[12:01] <cables> Hey, does anyone know if Ubuntu's been updated for daylight savings time?
[12:01] <riqz> guys whts the name of a good light mp3 player.. with gui pls
[12:01] <DPic> can somebody who knows how to install java runtime environment please send me a private message
[12:01] <HolyGoat> Exershio: Can't afford better stuff?
[12:01] <arooni> when i plug in my headphones to my laptop, i *still* get audio output out of the builtin speakers.... is there a way around this?
[12:01] <eugman> riqz, xxms
[12:01] <soundray> !tr | DiSRupT0r
[12:01] <ubotu> DiSRupT0r: Turk ubuntu kullanicilari, turkce yardim yada geyik icin #ubuntu-tr hizmetinizde.
[12:01] <HolyGoat> riqz: xmms
[12:01] <Exershio> HolyGoat: Unfortunately not atm. I figured Ubuntu would be faster than Windows XP
[12:01] <soundray> cables: yes
[12:02] <riqz> would sudo apt-get install xmms do the trick
[12:02] <crdlb> HolyGoat, audacious is a better xmms
[12:02] <crdlb> imho
[12:02] <DiSRupT0r> tty
[12:02] <cables> soundray, what package was updated for that to work?
[12:02] <DiSRupT0r> man
[12:02] <HolyGoat> Exershio: Well it depends on what you do/run/configure to some extent.
[12:02] <Exershio> HolyGoat: Is there a significant difference in speed with 1280x1024 and 1024x768? or does resolution not really matter
[12:02] <soundray> magnushc: it comes in a ubuntu package. Note ubotu's private message:
[12:02] <mnikic> hello people, i am new here on this server ( undernet stinks )
[12:02] <truvisionary> how would I install compiz?
[12:02] <soundray> !software > magnushc
[12:02] <HolyGoat> crdlb: I can't recall trying it. What makes it better?
[12:02] <soundray> cables: libc6
[12:02] <cables> !compiz | truvisionary
[12:02] <ubotu> truvisionary: 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
[12:02] <cables> soundray, thanks.
[12:03] <riqz> guys would i install xmms by just typing sudo apt-get install xmms?
[12:03] <cables> soundray, I guess it could just be stuck in any package that needs updating, right?
[12:03] <HolyGoat> Exershio: That shouldn't matter much. If the monitor is capable of handling it with a decent refresh rate, that is.
[12:03] <crdlb> HolyGoat, one plus is that it's gtk2
[12:03] <superkirbyartist> !av
[12:03] <soundray> cables: no
[12:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about av - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:03] <superkirbyartist> !clamav
[12:03] <ubotu> clamav: antivirus scanner for Unix. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.88.4-1ubuntu2.1 (edgy), package size 65 kB, installed size 208 kB
[12:03] <Exershio> HolyGoat: I have the refresh rate on 60, I dunno what refresh rates are lol
[12:03] <cables> soundray, why libc then?
[12:03] <HolyGoat> riqz: yep
[12:03] <riqz> holygoat : ty
[12:03] <Jordan_U> Exershio, If Ubuntu is running slower than XP for you I would first check your GPU drivers, then try Xubuntu
[12:03] <soundray> cables: timezone management is traditionally a part of libc6
[12:03] <DPic> i'm new to linux and i need to install java runtime environment
[12:03] <cables> soundray, got it
[12:03] <DPic> can somebody help me?
[12:03] <riqz> exershio maybe u didnt install drivers correctly
[12:04] <DiSRupT0r> who speak very well truk plz?
[12:04] <cables> DPic, sure.
[12:04] <soundray> !java > DPic, read the msg from ubotu pls
[12:04] <Exershio> riqz: I dunno how to install any drivers on here, I'm totally new to this
[12:04] <HolyGoat> Exershio: Simply put, it's the rate at which your monitor can refresh the screen. 60 is quite low.
[12:04] <Jordan_U> superkirbyartist, Just install the package "clamav" and run "clamav /"
[12:04] <boofar> hi, busy channel, can someone recommend a channel to discuss RAID setup, thanks.
[12:04] <cables> DPic, if Ubotu's message doesn't help, come back here and ask me.
[12:04] <Exershio> riqz: I have integrated intel video, so I dunno what to download
[12:04] <riqz> exershio: thats the proble then
[12:04] <Exershio> HolyGoat: Should I try setting it higher?
[12:04] <Jrabbit> ok
[12:04] <progek> hi room, im using kubuntu (used ubuntu for a long time too) and have a question about nvidia drivers. Kubuntu channel does not respond so I was hoping someone here can help me
[12:04] <Jordan_U> boofar, Harware RAID or software RAID?
[12:04] <aixing_> !java > aixing
[12:04] <Jrabbit> I have issues getting X to use xorg.conf
[12:04] <riqz> exershio: what gfx card u got?
[12:04] <HolyGoat> Exershio: You can notice it if the screen appears to shake a tiny bit which can give you a bad headache.
[12:04] <cables> progek, go ahead.
[12:05] <HolyGoat> Exershio: Only if your monitor supports it.
[12:05] <riqz> exershio: well what drivers do u have for it on windows
[12:05] <cables> progek, graphics drivers don't care what desktop environment you use
[12:05] <Jordan_U> Jrabbit, Why do you think it's not using xorg.conf?
[12:05] <boofar> Jordan_U, software raid. i have RAID 5 set up with 3 drives and am getting 32mb/second write speed (using dd benchmarking)
[12:05] <Exershio> riqz: I'm not sure exactly, it was Intel Extreme Graphics or something of the sort
[12:05] <riqz> exershio gimme  a sec
[12:05] <Exershio> HolyGoat: In my resolution changer thing, it only has 60 available for refresh rate XD Does that mean it doesn't support anything else?
[12:05] <Jrabbit> Jordan_U: I updated it and did a X restart, a reboot and no luck
[12:05] <aixing_> !java > aixing_
[12:05] <Exershio> riqz: okay
[12:06] <mx-zoom> how can I make ipod be /dev/ipod instead of /dev/sd* . All I can do at the moment is link /dev/sd* to /dev/ipod , but the ipod still uses /dev/sd* too
[12:06] <Jordan_U> Jrabbit, What did you update and what do you mean by "no luck" ?
[12:06] <Jrabbit> Jordan_U: The added res. isn't appering as my GDM (Its 1st on the list) or in the options in Ubuntu)
[12:06] <riqz> exershio:  go to this link http://absolutebeginner.wordpress.com/2006/07/26/installing-intel-815852855-graphics-controller-drivers-on-ubuntu-debian/
[12:06] <crdlb> mx-zoom, you need to make a custom udev rule
[12:06] <progek> cables, thanks, well I have an nvidia card and I installed nvidia-glx then ran nvidia-xconfig, after that glxinfo states my direct rendering is on but I have terrible lag with 3d apps (unlike when I ran ubuntu) and control+alt backspace does not work anymore. Any ideas? usname -r shows generic kernel, I wonder if this has anything to do with it?
[12:06] <whieimhere> Hi there is a progra that allows you to burn your downloaded deb files to a CD and use that as a CD repo does anyone know its name?
[12:06] <amx> any idea why my apt-get suddenly cannot connect to archive.ubuntu.com, or security.ubuntu.com?
[12:06] <Exershio> riqz: Okay, I'll check that out, thanks
[12:06] <HolyGoat> Exershio: It still depends. The maximum refresh rate is in the technical specs for your monitor. You can configure your monitor in /etc/X11/xorg.conf after looking up the specs, chances are that you can run at a higher refresh rate.
[12:06] <ledbettj> Does anyone know anything about setting up my IDE DVDRW drive using the ide-cd module so that 1) cdrecord -scanbus shows it and 2) I can burn something besides a coaster? :)
[12:07] <Jordan_U> Jrabbit, Ahh, then you probably don't have the correct GFX drivers installed, what kind of card do you have?
[12:07] <amx> I can ping those, or connect to them with w3m fine
[12:07] <HolyGoat> Exershio: That said, it won't make your system any faster. It'll just be easier on the eyes.
[12:07] <cables> progek, I don't know why that would happen...
[12:07] <Jrabbit> Jordan_U: That it doesn't display in  1280 x 1024 after adding "1280x1024" in the papporitrate spaces
[12:07] <Exershio> HolyGoat: ah, okay, I'll check into that then
[12:07] <mx-zoom> crdlb: I have searched everywhere and all I found is a way to make udev link the ipod device to /de/ipod. but it will still be /dev/sd* too
[12:07] <Jrabbit> Jordan_U: ATI Radon x300 on Vesa
[12:07] <riqz> YESSSSSS! i can see all my movies on linux
[12:07] <Exershio> HolyGoat: I just don't want to accidentally screw my monitor settings up and render my system unusable
[12:07] <whieimhere> NM I found it its called APTonCD
[12:08] <HolyGoat> Exershio: Good thinking, because that stuff is risky.
[12:08] <Jordan_U> Jrabbit, VESA does not support those Resolutions, install fglrx
[12:08] <Jrabbit> Jordan_U: fgrlx was fucking up my system before
[12:08] <progek> anyone know if generic kernel works ok with nvidia drivers?
[12:08] <arooni> is there a way of sounding speaker volume separately then headphone volume?
[12:08] <crdlb> mx-zoom, I don't know that you can change that, what's the harm in having the sd* too?
[12:08] <Jrabbit> Jordan_U: I had a crash of X11
[12:08] <soundray> progek: of course it does
[12:08] <Jordan_U> Jrabbit, VESA does not support those resolutions, you can also try the "ati" driver
[12:08] <soundray> arooni: only if your hardware supports that
[12:09] <HolyGoat> Exershio: You must be a student or something if you can't afford a better PC? :)
[12:09] <arooni> well how would i do that if i could
[12:09] <arooni> soundray: i mean
[12:09] <Jrabbit> Jordan_U: ATIs the worst one do you even have an ATI card?
[12:09] <riqz> is BMP better than xmms?
[12:09] <Exershio> HolyGoat: yep, I'm only 15 and can't get a job yet lol
[12:09] <progek> soundray, thanks, maybe you can help. Im trying to install nvidia drivers in kubuntu. After installing nvidia-glx and running nvidia-xconfig control+alt+backspace stops working and I still have lag in 3d apps (direct rendering states its on in glxinfo however)
[12:09] <TheVault> Whats the command to extract a the contents of a exe file?
[12:09] <Jordan_U> Jrabbit, Yes, I do.
[12:09] <mx-zoom> crdlb: because I have an usb that uses to be sdb and I set it in fstab. if I don't have the disc pluged in, ipod takes sdb and I get some errors because fstab tries to mount it with the wrong settings
[12:09] <Jrabbit> Riqz: depends
[12:09] <HolyGoat> Exershio: Aha, ok. Well it's good to start early with Linux.
[12:10] <Jrabbit> Riqz: if its bmpx yes :p
[12:10] <progek> when I ran ubuntu, I never had lag
[12:10] <crdlb> mx-zoom, then make a custom run for it too
[12:10] <riqz> jrabbit: well i have BMP and im also installing xmms
[12:10] <soundray> arooni: open gnome volume control, see if you have separate sliders. You may have to Edit-Preferences
[12:10] <Exershio> HolyGoat: Yeah, I was fed up with Windows, and I heard Ubuntu was the easiest to start with
[12:10] <Jrabbit> Riqz: BMP is a fork of XMMS
[12:10] <crdlb> mx-zoom, all usb devices had a unique vendor and device id
[12:10] <Jordan_U> Jrabbit, ATI has really crappy drivers for Linux, there is usually no way around it :(
[12:10] <Jrabbit> Riqz: No need to really
[12:10] <crdlb> riqz, audacious is my favorite
[12:10] <crdlb> also a XMMS clone
[12:10] <Jrabbit> Jordan_U: I know
[12:10] <Exershio> HolyGoat: How can I check my maximum refresh rate with 1280x1024?
[12:10] <Jrabbit> Jordan_U: This is my 3rd install of ubuntu
[12:10] <joshjosh> Exershio: Easiest? Heh. Nope. But it's worth it once you get it set up the way you want. You'll learn more about computer using ubuntu for a month than you have using windows for years.
[12:10] <Exershio> HolyGoat: My monitor is a Compaw MV720
[12:11] <TheVault> Whats the command to extract all the contents of a exe file? I am trying to get this driver outta it
[12:11] <Exershio> Compaq*
[12:11] <mx-zoom> crdlb: probably will have to do that
[12:11] <Jrabbit> Jordan_U: Its a new issue every new version
[12:11] <HolyGoat> Exershio: Probably, I suppose I can't really relate to how someone who just starts using Linux sees it. I've been using Linux since around 1997
[12:11] <joshjosh> thevault:sudo unzip -a i think
[12:11] <crdlb> TheVault, cabextract ?
[12:11] <boofar> wow, this channel needs breakouts.. good luck all
[12:11] <eugman> Anyone know of a good program to make a hex grid I can print out?
[12:11] <riqz> ill try both and see which one i like best
[12:11] <TheVault> lemme try both of ur guys methods
[12:11] <ax3> anyone have a link for upcoming changes in the new Ubuntu version?
[12:11] <Jordan_U> TheVault, fwcutter?
[12:11] <ax3> err "feisty fawn"
[12:11] <Exershio> HolyGoat: Hah, that's a long time. I've been using Windows for 6 years now, and it's annoying me to death
[12:12] <ax3> just wanna read up on new version and features
[12:12] <soundray> ax3: read the topic in #ubuntu+1
[12:12] <joshjosh> what's the average age of ubuntu users i wonder?
[12:12] <HolyGoat> Exershio: Your specs should give you your refresh rates and resolutions. Once you have those configured in xorg.conf, you can use GUI tools to configure your resolution and refresh rate.
[12:12] <ledbettj> does the ide-cd module support cd burning, or do I need to use ide-scsi instead?
[12:12] <agd5f> Is it possible to boot an install disc from grub?
[12:12] <giughe> yo can anyone help me to setup my dual monitors?
[12:13] <ax3> soundray: cool didn't know that channel existed :)
[12:13] <Exershio> HolyGoat: Alright. I'm gonna look up my monitor on the net and see if I can find any info on it =p
[12:13] <Jordan_U> agd5f, AFIK not unless it is a GRUB floppy.
[12:13] <HolyGoat> Exershio: You need the specs to fill out the HorizSync and VertRefresh configs in xorg.conf
[12:13] <Jordan_U> agd5f, Why?
[12:13] <arooni> i mean... why does my laptop speaker produce sound when i put in headphones
[12:13] <HolyGoat> So that's what you want to be looking for.
[12:13] <whieimhere> Is there a tutorial about converting fla files to say AVi or MPEG (not sure what ones better or smaller)
[12:13] <arooni> how can if ix this
[12:13] <crdlb> whieimhere, use mencoder
[12:14] <joshjosh> whieimhere: you get your live cd working?
[12:14] <Jordan_U> arooni, You can mute the channel using alsamixer
[12:14] <Exershio> HolyGoat: I don't really know what that means or what to do. I've edited xorg.conf before to try and get a custom resolution (1152x864) but it didn't help
[12:14] <eugman> agd5f, do you mean the computer doesn't recognize the cd as a boot option or is something else the problem?
[12:14] <agd5f> Jordan_U: The machine I want to install on has no external media.  only a HD.
[12:14] <HolyGoat> Exershio: Can't help you much further though, I'm off to sleep (just past midnight here). Have fun using Linux.
[12:14] <whieimhere> joshjosh nope not yet
[12:14] <TheVault> nope, none of those command extracts the files from a exe
[12:14] <Exershio> HolyGoat: Okay, thanks for all the help. Good night
[12:14] <eugman> oh
[12:14] <TheVault> Does anybody else know how?
[12:14] <whieimhere> joshjosh I managed to get enlightenment 17 to compile and install
[12:14] <arooni> Jordan_U: i dont see a way to turn up headphone... only "front'
[12:14] <Jordan_U> agd5f, I would install a base CLI system to an HD then Just swap it into the machine
[12:15] <agd5f> Jordan_U: yeah, I did that orginially, but I don't feel like ripping it apart to get the drive out again
[12:15] <TheVault> Anybody know the command to get the files out of a exe file?
[12:15] <Jordan_U> agd5f, You can install from a thumb drive
[12:16] <Jordan_U> TheVault, For what purpose?
[12:16] <agd5f> Jordan_U: nope, machine boots from harddrive only
[12:16] <joshjosh> thevault: you try sudo unzip -a?
[12:16] <soundray> TheVault: there is no single command that does that, and it is not necessarily possible
[12:16] <agd5f> it's an old laptop
[12:16] <Msword> im back!
[12:16] <Jrabbit> Question, does an ATI card work with AIGX?
[12:16] <TheVault> Jordan_U: To get a driver out
[12:16] <Jordan_U> agd5f, Netboot?
[12:16] <TheVault> joshjosh: will try now
[12:16] <crdlb> Jrabbit, less than 9600 yes
[12:16] <p47> how can I unistall kiba dock complete ? I have problems and I need to reinstall like new.
[12:16] <Msword> who was helping me? I can't remember
[12:16] <soundray> TheVault: you may have to run it with wine
[12:16] <agd5f> Jordan_U: wifi only
[12:16] <Jordan_U> TheVault, For wireless? NDIS wrapper or broadcom?
[12:16] <joshjosh> p47: sudo apt-get remove kiba-dock
[12:16] <Jrabbit> crdlb:  thanks
[12:17] <TheVault> Jordan_U: Yeah
[12:17] <MasterRa2> alright.. where can i go for feisty bug reports and/or help?
[12:17] <joshjosh> p47: maybe go through synapitic and uninstall that way and put mark for complete removal
[12:17] <p47> joshjosh: yes, but when I install gain I can't see kiba dock
[12:17] <TheVault> joshjosh: That command don't work btw
[12:17] <joshjosh> materra2: system: port a problem
[12:17] <Jordan_U> MasterRa2, launchpad and #ubuntu+1
[12:17] <snoogie> evening
[12:17] <agd5f> I guess grub won't help anyway... it can't see USB...
[12:17] <joshjosh> thevault: hmm...what are you downloading? r140747.exe?
[12:17] <Jrabbit> crdlb:  Fglrx and AIGLX works with ATI and beryl?
[12:17] <TheVault> joshjosh: No
[12:18] <MasterRa2> i'm trying to run from a drive other than hda (in this case, hdd1 is my root partition, hdd3 is my /home, hdd2 is swap..) but after the initial install and then a reboot, it won't boot cuz it can't find hdd1! (it drops me to a busyboxy terminal where i can see /dev/hdd but not /dev/hdd1!)
[12:18] <nrdb> Hi, I am using ubuntu 6.06 LTS with the 2.6.15-28-686 kernel, I am wondering why there hasn't been a vmware-player-kernel-meodules package yet for this kernel ? :( its been some time since the kernel was updated.
[12:18] <snoogie> Did someone know the name of developper channel ?
[12:18] <agd5f> maybe i could copy the cd to a partition and use grub to boot that
[12:18] <Msword> riqz
[12:18] <Jordan_U> Jrabbit, No, AIGLX does not work with fglrx, only "ati"
[12:18] <Msword> you still here?
[12:18] <whieimhere> Is there a way to get GAIM to play a sound if someone used my nick in the chat?
[12:18] <soundray> snoogie: #ubuntu-devel
[12:18] <TheVault> Trying to extract the contents of the exe file I downloaded here: http://www.gigafast.com/products/product_drivers/WF748-UI_drivers.htm , the one that has a b in the name
[12:18] <Jordan_U> snoogie, #ubuntu-devel

[12:18] <crdlb> Jrabbit, you have to use the open source radeon driver which only supports (<=9600 stably) to use AIGLX
[12:18] <TheVault> if it makes anymore sense, trying to install a Gigafast USB Adapter
[12:19] <p47> I can't see kiba dock, please help me !
[12:19] <Jrabbit> crdlb: Uh ok
[12:19] <Msword> ok guys
[12:19] <mEck0> I want to buy a tv-card (have analog cable-tv for the moment, but want digital-tv support on the card too), but don't know which I should buy :S Is the usb-ones good? It would be a plus because I could then use it for my laptop too. And yes, Linuxsupport would be nice too.
[12:19] <joshjosh> thevault: you could install it in a windows systenm, then email the files to yourself
[12:19] <just22> hi, may u help me please?
[12:19] <Msword> i got this problem installing: File system doesn't have expected sizes for windows to like it. Cluster size is 2k(1k expected) Number of clusters is 20017(39957 expected) Size of FATs is 79 sectors(157 expected)
[12:19] <mx-zoom> whieimhere: if you went to the trouble of going to settings  sound you'd have found it
[12:19] <joshjosh> p347: you got beryl or compix up/
[12:19] <Msword> i'm trying to dual boot
[12:19] <Msword> with xp
[12:19] <Jordan_U> TheVault, Are you even sure your card is not supported by native Linux drivers?
[12:19] <whieimhere> mx-zoom I did and I turned it up and i have audio
[12:20] <TheVault> joshjosh: I could but i found this tutorial on setting up ndiswrapper and it gave a command to extract a exe file
[12:20] <Sk8aElf> anybody wise in the ways of ubuntu lamp server  who could help me out with a few problems/questions     starting with how to set up multiple domain hosting thru webmin
[12:20] <whieimhere> mx-zoom but when you just chatted me I did not get a sound
[12:20] <TheVault> Jordan_U: Yeah it is
[12:20] <mx-zoom> whieimhere: then that's it. should work
[12:20] <lilrayray> hi all, how do you configure your netwrok adapter (like choosing SSID) from the terminal or commandline?
[12:20] <eck> !webmin
[12:20] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[12:20] <soundray> mEck0: it's a lottery -- most boxes don't say what chipset the TV card in it has. Most dealers don't know, either
[12:20] <just22> i use compiz.. everything works.. the only one shity thing is that my shell is completely white....
[12:20] <Jordan_U> TheVault, Then why are you trying to use windows drivers?
[12:20] <mx-zoom> whieimhere: are you using your soundcard for anything else? music, etc
[12:20] <soundray> !ohmy | just22
[12:20] <ubotu> just22: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[12:20] <Msword> someone help me?
[12:20] <TheVault> Cause thats what this tutorial is telling me to do
[12:20] <whieimhere> mz-zoom I am not playing anything at all

[12:21] <soundray> mEck0: having said that, Hauppauge devices tend to work, and so do Technotrend ones.
[12:21] <mEck0> soundray, okey, hmm, but can any of you recommend any? someone must have used tv-cards here? under linux too?

[12:21] <whieimhere> mx-zoom please say my name now
[12:21] <eck> Sk8aElf: skip webmin and read the apache docs, they are not too bad
[12:21] <mEck0> soulcatcher_, okey, because I have looked some at hauppage's cards
[12:22] <mx-zoom> whieimhere: :)
[12:22] <whieimhere> nope still no sound
[12:22] <soundray> mEck0: I have a dedicated machine with Technotrend DVB cards (one terrestrial, one satellite) running debian.
[12:22] <whieimhere> I know that in the pref window I can test it and it works
[12:22] <nickwebcouk> Aaarrghh.. I hate Broadcom.

[12:22] <Msword> I'm trying to dual boot linux and windows, i was just installing linux and i got this error: File system doesn't have expected sizes for windows to like it. Cluster size is 2k(1k expected) Number of clusters is 20017(39957 expected) Size of FATs is 79 sectors(157 expected)
[12:22] <quaal__> with this bug reporting tool does it automatically send it or do i need to save it to a txt file
[12:22] <quaal__> "bug buddy"
[12:22] <mx-zoom> whieimhere: I remember it to have worked in my ubuntu box.
[12:23] <Sk8aElf> eck: there a better web admin interface instead of using webmin ?
[12:23] <arooni> how can i 'save' a list of commands i type frequently, so i dont forget htem
[12:23] <whieimhere> Okay I had to check something here. please try it again

[12:23] <lilrayray> how do you configure your netwrok adapter (like choosing SSID) from the terminal or commandline?
[12:23] <nickwebcouk> can anyone help? I've just reinstalled for the 3rd time, and I have just tried the NDISWRAPPER install to install my integrated WLAN card.. Now wlan0 isnt even showing up..
[12:23] <n-iCe> !java
[12:23] <soundray> mEck0: they are PCI cards, though. I have a dibcom USB device that works with Linux, too, and I've tried an MSI one that doesn't
[12:23] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[12:23] <Exershio> Can someone help me? I'm trying to get my monitor at "1152 x 864  	75 Hz", but I cant get it working. I had it working on Windows XP fine. I used 915resolution to make 1152x864 appear, but setting it to that just made my screen blank/black and nothing worked. How can I set it to that?
[12:23] <lesshaste> can I install a package from debian unstable in ubuntu?
[12:23] <eck> Sk8aElf: no, the reason that webmin was dropped from ubuntu (and other hosting panels) is because they are security nightmares, and they frequently make troubleshooting a system very difficult
[12:23] <facugaich> arooni, you can save them in a .sh file, and then double click the file and "execute" to run them
[12:23] <mEck0> soundray, ahh, I will look at that card. Thx. I want to digitalize some old vhs-casettes to (which we have filmed for a long time ago) and of course watching tv. I wonder if the quality is at least as good as on the tv?
[12:23] <mx-zoom> whieimhere: why are you using gaim anyway? try xchat and the systray plugin. it flashes when you get a pm
[12:24] <whieimhere> oh okay
[12:24] <whieimhere> ill do that
[12:24] <arooni> facugaich: can you tell me how to do that
[12:24] <eck> Sk8aElf: if you do not use a hosting panel, you can find help in #apache and others; if you are using one, you are sort of on your own
[12:24] <soundray> mEck0: most DVB cards don't support capturing. You need an analog one - make sure it has an input connector

[12:25] <Jordan_U> lesshaste, NO.
[12:25] <Sk8aElf> eck :   joy oh joy ..  not the answer i was wanting today =/   ty tho for your answer
[12:25] <arooni> facugaich: but ill have to be in the same direcotry to find it
[12:25] <lesshaste> Jordan_U: why is that?
[12:25] <arooni> later
[12:25] <MrSHiat> hey all. Just curious, is there any way to initiate the install from a flash drive within a different distribution of linux?
[12:25] <lineman60> I could not find it in the profrences
[12:25] <Jordan_U> lesshaste, Different distros to not maintain binary comatibility
[12:25] <soundray> mEck0: PC monitors tend to be /too/ good for TV. You get some artifacts.

[12:25] <lilrayray> how do you configure your netwrok adapter (like choosing SSID) from the terminal or commandline?

I am establishing a SOCKS tunnel to a host by doing 'ssh -D1234 shellcompany.com' then I can use localhost:1234 as a SOCKS proxy for browsing, however, other computers on my network can't connect to that port.  In PuTTY theres an option to make it accept connections from the outside, how do I do that in manual ssh syntax?

[12:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about price - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:29] <eck> n-iCe: you just need to enable multiverse and install sun-java5-jre
[12:29] <n-iCe> Kubuntu 6.10 is the same as ubuntu ?
[12:29] <soundray> mEck0: digital non-HD TV is no different in resolution from analog. So the monitor issues are the same. HD may be different.
[12:29] <eck> or java 6 if that is what you want

[12:30] <eck> brenton_: you can just reformat the partition(s) it is on
[12:30] <soundray> mEck0: that device you linked has only a TV aerial input apparently. If you digitize video through that, you lose some quality. It's better if you have S-Video in

[12:32] <eugman> If I make install something is it easy to uninstall it?
[12:32] <eck> eontasticness: make sure you don't actually need 1.5 for another package though
[12:32] <soundray> brenton_: no, for that you need to "repair" your installation with a Windows install CD
[12:32] <arrenlex> blurn: Explains why so few people run Linux. Ubuntu tries to sidestep that as much as possible.
[12:32] <SmileyLap> kingcobra: you can try :) im a gentoo guy, but i use ubuntu on my laptop, and its time for me to give something back :)

[12:33] <eontasticness> eugman, anything built from src is not easy to remove, packages keep track of where files are installed to, source does not

[12:34] <Flannel> Msword: we all read your previous two things, no need for a third (or even the second)
[12:34] <Jordan_U> Msword, I have no clue what that error means but you might try the alternate install CD
[12:34] <SmileyLap> kingcobra: i coudlnt' get network manager working, but have you tried disabling the network connection you wish to configure in System >Administration > Networks
[12:34] <eugman> eontasticness, what would I have to do to uninstall if I needed to?
[12:34] <Flannel> Msword: are you sure that's the exact error text?  I've... never heard of that before, and neither has google.
[12:35] <Msword> yes
[12:35] <blurn> arrenlex, its automated like most distros, you merely have to not intend on using your pc while installing stuff :P
[12:35] <eontasticness> eugman, keep track of the information that make install output and then go remove the files
[12:35] <Msword> i wrote it down than typed it in

[12:36] <kingcobra> SmileyLap: no connection doesnt work yet
[12:36] <Msword> yes that whole thing is a direct quote

[12:37] <Flannel> Msword: So, in the middle of installing?
[12:37] <Uggggg> is anyone here familiar with sh scripts
[12:37] <Msword> yes
[12:37] <crdlb> Uggggg, what are you trying to do?
[12:37] <computermc> I need to install Berkeley DB, what is the package name in synaptic for it?
[12:37] <Jordan_U> Uggggg, Somewhat
[12:37] <Msword> when i'm picking partitions
[12:38] <threeseas> what is an easy way to mount a remote directory?
[12:38] <Msword> and i click next step
[12:38] <Uggggg> how can I link them to a launcher icon?
[12:38] <Msword> or however that is worded
[12:38] <eck> computermc: you should already have it
[12:38] <computermc> eck: ok thanks
[12:38] <Jordan_U> Uggggg, Right click the icon and change the prefs, ( I no longer use Gnome or I would be more specific )
[12:38] <crdlb> Uggggg, make it executable; and either put it in your path or put its full path in the location box
[12:38] <eck> computermc: i think it is just libdb, or something like that
[12:38] <kingcobra> SmileyLap: wmaster0 ieee 802.11g
[12:39] <threeseas> "connect to server" kinda works but won't let me save to it

[12:39] <SmileyLap> ok kingcobra,  ill open a pm with you and you can paste me the whole thing :)
[12:39] <threeseas> I've done this before but don't remember how
[12:39] <Flannel> Msword: oh, so in the partitioner in the liveCD?  interesting.  Ive never seen that before.  You might try the alternate CD, I guess.  This is while you're shrinking your NTFS partitions, right?
[12:39] <soundray> SmileyLap: do you know about pastebin?
[12:39] <eck> computermc: if you need the C headers for it, try libdb-dev
[12:39] <Uggggg> Is it possible to set up multiple scripts to run one after another...
[12:39] <asher> hi everyone
[12:39] <Jordan_U> Uggggg, Also, just in general, remember that sh script != Bash script
[12:39] <SmileyLap> soundray: aye
[12:40] <threeseas> FUSE doesn't provide any option for password
[12:40] <eck> Uggggg: yes, read the bash man page
[12:40] <LordLimecat> someone suggested i install apache2+php+phpmyadmin in order to administer MySQL
[12:40] <soundray> Uggggg: write a script that calls them one after the other
[12:40] <arrenlex> Uggggg: Make the launcher command read "script1 && script2 && script3" ...

[12:40] <LordLimecat> those packages are now installed, now what
[12:40] <LordLimecat> o.0
[12:40] <eck> the man page completely documents bash
[12:40] <crdlb> arrenlex, I don't think gnome-panel will accept that
[12:40] <LordLimecat> how do i...run..phpmyadmin?
[12:40] <Msword> Flannel: I already set the partitions using Gnome Partition Editor, I went to the advanced thing(or however that is worded) and picked the partitions i want them to go to
[12:40] <p47> crdlb:  mmm no I don;t know how can I kill kiba dock ! how can I do that ?
[12:40] <Uggggg> thanks arrenlex.. i will try that!!
[12:40] <threeseas> "connect to server" is slow not fully working
[12:40] <arrenlex> crdlb: It won't? I run kde... sorry, ignore me, then.
[12:41] <arrenlex> Uggggg: I'm told it won't work.
[12:41] <crdlb> p47: killall kiba-dock
[12:41] <Msword> Flannel: did i pick the wrong step there, I just need to be very sure it doesn't overwrite windows, i don't want to reinstall
[12:41] <Uggggg> oh
[12:41] <Uggggg> I have no clue about writing a script though
[12:41] <Uggggg> :c
[12:41] <crdlb> Uggggg, as soundray said I think you need to list them in order in another script
[12:41] <Jordan_U> Msword, Have you tried the alternate install CD?
[12:41] <Msword> no
[12:41] <computermc> what is the path to the berkeley db on ubuntu?
[12:41] <happyface> What can I do to make my USB mouse work?
[12:41] <arrenlex> Uggggg: #!/bin/sh ; script1 && script2 && script3
[12:41] <Jordan_U> Msword, When all else fails it's a good bet
[12:42] <eck> computermc: what do you mean?
[12:42] <Msword> I need someone to go over my partitions, the last guy i talked to said they might be wrong
[12:42] <arrenlex> Uggggg: Where ;  is a newline
[12:42] <DPi1> i'm trying to enable the multiverse repository so that i can install java runtime environment and the documentation tell me to go into software properties but that isn't on the menu
[12:42] <arooni> is there a really good pdf reader?
[12:42] <arooni> like foxit pdf reader
[12:42] <eck> the shared objects are in /usr/lib
[12:42] <computermc> eck: I'm install squidGuard and it says that I don't have it
[12:42] <Jordan_U> arrenlex, NO! ( #! /bin/bash ) I hate bashisms
[12:42] <Msword> who should i msg, this channel has alot of people and is confusing me
[12:42] <eck> computermc: are you trying to compile it?
[12:42] <computermc> eck: yes
[12:42] <arrenlex> Jordan_U: There are bashisms in that?
[12:43] <eck> computermc: then you need the development libraries, libdb-dev
[12:43] <Jordan_U> arrenlex, There might be in script 1 two or three
[12:43] <Flannel> DPi1: it's called different things on different versions.  It'll be something similar though.

[12:44] <BenPA> hi all ... I need help ... my Ubuntu 6.06 box has learned a new trick ... after envoking some wine applications ... my desktop icons disappear ... any clues?

[12:44] <exs> anyone know an alternative to Kino?.. Kino won't import .mpg files
[12:44] <DPi1> no it says for version 6.10 which is what i have
[12:44] <threeseas> !connect to server
[12:44] <Jordan_U> exs, You could convert to DV before editing
[12:45] <exs> Jordan_U:  it tries to convert to dv but then fails
[12:45] <soundray> exs: it sounds like kino isn't the problem, but your mpg or your codecs
[12:45] <_`XeOn_> how do i get more packages in the automatix repos?
[12:45] <DPi1> software properties doesn't appear on my administration menu
[12:45] <Jordan_U> exs, Do you have the correct codecs? You might also try mencoder
[12:46] <eck> !automatix | _`XeOn_
[12:46] <ubotu> _`XeOn_: 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
[12:46] <exs> Jordan_U:  I've got mencoder. the video plays fine in vlc.
[12:46] <arooni> folks is there a really good pdf reader for linux
[12:46] <DPi1> i need it to enable the multiverse repository for JRE
[12:46] <arrenlex> Jordan_U: Everyone has codecs for .mpg.
[12:46] <makuseru> how can i change the default audio track on a .mkv video

[12:46] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.

[12:47] <jacob> how do i install darwin streaming server?
[12:47] <crdlb> p47, look in gconf-editor to make sure it's configuration values are sane
[12:47] <tim167> I have a list of urls in a txt file, one per line, how do i automatically open them in firefox, one per tab ?
[12:47] <ledbettj> man, why is it impossible for me to burn a CD?
[12:47] <arooni> eck: but i cant drag the page donw
[12:48] <Jordan_U> arrenlex, Kino comes with proprietary codecs?
[12:48] <eck> arooni: if you need support for them, you have to use acrobat
[12:48] <PhantomNJ> need help setting up internet radio stations in Listen
[12:48] <eck> arooni: middle click
[12:48] <arrenlex> Jordan_U: .mpg codecs aren't proprietary anymore. The format is so old that free, open-source versions have long been developed and integrated.
[12:48] <tim167> i tried: "cat links.txt | firefox", but that doesnt work...
[12:48] <cogeno> Does anyone know how to properly get an Extigy working?
[12:48] <Jordan_U> arrenlex, Ahh, didn't know that
[12:49] <cogeno> Oh, and when you go to the "Test" in the sound options, is it just supposd to be a long high-pithced hum?
[12:49] <crdlb> tim167, firefox `cat links.txt` maybe
[12:49] <Msword> Flannel you still here?
[12:49] <arrenlex> Jordan_U: It's all these new, closed formats, like wmv, realplayer and quicktime, which companies actively develop and defend, that cause problems.
[12:49] <BenPA> hi all ... I need help ... my Ubuntu 6.06 box has learned a new trick ... after envoking some wine applications ... my desktop icons disappear ... any clues?
[12:49] <soundray> tim167: 'for i in $(cat links.txt) ; do firefox $i & done'
[12:50] <crdlb> soundray, I think you need a semicolon before the done
[12:50] <Jordan_U> arrenlex, And mp3? I know that it is playable with free software but it still is proprietary and not included in Ubuntu by default
[12:50] <soundray> crdlb: no, I don't
[12:51] <Msword> Flannel are you still here?
[12:52] <soundray> crdlb: if I did that, it wouldn't work if no firefox was running to begin with, because the loop would not continue
[12:52] <arrenlex> Jordan_U: afaik it's only mp3 encoders which are subject to fraunhofer royalties, so I don't know what's going on there.
[12:52] <Jordan_U> arrenlex, When I said Proprietary I was referring to the format, not the implementation
[12:52] <crdlb> soundray, in that case, nm
[12:52] <Jordan_U> arrenlex, Does Ubuntu play mpeg from a default install?
[12:52] <eck> i believe that the algorithm used in mp3 is patented, so while it is well known how to implement it, it is not legal to do so without a license
[12:53] <Msword> could someone help me? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8698/
[12:53] <crdlb> Jordan_U, no you need ffmpeg
[12:53] <asher> does anyone here use a toshiba p105?

[12:53] <arrenlex> Jordan_U: Seems so. The decoder is in main.
[12:54] <Flannel> Msword: Er, I really have no idea what the problem might be.  What's the FAT partition for?
[12:54] <arrenlex> !mpeglib | Jordan_U

[12:54] <Exershio> can somebody help me? I used 915resolution to finally get 1152x864 to appear under my list of resolutions, but now when I select it, it makes my screen go blank and cant do anything. I had it working on Windows XP, why is it doing this?
[12:54] <arrenlex> Jordan_U: <insert haven't tried it disclaimer)
[12:54] <eck> BenPA: i don't know how to fix that problem, but you can probably get them back by issuing killall nautilus
[12:54] <soundray> BenPA: it sounds like nautilus has crashed. Restart it in a terminal, and look at that terminal for error messages in case it crashes again
[12:54] <Msword> Flannel: my guide says that so that i can reinstall the system easily
[12:55] <Msword> Flannel: we accualy talked about this in this channel a while ago
[12:55] <Jordan_U> arrenlex, Is optional means not installed by default ( not a dependency of Ubuntu-desktop ) right?
[12:55] <soundray> BenPA: eck is right, try his (her?) suggestion first
[12:55] <Flannel> Msword: What is on that fat partition?
[12:55] <Msword> dell stuff
[12:55] <eck> his :-)
[12:55] <Flannel> Msword: oh, you're putting /home on one partition, and then the OS on the other.  Right.  Sounds good.
[12:55] <Flannel> Msword: dell stuff?
[12:55] <Flannel> Msword: oh, so you didn't touch that FAT partition, it was alreay there?
[12:55] <Msword> dell is who we bought the computer from
[12:55] <Msword> yes
[12:55] <Msword> preinstalled
[12:56] <threeseas> thanks for the help... sometimes its like praying to god, when asking questions here. He ignores you but you figure the answer out yourself anyway
[12:56] <buddy7999> Whats the boderline between the linux kernel and other stuff?

[12:56] <[Marvin] > I hope somebody can help me here - my 'alt' key keeps getting stuck - it happens constantly, even while I'm typing...each time I have to press it to get it unstuck :-/
[12:56] <buddy7999> like drivers are on the kernel side
[12:56] <sean> How can I set up nVidia Twinview to work with 1 LCD and 1 CRT?
[12:57] <eck> buddy7999: the kernel is the stuff in /boot/vmlinuz*, everything else is not the kernel
[12:57] <buddy7999> but things like GUI apps, gnome, kde, etc, are they also inside the kernel?
[12:57] <buddy7999> ah
[12:57] <soundray> eck: modules are in kernel space, though ( buddy7999 )
[12:57] <sean> !twinview
[12:57] <ubotu> xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead
[12:57] <buddy7999> so after a kernel upgrade, can i remove the old kernel
[12:57] <buddy7999> without issues?
[12:57] <kelsin> buddy7999: yes
[12:58] <threeseas> [Marvin] : are you brave enough to take your keyboard apart?
[12:58] <soundray> sean: look at the readme in /usr/share/doc/nvidia-glx/
[12:58] <Flannel> Msword: well, I've never seen that error ebfore, nor does it make too much sense (and I can't find it anywhere).  If I were you, I'd cancel the install, use Gparted to create the partitions (it's on the liveCD), and then run the installer again
[12:58] <eck> and firmware too (i think)
[12:58] <buddy7999> firmware?
[12:58] <Msword> Flannel: so delete the partitions i made
[12:58] <eck> some hardware requires a module + firmware, but it is not something worth worrying about
[12:58] <[Marvin] > thansen: yeah, any particular reason?
[12:58] <arrenlex> Jordan_U: I have no idea what I'm talking about anymore, never ever installed the default ubuntu on anything, don't even run it at the moment, don't really keep up with the news and am not a lawyer, so I'll just shut up now.
[12:58] <Msword> Flannel: resize the windows thing to wat it was
[12:58] <buddy7999> ah
[12:58] <[Marvin] > threeseas even :-p
[12:58] <Flannel> Msword: just cancel.  It hasn't written changes to disk yet, if I understand it.
[12:58] <threeseas> [Marvin] : you might first try to blow the trash out of your keyboard
[12:58] <sean> k ty soundray
[12:58] <Msword> Flannel: then start over with only the installer
[12:59] <Msword> Flannel: cancel then what?
[12:59] <At0mic_PC> So what do people use for P2P now?
[12:59] <nwonknu-> I'll find out
[12:59] <Flannel> Msword: no.  Resize the partitions (in Gparted, not the installer), to their final size.  So in the installer, you don't have to do any repartitioning
[12:59] <Msword> Flannel: the partitions are already set up
[12:59] <arrenlex> At0mic_PC: torrent.
[12:59] <At0mic_PC> I've tried frostwire and amule. Both suck.
[12:59] <n33o> does anyone know if theres any way to watch FLV videos as they are downloading and being loaded to disk.
[12:59] <eck> buddy7999: try looking at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_%28computer_science%29
[12:59] <n33o> ?
[12:59] <n33o> Say from google video for example..
[12:59] <threeseas> [Marvin] : have you spilt and thing on it recently, like sticky cola or coffee with sugar
[12:59] <kelsin> At0mic_PC: you can tru one of the many gnutella clients like gtk-gnutella
[01:00] <arrenlex> n33o: Google video offers you the option to download .avis of the video you're watching.
[01:00] <kelsin> At0mic_PC: (but frostwire uses gnutella so it's the same network, might not like it either)
[01:00] <[Marvin] > threeseas: actually, I haven't spilt anything on it ever - it's a relatively new USB-keyboard
[01:00] <n33o> yeah i know.
[01:00] <n33o> (arrenlex)
[01:00] <Msword> Flannel: I already have everything to the correct size
[01:00] <BenPA> I am using Kunbuntu and it didnt work ... earlier I got an error about KWin
[01:00] <_`XeOn_> if i wanna install kubuntu over ubuntu do i have to reinstall video drivers and evrything else i have done?
[01:00] <n33o> but to save bandwidht
[01:00] <quaal> does anyone know how to solve my black screen after logging out and logging back in problem? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=376047
[01:00] <kingcobra> can anybody help me with basic network problem please
[01:00] <Msword> Flannel: ive just been trying to load the stuff onto the partitions, i don't need to change anything
[01:00] <n33o> im wondering if i could download it .. using a download tool.. but watch it at the same time...
[01:01] <Msword> Flannel: other than loading
[01:01] <kelsin> _`XeOn_: installing kbuntu on ubuntu: sude aptitude install kubuntu-desktop, easy as that
[01:01] <n33o> that can be done with some well known file formats
[01:01] <soundray> BenPA: try #kubuntu
[01:01] <n33o> like realmedia
[01:01] <[Marvin] > threeseas: but I shaked a lot of crap out of it...let's see if it helps...
[01:01] <buddy7999> could i in theory just copy over the kernel of ubuntu over to something else
[01:01] <buddy7999> like fedora core
[01:01] <_`XeOn_> kelsin, but i wanna know if all drivers and stuff ill be lost?
[01:01] <At0mic_PC> kelsin: It wouldn't search for me. Might have been user error. amule searches and finds all kinds of stuff just doesn't download much. Everyone has me in queue.
[01:01] <kelsin> _`XeOn_: nothing is lost, just new programs
[01:01] <Flannel> Msword: This error is a partitioning error, not an installer error.
[01:01] <_`XeOn_> ok
[01:01] <soundray> buddy7999: you can, but don't expect it to work ;)
[01:01] <_`XeOn_> tyvm
[01:01] <kelsin> At0mic_PC: then try gtk-gnutella
[01:01] <Flannel> Msword: can you currently boot into windows successfully?
[01:02] <Msword> Flannel: thats how i am speaking to you now
[01:02] <cafuego_> grrr
[01:02] <kelsin> buddy7999: in theory yes, but the ubuntu kernel has changes made for ubuntu, so no garuntee about anything
[01:02] <At0mic_PC> I've tried gtk-gnutella before. It was ok for me, but my wife hated it. Wasn't easy enough for her.
[01:02] <eck> buddy7999: it will probably work, but since the kernel in ubuntu/fedora core is 99% the same there isn't a good reason to
[01:02] <buddy7999> ah
[01:02] <threeseas> n33o: there is a firefox plugin that make use of another site to get the video. in my experience it seems to save it very fast once you have watched it... like it somehow converts what you have in cache
[01:02] <kelsin> buddy7999: all of the kernels are derived from the kernels at kernel.org, so no reason to, there is no HUGE difference except stuff that could break :)
[01:02] <Flannel> Msword: Interesting.  Ok.  Well, I say try the alternate CD.  You're sure the partitions are already made up?  This is very odd indeed.
[01:02] <Msword> Yes very sure
[01:02] <kingcobra> atomic: can i ask u a q bout my network
[01:03] <buddy7999> so all linux distros are based on a monolithic kernel?
[01:03] <kelsin> yes
[01:03] <Msword> Flannel: is there some way that i can just boot into the partitions using a cd
[01:03] <kelsin> linux is a monolithic kernel
[01:03] <eck> buddy7999: they are all based on the kernel known as "Linux"!
[01:03] <upd> hi
[01:03] <Flannel> Msword: eh?  The partitions are empty.
[01:03] <Msword> Flannel: and just download it straight to the partition?
[01:03] <buddy7999> ;) gotcha
[01:03] <At0mic_PC> kingcobra: Sure.
[01:03] <Msword> Flannel: yes they are 100% empty
[01:03] <Flannel> Msword: So, how would you boot to them?
[01:04] <soundray> buddy7999: if you want a non-monolithic kernel, try Debian GNU/Hurd or Mac OS X
[01:04] <At0mic_PC> kingcobra: Don't know how much help I'll be but I can give it a shot.
[01:04] <Flannel> !minimal | Msword, check this out
[01:04] <ubotu> Msword, check this out: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[01:04] <Msword> Flannel: i don't know, this is the first time ive ever attempted anything like this
[01:04] <ledbettj> Wow, I actually burned a cd that works...a first!  :)
[01:04] <threeseas> [Marvin] : you may be able to pop the key cap off of the sticking key (and snap it back on afterward)
[01:04] <sean> !numlock
[01:04] <ubotu> To enable Number Lock by default, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NumLock
[01:05] <Flannel> Msword: the minimal CD is identical to the alternate CD, except the minimal CD doesn't have packages on it (the alternate does), and will therefore download them all from the interblag during installation
[01:05] <buddy7999> thx all

[01:06] <Msword> Flannel: lol i wish this was as easy as it seemed to be
[01:06] <Flannel> Msword: because they (the minimal/alternate) use an entirely different installation method than the desktop CD
[01:06] <got> configure: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check
[01:06] <kelsin> kingcobra: do you mean it's not finding access points to connect to>?

[01:06] <kingcobra> yes

[01:07] <sean> E: Couldn't find package numlockx
[01:07] <kelsin> kingcobra: does "sudo iwlist eth1 scan" (replacing eth1 with your wireless interface) return results?
[01:07] <sean> ??
[01:07] <Flannel> Msword: It would be... if we had any idea what your error was.  It's a Parted error, which... well, If you're not partitioning, I don't know why it'd be being called
[01:07] <Flannel> Msword: are you tryingto install Edgy? or Dapper?
[01:07] <got> configure: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check\
[01:07] <kingcobra> kelsin: i dont kno if the drivers are working it properly either tho cos the light doesnt flickr like it does using windows
[01:07] <got> what the heck does this mean
[01:07] <eck> got: have you installed build-essential?
[01:07] <Msword> Flannel: which one do you want me to install?
[01:07] <got> ill check thanks
[01:07] <kingcobra> kelsin: 1 sec
[01:08] <threeseas> [Marvin] : sounds like an operation is needed - do you have another keyboard as backup?
[01:08] <soundray> sorry lost connection -- who asked me something about firefox?
[01:08] <Msword> Flannel: The cd i have atm is just the regular old cd with downloading stuff in it
[01:08] <kelsin> kingcobra: lights like that often don't flicker, depening on the driver.
[01:08] <jacob_> hola
[01:08] <matthew1429> who here uses wine regularly
[01:08] <jacob_> i am gonna
[01:08] <kelsin> matthew1429: I do for war3 and wow only
[01:08] <Flannel> Msword: eh?  You have a Desktop (Live) CD, right?
[01:08] <[Marvin] > threeseas: yeah. This one's just my favourite :-p
[01:08] <Msword> Flannel: Yes
[01:08] <sean> i cannot find numlockx :-/
[01:08] <premier_> Im having trouble getting my computer to hibernate
[01:08] <kelsin> matthew1429: it's better to just ask a question in the channel, someone that knows will answer if they can
[01:08] <jacob_> same here
[01:08] <lnostdal> matthew1429, i use it for WoW
[01:08] <Flannel> Msword: right, Which version though?  Dapper or Edgy?  (Or, which version of ubuntu would you like to install?)
[01:08] <got> eck, i did not have it, getting it now
[01:09] <jacob_> its just because i cant controll my power supply's power lol
[01:09] <Msword> Flannel: Whats the difference?
[01:09] <premier_> When i try it, it just get an error, one says that a usb device return -16, and the other is that it cant find the swap device
[01:09] <Flannel> Msword: Dapper is a LTS (supported for 3 years), Edgy isn't (18 months), Dapper has older software, but is more stable.
[01:09] <got> ECK, THANKS A MILLION
[01:10] <kingcobra> can i reply in pm kelsin
[01:10] <n-iCe> My gaim is closing itself !
[01:10] <matthew1429> kelsin: I have a software that works with windows and is time limited... does all of that install to my .wine dir?  in other words is it possible to just erase that dir and reinstall when the time limit goes out?
[01:10] <threeseas> [Marvin] : I've had such keyboard problems and opening them can be a little risky, but if you have patience and no pets to get in the way...some keyboards are easy, just gotta keep the silicon springs in place.
[01:10] <tim167> soundray: i asked about opening a list of links in firefox
[01:10] <Msword> Flannel: I want the more stable one
[01:10] <Msword> Flannel: so dapper
[01:10] <n-iCe> !beryl
[01:10] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[01:10] <soundray> tim167: oh yeah
[01:10] <arooni> how do i get a newer version of subversion
[01:10] <Flannel> Msword: alright, then download the dapper alternate CD
[01:10] <arooni> i need 1.4 >
[01:10] <kelsin> matthew1429: it depends, a lot of time limits (like macromedia's crappy stuff) writes stuff into spare space in your hard drivers boot record and stuff like that, it might be, it might not be, all depends
[01:10] <soundray> tim167: try adding the --new-tab option before the URL
[01:10] <exs> I'm trying to submit my video to youtube but it's too big. is there an easy way to make it smaller?
[01:11] <kingcobra> kelsin: can i reply in pm
[01:11] <Flannel> arooni: 1.4 will be in Feisty
[01:11] <Msword> Flannel: i realy hope this works, this is a pain lol
[01:11] <soundray> tim167: sorry it's -new-tab (one dash)
[01:11] <premier_> can someone help me get my computer to hibernate?
[01:11] <got> eck thanks that worked!
[01:11] <eck> exs: google 'mencoder'
[01:11] <arooni> Flannel: i get this erroR: svn: This client is too old to work with working copy '.'; please get a newer Subversion client
[01:11] <eck> got: np
[01:11] <arooni> Flannel: how do i fix this
[01:11] <matthew1429> kelsin: is there a way around that?
[01:11] <exs> eck:  and after i've got mencoder, what do I do?
[01:11] <[Marvin] > threeseas: I'm pretty confident that I can take this one apart and reassemble it...but what would I do - just clean it?
[01:11] <kelsin> kingcobra: if you want, the channel might help others, you won't want to repeat yourself if someone else has to help after
[01:11] <matthew1429> kelsin: if it does do the boot mgr?
[01:12] <kingcobra> ok ill talk here np
[01:12] <tim167> soundray: perfect! :)
[01:12] <threeseas> [Marvin] : one keyboard I had I determined the problem was the connection with the ribbion cable to the small curcuit. - so you'd just have to see what you can find that causing the problem
[01:12] <kelsin> matthew1429: all depends on the software, no way to say without knowning exactly what the software does to handle it's time stuff... which you can't unless it's open
[01:12] <Flannel> arooni: Looks like that error is if you use svn1.4 on that working copy, and then go back to an older version
[01:12] <soundray> tim167 :)
[01:12] <eck> exs: it is a video encoder using the same backend as mplayer, but to use it is kind of complicated; search for a howto online (or in the forums)
[01:12] <kelsin> matthew1429: ussually not
[01:12] <matthew1429> :(
[01:12] <arooni> Flannel: huH?  i need svn 1.4
[01:12] <arooni> how do i get it
[01:12] <kingcobra> kelsin: interface doesnt support scanning : network is down
[01:12] <tim167> soundray: btw, works with --new-tab too here
[01:12] <Flannel> arooni: you upgrade to Feisty
[01:13] <Flannel> arooni: or build it yourself
[01:13] <kelsin> kingcobra: you sure you were doing the right interface (might not be eth1 for you)
[01:13] <Flannel> arooni: I'd try checking out again.  Make a new working copy.
[01:13] <arooni> Flannel: i have ubuntu 6.10
[01:13] <eck> exs: you might try this one http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Mencoder_Introduction_Guide
[01:13] <arooni> Flannel: so what should id o (its my second day with linux)
[01:13] <exs> eck:  thanks
[01:13] <threeseas> [Marvin] : I was able to fix the connection with scotch tape to build up a keyboard case pressure point when closed
[01:14] <Flannel> arooni: check out a new working copy.
[01:14] <Flannel> arooni: see if that fixes it.
[01:14] <At0mic_P1> gtk-gnutella doesn't seem to do anything...
[01:14] <[Marvin] > threeseas: hmm, well I don't know...I've only had the problem while using Ubuntu - it's somewhat intermittent, but hasn't happened to me in a console or in Windows...
[01:14] <_`XeOn_> if i install kubuntu the whole system change?
[01:14] <kingcobra> kelsin: i hav 2 wireless interfaces wlan0 and wmaster0
[01:14] <Flannel> _`XeOn_: You'll have Ubuntu and Kubuntu installed
[01:14] <kingcobra> kelsin: wlan0 gave last msg
[01:15] <_`XeOn_> hmm sounds weird
[01:15] <kelsin> kingcobra: what type of card is it?
[01:15] <arooni> if i need to run 4 lines of command line stuff at a tmie
[01:15] <arooni> how can i do this?
[01:15] <Flannel> _`XeOn_: you'll be able to choose between them at GDM/KDM (the login screen)
[01:15] <kingcobra> kelsin: wmaster0 says interface doesnt support scanning : operation not supported
[01:15] <_`XeOn_> oh ok i got it now
[01:15] <Moniker42> hey could someone give me a hand getting grub installed and ubuntu working again after i installed xp?
[01:15] <shadowhywind> hay i am having issues with my external monitor. All i get is just a bunch of color can anyone help
[01:15] <soundray> arooni: combine commands on a line with ;
[01:15] <threeseas> [Marvin] : In that case I'd switch keyboards for a while to verify it to be not the keyboard - but somehow I doubt its the software
[01:15] <Flannel> arooni: command1 && command2 && command3 && command4 (that'll run the subsequent command only if the former ones succeed), or use ; to run unconditionally
[01:15] <wrox> arooni: is that a catch? 4 lines or 4 commands ?
[01:16] <_`XeOn_> any1 have americas army installed?
[01:16] <wrox> :)
[01:16] <arooni> ahh 4 lines
[01:16] <arooni> i mean
[01:16] <arooni> 4 lines && 4 commands
[01:16] <arooni> :P
[01:16] <wrox> arooni: to continue typing on the next line use \
[01:16] <[Marvin] > threeseas: right...I should really have done that myself before I came here - but thanks for the help though :-p
[01:16] <exs> I'm surprised the only way to convert video down is using command lines. Does anyone know a backend for mencoder that is GUI and simple??
[01:16] <arooni> how do i go to the beginning of a termianl line
[01:17] <arooni> wiothout having to hit the left arrow key a bunch of tmies
[01:17] <kingcobra> kelsin: its a cable and wireless wireless usb adaptor
[01:17] <soundray> arooni: Ctl-A
[01:17] <joshjosh> shift-tab maybe?
[01:17] <joshjosh> hheh. i was way off
[01:17] <kelsin> kingcobra: what driver does it use?
[01:17] <soundray> arooni: or the Home key if you have one
[01:17] <eck> exs: there are some frontends listed at the end of the article
[01:17] <Exershio> can somebody help me? I used 915resolution to finally get 1152x864 to appear under my list of resolutions, but now when I select it, it makes my screen go blank and cant do anything. I had it working on Windows XP, why is it doing this?
[01:18] <_`XeOn_> whats the keyboard combination to switch applications?
[01:18] <Flannel> arooni: You don't need 1.4, I don't know why you're getting that error, but you should be perfectly fine using an older version on that working copy, provied you haven't used 1.4 on it.
[01:18] <threeseas> exs: I don't know but suspect that a distro like dyne:bolic (runs live would have the tools included that you are looking for
[01:18] <soundray> _`XeOn_: Alt-Tab
[01:18] <_`XeOn_> :)
[01:18] <Flannel> arooni: Or rather, start a new working copy (using 1.3, in Edgy), and you'll be fine.
[01:18] <_`XeOn_> i tho was for win only
[01:18] <arrenlex> exs: (Sorry if someone already gave you this link) http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/projects.html#mencoder_frontends
[01:18] <Regner> how can i fully remove something through apt ? I tried to uninstall something but its still there
[01:18] <kingcobra> kelsin: i dont know
[01:19] <exs> thanks arrenlex, threeseas
[01:19] <sean> Why can't I get numlockx?
[01:19] <^BiplanE^> hi all
[01:19] <foormea> hi, am i supposed to suid root cdrecord, or launch it as root? i've just tried to blank a CDRW, and it freezed...
[01:19] <soundray> Regner: to remove a package *and* its config files, use 'sudo apt-get --purge remove packagename'
[01:19] <kingcobra> kelsin: ubuntu recognised it automatically
[01:19] <Regner> soundray: thank you I will try that
[01:19] <sean> Why can't I apt-get numlockx?
[01:19] <kelsin> kingcobra: what brand of card is it?
[01:20] <kingcobra> cable and wireless
[01:20] <Flannel> sean: it's in universe, so it's likely you haven't enabled universe yet
[01:20] <^BiplanE^> Are there official banners of ubuntu for my blog?
[01:20] <_`XeOn_> does any1 have americas army installed or call of duty?
[01:20] <soundray> sean: enable the appropriate repository
[01:20] <Msword> Flannel: I dl'd it and i'm gonna go try it now
[01:20] <sean> how would I do that?
[01:20] <soundray> !repos > sean, read ubotu's private message
[01:21] <arrenlex> exs: Although the command line is really quite easy once you get the hang of it. mencoder -ovc lavc -oav lavc -lavcopts vbitrate=<video bitrate>:abitrate=<audio bitrate>:vhq <input.avi> -o <output.avi>
[01:21] <Regner> soundray: all i get when i do that is "E: Invalid operation mythtv"
[01:21] <soundray> !software > sean
[01:21] <kingcobra> kelsin: cable and wireless
[01:21] <arrenlex> exs, sorry, oav should be oac
[01:21] <soundray> Regner: you forgot the "remove" keyword
[01:21] <exs> arrenlex:  nah, too complex for me
[01:21] <sean> Can't you just give me a command? :P
[01:21] <Regner> soundray: .... well then.
[01:21] <arrenlex> exs: But I wrote the whole command except for places to stick numbers and the file. xD
[01:22] <Flannel> sean: it's not a command, but a series of steps.
[01:22] <Regner> thank you
[01:22] <sean> ah, k
[01:22] <Flannel> sean: the link ubotu sent you has instructions
[01:22] <sean> yeah, ty
[01:22] <soundray> sean: no, you have to read this. This is essential stuff if you want even just moderate success with Ubuntu
[01:23] <light_> debian unstable is faster and more updated then ubuntu edjy?
[01:23] <sean> I understand the concepts of repositories and such...
[01:23] <kelsin> kingcobra: I know nothing about that brand. It's definately not a network-manager problem since iwconfig is not getting any information from it. It sounds like a driver issue to me. The best bet is to google and bit and make sure ubuntu is using the right drivers. If they are install them or look into using ndiswrapper for it (with windows drivers). I have never used ndiswrapper though
[01:23] <light_> edgy*
[01:23] <kelsin> light_: debian unstable is a moving target, it isn't a "release"
[01:23] <Flannel> light_: Edgy is frozen (it won't ever get new versions), Debian unstable is one long rolling upgrade
[01:23] <arrenlex> light_: I typically find that debian unstable (sid) has newer versions of things than feisty does. Speed is subjective.
[01:23] <kelsin> light_: edgy is kindof like a "snapshot" of debian unstable when edgy came out
[01:23] <kelsin> light_: but with many changes for ubuntu of course
[01:24] <exeakiel> How do I use .sh files?
[01:24] <HumpBack> Hello, is there a file in ubuntu where we can put the name of modules we want to be loaded at boot time?
[01:24] <quaal> does anyone know how to solve my black screen after logging out and logging back in problem? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=376047
[01:24] <soundray> exeakiel: you don't if you can at all avoid it.
[01:24] <ledbettj> HumpBack:  /etc/modules
[01:24] <soundray> exeakiel: what are you trying to do?
[01:24] <kingcobra> kelsin: how do i check what drivers ubuntu is using at the moment
[01:24] <HumpBack> ledbettj: thanks
[01:25] <light_> kelsin: arrenlex Flannel thank you
[01:25] <kelsin> kingcobra: I honestly don't know. the command "sudo lsmod" will show you what drivers are loaded, connecting them to what they are used for can be harder
[01:25] <sean> Flannel: the these instructions are for Dapper, not Edgy :-/

[01:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about monitor - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:25] <lnxmomo> where can i find information on the future release of ubuntu and what it will include
[01:25] <ubotu> K3nto: xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead

[01:26] <Flannel> sean: Same method (although I think the text on the menu item is slightly different)
[01:26] <lilrayray> how do you change the network settings (like choosing the SSID) from the command line?
[01:26] <kelsin> lnxmomo: there are more general docs too, but if you goto packages.ubuntu.com you can search for packages in fiesty and see what version they are
[01:26] <kelsin> lilrayray: the iwconfig program
[01:26] <^BiplanE^> Are there official banners of ubuntu for my blog?
[01:26] <light_> where can i see the differences between debian and ubuntu?
[01:26] <ledbettj> lilrayray: sudo iwconfig interface_name essid <value>
[01:27] <IndyGunFreak> light_: osdir.org
[01:27] <ledbettj> like, sudo iwconfig ath0 essid "linksys"
[01:27] <sean> Flannel: It says I already have Universe selected..
[01:27] <arrenlex> !debian | light_
[01:27] <ubotu> light_: Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu!
[01:27] <kelsin> light_: googling "debian vs ubuntu" might be a start, there isn't one place to see EVERY difference
[01:27] <lilrayray> ledbettj, what would I enter if my ssid is "michael"?
[01:27] <Flannel> sean: alright, assuming you do, go back and see if numlockx is there
[01:27] <jacob> anyone familiar with streaming?
[01:27] <light_> IndyGunFreak: arrenlex kelsin thank you
[01:27] <kelsin> ^BiplanE^: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WebsiteButtons

[01:28] <Flannel> sean: pastebin your sources.list (it's /etc/apt/sources.list)
[01:28] <IndyGunFreak> soundray: how come you always PM bot info?  what if they have PM's off?
[01:28] <wmealing_> can someone tell me if the RH directory server is available on ubuntu's repos ?
[01:28] <soundray> houmala: temporarily or forever?
[01:28] <sean> !pastebin
[01:28] <ikitat> I have to do a breezy to dapper upgrade remotely.  The breezy install is a server so it doesn't have a desktop environment (it has ubuntu_minimal and ubuntu_standard).  The DapperUpgrade wiki page says that the desktop environment is essential.
[01:28] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[01:28] <sean> :P
[01:28] <sean> ah k
[01:28] <houmala> for good till reboot

[01:29] <Flannel> ikitat: only if you're running a desktop environment
[01:29] <ikitat> I'm 2 hours away from this server, but I need to upgrade it soon... should I be worried?
[01:29] <ikitat> ok
[01:29] <soundray> IndyGunFreak: reduces noise
[01:29] <IndyGunFreak> soundray: lol, wasn't accusing you of botabuse
[01:29] <Flannel> ikitat: (lots of people have removed ubuntu-desktop to remove some component, needs to be reinstalled to upgrade)
[01:29] <lilrayray> ledbettj, I am confused, what goes inplace of <value>?
[01:29] <n-iCe> IndyGunFreak:  !
[01:29] <n-iCe> Hii
[01:29] <ikitat> I've always pulled off the debian upgrades without a hitch
[01:29] <IndyGunFreak> soundray: oh ok.. i
[01:29] <n-iCe> I change to ubuntu now :)
[01:29] <n-iCe> changed
[01:29] <bimberi> ikitat: that's referring to desktop installs.  you dont' need it for what you're doing.
[01:29] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: hey
[01:29] <kelsin> lilrayray: your essid, you should read the iwconfig manual for more information
[01:29] <Flannel> ikitat: if you have no desktop metapackage, it doesn't matter, at all.  Just change sources.list and dist upgrade
[01:29] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: what ended up being the problem yesterday?
[01:29] <soundray> IndyGunFreak: I also take care to tell people what I'm doing, so they know what to look for
[01:30] <ikitat> great
[01:30] <kronus_> hello all
[01:30] <IndyGunFreak> soundray: no sweat, i was just curioius why you did that.
[01:30] <ikitat> does aptitude provide an advantage over apt-get?
[01:30] <n-iCe> IndyGunFreak:  well i changed to ubuntu then... is ok now
[01:30] <sean> Flannel: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8707/
[01:30] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: what was you're problem yesterday, i remember talking to you though
[01:30] <n-iCe> ABout the icons
[01:30] <arrenlex> ikitat: No.
[01:30] <n-iCe> how to put it in the panel
[01:30] <soundray> IndyGunFreak: I only saw this goodbotuse entry a couple of days ago, and it made sense to me, so I started getting into the habit.
[01:30] <n-iCe> or in desktop
[01:31] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: thats right... well that wasn't that big a deal, no real need to switch OS's over that..lol
[01:31] <n-iCe> =p
[01:31] <bimberi> ikitat: not since Edgy (6.10) where apt-get got 'autoremove' capabilities.
[01:31] <n-iCe> now i'm thinking in compiz
[01:31] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: i thought you mentioned your PC was slow?
[01:31] <Flannel> sean: looks like you do, yes.  so, 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install numlockx'
[01:31] <_`XeOn_> man im getting mad i spend 10 hours a day installing uninstalling testing this testing that and never get what i want working
[01:31] <n-iCe> IndyGunFreak:  well this one no, the other one in my room yes.
[01:31] <n-iCe> why ?
[01:31] <ikitat> ok.... my goal is to go from breezy to dapper to edgy tonight
[01:31] <n-iCe> what distro i should install in my slow pc ?

