jhornick> yup that's the reason
[07:30] <scizzy> so how do i edit this bad boy
[07:31] <jhornick> system files are generally not write allowed for normal users
[07:31] <cwillu> scizzy, gedit?
[07:31] <goban> solarce: thanks my friend wants a replacement for sony acid
[07:31] <jhornick> use sudo before the rest of the command to edit as the superuser
[07:31] <cwillu> scizzy: gksudo gedit /path/to/file will work
[07:31] <Flannel> scizzy: youneed to use sudo (or gksudo), gksudo for gedit, sudo for... nano or vim or whantot
[07:31] <scizzy> i have no idea how to use gedit... i just installed ubuntu 6.06 6 today from windows, so im very newb
[07:31] <ircleuser> i can't get passed the boot screen when trying to install edgy
[07:31] <cwillu> scizzy: you're probably using gedit if it looks like a normal editor
[07:31] <scizzy> ok let me try some of these suggestions
[07:31] <shadowjack> im on ubuntu edgy. i have the latest nvidia driver installed. it is configure correctly (nvidia instead of nv in xorg.conf) but opengl accelerated graphics are not functioning
[07:32] <cwillu> scizzy: open a terminal (in accessories), and type gksudo gedit /path/to/file
[07:32] <cwillu> or even just gksudo gedit, and then open the file from gedit
[07:32] <ircleuser> it shows the ubuntu boot up screen, but then just goes to black and does nothing...any help?
[07:32] <ircleuser> !install
[07:32] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues
[07:32] <Hudson> shadowjack does GLX and all that show enabled in the nvidia control panel
[07:32] <cwillu> ircleuser: ctrl+alt+f1 get you anything?
[07:32] <nexous> Okay, I just installed ubuntu-desktop again, metacity isn't on here though.
[07:32] <gabz> shadowjack: you need to make sure the glx is installed
[07:32] <shadowjack> Hudson: yes, thats the weird part
[07:33] <ircleuser> cwillu: nothing
[07:33] <cwillu> ircleuser: anything if you boot up in recovery mode?
[07:33] <Hudson> shadowjack is it enabled in your xorg.conf?
[07:33] <shadowjack> Hudson: yes it is
[07:33] <ircleuser> cwillu: how do I do i boot up in recovery mode?
[07:33] <nexous> How do I set my windows manager as Metacity?
[07:34] <NewbieUser00001> ok guys i did something stupid
[07:34] <cwillu> ircleuser: hit escape when you see the line about grub
[07:34] <shadowjack> gabz: i used envy this time. everything installed smoothly. i even get the nvidia logo when i reboot the xserver
[07:34] <timfrost> nexous, what does 'apt-cache policy metacity' report?
[07:34] <cwillu> NewbieUser00001: I bet I've done worse
[07:34] <NewbieUser00001> i accidently turned off administrative permissions for both the desktops I have set up, and I don't have a root password set
[07:34] <shadowjack> gabz: however, opengl 3d stuff isnt accelerated
[07:35] <NewbieUser00001> I thought I was only doing one account, and I mistakenly did both
[07:35] <gabz> shadowjack how do you know opengl isn't working ?
[07:35] <coffee-mug> hey guys
[07:35] <cwillu> NewbieUser00001: just reboot in recovery mode, and look up how to give yourself those permissions back via the command line
[07:35] <gabz> shadowjack what are you testing it with
[07:35] <shadowjack> glxinfo and nvidia-setting says it it working
[07:35] <solarce> hay guyz, is this seriose business?
[07:35] <coffee-mug> when I hit tab in bash and it finds an executable on the path, how can I figure out where it is, exactly?
[07:35] <SurfnKid> whats a command for moving? instead of copying
[07:35] <shadowjack> gabz: oh, ISN'T working
[07:35] <cwillu> mv
[07:35] <solarce> SurfnKid: mv
[07:35] <SurfnKid> k
[07:35] <jhornick> newbie: alternative route is using the cd, mounting the drive, then editing from the live envrionment
[07:35] <SurfnKid> :)
[07:35] <K3nto> has anybody here installed WoW on ubuntu? any problems?
[07:35] <ircleuser> cwillu: should I choose "Start Ubuntu in Safe graphics mode" or "Start or install Ubuntu"?
[07:36] <solarce> mv source destination
[07:36] <cwillu> K3nto: yep
[07:36] <jhornick> surfn: mv SEC DEST
[07:36] <cwillu> works fine, exept two things
[07:36] <solarce> K3nto: I hear it causes you to have no life
[07:36] <jhornick> SRC*
[07:36] <NewbieUser00001> ok... I think I can handle that, anyone have an idea where I'd start looking for the command line way to do that?
[07:36] <SurfnKid> what if its a folder
[07:36] <K3nto> solarce: lol
[07:36] <cwillu> icons get corrupted in the latest patch (you can change a wow.ini config option to fix it), and the minimap doesn't work while indoors
[07:36] <shadowjack> gabz: ive tested it with open glgames like tremulous, opengl screensavers and glxgears
[07:36] <solarce> SurfnKid: might need a -r
[07:36] <cwillu> everything else works fine
[07:36] <jhornick> k3n: only problem I saw in the 3 mins was not having video driver installed
[07:36] <SurfnKid> solarce: gotcha
[07:36] <K3nto> ive been out 4 nights this week
[07:36] <SurfnKid> well now i just need to mount my usb drive and try to move everything there
[07:36] <K3nto> and its just a game, like anything else
[07:36] <shadowjack> gabz: they all run like there is no nvidia driver installed and configured
[07:36] <solarce> K3nto: to a wow meetup?
[07:37] <cwillu> ircleuser: sounds like you've got the live cd in the drive, is that what you want?
[07:37] <K3nto> hahaha
[07:37] <K3nto> no, a court actually
[07:37] <gabz> shadowjack: what about planet penguin racer ?
[07:37] <shadowjack> gabz: however, it IS installed and configured. i even get the nvidia logo
[07:37] <nexous> timfrost: http://pastebin.ca/378051
[07:37] <cerberus> I'm trying to compile a webcam driver and it's failing because it cant find v4l2-common.h does anyone know where this file is or what package I have to install to get it?
[07:37] <K3nto> cwillu: any problems?
[07:37] <ircleuser> i want to install ubuntu and get rid of crappy vista
[07:37] <cwillu> K3nto: um
[07:37] <shadowjack> gabz: i will have to install that
[07:37] <nexous> timfrost: sorry it's a pain in the arse without the windows manager trying to close/minimize programs.
[07:37] <cwillu> K3nto: read the last 4 things I said :p
[07:37] <shadowjack> gabz: to try it out
[07:38] <gabz> shadowjack it shouldn't be that big.
[07:38] <K3nto> the minimap doesnt work inside?
[07:38] <K3nto> cwillu: ever? or just sometimes
[07:38] <cwillu> K3nto: the icon glitch was an ati thing I believe, and yep, the minimap is blank indoors
[07:39] <cwillu> never works indoors
[07:39] <K3nto> nuts
[07:39] <cwillu> something about how its rendered
[07:39] <shadowjack> gabz: its not a problem :)
[07:39] <K3nto> maybe thats an ati thing aswell
[07:39] <solarce> cerberus: try running 'apt-cache search v4l.*-dev' in a terminal
[07:39] <shadowjack> gabz: installing now
[07:39] <twilightkit> quit
[07:39] <cwillu> K3nto: I don't think it is, but I'm pretty sure people are working on it, might even be fixed by now (haven't played since the expansion came out)
[07:40] <K3nto> cwillu i see
[07:40] <nexous> timfrost: any ideas?
[07:40] <gabz> shadowjack if that fails paste your glxinfo output and i'll see i can see anything strange in that
[07:40] <timfrost> nexous, that means that it is installed.  If you choose Gnome as the session at the XDM/GDM/KDM login, you should get metacity as your window manager
[07:40] <cwillu> K3nto: a little crappy for raiding, less so if you know your way around though
[07:40] <cerberus> solarce, nothing happend
[07:40] <nexous> I selected gnome as my session though
[07:40] <gabz> !paste |shadowjack
[07:40] <ubotu> shadowjack: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[07:40] <K3nto> ill check it out and let you know
[07:40] <ircleuser> cwillu: im trying to install ubuntu for the first time
[07:40] <nexous> but I tried following a Metacity -> XFCE guide on ubuntuforums first, and i had to edit some stuff.
[07:40] <nexous> So I'm not sure if that's the problem.
[07:40] <cerberus> I'm assuming that means it hasn't been installed at any stage
[07:40] <jeeves__> can anyone help me change the res on my Laptop?
[07:41] <cwillu> ircleuser: have you installed it already?
[07:41] <ircleuser> cwillu: never
[07:41] <cwillu> ircleuser: just reboot then
[07:41] <solarce> cerberus: no, that was to potentially find what package might have the header files, open synaptic and search for v4l, look for any packages labeled development
[07:41] <shadowjack> gabz: ok :)
[07:41] <cwillu> ircleuser: the live cd doesn't record changes across a reboot
[07:42] <Toddedm> hey, where is a good list of commands for the command line that a guy could print off
[07:42] <Toddedm> so i can learn rm
[07:42] <cerberus> solarce, I have done that already, brings up a few odds and ends but nothing that looks like dev files
[07:42] <solarce> anything ending in -dev?
[07:42] <K3nto> cwillu: its asking for disc 2, but the tray wont open
[07:42] <gabz> jeeves__ : gnome or kde ?
[07:42] <ircleuser> cwillu: understood...but i click on start or install ubuntu...then the start up screen becomes b&w and then just blank...nothing happens
[07:42] <bulmer> Toddedm: try typing two tabs
[07:42] <Toddedm> just the most common commands
[07:43] <marx2k> Toddedm, man bash
[07:43] <cwillu> K3nto: unmount the drive, then it'll eject
[07:43] <solarce> man man
[07:43] <cerberus> solarce, not in synaptic
[07:43] <jhornick> k3nto: are you trying to install WoW now?
[07:43] <Toddedm> im in windows right now
[07:43] <timfrost> !cli | Toddedm
[07:43] <ubotu> Toddedm: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Manuals: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[07:43] <solarce> cerberus: then it may not be in the repositories, time to find a tarball
[07:43] <ircleuser> cwillu: checking the disk integrity now...and that screen is b&w
[07:43] <K3nto> jhornick: yep
[07:43] <Toddedm> im trying to install edubuntu right now, so im just getting some things ready while i wait

[07:44] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Manuals: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[07:44] <shadowjack> gabz: weird, it ran perfectly
[07:44] <cwillu> ircleuser: give it a minute;  you did have it up to a desktop once though, right?
[07:44] <K3nto> cwillu: right click disc and then click eject?
[07:44] <solarce> !rtfm
[07:44] <ubotu> Words like noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[07:44] <cwillu> K3nto: sure
[07:44] <solarce> :(
[07:44] <jeeves__> gabz:  Gnome.  I'm not sure if it's set @ the default 1440x900.  it looks kinda large right now.
[07:44] <solarce> oh
[07:44] <Toddedm> thank you timfrost
[07:44] <solarce> haha
[07:44] <ircleuser> cwillu:  now i am getting a list of errors:  [292.846808]  Buffer I/O error on device hdc, logical block 196526
[07:44] <SurfnKid> can I automatically mount a usb drive upon bootup ?

[07:44] <NewbieUser00001> hey, it worked.... i just loaded up in recovery mode and did "startx" and was able to make the change.  I forget who told me that, but thanx!
[07:44] <shadowjack> gabz: but opengl stuff doesnt. celestia doesnt, neither do any of my opengl screensavers
[07:45] <ircleuser> cwillu: never got it to run
[07:45] <K3nto> cwillu: it doesnt work
[07:45] <cwillu> ircleuser: what's the specs on the machine?
[07:45] <gabz> shadowjack : did you install the other gl games before or after you did the config ?
[07:45] <gabz> jeeves__: system ->  prefrences ->  screen resolution ?
[07:45] <ircleuser> amd athlon x64, 2gig, nvidia 7800 gt, 250gb drive
[07:46] <shadowjack> gabz: i dont know the order. why? i just ried celestia and its not working correctly
[07:46] <jeeves__> gabz:  one sec.
[07:46] <ircleuser> cwillu: amd athlon x64, 2gig, nvidia 7800 gt, 250gb drive
[07:46] <cerberus> solarce, the latest source I can find is for the 2.4 kernel
[07:46] <gabz> shadowjack: planet penguin racer is a opengl app
[07:46] <shadowjack> gabz: this is strange. why would racer run ok but nothing else?
[07:46] <jeeves__> gabz:  hummm, why didn't I see that earlier?  LOL
[07:46] <cwillu> K3nto: sudo umount /media/cdrom will work I believe
[07:47] <cwillu> ircleuser: buffer i/o error
[07:47] <jeeves__> gabz:  do you know how to shrink the icons, etc down a bit?  I like the look of my M$ boox (same system running the same res)
[07:47] <cwillu> ircleuser: okay
[07:47] <cwillu> ircleuser: reboot, hit f6 at the menu, and add nodma to the end of the line
[07:47] <jhornick> cerberus shouldn't you be able to apt-get source package
[07:47] <elias> In M$Windows there is a shortcut that closes all windows on the desktop (like Win+D keys combination). Is there something like that in KDE? Does anybody gave a clue?
[07:47] <gabz> shadowjack: i'm not sure why but it proves your opengl is working maybe it's celestia
[07:47] <jhornick> you can configure one
[07:48] <gabz> jeeves__: not sure what you mean
[07:48] <Supaplex> control alt backspace closes everything
[07:48] <cwillu> ircleuser: doesn't like something about your cdrom (I've had that happen a couple times;  works fine once installed, but doesn't get along with the installer)
[07:48] <shadowjack> gabz: but tremulous, and all of my opengl screensaver are not working
[07:48] <K3nto> cwillu: device is busy :/
[07:48] <Supaplex> :P
[07:48] <Talaman> system does not boot into gdm/startx
[07:48] <shadowjack> gabz: no other opengl app works!
[07:48] <elias> Supaplex: but is it possible to create a shortcut?
[07:48] <jhornick> ill brb in a few now
[07:48] <jeeves__> gabz:  well, in M$ (Windows), the icons are almost a quarter of the size they are in Ubuntu, not to mention I can display a LOT more information per page than I can here.
[07:48] <gabz> shadowjack: it could be a missing opengl extension sorry i'm out of idea
[07:48] <cwillu> K3nto: I'm just looking it up now
[07:49] <K3nto> k
[07:49] <cwillu> K3nto: I actually used crossover, and it was about 8-9 months ago that I installed it :p
[07:49] <cwillu> but I know it works
[07:49] <K3nto> crossover?
[07:49] <Supaplex> cwillu: cool. cross dresser for office? ;)
[07:49] <K3nto> oh
[07:49] <cerberus> jhornick, that woud be great in theory, if I knew what package I was getting
[07:49] <gabz> jeeves__: sorry mate no idea where to start on that one
[07:49] <K3nto> crossove iffice
[07:49] <shadowjack> gabz: thanks for trying
[07:49] <cwillu> that's the one :p
[07:49] <Hudson> Anyone have any Idea why the Nvidia binary driver would just suddenly stop working? I turned off my computer this morning when i went to work when I came home It said could not load nvidia kernel and would not load X
[07:50] <shadowjack> gabz: this is a real bother
[07:50] <gabz> shadowjack: post your glxinfo
[07:50] <Talaman> system does not boot into gdm/startx
[07:50] <shadowjack> gabz: ok
[07:50] <jeeves__> gabz:  no problem.  I think I just need to shrink the fonts, and icons down somehow.  If I could do that and get some good video editing software on here, then Ubunut will replace the M$ partition.
[07:50] <cwillu> K3nto: sudo umount /dev/cdrom ?
[07:50] <goban> has anyone gotten warcraft 3 to work on linux?
[07:51] <solarce> now to sit back and let this stupid tool update the timezone for the exchange server :/
[07:51] <solarce> bloody DST changes
[07:51] <cwillu> ircleuser: if that works, there'll be one more thing to do after it's installed to get the hd running at normal speed (nodma slows things down considerably, and increasing cpu usage)
[07:51] <jeeves__> gabz:  thanks again for your help
[07:51] <K3nto> cwillu: nope, device is busy
[07:51] <ircleuser> doesn't seem to be working...I downloaded the iso of the amd 64...maybe I should try another iso?
[07:52] <shadowjack> gabz: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8181/
[07:52] <cwillu> K3nto: you don't have any browsers or terminals open in the wow cd do you?
[07:52] <ircleuser> cwillu: its just hanging on a black screen with a cursor in the corner...weird
[07:52] <cwillu> ircleuser: give it a couple more minutes, it might just be slow
[07:53] <K3nto> cwillu: nope nothing open
[07:54] <K3nto> cwillu: no terminals or browsers
[07:54] <ircleuser> cwillu: also after the boot options screen, it shows the ubuntu boot up screen in b&w and scrambled
[07:54] <brads> anybody got a way to make Flash ide use IE under wine?
[07:54] <xine> hai everyone
[07:54] <jeeves__> gabz:  I figured it out.  you have to change the font size.
[07:54] <abasinisvacant> hy xine
[07:54] <xine> no,hehe
[07:54] <cwillu> K3nto: you can try umount -fl /dev/cdrom,
[07:55] <cwillu> but this doesn't sound right
[07:55] <jhornick> gaim-text time
[07:55] <gabz> jeeves__: cool glad you found your solution
[07:55] <cwillu> ircleuser: what video card?
[07:55] <gabz> shadowjack: sorry mate can't find a reason
[07:55] <ircleuser> nvidia 7800 gt
[07:55] <K3nto> cwillu: nope not found
[07:55] <cwillu> um
[07:56] <cwillu> not found, or busy?
[07:56] <shadowjack> gabz: thank you for giving it a shot :)
[07:56] <K3nto> not found
[07:56] <brads> Any Flash IDE in ubuntu users here at all
[07:56] <jeeves__> gabz:  now to fix that little annoying thing that makes me remove ALL power to the laptop when I shut it down, and mabey get come CPU scalling going.
[07:56] <cwillu> sorry, did you sudo that too?
[07:56] <K3nto> yup yup
[07:57] <capitalidea> Help! (gnome-session:11504): Gtk-WARNING **: Theme file for Neutral_Plus has no directories
[07:57] <cwillu> so sudo umount /dev/cdrom said busy, and sudo umount -fl /dev/cdrom said not found?
[07:57] <capitalidea> After that message, the gnome apps just quit
[07:57] <gabz> jeeves__: i'm still working on my own laptop power problems  battery status is all over the shop
[07:57] <capitalidea> So I can't login to gnome and I can't change my theme
[07:57] <cwillu> ircleuser: try it in safe graphics mode I guess, still putting nodma on with f6 (hit f6 after highlighting the option)
[07:57] <gabz> shadowjack: go play some planet peguin racer then come back and ask someone else :P
[07:58] <jeeves__> gabz:  yea, mine says it's dead as a stone, but the computer still runs.  I hate this Toshiba, you can't do anything with the hardware.  It's all locked up
[07:58] <AlexanderSomma> I'm on the verge of cracking my own scull... my frickin Edimax ew-7128g cards are generating two wireless connections in my network settings....
[07:58] <gabz> jeeves__: how did you know i had a toshiba aswell :P
[07:58] <K3nto> cwillu:  umount -fl /dev/cdrom now says not mounted
[07:58] <jeeves__> gabz:  just PRAY yours dosen't go down.  they have HORID support here in Canada.
[07:58] <cwillu> K3nto: k, try to eject it then
[07:59] <gabz> jeeves__: if you type in a terminal acpi -V it gives better information that then gnome app
[07:59] <cwillu> K3nto: otherwise, there's two other general methods though;  you can copy the contents of each cd to a single folder, and run the installer from there, or you can make iso's of the cd's, and mount them that way
[07:59] <shadowjack> gabz: i suspect that something in the background is running that is messing things up. i say this because 3d stuff was running fine until yesterday
[07:59] <jhornick> acpitool isnt bad either, but that might not be in the base install
[08:00] <encompass> I am creating a computer to be demoed at my university, how do I restrict the system so that all changes are restored to original when a new user log's in?
[08:00] <K3nto> cwillu: i got it
[08:00] <gabz> jeeves__: never had a issue getting one repaired in australia they didn't even ask why my dead hard drive didn't contain windows
[08:00] <jeeves__> gabz:  will do.  Honestly, I don't care that much.  it's just a pain in the ass.  I only have it for security audits on networks, and for playing with my Ubuntu servers.
[08:00] <jhornick> encompass: dont let them change anything
[08:00] <cwillu> K3nto: k
[08:00] <cwillu> http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=5606 has some other info that might be useful
[08:00] <capitalidea> Can anyone help? I'm quite stuck! I need to know how to change my theme while I'm unable to open gnome-theme-manager.
[08:00] <encompass> jhornick: oh yeah.. you mean like stand there and slap there hand? :P
[08:01] <cwillu> looks like the minimap might be just ati too
[08:01] <jeeves__> gabz:  this satellite P20 has had everything (except the LCD and HDD replaced), and now the LCD's backlight dosen't allways work.  it's less that 2 years old.
[08:01] <AlexanderSomma> encompass: you could have a script to copy
[08:01] <AlexanderSomma> encompass: over the old setting as they logged in
[08:01] <jhornick> encompass: dont give them write permission to the system, and you could have it restore the home dir from skel
[08:01] <AlexanderSomma> encompass: most settings are stored in the ~/. dirs
[08:01] <dangle> is there an apt-get install version of limewire
[08:01] <AlexanderSomma> amd ~/. files
[08:02] <gabz> jeeves__: ouch i guess your buying an ibm next time :P
[08:02] <dangle> or a place i can check what apt-get has for me to install
[08:02] <AlexanderSomma> dangle: use automatix
[08:02] <capitalidea> Is +R on in here?
[08:02] <jhornick> apt-cache search
[08:02] <encompass> jhornick: I think gnome freaks if you do that
[08:02] <dangle> what's automatix
[08:02] <AlexanderSomma> http://www.getautomatix.com/
[08:02] <jeeves__> gabz:  no, I'll buy something custom built.  I don't like IBM to start with.  if I could, I'd pitch the ones @ work off the roof.
[08:03] <K3nto> cwillu: om
[08:03] <encompass> and I want people to beable to "play" with the settings... jsut have then restored as they logout or in
[08:03] <gabz> jeeves__: get a olpc i've seen them a lca 2007 it will work with linux or your money back :P
[08:03] <encompass> system76 is nice
[08:03] <AlexanderSomma> encompass: back up the settings user settings
[08:04] <capitalidea> PENIS pEnIs harbl penis Does anyone read me? R+ must be on ... damn it
[08:04] <simondaking> I have windows xp installed i want to replace it with ubunto what do i do?
[08:04] <jeeves__> gabz:  nice.  So, do you know anything about setting up SATA drives through a non-RAID support PCI card to act as a RAID-0 set?
[08:04] <encompass> AlexanderSomma: and where do I put the script to overwrite there settings?
[08:04] <ircleuser> cwillu: got to the tan screen...heard the login sound, but video is scrambled (except for the mouse cursor)
[08:04] <simondaking> i got the cd burned but can only run it off the cd
[08:04] <gabz> jeeves__: nope
[08:04] <encompass> AlexanderSomma: I could mount the /home in ram for fast boot too
[08:04] <AlexanderSomma> encompass: the simplest is to have gnome launch it for you.
[08:05] <Madpilot> simondaking, when you run it off the CD, there's an icon on the desktop labelled "Install" - double click that to install ubuntu
[08:05] <capitalidea> :S
[08:05] <h1st0> mplayer in a terminal rocks
[08:05] <capitalidea> console*
[08:05] <capitalidea> framebuffer console.
[08:05] <jhornick> h1st0 gaim-text is impressive so far as well
[08:05] <AlexanderSomma> encompass: does that help?
[08:05] <jeeves__> Gabz:  I've got a Proliant DL-380 server here with 63Gb of SCSI 10K drives in it, but I was thinking about 2 500Gb SATA (300Mb trans) HDDs as the main storage for the content on my new site.
[08:06] <capitalidea> h1st0: Have you tried mplayer on gamecube linux?
[08:06] <cwillu> is it possible to dpkg-reconfigure on the live-cd?  or how do you get around a bad detected video config on the live cd (when safe graphics doesn't work)?
[08:06] <gabz> jeeves__: i have the budget of a uni student because i am one i won't lie to you i've never gotten to play with hadware like that
[08:07] <jhornick> live-cd sucks at video card, doesnt carry updated drivers, nor restricted ones. but otherwise you can still edit sources.list and install/config them
[08:07] <cwillu> jhornick: easiest way to get a basic vesa config going?
[08:07] <h1st0> cwillu: Yeah you can do that on the lived.  You can also install video cards.
[08:07] <cwillu> ircleuser: I'm working on it :p
[08:08] <h1st0> cwillu: gksu /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change it to vesa then ctrl+alt+backspace to restart X
[08:08] <cwillu> h1st0: can you take over helping ircleuser getting the live cd up?  I need to leave for 30 minutes
[08:08] <cwillu> re: the video
[08:08] <h1st0> cwillu: safe mode didn't work?
[08:08] <jeeves__> gabz:  welcome to my life.  I aquired this Generation 1 prolient through some "outside" channels.  The HDDs here are kinda cheap (all the $$ comes from my night job working @ the bar).
[08:08] <ircleuser> cwillu: thanks for all your help cwillu!
[08:09] <h1st0> ircleuser: so whats up you can't start X on the livecd?
[08:09] <BENN92647> can someone please tell me how to enable my printer its an emergency
[08:09] <encompass> AlexanderSomma: can't a user jsut remove that?
[08:09] <cwillu> ircleuser: h1st0:  comes up scrambly in safe-graphics, and not at all in regular, from what I got
[08:09] <jeeves__> gabz:  I was just thinking that if I used 2 64bit PCI single channel SATA cards, then did software RAID-o (to mirror) it, then I could get the speed I need out of it, and I woulden't loose the data if one drive died.  Then keep the database and main site files on the 10K drives for the speed.
[08:09] <ircleuser> h1st0: starts up...I get to the tan screen see my mouse cursor.  looks like a scrambled window is in the center of my screen
[08:09] <h1st0> ircleuser: okay can you atleast get to a terminal by ctrl+alt+f1 so we can get you in X
[08:09] <BENN92647> i need to print my resume and i dont know why its not working
[08:10] <klimraamkosie> How do I enable the scroll wheel on my mouse?
[08:10] <encompass> well I guess I will keep googleing... I need a solid answer
[08:10] <jmazaredo_> can anyone pm me need help for https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSambaPDC?
[08:10] <ircleuser> h1st0: ctrl+alt+f1 isn't doing anything
[08:11] <h1st0> ircleuser: hrm... F2?
[08:11] <klimraamkosie> haha ok now it works...
[08:11] <BENN92647> cpk1-can you tell me how to enable my printer please
[08:11] <h1st0> ircleuser: F1-F6 should bring up virtual terminals
[08:11] <ircleuser> h1st0: nothing with f2 either
[08:11] <klimraamkosie> Why would you disable your printer?
[08:11] <ircleuser> weird
[08:11] <jhornick> ctrl+alt+f[1-6] 
[08:11] <h1st0> ircleuser: well what type of video card do you have?
[08:12] <BENN92647> no its not working i need to get it working
[08:12] <ircleuser> nvidia 7800 gt
[08:12] <h1st0> ircleuser: well thats what I have safe graphics mode should work.
[08:12] <jeeves__> gabz:  ideas?
[08:12] <h1st0> ircleuser: what cd are you tyring to use?
[08:13] <jeeves__> can anyone add to this convo about SATA drives and RAID support?
[08:13] <ircleuser> edgy...but I got it from a friend
[08:13] <ircleuser> h1st0: should I download another iso?
[08:13] <gabz> jeeves__: i don't get to play with server hardware so i'm not sure at all where to start
[08:13] <h1st0> ircleuser: well Nah I would just check the cd for defects on the main menu.
[08:14] <h1st0> ircleuser: make sure you media is good.
[08:14] <[SExyBItch] > hi
[08:14] <jeeves__> gabz:   do you do websites?
[08:14] <ircleuser> h1st0: k...
[08:14] <gabz> jeeves__: yes but i pay somone else to manager the servers so i can abuse them when they are not up
[08:14] <h1st0> ircleuser: the only other thing i'm thinking is if you can hit ctrl+alt+f1 as soon as the tan screen comes up.  You may be able to get to a terminal then we can try different video drivers.
[08:14] <oxycolton> cultdeadcow.com - OracleGD.com - DSSKCORP.com - rqporn.com
[08:14] <ircleuser> h1st0: i also have a amd athlon 64 x2
[08:14] <oxycolton> Those sites all run ubuntu.
[08:14] <h1st0> ircleuser: is this a 64bit cd?

[08:16] <ububabe> ohhh nice
[08:16] <ububabe> so hows things
[08:16] <h1st0> ircleuser: yeah check the cd for defects.  Make sure we are workign with a good cd.  There is also a F button to hit on the main menu will show options.  Perhaps we can specify vesa drivers there.

[08:20] <Hobbsee> bloody chanserv.
[08:20] <adam_> whoah, am I still in #ubuntu?
[08:20] <jhornick> thankyou
[08:20] <h1st0> ircleuser: and burn it at like 4x just to be sure.
[08:20] <SoftIce> hi, how lond will update edgy get releases for?
[08:20] <h1st0> ircleuser: and when you get that done just chose safe graphics mode and all should be well.
[08:21] <Hobbsee> SoftIce: 18 months since release.
[08:21] <Madpilot> SoftIce, until April 2008 - 18 months after it's release
[08:21] <h1st0> Hobbsee: ty
[08:21] <SoftIce> Madpilot: sh2t! ? then what
[08:21] <h1st0> lol cdc I can't believe they're still around.
[08:21] <SoftIce> then you forced to upgrade?
[08:21] <SoftIce> when will dapper reach its end life?
[08:22] <Madpilot> SoftIce, there's an Ubuntu release every six months, so yes, you get 18months per release
[08:22] <Hobbsee> SoftIce: 3 years after it was released, 5 on the server.
[08:22] <Madpilot> Dapper is special, it's getting 3yrs
[08:22] <SoftIce> why won't they give edgy 3 years?
[08:23] <Madpilot> because it's not an LTS - Long Term Support) release
[08:24] <SoftIce> Madpilot: well dapper will have its end life same time as edgy anyway
[08:24] <SoftIce> ?
[08:24] <SoftIce> as it should be around the same time
[08:25] <Madpilot> no, Dapper will get more time - another full year past Edgy's EOL
[08:25] <Flannel> SoftIce: Edgy gets 18 month, Dapper gets 3 years, Edgy is four months after Dapper, so Dapper will be around for about a year longer
[08:25] <SoftIce> I see
[08:25] <SoftIce> *Sigh* when will the next LTS be released?
[08:25] <Flannel> Probably 8.04 or 8.10
[08:26] <jeeves__> gabz:  I think I've found the soluition to my issue with the RAID
[08:26] <SoftIce> 8.04 means what? version or is version something to do with date/month ?
[08:26] <Flannel> SoftIce: Year.Month
[08:26] <SoftIce> err year/month ?
[08:26] <Madpilot> there's no firm word yet - it might be 7.10, Feisty+1
[08:26] <SoftIce> I see
[08:26] <SoftIce> thats a long time
[08:26] <SoftIce> so you saying using ubuntu on a server is a bad idea?
[08:26] <Flannel> Madpilot: It won't be Feisty+1, that'd... well, first, only three in the cycle, also, it'd cut Dapper in Half.  Sort of silly to have two LTSs for 18 months
[08:26] <SoftIce> as you forced to upgrade quite a bit
[08:27] <Flannel> SoftIce: five years is "quite a bit"?
[08:27] <SoftIce> yes, it is
[08:27] <SoftIce> now thing is I have 6 servers running edgy
[08:27] <SoftIce> I can't downgrade back to dapper
[08:27] <SoftIce> so what would you sugest?
[08:27] <riaal> good morning all, Im having problems installing ubuntu. I have tryed to google it but I can't find anything. Can someone use to this check if my graphic card is suported? Sapphire X800GTO Ultimate
[08:28] <Madpilot> SoftIce, why did you put Edgy on all of them without checking into support cycles?
[08:28] <goban> trying to get WC3 frozen throne to run help! the first error message is fixme:cdrom:CDROM_DeviceIoControl Unsupported IOCTL 2d1400 (type=2d access=0 func=500 meth=0)
[08:28] <SoftIce> Madpilot: can't really answer that question, any sugestions?
[08:28] <SoftIce> how safe is an upgrade?
[08:28] <SoftIce> I need 100% garantees :)
[08:29] <Flannel> SoftIce: assuming you're using only official repositories, fairly.
[08:29] <riaal> How to get my graphic card to work? Sapphire X800GTO Ultimate? Won't start xserv =/
[08:29] <clearzen> SoftIce: Nothing is 100 %
[08:29] <TeePOG> has anyone seen the Tectonic.co.za today?
[08:29] <SoftIce> i'm using some backports
[08:29] <MM2> SoftIce: I have tried to upgrade many times, and all times failed :/
[08:30] <SoftIce> like, sendmail bri stuffed asterisk, etc
[08:30] <TeePOG> funniest thing ever, the Virtual Richard M Stallman package
[08:30] <SoftIce> MM2: thanks :)
[08:30] <SoftIce> you just gave me a boost of confidence
[08:30] <MM2> SoftIce: :P jut try it
[08:30] <SoftIce> i'm going to have to try stage the upgrade them
[08:30] <SoftIce> I can't just try if it breaks
[08:30] <SoftIce> im ******
[08:30] <SoftIce> as I will schedule downtime, but it can't be to long
[08:31] <MM2> SoftIce: if it is a server, then try upgrading backupserver first?
[08:31] <riaal> pleas, how to check if its even possible to get my graphic card to work? (Sapphire X800GTO Ultimate)
[08:31] <Flannel> SoftIce: You've got 16 months to schedule downtime
[08:31] <Flannel> er, 14, whatever.
[08:32] <jhornick> flannel: great approach
[08:32] <MM2> SoftIce: and if it works, then do not try to fix it! :)
[08:32] <SoftIce> *smile* aggg, I do a full server build in a max of 2 hours
[08:32] <SoftIce> i'll just backup everything incase
[08:32] <riaal> =((
[08:32] <SoftIce> thanks for all the help
[08:32] <SoftIce> ubuntu support * is much more helpfull than fedora
[08:32] <SoftIce> I hate those guys in that channel :)