[01:32] <arrenlex> soundray: Actually, I don't like it. Unregistered users will try to talk to ubotu and be frustrated that he is not replying (since they can't send PMs). Furthermore, having ubotu answer in the channel lets other users see the responses, and they learn things. Furthermore, helpers read ubotu's responses and make mental notes to use factoids to help people in the future.

[01:32] <ikitat> I had to install breezy a couple of weeks before dapper became stable :/
[01:32] <Odd_Bloke> n-iCe: As you're in a Ubuntu channel, I suggest Xubuntu.
[01:32] <n-iCe> Odd_Bloke:  but work slower than windows
[01:32] <Odd_Bloke> n-iCe: What does?
[01:32] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: isn't compiz, beryl?
[01:32] <houmala> what driver for a geforce 7600GS in ubuntu??
[01:32] <arrenlex> IndyGunFreak: Compiz != beryl
[01:33] <bimberi> ikitat: i've kept my server at Dapper (because it's an Long Term Support release).  Something to consider unless you need up-to-the-minute config
[01:33] <n-iCe> IndyGunFreak:  moreless
[01:33] <IndyGunFreak> arrenlex: thats what i thought.
[01:33] <Flannel> ikitat: er, why to edgy?  Version of something you want?
[01:33] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: just make sure you've got pretty good resources
[01:33] <DigitalNinja> houmala: the nvidia driver
[01:33] <n-iCe> here i have
[01:33] <Odd_Bloke> n-iCe: If you want something crazily cut-down, Damn Small Linux perhaps. :p
[01:33] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: what type of video card
[01:33] <houmala> i know nvidia but where or which?
[01:33] <n-iCe> Odd_Bloke:  i already try it, but my usb wireless adpater doesn't work there.
[01:33] <n-iCe> why? i don't know
[01:33] <premier_> I cant get my computer to hibernate, and it wont wake from suspend; I have to restart it
[01:33] <K3nto> !twinview
[01:33] <fjardt> If I just installed a KDE application, but how can I remove not only the application and all KDE things that were required for it?
[01:33] <DigitalNinja> houmala: They honly have one driver.

[01:33] <sean> Flannel: <3
[01:33] <Regner> so i tried apt-get remove --purge mythtv, but its all still there, mythtv and mythtvbackend and the setup and all of it. How do i get rid of it so i can reinstall it from scratch
[01:34] <houmala> hummm..
[01:34] <Odd_Bloke> n-iCe: Have you tried Xubuntu or not, I missed your reply in the spaff.
[01:34] <Flannel> sean: after you change sources.list, you need to update the package cache (that was the first command) to get the changes
[01:34] <ikitat> Flannel bimberi, I could just stop at dapper
[01:34] <DigitalNinja> houmala: you need to make sure your sources.lst is setup to get it thought
[01:34] <IndyGunFreak> Regner: what i ended up doing, was goign to synaptic, and removing one package at a time.. then removing the core package last
[01:34] <n-iCe> Odd_Bloke:  yeah work slow , slower than windows xp
[01:34] <ikitat> I have no reason to go to edgy
[01:34] <houmala> using default list that came with ubuntu
[01:34] <sean> Flannel: thanks
[01:34] <bimberi> ikitat: good idea, unless you really need a later version of something :)
[01:34] <Flannel> ikitat: Unless there's a version of something you absolutely need, there's no real need to upgrade to Edgy for a server, especially.
[01:34] <lilrayray> does safe mode have network access?
[01:34] <IndyGunFreak> ikitat: what do you use now?
[01:34] <bimberi> Flannel: :)
[01:35] <ikitat> ok.. one more question.. how can I determine which apps I installed as backports?
[01:35] <arooni> what progeram will open visio files on my computer?
[01:35] <houmala> uncommented all in list
[01:35] <Regner> IndyGunFreak: i dont have X server installed
[01:35] <Odd_Bloke> n-iCe: How slow is this PC?
[01:35] <fjardt> If I just installed a KDE application, but how can I remove not only the application and all KDE things that were required for it?
[01:35] <DigitalNinja> houmala: That should work. now "apt-get update"
[01:35] <n-iCe> well Odd_Bloke isn't, in windows works fine... but i don't know why in xubuntu doesn't
[01:35] <ikitat> IndyGunFreek breezy
[01:36] <houmala> ok sudo apt-get install ?????
[01:36] <IndyGunFreak> Odd_Bloke: i think he had some other issues than just the slow pC
[01:36] <kelsin> fjardt: when you remove the package you installed it should remove everything else that wasn't brought it by you also
[01:36] <MukiEX> Anyone know how to eject the livecd temporarily to burn something with k3b?
[01:36] <bimberi> fjardt: sudo apt-get autoremove <package>
[01:36] <IndyGunFreak> MukiEX: i'm not sure you can.
[01:36] <Odd_Bloke> IndyGunFreak: Ah, right.
[01:36] <n-iCe> so?
[01:36] <DigitalNinja> houmala: use Synaptic to search for "nvidia"
[01:36] <TridenT_Boy3555> Need help
[01:36] <TridenT_Boy3555> anyone wanna?
[01:37] <houmala> ok synaptic

[01:37] <DigitalNinja> houmala: You could use apt-get but I don't remember what the package is called
[01:37] <wmealing_> My ubuntu box is off and many miles away.
[01:37] <kelsin> wmealing_: you can search on packages.ubuntu.com
[01:37] <zoidberg> hey guys

[01:37] <zoidberg> i have a qeustion
[01:38] <zoidberg> can anyone help me
[01:38] <wolfspirit> you have to ask the question first
[01:38] <IndyGunFreak> !anyone | zoidberg
[01:38] <ubotu> zoidberg: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[01:38] <zoidberg> ?
[01:38] <houmala> will try nividia ( non free ???)
[01:38] <n-iCe> IndyGunFreak:  install linux in my slwo pc

[01:38] <kelsin> wmealing_: np
[01:38] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: well, what was the issue, it was wireless wouldnt' work, right?
[01:38] <lilrayray> does anyone know if safemode has network access?
[01:38] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: Works for me
[01:38] <n-iCe> IndyGunFreak:  jusy in ubuntu xubuntu work
[01:38] <n-iCe> just
[01:39] <defendguin> DigitalNinja: all i get it a black box
[01:39] <premier_> can anybody help me with hibernation?  I think my computer cant find the swap partition
[01:39] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: What are you trying to watch
[01:39] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: so wireless worked in Ubuntu, but not in Ubuntu?
[01:39] <defendguin> http://www.nba.com/hornets/  DigitalNinja try any video
[01:39] <IndyGunFreak> i mean it dind't work in Xubuntu
[01:39] <wolfspirit> I'm new to ubuntu (just came over from fedora)... and I was wondering.. is 2.6.17 really the newest kernel in the main repositories or do I not have all of them set up correctly
[01:39] <Odd_Bloke> n-iCe: What type of graphics card does this PC have?
[01:39] <n-iCe> IndyGunFreak:  works in ubuntu and in xubuntu but both works slow in my pc
[01:40] <lilrayray> Does safemode have netwrok access???
[01:40] <kelsin> wolfspirit: depends on what release of ubuntu you're using
[01:40] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: thats right, you were getting connected, but it was real slow.
[01:40] <wolfspirit> kelsin: edgy
[01:40] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: going there now
[01:40] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: i wish i could help you, but i know squat about wireless
[01:40] <Odd_Bloke> lilrayray: Ubuntu safe mode? Why not just start it and find out?
[01:41] <kelsin> wolfspirit: then yes
[01:41] <n-iCe> np
[01:41] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: it's loading
[01:41] <n-iCe> where can i downlaod the last amsn version ?
[01:41] <defendguin> DigitalNinja: you using the mplayer plugin?
[01:41] <n-iCe> sudo apt-get install amsn
[01:41] <lilrayray> Odd_Bloke: I am in it now, and I cant seem to get my wirless adapter working, so I was wondering if anyone knew whether safemode was the problem
[01:41] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: I'm on a slow connection at the moment so it may take a while
[01:41] <n-iCe> should install the lastest version ?
[01:41] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: I think so

[01:42] <slylyias> Hi, I'm using ubuntu on my new x86-64 computer, and I'm trying to ssh in to a remote unix cluster and run things like emacs and ddd there. However I can't seem to get a graphical interface. What do I need to do?
[01:42] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: Yup! Mplayer plugin.
[01:42] <Odd_Bloke> lilrayray: Why can't you boot into normal mode?
[01:42] <defendguin> DigitalNinja: ubuntu installs the totem plugin by default
[01:42] <kelsin> slylyias: you said you're sshing in but want a graphical interface, can you be more specific?
[01:42] <defendguin> the mplayer plugin does work and i have used it in the past
[01:42] <slylyias> I'm typing ssh <server address>
[01:42] <DPic> my screensaver doesn't work
[01:43] <lilrayray> Odd_Bloke: Because I cant start X in 6.10 without the NVidia drivers installed, and to install them I need internet access
[01:43] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: You can use synaptic to install the mplayer plugin
[01:43] <K3nto> hey guys. i got my second monitor to work , but the laptop screen is balck
[01:43] <K3nto> or off
[01:43] <wolfspirit> kelsin: edgy is the newest one other than fiesty (which is not released yet) right?
[01:43] <arrenlex> wolfspirit: y
[01:43] <kelsin> slylyias: yes that gives you a text connection, that's all ssh does by default. do you want a remote desktop type of thing, or do you want to be able to run a remote graphical app and have it show up on your desktop?
[01:44] <slylyias> I want to run a remote graphical app and have it show up on your desktop.
[01:44] <nisq_57> #foss
[01:44] <Odd_Bloke> lilrayray: Just use the CLI?
[01:44] <lilrayray> Odd_Bloke: how?
[01:44] <TruVisionary> how do u change the Alt tab command to cube in compiz?
[01:44] <wolfspirit> is there an easy direct update path for edgy to fiesty using apt-get or dpkg?  I know with yum you just change the release level and then say update and it goes to the newest version..
[01:45] <Darth_Tux> is this a safe repository ?  deb http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/repo/ edgy free
[01:45] <kelsin> slylyias: as long as the remote server has it enabled, edit your /etc/ssh/ssh_config file (sudo gedit /etc/ssh/ssh_config) and make sure you change the two lines about ForwardX11 to uncommented and "yes"
[01:45] <Odd_Bloke> lilrayray: What happens when you boot into normal mode?
[01:45] <techie> Good evening. Can anybody tell me how to make my Totem movie player read my cdrom?
[01:45] <IndyGunFreak> techie: like DVD's
[01:45] <lilrayray> Odd_Bloke: I get an Xserver error: "No Screens Found"
[01:45] <IndyGunFreak> ?
[01:45] <TruVisionary> techie, I think you have to download the codec
[01:45] <kelsin> slylyias: (if you have access to the remote server there is an option in their /etc/ssh/sshd_config file to do the same, that has to be enabled)
[01:45] <slylyias> Thank you Kelsin.
[01:45] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: I think my internet connection is to slow for video. It's still down loading
[01:45] <Odd_Bloke> lilrayray: Then what?
[01:45] <techie> yes
[01:45] <IndyGunFreak> !dvd
[01:45] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[01:46] <russe11> I installed the Adobe Reader and plugin for firefox (with apt), but now if I use apt to remove it, I get error messages in firefox when clicking on pdf links, rather than being prompted to download the pdf file (what I want.) What can I do?
[01:46] <kelsin> slylyias: it "should" work if both the server and your client have their config files to say it is
[01:46] <lilrayray> Odd_Bloke: Then nothing happens and I have to reboot
[01:46] <techie> it says it does not have the URI installed?
[01:46] <IndyGunFreak> techie: hang on a sec.
[01:46] <slylyias> Kelsin: Define access, hehe. There is 'can change it' and 'supposed to have access to that account'. :P
[01:46] <DigitalNinja> TruVisionary: What's the story on "compiz"? I'm using Beryl on my main workstation.
[01:46] <techie> IndyGunFreak> thanks in advance
[01:46] <kelsin> russe11: goto preferences and the Content tab and change what firefox does with pdfs
[01:46] <Odd_Bloke> lilrayray: Try using Ctrl-Alt-F1 (or other F-key).
[01:46] <slylyias> Thank you for the help kelsin.
[01:46] <jacob_> can someone help me download and install darwin streaming server
[01:46] <lilrayray> ok, I will
[01:46] <kelsin> slylyias: if you don't have root access on the machine you probably can change it's sshd settings
[01:47] <IndyGunFreak> techie:  http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy#How_to_install_DVD_playback_capability
[01:47] <Odd_Bloke> lilrayray: You should get a login prompt, at which point you can follow instructions to install NVidia drivers from the command line.
[01:47] <mEck0> I have an HP Pavilion DV6184ea and wonder how I can fix the battery monitor "power manager v2.16.1" in gnome? It does not show me the right % left of my battery and not the right time left :/ this works fine in Windows :/
[01:47] <techie> Truvisonary how do you go there an enable. through terminal?
[01:47] <Odd_Bloke> lilrayray: Which I suggest you print/copy out ahead of time.
[01:47] <slylyias> I don't have the root password, but I found a really badly coded script that uses root prims that I can abuse to get a terminal console as root. :P
[01:47] <russe11> kelsin: That doesn't seem like the cleanest solution, because it still thinks I have the acrobat reader plugin.
[01:48] <islan> ghar!  the latest update for firefox has left it buggy as hell
[01:49] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: I have video
[01:49] <kelsin> russe11: does it only think that cause pdf's are still supposed to use it to open? once you change it to open pdf's with another program what types of plugin errors are you getting?
[01:49] <DigitalNinja> ??
[01:49] <defendguin> DigitalNinja: but why isn't mplayer included by default instead of totem.  totem doesn't work at all
[01:50] <MatrixMon> Can anyone tell where I can find a list of new viruses?
[01:50] <Odd_Bloke> MatrixMon: New viruses for what?
[01:50] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: Totme doesn't come with the codec to play anything
[01:50] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: The codecs for Totem and Mplayer arn't free
[01:50] <defendguin> DigitalNinja: they have a codec pack for that
[01:50] <DigitalNinja> or open
[01:50] <TruVisionary> DigitalNinja: I don't know much but I think that they both have basically the same effects but beryl is much more powerful or sumthin
[01:51] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: I don't know how Totem works
[01:51] <DigitalNinja> TruVisionary: Cool!
[01:51] <DigitalNinja> TruVisionary: I'll stay on Beryl
[01:51] <kelsin> defendguin: totem uses the gstreamer plugsin, if you enable all the repositories and then install all of the gstreamerplugin packages you can find, tomem will probably surprise you
[01:51] <|omegabeta|> Can anyone suggest a music player like amarok for gnome? that is "not" rythmbox
[01:51] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: Hold on
[01:51] <Beverage> hey folks, I have a question, what should the permissions be on the /var/www folder so that it doesnt give you permission denied on the localhost url
[01:51] <islan> I find totem a little on the buggy side
[01:51] <|omegabeta|> something like songbird
[01:51] <Odd_Bloke> TruVisionary, DigitalNinja: Beryl is a fork of the Compiz project, but seems to be favoured by most people...
[01:51] <kelsin> |omegabeta|: mpd with sonata, listen, banshee, exaile
[01:51] <MatrixMon> Winblows
[01:51] <MatrixMon> Xp
[01:51] <wolfspirit> Beverage: apache
[01:52] <Odd_Bloke> MatrixMon: Why are you asking in #_ubuntu_?
[01:52] <IndyGunFreak> Odd_Bloke: lol
[01:52] <DigitalNinja> Odd_Bloke: I see
[01:52] <wolfspirit> Beverage: but what you see in the url should actually be /var/www/html
[01:52] <Beverage> wolfspirit, i have it installed, but i changed the permissions so i could work in that folder openly
[01:52] <Odd_Bloke> |omegabeta|: You could look into mpd. Oh, poned by kelsin, I see. :p
[01:52] <slylyias> kelsin: I don't seem to have gedit on the computer.
[01:52] <TruVisionary> I'm gonna stick with compiz anyway
[01:52] <|omegabeta|> Beryl is great.. WoW on one screen, thottbott on the other
[01:53] <TruVisionary> but how do I install the themes for it?
[01:53] <slylyias> kelsin: Sudo: gedit: command not found"
[01:53] <|omegabeta|> emereld theme manager
[01:53] <kelsin> slylyias: you can install it with "sudo aptitude install gedit" then
[01:53] <DigitalNinja> | omegabeta |: what is "thottbott
[01:53] <exeakiel> How do I get NVIDIA drivers?
[01:53] <kelsin> |omegabeta|: I used to fade out wow to see thotbot behind it :)
[01:53] <DigitalNinja> |omegabetta|
[01:53] <wolfspirit> |omegabeta|: I agree
[01:53] <slylyias> I use KDE, is gedit a gnome thing?
[01:53] <TruVisionary> where would I get that emerald theme manager?
[01:54] <DigitalNinja> what is thotbot?
[01:54] <wolfspirit> slylyias: yes
[01:54] <Odd_Bloke> TruVisionary: It's in repos.
[01:54] <slylyias> IS there a KDE thing.
[01:54] <riqz> hiya peeps
[01:54] <TruVisionary> Odd_Bloke: "repos"?
[01:54] <russe11> kelsin: I don't get any errors, but it still offers the plugin (that should have been uninstalled) as an option for PDF files that bothers me.
[01:54] <riqz> listen any one of u know of a good rss feed reader for ubuntu?
[01:54] <slylyias> is there a kde text editor I can envoke?

Am new to Linux and Ubuntu - trying to install Beryl at the moment but having followed the instructions in http://wiki.beryl-project.org/index.php/Install/Ubuntu/Edgy/XGL then I've just rebooted and Ubuntu seems horribly slow now (and Beryl not running) - I can see the screen redrawing slowly
[01:55] <kelsin> russe11: I honestly don't know how to remove that :-(
[01:55] <arrenlex> slylyias: kwrite

[01:57] <kelsin> techie: look into Inkscape or Scribus, I prefer Inkscape, I think there are some others, but I use Inkscape for any type of layout work
i got sidetrack and wrote down the page, but probably will need to get more info this is now my third day using Ubuntu.
[01:58] <redhat_> islan sudo chown -R 777 /var/www doesnt work. Cant i log in as root to do theese things?
[01:58] <Odd_Bloke> duncan_: I think it's going to be exciting getting it to work on that. Are you using the binary drivers?
[01:58] <techie> Kelsin thanks.
[01:58] <IndyGunFreak> techie: the page is pretty clear
[01:58] <islan> redhat_, not in ubuntu, you just have sudo
[01:58] <akinari42> hi
[01:59] <islan> redhat_, of course you can just use sudo for all of your commands
[01:59] <inpho> how can i detect my usb external harddrive on my ubuntu install?
[01:59] <techie> INdyGunFreak I had downloaded stuff from there and put in the terminal this morning but still it did not work. tell me the page again. if so can I redo it .. maybe I did something wrong
[01:59] <redhat_> islan but the sudo chown -R 777 /var/www doesnt work?
[01:59] <duncan_> Odd_Block: um, just using whatever came with the live CD.  Package Manager claims that the ones installed should be compatible with an X300
[01:59] <akinari42> Does anyone else have ubuntu running on a MacBook?
[01:59] <slylyias> kelsin: SUCCESS! I have a graphical window! Thank you.
[01:59] <IndyGunFreak> techie: what do you mean tell you again?
[01:59] <kelsin> slylyias: np
[01:59] <duncan_> (odd bloke even, oops)
[01:59] <arrenlex> duncan_: I have an X300. You're going to have to use the newer drivers from ati.com rather than the ones from the ubuntu repositories because the older ones don't work well with this card.
[01:59] <techie> the site link
[02:00] <sanityx> I have a silly question. How do I add a module to the list of modules that load at boot? (kernel modules that is)
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> techie: it shoud install ina bout 5min
[02:00] <slylyias> HAve a good night everyone!
[02:00] <kelsin> slylyias: most distributions have that off by default ont he clients and not the server, ussually have to edit that file, glad it works
[02:00] <DPic> i can't access software prefrences. can anybody help me?
[02:00] <kelsin> sanityx: /etc/modules
[02:00] <duncan_> ahh right.  I have those sitting on the desktop atm.  ati-driver-installer-8.34.8-x86
[02:00] <duncan_> the .run file
[02:00] <kelsin> sanityx: edit that file as root (sudo gedit /etc/modules)
[02:00] <arooni> can anyone help me install subversion 1.40
 tell me the link again, i think i went to another page that somebody else suggestged.
[02:00] <arooni> http://pastie.caboo.se/44693
[02:00] <quaal> does anyone use syslog-ng
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy#How_to_install_DVD_playback_capability
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> that links you right to the instructions
so I want to try it now, whatever you tell me.
[02:00] <sanityx> kelsin, How come I only see two modules listed in that file? Aren't there tons that run at boot by default?
[02:01] <kelsin> arooni: just use synaptic in gnome
[02:01] <islan> redhat_, check your PM
[02:01] <IndyGunFreak> techie: its no prob, i can help you with it real fast. its not hard
[02:01] <arrenlex> duncan_: Follow this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI#head-99489608eb537a1a0346cdd3ad34209d7887714a
[02:01] <arooni> kelsin: i need subversion 1.40
[02:01] <kelsin> sanityx: yes, but that's the place for ones you want to add, I'm not 100% positive on where the others are listed
[02:01] <kelsin> arooni: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[02:01] <redhat_> islan what pm?
 yeap I put those instruction in terminal this morning and then retried and it did not work
[02:01] <kelsin> arooni: my mistake edgy only has 1.3
[02:01] <arrenlex> duncan_: If it still doesn't work after that guide, then come back, we'll try and help :)
[02:01] <IndyGunFreak> techie: then you need to enable the repositories at the top of the page.
[02:01] <islan> redhat_, I just opened a dialog window with you
[02:02] <kelsin> arooni: sorry, good luck
[02:02] <IndyGunFreak> techie: hang on a sec
[02:02] <islan> redhat_, should be in the tabs of your IRC client
do yo have a pm or can we talk there so i can follow your instructions.
[02:02] <inpho> is there a way to get my usb external drive to detect in ubuntu? the removable media doesnt find it

[02:04] <inpho> Odd_Bloke:  it would show up as a "usbsomething" right?
[02:04] <kelsin> riqz: if you right click the little handle on the left wide of the window list I think you can access some options that might let you set the minimum and maximum size of the window buttons

[02:07] <kelsin> CaptWho: what program is this and do you know what it means by C directory?
[02:07] <Odd_Bloke> inpho: Strange. I'm not really that familiar with external HDDs, so finding someone more experienced is probably a good idea...

[02:10] <CaptWho> actually, it's looking for the precompiler

[02:11] <islan> redhat_, try sudo mkdir /var/www/folder1
[02:11] <Nameeater> so you've tried linux dc++? I thought that looked one of the better ones
[02:11] <Errpast1> CUPS 1.2 keeps prompting me for credentials.  It won't accept ANY, even root.
[02:11] <rcmiv> Flannel, oy, sorry, alright thx

[02:13] <Spee_Der> TridenT_Boy3555: I'm not sure how to handle that actually, but I did look at those pictures. I am wondering if you are installing to a clean drive ?

[02:14] <TridenT_Boy3555> Reminds me to check my speed...Said I was running at 886
[02:14] <redhat_> islan ye i cant understand it neither
[02:15] <Flannel> TridenT_Boy3555: Odd.  Try using the alternate CD to install
[02:15] <inpho> is there a way to get my usb external drive to detect in ubuntu? the removable media doesnt find it
[02:15] <GaiaX11> kingcobra: Do you mean a usb card???!!!
[02:15] <TridenT_Boy3555> Flannel:???

[02:16] <riqz> aaaa k ty flannel
[02:16] <kelsin> kingcobra: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=106846 that thread might help, ask in the channel if you have problems with it
[02:16] <Flannel> TridenT_Boy3555: Instead of the "desktop" (live CD), get the "Alternate" CD

[02:17] <TridenT_Boy3555> Flannel: Uhh...LiveCD=Load to ram and go righto?
[02:17] <islan> redhat_, eh, that seems a little far to go, but I don't know if that's an installation error or not; did you just install it?
[02:17] <Pelo> TridenT_Boy3555,  the alternate installis the one that is hard to find, the live cd is the regular one with the desktop
[02:17] <riqz> Anyone know of some cool addons for the desktop.?i mean like eyecandy. And not beryl pls Something like gDesklets
[02:17] <redhat_> islan yes i just installed it

[02:18] <TridenT_Boy3555> But that gave me more issues, like the screen was not in color and all crazy
[02:18] <Pelo> TridenT_Boy3555,  sounds like the live cd

[02:18] <ubotu> TridenT_Boy3555: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.
[02:18] <TridenT_Boy3555> mmmk
[02:18] <TridenT_Boy3555> weird
[02:18] <Flannel> TridenT_Boy3555: Right, that's the Desktop CD, you want the alternate CD, same place, literally changing 'desktop' to 'alternate' in that URL *should* get you it
[02:18] <quaal> when i go to install syslog i get this The following packages will be REMOVED:
[02:18] <quaal>   klogd sysklogd ubuntu-minimal
[02:18] <quaal> is this ok ?
[02:18] <nachouru> hi i need help installin ubuntu 6.10
[02:18] <kingcobra> GaiaX11: yes its a usb wireless lan card/chipset
[02:18] <arrenlex> quaal: NO
[02:19] <quaal> arrenlex, why ?
[02:19] <quaal> why cant i install syslog without removing them?
[02:19] <TridenT_Boy3555> Flannel, pelo, arrenlex...running out of CDs
[02:19] <kingcobra> kelsin: it says no ipv6 routers present
[02:19] <arrenlex> quaal: Because you're removing the kernel logger, the system logger, and the ubuntu core.
[02:19] <quaal> uhhh
[02:19] <riqz> Is installing compiz a good idea?
[02:19] <TridenT_Boy3555> flannel, pelo, arrenlex, not sure if I even have a blank lol
[02:19] <quaal> arrenlex, so you're saying i cannot install syslog on ubuntu ?
[02:19] <kelsin> kingcobra: when? what step were you on, or what this when you typed in the dmesg command?
[02:19] <inpho> is there a way to get my usb external drive to detect in ubuntu? the removable media doesnt find it
[02:20] <kelsin> kingcobra: if you think you need the ralink drivers follow that howto I linked to you to get help installing them
[02:20] <kingcobra> yes when i typed dmesg command u said to
[02:20] <riqz> Can i fuck up my drivers and shit trying to install compiz?
[02:20] <nachouru> I have this problem when i run the live Cd i get till log in screen but cant log in any ideas? im on a toshiba Satelite
[02:20] <kelsin> kingcobra: did it say anything else? or only that one line?
[02:20] <arrenlex> quaal: That package isn't even in the repos. What are you trying to install?
[02:21] <arrenlex> !language > riqz
[02:21] <nachouru> any ideas?
[02:21] <TridenT_Boy3555> Okay
[02:21] <TridenT_Boy3555> Guys
[02:21] <riqz> sorry
[02:21] <quaal> arrenlex, syslog-ng
[02:21] <TridenT_Boy3555> So what is the Alternate CD the same type of installing?
[02:21] <Odd_Bloke> riqz: Unlikely, but even then not in an irretrievable manner...
[02:21] <quaal> arrenlex, syslog is a logging daemon
[02:21] <TridenT_Boy3555> Like...Does it install the same or do I actually need to know something about the shell lol
[02:21] <kingcobra> kelsin: [17179887,508000] bwlan0: no ipv6 routers present
[02:21] <riqz> odd_bloke : so i can do it
[02:22] <kingcobra> kelsin: that was all it said after i typed ur command
[02:22] <Odd_Bloke> riqz: Go for it. I'd suggest Beryl instead of Compiz however.
[02:22] <n-iCe> !frostwire
[02:22] <ubotu> frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[02:22] <nachouru> can anyone help me?
[02:22] <kelsin> kingcobra: ok, forget that then, you said you think you needed ralink drivers, I liked you this forum site http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=106846
[02:22] <arrenlex> quaal: Hmm. If you're installing a different system logger, then it makes sense to remove the old one. Nevermind, then. I thought you were trying to install a regular package.
[02:22] <riqz> odd_bloke : i tried beryl
[02:22] <riqz> odd_bloke : it broke
[02:22] <kelsin> kingcobra: follow that to try and install those drivers
[02:22] <quaal> arrenlex, hmm ok
[02:22] <riqz> odd_bloke : lol freezes up all the time
[02:22] <riqz> odd_bloke : lol freezes up at startup
[02:22] <rlevitin> !ntfs
[02:22] <riqz> odd_bloke : wont even run
[02:22] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[02:22] <quaal> arrenlex, so it removes programs automatically that would be doing the same thing, preventing conflicts
[02:22] <Odd_Bloke> riqz: Beryl and compiz are built on a lot of the same codebase.
[02:22] <rlevitin> !ntfs-3g
[02:22] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. It has been extensively tested but is still BETA software, so use it with caution.

[02:23] <riqz> odd_bloke : i cant believe mine wouldnt run
[02:23] <riqz> odd_bloke : but beryl is in alpha development aint it
[02:23] <cycro> hi
[02:23] <cycro> has anybody used photorec before?
[02:23] <inpho> can i private message someone my dmesg so i can ask a question concerning it?
[02:23] <Odd_Bloke> riqz: Yeah, and it forked from compiz. Go figure. :p
[02:23] <Odd_Bloke> inpho: Better to use a pastebin.
[02:23] <arrenlex> quaal: That's right. apt resolves conflicts and dependencies. That's what makes it useful.
[02:23] <inpho> Odd_Bloke:  i dont know what that is
[02:23] <quaal> arrenlex, cool. thanks
[02:23] <riqz> odd_bloke : i might just wait until beryl is beta at least
[02:24] <cycro> anybody use photorec?
[02:24] <Odd_Bloke> inpho: See topic.
[02:24] <quaal> Odd_Bloke, i tried installing compiz. it failed miserable and kinda hosed my system
[02:24] <gh0st> hey, how can i automatically shutdown my pc after xx minutes (without any sounds)?
[02:24] <quaal> Odd_Bloke, beryl installed in like 15min with no problems.
[02:24] <kingcobra> kelsin: ok i dont think i hav installed firmware for the driver, ill follow link now
[02:24] <nachouru> guys? anyone can help me?
[02:24] <jinxuhuang> hi hi quick question im trying to install ubuntu with reiserfs and mount noatime is there any short coming to this?
[02:25] <nachouru> I have this problem when i run the live Cd i get till log in screen but cant log in any ideas? im on a toshiba Satelite
[02:25] <cactaur> nachouru: What's the question?
[02:25] <Odd_Bloke> gh0st: Set up an elaborate system using dripping water which gradually places more and more pressure on the power button. :p
[02:25] <kelsin> kingcobra: if you want to QUICKLY try out the firmware idea, download the fireware file from that site you linked me and place the bin file that you get out of the tar.gz in /lib/firmware then reboot and see if the card responds
[02:25] <kelsin> kingcobra: if that doesn't work quickly then I would say follow that forum guide
[02:25] <nachouru> cactaur: I have this problem when i run the live Cd i get till log in screen but cant log in any ideas? im on a toshiba Satelite
[02:26] <sixhat> nachouru, Can you do a ALT+CTRL+F2 to go to tty2?
[02:26] <nachouru> no... what is tty2?
[02:26] <Anohaakten> hey can I get some help on dual booting?
[02:26] <bulmer> console number 2
[02:26] <inpho> Odd_Bloke:  so can i paste that in here?
[02:26] <sixhat> nachouru, Its Console 2
[02:27] <GaiaX11> Anohaakten: !grub

[02:27] <Odd_Bloke> inpho: Go to the URL given, paste the stuff there. Then paste the resulting URL in here.
[02:27] <linxeh> are there any decent timetracking applications around? eg simple task lists with a simple start/stop front end?
[02:27] <nachouru> ok... but an error happens when i try to log in... says smth about my last session was shorter than 10 sec and gets me back to log in screen
[02:27] <bulmer> Anohaakten: install windows first before linux
[02:27] <flamesrock> are there any programs that can be used limit the download speed of a program?
[02:27] <Anohaakten> when I download ubuntu directly from its website, does that version automatically come with that program "grub" allowing me to dual boot
[02:27] <Anohaakten> I have vista installed already

[02:29] <sixhat> nachouru, can you login from the tty2?
[02:29] <arrenlex> WB everyone!
[02:29] <kelsin> Anohaakten: yes the default ubuntu install sets up grub for itself. If it finds your windows partition (which it shoudl) it will put a line in your grub conf about windows for you
[02:29] <nachouru> havent tried
[02:29] <Spee_Der> Phew...
[02:29] <riqz> i cant believe how much hackin one needs to do to install compiz or beryl
[02:29] <riqz> its unbelievable tbh
[02:29] <ryanakca> gh0st: sudo shutdown -h x
[02:29] <nachouru> ill try and come back...
[02:29] <ryanakca> where x is the time in minutes
[02:29] <sixhat> nachouru, ok

[02:29] <nachouru> any other thing ill need to try?
[02:29] <Errpast1> Has anyone had a CUPS 1.2 issue, where no matter what credentials you provide to the web interface on port 631, the credentials are rejected?
[02:29] <gh0st> at least on my machine
[02:29] <Odd_Bloke> riqz: They are in alpha...
[02:29] <arrenlex> riqz: Hacking? All I had to do was paste one line into /etc/apt/sources.list and apt-get install beryl.
[02:29] <inpho> I have a question concerning dmesg, can somone take a look at this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8718/
[02:30] <kelsin> riqz: These are beta (sometimes alpha) software made by volunteers and users, until it matures it's going to be rough sometimes depending on hardware conflicts
[02:30] <riqz> arrenlex: maybe u had xgl already installed

[02:30] <PriceChild> arrenlex, beryl can use xgl
[02:30] <arrenlex> riqz: Oh, if you're on ati, I guess.

[02:30] <eromero> and ieeee80211
[02:30] <riqz> arrenlex no im nvidia
[02:30] <Odd_Bloke> riqz: In future, avoid ATI. :p
[02:30] <arrenlex> riqz: Then why are you trying to use xgl? o_O
[02:30] <Odd_Bloke> riqz: Really? Then you don't need XGL.
[02:31] <linxeh> Odd_Bloke: that's not quite what I meant - I was thinking more along the lines of tasks for me to do :)
[02:31] <riqz> arrenlex : maybe now i know lol why it didnt work
[02:31] <nachouru> sixhat: any launch mode like the ones suggested on help?
[02:31] <riqz> odd_bloke so what do i use for beryl? aiglx?

[02:31] <inpho> I have a question concerning a device, can somone take a look at this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8718/
[02:31] <Odd_Bloke> riqz: Find an appropriate guide on the Beryl wiki.
[02:32] <sixhat> Toshiba Satalites tend to have problems with graphics... at least some models...
[02:32] <riqz> odd_bloke funnyly enough i have and i installed xgl with nvidia...
[02:32] <jinxuhuang> hi is there any shortcoming to install ubuntu with reiserfs and mount noatime?
[02:32] <Odd_Bloke> riqz: Then you found the wrong page.
[02:32] <jinxuhuang> this is for a home pc
[02:32] <sixhat> nachouru, and from here i can't say it's a graphic card problem or something eles
[02:32] <riqz> odd_bloke : lol

[02:33] <p47> help me please I can execute kiba-dock only as root :(
[02:33] <Odd_Bloke> riqz: Look, it says nVIDIA. ;)
[02:33] <kelsin> kingcobra: need to copy that bin file to that folder as root, for example in a terminal "sudo cp <file> /lib/modules"
[02:33] <sixhat> nachouru, ok.. try loigin in in console mode
[02:33] <Odd_Bloke> n-iCe: mpd w/ a client is what I use.
[02:33] <n-iCe> Odd_Bloke,  ?
[02:33] <arooni> folks i need a visio replacment
[02:33] <riqz> odd_bloke : it cant be that easy
[02:33] <n-iCe> for play music ?
[02:33] <sixhat> nachouru, if it logs then it might be a X problem
[02:34] <Odd_Bloke> riqz: Have you tried? :p
[02:34] <kelsin> n-iCe: another vote for mpd, you can also try exaile, listen, banshee, etc
[02:34] <arrenlex> (18:33:55) riqz: odd_bloke : it cant be that easy
[02:34] <arrenlex> (18:29:51) arrenlex: riqz: Hacking? All I had to do was paste one line into /etc/apt/sources.list and apt-get install beryl.
[02:34] <Odd_Bloke> arrenlex: Heh.
[02:34] <riqz> odd_bloke : even with geforce go 6200?
[02:34] <n-iCe> kelsin,  how can i downlaod mpd , sudo apt-get install mpd ?
[02:34] <Odd_Bloke> riqz: Suck it and see.
[02:34] <eromero> anyone?
[02:34] <riqz> odd_bloke : suck it?
[02:35] <arrenlex> n-iCe: You'll need universe enabled.
[02:35] <kelsin> n-iCe: yes, mpd might be tough though, it's a server program... if you are unfamiliar with linux might want to try listen, banshee, or amarok (kde) before mpd
[02:35] <Odd_Bloke> riqz: Try the instructions.
[02:35] <riqz> ok
[02:35] <riqz> i'll be back odd_bloke
[02:35] <Odd_Bloke> riqz: If they don't work, come back for help.
[02:35] <Odd_Bloke> riqz: Ominous. :p
[02:35] <n-iCe> i already downlaod it
[02:35] <riqz> i will ty
[02:35] <eromero> hi fellows, hey how can i reinstall ipw3945 module?
[02:36] <kelsin> eromero: if you installed it once, can't you just install it again? I assume you need to cause your kernel upgraded?
[02:36] <Odd_Bloke> eromero: In Synaptic, right-click on the package and select re-install...
[02:36] <n-iCe> thank you guys
[02:36] <eromero> i didnt installed it by hand and cant find the package name to reinstall it =(
[02:36] <trentg> Is /etc/init.d/rc.local stop run on reboot?
[02:37] <n-iCe> kelsin,  now how can i open it?
[02:37] <n-iCe> isn't in multimedia
[02:38] <kelsin> n-iCe: taht's what I was trying to tell you, start out with "listen" or "banshee" or the rythembox mp3 player included with gnome before mpd
[02:38] <n-iCe> ...
[02:38] <n-iCe> ?
[02:38] <n-iCe> now how can i uninstall it then ?
[02:38] <Blankhorizons> amarok is pretty nice too
[02:38] <kelsin> n-iCe: mpd is "Music Player Daemon" it's a daemon that sits in the background you need to install another client to use it, and edit some config files to point you to your mp3 player
[02:38] <kelsin> n-iCe: use synaptic to uninstall it by right clicking and select mark for removal
[02:38] <n-iCe> uhm
[02:38] <n-iCe> what about amms ?
[02:39] <Errpast1> Other than /var/log/cups/error_log, how can I troubleshoot a printing problem
[02:39] <linxeh> trentg: rc.local doesnt take a parameter usually
[02:39] <kelsin> all of the media player syou can install with synaptic, just search for media player and you'll find a lot
[02:39] <kingcobra> kelsin: what folder do you want me to put it in then modules or firmware
[02:40] <abcdef> ubuntu is nice
[02:40] <Msword> Flannel you here?
[02:40] <linxeh> trentg: it gets run when you enter a multiuser runlevel, so I doubt it gets run at shutdown
[02:40] <kelsin> kingcobra: /lib/firmware I mistyped
[02:40] <kingcobra> kelsin: also firmware doesnt hav any other files in it
[02:40] <trentg> linxeh: it looks like it does.. start, stop, restart..
[02:40] <abcdef> it's very fast compare to my gentoo lolz
[02:40] <n-iCe> abcdef,  it's
[02:40] <|omegabeta|> Can anyone tell me where to go to get Rythmbox skins?
[02:40] <eromero> how do i know what package owns a file?
[02:40] <n-iCe> i need a good player like winamp
[02:40] <trentg> linxeh, I mean /etc/init.d/rc.local, not /etc/rc.local
[02:40] <Msword> ok guys
[02:40] <cafuego_> eromero: dpkg -S <file>
[02:40] <kelsin> kingcobra: that's fine, you aren't running any other drivers that need firmware loading
[02:40] <Msword> this is the last chance ubuntu has
[02:40] <kingcobra> kelsin: ok. thers just2.6.17-10 generic folder in there
[02:41] <Msword> it came so close to f***ing up my computer
[02:41] <kingcobra> kelsin:ok
[02:41] <linxeh> trentg: ok, well /etc/init.d/rc.local will get called if it is linked in the runlevel dirs, but the default stop / restart doesnt do anything.
[02:41] <Lord_Maynoth> does anyone here know how to view packages by install date in synaptic or by other means?
[02:41] <tecky> N-ice: xmms ?
[02:42] <linxeh> trentg: the kind of stuff you normally put in rc.local doesnt really suit stop/restart - if it did you'd have it in a separate /etc/init.d script anyway
[02:42] <trentg> linxeh, oh I see.. thanks very much
[02:42] <linxeh> trentg: what are you trying to do ?
[02:42] <n-iCe> tecky,  other one ?
[02:42] <trentg> linxeh, I want to put iptables-save in there
[02:42] <tecky> n-iCe ya ... looks and acts just like winamp "XMMS"
[02:42] <riqz> im back
[02:42] <Cryoniq> !iso
[02:42] <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
[02:42] <n-iCe> i tried it but i don't like it othero ne ? of that style ?
[02:42] <riqz> well Im running the script to install beryl now... It kinda looks to me its installing glx again
[02:42] <Lord_Maynoth> Msword why don't you install ubuntu on an older non essential computer
[02:42] <Msword> Everyone look at this and no one will know how to fix it, guarenteed
[02:42] <Msword> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8698/
[02:43] <linxeh> trentg: I'd just write a quick script in /etc/init.d and link it apropriately
[02:43] <|omegabeta|> Can anyone tell me where to go to get Rythmbox skins?
[02:43] <Cryoniq> Hmm.. what is a good mountpoint to specify when mounting an ISO?
[02:43] <makuseru> how can i change the defualt audio track on a .mkv file
[02:43] <pix_535> ##windows rox kthnxbye rofl
[02:44] <trentg> linxeh, so if I put it in /etc/rc5.d will it get run on shutdown/reboot?
[02:44] <mynullvoid> at the moment all my log files are being compressed into .gz; how can I get it deleted instead using logrotate ?
[02:44] <gyaresu> Cryoniq: /mnt/iso

[02:49] <gyaresu> makuseru: I don't really understand that question.
[02:49] <Nomad`> Why would one computer get stuck at "Mounting root file system" while another boots all the way just fine? (trying to install ubuntu 6.06 using the Desktop CD)
[02:49] <sixhat> nachouru, you logged into the console, probably theres's some parameter that you can pass at boot time, they'll depend on the Toshiba that you have
[02:50] <leeba> what command do i use to add my ip address etc.
[02:50] <billy> OpenOffice has everything displayed in Greek.  Should I uninstall and reinstall it, or is there a way to get it to just be in English.
[02:50] <kelsin> Fuzzehskittlez: fully depends on your hardware. The main ubuntu and xubuntu cd's are "live" cds in that they will boot and allow you to run some programs without installing first, so you can see if your computer gets past that. If it does the full install will probably work as well
[02:50] <nicoAMG> ubuntu: please use ubuntu-es for help in spanish
[02:50] <digitize> this is more of a fireofx question, but i am using ubuntu, anyway - when looking at digg.com firefox slows down A LOT, and it slows down the entire system, only with digg.com is this happening.  any suggestions? clearing out the firefox files / rebooting?

[02:50] <dager> leeba, what do you mean "add" your ip address?
[02:50] <ubuntu> IT COOL
[02:50] <gyaresu> Nomad`: Do you have more information about the computer that gets stuck ( i imagine they are different machines btw)
[02:50] <sixhat> nachouru, What is your Model?
[02:50] <riqz> WOOOOOOOOOOOOOoo
[02:50] <nachouru> let me check :P
[02:50] <riqz> IT INSTALLED
[02:50] <pingpongboss> does anyone know how to remove TC:Elite and wolfenstein?
[02:50] <riqz> yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaas
[02:50] <arrenlex> riqz: Yay?
[02:50] <leeba> I mean to get on line with my server
[02:51] <gyaresu> arrenlex: Yeah I know matroska but you have multiple audio tracks on the file?
[02:51] <riqz> arrenlex: OMG IM SO HAPPYYYYYYY
[02:51] <leeba> i need to add my info
[02:51] <wolfspirit> pingpongboss: how did you install it?
[02:51] <makuseru> gyaresu: on mkv's there is usually more than one audio track japanese and english in my case, and im trying to burn it as a dvd video, but my progrma uses the default language which is japanese, im trying to change the dafault to english
[02:51] <Fuzzehskittlez> and, kelsin, is there a way i can install this without formatting my hard drive?
[02:51] <riqz> arrenlex: lOOK wooby windows!
[02:51] <leeba> i dont knowhow to put in the command line for to add that
[02:51] <pingpongboss> wolfspirit: from *.run files
[02:51] <Nomad`> gyaresu: yeah a bit, but i can't think of anything significant that would cause it to stick. there are no USB devices plugged in, only one hard drive (formatted and partitioned to leave unallocated space)
[02:51] <nachouru> sixhat: L20
[02:51] <pingpongboss> wolfspirit, some kinda script i guess
[02:51] <BUMBACL0T> [20:51]  <BUMBACL0T> when printing a photo, is the glossy side on top or bottom?

[02:52] <Fuzzehskittlez> gloosy on top
[02:52] <dager> leeba, are you on a dhcp connection?
[02:52] <wolfspirit> pingpongboss: if they didn't include an uninstaller you probably will have to manually remove it by doing a find command.. or peek in the script to see which directories it installed to

[02:59] <Fuzzehskittlez> msword taht website will not help you
[02:59] <gyaresu> andy05: You don't have the right repos enabled I think.
[02:59] <Fuzzehskittlez> This website is not about the 'Desktop' Live/Install CD's installer.
[02:59] <Brazil4Linux> http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php?title=Ubuntu_Feisty_Installation_Guide
[02:59] <Fiish> if u have the repos u dont need automatix anyway
[02:59] <andy05> how do i enable it
[02:59] <nachouru1> sixhat?
[03:00] <billy> why are all the OpenOffice displays in transliterated Greek?
[03:00] <jinxuhuang> hey i get error when installing the kernel using alternative cd i try to redo it now it ask me to select the right kernel linux-386 linux-image-386 or linux-image 2.17.4 blah so which one should i use?
[03:00] <sixhat> nachouru, I imagine you'll have to run some sort of parameters at boot to change screen definitions... but I can't tell you which...

[03:00] <welgin> good morning
[03:00] <gyaresu> !repos > andy05
[03:00] <kelsin> kdrlx: learning how to do it the right way teaches you more and will make you more knowledable in the long run too, and honestly doesn't take much longer

[03:00] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[03:00] <welgin> goog morning
[03:00] <sixhat> nachouru, I was looking for someone that might had the same problem and seams that there was a problem in 5.10
[03:00] <Brazil4Linux> welgin: good night here :)
[03:00] <gyaresu> andy05: I ">" directed that to you so as not to flood the chanel.
[03:01] <arrenlex> riqz: Do you still have the nvidia .run package?
[03:01] <Fuzzehskittlez> msword
[03:01] <nachouru1> how did he solved it?
[03:01] <jinxuhuang> is there a guide to network install for ubuntu?
[03:02] <makuseru> how can i change the defualt audio track on a .mkv file
[03:03] <leeba> and now for dumbest question of the evening
[03:04] <arrenlex> leeba: Yes, the answer really is 42.
[03:04] <gyaresu> _drumroll_
[03:04] <BrendanM> Does VLC support visualization plugins like Whitecap or Milkdrop?
[03:04] <leeba> I knew that!
[03:05] <Nontitle> does anyone use gtk-gnutella for ubunt? i need the ip address of the Pseudo UDP Node
[03:05] <Nontitle> I seemed to have lost it
[03:05] <pingpongboss> this $HOME/.dmrc error at login is driving me nuts...
[03:05] <BrendanM> Anyone here use VLC/
[03:06] <Jarhead756> how can i mount an iso, and where is a good place to do so? i am trying to install a game from it, so will i be able to play from the iso?
[03:06] <leeba> Thank you..but really ..what do I type in command line after log in and password.. to Ubuntu..when I type in this command....dhcpcd eth0" then "ifconfig eth0 up", replacing eth0 for the proper device name
[03:06] <joshjosh> anyone here use exaile?
[03:06] <arrenlex> !iso | Jarhead756
[03:06] <ubotu> Jarhead756: To mount an ISO disc image, type "sudo mount -o loop my.iso <mountpoint>" There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before burning. Burning .iso files: see !burn
[03:06] <Jarhead756> joshjosh: no, but i thought about it, do you?
[03:06] <eromero> anyone knows if the keyboard can be disabled? i'm using a laptop as a kiosk, only need the mouse and want to disable the keyboard so users dont do anything they're not supposed to
[03:07] <joshjosh> was thinkign about trying it out since i can't get amarok working (it was working, then i removed it and reinstalled ad infinium and it won't load)
[03:07] <Jarhead756> arrenlex: so "my.sio" is the path to the file, and mount point is where to mount it?
[03:07] <billy> The answer is : NO.  There is no openoffice.org english IRC channel.  Turns out, this is it!
[03:07] <Nontitle> has anybody here used gtk-gnutella before?
[03:07] <BrendanM> eromero, you could remove the keyboard from xorg.conf
[03:07] <eromero> :o
[03:07] <`nicola> My ubuntu loading screen is ugly (I'm not talking about gnome loading screen) is there a way to edit it ? thanks
[03:07] <eromero> sweet
[03:07] <leeba> sudo?
[03:07] <nachouru1> sixhat: anythin that could help? if not im going to try every mode that appears on help menu
[03:07] <At0mic_P1> Can you download just part of a torrent?
[03:07] <eromero> BrendanM: let me give it a try
[03:07] <arrenlex> Jarhead756: Yep
[03:07] <leeba> sudo su dhcpcd eth0" then "ifconfig eth0 up", replacing eth0 for the proper device name
[03:07] <At0mic_P1> Like if it has a bunch of files in it and I only want one.
[03:07] <riqz> arrenlex: dude nobody is helping me in #ubuntu-effects
[03:07] <sixhat> nachouru, Well You can try them... they wont arm your system
[03:08] <Jarhead756> At0mic_P1: yes, use azuerus, you can specify which files you want to download, it works.
[03:08] <kelsin> eromero: if you make a new user, then make sure they can't su or sudo to root, it's really hard for them to do anything that bad to the system
[03:08] <At0mic_P1> Thanks
[03:08] <arrenlex> riqz: Oh, that's where you were. I wondered why you didn't say anything.
[03:08] <BrendanM> eromero, be sure to make a backup, or just comment it out
[03:08] <sixhat> nachouru,  And If one of them works please tell me
[03:08] <arrenlex> riqz: I'd asked you: Do you still have the nvidia .run package?
[03:08] <gyaresu> At0mic_P1: Yeah. It's client dependant though. Maybe azureus...
[03:08] <nachouru1> ok ill try
[03:08] <riqz> arrenlex: can u come in ubuntu-effects for a min pls
[03:08] <nachouru1> sixhat: there is any way of installing it without gettin all this trouble?
[03:09] <gbellmann> hi, need help running ubuntu on my athlon64 with two geforce 7600 in sli mode, the cd starts but the screen goes blank
[03:09] <sixhat> nachouru, Yes, You can use the Alternate Install CD
[03:09] <Jarhead756> anyone here played doom 3 within ubuntu?
[03:09] <leeba> i created a root user and password ..in command line..is sudo to standard login and su for root?
[03:09] <nachouru1> uhmm... need to download that?
[03:09] <sixhat> nachouru, It install in the old text mode installer
[03:09] <kelsin> !anyone | Jarhead756
[03:09] <ubotu> Jarhead756: 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?
[03:09] <BrendanM> leeba, sudo lets you do root things without actually logging in as root
[03:10] <owner> can someone help me install mysql-server
[03:10] <BrendanM> leeba, ubuntu encourages you to use sudo instead of using the root account
[03:10] <gbellmann> owner: apt-get install mysql
[03:10] <owner> when i install it it gives me a dependency erro
[03:10] <nachouru1> sixhat, can i get to the text mode installer with the livecd?
[03:10] <kelsin> leeba: yeah sudo allows you to make complex rules, in ubuntu the first user has all sudo privileges but you can also make it (for example) one user can run iwconfig without a password as root, etc
[03:10] <Bobby> hello... how is everyone?  I hope someone can help me.... last night someone one gave me some help and some websites to go on to get my linux to connect to my windows C: drive... but... i was unsuccessful in putting it all together and now kinda fustrated...  can someone help me out?
[03:10] <BrendanM> I hate that "anyone...." bot speech. That's a perfectly legitimate way to start a question and it sounds more polite, in any case.
[03:11] <leeba> Why Brendan
[03:11] <kingcobra> kelsin: can you tell me what i am supposed to replace `uname -r`with
[03:11] <owner> and it says cannot configure
[03:11] <Jarhead756> arrenlex: so, what does the -o loop do?
[03:11] <Jarhead756> arrenlex: and if i want to unmount?
[03:11] <sixhat> nachouru, no You'll need this http://ftp.wayne.edu/linux_distributions/ubuntu/edgy/ubuntu-6.10-alternate-i386.iso
[03:11] <kelsin> kingcobra: `uname -r` in a terminal is replaced automatically by bash to your kernel version
[03:11] <kelsin> kingcobra: if yoiu want to manually replace it, run the command "uname -r" and replace what comes back into the original command
[03:11] <nachouru1> ok... thx for all the help if i can fix it ill let u know
[03:11] <sixhat> nachouru, this will allow you to install in text mode,
[03:12] <BrendanM> leeba, it's harder to accidentally screw something up, and harder for viruses/hackers to mess things up. If you're not a root user, you have to enter a password to do anything really serious.
[03:12] <arrenlex> Jarhead756: -o specifies options. The "loop" option mounts it as a loopback device, i.e. rather than as a real hardware device, you mount a file.
[03:12] <arrenlex> Jarhead756: To remove it later, umount <mountpoint>
[03:12] <kingcobra> no its fine
[03:12] <garfield1> hey guys...I just installed 6.10 and I need some help getting it to run
[03:12] <BrendanM> ...not that there really are Linux viruses... but *in theory*
[03:12] <Jarhead756> arrenlex: peace of cake, much easier than installing something in windows and all.
[03:12] <makuseru> how can i change the defualt audio track on a .mkv file
[03:13] <BrendanM> So...not a single VLC user in here?
[03:13] <Bobby> all it says is that the SMB connection failed.... any help would be great!! thank you!!
[03:13] <kingcobra> kelsin: couldnt find package gcc 3.4 came up after first instruction
[03:13] <kingcobra> kelsin: does this matter
[03:13] <makuseru> BrendanM: i wish, then maybe i could get some help
[03:13] <kingcobra> kelsin: i skipped it
[03:13] <kelsin> makuseru: asking on the mkv mailing or forums is probably a quicker way to find that out
[03:13] <kelsin> kingcobra: you need to install the packages needed for compiling
[03:13] <makuseru> wheres that
[03:13] <kelsin> !build-essential | kingcobra
[03:13] <ubotu> kingcobra: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[03:14] <terroris> hello
[03:14] <kelsin> makuseru: http://www.matroska.org/ that's their website
[03:14] <eromero> well removing the keyboard from xorg.conf didnt work... any other ideas?
[03:14] <makuseru> thanks
[03:14] <terroris> yay ubuntu users
[03:14] <kingcobra> kelsin: which step do i need those packages installed for
[03:14] <owner> when i try to install mysql-server it gives me an error of: dpkg dependency problems prevent configuration of mysql-server
[03:14] <BrendanM> eromero, did you restart the X server?
[03:14] <garfield1> does anyone have experience with problems when trying to run ubuntu off of an external hdd?
[03:15] <eromero> yep
[03:15] <leeba> So is it better not to have created a root user? and left it as it was when i first  installed it using my ubuntu login and password?
[03:15] <owner> any1 got any ideass
[03:15] <garfield1> eromero...was that a yes to my question or someone else's?
[03:15] <bulmer> leeba depends
[03:15] <lap> someone can tell me if alternate cd install minimal system ?
[03:15] <lap> like debian.
[03:15] <Bobby> anyone please?  networking help.... ??
[03:15] <eromero> garfield1: to BrendanM
[03:15] <lap> and let me install what i want after.
[03:15] <arrenlex> !server | lap
[03:15] <ubotu> lap: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server-specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq/ - The #ubuntu-server channel provides specific support
[03:15] <terroris> yes networking help
[03:15] <BrendanM> eromero, try that: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=363903
[03:15] <terroris> I need help too
[03:16] <bulmer> lap i dont know, it didnt work for me on a thinkpad 600 with 92megs
[03:16] <BrendanM> eromero, he links to some guide that might be helpful
[03:16] <terroris> can anyone give advice on getting wireless working?
[03:16] <nisq_57> BrendanM:  instead of su try sudo -i
[03:16] <gbellmann> hi, need help running ubuntu on my athlon64 with two geforce 7600 in sli mode, the cd starts but the screen goes blank
[03:17] <kelsin> kingcobra: any of the compiling steps
[03:17] <garfield1> gbellmann...I can't help you much, but what drivers are you using for your card?
[03:17] <owner> how can i configure mysql-server
[03:17] <gyaresu> Bobby: What's the problem?
[03:18] <owner> it gives me dependency errors
[03:18] <kelsin> eromero: what are you afraid of them doing, as long as you make sure a user doesn't have root privileges there isn't a lot they can do to the system if they aren't root and don't have root's password
[03:18] <gyaresu> terroris: Have you followed the wifi 'howto'
[03:18] <terroris> uh I tired
[03:18] <terroris> err tried*
[03:18] <Jarhead756> arrenlex: i have an iso mounted at /home/matt/Desktop/2 , and it wont unmount. i don't know why.
[03:18] <eromero> well they can open other programs
[03:18] <gbellmann> garfield1: i want to install it on my hard disk, so i suppose they are the generic drivers (ubuntu 6.06)
[03:18] <Bobby> thank you gyaresu...i am trying to coneect my linux box to my windows box... i can get to my router and on the internet with my linux box but i can't see my windows box at all
[03:19] <leeba> Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications.Would it be  easierfor me to wipe out the server edition, install the Desktop CD for 6.1 then install LAMPP?..
[03:19] <eromero> as i said this is a kiosk, so they shouldnt be able to open anything else
[03:19] <eromero> just the kiosk app
[03:19] <gyaresu> terroris: Do you know what chipset you have? (lscpi). Have a look on the forums for someones success story.
[03:19] <Bobby> ii've configed the stab file and mounted it with sudo mount -a
[03:19] <terroris> hrrm
[03:19] <Bobby> but i just get a SMB connection failed every time...
[03:19] <terroris> ill look on the internetz
[03:19] <Jarhead756> what is the command to unmount an iso from a folder?
[03:19] <kingcobra> kelsin: what 1 is a compiling step
[03:20] <bulmer> Bobby why not mount it manually and see how it goes?
[03:20] <Bobby> how do i go about doing that?
[03:20] <arrenlex> Jarhead756: Is it producing terminal output?
[03:20] <gyaresu> Bobby: Are you sure that you're 'sharing' from windows properly and that there is no firewall issues?
[03:20] <Bobby> i'm new at this linux thing
[03:20] <bulmer> Jarhead756: umount  dirname
[03:20] <Bobby> yes i am sharing it...
[03:20] <Jarhead756> arrenlex: it mentiones unmount not being a command, i think its umount
[03:20] <terroris> when you say chipset
[03:20] <gyaresu> Bobby: Try the command 'smbtree'
[03:21] <Jarhead756> bulmer: thanks
[03:21] <Jarhead756> arrenlex: got it
[03:21] <terroris> you are talking about my wireless card, right?
[03:21] <riqz> arrenlex: dude whts the name of the channel i was on
[03:21] <gyaresu> terroris: What type of wireless device is it?
[03:21] <arrenlex> riqz: #ubuntu-effects
[03:21] <kelsin> kingcobra: I don't want to be discouraging, but to compile this driver you probably should have a lot more knownledge about linux and compiling in general, I'm afraid I don't have time right now for that kind of help
[03:21] <gyaresu> !prefix | terroris
[03:21] <ubotu> terroris: If you prefix your lines with the nickname of the person you're talking to, you have a greater chance that that person reads your messages
[03:21] <Bobby> i don't get anything...
[03:21] <garfield1> it's most likely a driver problem, i.e. ubuntu can't see your video card at all, try to find a specific set written for your card and ubuntu
[03:21] <gyaresu> Bobby: Can you ping the windows box?
[03:22] <terroris> gyaresu: linksys
[03:22] <garfield1> if you stick around I'm assuming someone might have better advice than that though
[03:22] <Bobby> destination host unreachable...
[03:22] <leeba> I assume this channel has people during the day as well? I will be at my server tomorrow and will try to use the command Riqz gave me to connect  but having help then would be good
[03:22] <leeba> if it does not work
[03:22] <gyaresu> terroris: please be verbose. Exactly what device is it? Provide a link if possible.
[03:22] <terroris> !gyaresu | linksys
[03:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gyaresu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:23] <gyaresu> !prefix | Bobby
[03:23] <ubotu> Bobby: If you prefix your lines with the nickname of the person you're talking to, you have a greater chance that that person reads your messages
[03:23] <terroris> yeah, im new too irc as well
[03:23] <BrendanM> leeba, this channel always has people...
[03:23] <Bobby> ubotu thank you sorry...

[03:24] <ToddEDM2> hey guys , could someone help me troubleshoot my wifi connection, i had it ... then when i updated a bunch of security updates, i lost it
[03:24] <kingcobra> kelsin: ok
[03:24] <kelsin> DM|: are all of the items on your panel "Locked"? (when you right click on them there should be an option
[03:24] <gbellmann> garfield1:OK thanks anyway
[03:24] <gyaresu> Hey ToddEDM2 still problems with the wifi eh?
[03:24] <jake333> how do i install darwin streaming server onto ubuntu
[03:25] <riqz> leeba: wht command did i give u?
[03:25] <ToddEDM2> now its on my laptop
[03:25] <DM|> kelsin aye, then i reboot and bring everything back up they are still locked, just in different positons ( my clock moves all the way to the left of the cluster of things)
[03:25] <ToddEDM2> i have something for the grafx card, but need a connection
[03:25] <gyaresu> ToddEDM2: Rebooted and broken eh?
[03:25] <ToddEDM2> yes
[03:25] <jake333> how do i install darwin streaming server onto ubuntu
[03:25] <ToddEDM2> gyaresu, you heard of envy?
[03:25] <kelsin> kingcobra: I think this: http://ubuntu.lupine.me.uk/pool/dapper/main/ralink-drivers_cvs2006-08-24-kernel2.6.17.9_386.deb may be a packaged version of the driver you need, maybe you can try downloading that and installing it
[03:26] <gyaresu> ToddEDM2: You know the wireless aln device name
[03:26] <lap> what is the difference between desktop and alternate cd ?
[03:26] <bulmer> jake333: is it a .deb package? what do you have ?
[03:26] <leeba> riqz: try "dhcpcd eth0" then "ifconfig eth0 up", replacing eth0 for the proper device name
[03:26] <ToddEDM2> gyaresu i have network-manager installed now
[03:26] <kelsin> kingcobra: if you come in later maybe there will be someone that has that card that can help better
[03:26] <jake333> bulmer: its a .tar.gz
[03:26] <terroris> I need some help with getting wireless to work, if anybody can help me
[03:27] <gyaresu> ToddEDM2: I'm a cli guy. Do you want to open a terminal?
[03:27] <gyaresu> terroris: I was helping you. Did you find the device info?
[03:27] <terroris> yes
[03:27] <lap> Someone can tell me the differences between Alternate and Desktop CD ?
[03:27] <kingcobra> kelsin: thanx very much
[03:27] <bulmer> jake333: you need to untar to see the contents..its a source file? then you need to compile it first, if its binary..an rpm inside tar.gz?
[03:27] <ToddEDM2> i have a terminal open
[03:27] <gyaresu> terroris: Care to be more specific?
[03:27] <wolfwalker> Okay, so Ubuntu and its derivatives won't run on my computer. No versions of it will. Debian won't, Knoppix will, Mandriva will, DSL will. Something to do with the motherboard I think.
[03:27] <arooni> does anyone know how to use dia
[03:27] <ToddEDM2> terroris... im having the same problem
[03:27] <kitche> lap: desktop boots into a live system and you can install from there alternate is just the installer in textmode
[03:27] <wolfwalker> So what distro is most like Ubuntu?
[03:27] <wolfwalker> I need an alternate
[03:28] <terroris> gyaresu: linksys wmp54g v4.1
[03:28] <gyaresu> ToddEDM2: iwconifg
[03:28] <garfield1> okay....I'll throw this one out there for anyone who has any ideas....I installed 6.10 on my external HDD today and it was doing fine the first 2-3 times I loaded it.  I then left it and booted back to XP, now when I try to load it, it will give me the start-up screen with the ubuntu logo and the progress bar.  The bar does not move for ~5mins and then it goes to a screen that tells me...
[03:28] <garfield1> ..."Buffer I/O error on devide sdd, logical block 0" -- also: /bin/sh: couldn't access tty; job control turned off
[03:28] <joshjosh> wolfwakler: Debian or LinuxMint, SimplyMepis...those
[03:28] <leeba> riqz:that was what yousaid to type in the command line to enter my  IP address for my server
[03:28] <gyaresu> !wifi
[03:28] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:28] <lap> kitche alternate cd install the same way as debian ?
[03:28] <kelsin> jake333: do you just want to share itunes music? Rythmbox in gnome can do that as well (if you didn't want a server app to do it)
[03:28] <wolfwalker> LinuxMint?
[03:28] <ToddEDM2> ath0
[03:28] <terroris> ...
[03:28] <ryanakca> My mom has a Lexmark E210 printer plugged into her Windows XP SP2 computer, upstairs, with the ip of 192.168.1.102 and the hostname of BIG-DEN. This computer has the ip of 192.168.1.100 and the hostname sigma. How do I print on the E210 from this computer?
[03:28] <riqz> leeba: hehe dont think it was me
[03:28] <leeba> so I do sudo then that riqz?
[03:28] <leeba> oh
[03:28] <leeba> oops

[03:30] <terroris> !wifi
[03:30] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:30] <bulmer> jake333: you need to prefix your responses
[03:30] <fruitboy> Ubuntu is a great OS...

[03:30] <fruitboy> I'm using it at this very moment.

[03:30] <jake333> bulmer: sry
[03:30] <fruitboy> Would anyone here be able to assist me in installing Quake III?
[03:30] <bulmer> jake333: i cant track all the messages flying trough..you must prefix with a nick

[03:31] <kelsin> jin: a wsyiwyg editor or just a good tex editor with great latex support?
[03:31] <kelsin> jin: text*
[03:31] <lap> kitche i hate that ubuntu install 2gb of crap with desktop, i want a cd that will install debian-like system.
[03:31] <jin> kelsin, I prefer a wsyiwyg editor
[03:31] <merc> trying to get it so my web server (apache2) to have a custom 404 page.  i made .htaccess file, put in "ErrorDocument 404 /errorpage/404.html" (which is the relative path to the custom 404 page), yet i dont get my custom page, any ideas?
[03:31] <bulmer> jake333:  make a file? touch filename
[03:31] <lap> after debian install 60meg is used instead of 2gb hehe
[03:31] <kelsin> lap: use the alternate cd, you can install just a text system then add what you want
[03:31] <jake333> bulmer: folder i mean
[03:31] <lap> kelsin Nice, thx.
[03:31] <jake333> bulmer:  to install the dss in
[03:32] <kelsin> lap: I forget the exact options but their in the boot menu of the alternate cd (hit f3 and f4 etc)
[03:32] <bulmer> jake333: mkdir to create a directory
[03:32] <larson9999> linux rocks!
[03:32] <jake333> ok
[03:32] <jake333> so cd
[03:32] <leeba> so i use : sudo dhcpcd eth0
[03:32] <lap> thx a lot
[03:32] <jake333> bulmer:  ok so cd to the folder
[03:32] <lap> cya
[03:32] <gyaresu> terroris: sorry the only link i could find is for using ndiswrapper. You might want to search the forums.
[03:32] <jake333> bulmer:  then mkdir (folder name)
[03:32] <bulmer> jake333: yes
[03:32] <ToddEDM2> gyaresu, what was it i needed from iwlist eth0 scan?... i had a loooong list of stuff go flashing past
[03:32] <bulmer> jake333: you cant cd to a directory that dont exist
[03:33] <jake333> bulmer:  i know
[03:33] <kelsin> jin: sorry, don't have any experience with those :) good luck, only one I know of is Lyx
[03:33] <bulmer> jake333: mkdir first then cd to it
[03:33] <gyaresu> ToddEDM2: yep. 'iwlist ra0 scan'
[03:33] <kitche> lap: just nstall a command line system
[03:33] <gyaresu> ToddEDM2: that will list all teh networks the device can see.
[03:33] <terroris> gyaresu: do you know anything about using ndiswrapper?
[03:33] <ToddEDM2> ok
[03:33] <gyaresu> ToddEDM2: Connecting is another matter.
[03:33] <leeba> riqz: so do you know if i use--  sudo dhcpcd eth0
[03:33] <gyaresu> terroris: Yes.
[03:34] <ToddEDM2> gyaresu 'interface doesnt support scanning'
[03:34] <gyaresu> terroris: You would do well to find someones success story on the forums as a guide.
[03:34] <terroris> gyaresu: can you help me with that?
[03:34] <terroris> okay
[03:34] <jake333> bulmer: ok i did it and then do i go to the dirctory
[03:34] <terroris> gyaresu: I look on the forums some
[03:34] <wolfwalker> Does Mepis not believe in bit torrents?
[03:34] <gyaresu> terroris: I can help when you get in trouble ;)
[03:35] <bulmer> jake333: okay
[03:35] <aroman> hello
[03:35] <ToddEDM2> gyaresu, how can i run that network-manager
[03:35] <gyaresu> ToddEDM2: hmmm. What's the exact device. What did you do to install it? It may be using different drivers now that maybe you blacklisted before or something.
[03:35] <gyaresu> ToddEDM2: Do you have networkmanager installed?
[03:35] <aroman> while downloading torrents, I notice that using uTorrent (through wine) gives me faster speeds than, say, Azureus. Can anyone recommend a linux client that will work on par with uTorrent?
[03:36] <ToddEDM2> yes
[03:36] <ToddEDM2> i do
[03:36] <kingcobra> gyaresu: can u help me with network problem also please
[03:36] <owner> if i install ubuntu server edition can i install a desktop gui\
[03:36] <leeba> owner: good question.. i am trying to do that too
[03:36] <jin> owner, why would you need a gui for a server?
[03:36] <gyaresu> !ask | kingcobra
[03:36] <ubotu> kingcobra: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:36] <jin> yes, it is posible
[03:36] <gyaresu> :)
[03:36] <jake333> bulmer: Can i send you the insall readme
[03:36] <kitche> owber: yes just sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[03:37] <kelsin> owner: you can, just like installing anything else, for the full desktop install the ubuntu-desktop package or you can install any windows manager you want
[03:37] <bulmer> jake333: no, you can read it for yourself
[03:37] <wolfwalker> !mepis bit torrent
[03:37] <gyaresu> owner: Yes you can. Easily.
[03:37] <makuseru> how do i import a GPG key?
[03:37] <aroman> ToddEDM2: did you say "i do" to my question about the bittorrent client?
[03:37] <owner> im trying to install LAMP but keep getting errors
[03:37] <wolfwalker> :/
[03:37] <jake333> bulmer:  i cant understand it myself lol
[03:37] <ToddEDM2> no aroman
[03:37] <bulmer> jake333: learn about compiling and Makefiles
[03:37] <aroman> ToddEDM2: sorry
[03:37] <zigzag71> hello
[03:37] <ToddEDM2> np
[03:37] <bulmer> jake333: some tutorials on compiling is available
[03:37] <garfield1> hey guys, what options do I have when ubuntu fails to load and gives me a command line?
[03:38] <ToddEDM2> i was mentioning to gyaresu, that i have network-manager installed
[03:38] <joshjosh> garfield: Native or LIve?
[03:38] <makuseru> try startx and see what errors it gives
[03:38] <garfield1> Native
[03:38] <gyaresu> garfield1: Did you 'upgrade'? You probably just need to reinstall the nvidia-glx package ;)
[03:38] <garfield1> dual Boot, XP on an internal and ubuntu 6.10 on an external if that makes a difference
[03:39] <garfield1> nope, clean install, just today
[03:39] <kelsin> ToddEDM2: if scanning for access points with the iw tools doesn't work on the command line then you probably have a driver issue even if network-manager is installed
[03:39] <makuseru> try startx and see what errors it gives
[03:39] <makuseru> how do i import a GPG key?
[03:39] <gyaresu> garfield1: check the log files /var/log/Xorg.log
[03:39] <wolfwalker> garfield, does your bios even support booting from an external hard drive?
[03:39] <wolfwalker> That's the problem I had
[03:39] <wolfwalker> Crappy old bios
[03:40] <garfield1> wolfwalker: it does actually
[03:40] <jake333> bulmer:  can you just tell me, if i copy the folder to the directory can i run it
[03:40] <lap> Can we use beryl/xgl with fluxbox ?
[03:40] <kelsin> lap: no
[03:40] <lap> ok
[03:40] <kelsin> lap: both fluxbox and beryl are windows managers
[03:40] <exeakiel> Where can I get an installer for NVIDIA drivers
[03:40] <lap> only with gnome and kde ?
[03:40] <bulmer> jake333: i can just tell you, those source packages have Makefiles and README, start reading please
[03:40] <gyaresu> !nvidia | exeakiel
[03:40] <ubotu> exeakiel: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:40] <kelsin> yes since gnome and kde are not windows managers, when you use beryl with gnome you are replacing the default windows manager (metacity) with beryl
[03:40] <R3MiX> guys im havin some issues installing the fglrx drivers for my radeon X200...
[03:40] <garfield1> wolfwalker: weird thing though, the setup installed the boot file onto my internal and the rest of the OS onteo the USB
[03:41] <Shadowlander> Hey everyone.  Anyone know how to mount an lvm partition?  :|
[03:41] <lap> kelsin Ok, thx.
[03:41] <kelsin> lap: (you can always use fluxbox, fvwm, etc in gnome also for example)
[03:41] <garfield1> gyaresu: where can I find the log files?
[03:41] <kingcobra> gyaresu: im followed this howto http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=106846 and it did not create the new rausb0 in the end
[03:41] <andy05> when i try to install ubuntu-desktop on top of my server editionn using apt-get install ubuntu-desktop   it will not get the files from the internet
[03:41] <gyaresu> garfield1: /var/log/Xorg.log
[03:41] <andy05> it won't connect
[03:41] <mike-db> Can someone help me setup my Dell Wireless 1450 WLAN usb card?
[03:42] <asc> I'm having trouble finding what program is using the network.  I'm connected to the router for our home network, which is a laptop running Debian.  I find that eth0 is constantly moving 5 kbps (the limit of our mighty 56K modem) but no programs are using the network.  I'm using atop with the networking kernel patch to identify what programs are using the network, and it works just fine except in instances such as this.
[03:42] <makuseru> how do i import a GPG key?
[03:42] <bulmer> mike-db: what have you done so far as trying?
[03:42] <ToddEDM2> sounds like everyone is having wifi problems
[03:42] <kingcobra> yeah todd
[03:42] <asc> (and, yeah, if anybody can help me, I'd appreciate it)
[03:42] <mike-db> Ask on the forums but the guide that someone gave me was kinda confusing
[03:42] <ToddEDM2> no i want help first :P
[03:42] <ToddEDM2> lol
[03:43] <lap> kelsin Ok
[03:43] <jake333> bulmer: i did and its telling me to ./install
[03:43] <kelsin> makuseru: apt-key add <keyfile>
[03:43] <jake333> bulmer:  but i dont know how to do that
[03:43] <makuseru> thanks
[03:43] <Shadowlander> Has anyone ever tried mounting an LVM in Ubuntu?
[03:43] <riqz> arrenlex: thanks again im off!
[03:43] <bulmer> jake333: you skipped the configure and make stuff..read again please
[03:43] <garfield1> gyaresu: I can't access to the drive that has all of the ubuntu files...it is not mounted as I am running XP right now
[03:43] <jake333> ok
[03:43] <arrenlex> riqz: yw
[03:43] <mike-db> bulmer: Ask on the forums but the guide that someone gave me was kinda confusing. (sorry bout that)
[03:44] <lap> kelsin Thank you.
[03:44] <jake333> bulmer:  Expand the compressed (.gz) tar file and "cd" into one of the following directories, depending on the platform:
[03:44] <jake333>     DarwinStreamingSrvr5.5-Linux
[03:44] <gyaresu> garfield1: There is an ext3 driver for xp that allows reading.
[03:44] <bulmer> mike-db: well can you tell me what you have done, and maybe i can suggest some pointers?
[03:44] <lap> kelsin See you soon, maybe.
[03:44] <jake333> bulmer: thats the first step
[03:44] <neophiter> Is Rhythmbox just suppose to automatically detect daap servers (local), or is there a package I need to grab to enable that?
[03:44] <bulmer> jake333: correct, once uncompressed you cd to the dir
[03:44] <garfield1> gyaresu: excellent, I'll be back when I find it
[03:45] <gyaresu> kingcobra: what's the exact device name? That howto looks a little old.
[03:45] <jake333> bulmer: of were i want it, or were the folder that it is in ?
[03:45] <larson9999> edgy is running great on this laptop but the battery monitor seems a bit wacky.  it fluxuates between telling my i have minutes left to more than 10 hours
[03:45] <andy05> how can i get the internet to work to get ubuntu-desktop on my server
[03:45] <kingcobra> its rt73 usb wireless lan card

[03:46] <ubuntu__> can anyone pastebin their fstab for me?

[03:46] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[03:46] <bulmer> jake333: wherever you uncompressed it, thats where the directory is
[03:46] <leeba> I wonder if you know the best source to learn command line... i found this.. http://www.ircbeginner.com/ircinfo/ircc-commands.html but wondered if you know a better source
[03:46] <gyaresu> !prefix | kingcobra
[03:46] <ubotu> kingcobra: If you prefix your lines with the nickname of the person you're talking to, you have a greater chance that that person reads your messages
[03:46] <jake333> bulmer: oh ok
[03:46] <kingcobra> gyaresu:ok
[03:46] <leeba> oh..sorry.. wrong link
[03:46] <mike-db> bulmer: I did everything this guide said: http://ubuntu1501.blogspot.com/2007/01/fixing-wifi-on-dell-1501.html with no success and lots of confusion. I'm still not sure how I would do half this guide when I don't have a internet connection... =/
[03:46] <bulmer> jake333: where you want it installed is a different thing, you have to learn the Makefile  install target and modify as needed

[03:48] <ubuntu__> brb if it works :D
[03:48] <asc> Is there any non-graphical way to display network activity by destination?

[03:49] <jake333> bulmer: ok how can i compile, like what command
[03:49] <mike-db> bulmer: I re-installed ubuntu because I screwed up so badly from the last try with that "guide" so far I have done nothing as towards trying to connect because I know that there is no simple way for me to do it
[03:49] <asc> E.g. to see what computers on a LAN are using the network.
[03:49] <cycro> gyaresu: i have an ntfs partition, and an ext3 partition. i would like to have just 1 ext3 partition
[03:49] <bulmer> jake333: you must read the README file ..it has directions what to do next

[03:51] <gyaresu> cycro: so you're happy to nuke the ntfs patition? You want to use the whole driver?

[03:54] <Shadowlander> I had Fedora Core 5 installed, and had my data on a single disk, which was using LVM.
[03:54] <bulmer> mike-db: you have to figure out what you have before i spend too much time
[03:54] <asc> Is there a list anywhere of the programs in a default install that might access the internet without asking?
[03:54] <mike-db> bulmer: all it says is Wireless 1450 WLAN USB 2.0 DT Adapter
[03:54] <Shadowlander> I can see it now in gparted, but I'm not sure how to mount the LVM partition that has my data on it.

[03:55] <mike-db> bulmer: I'm already on it
[03:56] <jake333> bulmer: thnks for ur help i got it installed
[03:56] <ubuntu_> how do i know which daemons have started up in my sytstem?
[03:56] <K3nto> you know how in ubuntu, EVERYTHING you rollover gives you a beige box with a description? how do i turn it off
[03:56] <ubuntu_> How does INIT know which daemons to start? which conf file does it look at?
[03:56] <bulmer> jake333: im a bit harsh sometimes..for you to self help..
[03:56] <asc> ubuntu_: If you install sysv-rc-conf then run 'sudo sysv-rc-conf' the ones under runlevel 2 are those which start when the system boots.  You can use it to enable or disable them.
[03:57] <asc> ubuntu_: Probably also they correspond to the files in /etc/init.d
[03:57] <ubuntu_> Thank you very much.
[03:57] <bulmer> mike-db: also find out what chips it is and find the drivers for it
[03:57] <gyaresu> if the ext3 partition isn't the root or active (unmounted) then you can just use gparted
[03:57] <mike-db> bulmer: at the bottom of the page it says Hardware 64/128-bit WEP engine and AES Hardware Accelerator; WEP weak key  avoidance; CCX1.0 (including LEAP) CCX2.0, WPA and upgradeable to 802.11i mainly focusing on the 802.11i part
[03:57] <gyaresu> terroris: yo.
[03:58] <asc> (but I don't know if all of those are always run on boot or if they can be disabled or what.  sysv-rc-conf somehow uses its' powers to show you what's actually enabled, but not what's actually running)
[03:58] <comradec> is there a windows manager with just a launcher like mac that is minimal?  Does anyone know of a site that has an overview of all linux windows manager
[03:58] <terroris> gyaresu: I need help running ndiswrapper
[03:58] <Shadowlander> ubuntu_: You can see the running processes through the System -> Administration -> System Monitor option in the menu as well
[03:58] <terroris> gyaresu: i installed the utils through the spm
[03:58] <gyaresu> terroris: was yours the rt73?
[03:58] <bulmer> mike-db: okay, you found the driver for it? preferably linux version
[03:59] <asc> comradec: most of them are old and very ugly.  But there is a site somewhere....
[03:59] <bruenig> comradec, the launcher (I assume you mean the dock menu) can be had on gnome kde or xfce, just need to configure it
[03:59] <terroris> gyaresu: rt2x00
[03:59] <bruenig> comradec, you can get gdesklets, use their launcher, and then just remove the panels
[03:59] <terroris> gyaresu: buts a beta driver
[03:59] <bruenig> comradec, or there is something called kiba dock
[04:00] <mike-db> bulmer: no I did not thats what I'm looking for but I don't think there is one. On a page that a user supplied to me on the ubuntu forums all it say was "works on horay" or something like that
[04:00] <comradec> bruenig: I have xfce but it kills my gaming performance for some reason, when I switch to open box I get a lot better fps for some reason with my ati
[04:00] <bruenig> comradec, well look for kiba dock then
[04:00] <bruenig> since that is outside the wm
[04:00] <Jakob> im trying to scp a file on cross over cable but it keeps giving me a warning remote host id has changed host key verification failed
[04:00] <kingcobra> gyaresu: cant find package tofrodos
[04:00] <jake333> bulmer:  do i need perl to run .pl files?
[04:00] <Jakob> how do i fix this
[04:00] <gyaresu> terroris: Can you post the link to the guide you are following?
[04:00] <bulmer> jake333:  yes
[04:01] <jake333> bulmer:oh shit
[04:01] <jake333> bulmer: lol i need to install that first

[04:01] <ubotu> jake333: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[04:01] <bulmer> jake333: umm no swearing please
[04:01] <gyaresu> kingcobra: package?
[04:01] <IndyGunFreak> !botsnack
[04:01] <ubotu> Yum!
[04:01] <terroris> gyaresu: http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/Installation
[04:01] <asc> comradec: Site with lots of window managers is here.  You probably don't actually want to look through it.  http://xwinman.org/
[04:01] <jake333> all: i appologize
[04:01] <bsd> ee
[04:02] <K3nto> you know how in ubuntu, EVERYTHING you rollover gives you a beige box with a description? how do i turn it off
[04:02] <comradec> asc: I was there already but its like super outdated
[04:02] <mike-db> bulmer: yeah I found that page again and all it says for the chipset/driver is "-" so I'm guessing there isnt one
[04:02] <terroris> gyaresu: i found my chipset info @ http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/List
[04:02] <bulmer> mike-db: you probably may need to use ndiswrapper to use those drivers..
[04:02] <kingcobra> gyaresu: its part of howto u showed me
[04:02] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: swearing is minor compared to accidentally dcc'ing everyone..lol
[04:02] <jake333> bulmer: how do i uninstall it inorder to install after
[04:02] <asc> comradec: Not aware of a whole lot of new ones.  Beryl and the like I guess.
[04:02] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: are you the easily offended type?..lol
[04:03] <bulmer> jake333: README files has instructions for it? if not, i dont know what the install script did..
[04:03] <bruenig> I am not, I love offensive stuff
[04:03] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:03] <jake333> bulmer: ok
[04:03] <bruenig> I may act offended for irony sake occasionally though
[04:03] <gyaresu> !repos | kingcobra
[04:03] <ubotu> kingcobra: 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
[04:03] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: same here, rarely do i get truly upset/offended
[04:03] <bulmer> jake333: so you may have to open up that install file and find out where it install things
[04:03] <arrenlex> bruenig: You liking offensive stuff offends me!
[04:03] <ubuntu_> so what's the difference between /var/lib and /lib
[04:03] <aum> are there any programs which implement a virtual filesystem, based on a catalog of n CDs/DVDs, which prompts me for a given CD/DVD when I'm trying to access a file on that disk?
[04:04] <gyaresu> kingcobra: You need to fix your repos so you can install it.
[04:04] <IndyGunFreak> aum: good question, but i have no idea
[04:04] <bruenig> aum, wow, go buy another HD
[04:04] <gyaresu> terroris: Where are you up to with that guide?
[04:04] <comradec> asc: well most of the screenshots from that site are so old, like using netscape and stuff... I just dont understand how using a wm like xfce kills my fps and something like blackbox or openbox doesn't
[04:04] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: lol
[04:04] <terroris> gyaresu: the part about shooting yourself
[04:04] <mike-db> bulmer: which leads me to the problem.. that "guide" helps with the ndiswrapper but it is not help I just keep getting errors and also I think its for a old version of ubuntu
[04:04] <andy05> how do i install wpa on server edition
[04:04] <aum> there's a prog for *doze which can do it, called 'virtual CD'
[04:04] <gyaresu> terroris: I know it well.
[04:04] <IndyGunFreak> aum: any chance you can run it under Wine?
[04:05] <mortici> can anyone tell me how to set my default shell (when i open konsole) to be bash not sh
[04:05] <bruenig> aum, you could probably script it
[04:05] <ubuntu_> Also, I'm still trying to wrap my head around how drivers work on ubuntu....I know if you install a module for a device it works, but very different from windows I think
[04:05] <aum> i could build one out of FUSE I guess
[04:05] <bulmer> mike-db: you may get luckier in ndiswrapper channel for instructions on that
[04:05] <ubuntu_> chsh will allow you to change your shell
[04:05] <terroris> gyaresu: honestly, I dont even know if I have ndiswrapper installed properly
[04:05] <kitche> mortici: it should be bash
[04:05] <mike-db> bulmer: what is the channel? :P
[04:05] <jake333> bulmer: how do i delete a directory
[04:05] <ubuntu_> rmdir [directory] 
[04:06] <terroris> gyaresu: I read that I should already have ndiswrapper, and that I just have to enable it through the synaptic package manager
[04:06] <bulmer> jake333:  rm -rf /dirname
[04:06] <bruenig> aum, like have all the files symlink to a script which ejects the cd rom, and then prompts you telling you which one it is you need, if you know how to use zenity it could be all good and guied
[04:06] <terroris> gyaresu: which I did
[04:06] <ubuntu_> rmdir -r [directory]  deletes recursively
[04:06] <asc> comradec: Not many ideas about that except 'it's probably an X issue'.  Unless of course you're on really old hardware.
[04:06] <bruenig> or not it would have to open a prompt to echo it
[04:06] <mike-db> right click delete?
[04:06] <mike-db> =P
[04:06] <mortici> kitche: i did a custom install
[04:07] <mortici> kitche: it should be but it isn't, it starts as /bin/sh
[04:07] <kitche> mortici ok so your using dash instead if that's what your sh is pointing to
[04:07] <gyaresu> terroris: did you fix your repos and install the ndiswrapper packages?
[04:08] <arooni> how do i copy the ouput of my console
[04:08] <eric___> can someone help me with the new 2.6.20 kernel?
[04:08] <arooni> i'm having all kinds of problems
[04:08] <terroris> gyaresu: http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/Ubuntu
[04:08] <bruenig> arooni, you can > to a file
[04:08] <terroris> gyaresu: that guide says I already have ndiswrapper
[04:08] <bulmer> arooni:  use redirection
[04:08] <aum> ahh, there's a FUSEfs called 'hierfs' which does what I need :))
[04:08] <mortici> kitche: i ran chsh and set /bin/bash but when i open konsole it still starts as /bin/sh
[04:08] <bruenig> lazy
[04:08] <IndyGunFreak> eric___: 2.6.20? is that Feisty?
[04:08] <arooni> i dont know how to do any of this
[04:08] <terroris> gyaresu: ive finished step1 on that last guide
[04:09] <terroris> gyaresu: and part of step2
[04:09] <bruenig> aroman, just do the command and follow it by > file, so "ls > file.txt"
[04:09] <bruenig> s/aroman/arooni/
[04:09] <garfield1> gyaresu: I'm back, I installed new drivers so that I could read my Ext3 drives but it said "No EXT volumes found"...I don't understand what could have happened as I was successfully running ubuntu off of that same drive a couple of hours ago
[04:09] <IndyGunFreak> eric___: did you download Feisty or Edgy?
[04:09] <eric___> i finished compiling and installing it.... the problem is when i get to the GRUB boot menu, and i select kernel 2.6.20, it starts to boot, and i see my distro splashscreen.... but then it disappears and i get a screen that says something like busybox, and i think the problem is it cant find the drive im using for my root, which is /dev/sda1....

[04:12] <kingcobra> gyaresu: what should i do on that page u gave me to fix my repositories
[04:12] <billy> arrenlex, thank you.  when I "suspend" my computer, I cannot wake it up.  is there a special keystroke or something I have to push?
[04:12] <billy> perhaps it is a BIOS thing?
[04:13] <eric___> IndyGunFreak ??
[04:13] <MadP3nGu1n4> how do i change permission on a file im trying to configure

[04:14] <garfield1> speaking of GRUB....it is installed on my main drive, not the one where I have ubuntu....If I were to erase ubuntu, how would I go about getting rid of GRUB?
[04:14] <MadP3nGu1n4> trying to change the -vo in the file but i dont have permission
[04:15] <MadP3nGu1n4> chmod in terminal...and??
[04:15] <bruenig> MadP3nGu1n4, just gksudo gedit mplayer.conf and edit it

[04:16] <bigfuzzyjesus> how do i start ssh and apache2 on my server and how do i set them up to start at boot?
[04:16] <bruenig> |omegabeta|, first thing I would try is sudo apt-get install klauncher

[04:17] <|omegabeta|> bruenig: hehe that sounds reasonable :P will do

[04:24] <billy> matthew1429, i don't know a command, but you could use GIMP to do that, I think.
[04:24] <matthew1429> in batch?
[04:24] <wastrel> matthew1429:  you can use imagemagick for that, the convert utility
[04:24] <bigfuzzyjesus> Madpilot, 22, and yes, and its on a LAN so it shouldnt make a difference...

[04:49] <bulmer> kingcobra: easy, can you connect?
[04:49] <kingcobra> bulmer: no
[04:49] <nootrope> kingcobra, does it show up in Networking?

[04:49] <kingcobra> nootrope: theres wlan0 wmaster0 in networking
[04:50] <wastrel> Jaydouble1:  you know how to find the vendor & device id's for your device?
[04:50] <Jaydouble1> do I need those?
[04:50] <kingcobra> bulmer: are u sure its the driver thats not working tho
[04:50] <wastrel> i think so, in order to tell udev what to do with it
[04:50] <Jaydouble1> all i wanted to do is sudo chmod a+rw /dev/ttyS0 and execute it at startup
[04:51] <mbdl> wastrel: omg i feel dumb thx it worked!!1
[04:51] <TigerCR1200> What will give a smaller file size bzip or gzip?
[04:51] <nootrope> kingcobra, what do you get on ifconfig -a
[04:51] <rbil> nootrope: more than likely you'll not launch the gui desktop but will get to a command prompt. Then do this and it'll create an xorg.conf that will work with your new card:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[04:51] <ToddEDM2> what is the shutdown command
[04:51] <bulmer> kingcobra: you have been here what 3-4 hrs, attempting to connect..ummm i suspect thats where the problem is
[04:51] <wastrel> Jaydouble1:  that's a serial port, it isn't something for udev to do afaik
[04:52] <nootrope> rbil, thanks!

[04:58] <GooglyGabe> Nobody has any ideas about my "unaccessible clock"? :(
[04:58] <Pelo> np
[04:59] <kingcobra> network problems everywhere
[04:59] <Troy_McClure> alright Pelo, well i deleted one of my partions and need to copy some data from another one on the same disk, now linux will not read it, it only sees my unpartioned space on that disk (1 MB)
[04:59] <Matheo> nootrope mostly gaming
[04:59] <kingcobra> bulmer: what do u suggest i do
[04:59] <nootrope> Matheo, do your games support Linux?
[04:59] <bulmer> kingcobra: read tutorials is my advise
[04:59] <Pelo> Troy_McClure,  you'll need to format that space and mount it
[05:00] <wastrel> GooglyGabe:  prolly not a lot of ppl using ppc   you could try the forums  www.ubuntuforums.org ...
[05:00] <m__> wastrel: i didn't have to reinstall. just needed to reset the perms for /usr/bin/sudo:      chmod 4111 /usr/bin/sudo
[05:00] <mortici> just so you guys know i did a raid0 install where i couldn't use the kubuntu installer to do it, had to do it all manually (apt-get install ubuntu-standard kubuntu-desktop etc...)
[05:00] <GooglyGabe> wastrel: thanks.  I'll check those out :)
[05:00] <wastrel> m__:  but your perms on /usr are still broken

[05:00] <ubotu> The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[05:01] <kingcobra> bulmer:ive read and followed 4 r 5 on my own
[05:01] <cycro> is it bad if i dont have a swap ??
[05:01] <kingcobra> bulmer: plus the 3 2nite
[05:01] <m__> wastrel: right, but how will that effect me? most apps i've tried are running fine.
[05:01] <wastrel> cycro:  depends how much ram you have
[05:01] <Matheo> Nootrope, if its not talking about linux on the box i guess its not right?
[05:02] <bulmer> kingcobra: tutorial on networking? then you are an expert by now :)
[05:02] <cycro> wastrel: i have 1 gb
[05:02] <nootrope> Matheo, probably :)
[05:02] <smokie> hi
[05:02] <cycro> wastrel: what happens if you have less, like 256?
[05:02] <kingcobra> bulmer: completely :)
[05:02] <irunwithscissors> can anyone help me install Heliodor?
[05:03] <bulmer> kingcobra: then where is the problem?
[05:03] <Matheo> nootrope, k thx
[05:03] <kingcobra> bulmer: :)
[05:03] <nootrope> Matheo, np!
[05:03] <wastrel> m__:  general security problem and possible (unpredictable) misbehavior of apps which expect certain perms for something or other.  if you don't mind i guess it's no big deal.  don't setup accounts for other ppl on your system
[05:03] <kingcobra> bulmer: just that my wifi connection isnt working
[05:03] <cycro> wastrel: what happens if u have 256mb of ram and no swap?
[05:03] <wastrel> cycro:  the end of the world
[05:04] <cycro> wastrel: why?!
[05:04] <cycro> wastrel: what??
[05:04] <jake333> does ubuntu already have perl
[05:04] <Troy_McClure> okay so my partitions are detected by gparted, but they devices and not showing up... any reason why?
[05:04] <bulmer> kingcobra: well sometimes you have to give it a rest for a day or so, then the ideas pops in
[05:04] <m__> wastrel: ok, thanks!
[05:04] <wastrel> cycro:  heh if you don't have enough swap you'll run out of memory and things won't work
[05:04] <cycro> wastrel: can i make a swap if i didnt before?
[05:04] <Pelo> Troy_McClure,  are those partition activated ? are they formated ?
[05:04] <Troy_McClure> yeah
[05:05] <Pelo> Troy_McClure,  did you mount them ?
[05:05] <cycro> how do i make a swap?
[05:05] <smokie> how can i run C++ programs on ubuntu?? someone please help
[05:05] <kingcobra> bulmer: ill try that in a bit
[05:05] <wastrel> jake333:  ubuntu should have perl in the default install
[05:05] <techie_> Pelo, i restarted how do I mount windows now
[05:05] <blanky> smokie: run? just do ./nameofprogram
[05:05] <rylan> can someone quickly tell me what the command is to check the drivers for your graphics card?
[05:05] <Troy_McClure> ntfs partitions, it has the block device (/sda) but not the /sda1
[05:05] <techie_> or where do i find it.
[05:05] <blanky> smokie: to compile, sudo apt-get install build-essential and use gcc/g++
[05:05] <Troy_McClure> yeah they were working before...
[05:05] <kingcobra> nootrope: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8739/
[05:05] <wastrel> cycro:  you can make swap with fdisk if you have free space on your drive for a swap partition
[05:05] <Pelo> techie_,  if you followed my instructions it is mounted in /mnt/windows
[05:05] <mortici> omfg
[05:05] <cycro> !fdisk
[05:05] <wastrel> cycro:  or you can use gparted to shrink another partition to make space
[05:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fdisk - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:05] <Pelo> Troy_McClure,  then I don,t know
[05:05] <smokie> thanks blanky
[05:06] <mortici> the time adjusted to 1 day behind and sudo doesn't work anymore
[05:06] <smokie> are those just the packages i need
i followed your instructions but how do i find that folder?
[05:06] <cycro> wastrel: but how would i configure ubuntu to recognize it as swap?
[05:06] <blanky> np smokie
[05:06] <bruenig> Troy_McClure, May I have seen you in such made for tv specials as Planet of the Apes
[05:06] <Pelo> techie_,  nautilus , click the my system icon , browse your way to /etc  then to /windows
[05:06] <wastrel> !swap | cycro
[05:06] <ubotu> cycro: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
it does not show in Places as before
[05:06] <bulmer> mortici: boot off of the liveCD and then attempt to repair whats on your hard disk
[05:07] <Pelo> techie_,  once you have found it  make a bookmark , it will then appear in places
[05:07] <cycro> wastrel: thanks
[05:07] <jake333> wastrel: so is it safe to install a server that uses .pl extensions?
[05:07] <mortici> argh
[05:08] <wastrel> jake333:  i'm not sure what you mean by safe
[05:08] <jake333> wastrel: wil it read .pl's
[05:08] <kingcobra> nootrope: ar you stil about man
[05:08] <mortici> bulmer: can i copy whats on the livecd's tmpfs for /etc/modprobe.d/ to my hdd?
[05:08] <bulmer> mortici: you tried yet?
[05:08] <mortici> bulmer: no
[05:08] <nootrope> kingcobra, i take it that you're not getting a reference to your wireles card when you ifconfig?
[05:08] <sm0k3d> hey guys
[05:09] <mortici> but seems my sound doesn't work and it works on the live cd
[05:09] <bulmer> mortici: only one way to find out huh?
[05:09] <mortici> bulmer true true
[05:09] <kingcobra> nootrope: did u c the paste
[05:09] <nootrope> oops, no! i'll scroll back, sorry
[05:09] <wastrel> jake333:  you should be able to run perl scripts, as long as they're written correctly.  if a server is installing .pl files it may need perl modules you don't have however
[05:09] <mortici> bulmer: no way to clear the sudo issue?
[05:10] <cycro> wastrel: do you strongly recommend having a swap on a separate partition as opposed to a file?
if i go to systems there and then file folders within etc. no windows
[05:10] <bulmer> mortici: probably there is, but its easier if you have a root password
[05:10] <jake333> wastrel: ok how about darwin streaming server by apple do you think that does?
[05:10] <techie_> I could also go to place and then type the /mnt/windows and bookmark
[05:10] <wastrel> cycro:  partition is better yes.  and learning how to create a swap partition will be good experience :] 
[05:10] <nootrope> kingcobra, yep, you're not online on that machine...
[05:11] <nootrope> hmm
[05:11] <bulmer> mortici: thats why i prefer people to have a root password rather than using sudo..but everyone is disciplined diff way
[05:11] <Pelo> techie_,  not in /etc/  in   /mnt/ , sorry if I made a mistake , I've been typing /etc/ quite a bit today
[05:11] <bruenig> bulmer, what needs root you say?
[05:11] <kingcobra> nootrope: oh i know that very much so
[05:11] <cycro> wastrel: the website tells u how to add swap via file only
[05:11] <techie_> so go to mnt
[05:11] <chris__> what is the font used in the terminal, i really like it and would like to use it on dos?
[05:11] <nootrope> kingcobra
[05:11] <techie_> i think i messed up should i go back to terminal and see where it is
[05:11] <bulmer> bruenig: me needs root  :)
[05:11] <techie_> if so how do i do that?
[05:11] <kingcobra> nootrope: do you think wlan0 or wmaster0 are correct
[05:12] <bruenig> sudo -s not good enough?
[05:12] <mortici> bulmer: i thought i created a root pwd but i guess not
[05:12] <wastrel> jake333:  i know nothing about darwin streaming server.  you should check the system requirements.  if it just says "perl interpreter" you should be fine. if it says it needs some random perl modules, you may not be
how do I find what I wrote in terminal what was the command to see the listing
[05:12] <mortici> brb i guess
[05:12] <techie_> ?
[05:12] <jake333> ok
[05:12] <nootrope> kingcobra, i had the same prob and had to switch cards. the one you're using is known to work?
[05:12] <Pelo> techie_, did you do that  sudo mkdir /mnt/windows    command I told you do so earlier ?
[05:12] <jake333> idk were the requirements are
[05:12] <techie_> yes i did
[05:12] <bulmer> bruenig: actually its mortici that needs it
[05:12] <nootrope> i belive it's wlan0, kingcobra
[05:12] <bruenig> for what
[05:12] <kingcobra> nootrope: apparently they hav
[05:12] <wastrel> cycro:  make yourself a swap file.  if you think your system is running slowly because of it, you can make a swap partition later.
[05:12] <Pelo> techie_,   go to the terminal and type    cd /etc/windows
[05:12] <chris__> what is the font used in the terminal, i really like it and would like to use it on dos?
ok i went to mnt and i see the windows folder
[05:13] <kingcobra> nootrope: theres a lot of cards that use this chipset
[05:13] <techie_> what now?
[05:13] <Pelo> techie_,  make a bookmark
[05:13] <bulmer> bruenig: for getting back his sudo..i already suggested booting off liveCD and repair it from there
[05:13] <nootrope> kingcobra, this isn't a USB adapter, is it?
[05:13] <kingcobra> nootrope: there are a few guides for it 2 that seem to work 4 others
[05:13] <kingcobra> nootrope: yes it is
[05:14] <h3h_timo> hey guys, im using this guide to install a new kernel optimized for my computer, and im at a point where it asks for the family of my processor, which one should i choose for a core duo 1 (not 2) machine??? thanks for any help!!
terrific, it did work. Thanks.
[05:14] <Pelo> techie_,  no problem
[05:14] <wastrel> h3h_timo:  grep family /proc/cpuinfo
[05:14] <Pelo> techie_,  you might find this usefull  http://revision3.com/forum/showthread.php?t=84
[05:14] <nootrope> kingcobra, sorry but i don't know where to go from here. :\
[05:14] <jake333> wastrel:it says nothing
[05:15] <sm0k3d> hey, after i use "sudo apt-get install ..." where does it go and how can i bring it up to use it?
[05:15] <kingcobra> nootrope: ok thanx
[05:15] <wastrel> jake333:  you're probably fine.

[05:19] <Pelo> smokie,  try asking in #winehq
[05:19] <nootrope> kingcobra, try deactivating one of them
[05:20] <kingcobra> theyre both deactivated
[05:20] <Trini_Man> wastrel :there is no audio group
[05:20] <smokie_> nootrope, is there anyway i can go about it then, cos i cant browse directly while i am workin on ubuntu, i have to connect my fone to my desktop, the set up a lan wit my laptop than runs ubuntu
[05:20] <wastrel> chris__:  you mean the console font?
[05:20] <nootrope> it's being detected but hasn''t been configured
[05:21] <chris__> wastrel: yes
[05:21] <kingcobra> nootrope: when i activate either of them it does not find an access point
[05:21] <nootrope> kingcobra, do the Properties have anything other than DHCP?
[05:22] <Trini_Man> wastrel: there is no audio group
[05:22] <kingcobra> theyre greyed out until i enter info
[05:22] <Trini_Man> wastrel: i think i messed up some settings in my also a while back

[05:23] <nootrope> kingcobra, what's on COnfiguation?
[05:23] <smokie_> no,
[05:23] <bulmer> kingcobra: nope, but you can always delete them
[05:23] <Trini_Man> root owns it
[05:23] <Fuzzehskittlez> ok i got ubuntu up, but! at first when it started it said tere was a gnome error or something ,and my ps/p keyboard wont work...
[05:23] <kingcobra> nootrope:theyre greyed out until i enter info
[05:24] <h3h_timo> wastrel, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8743/
[05:24] <techie_> Pelo... I have one final question ... I have to install a windows program with a disk I have to link USB to pc via a cable.
[05:24] <h3h_timo> those are the obvious ones i thought
[05:24] <wastrel> Trini_Man:  its "group owner" (or however you say that) is  audio
[05:24] <chris__> wastrel: so is the font sarge16.psf or Terminus?
[05:24] <smokie_> nootrope, i am tryin to use my mobile phones modem
[05:24] <bulmer> kingcobra: you have read the tutorials, what does it says about /etc/network/interfaces ?
[05:24] <techie_> Pelo should i do something the usb first or ubuntu will recognize it.
[05:24] <nootrope> kingcobra, it can't hurt to delete them and rebooting with the USB thingie plugged in
[05:24] <wastrel> Trini_Man:  grep audio /etc/group
[05:24] <wastrel> chris__:  damfino :] 
[05:24] <Pelo> techie_,  a usb what ?
[05:25] <kingcobra> nootrope: its greyed out until i enable it and then i leave it at dhcp
[05:25] <nootrope> smokie_: thru USB or the RJ-11?
[05:25] <techie_> I need to send audio from a mini tape recorder to pc via usb.
[05:25] <Trini_Man> wastrel :audio:x:29:<me>
[05:25] <h3h_timo> wastrel, did you get that?
[05:25] <smokie_> yeah, thru USB, its a curitel 8900 fone
I have the installation disk from xp but do not know if I should install that way via the cd? or should i look for something similar via the synaptic package
[05:26] <Pelo> techie_,  try pluggin it direct and see if ubuntu recognises it first , if it deosn'T  look up the model of your recorder in the forum
[05:26] <kingcobra> bulmer: there is loopback and rt73 which i added and doesnt seem to be doing anything
[05:26] <nootrope> kingcobra, what kind of accesspoint you trying to connect to?
wow they even have that too! models of recorders.
[05:26] <techie_> ok let me try it.
[05:26] <Trini_Man> wastrel :audio:x:29:<me>
[05:26] <wastrel> Trini_Man:  i guess you're in the audio group?   groups   should show it in the list.
[05:26] <evergreen> hi, i was wondering why I might choose vmware over wine or vice versa
[05:26] <bulmer> kingcobra: why you added loopback and rt73?  tutorials said you should?
[05:26] <kingcobra> nootrope: my router
[05:27] <Pelo> techie_,  windows programs do not work in linux, you canot install them at best you can try running them on an emulation platform like wine  wich allows you to run some windows program, but try a linux sollution first
[05:27] <nootrope> kingcobra, what brand of router?
[05:27] <Trini_Man> wastrel : thing is xmms works with the audio but nothing else
[05:27] <exeakiel> How do I switch off compatibility mode off in WINE?
[05:27] <kingcobra> bulmer: loopback was there already and last tutorial said to add rt73
[05:27] <wastrel> h3h_timo: interesiting, i dunno.  i just have i686.  maybe ask in #linux..
[05:27] <azrael__> Hey, I've got an ubuntu edgy machine here which hangs for a long time when logging into gnome.
[05:27] <Fuzzehskittlez>  ok i got ubuntu up, but! at first when it started it said tere was a gnome error or something ,and my ps keyboard wont work...
[05:28] <kingcobra> nootrope:peak
[05:28] <Pelo> exeakiel,  ask in #winehq
[05:28] <azrael__> No beryl, xgl, or compiz is installed.
[05:28] <azrael__> What should I check?
[05:28] <bulmer> kingcobra: what kind of computer you have and what nics are installed?
[05:28] <wastrel> Trini_Man:  check what output plugin xmms is using
[05:28] <kingcobra> nootrope: ill try deleting them and rebooting
[05:28] <evergreen> thanks Pelo
[05:28] <Fuzzehskittlez> ok i got ubuntu up, but! at first when it started it said tere was a gnome error or something ,and my ps keyboard wont work... can sum1 tell me Y?
[05:28] <nootrope> kingcobra, can you assign the wifi adapter's MAC address to a static IP and try changing the Properties in Networking to that?
[05:28] <chris__> wastrel: damfino, where can i find that on the system
[05:29] <Trini_Man> wastrel : Alsa  [lobALSA.so] 
[05:29] <wastrel> chris__:  sorry,  damfino = damned if i know
[05:29] <kingcobra> custom built comp, ethernet and ralink usb wireless adaptor
[05:29] <bulmer> nootrope: he has to also have the router assisn a static ip (matching)
[05:29] <azrael__> Specifically, the settings daemon is giving an error
[05:29] <chris__> wastrel: oh lmao, sorry >< :P
[05:29] <bcrowe> Fuzz, I had the same issue with Mandriva. It would die after about 30 seconds. I'm not a linux guru, but switched to Ubuntu and have not had an issue
[05:29] <Pelo> evergreen,   vmware is to setup a virtual computer inside your current os ie you run ubuntu and on that you create a virutal comptuer on wich you run windows,   wine lets you run window progs on ubuntu directly, sort of
[05:29] <nootrope> bulmer, that's ewhat i was trying to communicate :)
[05:30] <Trini_Man> wastrel : Alsa  [lobALSA.so] 
[05:30] <DigitalNinja> how do I print from Scribus? My printer is in the list but when I hit "print" it doesn't do anything.
[05:30] <wastrel> Trini_Man:  ok so your xmms is working but what isn't ?
[05:30] <hcook> word
[05:30] <bcrowe> Fuzz, have you tried a USB keyboard? whenever I have an issue, I jus run updates from pacage manager
[05:30] <bcrowe> usually fixes me right up
[05:30] <Trini_Man> wastrel : yes but like other audio and video players dont work
[05:31] <bcrowe> Ubuntu rocks
[05:31] <Pelo> we know
[05:31] <wastrel> Trini_Man:  except as root?
[05:31] <Fuzzehskittlez> im using usb now and its working, the num lock on the ps keyboard is lite up bit wont do anyting when kerys are pressed, its prolly jus in wrong spot
[05:31] <Fuzzehskittlez> but do u no why it said gnome error when i started?
[05:31] <Trini_Man> wastrel : well 'sudo'
[05:31] <kingcobra> bulmer:custom built comp, ethernet and ralink usb wireless adaptor
nothing is happening but he recorder is panasonic ic recorder  RR-US380 how do i find this and see what to do?
[05:31] <Fuzzehskittlez> wuts pacage manager?
[05:31] <wastrel> Trini_Man:  i dunno.
[05:32] <Trini_Man> wastrel : i think its permissions with libs
[05:32] <chris__> wastrel: terminal font= Terminus :D
meaning I do not hear any sound of Ubuntu recognizing the usb?
[05:32] <bulmer> kingcobra: and those two interfaces do appear in /etc/network/interaces right?
[05:32] <Fuzzehskittlez> ok well il be back, im guna install it now, its just runnin atm
[05:32] <bcrowe> nope, sorry. Only been running Ubuntu for about 4 months at home. I'm a Network/ Server guy for a big M$-centric company
[05:32] <kingcobra> bulmer: no they dont
[05:32] <Pelo> techie_,   does a new icon appear on your desktop when you plug the device in ?
[05:32] <nootrope> kingcobra, does the Peak allow you to assign a static IP to the wifi adapter's MAC address?
[05:32] <bcrowe> Synaptic
nothing
[05:32] <wastrel> bcrowe:  will you be my personal windows consultant?
[05:33] <wastrel> :] 
[05:33] <slavik> well, time to play whack-a-mao ... I hope they don't multiply too fast
[05:33] <evergreen> pelo> so if I were to aim for just speed and only windows apps, wine would be best?
previously I was helped to recognize ubuntu in reading my cdroms
[05:33] <Pelo> techie_,  search for the model number here http://www.ubuntuforums.org/  and go to the panasonic website and see if they have drivers for linux
[05:33] <bulmer> kingcobra: well they must have an entry in that file or else you wont get it working
[05:33] <bcrowe> what apps, Evergreen?
[05:33] <evergreen> bcrowe: dragon naturally speaking
[05:33] <Pelo> evergreen,  I suggest wine
[05:33] <evergreen> and some old basic accounting programs
[05:33] <evergreen> thanks
[05:33] <evergreen> :)
[05:34] <bcrowe> hmmm, I haven't tried that one...I'm sure there's about 100 open-source opions
[05:34] <bcrowe> options
[05:34] <kingcobra> bulmer: ok what should they be entered as
[05:34] <Pelo> evergreen,  there are some decent linux accounting apps you should look into,  grisbi and gnucash
[05:34] <wastrel> gnucash has got a pretty steep learning curve imho
[05:34] <Pelo> grisbi is very nice
[05:34] <Pelo> and getting better
[05:34] <kingcobra> bulmer: there was other settings had to be entered with rt73 when i put that in
[05:35] <Pelo> gnucash is for real accountants
[05:35] <evergreen> Pelo: I'll look into those, although I took a look at gnucash and it seemed like a version of Quicken for windows, which doesn't have the features I'm looking for
[05:35] <bulmer> kingcobra: the tutorial explained it right?
[05:35] <sevenpacks> evergreen,  I happened to see a big "evergreen" painted on a cargo ship
[05:36] <kingcobra> bulmer: not for all interfaces
[05:36] <Pelo> evergreen, gnucash is nothing like the quicken I used,  but suite yourself,
[05:36] <kingcobra> bulmer: just for rt73
[05:36] <bulmer> kingcobra: for the ethernet it shoudl be pretty straight forward
[05:36] <Fuzzehskittlez> um i clicked install but its on the time thing and it wont let me click anything but minimize and maximize and it wont close...
[05:36] <evergreen> pelo: I was specifically looking for one that would calculate payroll taxes
[05:36] <sevenpacks> Pelo,  do foss guys have cash?
[05:36] <kingcobra> bulmer: which interface is the actual adaptor
[05:36] <evergreen> sevenpacks: nice :)
[05:37] <evergreen> I'll check out grisbi though
[05:37] <kingcobra> bulmer: wlan0 or wmaster0
[05:37] <bulmer> kingcobra: they are all adpaters
[05:37] <nootrope> kingcobra, look for the MAC address
[05:37] <Pelo> sevenpacks,  it'swhen you don'T have money that you need to keep good track of what little you have
[05:37] <inpho> i have a USB external device and a secondary IDE harddrive both mounted on my ubuntu install, but they are both read only, how can i change this?!
[05:37] <bulmer> kingcobra: delete those two and reboot, and see what the system detectts
[05:37] <Charly> Anyone noticed that video players crash in fullscreen mode when firefox is open in compiz and beryl? They work fine if firefox is not running.
[05:38] <kingcobra> bulmer: ok i cant do from networking tho
[05:38] <Pelo> evergreen,  gnucash is what you need then,  but you'll have to so some programming to get payroll automated,    I think they have scripts you can use ,  Iknow they have tutorials on how to go about it ,
[05:38] <hcook> hey guys. just upgraded to feisty herd5, and everything is working great (even beryl/nvidia)...except i can't mount my nfs server. using the same fstab line i always had, but now i get 'can't read superblock' ...anybody know what that means? my other machine mounts it fine...
[05:38] <wastrel> evergreen:  check out freshmeat for something like that.  it's a less common need so is not as likely to have made it into an ubuntu package
[05:38] <kingcobra> bulmer: where do i delete them
[05:38] <sevenpacks> Pelo,  is it needed if all you have is in a bag?
[05:38] <bcrowe> Evergreen - Here's a compatibility list for Dragon on Wine http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iAppId=2077
[05:38] <evergreen> Pelo: awesome, thanks.  It definitely could be due to my own n00bness to the linux world

[05:41] <Fuzzehskittlez>  um i clicked install but its on the time thing and it wont let me click anything but minimize and maximize and it wont close...wut do i do
[05:41] <nootrope> kingcobra: to be clear, i meant, go into the router control panel and add a static IP for your wifi dongle's MAC address.
[05:41] <emet> kelsin, k
[05:41] <kelsin> emet: you can also use programs like Alacarte to edit the menu
[05:41] <Pelo> later folks
[05:41] <kelsin> emet: and of course, for system wide: /usr/share/applications
[05:41] <nootrope> kingcobra, i take it that the machine will go online if you just ethernet to the router directly?

[05:43] <evergreen> hrm...I'm having problems with installing programs though

[05:44] <nootrope> kingcobra, can you get into the router control panel without having to hardwire to it?
[05:44] <kelsin> evergreen: what features you want that aren't in gnucash :)
[05:44] <kingcobra> bulmer: or remove them completely
[05:44] <Fuzzehskittlez>  um i clicked install but its on the time thing and it wont let me click anything but minimize and maximize and it wont close...wut do i do

[05:45] <Fuzzehskittlez>  um i clicked install but its on the time thing and it wont let me click anything but minimize and maximize and it wont close...wut do i do
[05:45] <yurimxpxman> how do I use my logitech webcam in ubuntu edgy?

[05:48] <evergreen> is there a reason why I get these "overwrite" messages when trying to install wine?
[05:48] <Fuzzehskittlez> ur the first time i recieved attention
[05:48] <Shukhrat> bcrowe:is it free to download Oracle for Ubuntu?
[05:48] <emet> hmm I'm sure there are 5000 different ways to accomplish that
[05:48] <evergreen> and why even after I "overwrite" the apps fail to install
[05:48] <irunwithscissors> hey fuxx, ur talking to the bot.
[05:48] <kelsin> Fuzzehskittlez: this isn't some support pay for channel, if no one has or answer, or hell if no one FEELS like answering you, too bad
[05:48] <irunwithscissors> fuzz*
[05:48] <Cdeszaq> irunwithscissors: How would you like me to measure...ethernet distance, or physical distance
[05:48] <Fuzzehskittlez> huh
[05:48] <evergreen> kelsin: that's a shame
[05:48] <emet> one thing you can do is set up an FTP server
[05:48] <irunwithscissors> physical
[05:48] <emet> another I guess is to utilize samba and set up a windows network share
[05:48] <Fuzzehskittlez> how am i talking to the bot
[05:48] <kelsin> evergreen: agreed, hopefully as linux takes over workstations that will change
[05:48] <Fuzzehskittlez> o gay
[05:48] <Fuzzehskittlez> wow
[05:48] <Cdeszaq> emet: I would like to do it via samba...
[05:48] <evergreen> check printing would also come in handy
[05:49] <evergreen> which is fairly standard for these type of programs
[05:49] <emet> I don't have much exp with that
[05:49] <evergreen> there is one that is close to fitting the bill though
[05:49] <emet> !samba
[05:49] <statix> can I view my hd contents frm a live cd boot
[05:49] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[05:49] <Fuzzehskittlez> wuts the diff between the different linuxes?

[05:50] <nootrope> evergreen, i think gnucash prints checks
[05:50] <statix> can I share them once I do that
[05:50] <war59312> why bother even aksing a question here, way to many people asking them all at once and no really cares, kinda sucks, but yeah thats life I guess
[05:50] <Cdeszaq> statix: I think so
[05:50] <kingcobra> bulmer: i hav 4 interfaces 2 wireless 1 ethernet 1 modem showing in networking yet there is only 1 ethernet and 1 wireless in iftab
[05:50] <evergreen> ah well, that's a start
[05:50] <kelsin> Fuzzehskittlez: to put it extremely simply: Package Management, Philosophy, and in many cases distribution special goals
[05:50] <evergreen> I might consider revisiting that pogram
[05:50] <statix> is sharing files on a windows network easy to do
[05:50] <Fuzzehskittlez>  i clicked install but its on the time thing and it wont let me click anything but minimize and maximize and it wont close...wut do i do
[05:50] <statix> in ubuntu of course
[05:50] <emet> statix, you can use samba
[05:50] <jake333> i am getting the error chown: qtts invalid user
[05:50] <statix> do i have to
[05:50] <bulmer> kingcobra: i did asked you to reboot right? and see what is detected?