[08:57] <jeeves__> Flannel:  ok.  I'm just trying to figure out how I'll get my RAID set up.  I'd like to do a RAID-0 set, then mount a virtual web directory to that RAID set, but maintain the main files on the root drives.
[08:57] <tabman> Flannel: is there a way to check if universe is enabled ? yes I did apt-get update
[08:57] <Xeroxed1> clearzen: it says unable to open kboot.conf : Read only file system
[08:57] <Flannel> Talaman: You don't need to enable universe.
[08:57] <ardchoille> tabman: tab completion bit him ;)
[08:57] <Flannel> tabman: And you're on edgy?  Pastebin your sources.list
[08:57] <Talaman> oh
[08:57] <talgot> hi jay
[08:57] <Talaman> sheesh
[08:57] <clearzen> Xeroxed1: what file did you copy over? what was the path?
[08:58] <tabman> Flannel: dapper
[08:58] <Xeroxed1> i typed cp /etc/kboot.conf.backup /etc/kboot.conf
[08:58] <Flannel> tabman: that package was for edgy, it may not be in dapper
[08:58] <jacquesmerde> am i right that ubuntu (if used via synaptic) cannot remove the dependencies installing with a package when later removing it? and there isnt even a log to look up so you can do it manually? if so, why doesnt synaptic switch to aptitude as a back-end?
[08:58] <Flannel> tabman: er, except it seems that it is.  so, pastebin your sources.list
[08:58] <jeeves__> flannel:  did you get the one about the drive setup?
[08:59] <Talaman> system does not boot into gdm/startx
[08:59] <clearzen> Xeroxed1: I should've been more specific, I wanted you to copy over the configuration file for the resolution. The kboot file is a different issue
[08:59] <bluefox83> jacquesmerde, you are incorrect
[08:59] <Flannel> !raid | jeeves__ this may be of assistance
[08:59] <ubotu> jeeves__ this may be of assistance: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[08:59] <clearzen> Xeroxed1: You still have a copy of the orignal kboot image right.?
[08:59] <Xeroxed1> I think so.
[09:00] <clearzen> Xeroxed1: I have one if you don't
[09:00] <incorrect> bluefox83: lies i am incorrect
[09:00] <jacquesmerde> bluefox83: how am i wrong? i hate being ignorant
[09:00] <jeeves__> flannel:  thanks.  I'll do some reading.
[09:00] <Xeroxed1> clearzen: what was that file named?
[09:00] <kotar> anyone tell me how to turn off the alt + mouse wheel window transparency?
[09:00] <bluefox83> jacquesmerde, it keeps logs and can remove dependencies when removing a package
[09:01] <tabman> Flannel: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8183/
[09:01] <clearzen> Xeroxed1: follow this it should work http://psubuntu.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=13
[09:01] <bluefox83> jacquesmerde, synaptic is just a front-end, dpkg is what handles the packages..and it keeps logs of everything
[09:01] <jacquesmerde> i was also wondering that the solution to installing java and flash is to install via firefox, but doesnt that mean they wont be installed via apt-get and thus won't be updatable?
[09:01] <cirbdenial> where are all the .deb files on packages.ubuntu.com ?
[09:02] <cirbdenial> not the source files, but the compiled result
[09:02] <Flannel> tabman: er, that'll work.  You're sure you've updated?  And 'apt-cache search flpsed' returns nothing?
[09:02] <Xeroxed1> clearzen: thats the tutorial I followed
[09:02] <jacquesmerde> bluefox83: where is dpkg's log? i've always used aptitudes own one
[09:02] <h1st0> cirbdenial: you can download a deb with aptitude but they are also there.
[09:02] <Xeroxed1> clearnzen: for somereason i thought it said 1080i
[09:02] <bluefox83> jacquesmerde, you could use automatix, although strictly speaking no one here will offer support for it...
[09:02] <clearzen> Xeroxed1: what error did it give you?
[09:02] <Flannel> bluefox83: Please don't recommend automatix.
[09:02] <tabman> Flannel: I've updated again and it is working now, though I updated it twice earlier as well
[09:02] <Xeroxed1> clearzen: i thought it said 1080i not 1080p  So now my os wont showup
[09:02] <bluefox83> see
[09:03] <Talaman> brb
[09:03] <clearzen> Xeroxed1: I see
[09:03] <cirbdenial> h1st0: i don't have access to aptitude. i'm on a non-ubuntu machine and the ubuntu machine i want to install the deb for has no network access
[09:03] <clearzen> Xeroxed1: one second
[09:03] <Xeroxed1> clearzen: Now i dont know how to change the back to default values
[09:03] <Flannel> !java | jacquesmerde
[09:03] <Toddedm> whats automatix?
[09:03] <ubotu> jacquesmerde: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[09:03] <Flannel> !flash | jacquesmerde
[09:03] <ubotu> jacquesmerde: 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
[09:03] <cirbdenial> h1st0: so how do i grab the deb from packages.ubuntu.com (or somewhere else)?
[09:03] <ubotu> Flash 9 (Final release) is now available for dapper-backports and edgy-backports. See !backports and !flash
[09:03] <Flannel> Toddedm: a good way to force yourself to reinstall Ubuntu
[09:03] <h1st0> cirbdenial: if you navigate to like packages.ubuntu.com/edgy  or dapper or fiesty
[09:03] <cirbdenial> h1st0: then...?
[09:03] <cirbdenial> h1st0: i don't see a download link for a .deb
[09:03] <h1st0> cirbdenial: Go to where the package is then just scroll down there is a download link for different archs
[09:03] <jeeves__> flannel:  this is for setting up software RAID.  This will be hardware baised RAID
[09:03] <cirbdenial> h1st0: just source
[09:04] <Toddedm> lol, thats what im doin right now, reinstalling, but edubuntu this time
[09:04] <Flannel> cirbdenial: to download manually, in packages.ubuntu.com (once you've browsed to a package), scroll all the way down, and you'll see a few arches in a littl table (with filesizes, etc)
[09:04] <jacquesmerde> i have no problems installing flash without firefox and scripts, i'm just wondering about a seeming contradiction in "the Ubuntu Way"
[09:04] <bluefox83> Flannel, wow..i've never had trouble with automatix...course i guess everyone's system is different...
[09:04] <Flannel> !worksforme | bluefox83
[09:04] <ubotu> bluefox83: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[09:04] <h1st0> cirbdenial: CLICK on the architechture like I386
[09:04] <cirbdenial> ah
[09:04] <cirbdenial> thanks
[09:04] <h1st0> cirbdenial: that will get you the deb
[09:04] <Xeroxed1> clearzen: you have any suggestion on getting it back to normal,  my TV is 720p if it hel[s
[09:04] <cirbdenial> yeah, i never noticed that
[09:04] <cirbdenial> thanks
[09:04] <h1st0> cirbdenial: you're also going to need the dependancies.
[09:05] <cirbdenial> h1st0: is there a way to automate this process?
[09:05] <h1st0> cirbdenial: yeah aptitude.
[09:05] <cirbdenial> h1st0: i basically want to download ndiswrapper, build-essential onto a non-ubuntu machine
[09:05] <h1st0> cirbdenial: but not via http I don't know.
[09:05] <cirbdenial> h1st0: then transfer onto usb key
[09:05] <bluefox83> jacquesmerde, actually i think the only reason java and flash aren't in the regular repos is cus it's not free..i am pretty sure if you enable your non-free repos, it'll download them fine...
[09:05] <cirbdenial> h1st0: then install on a non-networked ubuntu machine
[09:05] <h1st0> cirbdenial: Well you can download dvd's of the repos is another option
[09:05] <cirbdenial> h1st0: no thanks, i just need two packages
[09:06] <h1st0> cirbdenial: well you need their dependencies as well.
[09:06] <cirbdenial> h1st0: downloading 4+ gb is not going to speed things up
[09:06] <cirbdenial> h1st0: a dvd worth of dependencies?
[09:06] <Madpilot> cirbdenial, you certain those two packages have no depends?
[09:06] <cirbdenial> Madpilot: no, i'm not
[09:06] <goban> in winecnfg how do i figure out where c: is in my filesystem, drives says ../drive_c
[09:06] <bluefox83> gnight folks
[09:06] <Xeroxed1> clearzen: you still in here
[09:06] <clearzen> Xeroxed1: yeah
[09:06] <jacquesmerde> bluefox83: which is what i do. but as i understand it the "ubuntu way" is to get them through firefox. but then how do you keep them up to date? particularly important if you use apps with unavoidable dependency of jre...
[09:06] <encompass> goban: it is in /home/username/.wine/
[09:07] <encompass> goban look there
[09:07] <clearzen> Xeroxed1: give me a minute I'll be back with you
[09:07] <Xeroxed1> clearzen: any help or suggestions
[09:07] <cirbdenial> Madpilot: i dunno how to do what i want to do, which is what i am asking. how do i download build-essential and ndiswrapper and all their dependencies into a directory (which is on a non-ubuntu machine without aptitude, etc.) and then install on a non-networked ubuntu machine?
[09:07] <Xeroxed1> clearzen: will do
[09:07] <h1st0> cirbdenial: well you asked for a way to automate it.
[09:07] <cirbdenial> Madpilot: i'd prefer an automated way
[09:07] <cirbdenial> h1st0: yes
[09:07] <clearzen> Xeroxed1: have you successfully booted into ubuntu at all?
[09:07] <goban> encompass: thanks
[09:08] <encompass> goban: your very welcome
[09:08] <h1st0> cirbdenial: their dependencies are listed.  Right on the page.
[09:08] <cirbdenial> h1st0: yes, but i asked for an *automated* way to do it
[09:08] <h1st0> cirbdenial: just download them all put them on cd and copy it over.
[09:08] <cirbdenial> h1st0: a prexisting solution, not a perl hack i have to write
[09:08] <h1st0> cirbdenial: I told you download the repos to dvd and install with aptitude is as automated as you are going to get.
[09:09] <cirbdenial> h1st0: and i told you that i don't have aptitude on a *non-ubuntu* machine
[09:09] <h1st0> cirbdenial: IF you have the repos on DVD you can put them in the UBUNTYU machine and install with aptitude
[09:09] <cirbdenial> h1st0: there's no program that recursively calculates dependencies server side?
[09:09] <h1st0> cirbdenial: The other option would be just using a different nic temporarily to get that one working.
[09:09] <cirbdenial> h1st0: i don't want to download an entire DVD for two packages
[09:09] <cirbdenial> h1st0: that's not an option, believe me
[09:09] <Xeroxed1> clearzen: yes i booted into ubuntu and everything
[09:10] <h1st0> I give up.
[09:10] <Madpilot> cirbdenial, you don't need aptitude, you just need the DVD ISO and a DVD burner on the net-connected machine
[09:10] <joycea> does anyone know if there is a way to suspend gnome from the command line which is equivalent to the System->Quit method?
[09:10] <cirbdenial> Madpilot: i don't have a DVD burner
[09:10] <Xeroxed1> clearzen: i think ubuntu boots up still its just i cant see anything with the resolution im on, my tv doesnt support it so it shows nothing
[09:10] <unfo> hi all, emacs-snapshot-gtk just dumped core on me.  Where can I find the core file?  It is not in my home directory.
[09:11] <linxeh> h1st0: is there no way that you could install aptitude on the machine that has internet access, and configure it to use the ubuntu repositories or something, then just download the packages (and not install) ?
[09:11] <Xeroxed1> clearzen: im also running gnome if it helps anything
[09:11] <h1st0> linxeh: Yeah I guess its possilbe.
[09:11] <h1st0> linxeh: he could install aptitude on the othe machine set it up for ubuntu repos and just download the debs that way but make damn sure he doesn' tinstall them.
[09:11] <linxeh> h1st0: I would imagine that aptitude / apt-get source will come with a configure script which would let you confine it to a fake root etc
[09:11] <h1st0> cirbdenial: ^^^^^^^^^^^^
[09:12] <eck> apt-get -d will just download packages
[09:12] <linxeh> yeah
[09:12] <h1st0> linxeh: he doesn't have to he just has to set up the repos properly and use a switch to download the package but not instlal it.
[09:12] <h1st0> Unless its winblows then he would have to use cygwin
[09:12] <linxeh> eck: but if he doesn't have apt-get yet and has to install it from source
[09:12] <h1st0> linxeh: yeap
[09:13] <linxeh> so in that case it is nice to completely self contain the apt-get stuff etc
[09:13] <clearzen> Xeroxed1: try this it should allow you to boot into default res
[09:13] <cirbdenial> eck: thank you
[09:13] <clearzen> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8184/
[09:13] <cirbdenial> eck: otherwise i have to work with dependency hell that dpkg has to deal with
[09:13] <h1st0> eck: what other box do you have that you can work on?
[09:14] <h1st0> cirbdenial: err
[09:14] <h1st0> cirbdenial: what OS is on the box that works.
[09:14] <Flannel> cirbdenial: ndiswrapper AND b-e are on the Ubuntu CD
[09:14] <Xeroxed1> clearzen: do i just type that into kboot
[09:14] <eck> linxeh: then compile apt from source
[09:14] <eck> it doesn't seem like it would be too hard
[09:14] <h1st0> Flannel: yeah true lol
[09:14] <clearzen> yeah in the kboot.cong
[09:14] <clearzen> *kboot.conf
[09:14] <linxeh> eck: which is what i said :)
[09:15] <eck> well there you go :-)
[09:15] <cirbdenial> h1st0: openbsd, but i have access to an ubuntu machine that's not physically on my network
[09:15] <Flannel> cirbdenial: what's the issue with installing them off the CD?
[09:15] <Xeroxed1> clearzen: I tried to type a differnt kboot.conf and tried to save it but it says read-only file system
[09:15] <cirbdenial> cirbdenial: there's no ndiswrapper on the cd that i see
[09:15] <cirbdenial> er, Flannel
[09:15] <Flannel> cirbdenial: You need to add the repository that's on the CD (apt-cdrom)
[09:16] <Flannel> cirbdenial: wait, which CD do you have?
[09:16] <Wuffi600> after editing menu-lst the command grub-update removes all lines that i have added, why?
[09:17] <Ayabara2> I use mplayer in edgy. when I manually resize my video window, the aspect ratio is not kept. any ideas on how I can fix this?
[09:17] <h1st0> cirbdenial: well like others have sade ndiswrapper and build-essentials are on the install cd.
[09:17] <eck> Wuffi600: there's a comment in menu.lst telling yo uwhich parts of the file to not modify
[09:17] <Flannel> Wuffi600: because it regenerates it each time. You need to change it as it says to (change parameters with the options at the top, and add any manual entries after the "End automagical kernels" line
[09:17] <Xeroxed1> clearzen:  ill try to write that kboot.conf but last time i tried to write into kboot.conf it would let me save and said READ-ONLY - file system
[09:17] <clearzen>  Xeroxed1: I'm not sure why it is telling you it is a read-only file system however you should look at this thread for the answers to your questions. I would help you more but I have to go to bed.
[09:18] <eck> Ayabara2: you can right click it and reset the aspect ratio, that is what i normally do
[09:18] <clearzen> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=343113&highlight=ps3
[09:19] <clearzen> Xeroxed1: I would help more but it's late.....find me online later if you have problems
[09:19] <Wuffi600> eck: thank you.
[09:19] <Ayabara2> eck, when I do that the video restarts and goes back to original size
[09:19] <Wuffi600> Flannel: thank you.
[09:19] <goban> is there a way to run warcraft 3 frozen throne in 1680X1050?
[09:20] <Flannel> goban: In wine?  You'll find some wine experts in #winehq, if no one here can answer that.
[09:23] <michup> hi, i've been tried to install vnc (thightvnc) and capture the screen from vnc server to vnc2swf to makes tutorials
[09:24] <eck> Ayabara2: i think that mplayer has an option that will force it to keep the aspect ratio
[09:24] <eck> check the man page
[09:25] <michup> but after i'm making server on screen :2 and connecting to him by vncviewer my new connection window is gray inside
[09:25] <kalorin> you know what's really funny/
[09:25] <kalorin> rdesktop is better than microsoft's version :)
[09:25] <kalorin> seems snappier
[09:25] <Xeroxed1> clearzen: you still here
[09:25] <Ayabara2> eck, I have only found an option not to do it, so I thought doing it would be default. I'll look some more. Thanks :-)
[09:26] <kalorin> and can span multi-head monitors on the other end right out of the box
[09:26] <dyf> quick question - i have a second hard drive (ntfs) I would like to view in ubuntu, it has no partitions. when mounting do I just use hdb or do I still put hdb1.  thanks
[09:26] <unfo`> hdb1
[09:26] <dyf> thanks
[09:26] <Flannel> dyf: er... if it has no partitions, it's not formatted as ntfs
[09:26] <shinobi2> i want buy a wireless card for this mac g4.  i can't find the specs from it on apple.com
[09:27] <unfo`> Flannel: dyf means it has only 1 partition
[09:28] <dyf> that's what I mean unfo :)
[09:28] <ienikk> hi folks
[09:28] <d03boy_> anyone know of any good podcasts dealing with tech stuff? Preferably security
[09:28] <d03boy_> or programming
[09:29] <ienikk> I need help :) - does anybody understand whats wrong with my kaffeine? -> http://pastebin.com/891991
[09:29] <gabz> this week in tech
[09:29] <h1st0> d03boy_: TWIT
[09:29] <h1st0> d03boy_: maybe try asking in #ubuntu-offtopic as well.
[09:30] <ienikk> dunno why, but it just doesn't start
[09:30] <puff> Anybody an amarok user?  I'm trying to figure out how to set up a playlist, but it's non-obvious.
[09:30] <d03boy_> puff, click the playlist button on the far left
[09:30] <cirbdenial> puff: it's very obvious actually
[09:30] <babygurlz> iiiii
[09:30] <Michael_> hi
[09:30] <shinobi2> anyone use mac?
[09:30] <rryan> my swap space used is always 0%, how could this be ?
[09:31] <puff> cirbdenial, d03boy_: okay, so how do I *add* songs to the playlist?
[09:31] <Michael_> quickly wondering if there are any clutch system gearheads in here o-o
[09:31] <cirbdenial> rryan: vm swapiness could be low
[09:31] <ienikk> rryan: 0% free? or 0% used?
[09:31] <cirbdenial> rryan: and usually swap space is not preferred for memory usage
[09:31] <h1st0> rryan: because you have enough physical memory
[09:31] <rryan> 0% used
[09:31] <rryan> cat /proc/swaps
[09:31] <ienikk> rryan: so you have a lot of memory :)
[09:31] <h1st0> rryan: it will use physical memeory first.
[09:31] <rryan> shows Used : 284, Size 1534196
[09:32] <rryan> Shrug... even when I'm close to out of physical memory, it doesn't fill
[09:32] <rryan> and it used to.. i think it changed after i removed whatever drive that was hda and copied the partition over to hdb
[09:32] <crdlb> rryan, how much RAM do you have?
[09:32] <rryan> 1gb
[09:32] <puff> Crap, amarok crashed.
[09:32] <rryan> so .. i have swap on hdb3.. and proc/swaps says its turned on.. i'm just skeptical
[09:32] <rryan> shrug
[09:33] <ienikk> some geek around? this strace output should say whats wrong with kaffeine :) .. please look -> http://pastebin.com/891991
[09:33] <crdlb> rryan, have you set swappiness?
[09:33] <h1st0> rryan: also check your fstab and make sure hte swap is getting mounted properly
[09:33] <Pie-rate> how do i make ubuntu stop bothering me about upgrading wine? i don't want 0.9.31, it messes WoW up
[09:34] <h1st0> Pie-rate: well you can tell aptitude to keep the package at its current version
[09:34] <rryan> crdlb: how do i do that... and what is it?
[09:34] <crdlb> rryan, it is the kernel's tendency to use the swap
[09:34] <rryan> h1st0 : I have an I even replaced the UUID with /dev/hdb3 to make sure
[09:35] <Tomcat_> Pie-rate: man apt_preferences
[09:35] <h1st0> rryan: I've never hit my swap with 1gig of ram either.
[09:35] <crdlb> rryan, I just wanted to see if you had modified it, if not you can leave it alone
[09:35] <rryan> h1st0: err.. that didn't come out right, yes i changed fstab when I swapped the drives around
[09:35] <rryan> crdlb : ahh ok.. hmm
[09:36] <puff> d03boy_: So I had already foudn the playlist tab, but "add playlist" pops up a file browser, so I assume that's really for importing other playlists.  Create sub-folder, well I wasn't looking for a sub-folder, I was looking for a playlist, but I created one on the off chance that a folder is a playlist. Okay, so now how do I get songs _into_ the playlist?  Drag 'n drop onto the playlist tab doesn't seem to do anything.  RIght-cl
[09:36] <puff> ick offers me "append to playlist", so that *seems* to do something, but what?   Where's the playlist it's being added to?
[09:36] <rryan> h1st0 : well.. for example using firefox with ~100 tabs open fills up my physical memory... and causes everything else to be sluggish.. i would think when i haev firefox minimized and not used for a while it would dump it to swap
[09:36] <Endymion> hi
[09:36] <h1st0> rryan: well I haven't done anything that extensive yet.
[09:36] <d03boy_> puff, if I wasnt in windows right now I could help you more..
[09:37] <rryan> h1st0: I have a bad habit of never closing tabs :)
[09:37] <h1st0> rryan: but are you ever going to open 100 tabs?
[09:37] <h1st0> lol
[09:37] <rryan> h1st0: nodnod
[09:37] <michup> someone try out intels ix10 (810,910,915) drivers for best performance (3d acceleration)?
[09:37] <unfo`> Endymion: hi
[09:37] <michup> is it eaven possible?
[09:37] <rryan> *shrug*
[09:38] <puff> Anybody else use amarok?
[09:38] <puff> It's
[09:38] <puff> It's kinda crazy-making.
[09:38] <Endymion> hello unfo`
[09:39] <eck> michup: i am using the i915 drivers
[09:39] <eck> they work very well
[09:41] <eck> they are open source, too
[09:42] <kalorin> ok, so there's this very sexy little app in the windows world named media monkey
[09:42] <puff> d03boy_: Hm, the amarok docs seem to imply that I should be able to have the playlist browser and the collection browser on the screen at the same time, but in my display the right side of the window is empty.  Anything come to mind?
[09:42] <kalorin> rips cds, encodes them using lame or whatever, but it also catalogs them and gives you a searchable database of song names/artist/year/album/whatever
[09:42] <kalorin> anyone know of anything like that?
[09:42] <kalorin> oh it'll interface with an iPod as well
[09:42] <d03boy_> puff, try right clicking in the right side
[09:42] <kalorin> grip will do the ripping and encoding fine
[09:43] <eck> i think amarok does all that
[09:43] <eck> not sure about ipod support
[09:43] <d03boy_> kalorin, I think Banshee interfaces wtih iPod
[09:43] <GFree> wow, quite a lot of people hang out here. :)
[09:44] <tibbe> I removed a bunch of important system packages by mistake, is there are meta package that I can apt-get to get them back?
[09:44] <cypher1> GFree: yes :) recently i saw above 1000
[09:44] <puff> d03boy_: Ah-hah... right-click in the right side offers me "save playlist as", so the *right* side is the playlist, so I can just click on the collection tab and drag them over to the right side.
[09:44] <puff> d03boy_: Yeesh... very slick interface, once you know what it's supposed to be!
[09:44] <GFree> yeah well, I'm a recent convert, so I need to know where to hang around.
[09:44] <kalorin> d03boy_, thanks
[09:44] <d03boy_> puff, ya i just started using it and its not very intuitive at first
[09:44] <kalorin> I'll check on that
[09:44] <d03boy_> kalorin, good luck
[09:45] <cypher1> GFree: you are at the right place ! also there are specific channels for specific things
[09:45] <GFree> thx
[09:45] <eck> the banshee ipod interface does not relaly work
[09:45] <eck> not for me anyway
[09:46] <cypher1> GFree: wc
[09:46] <cypher1> eck: is not rhythm identified the ipod ?
[09:46] <h1st0> I gues i'm gonna go fragging
[09:46] <eck> rhythmbox only has ipod reading support
[09:46] <h1st0> I really wish I would remember to use screen i'm retarded
[09:47] <eck> i think gtkpod is the only thing that you can really trust to write to an ipod
[09:47] <h1st0> Now there is no way to screen irssi
[09:47] <eck> everything else is too buggy
[09:47] <cypher1> eck: did you check the links mentioned by ubotu ?
[09:48] <michup> i've asus a3h5012 wigh i910GPU my platform is dapper drake 6.06 (updated, latest kernel) my server glx version is 1.2 my client glx version is 1.4 my glx version is 1.2 my opengl version is 1.3 Mesa 6.5.1
[09:48] <Ayabara2> is there a way to make 'eye of gnome' display the file index in full screen (like 3/14), or should I use another viewer if I want that behaviour?
[09:48] <michup> i use i915 drivers for kernel 2.6.15.28 make at gcc-4.0
[09:48] <michup> glxinfo says driect rendering okay
[09:48] <eck> cypher1: oh, i was just commenting on what d03boy_ said about banshee working with the ipod
[09:48] <puff> d03boy_: Argh... but for some reason, neither dragging files over nor right-click actualyl adds them to the right side.  Instead it says "Some media could not be loaded (not playable) at the bottom of the window.
[09:48] <Egon> hi all
[09:49] <michup> but cedega 3d acceleration tests fail
[09:49] <cypher1> eck: ok! cool
[09:49] <Egon> how to setup ubutnu so I will be able to sonnect to my machine via ssh ?
[09:49] <michup> ive to mention that before i was install beryl with aiglx and emerald window menager tests were went goot
[09:49] <michup> good
[09:49] <eck> Egon: apt-get install openssh-server
[09:49] <HymnToLife> Egon, sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[09:50] <Egon> thanks
[09:50] <riaal> My graphiccard won't autoinstall, any sugestions? (Sapphire X800GTO Ultimate, 256MB, TV/DVI)?
[09:50] <kalorin> ATI?
[09:50] <kalorin> riaal?
[09:50] <michup> i had install aiglx and update xorg to v 7.1
[09:50] <eck> Egon: also, make sure you read about how to set it up online, you will probably want to set up some ssh keys (and possibly other things like making your router do port forwarding for port 22)
[09:50] <kalorin> X800 sounds like it
[09:51] <riaal> kalorin: yeh
[09:51] <kalorin> yeah
[09:51] <michup> and downloaded xorg-air
[09:51] <kalorin> you need to download the drivers for it
[09:51] <kalorin> I've got an x700 it was a dance to get it installed
[09:51] <kalorin> um..
[09:51] <riaal> kalorin: from the manufacturer (sapphire)?
[09:52] <michup> and make a link of my drivers for xorg-air
[09:52] <d03boy_> puff, this might sound bad, but you might have to read the help file :P
[09:52] <Egon> eck: where can I read about it?
[09:52] <kalorin> um..
[09:52] <kalorin> I don't remember doesn't matter, chips and chip
[09:52] <kalorin> who cares who mounted it on a board?
[09:52] <kalorin> google for "ubuntu fglrx"
[09:52] <kalorin> it'll tell you the package that you need
[09:53] <riaal> kalorin: ?? :S
[09:53] <puff> d03boy_: Help file, *what* help file?
[09:53] <eck> Egon: if you have a book that would be best. short of that, your best bet is to find a howto for setting up ssh keys (and understanding what they are)
[09:53] <kalorin> !fglrx
[09:53] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:53] <d03boy_> i really do not know :O
[09:53] <kalorin> there you go
[09:53] <eck> if you are behind a NAT you will not be able to connect remotely without setting up port forwarding, so you will figure out if that applies to you pretty fast
[09:54] <puff> d03boy_: Yeah, I've been reading the amarok docs, etc, looks like there's some funky driver issue that interferes with mp3s.
[09:55] <d03boy_> puff, strange

[09:58] <Isil`Zha> hi. can someone please tell me how the partition manager during installation of ubuntu is called?
[09:58] <GFree> gparted
[09:58] <CyberCod> If you support the idea of open source hardware drivers, sign the Free Drivers petition at http://www.petitiononline.com/zxcv7nm/petition-sign.html?
[09:58] <kalorin> [03:56]  <riaal> kalorin: im confues =S
[09:58] <Isil`Zha> GFree: thanks
[09:58] <kalorin> what's to be confused about?
[09:59] <kalorin> the ATI drivers aren't included in ubuntu because they're not opensource
[09:59] <kalorin> so you have to get them part way through the install
[09:59] <CyberCod> so far they only have around 5600 signiatures
[09:59] <kalorin> !ati
[09:59] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:59] <yharrow> someone please recommed a graphical ftp client for ubuntu
[09:59] <riaal> is there any difference in drivers (graphic) from 6.10 to 6.06?
[10:00] <riaal> kalorin: It says something like "Note that if you own an ATI card from the R400 series or below, you already have working 2D" R400 series Xnnn (X800, X700, etc) (3D works)
[10:00] <Wuffi600> Flannel: i added a line "defoptions=vga=791" after the automatically generated part in /boot/grub/menu.lst. Then after running "grub-update" and "grub-install /dev/sda" the line ist still there. But when rebooting the computer the framebuffer-mode lokks like vga=normal instead of 791. why? I'd like to use vesa-mode 791 for the console. COuld you help.
[10:00] <kalorin> no idea, I just did what the page there says about installing the binary ATI driver
[10:01] <yharrow> !noob | rrow
[10:01] <ubotu> rrow: Words like noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[10:01] <riaal> kalorin: when I check the xservs error message I get "X850 driver" etc.
[10:01] <kalorin> on boot to the cd you have to drop to a command line and run those commands
[10:01] <Wuffi600> Flannel: btw, it's ubuntu 6.06
[10:01] <riaal> kalorin: ?
[10:02] <riaal> anyone know if there is any difference in graphic driver suport betwen the 6.06. and 6.10?
[10:02] <yharrow> anyone know of a good ient besides for gftp?
[10:02] <kalorin> no idea man
[10:02] <kalorin> do you ahve it installed already?
[10:02] <kalorin> the OS I mean?
[10:02] <Flannel> Wuffi600: you don't need to reinstall grub for sources.list changes or kernel changes
[10:02] <yharrow> 6.10 comes with aiglx by default thats all i know
[10:03] <Flannel> Wuffi600: and, what are you talking about?  You added it after the end of the kernels?  Thats wrong.  That section is if you want to add non-ubuntu boot options, for kernel options/boot options/etc you need to change lines in the top section (they're commented out), then update grub
[10:04] <Flannel> Wuffi600: the top stuff determines what the boot commands look like (that'll get auto generated by update-grub)
[10:04] <dwa> where can you change the default priority of a process?
[10:04] <dwa> i have to change to kacpid prio every time i reboot now
[10:06] <kalorin> ok nighty all
[10:06] <kalorin> 4am
[10:06] <kalorin> what the hell am I doing?
[10:06] <Dante_> 10:06 am
[10:06] <Dante_> more apropriate to be up :p
[10:06] <cypher1> dwa: man nice
[10:07] <crdlb_> kalorin, I'm up at 4am for the morning
[10:07] <dwa> can you change it a boot time with nice cypher1 ?
[10:07] <Dante_> :p
[10:07] <kalorin> yeah I had an hour sleep what am I complaining about? ;)
[10:07] <JNeverMind> anyone installed ubuntu onto asus p5b mobo ?

[10:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about flv - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[10:08] <dwa> i'll go check it out cypher1
[10:08] <cypher1> dwa: /etc/init.d/acpid
[10:08] <dwa> i was hoping for a "simpler" solution ;)
[10:09] <dwa> thanks
[10:09] <cypher1> dwa: sorry

[10:10] <traff> It looks well supported but does not appear in Synaptic PM by default?
[10:10] <Flannel> !webmin | traff

[10:11] <riaal> is it possible to install xp after installing ubuntu?
[10:11] <Flannel> riaal: of course.

[10:11] <riaal> Flannel: cheers
[10:12] <panfist> is there an easy way to understand how grub names/refers to disks in comparison to the normal hda, hdb, et cetera?
[10:12] <omegabeta> Having some issues playing a DVD.. A.) xine reports it as encrtypted, But Totem "wants" to play it, only its all messed up and green (sounds like a codec).. any ideas on some good codes and movie player repos guys? thanks
[10:13] <omegabeta> codecs*
[10:13] <jomino> or lib****
[10:13] <jomino> ?
[10:13] <Flannel> panfist: map letters to numbers (a = 1, b = 2, etc) then subtract one.  (hda1 => 0,0, hdb1 => 1,0, hdc3 => 2,2)
[10:13] <omegabeta> jom, got it
[10:13] <Flannel> panfist: subtract one from both HDD and partition number.  And if you're mixing SATA and IDE, it depends on however the BIOS sees it
[10:13] <Flannel> panfist: as to which come first
[10:14] <omegabeta> curious why it wont work with xine.. I used to be a fond xine user, would like to get it going if possible, unless its redundent and something new is out
[10:14] <jomino> omegabeta, did you trie the vlc?
[10:14] <omegabeta> jom - pretty sure i just did, I tryed vlc, mplayer, xine, gxine , totem and ogle
[10:14] <jomino> and none of them works?
[10:14] <omegabeta> some work, some only show the mssed up version etc..
[10:15] <omegabeta> nope
[10:15] <panfist> yes mixing SATA and IDE was my problem i think...i think i'm just going to rip out the IDE drives for now until i learn my way around...also...i used gparted to partition a hard drive as 3 primary partitions: [ NTFS | ext3 | linuxswap ] , then tried to install windows...
[10:16] <omegabeta> this ubuntu (ubuntu ultimate) came with basically every sound/movie tool/player I can think off. no luck though.. so im thinking its a codec
[10:16] <panfist> windows decided to change the first partition into an extended with a logical ntfs partition inside...with 8megs of unallocated space at the beginning...no question or point to this just that windows is stupid
[10:16] <panfist> anyway, thanks flannel
[10:16] <Flannel> panfist: eh, just try bumping up your numbers.  If you have two sata drives and one IDE, the IDE will either be hd0 or hd2
[10:17] <Flannel> panfist: GRUB has a buit-in editor for it's menu items, so you can literally just try random numbers, if you'd like ;)
[10:18] <panfist> flannel: used gparted to split up the drive, then installed windows, then ubuntu, and after the ubuntu installation i saw a boot screen offering me two choice: windows, and windows. then i GRUBed the mbr and saw the (i assume) normal menu of:
[10:19] <panfist> flannel: ubuntu, ubuntu safe mode et cetera, windows... but no matter which OS i selected "drive does not exist" or some such error
[10:19] <nidahasa> Can anyone help me to install LimeWire???
[10:19] <panfist> i tried any possible combination i could think of in the grub config but i'm going to start over with just one hard disk in the system
[10:20] <Flannel> !frostwire | nidahasa
[10:20] <ubotu> nidahasa: frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[10:20] <mneptok> nidahasa: sudo aptitude install gtk-gnutella
[10:21] <nidahasa> can't i install the oro\iginal version of LimeWire for Linux??
[10:21] <Flannel> !limewire | nidahasa
[10:21] <ubotu> nidahasa: limewire is a popular P2P client running on the Gnutella network. To get it running, install !java first, then download Limewire from http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther and finally run runLime.sh. Consider !FrostWire as an alternative.
[10:22] <Flannel> nidahasa: you can, but there;s no real reason to.  Frostwire is a fork of limewire, without all the cruft
[10:22] <mneptok> nidahasa: you don't want Limewire. it is crippled compared to Frostwire. and GTK-Gnutella is, by far, the easiest way onto the Gnutella network from Ubuntu
[10:22] <panfist> one more question if anyone would be so kind before i go to sleep...what would be a smart way to partition a 500gig drive to use in a dual-boot winxp/ubuntu configuration...i was thinking 4 primary partitions, in this order [ntfs ~20gigs for windows, ext3 ~20gigs for ubuntu, ~2gig linux swap, the rest NTFS for data] . i will tweak the numbers but will that scheme work alright?
[10:23] <mneptok> nidahasa: if installing a JRE and fixing stell scripts is not your cup of tea, use GTK-Gnutella
[10:23] <omegabeta> !automatix | omegabeta
[10:23] <nidahasa> but nothing happened when i tryu to run that file...
[10:23] <mneptok> panfist: change the giant NTFS to giant ext3 for the same purpose (/home on Ubuntu)
[10:23] <nidahasa> i should double click the file to run? isn't it?
[10:23] <sjust1216> Hi I am trying to set a USB printer but CUPS does not give me an USB option to chose from
[10:24] <Lynoure> panfist: ntfs writing in ubuntu is still in beta, so if you'll plan to put ubuntu data there too, rethink
[10:24] <mneptok> nidahasa: sudo aptitude install gtk-gnutella
[10:24] <panfist> can i mount ext3 as read/write in winxp?
[10:24] <mneptok> panfist: yes
[10:24] <mneptok> panfist: http://fs-driver.org
[10:24] <panfist> thank you
[10:24] <mneptok> np
[10:24] <sjust1216> The system does see the printer but CUPS does not
[10:25] <mneptok> panfist: FYI, Ubuntu only needs ~10GB max for / if your /home is on that giant partition
[10:25] <root_> Hi everyone here
[10:26] <panfist> ok
[10:26] <mneptok> sjust1216: Ubuntu?
[10:26] <sjust1216> yes edgy
[10:26] <mneptok> panfist: save yourself some unused space ;)
[10:26] <mneptok> sjust1216: using the GUI "Add A Printer" dialog?
[10:26] <nidahasa> i double clicked the runLine.sh.. it pops a MSG box.. the i selected RUN in that box.. nothing happend. Waht should i do??
[10:26] <panfist> i guess i am used to windows where you can change the default install path away from \program files\, but some applications don't even check and default to c:\program files\ anyway...
[10:27] <mneptok> nidahasa: sudo aptitude install gtk-gnutella
[10:27] <mneptok> nidahasa: sudo aptitude install gtk-gnutella
[10:27] <mneptok> nidahasa: sudo aptitude install gtk-gnutella
[10:27] <sjust1216> done that get no usb option
[10:27] <mneptok> *sigh*
[10:27] <mneptok> sjust1216: ensure the printer is connected and powered on

[10:29] <mneptok> sjust1216: Lexmark, as a rule, has te worst Linux driver support in the industry.
[10:29] <sjust1216> I know
[10:29] <eRazor1> I saw the beryl official website. Their it says the NVIDIA drivers available are not compatible with GeForce 4 cards
[10:30] <mneptok> if i could spell Lexmark with 4 letters, i would