[05:50] <statix> linux doesnt have a network sharing protocol

[05:50] <emet> yes
[05:51] <emet> nfs
[05:51] <emet> but windows doesn't recongize it
[05:51] <statix> just not for windows networks

[05:51] <techie_>  Pelo, I even check here: http://qbik.ch/usb/devices/showdev.php?id=2391 no drivers available.
[05:51] <statix> it recognizes my win network
[05:51] <wastrel> livecd doesn't have samba eh
[05:51] <statix> thats kinda lame
[05:51] <Cdeszaq> statix: Usually...I am trying to get  some stuff to share itself right now, but my situation is a bit ... different than typical
[05:51] <nootrope> Fuzzehskittlez: don't flood.
[05:51] <Fuzzehskittlez> ...
[05:51] <emet> windows uses a properitary and slow protocol called SMB which samba emulates
[05:51] <techie_> Pelo, also I tried to use wine emulation for the program in xp but no luck

[05:55] <slavik> Fuzzehskittlez: don't change the time :)
[05:55] <Fuzzehskittlez> i alredy did
[05:55] <wastrel> kingcobra:  it won't help.  you probably have to rmmod the kernel module for the driver you don't want running.
[05:55] <Fuzzehskittlez> so wut do i do?
[05:55] <techie_> anyone? any way to transfer my audio recordings to Ubuntu via usb cable?
[05:55] <jrm4> Are there any bittorrent GUI clients that take new bittorrent urls from the command line? I like being able to easily watch progress, but I'd also like to ssh and add a quick new one, like say..from work, etc?
[05:55] <wastrel> kingcobra:  you may need to blacklist the module and reboot

[05:58] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:58] <techie_> bcrowe but I think the problem is that ubuntu is not recognizing or reading my usb yet?
[05:58] <BUMBACL0T> them sneakers on your feet cost $100 a pop; my people making 50 cents a day in sweatshops; to make them kicks, so you can look good; you think we open restaurants coz we cook good?; hell no, we aint got no choice, i gotta speak up, without me my people have no voice
[05:59] <nootrope> techie_ you can also try a demuxer
[05:59] <billy> greetings earthlings.
[05:59] <hcook> anybody know where the setting is in firefox to make alt-enter in the address/search bars open stuff in a new tab?
anyway for Ubuntu to recognize the usb or to even read it first?
[05:59] <Fuzzehskittlez> wich linux does beryl work best on?
[05:59] <BUMBACL0T> sabayon
[06:00] <billy> i have a very strange problem.
interesting but what is demuxer a program?
[06:00] <|thunder> works great on edgy
[06:00] <nootrope> statix_, you already tried booting from the knoppix live cd?
[06:00] <Fuzzehskittlez> sabayon or edgy?
[06:00] <bcrowe> I'm still a noob, sorry
[06:00] <nootrope> techie_, it allows you to rip the video and audio separately
[06:00] <techie_> bcrowe... thanks nonetheless
[06:00] <Fuzzehskittlez> and thunder wud u mind linking me?
[06:00] <kelsin> Fuzzehskittlez: sabayon is the official distro of beryl
[06:00] <techie_> nootrope it sounds good.
[06:00] <Fuzzehskittlez> o so sabayon wud be best?
[06:00] <billy> openoffice, for the menus and drop-down lists, is displaying english words transliterated into Greek.  Not Greek words, mind you.  But English words, transliterated.  wtf #
[06:01] <kelsin> Fuzzehskittlez: depending on your goals, if you're basing SOLELY on beryl then probably
will vlc help me recognize the usb?
[06:01] <gago0021> hello.. how can I have more than 2 desktops?
[06:01] <duckdown> Can someone tell me what I need to do to watch certain types of videos in Firefox? (The missing plugin says I need application/x-mplayer2)
[06:01] <nootrope> techie_: it's useful for all sorts of cool remix exercises. :)
[06:01] <Fuzzehskittlez> wuts the diffs betwen the diff linuxes kelsin?
[06:01] <nootrope> techie_: nope

[06:01] <statix> nootrope: is is a free distro...?
I meant if I have usb cable rrunning from recorder to pc
[06:02] <kelsin> Fuzzehskittlez: you can google that type of information, a ton of stuff can be different
[06:02] <wastrel> gago0021:  right-click the desktop switcher applet and choose preferences
[06:02] <nootrope> statix: knoppix is free!
so the problem then is the usb recognition
[06:02] <Fuzzehskittlez> ok ty
after that any program might be able to receive the audio info.
[06:02] <statix> knoppix.org? com? or net? two are fakes
[06:02] <techie_> Must think about this.
[06:02] <gago0021> wastrel: thanks!
[06:02] <nootrope> techie: don't know what recorder you're using but if there isn't a driver for it, it's not going to help. VLC just plays all sorts of video formats.
[06:03] <techie_> I am using Panasonic RR-US380
[06:03] <nootrope> techie_ don't know anything about it. sorry. :\
so far I have not found any drivers for linux. but I do have the installation software. will that help
[06:03] <|thunder> To all, I am trying to enable Fast Writes and SBA and AGP 8x for my nvidia driver. This tutorial say I need to add 'options nvidia NVreg_EnableAGPSBA=1 NVreg_EnableAGPFW=1 NVreg_ReqAGPRate=8' to /etc/modules.conf. But I dont have this file and I can't figure out where to put it. Any ides anyone?
[06:03] <techie_> ?
[06:03] <gago0021> i am having keyboard problems... how can i change my keyboard configuration? i want to redo the process for keyboard detection done in the ubuntu installation process..
understood.... I will think more about it.
thanks for the attempts and your suggestions.
[06:04] <nootrope> techie_: installation software for linux?
[06:04] <kelsin> |thunder: you can create the file and add those options to it
nor installation for the program that came with the panasonic recorder.
[06:05] <techie_> actually I do not know what is there.... it might have some linux.....
[06:05] <techie_> doubt it
[06:05] <|thunder> kelsin; ya, but my kernel wont know to use those options for my kernel driver.
[06:05] <nootrope> techie_: yeah, but it was written for what OS? probably Windows
yes windows
[06:05] <kelsin> techie_: what are you trying to install?
[06:05] <bcrowe> techie - maybe this helps... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=225179

[06:06] <nootrope> techie_: then it won't do you any good in linux.
[06:06] <|thunder> kelsin; because the fiel probably exists somewhere else by someother name.
[06:06] <techie_> I am trying to send voice from handheld recorder to pc via usb cable.
[06:06] <ToddEDM2> when i put the command IWCONFIG ... i see  IEEE 802.11g  ESID: """ .....
[06:06] <nootrope> techie_: add to that the whole USB mess and you're gonna have a hard time finding a way for that thing to get recognized

[06:07] <thoreauputic> jason0_: sometimes, yes
I am trying to send voice to pc so that I can create tapes in dvd for someone

[06:07] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[06:07] <Neronious> toddedm2: try ifconfig
[06:07] <jason0_> thoreauputic: do you notic any sporatic behavior when seeding?
[06:07] <techie_> nootrope... that's a thought....
[06:07] <thoreauputic> jason0_: no - it seems to be quite constant if that's what you mean
[06:08] <ToddEDM2> Neronious.. actually on my windows machine, i goto the router setup and i see the laptop connected
[06:08] <hcook> anybody know why alt-enter in the address bar isn't opening a new tab? and/or where the setting is for me to change it back?
any suggestions?
[06:08] <nootrope> techie_ what recording software you using on the uuntu end?
[06:08] <nootrope> ubuntu
[06:08] <jason0_> thoreauputic: right now I'm seeding a torrent with 1 peer connected. rtorrent was just sitting there so I started up azureus with the same torrent and it instantly started seeding.
[06:08] <hcook> er...in firefox, that is
that I have not figured out yet... I was going to ask
[06:08] <Sanjay> Hello?
[06:08] <jason0_> thoreauputic: but there are times when rtorrent seeds so it doesn't seem like a port problem
[06:08] <Neronious> ToddEDM2: ahh well i think its netview for windows
[06:08] <wastrel> hcook:  is your windowmanager overriding that keyboard combo?
[06:09] <nootrope> techie_: try Ardour
[06:09] <ToddEDM2> Neronious.. huh ?
[06:09] <thoreauputic> jason0_: I find rtorrent sometimes doesn't reconnect after stopping it and restarting
[06:09] <techie_> ardour.... through synaptic package?
[06:09] <foutrelis> morning :)
[06:09] <hcook> wastrel: hmm...dunno...
[06:09] <jason0_> thoreauptic: reconnect to the tracker?
[06:09] <Neronious> ToddEDM2: nvm i think its been a long day and i misread somewhere sorry..
I will search it and download it
[06:09] <ToddEDM2> lol np
[06:09] <thoreauputic> jason0_: it seems to have trouble scraping, yes
[06:09] <nootrope> techie_: i thik so. you'll need Jack, too, if you want to use audio from one app to plug into another
[06:09] <bcrowe> Techie: I would think you could stream it in to an audio recorder like Ardour or Audacity
[06:09] <jason0_> thoreauptic: what version are you using?
[06:09] <panfist> hey everyone, when i try to add a third party cd-rom repository it hangs on "unmounting cd-rom" even though it is definitely unmounted already, is there a work around for this, or another way i can add third party -offline- repositories, for example maybe an .iso file?
[06:10] <an0k> I'm having a problem with glxinfo. I've installed the correct nvidia drivers and it works beautifully, but when I grep glxinfo for direct it says No...anyone know the answer?
[06:10] <kelsin> techie_: I can't see your replies easily, just use the persons name and a colon instead of <name>, what type of handheld recorder are you useing?
[06:10] <bcrowe> gotta go, luck to all...
[06:10] <ToddEDM2> how can i scroll back in the terminal
[06:10] <thoreauputic> jason0_: the dapper version, whatever that is ( fairly old now)
I have the cable already
[06:10] <Nevermore> I'm having troubles with self harm.
[06:10] <inpho> does ubuntu come with a gay ntfs module that doesnt have ntfs write support??
[06:10] <nootrope> techie_ but if all you're doing is recording this as a one-off thing, setting up Ardour isn't worth while the trouble.
[06:10] <arrenlex> !ntfs-3g | inpho
[06:10] <ubotu> inpho: ntfs-3g is is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. It has been extensively tested but is still BETA software, so use it with caution. Installation instructions at http://lunapark6.com/?p=1710 (Dapper) and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009/ (Edgy)
[06:10] <thoreauputic> jason0_: although the Debian Sid version seems to have the same issue
[06:11] <nootrope> techie_ just use Sound Recorder
[06:11] <arrenlex> an0k: Running just standard X?
[06:11] <ToddEDM2> how can i scroll back up in the terminal............anyone?
 I am using Panasonic Ic RR-US380 which uses a usb cable from handheld to pc

[06:12] <wastrel> ToddEDM2:  the scrollback is deleted when you switch VT's
[06:12] <jake333> is untar the same as extracting the file

[06:13] <ToddEDM2> wastrel , IM NOT SURE WHAT YOU MEAN
[06:13] <ToddEDM2> oops caps
[06:13] <arrenlex> an0k: Why are you running xgl if you have nvidia?
[06:13] <foutrelis> jake333: yes
[06:13] <arrenlex> an0k: With xgl running, you won't get direct rendering anymore.
did you understand my last message.
[06:14] <wastrel> ToddEDM2:  it means if you switch to another terminal and then switch back, the scrollback is deleted so you can't see it even with shift-pgup
I will give that idea a try tomorrow. the point is that my usb is not recognized by Ubuntu so when the transfer takes place... it would not be accepted.
I need to make sure that Ubuntu recognizes that transfer!
[06:14] <kelsin> techie_: when you plug it in, does it not popup like a harddisk?
[06:14] <ToddEDM2> well i didnbt switch, and it still wont scroll up
no it does not.
[06:15] <nootrope> techie_ OH! your recorder only has a USB, no headphone jack?
[06:15] <an0k> arrenlex: Why doesn't direct rendering not work under xgl? And why not run it?
[06:15] <wastrel> ToddEDM2:  what terminal?  this is the console or xterm or something?   are you using screen?
[06:15] <techie_> nootrope.... that's correct
[06:15] <jair> hey guys if I am running a version of xubuntu, kubuntu or ubuntu, can I install the other windows managers on them for example -> kde in ubuntu?
[06:15] <nootrope> techie_ sorry. i was barking up the wrong tree!! :|
[06:15] <ToddEDM2> i pressed ctrl-alt F1
[06:15] <thoreauputic> jair: yes - install kubuntu-desktop
[06:16] <techie_> nootrope.... i understood you were trying to brainstorm!
[06:16] <techie_> ^_^
[06:16] <kelsin> jair: yes, almost the only difference between kubuntu, ubuntu etc is what -desktop package they install
[06:16] <nootrope> techie_ no removable memory?
[06:16] <thoreauputic> jair: you can install other WMs too - Fluxbox, wmaker, etc
[06:16] <jair> kelsin: Thanks
[06:16] <arrenlex> an0k: It has to do with the fact that xgl itself is accelerated, so the programs running inside it cannot be. I'm not exactly up on the technical details. You shouldn't be running xgl because xgl is for ATI.
[06:16] <jair> thoreauputic: perfect
[06:17] <techie_> nootrope... i might have one of those thingys a thumb memory as they call it
[06:17] <techie_> I might try that
[06:17] <hcook> wastrel: i just went through all the various shortcuts menus in beryl-settings, and alt-enter isn't in use anywhere by the wm near as i can tell...
[06:17] <jair> it will continue installing packages from ubuntu as well :)
[06:17] <jair> right
[06:17] <blanky> arrenlex: xgl is for ati?
[06:17] <jair> thank you very much
[06:17] <arrenlex> blanky: Yep. Isn't it?
[06:17] <blanky> hey what's up arrenlex long time no see! :)
[06:17] <wastrel> hcook:  dunno - i don't use beryl...
[06:17] <blanky> arrenlex: I dont think so... :/
[06:17] <nootrope> techie_ but the recorder doesn't have a removable memory like flash memory, right?
[06:17] <an0k> arrenlex: I thought xgl was for nvidia and axgl or something was better for ati
[06:17] <hcook> wastrel: it's not a beryl problem....
[06:18] <techie_> anyway thanks to all of you... I must go and take a few zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz since I get up early., too early.
[06:18] <techie_> thanks again.
[06:18] <blanky> an0k and arrenlex either one is for either :), just that some work better on some
[06:18] <billy> would my system even work if I didn't have the right driver installed for my motherboard?
[06:18] <blanky> anywyas, later guys!
[06:18] <blanky> have fun!
[06:18] <nootrope> np!
[06:18] <blanky> good night guys
[06:18] <blanky> later arrenlex
[06:18] <arrenlex> an0k: Other way around. aiglx definitely doesn't work with ati.
[06:18] <Cdeszaq> Does anyone have experience setting up Samba?
[06:18] <kelsin> gnus
[06:19] <arrenlex> an0k: I think they're more knowledgeable about this technical nitty-gritty in #ubuntu-effects
[06:19] <wastrel> you can't run 3d apps under xgl?
[06:19] <Cdeszaq> "Other way around. aiglx definitely doesn't work with ati." ...Not true...I have it working right now w/ my ATI card

[06:23] <arrenlex> Cdeszaq: Could you paste the output, please?
[06:23] <h3h_timo> kelsin, alright thanks ill wait
[06:23] <billy> how do i know that i have the correct motherboard driver installed?
[06:24] <kelsin> h3h_timo: make sure you have all of the gstreamer-plugins-* packages, like gstreamer-plugins-ugly etc from multiverse and universe
[06:24] <Cdeszaq> arrenlex: I would, but that comp is currently booted into Windows b/c I am trying to get some Samba stuff working
[06:24] <jake333> im constantly getting a error when i try to install darwin streaming server it says chown: qtss 'invalid user'
[06:25] <foutrelis> billy: Drivers are not needed. Just for the GPU maybe. It's all in the kernel. :)
[06:25] <dustin> hey i have a epson printer that i need to install how should i go aobut doing this   i run dapper... and i have never installed a printer under ubuntu?
[06:25] <kelsin> sounds like it wants to use a qtss user, do you have a qtss user on your system? If you either have to add it, or edit a config file for the program to change what user it's trying to use
[06:25] <h3h_timo> kelsin, thanks alot ill give it a shot
[06:25] <mrdigital> Hi im a Windows user.. possibly moving to Ubuntu any suggestions/advice?
[06:25] <naut> ! LaTeX Error: File `ifpdf.sty' not found.
[06:25] <naut> What does this error mean?
[06:25] <naut> anyone know?
[06:26] <thoreauputic> !install |mrdigital
[06:26] <ToddEDM2> mrdigital.... get it working properly
[06:26] <ubotu> mrdigital: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues
[06:26] <kelsin> h3h_timo: yeah, in gstreamer 0.8 they user to have a separate package, I think it's in one of the bad or ugly packages now
[06:26] <naut> I can't find anything intelligible thru google
[06:26] <kelsin> naut: you're tryign to use the ifpdf style file and it's not there, can you paste the latex file that you're using in pastebin?
[06:26] <h3h_timo> kelsin, should i restart x after i install those??
[06:26] <mrdigital> thoreauputic: i know how to install linux.. any one have like a photoshop(not gimp) recommendation for linux?
[06:26] <naut> ok
[06:26] <dustin> ahh maybe system administration printer printer
[06:27] <kelsin> h3h_timo: I guess I shoudl ahve asked first, what program are you trying to use to play these?
[06:27] <dustin> mrdigital, inkscape
[06:27] <dustin> mrdigital, what are you doing?
[06:27] <h3h_timo> kelsin, songbird
[06:27] <billy> foutrelis: thanks for response.  What is GPU?  I'm new to computing.
[06:27] <h3h_timo> kelsin, i could also try in exaile
[06:27] <gyaresu> !offtopic | mrdigital
[06:27] <ubotu> mrdigital: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[06:27] <kelsin> mrdigital: inkscape is for vector work, like illustrator, gimp is your best bet
[06:28] <dustin> gyaresu, never heard of an offtopic call about a program....
[06:28] <shatrat> billy, GPU means graphics processing unit, graphics adapter, graphics card, etc
[06:28] <billy> foutrelis:  would it be obvious if something wasn't right?
[06:28] <foutrelis> billy: GPU stands for "Graphics Processor Unit".
[06:28] <thoreauputic> mrdigital: there is also a Linux version of XaraLX, but not in the repositories
[06:29] <kelsin> h3h_timo: exaile, rythmbox and banshee and listen all use gstreamer and for those you would need those gstramer plugins, I honestly don't know about songbird
[06:29] <naut> kelsin, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8747/
[06:29] <krash123> i got this , 25gb for win, 10gb for linux, 1gb for swap, 2gb for home, and like 40gb missing, how can i make a partition visible for both OS's with the missing space ?
[06:29] <dustin> mrdigital, if you are still here i hear that cedega (sp) runs photoshop.
[06:29] <billy> shatrat, foutrelis: thank u.
[06:29] <mrdigital> Cedega?
[06:29] <kelsin> krash123: make it formated with fat32
[06:29] <h3h_timo> kelsin, nothing is working besides vlc
[06:29] <foutrelis> billy: If you are not experiencing any problems then most likely everything is fine :)
[06:29] <dustin> XaraLX is also good
[06:29] <thoreauputic> !cedega
[06:29] <gyaresu> dustin: for recommendations about 'possibly moving to linux'. That's just gonna flood this chanel with opinions.
[06:29] <ubotu> cedega is a project based on WINE, aimed at running Windows games on Linux. For more info, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cedega
[06:29] <h3h_timo> kelsin, it used to work before i installed dvd support
[06:29] <shatrat> billy, the things you might need drivers for are graphics card and wireless, most everthing else is supported on its own.  If your display is jerky or low resolution then you might need to install some different non-open source drivers
[06:29] <krash123> kelsin, but i already have 4 primary partitions.....
[06:29] <gyaresu> dustin: I'd answer it in offtopic though.
[06:29] <kingcobra> bulmer: interfaces now has rausb0 in it, iftab blank, networking has wireless connection with essid and password, iwconfig rausb0 but no essid, ifconfig shows sent and received data and the light is working on the adaptor
[06:30] <sevenpacks> I have heard of cedega is unfriendly
[06:30] <omega> elow
[06:30] <mrdigital> dustin: shoot over to the offtopic chan?
[06:30] <jason0_> Trying to compile rtorrent but getting this error during configure: Could not find openssl's crypto library. What library is this specifically?
[06:30] <sevenpacks> to the community
[06:30] <sevenpacks> cedega = winex?
[06:31] <kelsin> krash123: you have to make one of them an extended partition then you make more partitions in the "extended" one
[06:31] <FunnyLookinHat> jason0_, you do realise rtorrent is in the repositories, right?  : )
[06:31] <billy> foutrelis, shatrat: definitely no problems w/ the graphics.  behaviour of cpu frequency scaling had me concerned.
[06:31] <sevenpacks> winex != wine
[06:31] <bulmer> kingcobra: um if i were you, id remove the wep or wpa security for now until you get the wireless working
[06:31] <Kidge> hey guys
[06:31] <kingcobra> gyaresu: can you tell me what is wrong with my network connection
[06:31] <shatrat> billy, does it not scale up?
[06:31] <idiot_> are there any plans on putting in process level disk read/write requests or socket level packet/byte statistics available in the /proc file system?
[06:31] <krash123> kelsin, wich do you recommend me to make extended ?
[06:31] <sevenpacks> wine = crossover
[06:31] <kingcobra> bulmer: ok ill do that
[06:31] <Guest_370> Noob question--I cannot get any downloaded version of ubuntu to install. Have tried 6.06, 6.10, 6.06 alt, have changed HD, cdrom, cd rom media. ido burners, have burnt super slow, have downloaded via bittorrent, and the result is the ubuntu startup screen, then either a hang up after drivers installed, or in some cases, kernal panic. What is the world am I doing wrong?
[06:31] <arrenlex> sevenpacks: wine != crossover
[06:31] <jason0_> FunnyLookinHat: Yes, but I want the newest version.
[06:32] <wastrel> idiot_:  you're asking here?  :] 
[06:32] <arrenlex> sevenpacks: crossover = wine + hacks + money
[06:32] <sevenpacks> hehe
[06:32] <kelsin> naut: you have tetex-base installed correct?
[06:32] <ubuntu> HOLAAAAAAA
[06:32] <sevenpacks> but it's more friendly
[06:32] <idiot_> wastrel, should i try #linux?  where do you recommend?
[06:32] <cris> T_T
[06:32] <gyaresu> kingcobra: hey again. Where are you up to?
[06:32] <cris> guys
[06:32] <billy> shatrat: scales fine, it seems, but the 'range' seems a bit high.  2.4 GHz is lowest it'll go.
[06:32] <cris> feisty comes with compiz
[06:32] <FunnyLookinHat> jason0_, ooh.   try sudo apt-get install libssl-dev
[06:32] <thoreauputic> Guest_370: what hardware ?
[06:32] <joshjosh> how many people here have upgraded to herd 5?
[06:32] <wastrel> idiot_:  #linux would be a better bet.  we get mostly desktop support questions here.
[06:33] <kingcobra> gyaresu: hey im tryin to get my network working
[06:33] <idiot_> ok, sorry to bother, thanks...
[06:33] <Guest_370> p4 2.4, 1 g ram, seagate 250g hd
[06:33] <jason0_> FunnyLookinHat: th4nks
[06:33] <FunnyLookinHat> joshjosh, probably not many considering #ubuntu+1 is the feisty channel   : )
[06:33] <shatrat> billy, i'm not sure how to change the stepping on that.
[06:33] <FunnyLookinHat> jason0_, no problem, lemme know if it works or if you need more help
[06:33] <kingcobra> gyaresu: interfaces now has rausb0 in it, iftab blank, networking has wireless connection with essid and password, iwconfig rausb0 but no essid, ifconfig shows sent and received data and the light is working on the adaptor
[06:33] <Neronious> can anyone tell me a good windows emulator, i dont care which one just one that does the most crap
[06:33] <h3h_timo> kelsin, it worked until i installed dvd support with xine!
[06:33] <FunnyLookinHat> Neronious, you probably want wine since it's a) free and b) in the repos
[06:33] <naut> kelsin, sorry I just realised I have to go now
[06:33] <sevenpacks> Guest_370,  what's your bogomips?
[06:33] <thoreauputic> Guest_370: have you tried booting with acpi=off etc ? there are codes - check the menu entries on the alternative CD
[06:34] <Neronious> ty
[06:34] <eck> FunnyLookinHat: wine is not an emulator :-)
[06:34] <naut> I'll have to get back to this tomrrrow, thanks for your help
[06:34] <jason0_> FunnyLookinHat: Will do, I'm compiling this on an nslu2, should be interesting ;p
[06:34] <gyaresu> kingcobra: Using networkmanager?
[06:34] <FunnyLookinHat> eck, i'm so sick of people telling me that  : )    even when I didn't say the word emulator.
[06:34] <FunnyLookinHat> ; )
[06:34] <Kidge> man im too new to this and i have no foundation
[06:34] <sevenpacks> Guest_370,  is your bogomips larger than 4500?
[06:34] <Kidge> i dont know what to do
[06:34] <billy> shatrat:  so long as wouldn't create a problem.  i was concerned that it may indicate some problem with the driver.
[06:34] <eck> i know, i was just being pedantic :-)
[06:34] <Guest_370> problem is, I don't know that I can get into the menus since I am installing to a computer with no operating system
[06:35] <Kidge> i installed wine and gstreamer
[06:35] <Kidge> now what do i do ?
[06:35] <thoreauputic> Guest_370: the menus are on the boot-up screen of the CD
[06:35] <kingcobr1> bulmer: wireless security is gone now
[06:35] <eck> Kidge: what are you trying to do?
[06:35] <bulmer> kingcobra: what is result of   iwconfig rausb0 scan ?
[06:36] <bullgard1> I am new with irssi. I get the message: "No identd (auth) response." How can I get rid of this message?
[06:36] <thoreauputic> Guest_370: the *alternate* CD that is
[06:36] <thoreauputic> bullgard1: install an identd server like gidentd
[06:36] <gyaresu> bullgard1: There is an irssi channel btw.
[06:36] <sevenpacks> bullgard1,  can identd steal some info from the user?
[06:36] <eck> bullgard1: i would not worry about it, you do not need to run identd to connect to most networks
[06:36] <FunnyLookinHat> it steals your soul.
[06:36] <Guest_370> I haven't seen the acpi=off option yet. Are we talking 6.06 alt?
[06:36] <sevenpacks> hahaha
[06:37] <Guest_370> thanks for the answers, btw
[06:37] <FunnyLookinHat> your mom is a fake identd
[06:37] <thoreauputic> Guest_370: yes - I don't have it in front of me of course, but the "cheat" codes are there somewhere ( key combo is on the screen)
[06:37] <FunnyLookinHat> anyways, i'm out  : )
[06:38] <kingcobr1> bulmer: unrecognised wireless request "scan"
[06:38] <thoreauputic> Guest_370: alt-F* probably ( don't remember the number)
[06:38] <bullgard1>  thoreauputic: Thank you.
[06:39] <kelsin> kingcobr1: it's iwlist rausb0 scan
[06:39] <bulmer> kingcobra: i meant  iwlist rausb0 scan
[06:39] <bullgard1> gyaresu: Thank you.
[06:39] <kelsin> bulmer: :)
[06:39] <billy> :exit_earthcreature:
[06:39] <billy> swooosh
[06:39] <thoreauputic> bullgard1: :)
[06:39] <gyaresu> bullgard1: np
[06:39] <bulmer> kelsin thanks for correcting me..
[06:40] <bullgard1>  eck: Thank you.
[06:40] <kingcobr1> bulmer: yes YES yes there are 3 networks
[06:40] <kingcobr1> bulmer: how do i connect to my 1
[06:41] <boomhowza> hi, im thinking of installing ubuntu, but my family want to use the windows XP, now acording to the magazine, it boots the linux by deafult because of the dual booting, i need to know how to make the deafult boot windows, any suggestions?>
[06:41] <Guest_370> I'm looking now and I see the following: Install in text mode, install in oem, Install a command line system, Check CD, Rescue broken system, Memtest, boot from hard drive
[06:41] <Guest_370> then at the bottom...
[06:41] <kelsin> kingcobr1: two steps: "iwconfig rausb1 essid <essid-name>", then "dhclient rausb0"
[06:41] <jrm4> How does one change the default download location for the command line bittorrent client?
[06:41] <BeepAU> boomhowza, thats easy to do
[06:42] <kelsin> kingcobr1: replace <essid-name> with the essid of the router you want to connect to
[06:42] <boomhowza> lol, how
[06:42] <eternalswd> I'm having trouble setting up mpd output to icecast2.  How exactly do the mount points work?
[06:42] <kelsin> kingcobr1: the first command connects your card to the router, the second requests an IP address
[06:42] <BeepAU> it's as easy as editing one character in a text doc
[06:42] <boomhowza> ??
[06:42] <bulmer> kingcobra: kelsin gave you the steps
[06:42] <BeepAU> have you got ubuntu installed?
[06:42] <boomhowza> not yet
[06:42] <Guest_370> f3 keymap, f4 vga, f5 accessability, f6other options
[06:43] <boomhowza> just ell me what to do, and i will do it
[06:43] <thoreauputic> Guest_370: try other options :)
[06:43] <BeepAU> ok, just a second
[06:43] <_3uG_> does anyone know how to replace /usr/share/dict/words ?
[06:43] <boomhowza> thx ;)
[06:43] <kingcobr1> bulmer: ok thanx
[06:43] <Guest_370> ty going there now
[06:43] <kingcobr1> kelsin:thanx
[06:44] <owner_> can someone help me install lamp
[06:44] <ravehanker> hi, I installed kde on my system a few days ago and Now, some of my keyboard Shorcuts don't work in Gnome. How do i fix this?
[06:44] <_3uG_> i seem to not have one, even though it should be there
[06:44] <thoreauputic> !lamp
[06:44] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[06:44] <bulmer> kingcobr1: you're connected to the AP now?
[06:44] <shatrat> boomhowza, there is a file called /boot/grub/menu.lst which has the grub boot menu, just change the default boot number, or paste the windows entry above the linux one
[06:44] <kelsin> bulmer: now it's bedtime for me, sorry for stepping on any toes, kingcobr1: good luck :)
[06:44] <boomhowza> kk thx :D
[06:44] <quaal> does anyone use syslog-ng
[06:45] <BeepAU> $ sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[06:45] <owner_> when i try to install mysql-server it gives me dependency errors
[06:45] <BeepAU> then input the password
[06:45] <shatrat> BeepAU, it should be gksudo gedit, or sudo nano
[06:45] <bulmer> kelsin thanks for sharing
[06:45] <BeepAU> meh, sudo gedit works fine
[06:45] <arrenlex> !worksforme
[06:45] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[06:45] <kingcobr1> thank you kelsin
[06:46] <shatrat> BeepAU, it can hose your system launching gui apps with sudo
[06:46] <arrenlex> !gksu
[06:46] <ubotu> If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application> 
[06:46] <boomhowza> before i install, what is so different about linux then windows, and whats the features
[06:46] <quaal> uhh
[06:46] <thoreauputic> boomhowza: that's way too general
[06:46] <bulmer> boomhowza: umm can you attempt to read some from google?
[06:46] <quaal> boomhowza, www.google.com
[06:46] <arrenlex> boomhowza: More customisable and free as in speech.
[06:46] <BeepAU> thats a broad question
[06:46] <shatrat> boomhowza, its free, secure, more software available, looks better
[06:46] <panfist> is there another way to load offline repositories except a physical cd/dvd? synaptic won't get passed "unmounting cd-rom"
[06:46] <Guest_370> Hi, when I hit f6 it comes up with a choice of normal mode or expert mode
[06:46] <kingcobr1> bulmer: not yet, error for wireless request set essid (8b1a)
[06:47] <boomhowza> thx guys ;)
[06:47] <umop> I have a gnome panel and for some reason it is stuck in the middle of the screen- i can't move it.  Any hints?
[06:47] <boomhowza> can i use windows programs with it, cuz i have a few important ones
[06:47] <h3h_timo> boomhowza, look into every aspect before you jump in, that way you know how to fix it incase something goes wrong
[06:47] <BeepAU> oh, i wanted to ask a question
[06:47] <boomhowza> that wat im doin ;)
[06:47] <globe> is there a command line util to see how much of a disk is free?
[06:47] <bulmer> kingcobr1: well, play around with iwlist and iwconfig,  man these two...at least you are a step close now eh?
[06:47] <BeepAU> it's a n00b one, don't flame me
[06:47] <jlgaddis> globe: "df -h"
[06:48] <arrenlex> boomhowza: No. There is a special program which emulates functions of windows, but it will only work for a few programs, and the rest won't run very well.
[06:48] <h3h_timo> BeepAU, spit it out
[06:48] <BeepAU> i installed ubuntu on my laptop and theres no sound
[06:48] <kingcobr1> bulmer: im gettin close alright
[06:48] <BeepAU> what to do?
[06:48] <Guest_370> I still can find no option for acpi=off
[06:48] <Hmmmm> hey guys, i have an HP printer shared over SAMBA. the windows machines slow down when trying to print with it
[06:48] <ravehanker> hi, I installed kde on my system a few days ago and Now, some of my keyboard Shorcuts don't work in Gnome. How do i fix this?
[06:48] <globe> jlgaddis: thanks
[06:48] <shatrat> BeepAU, first check alsamixer, make sure its not muted or something
[06:48] <h3h_timo> BeepAU, not so noobish... lots of people have sound problems
[06:48] <shatrat> BeepAU, there will be a lot of mixer sliders, and some toggles and stuff.
[06:48] <BeepAU> its not muted
[06:48] <boomhowza> hmm... well, i was gonna use the linux for a private computer, can the windows view my linux files
[06:49] <h3h_timo> BeepAU, if alsamixer is fine, what kind of card do you have
[06:49] <arrenlex> boomhowza: Yes.
[06:49] <h3h_timo> boomhowza, yeah windows can view linux files, you will have to download a driver tho
[06:49] <ravehanker> boomhowza:- i think there is some software called Captain Nemo that will let you do this
[06:49] <boomhowza> can i hide it???
[06:49] <posingaspopular> boomhowza: try fs-driver.org
[06:49] <shatrat> boomhowza, ravehanker fs-driver.org is a good win32 ext2/3 implementation
[06:49] <thoreauputic> Guest_370: it's a boot line option - you just type linux acpi=off  if I remeber correctly - see if you can google for other options, or search the wiki and forums
[06:49] <gyaresu> boomhowza: these questions are better suited in channel #ubuntu-offtopic folks will help you there.
[06:49] <BeepAU> nvidia geforce 6100
[06:50] <h3h_timo> BeepAU, is that your video card or sound card??
[06:50] <shatrat> that's video
[06:50] <boomhowza> thx
[06:50] <BeepAU> video
[06:50] <BeepAU> i don't know my sound card
[06:50] <h3h_timo> BeepAU, what kind of laptop do you have/how new??
[06:50] <BeepAU> i just bought it
[06:50] <posingaspopular> BeepAU: lspci
[06:50] <h3h_timo> BeepAU, its prolly an hda card, and i had alot of problems with mine
[06:50] <panfist> i'm trying to add a repository in synaptic from a cd/dvd and it hangs at "unmounting cd-rom." is there any other way to add offline repositories?
[06:50] <BeepAU> is there a command to find out?
[06:51] <arrenlex> panfist: man apt-cdrom
[06:51] <posingaspopular> lspci
[06:51] <h3h_timo> BeepAU, yeah, lspci like posingaspopular said
[06:51] <posingaspopular> list pc information for longhand
[06:51] <panfist> thanks arrenlex
[06:51] <arrenlex> posingaspopular: I always thought it was list PCI devices.
[06:52] <posingaspopular> arrenlex: is that it? not too sure
[06:52] <BeepAU> theres alot there, what should i be looking at?
[06:52] <arrenlex> posingaspopular: Confirmed by the fact that it lists the pci address before each entry.
[06:52] <h3h_timo> BeepAU, search through until you find something that you think is for your sound
[06:52] <gyaresu> panfist: you can just add the packages to /var/cache/apt/archives/
[06:52] <h3h_timo> BeepAU, what kind of laptop?
[06:52] <posingaspopular> i guess you're right
[06:52] <quaal> does anyone know how to configure a syslog server
[06:52] <boomhowza> before i install, is it possible to uninstall incase i think its not what i need
[06:52] <globe> is there a way to tell the total size of a directory (and all its sub files)?
[06:53] <globe> (on the terminal)
[06:53] <wastrel> du -sh directory
[06:53] <h3h_timo> boomhowza, yeah, as long as you have your windows install cd if thats what you want to go back to
[06:53] <BeepAU> i've got a medion, turion 64 2ghz, 512mb ram ...
[06:53] <gyaresu> boomhowza: Why did you leave offtopic?

[06:56] <jake333> ubm: i know libstdc++5 and 6 are installed
[06:56] <ubm> jake333 try sudo apt-cache search libstdc++ first
[06:56] <anonymeeee> dunno, whatever came with my hp desktop
[06:56] <anonymeeee> gyaresu: i restarted my system, now I can only get 640x480
[06:57] <ubm> then give sudo apt-cache search libc a shot when you find the correct libs for whatever you are trying to make install then apt-get install

[07:05] <thoreauputic> Fuzzehskittlez: yes
[07:05] <Hudson> arrenlex that guide shows you how to edit fstab to use ntfs3g, The drive I have that is NTFS is an external hd that auto mounts on system load

[07:05] <Fuzzehskittlez> i cant find the exact place on beryl-project to download

[07:18] <BeepAU> h3h_timo, sounds good
[07:18] <h3h_timo> hey guys, do you think that if you would recompile the alsa drivers for an nvidia sound card with the same settings you would use for a hda-intel sound card it would work??
[07:19] <gyaresu> Hudson: Did you not see this line on that website page: /dev/<your partition>     /media/<mount point>     ntfs-3g     defaults,locale=en_US.utf8   0    0
[07:19] <LoBo_> hmmm is it possible to install ubuntu on an external harddrive and duel boot from that? or wold ubuntu NEED to be on my main hardrive partition so it can detect both OSs?
[07:19] <Hudson> gyaresu. What file tells the system to mount the usb drive
[07:19] <gyaresu> Hudson: You can probably add 'auto' to the options line: auto,defaults,locale=en_US.utf8
[07:20] <jake333> ardchiolle: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8750/
[07:20] <gyaresu> Hudson: /etc/fstab
[07:20] <Metellus> you can install Ubuntu on an external harddrive; you just might have to make a custom initrd
[07:20] <Hudson> gyaresu I saw the line, but fstab is not the file that mounts that drive. There is no mention of sdc1 in fstab
[07:20] <h3h_timo> BeepAU, this is all i can think of, im not sure if it will work, but its worth a shot, if it does work, let people know by posting the results on the ubuntu forums... if it doesnt work, post your problem in there and someone more qualified will help ya for sure..but here is my suggestion: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[07:21] <kingcobr1> bulmer: theres a major problem with my adaptor still
[07:21] <ardchoille> jake333: Ok, looks like you have a folder on your desktop named DarwinStreamingSrvr5.5.4-Linux. If that is the case, go into that folder and try tar xzf DarwinStreamingSrvr5.5.4-Linux.tar.gz
[07:21] <Hudson> gyaresu And i don't know what would happen if my computer tried to mount the same drive twice, Which driver would get used
[07:21] <kingcobr1> bulmer: it wont support any events
[07:22] <globe> is there some command that I can use to cp 50000 files in a directory tree?  I tried cp -rv but it keeps freezing after about 500Mb or so.
[07:22] <BeepAU> h3h_timo, ok, i'll try to follow that
[07:22] <gyaresu> Hudson: Have a look at this page: http://danielnouri.org/blog/linux/persistent-usb-disk-naming-in-ubuntu.html?showcomments=yes
[07:22] <kingcobr1> bulmer: it wont connect to an ap or use essid

[07:22] <h3h_timo> BeepAU, ill be up for a little while longer, if you have any questions someone in here will help ya, but good luck
[07:23] <Episcopus> if i install an update in edgy and don't like what it does to my system, is there a way to revert back to before the update was installed?
[07:23] <BeepAU> h3h_timo, thanks
[07:23] <jake333> ardchiolle: nope same error
[07:23] <kingcobr1> gyaresu: can you help me with a network problem please
[07:23] <LoBo_> no one knows about trying to dual boot w/ an external hardrive?
[07:23] <h3h_timo> BeepAU, no problem, i know how bad it sucks to have no sound.. if i could help more i would.. good luck, dont give up if that doesnt work, you will find a solution
[07:23] <globe> k0001: thanks, ill man it :-)
[07:24] <ardchoille> jake333: It could be that you already untarred it and that folder is the result. Is this an app you have to compile?
[07:24] <gyaresu> Hudson: Probably Gnome Disk Mounter is doing something wacky. (I don't use the gui stuff)
[07:24] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: I have tried several times but you keep disappering.
[07:24] <kingcobr1> sorry
[07:25] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: You've got the rausb0 up etc. right?
[07:25] <jake333> ardchiolle: idk it might be should i try
[07:25] <ardchoille> jake333: cd /home/jacob/DarwinStreamingSrvr5.5.4-Linux   and see if there is a README or INSTALL file there
[07:25] <kingcobr1> gyaresu: yes but it wont support any events like associating with an essid
[07:26] <kingcobr1> ur help is very much appreciated
[07:26] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: Do you have an access point setup without encrytion (just so we can make sure you can connect to start with)?
[07:26] <jake333> theres and Install
[07:26] <kingcobr1> i wouldnt hav got this far without everybodys help here
[07:26] <jake333> ardchiolle: theres both
[07:26] <ardchoille> jake333: Sounds like it's already untarred, read the README and/or INSTALL files
[07:26] <LoBo_> sigh screw ubuntu then

[07:29] <ardchoille> jake333: Are you doing ./configure and make and they aren't working?
[07:29] <omeil> at the ubuntu loading screen during start up it stops and spits me to a busybox console and says that crap. i usually just exit and bypass it and load ubuntu.

[07:31] <chalcedony> hi hi :)
[07:31] <h3xagram> i followed the ubuntuguide for java
[07:31] <globe> k0001: thanks again...thats nice
[07:31] <h3xagram> and i still get the error
[07:31] <cwillu> h3xagram: ran into that with limewire

[07:31] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: pastebin it you mean?
[07:31] <h3xagram> what was your solution cwillu?
[07:31] <cwillu> h3xagram: I kinda just kludged it though,
[07:31] <jake333> ardchiolle: go to apple.com
[07:31] <cwillu> h3xagram: what does `which java` say?
[07:32] <h3xagram> /usr/bin/java
[07:32] <arrenlex> cwillu: Why are you putting backticks on a command? xD
[07:32] <cwillu> h3xagram: and where's that pointed to?
[07:32] <cwillu> oops
[07:32] <karmax> Hi ppl! How can I configure PCtel HSP 56k modem?
[07:32] <cwillu> my bad :p
[07:32] <jake333> ardchiolle: http://www.apple.com/quicktime/streamingserver/
[07:32] <h3xagram> wheres what pointed to?
[07:32] <cwillu> arrenlex: cause I'm usually doing ln -s `which this` `which that` :p
[07:32] <cwillu> h3xagram: ls -l `which java`
[07:32] <cwillu> like that :p
[07:33] <chalcedony> i clicked on gaim and ended up clicking yes to software upgrades.. which .. this is a very bad night to do this. it says 127 packages and i thought my computer was sick/ now it says it's 'preparing packages' .. is there anything i can do to get this over with?
[07:33] <mbdl> ok... fine ill come back later
[07:33] <h3xagram> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 2007-03-03 17:46 /usr/bin/java -> /etc/alternatives/java
[07:33] <gyaresu> cwillu: h3xagram 'ls -l /usr/bin/java ;ls -l /etc/alternatives/java'
[07:34] <ardchoille> jake333: I have to have a apple ID and password in order to download
[07:34] <Episcopus> mbdl: it helps to say what you need help with so that people with knowledge in your problem area can respond
[07:34] <omeil> cwillu: installed system
[07:34] <h3xagram> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 2007-03-03 17:46 /usr/bin/java -> /etc/alternatives/java

[07:34] <chalcedony> i thought i really needed to reboot and shut everything down. i have to leave to be somewhere and need to work first
[07:34] <cwillu> h3xagram: probably just need to update-alternatives, setting it to use sun's instead of gcj
[07:34] <ardchoille> jake333: What steps are you taking after going into the folder?
[07:34] <jake333> ardchoille: just make one it takes 2 seconds
[07:34] <rbil> Hudson, when u installed that fuse driver for ntfs, did it create /etc/udev/rules.d/99-fuse.rules  ?
[07:34] <bulmer> h3xagram: you have run update-alternatives right?
[07:34] <jake333> ./Install
[07:35] <h3xagram> no?
[07:35] <omeil> oh hi h3x lol :D
[07:35] <bulmer> then you must and select the correct java
[07:35] <h3xagram> oh wait
[07:35] <Hudson> rbil fuse?
[07:35] <h3xagram> yeah i did that already
[07:35] <gyaresu> k31th: cwillu or better: 'dpkg --get-selections | grep -i java'
[07:35] <h3xagram> i sudo apt-get install sun-java6
[07:35] <ardchoille> jake333: Are you sure it isn't ./install ? Linux is case-sensitive.
[07:35] <rbil> Hudson, you were talking about writing to ntfs, no?
[07:35] <bulmer> h3xagram: you have run update-alternatives right?
[07:35] <h3xagram> right
[07:35] <ardchoille> jake333: Are you sure it isn't ./install ? Linux is case-sensitive.
[07:35] <Hudson> rbil yeah I was
[07:36] <bulmer> h3xagram: what was your command to do such?
[07:36] <jake333> its Install
[07:36] <omeil> cwillu: it started up because i just typed exit to continue the boot process :)
[07:36] <rbil> Hudson, and this is an external hotpluggable drive, no?
[07:36] <Hudson> rbil I'm trying to get my computer to auto mount an external drive using NTFS3g instead of the standard NTFS driver
[07:36] <cwillu> omeil: it's not set to come up in single user mode is it?
[07:36] <ardchoille> jake333: And what is that getting you? Another error about permission denied possibly?
[07:36] <rbil> Hudson, that's what I thought you were trying to do
[07:36] <Hudson> rbil yeah it is
[07:36] <chalcedony> 'preparing packages.. Installing software .. Please wait, this can take some time.
[07:36] <omeil> cwillu: that i don't understand. i just get that weird text at the start
[07:37] <chalcedony> i don't have time.
[07:37] <rbil> Hudson, I don't use that driver, as I don't use ntfs, but from what I've read, it should setup a udev rule
[07:37] <ardchoille> jake333: Sounds like you might need admin privs. Try: sudo ./Install
[07:37] <kingcobr1> gyaresu: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8752/ yes i meant pastebin
[07:37] <Hudson> rbil I just am apprehensive about using fstab to make another mount point because I don't know what if any conflicts would arise from trying to mount the same drive two times with different drivers
[07:37] <rbil> Hudson, does this file exist on your system? /etc/udev/rules.d/99-fuse.rules
[07:37] <cwillu> omeil: can you paste bin me /boot/grub/menu.lst?
[07:37] <omeil> h3xagram: u listen to sirius?
[07:37] <h3xagram> whats that?
[07:37] <omeil> cwillu ok
[07:37] <rbil> Hudson, you don't use fstab, u use a udev rule
[07:37] <omeil> h3xagram: nvm u have exactly the same urname as a friend of mine :D
[07:38] <rbil> Hudson, hotplug devices like USB drives are controlled by udev, not fstab
[07:38] <h3xagram> bulmer: no i didnt run that command
[07:38] <h3xagram> i mistook that for another command
[07:38] <jake333> ardchoille:    http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8753/
[07:38] <h3xagram> i thought you were referring to apt-get update
[07:38] <Hudson> rbil I figured there was another file that dealt with them, since there was not entry for the drive in my current fstab
[07:38] <bulmer> nope
[07:38] <omeil> !paste
[07:38] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[07:39] <h3xagram> bulmer, what trigger would i need to use?
[07:39] <Hudson> rbil also, when i tried to open that 99-fuse.rules with kate its an empty file, so no. I don't have that file
[07:39] <bulmer> java
[07:39] <ardchoille> jake333: It's installed :)
[07:39] <h3xagram> it results in unknown argument
[07:39] <jake333> wahts?
[07:39] <omeil> cwillu: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8754/
[07:39] <cwillu> thx
[07:39] <ardchoille> jake333: Look at line 104 in that last paste
[07:39] <kingcobr1> gyaresu: part of the reason i disappeared was the router here keeps resetting and the irc chat stops updating whenever the comp goes offline
[07:39] <rbil> Hudson, then maybe under another name, please look in /etc/udev/rules.d/
[07:39] <bulmer> i cant recall,  man update-alternatives
[07:40] <chalcedony> *how* long do updates take?
[07:40] <h3xagram> bulmer, what is it im trying to do with update-alternatives
[07:40] <h3xagram> install? remove?
[07:40] <bulmer> h3xagram: to set java
[07:40] <cwillu> break=bottom in a grub menu.lst file, does that do what I think it does?
[07:40] <jake333> i know that
[07:40] <Hudson> rbil would FUSE be in the name, what am I looking for? there are about 20 files in this dir
[07:40] <jake333> but i cant run it
[07:40] <h3xagram> ok so i would do --set
[07:40] <bulmer> h3xagram: there are multiple versions of java within, so you select
[07:40] <h3xagram> what would be the name and path
[07:40] <h3xagram> java and /usr/bin
[07:40] <h3xagram> ?
[07:40] <cwillu> omeil: gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[07:40] <jake333> ardchoille: i cant run ther server
[07:41] <ardchoille> jake333: From here, you really should consult the docs for that server as I know nothing about it.
[07:41] <bulmer> man upgrade-alternatives... i dont remember the details
[07:41] <cwillu> omeil: look for the line "# defoptions=quiet splash break=bottom"
[07:41] <ToddEDM> gyaresu: .. you around????????????
[07:41] <ardchoille> jake333: Looks to me like it's installed, now you need to learn how to use it.
[07:41] <cwillu> omeil: and remove the break=bottom bit (leave the #, and the rest of the line alone)
[07:41] <chalcedony> ((((( ardchoille ))))))
[07:41] <cwillu> omeil: then sudo update-grub
[07:41] <jake333> i know it like that back of my hand
[07:41] <ardchoille> chalcedony: Hi :)
[07:41] <cwillu> omeil: that should fix it
[07:41] <rbil> Hudson, I'm not sure what it'll be called or whether that package even installes a udev rules file? If you look at properties of the package you installed in Synaptic it'll tell you want and where all it's files are stored. Maybe that will give u a hint as to what udev rule it installs if any
[07:41] <ardchoille> :)
[07:41] <ToddEDM> anyways.... i got my video card installed!!!! woooooooo
[07:41] <jake333> ardchoille: i know how to
[07:41] <omeil> cwillu: i used break=bottom so i can edit the xorg.conf
[07:41] <chalcedony> good for you ToddEDM :)
[07:42] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: Hey. So did you follow that guide from !wifi on the rt73? Did you blacklist the drivers and install the latest raling driver etc?
[07:42] <omeil> cwillu: mustif added it permanently
[07:42] <ToddEDM> i can actually lok at this screen scrolling without getting a headache
[07:42] <gyaresu> ToddEDM: Yes.
[07:42] <ToddEDM> look
[07:42] <cwillu> omeil: ya, that defoptions line will re-add it to every kernel permantently
[07:42] <Dakana> Does anyone know how I would go about rolling back some updates so I can get ATI drivers working again on my Radeon 8500 card? I'm forcing VESA drivers right now in xorg.conf
[07:43] <globe> exit
[07:43] <cwillu> Dakana: in synaptic?
[07:43] <Dakana> I chose all of the updates after installing 6.10, and afterwards my screen was blank upon loading X
[07:43] <kingcobr1> gyaresu: i did evrything on the list but there were problems
[07:43] <ToddEDM> gyaresu:  , if you help anyone with getting thier nvidia drivers working, get them to instal 'Envy'
[07:43] <Dakana> cwillu: in anything
[07:43] <h3xagram> bulmer: where am i pointing it to
[07:43] <h3xagram> i read the manual
[07:43] <h3xagram> i know what triggers to use
[07:43] <omeil> cwillu: im going for a test run :) see what appens
[07:43] <h3xagram> but what is the location path?
[07:43] <cwillu> Dakana: synaptic lets you force a particular version of a package, if its still in the repositories
[07:43] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: Problems? specifically?
[07:43] <bulmer> h3xagram: man upgrade-alternatives... i dont remember the details
[07:43] <gyaresu> ToddEDM: Envy? Got a link?
[07:44] <ToddEDM> hold on
[07:44] <h3xagram> i already did that
[07:44] <bulmer> h3xagram: maybe set?
[07:44] <gyaresu> !envy
[07:44] <ubotu> envy is a Python script that eases installation of the official Nvidia and ATI drivers. Please see http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html . Developers may be interested in https://launchpad.net/products/envy - See also !Nvidia
[07:44] <Dakana> cwillu: do you know offhand if I'll need to roll back versions of x in order to use older ATI drivers?
[07:44] <h3xagram> im not talking about trigger
[07:44] <cwillu> h3xagram: I _think_ something might be bunged up in update-alternatives for java, as update-alternatives didn't fix it for me
[07:44] <h3xagram> and it is --set (name) (path)
[07:44] <h3xagram> but what would the path be?
[07:44] <Hudson> rbil is ntfs3g even the package I want?
[07:44] <bulmer> what does  upgrade-alternatives --list java say?
[07:44] <billy> greetings earthlings.
[07:44] <cwillu> Dakana: the proprietary drivers?  look for fglrx
[07:44] <ardchoille> billy: :)
[07:44] <rbil> Hudson, yes
[07:45] <ToddEDM> http://www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html - ENVY
[07:45] <cwillu> Dakana: are you sure its the driver though?  did you just update to 6.10 and it broke?
[07:45] <h3xagram> bulmer:
[07:45] <h3xagram> /usr/bin/gij-wrapper-4.1
[07:45] <h3xagram> /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java
[07:45] <h3xagram> /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj/jre/bin/java
[07:45] <ubm> billy please take us back to your home planet :)
[07:45] <ToddEDM> it automatically installs the driver
[07:45] <Hudson> rbil I found a file called 45-fuse.rules
[07:45] <Xenguy> o/~ Bring me rocks, bring me stones, so I can study them... o/~
[07:45] <vbarter> hello, anybody can help me? I have got en X window Error when booting from live CD, I got an error: no Device has been matched
[07:45] <bulmer> h3xagram: try --config maybe?
[07:45] <Hudson> rbil but all thats in it is one line KERNEL=="fuse", GROUP="fuse"
[07:45] <billy> ubm, open terminal.  type goto billy_heaven.  tell me if error appears.
[07:45] <kingcobr1> gyaresu: Installing the todos and fromdos utilities didnt work
[07:45] <rbil> Hudson, ok, that's probably what's controlling mounting that ntfs drive
[07:45] <Dakana> cwillu: No - I recently reformated and did a fresh install of 6.10 (I'm a new user; was using Windows), then updated through the update manager - I just selected all of them, and then it broke.
[07:45] <gyaresu> ToddEDM: got it. There's a factoid !envy. Thanks for that. Good info.
[07:46] <Dakana> cwillu: so then I changed "ati" in xorg.conf to "vesa" so I could use X at all
[07:46] <rbil> Hudson, hmmm, well you'll have to study up on udev rules. I'm sure there's a way to write the rule to mount that drive using that driver
[07:46] <cwillu> Dakana: blank screen, or does it crap out and give you a warning message?
[07:46] <Dakana> cwillu: blank screen
[07:46] <h3xagram> ok i figured it out me self
[07:46] <ubm> billy ./billy_heaven.sh :)
[07:46] <bulmer> h3xagram: yeah its  --config java
[07:46] <cwillu> Dakana: composite _might_ be to blame
[07:46] <h3xagram> thanks
[07:46] <ardchoille> gyaresu: lol
[07:46] <cwillu> one sec
[07:46] <jake333> ardchoille: this happened in windows the 2167
[07:47] <rbil> Hudson, maybe try googling for fuse+ntfs ?
[07:47] <rbil> Hudson, rather fuse+udev
[07:47] <cwillu> Dakana: try putting this at the bottom of /etc/X11/xorg.conf:
[07:47] <ardchoille> jake333: What is 2167
[07:47] <kingcobr1> gyaresu: 1 min
[07:47] <jake333> archoille: i had needed to install perl before i installed in windows
[07:47] <cwillu> Section "Extensions"
[07:47] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: no problem.
[07:47] <ToddEDM> yes!!! , im glad i could be of help, but actually a guy in damnsmalllinux channel gave me the link
[07:47] <cwillu> Option "Composite" "0"
[07:47] <jake333> ardchoille: the line in message
[07:47] <cwillu> EndSection
[07:47] <Dakana> cwillu: I hadn't tried that yet - I'll see if that helps
[07:47] <dhorn> Hey all, I'm hoping someone here has successfully compiled and installed kxdocker in gnome.  Any help is appreciated!
[07:47] <cwillu> set it back to ati as well, obviously :p
[07:47] <Dakana> hehe, yeah
[07:48] <Hudson> ty rbil I'm going to keep looking
[07:48] <ubm> ardchoille the man with almost all the answers :)
[07:48] <omeil> cwillu: nice stuff it woiked :D
[07:48] <jake333> lol
[07:48] <ardchoille> jake333: I'm confused now, there were only 105 lines in that last paste
[07:48] <cwillu> omeil: yippee :)
[07:48] <jake333> oh new paste lol
[07:48] <Episcopus> is there a way to undo system updates, like system restore in windows
[07:48] <jake333> jacob@jacob-desktop:~$ Couldn't find the en language messages file! at /usr/local/sbin/streamingadminserver.pl line 2167.
[07:48] <jake333> thats when i run
[07:48] <omeil> cwillu: hmm this means ubuntu is running with no flaws atm
[07:48] <kingcobr1> gyaresu: couldnt find package tofrodos
[07:48] <cwillu> weird :p
[07:48] <jake333> sry dont pastbien me
[07:48] <omeil> cwillu: well for me :)
[07:48] <gyaresu> rbil: Hudson Seriously just a line in the fstab will do the job. Persistent nameing (like I linked to) will take care of DEV names.
[07:49] <omeil> cwillu: have u installed WoW on your machine?
[07:49] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: I remember this from lunch... You don't have all the repos enabled.
[07:49] <ardchoille> jake333: I have no idea what a en language messages file is
[07:49] <gyaresu> !repos > kingcobr1
[07:49] <cwillu> omeil: I had it ya;  haven't played in a couple months though
[07:49] <jake333> ill go look
[07:49] <bulmer> en is spanish
[07:49] <bulmer> err english
[07:49] <dhorn> Does anyone here have experience with kxdocker and gnome?
[07:49] <omeil> cwillu: what did u use to install it on ubuntu?
[07:49] <cwillu> Episcopus:  not really
[07:49] <cwillu> crossover
[07:50] <cwillu> 6.0
[07:50] <bulmer> am confused..
[07:50] <kingcobr1> gyaresu: i think all 4 types are enabled
[07:50] <omeil> cwillu: did u pay for it :D
[07:50] <cwillu> omeil: apparently works with the latest wine too
[07:50] <cwillu> crossover?  yes
[07:50] <kingcobr1> gyaresu: is that what you mean
[07:50] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: So that is where you should have started your questioning. You followed the howto exactly and hit a problem. That's the question we needed.
[07:50] <ToddEDM> so now that i gave a lil, could someone help me with getting this sound working????
[07:50] <omeil> cwillu: hmm gotta see if i can get cedega or crossover
[07:50] <billy> test
[07:50] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: you should be able to 'sudo apt-get install tofrodos'
[07:50] <cwillu> omeil: there's a 1 month trial of crossover on codeweavers
[07:50] <Episcopus> i guess i start over with a new install then.  good thing i haven't had time to do anything that needs to be saved yet
[07:50] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: If you can't then you don't have a repository enabled that contains that package.
[07:51] <ardchoille> ToddEDM: I'd help but I don't use sound. Not even sure if mine works.
[07:51] <ToddEDM> cwillu: pokerstars????
[07:51] <billy> i hate that my own lines are the color grey.
[07:51] <cwillu> Episcopus: what happened?
[07:51] <Episcopus> wireless died when i updated after installing edgy a few days ago
[07:51] <cwillu> ToddEDM:  ya?
[07:51] <ToddEDM> www.pkr.com its better
[07:51] <Episcopus> i haven't been able to get it back
[07:51] <kquamme> billy: change the color in ur client prefs
[07:51] <cwillu> Episcopus: what's broken
[07:51] <ToddEDM> check it out
[07:51] <Episcopus> cwillu: now i am trying to figure out which update did it
[07:51] <billy> test
[07:52] <Episcopus> cwillu: wireless card disappeared
[07:52] <cwillu> !test
[07:52] <ubotu> Failed.
[07:52] <kquamme> hah, lol
[07:52] <billy> man, i suck
[07:52] <sevenpacks> billy,  try irssi or bitchx
[07:52] <billy> #bitchx
[07:52] <billy> ?
[07:52] <cwillu> Episcopus: module still installed?
[07:52] <sevenpacks> billy,  their color scheme are better
[07:52] <kquamme> i usually use xchat, using konversation right now
[07:52] <cwillu> ToddEDM pkr.com isn't coming up for me :p
[07:52] <Episcopus> cwillu: was there before updates, gone afterwards. i have been on here the last couple of days trying to figure out how to fix it and i can't
[07:52] <ardchoille> billy: irssi and bitchx are text mode irc clients. I use irssi
[07:52] <Xenguy> billy: gawd not BX - irssi please
[07:52] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: Have a look at my example one http://gyaresu.org/sources.list
[07:53] <jake333> ardchoille: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8755/
[07:53] <cwillu> Episcopus: which method were you using for it before?
[07:53] <Episcopus> cwillu: which module? device manager shows the card still exists
[07:53] <Neronious> ok i deleted /etc/fstab how do i get it back ?
[07:53] <billy> u guys talkin Hebrew.
[07:53] <cwillu> Episcopus: kernel module
[07:53] <gyaresu> Neronious: That is a very bad thing.
[07:53] <cwillu> or did it just work out of the box?
[07:53] <dhorn> Can anyone help me with kxdocker and gnome?
[07:53] <Episcopus> cwillu: i think so
[07:53] <Xenguy> billy: irssi (not bitchx)
[07:53] <sevenpacks> Xenguy,  i am a BitchX fan ^_^
[07:53] <cwillu> Episcopus: edgy?
[07:53] <Neronious> yea....
[07:53] <h3xagram> one more issue if someone can help me out
[07:53] <h3xagram> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8756/
[07:53] <ardchoille> jake333: lol, is that English?
[07:53] <sevenpacks> Xenguy,  i like its name
[07:53] <kquamme> neronious: yup
[07:53] <Xenguy> sevenpacks: you are insane then :-)
[07:53] <gyaresu> Neronious: Whatever you do don't reboot your computer till you've fixed it.
[07:53] <Episcopus> cwillu: yes
[07:53] <billy> xenguy: thanks :)
[07:53] <h3xagram> im trying to load frozen bubble :p
[07:53] <sevenpacks> bitch!!!
[07:54] <ardchoille> jake333: You need to find a perl guru
[07:54] <Neronious> no worries
[07:54] <h3xagram> something to do with SDL is preventing me
[07:54] <Xenguy> sevenpacks: name is fine, but it must die for its tag-lines
[07:54] <h3xagram> any help is appreciate :s
[07:54] <sevenpacks> o.o
[07:54] <kquamme> neronious: ur fstab is kinda custom made for ur machine
[07:54] <kquamme> neronious: u could look at mtab and maybe reconstruct it
[07:54] <sevenpacks> Xenguy,  to own a good name is important
[07:54] <Neronious> mtab?
[07:54] <Dakana> cwillu: it appears Composite wasn't to blame
[07:54] <kquamme> neronious: yea, /etc/mtab
[07:55] <bulmer> Episcopus: didnt i suggest that old drivers might still be in  /lib/fimware/`uname -r`/    <-- `uname -r `of old kernel
[07:55] <cwillu> Dakana: k
[07:55] <h3xagram> anyone? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8756/
[07:55] <kquamme> neronious: do u know how to use the terminal?
[07:55] <Neronious> yes i have the gedit thing up for mtab now what do i do?
[07:55] <Episcopus> bulmer: yes you did, but i couldn't figure out how to use them instead of what got installed
[07:55] <kquamme> neronious: ok, open up a clean terminal
[07:55] <Neronious> k
[07:56] <bulmer> Episcopus: use symlinks
[07:56] <kquamme> execute " cd /etc" then "ls"
[07:56] <ardchoille> shriphani: Which one?
[07:56] <Episcopus> bulmer: i hadn't done anything since i installed edgy, so i just wiped it and started again, hoping i could figure out which update caused the problem so i could report it
[07:56] <Xenguy> shriphani: which one?
[07:56] <Episcopus> !symlinks
[07:56] <shriphani> xnc !!!
[07:56] <ubotu> symlinks: scan/change symbolic links. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.2-4.2 (edgy), package size 8 kB, installed size 60 kB
[07:56] <Neronious> allright
[07:56] <kingcobr1> gyaresu: where do i download the depository that i need because i have enabled the 4 types locally
[07:57] <gyaresu> h3xagram: Did you build frozen-bubble yourself?
[07:57] <kquamme> neronious: look through the list and see if there is a backed up fstab
[07:57] <h3xagram> i downloaded tar.bz2 from their site and unpacked
[07:57] <Neronious> fstab.pre-ntfs-config thank god
[07:57] <h3xagram> their repository doesnt work
[07:57] <arrenlex> !libsdl-perl | h3xagram
[07:57] <ubotu> h3xagram: libsdl-perl: SDL bindings for the Perl language. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.20.3-5 (edgy), package size 872 kB, installed size 1784 kB
[07:57] <h3xagram> otherwise i would have simple sudo apt-get
[07:57] <Dakana> Is there an update log I can check out to see what I updated within my 135 updates I just did?
[07:58] <kquamme> neronious: now u'll have to do a copy and overrite the other one
[07:58] <h3xagram> downloading now
[07:58] <gyaresu> h3xagram: Then I reckon you are missing dependencies.
[07:58] <Neronious> ok that part im fuzzy on what do i do ?
[07:58] <ardchoille> shriphani: Looks kinda like midnight commander or gnome commander
[07:58] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: Did you have a look at mine? Compare them.
[07:58] <kquamme> neronious: type "sudo nautilus /etc"
[07:59] <kingcobr1> gyaresu: to what
[07:59] <ardchoille> !gksudo | Neronious
[07:59] <ubotu> Neronious: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application> 
[07:59] <ardchoille> kquamme: ^^
[07:59] <BeepAU> h3h_timo?
[07:59] <kingcobr1> gyaresu: :-[
[07:59] <h3xagram> arrenlex: i did that and installed libsdl-perl, i get this message when trying to re-run frozen-bubble
[07:59] <h3xagram> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8758/
[07:59] <kquamme> ubotu: o yes, ty i am in SLAX right now and forgot about gksudo
[07:59] <shriphani> ardchoille, yep
[08:00] <ardchoille> shriphani: Nice :)
[08:00] <shriphani> but in my terminal mc looks a lot like a crap
[08:00] <ardchoille> hahaha
[08:00] <arrenlex> h3xagram: That is internal to frozen-bubble. Did you install, or are you just trying to run it?
[08:00] <Neronious> k got it
[08:00] <shriphani> full of those @@@@
[08:00] <kingcobr1> gyaresu: i cant subscribe to online repos because i dont hav the internet on the linux comp
[08:00] <h3xagram> i installed
[08:00] <Xenguy> shriphani: there's also 'emelfm' (lean) and 'krusader' (heavyweight)
[08:00] <kquamme> neronious: did nautilus open up displaying /etc?
[08:00] <Neronious> kquamme: yes
[08:01] <Default> How do I remove Ubuntu?
[08:01] <shriphani> Xenguy, i am trying emelfm soon
[08:01] <shriphani> or rather going to try
[08:01] <shriphani> Default, huh ?
[08:01] <arrenlex> Default: Why ever would you do such a thing? ;_;
[08:01] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: Sorry what? You can't just connect via LAN cable temporarily?
[08:01] <kquamme> neronious: ok, go to "view" on the toolbar and select "view hidden files"
[08:01] <VanessaE> got a weird problem...  I need to display an 8bpp program within my normal 24bpp screen, using xnest seems right, but it complains that it can't find the "desired default visual"...  yet I can manually start X in 8bpp mode (so xorg.conf is correct).
[08:01] <Xenguy> shriphani: it's very minimalist; if you want the full deal, checkout krusader
[08:01] <Guest_370> Can anyone help me install ubuntu to my computer, a p4 2.4, 1 gig, 250G HD, Memory has been checked and is perfect and HD is perfect, but every time I try to install I either get a kernal panic with 6.06 alt and 6.06 and 6.10
[08:01] <Lynoure> Exeakiel: remove as make the harddisk empty or remove as in install some other OS?
[08:01] <Neronious> kquamme: got it
[08:02] <shriphani> ok Xenguy
[08:02] <kingcobr1> gyaresu: its too far away for cable
[08:02] <Xenguy> shriphani: lastly, if you are a 'vi guy', see 'vifm' -- it's a laugh
[08:02] <Exeakiel> shriphani - I want to format the drive that ubuntu is on, remove ubuntu, and switch it to NTSC
[08:02] <ardchoille> shriphani: Last time I used emelfm, I hilighted the ..  (parent folder) and pressed delete and it deleted the parent folder. This was a mistake but a file manager shouldn't do that without confirmation. I am hoping that bug was fixed.
[08:02] <Guest_370> I have dup copies on diff media burned with diff burners etc
[08:02] <shriphani> ahh
[08:02] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: K. So go here and download it manually: http://packages.ubuntu.com/edgy/utils/tofrodos
[08:02] <kquamme> neronious: do u see the backup file?
[08:02] <Xenguy> ardchoille: deletes can be configured to ask first I'm pretty sure
[08:02] <Guest_370> But everytime I try to install I get kernal panic
[08:03] <shriphani> xnc has a man tab as well
[08:03] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: Once you have the package on the linux machine you can install it with 'dpkg -i thing.deb' but did you see how many packages you need to install (from the howto)?
[08:03] <Neronious> kquamme: i have 2 fstabs: fstab.pre-ntfs-config   ;   fstab~
[08:03] <Hudson> rbil check out the first reply please, give me your opinion if this sounds about right.
[08:03] <ardchoille> Xenguy: I don't feel that a fm should ever delete the "parent" folder of the one you are in.
[08:03] <Hudson> er rbil http://forum.ntfs-3g.org/viewtopic.php?t=267&highlight=ubuntu+automounting+external+usb+drives
[08:03] <Xenguy> ardchoille: agreed, makes no sense
[08:03] <Exeakiel> How do I format my Ubuntu HDD, and change it to NTSC?
[08:03] <gyaresu> Neronious: You lucky lucky person.
[08:03] <kquamme> neronious: open fstab~ with gedit and take a look first
[08:04] <Allen3373> When I try and install or use Live CD, I get an interruption error and then my system restarts. can anyone help me out?
[08:04] <Lynoure> Exeakiel: If latter, usually you can just install the other OS and let it wipe you disks. If make it empty, pop in some utility cd, (rewrite over your data if it is sensitive) and then remove partitions
[08:04] <lwizard1> anyone familar with neoware thin clients computers? I'm thinking about using some a pos register
[08:04] <kingcobr1> gyaresu: no are there a lot
[08:04] <Guest_370> Anyone know of a ubuntu irc where noobs can get help? or anywhere where I can get install help other than the ubuntu forums?
[08:04] <gyaresu> Allen3373: There are some boot options you can pass to the kernel like 'noacpi' etc. that may help. F2 or F3 or something for a list.
[08:04] <rbil> Hudson, sorry can't find a first reply, could you repeat it?
[08:04] <kquamme> gyaresu: i love the fact that every major file usually backs itself up during updates
[08:04] <cabajgtr> Has anybody used tsclient to connect to windows VNC? I can connect with vncviewer, but tsclient can't seem to pass the right port or somthing
[08:04] <Exeakiel> Lynoure - I don't have my windows disc handy, and I surely don't want OSX on my computer XD
[08:05] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: Are we reading the same page? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Belkin_F5D7050_ver_3000_(Ralink_rt73_driver)?highlight=%28WifiDocs%2FDevice%29
[08:05] <Lynoure> Exeakiel: What do you mean with NTSC? Only thing I recall with that acronym is a broadcast standard.
[08:05] <Allen3373> gyaresu: So once I hit F2 or F3, what do I do from there?
[08:05] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: there's not a lot but you will need them.
[08:05] <Dakana> After doing a fresh install of 6.10 today and then installing all of the updates Synaptic wanted me to, my X broke, and to get it working, I had to change the 'ati' driver to 'vesa' in xorg.conf
[08:05] <Dakana> What do I do to get ATI drivers working again?
[08:05] <kquamme> neronious: what'd ya find?
[08:05] <Exeakiel> Lynore NTSC Filesystem, the defualt windows FS
[08:05] <Lynoure> Exeakiel: That's not NTSC
[08:06] <Hudson> rbil It suggests editing /usr/share/hal/scripts/hal-system-storage-mount to detect if 1, its mounting a NTFS FS. 2. if NTFS3g is installed if both are true it uses the ntfs3g driver instead of the kernal ntfs driver
[08:06] <Lynoure> Exeakiel: it's NTFS
[08:06] <Guest_370> dang, this is so frustrating. I'll just buy the stupid vista and be done with it...but for the record, I tried
[08:06] <gyaresu> kquamme: I've just been trying to find out how to automatically regen the fstab. No luck yet. Of course one could do it manually but it'd be annoying.
[08:06] <Exeakiel> Oh, thanks :D
[08:06] <arrenlex> Exeakiel: ntfs. xDD
[08:06] <Neronious> kquamme: i sent the contents of it to you in a private message
[08:06] <Hudson> rbil but I don't know how safe playing with the hal is
[08:06] <Neronious> kquamme: didnt wanna spam it
[08:06] <omeil> cwillu: how much does crossover pro cost?
[08:06] <kquamme> neronious: i don't see the pm
[08:06] <kquamme> neronious: whisper it
[08:06] <gyaresu> Guest_370: Or have a walk around outside and come back.
[08:06] <ardchoille> lol
[08:06] <rbil> Hudson, sorry, I've not played with hal before, so don't know that I can give any real advice on this
[08:07] <Guest_370> thanks, I'm on day three now
[08:07] <Lynoure> Exeakiel: If you just want make the disk one ntfs partition and do not want to wait until you have your Windows install cd,  gparted livecd is the easiest way. You can burn one from an image online
[08:07] <Guest_370> I can't believe that not one version will install to a clean machine
[08:07] <gyaresu> Allen3373: Should be some help on those pages... Just give it a go to start with.
[08:07] <Exeakiel> Lynoure, thanks.
[08:07] <kquamme> gyaresu: maybe use synaptic to re-update a package affecting the fstab?
[08:08] <VanessaE> Any xorg experts here?
[08:08] <Neronious> kquamme: did you get it that time?
[08:08] <Allen3373> gyaresu:ok, be back in a bit. it's on a different computer.
[08:08] <Guest_370> kernal panic, sounds like a punk band
[08:08] <nf4> Hello I was wondering if there is any thing worng with  compiling a source package that is  .rpm
[08:08] <ardchoille> Well, I must say, this channel ROCKS!
[08:08] <rbil> Hudson, what I don't understand is how mounting in fstab can apply to a removeable device? what if the usb drive isn't plugged in when you boot your computer, then fstab won't mount it
[08:08] <gyaresu> Guest_370: I know you've tried a lot but I know there will be a way.
[08:09] <kquamme> neronious: nope, but if you see ur root device and anything else that you need(possibly the home dir) then it should get you going
[08:09] <Lynoure> Exeakiel: here is the url for the live cd: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[08:09] <omeil> VanessaE: your better off asking your question :) then someone will answer.
[08:09] <nf4> I am pretty new at compling from source and the only source i could find was called  gaim-2.0.0-0.beta6.src.rpm
[08:09] <VanessaE> omeil: I did, no one responded (figured no one even saw it)
[08:09] <gyaresu> kquamme: No-body messes with the fstab.
[08:09] <Allen3373> gyaresu: hey, wait. on the forum someone just said that maybe my ISO burn was bad, and that I shoudl try and burn at a lower speed. What do you think?
[08:09] <Exeakiel> Thanks, but I'm already downloading.
[08:09] <Lynoure> Exeakiel: :)
[08:09] <gyaresu> Allen3373: Old machine. Definitely. Try better rom drive also. Slower burn is a start.
[08:10] <Guest_370> I've tried 6.06  6.06 alt, 6.10, different media, different hard drive, new memory, different burners
[08:10] <VanessaE> Is it normal for Xorg to ignore all of your depth settings save for the mode you actually start in, to the point of not even listing those other depths in xdpyinfo?
[08:10] <nf4> well  when i burn iso i set program to do full speed
[08:10] <omeil> VanessaE: maybe the problem isn't in xorg.conf?
[08:10] <Hudson> rbil. I'm not going to make an fstab entry. I was thinking more along the lines of what if fstab mounts it with NTFS3g then udev or hal or whatever mounts it again because its usb with the standard driver
[08:10] <nf4> but the speed still veries
[08:10] <kquamme> gyaresu: yea, i suppose not... hmm.... this backup should work though
[08:10] <gyaresu> Guest_370: What's happening with it?
[08:10] <Neronious> kquamme: i think that one is bad, im going to do with the other one "fstab.pre-ntfs-config" what do i do next?
[08:10] <Guest_370> none of them install, could my bios be too old or does that have nothing to do with it
[08:10] <Hudson> rbil I guess i'll try the Hal method and see if it works.
[08:10] <VanessaE> omeil: that's what I'm trying to establish
[08:10] <gyaresu> kquamme: aye. Make sure hes got a livecd sitting around before reboot though.
[08:11] <Allen3373> gyaresu: ok. I'll burn another. Hopefully I won't be back!
[08:11] <kquamme> neronious: open it up with gedit and save it as fstab
[08:11] <gyaresu> Allen3373: You'll be back, they always come back.
[08:11] <nf4> and after it is done it will check the dvd/cd for errors
[08:11] <Neronious> kquamme: that all?
[08:11] <kquamme> gyaresu: good idea, but i kinda thought that if he installed ubuntu that he already has one
[08:11] <Allen3373> gyaresu: lmao
[08:11] <VanessaE> I need to run a 256-color-mode program under wine, and to do that I must run xnest
[08:11] <Guest_370> gyaresu, I get the ubuntu title page, i select install, it runs for two seconds, then gives me "kernal panic"
[08:11] <omeil> VanessaE: I can't be any help to you :(. I guess u already tried googling the problem.
[08:11] <kquamme> neronious: yes, cuz it should have everything but the ntfs entry
[08:11] <gyaresu> kquamme: presumtion killed... well, something.
[08:11] <VanessaE> so far I can't even get xnest to run by itself (without anything wine-related)
[08:12] <VanessaE> yep, I googled for a bit and came up empty
[08:12] <kquamme> neronious: do u have a livecd to use incase it doesn't work?
[08:12] <Neronious> kquamme: thank you, and yes i do
[08:12] <Guest_370> kernal panic, not syncing, attempted to kill init
[08:12] <gyaresu> Guest_370: So you can get the livecd to boot? Then click on the 'install' icon on the desktop then it freaks and dies?
[08:12] <Neronious> kquamme: if you see me on here wineing about it later it means it didnt work lol
[08:12] <Guest_370> gyaresu, every time
[08:13] <kquamme> ok, well that should at least boot you up, you'll have to edit it again to get the ntfs partition in there
[08:13] <gyaresu> Guest_370: How much ram do you have in the machine?
[08:13] <Guest_370> 1G
[08:13] <kquamme> neronious: reboot quick if u can and i'll stay on for another 30mins and wait for you to reply
[08:13] <gyaresu> Guest_370: Not that then.
[08:13] <Guest_370> p4 2.4
[08:13] <matrix> hi
[08:13] <Neronious> kquamme: thank you, brb
[08:13] <ray_> quick question, I need to rename a file
[08:13] <ray_> how do I do it from command line?
[08:14] <kquamme> gyaresu: here goes nothing
[08:14] <Hudson> rbil. lets see if this works
[08:14] <gyaresu> Guest_370: And the output of 'lspci' 'dmesg' 'fdisk -l /dev/sda' etc. Have you got any links?
[08:14] <chalcedony> i'll have to think of some way to ask questions so someone will answer them
[08:14] <ray_> rename isn't renaming
[08:14] <matrix> i have problem with my sound card have realtek alc850 i cant use the 5.1 only 2 channels
[08:14] <ray_> it's returning an error message
[08:14] <bullgard1> I need an English word which is used in connection with Linux/Ubuntu: How is one of four desktops called which I can choose in a Gnome panel in the lower right?
[08:14] <gyaresu> kquamme: totally you fault if it doesn't, not his for deleting the fstab.
[08:15] <gyaresu> kquamme: _snicker_
[08:15] <ray_> so how do I rename a file?
[08:15] <Guest_370> gyaresu, I have absolutely no idea what that is except I knowwhat fdisk is in windows. This machine has no operating system on it whatsoever
[08:15] <ray_> I have xorg.conf.backup
[08:15] <Guest_370> it's a clean install
[08:15] <VanessaE> mv
[08:15] <ray_> and I need to rename it to xorg.conf
[08:15] <VanessaE> (stands for "move")
[08:15] <kquamme> gyaresu: hah, yea fstab doesn't do anything THAT important, lol.
[08:16] <ray_> so mv xorg.conf.backup xorg.conf ?
[08:16] <gyaresu> Guest_370: Are you trying to install on the machine you are using at the moment?