[10:40] <omegabeta> I've installed the lib*** but still get encrtpted errors.. any clues?
[10:40] <Flannel> puff: this is it
[10:40] <puff> Cool.
[10:41] <eck> you should only have a login shell for actual users on the system
[10:42] <harveyd> svnadmin recover creates repo files 'as' the current user
[10:42] <harveyd> my repo is owned by wwwrun
[10:42] <funpop> question: in the menu-list can i have an entry like vga=0x0305 instead of vga=77X ?
[10:42] <funpop> menu.lst of grub
[10:42] <eck> harveyd: yes, but it can run without a login shell, right?
[10:43] <eck> there is nothing stopping a running program from just starting up bash
[10:43] <harveyd> no, if I su wwwrun is asks me a password but doesnt change user
[10:43] <Flannel> harveyd: sudo -u wwwrun svnadmin recover etc etc
[10:43] <harveyd> server doesnt have sudo :P
[10:44] <Flannel> harveyd: er... it's not ubuntu
[10:44] <harveyd> its probably the wrong channel to ask in fact, ubuntu is my desktop, this server is suse
[10:44] <harveyd> but #suse is pretty quite
[10:44] <harveyd> *quiet
[10:44] <eck> harveyd: can you do su -c
[10:45] <eck> e.g. su wwwrun -c ls -s /bin/bash
[10:45] <eck> err, the username goes at the end i think
[10:45] <harveyd> thanks
[10:45] <tezem> hi, sometimes when I boot my machine I get a message that a process with pid 1418 or similar could not be killed and the boot process will hang. This happens on two totally different machines, any idea what the problem might be?
[10:45] <gugu^> Please help to install my CanoScan N670U
[10:46] <eck> tezem: check your logs and find out what program that is
[10:46] <eck> it will probably be logged to syslog
[10:47] <pseudoroot> !scanner | gugu^
[10:47] <ubotu> gugu^: Scanning software: XSane, the gimp, Kooka. For instructions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ScanningHowTo and to see supported hardware: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsScanners
[10:47] <tezem> eck, I already checked my logs including syslog but nothing about that message
[10:48] <eck> i think there is a way to get the system to log the whole boot process
[10:48] <eck> bootlogd?
[10:48] <gugu^> pseudoroot, thx
[10:51] <famicommie> can someone answer a quick question on cron jobs for me?
[10:51] <jef`> just ask
[10:51] <famicommie> I wrote a script to execute fetchmail, and placed it in the /etc/cron.hourly folder
[10:51] <harveyd> svn permissions are an absolute nightmare
[10:51] <ikonia_> we have to know the question before we know if we can answer
[10:51] <ikonia_> ok
[10:51] <famicommie> What else do I have to do to get it to run?
[10:52] <harveyd> this repo just throws a hissy fit every time anyone accesses it
[10:52] <ikonia_> famicommie I never use that method - I normaly just crontab -e and put the script in
[10:52] <ikonia_> although I acknowledge that is the old school method
[10:52] <famicommie> would simply placing it in the cron.hourly folder even work?
[10:52] <Matic`Makovec> How can I "make" Ubuntu know my default browser is Firefox and not Ephipany?
[10:52] <ikonia_> Matic`Makovec normally ask on startup
[10:53] <eck> famicommie: fetchmail can run as a daemon
[10:53] <Matic`Makovec> Since every URL posted on here on IRC for example opens with that
[10:53] <famicommie> :O
[10:53] <famicommie> how?
[10:53] <ikonia_> Matic`Makovec you can just use the applications tab on the "system" tab to set the prefered applications
[10:53] <eck> which is probably preferable
[10:53] <Matic`Makovec> ikonia, I  have that sorted out
[10:53] <eck> i think with -d
[10:53] <eck> rtfm :-)
[10:53] <famicommie> zomg ty
[10:53] <famicommie> I was too busy reading tfm of mutt lol
[10:54] <eck> yes, the mutt documentation is, uh, painful
[10:54] <eck> i think that's the best term
[10:54] <famicommie> haha
[10:55] <omegabeta> any idea why a dvd wont run cause its aays it "encrypted" even though i have all the lib's etc?
[10:55] <scv> hello everybody
[10:55] <marx2k> !dvd
[10:55] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[10:55] <omegabeta> *even though I have all the libs*
[10:56] <scv> lol R4z0r
[10:56] <kane77> how do I make ubuntu not report some updates that are available (it reports firefox 1.5.X, but I dont use it - i use firefox 2.0)??
[10:56] <eck> tbh, i wouldn't recommend using mutt unless you are really deadset on using a cli mail client... it is kind of backwards to be using mutt + fetchmail when we have the modern day wonder of imap
[10:56] <ikonia_> kane77 change the apt-policy
[10:57] <kane77> ikonia_, well but how do I do that?
[10:57] <ikonia_> kane77 just be aware that by using firefox 2 from a tarball may break your dependencies for other products
[10:57] <eck> and mutt is really retarded about imap and especially the concept of nested folders in a maildir
[10:57] <ikonia_> kane77 apt-cache policy or something (I can't remember the syntax)
[10:57] <kane77> ikonia_ but I guess I have no other choice, I use dapper and it doesnt have firefox2.0 in backports yet...
[10:58] <ikonia_> kane77 upgrade to edgy - or accept 1.5 to not break dependencies - or package it up yourself
[10:58] <traff> Hi All, Any comments on using Webmin on Dapper LAMP Server. I see it used to be included in Edgy, but not in Dapper. I got a comment that it is no longer supported in Deb/Ubuntu, is there a specific reason for this?
[10:58] <ikonia_> kane77 do you need firefox 2 ?
[10:58] <ikonia_> traff don't use it - its poor
[10:58] <ikonia_> !webmin >traff
[10:59] <traff> Is there anything similar which is popular with Ubuntu?
[10:59] <ikonia_> traff no
[10:59] <kane77> ikonia_, I like it better ;) and I dont want to upgrade to edgy since there are only couple of weeks to feisty...
[10:59] <ikonia_> kane77 so move to fesity in a couple of weeks and live with the alerts for a few weeks
[10:59] <traff> OK I guess it's back to the console!
[11:00] <eck> i am curious, why was support for webmin dropped? was it just considered too broken?
[11:00] <kane77> ikonia_, :) I will
[11:00] <famicommie> eck: thanks, got fetchmail running on an hourly basis now :D
[11:00] <ikonia_> eck maintaing security is a headache
[11:00] <ikonia_> eck a web system that uses root privileges to admin a box.......I'd not like to maintain that
[11:01] <Frost^> Hello. I'm trying to examine the boot flow of Ubuntu. Can anyone tell me what is the first file which is executed when starting up the system?
[11:01] <scv> hehe
[11:02] <tuxcrafter> hello i am looking for a Wireless Presenter under linux does anyone have a idea?
[11:02] <eck> still, it seems weird to include something and then drop support for it, especially if your users are depending on it (and afaict webmin is pretty popular)
[11:02] <tuxcrafter> Frost^: cant help you exactly but you have to look at the startup and the init.d systems
[11:03] <clust> Hi, I want to use CVS for collaboration on scientific papers. Is there any ease-to-use client for CVS? Something like google-docs?
[11:03] <harveyd> use svn
[11:03] <Frost^> I've started reading about upstart, but all I recall was it telling one how to use upstart, rather than how it does what it does.
[11:03] <eck> clust: actually, the command line tools are fairly sane
[11:03] <harveyd> but neither are particularly suited for document management i believe
[11:04] <Frost^> Perhaps you are familiar with a good source for me to read?
[11:04] <harveyd> possibly darcs or git?
[11:04] <eck> and you probably won't be doing anything too complicated
[11:04] <eck> if you don't want to do anything fancy cvs is fine
[11:05] <mneptok> clust: BZR
[11:05] <mneptok> clust: http://bzr-vcs.org
[11:06] <mneptok> heh. too long in the trenches using acronyms.
[11:06] <mneptok> http://bazaar-vcs.org/
[11:06] <clust> mneptok: thx, it looks fine ;)
[11:07] <eck> mneptok: isn't bzr pretty much only supported in ubuntu? if you are collaborating with a lot of people it might be better to use something more widely supported
[11:08] <mneptok> eck: bzr runs anywhere Python does
[11:09] <mneptok> eck: currently that includes Windows, OSX, and most Unix variants
[11:10] <gugu^> Please help i have installed my CanoScan N670U, and i have an error, when i give to preview, his doing only a half and stops, if i give him one more time preview hi give`s me this "Failed to start scanner: error during device I/O"
[11:10] <eck> i would be hesitant to try to get everyone to switch to the software you think is better if they probably already have cvs on their machines, regardless of technical merits
[11:10] <albs> need help with wireless!
[11:10] <riaal> im getting the feeling ubuntu is detecting my graphic card wrong. its supose to have suport for Radeon X800 (I have ultimate) It detects it as X850 pro and don't suport it.. Can I change that some way?
[11:10] <albs> can anyone help me/
[11:10] <albs> ?
[11:11] <mneptok> eck: you wouldn't be if Canonical signed your paycheck
[11:11] <albs> need wireless help!
[11:11] <tuxcrafter> hello i am looking for a Wireless Presenter under linux does anyone have a idea?
[11:11] <riaal> need graphic help!
[11:11] <Middy> need graphic halp!
[11:12] <Middy> I swapped video cards.. and now I've got artifacting
[11:12] <Middy> Is that a good sign?
[11:12] <riaal> not really =)
[11:12] <Middy> hahah
[11:12] <albs> my wireless card is detected in device manager, but I can't see it in the network manager
[11:12] <scv> maybe not
[11:12] <eck> mneptok: i guess not :-)
[11:13] <riaal> ubuntu install says I have a X850 graphic card and I only have a X800 is that good or bad?
[11:13] <tuxcrafter> albs: riaal: Middy: check your chipset with sudo lspci and google and search the ubuntu formum for a how to with this chipset
[11:13] <albs> my wireless card is detected in device manager, but I can't see it in the network manager
[11:13] <omegabeta> so far wine has taken 10 minutes in its make.. is this normal? I'm running on a AM2 4200 1gig DDr2
[11:13] <Middy> tuxcrafter: 3 birds, one stone.
[11:14] <goetiaoccultus> !calendar
[11:14] <ubotu> calendar is at http://fridge.ubuntu.com/event
[11:14] <scv> hahaha
[11:14] <mneptok> Middy: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:14] <albs> hmmm
[11:14] <riaal> tuxcrafter:  ok, thanks.
[11:14] <scv> Middy,  would they share that stone?
[11:14] <mneptok> Middy: and that's the last piece of advice you get from me on this network :P
[11:14] <albs> is Marvell a chipset for wireless/
[11:14] <albs> ?
[11:14] <goetiaoccultus> anyone know of a good calendar for ubuntu
[11:15] <Middy> mneptok: I'm so going to chase you down to other networks.
[11:15] <albs> or is it Liberta?
[11:15] <mneptok> goetiaoccultus: Evolution, Sunbird, GoogleCal
[11:15] <tuxcrafter> hello i am looking for a Wireless Presenter under linux does anyone have a idea?
[11:15] <DaveTarmac> ok, networking question time. I've been trying to get my Atheros AR5212 chipset wireless card to see my wpa-psk network for a while now. So far, I've got the MadWiFI driver on, the WPA Supplicant on. I am trying to get the network-manager-gnome on, but (and this is going to sound like a dumb question) I can't seem to install it using 'sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome' from inside the extracted directory. What am I doing wrong?
[11:15] <mneptok> Middy: "chase?" A's client is idling with me *right now*
[11:15] <goetiaoccultus> mneptek you think it would be best to just use Googlecal instead of installing othe software?
[11:16] <goetiaoccultus> other*
[11:16] <DaveTarmac> I'm using Edgy 6.10 by the way, if that helps...
[11:16] <eck> DaveTarmac: i might be wrong, but i don't think NM does wpa-psk (or at least not the one packaged in ubuntu)
[11:16] <mneptok> DaveTarmac: aptitude search network-manager-gnome
[11:16] <Middy> mneptok: Hm, I should go into her room then.. and attack you from there :p
[11:16] <chorse> tuxcrafter: "Labtec Wireless Presenter" should work with openoffice
[11:16] <goetiaoccultus> mneptok you think it would be best to just use Googlecal instead of installing other software?  <~~ i screwed my spelling
[11:17] <mneptok> goetiaoccultus: a LOT of my co-workers use GCal
[11:17] <daviey> DaveTarmac, I couldn't get it to work either, so had to use wpa_supplicant manually
[11:17] <tuxcrafter> chorse: great do you now more models> logitech?
[11:17] <goetiaoccultus> alright thanks
[11:17] <chorse> tuxcrafter: sorry, no idea, but i think they _should_ work
[11:17] <DaveTarmac> mneptok: just done the aptitude search. drive ticked but then got another command prompt up. now what?
[11:18] <mneptok> daviey: n-m-g will not touch /etc/network/interfaces if it detects any manual edits
[11:18] <tuxcrafter> chorse: oke thanks
[11:18] <mneptok> DaveTarmac: sudo aptitude update
[11:19] <daviey> mneptok, nm-applet works fine for my wpa network, but not my works wpa enterprise.  Therefore i had to manually run wpa_supplicant.  I didn't edit /etc/network/interfaces
[11:19] <Middy> mneptok: I guess once I do that file thing I gotta restart X?
[11:19] <riaal> lol, what does "Error 22" mean when booting?
[11:19] <DaveTarmac> mneptok: and then?
[11:19] <eck> riaal: iirc, grub couldn't find the hard drive
[11:19] <mneptok> DaveTarmac: aptitude search network-manager-gnome
[11:19] <vilches> hola
[11:19] <DaveTarmac> ok - 2 ticks
[11:19] <eck> riaal: it means you really botched the grub install
[11:19] <mneptok> DaveTarmac: see the package now?
[11:19] <vilches> hello
[11:20] <DaveTarmac> nmeptok: nope
[11:20] <tuxcrafter> bye guys
[11:20] <mneptok> DaveTarmac: pastebin your sources.lst?
[11:20] <riaal> the only verison I can install is breezy... all other fails during installation becoaus my graphic card wont install =S
[11:20] <vilches> que tal
[11:20] <milo> prova
[11:20] <mneptok> riaal: Intel i81* right?
[11:20] <DaveTarmac> but hard, i'm not on that machine. been transfering files on cd from this one
[11:20] <riaal> mneptok: ?
[11:21] <eck> riaal: did you install grub manually?
[11:21] <mneptok> riaal: the video
[11:21] <riaal> no?
[11:21] <DaveTarmac> ubuntu can't join the network
[11:21] <gugu^> how to install or what i can do with sane-plustek
[11:21] <riaal> I just boted the cd
[11:21] <mneptok> DaveTarmac: then aptitude ain't gonna help you at all
[11:22] <vilches> que tal estas
[11:22] <riaal> breezy installs fine and when its supose to start the graphic interface (zserv) it fails.. all other (drapper and edgy) fails during installation
[11:22] <DaveTarmac> mneptok: is there a way to manually install it?
[11:22] <mneptok> DaveTarmac: aptitude/apt-get/Synaptic/Adept are all package managers. you can't search for and download and install a package to a machine with no network connection.
[11:23] <mneptok> DaveTarmac: sure, download n-m-g and all its dependencies and install them by hand
[11:23] <riaal> is it normal for xserv to fail during installation due to graphic card not beeing installed? why not use the "windows way" to have crappy resulution?
[11:23] <DaveTarmac> how do i install by hand?
[11:23] <riaal> please, if I get my graphic to work whit breezy.. can I just update to drapper whitout having to reinstall it?
[11:23] <DaveTarmac> mneptok - sorry to be a pain about this. VERY new to linux
[11:23] <eck> X is complicated, it is not that easy to fix if there is a problem, especially if X cannot properly autoconfigure itself

[11:24] <omegabeta> Help, just installed wine and the font is WHACK.. any ideas ? :P
[11:24] <Lynoure> urgh!
[11:24] <eck> riaal: i don't know how to fix your problem, but you have the option to use the alternate install cd for dapper/edgy
[11:24] <mneptok> DaveTarmac: feel free to get *all* those dependencies. or to just put a NIC in that machine for 10 minutes. ;)
[11:25] <eck> the alternate install is text based so it should be ok
[11:25] <riaal> eck, what do you mean?
[11:25] <vilches> ana u tu
[11:25] <mneptok> riaal: what happens exactly?
[11:25] <mneptok> !es > vilches
[11:25] <eck> riaal: in addition to the live install cd, there is an "alternate install" cd that runs in text mode
[11:25] <DaveTarmac> greeat :(
[11:26] <mneptok> DaveTarmac: this machine has no wired connection?
[11:26] <vilches> ajjajja
[11:27] <DaveTarmac> it does, but it is upstairs, the router is downstairs and no patch cable long enough
[11:27] <mneptok> DaveTarmac: pull ih downstairs long enough to do the wireless dance?
[11:27] <mneptok> s/ih/it/
[11:28] <mojo> i am having with UserDir in apache2 here, it seems to me that apache2 has deprecated the httpd.conf; now I left with no idea how to fix this
[11:28] <DaveTarmac> mneptok: don't *think* there is enough power sockets downstairs...
[11:28] <mojo> any1 encoutered bug where public_html is not regconized?
[11:29] <DaveTarmac> mneptok: looks like i don't have a choice though, really...
[11:29] <mneptok> mojo: lots of people, if their permissions are not set correctly ;)
[11:29] <riaal> mneptok: Well, whit drapper and edgy. It boots fine and when xserv is about to start I get an error saying drivers is not proparly installed. The thing is its saying I have a X850 pro card and I have a X800 Ultimate.. Both drapper and edgy is supose to suport the X800 card. And I can't manualy install it becoaus it won't install the kernel
[11:29] <mneptok> riaal: X800 .... nVidia? (sorry)
[11:30] <eck> DaveTarmac: can you not configure the computer to use wpa and the wireless network using the cli tools just to get on the network so you can install NM?
[11:30] <riaal> mneptok: ATI I guess =)
[11:30] <DaveTarmac> mneptok: ok, what are the commands i need to perform on the box downstairs
[11:30] <mneptok> DaveTarmac: or just set the router to do WEP for 10 minutes
[11:30] <omegabeta> Any ideas how to Fix a font issue in Wine? Just installed it, running the config - the font is all messed up
[11:31] <DaveTarmac> that might be easier in the long run...
[11:31] <duk424> mneptok: I broke it!!
[11:31] <mneptok> *nod*
[11:31] <mojo> mneptok: can u be more specific? is chmod 775 okay?
[11:31] <duk424> "No Screens Found"
[11:31] <mneptok> mojo: who owns public_html?
[11:31] <riaal> I have some instruction of how to set up the drivers here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI#head-c3f28515df1775ec5e62e78fd6c0f8f54e5f9302  thing is I can't install the kernel so its no use. Think I shall go for the breezy (whitch works) istall the drivers and then update? Or will I have to reinstall everthing?
[11:31] <mojo> mneptok: user mojo owns it (ofcoz its me)
[11:32] <mojo> mneptok: isn't that each home user folder has 1 public_html?
[11:32] <mneptok> mojo: mojo:mojo?
[11:32] <h1st0> riaal: you would have to reinstall the drivers if the kernel changes
[11:32] <duk424> Why can't Ubuntu just have a little button that says "work"
[11:32] <mojo> mneptok: the public_html is in my home/mojo folder
[11:32] <h1st0> duk424: it does once you learn more.
[11:32] <h1st0> duk424: what is the problem
[11:32] <mneptok> mojo: the uid/gid of the owner is mojo:mojo?
[11:32] <eck> duk424: file a feature request for that in launchpad :-)
[11:33] <mojo> mneptok: yes
[11:33] <h1st0> eck: lol
[11:33] <riaal> h1st0: so, no use in that then
[11:33] <h1st0> riaal: what are you trying to do?
[11:33] <h1st0> riaal: hold up brb
[11:33] <duk424> Well, I tried to fix the xserver thing.. and now it says "No Screens Found" whenever I try to start X
[11:33] <mneptok> mojo: chmod -R 777 ~/public_html && chmod -R -x+X ~/public_html
[11:34] <riaal> duk424: cheers mate and join the club =)
[11:34] <h1st0> duk424: there is a problem with your video driver?
[11:34] <duk424> I've fixed this before one time... though, that solution didn't work this time...
[11:34] <h1st0> duk424: what type of card doyou have?
[11:34] <duk424> h1st0: probably?
[11:34] <mneptok> duk424: my advice? either stop playing with Beryl and Compiz and accept you're a Linux n00b and slow down, or live with frustration.
[11:35] <duk424> Well, I upgraded from a TNT2 card to a GeForce4 card, and I was getting a little artifacting
[11:35] <riaal> h1st0: trying to install ubuntu =) it will cancel during the starting of xserv and says I have wrong drivers
[11:35] <duk424> mneptok: lol, I gave up on beryl
[11:35] <h1st0> duk424: are you using the nvidia-glx package for drivers or something else?
[11:35] <mneptok> duk424: did you run the dpkg-reconfigure command?
[11:35] <duk424> h1st0: yeah
[11:35] <duk424> mneptok: yeah, I did that, went through the whole config thing, and that's when it broke
[11:36] <h1st0> duk424: just make sure you have linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r` and restart X
[11:36] <mneptok> what he said
[11:36] <h1st0> duk424: sudo aptitude install linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`
[11:36] <riaal> h1st0: thing is it says I have a Radeon X800 Ultimate (supported) and it says drivers for X850 is installing =S
[11:36] <mneptok> or l-r-m-generic
[11:36] <duk424> er, try run that by me again? I remember installing linux-restricted-modules-generic...
[11:36] <h1st0> riaal: I'm not that good with ati but I believe you need to use fglrx
[11:37] <mneptok> duk424: have you rebooted since the reconfigure?
[11:37] <h1st0> duk424: yeah you need linux restricted modules for your specific kernel
[11:37] <riaal> h1st0: whats that? I have googled on it but I dont know what it means or what it is =)
[11:37] <duk424> mneptok: yeah, that's when it broke
[11:37] <mojo> mneptok: I did exactly ur instruction, but Firefox show 404 not found error when I type localhost/~mojo
[11:37] <mneptok> h1st0: the l-r-m-generic dummy pkg should provide the modules for any installed kernel
[11:37] <h1st0> duk424: the uname-r part will pull your kernel name and put it in there for you just copy and paste that command in terminal and then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart should be fixed
[11:37] <riaal> mneptok: Do you know what to download to be able to install whit out the graphics (xserv) like in breezy?
[11:37] <h1st0> !ati | riaal
[11:37] <ubotu> riaal: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:38] <h1st0> riaal: just follow the binary drivers part about it.
[11:38] <mneptok> riaal: ubuntu-alternate
[11:38] <omegabeta> Any ideas how to Fix a font issue in Wine? Just installed it, running the config - the font is all messed up
[11:38] <mneptok> mojo: http://127.0.0.1/~mojo
[11:39] <h1st0> omegabeta: you can install fonts for wine apps in ~/.wine/c_drive/windows/fonts
[11:39] <duk424> h1st0: you mean aptitude install the linux restricted thing?
[11:39] <h1st0> omegabeta: are you trying to get steam working?
[11:39] <h1st0> duk424: yes
[11:39] <duk424> h1st0: alright :) thanks
[11:39] <h1st0> duk424: then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[11:39] <omegabeta> h1st0: Nope, nothing yet .. but it will be Wow
[11:39] <duk424> and, I don't know how, but page up works :D
[11:39] <h1st0> omegabeta: yeah if you look at appdb.winehq.com they will have directions for wow
[11:39] <omegabeta> h1st0: I cant see the font in on the actuall Wine control settings box..
[11:40] <atiproblems> I have found a tutorial for installing beryl and xgl on Dapper Drake, will that work for Edgfy Eft?
[11:40] <omegabeta> h1st0: it looks like impacvt but heaps tight and barely visible
[11:40] <riaal> mneptok: you know if edgy is on "alternate2?
[11:40] <eck> the ubuntu installer should seriously pop up a big window telling users that binary drivers eat babies and will ruin your life
[11:40] <h1st0> omegabeta: maybe you need the mstcorefonts package
[11:40] <mneptok> omegabeta: tried Savage?
[11:40] <h1st0> !fonts | omegabeta
[11:40] <ubotu> omegabeta: 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
[11:40] <eck> it seems like half the questions on here have to do with binary drivers causing all sorts of mischief
[11:40] <h1st0> eck: It is difficult to get ati or nvidia working for new users
[11:40] <riaal> where do I find "edgy-alternate"?
[11:41] <h1st0> eck: nvidia-glx helps a lot but the whole easy ubuntu and automatix f'd that all up.
[11:41] <mneptok> riaal: same place as any other CD
[11:41] <h1st0> riaal: on the edgy download page there is an option for other versions
[11:41] <DaveTarmac`> mneptok: how do you scan for available networks from the command line?
[11:41] <mojo> mneptok: same 404 error
[11:41] <duk424> Gay, same error still...
[11:41] <eck> h1st0: they are all equally as bad. yesterday there was someone on here who kept having X lock up when starting firefox. turns out that the messages at the bottom of the core dump were all related to nv_something
[11:42] <h1st0> riaal: http://ubuntu-releases.cs.umn.edu//edgy/ubuntu-6.10-alternate-i386.iso
[11:42] <riaal> found it, cheers
[11:42] <h1st0> eck: well glx drivers work fine for me and everyone i've had install them that I know.
[11:42] <riaal> thanks h1st0 and mneptok
[11:42] <h1st0> duk424: alright do you know how to use paste bin?
[11:43] <duk424> h1st0: I can't, I'm running text mode atm
[11:43] <h1st0> duk424: hrm... well did it install linux-restricted?
[11:43] <riaal> mneptok: is the alternate edgy something like "normal" breezy?
[11:43] <h1st0> duk424: what are the results of uname -r
[11:43] <duk424> h1st0: Mmm, from the looks of it, no.. but that may be cause it's already installed..
[11:43] <h1st0> duk424: we'll figure out.
[11:43] <duk424> 2.6.17-11-generic
[11:44] <h1st0> duk424: okay dpkg -l | grep linux-restricted
[11:44] <h1st0> duk424: see if there is linux-restricted-modules-2.5.17.11-generic installed will say ii in front of the line
[11:44] <h1st0> duk424: err 2.6.17-11-generic not .5
[11:45] <atiproblems> Should I not install fglrx if I want to run xgl?
[11:45] <mneptok> DaveTarmac`: iwlist eth1 scanning
[11:45] <duk424> the ii infront of the line means it's installed right?
[11:45] <h1st0> atiproblems: you have to. use XGL with ati
[11:45] <h1st0> duk424: yes
[11:45] <mneptok> DaveTarmac`: (replace eth1 with your interface)
[11:45] <duk424> Cause, if that's the case, they're all installed...
[11:45] <h1st0> duk424: there is one that matches the numbers 2.6.17-11-generic right?
[11:46] <duk424> Yeah
[11:46] <duk424> and, yeah, it's installed
[11:46] <h1st0> duk424: alright dpkg -l | grep nvidia
[11:46] <h1st0> duk424: we are looking for nvidia-glx and nvidia-kernel-common to be installed
[11:46] <eck> my idea: patch X and make it lie and say DRI is enabled whenever nvidia/ati drivers are being used so that people don't go breaking their xorg.conf files trying to get it working
[11:46] <duk424> Yep,t hey're both installed
[11:46] <atiproblems> h1st0: so do install the proprietary drivers?
[11:47] <h1st0> duk424: okay sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:47] <duk424> can I use pico?
[11:47] <Skippy_X> I just picked up a 300MHz PII w/96 megs ram and a 30 gig hdd. It's loaded w/ W2K. At the house I'm running an ubuntu desktop (breezy). The only option I have at home is dialup.
[11:47] <duk424> ;)
[11:47] <h1st0> duk424: under the device section make sure the line is  Driver  "nvidia"
[11:47] <Skippy_X> what I'd like to do is connect the laptop to the desktop and use the dial up line to connect to the web when I'm home.
[11:47] <duk424> Yeah
[11:47] <Skippy_X> Can this be done?
[11:47] <duk424> It's set to that
[11:48] <h1st0> duk424: it already is?
[11:48] <duk424> h1st0: Yep
[11:48] <h1st0> duk424: okay ctrl + x to exit nano and you don't need to save the file if thats the case.
[11:48] <duk424> Mmm Hmm..
[11:48] <h1st0> duk424: lets try sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[11:48] <h1st0> duk424: and what is the exact error you are getting.
[11:49] <DaveTarmac`> mneptok: that command didn't work, "unrecognised wireless request 'scanning'".
[11:49] <duk424> h1st0: nope, same error again
[11:49] <smg> DaveTarmac`: iwlist eth0 scan
[11:49] <h1st0> duk424: yes I understand what is the error?
[11:49] <SkippyX> Wow. Weird.
[11:49] <traff> Skippy, presume the PII is the laptop and the Desktop has the modem ?
[11:50] <h1st0> SkippyX: yes it can be done you could just use remote desktop
[11:50] <DaveTarmac`> great. no scna results :(
[11:50] <h1st0> SkippyX: if you just want to share the internet connection thats antoher story.
[11:50] <SkippyX> traff, Yes.
[11:50] <h1st0> duk424: Does it tell you what the error is?
[11:50] <eck> SkippyX: there are many many howtos on doing this, you basically just want to look for the ones on running a linux firewall
[11:50] <DaveTarmac`> it was finding the network the day before yesterday
[11:50] <duk424> h1st0: No Screens Found, before that though, it says: (EE) No devices detected
[11:50] <eck> they will explain how to use a computer as a gateway
[11:51] <h1st0> duk424: alright try lsmod | grep nvidia
[11:51] <SkippyX> eck, Ok - I wawsn't having any luck w/ my search parameters...."using computer as a gateway" might be one to try.....
[11:51] <duk424> nvidia               3933932  0
[11:51] <duk424> agpgart                34888  2 nvidia,intel_agp
[11:51] <h1st0> hrm... :(
[11:51] <duk424> :)
[11:52] <h1st0> duk424: alright cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE
[11:52] <DaveTarmac`> how come there is no native wpa support for ubuntu anyway?
[11:52] <h1st0> duk424: so we can see all the Error messages
[11:52] <eck> SkippyX: just linux and gateway should give you a lot of pertinent things
[11:52] <h1st0> DaveTarmac`: because of the version of network-manager that was with edgy
[11:52] <gordonjcp> DaveTarmac`: because WPA sucks balls
[11:52] <SkippyX> eck - thank you again!
[11:52] <gordonjcp> it's the stupidest thing ever
[11:53] <gordonjcp> never ever use WPA
[11:53] <DaveTarmac`> why not
[11:53] <h1st0> duk424: any relevant information there?
[11:53] <DaveTarmac`> it's more secure than WEP
[11:53] <h1st0> duk424: or is ti a bunch of stuff
[11:53] <gordonjcp> it's a broken implementation of a failed security model
[11:53] <gordonjcp> DaveTarmac`: no, it's massively insecure
[11:53] <duk424> Nah, just (EE) No Devices detected
[11:53] <riaal> installing again.. wish me luck
[11:53] <gordonjcp> if you care about security, don't use wireless or use ipsec
[11:54] <h1st0> duk424: are you sure your Device section said Driver    "nvidia"
[11:54] <gordonjcp> if you don't care about security but just want to stop randoms leeching your wifi, WEP is plenty good enough
[11:54] <h1st0> duk424: in the xorg.conf
[11:54] <duk424> h1st0: yep
[11:54] <DaveTarmac`> i just want something that is going to stop Joe BLow Anyone from utilising my bandwidth
[11:54] <h1st0> duk424: alright well sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change it to vesa
[11:54] <h1st0> duk424: so we can atleast get X working.
[11:54] <gordonjcp> DaveTarmac`: wep is good enough, and has same-day service
[11:54] <eck> SkippyX: you don't really have to bother installing bind and doing fancy iptables stuff, you just need the parts about setting up a dhcp server and getting iptables to reroute the connections
[11:54] <h1st0> duk424: cuz thats just goofy.
[11:54] <gordonjcp> WPA is horribly slow
[11:54] <duk424> haha :) yeah
[11:54] <pirothezero> anyone here using hellanzb or sabnzbd?
[11:55] <h1st0> duk424: what all have you done troubleshooting wise prior to this?  Like did you try to install binary drivers or something?
[11:55] <DaveTarmac`> ok. i'm going to change my wifi settings to wep then try it again.
[11:55] <SkippyX> eck - OK - just added those to the parameters....we'll see what pops up. (I loathe dial-up - but it's the only choice I've got at home).
[11:55] <SkippyX> that's the reason I bought the laptop in the first place.
[11:56] <h1st0> DaveTarmac`: just use wep you will be fine.  They would have to capture so much data any hoot
[11:56] <SkippyX> Would I need to set up samba in order to share files between the laptop and the desktop
[11:56] <SkippyX> ?
[11:56] <eck> SkippyX: if both systems are *nix, use nfs
[11:56] <h1st0> DaveTarmac`: well unless they arp poisonied but I won't get into that.
[11:56] <duk424> h1st0: Umm, I attempted to get Beryl goin, then gave up on that, and mneptok helped me get it working again... then today I put a new graphics card in cause I couldn't find windows drivers for the old one... and since I was getting artifacting, I tried to redo the setup thing for xorg for the new graphics card...
[11:56] <h1st0> SkippyX: are they both linux?
[11:56] <eck> if you have windows in the mix, it is probably best to use samba, but that is more complicated than nfs
[11:56] <h1st0> duk424: are you sure its an nvidia card?
[11:57] <h1st0> duk424: lspci | grep VGA
[11:57] <duk424> h1st0: yep
[11:57] <SkippyX> h1st0, eck, no. The lappy is W2K (too weak for ubuntu), the desktop is breezy
[11:57] <h1st0> SkippyX: yes then you would need samba
[11:57] <duk424> 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV17 [GeForce4 MX 440]  (rev a3)
[11:57] <h1st0> SkippyX: I will get you a good howto hold up
[11:57] <eck> SkippyX: well between getting the gateway set up and getting samba working you have a bit of work cut out for yourself :-)
[11:57] <duk424> ^^ Looks nVidia to me ;)
[11:57] <eck> you will learn a lot though
[11:57] <mneptok> SkippyX: Xubuntu for the laptop ;)
[11:57] <h1st0> duk424: ahh maybe you need nvidia-glx-legacy let me check
[11:58] <duk424> You call that a legacy card?
[11:58] <SkippyX> mneptok, wireless?
[11:58] <mneptok> SkippyX: hrm?
[11:58] <SkippyX> h1st0, thank you!
[11:58] <gordonjcp> DaveTarmac`: think about WEP as being like a Yale lock - it's easy to pick, it's easy to spring the bolt back, but most people will see a locked door and leave it alone
[11:58] <gordonjcp> DaveTarmac`: if they really want in, they'll take a jemmy bar to the hinges
[11:58] <SkippyX> mneptok, hrm? (don't know what that means.....)
[11:58] <h1st0> SkippyX: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#Samba_Server
[11:58] <h1st0> duk424: is it new or something?
[11:58] <mneptok> SkippyX: what about wireless?
[11:59] <duk424> h1st0: Nah, it's my old card from my old PC...
[11:59] <SkippyX> I figured that Xubuntu was a possibility - but wasn't sure how well it would deal w/ wireless.
[11:59] <duk424> h1st0: Just.. I thought it wasn't *that* old..
[11:59] <DaveTarmac`> true. its not like where i live people know how to use computers anyway :)
[11:59] <SkippyX> I'll be using a pcmcia card.
[11:59] <duk424> h1st0: "legacy" for me is like GeForce 2...
[11:59] <mneptok> DaveTarmac`: you live on Micrsoft's Redmond campus?!
[11:59] <h1st0> duk424: well i'm checking which drivers you need but I bet that is the problem.
[11:59] <DaveTarmac`> oooo ;)
[11:59] <h1st0> duk424: did vesa get you in X
[11:59] <eck> ok, random gnome question. is there a shortcut for clearing an input field?
[12:00] <duk424> h1st0: yeah, it did..
[12:00] <mneptok> DaveTarmac`: i'm just *full* of such clever remarks. /ignore while you still can. ;)
[12:00] <SkippyX> mneptok, I've been reading that linux has difficulties w/ wireless. In fact thre's supposed to be some kind of initiatives going on....
[12:00] <DaveTarmac`> which authentication type is best then? open, shared bor both?
[12:00] <agliv5> Greetings all :) I've tried 3 times to install Ubuntu 6.6 AMD 64 and Grub is having problems... here's the output : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8193  Please someone help!!!
[12:00] <mneptok> SkippyX: WPA works great from my Thinkpad.
[12:00] <SkippyX> mneptok, what's wpa?
[12:01] <mneptok> SkippyX: all dependes on your 802.11 chipset
[12:01] <eck> i.e. if i want to paste something, but i don't want to highlight the text in the field to delete it because that will overwrite what i have in the clipboard
[12:01] <SkippyX> ah - so check compatability before I guy a card....
[12:01] <h1st0> duk424: is that like a tnt2 card or something?
[12:01] <duk424> h1st0: the old card was.. that's why I replaced it
[12:01] <duk424> h1st0: but, it's an nvidia GeForce4 MX 440 now
[12:03] <h1st0> duk424: alright i'm checking
[12:03] <duk424> h1st0: thanks :)
[12:04] <h1st0> duk424: yeah that driver should be working.  Did switching to vesa atleast get you in X?
[12:05] <duk424> h1st0: yeah, Vesa got me into X
[12:05] <duk424> though, it was running before with the nv driver.. just a little bit of artifacting..
[12:05] <h1st0> duk424: okay well we can try sudo rmmod nvidia  and sudo aptitude purge nvidia-glx
[12:05] <SkippyX> h1st0, I just saw the link you posted. Thank you, sirrah.
[12:05] <h1st0> duk424: then maybe try reinstalling nvidia-glx
[12:06] <h1st0> SkippyX: np
[12:06] <riaal> If I want to unstall "Alternate edgy" something like normal breezy.. text mode or OEM mode? (not xserv mode)
[12:06] <h1st0> duk424: thats the only thing I can think of should jsut be working unless you have a goofy card.
[12:06] <SkippyX> OK - and with that, I've got some reading to do.......have fun, y'all.
[12:06] <SkippyX> thanks again!
[12:06] <riaal> Is OEM install xserv?
[12:06] <h1st0> duk424: or your xorg.conf is messed up somehow.
[12:06] <duk424> h1st0: Alright, trying now...
[12:06] <h1st0> riaal: no
[12:07] <h1st0> riaal: oem mode is for vendors.  Basically they ship the PC and people create tehir user and pass etc...
[12:07] <duk424> h1st0: is there a way to get it to just re generate an xorg.conf itself like it does during the install?
[12:07] <h1st0> riaal: what do you want to do install desktop mode?
[12:07] <h1st0> riaal: or command line only?
[12:07] <agliv5> Can someone please help me with my problem that Grub is having?  Here's the output: Booting 'Ubuntu, kernel 2.6.15-26-amd-generic'
[12:07] <agliv5> root (hda1,0)

[12:07] <agliv5> press any key to continue...
[12:07] <riaal> h1st0: as easy as possible whit out xserv
[12:08] <Tydor> anyone can help me please? =)
[12:08] <h1st0> duk424: well you can look in /etc/X11/  for xorg.conf.bak or xorg.conf~  those should be backups.  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg should generate a new one ass well.
[12:08] <h1st0> !grub | agliv5

[12:08] <ubotu> Tydor: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:08] <riaal> h1st0: test or oem? whats the easyest?
[12:09] <riaal> h1st0: text*
[12:09] <h1st0> riaal: well if you don't want GNome or anything just select Install command line system
[12:09] <h1st0> riaal: OEM is something completely different.
[12:09] <h1st0> riaal: if you did the normall install 1st option you would get desktop version.
[12:10] <h1st0> riaal: command line version is just a terminal no X windows etc...
[12:10] <riaal> h1st0: Im confused, I will try the first alternative =) thanks
[12:10] <h1st0> riaal: What kind of system do you want?
[12:10] <h1st0> riaal: you're not making any sense to me.
[12:10] <h1st0> riaal: DO you need a SERVER or DESKTOP
[12:11] <h1st0> riaal: server as in webserver that you don't use day to day.
[12:11] <ramvi> Is there an easy way to see all installed fonts?
[12:11] <Tydor> ubotu, ok, sorry, when i try apt-get install ...return the message Impossible can find pacots
[12:12] <h1st0> ramvi: I think if you point nautilus to fonts://
[12:12] <h1st0> ramvi: err fonts:///
[12:12] <ramvi> Thanks!
[12:12] <h1st0> Tydor: ubotu is a robot.
[12:12] <nothlit> fc-list, or xlsfonts
[12:12] <h1st0> Tydor: what are you trying to install pacots?
[12:13] <Tydor> amsn
[12:13] <duk424> h1st0: what's the problem with using the vesa drivers anyway?
[12:13] <h1st0> Tydor: sudo aptitude install amsn
[12:13] <h1st0> duk424: nothing you just don't have 3d suport
[12:14] <Tydor> any programs i can use it?
[12:14] <h1st0> duk424: I think sudo rmmod nvidia and removign nvidia-glx and reinstalling it may fix your issue.
[12:14] <h1st0> Tydor: huh?
[12:14] <h1st0> !installing
[12:14] <duk424> h1st0, yeah, I just tried that then, didn't work :(
[12:14] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues
[12:14] <h1st0> duk424: Thats just goofy.  Where did you get the card is it possibly a fake?
[12:15] <duk424> h1st0: Nope, it's def not a fake, it worked for ages in my ol Windows box... came in a Packard bell machine
[12:15] <duk424> :)
[12:17] <Onore_e_Gloria> hi
[12:17] <h1st0> duk424: maybe try the nvidia-glx-legacy package then.  Other than that I don't know.  I would put a post on the forums.
[12:18] <duk424> *insert wtf moment here*
[12:18] <duk424> I think I might be onto something
[12:18] <duk424> it's working with the nv driver now?
[12:19] <Tydor> i use the commando...and the message is can't find pacots with name or description, need OB files.