[08:16] <kquamme> ray_:might need to sudo
[08:16] <gyaresu> kquamme: 'fdisk -l' you naughty monkey.
[08:16] <ray_> ty
[08:16] <Guest_370> gyaresu, negative, but I can see the other machine from this one
[08:16] <Neronious> it worked thanks
[08:16] <kingcobr1> gyaresu: now im at the same point again but there is no essid where there should be in iwconfig as you see in the pastebin
[08:16] <gyaresu> !fixres | chalcedony

[08:17] <kquamme> gyaresu: omg, and u didn't speak up, LOL!
[08:17] <TeePOG> hi guys, how do I set up ssh equivalent logins for all my machines? I need to login as admin to quite a few machines, and would prefer not to type that many ssh passwords
[08:17] <kquamme> gyaresu: he's back though
[08:17] <kquamme> neronious: np
[08:17] <gyaresu> Guest_370: And you have the ubuntu livecd running on it now.
[08:18] <Lynoure> TeePOG: you can use ssh with keys, so you only need to type the passphrase for the key
[08:18] <Neronious> kquamme: does chalcedony fix the fstab folder?
[08:18] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: Did you install all the packages and follow the guide?
[08:18] <Guest_370> by the live cd are you talking about 6.06 or 6.06 alt, etc?
[08:18] <Guest_370> if so, then yes
[08:18] <kquamme> neronious: just out of curiousity, why did u delete the fstab, what is chalcedony?
[08:18] <TeePOG> Lynoure: would I have to type the passphrase every time?
[08:19] <kingcobr1> gyaresu: i followed the guide but what packages should i hav installed apart from tofrodos
[08:19] <gyaresu> Guest_370: You had a copy of Edgy right? 6.10
[08:19] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[08:19] <Guest_370> gyaresu, yes, I have the latest edgy as well
[08:20] <Lynoure> TeePOG: you can also set no passphrase, though I do not recommend it if you can avoid it. Or use caching.
[08:20] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: It's a _guide_. So you like, do what it says.
[08:20] <chalcedony> ubotu this seems to apply to flickering .. whatever he does makes it bigger or smaller and that's all
[08:20] <Guest_370> loading that one now
[08:20] <gyaresu> Guest_370: It's a more recent kernel etc. so is the preferec way to go. Wanna boot that one up?
[08:20] <kingcobr1> i did evrything it says :)
[08:20] <kingcobr1> sorry
[08:20] <Neronious> kquamme: gyaresu just did the thing for it and you said something about it !fixres | chalcedony  thought it was a tool to fix /etc  and i deleted it in stupidity because im trying to get the ntfs-3g to work
[08:20] <kingcobr1> gyaresu:  i did evrything it says
[08:21] <TeePOG> Lynoure: it'll be only from one workstation, which is in an access-controlled area. I think it'll be safe with no passphrase
[08:21] <LinuxNoob> greetings
[08:21] <Neronious> kquamme: that way i can read write execute on ntfs
[08:21] <Lynoure> TeePOG: How many machines you are dealing with?
[08:21] <chalcedony> hi LinuxNoob
[08:21] <TeePOG> Lynoure: a lab, it's about 80 all told
[08:21] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: You havn't fixed your /etc/apt/sources.list though or you would be able to install tofrodos
[08:21] <LinuxNoob> I need a little help, if anyone has time.
[08:22] <gyaresu> !ask | LinuxNoob
[08:22] <ubotu> LinuxNoob: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:22] <Lynoure> TeePOG: access controlled physically or networkwise? You'd want both.
[08:22] <kquamme> neronious: oic, well chalcedony is separate from fstab
[08:22] <TeePOG> yes Lynoure, both ...
[08:22] <Guest_370> gyaresu, booting up now---started, then I got a black screen with a curser in the upper left hand corner and nothing else
[08:22] <LinuxNoob> Ok, is it normal for my PC to hang when trying to boot from the CD? (I get the Ubuntu screen with the progress bar, but it goes wacky)
[08:22] <Neronious> kquamme: yea its a person..im tired and stupid right now thanks for your help
[08:23] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: did you look at my sources.list ( http://gyaresu.org/sources.list ) and read the !repos page?
[08:23] <Guest_370> that's after the ubuntu install screen came up
[08:23] <kingcobr1> gyaresu: i dont know what i can do to it while im offline on d linux comp
[08:23] <Lynoure> TeePOG: Well, you are the admin there, I assume, so both the decision and the responsibility on it is yours. :)
[08:23] <kingcobr1> gyaresu: yes
[08:23] <TeePOG> yes Lynoure, thanks... just needed a bit of advice as a kickstart to a monday morning
[08:23] <foormea> hey, got a noob question: under gnome, to make a desktop shortcut to a directory, should i make an app that points to "nautilus <mount point>" or a file that just points to mount point?
[08:24] <Guest_370> now it's dead
[08:24] <LinuxNoob> Is it possible to install Edgy on an external (USB) harddrive?
[08:24] <kquamme> foormea: first should work as long as the directory is automatically mounted at startup
[08:24] <shriphani> LinuxNoob, sure
[08:24] <gyaresu> kingcobr1: Fair point. This is going to be an absolute doddle if you can just get a longer cable or move the machine for the install process. Otherwise it's a dogs breakfast.
[08:25] <LinuxNoob> any clue how? i'm a windows bred fool trying to see the light
[08:25] <Lynoure> TeePOG: Enjoy the week :)
[08:25] <[StingRay] > Hi all. Is it possible to make deb file from a source? If so how do I do this?
[08:25] <gyaresu> Guest_370: Did you get a chance to click any buttons?
[08:25] <kquamme> [StingRay] : yes, i can't think of the program, gimme a sec
[08:25] <shriphani> LinuxNoob, i guess ensure that the usb drive is plugged in during the installation and when the time to partition arrives just point it to your required drive
[08:25] <Lynoure> [StingRay] : http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/index.html
[08:25] <Minibnz> hi all can you tell me if a debian package will work on ubuntu? sorry if its a stupid question....
[08:26] <PloneDude> hi...wat is the find command to find all files of a particualar file extension...
[08:26] <kquamme> [StingRay] : google for checkinstall
[08:26] <LinuxNoob> ah, ok... well, there in lies my problem, I cannot get to the install screen, it crashes :(
[08:26] <[StingRay] > I will check it Lynoure. thanks
[08:26] <Guest_370> I just rebooted and I stopped it by hitting f6 and brought up the boot options
[08:26] <gyaresu> !install
[08:26] <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
[08:26] <[StingRay] > I found out gs in dapper is broken. I want to make a post and paste a link with the deb file
[08:26] <foormea> kquamme, ok thx. do you know what pixmap is the one that gnome nautilus automatically affects to mounted drives in "places"? (the basic disk drive icon i mean)
[08:26] <gyaresu> PloneDude: 'locate *.mp3'
[08:26] <PloneDude> anyone can recommand a gud site...where every linux command is explained in details..
[08:27] <shriphani> LinuxNoob, is your box provided with only 256 mb ram and you are trying to go install with the live cd ??
[08:27] <LinuxNoob> no
[08:27] <PloneDude> gyaresu: thanks...
[08:27] <foormea> PloneDude, www.tldp.org --> guides   you'll find what you're looking for there :)
[08:27] <shriphani> LinuxNoob, then ?
[08:27] <LinuxNoob> I have 1gb of ram and I'm using the CD from the site
[08:27] <TeePOG> actually Lynoure, i think that I'm going to go with shosts-based authentication ...
[08:27] <LinuxNoob> er... torrent
[08:27] <TeePOG> it seems more secure
[08:27] <gyaresu> PloneDude: run 'man man' from a terminal.
[08:27] <kquamme> foormea: it's somewhere under /usr gimme a sec and i'll have the answer
[08:28] <foormea> kquamme, ok thx
[08:28] <LinuxNoob> pardon me while i read the install pages
[08:28] <LinuxNoob> maybe i missed something important
[08:28] <shriphani> LinuxNoob, you are downloading the torrent ?
[08:28] <TeePOG> thanks for the help Lynoure, it pointed me in the right direction
[08:28] <Guest_370> I clicked on install and the cdrom started running and then the screen went black with a blinking curser in theupperleftcorner
[08:28] <gyaresu> PloneDude: http://freeengineer.org/learnUNIXin10minutes.html as one of many examples.
[08:29] <LinuxNoob> I have downloaded the torrent, burned the image to a CD-R via Nero @ 40x and verified the data...
[08:29] <gyaresu> !prefix | Guest_370
[08:29] <ubotu> Guest_370: If you prefix your lines with the nickname of the person you're talking to, you have a greater chance that that person reads your messages
[08:29] <Lynoure> [StingRay] : if you just want to fix a single bug, making a patch for the existing package can be better as then devs can apply the fix to the official ones.
[08:29] <Guest_370> ubotu,right,sorry
[08:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about right,sorry - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:30] <gyaresu> !ubotu tell Guest_370 about yourself
[08:30] <Guest_370> lol
[08:30] <lazyf> XD
[08:30] <bullgard1> Using irssi, how can I find a string in the past postings of this channel?
[08:30] <sevenpacks> xD != XD
[08:30] <gyaresu> Guest_370: I can't remember the other options from that first screen I'll try and find a walkthrough on the net. brb.
[08:30] <Lynoure> TeePOG: It's actually quite fun to help people who are willing to do some digging on their own too. So you are very welcome.
[08:30] <Lynoure> bullgard1: /lastlog string
[08:31] <TeePOG> :-D
[08:31] <sevenpacks> I wish to have a large size xD
[08:31] <Guest_370> gyaresu, ty
[08:31] <nf4> if i compile dose it matter if the source code comes from a .rpm file ?
[08:31] <LinuxNoob> When I boot from the CD, it either crashes at "Booting the kernel." or on the Ubuntu loading screen (the progress bar gets pixelated). Did I burn the ISO wrong?
[08:31] <bullgard1> Lynoure: I will try that. Thank you.
[08:32] <Peacer> I was wondering if it's able to change permissions for a folder and everything in it, subfolders too via chmod, there probably is, just wondering how to do it XD
[08:32] <shriphani> Peacer, chmod -R ?
[08:32] <gyaresu> Hey anyone know how to issue boot options (noacpi etc.from the 6.10 install disk. I've not done it that way. For Guest_370
[08:32] <Peacer> I'll try ^^
[08:33] <kquamme> foormea: /usr/share/icons
[08:33] <[StingRay] > Lynoure, I am new to linux. I cannot tell the exact file. On the other hand I found out two bugs. For one of them it is broken font, but for the other I can only guess
[08:33] <mneptok> gyaresu: <esc> at the grub menu and follow instructions
[08:33] <bullgard1> Lynoure: It worked out fine. Thank you again.
[08:33] <PloneDude> thanks everyone...a great channel this is , indeed... :)
[08:33] <gyaresu> mneptok: Guest_370 Thanks
[08:33] <foormea> kquamme, thx
[08:34] <gyaresu> Guest_370: <esc> at the grub menu and follow instructions
[08:34] <kquamme> foormea: np, find what you're looking for in there?
[08:34] <Peacer> shriphani nope :(
[08:34] <mneptok> LinuxNoob: burn at the slowest speed possible, and md5sum the iso. you downloaded
[08:34] <Ayabara> anyone experienced with vmware? I managed to install both player and server on edgy, and that messed things up bad. the uninstall script for server does not work anymore, so I have to find a way to uninstall manually. anyone?
[08:35] <Guest_370> gyaresu, sorry, but what is the grub menu?
[08:35] <mneptok> Guest_370: watch the screen as you boot
[08:35] <LinuxNoob> the MD5 checks out... i'll try re-burning it... any specific settings i should use? Disc-at-once, certain block size, etc?
[08:35] <Episcopus> !error 18
[08:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about error 18 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:35] <mneptok> LinuxNoob: nope. just sloooooow.
[08:35] <shriphani> Peacer, i meant chmod -R (mode)
[08:35] <gyaresu> !grub | Guest_370
[08:35] <ubotu> Guest_370: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[08:35] <LinuxNoob> alrighty
[08:35] <Guest_370> gyaresu, thanks, I'll give it a try
[08:35] <kquamme> Guest_370: GRUB is what allows you to select what OS you boot into
[08:35] <Allen3373> gyaresu: well, I'm back sure enough!
[08:36] <Peacer> shriphani I know... chmod x+xxx -R /something/something/
[08:36] <Episcopus> i got a GRUB loading, please wait . . . Error 18 message on boot. does anyone know what that is
[08:36] <shriphani> umm no chmod -R mode
[08:36] <Guest_370> thanks to all. I'm off to give bill gates a kick in the pants
[08:36] <mneptok> Peacer: no, the -R switch comes before other operands
[08:36] <kingcobra> g
[08:36] <Peacer> ahh
[08:36] <gyaresu> Guest_370: It lets you chose which kernel to boot and you pass it options. In your case you may benefit from getting the kernel to _not_ load certain drivers that are making it freeze (if that's the problem).
[08:36] <Peacer> ops XD
[08:36] <[StingRay] > Ayabara. I had experience with vmware and automatix2. It worked flawlessly. Automatix has an uninstall feautre. apt-get remove vmware-player (not sure of the exact name but you can check it)
[08:36] <gyaresu> Allen3373: Hello again.
[08:37] <kingcobra> gyaresu: ive got a cable now temporary
[08:37] <kquamme> Episcopus: sounds like bad GRUB communication from the MBR to your linux partition
[08:37] <gyaresu> kingcobra: Yay!
[08:37] <Episcopus> kquamme: is there a fix?
[08:37] <foormea> kquamme, yeah kind of. but thing is i haven't found a direct way to find what are the automatic desktop icons
[08:37] <Allen3373> gyaresu: so, it still had the same message with the new CD ISO burn. and I tried the help, but there was really nothing there... so, any ideas?
[08:37] <Peacer> still doesn't work :|
[08:37] <gyaresu> kingcobra: I've been busy whilst you've been gone... http://narnia.bounceme.net/jeremy/2007/03/04/rt73-supported-out-of-the-box-in-ubuntu/
[08:37] <LinuxNoob> will i get a performance hit if I install 6.10 x64 on a USB HD? (2.0)
[08:37] <Ayabara> [StingRay] , thanks, but that didn't work for me. I think I have to do some manual cleanup of things :-/
[08:37] <UNDERsoN> Hello. I've got a question. I have hdd3 partiton.And there was no space on this disk. Than I downloaded another 300 mb. And It has been downloaded. I check this file everything is  fine with this file. As I understand it downloaded in swap. If I shutdown computer and then turnit on is this file would be on the same place?

[08:45] <Episcopus> mneptok: could i just reinstall from the live cd? i haven't had a chance to do anything that needs to be saved yet
[08:45] <LinuxNoob> kingcobra, maybe this will help? http://wwwu.uni-klu.ac.at/agebhard/WUSB54GC/
[08:45] <Differ> kquamme: I got the i386 off bittorrent

[08:48] <MybJames> WHAT IS UBUNTU
[08:48] <LinuxNoob> an operating system
[08:48] <MybJames> WHAT IS UBUNTU
[08:48] <Differ> UBUNUT doesn't exist
[08:48] <MybJames> UBERNUT
[08:48] <llama32> is there a way to access ext2/ext3 from windows xp? i've seen a couple of drivers and such about [and i used some partitioning tool in the past, but it was a bit akward]  - i was wondering if anyone has some recommendations?
[08:49] <gyaresu> !caps | MybJames
[08:49] <ubotu> MybJames: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[08:49] <MybJames> WTF IS AN OPERATING SYSTE,
[08:49] <MybJames> WTF IS AN OPERATING SYSTEM
[08:49] <LinuxNoob> ban?
[08:49] <Differ>  /kb for MybJames please?
[08:49] <MybJames> wtf?
[08:49] <MTecknology> Is that IPv6 thing just about searching for the web pages? b/c when My system finds them it downloads at regulare speed. and it only seems to occur in Linux at my home network, any other time it's great
[08:49] <gyaresu> MybJames: STOP IT.
[08:49] <Hirvinen> !ops

[08:49] <sevenpacks> MybJames,  you ok?
[08:49] <Allen3373> gyaresu: No. it's a stock computer. A compaq presario. (not my main comp, just fyi lol). As a side not, it has a partition for the recovery for win xp. Could that have somewhting to do with it?
[08:49] <MybJames> whats ubuntu
[08:50] <kquamme> Differ: most likely ATA
[08:50] <LinuxNoob> owned
[08:50] <MTecknology> wow, power kicking
[08:50] <foormea> does anyone know if there's a simple way (without editing the partition in a hardcore way) to change a vfat partition's label?
[08:50] <sevenpacks> drama
[08:50] <gyaresu> Allen3373: Shouldn't. Your only getting as far as the 'Install Ubuntu' (or whatever that list is) right?
[08:50] <llama32> WHAT IS UB... nah, better not :D
[08:50] <LinuxNoob> brb, gonna try new CD
[08:50] <LinuxNoob> *crosses fingers*
[08:50] <Differ> kquamme: not for the likes of me to know.
[08:50] <Allen3373> gyaresu: Exactly.
[08:50] <Differ> should I check the CD for writing errors?
[08:51] <mneptok> nalioth: pardon my dust :)
[08:51] <kquamme> Differ: yea, and if that isn't the cause then dl and official iso from a mirror
[08:51] <gyaresu> Allen3373: And you've tried different disks? (And _of_course_ you've md5sum'd the iso)
[08:51] <anarchron> hi guys, i can't seem to find nvidia-glx-legacy in edgy
[08:51] <Peacer> people these days *shakes head*
[08:51] <kquamme> Differ: also, did you DL dapper or edgy?
[08:51] <Differ> kquamme: will try tomorrow. edgy
[08:52] <mneptok> anarchron: enable multiverse
[08:52] <Allen3373> gyaresu: yeah, I reburnt the ISO at a slower rate. but, uh, what is md5sum?
[08:52] <kquamme> Differ: you might want to stick to the LTS releases like dapper
[08:52] <anarchron> ok
[08:52] <kingcobra> gyaresu: got it ill hav a quick go with cable at the guide again
[08:52] <BeepAU> i've installed ubuntu on my laptop and i need to set it so it knows i'm using a widescreen laptop (rather than it squashing everything) and get sound working. can anyone point me in the direction of a faq to do this?
[08:52] <foormea> okay found what i was looking for: mtools / mlabel
[08:52] <kquamme> that's what I have decided to do and it makes things so much less of a hassle
[08:52] <dimych> Hi guys, is there a way to make ctrl-keys working in alternate kbd layouts, e.g. I want to open a new tab in firefox using ctrl-t while being swithched to russian keyboard.. Is it possible?
[08:53] <gyaresu> Allen3373: It will check that the iso is exactly what it should be. You burnt it on an Win machine?
[08:53] <llama32> anyone know of tools to access ext2/3 from windows?
[08:53] <kquamme> Differ: that's what I have decided to do and it makes things so much less of a hassle
[08:53] <gyaresu> kingcobra: Nice one. start with fixing your repos.
[08:53] <Allen3373> gyaresu: no, an iMac. It did run through a Verify. Is that the same?
[08:53] <mneptok> BeepAU: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:53] <mneptok> Allen3373: PPC iMac?
[08:53] <BeepAU> mneptok - what will that do?
[08:54] <mneptok> BeepAU: recofigure X11
[08:54] <BeepAU> x11?
[08:54] <Allen3373> mneptok:PPC? what is that?
[08:54] <mneptok> Allen3373: PowerPC
[08:54] <kquamme> i'm out. peace.
[08:54] <MTecknology> wow, power kicking
[08:54] <ubm> llama32 tools as in free tools? You can use cygwin if your looking for free tools to edit linux paritions... you can also try a trial of acronis disk manager for quick jobs
[08:54] <MTecknology> Is that IPv6 thing just about searching for the web pages? b/c when My system finds them it downloads at regulare speed. and it only seems to occur in Linux at my home network, any other time it's great
[08:54] <MTecknology> **^^
[08:54] <gyaresu> Allen3373: Don't know. Maybe. There are other ways of installing though. You could probably just install with the -alternative version then 'apt-get install _whatever-desktop_'
[08:54] <Differ> I follow kquamme.
[08:54] <Allen3373> mneptok: Nope. Core 2 Duo
[08:55] <Allen3373> gyaresu: which alternate version. THere's a huge list.
[08:55] <mneptok> Allen3373: try burning the iso with Firestarter and not Disk Utility. you can find Fstarter on VersionTracker.
[08:55] <gyaresu> Allen3373: Yeah what mirror are you looking at?
[08:55] <nalioth> Allen3373: and burn as slowly as your hardware allows . . . .
[08:55] <Allen3373> mneptok: I'l dl it
[08:55] <mneptok> Allen3373: OSX's Disk Utility app has known issuen with Ubuntu iso's
[08:55] <BeepAU> mneptok - which driver do i pixk? i have a nvidia geforce 6100
[08:56] <BeepAU> pick*
[08:56] <MTecknology> How do I install KDE ?
[08:56] <mneptok> BeepAU: nv, or nvidia if present
[08:56] <gyaresu> mneptok: Cheers. That's good info.
[08:56] <Allen3373> gyaresu: the Portland university one
[08:56] <nalioth> MTecknology: install kubuntu-desktop
[08:56] <mneptok> gyaresu: that's why they pay me the big bucks (HA!) ;)
[08:56] <MTecknology> nalioth, ty
[08:56] <Linuxn00b> :( still won't boot from CD
[08:56] <Allen3373> mneptok: really? Well, that's good to find out. thanks!
[08:56] <gyaresu> Allen3373: did you see the advice above about using firestarter?
[08:57] <Allen3373> gyaresu: affirmative
[08:57] <gyaresu> mneptok: I'll cut you in on my commission.
[08:57] <Linuxn00b> Is there an issue with nVidia chipsets and/or nVidia GeForce 8800 GTS?
[08:57] <MTecknology> nalioth, what about installing xfce?
[08:58] <gyaresu> Linuxn00b: What type of issue (there are probably many)
[08:58] <anarchron> hey guys, can I use compiz/beryl/xgl with nvidia-glx-legacy?
[08:58] <mneptok> Allen3373: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19058
[08:58] <nalioth> MTecknology: xubuntu-desktop will do it
[08:58] <MTecknology> anarchron, you can use compiz w/ about anything
[08:58] <mneptok> gyaresu: heh, i actually *do* get paid ;)
[08:58] <Linuxn00b> I'm trying to run Ubuntu from the CD and when it gets to the loading screen, it crashes. The progress bar gets all goofy aswell.
[08:58] <MTecknology> nalioth, thanks :)
[08:58] <anarchron> ah ok
[09:30] (gyaresu_/#ubuntu) Allen3373: We'll get to that ;)

[09:33] <dimych> (maybe I'm asking smth dumb?)
[09:33] <bullgard1> defrysk: Thank you very much.
[09:33] <timfrost> finn23, install build-essential to get the core development packages (sudo apt-get install build-essential)
[09:34] <gyaresu_> dimych: Not dumb. Just don't know the answer :)

[09:35] <perrupa> Hey all, I was wondering if this was the place I could ask a question about using beryl on a new Dapper install?
[09:35] <perrupa> I've already installed it but am having trouble with the window decorator
[09:36] <gyaresu> perrupa: (apparently it's quiet over there but...) Did you know there is a beryl channel?
[09:36] <gyaresu> !beryl | perrupa
[09:36] <ubotu> perrupa: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[09:37] <dimych> gyaresu, thanks. If I find anything, I will let you know.
[09:37] <perrupa> I tried the beryl cannel but xchat said it doesn't exist :

[09:50] <Fuzzehskittlez> nvm
[09:50] <kingcobr1> gyaresu: yes hopefully
[09:50] <gyaresu> Allen3373: You sir must/might/maybe have a hardware problem. Has it been running anything else?
[09:51] <Allen3373> windows XP
[09:51] <Allen3373> gyaresu: windows XP
[09:51] <Michael_TC> I'm sorry to be "that guy", but I'm trying to install edgy on an old compaq.  It'll get past the start screen, the loading screen, and it'll say something about the swap and file system, then it goes blank. I'm not very knowledgable about linux yet to know what to do.
[09:51] <Michael_TC> I've done some searching online, and found *similar* problems, but the proposed solutions haven't worked so far.
[09:51] <gyaresu> Allen3373: P4 gig of ram... Have you done a search for the specific mainboard to see if anyone else has had problems?
[09:52] <Grunf> I need help
[09:52] <ardchoille> Grunf: With what?
[09:52] <Allen3373> gyaresu: uh, no...
[09:52] <Grunf> heh Im new on Ubuntu I need help how to install DC++ on 6.06
[09:52] <Fuzzehskittlez> how do i get a dock?
[09:52] <gyaresu> Allen3373: Whatever you do don't do that ;)
[09:53] <Allen3373> gyaresu: lol ok, I'll be sure not to
[09:53] <SoftIce> hi, this is driving me insane
[09:53] <SoftIce> ubuntu edgy
[09:53] <gyaresu> Michael_TC: What are the specs of this _old_ compaq?
[09:53] <SoftIce> I cant get to the kernel boot menu
[09:53] <Allen3373> gyaresu: where do you reccomend searching?
[09:53] <SoftIce> it is to quick and says starting system
[09:54] <SoftIce> I need to boot to single user mode
[09:54] <Grunf> Im insatll once but my sistem is crashed
[09:54] <SoftIce> but cant get to the option to enable it in my kernel boot perameter
[09:54] <SoftIce> any ideas how to get to the grub menu on bootup ?
[09:54] <KenSentMe> Michael_TC, are you trying to install from a live cd? Of so, you might try installing from an alternate cd. Check what ubotu says:
[09:54] <Michael_TC> gyaresu - trying to find out- hold on.
[09:54] <KenSentMe> !alternate | Michael_TC
[09:54] <ubotu> Michael_TC: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.
[09:55] <gyaresu> Allen3373: Do you have any other linux livecd's? grml.org is good. You really could do with the output of 'lspci'.
[09:55] <Michael_TC> I'm using the live cd right now, ubotu
[09:55] <SoftIce> grrrrrrr
[09:55] <SoftIce> getting any fucking help here is next to impossible
[09:55] <Michael_TC> I'd try the alternate, but I certainly don't need "expert" mode!
[09:55] <gyaresu> ubotu: tell Michael_TC about yourself
[09:55] <Allen3373> gyaresu: I have no idea what you're tlaking about lol
[09:55] <gyaresu> !ohmy SoftIce
[09:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ohmy softice - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:56] <gyaresu> !ohmy | SoftIce
[09:56] <ubotu> SoftIce: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:56] <vlt> Hello. Someone sent me a ".docx" file. It seems to be a ZIP archive containing several XML documents. Does anyone know a way I can open it?
[09:56] <KenSentMe> Michael_TC, the alternate cd _can_ be used for expert installs, but is not that expert for non-experts. It's just text-based instead of the Live cd
[09:56] <timfrost> SoftIce, what happens if you press ESCAPE at boot?
[09:57] <Michael_TC> I may have to resort to that.
[09:57] <Michael_TC> I'm not sure what the video card is, but I see that some ATIs can be a problem?
[09:57] <kidbuntu> How do you make the borders in open office Spreadsheet thicker?
[09:58] <SoftIce> timfrost: nothing it just boots the dam OS
[09:58] <SoftIce> this is flippin anoyoying, because its lame
[09:58] <SoftIce> and ive used linux for over 10 years and I cant even get a grub prompt?
[09:58] <shatrat> what does that say about you
[09:58] <gyaresu> Allen3373: Sorry. Um... You could try downloading one of the mini livecd's like damnsmalllinux or even better http://grml.org and try loading those. I'm really quite leaning towards the optical drive being the problem.
[09:58] <SoftIce> I have work to do and this stupid OS cant even get a grub promp
[09:58] <timfrost> SoftIce, the default setup gives you only 2 seconds to press ESCAPE
[09:59] <SoftIce> I press escape 10000 times in 2 seconds
[09:59] <Allen3373> gysaresu: seems there's quite a few people with the chipset I have that have ahd probems. But nothing similiar to my problem.
[09:59] <SoftIce> that doesn't give me an option
[09:59] <SoftIce> it just starts the OS
[09:59] <shriphani> Allen3373, use puppy
[09:59] <gyaresu> SoftIce: usb keyboard?
[09:59] <Allen3373> shriphani: puppy?
[09:59] <erUSUL> SoftIce: boot with a livecd and modify the /boot/grub/menu.lst of your grub
[09:59] <shriphani> yeah
[10:00] <ardchoille> SoftIce: Can you pastebin your /boot/grub/menu.lst please?
[10:00] <shriphani> the barebones is just 39 mb
[10:00] <Allen3373> shriphani: what is puppy?
[10:00] <Michael_TC> well,
[10:00] <gyaresu> Allen3373:  Another small linux iso. If you can boot something then you can get the specific chipset information etc. that may help you troubleshoot it if faulty hardware is not the problem.
[10:00] <zoidberg> hey guys....is there an xfce (xubuntu) ipod application
[10:01] <Allen3373> gyaresu: ok, so where do I get puppy?
[10:01] <PupUsercdf473> i am actually running puppy right now
[10:01] <SoftIce> no USB k/b
[10:01] <shriphani> zoidberg, gtkpod ?
[10:01] <SoftIce> and no I cant pastbin the grub prompt
[10:01] <SoftIce> %*"("%(%"("%(%"
[10:02] <Michael_TC> gyaresu - I've got the "extra" specs here in front of me. Not sure about the amount of *ram*; I'm not sure how to check.
[10:02] <shriphani> www.puppylinux,org
[10:02] <Michael_TC> This has fedora core 2 on it, but I'm working with a one-button mouse.
[10:02] <Allen3373> well ok then!
[10:02] <MTecknology> How do I add a gnome panel? - ie the long narrow bars
[10:02] <ardchoille> MTecknology: right click an existing panel and choose from the menu
[10:03] <ardchoille> MTecknology: "New Panel"
[10:04] <theidiotthatisme> Does anyone here know where I can find information on playing old Loki games on Edgy?
[10:04] <Allen3373> downloading puppy right now *sigh* poor CDs
[10:04] <MTecknology> ardchoille, ok, that wokred, what do I do if I didn't have a panel?
[10:05] <PupUsercdf473> yeah i went through a bunch too
[10:05] <ardchoille> MTecknology: You would try ALT+F2 and type: gnome-panel
[10:05] <MTecknology> ardchoille, thanks :)
[10:05] <Hmmmm> hey guys, i have a lazer printer being shared over samba. but windows machines find printing very slow
[10:05] <ardchoille> MTecknology: You can delete panels, except the last panel.. the Delete This Panel is greyed out
[10:07] <gyaresu> I'm back.
[10:07] <sevenpacks> hi
[10:07] <Michael_TC> Welcome back. :-)
[10:07] <MTecknology> ardchoille, never realized that :)... I'm trying to get ppl at my university to switch to linux... I have XFCE, KDE, and Gnome
[10:08] <Michael_TC> I have *most* of the stats on this here: what is helpful to know?
[10:08] <sevenpacks> i'm ba ba ba back too!!!
[10:08] <MTecknology> and beryl & compiz :)
[10:08] <sevenpacks> who is back? i'm back!
[10:08] <Michael_TC> (I'm looking at "Hardware Browser")
[10:08] <ardchoille> MTecknology: I use gnome. Tried KDE and xfce but they weren't for me. Never tried compiz or beryl
[10:09] <keck0f_> hi
[10:09] <ardchoille> hi
[10:09] <sevenpacks> hahaha
[10:09] <Episcopus> bulmer; cwillu; anyone else that was helping me try to figure how to make my wireless card work again:  the solution that worked was to boot in kernel 2.6.17-10-generic and delete *-11-generic.  I thought you might like to know in case someone else comes in with the same problem
[10:10] <MTecknology> ardchoille, I LOVE Gnome... I also Love Compiz rbut Beryl is better. Only think is how unstable it is. I especially hate the Shift+Del reloads the windows manage
[10:11] <shockwave1> yeah i loaded beryl on one of my computers, but right now it is still too heavy and unstable for me
[10:11] <ardchoille> MTecknology: There's probably a way to disable that key combo
[10:11] <shockwave1> it looks really nice though
[10:12] <AxL> Hi !
[10:12] <keck0f_> Printing an ACSII textfile using "lpr mytextfile.txt" works great but printing it using "a2ps mytextfile.txt" will not print umlauts correctly. could ou help to repair a2ps?
[10:12] <MTecknology> ardchoille, I;m sure there is, but nobody seems to know the answer
[10:12] <ardchoille> lol
[10:13] <ardchoille> MTecknology: Maybe get on a beryl mailing list or look for some forums
[10:13] <ardchoille> MTecknology: Also ask in #ubuntu-effects
[10:13] <ardchoille> Michael_TC: yay!
[10:13] <Michael_TC> I'll go looking for a CD to burn it on tomorrow. :-P
[10:13] <ardchoille> I like the alternate cd
[10:14] <Michael_TC> :-D
[10:14] <MTecknology> ardchoille, i was un ubuntu-effects to get it working, i'm not too concerned about that last bugm everything else works so great :)
[10:14] <ardchoille> :)
[10:15] <MTecknology> ardchoille, the only serious gripe i have is the slow communication between my Airport Extreme and my Tablet
[10:15] <Michael_TC> Thanks for your help folks. :-)
[10:16] <MTecknology> at my university it's fast, but at home it takes a long time to look up a page, once it's found it goes fast
[10:17] <ardchoille> MTecknology: Apple?
[10:17] <MTecknology> ardchoille, my tablet is a Gateway, the Apple wireless access point is b/c that's all that would support what i needed at the time
[10:18] <MTecknology> TJ-45 && RJ-11
[10:18] <ardchoille> Ah
[10:18] <dimitri> hello
[10:18] <ardchoille> hi
[10:19] <dimitri> so yeah, I'm about a week into using linux, and am using Ubuntu to "get my feet wet" I gueess you can say....
[10:19] <MTecknology> ardchoille, I even disabled IPv6
[10:19] <ardchoille> MTecknology: Me too, that's one of the first things I do on a new install
[10:20] <shockwave1> ipv6?
[10:20] <MTecknology> ardchoille, thing is, at the university, i think both ends are capable of it... and disabling it doesn't seem to help at home
[10:20] <ardchoille> MTecknology: Probably no need in disabling it at home
[10:21] <MTecknology> shockwave1, ip a | grep iv6
[10:21] <dimitri> but I'm having trouble installing things....I'm trying to get giFToxic, or a similar client, and I really am having a hard time with the installation processes...
[10:22] <ardchoille> dimitri: What does giFToxic do?
[10:22] <yurimxpxman> Does anyone know how to force a resolution?
[10:22] <yurimxpxman> I have a widescreen at 1280x800 right now but i want 1440x900
[10:22] <ardchoille> !fixres | yurimxpxman
[10:22] <ubotu> yurimxpxman: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[10:23] <shriphani> dimitri, it is in the repos
[10:23] <yurimxpxman> it isnt a problem
[10:23] <dimitri> ardchoille, it is a client for the giFT p2p network, which goes into other p2p networks, like gnutella, or ares
[10:23] <yurimxpxman> I just want to force a resolution
[10:23] <ardchoille> dimitri: Ah, ok
[10:23] <shriphani> dimitri, type sudo aptitude install giftoxic
[10:24] <dimitri> shriphani, it said that there was no package that was named "giftoxic"
[10:24] <jack_deltrino> does anyone use rdesktop around here? if so, why does (from terminal): rdesktop -u Administrator -p mypassword 10.0.30.31 not work? terminal services server is running on the machine
[10:24] <timfrost> !info giftoxic
[10:25] <ubotu> giftoxic: GTK2 based GUI for the giFT filesharing system. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.0.10-4 (edgy), package size 64 kB, installed size 416 kB

[10:25] <jack_deltrino> the password doesn't transfer over into the password box, but the user string does transfer over to the user box
[10:25] <dimitri> ardchoille, how would I go about doing that?
[10:25] <ardchoille> Why don't the universe and multiverse repos come enabled by default?
[10:26] <dimitri> archodille, just sudo enable universe", I'd imagine?
[10:26] <shockwave1> i think because some of the stuff is either not stable or might break copyright laws

[10:27] <ardchoille> shockwave1: Makes sense, thanks
[10:27] <ardchoille> dimitri: I wish it were that easy
[10:27] <Allen3373> gyaresu: ok, ready for the update?
[10:28] <pipak> hello, could someone help for with gcc? :)
[10:28] <gyaresu> Allen3373: The disk booted?
[10:28] <dimitri> ardchoille, haha, gotcha....I'm reading it all now =)
[10:28] <timfrost> pipak, what is the problem?
[10:29] <Allen3373> gyaresu: well, it actually did the same error if I let it do the normal boot. But I did an alternate for puppy, nd got that to work in live CD. What now?
[10:29] <gyaresu> Allen3373: Hang on a second. What do you mean "did an alternate for puppy"
[10:30] <pipak> timfrost; how can I generate a.out files?
[10:30] <MTecknology> how do i get rid of all of xfce and kde?
[10:30] <MTecknology> I installed them with kubuntu-desktop and xubuntu-desktop
[10:30] <ardchoille> pipak: a.out files are generated when you compile a C file: gcc file.c  would generate a.out
[10:30] <Fuzzehskittlez> wuts next
[10:30] <Allen3373> gyaresu: INstead of letting it do the error screen, I typed 'puppy acpi=off' I think it was acpi. or apci. one of the two lol
[10:30] <Fuzzehskittlez> ctrl alt nexT?
[10:30] <timfrost> pipak, a.out format?
[10:31] <pipak> ardchoille: what about the linker?
[10:31] <Fuzzehskittlez> how do i press ctrl alt next?
[10:31] <gyaresu> Allen3373: So you downloaded the http://pupplinux.org iso and booted that?
[10:32] <jack_deltrino> does anyone know?
[10:32] <Allen3373> gyaresu: yeah, but using the boot method of 'puppy acpi=off' instead of the normal boot. that gave me the error message again.
[10:32] <Fuzzehskittlez> ...
[10:32] <pipak> timfrost; a.out, the old binary format
[10:33] <shockwave1> are you trying to do something special with the boot? I have loaded 2 versions of puppy on 3 computers with no problem
[10:33] <shockwave1> what is the error that you are getting?
[10:33] <MTecknology> How do I get rid of a package and all of it's dependencies?
[10:33] <Allen3373> shockwave1: me?
[10:33] <ardchoille> MTecknology: Edgy? Dapper?
[10:33] <Fuzzehskittlez> IS there a cube rotate screen saver?!
[10:33] <pipak> ardchoille: it seems gcc generates elf objects only
[10:33] <MTecknology> ardchoille, egdy
[10:33] <shockwave1> synaptics
[10:34] <Fuzzehskittlez> ...
[10:34] <ardchoille> MTecknology: sudo apt-get purge --auto-remove app
[10:34] <timfrost> pipak, the default compiler/linker won't do that - they are tuned to generating ELF.  Are you trying to cross-compile something?
[10:34] <gyaresu> Allen3373: So normal pupplylinux booting was successful. Hmm. You probably just need to pass a boot option to the normal ubuntu-desktop-blah cd to make it work. Of course now you have to figure out what that is...
[10:34] <shockwave1> allen3373:yes
[10:34] <ardchoille> pipak: I am learning C ATM and compiling a C app generates a.out (assembler output)
[10:34] <MTecknology> ardchoille, that removes dependencies also?
[10:34] <Allen3373> gyaresu: no idea what you're talking about lol
[10:35] <ardchoille> MTecknology: That is what the --auto-remove is for. Dapper didn't have that option but Edgy does.
[10:35] <MTecknology> ardchoille, ty
[10:35] <LinuxNoob> I have a very bad problem :( Can someone tell me how to fix: "GDM failed to start, no screens found"?
[10:35] <gyaresu> shockwave1: Allen3373 Is trying to install ubuntu. The puppy linux iso boots fine. So we (i'm) trying to figure out what kernel boot params he needs.
[10:35] <riqz> morning everyone
[10:35] <Allen3373> shockwave1: after trying to install ubuntu and also puppy the normal way, it says 'unknown interruption fault a EIP 00000060 C01002B1 000002B0'
[10:36] <pipak> ardchoille:  objdump -a bootc.o ->  bootc.o:     file format elf32-i386
[10:36] <pipak> bootc.o
[10:36] <Allen3373> shockwave1: emphisis on the 'me' part in gyaresu's comment lmao
[10:36] <shockwave1> gyaresu: ok gotcha. sorry i came in middle conversation

[10:36] <erUSUL> LinuxNoob: X windows missconfiguration try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[10:36] <gyaresu> Allen3373: Kernel boot parameters are like telling the Linux kernel to not load drivers for certain devices because maybe that existant/nonexistant device driver is causeing the crash.
[10:36] <TheMonkeyMo1> does anyone know of any free graphing software that is available as a binary? I can't seem to get graphcalc or fungcalc to compile properly
[10:36] <ardchoille> MTecknology: Not sure if this works in Edgy, you might read it and see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome
[10:36] <Remorse_> Hi
[10:36] <isofunk> hey
[10:36] <nwonknu-> hello
[10:36] <pipak> timfrost; exactly
[10:36] <MTecknology> ardchoille, E: Invalid operation purge
[10:37] <Allen3373> gyaresu: I see. but remember, ubuntu won't let me type anything in... oh, wait, in the alternate one it would if I hit F6. is that how I would need to do it?
[10:37] <LinuxNoob> erUSUL, mkay... so I type that and follow on screen instructions?
[10:37] <ardchoille> MTecknology: Sorry, i'ts  --purge
[10:38] <shockwave1> Allen3373:what type of computer are you trying to install on?
[10:38] <gyaresu> You add those parameters after this line in /boot/grub/menu.lst or while the machine is booting: "/vmlinuz-2.6.17-11-generic root=UUID=b65a249b-0292-4e98-94b2-26b0a50c7a1c ro quiet splash"
[10:38] <isofunk> interest
[10:38] <nwonknu-> secret
[10:38] <k1piee> ??
[10:38] <gyaresu> Allen3373: Yes.
[10:38] <MTecknology> ardchoille, E: Invalid operation xubuntu-desktop
[10:38] <Allen3373> gyaresu: ok
[10:38] <erUSUL> LinuxNoob: yes
[10:38] <MTecknology> ardchoille, do i need to throw in a remove in there?
[10:38] <LinuxNoob> ok, time to reboot and give it a shot... thanx
[10:38] <gyaresu> Allen3373: And if you hit ESC while the desktop version is loading that will show you the 'grub' boot loader.
[10:38] <ardchoille> MTecknology: There's an easier way, check that link I gave you.

[10:38] <MTecknology> aight, thanks
[10:39] <langtudatinh04> clone?
[10:39] <timfrost> pipak, you need to build (or locate) a cross-compiler for the target architecture.  You probably won't find it in the standard repositories.
[10:40] <testfiesty> just looking at feisty...no automatix, no easyubuntu, wild goose chase, any tips?
[10:40] <testfiesty> hmm, maybe just wait a bit longer?
[10:40] <testfiesty> :P
[10:40] <dimitri> holy crap, this just got a hell of alot easier
[10:40] <ardchoille> testfiesty: I would suggest instead of using someone else's scripts that may break the system, learn how to install stuff yourself. That way you are more able to fix anything that goes wrong.
[10:41] <pipak> timfrost; well, the target arch is the same as the compiling machine, I just need to generate a.out files, so I guessed it would exist in ubuntu
[10:41] <testfiesty> ok, is there an easy add repositories some where?
[10:41] <timfrost> pipak, the target is different because you want a.out binary format.

[10:53] <shockwave1> Fuzzehskittlez:to get it to rotate you just hit alt/ctrl and then left or right button. or you can grab a program and move it off the screen and it should rotate
[10:54] <shockwave1> did i answer your question?
[10:54] <Fuzzehskittlez> ithe whole cube wil rotate and i dont gota hold thos buttons?
[10:54] <Fuzzehskittlez> i wanna leave my comp and ave it rotate
[10:54] <gyaresu> Allen3373: I just _can't_ find a list of options for you to try... Very frustrating.
[10:54] <Fuzzehskittlez> or stay zoomed out
[10:54] <shockwave1> oh...you mean without doing anything?
[10:54] <Fuzzehskittlez> yes
[10:54] <shockwave1> hmmm...i never tried to do that.
[10:54] <Allen3373> gyaresu: well, I can't say you tried to help. thanks man!
[10:54] <Fuzzehskittlez> ;9
[10:55] <Fuzzehskittlez> no cube rotate screen saver or anythin?

[10:56] <sverek> hello, i have a problem. i cant install ubuntu from cd because it cant mount the fs (the ramfs i suppose is used by the installer)  because cdrom is to new/no drivers   sony...can i install from a harddrive or some other alternative way?
[10:56] <shockwave1> also they might be able to help better if there is such an option
[10:56] <jack_deltrino> does anyone use rdesktop around here? if so, why does (from terminal): rdesktop -u Administrator -p mypassword 10.0.30.31 not work? terminal services server is running on the machine

[10:58] <gyaresu> Allen3373: I hope you have some luck. I'd bet on the kernel boot option though as the problem. Gotta sleep for a while.
[10:58] <Allen3373> gyaresu: thanks man. I'll see what I can dig up. later!
[10:58] <sverek> are there any alternativ installation options to cdrominstall? like ftp/hdd or other?
[10:59] <shockwave1> Allen3373: if it helps any. the feisty will be realesed mid april and hopefully your issues won't be present any longer
[10:59] <Allen3373> shockwave1: hopefully!
[10:59] <shockwave1> sverek:i believe you can do a network install
[11:00] <shockwave1> and not ubuntu, but some like puppy, can run and install from a usb.
[11:00] <shockwave1> you might check the forums to see if anyone has done install from usb with ubuntu
[11:01] <shockwave1> so any info on a easy install ps3 ubuntu?

[11:28] <sevenpacks> erik_,  you ran out of hdd space?
[11:28] <erik_> is fdisk a program or a command ?
[11:28] <sevenpacks> ...
[11:28] <nalioth> erik_: both
[11:28] <erik_> i did not ran out of space no
[11:29] <nalioth> erik_: you'll need to use it from the livecd

[11:30] <techie> good morning all
[11:30] <GirlRiver> erUSUL: thanks for that ... do you how I can verify a CD under Linux ?
[11:30] <tuskernini> !ask
[11:30] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:31] <nalioth> !tell GirlRiver about verify
[11:31] <techie> how do i make ubuntu recognize my usb ports?
[11:31] <dimitri> I just downloaded a new theme for my ubuntu....how do I set it?
[11:31] <GirlRiver> nalioth: thanks
[11:31] <graham> Hi all, how do i make kaffeine saty on top while palying?
[11:31] <nalioth> !tell dimitri about themes
[11:31] <techie> trying to send information from handheld recorder to pc via usb cable. There is no signal of recognition when I insert the cable!!!
[11:32] <nalioth> techie: do other USB devices work?
[11:32] <I-kido> dimitri, kde or gnome?
[11:32] <Askar> What is orphaned packages? Is it safe to remove those?
I have a dual boot xp and ubuntu. They all work in xp
[11:33] <I-kido> !deborphan
[11:33] <ubotu> deborphan is a program used to clean up packages that are no longer needed (install from Synaptic/Adept).
[11:33] <nalioth> techie: do any work in Ubuntu?
[11:33] <techie> no
not so far
[11:33] <erUSUL> GirlRiver: what do you mean by "verify"? md5sum ??
[11:33] <dimitri> I-kido, Gnome
[11:33] <GirlRiver> nalioth: maybe I should be more specific .. sorry: Is it possible to verify that a CD is fully readable without errors without having MD5 checksum ?
[11:33] <nalioth> theOlster: then Ubuntu probably doesn't recognize your particular device
[11:33] <GirlRiver> erUSUL: Not MD5sum
[11:33] <Askar> thanks  I-kido
i went to windows last night and there they are recognized!
[11:33] <I-kido> dimitri System>Preferences>Themes  open that first
[11:34] <nalioth> GirlRiver: yes, there is a self check option on the cd (when it loads, you can choose it)
[11:34] <I-kido> Askar yw :)
[11:34] <dimitri> I-kido, done so
[11:34] <nalioth> techie: understood.  just because windows recognizes it, doesn't mean Ubuntu will
I agree
[11:34] <I-kido> dimitri drag your downloaded theme to that window
could it be an issue of commands to make ubuntu recognize them?
[11:35] <GirlRiver> nalioth: thank you .. that works for the Ubuntu Live CD ... can I check any other arbitrary CD ?
this is my fourth day in Ubuntu.
[11:35] <nalioth> techie: i'm not real big on USB stuff . .   :(
I hear you.
[11:35] <nalioth> GirlRiver: unless there is a self-check mechanism built into the cd, no.
[11:35] <dimitri> I-kido, it says that the file format is not valid
[11:35] <I-kido> !usbutils
[11:35] <ubotu> usbutils: USB console utilities. In component main, is important. Version 0.72-4ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 101 kB, installed size 356 kB
maybe I can go around it a different way.
[11:35] <I-kido> dimitri what format is it /
I have a handheld recorder with information which I want to transfer to the pc
[11:36] <dimitri> I-kido, .theme, it says
if I can't do it in here, I can always go to windows and just do that!
[11:36] <mitrovarr> is there anything you have to do to make SATA drives run at full performance (the equivilent of turning DMA on)?
until resolved.
[11:36] <I-kido> dimitri .theme is for windoze?
[11:36] <nalioth> techie: if you need the info in Ubuntu, /msg ubotu ntfs
[11:37] <dimitri> I-kido no, a MacOS-X theme
[11:37] <I-kido> dimitri try www.gnome-look.org
 why ntfs!
[11:37] <Askar> Hey..whats the differencce between ext2 and ext3? =-O
[11:37] <dimitri> I-kido that's where I got the theme
[11:37] <I-kido> dimitri could u give me the link?
[11:37] <nalioth> techie: you can pull the info off on the windows side, and grab it from within Ubuntu  (but you need to /msg ubotu ntfs   to see how to do it)
if this helps I have windows mounted so I can see every record from windows. perhaps I can run the program from windows here, if so how do i do it?
[11:38] <nalioth> Askar: ext3 is ext2 with journaling enabled
understood.
[11:38] <Askar> nalioth: journaling? :-[
[11:38] <H264> Hi...
[11:38] <nalioth> Askar: a form of data protection
[11:38] <GirlRiver> nalioth: I know I am off topic here but ... would making an ISO image of the CD be sufficient test to prove that the whole CD can be read without error
i just ask ubotu, but how do you grab it?
[11:39] <H264> I just installed Ubuntu, and I was downloading some updates and now the whole screen is black
[11:39] <nalioth> GirlRiver: i'm not quite sure i understand.  you can theoretically make an iso image from a cd that is nothing but garbage . .
[11:39] <H264> the only thing you can see is the mouse
[11:39] <dimitri> I-kido, http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=13548
[11:39] <nalioth> techie: you'd mount your windows drives read-only and copy the data in Ubuntu
[11:40] <I-kido> dimitri ok tnx
[11:40] <degreseven> anyone here good with crontabs?
[11:40] <jack_deltrino> what is your question
[11:40] <degreseven> if i want to run a command every 30 minutes between 11:30 pm and 10:30 am, is this what i want?  */30 23-10 * * *
[11:41] <dimitri> I-kido, no problem
[11:41] <H264> and you can move the mouse around as well as notice that the mouse is changeing from the loading icon to the pointing icon to the text-select (I shaped) icon
[11:41] <GirlRiver> nalioth: agreed ... however, in the process of creating that ISO image, will I get some indication if one 0or bits of the CD can not be read ?
[11:41] <H264> any ideas to what might be the problem?
[11:41] <nalioth> H264: i take it you have another computer?
[11:41] <nalioth> GirlRiver: you will, yes.
[11:41] <seravitae__> okay this is about the 20th time this is happened, sometimes, randomly when i close VLC, or stepmania, or XMMS, something that uses sound, sound won't work anymore - XMMS gives an error that that something might be blocking the soundcard
[11:41] <H264> several :)
[11:41] <I-kido> dimitri, u can drag the gtk theme to themes and the icon themes as .tar.gz to the themes window
[11:41] <nalioth> H264: join me in #ubuntu-classroom please
[11:42] <GirlRiver> nalioth: thank you for your help .. I shall try my little test
[11:42] <Vagant> Greetings.
maybe I did not express it correctly. I already can do that, but not all programs are accesible.
[11:42] <Vagant> I have problems mounting two new disks...
[11:42] <nalioth> techie: i thought you were after information... not programs
my entire windows is already mounted in /mnt/windows
[11:42] <Vagant> Can someone explain me why I "see" /dev/hdc and /hdc1 ?
sorry.
[11:43] <dimitri> I-kido, I have already tried that, and it wont work
you are correct but there is only one program i needed to transfer my taped information from handheld to pc
I know there is a way to "fake windows" or something to allow me to run the program.
[11:44] <I-kido> dimitri extract the files, adn tell me when done
[11:44] <nalioth> techie: i'm confused.  isn't information readable by anything?
but the issue is still that the usb are not recognized in Ubuntu!
[11:44] <nalioth> techie: boot into windows, and pull the info while booted into windows
yes I will have to do that. thanks for your help.
and thanks about the /msg ubotu ntfs .... that is very helpful.
[11:45] <dimitri> I-kido, they are extracted, and have been, it still wont let me put MacOS-X in /.themes
[11:46] <dimitri> I-kido It keeps saying "file format is invalid"
[11:46] <I-kido> hold on dimitri i'll install it on my system, just to check
[11:47] <dimitri> I-kido, thanks

[11:52] <NotKamu> cmon
[11:52] <NotKamu> you can do better than that?
[11:53] <khaije1> nalioth: shockwave1: what do you guys think of them, would you reccomend them?
[11:53] <dimitri> I-kido, I think I'll be alright...I was just dpoing that one as a test run.....I'm going to look for a different skin, but I'll let you know if it does anything wierd =)
[11:53] <I-kido> dimitri, download again, it might help

[11:56] <khaije1> maybe w/ some virtual machiens
[11:56] <nalioth> khaije1: i'm not quite sure how linux compatible the new ones are (new hardware is the achilles heel of linux)
[11:56] <omegabeta> mneptok: Because thats elitest and silly, I'd end up screwed and I wouldent know where to start
[11:56] <mneptok> omegabeta: and the first step to becoming a real computer user rather than a "I CAM THEME XP I AM A HAXXXXX0RR!!!!" is to dump WoW.  ;)

which program do you recommend for Publishing newsletters the counterpart of MS Publisher in windows?

there is a publisher in there?
[11:57] <susscorfa> anyone know a tool for marking text in pdfs ?
[11:57] <omegabeta> mneptok:No, not using a GUI is fine, telling someone they should not use a gui that is not skilled enough to do otherwise is
[11:57] <shockwave1> my toshiba has been great

Which would be the best way to configure this (well the simplest way) ?

[11:58] <shockwave1> it's worked really good with all the version ive played with
I will begin to experiment with it.. thanks.
[11:58] <mneptok> omegabeta: i asked why you need a GUI on an installation *you said* was going to be used to educate you about the console. it's a fair question.
[11:58] <susscorfa> I-kido: that is for viewing but i want to mark txt in them
[11:59] <khaije1> i wish there was a website that would let me plug in all the important factors to me and give me a list of laptops, it's tricky to pick

[12:00] <mitrovarr> does anyone know if you need to do anything special to get full performance out of SATA hard drives (like turning on DMA)?
[12:00] <nalioth> !tell upd about cli
[12:01] <mneptok> mitrovarr: the Linux kernel is pretty good about using all SATA features the BIOS presents to it
[12:01] <omegabeta> mneptok: Ok, the deal is, I do not have the skill set to go "straight" to black and white.. But I want to make a transition that sits somewhere nicely inbetween.. something that still has X, but mostly relys on evoking through console.. that way i get the best of both worlds and stillgain skills..
[12:01] <mitrovarr> mneptok:  Good to know.  Since it doesn't report that it's in DMA mode I was a bit worried.
[12:02] <khaije1> nalioth: i'm picky, i don't want to pay for an OS that i'm not going to use
[12:02] <omegabeta> mneptok: problem is, using gnome/kde etc, I have the "option" to point click.. I'd like alot of that taken away so that i am "forced" to learn otherwise, in an enjoyable way
[12:02] <nalioth> khaije1: you have no choice if you buy Apple hardware
[12:02] <mitrovarr> omegabeta:  I was thinking xfce, that's light but I don't think it really kicks you to the CLI any more often than gnome or kde.
[12:02] <khaije1> nalioth: did you consider any other lappy's before you got the macbook?
[12:03] <mneptok> omegabeta: every single WM/DE is going to give you that safety net. there's no Unix GUI environment that ignores a mouse ;)
[12:03] <mitrovarr> wasn't there one that was designed to be keyboard only?

[12:24] <Geezer> hi
[12:24] <obelix> what about it makes it french?
[12:24] <nutterpc> dunno, they say its that

[12:25] <obelix> my printer doesn't print.
[12:25] <Geezer> tell it off
[12:25] <obelix> i did
[12:26] <obelix> it just ignores me and sits there
[12:26] <nutterpc> obelix: when was the last time you told your printer that you loved it?
[12:26] <obelix> how rude
[12:26] <Geezer> give it a smack
[12:26] <obelix> i want it to print
[12:26] <obelix> printing is like snacking for a printer
[12:26] <obelix> the more you print, the more ink i'll give you
[12:26] <Geezer> lol
[12:26] <nutterpc> teach it the art of "plug & play"
[12:26] <nutterpc> :P
[12:27] <Geezer> maybe it's the material you are printing that the printer doesn't agree with
[12:27] <Geezer> ;)
[12:27] <obelix> ok, the pitch is green, so lets play
[12:27] <obelix> maybe
[12:27] <nutterpc> Geezer: damn that ascii pr0n
[12:27] <obelix> i can't force me conservative opinion on it
[12:28] <obelix> ok seriously.
[12:28] <obelix> Printer doesn't print.
[12:28] <obelix> Edgy, samsung 2010.
[12:28] <nutterpc> is cups running?
[12:28] <obelix> USB
[12:28] <Geezer> do you know any servers that are good to check out on IRC
[12:28] <obelix> CUPS is cupping
[12:29] <nutterpc> have you checked to see if your printer is supported?
[12:29] <obelix> i just enabled network browsing and it restarted, so i'm assuming that it's running
[12:29] <obelix> well it worked fine in opensuse, and it has the driver for the model.
[12:29] <nutterpc> rightyo
[12:29] <nutterpc> I shall call it "Ghost Printer"
[12:30] <obelix> Samsung ML2010
[12:30] <nutterpc> so from when you plug it in, what does it or doesn't it do?
[12:30] <obelix> well i print something and it just stays in the queue and says "printing"
[12:31] <obelix> but the printer doesn't do anything except stick it's big paper catching tongue out
[12:31] <nutterpc> hmm
[12:31] <nutterpc> dunno why, but it stinks of a postscript problem
[12:31] <nutterpc> first thought that hit me head
[12:32] <obelix> just read something about the printer supplying software : http://ywwg.com/wordpress/?p=309
[12:32] <obelix> So I'm checking out the cd
[12:32] <obelix> maybe
[12:32] <nutterpc> nod
[12:33] <nutterpc> can you see which postscript model the printer is currently using?

[12:41] <curdie> can you use the driver for redhat or suse or must i somehow install the stuff through kernel
[12:41] <nutterpc> have you tried using Alt +F2, then type xterm, to launch the utility manually?
[12:41] <curdie> no
[12:41] <nutterpc> see if that helps
[12:41] <Narqulie> A quick n00b guestion.. How can I extract stuff as sudo?, to a specific folder that need permission?

[12:44] <nutterpc> you said you need to get to system, which bit specifically?
[12:46] <erUSUL> curdie: the red hat 9 driver won't work. you should be able to see the disks attached to the card if you didn't enabled any raid features through the card bios (usualy you just put it in jbod mode)
[12:46] <curdie> that was my guess also...
[12:46] <curdie> the site also has suse driver and source for kernell
[12:46] <nutterpc> babo: if you can get me the exact model of the laptop, I can probably see what there is that makes that laptop tick

[12:47] <Hmmmm> ekul`, ubuntuguide.org is your new best friend
[12:47] <nutterpc> ekul`: there should be a guide on the ubuntuforums on how to get skype running
[12:47] <lukasz> hi all

[12:48] <ekul`> Thanks Hmmmm and nutterpc :)

[12:48] <ekul`> my other problem is with scrolling, it is really slow and it puts lines across the screen whenever i scroll a webpage or here in chat. Any idea what that might be? graphics driver?
[12:48] <nutterpc> leo|server: either your server has some issues, or the clients have
[12:48] <ekul`> Fresh install yes shrihani
[12:49] <nutterpc> leo|server: probably graphics, I've had that issue before
[12:49] <leo|server> what might does issues be, serverside, nutterpc  :)
[12:49] <babo>  how do I access the system settings from the keyboard ...
[12:49] <babo> ?
[12:49] <nutterpc> leo|server: what ftp server have you got setup
[12:49] <leo|server> grapics?
[12:49] <leo|server> proftpd

[12:50] <MarkCh> nutterpc: thats slow.
[12:50] <ekul`> that might as well be french to me, lol.. doi  type that into console?
[12:50] <ekul`> aah k awesome :D thanks
[12:50] <MarkCh> and buggy.
[12:50] <nutterpc> MarkCh: or the default one that comes with ubuntu
[12:50] <leo|server> dont know if downloading worked befire that but should it even matter?
[12:50] <nutterpc> atm, personally, I use BitTornado
[12:50] <MarkCh> the default doesnt allow multiple downloads.
[12:51] <vignesh> Hi
[12:51] <MarkCh> bittornado doesnt seem to allow multiple downloads too, im afraid.

[12:51] <nutterpc> leo|server: does everyone get corrupt files from your ftp when they download?
[12:51] <babo> guys, my touchpad is locked, I need to enable it. How can I do that from the keyboard ?
[12:51] <vignesh> Also I don`t get any sound
[12:51] <curdie> nutterpc what do you suggest i do...
[12:51] <nutterpc> or is it just certain people
[12:51] <leo|server> yea nutterpc
[12:52] <leo|server> but i can open the files over samba and so on
[12:52] <piedoggie> at the end of the Cpu line id are the lables id, wa, hi and si.  is == idle wa= wait but what does hi and si mean?
[12:52] <leo|server> not like they are corrupt before the ftp has a go at them
[12:52] <Askar> Hi! Is there a gnome-panel applet that shows if I have new mails in evolution without having evolution open?
[12:52] <nutterpc> curdie: thinkin
[12:53] <MarkCh> Askar: try alltray to hide evolution
[12:53] <MarkCh> zero configuration that way.
[12:53] <nutterpc> leo|server: have you tried using a different ftp server?
[12:53] <nutterpc> see if that helps
[12:53] <vignesh> anyone ?
[12:53] <ekul`> shriphani i typed that, and i think it downloaded and installed. Do i have to reboot? scrolling isnt much better.
[12:54] <shriphani> ekul`, you just installed the dependencies
[12:54] <ekul`> are they kind of like drivers? :S (sorry for my noobness)
[12:54] <shriphani> now go to the directory where you got the skype deb package
[12:54] <leo|server> well yea, vsftpd and proftpd, but that was just to get  going, never really downloaded anything until know with proftpd
[12:54] <babo> Does anyone know how I can access my touchpad settings ?
[12:54] <ekul`> Ahhhh ok :D great
[12:55] <shriphani> ekul`, do it from the terminal
[12:55] <Askar>  MarkCh: how do I use that?
[12:55] <shriphani> i.e. cd path/to/directory
[12:55] <babo> my computer is just a useless hunk of trash, until i can toggle back on my touchpad ...
[12:55] <nutterpc> leo|server: see if setting a different ftp server up does anything, if it doesn, score, you know whats caused it, if it doesn't, then you know there's a deeper issue
[12:55] <MarkCh> sudo apt-get install alltray
[12:55] <ekul`> Oh i did it from the folder i downloaded it to, but thanks :D
[12:55] <babo> god, how annoying is this ?
[12:55] <ekul`> now i know howto u se the treminal
[12:55] <MarkCh> open alltray, click on evolution, youre done.
[12:55] <ekul`> how tou se*
[12:55] <MarkCh> also great if you enale evolution's sound notifications.
[12:55] <leo|server> k nullman
[12:55] <ekul`> DAMN im so laggy :(
[12:56] <leo|server> k nutterpc  even :) ty
[12:56] <nutterpc> leo|server: that's the easiest option
[12:56] <nutterpc> try a different ftp server
[12:56] <nutterpc> if it works, completely get rid of the other one
[12:56] <vignesh> can anyone help me configure my sound card ?

[12:57] <ekul`> push numlock?
[12:57] <nutterpc> babo: I asked for some details earlier man, and you left
[12:57] <vignesh> erUSUL: what ?
[12:57] <leo|server> do you think it could have anything to do with locale nutterpc ? UTF-8 and ISO getting mixed up?
[12:57] <nutterpc> I needed the exact model number of your lappy, but you left without tellin me
[12:58] <nutterpc> not locale, don't think that has anything to do with it
[12:58] <babo> nutterpc: I don't have control over my system dude. I press a button, then the caret disappears, and the only thing I can do is to quit and start up again ...
[12:58] <ekul`> This is great :D I already dont want to go back to windows. Thanks so much for your help everyone :)
[12:58] <vignesh> mine is an sigmatel card
[12:58] <nutterpc> babo: if you can read the model stickers off the bottom of the laptop for me, that would help

[12:59] <d1me0> hi! It is true that in order to install the pkg ipw2200-source in a dapper, one should add a sarge repository?

[01:00] <babo> nutterpc: I need to access the touchpad settings, what does it matter what the model number is ?
[01:00] <babo> there's got to be a way to tweak those settings without gnome right ? ... there doesn't seem to be a touchpad program

[01:17] <qwerty2k> ekul`, have you installed the nvidia binary drivers?
[01:17] <ekul`> nope, total noob here, so no idea how
[01:18] <qwerty2k> !nvidia

[01:18] <ekul`> :D
[01:18] <ekul`> this place is great, so helpful
[01:18] <qwerty2k> ekul`, though, if you want the very latest drivers, i would use the envy script http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[01:18] <mataks_> can someone help me i mess up with my xconf
[01:18] <nanotalk> hi.. where should I put proxy configuration for wget? plz help.. somehow I can't googling right now
[01:19] <infidel> mataks, just change the driver back to nv
[01:19] <mataks_> infidel how? guide me please
[01:19] <jussi01> !envy | ekul`,
[01:19] <ubotu> ekul`,: envy is a Python script that eases installation of the official Nvidia and ATI drivers. Please see http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html . Developers may be interested in https://launchpad.net/products/envy - See also !Nvidia
[01:20] <nanotalk> my automatix not working, I guess it's because the wget can't pass the proxy
[01:20] <mataks_> infidel  still there?
[01:20] <ekul`> awesome thanks
[01:20] <IdleOne> !automatix | nanotalk
[01:20] <ubotu> nanotalk: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[01:20] <mataks_> how can i change my driver back to nv?
[01:21] <infidel> mataks, sudo nano -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf scroll down to where is says nvidia and change it to nv ctrl-x yes enter reboot
[01:21] <mataks_> ok infidel i'll try
[01:21] <qwerty2k> mataks, if that doesnt work (your screen goes funny) try vesa instead of nv
[01:21] <limbonic> Hello everybody.

[01:25] <jussi01> ekul goto the envy page - there are instructions there
[01:25] <ekul`> oh wow, thats much better than windows
[01:25] <jussi01> read down the page a fair bit
[01:25] <infidel> mataks, did you see the section for your video card?
[01:25] <`nicola> it's important, read instructions
[01:25] <ekul`> says bash:  run: command not found
[01:25] <techie1> what's the command for ubotu to get information about ntfs?

[01:26] <h3xagram> :((
[01:26] <`nicola> IdleOne, I can't believe that a simple package download from debian. org broke my system
[01:26] <qwerty2k> mataks, press ctrl+alt + f1, login to terminal, then run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

[01:28] <jip> a quick question: When a new LTS comes out, do I have to upgrade 6.06 installations to 6.10, 7.04 and 7.10 (or so) first?
[01:28] <h3xagram> omeil: you need to edit the grub conf file
[01:28] <limbonic> jip: No, you don't.
[01:28] <jip> limbonic: ok, thanks :)
[01:28] <limbonic> ;-)

[01:31] <omeil> h3xagram: k
[01:31] <jussi01> !splash | KeeNaF
[01:31] <ubotu> KeeNaF: To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.
[01:31] <limbonic> Hmm thanks, I got that one onboar dbut deactivated it since I need surround sound
[01:32] <`nicola> damn it is
[01:32] <techie1> Is there a way to "fake windows" and run window programs via Ubuntu?

[01:36] <jussi01> Xif, not sure sorry - sounds like something to contact the theme designer about
[01:36] <jussi01> techie1, yes, I use it whenever I need windows
[01:36] <zoidberg> hey guys
[01:37] <Xif> jussi01: yeah, I think it may have something to do with the window having focus, or somesort of "busy" status.
and does it run must of the programs???? If so, WOW!
[01:37] <zoidberg> what is up with the ubunut multimeda center

[01:37] <jussi01> techie1, it is windows running inside ubuntu
[01:37] <Xif> jussi01: how do I edit the preferences of the theme?  is there a GUI for theme editing?
[01:37] <jussi01> techie1, go and try it, you will see

[01:38] <jussi01> Xif, not really

[01:38] <mataks_> i use the reconfigure xserver.xorg
did you download the programs within windows or ubuntu? if so, does it make a difference. I mean the actual installation?
[01:38] <Xif> jussi01: ok, thanks anyways :)

[01:57] <root____2> ekimus: I'm not sure I understand what you're saying. This is what I'm supposed to do, but it doesn't work: http://negimaki.com/kb/index.php/using-an-ftp-client-tunneling-over-ssh2/
[01:57] <omeil> Can someone help me plz. i mount /dev/sda3 /media/windows but when i click there it just gives me and error.
[01:58] <riqz> mataks_: the name of ure grafics card
[01:58] <omegabeta> Question, How do you enable the use of pictures/movies in ZSH/Console
[01:58] <AJIEXA> I hace a problem with fonts in picasa  - what i can do to fix it ?????????//
[01:58] <omeil> it says you do not have the permission necessary to view the files
[01:58] <Lynoure> AJIEXA: picasa is a google product, right. You asked them yet?
[01:58] <mataks_> dunno i have nvidia GeForce FX 5500 video card
[01:58] <infidel> mataks_, do you have links installed?
[01:58] <riqz> mataks_: on a laptop right?
[01:58] <dang`r`us> omeil, then it's a permissions problem, not a ntfs problem
[01:59] <mataks_> riqz no
[01:59] <mataks_> infidel  what links?
[01:59] <riqz> mataks_: ok sec
[01:59] <dang`r`us> omeil, see the manpage for mount ("man mount"), section "options for ntfs"
[01:59] <mataks_> riqz on my desktop computer :)
[01:59] <ssl> hi,Guys.how to install quake3 on edgy?it said"can't find x86"..................
[01:59] <dang`r`us> omeil, set uid to your user's id or name
[01:59] <infidel> mataks_, it's a web browser for console
[02:00] <ekimus> root____2: that screen command in front of ssh is unnecessary. if you don't know screen it's useless for you. (actually it's usefull if you create a ssh tunnel on a remote server and want it to persist if you log out)
[02:00] <omeil> dang'r'us: im lost :)
[02:00] <dang`r`us> omeil, mount -ouid=omeil (or whatever your username is) /dev/sda3 /media/windows
[02:00] <mataks_> infidel; ok im not familiar to that
[02:00] <dang`r`us> omeil, wait
[02:00] <omeil> oh ok
[02:00] <dang`r`us> omeil, better:
[02:00] <dang`r`us> omeil, mount -oro,uid=omeil (or whatever your username is) /dev/sda3 /media/windows
[02:00] <dang`r`us> ro = readonly
[02:01] <infidel> mataks_, sudo apt-get install links
[02:01] <ekimus> root____2: >>ssh -N username@ssh.negimaki.com -p 22 -L 21:ssh.negimaki.com:21<< just do that and it will create the tunnel....
[02:01] <mataks_> infidel; where can i get that one? sounds interesting.. a web browser for console :) but nyways im on a GUI now
[02:01] <dang`r`us> (mounting ntfs read-write is a bit more complicated)
[02:01] <mataks_> sudo apt-get install inks
[02:01] <mataks_> oops
[02:01] <infidel> mataks_, so you can looks at web pages
[02:01] <infidel> mataks_, that's cool
[02:01] <riqz> mataks_: go here
[02:01] <mataks_> infidel; ok i already typed it in
[02:01] <riqz> mataks_: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_Graphics_Driver_.28NVIDIA.29
[02:02] <omeil> dang'r'us: nice woik :).
[02:02] <dang`r`us> you're welcome
[02:02] <riqz> mataks_: follow the guide and tell me when u installed the drivers
[02:02] <mataks_> riqz ok
[02:02] <mataks_> ok riqz  :)
[02:02] <mataks_> infidel; done.. how to use the console browser?
[02:02] <omeil> dang'r'us: have u configure the menu.lst file before to dual boot windows before?
[02:02] <shriphani> matason, ubuntu comes with a console browser
[02:02] <infidel> mataks_, just type links www.google.com
[02:02] <dang`r`us> omeil, not really, it's always worked out of the box for me
[02:03] <shriphani> sorry not matason it is for mataks_
[02:03] <omeil> dang'r'us: i installed ubuntu then installed windows. so its not configured properly :( have to do it manually
[02:03] <matason> No problem :)
[02:03] <Latitude^> what's gonna happen if i delete my linux swap partition? I never use it since my onboard ram handles the job
[02:03] <shriphani> mataks_, ubuntu comes with a console based web browser
[02:03] <omeil> Anyone know how to configure the menu.lst file to dual boot windows?
[02:03] <neo2dot0> how do i put icons into the gnome menu? there is only text now
[02:03] <ssl> Why i can't install quake3 on edgy?Is there anyone can help?
[02:03] <shriphani> Latitude^, how much of ram do you have ?
[02:04] <Arcad3> ssl:i can help you
[02:04] <dang`r`us> omeil, http://rafb.net/p/59k6HZ49.html  is mine
[02:04] <dang`r`us> omeil, you will need to change hd0,0 probably
how should i do?
[02:05] <Arcad3> use cedega
[02:05] <dang`r`us> omeil, you need to read up on grub's drive/device numbers
[02:05] <Arcad3> http://addict.66ghz.com
[02:05] <shriphani> cedega costs $$ doesnt it ?
[02:05] <root____2> ekimus: That worked, thanks so much. I wonder why he forced me to use screen all that time...
[02:05] <dextorion> A good uml tool would be? :)
[02:05] <omeil> dang'r'us: yeah your right. i got the windows xp listed on the grubs boot. but i didn't configure the drive properly. ill look into it
[02:05] <Arcad3> the one on my site is free
[02:05] <riqz> mataks_: hows it going mate
[02:06] <Arcad3> cracked 8-)
[02:06] <shriphani> Arcad3, really !!
[02:06] <shriphani> ohh
[02:06] <mataks_> riqz im still working on it :)
[02:06] <riqz> mataks_: :)
[02:06] <infidel> Arcad3, how did you get a free version?
[02:06] <Arcad3> cracked
I install it well on dapper,but on edgy,the install script said"no x86",maybe the "uname -m" return i686 not x86
[02:07] <infidel> Arcad3, ahh
[02:07] <ekimus> root____2: i think they want you to have a persistent session. screen is quite handy if you (for example) want to logout at night from your box but still have the tunnel active for some reason (I can't think of now :))
[02:07] <tur1> hi, can any one show me where i could down load assetml-voice-alphabet-en package, for 64 bit?
[02:07] <sasch> hi all
I don't know how to crack this....
[02:07] <Arcad3> wget http://www.addict.66ghz.com/cedega-all.tar.gz
[02:07] <Arcad3> tar xvzf cedega-all.tar.gz -C /

[02:10] <timhaughton> I have a problem with a couple of external hard drives on my server. When I'm streaming music off (to my Roku Soundbrdge) of watching video (just using Totem) I find that occasionally, the data transfer just stops for about 10 seconds, then starts again. The longer I'm using it, the more frequently it happens. Is there some setting tucked away somewhere that might cause disks to spin down or reset whilst in use??
[02:10] <root____2> ekimus: Ah yeah, that makes sense. I guess that's useful for him and some of the other users. Anyway, thanks a lot!
[02:10] <PeFu> @sasch: Did you use the textmode installer?
[02:10] <sasch> yes
[02:10] <unop> `nicola,  try installing libfontconfi1 manually .. download it from http://packages.ubuntu.com
 can i ask you in pvp ??
[02:11] <`nicola> thanks =)
[02:12] <frankzhao> hi, everybody?

[02:15] <ekul`> Hey, pretty new to ubuntu, do i need to install a firewall?
[02:15] <`nicola> unop, I can't start firefox for the same error
[02:15] <erUSUL> frankzhao: you can do /msg ubotu "factoid" (ej. /msg ubotu ntfs )
[02:15] <ekul`> !firewall
[02:15] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).

[02:16] <unop> `nicola,  try installing libfontconfi1 manually .. download it from http://packages.ubuntu.com
[02:16] <`nicola> unop, I can't start firefox
[02:16] <infidel> PeFu, you need to register
[02:16] <k1piee> Hello
[02:16] <isofunk> sup?

[02:16] <`nicola> can I reinstall libfontconfig1 using apt-get ? what's the command ?
[02:16] <IdleOne> !register | PeFu
[02:17] <ubotu> PeFu: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[02:17] <unop> `nicola,  is firefox your only browser?
[02:17] <`nicola> nautilus don't start for the same reason
[02:17] <unop> `nicola,  try this if your on edgy.  sudo aptitude install libfontconfig/edgy
[02:18] <unop> `nicola,  err.  sudo aptitude install libfontconfig1/edgy
[02:18] <riqz> mataks_ : u managed
[02:18] <riqz> mataks_ : ?
[02:18] <ekimus> !aptitude
[02:18] <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
[02:18] <frankzhao> thanks a lot erUSUL
[02:18] <ekimus> !apt-get
[02:18] <ubotu> APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[02:19] <`nicola> unop, it says that libfontconfig is already installed, how do i *reinstall* it ?
[02:19] <ekimus> hmm is apt-get or aptitude the "supported and preferred" way in ubuntu?
[02:19] <Hexan> `nicola use synaptic
[02:19] <`nicola> Hexan, synaptic doesn't start either =|
[02:19] <quux> Where is there discussion of the feisty repository?

[02:21] <unop> `nicola, sudo aptitude install -f libfontconfig1/edgy
[02:22] <matakss> and i think the driver is already set to nvidia..
[02:22] <jussi01> nicola, I assume it worked?
[02:22] <ekul`> is there a simpler way to have firewall/security than iptables

[02:22] <C41R0> hi hi to everybody, how to add extra repositories for downloader x?
[02:22] <leeba> I am looking at my Ubuntu server edition installation on my screen for my server
[02:22] <zoidberg> how do i get ubuntu to use the other monitor on the sceond video card to extend the desktop display?
[02:22] <jussi01> ekul`, firestarter

[02:23] <matakss> ok

[02:23] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[02:23] <`nicola> jussi01, it installed again tha font package and now applications work

[02:25] <IdleOne> C41R0, repositories are added in /etc/apt/sources.list be careful with adding non-supported repos as it may break your system
[02:26] <laurent_> Ubuntu has access to the web but can't get Windows 2000 to get to the internet
[02:26] <shriphani> isnt firestarter preinstalled ?
[02:26] <jussi01> zoidberg, have you searched on www.ubuntuforums.org? there are a lot of topics on it there
[02:26] <shriphani> !firestarter > shriphani

[02:31] <HymnToLife> leeba, do you have a dhcp server runing on your network or do you want to use static IP ?
[02:31] <leeba> static ip
[02:32] <mataks_> then after it says that i have to change nv to nvidia wich i didn't do cause it' already set to nvidia right?
[02:32] <leeba> hymntolife:static ip
[02:32] <riqz> mataks_ : change it to nvidia and try to restart x again

[02:32] <infidel> mataks_, did you have the proprietary drivers installed and 3d working?
[02:32] <HymnToLife> leeba, sudo ifconfig ethX inet 192.168.1.2 <= change X and the address accordingly of course
[02:32] <mataks_> infidel; dunno.
[02:33] <mataks_> riqz; how to change it to nvidia? wich one will i change?
[02:33] <HymnToLife> mataks_, do you see a nvidia logo when X starts ?
[02:33] <infidel> mataks_, install the nvidia drivers first and make sure 3d is working
I figure it out,it needs "sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash"change dash to bash.
[02:33] <retto> yup
[02:33] <riqz> mataks_ : u have to open xorg.conf
[02:33] <mataks_> infidel; how to know that the 3d is working/
[02:33] <shriphani> leeba, network-admin does these things quite well
[02:33] <mataks_> riqz; then after?
[02:33] <riqz> mataks_ : go to the driver section
[02:34] <retto> are u guys trying to figure out beryl?
[02:34] <mataks_> ok im opening it
[02:34] <riqz> mataks_ : and change Vesa to nvidia
[02:34] <infidel> mataks_, glxinfo | grep render
[02:34] <mataks_> riqz; the driver is already "Nvidia"
[02:35] <ekul`> typed sudo aptitude install firestarter but cant find firestarter under system > Administration, or anywhere..

[02:50] <mataks> infidel:  weeeeeeeee i can see my driver in it
[02:50] <whatspy> hey... huh, suppose I'm debugging an script that freezes sometimes (workin' on it), I do have to kill 5-10 instances of it, is there a shortcut to ps aux | grep something, THEN kill pid1 pid2...
[02:50] <riqz> Guys if i want to upgrade beryl do i just do sudo apt-get update or is it more complicated?
[02:50] <infidel> mataks, cool
[02:51] <Avantasia> trymmi: well it's the version that cames with feisty :S dunno about the edgy one
[02:51] <mataks> how can i use wine then? :)
[02:51] <mataks> thnx a  lot guys :)
[02:51] <riqz> mataks, good job mate
[02:51] <kaiyilen_> I've got a quick questions; how can i use grep to pull out lines out of history that start with chown?
[02:51] <HymnToLife> leeba, it's the identifier of the interface you want to use. If you don't know it, ifconfig -a will yell you
[02:51] <Avantasia> trymmi: but i guess it should work out of the box too, only need to edit a WoW config file to tell it to use OpenGL instead of d3d
[02:51] <shriphani> hmm now who was that who offered the cracked cedega ?
[02:52] <riqz> mataks_: hope i helped
[02:52] <mataks> riqz: dude you helped a lot.. you rock :) heheh
[02:52] <infidel> shriphani, i have his website
[02:52] <TimothyP> Hi, I installed a printer on ubuntu (NRG DSM725) the driver was in the list, and I also tried a new driver from the nashuatech website. The print seems to go out, the printer briefly receives something but that's where it ends. from windows it works
[02:52] <shockwave1> tur1: here is the review  http://www.softpedia.com/reviews/linux/Swiftfox-Review-47330.shtml
[02:53] <TimothyP> I have tried installing it via cups webinterface, with same results
[02:53] <tur1> shockwave1: great thanks!
[02:53] <Avantasia> trymmi: edit /World of Warcraft/WTF/Config.wtf add SET gxApi "OpenGL"
[02:53] <infidel> TimothyP, what does the printer do when it recieves the job
[02:54] <leeba> hymnToLife: ok i ran sudo ifconfig -a
[02:54] <TimothyP> it briefly starts making noise (like the cooling kicking in) and then it stops
[02:54] <TimothyP> do the same from windows and it prints
[02:54] <riqz> mataks_: hehe thx man. Its just tht i spent several nights myself learning how to install drivers
[02:54] <TimothyP> I have installed ubuntu for a desktop user in the company, if I can't get the printer to work I'll have to put windows back :(
[02:54] <leeba> hymnToLife:and it shows me a lot of info..so would i be looking for the op address, the subnet mask, the gateway or router or dns servers?
[02:55] <ekul`> !sound
[02:55] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[02:55] <TimothyP> in cups I used socket://172.16.10.1:9100
[02:55] <HymnToLife> none of them, you xant to set them yourself, don't you ?
[02:55] <riqz> right i need to poo. see you guys later
[02:55] <infidel> TimothyP, oh it's a jetdirect
[02:55] <leeba> HymnToLife: yes, i do
[02:55] <TimothyP> no
[02:55] <infidel> TimothyP, is it on a network?
[02:55] <nanotalk> !beryl
[02:55] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[02:56] <TimothyP> it's a Nashuatec NGR DSM 725 , it's connected to the network using a standard UTP cable
[02:56] <HymnToLife> so you just need the identifier of your interface, usually it's eth0 but sometimes it's different
[02:56] <TimothyP> has the IP address  172.16.10.1
[02:56] <riqz> mataks : cya later man btw... You might wanna download Beryl if u feel up to it
[02:56] <shriphani> infidel, i want to know what to type
[02:56] <infidel> TimothyP, well the configuration you used is for jetdirect nic
[02:56] <TimothyP> in windows we connect using DSM 725 drivers and tcp/ip port
[02:56] <shockwave1> can i get a little help with adobe flash for firefox? i dl and installed it by what i found on the forums, but firefox still doesn't see it when i hit about:plugins. and i don't think it's working
[02:56] <riqz> mataks_: best addon for ubuntu ever
[02:56] <leeba> HymnToLife: I am looking at the info my county gave me... with the command line you gave me , i assume the ip address is what i put in the section after ethXinet _______ but what do i put in X
[02:56] <shriphani> the -C flag doesnt work
[02:56] <leeba> oh ok
[02:56] <TeePOG> hi guys, does anyone feel like some hardware troubleshooting? I have an edgy installation which i've just cloned to an identical machine, but the master's network card is working and the clone's network card isn't.
[02:56] <infidel> shriphani, did you read his web page:
[02:56] <TimothyP> infidel what do I use for that one then ? it's the only option where I was allowed to specify an ip
[02:56] <shriphani> infidel, yeah
[02:56] <leeba> HymnToLife: so i look at the info from -a ...le3 me see
[02:57] <laurent_> how can I read networked MP3 with Amarok?
[02:57] <leeba> HymnToLife: looking ..inet6 ?
[02:57] <leeba> no
[02:57] <infidel> TimothyP, how is the printer connected?
[02:57] <mataks> riqz: ok i'll try :)
[02:57] <TimothyP> UTP cable
[02:57] <TimothyP> to the network
[02:57] <TimothyP> it's ip is 172.16.10.1
[02:57] <leeba> HymnToLife: so maybe i will just try 0
[02:57] <leeba> and see what happens
[02:57] <riqz> mataks_: lemme give u a link for thefaq
[02:57] <D1EG0> hi to all
[02:57] <mataks> ok :)
[02:58] <infidel> shriphani, where are you at in the install?
[02:58] <TimothyP> infidel, we use TCP/IP port with address 172.16.10.1 port 9100 when we connect to the printer from a windows machine
[02:58] <shriphani> infidel, i downloaded it
[02:58] <riqz> mataks_:  http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install_Beryl_on_Ubuntu_Edgy_with_nVidia#Automatic_installation
[02:58] <shockwave1>  can i get a little help with adobe flash for firefox? i dl and installed it by what i found on the forums, but firefox still doesn't see it when i hit about:plugins. and i don't think it's working
[02:58] <riqz> mataks_: i did automatic installation with the script. easy as pie
[02:58] <infidel> TimothyP, what's make?
[02:58] <shriphani> tar xvzf cedega-all.tar.gz -C doesnt work here
[02:58] <infidel> shriphani, what file format is it in?
[02:58] <riqz> mataks_: ure gonna love beryl
[02:59] <TimothyP> shockwave1, did you get flash 9 from the macromedia site ? then unzip and run the script
[02:59] <mataks> riqz: kool ok :) i'll try it dude
[02:59] <riqz> mataks_: gonna be away for a few mins
[02:59] <TimothyP> infidel, Nashuatec (NGR) DSM725
[02:59] <riqz> mataks_: lemme know if u get problem
[02:59] <mataks> ok :) you take care dude
[02:59] <TimothyP> the model is supported by Ubuntu apperantly (doing this on 2 different ubuntu computers btw)
[02:59] <shockwave1> i did it a few days ago. i followed the instructions i found on the ubuntu forum that someone had created
[02:59] <HymnToLife> leeba, here's what I get : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8789/
[02:59] <infidel> TimothyP, hold on a econd
[02:59] <kaiyilen_> how can i use grep to pull lines out of history that start with chown?
[02:59] <HymnToLife> so to configure my wired interface, I would put eth1
[03:00] <leeba> HymnToLife: oh me..how dumb can I be.... i am typing sudo ifconfig eth0inet and my ip address for my server?
[03:00] <leeba> i get error
[03:00] <HymnToLife> which error ?
[03:00] <leeba> SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
[03:01] <leeba> and eth0inet: error while getting interface flags: no such device
[03:01] <HymnToLife> don't forget to add a space in between ;)
[03:01] <TimothyP> leeba have you tried eth0   eth1 and eth2
[03:01] <HymnToLife> eth0 inet
[03:01] <TimothyP> :)
[03:02] <TeePOG> hey, hang on! i'm getting that error as well
[03:02] <MasterRa> i have a drive (hdd) which is "stuck" in a raid array (md0).. when i install mdadm it "autodetects" it and puts it in the array, but i don't want that! I can --stop the array, but if i reinstall mdadm, it autodetects it again! what can i do? :)
[03:02] <shockwave1> TimothyP: can i just use the instruction on adobes site to install?
[03:02] <babo> Can anyone help me debug a sound issue ? My microphone sound won't work :-(
[03:02] <TimothyP> infidel, I also installed the latest ppd from the NGR site, but that didn't help, so I'm guessing I have to use something other than hp jetdirect
[03:02] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP: No not yet.. i will it now.. space between which parts? this is exactly how i typed it.. sudo ifconfig eth0inet 10.21.8.2
[03:02] <TimothyP> shockwave1,  hang on I'll quickly look it up
[03:02] <HymnToLife> leeba, eth0 inet
[03:03] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP: ok..i will try that
[03:03] <shockwave1> TimothyP: thanks
[03:03] <TimothyP> shockwave1, let's start from scratch:   wget http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
[03:03] <omegabeta> How do i enable framebuffer in the kernal?
[03:03] <TimothyP> I have not installed it yet so I'll do it together with you now
[03:03] <HymnToLife> TimothyP, what's wrong with apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree ?
[03:03] <TimothyP> outdated
[03:04] <TimothyP> and there's a bug in it
[03:04] <ardchoille> HymnToLife: I was going to ask that
[03:04] <ardchoille> Ah
[03:04] <TeePOG> ok, but what if I can't give my card a static address? I need to use dhcp, except the card doesn't come up and then dhcp doesn't work
[03:04] <HymnToLife> oh
[03:04] <ardchoille> TimothyP: good catch
[03:04] <HymnToLife> it works fine here on Debian
[03:04] <shockwave1> yeah the non-free wasn't really working for me
[03:04] <HymnToLife> and with Flash 9 too :)
[03:04] <HymnToLife> but I'm sure there's an apt-gettable flash 9 somewhere
[03:04] <babo> The sound icon on my laptop is red. Meaning off I guess.
[03:04] <HymnToLife> !flash
[03:04] <TeePOG> and yes, my DHCP does work, I can PXE boot from the same server
[03:04] <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
[03:04] <ubotu> Flash 9 (Final release) is now available for dapper-backports and edgy-backports. See !backports and !flash
[03:04] <TimothyP> shockwave1, tar zxvf install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.g
[03:04] <defrysk> afaIk flash9 is in backports
[03:04] <babo> It's blue in windows and the microphone sound works fine
[03:04] <defrysk> and no bugs
[03:05] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP: BTW..should i be typing in my ip address or my schools proxy..ie 10.21.0.21 port 8080 instead of my ip address i am going to enter for my server?
[03:05] <TimothyP> shockwave1, cd install_flash_player_9_linux
[03:05] <babo> I'm on a hp pavillion 6000 and edgy
[03:05] <leeba> for my schoool not or
[03:05] <TimothyP> shockwave1, shutdown firefox and do ./flashplayer-installer
[03:05] <HymnToLife> leeba, the adress you're setting here is the address of your machine
[03:05] <shockwave1> TimothyP: i just run those 2 scripts?
[03:05] <TimothyP> no just the one I told you :)
[03:05] <TimothyP> ./flashplayer-installer
[03:05] <TimothyP> not the other one
[03:06] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP:right so us the ip address .. i thought maybe i was just getting access to enter the ip address for the machine...let me try
[03:06] <shockwave1> just .flashplayer-installer?
[03:06] <ekul`> I cant seem to get sound to work. Checked volume levels, that i have the right card selected...
[03:06] <infidel> TimothyP, http://openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=NRG-DSm725
[03:06] <TimothyP> shockwave1,  yes :) and then when it asks the directory enter /var/lib/mozilla-firefox
[03:07] <TimothyP> infidel, thank you I will take a look
[03:07] <TimothyP> oh infidel

[03:08] <rasputnik> lquit
[03:08] <TimothyP> oh shockwave1 , I forgot to mention you'd be best to sudo it :)
[03:08] <TimothyP> so it runs as root :)
[03:08] <shockwave1> TimothyP: i get no file or directory when running  .flashplayer-installer
[03:08] <TimothyP> sudo ./flash-player-installer

[03:14] <MasterRa> anyone have any ideas how to remove a drive from an md array that is not active? :)
[03:14] <riqz> trymmi: just browse the folders on wine until u get to the wow folder
[03:15] <trymmi> riqz, ah ok
[03:15] <Dakana> Has anyone heard of an issue with fglrx freezing X? I log in and panels remain blank, my desktop is a solid color, and the system is unresponsive except for the mouse pointer. CTRL+ALT+Backspace or F1 doesn't work either...
[03:15] <trymmi> Ok i'm in the wow folder
[03:16] <ekimus> trymmi: abyss?
[03:16] <riqz> trymmi: now double click on wow.exe
[03:16] <trymmi> I played WoW with someone called Ekimus a long time ago
[03:17] <Dakana> It started happening after I installed the fglrx package and changed 'ati' in my xorg.conf to 'fglrx' and ran 'sudo aticonfig --overlay-type=Xv'
[03:17] <mek_> Dakana: when does it happen, first startup time, or after a login/logout (/x-server kill)
[03:17] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP:ok.. let me ask you this. Since I am just trying to get this computer to use for a Drupal module for my school, do you think it would hurt to install the gui .. I just do not know command line well enough to get around otherwise.. Opinions?
[03:18] <Dakana> mek_: It happens after login
[03:18] <deep> Dakana: Hmm, did you do a dist-upgrade at the same time you installed fglrx and updated xorg.conf?
[03:18] <leeba> I can always learn then redo this as a server edition later...
[03:18] <HymnToLife> leeba, are you sure your network is not using DHCP ?
[03:18] <ekimus> trymmi: probably no, it's a character from a manga
[03:18] <Zero9983> any good converter for rm to avi?
[03:18] <drago84> net
[03:19] <trymmi> Riqz I did, but it didnt open with opengl
[03:19] <KenSentMe> Zero9983, ffmpeg or mencoder
[03:19] <KenSentMe> Zero9983, both are command line though
[03:19] <trymmi> That is what I want it to do
[03:19] <trymmi> ^^
[03:19] <babo> Can anyone help me debug a sound problem ? ... my microphone isn't working ...
[03:19] <Zero9983> KenSentMe: any software with GUI ?
[03:19] <riqz> trymmi: ok then now take note of the path to the wow.exe and type it in command line with -opengl command at the end
[03:19] <KenSentMe> Zero9983, wouldn't know
[03:20] <trymmi> Ok
[03:20] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP:actaually it may be ...
[03:20] <trymmi> Riqz how can I see the path?
[03:20] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP:oh me..so let me look at my laptop and see if i can see
[03:20] <Dakana> deep: Well, I did a fresh install of 6.10 yesterday (first time with Linux) and ran all the updates Synaptic wanted me to. When I rebooted, X wouldn't load at all, so I forced the 'vesa' driver in xorg.conf. That allowed me to boot X, so I then downloaded fglrx packages and installed them, made them the driver in xorg.conf, and rebooted. It let me into the login screen, but it's been freezing me after that.
[03:20] <TimothyP> leeba, it won't hurt no
[03:21] <Dakana> deep: the updates included a kernel update and some X related updates as well
[03:21] <TimothyP> you should use what you are most comfortable with :)
[03:21] <TimothyP> and don't let anyone tell you otherwise :)
[03:21] <riqz> trymmi: not sure right now
[03:21] <riqz> trymmi: try right clicking
[03:21] <HymnToLife> unless you have a very good reason not to :p
[03:21] <riqz> trymmi: and properites
[03:21] <babo> what's mic bypass ?
[03:22] <trymmi> Riqz there is no properties?
[03:22] <riqz> trymmi: just track back ure steps then
[03:23] <babo> what's IEC958 >
[03:23] <ekimus> is there a reason why raidtools2 isn't in edgy?
[03:23] <babo> ?
[03:23] <riqz> trymmi: depending on ure installation windows should be on hda1
[03:23] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP:yes, i am actually
[03:23] <trymmi> But how should I write it? I dont know where to put the /'s and suff
[03:23] <riqz> so probably /media/hda1/programs/worldofwarcraft/wow.exe -opengl
[03:23] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP:DHCP
[03:23] <babo> I've fiddled around with alsa all that I can think of doing. But it won't work ...
[03:24] <riqz> trymmi: so probably /media/hda1/programs/worldofwarcraft/wow.exe -opengl
[03:24] <deep> Dakana: hmm, ah, okay. Well if you rebooted, the kernel version is what the fglrx want it to. Besides, if you can see the loginscreen, then the driver loads anyway...
[03:24] <riqz> trymmi: but i wouldnt trust tht path if i were u
[03:24] <shockwave1> timothyP: you still there? i sent message to the private chat you opened
[03:24] <deep> Dakana: but... i don't have the slightest clue what the problem is. ^^
[03:24] <TimothyP> hmm
[03:24] <trymmi> RIqz can I fuck it up by trying your path?
[03:24] <TimothyP> I don't see it
[03:24] <TimothyP> :)
[03:24] <riqz> trymmi: no but i doubt its right
[03:24] <riqz> trymmi: i kinda guessed it
[03:25] <babo> I've reinstalled the alsa drivers and that didn't help either ...
[03:25] <TeePOG> hi guys, what's the command-line tool to configure a network interface? or do i need to work with ifconfig?
[03:25] <TimothyP> shockwave1, try again because I don't see your message
[03:25] <Dakana> deep: haha, well I'll try making a forums post. I gave up around 2am last night, and I'm at school now... at 9am >.<. I repeated the restart twice before I went to bed to verify, then gave up. I guess I'll see what happens when I get home today
[03:25] <shockwave1> really?
[03:25] <shockwave1> i can see yours
[03:26] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP:OK SO WHAT oops is that command?
[03:26] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP:for DHCP
[03:26] <babo> I also have a bit of a read out dump here, for any sound experts out there ... http://www.pastebin.ca/363526
[03:26] <TimothyP> dhcpdc eth0 I think
[03:26] <TimothyP> leeba, TAB loves you
[03:26] <deep> Dakana: haha, yeah, mabie everything is working flawless when you get home. ;) "It's a miracle" ^^
[03:26] <TimothyP> you press dhcp and press tab to see the various commands :)
[03:26] <TimothyP> it's one of those
[03:26] <HymnToLife> leeba, sudo dhclient eth0
[03:27] <deep> Is there a "playsound" command?
[03:27] <TimothyP> shockwave1, talk here then because I can't see sorry
[03:27] <shockwave1> TimothyP: ok
[03:27] <deep> Gaim wants one, to play .wav sounds.
[03:27] <Dakana> deep: Well, it's an older computer with hardware that's been through quite a lot... quirks happen :P
[03:27] <riqz> trymmi: did ya manage?
[03:27] <shockwave1> timothp: is it because i don't have a registered name?
[03:28] <liena> holaaaa
[03:28] <HymnToLife> deep, sudo apt-get install libsdl-sound1.2
[03:28] <liena> como estan
[03:28] <Jowi> !find playsound
[03:28] <trymmi> Riqz, no it was saying there is no such file or directory, but the error message I got with wine WoW.exe -openg was that there was no sounds.
[03:28] <HymnToLife> but you could have searched on http://packages.ubuntu.com yourself
[03:28] <trymmi> I mean
[03:28] <trymmi> Module
[03:28] <trymmi> lol
[03:28] <ubotu> File playsound found in libsdl-sound1.2
[03:28] <trymmi> wtf sounds
[03:28] <nanotalk> hi.. how to "force" the resolution, e.g. to WXGA ?
[03:28] <shockwave1> timothyp: so when i run this sudo ./flash-player-installer I get command not found
[03:29] <shockwave1> do i need to install something first?
[03:29] <liena> hola
[03:29] <riqz> trymmi: i dont think i can help u now. Dont know what could be wrong sorry. That's as far as i got
[03:29] <liena> holaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
[03:29] <HymnToLife> shockwave1, you're not in the correct dir, most likely
[03:29] <HymnToLife> or the script is not exacutable
[03:29] <deep> HymnToLife: and what command do i give Gaim after that? Isnt that just libs? ;O
[03:29] <trymmi> Okay..
[03:29] <HymnToLife> no, it's a bin
[03:29] <TimothyP> no
[03:29] <TimothyP> shockwave1, in what directory are you ?
[03:29] <HymnToLife> /usr/bin/playsound
[03:29] <trymmi> Fuck :( I'll have to install windows on the side then
[03:29] <HymnToLife> so I guess that's the command you need to pass
[03:29] <shockwave1> my main directory. the one it always is
[03:30] <nanotalk> my card actually support wxga; I've changed my driver to fglrx, but the wxga still not listed in resolution options
[03:30] <HymnToLife> shockwave1, cd to the extracted dir, then
[03:30] <overrider> hello, i have a 64bit amd cpu - should i download the 64bit iso of ubuntu, or better stick with the 32bit for compatibility? is 64bit already well enough for desktop use? all the apps work, etc?
[03:30] <shockwave1> did i need to run the cd line you gave me first?
[03:30] <TimothyP> yes
[03:30] <shockwave1> sorry i will have to redownload it. i don't have it on my desktop anymore
[03:30] <TimothyP> the first was wget, the second was tar -zxvf and then the cd command
[03:30] <HymnToLife> overrider, unless you need proprietary stuff like Flash Player, you can go with the 64bit
[03:31] <nanotalk> HymnToLife, no flash player for 64bit?
[03:31] <HymnToLife> no
[03:31] <shockwave1> i thought i only needed to run one. sorry i am kinda new at this. could you give them to me again?
[03:31] <Toma-> you can use it, but its a right PITA.
[03:31] <overrider> HymnToLife, mmkay, is it possible to run 32bit binaries in some sort of compat mode?
[03:31] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP:OK now i typed sudo dhclient eth0 and got a list of stuff... listent on LPF/eth0 etc.. Sending on ... dhcpdiscover on eth0..whoeing masks adn ports and interval dhcp offer, request, bougn to and renewel in 283445 seconds.. now what?
[03:31] <HymnToLife> there are ways to use the 32bit one on a 64bit Ubuntu but it's definitely not worth the hassle, imo
[03:32] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP:sorry i did not type it all out
[03:32] <TimothyP> leeba, ifconfig again and see what you got
[03:32] <HymnToLife> leeba, now you can do whateve you want to do, browse the web or whatnot
[03:32] <leeba> but you probably know what i got when i typed that
[03:32] <TimothyP> shockwave1, I'll be right back need to run down to check the printer
[03:32] <leeba> oh..ok so you are saying i am able to go put in the command and get the gui installed?
[03:32] <babo> Its an intel HDA board with a conexant chip ...
[03:33] <HymnToLife> leeba, yes
[03:33] <HymnToLife> unless there's a proxy or something else you need to tweak
[03:33] <babo> the drivers seem to work fine and the alsa driver update seemed to go fine as well ....
[03:33] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP: sorry i forgot to name you so i put in sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop?
[03:34] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP:and it should work?
[03:34] <HymnToLife> leeba, sudo apt-get update before
[03:34] <HymnToLife> and yes, it should work
[03:34] <Vilhelms> I'm having a problem with my sound. None of it plays. I think last time I restarted to fix it but it keeps happening. I get this error when I try to use gst-launch0.10 on the command line to run a file: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8790/plain/
[03:34] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP:here goes.. TimothyP.. I am glad TAB love me... good to be loved!
[03:35] <Lord_Maynoth> anyone here know how to make gaim open webpages with firefox instead of terminal?
[03:35] <babo> so do you reckon that it's possible to get sound to work on ubuntu hp pavillion then ?
[03:35] <Lord_Maynoth> it started doing that after I updated to 2.0.2
[03:35] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP:ok..it says E: couldn't find package
[03:35] <Lord_Maynoth> 2.0.0.2
[03:35] <HymnToLife> leeba, did you run sudo apt-get update before ?
[03:36] <Lord_Maynoth> babo have you tried a newer kernel
[03:36] <Lord_Maynoth> ?
[03:36] <shockwave1> TimothyP: thanks. i did the wget, now what?
[03:36] <Lord_Maynoth> a budy of mine recompiled ubuntu with the newest kernel, gaim, and openoffice..
[03:36] <Lord_Maynoth> ill see if i can find an iso
[03:36] <HymnToLife> Lord_Maynoth, did you configure it as default in /Etc/alternatives ?
[03:37] <Lord_Maynoth> is their a config file?
[03:37] <TimothyP> after wget you need to tar -zxvf nameoffdownloadedfile
[03:37] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP: E: couldnt find package ubuntu-desktop
[03:37] <Jowi> Vilhelms, gst-launch is not a music player
[03:37] <HymnToLife> leeba, could you pastebin your sources.list ?
[03:37] <Lord_Maynoth> im in /etc/alternatives with sudo gedit... what am I looking for?
[03:37] <Vilhelms> Vilhelms, I'm using songbird. Songbird uses gstreamer and thats why I tested it with that
[03:37] <Lord_Maynoth> thanks again hymntolife
[03:38] <Vilhelms> Jowi, I'm using songbird. Songbird uses gstreamer and thats why I tested it with that
[03:38] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP:what is that
[03:38] <HymnToLife> Lord_Maynoth, ls -l /etc/akternatives/x-www-browser
[03:38] <leeba> a source list..sure but where can i find it
[03:38] <HymnToLife> what do you get ?
[03:38] <leeba> ok
[03:38] <HymnToLife> leeba, in /etc/apt :)
[03:38] <Vilhelms> Jowi, If I use mpg321 I get the following error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8793/plain/
[03:39] <shockwave1> timothyP: do i have to change to the directory first? when i tried it said that no such file or directory
[03:39] <TimothyP> shockwave1, tar zxvf install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
[03:39] <Lord_Maynoth> weird
[03:39] <Lord_Maynoth> I see it
[03:39] <TimothyP> shockwave1, hang on
[03:39] <what_if> what program do I use to manage services in ubuntu ?
[03:39] <Lord_Maynoth> but it says could not find file
[03:39] <TimothyP> I'll do it differently :)
[03:39] <Jowi> Vilhelms, best bet is to disable esd and use alsa only to resolv it.
[03:39] <HymnToLife> Lord_Maynoth, alternatives* sorry
[03:39] <Vilhelms> Jowi, How do I disable esd?
[03:39] <shockwave1> oh ok i did it. i tried sudo the other time
[03:39] <WannabeNewbie> Can someone help me with a minor viewing issue? Whenever I scroll the mouse wheel, pull up or down on the side bar or move a window across my screen, it isn't smooth it gets jumpy and really annoying. Any ideas how to fix this issue? I am not running beryl and Gnome is my only WM
[03:39] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP:i dont see any.. i got the folloing... after typing in sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop i got Reading package lists...Done
[03:39] <Jowi> !esd
[03:39] <ubotu> esd is the enlightened sound deamon. It's deprecated, use !alsa instead
[03:40] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP:Building dependency tree
[03:40] <Jowi> !alsa
[03:40] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[03:40] <HymnToLife> leeba, did you run sudo apt-get update before ?

[03:41] <leeba> connection refused
[03:41] <HymnToLife> leeba, is there a proxy or something on your network ?
[03:41] <WannabeNewbie> I thought I was using the Nvidia drivers but cannot seem to find where they have been installed at? I downloaded and installed but still not progress
[03:41] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP:i still think i have not got the info in for the ip address.. how hard can it be?