[12:22] <h1st0> duk424: There are people on here that accept donations?
[12:22] <pseudoroot> agliv5:   where is ubuntu installed?
[12:22] <duk424> *shrug* I donate to people who help... also to people who aren't mneptok ;)
[12:23] <duk424> mneptok: You know you love me ;)

[12:24] <duk424> h1st0: Sure :)
[12:24] <duk424> h1st0: thanks for your help
[12:24] <h1st0> duk424: that page will explain donations they pay for devs etc... but i'm just bored so i'm here.
[12:24] <agliv5> pseudoroot: sda1 = /boot ; sda5 = /swap ; sda7 = /home ; sda8 = /
[12:25] <agliv5> pseudoroot: I don't know... I just followed the instructions on the liveCD durring install
[12:25] <h1st0> duk424: this is how I learn mroe and more about linux.
[12:25] <duk424> h1st0: :)
[12:26] <agliv5> pseudoroot: or do you mean via bios?  hda1 is set not bootable in my BIOS...
[12:27] <agliv5> pseudoroot: do you think GRUB is trying to boot from hda1?
[12:27] <Tydor> thanks a lot, work now
[12:27] <jaxx> hi i need help to activate 3d ati accelleration on my ubuntu (gnome)

[12:27] <juliux> !automatix
[12:27] <h1st0> Tydor: np
[12:27] <ubotu> automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[12:27] <h1st0> juliux: NO AUTOMATIX BAD
[12:28] <agliv5> pseudoroot: how do we tell GRUB not to boot but only mount hda1?
[12:28] <jaxx> thanx
[12:28] <h1st0> jaxx: np
[12:28] <pseudoroot> agliv5:   when you get grub menu, highlight 1st entry, then press "e" to edit .... then edit "root (hda1,0)" to "root (0,0)" ... try that
[12:28] <juliux> h1st0, i only want to check the answer of the english bot, to have something simliar for the german one
[12:28] <h1st0> juliux: It should just say NO AUTOMATIX BAD on it.
[12:29] <gugu^> What printer is the best for Ubuntu?
[12:29] <juliux> gugu^, hps are working well with linux

[12:29] <gugu^> jughead, Hp LaserJet 1018 works?
[12:30] <picca> anyone know if ubuntu supports the intel 3945 wireless card out of the box?
[12:30] <h1st0> picca: wiki has hardware stuff listed.
[12:30] <picca> thanks h1st0
[12:30] <h1st0> picca: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[12:30] <pseudoroot> agliv5:   yeah, /boot/grub/menu.lst
[12:32] <agliv5> pseudoroot: locate was having problems finding it... but now that I know where it is, it seems logical ;)
[12:32] <h1st0> agliv5: Yeah I dont' beleive you can use (hda1,0) in menu.1st grub won't understand that.
[12:32] <h1st0> agliv5: sudo updatedb will update locates database.
[12:32] <pseudoroot> agliv5:   make that "(hd0,0)"
[12:32] <student> hello. I'm installing a Ubuntu 5.10 and at 83%, when installing the fonts (TTF) it started working slow. Now it installs X-Chat at 84% and lasts for 10 minutes already. What's wrong with it? Should I try again?
[12:32] <agliv5> guys sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst is empty!!!
[12:33] <gugu^> does Hp LaserJet 1018 works on ubuntu?
[12:33] <agliv5> pseudoroot: what's up with that?
[12:34] <drayen> I was reading : http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/view/70 and saw gwoo's comment about checking out the bakery implementation of tagging - when can i find the code for the bakery?
[12:34] <bimberi> gugu^: Ubuntu has drivers for it.  Check at linuxprinting.org how good they are
[12:34] <pseudoroot> agliv5:   ?
[12:34] <coolbone> g'morning
[12:34] <drayen> doh. wrong window:S
[12:35] <pseudoroot> gugu^:   https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrintersHp
[12:35] <gugu^> bimberi, ok thx
[12:35] <agliv5> pseudoroot: sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst brings up an empty file???
[12:36] <coolbone> guick n00b question, im having troubles after installing LAMP and considering to reinstall (this time using the ubuntu documentation instead of random google'd search) will i have to remove the origional packages that i installed? and if so, is there an apt-get command that i can grep on to list the exact package name to remove?
[12:36] <pseudoroot> perhaps because you're looking in livecd files?
[12:36] <daviey> coolbone, to list packages installed dpkg -l
[12:36] <coolbone> ah, so then i do have to remove those packages?
[12:36] <nothlit> coolbone: use apt-get autoremove with --purge on the list of apps you used to install lamp
[12:37] <coolbone> ok, so find the packages with dpkg and remove with the --purge option
[12:37] <TeePOG> how do I tell, out of an ssh session only, which version of Ubuntu is on the remote server?
[12:37] <bimberi> !version | TeePOG
[12:37] <ubotu> TeePOG: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[12:38] <TeePOG> thanks bimberi
[12:38] <bimberi> TeePOG: np :)
[12:38] <agliv5> pseudoroot: so how do I edit the files on sda1 = /boot ?
[12:38] <TeePOG> inspecting the incumbent systems and all
[12:38] <student> is it normal for Ubuntu 5.10 installation to last for more than 3 hours?
[12:38] <keck0f> i plan to run a linuxserver for the next few years. I should install 6.06LTS instead of 6.10, right?
[12:39] <erikja> !chatzilla
[12:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about chatzilla - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:39] <agliv5> student: it depends on how old your computer is ;)
[12:39] <h1st0> keck0f: yes
[12:39] <pseudoroot> agliv5:   not sure... maybe /dev/sda1/boot/.... ?
[12:40] <erikja> How can I install chatzilla on mozilla installed on Edgy ?
[12:40] <student> agliv5, it's Pentium 4 2.8 GHz. But it takes 15 minutes just to pass the Installing X-Chat for example, and i dont know why ....
[12:40] <agliv5> pseudoroot: I can see sda1 in nautilus, but I can't mount it for some reason...
[12:40] <h1st0> erikja: just via the addons page no?
[12:40] <keck0f> h1st0: thanx
[12:41] <erikja> I'll have a look
[12:41] <h1st0> erikja: not sure how the addons work with linux haven't really tried to add one
[12:42] <agliv5> student: dual system i.e. windows & ubuntu?  And why 5.1? 6.06 is the newest stable Ubuntu....
[12:42] <pseudoroot> agliv5:   sry I don't have a quick answer to that - I haven't done much recovery stuff from livecd
[12:42] <erikja> hlst0, ok.. I cannot get it to work the addon
[12:42] <agliv5> student: do you know if your CPU is x32 or x64 Arch?
[12:43] <sloof3> What's the difference betweent he dekstop and server install isos?
[12:43] <agliv5> pseudoroot: ok I get back to you when I figure out how to mount sda1...
[12:43] <student> agliv5, because 5.10 is what i have right now. Yes, dual system ... and the CPU is on 32 bits
[12:43] <pirothezero> desktops are meant for user interaction, they have more ui stuff involved, the server builds have the ability to run php,mysql services straight from the install
[12:43] <coolbone> hrm, please forgive the ignorance, i am having trouble finding the options to list the packages used with dpkg... is there a log file i can cat to display recently installed packages?
[12:44] <gharz> guys, i've just installed azureus using automatix... when i try to download a bittorrent... it doesn't say open with azureus... how do i associate torrent files to azureus?
[12:44] <pirothezero> -i is reall the only one you need coolbone
[12:44] <sloof3> pirothezero: So if I have the desktop disc I can do a server install just just fine.  I didn't see any difference in sources.list.
[12:44] <agliv5> student: U sure you don't want 6.06?  What's your partitions table look like?  i.e. how much space where and what filesystems?
[12:45] <pirothezero> you can do the server install on any of the releases, its just a matter of how much work you want to do
[12:45] <agliv5> Can anybody help me mounting a local HD from a liveCD?
[12:45] <pirothezero> if you need server specific stuff the server cd will help you out on that when you install the base at the same time
[12:45] <sloof3> pirothezero: I don't mind apt-get a few extar things
[12:45] <student> agliv5, i am installing it on a primary partition ext3 of 10 GB. And i am planning on installing 6 on Monday, but would be nice if this 5.10 would work today
[12:46] <sloof3> pirothezero: I'll just make sure I install sshd
[12:46] <pirothezero> if its a server that will be acting as a desktop as a test machine for some reason then doesnt matter which cd you go for really
[12:46] <student> i don't think the size of the disk is much of a problem, though something is strange
[12:46] <sloof3> pirothezero: It's a desktop CD that will be on server hardware acting as a server
[12:46] <agliv5> student: I need to know all your partitions inorder to help you...
[12:47] <pirothezero> ah gotcha
[12:47] <nProtect> Graphic Card cannot support OpenGL. I cannot play games (Sorry. I am a thailand)
[12:47] <pirothezero> well then as long as the architecture matches, you are good to go
[12:47] <pseudoroot> gharz:   typically to assoc any type of file you right click it, select "properties", and set the program in the "open with" tab
[12:47] <sloof3> pirothezero: ok good.
[12:47] <gugu^> I had instaled Canon N670U, and his working with errors,  when i give him to preview his scaning a half of page and stops, afetr that he give me this "Failed to Start scanner: Error during device I/O"
[12:47] <sloof3> pirothezero: thanks
[12:47] <pirothezero> np
[12:48] <pirothezero> test
[12:49] <agliv5> student: what does fdisk -l say ?
[12:49] <pihus> Why is it so that when running beryl there isn't "shut down" and "restart" option when clicking the shut down button in upper-right corner?
[12:50] <pihus> but when running gnome wm then there are those options too
[12:50] <pseudoroot> gugu^:   unless someone here has an answer first, I'd try searching the ubuntu forums for "N670U"
[12:50] <student> agliv5, so it's one NTFS partition as primary, another logical ntfs, a logical swap and another primary with ext3
[12:50] <student> fdisk says nothing, cause the Ubuntu is in installation process ... for 4 hours
[12:50] <omegabeta> Am I allowed to ask wine questions in here? related to ubuntu/wow?
[12:50] <pseudoroot> gugu^:   or "canoscan" in general
[12:51] <h1st0> omegabeta: sure just dont' know if they will get answered.
[12:51] <h1st0> omegabeta: unless someone has experience with wine/wow
[12:51] <omegabeta> k :)
[12:51] <pirothezero> i managed to pull it off about 6 months ago
[12:51] <h1st0> pihus: this is a known bug I believe but beryl support is in #ubuntu-effects
[12:51] <pirothezero> before i quit playing
[12:52] <pirothezero> not sure what the updates have been now, let alone with burning crusade out so can't help you here myself at least =/
[12:52] <omegabeta> Question : I compiled wine from source, open up terminal and type in wine (url of wow) - Works a charm, untill i login, just a blank screen witht eh character tabs on the side.. and of course trying to go in gamer errors oout at world load..any ideas?
[12:52] <h1st0> omegabeta: did you check the appdb.winehq.com for a howto on getting wine working?
[12:53] <agliv5> student: so something like:  hda1 = NTFS primary ; hda2 = NTFS logical ; hda3 = /swap ; hda4 = /root (ext3)  Close?
[12:53] <omegabeta> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=300253&page=1&highlight=world+of+warcraft
[12:53] <omegabeta> thats what i read
[12:53] <agliv5> student: what does fdisk -l say?
[12:53] <enano> Hi! I'm running Ubuntu as dualboot with winxp. I can't load the "gui" because me nvidia card doesn't work. So is there any way trough GRUB I can just load a text-mode version or something? So I can DL the drivers and install them? Thanks!
[12:53] <omegabeta> all the config is just for sound, I can do without that cause I'd rather listen to tunes anway
[12:55] <student> agliv5, how could i type fdisk or see the partitions if the system is blocked by the installer? if i type alt+ctrl+f2 and login this console blocks too ... so i can get no prompt
[12:55] <h1st0> omegabeta: maybe post a reply to that message explaining your problem following his instructions.
[12:56] <omegabeta> Ye, guess I might have to
[12:56] <h1st0> enano: select recovery mode.  or you could hit ctrl+alt+f1 when the X fails to get a prompt
[12:56] <h1st0> enano: are you getting an error or anythign?
[12:56] <agliv5> student: I didn't realize that the installtion is still running... that's bad!!!
[12:56] <agliv5> student: running x-chat from a second system?
[12:57] <enano> h1st0: nope, I'm just getting some colored "sections" on my screen
[12:57] <student> yes a 2nd computer
[12:57] <h1st0> enano: what if you hit ctrl+alt+f1 do you get a prompt to log in?
[12:57] <student> anyway i decided to install ubuntu 6 on monday
[12:58] <student> or debian etch even better cause i am getting tired of ubuntu
[12:58] <student> thanks for your help
[12:58] <enano> h1st0: sec, booting now
[12:58] <gugu^> pseudoroot, ok i`l search

[01:01] <enano> h1st0: ok, will do. Thanks mate!
[01:01] <mando> osman: Can't I make bittorrent look and behave like I explained?
[01:01] <enano> h1st0: hmm, that guide is trough the gui though, can only use text-mode :/
[01:02] <keck0f> how can i allow user "root" to use administrative-parts of the cups-webinterface? http://localhost:631/admin (user "root" is member of group "lpadmin", root's pw is set correctly)
[01:02] <h1st0> enano: well basically you have to enable universe repository by editing /etc/apt/sources.list
[01:02] <h1st0> enano: err actually just try sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx
[01:02] <h1st0> enano: what do you get?

[01:04] <bullgard1> Does there exist a channel on irc.gnome.org to discuss GNOME/Ubuntu  matters?
[01:04] <vinboy> or more serious like HIV
[01:04] <h1st0> georgeous: are you talking about in linux?
[01:04] <tunganet> is it true that there are no virus for linux?
[01:04] <h1st0> georgeous: or on windows?
[01:04] <tunganet> nor spyware?

[01:04] <Ribs> georgeous, no :)
[01:04] <tunganet> omg we have the same question!
[01:05] <tunganet> does linux catch viruses at all?
[01:05] <h1st0> enano: alright well after nvidia-glx is done you can restart X with sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[01:05] <georgeous> How would computer have runny nose?
[01:05] <vinboy> linux does have virus and spyware
[01:05] <vinboy> but that is uncommon
[01:05] <tunganet> oh what..
[01:05] <tunganet> oh

[01:21] <binary-cowboy> hey all

[01:21] <techie> Lynoure, thanks  but first I have to figure out how to do that.
[01:21] <Lynoure> techie: I cannot remember the details either but I bet it's googlable
[01:21] <ailean> techie, i'm sending you something
[01:21] <binary-cowboy> sorry wqesaffdsa -- I was trying to type in google and selected XChat
[01:21] <techie> sounds good Lyunoure I will do that
[01:21] <agliv5> tunganet: how am I supposed to tell the difference if you type out every char of my nick or autocomplete via tab???
[01:22] <ailean> techie, this will allow you to read ext3 from windows
[01:22] <tunganet> agliv5:  well im not :)
[01:22] <tunganet> agliv5: i typed agli [tab]  this
[01:22] <techie> ailean> thanks ailean but .... how do I find whatever you are sending me! LOL where do i find it.
[01:22] <ailean> techie what IRC prog are you using?

[01:23] <Lynoure> techie: http://fs-driver.org
[01:23] <ailean> techie just that sometimes sending files through IRC can be a bit tempremental

[01:24] <vinboy> can someone tell me the difference between these 2 lines:
[01:25] <vinboy> deb http://ftp.au.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free
[01:25] <gharz> guys, i've just installed ubuntu 6.10...i'm having problem with Gaim... if i open Gaim twice or more... there are two or more instances that are running...
[01:25] <vinboy> deb http://ftp.au.debian.org/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free
[01:25] <vinboy> oops
[01:25] <vinboy> no
[01:25] <ailean> techie in fact, it's at http://fs-driver.org/ if you can get it from there - but run it in windows
[01:25] <tunganet> agliv5: what do u mean by default..
[01:25] <gharz> the icons are showing at the system tray
[01:25] <vinboy> sorry
[01:25] <vinboy> wrong place

[01:26] <mando> gharz: you nned to klick on the icon - right next to the clock - if you want to see your contact list
[01:26] <mando> gharz: click it again, and the list disappears again
[01:26] <agliv5> tunganet: I meant that if you just installed mplayer w/o any extra packages that it might not be able to play wma... I don't know if it supports wma without extra packages...
[01:26] <tunganet> agliv5:where do i find the extra?
[01:26] <agliv5> tunganet:  IS IT WORKING OR NOT ?
[01:27] <tunganet> um other files
[01:27] <gharz> mando: what i'm concern is... if i run Gaim and then i open/click another Gaim... another Gaim opens.
[01:27] <tunganet> agliv5:  let me check hold on
[01:27] <GFawkes1> hello
[01:27] <gharz> there should only be 1 instance of Gaim running right?

[01:34] <marcin_ant> hi guys I got trivial question - how to setup another user on my machine as superuser?
[01:34] <mando> soundray: thx, where, how do i get it?
[01:34] <agliv5> hilkuri: will do, hang on whilst I try
[01:34] <ailean> marcin_ant any user can be a superuser using sudo and the correct password

[01:35] <mando> soundray: thx ;)
[01:35] <LinTux> what is the best webcams to by for use with Linux & Skype
[01:35] <soundray> agliv5: if you see a drive in nautilus, it means that it
[01:35] <ikonia_> LinTux google for ones with native linux support
[01:35] <soundray> agliv5: if you see a drive in nautilus, it means that it is mounted already
[01:35] <apokryphos> LinTux: no webcam support for Skype on Linux
[01:35] <soundray> agliv5: check with 'mount' by itself
[01:36] <marcin_ant> ailean: so when I create another user on my machine for example with useradd then this account is automatically in sudoers group?
[01:36] <ikonia_> marcin_ant no you have to add him
[01:36] <soundray> LinTux: use ekiga for video chat
[01:36] <marcin_ant> ikonia: and this was my question - how can I do this?
[01:36] <ailean> marcin_ant sorry, i misunderstood you
[01:37] <agliv5> soundray: It can't be mounted because when I double-click the drive I get an error message that nautilus can not mount the drive...
[01:37] <ikonia_> marcin_ant vi the sudoers file and it tells you how to edit it
[01:37] <LinTux> Problem is my Radio Ham friends all use skype
[01:37] <ikonia_> LinTux but there is no webcam support for skype
[01:38] <soundray> agliv5: try 'mount' please
[01:38] <agliv5> hilkuri: sudo mount -t ext2 /media/GRUB/ /sda1 error mount point /sda1 does not exist.... but the drive that I am trying to mount is sda1....
[01:39] <ikonia_> agliv5 thats the wrong command
[01:39] <ikonia_> agliv5 sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/GRUB is correct
[01:39] <innu> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=374201 help needed ...
[01:39] <soundray> agliv5: 'sudo mount -t ext2 /dev/sda1 /mnt' (use /mnt for temporary mounting)
[01:40] <marcin_ant> ikonia: thanks but as I understand the best option is to add some user to admin group
[01:40] <ikonia_> innu there is nothing in your PS that shows cpu at 80 - 100
[01:40] <ikonia_> marcin_ant you can do that if the admin group is in the sudoers file
[01:41] <mando> ubotu: there are so many different clients. Which one do you suggest ?
[01:41] <marcin_ant> yes it is - there is %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL
[01:41] <ikonia_> marcin_ant done deal
[01:41] <innu> ikonia_, that is the problem. If i look statistic then its all time 80-100% and all is so slow, but ps aux dosen't show what uses cpu like this.
[01:41] <agliv5> ikonia   It worked!!! and it's so simple when you know how but so frustrating when you don't
[01:42] <marcin_ant> ikonia: and comment that Members of the admin group may gain root privileges

[01:42] <innu> output of?
[01:42] <ikonia_> marcin_ant they will do with sudo -i as they are in the sudoers files
[01:42] <soundray> innu: use top or gnome-system-monitor to find the culprit
[01:42] <ikonia_> !goodbotuse >teepog
[01:42] <mando> soundray: there are so many different kinds of torrent clients. Which one do you suggest for a newbe that used win before ?
[01:42] <ikonia_> innu top please
[01:43] <ikonia_> mando try them and see which one you like
[01:43] <innu> kk
[01:43] <marcin_ant> ikonia: and this is what I need - now I only need to find in my head or google how to add user to group from CLI
[01:43] <soundray> mando: I don't use torrent. (I responded because it is a FAQ)
[01:43] <marcin_ant> ikonia: :)
[01:43] <ikonia_> marcin_ant usermod -G admin $user
[01:43] <soundray> marcin_ant: 'adduser username admin'
[01:43] <ikonia_> or useradd -g users -G admin $user

[01:44] <marcin_ant> ikonia: thank you a lot :)

[01:44] <ikonia_> agliv5 not a problem. Happy to help
[01:44] <innu> ikonia_, this shows memory probs. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8213/
[01:44] <ikonia_> agliv5 soundray had it right too
[01:44] <mando> soundray: all right, i 'll follow ikonia_ suggestion
[01:44] <mando> soundray: thx though :D
[01:44] <ikonia_> innu what are you having problems with - memory or cpu - as you said it was cpu before
[01:45] <ikonia_> innu from your top output the only big things you have running are totem movie play (will be big) and mysqld (big database ??)
[01:45] <ikonia_> and thats not even real memory
[01:45] <innu> ikonia_, gnome-system-monitor show that CPU is 90-100% all the time. 'Free' and 'top' shows that my memory is almoust full.
[01:46] <agliv5> ikonia_ I need to edit grub so that it no longer tries to boot from the wrong partition... I've got the .lst open but what do I change without killing everything?
[01:46] <ikonia_> innu beryl looks a bit greed
[01:46] <ikonia_> greedy
[01:46] <innu> ikonia_, i have tried stopping beryl, totem, apache, mysqld. nothing good
[01:46] <ikonia_> agliv5 put your grub config in a pastebin - then I'l query your config and give you the correct values
[01:47] <jokoon> are there any good reason Is should not install ntfs-3g ?
[01:47] <ikonia_> innu well if you can't show me whats eating the ram/cpu - its hard to tell - what spec machine is this
[01:47] <gregory> xxx
[01:47] <ikonia_> jokoon yes it can corrupt your ntfs data
[01:48] <gothic_BoY> haiii................
[01:48] <jokoon> ikonia but the driver is now 1.0 so it is still beta ?
[01:48] <ikonia_> gothic_BoY normally we say "hello"
[01:48] <innu> ikonia, amd 3000+, 1gb ram. I wan't to show, but i can't see it even myself.
[01:48] <agliv5> ikonia_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8214/ remember trying to help me out installing x264 and mplayer yesterday?
[01:48] <ikonia_> jokoon depends on the version- I don't know if its still beta - check the website
[01:49] <ikonia_> innu according to top you're using %47 cpu - and your memory looks fine
[01:49] <soundray> I need a piece of newbie C help please. I'm trying to determine a remainder with in[0] [j] %=tmpd but I get "invalid operands to binary %". "in[0] [j] /=tmpd" works...

Any ideas please?
[01:49] <innu> ikonia_, i think i found mistake. vino-server is suppicious process and i searched google. one has same problem

[01:50] <OrTigaS> how to see my thumb drive?
[01:50] <ikonia_> soundray apologies - my mistake
[01:50] <jrib> OrTigaS: you should be able to just plug it in
[01:50] <agliv5> ikonia_ well I decided that I missed 6.06 so I formated everything and installed 6.06 but now Grub is trying to mount the wrong partition... how stupid!
[01:50] <ikonia_> I'll take another look
[01:51] <ikonia_> agliv5 get the config into a pastebin and lets take a look
[01:51] <OrTigaS> it doest detect thats y i ask :P

[01:56] <ikonia_> cisforcojo you can't just delete fiels you need an application to manage teh files
[01:56] <cisforcojo> TOC?
[01:57] <soundray> cisforcojo: is it mounted as a USB mass storage device?
[01:57] <cisforcojo> ikonia: tried gtkPOD first, then said fuck it and did it manually
[01:57] <agliv5> ikonia_: sda8 = / "root" yes
[01:57] <ikonia_> I'm not up to speed on ipods - I just remember something about accesing the hard drive directly = breaks the disk TOC
[01:57] <ikonia_> cisforcojo no need for language
[01:57] <[Nige] > hi all
[01:57] <ikonia_> agliv5 ok - thats great
[01:57] <[Nige] > anyone know of a good css editor?
[01:57] <cisforcojo> soundray: i'm not sure, it's automounted and there's nothing in my fstab. i added something but that didhingn't seem to change anyt
[01:57] <jrib> cisforcojo: .Trash-*  is usually hidden on the device, not sure if you checked for hidden files
[01:57] <cisforcojo> ikonia: my mistake
[01:57] <[Nige] > the one that comes with nvu sucks
[01:58] <cisforcojo> jrib: yeah I check for it. ls -al shows nothing
[01:58] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> Hi all! I cant get folder sharing in my network to work! I have shared them as SMB-folders but i cant locate them on the "other" computer in my network!
[01:58] <ikonia_> agliv5 try changing the (hd1,0) line to (hd0,7)
[01:58] <agliv5> ikonia_:  I don't know yet what's so great about that.... FYI hda1 is only NTFS Data and has a faulty boot-sector.... but since it's only DATA, wo cares?
[01:58] <ikonia_> agliv5 I can only take an educated guess at the correct option as I don't know your system
[01:58] <ikonia_> agliv5 ahhh you have a hda1
[01:58] <soundray> cisforcojo: check on the command line with 'du /media/ipod' (assuming that it is mounted on /media/ipod)
[01:59] <ikonia_> agliv5 my mistake
[01:59] <ikonia_> agliv5 change (hd1,0) to (hd1,7)
[01:59] <ikonia_> agliv5 all instances
[01:59] <ikonia_> agliv5 I'm %90 certain that will work
[02:00] <agliv5> ikonia_:  hda1 is NTFS data no boot, sda1 is /boot, sda5 is /swap, sda7 is /home, sda8 is / "root" -- that's it...
[02:00] <ikonia_> soundray I'm not sure, but I don't think it will matter, apple uses some strange way to allocate the tOC on ipods - thats why you have to use itunes style apps to access it
[02:01] <ikonia_> agliv5 poooh you have /boot
[02:01] <OrTigaS> [17194062.700000]  usb 7-6: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 2
[02:01] <ikonia_> on a seperate partition
[02:01] <OrTigaS> [17194062.812000]  usb 7-6: device descriptor read/64, error -71
[02:01] <agliv5> ikonia_: yes
[02:01] <OrTigaS> is that my thumb drive?
[02:01] <soundray> OrTigaS: no pasting
[02:01] <ikonia_> agliv5 ok - so root should be either (hd1,0) or (hd1,7) - I can't be certain - but its one of those too
[02:01] <ikonia_> two
[02:01] <epignosis> does anyone have a recommendation for a podcast client, I used Doppler in windows. I need a client that will let me edit the artist, album, etc tag
[02:01] <soundray> OrTigaS: there is no way to tell
[02:02] <OrTigaS> what should be?
[02:02] <ikonia_> OrTigaS what are you talking about
[02:02] <soundray> OrTigaS: clearly you have a USB device that doesn't work.
[02:02] <agliv5> ikonia_: why hda? my root is sda8? is it supposed to mount sda8 to hda?
[02:02] <OrTigaS> if plug my thumb drive?
[02:02] <ikonia_> agliv5 didn't say hda  - I said hd
[02:02] <cisforcojo> du doesn't show much
[02:02] <cisforcojo> there's just nothing on the drive
[02:03] <agliv5> ikonia_: I see, what's the difference?
[02:03] <soundray> epignosis: I don't know about podcast clients, but there is an abundance of ID3 tag editors. exfalso is one I like
[02:03] <RandomizeR> hey, i have a question: i need to copy my old linux installation over a new one on a separate HD.. what files do i need to KEEP from the new installation so it'd still boot correctly? so far i know i'll need to maintain the data in /boot/grub/menu.lst and /etc/fstab (i'm actually planning to merge the configuration from the old and new installations), what else do i need to keep? plz help!
[02:03] <ikonia_> agliv5 (hd1,0) or (hd1,7)
[02:03] <ikonia_> agliv5 grub doesn't reference hard disks the same
[02:03] <OrTigaS> how t make my thumd drive work?
[02:03] <ikonia_> agliv5 all disks are "hd"
[02:03] <agliv5> ikonia_: I meant between hda and hd?
[02:04] <poningru> RandomizeR: yeah thats it as long as you keep the same kernel name and initrd image
[02:04] <ikonia_> RandomizeR you need to change the grub menu, re-install the boot sector, edit the fstab
[02:04] <ikonia_> agliv5 there is no difference, hda is how linux shows the first ide disk - hd is how grub references any hard disk
[02:04] <soundray> OrTigaS: error -71 is a sign of flaky USB hardware. Sometimes it helps to unplug and replug the device, or use a different socket.
[02:04] <RandomizeR> so other than fstab and menu.lst, i can overwrite everything else with the old installation?
[02:04] <ikonia_> agliv5 they are two different methods of accessing the hard disk - onefor the OS one for the grub boot loader
[02:04] <OrTigaS> okay thanks
[02:04] <ixiion> feisty herd 5 is delayed ,any info why ?
[02:04] <Ragnak> hi all. anyone know when is the release date for Feisty Herd 5?
[02:05] <cisforcojo> should i have to modify ubuntu to setup mounting an ipod? It seems as though this is pretty standard.
[02:05] <cisforcojo> it even mounted it to /media/ipod
[02:05] <GaiaX11> Ragnak: !feisty
[02:05] <jrib> Ragnak: #ubuntu+1 for feisty
[02:05] <Ragnak> !feisty
[02:05] <ubotu> The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn"), it should be released in April 2007. At the moment it is alpha. Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyReleaseSchedule - Specifications (goals): https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/feisty - Help in #ubuntu+1
[02:05] <ikonia_> !goodbotuse >Ragnak
[02:05] <agliv5> ikonia_: I don't think what you are suggesting is going to work... hang on a sec whist I check something...
[02:05] <ikonia_> agliv5 explain why you don't think its going to work
[02:06] <fuzz> hi guys, can someone help me get beryl to work under my ubuntu feisty?
[02:06] <Ragnak> thxs GaiaX11, jrib
[02:06] <fuzz> with dualscreen
[02:06] <OrTigaS> i just installed wine but it not shows in application
[02:06] <arkaitz_> Hey
[02:06] <OrTigaS> or system
[02:06] <soundray> OrTigaS: it's not supposed to. Read the docs
[02:06] <ikonia_> fyi : /join #ubuntu+1 for fesity and #ubuntu-effects for berylo
[02:06] <arkaitz_> how can I unistall totally a installed package and all its dependences?
[02:06] <soundray> !wine > OrTigaS
[02:06] <ikonia_> arkaitz_ use synaptic
[02:06] <OrTigaS> i want to make it show there
[02:07] <soundray> OrTigaS: read the docs please
[02:07] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> can anyone here please help me getting my shared network folders acutally *shared*?
[02:07] <arkaitz_> ikonia_ I used synaptic, the thing is that it doesnt unistall the package completely because when I install it again it doesnt have the default options but the ones I changed
[02:07] <cisforcojo> sudo apt-get autoremove will get rid of any packages that are unusesd
[02:07] <cisforcojo> unused
[02:07] <soundray> UbuntuN00B_HBG: give a problem description. Be precise.
[02:08] <cisforcojo> anyone know why my ipod would show less then half it's size?
[02:08] <freshmint> is mame available for ubuntu?
[02:08] <ikonia_> arkaitz_ probablysave the config files - select the force remove option
[02:08] <OrTigaS> already open and read part of it before i ask
[02:08] <OrTigaS> let me look
[02:08] <agliv5> ikonia_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8193  that's why...
[02:09] <guspad> freshmint, xmame
[02:09] <ikonia_> agliv5 did you try (hd1,7)
[02:09] <guspad> freshmint, yes it's
[02:09] <arkaitz_> ikonia_: where is that option?
[02:09] <ikonia_> agliv5 I said it could be either but I can't be sure as I do'nt know your system
[02:09] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> soundray: i have two computer in my home network that can ping each other, no firewall, i have shared folders on the "server" computer with Sys->Admin->SharedFolders, as SMB-folders. But the client computer cant find them!
[02:09] <ikonia_> arkaitz_ hang on
[02:09] <ikonia_> arkaitz_ look at whatyou've typed
[02:09] <freshmint> guspad, is it available in apt-get repos?
[02:09] <ikonia_> agliv5 root (hda1,0)
[02:09] <ikonia_> I said (hd1,0)
[02:10] <ikonia_> I just explained its not hda for grub - its hd
[02:10] <guspad> freshmint, do: aptitude search mame
[02:10] <shaki> hello people, somebody know the commands for bitchx for to set ident/nickname/ another server/realname/ alternate nick ? somebody knows ???
[02:10] <soundray> UbuntuN00B_HBG: what happens when you do "Places - Connect to server" and enter all the appropriate info?
[02:10] <ikonia_> shaki thats not client specific
[02:10] <guspad> freshmint, in a terminal
[02:10] <ikonia_> shaki /msg nickserv help
[02:10] <freshmint> guspad, sure
[02:11] <guspad> freshmint, u never know....
[02:11] <guspad> :P
[02:11] <agliv5> ikonia_:  I have not tried anything yet and am recluctant to because I'm currently running from the liveCD and what to get it RIGHT for the next boot ;)
[02:11] <ikonia_> agliv5 look at the root(hda1,0) line - it should be root(hd1,0) or root (hd1,7)
[02:11] <ikonia_> its either one of those
[02:12] <ikonia_> agliv5 I think its (hd1,7) - but I can't be certain
[02:12] <techie1> good morning. HOw can I read xp files from my ubuntu given now I have double boot /xp/ubuntu?
[02:12] <ikonia_> techie1 we went through this yesterday
[02:12] <freshmint> guspad, well ehmm ... i actually got no response / results?
[02:12] <cisforcojo> ?
[02:12] <ikonia_> techie1 mouont your ntfs partition
[02:12] <agliv5> ikonia_:  (hd1,7) sounds logical wish me luck ;)
[02:12] <guspad> freshmint, maybe you need to add some repos
[02:12] <ikonia_> agliv5  back in 1minute
[02:13] <soundray> agliv5: I agree with ikonia_ -- it's very likely to be (hd1,7) if you have a /dev/hda and a /dev/sda and root is on /dev/sda8
I have fat32 and not ntfs
[02:13] <techie1> does that matter
[02:13] <amorphous_> I' trying to set up some systems in various places and have files on them updated by a high ranking user on iether one of those machines, or his home one. In order to do this I'm guessing i need to set variables for the ip addresses of the various machines. Anyone know where is the place to put the command that runs the script to set the IP addresses into variables? is it .bashrc or bashpro
[02:13] <freshmint> guspad, i enabled the universe repo in /etc/apt/...
[02:13] <amorphous_> I' trying to set up some systems in various places and have files on them updated by a high ranking user on iether one of those machines, or his home one.

[02:13] <amorphous_> sorry - didn't mean that
[02:14] <eilker>  i have 32 packages to ugrade, how can i do this from console ? sudo apt-get upgrade ??
[02:14] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> soundray: when configuring... is "Server" the hostname of the "server computer" or the domain name?
[02:14] <amorphous_> eilker - you got it!
[02:14] <guspad> freshmint, Section: multiverse/games
[02:14] <guspad> freshmint, u need multiverse also
[02:14] <amorphous_> eilker, but sudo apt-get update first (i think)
[02:15] <soundray> amorphous_: it would be atypical to put IP addresses in variables. Use DNS or /etc/hosts
[02:15] <soundray> UbuntuN00B_HBG: hostname
[02:15] <agliv5> soundray: thanks and If I don't come back then I guess it worked ;)
[02:15] <eilker> amorphous_: i did both, but it doent upgare,
[02:15] <soundray> agliv5: do come back and give us feedback.
[02:15] <eilker> it says  "The following packages have been kept back:" why _?
[02:15] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> soundray: and hostname is what i see leftmost in a terminal as well?
[02:15] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> soundray: left of the @
[02:16] <agliv5> soundray: ok :) Adios Amigos :)
[02:16] <soundray> UbuntuN00B_HBG: no, that would be the username. Just run hostname on the server.
[02:16] <freshmint> guspad, i cant find it in the source list. will i have to make a new entry?
[02:16] <soundray> UbuntuN00B_HBG: ie. 'hostname' on a line by itself
[02:17] <demosh> heyhey
[02:17] <amorphous_> soundray, ok - the ip addresses are DHCP - the providor wants to charge for static. It means he has to be able to change a given address if the address changes, and it has to be simple - so i thought just a text doc to set the variables... would that be problematic?
[02:17] <guspad> freshmint, yes, or try to add the word multiverse to some of the existing lines
[02:17] <demosh> any pointers, good documentation, etc relating to pocketpc syncing
[02:17] <amorphous_> eilker, does it not say why?
[02:18] <soundray> eilker: 'sudo apt-get dist-upgrade'. If that fails, pastebin the output from 'sudo apt-get -f install'
[02:18] <techie1> Ikonia. do you have any links which explain how to mount nfts or fat32?
[02:18] <guspad> freshmint, remeber to do apt-get update
[02:18] <ikonia_> !ntfs >techie1
[02:18] <teeL> Is it possible to use a digital camera as a webcam?
[02:18] <ikonia_> techie1 or you can just use the "places" tab
[02:18] <ikonia_> teeL I don't believe so unless its a video camera
[02:19] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> soundray: ok... well... "Connect to server" and entering only my hostname, than trying to open it gives me "Couldnt show all contents of..."
[02:19] <soundray> amorphous_: no, just unusual. You can set those variables in $HOME/.bashrc or system-wide in /etc/environment... but for a clean solution, have a look at www.dyndns.org
thank you. That makes more sense about going to places... thanks.
[02:19] <freshmint> guspad, before or afterward. must be after i added the source ...
[02:19] <teeL> ikonia_ : It can record video too =p
[02:19] <amorphous_> thanks soundray :)
[02:19] <ikonia_> teeL but can it stream video - most cameas can't
[02:19] <ikonia_> techie1 no problem
[02:19] <guspad> freshmint, yes after
[02:20] <soundray> UbuntuN00B_HBG: then you haven't got sufficient permissions on the shared directory on the server side.
[02:20] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> soundray: chmod 777 -r [shared dir] ?
[02:20] <ikonia_> UbuntuN00B_HBG it server side
[02:20] <freshmint> guspad, is http://si.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy multiverse what im looking for?
[02:20] <ikonia_> UbuntuN00B_HBG not client side
[02:21] <guspad> uhh breezy
[02:21] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> ikonia_: you mean i need to chmod the folder on the server side?
[02:21] <soundray> UbuntuN00B_HBG: 777 is not at all safe. Use chown and 770 or 700 preferably.
[02:21] <ikonia_> UbuntuN00B_HBG well certainly not 7777
[02:22] <eilker> soundray : The following packages have been (packages names) .0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 32 not upgraded.
[02:22] <ikonia_> UbuntuN00B_HBG you need to make sure you client use is in the correct group on the server
[02:22] <guspad>  freshmint yes, something like this... deb  http://si.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy main restricted universe multiverse
[02:22] <soundray> !pastebin | eilker, please put your apt-get -f install output there
[02:22] <ubotu> eilker, please put your apt-get -f install output there: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[02:23] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> ikonia_: where do i check the group of the client?
[02:23] <ikonia_> UbuntuN00B_HBG doesn't matter - you don't get it
[02:23] <ikonia_> UbuntuN00B_HBG just change the permissions
[02:23] <jrib> screen ssh -D 8080 anapnea.net
[02:24] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> ikonia_: how then?
[02:24] <ikonia_> UbuntuN00B_HBG just change the permissions
[02:25] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> ikonia_: chmod on the server?
[02:25] <ikonia_> UbuntuN00B_HBG yup
[02:25] <eilker> soundray : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8217/
[02:25] <eilker> i did it
[02:25] <soundray> UbuntuN00B_HBG: chown user.group /shared/dir if you want to change ownership
[02:25] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> in my case the shared folder is /home/Musik so...
[02:25] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> chmod 770 /home/Musik    ?
[02:26] <ikonia_> UbuntuN00B_HBG you need to work out the correct permissions 770 is pointless if the samba use is not in the right group
[02:26] <soundray> UbuntuN00B_HBG: at some point, you will have to go and check it out for yourself
[02:26] <JackW90> was up?

[02:28] <ikonia_> thank you
[02:28] <soundray> eilker: this is probably going to resolve itself on one of the next upgrade cycles. Do you have any problems with your installation?
[02:29] <eilker> soundray : yes i have, i cant get kdm
[02:30] <sdide> apt-get install kdm?
[02:30] <soundray> eilker: 'sudo apt-get install kdm' -- can you pastebin those errors as well please
[02:31] <mike1o> !italian
[02:31] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[02:31] <sdide> is the old convention of "# some_command" and "$ some_command" meaning execute as root and normal user respectively - all forgotten?
[02:32] <ikonia_> sdide no - its still used
[02:32] <agliv> Well I'm back and it didn't work... but I think I know why....
[02:32] <eilker> soundray : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8218/ this is from kdm .log
[02:32] <ikonia_> agliv details
[02:32] <Chousuke> sdide: the difference is that sudo commands are executed as user. .)
[02:32] <freshmint> guspad, again back to the mame thing i added the repo. apt-get found the package put didnt install it
[02:32] <eilker> soundray : btw , kdm is already the newest version.
[02:33] <eilker> soundray : i have installed and reinstalled i810 drivers many times...
[02:33] <agliv> ikonia_:  it said that (hda1, 7) no such partition... which I guess makes sence... I only have 5 partitions... so why should there be a partition 7....
[02:33] <eilker> soundray : i had no problem in 6.06, i just upgraded 6.10 and problem occured
[02:34] <ikonia_> agliv how can you only have 5 partitions when you are using sda8 ?
[02:34] <guspad> freshmint, u can try installing xmame-x or kxmame
[02:34] <agliv> ikonia_: that's just the way gparted set everything up....
[02:34] <ikonia_> agliv nah - show me the output of sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda
[02:35] <soundray> ikonia_: sda1 primary, sda2 extended, sda5, sda6, sda7, sda8 logical -- five "visible" ones
[02:35] <ikonia_> agliv put it a pastebin please
[02:35] <ikonia_> ughhhhhh stupid gparted
[02:35] <soundray> agliv: I think the problem may be the space -- use (hda1,7) instead of (hda1, 7)
[02:35] <toodles> eilker: I had a similar problem when I upgraded. Mine was fixed by running "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" twice.
[02:35] <EnsignRedshirt> Is anyone else having trouble with Firefof after today's upgrade?  For example, now Edit->Preferences does nothing.
[02:35] <EnsignRedshirt> *Firefox
[02:35] <ikonia_> soundray I didn't say to put in a space, must be a typo
[02:36] <eilker> toodles: it doesnt work for me
[02:36] <ikonia_> soundray won't grub still only see 5 partitions so it should be hd1,4
[02:36] <cisforcojo> hey guys, this ipod problem is killing me
[02:36] <sdide> I have no problems with Firefox.
[02:36] <soundray> ikonia_: yep, me neither
[02:36] <ikonia_> soundray as grub counts partitions - not references names
[02:36] <cisforcojo> /dev/sda2              3944260   2630520   1313740  67% /media/ipod
[02:36] <Eko_Hermiyanto> hello
[02:36] <Eko_Hermiyanto> I have an ubuntu system with GNOME desktop
[02:36] <cisforcojo> it registers as a 4GB drive but there's NOTHING on the device
[02:36] <ikonia_> cisforcojo I gave you a possible solution
[02:36] <Eko_Hermiyanto> how I can chance the spash screen?
[02:36] <cisforcojo> just formatting folders
[02:36] <ikonia_> cisforcojo did you research it
[02:36] <cisforcojo> ikonia: i might have missed it
[02:36] <Eko_Hermiyanto> because there is only gdmsetup

[02:36] <freshmint> guspad, xmame isnt in PATH (/usr/bin/.) the terminal doesnt have to command

[02:37] <sdide> does anyone know how I can restart blackbox with a command (not using the menu).
[02:37] <Eko_Hermiyanto> how I can set-up the spash screen?
[02:37] <cisforcojo> ikonia: yeah a lot. even posted on ubuntuforums
[02:37] <agliv> soundray: that space might just be a typo from me now and not in the grub.lst... I'd have to check...
[02:37] <freshmint> guspad, does xmame come as RE
[02:37] <ikonia_> cisforcojo you can't access an ipod drive nativly you need a 3rd party app like itunes to keep the TOC updated
[02:37] <ikonia_> cisforcojo your TOC probably still thinks you've got 4 gig of data on there as the TOC has not been updated
[02:37] <jrib> Eko_Hermiyanto: which one?
[02:37] <mike1o> how do i add extra languages spell checking in openoffice?
[02:37] <cisforcojo> even when i use gtkPod or something it doesn't list the free space
[02:37] <EnsignRedshirt> I am using Dapper, and after today's update, Edit-Preferences does not, and Tools->Extensions pops up an error window saying "XML Parsing Error: not well-formed"

[02:38] <Eko_Hermiyanto> jrib, yes it is
[02:38] <amorphous_> soundray, i'm very noob - dyndns.com is going a bit over my head - do you know of any simple/laymans texts for networking explanations?
[02:38] <spinster> mneptok: ok
[02:38] <jrib> !splash | Eko_Hermiyanto
[02:38] <ubotu> Eko_Hermiyanto: To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.
[02:38] <eilker> soundray : thanx
[02:38] <ikonia_> amorphous_ its nothing to do with ubuntu try ##linux for general linux networking
[02:38] <OrTigaS> hi! if i downloaded a program and wanted to be in "Apllications tab" ,how to do that?
[02:38] <Eko_Hermiyanto> jrib, ubotu thank you very much
[02:39] <toodles> eilker: Hmm. I know that many people had problems upgrading from 6.04 to 6.10 and the only solution seemed to be to reinstall. However your problem seems like it's fixable. Just don't know how (yet).
[02:39] <agliv> Does anyone know how to address multiple nicknames with the same message?
[02:39] <amorphous_> ikonia, thanks :)
[02:39] <EnsignRedshirt> sdide, soundray: Are you using Dapper?  Do you have any extensions installed in Firefox?
[02:39] <guspad> freshmint, i think it's a virtual package u should install an other, something like http://my.opera.com/Mr%20Green/blog/show.dml/171040
[02:39] <soundray> eilker: it might be easiest if you tried to upgrade the "held" packages with synaptic.
[02:39] <apokryphos> agliv: in IRC?
[02:39] <agliv> apokryphos: yes
[02:39] <soundray> EnsignRedshirt: no dapper here
[02:39] <sdide> Using edgy. no extensions
[02:39] <apokryphos> agliv: just mention all of the names in your post.
[02:39] <ikonia_> agliv just space the nicks out
[02:40] <eilker> soundray : it cant allow, it says broken
[02:40] <soundray> amorphous_: http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/linag2/book/index.html
[02:40] <agliv> ikonia_:  apokryphos Hey, it works... cool :)
[02:40] <eilker> toodles: it takes to much time...to reinstall
[02:40] <soundray> eilker: which package is broken?
[02:40] <Eko_Hermiyanto> jrib, there is no such program in default installation... but I can manage to install it with apt-get... thank you so much
[02:40] <mike1o> i installed openoffice.org-thesaurus-it & openoffice.org-l10n-it but i still cant spell check documents in italian? does anybody know why?
[02:40] <ikonia_> agliv me and soundray differ in opinion here so either could be right, from memory I thought grub counted the partitions so that the 4th partition would be (hd1,3) rather than (hd1,6) - I think it counts the partitions, soundray thinks it gets the ID from the partition name
[02:41] <zyth> mikalaukka, did you specify the dictionaries in openoffice?
[02:41] <zyth> er mike1o
[02:41] <soundray> ikonia_: that's not what I said though ;)
[02:41] <toodles> eilker: Yeah, I know. Mind you, using the live cd to install is getting quicker and quicker. 20mins on my machine. It's just all the extra programs then take forever.
[02:41] <ikonia_> mike1o someone in #ubuntu-it may
[02:41] <eilker> python things, now i did aptitude , it makes some upgrade and downgrade
[02:41] <ikonia_> soundray I may have missunderstood you
[02:41] <agliv> ikonia_:  now how did we get my HD mounted under the LiveCD again... I have a terrible short-term memory....
[02:41] <ikonia_> agliv use the mount commmand - mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
[02:41] <ikonia_> with sudo
[02:42] <sdide> mike1o: # apt-get install aspell-it ?
[02:42] <soundray> ikonia_, agliv: the result is the same though -- to get the grub partition number, you subtract one from the number in the Linux device name.
[02:42] <ikonia_> agliv tell you what - install open ssh server on your live cd - and I'll ssh in and fix the gurb boot loader
[02:42] <eilker> soundray : i had kdevelop too, does it make crash ??
[02:42] <ikonia_> soundray is that true of the number or the position on the partition table
[02:42] <agliv> ikonia_:  soundray seeing as how sda8 is my last partiton (I think) wouldn't -1 work?
[02:42] <ikonia_> agliv -1 ??? no
[02:43] <soundray> eilker: no
[02:43] <eilker> toodles: live cd on download now ?
[02:43] <toodles> eilker: Yeah, the 6.10 one.
[02:43] <ikonia_> agliv if you give me access to your box I'll tee the output so you can see what I type and I'll explain it too so that you understand
[02:44] <erikja> !sound
[02:44] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

[02:50] <soundray> eilker: no, I don't think so
[02:50] <erikja> !sound >erikja
[02:50] <bullgard1> dartrunner: I would google fpr 'Linux' and 'Compaq Armada 7400' and 'sound card'
[02:50] <soundray> eilker: have you followed these instructions: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/i810
[02:51] <jussi01> invisibleman, it can be, just depends what you want. if dapper is working fine, dont bother
[02:51] <ToeNad> I'm interested to see what iptables modules have been compiled into the default kernel, can anyone point me in the correct direction?
[02:52] <rmathews_> how do I get sound working on Xubuntu Edgy.  I have an old SiS 630/730 motherboard with an on board card.  Not sure what chipset .. think it is 7018 or 7012 .. any ideas? (was disconnected)
[02:52] <dartrunner> bullgard1: I have and can't really find anything
[02:52] <invisibleman> jussi01, dapper is really good, but there is a better performance on edgy? is it too slow?
[02:52] <zyth> ;)
[02:54] <eilker> soundray : no i didnt, let me try
[02:55] <bullgard1> dartrunner: I have had similar problems, but with other hardware. May be it helps to google for the specific error message that you obtained.
[02:55] <soundray> ToeNad: less /boot/config-$(uname -r)
[02:55] <jussi01> invisibleman, edgy has similar performance - have you thought about trying xubuntu?
[02:58] <dartrunner> bullgard1: not getting any error message, unless I try to open an app that uses sound, then I get a message that there is no device to write to.
[03:01] <bullgard1> dartrunner: This message is not helpful for your purpose. As I do not know your soundcard I cannot help you. Sorry.

[03:07] <jrib> mag_: yeah ~ means /home/$USER .  There's also ~/.mozilla/firefox/UNIQUE_ID.default .  You could just get rid of that instead.
[03:07] <EnsignRedshirt> gili: You shouldn't have to run them as root. In the past, I have seen your problem caused by the file .ICEAuthority in your home directory being owned by root.  Maybe check that.
[03:08] <cable_guy> hi

[03:13] <cable_guy> jussi01: hmm... that's interesting... will i be getting the exact same thing?
[03:13] <dr_willis> witless,  scp will do encryption also.. so should be a little bit slower.

[03:45] <Tomcat_> dyrne: Well in the case of a router problem he shouldn't be getting 404s :)
[03:45] <etcadmin> I get the apache2 404 page, not the normal browser 404 page too
[03:45] <etcadmin> at least thats what I think I get
[03:47] <etcadmin> I will try a different network cable and port
[03:47] <skar> hi, anyone know how to find the package which contains the 'net-snmp-config' utility?
[03:47] <bhsx> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype
[03:47] <harveyd> i cant same a multiline shell script in kate
[03:48] <harveyd> it screws up
[03:48] <harveyd> using unix line ending
[03:48] <harveyd> by screwed up i mean it wont run a command after i add another line
[03:49] <jrib> harveyd: example?
[03:49] <Dr_willis> when in doubt make a simple test case, (like with just echoing things) and show the issue.
[03:50] <SeanTater> What programs are available for automatically converting between office formats?
[03:50] <harveyd> http://cpp.sourceforge.net/?show=32065
[03:50] <jrib> skar: yeah, packages.ubuntu.com lets you search package contents.  Or use apt-file
[03:50] <etcadmin> Oh yeah, BTW, even when the 404 and ssh errors occur, I can still ping the machine
[03:50] <skar> jrib: thanks
[03:51] <harveyd> first 2 lines are the shell script ./compile_code
[03:51] <dyrne> harveyd: i had same problem using mcedit once.  my solution since then has been vim :)
[03:51] <baggito> i still don't get it. generic or 386?
[03:51] <jrib> harveyd: you forgot the shebang
[03:51] <dyrne> harveyd: any ideas in #kubuntu?
[03:52] <jrib> harveyd: you aren't in the right directory
[03:52] <harveyd> would #!/bin/bash help?
[03:52] <kbd> quiet: Actually that doesn't seem to do anything for me, instead after the splash comes up and the login sound plays, nothing happens. The splash stays there.
[03:52] <orangefly> i have a dell latitude d520....i am dual booting windows and ubuntu....the only thing stopping me from using only ubuntu is i can't get my wireless to work....if someone can help, i'll be free of windows....
[03:52] <quiet> right... with no icons, right?
[03:52] <kbd> quiet: yup
[03:52] <jrib> harveyd: it won't fix the fact you aren't in the right directory, but you should have that shebang line there, yes
[03:53] <quiet> go to console and rm -rf ~/.gtk*
[03:53] <kbd> I did :/
[03:53] <quiet> hrm.. hold on
[03:53] <harveyd> jrib, "I" am in the correct directory
[03:54] <jrib> harveyd: paste result of 'ls'
[03:54] <Dr_willis> you could also try 'bash compile_code'
[03:54] <Dr_willis> byeee
[03:54] <freezey> can i format my external harddrive through a linux terminal?>
[03:55] <harveyd> http://cpp.sourceforge.net/?show=32066
[03:55] <wheels3572> Can anyone tell me how to extract a .tar.gz file to a specific location?
[03:55] <harveyd> thats with the 'shebang'
[03:55] <kbd> ah crap, quiet: I have to leave *rightnow* for a job interview
[03:55] <dyrne> freezey: mkfs.vfat /dev/sda1     or .ext3 or whatnot
[03:55] <kbd> bbl everyone!
[03:56] <quiet> kbd, you can create a new user and then cp -Rfv ~/newuser ~/olduser
[03:56] <jrib> harveyd: oh I see... you said kate did this?  that's really weird...  You can use dos2unix to convert the script, but kate shouldn't be doing this.  Check its preferences maybe
[03:56] <freezey> dyrne: the drive is already mounted and its not formated yet it still has NTFS on it
[03:56] <harveyd> bah, i put the files on windows to transfer them
[03:57] <madison> towers
[03:57] <bhsx> i've been trying like heck to get Beryl installed and working.  I've gotten the white screen or a loss of 3d drivers each time... can anyone help me out?  6.10 and ATI x300...
[03:57] <harveyd> but i didnt even open them in windows, that sucks
[03:57] <dyrne> freezey: youll have to sudo umount /mountpoint   first then do the mkfs command
[03:57] <a5benwillis> can a sim link be created using the%user variable?
[03:57] <dyrne> freezey: maybe i misunderstood the question
[03:57] <harveyd> will something go through a whole folder changing dos2unix?
[03:58] <jrib> a5benwillis: what is the %user variable?
[03:58] <dyrne> a5benwillis: mod user?   or you mean like ln -s /something /home/$USER/shortcut
[04:00] <a5benwillis> dyrne: I want to create a simlink to a folder in a users home folder that does not yet exist and put this sym link in /etc/skel so that all new users getthe link on their desktop.
[04:00] <JohnRobert> ok
[04:00] <JohnRobert> to create a link to something that doesn't exist, it'd probably be ln -fs or something
[04:01] <jrib> harveyd: to do it recusively, you would use 'find'.  If you use zsh:  dos2unix **/* would do the trick...
[04:02] <harveyd> its cool, think i found all the shell script
[04:02] <harveyd> doesnt seem to have affected my source files luckily

[04:07] <etcadmin> Hi all, I am running ubuntu 6.10 server and I am getting disconnected every once in a while from the server. It is running apache2 and ssh. I connect to the site fine for most times, but every once in a while I get a 404 error. It then disconnects me from ssh and tells me the connection is refused on port 22 when trying to reconnect. It lasts for a few minutes and then I can refresh again. Can anyone help?
[04:07] <Gurpartap> :-)
[04:07] <jrib> zeroflox: what are you trying to install?
[04:07] <zeroflox> cmospwd

[04:14] <etcadmin> thanks
[04:14] <HymnToLife> etcadmin, connection problems, most likely
[04:14] <HymnToLife> look for damaged ethernet cables or such things
[04:15] <etcadmin> well, I get intermittent connection to ssh and apache2 but I can always ping it
[04:15] <skywalker___> I have a question about virtualbox.. If I turn up the base memory and video memory with this effect linux?
[04:16] <dxdemetriou> I have installed the apt-build with mtune to athlon-xp, but it build the packages as i386. Anybody knows if I can fix it?
[04:16] <jussi01> skywalker___, yes, it does affect linux
[04:16] <etcadmin> I had it connected to a swtich that my computer was connected to, but I have just moved it to the buildings routers. I hope this will fix the issue, but I don't know yet
[04:16] <skywalker___> aeee jussi01 thanks
[04:17] <jussi01> basically by doing that, you are taking away from linux the memory you give to virtalbox

[04:20] <SpaceBass> hey folks
[04:20] <xamox> because I want speed scheduling
[04:20] <jussi01> !deluge | xamox
[04:20] <ubotu> xamox: deluge is a new Bittorrent client, created using Python and GTK+, intended to bring a native, full-featured client to !GTK environments such as GNOME and Xfce - See http://deluge-torrent.org/ for more information
[04:20] <xamox> But I'm having a bitch of a time getting AzSMRC to work
[04:20] <SpaceBass> I'm trying to install krb5-user on 6.10 server and having a hell of a time
[04:20] <Jaguar> ...I'm actually not having any problems :)
[04:20] <xamox> ubotu, Well I want it to run on my NAS server but remotely connect with my other machine
[04:20] <SpaceBass> i keep getting errors that it wants an older version of the libkrb53 library and I cannot seem to resolve them

[04:21] <xamox> jussi01, I have too many channels open and just glance at stuff.
[04:21] <jussi01> lol
[04:21] <xamox> jussi01, I'll take a look at deluge, thx
[04:21] <jussi01> np's, I dont know if that helps you though
[04:22] <jussi01> I didnt read your question too well either
[04:22] <Jaguar> skywalker__: Sorry, I thought I would be a smart ass, I came in and the first two things I saw were "having a hell of a time" and "having a bitch of a time"/

[04:22] <xamox> jussi01, does it support bandwidth scheduling and remote adding of torrents?
[04:23] <skywalker___> jaguar whatever
[04:23] <SpaceBass> jrib, sources http://www.pastebin.ca/378480
[04:23] <jussi01> xamox, Im not too sure, it has its on forum on ubuntuforums, so maybe chack that out
[04:23] <SpaceBass> jrib, policy http://www.pastebin.ca/378481
[04:23] <dyrne> xamox: plugins are limited at this time. still pretty new
[04:24] <jrib> SpaceBass: is this dapper or edgy?
[04:24] <SpaceBass> jrib, I'm new to ubuntu and apt-get ;)
[04:24] <SpaceBass> edgy
[04:24] <xamox> dyrne, alright, thx

[04:24] <ubotu> SpaceBass: source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[04:25] <SpaceBass> jrib, thanks....I had seen a web post where someone suggested the dapper sources to get the kerberos stuff working
[04:28] <SpaceBass> jrib,  that did it!
[04:28] <SpaceBass> thanks!
[04:28] <rysiek|pl> guys, anybody tried to run newest ati drivers on ubuntu?
[04:28] <jef`> nope
[04:28] <jrib> SpaceBass: np
[04:28] <jef`> i'm interseted thoug
[04:28] <jef`> rysiek|pl: tell me how they run
[04:28] <rysiek|pl> jef`: kids, do *NOT* try this at home
[04:28] <jussi01> rysiek|pl, is there a proble,m?
[04:29] <jef`> ryanakca: i'm not a kid. and I've used much riskier things than a few midinght ati releases.
[04:29] <jef`> rysiek|pl: *
[04:29] <Jaguar> rysieklpl: I think that the Envy script now supports installing the newst ATI drivers, but you'll have to double check.
[04:29] <Martyo> Is it possible to start a shell script from a desktop shortcut but not add it to the taskbar?
[04:30] <rysiek|pl> jef`: ati/amd has taken fscking the drivers up to the next level with introducing some daemon that apparently monitors the changes in xorg.conf and whatever you do to try to make it work - it changes it back to default
[04:30] <rysiek|pl> not to mention that the drivers just don't work(tm)
[04:30] <jef`> rysiek|pl: kill the daemon & remove it from your rc?
[04:31] <reisii> hi can somebody helf me?
[04:31] <d0dge> Could anyone help me with this error: "cannot find curses library
[04:31] <jef`> just ask, reisii
[04:31] <rysiek|pl> jef`: I just chmod a-w xorg.conf for now
[04:31] <jef`> k
[04:31] <javiolo> xamox rtorrent
[04:31] <rysiek|pl> jef`: first of all I want to get the xserver to run the drivers, then I can play with the daemon
[04:31] <reisii> please look at this site http://s2.bitefight.de/c.php?uid=52181
[04:31] <jrib> d0dge: what are you trying to compile?
[04:31] <xamox> javiolo, alright, I'll give it a look, thx
[04:31] <mando> Looking for an easy to use torrent client, that shows me all files in one window with it's speed, remaining time and so on ... Got Azureus, but can't set it up :S
[04:32] <d0dge> jrib: I'm trying to ./configure program called gtmess (console msn messenger)

[04:32] <d0dge> pro
[04:32] <d0dge> profnorf: thanks*

[04:33] <d0dge> jrib: I installed it already :/
[04:33] <etcadmin> Can anyone help me figure out why my server is giving 404 errors?
[04:33] <harmental> has anybody tried acrobat reader 8.0 on ubuntu?
[04:34] <jussi01> etcadmin, have you openend port 80 on the firewall?
[04:34] <etcadmin> yes
[04:34] <xamox> mando, I had Azureus, running on my NAS, was using AzSMRC to connect to it and it was nice, but moved to Ubuntu on my main platform and AzSMRC doesn't want to play nice, so I'm just thinking of moving to something else, plus Azureus eats up a lot of mem.
[04:34] <etcadmin> its intermittent
[04:34] <etcadmin> I can always ping the computer
[04:34] <etcadmin> but sometimes I get disconnected from ssh and the apache
[04:35] <jussi01> etcadmin, not really sure, how is your net connection?
[04:35] <etcadmin> I'm in an education environemt
[04:36] <mando> xamox: I know, but isn't every torrent client eatin up a lot of mem ? So do you have any other suggestions ?
[04:36] <mando> xamox: find the window, that shows up on ubuntu when you download a torrent just innoing ...
[04:36] <etcadmin> my laptop connects to a gigswitch, then to the 10/100 switch for the rest of the network. Server connects to the same 10/100 switch
[04:37] <Jaguar> etcadmin: University networks are notoriously unstable, I have some friends that can't keep a lot of their persistent connections for more than 25 minutes, it's awful.
[04:37] <etcadmin> we run a bunch of servers and this is the only one that disconnects
[04:37] <etcadmin> the computer and server was connected to the same gig switch
[04:37] <etcadmin> that seemed to give me more 404 errors

[04:45] <etcadmin> sudo /etc/ini.d/ssh start
[04:45] <etcadmin> I think
[04:45] <merc> sshd
[04:45] <dyrne> Jvik: it is started already if tyou 'ps -A | grep sshd' youll see it but sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart  will do it
[04:45] <etcadmin> sudo /etc/init.d/sshd start
[04:45] <merc> nope
[04:45] <Jaguar> Scanztz: You could run apt-get check or apt-get --fix-broken
[04:45] <merc> i was wrong :D
[04:46] <etcadmin> me too
[04:46] <merc> yours was a typo though..
[04:46] <merc> wait, i mean, so was mine..
[04:46] <Jvik> sudo: /etc/init.d/sshd: command not found

[04:46] <etcadmin> lol

[04:46] <Jvik> none of them worked

[04:48] <gharz> nice job... it worked with vlc!
[04:48] <pi_> Yestarday night I've turn off my pc with Edgy; today when the system show the login window, I insert my login and password and the system seems to start but shows another time the login window.
[04:48] <pi_> any idea?

[04:48] <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
[04:48] <rysiek|pl> jussi01: thanks! :)
[04:48] <Jaguar> jussi01: I'll check let you answer everything :P
[04:48] <jussi01> np's
[04:49] <pi_> error in locking authority file /home/pi/.Xauthority
[04:49] <merc> damn, ubotu hates automatix
[04:49] <soundray> pi_: your disk might be full. Examine $HOME/.xsession-errors to find out what's wrong
[04:49] <jussi01> Jaguar, sorry, didnt mean to jump the gun..
[04:49] <Scanztz> dude, wat do i do now? im hatingthis
[04:49] <pi_> ok, just moment
[04:49] <Jaguar> jussi01: Hehe, no, you saved me a lot of typing.
[04:49] <merc> Scanztz: fixing the broken stuff iddnt work?
[04:49] <Scanztz> it didnt seem like anything broken
[04:49] <jrib> pi_: check permissions on ~/.Xauthority too
[04:50] <merc> Scanztz: it told you that?
[04:50] <pi_> I have tried to set 777
[04:50] <pi_> nothing
[04:50] <pi_> the problem is always the same
[04:50] <jrib> pi_: what does  ls -l ~/.Xauthority    return?
[04:51] <jussi01> Scanztz, when did the problem start? did you try to install something?
[04:51] <pi_> -rw------
[04:51] <jrib> no, the whole line
[04:51] <Scanztz> easyubuntu
[04:51] <Scanztz> it wont let me install the codecs
[04:51] <merc> brb.
[04:52] <Chameleon22> hi all, is there an easy way to grep for info out of a CHM file from command line (need to script for 100's of files)?
[04:52] <idiot_> are there any tools to get statistics on disk read writes?
[04:52] <jussi01> how did you install it? from a deb?
[04:52] <idiot_> like a top for disks?
[04:52] <Taime1> is there a program that lets oyu create your own fonts?
[04:53] <jussi01> Scanztz, how did you install it? from a deb?
[04:53] <Scanztz> think so
[04:53] <mastertsunami> i'm running feisty and upgrading every day or so, but I find that I miss packages even when issuing a dist-upgrade; is this going to be problem when 7.04 is completed or is there some switch they throw?
[04:54] <Scanztz> dont remember
[04:54] <Scanztz> surely there is a package?
[04:54] <dyrne> Chameleon22: like for i in "./*"; do grep something $i;done  ?
[04:54] <jussi01> mastertsunami, #ubuntu+1
[04:54] <GFawkes> hello, i need some help with configuring my X700 vga card, is there anyone who can help me?
[04:55] <jussi01> Scanztz, I think maybe sudo apt-get install easyubuntu --reinstall may work
[04:55] <Chameleon22> dyrne, well sort of, the main question if how to grep information from a CHM formatted file, CHM is a binary file
[04:55] <Scanztz> but i have already installed a few packages
[04:55] <Scanztz> is that ok?
[04:55] <jussi01> GFawkes, what brand is that ati?
[04:55] <Chameleon22> dyrne, but say xchm can view/render the  file. What i want is the same from cli
[04:55] <jussi01> Scanztz, should be fine
[04:55] <dyrne> Chameleon22: yeah sorry ;p  im not sure about parsing chm files
[04:56] <GFawkes> its made by ati self i think, its an Ati Radeon Mobility X700
[04:56] <Chameleon22> dyrne, me neither :(

[04:56] <tuna-fish> What is the best program for burning audio cd:s for ubuntu?
[04:56] <Jaguar> jussi01: I can see why you guys made that script.
[04:56] <DaveTarmac> ok folks - back again with more networking questions.
[04:56] <GFawkes> can i just apt-get install envy that?
[04:57] <Guerrand> GFawkes .. no ... but follow the instructions its really really simple
[04:57] <jussi01> Jaguar, we didnt - alberto milone did, but its very good :D
[04:57] <Jaguar> jussi01: I meant the !envy @ ubotu.
[04:57] <jussi01> GFawkes, go to the page listed there, it has all the instruction
[04:57] <vignesh> Hi
[04:57] <GFawkes> o dear a commandline app :(
[04:57] <Jaguar> But yeah, Envy is impressive.
[04:57] <jussi01> Jaguar, hehe, yeah, there are lots of good ones
[04:58] <LinTux> how can I open a RAR file in Linux?
[04:58] <jussi01> GFawkes, just copy and paste - the instructions are made for ubuntu
[04:58] <vignesh> I am unable to see the mic control in the gnome volume mixer.. anyway to enable the mic ?