[03:42] <Lord_Maynoth> hymntolife  I found the file with sudo gedit... by selecting it but it says its not there

[03:42] <leeba> i have all the info here but dont know how to put it in using command line
[03:42] <leeba> ok
[03:42] <HymnToLife> Lord_Maynoth, forget gedit

[03:42] <WannabeNewbie> what_if: How would I find out for sure what the computer is running off of, the drivers or the VGA?
[03:42] <HymnToLife> why did you open it anyway ?
[03:42] <Lord_Maynoth> what should i use
[03:42] <Lord_Maynoth> instead of gedit
[03:42] <TimothyP> shockwave1, please read the bottom most post in this thread, those are the commands you need to run http://www.blicbox.be/uieforum?c=showthread&ThreadID=27&page=1#lastpost

[03:50] <kelsin> AdvoWork: You have a couple of options. You can share files and mount them on each machine with NFS (Unix way) or Samba (Windows way) or you can SSH in to the box and copy files that way with sftp. You can ever set up syncing with rsync or other backup type of software. What type of use did you have in mind?
[03:50] <WannabeNewbie> what_if: I'll be honest with you, I am new to linux and still trying to figure this stuff out.  I am running startx which brings me to my gnome gui, if that's what your asking
[03:51] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: yes, then there should be that file ...
[03:51] <kelsin> WannabeNewbie: did you type it in wrong? /var/log/Xorg.0.log you left out the first period when you just responded that it wasn't there
[03:51] <KeeNaF86> how to set vlc as default player for streaming?
[03:51] <Rogge> hello, I can't boot ubuntu from the install cd, can somebody help me?
[03:52] <WannabeNewbie> kelsin: Yes, I typed it in exactly as you have it, I must have typoed when I replies
[03:52] <WannabeNewbie> replied
[03:52] <CroX> What GUI-app(s) can you recommend for MySQL management?
[03:52] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: just go to that directory and click on the file
[03:52] <kelsin> KeeNaF86: I'm not positive at all, so this is as far as I can help, but have you installed the mozilla-plugin-vlc package?
[03:52] <what_if> WannabeNewbie:  /var/log
[03:52] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP:lets clarify one thing.. our county uses proxys but i have my own server for my installation of drupal. they gaveme my own ip address... also i have a subnet mask, a gateway or router, and DNS servers.. i am not sure they have me going through the proxy.
[03:53] <kelsin> CroX: mysql-admin or phpmyadmin running locally
[03:53] <chorse> CroX: web-based phpmyadmin or mysqlcc
[03:53] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP: and i know my host name..
[03:53] <babo> what's the latest kernel ?
[03:53] <babo> I have 2.6.17-11-generic
[03:53] <WannabeNewbie> When I run a search from the File System directory I typed in /var/log/Xorg.0.log and it says no files found
[03:53] <CroX> Thanks
[03:53] <babo> Is it worth it upgrading ?
[03:54] <h3xagram> hello, does anyone have frozen bubble?
[03:54] <h3xagram> the new release?
[03:54] <h3xagram> 2.0 i believe?
[03:54] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP: now do yo ustill want me to use that same command? export http_proxy"host:port"
[03:54] <HymnToLife> babo, if it can make your hardware work, yes
[03:54] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: why are you searching, just go there
[03:54] <kelsin> WannabeNewbie: are you searching as root, stop searching, goto a terminal and type "sudo less /var/log/Xorg.0.log"
[03:54] <HymnToLife> leeba, what are the proxy infos ?
[03:54] <babo> HymnToLife, yes but am I on the latest kernel already ?
[03:54] <CroX> mysqlcc looks nice
[03:54] <HymnToLife> no
[03:55] <WannabeNewbie> Ok, sorry I am there now in terminal
[03:55] <HymnToLife> you're on 2.6.17, the latest is 2.6.20
[03:55] <h3xagram> anyone?
[03:55] <Robinsjostrom> are there still problems with amd dualcore processors and am2 sockets with ubuntu?
[03:55] <WannabeNewbie> kelsin: It says I am running a Generic Video Card
[03:55] <kelsin> h3xagram: it's not in the ubuntu respositories if that's what you're asking, you'll have to compile it yourself
[03:55] <leeba> wiHymnToLife and TimothyP:well with my other ip address they gave me , i use 10.21.0.21 and port 8080
[03:56] <h3xagram> ive been trying to do it and it wont take
[03:56] <erUSUL> Robinsjostrom: there were any problems to begin with? i have one of those and works without problems
[03:56] <WannabeNewbie> what_if: Ok now what am I looking for?
[03:56] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: anything that says nvidia
[03:56] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: to see if the nvidia driver is loading
[03:56] <babo> HymnToLife, I don't suppose you know of a good kernel update guide ? I can't find any on google ...
[03:56] <Robinsjostrom> erUSUL: yea i tried it a couple of months ago and got some kernel error when loading up the livecd. Searched the forums and found that it was an know error or similar.
[03:57] <WannabeNewbie> what_if: Nothing shows Nvidia, it says device is Generic Video Card
[03:57] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP: so what do you think..
[03:57] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: then the driver is not loaded, I take it you rebooted after installing ??
[03:57] <WannabeNewbie> what_if: Oh yes
[03:58] <CapRiCoRN^80> any one there who has worked on rdiff-backup server ?
[03:58] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: in the terminal do "lsmod | grep nvidia"
[03:58] <HymnToLife> babo, http://wiki.debian.org/KernelCompilation?highlight=%28kernel%29
[03:58] <babo> k thanks
[03:59] <kelsin> WannabeNewbie: also do a "cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep nvidia" to make sure it's trying to load the right driver
[03:59] <TeePOG> can someone please explain to me why all the ubuntu networking config files and documentation refer to a command called "iface" when it's not available on my system?
[03:59] <elkbuntu> darc0113, please turn off away messages. they're not welcome here
[03:59] <paradroid> Hello everyone. Would someone using Firefox 2.* please do me the favour of visiting the advanced search page of Flickr and tell me if it displays correctly (or even at all)?
[03:59] <what_if> kelsin: yes indeed :)
[03:59] <babo> HymnToLife: will I have to reinstall the nvidia drivers then ?
[03:59] <kelsin> TeePOG: can you link to the documentation that does that?
[04:00] <paradroid> The URL would be: http://www.flickr.com/search/advanced/
[04:00] <TeePOG> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/ubuntu-networking-configuration-using-command-line.html
[04:00] <CapRiCoRN^80> any one there who has worked on rdiff-backup server ?
[04:00] <WannabeNewbie> the last command you gave me says no such file or directory
[04:00] <TeePOG> and others too
[04:00] <TeePOG> kelsin: my edgy files /etc/network/interfaces also have that exact command in
[04:01] <kelsin> /etc/network/interfaces is not a script file, iface is not a command, it's syntax for that file
[04:01] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: then just type lsmod
[04:01] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: and look for the nvidia line
[04:01] <Roconda> Hey, how can I use teamspeak and turn on music at the same time!?
[04:02] <kelsin> WannabeNewbie: try this then: "sudo grep nvidia /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[04:02] <what_if> paradroid: I get a blank page on flikr
[04:02] <paradroid> what_if: Suprise. Me too.
[04:02] <kelsin> Roconda: are you using teamspeak in wine?
[04:02] <paradroid> what_if: WTF? Any ideas?
[04:02] <AL89> hey guys... which programm is able to play .flv videos?
[04:02] <what_if> paradroid: have you tried other browsers ?
[04:02] <paradroid> AL89: mplayer e. g.
[04:03] <osman> AL89 : vlc
[04:03] <paradroid> what_if: Nope. I have no others installed here.
[04:03] <TeePOG> ok, but that doesn't help me kelsin. i'm grabbing at straws here, i'm getting "SIOCSIFADDR: No such device" when attempting to run "dhclient eth0" or "ifup eth0"
[04:03] <Roconda> kelsin: nope
[04:03] <AL89> vlc doesnt
[04:03] <what_if> paradroid: the response in blank, its their server
[04:03] <paradroid> AL89: I use mplayer here to play Flash Videos grabbed from YouTube e. g.
[04:03] <kelsin> TeePOG: is the proper driver for you're ethernet card loaded?
[04:03] <what_if> paradroid: or webmaster ;)
[04:03] <paradroid> what_if: Thank you.
[04:03] <what_if> paradroid: yw
[04:03] <AL89> okay, I'll try mplayer
[04:04] <WannabeNewbie> Ok under lsmod there is not an Nvidia anything except for my ether driver. under the sudo command that was just given to me I just get kicked back to my command line after being asked for password
[04:04] <AL89> normally i use vlc for everything
[04:04] <TeePOG> kelsin: it is, and it shows in a modprobe ... it was cloned from an identical machine, on which it does work
[04:04] <paradroid> AL89: You can also convert them into something more "common" using ffmpeg
[04:04] <TeePOG> s/modprobe/lsmod
[04:04] <what_if> ok, the nvidia driver is not loading, now we need to know why
[04:04] <PresleyLe> Hi. I need some help about setting my pppoe connection under ubuntu? Can someone help me?
[04:04] <paradroid> PresleyLe: I can give it a try.
[04:04] <kelsin> TeePOG: are you running those commands with "sudo" in front to be root?
[04:04] <KeeNaF86> yes .. I had install  mozilla-plugin-vlc package ...
[04:04] <TeePOG> yes kelsin, i am
[04:05] <Rebecca> hey. i seem to have locked up my usb system.. lsusb freezes and kill -9 won't even remove it.. anyone know how to fix without rebooting?
[04:05] <WannabeNewbie> what_if: What about trying to reinstall through apt-get or something?
[04:05] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: do the "cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep nvidia"
[04:05] <kelsin> TeePOG: and do you get errors when running "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" or just "start"?
[04:05] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: is that how you installed it last time ?
[04:05] <AdvoWork> kelsin the thing is, i dont even know what the server is called, it was setup for us, and not explained :s is there a way I can find that bit out first?
[04:05] <WannabeNewbie> no I just downloaded from nvidia and installed that way
[04:05] <kelsin> AdvoWork: you can find the hostname by typing "hostname" at the terminal
[04:05] <babo> HymnToLife, would the new kernels really have Intel soundcard support ?
[04:05] <Roconda> Hey, how can I use teamspeak and turn on music at the same time!?
[04:06] <WannabeNewbie> The grep command you just gave me also goes straight back to a command line
[04:06] <paradroid> PresleyLe: Go ahead. What is your problem wit pppoe?
[04:06] <AdvoWork> kelsin will that work if im on the client though, asin will typing that in terminal on the client, give me the server details?
[04:06] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: then you should not apt-get, it can cause major problems
[04:06] <PresleyLe> So the problem is that with pppoeconf I can't choose my SERVICENAME
[04:06] <kelsin> WannabeNewbie: "sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" then find the Driver line that probably currently says "nv" and make sure to change it to "nvidia"
[04:06] <WannabeNewbie> what_if: what about completely removing it?
[04:06] <TeePOG> yes kelsin, i get errors like the one i pasted just now
[04:06] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: ok, then you need to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and add the word "nvidia"
[04:06] <kelsin> AdvoWork: wait, you'r on the client, without access to the server and have NO idea about the server's hostname or ip address?
[04:07] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: you can try that
[04:07] <AdvoWork> AdvoWork basically yea.. because as i say, it was setup for us, then the installer bloke ran out of time
[04:07] <AdvoWork> so im trying to do stuff, with limited knowledge
[04:07] <kelsin> TeePOG: pasted where?
[04:07] <PresleyLe> paranoid ...So the problem is that with pppoeconf I can't choose my SERVICENAME
[04:08] <TeePOG> kelsin: in chan just now ... SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
[04:08] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: in xrg.conf there will be a line that looks like [  "Driver"    "VGA"   ] 
[04:08] <kelsin> AdvoWork: well, if you don't have pyshical access to the box, and don't know it's IP address you can't really do anything
[04:08] <AdvoWork> kelsin the main of it is im trying to get to the postgresql setup on the Server, from my client
[04:08] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: change  "VGA"  to "nvidia"
[04:08] <kelsin> TeePOG: oh ok, and that's the only error? What type of card is it and what driver are you using?
[04:08] <kelsin> TeePOG: can you pastebin the result from "sudo lspci" as well?
[04:08] <paradroid> PresleyLe: Can you elaborate on that please?
[04:08] <AdvoWork> kelsin, well the box is here... the client is plugged into it, then server - rotuer, but i dont know any details about the server really, its got no keyboard/mouse/screen :s
[04:09] <WannabeNewbie> what_if: I see under video a "vesa" driver
[04:09] <TeePOG> kelsin: it's an onboard Intel pro card ... kernel driver e100
[04:09] <kelsin> AdvoWork: the server is your router?
[04:09] <what_if> ok, change vesa to nvidia
[04:09] <kelsin> TeePOG: when you say you cloned the driver from another machine, what do you mean? You ghosted the whole hard drive, or just copied the driver, or what?
[04:09] <AdvoWork> kelsin no, i mean client -> server  then server -> router  its a test setup if you get me
[04:10] <AdvoWork> i just want to be able to ssh into the server or similar, but dont know the address or anything :/
[04:10] <TeePOG> kelsin: i ghosted the whole hard drive using g4u
[04:10] <kelsin> AdvoWork: can you log into your router to then get the ip address that it's giving the server?
[04:10] <WannabeNewbie> what_if: Ok I have changed it but have not closed the screen. What should I do once I take out vesa and replace it with nvidia
[04:10] <kelsin> TeePOG: and the ethernet card is the same?
[04:10] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: save the file then shutdown and restart X
[04:11] <kelsin> TeePOG: does it show up at all in "sudo ifconfig"?
[04:11] <WannabeNewbie> ok, if for some reason this doesn't work, how will I get back to a place where I can fix this?
[04:11] <TeePOG> yes kelsin, it's identical
[04:11] <paradroid> what_if: I'm not sure if manually moving from vesa to nvidia is such a good idea.
[04:11] <AdvoWork> kelsin, actually.. i think I can tell what it is, but is there a way I can just check it?
[04:11] <what_if> paradroid: why not, he manually installed the driver ...
[04:11] <Lord_Maynoth> I can't find it anywhere...
[04:11] <paradroid> what_if: Oh. Ok. Might work, then. ;)
[04:11] <kelsin> AdvoWork: to connect with ssh: "ssh <username>@<ip.address.of.server>" obviously without the <>'s
[04:12] <CapRiCoRN^80> any one there who has worked on rdiff-backup server ?
[04:12] <Lord_Maynoth> does anyone know where to download an ubuntu iso with the 2.6.20.1 kernel preinstalled
[04:12] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: and if it does not work, then change that line back to get the GUI working again
[04:12] <Lord_Maynoth> ?
[04:12] <paradroid> WannabeNewbie: Maybe you could make a backup of the config file first to move it back if it doesn't work out.
[04:12] <PresleyLe> paradroid to connect to my internet provider I must use PPPoE and select a servicename
[04:12] <PresleyLe> paradroid I used pppoe to connect my network, but I can't select my servicename from there
[04:12] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: and all this can be fixed from the console...
[04:12] <paradroid> PresleyLe: OK. I might be a little slow right now, but what exactly is that servicename thing? ;)
[04:12] <kelsin> Lord_Maynoth: the current version of ubuntu use 2.17, unless you want to use the new beta of ubuntu Feisty
[04:12] <WannabeNewbie> WooWoo, I'm am prone to having accidents happen to me!! LOL! would it just be better to remove all nvidia info and try to re-install another way?
[04:13] <AdvoWork> kelsin that worked.. im now at the server pc
[04:13] <Lord_Maynoth> my buddy had an iso with 2.6.19
[04:13] <Lord_Maynoth> but I don't know where he got it
[04:13] <Lord_Maynoth> :c
[04:13] <kelsin> AdvoWork: then there you go, you can type hostname to get it's hostname, and then continue to do whatever you want with it
[04:13] <samuel> sup all
[04:13] <Lord_Maynoth> it had the latest gnome and open office
[04:13] <Lord_Maynoth> but it was edgy
[04:13] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: you can do that, the nvidia installer has an uninstall option. Then install the ubuntu nvidia driver
[04:13] <KeeNaF86> how could I do if i want to watch hd video on linux?
[04:13] <paradroid> PresleyLe: Going through the pppoeconf process you need to input your user name and password. What is the servicename? Sorry if I sound stupid. ;)
[04:13] <AdvoWork> kelsin cheers :)   is it possible for me to find out where php is installed, and then where postgresql is installed to?
[04:13] <TeePOG> kelsin: it shows up when I do ifconfig -a
[04:14] <nikin> i ame searching a way to limit a computers maximum network bandwidth, any tips... i need a serious limit of 512 kbit/sec wich cannot be bypassed
[04:14] <Lord_Maynoth> are there any patches ubuntu makes to the kernel I should know about
[04:14] <Lord_Maynoth> if i recompile with this guide
[04:14] <Lord_Maynoth> http://www.howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_ubuntu
[04:14] <WannabeNewbie> what_if: what would be the best way to go about reinstalling a fresh version of Nvidia driver? as in which method, synaptic or apt-get or do you know of another way
[04:14] <PresleyLe> paradroid: servicename is the only way I can select my internet provider
[04:14] <GutterPunk> nikin, check out www.lartc.org
[04:14] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: synaptic is easiest
[04:15] <nikin> oh and if its possible i need to limit the down and upoad speed at a diferent rate like 512/20kbit
[04:15] <samuel> anyone heard of this: ive the latest feisty fawn i386 install on an smp machine, all is perfect except for the "Quit..." menu action and button in gnome, it seems to freeze the session, to shutdown properly ive got to ctr-alt-backspace and from gdm shutdown... of note is that its an upgrade install from edgy... anybody know this problem?
[04:15] <PresleyLe> paradroid: On Windows I have to choose while I set my connection
[04:15] <kelsin> TeePOG: ok, can you pastebin the full result of "sudo ifconfig -a" and what happens when you "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" and "sudo cat /etc/network/interfaces"
[04:15] <WannabeNewbie> ok thanks, after removing all and getting synaptic to download whatever nvidia drivers it has, then I need to restart and I suppose let you know how it works out?
[04:15] <samuel> what bug could it be?
[04:15] <nikin> GutterPunk: ty will look
[04:15] <GutterPunk> nikin, well most of the howto is actually specific to limiting upload bandwidth
[04:15] <WannabeNewbie> is there a quick way to remove all nvidia files without having to go through one by one?
[04:15] <kelsin> Lord_Maynoth: since that guide is made for ubuntu, probably not, any reason you need the 6.20 kernel?
[04:15] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: yes, the install program has an uninstall option
[04:15] <kelsin> WannabeNewbie: since you didn't install the deb package, no
[04:16] <kelsin> WannabeNewbie: oh, nevermind, list to what_if
[04:16] <ProN00b> whats that command again i can use instead of make install to make a package instead ?
[04:16] <Lord_Maynoth> drivers
[04:16] <WannabeNewbie> kelsin: ok thanks
[04:16] <kelsin> ProN00b: checkinstall
[04:16] <RevFirst> yes!
[04:16] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: I am downloading it now to see what the command is
[04:16] <KeeNaF86> how could I do if i want to watch hd video on linux?
[04:16] <ProN00b> kelsin, thanks
[04:16] <cypherdelic> how to remove the historie of bash inputs?
[04:16] <WannabeNewbie> thanks you guys, I'll be back and let you know how it worked out
[04:16] <RevFirst> Who wants to rape the kitten!?
[04:16] <GutterPunk> nikin, there's also some information regarding an ingress scheduler though. I need to warn you it is quite technical and fairly undocumented. But it works well once you get the hang of it
[04:16] <WannabeNewbie> what_if: ok, i'll wait for you then
[04:16] <RevFirst> :/
[04:17] <RevFirst> :\
[04:17] <paradroid> Anyone else have any clues on the Servicename issue concerning pppoe?
[04:18] <erUSUL> cypherdelic: echo ' ' > ~/.bash_history ??
[04:18] <Also> Moi!
[04:18] <nikin> GutterPunk : i wil see... its not realy time related stuff.. i just want to help some people living around e.. with opening a public WLAN ap and giving them some bandwidth to read e-mails and so
[04:19] <Also> osaisko joku sanoo miten ndiswrapper toimii kun pits asentaa windowssin wlan ajurit?
[04:19] <cypherdelic> erUSUL, oh im sorry, i mean, how to make it stop logging
[04:19] <ProN00b> paradroid, what servicename issue ?
[04:19] <WannabeNewbie> under synaptic package manager there are many nvidia files, how do I know which to grab?
[04:19] <nikin> !nvidia
[04:19] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:19] <ProN00b> WannabeNewbie, intuition
[04:20] <kelsin> WannabeNewbie: nvidia-glx is the main metapackage that will grab the right stuff
[04:20] <cypherdelic> erUSUL, i still can watch history after that cmd
[04:20] <Also> Would anyone tell me how to use ndiswrapper becouse i have to install linksys wlan drivers
[04:20] <paradroid> ProN00b: There was a user here that wanted to know how to set a "servicename" when setting up a ppp connection. I have no idea what he meant. He left by now.
[04:20] <nikin> in the nvidia tuto there is a table of VGA cards and wich file to installl
[04:20] <AdvoWork> is there a way I can see if postgresql has been installed/working properly on my server?
[04:20] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: get"nvidia-glx" and the rest are auto-selected
[04:20] <kelsin> TeePOG: did you pastebin that stuff? If so give me the url to check it out
[04:20] <varkatope> WannabeNewbie: nvidia-glx for a state of the art card, nvidia-glx-legacy for an old one
[04:20] <Dna^> hello
[04:20] <cypherdelic> erUSUL, no it worked, sry, but how to make it stop logging
[04:20] <WannabeNewbie> Ok thanks guys, I'll be back after restart
[04:20] <what_if> WannabeNewbie: and the NV installer no longer has an uninstaller, but now has an updater :(
[04:20] <mgallagh> #samba
[04:20] <mgallagh> oops
[04:20] <Also> Would anyone tell me how to use ndiswrapper becouse i have to install linksys wlan drivers
[04:21] <kalorin> !nvidia
[04:21] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:21] <nikin> what-if: selecting nvidia-glx will not couse problems with Riva cards?
[04:21] <kelsin> Also: http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/Ubuntu that has some examples of using ndiswrapper
[04:21] <what_if> nikin: riva ?

[04:23] <samuel> anyone heard of this: ive the latest feisty fawn i386 install on an smp machine, all is perfect except for the "Quit..." menu action and button in gnome, it seems to freeze the session, to shutdown properly ive got to ctr-alt-backspace and from gdm shutdown... of note is that its an upgrade install from edgy... anybody know this problem? should i report this as a new bug or is it too soon for feisty yet?

[04:25] <ikonia> htmljunkie I have done in the past, sorry I missed your initial comment
[04:25] <ubotu> htmljunkie: 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?
[04:26] <kelsin> Dna^: do you not have the window tab list at the bottom of the screen?
[04:26] <ikonia> Dna^ you should still have a task bar at the bottom of the screen - like windows task bar
[04:26] <htmljunkie> ikonia seems like the webdiner is a dead channel, I have to abandon it
[04:26] <ikonia> htmljunkie oh dear, why not give it time to grow
[04:26] <MarkCh> TooR4u: edit mode? you using vi? what are you trying to do?
[04:26] <TooR4u> alt+...

[04:27] <paradroid> kelsin: ;)
[04:27] <zen> hello what's the command to install java 6 from the shell on kubuntu?
[04:27] <ikonia> zen apt-get install
[04:27] <ikonia> TooR4u EXACTLY what do you want to do
[04:27] <htmljunkie> so can you tell me how to setup pine to use my yahoo
[04:27] <Also> kelsin, where is terminal? i have finnish ubuntu and there is no terminal :/
[04:27] <zen> thanx
[04:27] <kelsin> Also: should be under the Accessories menu
[04:27] <ikonia> htmljunkie you need to use fetchmail to get your mail from yahoo then use pine to read it locally
[04:27] <nihaaahoo> :D
[04:27] <nihaaahoo> he he aynen ole
[04:28] <Also> kelsin, ok
[04:28] <htmljunkie> fetchmail?
[04:28] <ikonia> htmljunkie pine can't access yahoo mail on the yahoo servers,
[04:28] <Also> i try

[04:28] <nihaaahoo> :D
[04:28] <ikonia> htmljunkie yup fetch mail
[04:28] <htmljunkie> how do I do it
[04:28] <cypherdelic> erUSUL, no it was 'export HISTSIZE=0'
[04:28] <ikonia> htmljunkie install fetchmail and read the wiki on how to get mail from sites
[04:28] <babo> my microphone isn't working ...
[04:28] <htmljunkie> k
[04:28] <ikonia> htmljunkie then use pine to read that mail
[04:28] <paradroid> zen: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-bin
[04:28] <htmljunkie> k
[04:28] <kelsin> htmljunkie: you google fetchmail to learn about it, install it with "sudo aptitude install fetchmail" then read the man page ("man fetchmail") to learn more how to use it
[04:28] <osman> nihaaaho : english please
[04:28] <nihaaahoo> tamam osman

[04:30] <Also> sudo: ndiswrapper: command not found
[04:30] <Also> "
[04:30] <htmljunkie> plus people in linux channels are more friendly
[04:30] <ikonia> grhimped thats not the console - thats an application running in the console
[04:30] <paradroid> htmljunkie: ;)
[04:30] <kelsin> Also: did you install ndiswrapper with synaptic?
[04:30] <tritium> htmljunkie: yes, but please stay on topiuc
[04:30] <grhimped> ikonia: but its in FB
[04:30] <htmljunkie> k

[04:30] <nihaaahoo> bye bye love
[04:30] <htmljunkie> well pine is still a topic since it's used in linux also :)
[04:30] <ikonia> grhimped yes, it is in frame buffer
[04:30] <nihaaahoo> bye bye hepinis
[04:30] <grhimped> ikonia: yes, its an application, however, sound is a layer, not an app.. i asked how to enable it

[04:31] <nihaaahoo> turk yok mu lem
[04:31] <nihaaahoo> :D
[04:31] <kelsin> htmljunkie: yes but your question has nothing to do with ubuntu support, esp since you're not running pine on ubuntu
[04:31] <kelsin> Also: isntead of installing via synaptic?
[04:31] <ccs4> I hope someone can help me... I can not get Ubuntu to install from the CD I downloaded.  I know the Cd is good as I have used it on other machines.

Please help I really want to get this working.

[04:33] <tritium> nihaaahoo: this is an English channel.  If you prefer another language, please find the appropriate channel.
[04:33] <ikonia> nihaaahoo you seem to be able to speak english when you want
[04:33] <kelsin> ccs4: the best bet is either try with "apci=off" or try the alternate cd with the text based installer, you can look for help with both options by hitting F3 and F4 and stuff on the boot menu
[04:33] <nihaaahoo> ok ok
[04:34] <nihaaahoo> dont worry be happy

[04:34] <ccs4> kesin THANKS! I will try and let you know how it works :)
[04:35] <tritium> ikonia: if it persists, yes
[04:35] <WannabeNewbie> kelsin: thanks for the help, system is running like new
[04:35] <kelsin> ccs4: ok just to make sure, acpi=off is a boot option for the normal cd that might let it finish, if that doesn't work then get the other cd
[04:35] <kelsin> WannabeNewbie: np
[04:35] <elkbuntu> nihaaahoo, what language were you speaking? we will help you find a channel in that language
[04:35] <ikonia> tritium ta
[04:35] <matt_> Hi all
[04:35] <ccs4> k
[04:35] <nihaaahoo> elkbuntu look your job baby.
[04:35] <KeeNaF86> kelsin: how to play hd video on linux? do u know?
[04:36] <swoke> I got "Segmentation fault" when launching beryl or glxinfo (but sudo glxinfo works)
[04:36] <nihaaahoo> if dont i will kiss you
[04:36] <nihaaahoo> :D
[04:36] <elkbuntu> nihaaahoo, please dont be rude like that
[04:36] <kelsin> KeeNaF86: How is it not working for you?
[04:36] <tritium> nihaaahoo: you were adequately warned
[04:36] <matt_> Apache2 + PHP5 : I'm struggling to get any dynamic extensions loaded (*.so). I'm not getting any error messages, but they aren't appearing in my phpinfo(). Where should I start looking?
[04:37] <kelsin> matt_: make sure you have the .so files in the right place, and listed the proper way in your httpd.conf
[04:37] <KeeNaF86> kelsin: I tried apple com/trailers and my browser closed in sudden when to play movie (HD)
[04:38] <kelsin> KeeNaF86: my browser opens the HD trailer in Totem, playing HD movies should be no different then playing any other movie file
[04:39] <matt_> Kelsin: I have them in /usr/lib/apache2/modules, and they are in my "/etc/php5/apache2/php.ini" as "extension=pdo.so" etc. If i compile PHP5 without "--enable-shared" and add the modules in statically, they (sorta) work. Anything compiled as shared doesn't :S
[04:39] <kelsin> KeeNaF86: I would suggest making sure you have all of the gstreamer-plugin-* packages
[04:39] <Airwulf> hey to you all
[04:39] <Also> where i can install synaptic to get ndiswrapper?
[04:39] <elkbuntu> !tr | nihaaahoo
[04:39] <ubotu> nihaaahoo: Turk ubuntu kullanicilari, turkce yardim yada geyik icin #ubuntu-tr hizmetinizde.
[04:39] <KeeNaF86> kelsin: so I just need sudo apt-get install gstreamer-plugin-*
[04:39] <KeeNaF86> am I correct?
[04:39] <Airwulf> how can I change the permissions of automounted usb harddiscs?
[04:39] <kelsin> matt_: I would try to find some php logs, or apache logs to see if there are any errors
[04:40] <Also> where i can install synaptic to get ndiswrapper?
[04:40] <kelsin> KeeNaF86: no, search in synaptic for all packages with gstreamer-plugin in the name, and install them
[04:40] <htmljunkie> fetchmail seems hard to use, I can't even setup my username lol
[04:40] <KeeNaF86> kelsin: k .. i try
[04:40] <kelsin> Also: synaptic is always install with a desktop system, it's under teh Administration menu
[04:40] <kelsin> htmljunkie: any reason you want to use pine?
[04:40] <htmljunkie> hey is Ubuntu ever going to be distributed on pcs in like bestbuy?
[04:40] <htmljunkie> eh just trying to learn unix commands
[04:40] <htmljunkie> and the apps
[04:40] <ikonia> htmljunkie no fetchmail - you're screwed
[04:41] <ikonia> htmljunkie what does it matter if it gets distributed or not - its available now
[04:41] <Also> kelsin, thx again ^
[04:41] <MarkCh> htmljunkie: the future is unpredictable and could not be known accurately, but system76 already sells pcs with ubuntu though.
[04:41] <kelsin> htmljunkie: It's up to public demand, people will start selling linux pc's if more customer's want it. Dell finally started shipping blank computers without windows, so we're a bit of the way there
[04:41] <htmljunkie> Ubuntu has teh best chance to be the face of linux world wide
[04:41] <ikonia> htmljunkie not really thats just personal opinion
[04:41] <htmljunkie> I know
[04:42] <htmljunkie> I'm stayin on topic
[04:42] <htmljunkie> lol
[04:42] <ikonia> this is a support channel, you want #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:42] <matt_> Kelsin - thanks. There is nothing in the /var/log/apache2/error.log, and PHP doesn't seem to log anywhere that I can tell
[04:42] <ikonia> matt_ whats the problem
[04:42] <htmljunkie> it'll take me time to learn fetchmail
[04:42] <htmljunkie> but once I do
[04:42] <htmljunkie> it'll be cool
[04:42] <ikonia> fetchmail is easy
[04:42] <ikonia> shouldn't be too hard
[04:43] <htmljunkie> I'm not really used to linux commands or cli
[04:43] <htmljunkie> so thats why its hard for me
[04:43] <ikonia> htmljunkie thats just experience
[04:43] <ikonia> overrider another good option
[04:43] <MarkCh> htmljunkie: then be used to it. this is 2007, guis are so 1990s.
[04:43] <ikonia> overrider horses for courses
[04:43] <matt_> ikonia - i've recompile PHP5.2.1 with PDO support, set to be shared (--enable-shared --enable-pdo=shared --with-pdo-mysql=shared --with-pdo-informix=shared), but I cannot load the *.so modules. I don't get any errors or anything, they just don't show in PHPInfo() via the browser
[04:43] <htmljunkie> haha I love 1990s!
[04:43] <MarkCh> /p #support-ph
[04:44] <ikonia> matt_ what happens when you try to view php - and what happens if you try to start apache by hand
[04:44] <AdvoWork> is it possible for me to tell which port postgresql is running on?  i did netstat -na and its showing /var/run/postgresql/.s.PGSQL.5432 is listening on 12238 so is that what it is?
[04:44] <globe> does anyone run photoshop in wine?  I am curious if it performs well or not...I kind of expect some lag
[04:44] <ikonia> globe check out #wine-hq loads of wine gurus with expereience
[04:44] <kelsin> matt_: you've stumped me, my knowledge n custom settigng up php and apache is very limited, good luck
[04:44] <osman> globe : performs well
[04:44] <overrider> i doubt it will perform nicely
[04:45] <matt_> ikonia - when I view PHP, it works fine - just can't use the PDO functions, or any other shared modules. Starting Apache manually just works!
[04:45] <osman> globe : ps 7 i using
[04:45] <matt_> Kelsin - no probs, thanks for the help :)
[04:45] <htmljunkie> I run gimpshop
[04:45] <htmljunkie> its nice
[04:45] <Gjhw> globe: overrider: why would it not be good?
[04:45] <ikonia> matt_ there fore the modules are being loaded - so it must be a config error
[04:45] <ikonia> s/there fore/therefore
[04:45] <kelsin> AdvoWork: it's probably running on the default postgres port 5432
[04:45] <primerevolver> how can i setup a http installation source for ubuntu edgy. i can do that in redhat. how to do in ubuntu
[04:46] <ikonia> primerevolver not really
[04:46] <overrider> Gjhw, open a large psd and see :P
[04:46] <globe> thanks...im going to check in wine-hq
[04:46] <j00bar> howdy -- is there a release of libc6 for breezy that has the 2006p tzdata in it? or is that something i'm going to have to manually do?
[04:46] <tuskernini> wengo phone needs a restart (for sound) to call if i watch a youtube movie... what is it with linux sound?
[04:46] <primerevolver> ikonia, please help.
[04:46] <kelsin> primerevolver: you want to use the alternative install cd, that lets you install from the internet
[04:46] <AdvoWork> kelsin yea, it is :)
[04:46] <ikonia> j00bar tzdata is biundled seperate I think
[04:46] <kelsin> tuskernini: do you use Flash 9 or 7?
[04:46] <primerevolver> is there no way. no no i want to use my cd but via http
[04:46] <j00bar> ikonia: not in breezy it wasn't.
[04:46] <ikonia> primerevolver help with what?
[04:47] <ikonia> primerevolver not really possible
[04:47] <tuskernini> kelsin, i think the normal one... 7
[04:47] <j00bar> # dpkg -S /usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Eastern
[04:47] <j00bar> libc6: /usr/share/zoneinfo/US/Eastern
[04:47] <primerevolver> lol ikonia
[04:47] <tuskernini> how do i check?
[04:47] <matt_> ikonia - ok. Any thoughts on where to start looking for a fix? I'm doing this via libapache5.so by the way, as I don't want the CLI version of PHP to change version if possible. When i compile stuff statically, PDO, PDO_MySQL and PDO_SQLite show up, but PDO_Informix goes missing altogether! Hehe!
[04:47] <varkatope> htmljunkie: how did you install gimpshop?
[04:47] <primerevolver> man tell
[04:47] <Also> kelsin, now i got it to install the .inf but i dont understand this "
[04:47] <Also> load the module and make it reload on reboot:
[04:47] <Also> modprobe ndiswrapper
[04:47] <Also> echo ndiswrapper >> /etc/module"
[04:47] <ikonia> matt_ I'd hit #apache as you're not using the ubuntu packages, so its more generic apache skills than ubuntu/apache skills
[04:47] <SmileyG> hi guys, my laptop wont connect to my wireless network.... HELP!
[04:48] <htmljunkie> I'm on a mac varkatope so I downloaded the mac version
[04:48] <ikonia> matt_ not sure where to look for that
[04:48] <primerevolver> SmileyG, lol
[04:48] <matt_> ikonia - good idea, thanks for the help!
[04:48] <SmileyG> primerevolver: it worked last night at my girlfriends house
[04:48] <varkatope> htmljunkie: ...
[04:48] <tuskernini> kelsin, how do i check and what difference would it make?
[04:48] <SmileyG> and now im back here, it wont work again :(
[04:48] <primerevolver> SmileyG, use linux
[04:48] <tritium> htmljunkie: ubuntu questions please, not mac ;)
[04:48] <ikonia> primerevolver why is that funny ?
[04:48] <ikonia> matt_ no problem
[04:48] <Also> smileyG, i have been fighting whit that for whole weekend :D
[04:48] <primerevolver> ikonia, you sound funny
[04:48] <kelsin> tuskernini: Flash 9 uses alsa instead of OSS for sound, helps out alot of problems
[04:48] <kelsin> tuskernini: when watching any flash right click on it
[04:48] <varkatope> tritium: the question was ubuntu, but not the answer ^^
[04:49] <tritium> varkatope: okay, then
[04:49] <primerevolver> ok where i can get xen image for ubuntu edgy so that i can boot it through xen in redhat
[04:49] <tuskernini> Kelsin, so i might have to install flash9... where do i do that?
[04:49] <ikonia> primerevolveryou can make the image
[04:49] <ikonia> primerevolver you can make the image
[04:49] <SmileyG> Also: it has lots of stuff about "SoftMAC" in dmesg?
[04:49] <primerevolver> ikonia, xen doesn't recognize my edgy cd
[04:50] <ikonia> primerevolver don't make the image in xen, make it outside
[04:50] <primerevolver> ikonia, it says it require only nfs,httpd or ftp source
[04:50] <Also> smileyG, dont know...
[04:50] <shigutso> i've instaled VBox here in my Ubuntu to use as a virtual machine, and the internet works fine, but it gets a strange IP, and not a sequential of my router, like VMWare used to do... and, because of that, i can't open doors for this vitual machine... anybody knows what to do in that case??
[04:50] <kelsin> tuskernini: google flash 9 ubuntu, you'll find a lot of how tos
[04:50] <tuskernini> kelsin, looks like i have flash9 already...
[04:50] <primerevolver> ikonia, you mean to say i install edgy on a hard drive and create a image out of it for xen?
[04:50] <SmileyG> urgf
[04:50] <ikonia> primerevolver never mind
[04:50] <tuskernini> kelsin, so that might be te problem... flash wants to use alsa and wengophone also?
[04:50] <primerevolver> lol ikonia
[04:51] <kelsin> tuskernini: then that isn't the source of the problem I guess, past my expertise, plus I'm leaving soon, good luck
[04:51] <tuskernini> kelsin, ok thanks ciao
[04:51] <kelsin> tuskernini: no, alsa now allows multiple streams at once ussually, I was making sure you had 9 and not 7
[04:51] <Also> kelsin, now i got it to install the .inf but i dont understand this "
[04:51] <Also> load the module and make it reload on reboot:
[04:51] <Also> modprobe ndiswrapper
[04:51] <Also> echo ndiswrapper >> /etc/module" that is the next part of installing linksys wlan"
[04:51] <Lord_Maynoth> does anyone here know of a custom edgy iso with the 2.6.20.1 kernel already recompiled?
[04:51] <primerevolver> Lord_Maynoth, try fiesty
[04:51] <kelsin> Also: you type "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" then "sudo echo ndiswrapper >> /etc/module" on the terminal command line
[04:51] <eromero> hi fellos anyone knows if there's a way to tell the "auto USB mounter" where to mount the usbkey
[04:52] <kelsin> Lord_Maynoth: there isn't one, why do you need this?
[04:52] <eromero> so it doesnt use the USB key name
[04:52] <Lord_Maynoth> I've got a custom iso with the 2.6.19 kernel...  but I can't find the newest one.
[04:52] <overrider> fugly, my ubuntu boot up logo is a. black & white , and 2. the status bar is a little rippled. seems like a graphic issue. once x is started its fine. i am using ubuntu 64bit and ubuntu6.10 and have an nvidia graphics card. any ideas?
[04:52] <dtolj> Lord_Maynoth: big deal why do you need it?
[04:52] <kelsin> Lord_Maynoth: any reason why you want the newest kernel?
[04:52] <tritium> darc0113: please disable that
[04:53] <Lord_Maynoth> drivers and bugfixes
[04:53] <koper> overrider, my bootup logo is the same and I have an ATI card
[04:53] <dtolj> Lord_Maynoth: compile your own its not hard find a good tutorial on google
[04:53] <ikonia> Lord_Maynoth such ask
[04:53] <ikonia> as
[04:53] <Lord_Maynoth> ?
[04:53] <koper> overrider, oh and I'm also using the 64 bit version. boot up logo was brown with 32 bit.
[04:53] <blimpdude> hi. are the intel 950 graphic cards as easy to setup as the 810/855/etc chipsets?
[04:53] <ikonia> Lord_Maynoth which drivers and bug fixes do you need
[04:53] <kelsin> Lord_Maynoth: well it's definitately unsupported. Either install fiesty (beta) or look in the same place you found your 2.6.19 or compile it yourself, you're probably not going to find too many people in here that need a 2.6.20 kernel (for any normal reason)
[04:54] <overrider> koper, so, just live with it?
[04:54] <Also> kelsin, it says "also@also-laptop:~$ sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[04:54] <Also> also@also-laptop:~$ sudo echo ndiswrapper >> /etc/module
[04:54] <Also> bash: /etc/module: Permission denied
[04:54] <Also> "
[04:55] <koper> overrider, Yeah, it doesn't really bug me so I haven't bothered writing about it in the forums or anything.
[04:55] <tuskernini> is there a wengophone chat room?
[04:55] <ikonia> Lord_Maynoth which drivers and bug fixes do you need
[04:55] <Lord_Maynoth> all of them
[04:55] <Lord_Maynoth> lol
[04:55] <ikonia> which ones
[04:55] <erUSUL> Also: sudo sh -c "echo  echo ndiswrapper >> /etc/module
[04:55] <ikonia> you must have a reason
[04:55] <erUSUL> "
[04:55] <tritium> Also: please watch the repeating and pasting
[04:55] <kelsin> Lord_Maynoth: ok you clearly don't need them, I strongly recomend you just install ubuntu edgy, it's fine
[04:56] <Lord_Maynoth> my c2d craps out... on the default kernel... it will will run fine with feisty but I don't like using beta stuff
[04:56] <kelsin> Also: you can also just edit the /etc/modules file yourself and add "ndiswrapper" to the end of it: sudo gedit /etc/modules
[04:56] <ikonia> Lord_Maynoth define "craps out"
[04:56] <globe> is there a way to force an unmount from an nfs drive that is no longer available?
[04:56] <Lord_Maynoth> its unstable
[04:56] <ikonia> Lord_Maynoth define unstable
[04:56] <kelsin> Lord_Maynoth: I hate to dissapoint you but using a newer kernel with edgy is probably just as unstable as running fiesty,
[04:56] <ikonia> globe it should just time out
[04:57] <kelsin> Lord_Maynoth: if you're looking for stable just run dapper with the kernel that's packaged in it, or run edgy, or find a distribution that includes newer kernels
[04:57] <dtolj> what version of kernel does edgy use?
[04:57] <Lord_Maynoth> unstable meaning it freezes and I have to power cycle the machine
[04:57] <Lord_Maynoth> dapper is worse
[04:57] <globe> ikonia: how long is that gonig to take?  I can't access my home dir (subfolder is where nfs is mounted) atm....just busy cursor
[04:57] <Lord_Maynoth> can I compile a kernel and build my own iso?
[04:57] <babo> what's the smtp hostname of my server ? where can i find it ?
[04:58] <ikonia> globe normally around 15 minutes
[04:58] <ikonia> globe you could stop portmapper and nfsd
[04:58] <ikonia> Lord_Maynoth if you have to ask - no
[04:58] <dtolj> Lord_Maynoth: you just want the kernel, why do you need the iso
[04:58] <samuel> anyone know of this... "Quit..." in the panel hangs gnome-panel whenever xcompmgr is running?
[04:58] <globe> ikonia: (sigh) okay.  ooh thats a good idea.
[04:58] <ironfroggy> how can i check the installed version of a package?
[04:58] <samuel> always
[04:58] <ikonia> ironfroggy look at it in synaptic
[04:58] <Lord_Maynoth> please explain how to compile a kernel on a machine the freezes every minute or so
[04:58] <Lord_Maynoth> hheheeh
[04:59] <ikonia> Lord_Maynoth cross-compile
[04:59] <grhimped> Can anyone please tell me how to get sound working in the Framebuffer
[04:59] <tritium> !kernel > Lord_Maynoth
[04:59] <globe> ikonia: thanks, that worked ;-)
[04:59] <ikonia> globe no trouble
[04:59] <koper> Lord_Maynoth, does Ubuntu freeze almost right away and you have to turn off the computer and turn it on again?
[05:00] <maarten> am
[05:00] <ironfroggy> i need to see from the command line
[05:00] <Lord_Maynoth> no I can run it sometimes for 15-30 minutes
[05:00] <ikonia> koper its pointless asking he's made up his mind. I if it was c2d support issues it wouldn't boot
[05:00] <Lord_Maynoth> no freezes in xp
[05:00] <Lord_Maynoth> I have a friend with the same motherboard says he has same issues with the default edgy kernel I am trying to talk him into compiling a new iso for me..
[05:01] <Lord_Maynoth> (its like pulling teeth however)
[05:01] <koper> ikonia, well I had that problem but after updating BIOS everything worked just fine. May not be the solution to his problem though, I wouldn't know.
[05:01] <koper> Lord_Maynoth, what motherboard?
[05:01] <Also> kelsin, when i wrote "sudo gedit /etc/module" it just opened an empty page
[05:01] <ikonia> koper thats why I said its pointless, he's made up his mind already of the problem, and the fix is a new kernel
[05:01] <kditty>  how do i install a theme on gnome using the tar.gz file?
[05:01] <koper> ikonia, ah, I haven't followed the discussion.
[05:01] <ikonia> kditty drag it into the theme manager
[05:02] <ikonia> koper lucky devil
[05:02] <kditty> ikonia, when i do that it says format invalid...
[05:02] <kditty> is that just a bad file?
[05:02] <ikonia> kditty try unzipping it
[05:02] <ikonia> kditty see whats in it
[05:02] <dtolj> kditty: tar xzvf <theme file>
[05:04] <kditty> dtolj, png and xml files
[05:04] <Lord_Maynoth> its asus striker with nforce 680i
[05:04] <Also> kelsin, when i wrote "sudo gedit /etc/module" it just opened an empty page
[05:04] <ikonia> Also see if the file exists
[05:04] <dtolj> kditty: i think you need to place them in the appropriate themes folder
[05:04] <Also> ikonia, where it should be?
[05:04] <ikonia> dtolj if its in the correct format the theme manager should pick it up
[05:04] <ikonia> Also errrrrr /etc
[05:05] <ikonia> your trying to edit a file in /etc - if you want to see if it exists, look in "/etc"
[05:05] <Also> ikonia, what? cant understand
[05:05] <ikonia> Also are are trying to edit a file in /etc - before editing it, see if italready exists, therefore look in /etc

[05:06] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:06] <Brismetal> Hi guys, I'm having super slow transfer from fat32 IDE drives but it goes fine if I copy stuff to/from a fat32 thumb drive or a SATA NTFS drive.. any ideas on what I need to check?   (PS.  All drives work 100% fine in Windows)
[05:07] <foutrelis> :)
[05:07] <dtolj> kditty: i assume I never installed a theme try it
[05:07] <Brismetal> When I saw super slow I mean upto 30-40 minutes for a 700mb file
[05:07] <ikonia> Brismetal weak ide driver in ubuntu
[05:07] <Brismetal> ikonia: but surely it shouldn't be that slow?
[05:07] <ikonia> kditty if its a valid theme theme manager will pick it up, it not - its in the wrong format
[05:07] <Brismetal> it takes maybe 120 seconds to even read a directory
[05:07] <ikonia> Brismetal that is slow, but not impossible
[05:08] <KeeNaF> kelsin: it does not works ... all streaming video cannot be played
[05:08] <Brismetal> there's a theme manager in ubuntu??  I tried googleing for something but couldn't find anything ha ha
[05:08] <KeeNaF> what should i do?
[05:08] <Also> ikonia, im trying to get linksys wlan working... by this "nstall ndiswrapper from synaptic package manager.
[05:08] <Brismetal> ikonia:  so my only course of action is convert to NTFS and use that new NTFS3G driver thing?
[05:08] <Also> then download ftp://ftp.linksys.com/pub/network/wp...ility_v2.0.zip
[05:08] <Also> unzip the downloaded zipfile, find the correct .inf (lsbcmnds.inf in my case) file and run
[05:08] <Also> sudo ndiswrapper -i lsbcmnds.inf
[05:08] <Also> load the module and make it reload on reboot:
[05:08] <Also> modprobe ndiswrapper
[05:08] <Also> echo ndiswrapper >> /etc/modules
[05:08] <Also> in gnome, goto networking and put your settings.
[05:08] <Also> hope it helps." works
[05:08] <dtolj> kditty: ikonia might be right
[05:09] <kditty> ok, thansks guys... ill try some other themes
[05:10] <KeeNaF> guys ... i tried to view trailers in apple website but cant .. the browser will closed in sudden .. what should i do?
[05:10] <samuel> anyone know hot to troubleshoot this: gnome-panel always hangs when xcompmgr is running and you select "Quit..." from the menu, anyone any ideas please?
[05:10] <eromero> is there away to force the mount point of an usbkey that gets automounted?
[05:10] <ikonia> samuel you'll get better help in #ubuntu-effects
[05:10] <Also> ikonia, i have allready runned "sudo ndiswrapper -i lsbcmnds.inf"
[05:10] <deepsa> KeeNaF, use mozilla mplayer plugin with win32 plugins for mplayer
[05:11] <ikonia> Also why are you telling me this, I just told you to check to see if your modules file already exists
[05:11] <samuel> ikonia: thanks
[05:11] <Also> ikonia, but where in the hell is that etc?
[05:11] <ikonia> samuel no problem
[05:11] <KeeNaF> deepsa: ok .. I try

[05:11] <grhimped> Can anyone please tell me how to get sound working in the Framebuffer
[05:12] <ikonia> grhimped is it frame buffer thats the problem, or is it the application playing the file, I think its the latter
[05:12] <sdac221x_> can someone tell me where i can find normal/expected gkrellm temerature sensor readings for dual core 2 laptops ?  i think my cpu and gpu are running too hot specially gpu which is reaching 70C

[05:14] <narma> hello, what are -security repositories for ?
[05:14] <erUSUL> narma: security updates
[05:14] <erUSUL> narma: who have thought it ;)
[05:14] <Lord_Maynoth> mine isn't that slow
[05:15] <narma> erUSUL, yes but why those updates are not into standard repository ?
[05:15] <grhimped> erUSUL: didnt hear anything
[05:15] <MarkCh> narma: they are so important, they warrant their own repo :)
[05:15] <Lord_Maynoth> I formatted my second hard drive as fat32 and used the diskmounter script to automatically set up the fstab for me
[05:15] <Lord_Maynoth> I really wanted it to be ext3 but
[05:15] <erUSUL> grhimped: but there was no error, wasn't it?
[05:16] <Also> ikonia, i found the etc but what there should exist?
[05:16] <grhimped> erUSUL: nope, no error
[05:16] <cobweb> So I'm trying to connect to an AFP share from an Ubuntu box, and I've installed Netatalk and what not but it only seems to act as a server.  Does anyone have any info on whether there is a client for AFP for Ubuntu?  I'm a little confused
[05:16] <narma> but if there is a securoty update into firefox for example, the update will be first into -security repo and few weeks later into main ?
[05:16] <narma> or it will never be into main :)

[05:19] <Bullo> sorry, anybody can tell me if i can connect to irc-hispano with this program?
[05:19] <mmartinez> no...not familiar with any of the symptoms being described here.
[05:19] <shigutso> i've instaled VBox here in my Ubuntu to use as a virtual machine, and the internet works fine, but it gets a strange IP, and not a sequential of my router, like VMWare used to do... and, because of that, i can't open doors for this vitual machine... anybody knows what to do in that case??

[05:20] <erUSUL> Bullo: '/connect irc.irc-hispano'  ??
[05:20] <mmartinez> this program just like all other programs that are IRC are just the tool or interface that one uses to access IRC's.....

[05:22] <grhimped> erUSUL: now it says faile to open sound device
[05:22] <Heavenquake> I've got a wifi-problem. My card seems to be installed correctly, but I can't seem to find any accesspoints, nor get any signal at all. What could possibly be wrong?
[05:22] <Matic`Makovec> Is there any alternative for Vent that "works as intended" on Linux and can of course connect to a Ventrilo server?
[05:22] <mmartinez> the thing I'm discovering though...is that Linux doesn't just install programs onto it's OS....instead  you have to extract and compile them yourself before you can use them.
[05:23] <hitman> http://nuxil.blogspot.com/
[05:23] <Heavenquake> mmartinez: Who made you believe that?
[05:23] <dtolj> mmartinez: lol

[05:24] <mmartinez> HeavenQuake....when I installed Ubunts on my pIII at home....the all hardware was properly discovered and configured for use. My network card although needed to be 'activated' or turned on in order to send out the send and receive signal through the Wireless NIC to my access point for my access point to discover it and assign it an IP through DHCP.

[05:25] <hitman> watch this video "looking glass in ubuntu" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjQ4Nza34ak
[05:26] <grhimped> erUSUL: aplay worked yep. would it be that mp3blaster needs a decoder to play mp3s?
[05:26] <Heavenquake> mmartinez: It is properly activated yes. It's got the "correct"-sign and all.

[05:27] <Heavenquake> mmartinez: have you, on the other hand, ever went to applications -> add/remove ? You'll find that you won't need to compile stuff yourself ;)
[05:27] <Turgon> tam : Have you already tried "gnome-default-applications-properties" ?
[05:27] <leeba> HymnToLife and TimothyP:Are either of you still there?
[05:27] <erUSUL> grhimped: no, i mean that if aplay found the sound card alasamixer should have find it too... it's strange

[05:33] <aneeshm> @ PiplIWYG: Could you please be a little more specific? As in, at what stage does the install stop working? What error messages are displayed, if any?
[05:33] <GutterPunk> Airwulf, I think you need to take a look at man pmount although I'm not sure...
[05:34] <comosicus> guys...when i acces the bit torrent from the aplications it show's someting strange:open location for bit torrent meta file.....and some things with file on my computer bla bla bla
[05:34] <aneeshm> @ PipIWYG: And also, could you also please tell us what hardware you're using?
[05:34] <Repsa_Jih> When you use the ubuntu install cd as live cd, I can't change the screen resolution. Will a hard drive install solve it?
[05:34] <swoke> Since update to latest nvidia drivers, following wiki, I got direct rendering = no, any idea ?
[05:35] <comosicus> whay it not open bit torent downloud site?
[05:35] <also_> i dont have modules directory so what to do? im trying still install linksys windows drivers
[05:36] <slvmchn> what do i use for burning data CDs? in the applications menu i only see serpentine to burn audio CDs
[05:37] <neighborlee> does nvidia installation via synatic work in HURD5 by chance ? ;)
[05:37] <Jowi> slvmchn, nautilus file manager in gnome. go to burn:///
[05:37] <eromero> is there away to force the mount point of an usbkey that gets automounted?
[05:37] <slvmchn> thanks jowi
[05:37] <Lord_Vader> slvmchn, you use nautilus to burn data-cds
[05:38] <Repsa_Jih> When you use the ubuntu install cd as live cd, I can't change the screen resolution. Will a hard drive install solve it?
[05:38] <Lord_Vader> Repsa_Jih, you can change it later by altering your xorg.conf
[05:38] <Jowi> slvmchn, in nautilus click "go" -> "CD/DVD creator"
[05:38] <ikonia> Repsa_Jih probably if the issue is drivers
[05:38] <globe> is there an applications folder in Ubuntu like there is in OSX?  I am trying to manually install a program...its just a binary not a package
[05:38] <slvmchn> it's asking me to put in a blank cd but i already did?
[05:38] <ikonia> globe is there not a package version
[05:38] <slvmchn> synaptic used to give me this problem
[05:38] <slvmchn> i mean serpentine
[05:39] <Jowi> slvmchn, maybe the CD (or burner) is not ok.
[05:39] <globe> ikonia: not taht I know of, its a developer preview of songbird
[05:39] <ikonia> globe if possible I'd advise strongle against binary packages
[05:40] <globe> ikonia: thanks, I know the risk ;-)
[05:42] <Repsa_Jih> i'm going to reboot >_>
[05:42] <alone> hey
[05:42] <alone> hola
[05:43] <riqz> hey
[05:44] <Paul-Way> Hi.. I have broken nautilius after system update.. and dpkg-reconfigure can't fix it
[05:44] <globe> so, if I just copy the program directory to the /etc folder and add a menu item, that is pretty much installing it, right?
[05:44] <Paul-Way> Can you help me, pretty please?
[05:44] <AdvoWork> im just doing a ping from my server, but i cant get it to stop, whats the normal escape char.. i think somethings borked
[05:45] <globe> AdvoWork: Ctrl-C
[05:45] <AdvoWork> globe lol, i swear i tried that, but thanks
[05:45] <globe> AdvoWork: ping will just run until you kill it with Ctrl-c
[05:45] <globe> AdvoWork: you could ctrl-z it and then kill the procses
[05:45] <ComputerHermit> pure madness
[05:46] <stew> is there a policy about how long after a release, a previously released version of ubuntu will continue to get security updates?
[05:47] <kenthomson> HELP; if i add a number of custom repositories to /etc/apt/sources.list, and than i use synaptic to find a package, will the packages included in the non-official custom repositories in sources.list (which have been manually be added), be displayed in the synaptic package manager. Will i be able to remove/add/install different packages from all the repositories included in sources.list or does synaptic show/work only for official ubuntu repositories?
[05:48] <ikonia> kenthomson after you update synaptic/apt it will search all repo's in the list
[05:48] <kenthomson> ikonia, hi!
[05:48] <NotchNick> is there a way to check which version of ubuntu installation I have downloaded.. whether its 64 or 32 bit?
[05:48] <kenthomson> ikonia, so you mean to say synaptic will show display all the packages from all the repositories in sources.list despite they being non-official ubuntu ones?
[05:49] <ikonia> NotchNick un\me -a
[05:49] <globe> NotchNick: usually the filename says something about it
[05:49] <ikonia> NotchNick uname -a
[05:49] <PiNE> i have some .flac audio files that i can't change the metadata of, and i can't change the permission of the files using <sudo nautilus> either. has anyone encountered this? how do i resolve the issue and change the metadata?
[05:49] <ikonia> kenthomson yes
[05:49] <blue|palm> Hi, can anybody tell me if there is some way i can smooth red coloured objects in mplayer? atm all red coloured objects have HUGE pixels while everything else looks great
[05:49] <ikonia> kenthomson weather they workor not is a different matter
[05:49] <defrysk> ikonia, chaeck with which md5sum it matches
[05:49] <kenthomson> ikonia, thank you, right!
[05:49] <ikonia> defrysk check what ?
[05:49] <NotchNick> ubuntu-.6.10-desktop.-386.iso all it says
[05:49] <defrysk> md5sum blah.oso gives a result
[05:50] <ikonia> NotchNick thats 32bit
[05:50] <globe> NotchNick: 32
[05:50] <defrysk> it matches the md5sum of the iso you downloaded
[05:50] <ikonia> defrysk I don't need to know - it wasn't me asking the question
[05:50] <defrysk> ikonia, for the md5sum check the download page
[05:50] <kenthomson> ikonia, i see that recently you have been very active here at IRC helping countless people, i would like to apologise to you for the silly incident that happened a few days back, and offer my sincere gratitude for all that you have done to the community. This is just to let you know, I am really grateful. "Thank you".
[05:50] <defrysk> oh sorry :s
[05:50] <ikonia> defrysk no problem
[05:50] <injbxkyp> ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
[05:50] <srqwohvj> ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
[05:50] <NotchNick> thanks
[05:50] <eromero> anyone knows pmount?
[05:51] <ikonia> kenthomson not a problem
[05:51] <kenthomson> ikonia, i expected such a humble reply from you ;-)
[05:51] <felipeee> hello everybody...someone can help me with adsl problems?
[05:51] <un4get> hi there.. i unable to browse some site with firefox :( the site need IE browser. how to manage this with ubuntu ?
[05:51] <ikonia> un4get no option really, ie's not really available on linux

I _suspect_ that it might be because the mouse "name" (identifier? something like that) changes and so the configuration doesn't apply an

[05:52] <kafka> hello
[05:52] <felipeee> have you tried to change de id of the browser?
[05:52] <gordonjcp> ikonia: rubbish matey

[05:52] <gordonjcp> un4get: ies4linux
[05:53] <un4get> thank gordonjcp
[05:53] <felipeee> someone can help me to route my modem?
[05:53] <ikonia> gordonjcp I said pretty much not available, start messing with that sort of thing seems a bit pointless
[05:53] <ikonia> gordonjcp but i do appriciate that is an option
[05:53] <gordonjcp> ikonia: pointless in what way?
[05:53] <ikonia> gordonjcp well, its not really ie
[05:53] <gordonjcp> ikonia: yes it is, it's IE running under wine
[05:53] <Slynderdale> 30 Days With Ubuntu Linux
[05:53] <Slynderdale> "Vexed by Vista's hardware requirements and product activation issues, many have claimed on various boards that they plan to "switch to Linux." [H]  Consumer spent 30 days using nothing but Ubuntu Linux [CC]  to find out if this is truly a viable alternative for the consumer. Linux has indeed become much more than the "Programmer's OS." "
[05:54] <Slynderdale> http://consumer.hardocp.com/article.html?art=MTI5OCwxLCxoY29uc3VtZXI=
[05:54] <ikonia> gordonjcp ahh thats not the package I was thinking of, in that case even more hassle - running wine just to get ie
[05:54] <ikonia> but thats only a personal opinion
[05:54] <gordonjcp> ikonia: I will admit that the fonts aren't quite the same size
[05:54] <gordonjcp> ikonia: I use ies4linux every day
[05:54] <ikonia> gordonjcp thats a reasonable concesion
[05:54] <stew> does ubuntu 6.06 still get security updates?
[05:54] <sla> lindows
[05:54] <sla> winux
[05:54] <ikonia> gordonjcp I wouldn't be borthered with wine just for ie
[05:54] <ikonia> as I said though thats only my opinion
[05:54] <gordonjcp> ikonia: ahaa, but I can have ie5, 5.5, 6 and 7 *and* firefox
[05:54] <dcordes> is there a channel for linux and PDAs?
[05:55] <koper> Slynderdale, I was reading that but then it seems it got slashdotted. Damn sites splitting articles up in several pages.
[05:55] <globe> gordonjcp: why do you want all these options?
[05:55] <B|00d|u5T> hey