[04:58] <vignesh> I have an Intel 946GZ motherboard
[04:58] <Scanztz> einstallation of easyubuntu is not possible, it cannot be downloaded.
[04:58] <Scanztz> 0 up
[04:59] <DaveTarmac> I have changed my network encryption back to WEP, and I'm pretty sure that I have installed the MadWifi driver (is there a way I can check?) but how do i get it to access the network?
[04:59] <jussi01> Scanztz, I think maybe sudo apt-get remove easyubuntu could work also then try and reinstall
[05:00] <raul> silly question: its normal when gnome-panel and xchat get 4.0 GB of RAM in the System Monitor?
[05:00] <jussi01> raul, no, not normal
[05:01] <jussi01> Guerrand, yes, 101 q's are normal
[05:01] <jussi01> lol
[05:01] <raul> jussi01: what u think is wrong
[05:01] <Guerrand> oh :S
[05:01] <vignesh> anyone ?
[05:01] <jussi01> raul, how so?
[05:02] <mksds> hey

[05:03] <agliv> soundray: were you helping me out earlier together with ikonia_ ?
[05:03] <jussi01> !hi | mksds
[05:03] <ubotu> mksds: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:03] <SpaceBass> any canonical folks here?
[05:03] <SnCln1> morning people!  I'm looking to authenticate my machine in an AD2003 environment.  Have you done this before?
[05:03] <soundray> agliv: not really, but I remember the conversation :)
[05:03] <Taime1> can you make your own fonts in linux?
[05:03] <Lunar_Lamp> I want to install a pastebin on my own webserver so that it will be private to people with only the password.  How do I do this?
[05:04] <soundray> agliv: how are you getting on?
[05:04] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, I have....and in the process of doing it again with edgey server
[05:04] <agliv> soundray: well in any case it didn't work again
[05:04] <raul> jussi01: just forget it, I chek ps command line and everything is ok... just system monitor is going crazy
[05:04] <riaal_> yey!! my graphic card woks!!!! thanks everyone who helped me!
[05:04] <soundray> agliv: so ikonia didn't fix it for you?
[05:04] <agliv> soundray: root (hd1,7) Error 22: No Such partition
[05:05] <SnCln1> SpaceBass: you've authenticated to an AD2003 environment?  In the work environment even?
[05:05] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, which version?
[05:05] <giuseppe_> ciao a tutti
[05:05] <GFawkes> ubuntu froze up again when i tried it....
[05:05] <SnCln1> I'm on feisty atm.
[05:05] <agliv> soundray: I'm really tired of messing arround with this... can I delete all partitions but the one with data and re-partition & re-install?
[05:05] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, yep...mostly with suse but also with 6.10 desktop
[05:06] <soundray> agliv: it's possible that grub swaps your drives for some reason. Try dropping to the grub commandline (hit C on the boot meu) and run geometry (hd0) and geometry (hd1)
[05:06] <SnCln1> SpaceBass: cool, did you follow a tutorial do authenticate?
[05:06] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, you using desktop or server?
[05:06] <SnCln1> SpaceBass: desktop
[05:06] <jussi01> GFawkes, try printing the instructions out and starting in recovery mode
[05:06] <soundray> agliv: if that's the case, you will have to use (hd0,7) instead of (hd1,7)
[05:06] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, on the desktop, no... I was able to use the GUI just fine, on the server side I've been reading some sites
[05:07] <giuseppe_> ragazzi ho una domanda ma i driver open ati sono uguali a i driver radeon?
[05:07] <soundray> !it | giuseppe_
[05:07] <ubotu> giuseppe_: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[05:07] <agliv> soundray: then I'll have to boot again and liveCD back here again... and again...
[05:07] <SnCln1> SpaceBass: are you saying you authenticated a linux server to AD not a desktop?
[05:07] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, yes...linux to AD running on a 2003 DC
[05:07] <giuseppe_> sorry i wrong channel
[05:07] <agliv> can I change to (hd0,7) from inside grub?
[05:07] <soundray> agliv: your "radical" solution might be just as much work or more.
[05:08] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, you sound doubtful that it works :)
[05:08] <riaal_> whats the most up to date msn client?
[05:08] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, I do it with Linux and OS X all the time....but I'm moving to OD and away from AD now :)
[05:08] <agliv> soundray can I change to (hd0,7) from inside grub?
[05:08] <jussi01> riaal, amsn
[05:08] <SnCln1> SpaceBass: The reason I'm doing all this is as a potential replacement for administrative staff where a fast computer would be nice but windows just isn't cutting it.  Infact, these users are less adept...so inevitably they end up with spyware and viruses..that's why I'm considering Linux
[05:08] <mksds> hey, i'm connect to IRC trogh  telnet :)
[05:08] <soundray> agliv: yes, hit E on the menu entry you want to edit at boot
[05:08] <rysiek|pl> great. envy script installed the ati drivers, and the ati drivers - guess what? - just don't work(tm). anyone surprised?.. when XServer is being started a pretty-coloured, albeit unintelligible, pattern is displayed (by the way, te colours are... changing O_o'). Even Alt+Ctrl+F1 won't work. Ctrl-Alt-Del to gracefully shutdown the machine and I am back in the recovery mode.
[05:09] <riaal_> jussi01, thanks
[05:09] <SnCln1> SpaceBass: OSX, agreed...my fileserver here is a dual G5 xServe. :)
[05:09] <DaveTarmac> I do an 'ifconfig' and get 'lo' - what is this?
[05:09] <DaveTarmac> is this a MadWifi device?
[05:09] <merc> wewt
[05:09] <Scanztz> PLz is there any other way besides easyubuntu that i can get mp3 suppport?
[05:09] <merc> gnome feels weird after using fvwm for so long..
[05:09] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, I think right now thats a great idea...as little as 6 months ago maybe not...but with fistey or edgy then i dont see why not
[05:09] <soundray> DaveTarmac: no, loopback interface. Everybody has it & needs it
[05:09] <jussi01> riaal_, there is a good script once you have installed it for making it look nice - smooth fonts etc - do you want a copy?
[05:09] <DaveTarmac> ok, so i won't down it then - cheers
[05:09] <raul> anyone knows if there is a Beryl irc channel?
[05:09] <agliv> soundray could you give it to me again step by step so I can write this down?
[05:10] <soundray> !beryl | raul
[05:10] <ubotu> raul: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[05:10] <merc> raul: there is, i forget what it is though
[05:10] <Scanztz> dammit
[05:10] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, the only issue I've found is with writing files to CIFS shares....it doesnt seem to write the group correctly and sometimes ONLY the user who wrote the file can modify it
[05:10] <Scanztz> i was goint to type that
[05:10] <riaal_> Jussi01, sure thing. I will get back to you in a sec
[05:10] <SnCln1> SpaceBass: after beryl signed on...but the big thing is Ubuntu...it's seriously changed the face of linux...I've tried it over the years in the past decade but only now do I really see a tangible different and potential viability in the wild.
[05:10] <merc> Scanztz: you check the forums? im sure there's a 'manual' way.
[05:10] <antisystem32> hola
[05:10] <Guerrand> Scanztz: try automatix
[05:10] <raul> soundray: #ubuntu-effects is quit as a grave... nobody is alive in there
[05:11] <soundray> agliv: no, I have full confidence that you can do this yourself. Just read the messages on the screen
[05:11] <antisystem32> sala en espaol por favol
[05:11] <merc> raul: beryl has their own channel iirc.
[05:11] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, I agree...and I was late to come to that realization...been running SuSE and have only accepted Ubuntu in the past few months, but man what a difference

[05:11] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, to get up and running on AD you'll need Kerberos, Samba, Windbind and NTP installed...which I think are all there by default
[05:11] <merc> plenty of bot masters, only one bot :P
[05:11] <antisystem32> no tienes ubuntu-es
[05:11] <raul> merc: u know the server and channel? type please

[05:12] <raul> jussi01: thnks
[05:12] <SnCln1> SpaceBass: sweet.  As for CIFS...is that just when a user accesses a network share and modifies a file?
[05:12] <FlippantBird> Need help! After installing XGL, ubuntu no longer loads the open source ATI driver, will only load MESA. xorg.conf is set for ATI. How do i fix?
[05:12] <jussi01> raul, np's
[05:12] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, yeah....cifs=windows file sharing
[05:12] <soundray> antisystem32: /join #ubuntu-es
[05:13] <SnCln1> SpaceBass: hmm I'll need to run some testing then.  thanks, I'm going to go play...I may check in later!  thanks again.
[05:13] <SpaceBass> SnCln1, good luck
[05:13] <pi_> I can't start my xorg -> trouble with .Xauthority -> I change the permissions to 777 but I find it with 600 and xorg doesn't start
[05:13] <Aladin_> My CPU supports the nx-bit features. Does Ubuntu use it? For all processes?
[05:14] <dyrne> pi_: rm ~/.Xa*
[05:14] <Guerrand> FlippantBiird: reconfigure xserver-xorg and select the right one
[05:14] <pi_> and after?
[05:14] <dyrne> pi_: login
[05:15] <FlippantBird> Guerrand: xorg is set to use ATI, still loads MESA anyway
[05:15] <Toma-> Aladin: no. not by default. you need to recompile with HIGHMEM64 enabled
[05:15] <system_e> Hi. I'm trying to build my own rmp but when i type rpm -ba *.spec i get -ba:unnown option. What should i install?
[05:15] <pi_> nothing
[05:15] <pi_> not solved
[05:15] <agliv> soundray: so it's gemetry then E for edit, correct? and how do I recognize if I need to edit?
[05:15] <Aladin> Toma-:  Does Ubuntu will support it in the future?
[05:16] <Guerrand> FlippantBird: think you will find the ATI driver is failing to load ... not 100% sure with ATI thought
[05:16] <pi_> I've removed and than STARTX, it was recreated
[05:16] <gavallo> hello
[05:16] <TheManiacKY> HELP. I just sooo messed up. I accidently put a file in the /etc/passwd and now Linux thinks the user accounts are stored in this file. And I can't log back in as root. Is there any way at bootup I can force the system not to load the /etc/passwd file or get me to where I can have enough root permissions to remove the file?
[05:16] <FlippantBird> Guerrand: thing is though it worked before i installed XGL
[05:16] <Toma-> Aladin: actually, it looks like the 64bit kernel; does have support for nx bit
[05:17] <sdy> hello
[05:17] <FlippantBird> Guerrand: where can i download the open source driver?
[05:17] <FlippantBird> Guerrand:so i can reinstall it?
[05:17] <soundray> agliv: you need to decide whether you want to check my theory about grub swapping your drives, or whether you want to try (hd0,7) straight away. Which is it?
[05:17] <dyrne> pi_: and you are currently owner of file?
[05:17] <pi_> yes
[05:17] <jussi01> !hi | sdy
[05:17] <ubotu> sdy: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:17] <Zaggynl>  I just tried to tar my www folder. When I try to access my apache server with localhost:port using a browser now, I get a tar file with a random name.
[05:17] <Guerrand> FlippantBird: would suggest using envy to sort it out ... solved my gfx problems nicely
[05:18] <FlippantBird> Guerrand: envy only gave me problems,
[05:18] <csci> Hi, I have a strange problem on a new installed ubuntu box (where ubuntu was installed without problems, before): The CPU-usage is around 90 - 100%, but top shows no processes with a high cpu time, but user% is around 90%. Any ideas of either finding the consuming proecesses or what process eats my cpu-time?
[05:18] <Guerrand> hahaha
[05:19] <Scanztz> !libmad
[05:19] <gavallo> I have a printer Canon but not find drivers for ubuntu.Who can help me??
[05:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about libmad - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:19] <jussi01> gavallo, what model is it?
[05:19] <soundray> gavallo: turboprint.de - or wait for feisty
[05:19] <Guerrand> FlippantBird: will havta ask one of these guys then ... because most of my experience is with the nvidia stuff ... sorry im not very helpful :P
[05:19] <gavallo> Canon Smart Base MPC 400
[05:19] <dyrne> pi_: not sure thats odd
[05:19] <pi_> always cought signal 11
[05:20] <pi_> xinit_ connection to X server lost
[05:21] <Aladin_> If I encrypt my swap-partition, does I lose the suspend-to-disk-feature?
[05:21] <riaal_> just installed amsn whit apt-get for the latest verion I was directed to the page. Downloaded a .package.. what yo do now?
[05:21] <MitchM> riaal_, try going into a terminal and typing "amsn"
[05:21] <gavallo> in turboprint the driver is not present
[05:22] <pi_> pi_: not sure thats odd? what does it means?
[05:22] <kski> is there a way to not type sudo everytime i want to change a setting with ifconfig, besides logging in as root?
[05:22] <riaal_> MitchM, why? how do I install the package?
[05:22] <gavallo> Who can help me??
[05:22] <merc> kski: sudo -s will start a shell as root iirc
[05:22] <MitchM> riaal_, if you used apt-get it is already installed.
[05:22] <pi_> if I launch sudo startx alla works fine
[05:22] <soundray> gavallo: ask Canon for a driver. They won't give you one, but it's good if they hear from customers that they want Linux drivers.
[05:22] <kski> merc: thanks
[05:22] <pi_> all not alla
[05:23] <ThunderM> how can i get in touch with ubuntu's developers ?
[05:23] <merc> kski: np
[05:23] <riaal_> MitchM, it is but for some reason it isn't the latest version
[05:23] <soundray> ThunderM: #ubuntu-devel or report a bug
[05:23] <Discovery> hey i need help everytime i what to shut down or reboo my computer fan speeds up and computer doent reboot anyone can help?
[05:23] <ThunderM> thanks
[05:23] <MitchM> riaal_, then that means that Ubuntu hasn't packaged the latest version for some reason. You'll probably have to compile from source.
[05:23] <riaal_> MitchM, that strange? what Im on 6.10
[05:23] <pi_> :-(
[05:24] <gavallo> ok
[05:24] <Taime1> whats the command to refresh font cache?
[05:24] <GMachine_24> I need the command/instructions for enabling my PCI firewire card as my second network interface (eth1) so I can use hard drives connected to it on my network. Anyone?
[05:24] <jussi01> riaal_, this script will give you the latest version - you just need a version installed
[05:24] <Discovery> hey i need help everytime i what to shut down or reboo my computer fan speeds up and computer doent reboot anyone can help?
[05:24] <MitchM> riaal, do and apt-get update, and then an apt-get upgrade
[05:25] <gavallo> <<in the web is present the driver for my printer canon?
[05:25] <riaal_> jussi01, oh, where do I find the script?
[05:25] <erUSUL> gavallo: linuxprinting.org
[05:25] <riaal_> jussi01, I have downloaded  "amsn-0.96-2.tcl84.x86.package"
[05:25] <jussi01> riaal_, there it is
[05:25] <gavallo> ok, but my printer is not present!!!!
[05:26] <soundray> GMachine_24: I'm either getting you completely wrong, or you are getting something completely wrong ;)
[05:26] <riaal_> jussi01, resend
[05:26] <soundray> gavallo: take it back to the store and ask for a printer with Linux support (hint: HP)
[05:27] <Discovery> is there anyone who can help me?
[05:27] <riaal_> jussi01, strange
[05:27] <jussi01> riaal_, there you are - you need to have a veriion installed beforhand, doesnt matter which one
[05:27] <soundray> gavallo: it's also worth asking the turboprint people whether they are planning to support your model. If they are, they might just give you a prerelease version for testing.
[05:27] <riaal_> jussi01, it won't transfer for some reason?
[05:28] <soundray> Discovery: you may have to use a boot option, like pci=noacpi
[05:28] <gavallo> ok
[05:28] <soundray> I'm unlucky that way it seems
[05:28] <riaal_> what do I do whit a .package file??
[05:28] <MagicBox> can anyone help me
[05:29] <soundray> riaal_: why do you need the latest version?
[05:29] <soundray> MagicBox: that depends entirely on your problem
[05:29] <riaal_> soundray, why not? the one I have is like 1year old
[05:29] <d0dge> Can anyone help me with this; I'm trying to install Gaim-text rpm but I get this error make: *** [binary-arch]  Error 1
[05:29] <jussi01> riaal_, give me your email addu
[05:29] <soundray> riaal_: so what? If it works, it works.
[05:30] <riaal_> soundray, why do they make updates then? =S
[05:30] <jussi01> riaal_, I will email it to you
[05:30] <soundray> !timetable > riaal_
[05:30] <dizzle> Is there anyone here who would be able to help me get my wirelees card working?  I have ndsiwrapper installed and I have installed the correct .inf file, but the wlan is not showing up in ifconfig.
[05:30] <riaal_> cheers jussi01

[05:31] <soundray> MagicBox: were you here with Discovery as your nick earlier?
[05:31] <riaal_> jussi01, oh, give me a sec
[05:31] <MagicBox> yes
[05:32] <jussi01> :D
[05:32] <soundray> MagicBox: too bad, you logged out just as I sent my reply.
[05:32] <MagicBox> soundray :but that was owned by someone else so i changes i got a warning
[05:32] <MagicBox> so what u say?
[05:32] <soundray> MagicBox: you may have to use a boot option, like pci=noacpi
[05:32] <psusi> can someone do me a favor and do a quick test of network connectivity for me?
[05:33] <soundray> !bootoptions > MagicBox, read the pm from ubotu
[05:33] <MagicBox> soundray: how
[05:33] <riaal> jussi01, see the pm now?
[05:34] <psusi> could someone try to telnet to sourceforge.net on port 25 and let me know if the connection is accepted or not?
[05:34] <Arkaitz> Hey
[05:34] <Arkaitz> does anyone know why I getthis screen when I reboot or shut down my computer? The computer crashes http://www.visualparade.net/upload/uploads/12236394945e84fddb893a.gif

[05:36] <eetfunk> does anyone know how to fix the "svn: warning: cannot set LC_CTYPE locale" warning under Ubuntu?  I found instructions about installing the english language pack but it didnt help.  ALthough the problem happens with svn, it seems directly related to Ubuntu from what I read.
[05:37] <Nutubuntu> Hello all - is today's Firefox update the same as yesterday's, or have there really been two?
[05:37] <heanol> i have fglrx installed with DRI working, but when i start Xgl instead DRI seems to be gone and everything is so slow
[05:38] <soundray> Nutubuntu: questions like that can usually be answered by looking at /usr/share/doc/packagename/changelog.Debian.gz

[05:39] <K3nto> can you install ubuntu from any resource other than a cd
[05:39] <Toma-> Arkaitz: try some different values in the vga= option in your grub options
[05:39] <soundray> !install | K3nto

[05:39] <K3nto> the laptop i am installing it on(not mint) doesnt seem to want to take it
[05:39] <Arkaitz> Toma- how can I solve it, you know it?
[05:40] <Toma-> Arkaitz: i can give you hints, not a real rock solid solution
[05:40] <Arkaitz> hits would be fine
[05:40] <sivik_> finally
[05:40] <soundray> Arkaitz: first, you can answer the questions that are asked in response to your problem description

[05:42] <Nutubuntu> t/y soundray - what am I looking for? Datestamp? /usr/share/doc/firefox/changelog.Debian.gz is datestamped several days ago ... but I know for sure I downloaded, installed, and restarted (and some of my extensions were outdated and got shut down) ... yesterday. Why the difference in dates? Or am I looking at the wrong thing?

[05:43] <DaveTarmac> i have follow instructions to the letter from http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/FirstTimeHowTo and no error have been kicked up. I have installed madwifi, connected to the network, put in my wep key, but now when I try to DHCP an address - it fails
[05:43] <soundray> Nutubuntu: look at the content of that file
[05:43] <DaveTarmac> Does anyone have any ideas?

[05:55] <bluffer_> so  what could be the best option without having to ahift delete the vhd and create a new one ? is the rescue  operation from alternate install cd ok ?
[05:55] <K3nto> oh when i boot from the live cd to ubuntu, i doublw click the install icon on the desktop and nothing happens for a while. then it freezes
[05:55] <K3nto> its an old pc and i read about the acpi thing
[05:55] <soundray> K3nto: how much memory do you have?
[05:55] <bluffer_> especially this command type $ grub-install /dev/hdaX where X is your Ubuntu root install.
[05:55] <K3nto> 128 i think
[05:56] <soundray> K3nto: get at least 128MB extra, then try again. Alternatively, install xubuntu.
[05:56] <bluffer_> when i first installed i made two partitions hda1 = swap hda2 = ext2 so i use /dev/hda2 ok ?
[05:57] <K3nto> soundray, ok thanks
[05:57] <K3nto> !xubuntu
[05:57] <ubotu> xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels

[05:57] <erchache> ok ok
[05:58] <bluffer_> ok ill be back later
[06:00] <spotted> Can anyone pls pls pls help me?
[06:00] <spotted> :\
[06:00] <soundray> spotted: not unless you say what the problem is
[06:00] <spotted> Can anyone help me with my MacBook Pro 15" 2,33 GHz? I'm having these issues: 1) I cannot select any entry once grub starts, lucky the default entry starts automatically hence it boots the kernel; 2) I have the same issue very often when I want to boot up from the Ubuntu Live cd: I cannot select any entry on the first screen when it boots up; 3) with edgy, not with feisty, if I switch to another teterminal I get a black screen, lucky whether

[06:01] <soundray> spotted: don't do this please
[06:01] <soundray> spotted: ask one question at a time
[06:01] <spotted> OK, let's try to fix the first one, which is the most boring
[06:02] <soundray> spotted: have you installed refit?
[06:02] <spotted> yes
[06:02] <spotted> refit loads grub and grub loads the kernel set as default in menu.lst
[06:02] <hanexar> I'm having problems to automount ipod. I can mount it manually, but I'd like to just pop-up on my desktop like my usb drives do. I'm using edgy with a 2nd gen nano
[06:02] <spotted> but i cannot select any entry inside it when it pops up
[06:03] <kazim51> somebody please help me with error 17
[06:03] <soundray> spotted: I don't know if refit has any configuration settings, but since it's supposed to emulate PC BIOS functions, it should have something like "Legacy mode for USB human interface devices"

[06:04] <psusi> tesuki_: bit tornado
[06:04] <h4rdc0r3_> hallo

[06:06] <psusi> bittornado: clean, simple, light weight, and not attempting to be a file sharing nework knock off
[06:06] <hanexar> I'm using bit tornado when I only have single torrent to download... azureus for multiple
[06:07] <Zaggynl> wine utorrent ftw
[06:07] <ignus> soundray: is it actually possible to do or am i wasting my time?
[06:08] <psusi> why at one point when I messed up my system, I actually accessed the ubuntu web site from lynx, the old command line web browser, and it downloaded the livecd iso via the command line bit torrent client and I burned it and used it to repair my xwindows
[06:08] <abhinay> hey, Which engine is required for Yattacier 3 gtk theme [ http://art.gnome.org/themes/gtk2/598 ]  ??
[06:08] <michaelpo> i've downloaded bittorrent and gui... it does not show up in the menu.. how do i find it?
[06:08] <soundray> ignus: you need to decide on a player, then install a firefox plugin for that player. E.g. totem-xine plus totem-mozilla
[06:08] <ignus> ah ok
[06:08] <psusi> michaelpo: you don't run it directly, it opens when you open a .torrent file
[06:09] <michaelpo> oh... like that? different from win
[06:09] <soundray> kazim51: is this a big hard disk?
[06:09] <ignus> soundray: whats the firefox plugin for totem called?
[06:09] <erchache> solved!
[06:09] <psusi> michaelpo: that's how it works on windows too
[06:09] <soundray> ignus: totem-mozilla
[06:09] <erchache> i delete trusted.gpg and runs
[06:09] <erchache> perhaps is corrupt
[06:10] <michaelpo> psusi: thanks...
[06:10] <michaelpo> i try it now....
[06:10] <hanexar> Anyone know why I need to manually mount my ipod each time? I'd like it to automount like my other usb drive. My GF is not going to type any command line to make it work, she'll go directly to windows instead :/
[06:10] <dyrne> ignus: or mozilla-mplayer :)
[06:10] <Toma-> hanexar: there should be a udev entry for your ipod to get mounted each time
[06:11] <alecjw> hanexar, gnome should automaticlly mount removable media when it is insterted
[06:11] <hanexar> alecjw: I know, but it doesn't do it
[06:11] <hanexar> toma-: where would I found this udev entry?
[06:11] <psusi> did you check the box to enable that in the gnome removable media settings dialog?
[06:12] <alecjw> hanexar, try changing your preferences ibn system>preferences>removable media

[06:15] <TheVault> Got a question. Is there any software for linux that allows others to control your computer if you have trouble?
[06:16] <someothernick> michaelpo, the the torrent should be there
[06:16] <tsoler> sudo tar xvfz xampp-linux-1.6.tar.gz -C opt
[06:16] <tsoler> doesnt work
[06:16] <michaelpo> someothernick: yes... but it open with democracyplayer... where is the bittorent?
[06:16] <soundray> Thanks Mez
[06:16] <someothernick> michaelpo, which client are u using?

[06:17] <riaal> jussi01,  the script did wonders, thanks again mate
[06:17] <psusi> hrm.... I could have sworn there was a dontwork factoid in this bot
[06:17] <merc> TheVault: you mean, you want someone else 'controlling your desktop' stuff?
[06:17] <tumbl3r> TheVault: look into giving the person helping a user account and just use something like VNC over SSH
[06:17] <michaelpo> someothernick: i've just installed bittorrent... but when i open the torrent file... it uses the democracyplayer....
[06:17] <tsoler> i think i need a maual for tar commands
[06:17] <soundray> psusi: it's called doesntwork
[06:17] <slavik2> is it possible to resize a partition (extend it in the back) without formatting it?
[06:18] <merc> heh, vault stuck around a long time.
[06:18] <tsoler> !tar

[06:18] <hanexar> alecjw: any other idea to get my ipod to automount?
[06:18] <slavik2> soundray: saw the answer, thanks
[06:18] <slavik2> couldn't find the answer :P
[06:18] <someothernick> michaelpo, right click torrent and open with bittorrent
[06:18] <kazim51> i m stuck... my system wont boot now :(
[06:18] <psusi> slavik2: yes, depends on the filesystem, but generally yes, gparted can do that
[06:18] <soundray> kazim51: how big is your hard disk?
[06:19] <alecjw> hanexar, in nautilus (the file browseR), your ipod should show up. double clikc on it. i know its not particuarly auto though......
[06:20] <michaelpo> someothernick: yeah... it works... how do i associate the torrent file with bittorrent instead of democracyplayer?
[06:20] <leafw> last fglrx update broke 3D acceleration. wtf?

[06:20] <someothernick> michaelpo, right click properties - "open with"
[06:21] <dyrne> michaelpo: in file manager it is similar to windows in that you can right click and select the app to open with i believe. but not too fam with gnome
[06:21] <riaal> will ubuntu teams "fuck up" the system like teams in windows?
[06:21] <K3nto> are applications that use wine supposed to be installed with root?
[06:21] <michaelpo> someothernick: how do i associate it permanently instead of right clicking all the time? just double click?
[06:21] <soundray> K3nto: no
[06:21] <hanexar> alecjw: sadly, it doesn't... I really need to mount it with mount command
[06:22] <michaelpo> are viruses executable when we use wine?

[06:22] <eMaX> hi
[06:22] <soundray> K3nto: you don't have to
[06:22] <eMaX> how can I default to a console based login on startup?
[06:23] <cyris> eMaX: change your init level to 3
[06:23] <someothernick> michaelpo, if you do what i said before it will be accociated with bittorrent
[06:23] <soundray> eMaX: 'sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove'
[06:23] <K3nto> soundray: then what do i do? i assume im getting these errors becausre i installed it a root
[06:23] <dxdemetriou> how can I recompile my whole installed os to other architecture?
[06:23] <soundray> cyris: does that apply to edgy, too?
[06:24] <cyris> soundray: no sure man
[06:24] <michaelpo> someothernick: i did what u said... it is still associated with democracyplayer when i double click
[06:24] <cyris> soundray: not sure man
[06:24] <erUSUL> dxdemetriou: you can't
[06:24] <cyris> anyone with any ideas on my slapd issues ? http://rafb.net/p/4ehoAK15.html
[06:24] <soundray> dxdemetriou: you have to reinstall. To save your package list, use 'dpkg --get-selections' and 'dpkg --set-selections' on the newly installed system.
[06:24] <someothernick> michaelpo, right click ,properties ,open with, tick bittorrent

[06:25] <dxdemetriou> I mean to use the apt-build or something to compile everything from i386 to athlon-xp
[06:25] <dyrne> dxdemetriou: i usually just need a simle list of packages in easy to pipe stdout so i do:  cat /var/lib/dpkg/status| grep Package:| sed 's/Package: //' >packages.txt   or something
[06:25] <michaelpo> someothernick: how do i tick bittorent?
[06:25] <michaelpo> i cant
[06:25] <someothernick> :/
[06:26] <Lunar_Lamp> j #apache
[06:26] <soundray> !clone | dxdemetriou, dyrne, why not
[06:26] <ubotu> dxdemetriou, dyrne, why not: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type "dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages", move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type "sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade"
[06:26] <someothernick> michaelpo, right click ,properties ,open with, add , find bittorrent ,tick bittorrent
[06:26] <drewzf> I've installed msttcorefonts, renewed my font cache, restarted gdm... And still my fonts don't show up in steam

[06:27] <michaelpo> someothernick: thanks...
[06:27] <riaal> Banshee or Amarok ?
[06:27] <soundray> dxdemetriou: for compiling, you would need the sources. Have you installed your present system from source packages with apt-build?
[06:27] <dyrne> soundray: that is a bit easier :)
[06:28] <tsoler> guys im trying to install xampp. I give sudo tar xvfz xampp-linux-1.6.tar.gz -C opt. But it semms i can not make it . WHY?
[06:28] <dxdemetriou> soundray, its with apt-get. I tried to use the apt-build world with all packages I can use, but it compile them as 386

[06:33] <soundray> mallox READ the private message you got from ubotu
[06:33] <soundray> dxdemetriou: not sure, but should it not say something like k7?
[06:34] <K3nto> if i installed a progam using wine  when i was root, how do i switch it over to the regualr user
[06:34] <dxdemetriou> soundray, It is configure from apt with this way. I'll try
[06:34] <cyris> is their anything similar to fedoras chkconfig for ubuntu dapper ?
[06:34] <mallox> soundray : hehe :)) thanx ;) & sorry
[06:34] <dyrne> cyris: what does ckhconfig do?
[06:35] <soundray> K3nto: copy it from the installed directory to your home (with sudo) and change the ownership to your username (also with sudo)

[06:38] <soundray> K3nto: if you can't find it, do a 'sudo updatedb' and 'locate wow.exe' (replace wow.exe with a more likely name)
[06:39] <salty> look under ".wine" directory
[06:39] <K3nto> i found a shortcut to it in "/root/Desktop"
[06:39] <K3nto> i dont have a .wine directory though
[06:39] <salty> then it will be in /root/.wine
[06:39] <soundray> K3nto: now it's detective work. Have you tried ls /root/.wine/ ?
[06:39] <K3nto> i only have root/desktop
[06:39] <K3nto> no .wine folder there
[06:40] <soundray> K3nto: Have you TRIED ls /root/.wine/ ?
[06:40] <salty> .wine is a hidden file
[06:40] <slavik2> soundray: any ideas?
[06:40] <K3nto> oh okay i see it
[06:40] <K3nto> just had to enable hidden files

[06:43] <st3ph> Greets all...I'm having a small issue with gnome (and xcfe). When I boot, I only get the desktop and a Thunar window open to my Home directory. There is no panel to speak of, upper or lower.
[06:43] <wasabi_> I'd like it to be at least feature comparable with Windows L2TP server stuff. =/

[06:44] <riaal> easyest way to check if my soundcard is installed?

[06:45] <K3nto> soundray: it said "dosdevices  drive_c  system.reg  userdef.reg  user.reg"

[07:12] <Lamek7891> before I dl 6.10 --> can I install it to a clean USB HDD so that I don't have to mess around with my internal? ..will it be able to boot? will it be really slow?
[07:12] <slavik> EDGY stops booting after printing "drivers/usb/input/hid-core.c: v2.6:USB HID core driver"; google doesn't turn up any solutions :(
[07:12] <K3nto> salty: yeah i can cut, copy, delete rename
[07:12] <Ferret> !nvidia > KR-data
[07:12] <K3nto> so now i have to delete the old one
[07:12] <salty> ok then you're set
[07:13] <Flannel> Lamek7891: If your BIOS can boot to USB, you'll be able to boot as normal, otherwise you'll need a boot disk
[07:13] <K3nto> i have to be root to delete it right?

[07:13] <K3nto> !delete

[07:13] <Lamek7891> thanks, I was looking through those pages but I couldn't find anything specific for externals
[07:13] <ant30> I have cloned a partition to another partition with the same number sectors. Now, I have 2 partitions with the same vol_id any answer?
[07:14] <Lamek7891> do you think that it will it run noticeably slower?
[07:14] <ant30> I have used a dd method

[07:14] <Lamek7891> done and done...thanks
[07:15] <K3nto> salty: sudo rm -rfv /root/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/World of Warcraft
[07:15] <salty> Lamek7891> yes
[07:15] <K3nto> didnt do anything
[07:15] <salty> K3nto>yes
[07:15] <Flannel> Lamek7891: that's how to make a bootdisk, if your bIOS can't boot to USB.  Otherwise, it's identical to a regular install
[07:15] <NewNeo> america is blind
[07:15] <slavik> K3nto: backslash before every space
[07:15] <ant30> Hi SinClaIrR
[07:16] <SinClaIrR> hi ant30
[07:16] <Lamek7891> yeah...it can boot from USB, I guess I'll try that
[07:16] <K3nto> salty: what?

[07:16] <ant30> ext3
[07:16] <rogue780> does anyone know how to setup a mail and name server
[07:16] <etcadmin> can anyone help me figure out why my 6.10 server is not responding to apache and ssh requests?
[07:16] <etcadmin> http://photo.educ.psu.edu/
[07:16] <Flannel> etcadmin: did you install apache and ssh-server?
[07:16] <salty> K3nto> you have to have a back lash for every space in world of warcraft
[07:17] <st3ph> chavo, I will delete the .gtk files and login again. Thanks much for your assistance.
[07:17] <etcadmin> yes
[07:17] <etcadmin> it works half the time
[07:17] <Ferret> ant30: use tune2fs -U.  see the man page.  You'll need the uuidgen utility
[07:17] <salty> and program files
[07:17] <K3nto> sudo rm -rfv /root/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/World\of\Warcraft
[07:17] <etcadmin> top shows nothing goinf on
[07:17] <rogue780> does anyone know how to setup a mail and name server
[07:17] <etcadmin> now it works
[07:17] <Flannel> etcadmin: seems to be working currently.  Could it be a routing issue?
[07:17] <K3nto> salty: it that it? ^^
[07:17] <ant30> ok, thanks Ferret
[07:17] <salty> sudo rm -rfv /root/.wine/drive_c/Program\Files/World\of\Warcraft
[07:17] <_Andrew> Flannel, I know you were being serious with your install question but that was pretty funny lol
[07:17] <KR-data> ok I've installed the nvida-driver but I can't load the kernel module, what do I do?
[07:17] <Ferret> ant30: By the way, for copying files in the future, I recommend the excellent program known as 'cp'. :)
[07:18] <Flannel> _Andrew: it happens ;)
[07:18] <etcadmin> the server was on the same switch before, I got more of the 404 errors, I moved it to another switch and it works better
[07:18] <etcadmin> but this still happens
[07:18] <Ferret> KR-data: Why can't you?
[07:18] <K3nto> salty: didnt delete it
[07:19] <Flannel> etcadmin: next time it happens, see if you can still get there locally.  If so, it's a routing issue
[07:19] <ant30> well, dd is fast than cp
[07:19] <etcadmin> i am local to it
[07:19] <salty> sudo rm -rfv /root/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/World\ of\ Warcraft

[07:20] <KR-data> Ferret: it says FATAL: Error running install command for nvidia, when I run modprobe nvidia
[07:20] <etcadmin> even when I have apache, ssh, ftp errors
[07:20] <arod> when I start epiphany it's always working offline. is there some workaround?
[07:20] <Flannel> etcadmin: you sure it's it when you're pinging? and not some other machine?

[07:21] <etcadmin> 146.186.208.252
[07:21] <K3nto> Salty: its working
[07:21] <kquamme> hello fellers
[07:21] <hengst> hi
 ok... did you notice that i put a 'v' in the options of that command?
[07:22] <etcadmin> It's very hard to troubleshoot not knowing when it's going to cut out
[07:22] <ant30> Ferret, thanks, its have fun. --> tune2fs partition -U random
[07:22] <pihus> is there a way to change the update interval time of laptop's battery power information?
[07:23] <K3nto> salty: i did, what for?
[07:23] <Ferret> KR-data: Looks like a fairly common issue on the forums... can you please try this?: sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r` nvidia-glx
[07:23] <salty> that is what printed the actions in the terminal... that way you know what is happening
[07:23] <hengst> pihus: i think you should check the service
[07:23] <pihus> say what?
[07:23] <Ferret> KR-data: If that doesn't work then check dmesg to see if you can find more info about the error
[07:24] <kquamme> anyone here dual-booting OSX and Ubuntu?
[07:24] <KR-data> Ferret I'll try that, thanks
[07:24] <K3nto> i see
[07:24] <unimatrix9> i wish it was me, dual-booting OSX and UBuntu/....LOL
[07:25] <hengst> pihus: apmd / this deamon you should be able to tune the interval.

[07:28] <Askar> I have checkedout a directory and changed the file inside, how do I upload it again?
[07:28] <HiDensity> how do I boot from a live cd but change my xconf to specify a video driver?

[07:28] <kquamme> kimmern: searching where is disabled? the webpage?
[07:28] <K3nto> i wonder why large corporations that make games dont support linux
[07:28] <unimatrix9> latty ; here you can read the how to, if you are still around
[07:28] <pihus> yes but I'd like it to update the graphcis faster
[07:28] <K3nto> if the users can do it so easily, they should have no problem
[07:28] <Latty> unimatrix9: I'm around.
[07:28] <pihus> is it possible?
[07:28] <Latty> Do link me.
[07:29] <kquamme> HiDensity: is the driver on the livecd
[07:29] <Askar> do you know jrib?

[07:29] <r00tintheb0x> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OIOE0MR99oM
[07:29] <sebi__k> does someone have second life working?
[07:29] <HiDensity> yes...i need to use the vesa driver
[07:29] <finalbeta> K3nto: because that would mean they need to support a product on a platform that doesn't like them. Sound, graphics, it's no good in linux.
[07:29] <hengst> K3nto: critical mass
[07:29] <jrib> Askar: svn ci  read: http://svnbook.red-bean.com/
[07:29] <unimatrix9> i have second life working yes
[07:29] <kimmern> kquamme: i got the serching working..but they didnt have it..
[07:30] <Latty> unimatrix9: I'm running the free vmware
[07:30] <kimmern> only up to tcl8.4...
[07:30] <K3nto> finalbeta: really? why not?
[07:30] <sebi__k> a cant connect to login server, curl cant resolve the ulr
[07:30] <unimatrix9> freevmware ? you mean vmplayer?
[07:30] <kquamme> HiDensity: you should be able to get into shell passing a boot command and then change it
[07:30] <HiDensity> kquamme: how do I do that?
[07:30] <Askar> jrib: is merge what I am looking for maybe?
[07:30] <Latty> yeah, I wasn't stating a package name.
[07:30] <kquamme> kimmern:hmm, that sucks
[07:31] <hengst> VMserver is available to for Linux for free!!!
[07:31] <K3nto> maybe thats what linux needs, a huge multimedia update
[07:31] <kquamme> HiDensity: lemme check it out, brb
[07:31] <Latty> oh, is it?
[07:31] <finalbeta> K3nto: like hengst said, critical mass. Not enough people using it means no good drivers, no good drivers = waste of writing games for it. no games, no drivers mean no people and it loops that way
[07:31] <Latty> unimatrix9: I got it to show in the Computer Management in XP, but no way to create a partition.
[07:31] <jrib> Askar: no, if you just want to update the file you would use 'ci' which is an abbreviation for 'commit'
[07:31] <K3nto> finalbeta: so all we have to do is recruit
[07:31] <hengst> finalbeta: just like that
[07:32] <finalbeta> K3nto: yeah
[07:32] <unimatrix9> latty , i presume you run out of space on the virtual drive?
[07:32] <hengst> I started this year with no longer supporting Windows.
[07:32] <sebi__k> because i just subscribed and didn't login, i cant visit the support forum. so i wonder why it doesnt connect
[07:32] <Latty> unimatrix9: Yeah, but Forget it, I had to initialize the disc. I have it working now
[07:32] <unimatrix9> great
[07:32] <hengst> 5 families no run Linux Ubuntu and they love it.
[07:33] <KarlosII> ubuntu is not detecting my linux on the usb ports, however dmsg shows the usb ports are detected, and lsusb shows nothing connected
[07:33] <unimatrix9> sebi_k , sometimes the server of second life are really full...
[07:33] <Lazergunz> slavik: got it all working :)
[07:33] <kquamme> HiDensity: you might have to edit the ISO image and use ur xorg.conf and reburn it
[07:33] <unimatrix9> and you cant connect for a while, you have to wait a bit...if thats the problem
[07:34] <kquamme> KarlosII: wtf do u mean? what doesn't it detect?
[07:34] <salty> i don't have any issuses about linux and multimedia....except video conferencing

[07:34] <globe> I get a 'failed to load module "nvidia"' when I attempt to start x server after dist-upgrade.  Anybody know how I can fix this?
[07:34] <thianpa> Can anyone tell me a good webserver that has all php,mysql support like XAMMP/Phpdev in windows ?
[07:35] <shatrat> globe, you need to reinstall your nvidia driver
[07:35] <K3nto> !nvidia
[07:35] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:35] <hengst> nvidia is usually well supported.
[07:35] <soundray> K3nto: has it worked?
[07:35] <globe> shatrat: any idea why a dist upgrade killed it?
[07:35] <K3nto> its updating
[07:35] <K3nto> so i do believe it is working
[07:35] <K3nto> TY
[07:35] <kquamme> HiDensity: have u done that b4/do u want to go that route?
[07:35] <soundray> K3nto: well done
[07:35] <pihus> what is DPMS?
[07:35] <K3nto> i applaud you
[07:35] <shatrat> hengst, globe, any time you change kernel version or driver version the kernel module interface between them needs to be reinstalled or even custom compiled if an appropriate kernel module isnt in the repos
[07:36] <globe> shatrat: makes sense....I wish it'd just failsafe instead of breaking X on me.... ;-)
[07:36] <unimatrix9> sebi_k , that means that the database is offline , again... i guess
[07:36] <unimatrix9> its beta you know...
[07:36] <soundray> pihus: display power management system
[07:36] <upd> what port use apt?
[07:37] <soundray> upd: http or ftp ports
[07:37] <upd> ok
[07:37] <upd> :)
[07:37] <hengst> shatrat: why is that?
[07:37] <shatrat> globe, you could change the driver in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf to "nv" and youd have a simple graphical interface
[07:38] <sebi__k> yes i know, are there any patches? why is it working on your pc
[07:38] <ReadyF> hi everyone !
[07:38] <globe> shatrat: yea, thats what im doing so I can dl the driver...im stuck in tty at the moment
[07:38] <Arkaitz> how do I run a .sh file?
[07:38] <shatrat> hengst, well, the kernel module from "linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17blahblah" is specific to both kernel version and driver version, if you have a different kernel version or a different driver version there is a mismatch in that interface module
[07:39] <shatrat> globe, did you install the driver using the nvidia.com installer? if so it isnt hard to fix this from command line
[07:39] <globe> shatrat: yes...its the nvidia binary for opengl support

[07:40] <funpop> which audio-file player can you guys recommend beside amarok ?

[07:48] <hengst> KarlosII: you see, something is wrong with the printer, maybe it is just the cable.
[07:49] <AlexC_> stealth: don't troll =)
[07:49] <soundray> KarlosII: your computer-side hardware is okay then

[07:51] <andrius_> helo
[07:51] <freezey> stealth: if you run trans codega
[07:51] <AlexC_> stealth: you can, but they are not guaranteed to work
[07:51] <shatrat> stealth, you should check the appdb.winehq.org site first to see if they will work
[07:51] <freezey> and they work together well
[07:51] <asdf25> slv: though you could get rid of them later too if disk space is an issue or whatever
[07:51] <Rafase> I need help with my web cam

[07:54] <DARKGuy> !grub
[07:54] <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

When I search with thunderbirds address book I get no results, but with no ssl I get results :S. any ideas im kinda stuck ?

[07:56] <AlexC_> soundray: I know how to dualboot "normally" but this is different, they are on seperate hard drives.
[07:56] <DARKGuy> AlexC_, actually, root (hd0,0) for primary master, root (hd1,0) for primary slave, and such
[07:56] <KarlosII> so the computer is detecting something getting plugged in

[07:56] <soundray> wheels3572: assuming it's on your desktop, you would do 'cd /usr/share ; sudo tar zxf $HOME/Desktop/file.tar.gz' (but you don't *really* want this)
[07:56] <DARKGuy> oh
[07:56] <andrius_> ar ne
[07:56] <dyrne> Daneo: all else fails you could use vlc as a player id say.
[07:56] <con-man> pihus: in general?
[07:56] <andrius_> ???
[07:56] <DARKGuy> AlexC_, then I'm clueless :(

[07:57] <andrius_> heiii u tethers?

[07:57] <wardy> how do i put this window onto the other desktop?? (1 of 4)
[07:57] <pihus> well I'm useing laptop, so switching isn't that easy

[08:14] <SmartLeet> hi
[08:14] <con-man> KarlosII: 1 year in Beta, two years in development, or at least thats how long MSDN has had it available to subscribers
[08:14] <SmartLeet> I've a problem with pkg-config
[08:14] <riaal> how to activate univers arcive? =S
[08:14] <wheels3572> soundray, ok gotcha
[08:14] <DARKGuy> Like
[08:14] <DARKGuy> we don't care how much VIsta has been in development
[08:14] <DARKGuy> but maybe the people in #ubuntu-offtopic do? :P
[08:14] <KarlosII> con-man: So you know why Dell has not scored any points on that subject with me :)
[08:15] <SmartLeet> I've just installed gtk-1.2.dev package and when I tape: $pkg-config gtk+-1.2
[08:15] <ComputerHermit> dude your gett'n a DELL and I smoke pot with all my money YEAAAA
[08:15] <SmartLeet> it says that package isn't found :/
[08:15] <con-man> KarlosII: Dell doesnt make drivers.
[08:15] <rpc> is it possible to change default permissions for a file that i upload to an ftp?
[08:15] <KarlosII> Dell is supposedly talking to Ubuntu Devs about cooperation though
[08:15] <SmartLeet> rpc chmod ?
[08:15] <gotgenes> Can netselect-apt determine Ubuntu mirrors, too?
[08:15] <soundray> wardy: I wouldn't bother upgrading breezy. A fresh edgy install is quicker. Backup your /home and your /etc as a minimum (and possibly /var if you have databases)
[08:15] <rpc> SmartLeet that works but i need to do that manually after each uploaded file, not sure why it happens
[08:15] <KarlosII> con-man: oh...yes the contracted manufacturers
[08:16] <con-man> KarlosII: yup, and we cant force them to make drivers any faster
[08:16] <SmartLeet> rpc ah, I don't know so, sorry :/
[08:16] <rpc> SmartLeet i mean when i upload i want them to have 755 at once without need of changing that manually
[08:16] <blizzkid> guys, a general question, when my pc boots, it`s set to AZERTY keyboard. How do I change that?

[08:17] <ideogram> is there any alternative video cards for linux than ATI and nvidia?
[08:17] <rkyraccoon55> for some reason ubuntu stopped recognizing my other hard drives

[08:18] <Deztus> then i wanted to get rid of the player due to an installation error
[08:18] <iamtheric> yeah
[08:18] <Deztus> and the server
[08:18] <blizzkid> globe: I know the different kbd layouts, I just want my sys to boot in QWERTY
[08:18] <Deztus> attempted uninstall for both
[08:18] <ideogram> I am sick and tired of fighting with the binary driver install
[08:18] <seb--> apokryphos: thanks
[08:18] <iamtheric> Deztus, it has shared libraries
[08:18] <soundray> ideogram: Intel makes graphics chipset, but they come integrated in boards
[08:18] <ideogram> I have dual monitors and can't get them to work
[08:18] <Deztus> ran into the 'software index broken' error
[08:18] <cyris> when removing a package with apt-get, can i also remove all configuration files that where included with that package? even modified ones?
[08:18] <soundray> *chipsets
[08:18] <robbie_crash> Is there a way to force rhythmbox to not try and look at my ipods?
[08:18] <Askar> how do i create a directory with svn??
[08:19] <globe> blizzkid: yea, im suggesting searching google for DVORAK keyboard layout changes...they are more common
[08:19] <DaveTarmac> I have tried to obtain an address for my network via DHCP, but it keeps popping up this message: 'DHCPDISCOVER on ath0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval XX' (where XX is a number), then 'No DHCPDISCOVER offered - sleeping'
[08:19] <iamtheric> Deztus, well server was not in the repos, it was installed manually
[08:19] <ScottLij> I just downloaded linux-source-2.6.17 via the Synaptic Package Manager, where would it be stored?
[08:19] <DaveTarmac> i have follow instructions to the letter from http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/FirstTimeHowTo and no error have been kicked up. I have installed madwifi, connected to the network, put in my wep key, but now when I try to DHCP an address - it fails
[08:19] <Torrey> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/feisty/herd-5/
[08:19] <SmartLeet> cyris apt-get remove package --purge
[08:19] <iamtheric> Deztus, and you confused it
[08:19] <Deztus> yeah, i installd manually
[08:19] <cyris> SmartLeet cheers
[08:19] <soundray> robbie_crash: have you tried disabling music players in System-Preferences-Removable drives?
[08:19] <Torrey> Bittorrents are running.
[08:19] <SmartLeet> cyris cheers---> ?
[08:19] <Deztus> :(
[08:20] <Deztus> tried some force deleting methods. work 'partially'
[08:20] <mrpoundsign> ok, so evolution is locking up on me.  I removed my .evolution directory, and it's still locking up, and howing my exchange account -- where can I fond this exchange account?
[08:20] <blizzkid> globe, all I find is how to change kbd in X
[08:20] <blizzkid> but in X it`s ok
[08:20] <Deztus> with dpkg and aptitude
[08:20] <SmartLeet> cyris what does "cheers" mean ?
[08:20] <iamtheric> Deztus, you try an apt-get update?
[08:20] <Deztus> yeah
[08:20] <iamtheric> hrmf
[08:20] <soundray> SmartLeet: can you rephrase your question about gtk pls
[08:20] <robbie_crash> soundray: nope but that did it, thanks
[08:20] <rpc> SmartLeet cheers == thanks man
[08:20] <iamtheric> Deztus, try asking in the actuall forum
[08:20] <Deztus> and as it tries to update or reinstall the player it always puts out an error
[08:20] <soundray> SmartLeet: you're not British then ;)
[08:20] <SmartLeet> soundray yes of course so, I installed the devlopement package
[08:21] <lanaz> Hello
[08:21] <rkyraccoon55> anyone know why ubuntu stopped recognizing my other hd's?
[08:21] <globe> blizzkid: (i don't know where, but) there is a conversion file somewhere for it.  I ended up reinstalling once because I couldnt get it figured otu
[08:21] <SmartLeet> soundray and the official doc says: tapes things with: pkg-config --cflags=someflags gtk+-2.0
[08:21] <SmartLeet> but it return: package not found :s
[08:21] <Deztus> brb
[08:21] <SmartLeet> normaly it should return path to devlopment files
[08:22] <aozaki> Sorry I'm new to linux: Does Ubuntu come with a C compiler?
[08:22] <Torrey> aozaki: apt-get install gcc
[08:22] <rolnzyx>  aozaki: sudo apt-get install gcc
[08:22] <mrpoundsign> can anyone tell me where evolution holds the exchange accounts?
[08:22] <Askar> How do I create a folder with svn????
[08:22] <cyris> SmartLeet: thanks
[08:22] <soundray> SmartLeet: try 'dpkg -L packagename' -- does that help?
[08:22] <eirikur> Ubuntu doesn't install it by default.  Synaptic or apt-get.  What's the big devel-deps package, gang?
[08:22] <SmartLeet> cyris lol np :p
[08:23] <robbie_crash> Askar: I might be wrong, but I think svn just downloads to whatever dir you run it from
[08:23] <linxeh> eirikur: build-essential ?
[08:23] <apokryphos> eirikur: build-essential
[08:23] <soundray> !b-e > eirikur
[08:23] <dyrne> mrpoundsign: .something..  :)
[08:23] <mrpoundsign> Askar: svn mkdir <url>/newdir
[08:23] <Torrey> aozaki: rolnzyx is correct, use sudo.  GCC is the Gnu Compiler Collection, which is C and with add-ons, C++ and more.
[08:23] <Askar> mrpoundsign thanks!
[08:23] <mrpoundsign> dyrne: it's not in .evolution.  :)

[08:28] <userund> wardy: you can't upgrade from 5.10 to 6.10 as far as I know.  you have to go from 5.10 to 6.06 and then 6.10.  best to reinstall afresh imo.
[08:29] <KarlosII> wardy: backup your home dir
[08:29] <apokryphos> wardy: please take a look at the FAQ <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions> as linked to in the channel /topic.
[08:29] <wardy> ok ty guys

[08:32] <conreyt> hi all.  I recently upgraded to the latest herd release and everything is great however metacity dosen't seem to be starting by default.  Anyone know where to set this at?
[08:32] <vcordes> !hd
[08:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[08:33] <colbert> What is WINE? I just did sudo apt-get install wine and want to run Quake 2 but I don't know what to do
[08:33] <jesuitcluster1_> i just installed ubuntu 6.10 and now it wont recognize my 2nd and 3rd hard drives. does anyone know why?
[08:33] <cefx> colbert: wine quake2.exe
[08:33] <cefx> man wine
[08:33] <conreyt> colbert: head to http://www.wine.org
[08:34] <conreyt> colbert: alot of good documentation about wine configuration.
[08:34] <sharperguy> conreyt, not sure if this will help, but it might be to do with the x upgrade that they're doing right now, in which case it might be fixed in an update soon
[08:35] <Askar>  svn: '/home/askar/askars/mjaha.txt' is not under version control
[08:35] <Askar> why do i get this error?
[08:35] <conreyt> sharperguy: I had been playing with beryl so it may have been self inflicted.  however, I remember setting this value at one time.
[08:35] <robbie_crash> conreyt: do you still have beryl installed?
[08:36] <docta_v> i'm having a problem with rcs... when i checkout the file it's changing the owner of the file to root
[08:36] <conreyt> sharperguy: to change from beryl to metacity.  When I upgraded, it appears to have reset beryl as my WM however it's not there anymore.  annoying to start metacity at every boot :D
[08:36] <docta_v> even if it was initially checked in as being owned by named
[08:36] <globe> conreyt, what is up with your beryl? im having problems since upgrade too
[08:36] <docta_v> any way that i can fix this?
[08:36] <conreyt> sharperguy: sry short answer is no I uninstalled it.
[08:37] <jesuitcluster1_> can someone help me get this os to recognize my hard drives?

[08:37] <colbert> Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":1.0"
[08:37] <jesuitcluster1_> it sees hda and the cd drives
[08:37] <rkyraccoon55> anyone here know why ubuntu stopped recognizing my other hd's?
[08:37] <vcordes> conreyt, if you whish to use metacity just login to your normal gnome session instead of the beryl one..
[08:37] <jesuitcluster1_> it doesnt see hdb or hdd
[08:38] <riaal> is it really hard to get wow to work under ubuntu?
[08:38] <cefx> riaal: no.  cedega and wine both support WoW, iirc.

[08:39] <vcordes> conreyt, use the other startup method from the wiki next time you set it up. or ask in #beryl for further help on how to change it without a reinstall
[08:39] <conreyt> jesuitcluster1_: no Serial ATA or no?
[08:39] <colbert> winehq.com

[08:40] <conreyt> sharperguy: no see above it works It's just not starting by default.
[08:40] <soho> is there a graphical frontend for traceroute?
[08:40] <sharperguy> conreyt, how about installing beryl again
[08:41] <conreyt> sharperguy: that's not what I'm looking for.
[08:41] <conreyt> 
[08:41] <conreyt> sharperguy: I don't want beryl I just want metacity to start by default again.

[09:13] <lsutiger> thats where I have been...I now do not have a web browser

[09:18] <NET||abuse> hi all,, i have a wee problem heppening,, i have my laptop here with 1.5GB of ram, but i only have 512MB of swap partition,, should i increase that swap up to 1.5GB? i upgraded the ram from 512MB sometime after the initial ubuntu install,, so the parition was never increased to match it's size.
[09:18] <mikejanssen> of which one....17.10 or 17.11
[09:18] <lsutiger> One of the scripts I ran from the ubuntu forum jacked firefox up
[09:18] <dyrne> mikejanssen: but youll have to gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst   and remove those entries if you dont want them to show at boot maybe
[09:18] <soundray> mikejanssen: 'sudo apt-get --purge remove linux-image-2.6.17-10-386'
[09:18] <bronze_0_1> Zaggynl: see the rename command
[09:18] <tonyyarusso> Zaggynl: 'man rename' - it takes regex syntax
[09:18] <McClane> i need some help ?
[09:19] <darkcommon> NET||abuse.. no
[09:19] <NET||abuse> darkcommon, oh? why not?
[09:19] <Zaggynl> I tried 'rename *.JPG *.jpg', but it didn't work
[09:19] <Toaster^> I'm trying to build the latest svn version of Amarok, but when I run "make -f Makefile.cvs" it just complains about missing autoconf, required version >= 2.53...but I have 2.60 :(
[09:19] <darkcommon> NET||abuse change the partition to 512mb, with 2gig you have much, its sufficent
[09:19] <bronze> Zaggynl: it takes 3 args
[09:19] <McClane> my pc don`t want to boot from cd
[09:19] <bronze> pat1 pat2 targets
[09:19] <wardy> darkcommon: seriously wtf? im so sorry but youll have to explain in real basica terms here :P
[09:19] <soundray> mikejanssen: don't mess around with editors -- apt-get will take care of your boot menu
[09:19] <mikejanssen> k
[09:19] <mikejanssen> thx
[09:20] <mikejanssen> im doin the cmd you said

[09:20] <merc> hm, what program should i use to burn an iso? (i dont like xcdroast.)
[09:20] <NET||abuse> darkcommon, one thing i've had happen is that i coppied over 1600 mp3's from my desktop machine, and put into my Music folder, Amarok monitors that directory, so when i start up Amarok, it tries to update the collection with the new files in the library,, so it starts it's task, and quickly the memory graph steps up and up to 98% used by programs, 2% used by cache, and cpu start climbing to 100%
[09:20] <slimdigs> could anyone help me get up and running with easyubuntu?  i've got it installed and tried to look at their support, but no luck
[09:21] <merc> !iso
[09:21] <ubotu> To mount an ISO disc image, type "sudo mount -o loop my.iso <mountpoint>" There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before burning. Burning .iso files: see !burn
[09:21] <lsutiger> but I get an error when I try running one of the first commands
[09:21] <tonyyarusso> !dvd | ryan_
[09:21] <ubotu> ryan_: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[09:21] <rbil> NET||abuse: if u need more swap space, it's easier to just create a swapfile. It'll work in conjunction with your swap partition.
[09:21] <soundray> !burniso > merc, please read the message from ubotu
[09:21] <up365> lsutiger, have you tried here to fix firefox http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/firefox

[09:22] <riaal> what is the difference betwen GTK 1.x and GTK 2.x themes?
[09:22] <McClane> why my dosn`t bot the ubuntu cd ?
[09:22] <NET||abuse> darkcommon, well, i've used my whole remaining 160GB drive for the / partition of ubuntu, so i would have to resize down / partition (/dev/hda2) and resize the swap parition up with that freed space,, is that a big deal to do with live data on my machine?
[09:22] <darkcommon> riaal, the GTK version jaj
[09:22] <ryan_> tonyyarusso,  how do i check which GTK version i have?
[09:22] <comradec> how can I find out the keysym values for mouse clicks and keyboard keys?
[09:22] <darkcommon> NET||abuse, what CPU you have

[09:32] <mEck0> I will buy an Ubuntu-book, and don't know which I should by: http://www.bokus.com/b/9780470038994.html or http://www.bokus.com/b/9780596527204.html?pt=search_result or http://www.adlibris.se/product.aspx?isbn=047010872X&s=1  . I have used Ubuntu (and linux at all) for about a half year maybe, so I am kind of a newbie. But I can use it for everyday use, install apps from source etc. So I'm not completely rookie.
[09:32] <aaaqqq> any oneeeee can heeeeelp meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[09:44] <ryan_> can anyone plz tell me how to connect to a server
[09:44] <erUSUL> conreyt: do not change anything just run metacity and add it to initial programs ? or mark it as reboot in the current session tab
[09:44] <conreyt> MitchM: why thank you.  Seriously however the Exchange plugin for evolution works buy if your keeping alot (over 2000) messages on the server the performance is sub par.
[09:44] <cables> Has anyone had problems witht Ubuntu's crash detection being a bit oversensitive? I constantly get messages that Skype has crashed, even when it's still running, and also that Xchat has crashed almost every time I close it.

[09:45] <riaal> what themes can I use whit edgy? Im getting "wrong file format"?

[09:45] <nilsl> I tried to shut down esd but it didn't help
[09:45] <conreyt> MitchM: *evolution works but
[09:45] <cables> riaal, download them from art.gnome.org or gnome-look.org
[09:45] <riaal> cables, I have, unpacked them and now what?
[09:46] <n-iCe> so... noone know :(
[09:46] <riaal> cables, I downloaded: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=32768
[09:46] <cables> riaal, don't unpack them.
[09:46] <conreyt> crdlb: that worked. thx.
[09:46] <cables> riaal, don't unpack them. The theme manager takes tar.gz's, not unpacked tar.gz's.
[09:46] <Prinsessa> Is there a Matrix Effect for linux console?
[09:47] <riaal> cables, lol, thanks a lot
[09:47] <conreyt> MitchM: the reason is that it talks through the webmail piece of exchange and it's nasty.
[09:47] <darkcommon> wardy, you need: type in a terminal "sudo nano /etc/samba/smb.conf
[09:47] <ootm> could someone tell me how i reconfigure my network config on ubuntu using the text-ui.  its something like sudo dpkg... reconfigure
[09:47] <cables> riaal, you may find that gtk themes don't work. There's an easy solution for that if that's the case on your machine
[09:47] <wardy> darkcommon: ok
[09:47] <MitchM> conreyt, no better solution?
[09:47] <nilsl> This song doesn't stop ... It's really annoying
[09:47] <nilsl> And it's looping
[09:47] <darkcommon> wardy, next, press Ctrl+w and type security
[09:47] <MitchM> :(
[09:47] <darkcommon> type without the quotes!!
[09:47] <conreyt> MitchM, no it's the best to connect to exchange, and it's ugly
[09:47] <zappe> is there any command so i can see what cpu/ram and so on i got in the computer?
[09:48] <riaal> cables, and that is?
[09:48] <darkcommon> wardy, change "security = user" to "security = SHARE" without the quotes ;)
[09:48] <cables> riaal, does everything look plain and ugly after installing a gtk theme? If it does, then I'll tell you how to fix it.
[09:49] <riaal> cables, well, something is obviously wrong
[09:49] <cables> riaal, what's happening?

[09:56] <tcgamer> does anyone know why TS and a Game cannot work in tandem
[09:56] <tcgamer> I think it has to do with ALSA and OSS

[09:57] <cables> tcgamer, TS?
[09:57] <tcgamer> yes..
[09:57] <tcgamer> teamspeak

[09:57] <cables> !alsa-oss | tcgamer
[09:57] <ubotu> tcgamer: alsa-oss: ALSA wrapper for OSS applications. In component universe, is optional.

[09:57] <ante> darkcommon now i need to put some converter in system, can u tell me what i need to put in terminal
[09:57] <cables> tcgamer, sudo aptitude install alsa-oss
[09:57] <tcgamer> what does that do?
[09:57] <cables> tcgamer, then run your games as "aoss <gamename>"
[09:58] <wardy> darkcommon: its still not working, i did all what you said, and nothing happens, windows still sucks big penis...??
[09:58] <cables> tcgamer, that makes the game think it's using oss, but it's really using alsa.
[09:58] <darkcommon> wardy xD
[09:58] <wardy> :P
[09:58] <cables> riaal, yes?
[09:58] <tcgamer> i know teamspeak uses oss
[09:58] <tcgamer> but i think enemy territory uses ALSA
[09:58] <darkcommon> wardy, create a folder in the Top, like this files
[09:58] <JosefK> wardy: you need to run 'sudo smbpasswd your-user-name-here'
[09:58] <hjmills> jrib, brilliant - thanks - do you know how I could get gnome-terminal to automatically tell me after any command that take longer than a minute?
[09:58] <ante> darkcommon now i need to put some converter in system, can u tell me what i need to put in terminal

[09:59] <cables> riaal, I've accepted, but it isn't coming through... can you post on ImageShack?

[09:59] <ubotu> vista is the new operating system by the evil overlords from Redmond. For more information, see http://www.badvista.org
[09:59] <russ> cliebow_: Could you be more specific?
[09:59] <cliebow_> !vista
[09:59] <wardy> josefk: i am so new to linux its unreal, so in basic terms (like 2 year old style) how do i do all that??
[10:00] <riaal> cables, Let me fix my router settings and sent it over, 1 min
[10:00] <tcgamer> i know teamspeak uses oss
[10:00] <cliebow_> well if your firefox is in usr/lib/firefox..
[10:00] <jrib> hjmills: no, I think you would have to script something again
[10:00] <hjmills> jrib, ok - thanks
[10:00] <JosefK> wardy: in a terminal, type 'sudo smbpasswd your-user-name' - sudo will prompt you for your password, then Samba will prompt you to setup a password for the given username
[10:00] <tcgamer> then idk if ET uses ALSA but i can't listen to both at the same time.. :(
[10:00] <cables> tcgamer, so run teamspeak as "aoss teamspeak", after installing the package I told you about.
[10:00] <sparkling> hi, usually when i come home in the evening i check 10-15 sites to watch the news of the day...usually i have to remember all sites or use bookmarks... is it possible to create an html file if i double click on it it open firefox and open all sites in different tabs in the same moment?
[10:00] <darkcommon> on the end write it
[10:00] <darkcommon> [public] 
[10:00] <darkcommon>  comment = Cosas publicas
[10:00] <darkcommon>  path = /home/public
[10:00] <darkcommon>  public = yes
[10:00] <darkcommon>  writable = no
[10:00] <JosefK> wardy: smbpasswd is just a utility
[10:00] <ante> darkcommon ...
[10:00] <asustek> is there anything to take care about while installing ubuntu onto vista operatomg system?
[10:00] <cliebow_> look in plugins
[10:00] <cables> tcgamer, are you reading what I'm saying?
[10:00] <jrib> hjmills: there's probably something already written to do that, but I don't know of one offhand
[10:00] <darkcommon> ante what problem?
[10:00] <tcgamer> so i change my shortcut
[10:01] <ante> darkcommon now i need to put some converter in system, can u tell me what i need to put in terminal
[10:01] <tcgamer> to "aoss file name"
[10:01] <hjmills> sparkling, you can set multiple sites as your homepage and fx will open them in tabs
[10:01] <darkcommon> -.-'
[10:01] <michael_> What compiz mirrors can I use? I tried deb http://xgl.compiz.info/ dapper main but got no response from it

[10:01] <ubotu> tcgamer: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)

[10:01] <cables> tcgamer, yep, thtat's right.
[10:02] <darkcommon> Compiz is out-to-date
[10:03] <jesuitcluster1> can anyone help me get ubuntu to discover my other 2 hard drives? (i have the output of sudo fdisk -l if that helps anyone)
[10:03] <ante> darkcommon can u help me with it or?
[10:03] <finalbeta> darkcommon: N
[10:03] <finalbeta> I mean, ?!?
[10:03] <conreyt> jesuitcluster1: no. however, http://www.linuxplanet.com/linuxplanet/tutorials/4232/1/  or http://www.justlinux.com/nhf/Hardware/Adding_a_Hard_Drive_in_Linux.html should contain as much info as I typed for you.
[10:03] <darkcommon> ante, what problemo!!
[10:03] <tcgamer> cable: is it supposed to install really fast???
[10:03] <jesuitcluster1> thanks
[10:03] <hjmills> sparkling, try running firefox "site1.com|site2.com|site3.com" <- you need the quotes so bash wont interfere
[10:03] <ante> darkcommon about that converter for videos
[10:03] <cables> tcgamer, it's cables, and yes.
[10:03] <tcgamer> darn :)

[10:04] <medication> anyone know anything about a tzupdater for the 64bit 1.5 jdk or is that a mute point?
[10:04] <hjmills> !tab | tcgamer
[10:04] <ubotu> tcgamer: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.
[10:04] <ante> darkcommon so that is everything i need
[10:04] <sparkling> hjmills: i will try...however is not possible to create an html that i double click and it open FF with multiple tabs?
[10:04] <medication> tried searching sun and the ubuntu forums...
[10:04] <medication> no luck
[10:04] <codecaine> how can I change my sistem to run level 3 for boot?
[10:04] <hjmills> sparkling, just make a launcher that runs that command
[10:05] <cables> tcgamer, it might take a little while to install.
[10:06] <medication> anyone have any suggestions about my jdk ubuntu64 question?

[10:20] <alex___> right.... so no possibilities ?
[10:20] <rogue780> the server that is hosting my e-mail and web site went out of business. I want to set up my own server to do this. What do I need to do in order to point godaddy at my server, and have my server provide http and pop3 services?
[10:20] <finalbeta> alex___: you can already get all those chars
[10:20] <finalbeta> just look up the codes
[10:21] <alexIdoia> finalbeta: how can you get those chars ?
[10:22] <alexIdoia> finalbeta: ?
[10:22] <finalbeta> alexIdoia: if you press altgr and a key, it will give a new char
[10:22] <nutterpc> longest I ever had for an uptime was with Gentoo, got 3 weeks
[10:22] <finalbeta> but you will have to google to find out which ones are hidden where
[10:22] <finalbeta> nutterpc: 1.2 years, windows XP.
[10:23] <alexIdoia> finalbeta: yeah well not the char I want
[10:23] <nutterpc> lol finalbeta, how did you manage that
[10:23] <finalbeta> nutterpc: don't touch it, don't update except for the firewall I guess.
[10:23] <nutterpc> hehehehe
[10:23] <alexIdoia> finalbeta: what I want is to set them myself, can I ?
[10:24] <merc> i had a slackware box that only went down during power outages :(

[10:24] <finalbeta> hjmills: it does serve, just no user sitting at it fiddeling with it.
[10:24] <lufi1> TheVault: sudo apt-get upgrade
[10:24] <finalbeta> alexIdoia: it's possible, but I don't know how, perhaps making your own key maps files.
[10:24] <hjmills> finalbeta,ah ok
[10:24] <TheVault> Then that will update Firefox for me?
[10:25] <lufi1> TheVault: to 2.0.2, yes
[10:25] <TheVault> Alright, Thank you very much!
[10:25] <lufi1> er, 2.2 or whatever it is

[10:25] <TheVault> Yeah your right 2.2....Alright install of Ubuntu is done, brb

[10:26] <finalbeta> alexIdoia: http://www.comptechdoc.org/os/linux/howlinuxworks/linux_hlkeymapfile.html << making your own keymap file can do it, don't know if it's the correct way though.

[10:28] <jrattner> Question: Has anyone ever used Songbird before?
[10:28] <tonyyarusso> riaal: how so?
[10:28] <slv> i have a simple question, i just installed xubuntu-desktop on top of my ubuntu install, and it works fine, but is there a way i can load up all the quicklaunchers i had up top in my ubuntu gnome install? i had a lot of apps on that bar and i don't want to have to manually set them all up again
[10:29] <slv> because a lot of them run apps with flags so i can't just add them right now, i'll have to go back and check each one
[10:29] <riaal> tonyyarusso, probably me but still, what kind of skins can I use whit ubuntu? Do I need a aplication or something to use them?
[10:29] <lufi1> Thug-N-Me: i dunno. are you sure build-essential is installed? don't mean to be condescending but once i spent long time trying to compile something when i thought i had gcc installed but actually didn't :P
[10:29] <Krunk> Is there a repository where I could find the ppd file for a Lexmark C510 color laser printer? I have the ppd file that works in Mandriva, but barfs in Ubuntu. Is there a palce where I can look for Ubuntu specific files?
[10:30] <Thug-N-Me> lufi1 i think the package require a diff version of gcc
[10:30] <tonyyarusso> riaal: Eh?  You just download and throw them into the interface mentioned.
[10:30] <Pelo> Krunk,  try looking the model up in the forum, you'll probably find instructions and links there
[10:30] <lufi1> Krunk: search ubuntuforums.org for your printer model, you'll probably find some guides
[10:30] <bentob0x> is there any official torrent download for kubuntu?
[10:31] <Krunk> thansk folks - will do
[10:31] <riaal> tonyyarusso, getting errors and messed up themes :S
[10:31] <lufi1> Thug-N-Me: oh, ok
[10:31] <riaal> tonyyarusso, shall I download "-GTK 2.x" themes?
[10:31] <tonyyarusso> riaal: Perhaps the theme isn't for the thing you're using....or it's just a broken theme.
[10:32] <tonyyarusso> riaal: I believe that's correct.
[10:32] <riaal> tonyyarusso, shall I just put the "packed" file in the theme explorer?
[10:32] <tonyyarusso> riaal: yeah
[10:32] <leo|server> how do i make vsftpd show  in my filenames?

[10:34] <matiu> PieMan, try ls /dev/eth0

[10:44] <PieMan> Network light on back of ubuntu box is on, router doesn't have individual lights. But on the config screen it shows nothing valid on that port
[10:44] <matiu> Rule of network setup: "Always check the hardware first  :) "

[10:44] <Arkaitz> Hey, anyone has succesfully installed Ubuntu with an ATI graphic card?
[10:45] <PieMan> matiu: I know the cable is good, tried it on a XP laptop
[10:45] <matiu> PieMan, is the ip address of you router in the same class..
[10:45] <tcgamer> DOES ANYONE HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH ALSA?
[10:45] <TheVault> Now that I have Ubuntu installed. What are some basic things that I will need to besides applying all the updates?
[10:45] <matiu> PieMan, like 192.168.1.1
[10:45] <PieMan> matiu: Router is 192.168.1.254
[10:45] <Marupa> tcgamer, Don't use ALSA.  use ESD.
[10:45] <matiu> ok
[10:46] <matiu> PieMan, from linux can you ping 192.168.1.254 ?
[10:46] <tcgamer> how od i change?
[10:46] <tcgamer> do*
[10:46] <xorl> Quick question, I have an ATI X1300, BUT i have a splitter cable that goes to two LCD's does the catalyst nix driver work with that?
[10:46] <tcgamer> Marupa, I'm trying to use TeamSpeak and Run A game at the same time
[10:46] <tcgamer> Marupa, I hear one or the other
[10:46] <crdlb> tcgamer, you could set up dmix instead
[10:46] <host_> question , I just installed a new video card, how do I set it up with X
[10:46] <PieMan> matiu: Yes, all coming in with good times
[10:46] <Marupa> tcgamer, that's because alsa requires dmix.  use esd instead.
[10:46] <erUSUL> host_: try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[10:46] <matiu> PieMan,  ah good
[10:46] <tcgamer> how?
[10:46] <tcgamer> i'm still a semi-n00b
[10:46] <matiu> PieMan, probably dns settings!
[10:47] <matiu> PieMan, try: dig google.com
[10:47] <tcgamer> Marupa, I'm still a semi-n00b
[10:47] <crdlb> tcgamer, look for a howto on alsa dmix
[10:47] <tcgamer> Marupa says esd..
[10:47] <Marupa> tcgamer, what crdlb said.
[10:47] <matiu> PieMan, if that fails try: dig @192.168.1.254 google.com
[10:47] <PieMan> matiu: I have no idea what happened, but its now showing up on the router status screen as connected by MAC address (now machine name)
[10:47] <__kamera__> i just installed edgy 6.10, how do i install webmin, is it on any repository or do i have to try it manually?
[10:47] <matiu> PieMan, Praise Jesus!
[10:47] <tcgamer> crdlb, what is the advantage of dmix?
[10:48] <erUSUL> !webmin > __kamera__
[10:48] <newuser> i`ve installed ubuntu linux and i have a problem with the bootloader, Error 17
[10:48] <tcgamer> crdlb, is that the name of the sound software DMIX?
[10:48] <__kamera__> erUSUL: ??
[10:48] <crafteh> anybody know how to sum only the positive numbers in a column in an openoffice spreadsheet?
[10:48] <crdlb> tcgamer, it is a software sound mixer
[10:48] <erUSUL> __kamera__: see the pm from ubotu...
[10:48] <erUSUL> !webmin
[10:48] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[10:48] <crdlb> tcgamer, built in to alsa
[10:48] <__kamera__> oh..
[10:48] <tcgamer> crdlb, not really finding any howto's
[10:49] <__kamera__> whats a good tool similar to webmin that is supported?
[10:49] <PieMan> matiu: *praises our lord and saviour* ;)
[10:49] <newuser> can anybody help me please?
[10:49] <erUSUL> __kamera__: dunno, sorry
[10:49] <crdlb> !dmix | tcgamer
[10:49] <ubotu> tcgamer: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[10:49] <PirateHead> I have two primary partitions, one 40GB and one 10GB. I want the second one to be 10 GB larger, but GKParted won't let me shrink my first partition and then grow the other one to fill the space. Do I have to create a third partition, or is there some other way I can do this?
[10:49] <Marupa> newuser, what is the question?
[10:49] <newuser> the bootloader has a problem ... Error 17
[10:49] <PieMan> matiu: "dig google.com" did nothing, "ping www.google.com" = "unknown host"
[10:49] <TheVault> Just finished installing ubuntu 6.10. What should I do now besides installing updates? Any tips?
[10:49] <valehru> Hey guys, I have beryl,edgy installed.  Its working well except for sometimes with certain applications I can no longer see them.  They appear all blank and white. Is there anything I can do?
[10:49] <ompaul> PieMan, do you have any routes off that box?
[10:50] <PirateHead> TheVault: make sure you check periodically for security updates, bugfixes, etc.
[10:50] <PieMan> ompaul: Sorry, what do yo umean?
[10:50] <tcgamer> crdlb, why doesn't ubuntu support multiple streams????????
[10:50] <apex`> who know any data recovery tool for linux, than can recovery from flash cards???
[10:50] <Arkaitz> Hey, anyone has succesfully installed Ubuntu with an ATI graphic card?
[10:50] <TheVault> PirateHead: Yeah, I am aware of things like that :D
[10:50] <newuser> Marupa, i realy need the bootloader... how do i fix it ?
[10:50] <erUSUL> newuser: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/grub-error-guide.xml

[10:50] <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
[10:50] <ompaul> PieMan, are you doing "host google.com"
[10:51] <erUSUL> newuser: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=120802
[10:51] <TheVault> PirateHead: Anything else?
[10:51] <PirateHead> TheVault: any sort of tips you're looking for in particular? Generally, once you have Ubuntu set up, it works fine.
[10:51] <linlin> hey i need something that i can run under ubuntu to nuke a slave drive
[10:51] <newuser> ok i will read right now, thanks
[10:51] <linlin> like DBAN but running on the existing OS
[10:51] <ompaul> PieMan, and getting nothing? cos it may be that you do not have a patch off the box
[10:51] <cliebow_> Pieman: in network-admin..what does your dns show?
[10:51] <TheVault> PirateHead: Umm, I remember trying to install Java Runtime awhile back but it never installed the plugin for Firefox
[10:51] <crdlb> tcgamer, your audio card does not have a hardware mixer so you have to use a software mixer
[10:51] <newuser> erUSUL, i`m on live CD right now
[10:51] <HiDensity> how can I change my xconf file when booting from the live cd?
[10:51] <linlin> anything that will just torture the hard drive
[10:51] <PieMan> ompaul: "host google.com" = "connection timed out; no servers could be reached"
[10:51] <ompaul> valehru, care to kill one of those clients?
[10:52] <PirateHead> TheVault: have you enabled the Universe and Multiverse repositories yet? They enable you to have access to a wider array of packages, such as Sun Java for firefox.
[10:52] <tcgamer> crdlb, this howto is pretty hardcore
[10:52] <PirateHead> I have a problem: I have two primary partitions, one 40GB and one 10GB. I want the second one to be 10 GB larger, but GKParted won't let me shrink my first partition and then grow the other one to fill the space. Do I have to create a third partition, or is there some other way I can do this?
[10:52] <TheVault> PirateHead: Yeah, I just got done setting up my wireless(finally & thank god) and yeah I enabled all the packages and respitories thing
[10:52] <apex`> who know any data recovery tool for linux, than can recovery from flash cards???
[10:52] <chairmeleon> hey, need some help with a very odd issue here
[10:52] <matiu> PieMan, dig @192.168.1.254 google.com
[10:52] <PirateHead> I still haven't set up my wireless. =D
[10:53] <tcgamer> crdlb, http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?title=DmixPlugin
[10:53] <ompaul> PieMan, so ehh can you do ifconfig and tell us if you have an actual IP
[10:53] <PirateHead> How do you even do that? I never thought about it, since I don't have a wireless router.
[10:53] <TheVault> PirateHead: right now I am upgrade, did the sudo apt-get upgrade and now its installing updates I guess
[10:53] <tcgamer> crdlb, is this the right howto?
[10:53] <matiu> PieMan, that will force it to use your router for dns, if that fails, it means your routers not doing dns forwarding
[10:53] <newuser> erUSUL, i don`t understand at all. Please tell me how do i delete the bootloader
[10:53] <valehru> ompaul, soz...that one was on a different server.
[10:53] <chairmeleon> while playing certain songs in my music collection, I get weird scratching/distortion noises in the background. This happens to the songs only under Ubuntu/GNOME, not in KDE, not in XP, nowhere else
[10:53] <TheVault> Setting up the wireless? Well I am no expert but I did the fwcutter thing, not the ndiswrapper
[10:53] <matiu> PieMan, if it succeeds it means your /etc/resolv.conf is not set up :)
[10:53] <ompaul> PieMan, what does it say after >> inet addr:
[10:53] <erUSUL> newuser: the error is becouse grub couldn't mount the partiton where the grub files are on. i dunno what the problem may be

[10:54] <newuser> erUSUL, how do i uninstall grup ?
[10:54] <PirateHead> newuser: can you run fsck?
[10:54] <erUSUL> newuser: to restore the windows bootloader boot with a wincd into the recovery console and issue the fixmbr command
[10:54] <TheVault> PirateHead: I was following this tutorial and it just worked, I was running the LIVE CD when I first set everything up because I did not want to screw anything up if I did install
[10:54] <PirateHead> newuser: uninstalling grub is not a great idea
[10:54] <matiu> PieMan, wron syntax
[10:54] <tcgamer> crdlb, is that the right link?????
[10:54] <matiu> PieMan,  dif @192.168.1.254 google.com
[10:54] <matiu> PieMan,  dig @192.168.1.254 google.com
[10:55] <Gin> I can't install flash guys
[10:55] <Gin> automatic installation failed due to network problems or upstream changes
[10:55] <matiu> PieMan, should be space before google.com
[10:55] <TheVault> newuser: to fix that, first you need to enter FIXBOOT and then FIXMBR in the recovery stage of your recovery CD
[10:55] <ompaul> tcgamer, many question marks do not increase the value of your question
[10:55] <newuser> fsck 1.38 (30-Jun-2005)
[10:55] <newuser> now what?
[10:55] <tcgamer> ompaul, sorry
[10:55] <TheVault> Got these upgrades are taking forever lol
[10:55] <TheVault> *god
[10:55] <newuser> TheVault, in terminal?
[10:56] <D7x> I have that little notification area box on my bottom panel, how come when alerts come from it, they covering my panel?
[10:56] <TheVault> your trying to remove grub?
[10:56] <tcgamer> crdlb, what is mpg321?
[10:56] <ompaul> PieMan, do "ifconfig" in a terminal and then tell us what does it say after >> inet addr:
[10:56] <massctrl> whoa, just made my first ubuntu install, and it just works, scary :-p
[10:56] <PieMan> matiu: It reeled off about 2 screens. Visible part is "ANSWER SECTION", "AUTHORITY SECTION", "ADDITIONAL SECTION" with various google.com names and ip addresses
[10:56] <PieMan> ifconfig
[10:56] <TheVault> newuser: you trying to remove grub?
[10:56] <crdlb> tcgamer, a command line mp3 player
[10:56] <matiu> PieMan, sounds good, just edit /etc/resolv.conf
[10:56] <cliebow_> brb
[10:56] <tcgamer> ko
[10:56] <tcgamer> ok
[10:57] <matiu> PieMan, and in the first line put: nameserver 192.168.1.254
[10:57] <newuser> TheVault, i want to use win and ubuntu the same time... but the bootloader gives me Error 17. I don`t know how to fix it. What solutions do i got?
[10:57] <PieMan> Hehe, ifconfig -> inet addr = 192.168.1.70
[10:57] <crdlb> tcgamer, you may not need to do anything to set up dmix, try playing two different files in totem at the same time
[10:57] <newuser> Well... not the same time.. but on the same PC
[10:57] <matiu> PieMan, then everything should be sweet
[10:57] <erUSUL> newuser: no, you have to boot with a windows xp instalation cd into the recovery console and then use fixmbr
[10:57] <CharlesR> is this accurate: ubuntu can read but not write NTFS disks?
[10:57] <matiu> TheVault, you accidently didn't blaspheme, then corrected it!!? Mamamia :P
[10:57] <newuser> erUSUL, what recovery console? You meen system restore ?
[10:57] <ompaul> PieMan, so after that there are two other numbers what are they?
[10:57] <TheVault> newuser: yeah, do what erUSUL just said
[10:57] <valehru> CharlesR, inaccurate
[10:58] <valehru> CharlesR, with various packages ubuntu can read and write
[10:58] <TheVault> matiu: what did I do wrong?
[10:58] <crdlb> tcgamer, what is the lspci line for your sound card?
[10:58] <CharlesR> presently readin gdc that says that, possibly outdated
[10:58] <newuser> erUSUL, i don`t know what the recovery console is...
[10:58] <tcgamer> crdlb, IT WORKED!
[10:58] <CharlesR> err reading doc
[10:59] <tcgamer> crdlb, but still not game with teamspeak
[10:59] <riaal> how to change to a custom icon for a link?
[10:59] <erUSUL> newuser: yes... something like that i do not remember the last time i have to use it (if ever)
[10:59] <matiu> TheVault, Using God's name in way that doesn't respect it..
[10:59] <dyrne> CharlesR: out of the box that is true
[10:59] <TheVault> newuser: press r when everything is booted up
[10:59] <apex`> who know any data recovery tool for linux, than can recovery from flash cards???
[10:59] <crdlb> tcgamer, you need to install alsa-aoss
[10:59] <matiu> TheVault, I'm sure He'll forgive you  if you ask him! :D
[10:59] <TheVault> matiu: I'm sorry
[10:59] <tcgamer> i think cables already had me install aoss
[10:59] <h0ndaracer2> hey is this the main ubuntu
[10:59] <newuser> TheVault, and then it apears something like a terminal or MS-DOS ?
[10:59] <joeyk_> ya
[10:59] <TheVault> yeah
[10:59] <TheVault> newuser: yeah it does
[10:59] <tcgamer> crdlb, then he told me to put aoss "program" in the shortcut
[11:00] <PieMan> matiu: resolv.conf was empty, so that looks like the problem. But it says Permission denied when I try to save. How do I use sudo with the command?
[11:00] <newuser> and then what?
[11:00] <crdlb> tcgamer, yes that's right
[11:00] <tcgamer> crdlb, yeah..didn't work
[11:00] <erUSUL> newuser: use fixmbr or fixboot or both
[11:00] <matiu> PieMan, sudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf
[11:00] <tcgamer> crdlb, I'm trying to run TeamSpeak and Enemy Territory if that is an issue?
[11:00] <newuser> erUSUL, what happens then ?
[11:00] <TheVault> newuser: erUSUL is correct on what hes saying :D
[11:00] <tcgamer> crdlb, maybe its the video sound?
[11:01] <matiu> TheVault, That was a very friendly response. May God bless you and your family heaps :D
[11:01] <tcgamer> crdlb, or am i making myself sound like more of a n00b
[11:01] <erUSUL> newuser: you will be able to boot windows as before the linux instalation
[11:01] <TheVault> matiu: Thanks
[11:01] <bclough> hello

[11:02] <HiDensity> i am trying to edit a file in gedit and it says that it "cannot open display"  any suggestions?
[11:02] <crdlb> tcgamer, run "lspci" and copy the line about your sound card to irc
[11:02] <tcgamer> crdlb, i can play two different audio files but not Teamspeak and a Game?
[11:02] <tcgamer> crdlb, ok
[11:02] <crdlb> tcgamer, it's because teamspeak uses oss which is the obsolete sound system
[11:02] <jrib> HiDensity: how are you opening gedit?
[11:02] <erUSUL> newuser: as i said the error 17 is indicating that grub can not access the boot or root partition for some reason
[11:03] <mcq91> hi, where can I set the default program for opening ".avi" files?
[11:03] <HiDensity> jrip: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:03] <jrib> !defaultapp | mcq91

[11:03] <newuser> erUSUL, maybe because i have 3 hard drives on my cpu ?
[11:03] <erUSUL> newuser: i dunno what is happening with your install maybe you have to tweak some things in the bios or in the grub config
[11:03] <tcgamer> crdlb, i just private messaged you
[11:03] <Malph> What do I need to edit to have apt-get download certain packages off of the net instead of asking for the CD

[11:09] <tcgamer> crdlb, y does it matter?
[11:09] <jrib> TheVault: do you have a real question?
[11:09] <mindstate> Bagoor, what do u mean
[11:09] <Bagoor> mindstate, sorry, I mean sessions
[11:09] <tcgamer> crdlb, i pmed to the link
[11:09] <crdlb> tcgamer, I just don't get why I don't see your pm
[11:09] <Muntrue> Hello, could anyone help me with lufsmount ?
[11:09] <tcgamer> can you see it
[11:09] <sotec_> the update manager says that i have 137 updates available. first off, it looks like it's listing doubles of the updated linux kernel and dependencies....is it worth it to just upgrade all that it says are available for upgrade, or pick and choose?
[11:09] <tony_> hey I'm on my ubuntu laptop at my office, and we got a guy here who works on our spanish webpages and wants to type in Spanish and have it autocorrect to put the accents in the way Word does... will open office do that?
[11:09] <tcgamer> crdlb, darn
[11:09] <TheVault> well, my gaim messenger just crashed and Iv always been told that programs in ubuntu never crash
[11:09] <Bagoor> mindstate, system -> preferences -> sessions -> startup sessions
[11:09] <HiDensity> jrib: how do I change the permissions of the xorg.conf file?
[11:09] <tony_> and if so, how?
[11:10] <tcgamer> okay, umm http://pastebin.com/892343
[11:10] <forngren> erUSUL: yeah, but I couldn't get any furter with it...
[11:10] <tcgamer> crdlb, http://pastebin.com/892343
[11:10] <HiDensity> jrib: I want to be able to save my changes
[11:10] <JJNova> I hae a question. When there is a newer version of software, is it the developers responsibility to get the newer version put into the package installer, or is there a place where we request that? For instance, the Azureus that comes packaged with 6.1 crashes a lot, but I manually installed the newer version, and it works great. I'd like to see the newer version in the package installer...
[11:10] <raven3x7> TheVault, lol
[11:10] <jrib> TheVault: all programs have bugs, some of those result in crashes unfortunately.  Can you run gaim ina  terminal and watch for interesting output when it crashes?
[11:10] <jrib> HiDensity: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:10] <jrib> !sudo | HiDensity
[11:10] <ubotu> HiDensity: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[11:10] <tcgamer> crdlb, get it?
[11:10] <tony_> TheVault: programs in ubuntu crash... it's just they don't take the OS down with them LOL.  Although it is annoying when programs just disappear...
[11:10] <TheVault> jrib: Ahhh, maybe I should do that
[11:10] <crdlb> tcgamer, pastebin.com is really slow
[11:10] <Bagoor> mindstate, not sure is it what you want or not. is it ?
[11:10] <TheVault> Oh ok, Thanks guys
[11:11] <raven3x7> Hidensity open it with sudo gedit PATH
[11:11] <ioerror> I'm interested in using RSA SecureID with a 6.06LTS server, has anyone done this previously? I can't find anything on the help pages or the wiki.

[11:12] <quaal> what is that command for finding where things went wrong.. dmesg something

[11:12] <quaal> dephtu   pts/0        :0.0             Thu Mar  1 14:38 - crash (1+02:18)
[11:12] <sotec_> quaal, no. i dont know if it's a system hangup, a hardware discrepancy, or what.

[11:13] <crdlb> tcgamer, particularly copy the .asoundrc file to your home directory
[11:13] <tcgamer> crdlb, what am i supposed to do with it?
[11:13] <mindstate> Bagoor, yeah i could do that lol thanks

[11:19] <apex`> Bagoor, ok
[11:19] <tcgamer> crdlb, i'm having trouble

[11:19] <n00b> dyrne: that will cut me off here, but I'll give it a go and then come back in a bit. Thx for yr help!

I want to upgrade my processor from a P3 733 MHz so I can give it a speed boost (memory boost helped a little bit, but I think I need a chip upgrade).  Usually for those, what should I consider as compatible with the chip socket?

[11:28] <Bagoor> Wibble-, not sure is it your answer or not, but try gdmsetup
[11:28] <apex`> Bagoor,  i plug in and thats all
[11:28] <tcgamer> crdlb, that file should be called .asoundrc and be placed in the home folder, correct?
[11:28] <crdlb> tcgamer, yes
[11:29] <Wibble-> Bagoor: unfortunately its not - that just lets me change settings at the main screen.  I want a second login to run concurrently
[11:29] <dojo> hey
[11:29] <mzanfardino> how can I determine what process might be attached to a specific port?

[11:34] <JULIANCITO> chiiiiiiiiii
[11:35] <JULIANCITO> you must use CHMOD
[11:35] <JULIANCITO> example
[11:35] <globe> Bagoor: Nvidia kernel module version != X module version
[11:35] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> tonyyarusso: will that make linux shut down properly? i dont want to "switch" it off

[11:35] <JULIANCITO> ok wardy ?
[11:35] <Bagoor> apex`, if your camera memory is broken, there is no way to recovery. Recovery is just possible when you have software broken on it
[11:35] <HiDensity> I cannot install ubunto because it doesn't recognize my graphics card correctly...it is an nvidia 7800 gt
[11:35] <ompaul> !enter | JULIANCITO
[11:35] <ubotu> JULIANCITO: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[11:35] <tonyyarusso> UbuntuN00B_HBG: Nah, that'll just kill it pretty much.  There are scripts for different buttons, let me see if I can remember where they are.
[11:35] <raven3x7> anyone using gnash on amd64? is it stable?
[11:35] <crdlb> MadP3nGu1n, totem?
[11:36] <wardy> juliancito: umm im so new to this linux thing its unreal, if you could explain real simply that would be great thanks.. :D
[11:36] <JULIANCITO> what ompaul ?
[11:36] <mzanfardino> JULIANCITO: thank you, btw.  it turns out my shutdown port in tomcat should have been 8085, not 8025, but it is useful to know how to see what's listening on which port
[11:36] <apex`> Bagoor, pics wass only deleted
[11:36] <globe> Bagoor: (but if I reinstall [and thus recompile]  after reboot it works great)
[11:36] <MadP3nGu1n> totem?
[11:36] <JULIANCITO> ok wardy
[11:36] <Bagoor> HiDensity, install it in command mode, and then install the nvidia module, and change xorg.conf then,
[11:36] <JULIANCITO> you need some class
[11:36] <wardy> no,,,
[11:36] <JULIANCITO> no ?
[11:36] <tonyyarusso> UbuntuN00B_HBG: try /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh
[11:36] <JULIANCITO> why ?
[11:36] <JULIANCITO> are you crazy ?
[11:36] <crdlb> MadP3nGu1n, is totem the media player you're using?
[11:36] <Bagoor> globe, no idea ! sorry
[11:36] <wardy> JULIANCITO: i dont get it XD
[11:36] <ooodze> gentlemen, why can't i reinstall gdm http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8283/
[11:36] <globe> Bagoor: no worries....thanks
[11:36] <MadP3nGu1n> im using vlc media player
[11:37] <H264> mind if I repeat my question?
[11:37] <ompaul> JULIANCITO, please keep your communications on one, is that okay, please do not use the enter key between each line of text, this is IRC not some IM convo
[11:37] <Innatech> Wardy: are your other machines Linux? How are you trying to share them?
[11:37] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> tonyyarusso: ill checkt it out... is it a script that will shut down the computer?
[11:37] <dyrne> HiDensity: you can either use alternate install cd or.. alt-ctrl-f2 then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop then sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf  scroll to near bottom and replace Driver nv with vesa. save file then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[11:37] <crdlb> MadP3nGu1n, if you move the video around and try to resize the window, does it sometimes show up partially?
[11:37] <JULIANCITO> ok ompaul
[11:37] <JULIANCITO> thanks for your friendship
[11:37] <MadP3nGu1n> it works untill i enable beryl..i can hear the audio,and if i move it around i can catch a glimps but it turns black
[11:38] <tonyyarusso> UbuntuN00B_HBG: It's the script that handles what happens when the button is pushed - you can comment out the stuff to log out if you're in a graphical environment, and I think then it will just do the last line (which is to shut down)
[11:38] <wardy> Innatech: my other machine is windows, im using samba on here, works fine, i can read files on ma windows machine, it wont let me write to this machine though :/
[11:38] <crdlb> MadP3nGu1n, the problem is with hardware scaling (XV)
[11:38] <trev_> does anyone know if evolution has newsgroups support?
[11:38] <MadP3nGu1n> solution?
[11:38] <raven3x7> anyone using gnash on amd64? is it stable?
[11:38] <ooodze> is it ok if i repeat my quetion?
[11:38] <JULIANCITO> see you
[11:38] <crdlb> MadP3nGu1n, for whatever reason, mplayer does not suffer from that problem
[11:38] <JULIANCITO> I will back
[11:38] <UbuntuN00B_HBG> tonyyarusso: yeah... i was just looking at it and thought of exactly the same thing! should work! many thanks! :)

[11:38] <ooodze> gentlemen, why can't i reinstall gdm? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8283/
[11:39] <MadP3nGu1n> quess ill go with that..thanks
[11:39] <H264> lol, too many ppl asking to many questions
[11:39] <raven3x7> arrenlex, so nslwrapper or 32bit FF are my options?
[11:39] <arrenlex> raven3x7: I highly advise you to use a 32-bit distro. You won't notice any performance increase under 64-bit under desktop use. Only difference is compatibility.
[11:39] <JULIANCITO> FOOD FOR HEAD........ubuntu ????
[11:39] <globe> ooodze: what was that url again?
[11:39] <wardy> Innatech: my other machine is windows, im using samba on here, works fine, i can read files on ma windows machine, it wont let me write to this machine though :/

[11:39] <ubotu> JULIANCITO: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[11:40] <raven3x7> arrenlex, i know  but i like playing around with stuff
[11:40] <Innatech> Wardy: try this thread, let us know if it helps. http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=322848
[11:40] <arrenlex> raven3x7: Yes, nspluginwrapper and a chroot are pretty much your only options, then.
[11:40] <raven3x7> arrenlex, flah isnt reallly important to me anyhow
[11:40] <wardy> Innatech: will do thanks ;)
[11:41] <JULIANCITO> ok

[11:42] <raven3x7> does anyone know how well does ubuntus 2.6.17 kernel work with ntfs-3g and fuse?
[11:42] <wardy> Innatech: rofl! no made no sense wat so ever to me, im new to linux, if u understand that, please explain slowly and basically to me  XD
[11:42] <raven3x7> does anyone know how well ubuntus 2.6.17 kernel works with ntfs-3g and fuse?
[11:43] <Innatech> riaal: not sure about WINE for WoW, but that's not the easiest way to install WINE. ;)
[11:43] <r00t__> are you mounting a ntfs drive?
[11:43] <Innatech> Wardy: there are permissions  and configurations within Samba that must be set correctly before the Linux file system permissions come into play.
[11:43] <n0ob> Hi, does anyone know where dyrne has gone?
[11:43] <riaal> Innatech, think I can go whit apt-get?
[11:44] <r00t__> anyone know much about rhythmbox streams?
[11:44] <raven3x7> r00t__, yeah. ntfs-3g usually needs 2.6.20 to work properly so i was wondering if the necessary changes have been backported
[11:44] <Innatech> riall: Well, it's probably worth a shot. You can always remove the package and try building from source as described in the thread you linked.
[11:44] <simondaking> i installed ubuntu that doesn't have access to internet, where can i codecs that i can download on this computer burn to disk and install on other?
[11:44] <kimmern> Hey! I've got some trouble with my Conexant hd audio...the sound only comes out of my laptop speakers..even when I put in headphones..anyone know how to solve
[11:44] <kimmern> ?
[11:44] <wardy> Innatech: go on,,, i ahev set permission in smb (or wherever) to SHARE (replaced "user")... wat else do i need to do so they are not read only?
[11:45] <crdlb> kimmern, run alsamixer in a terminal and check the balance
[11:45] <Innatech> Wardy: I'm not a big samba person, but my understanding is that the samba user must be mapped to a local user that has the correct permissions, and then the share itself needs to be made writable.
[11:46] <soundless> hi is there anyone who can help me with installing geforce 7200 drivers and set the bit depture...
[11:46] <globe> Innatech: you are correct...
[11:46] <riaal> My hdd is split into 2 half one running Ext3 (for linux) and the rest ntfs.. Can I get access to the ntfs partion?
[11:46] <simondaking> i installed ubuntu on a computer that doesn't have access to internet, where can i find codecs that I can download on this computer and burn to disk and install on other? *
[11:46] <r00t__> raven3x7 i understand that ntfs-3g is working when i installed  my old windows drive.
[11:46] <wardy> Innatech: so your saying that basically, the windows box needs to like virtually become a local user on this machine in oreder to wirte to the folders???
[11:46] <raven3x7> having installed fedora a few weeks ago i have to say apt is still so much better than yum it isnt even funny
[11:47] <Wibble-> Bagoor: I found it - I had to run "alacarte" and go to "applications" and toggle its visibility.  It was always installed, but disabled to simplify the interface.
[11:47] <soundless> is there anyone who can help me with installing geforce 7200 drivers and set the bit depture... pls?
[11:47] <n0ob> hey, I'm having trouble getting my wireless network to run properly - my laptop won't seem to connect to it even though it can see it. Does anyone have any idea what to I need to do?

[11:47] <Innatech> riaal: yes. Recently NTFS support in Linux has firmed up some. However, you may encounter some bugs still, so keep that in mind when working with important data.
[11:47] <kimmern> crdlb...got the master volum at 79 and "pcm" volume at 100..still nothing on the headphones.
[11:47] <riaal> Innatech, how do I mount it? :S
[11:47] <Bagoor> Wibble-, nice :) Thanks for sharing it with me
[11:48] <Bagoor> apex`, register man :) then you can write in PM
[11:48] <soundless> pls someone help me with this
[11:48] <raven3x7> r00t__, let me correct that for safest operation you need either 2.6.20 or the latest fuse(2.6.3) kmod in your kernel.
[11:48] <riaal> please? how to mount my other ntfs partion of the main hdd?
[11:49] <apex`> Bagoor, ok ;)
[11:49] <r00t__> i would go bleeding edge (2.6.3)...
[11:49] <Innatech> Wardy: Kind of. The samba user  needs to inherit permissions from some local user (terminology may be off there). So that's not exactly like becoming a local user, but that's the idea. Then there are seperate options for maing a share writable, aside from file system permissions and general Samba settings.
[11:49] <Innatech> Riall: just a sec.
[11:49] <raven3x7> !ntfs  |riaal

[11:51] <chona> how can i execute file.o using PHP??
[11:51] <r00t__> when i edited my fstab file with gedit. i added a line to mount my drive... the only problem is that  "ntfs-3g" was causing the drive to freeze and also my desktop. So i went back in and removed the "-3g" part andit works like  a champ
[11:51] <Bagoor> n0ob, you use WEP or WPA ?
[11:52] <n0ob> Bagoor: WEP
[11:52] <r00t__> WEP= BAD
[11:52] <n0ob> Ow
[11:52] <Arkaitz> hey
[11:52] <dv_> WPA=pain to set up
[11:52] <n0ob> lol
[11:52] <r00t__> easy to crack also =] 
[11:52] <raven3x7> r00t__, well you should not write with the ntfs driver as it is not safe. ntfs-3g on the other hand is supposedly safe
[11:52] <soundless> could someone pls help me to install graphic drivers and set bit depth to 32 bits (did this before but I forgot how and can't find anything on the forums )
[11:52] <fructose> How do I disable gdm/Xorg/gdmgreeter from running until I reboot?
[11:52] <Bagoor> n0ob, so you should be able to easily access it thru network-admin
[11:52] <dv_> wpa is easy to crack?
[11:52] <linuxnewbie756> When in april is feisty supposed to be released?
[11:53] <riaal> raven3x7, can I just use something like "sudo mount /dev/sda5 /media/windows" ?
[11:53] <Innatech> dv_: no, WEP is trivial to crack. WPA, properly set up, is harder.
[11:53] <n0ob> Bagoor: How do I do this? I'm very new to all this Ubuntu etc. sorry
[11:53] <r00t__> raven3x7, that is what i hear, but it seemed to work for the time being. anyway. the files are just music on the mounted ntfs anyway.
[11:53] <dv_> Innatech, I suppose a PSK is *not* a proper setup?
[11:53] <r00t__> as am I n0ob
[11:53] <Bagoor> n0ob, open a terminal, write : sudo network-admin
[11:54] <wardy> Innatech: aarrrgghh  why is nothing simple, all i wanna do at the very least is have one folder writable so i can put stuff in it, you dont know how to set it up no?
[11:54] <raven3x7> riaal if you added it to fstab yes. otherwise you need to add -t ntfs to that command
[11:54] <Arkaitz> hoe can I install Ubuntu without enabling the acpi, because I get an error. ubutnu kernel: [17180022.900000]  ACPI Exception (acpi_video-1575): UNKNOWN_STATUS_CUDE, Cant attach device [20060707] 
[11:54] <Innatech> dv_: heh. Well, at that point you get into arguments about whether PSK is OK with a sufficiently complex key, yadda yadda yadda.
[11:54] <soundless> pff wish someone could help me :)
[11:54] <fructose> Is there a way to kill gdm/Xorg/gdmgreeter so they won't restart right away?
[11:54] <soundless> .
[11:54] <n0ob> Bagoor: Ah, its that! :) Iv configured it through that but it still doesn't seem to connect?
[11:54] <dv_> Innatech, its not as if there were other options for a home user.
[11:54] <cefx> er

[11:55] <riaal> raven3x7, "sudo mount /dev/sda5 /media/windows -t ntfs" ?
[11:55] <raven3x7> r00t__, well it works but there the ntfs project advises against it
[11:55] <niklasv> fructose: /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[11:55] <Innatech> Wardy: it can be made simple--its just that the Linux way doesn't favor hiding what the computer is doing from you.