[05:57] <blue|palm> Hi, can anybody tell me if there is some way i can smooth red coloured objects in mplayer? atm all red coloured objects have HUGE pixels while everything else looks great
[05:57] <B|00d|u5T> uhhh well im tryin to install dream linux ive done everything i know to do i mounted the drive formated it went to system and went through the graphical partitioner setup a user and pass then copied all the files to he hd.. it said it should run from the hd and when i try to boot it it says error loading os any idea where im being retarded @??
[05:57] <felipeee> Jowi: via a router...but i don't know if it's working properly, in winxp it's works great
[05:58] <Fred_Sambo> does anyone here have a telephone PBX running on their Ubuntu machines?
[05:58] <Jowi> felipeee, then you should not use linux/windows to set up the connection. the router or modem should have the connection settings.
[05:58] <alpha_q> hey
[05:58] <kenthomson_> gharz, though you should learn this by messing around i will tell you, right click on the start-menu, and click edit-menus, go to other section "add a new item", select the command for it which should be ("gksudo app_name", eg gksudo gedit), and than select a relevant icon, and click ok, put the check mark on, and it will appear in the relevant section
[05:58] <Jowi> felipeee, enter the routers config and set up the connection there.
[05:59] <blue|palm> does anyone know anything about red pixels in mplayer?
[05:59] <B|00d|u5T> i dont know if its really formating the data on that drive
[05:59] <alpha_q> i installed ubuntu today on a machine 2ghz, 512 ram. And it loads really slow. ~ 5-6 minutes
[05:59] <felipeee> Jowi: in linux i cant access the modem conf page ( 10.1.1.1 ) what it means?
[05:59] <alpha_q> after it loads it's ok
[05:59] <ikonia> alpha_q possibly a slow hardware probe
[05:59] <alpha_q> nope
[05:59] <ikonia> or a module having issues
[05:59] <alpha_q> i ran a benchmark program
[05:59] <alpha_q> it says - ok
[05:59] <ikonia> alpha_q nope what ?
[05:59] <gharz> kenthomson, thanks!!! i'll check on it.
[06:00] <yomm> Bloodlust : I had the same issues with DL 2.2 .. gave up in the end , the install worked 1 out of 10 times ...
[06:00] <alpha_q> ikonia not a slow hardware issue
[06:00] <ikonia> alpha_q I didn't say it was a slow hardware issue
[06:00] <bullgard1> Is there a standard requiring a nickname's lenth not to exceed 8 characters?
[06:00] <ikonia> alpha_q I said a slow hardware probe at boot time
[06:00] <Jowi> felipeee, first run "sudo network-admin" and see if you get an ip address from the router. see what the gateway ip address is (that is the address of the router), see if it is truly 10.1.1.1.
[06:00] <yomm> Bloodlust : but try checking their forums
[06:00] <Paul-Way> Hi.. I have broken nautilius after system update.. and dpkg-reconfigure can't fix it.. can you help me?
[06:00] <ikonia> alpha_q then offered that it could be a module not knowing which to use
[06:00] <blue|palm> anyone here have mplayer experience?
[06:00] <alpha_q> well is there a way to speed it up?
[06:00] <kenthomson_> Can no-one HELP ME with the beryl problem?
[06:00] <B|00d|u5T> right on well
[06:00] <flake> how do i untar a .gz file into a directory or by making a new directory?
[06:00] <B|00d|u5T> quick question
[06:00] <gharz> kenthomson, what do u mean right clock on start-menu? where is that start-menu? sorry... i'm a bit confused.
[06:00] <ikonia> kenthomson_ tru #ubuntu-effects
[06:00] <blind> kenthomson_: for beryl try #ubuntu-xgl
[06:00] <B|00d|u5T> i am running the live version of the cd
[06:00] <blind> oh, it's been changed?
[06:00] <B|00d|u5T> it messed up my xp partition
[06:01] <globe> kenthomson_: ask your question ....
[06:01] <ikonia> blind yeah
[06:01] <djbrown> anyone able to help me with an install problem
[06:01] <ikonia> djbrown just ask
[06:01] <B|00d|u5T> i have internet off the live cd
[06:01] <Jowi> blind, I think the channel name has changed
[06:01] <djbrown> well im getting error 17 from grub after install.. and from the looks if it its because of the sata disks
[06:01] <felipeee> Jowi: i guess it is...in win i access this way...pppoeconf waits for PADO packages but dont receive any, time outing
[06:01] <kenthomson_> globe, i am having beryl installed and when i try to lock-screen, through the padlock icon in the gnome-panel, the computer blacks-out, and goes in a semi-lock state; i mean the display doesn't take any input fro my KBD/mouse as it is locked (but if i do alt-tab) than i can see the various thumbnails of windows, even in the locked state!) but than the lock-screen user/name dialog is not displayed properly, when i try to click on it, no data (photo,
[06:01] <kenthomson_> password field, unlock box, etc) appears on it, and it starts vibrating with a lot of speed (the lock-screen dialog box), i can't enter anything into the password field of that dialog box as it vibrates and is washed out. I have to restart X to get my display back. Moreover sometimes when a new window opens, for eg.epiphany or any nautilus window, than it appears completely black with no data on it, and i have to restartX to solve that problem, i ca
[06:01] <kenthomson_> n't force-quit that black annoying window. On disabling beryl all this problems go away, please help me.
[06:01] <djbrown> they get assinged the wrong device numbers at install
[06:02] <B|00d|u5T> would it be possible to dl ubuntu and burn it considering im runing on liv cd version of drem linux
[06:02] <flake> kenthomson - use the pastebin please
[06:02] <stew> does anyone know if 6.06 is still getting security updates and if so, how long it will continue to get security updates? (or where else I should be looking/asking)
[06:02] <Jowi> felipeee, forget pppoeconf. don't use it. that is only if the modem is connected straight to the computer. you will not be able to use pppoeconf for this successfully.
[06:02] <NotchNick> I'd like to install ubuntu.. but I believe it is not supporting my graphic card Nvidia Geforce 8800 GTS.. should I download the desktop or alternate version?
[06:02] <blue|palm> stew: for 3 years since its release
[06:02] <alpha_q> ikonia the same release ran perfectly fine on my office pc
[06:02] <globe> kenthomson_: are you running the latest release of beryl?
[06:02] <stew> blue|palm: thanks
[06:02] <blue|palm> NotchNick: if ubuntu doesnt support it then no linux will support it
[06:02] <ikonia> alpha_q your ofice PC is different hardware - so what does that matter
[06:03] <Jowi> felipeee, dsl rule 1: configure dsl connection either in modem config or router config.
[06:03] <alpha_q> ikonia so is there a way to speed it up?
[06:03] <felipeee> Jowi: the modem is connected straight to the computer   modem - netcard
[06:03] <kenthomson_> globe, latest beryl, on latest nvidia drivers (from the website through "envy"), on AMD Athlon 2600xp+, 512mb RAM, nvidia geforce fx5200
[06:03] <B|00d|u5T> does anybody konw if i can burn cds in live cd mode
[06:03] <B|00d|u5T> ?
[06:03] <B|00d|u5T> i know thats ironic but still
[06:03] <B|00d|u5T> i need to
[06:03] <Jowi> felipeee, you just said that it was connected via a router. make up your mind.
[06:03] <frojnd> hello, what codecs do I need to play vmw file with embedded mplayer plugin?
[06:03] <kenthomson_> flake, that was a typwritten thing by me so its not counted as a paste
[06:03] <NotchNick> blue|palm: but I guess they're doing some tests and there are some configurations to enable the installation?
[06:03] <B|00d|u5T> i need to dl an iso and burn it preferabbly a dvd
[06:03] <yomm> djbrown : get into the grub boot meny by hitting esc , and then try editing the hd number e.g. (0,0)  by pressing e to edit the boot sequence
[06:03] <globe> kenthomson_: hmm...thas almost my exact hardware config.
[06:04] <snarfer> http://consumer.hardocp.com/article.html?art=MTI5OCwxLCxoY29uc3VtZXI=
[06:04] <kenthomson_> globe, :)
[06:04] <kenthomson_> globe, so...?
[06:04] <NotchNick> blue|palm: In order to apply those configurations.. which version should I download?
[06:04] <flake> oh
[06:04] <globe> kenthomson_: just curious, why did you use envy to install the video drivers?
[06:04] <ikonia> kenthomson_ two quick questions. 1.) are you using berly out of the ubuntu repo's (or the suggest ubuntu repo's) 2.) what drivers are you using
[06:04] <felipeee> Jowi: my modem is in routing/bridging status, if i disable the bridging, winxp can't connect
[06:04] <PipIWYG> @ aneeshm: I'm sorry... I seem to have lost you there for a second
[06:04] <kenthomson_> globe, i wanted to get the latest nvidia stable drivers
[06:05] <felipeee> Jowi: so i guess it's routing conf are wrong
[06:05] <blue|palm> NotchNick: hmm the latest is always the best in my opinion so edgy/feisty (edgy would maybe be better if you are new to linux)
[06:05] <djbrown> yomm, im not even getting a menu from it as it is now
[06:05] <blue|palm> NotchNick: linux is the same architecture everywhere so if you use any distro you could end up with the same result
[06:05] <NotchNick> blue|palm yes the desktop or alternate version?
[06:05] <kenthomson_> ikonia, 1) i am using beryl from "deb http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org/ edgy main". 2) I am using the latest nvidia drivers from its website (installed though "envy")
[06:05] <djbrown> yomm, drops right to error 17 and stops
[06:05] <NotchNick> not sure if there is a difference though
[06:05] <blue|palm> NotchNick: livecd is waaaaaay easier to install
[06:06] <blue|palm> NotchNick: both install the same os but the livecd is far more friendlier
[06:06] <ikonia> kenthomson_ ok - so you fine on the beryl version, what as the reason for not using the ubuntu supported nvidia drivers ?
[06:06] <Jowi> felipeee, remove the bridge and set up the connection in the modem. that way the modem handle the connection so in effect, both win and linux will have connection without having to "dial"
[06:06] <globe> kenthomson_: okay, I suppose that works (I just downloaded the file from nvidia.com).  Can you run opengl screensavers when not running beryl?
[06:06] <James> Can anyone help me getting My Ubuntu Box hooked up to my TV via S-vid?
[06:06] <NotchNick> blue|palm can I get a link please? I am using 64bit processor
[06:06] <yomm> djbrown : yaikes :/
[06:06] <djbrown> yomm, ill reboot and see if i can get a menu going.. brb
[06:06] <Jowi> felipeee, pppoeconf should work fine in bridged mode. might be a driver problem. best to set it up in the modem.
[06:07] <kenthomson_> ikonia, i wanted the latest nvidia drivers (stable) so i do it from their website. they are a sane company and wouldn't release any beta-buggy stuff as final-release drivers, besides i wanted the latest stuff and so had to bypass the lethargic packaging team at ubuntu's repos, besides ubuntu can't support proprietary stuff, so its not an ussye
[06:07] <blue|palm> hmm... the easiest would be to go to www.ubuntu.com, click download the os, and choose a country closest to you :)
[06:07] <felipeee> Jowi: i have to create an ppp connection in the modem, for no dialing right? and disable the bridging function?
[06:07] <Jowi> felipeee, sorry, got a kid on my arm so typing is difficult. i need to take a break :)
[06:07] <IdleOne> when do I use the check install command? is it after make and before make install?
[06:07] <blue|palm> NotchNick: id advise against 64-bit atm
[06:07] <kenthomson_> globe, all 3d acceleration including beryl/3d-screen-savers/games are working absolutely ok
[06:07] <blue|palm> NotchNick: just download the 32 bit one
[06:07] <felipeee> Jowi: no problems, do you have msn?
[06:07] <Jowi> felipeee, yes
[06:08] <ikonia> kenthomson_ thats not quite what I was asking. Why did you want the latest nvidia drivers, and you're a little out of understanding on the support issue
[06:08] <Jowi> felipeee, no msn
[06:08] <NotchNick> blue|palm so the 32bit will work?
[06:08] <flake> after I do a make from source, should I link to the binary or do a make-install  ?
[06:08] <dcordes> is there a channel where i can get information on Linux and pocket pcs?
[06:08] <globe> kenthomson_: hmm. are you running beryl from svn or repo?
[06:08] <PipIWYG> Okay.... I need someone else to help me out... aneeshm seems to have dissapeared on me
[06:08] <koper> NotchNick, 32 bit will work
[06:09] <kenthomson_> ikonia, because later versions = stabler versions + effecient harware management, besides they are not buggy-stable as they are final release drivers from a reputable company
[06:09] <blue|palm> NotchNick: yes as koper said
[06:09] <NotchNick> when I tried installing.. this is what happened
[06:09] <NotchNick> 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?
[06:09] <kenthomson_> globe, running beryl from "deb http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org/ edgy main"
[06:09] <felipeee> Jowi: ok, we talk later then, when you get free
[06:09] <gharz> kenthomson_, i got it!!! thanks!!! when u say start-menu... u meant the menu bar... thanks!
[06:09] <blue|palm> NotchNick: hmm then youll have to get the alternate cd then
[06:09] <leeba> Help needed to get my ubuntu server online
[06:09] <mmartinez> Can someon help me out here. All I need is to make sense of the following....
[06:09] <leeba> Please
[06:09] <globe> kenthomson_: okay. thats a repo.
[06:10] <ikonia> kenthomson_ ok - so there was no real reason. The reason I say your out of understanding ont he support option, is because not all drivers are compatible with all kernel and glibc versions, which can cause unusual effects, which is why ubuntu packages certain versions that have no compatability issues
[06:10] <kenthomson_> gharz, ya
[06:10] <blue|palm> NotchNick: and you might have to command line install nvidia drivers (not difficult)
[06:10] <ikonia> kenthomson_ just as an FYI for you
[06:10] <leeba> what command do i use to put my server on line
[06:10] <leeba> i have this as a possible but an not getting anywhere
[06:10] <kenthomson_> ikonia, so you mean to say the later nvidia drivers may be causing this?
[06:10] <koper> NotchNick, I'm using 64 bit ubuntu and haven't had any problems but then again I don't want flash. if you like that sort of stuff you're probably better off with 32 bit (personally i haven't noticed any difference in performance between the two)
[06:10] <sdac221x_> i heard that the generic kernel that comes by default with Edgy handless different architectures so there is no need for specialized build.. is this true ??  what is the best kernel for duo core 2 laptops ?
[06:10] <mmartinez> I don't understand the concept nor the usual steps to download, extract, and compile a program on my Linux instance.
[06:10] <NotchNick> blue|palm: yea I have no idea how to do the command line install thing
[06:10] <IdleOne> getting this error when trying to compile Gimmie http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8804/ using instructions from http://www.ubuntugeek.com/gimmie-a-new-panel-for-gnome-installation-in-ubuntu.html
[06:10] <ikonia> kenthomson_ possibly
[06:11] <ikonia> kenthomson_ just giving you food for thought
[06:11] <blue|palm> NotchNick: ubuntu guides are wonderful
[06:11] <blue|palm> NotchNick: if you have 2 computers your home free
[06:11] <blue|palm> NotchNick: or you might have to download and print the ubuntu guide
[06:11] <NotchNick> blue|palm can u guide me to those guides
[06:11] <globe> kenthomson_: I am running the _latest_ beryl, but I had to change to svn to get everything to work.  I had to do an 'apt-get update & apt-get upgrade' before I could get everything working
[06:11] <mmartinez> I don't think my questions are Ubuntu specific, but, Linux in general....
[06:11] <ikonia> kenthomson_ its not always about latest = better, compatability and supportability
[06:11] <kenthomson_> ikonia, but i noticed observable performance boost while running beryl+kiba-dock when i upgraded from ubuntu's nvidia drivers to nvidia's official latest drivers, and i would like to have that. besides i don't think nvidia would release a driver without thinking about having its negative effect on the worlds largest-growing most-used newbie-intensive distro
[06:11] <leeba> export  http_proxy=:host:port"
[06:11] <blue|palm> NotchNick: sure... www.ubuntuguide.com
[06:11] <blue|palm> NotchNick: sure... www.ubuntuguide.org
[06:12] <blue|palm> NotchNick: its one of them...
[06:12] <leeba> is this correct?
[06:12] <NotchNick> blue|palm and look for command line?
[06:12] <ikonia> kenthomson_ I disagree, the nvidia drivers are built genericly and its up to the distro to move around them (mostly)
[06:12] <merc> where the hell do i go to turn off my screensaver?
[06:12] <leeba> i have my leeba@ubuntulbaber:~$   up on my screen...what do i do now?
[06:12] <kenthomson_> ikonia, so you suggest downgrading the drivers? :(
[06:13] <leeba> to put my ip address etc in to get online
[06:13] <blue|palm> Does anyone have any experience with mpayer?
[06:13] <koper> merc, system -> preferences -> screensaver ?
[06:13] <ikonia> kenthomson_ well moving to a supported platform is often the easy way to debug problems and get ideas, then once its fixed you can always look at upgrading
[06:13] <IdleOne> !ohmy | merc merc, it sure isnt in hell
[06:13] <ubotu> merc merc, it sure isnt in hell: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[06:13] <mmartinez> I successfuly installed Ubuntu onto a Virtual Machine instance on my PC. Within this Ubuntu VM, I would like to install penetration testing softwares, but, installing anything onto Ubuntu is a big production. Download, extract, compile....
[06:13] <merc> i thought it'd be there, but i dont have a screensaver entry :\
[06:13] <globe> kenthomson_: I also had to compile the nvidia drivers from source, that may be it too
[06:14] <ikonia> globe the nvidia drivers are closed source
[06:14] <merc> h e double hockey sticks!
[06:14] <sdac221x_> if anyone see this message please just reply with anything...my messages seem to be invisible on ubuntu irc room since last week
[06:14] <merc> sdac221x_: i see it.
[06:14] <ikonia> sdac221x_ you mayu have been banned last week
[06:14] <mmartinez> When I download a program to install, do I extract it? If so, where do I place the extract in? Once extracted, what?
[06:14] <ikonia> mmartinez you don't download, you use synaptic and apt-get to install products from the ubuntu repo's
[06:14] <IdleOne> mmartinez, what program?
[06:14] <sdac221x_> ikonia:  when banned do you get notified ?  or you can still come into irc rooms
[06:15] <ikonia> sdac221x_ you can "remain" in an irc room if not kicked, and yes you get notified, I was only offering a suggestion
[06:15] <ugo> join #ubuntu.it
[06:15] <PipIWYG> Anyone? Able to help me out... having a graphics problem on install
[06:15] <IdleOne> sdac221x_, usualy when banned from a channel like #ubuntu you cant get in the room at all
[06:15] <globe> ikonia: I dl the .run file from nvidia and it said it compiled the drivers b/c it couldnt find a pkg for my kernel....
[06:15] <leeba> Hello
[06:15] <sdac221x_> ok thanks
[06:16] <leeba> Say..can you help me get my server on line?
[06:16] <ikonia> globe ahh the glibc interface, not the driver, ok

[06:16] <blue|palm> can anyone assist me with a very annoiying mplayer problem that is keeping windows on my second harddrive still (i wont let go of windows till i can fix this :) )
[06:16] <globe> ikonia: yea sorry
[06:16] <mmartinez> IdleOne: Are you insterested in the penetration software or in learning how I go about downloading and installing these?
[06:16] <ikonia> globe thats fine, just being clear
[06:16] <koper> blue|palm, tell us what the problem is and we'll see if anyone has an answer
[06:17] <kenthomson_> ikonia, globe thanks! i will have to do some more research on this issue
[06:17] <IdleOne> mmartinez, I want to know what program you are trying to install as there may be a packaged version in the ubuntu repos
[06:17] <blue|palm> When i play any movie, and come to a seen with deep bright red in it, the pixels are HUGE
[06:17] <ikonia> blue|palm go into options and adjust the hugh
[06:17] <cris> guys
[06:17] <blue|palm> ikonia: im playing from cli
[06:17] <ikonia> blue|palm maybe over bleed on colour
[06:17] <cris> have someone tired feisty?
[06:17] <ikonia> blue|palm go to options in cli
[06:17] <ikonia> cris yes
[06:17] <blue|palm> ikonia: more man page searching :)
[06:18] <IdleOne> cris, type /join #ubuntu+1 for help with feisty
[06:18] <mmartinez> Just joshing you Idle....I don't care. Here it is....it's BiLE.pl
[06:18] <blue|palm> ikonia: what sort of option am i looking for, do you know ?
[06:18] <PipIWYG> Need help with install issue... anyone able to assist??
[06:18] <mmartinez> dfgsdg
[06:19] <ikonia> blue|palm no idea from the cli
[06:19] <ikonia> PipIWYG ask the question
[06:19] <blue|palm> ikonia: what are the reccommended options for using mplayer (for best quality)
[06:19] <IdleOne> mmartinez, you probably need to install perl so you can run .pl scripts
[06:19] <blue|palm> ikonia: tell me for the gui and ill use the gui
[06:19] <PipIWYG> Okay, at first I tried running Virtual Machine to start up the installtion, which loaded fine up to the boot menu. When I select the first option "Run or Install", it starts loading up, but eventually resizes my Virtual PC screen, with the Ubuntu logo stretched and out of the picture...
[06:19] <ikonia> blue|palm you set it up on a per machine basis, depends on monitor, graphics card etc etc
[06:19] <PipIWYG> then... it keeps on loading, and eventually comes back with the graphics all messed up... and I can see my pointer moving on screen, but I can't see any graphics... just lines and garbage... then...
[06:19] <blue|palm> ikonia: lol
[06:19] <PipIWYG> I burnt the ISO to CD, and attempted booting from CD, which eventually gave me some IO error on my HDD, and wouldn't even go as far as the VM console did...
[06:19] <blue|palm> ikonia: ok :(
[06:20] <ikonia> PipIWYG virtual machine issues, sorry, I'm not interested in running through settings with you.
[06:20] <ikonia> PipIWYG you should have an understanding of VM's before using them
[06:20] <mmartinez> OK...that makes sense. So...how do I go about that? Also, you mentioned Synaptic and apt-get...what are these, how do they work?
[06:20] <Stormx2> Hey folks. How can I focus a certain window via a command?
[06:20] <leeba> do you know the command I should use to enter my ip address, subnet mask, gateway, and dns servers?
[06:20] <ikonia> Stormx2 I /think/ there is xsetfocus
[06:20] <leeba> on my ubuntu server
[06:20] <globe> PipIWYG: I would just go live cd
[06:20] <eck> leeba: ifconfig
[06:20] <ikonia> Stormx2 I /think/ there is xsetfocus not sure though
[06:20] <mmartinez> as I understand it, synaptic is the
[06:21] <IdleOne> !synaptic | mmartinez
[06:21] <ubotu> mmartinez: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[06:21] <eck> leeba: route for dns stuff
[06:21] <PipIWYG> ikonia It's not like I haven't used it before... this is the first time this happens... either way... I get the same thing when I boot from CD
[06:21] <mrli> Hi

[06:21] <globe> is CUPS dead?
[06:21] <Stormx2> ikonia: i'll google it
[06:21] <eck> leeba: you can use ifconfig to set all the network parameters
[06:21] <mmartinez> synaptic is a package manager....well....what does it manage? What part of the package and how does it do this?
[06:21] <eck> look at the man page

[06:23] <PipIWYG> My understanding was that I could come here for assistance... obviously not.... thanks for the tip globe... will give it a bash!
[06:23] <djbrown> yomm, yeah i cant even get a menu...
[06:23] <IdleOne> mmartinez, "packages" are what programs are called in ubutnu. there are thousands of packages that you can install ( /msg ubotu !repos ) will explain some of it to you also see Universe and !multiverse
[06:23] <mmartinez> how so?

[06:24] <djbrown> anyone able to help me with some grub problems from the install

[06:25] <djbrown> eck, and i dont get a prompt from grub so i cant fix it there
[06:26] <IdleOne> mrli, this is real time chat not a shoutbox
[06:26] <eck> djbrown: you will have to boot of a live cd, chroot into the old install, and fix it from there
[06:26] <globe> EdgEy: you can't type in the search box in firefox?  on a webpage or in the program
[06:26] <koper> EdgEy, you could make a bookmark for google search with a keyword so you type "g something" and search for something. Doesn't solve the problem but avoids it :)
[06:26] <djbrown> eck, tried that but i cant get the dev system working in the chroot so it detects the disks
[06:26] <EdgEy> globe, it's not everywhere, just on that particular site, it's a Flash search bar
[06:26] <bhudda> Where are program files stored in linux?
[06:26] <mrli> IdleOne: so I can ask a question here ?
[06:26] <ikonia> djbrown chroot won't see it unless you have proc mounted
[06:26] <blue|palm> Has anybody any idea how to fix my mplayer problem where my red pixels are huge!!!!!!!
[06:26] <EdgEy> though it works in windows, i don't think its anything proprietary
[06:26] <djbrown> eck, running from the live cd now since i cant get in to windows either
[06:26] <IdleOne> mrli, yes
[06:26] <leeba> ikonia and eck: : hooray I got to the manual page

[06:27] <blue|palm> Has anybody any idea how to fix my mplayer problem where my red pixels are huge and blocky?
[06:27] <djbrown> ikonia, proc is mounted
[06:27] <ikonia> djbrown that way udev will work
[06:27] <globe> EdgEy: ooh.  I thought you meant the search bar built into ff
[06:27] <ikonia> djbrown does udev log any events

But on close inspection at the lupine page i see that under nvidia-glx, the description says "Description:	Not yet built!". So does that mean it is basically a dummy repo? How can there be a nv

[06:27] <eck> djbrown: when you run grub, do it from the shell instead of with grub-install so you can override what it detects
[06:27] <koper> blue|palm, if you don't get any help here try the forum, sometimes it's easier to get an answer there. IRC is good when you need an answer fast.
[06:28] <globe> EdgEy: yea, I cant type in that either.  it may be broken flash
[06:28] <ikonia> djbrown you also need sysfs

[06:29] <djbrown> ikonia, bind mount it from the live root?
[06:29] <Pak> k
[06:29] <ikonia> eck yes, thats why he needs sysfs to use udev in the chroot
[06:29] <Pak> tnx

[06:29] <gnomefreak> kenthomson: its offftopic forr this channel
[06:29] <leeba> ikonia and eck: so type add then put in my ipaddress?
[06:29] <ikonia> kenthomson get nvidai from the ubuntu repo - not lupines
[06:29] <IdleOne> Pak, preggo
[06:29] <eck> why not just bind mount /dev?
[06:29] <Pak> i-m sorry
[06:29] <EdgEy> globe, i figured out a workaround now, if you choose 'browse the armory' and select a search, a normal non-flash input box loads
[06:29] <EdgEy> :)
[06:30] <ikonia> eck thats fine, but he said he couldn't get udev to work,
[06:30] <eck> djbrown: tbh, this is all covered in the gentoo documentation, where this is the usual install method
[06:30] <ikonia> I thought thats what he watned
[06:30] <globe> EdgEy: cool.  does WOW work well in wine?
[06:30] <tonyyarusso> bhudda: Right click on a .torrent file, go to properties, and under that Open with.
[06:30] <kenthomson> ikonia, even if i want to go that way? could you just tell me if the repo says nvidia-glx "not-yet-built", than whether it is a dummy repo or not?
[06:30] <ikonia> kenthomson the repo says drivers are fine
[06:30] <ikonia> kenthomson you are using edgy - yes
[06:30] <EdgEy> globe, there is a performance hit, but it's otherwise perfect, apart from i can't get AA to work (it worked fine before a reinstall, user error)
[06:30] <djbrown> eck, think it got it sorted now
[06:31] <kenthomson> ikonia, in the repo page under nvidia-glx, the description says "not-yet-built". Does it mean that it doesn't exist (as of now) in that repo?
[06:31] <globe> EdgEy: hmm.  never thought they would get it to work.  cool.
[06:31] <ikonia> kenthomson which repo are you looking in
[06:31] <djbrown> eck, thing is it finds the sata disks as hd0 hd1
[06:31] <mrli> I tried alsamixer, and the more obvious volume control but there is only a check button, which is not exactly what I'm looking for
[06:31] <ikonia> kenthomson and you are using edgy - yes
[06:31] <leeba> ikonia and eck: it is on manual page rout(8) line 16... what do i type to add the ip address:
[06:31] <kenthomson> ikonia, http://nvidia.limitless.lupine.me.uk/ubuntu/dists/edgy/stable/
[06:31] <djbrown> eck, but at boot i think they are hd2 hd3
[06:32] <kenthomson> ikonia, find the term nvidia-glx on that webpage and read the description
[06:32] <eck> djbrown: you can over ride them with the device command
[06:32] <leeba> in the command line
[06:32] <ikonia> kenthomson - I just told you to not use lupines repo - to use the ubuntu one
[06:32] <leeba> ikonia and eck: sorry.. in the command line?
[06:32] <ikonia> leeba please stop talking to me
[06:32] <leeba> ok
[06:32] <ikonia> thanks
[06:32] <leeba> sorry
[06:32] <kenthomson> ikonia, and i asked whether you would be kind enough to still help me if my opinion differed from yours ;)
[06:32] <eck> djbrown: http://www.novell.com/documentation/suse91/suselinux-adminguide/html/ch07s04.html
[06:32] <djbrown> eck, might have it sorted.. have to reboot and check...
[06:32] <babo> can anyone help me debug a sound issue ?
[06:33] <ikonia> kenthomson well yeah, but it sort of defeats the object if lupine doesn't have an nvida build
[06:33] <Stormx2> Heya. I've got LIRC setup via my line-in using the lirc-alsa driver. I need to start lirc on boot, but the "lircd" needs root permissions. I guess it needs to start after alsa has started. Any ideas? I'm very new to the whole linux boot process.
[06:33] <francois> babo: can't help if you dont' ask the question ;)
[06:33] <ikonia> Stormx2 did you get lirc out of the ubuntu repo ?
[06:34] <babo> francois: my mic isn't working. I've done everything that I can think of to fix it ...
[06:34] <Pak> I get problems when I try to install kubuntu...after I install it and reboot the computer, the display gets black and it doesn't do anything
[06:34] <Stormx2> ikonia: compiled. Works a treat.
[06:34] <darkcommon> LO!
[06:34] <Pak> can someone help me?
[06:34] <leafw> is there any way to get reliable sleep/suspend in thinkpads with edgy? Does feisty do a better job?
[06:34] <ikonia> Stormx2 clearly it doesn't as you can't start it
[06:34] <darkcommon> Pak its XServer
[06:34] <ikonia> Stormx2 why did you not use the repo's version ?
[06:34] <darkcommon> you need an better GraphicsCard (probably)
[06:34] <Stormx2> ikonia: Excuse me?
[06:34] <Pak> ah
[06:34] <ikonia> Stormx2 why did you not use the repo's version ?
[06:34] <Stormx2> ikonia: I can start it, it works fine.
[06:34] <ekimus> is there some udev guide available, i want to create a few raid devices on reboot but haven't used udev by now
[06:35] <Pak> isn't there anything else I can do?
[06:35] <ikonia> Stormx2 then why are you asking for boot script help ?
[06:35] <kelsin> babo: are you getting any error messages? When you run "gnome-volume-control" (or double click the speaker in the panel) is the microphone muted or set to no volume?
[06:35] <francois> babo: don't know, sorry, ask generally, my mic just worked, but it might have to do with something in the xorg file
[06:35] <Stormx2> ikonia: If you are too stubborn to help with something that isn't lirc-specific or specific to how I installed it at all, please say nothing.
[06:35] <PipIWYG> Can anyone tell me if there's a shortcut key assigned to launch console... or to exit X Server so that I can try to configure my display?
[06:35] <eck> ekimus: it might be simpler just to create the device nodes statically
[06:35] <LinuxNoob> greetings
[06:35] <EdgEy> PipIWYG, ctrl+alt+function key
[06:35] <ikonia> Stormx2 I'm asking what the problem is - and why you didn't use the ubuntu repo version
[06:35] <PipIWYG> Thanks
[06:36] <Stormx2> ikonia: I don't need to be ridiculed for something I've got working. I've been using ubuntu since warty, don't tell me how to install packages.
[06:36] <EdgEy> by function key i mean, F1/F2 etc
[06:36] <Pak> well, thanks anyway
[06:36] <Pak> bye bye
[06:36] <Stormx2> ikonia: Its not a problem. Its a question. I need to start a command as root after alsa has started
[06:36] <ikonia> Stormx2 are you deaf ?? I'm not rediculing you, I'm asking a.) what the problem is if you can start it b.) why you didn't use the repo version ?
[06:36] <eck> ekimus: if you want to do it with udev, look at the man page
[06:36] <kelsin> Stormx2: he's asking perfectly acceptable questions. If you didn't install with the ubuntu packages, it's good to know why
[06:36] <ikonia> Stormx2 ok so drop a boot script in
[06:36] <Stormx2> ikonia: That is basically the same text as initial question.
[06:37] <ikonia> kelsin exactly - was there a reason
[06:37] <LinuxNoob> I tried to install Edgy x64 last night and had an issue: "Fatal server error: no screens found" and I'm trying to boot up so I can try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg", but it won't get past "Booting the kernel." any ideas?
[06:37] <Stormx2> ikonia; Righto, how?
[06:37] <ekimus> eck: i did that already but a) now's the time to learn udev (afaik even debian uses it now) and b) because i can - well in the future hopefully
[06:37] <ikonia> Stormx2 well, right a boot script and depending on which ubuntu version you're using depends where you put it
[06:37] <ikonia> Stormx2 why did you not use the repo version
[06:37] <ekimus> eck: hehe, wow the first rtfm in my ubuntu career
[06:37] <kelsin> Stormx2: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/09/07/adding-a-startup-script-to-be-run-at-bootup/ first hit in google for ubuntu startup script
[06:37] <eck> ekimus: also, good documentation in /usr/share/doc/udev
[06:37] <Stormx2> ikonia: I appreciate the help, sorry about that. I installed from source because I had some issues with the deb. It turns out I was doing it wrong. I swapped between the deb and the source for a while before I realised what I was doing wrong. I got it working, and, why risk losing a working install?
[06:38] <eck> that's probably more accessible
[06:38] <eck> udev can be a bit of a bear though
[06:38] <babo> kelsin: nope, no error messages. Nothing is on mute.
[06:38] <alexstacey> hello
[06:38] <ikonia> Stormx2 just to be clear where you using a random deb or the package from the ubuntu repo ?
[06:38] <LinuxNoob> hello alex
[06:38] <kelsin> Stormx2: the repository version installs a boot script for you, one of the main reaons we keep asking
[06:38] <Stormx2> ikonia: Ubuntu repo.
[06:38] <kelsin> Stormx2: /etc/init.d/lirc
[06:38] <alexstacey> can anyone recommend a good gui scp app?
[06:38] <ikonia> kelsin thats one of the reasons I was asking
[06:39] <eck> alexstacey: nautilus
[06:39] <Stormx2> kelsin: Well, I'll try installing the repo version then I suppose.
[06:39] <tonyyarusso> alexstacey: nautilus?
[06:39] <Stormx2> Actually blah
[06:39] <ikonia> Stormx2 try installing the package - ripping of the install script, hackingit then copying it place, then removing the package
[06:39] <ikonia> Stormx2 thats assuming you're hell bent on using the soruce version
[06:39] <Stormx2> Is the repo version designed for serial devices only?
[06:39] <alexstacey> eck and tonyyarusso - i thank you =] 
[06:39] <Stormx2> Or can it be used with alsa too?
[06:39] <kelsin> Stormx2: or just download the deb and take the init script out of it, yeah
[06:39] <ikonia> Stormx2 no, I've got it running on a usb
[06:39] <finalbeta> !launchapd
[06:39] <ikonia> Stormx2 alsa ??? alsa is a sound device
[06:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about launchapd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:39] <eck> alexstacey: places > connect to server
[06:39] <finalbeta> !launchpad
[06:39] <ubotu> launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's Bounty and Bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/
[06:39] <LinuxNoob> ok, if no one can help, is there a way to remove this crap OS, since it won't work with my PC? (as in remove the GRUB boot loader)
[06:40] <Stormx2> LinuxNoob: Install windows.
[06:40] <ikonia> LinuxNoob thats not the way to ask
[06:40] <ikonia> LinuxNoob good luck with that attitude
[06:40] <Stormx2> LinuxNoob: First, shoot yourself in the face.
[06:40] <ikonia> Stormx2 are you sure you meant alsa before, or did you mean usb (perhaps)
[06:40] <francois> ahahaha
[06:40] <LinuxNoob> sorry, i'm in a bad mood, i spend 9 hours last night trying to get this to work and i've gotten nowhere
[06:40] <Stormx2> LinuxNoob: What problem did you have?
[06:40] <ikonia> LinuxNoob sorry if I can't be bothered to help with your attitude
[06:40] <un4get> :)
[06:41] <kelsin> babo: can you run "sudo cat /var/lib/alsa/asound.state" and then pastebin it?
[06:41] <LinuxNoob>  I tried to install Edgy x64 last night and had an issue: "Fatal server error: no screens found" and I'm trying to boot up so I can try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg", but it won't get past "Booting the kernel."
[06:41] <kelsin> !pastebin | babo
[06:41] <ubotu> babo: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[06:41] <Stormx2> ikonia: I meant alsa. My first message specifcally mentioned line-in.
[06:41] <LinuxNoob> it won't boot in recovery mode either
[06:41] <ikonia> Stormx2 line in - lirc as a remove control daemon, I may have missunderstood what you're using it for
[06:41] <hannu> !pastebin | hannu
[06:41] <Stormx2> LinuxNoob: Thats an X error. You can't get to X before ubuntu has booted.
[06:41] <Seb_SFI> Hello does someone came to compile its own valgrind on edgy. It's not working.
[06:41] <tonyyarusso> LinuxNoob: What happens in recovery mode?
[06:41] <ikonia> Stormx2 I'm interested how your using a remote control demon with a sounddevice,sounds interesting
[06:41] <kelsin> LinuxNoob: just use your windows cd, there is a recovery program "fixmbr" that will overright you're mbr back to windows defaults
[06:42] <Stormx2> LinuxNoob: So your kernel must have worked at some point
[06:42] <Stormx2> ikonia: I didn't want to buy an IR receiver so I just made one.
[06:42] <PipIWYG> Is it a problem if I get a msg saying "isapnp: checksum for device 1 is not valid (0x89)?
[06:42] <LinuxNoob> yes, after the install finished, i was at the BASH shell (xserver couldn't boot), and then when I rebooted to windows to ask a question, it won't boot into bash anymore
[06:42] <Stormx2> ikonia: Was very easy and extremely cheap. Plus if you unmute the line-in you can hear the button noises, hah
[06:43] <kelsin> Stormx2: if it's a compile time option then I'm sure it's included, most deb packages have most features included. If it's a runtime option then it will definiately work
[06:43] <babo> kelsin: thanks ... http://www.pastebin.ca/382468
[06:43] <LinuxNoob> all i typed was "man sudo" and rebooted
[06:43] <Stormx2> kelsin: Its a compile-time option
[06:43] <ikonia> Stormx2 sounds interesting, but I'm not sure how you can use an infrared device with a soundcard device (simpliosticly)
[06:43] <tonyyarusso> LinuxNoob: It definitely sounds like it IS booting - you just have an X problem
[06:43] <rapid> as a remote possibly?
[06:43] <LinuxNoob> well, how do i get to the bash shell so I can try to reconfig it?
[06:44] <rapid> Linux_Junkie, go into system, terminal.
[06:44] <ikonia> Stormx2 from expereince normally the input is serial, usb, parallel etc, so I'm interested how your using an audio interface (alsa) as an input, sounds very unusual
[06:44] <Stormx2> ikonia: Nice little componant and a small circuit. You get a jack plug, cut the wire, solder the output on, plug it in, and voila ;)
[06:44] <tonyyarusso> LinuxNoob: Ctrl-Alt-F1
[06:44] <LinuxNoob> during boot? or at the GRUB loader
[06:44] <ikonia> Stormx2 do you have any docs, I'd be really interested in seeing it, more so because I had no idea it was even possible, let alone how to do it
[06:44] <tonyyarusso> LinuxNoob: After it's booted.
[06:44] <Stormx2> ikonia: one moment.
[06:45] <ikonia> Stormx2 thanks
[06:45] <LinuxNoob> ok, i'll try... brb
[06:45] <LinuxNoob> thank you
[06:45] <Stormx2> ikonia: http://lirc.org/ir-audio.html
[06:45] <WannabeNewbie> Anyone know how to fix a mouse issue. My issue is the mouse will not click on most items but will on others. For instance I can click synaptic manager from the drop down list but I cannot click on the apply button inside the application. Ideas?
[06:45] <SonnyJim> Hi there, normally a gentoo user but I thought I'd try out Ubuntu on an old laptop.  Is it possible to install ubuntu with 128M of RAM?
[06:45] <ikonia> Stormx2 thank you
[06:45] <rapid> SonnyJim, yes
[06:45] <Stormx2> ikonia: I used that circuit, but instead of the simple "audio" driver (I couldn't get it working) I used the alsa driver
[06:45] <ikonia> SonnyJim your on the border line
[06:45] <isofunk> sup?
[06:45] <Stormx2> ikonia: Its sitting on top of my monitor in an old audio tape case.
[06:46] <ikonia> Stormx2 thats the part that interests me using an audio interface, no idea how that works
[06:46] <ikonia> Stormx2 sounds very different
[06:46] <ikonia> I'll be reading this
[06:46] <SonnyJim> I'm having troubles, I'll get the error message in a bit.  It's something to do with gpm not being able to write to disk
[06:46] <ikonia> SonnyJim should be straight forward for someone use to using gentoo
[06:46] <azabua> does anyone know of a good flv  2 mpeg converter for VCD creation?
[06:46] <Stormx2> ikonia: I bought a 5V adaptor but you could easily use a USB cable or whatever...
[06:46] <SonnyJim> "GPM could not create an authorisation file. No space left on disk"  Are there some boot options I'll need to tweak?
[06:47] <ikonia> SonnyJim the error is pretty clear
[06:47] <SonnyJim> ikonia: And your recommended remedy?
[06:47] <ikonia> Stormx2 I can see how it would interface with usb or say serial but its the alsa bit thats curious
[06:47] <ikonia> SonnyJim clear some space
[06:47] <Stormx2> ikonia: Its just sound
[06:47] <SonnyJim> ikonia: I'm trying to install
[06:47] <azabua> does anyone know of a good flv  2 mpeg converter for VCD creation?
[06:47] <Stormx2> ikonia: You set the line-in as your capture device, and it just receives the data
[06:47] <SonnyJim> Haven't even got to putting stuff on disk yet
[06:47] <kelsin> Stormx2: what compile time option is it?
[06:47] <eck> SonnyJim: how much space did you allocate?
[06:47] <isofunk> ?
[06:47] <ikonia> Stormx2 reading up on this
[06:48] <kelsin> babo: one sec :) sorry for being slow
[06:48] <SonnyJim> eck: I don't even get to do that, it's still in console mode
[06:48] <Stormx2> kelsin: Can't remember. In the ./configure it lets you choose the driver you want
[06:48] <ikonia> SonnyJim so you've not got enough ram to launch gpm as the disk is "ram"
[06:48] <SonnyJim> ikonia: nss
[06:48] <azabua> does anyone know of a good flv  2 mpeg converter for VCD creation?
[06:48] <Stormx2> ikonia: i actually used this circuit, sorry: http://people.inf.ethz.ch/mringwal/lirc/
[06:48] <ikonia> Stormx2 bookmarked, thank you
[06:48] <eck> azabua: i think mencoder will work
[06:48] <azabua> should I go to another channel
[06:48] <babo> kelsin: np
[06:49] <azabua> eck: aggreed yet I don't think it's that user friendly
[06:49] <azabua> do you know of any .... plain english tutorials
[06:49] <azabua> ?
[06:49] <Shane-S> is there a pre-package Webalizer or AWStats I could install on my ubuntu server?
[06:49] <eck> azabua: i think that's pretty much your only option for transcoding in linux
[06:49] <ikonia> Shane-S search the repos
[06:49] <Stormx2> ikonia: The tsop chip handles the IR. Then a couple resistors shrink the current and it gets fed right into the line-in. Its as simple as that
[06:49] <eck> azabua: i think there are some frontends, not sure how well they work
[06:49] <azabua> do you know of any documentation?
[06:49] <Stormx2> ikonia: I didn't even use a PCB ;P
[06:49] <koper> azabua, check out doom9.org it's the best place for that kind of stuff.
[06:49] <bigjohnto> anyone here used g4u?
[06:49] <ikonia> Stormx2 you've sparked an interest
[06:49] <tonyyarusso> Shane-S: should be at least one of those in the repos
[06:49] <WannabeNewbie> Ideas on how to get a mouse to function properly? It was working just fine, then I installed some updates for it through synaptic, after that it all went to hell in a hand-basket. I uninstalled through synaptic and am still having the same issues. Ideas?
[06:49] <azabua> will do ... thanks a bunch ... will return if I get any news
[06:50] <MrAssembler> hi, i am new to ubuntu and i want to modify the startup process of my system, but i cant find the file initab, where, on other systems, the init program gets its information. where is this file or the ubuntu equivalent??
[06:50] <Stormx2> ikonia: :) Make one, if you don't already have an IR device. Its very reliable with a high enough sample rate
[06:50] <Shane-S> bigjohnto: try g4l thing it has a larger user base
[06:50] <SonnyJim> bigjohnto: I've heard there was a few copyright issues surrounding it, as in it was pretty much lifted from someelse without permission
[06:50] <kelsin> Stormx2: looking at the debian unstable package at least, it checks for alsa hardware and includes the alsa driver, so I bet the package includes it, that was probably irrelavent info by this point
[06:50] <Shane-S> thats an "L" not a "one"
[06:50] <bigjohnto> ok
[06:50] <bigjohnto> thanks
[06:50] <Stormx2> kelsin: Yeah. Well, I just need to know when alsa starts, and start lircd after that...
[06:50] <eck> MrAssembler: there is no longer an inittab, look at /etc/event.d/
[06:50] <kelsin> babo: so when you run Programs->Sound->Sound Recorder, does it not let you select Microphone, or does it and you get no sound?
[06:51] <humbolto> how to get the best out of my nvidia card?!
[06:51] <humbolto> my cpu utilization is 100% when I run gl-billiard (or anything gl). seems like all is rendered on my cpu instead of on my nvidia card.
[06:51] <MrAssembler> ah ok thx eck!
[06:51] <bigjohnto> and you are sure g4l is different then g4u?
[06:51] <humbolto> no beryl running when doing that
[06:51] <Shane-S> bigjohnto: when I searched 2 month ago yeah
[06:51] <Lord_Vader> humbolto, have you installed nvidia drivers?
[06:51] <bigjohnto> ok cool thanks
[06:51] <kelsin> Stormx2: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/09/07/adding-a-startup-script-to-be-run-at-bootup/ that site tells you have to install a startup script, man update-rc.d will tell you more about setting priority
[06:51] <Shane-S> bigjohnto: I had used g4u and its didn't have a GUI like g4l screenshots showed
[06:52] <kelsin> Stormx2: as long as the priority is after alsa's you'll be good
[06:52] <Shane-S> well text based gui anyways
[06:52] <eck> MrAssembler: i think that the stuff that used to be handled by the combination of init + inittab is now all done by upstart, so you might look at the documentation for that if you are doing something that requires editing the equivalent of the inittab
[06:52] <humbolto> Lord_Vader: yes
[06:52] <eck> although i think that really all it is used for is spawning gettys on the ttys
[06:52] <djbrown> eck: can you give me those links again
[06:52] <babo> kelsin: I get no sound ...
[06:52] <Lord_Vader> humbolto, beryl isn't very stable, I have it myself but it's shut down for now
[06:52] <Leo__> hello. I've been using ubuntu edgy eft 6.10 for a couple of months and it just broke down in some way. I don't know how these things work really, but it crashed, then i went to recovery mode and it started a volume check, got to about 42% then failed. I can't get on ubuntu now so i'm on windows. anyone able to help? cheers
[06:53] <babo> kelsin: I can record, but I can't hear the playback ...
[06:53] <Seb_SFI>  Is there a Chan for developpers ?
[06:53] <humbolto> Lord_Vader: xorg.conf device driver nvidia. Not talking about beryl at all!
[06:53] <Shane-S> this is gonna sound dumb...how do I search the repos?
[06:53] <francois> Leo__: you using dual boot on the same drive ?
[06:53] <kelsin> babo: but you can select "Microphone" correct?
[06:53] <eck> djbrown: read 7.4.2 of this: http://www.novell.com/documentation/suse91/suselinux-adminguide/html/ch07s04.html
[06:53] <Leo__> ummmmmm
[06:53] <Stormx2> kelsin: Where are all the init (or whatever) scripts stored? I'll find out what priority alsa is...
[06:53] <Leo__> i have windows on a partition, and linux on another
[06:53] <humbolto> Lord_Vader: want to run gl apps accelerated on my nvidia card that's it
[06:53] <francois> Leo__: but on the same drive correct /
[06:53] <Leo__> yes
[06:53] <kelsin> Shane-S: you can use the "apt-get" program on the command line, or "aptitude" frmo a terminal or "Synaptic" from the Administration menu in gnome
[06:54] <Lord_Vader> humbolto, sorry I misinterpreted that.. where did you get your nvidia drivers?
[06:54] <Shane-S> ok, no web-based search huh
[06:54] <babo> kelsin: LineIn/MicBypass/Capture/ExtMic.  ... btw ... the mic that I'm using is the one that's inbuilt in the laptop
[06:54] <francois> Leo__: well at least we know its not a drive failure, well at least lets hope not
[06:54] <kelsin> Stormx2: in the /etc/rc#.d folders: locate alsa | grep ^\/etc\/rc
[06:54] <francois> Leo__: so where exactly does it stop
[06:54] <tonyyarusso> Shane-S: packages.ubuntu.com, yes - but apt is more direct, since you can then install what you find
[06:54] <kelsin> babo: and none of those let you get the input? Is the Mike "on"? is there some function key switch to turn it off on the laptop?
[06:54] <Shane-S> ty
[06:55] <Leo__> i think 42%, but it doesn't say where or at what stage. it mentions something about files being read only, which is odd as just as it was crashing, my openoffice docs wouldn't save and said they were read only
[06:55] <humbolto> Lord_Vader: they are included in the restricted-modules package
[06:55] <Stormx2> kelsin: Mines in 0 and 6? o.o
[06:55] <exs> how do I get gaim to send the same message to 10 of my contacts at the same time?.. msgplus for windows does that by typing /all before the message
[06:55] <djbrown> eck: not exactly sure what the sata disks end up as though
[06:55] <Lord_Vader> humbolto, you should NOT be using those included in there, they are OBSELETE
[06:55] <francois> Leo__: ok, so you boot up ubuntu, and it procedes to do a drive check ? and crashes at 42% ?
[06:55] <Shane-S> lol I forget if I have dapper or edgy installed :P
[06:56] <Shane-S> what was .10?
[06:56] <Leo__> francois: aye, that's correct
[06:56] <djbrown> eck: since the live cd get's the disks at hd0 hd1 im guessing they would end up as hd2 hd3 when the usual ide stuff is active at boot
[06:56] <uberF> err
[06:56] <kelsin> Stormx2: bottom line is if you set it to priority 99 it will go after alsa no matter what
[06:56] <un4get> hello there. how can i view chinese character and translate it in ubuntu ?
[06:56] <kelsin> Stormx2: that's where more startup scripts that just want to be run after the main system daemons go
[06:56] <francois> Leo__: have you let it run for a while ? to see if it just needs time ? or does it crash giving error
[06:56] <Stormx2> kelsin: Okay
[06:57] <azabua> my goal is to convert youtube video in to VCD's so I can play them on my DVD player ... I'm very close to this process anyone interested?
[06:57] <Stormx2> kelsin: And in the rc's, does the stuff in 6 start after the stuff in 0, yeah?
[06:57] <uberF> i pressed F1 (or something like that) and my system switched away from the gui to TTY1,  how do i get it back?
[06:57] <kelsin> Stormx2: I have my main one is rcS which is for normal single user stuff
[06:57] <killown> My grub boot manager was erased how I do to recover grub now?
[06:57] <humbolto> Lord_Vader: I am using some from an other repository. But anyhow, this certainly is not the source of my problem!
[06:57] <Leo__> it does crash giving an error. i should have written it down. i could write it down and get back here
[06:57] <francois> uberF: alt f7
[06:57] <kelsin> Stormx2: no, you should mess with those folders, you place your script in /etc/init.d and use update-rc.d to add symlinks to those rc folders
[06:57] <azabua> if it's been done would love to know how and when?
[06:57] <babo> kelsin: there's speaker key on the laptop. On windows it works fine and comes up as blue. On linux it comes up as red and I can't toggle it ...
[06:57] <francois> Leo__: yes please, otherwise i don't know what to look for :)
[06:57] <kelsin> Stormx2: 6 is for reboot and 0 is for halt, my main alsa file was linked to S
[06:58] <Lord_Vader> humbolto, u sure? it looks to me like your drivers are not doing it's job with the hardware acceleration
[06:58] <koper> killown,  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows?action=show&redirect=RestoreGrub
[06:58] <kelsin> babo: what type of laptop?
[06:58] <azabua> yesterday I did my first however the converter I used left a crappy watermark
[06:58] <Stormx2> kelsin: kk
[06:58] <Leo__> sure thing. sorry, a bit crap at all this. back in a bit
[06:58] <Stormx2> kelsin: Thanks, I understand now :)
[06:58] <azabua> doom9.org was last updated 2003
[06:58] <azabua> so it's out of date
[06:58] <Stormx2> kelsin: its all executed as root, yeah?
[06:58] <un4get> any word translater for ubuntu ?
[06:59] <kelsin> Stormx2: yes, if you need a lot more help you can google for debian startup scripts as well, a lot of info on the web and it's the same system of course
[06:59] <kelsin> Stormx2: (if you need to do something really crazy with them etc)
[06:59] <Seb_SFI> Hello does someone came to compile its own valgrind on edgy. It's not working.
[06:59] <humbolto> Lord_Vader: Which should direct our suspicion onto something being wrong in xorg.conf!
[06:59] <koper> azabua, you checked out their forum too?
[06:59] <Ultra> ello
[06:59] <azabua> still reading ....
[06:59] <un4get> !help translate
[06:59] <azabua> searching ...
[06:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about help translate - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:00] <kelsin> Seb_SFI: any reason you aren't using valgrind from the ubuntu repositories?
[07:00] <azabua> koper: thanks for the tip
[07:00] <humbolto> Lord_Vader: Since I configured the damn thing to work with beryl, I guess I must have commented out something I would need for GL apps.
[07:00] <Ultra> got a bit of an interesting problem... trying to install ubuntu onto a laptop with a broken CDROM and without the ability to boot from a USB flash drive
[07:00] <djbrown> eck: also i dont have a /etc/grub.conf as suggested by that document to use for the update
[07:00] <Ultra> it does however have XP already installed
[07:00] <Ultra> is there a way to install ubuntu from within XP?
[07:00] <eck> djbrown: you can set hd* to whatever you like, the important thing is that it is mapped to the correct device in the device.map
[07:00] <humbolto> Lord_Vader: Guess Load "Dri" and Load "GLcore" might be riquired
[07:00] <Lord_Vader> humbolto, you seem to be happy with your little problem there, I really think you should uninstall the restricted modules (nvidia-kernel-common) and get fresh drivers from nvidia.com, reconfigure your xorg.conf with the nvidia-supplied tool
[07:00] <killown> My grub boot manager was erased how I do to recover grub now?
[07:01] <djbrown> eck: yeah.. and i did try setting it manually in devices.map to hd2 and hd3
[07:01] <killown> I have distro live ubuntu
[07:01] <killown> I need recover grub
[07:01] <eck> djbrown: /etc/grub/conf is /boot/grub/menu.lst
[07:01] <ikonia> !grub >
[07:01] <djbrown> eck: ran grub-install hd2 after that, didnt work
[07:01] <ikonia> !grub >killown
[07:01] <kelsin> killown: someone JUST linked it to you: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows?action=show&redirect=RestoreGrub
[07:01] <Seb_SFI> kelsin: yes : too old, I am interrested by the recents features. I was hoping a source compile should work as usual but not for this tool ...
[07:01] <Kisom> Ultra: Check https://wiki.ubuntu.com/install.exe out. I used the same thing to install Debian, worked quite good.
[07:01] <djbrown> eck: did grub-install hd3 and that didnt work either
[07:01] <koper> killown,  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows?action=show&redirect=RestoreGrub
[07:01] <eck> djbrown: no need for grub-install, that will overwrite the settings
[07:01] <Ultra> thanks Kisom
[07:01] <killown> djbrown: I cannot grub-install /dev/hda  its say device not found
[07:01] <ikonia> !grub >killown
[07:02] <djbrown> eck: how do i update the grub install after changing devices.map then
[07:02] <battlesquid> is there some application that can run simple windows programs? must run on ubuntu 6.10 amd64!
[07:02] <eck> djbrown: with the --batch command listed
[07:02] <kelsin> battlesquid: wine
[07:02] <djbrown> eck: dumps a lod of errors and exits
[07:02] <battlesquid> kelsin, for amd64?
[07:03] <djbrown> eck: load*
[07:03] <eck> djbrown: uh, just do this
[07:03] <kelsin> battlesquid: not sure about the amd64 requirement, but it's one of the only packages for running windows programs easily
[07:03] <eck> type 'grub' and you will be dropped into a grub shell
[07:03] <milian> hi there, has someone build kde4 here? if so - do you know which package is the network-manager dependency for kdebase? (network-manager-dev does not seem to be sufficient)
[07:03] <eck> then you set up your devices with the 'device' command, and finish it off with the 'setup' command
[07:03] <djbrown> killown: you'd have to do grub-install hd0
[07:03] <ikonia> milian ask in #kde
[07:03] <Pollywog> what is the best way to install Gnome on a kubuntu Edgy system?
[07:03] <ikonia> !grub >killown
[07:03] <battlesquid> kelsin, i know wine, but it's only 32 package for that
[07:03] <ikonia> Pollywog apt-get install gnome
[07:03] <dojo> hey all,how do i upgrade libefreetype6 because it doesnt give me a upgrade option
[07:03] <eck> i think the syntax is like 'device (hd0) /dev/hda'
[07:03] <milian> ikona: in #kde4-devel they said I shall ask here :D
[07:03] <kelsin> Pollywog: "sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop"
[07:04] <djbrown> eck: ill give that a shot then
[07:04] <Pollywog> ahh thanks that was too obvious for me
[07:04] <babo> kelsin: HP Pavillion 6000
[07:04] <ikonia> milian its not pre-packages yet, so ask in #kde
[07:04] <ikonia> milian there is no ubuntu package yet
[07:04] <milian> mkay
[07:04] <eck> and to install it to the mbr you run 'setup (hd0,2)' where that corresponds to the third partition of the device hd0 is mapped to
[07:04] <ikonia> milian that i'm aware of
[07:04] <killown> I have do update-grub
[07:04] <killown> it work fine
[07:04] <ikonia> !grub >killown
[07:04] <killown> ?
[07:04] <killown> !grub
[07:04] <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
[07:04] <Ultra> Kisom: surely that's gonna be a pretty slow installation... it'll be running from a non-native FS won't it?
[07:04] <milian> ok, thanks ikonio, I'll compile it then
[07:05] <bullgard1> Ultra: There is a way to boot Ubuntu from within Windows. I have read that. Please google for it.
[07:05] <djbrown> eck: the setup command should be for the disk that linux is on correct?
[07:05] <djbrown> eck: setup (hd2) in this case
[07:05] <eck> djbrown: the 'hd0' and 'hd1' and so forth are just to make it convenient for you to refer to them, grub will translate these to bios devices behind the scenes
[07:05] <ikonia> bullgard1 there is an install method within windows - not a boot method
[07:05] <Ultra> bullgard1: note that i'm not trying to do it VM-style... i actually want to replace XP
[07:05] <kelsin> babo: from googling it appears that many people can't get that microphone to work, you might be out of luck with that onbaord microphone
[07:05] <eck> djbrown: it should refer to the partition that /boot i son
[07:06] <Kisom> Ultra: Hmm, I never really did check that installer out. Looks like the O/S will be running under Windows if I understood the page correctly. I used the installer from goodbye-microsoft.com, which will install Debian in its own partition.
[07:06] <Ultra> ic
[07:06] <kernel_geek> Hi i try to compile a program (I already have build-essential installed), I get this error: test1.c:1:20: error:  stdio.h: No such file or directory
[07:06] <eck> setup needs a device and a partition, as in (hd0,2)
[07:06] <ikonia> kernel_geek you are missing the headers, or the program is lookingin the wrong place
[07:06] <ikonia> kernel_geek don't ask how to fix - you should know if you're building software
[07:06] <bullgard1> Ultra: I was speaking about 'installing'.
[07:07] <eck> djbrown: the setup command is how grub will know how to find your grub menu.lst file when you boot up the computer
[07:07] <kernel_geek> Ok thanks, how do I fix that then ?
[07:07] <ikonia> kernel_geek don't ask how to fix - you should know if you're building software
[07:07] <Ultra> bullgard1: just making sure, thanks
[07:07] <Pollywog> qebab I think you should clean up your exit message
[07:07] <qebab> does anyone know if I would make a mistake by trying to install ubuntu on my Lenovo ThinkPad Z61t?
[07:07] <kernel_geek> What specify at the gcc command ?
[07:07] <qebab> what did it say? :o
[07:07] <ikonia> kernel_geek don't ask how to fix - you should know if you're building software
[07:07] <kernel_geek> ok :D
[07:07] <Pollywog> qebab something about pa?
[07:07] <qebab> ah ok
[07:07] <dojo> how do i uphrade libfreetype6
[07:07] <qebab> that sounds about right
[07:07] <djbrown> eck: yeah, but i cant run it on that disk since it's called something else on the live cd
[07:07] <Pollywog> or it was someone with same name in that case I apologize
[07:07] <qebab> 5 years and I'm still not cured of that disease
[07:08] <ikonia> dojo see if there is an update in synaptic
[07:08] <Stormx2> What does everyone here use in the way of FTP clients?
[07:08] <djbrown> eck: like it should be setup (hd2,1) but the system only sees hd0 and 1
[07:08] <ikonia> Stormx2 "ftp"
[07:08] <kernel_geek> Well I can normally compile software but I thought I would give C ago. Is that such a crime. ??
[07:08] <ikonia> Stormx2 but ftp is weak
[07:08] <ikonia> kernel_geek don't ask how to fix - you should know if you're building software
[07:08] <kelsin> kernel_geek: "dpkg -l | grep libc6-dev" does that return anything?
[07:08] <ikonia> kernel_geek how is that giving C ago
[07:08] <Stormx2> ikonia: You type really quickly! How many wpm can you do?
[07:08] <eck> djbrown: i think you are confused, hd0 and hd1 are just names that grub gives to devices. the only thing you are really interested in are /dev device nodes
[07:08] <freddy13> hi ... i've got a hama s1 gaming mouse that i'd like to configure under gnome 2.16.1 to make the side buttons work. the wheel works fine as a button and wheel.... can anyone help me
[07:09] <kernel_geek> I am learning
[07:09] <ikonia> Stormx2 man ;)
[07:09] <ikonia> many
[07:09] <eck> djbrown: you map the hd* entries to devices in /dev and then grub figures out what bios devices they are associated with
[07:09] <Stormx2> not accurate tho, eh? ;)
[07:09] <kernel_geek> yup: ii  libc6-dev                              2.3.6-0ubuntu20.4       GNU C Library: Development Libraries and Header Files
[07:09] <ikonia> Stormx2 not on this laptop - stupid sticky keys
[07:09] <ikonia> and fat figners
[07:09] <qebab> Look guys, I'm considering to migrate to linux, but there are a couple of things I want to figure out first, and I couldn't find it in help.ubuntu.com
[07:09] <qebab> can someone try to answer a couple of questions for me?
[07:09] <Stormx2> qebab: Fire away
[07:10] <qebab> ok
[07:10] <eck> grub doesn't care if you call if hd0 or hd99, as long as you have it mapped to the correct device under /dev
[07:10] <freddy13> hi ... i've got a hama s1 gaming mouse that i'd like to configure under gnome 2.16.1 to make the side buttons work. the wheel works fine as a button and wheel.... can anyone help me
[07:10] <dojo> ikonia i checked in synaptic pakage manager but it didnt give me the choice to upgrade
[07:10] <ikonia> dojo then there is no upgrade available at the moment
[07:10] <kelsin> kernel_geek: and "ls /usr/include/stdio.h"?
[07:10] <qebab> first off, I couldn't find this specific laptop in the page of supported laptops, but an earlier model was in it with only a few problems
[07:10] <qebab> does that mean it will probably work well on this one too?
[07:10] <djbrown> eck: hrm.. ok
[07:10] <kernel_geek> yup its there
[07:10] <ikonia> qebab check the speific hardware for supportablity, eg the chipsets
[07:10] <dojo> im shure there is because when i click upgrade libcario it says?:
[07:10] <djbrown> eck: if that was the case it should have worked by default
[07:10] <dojo>  Depends: libfreetype6 (>=2.2) but 2.1.10-1ubuntu2.2 is to be installed
[07:11] <Stormx2> qebab: Make/model please
[07:11] <kelsin> kernel_geek: then what command are you running that shoorts the error? You have the file in the right place
[07:11] <qebab> IBM Lenovo ThinkPad Z61t
[07:40] (poningru/#ubuntu) Allen3373: do this 'lsusb -v'
[07:40] (poningru/#ubuntu) and find your usb card
[07:40] (yurimxpxma1/#ubuntu) Subhuman: I did that, but I couldn't figure out how to use it. Could you guide me through it please? :)
[07:40] (poningru/#ubuntu) then pastebin that
[07:40] (Allen3373/#ubuntu) poningru: um, where do I do that?

[07:41] <Subhuman> then select the partition type - select intel
[07:42] <yurimxpxma1> Subhuman: Ok, now choose Intel?
[07:42] <poningru> Allen3373: go to applications->accessories->terminal
[07:42] <wheels3572> poningru, what is the -rf commands for if I may ask?
[07:42] <yurimxpxma1> sry, this chat's going a little fast lol
[07:42] <Subhuman> yeah
[07:42] <poningru> wheels3572: recursive and force
[07:42] <Allen3373> poningru: ok, it's on the other side of the house. brb
[07:42] <riaal> please, how to make sur my hdd's mount when I reebot?
[07:42] <poningru> as in it doesnt ask you ever time
[07:42] <wheels3572> poningru, ty
[07:42] <yurimxpxma1> Subhuman: Now, do I want to analyse or what?
[07:42] <poningru> and recursive is to delete all the files under it
[07:42] <ekimus> !fstab
[07:42] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[07:42] <ekimus> riaal: ^^^
[07:42] <Subhuman> what are the options - a long time since i used testdisk...
[07:43] <garrido> kelsin, nope, didn't work :(
[07:43] <riaal> cheers ekimus
[07:43] <yurimxpxma1> Subhuman: Analyse, Advanced, Geometry, Options, MBR Code, Delete, Quit
[07:43] <garrido> kelsin, I have just updated to feisty, so I have a new kernel running - I'll try to reboot with the previous kernel and see how it goes
[07:43] <raven3x7> anyone know how i get back to gcj from sun-java?
[07:44] <poningru> raven3x7: use update-alternatives command
[07:44] <Subhuman> yurimxpxma1, its analyse
[07:44] <poningru> !update-alternatives | raven3x7
[07:44] <Subhuman> btw- anything it finds it will put in the current active directory
[07:44] <yurimxpxma1> Subhuman: Now just proceed?
[07:44] <kelsin> garrido: yeah past that I'm not a total expert on dpkg, so if the force remove command doesn't work I'm stumped, good luck
[07:44] <Subhuman> yep
[07:44] <raven3x7> poningru, but it doesnt find java-gcj
[07:45] <poningru> raven3x7: you are supposed to install that
[07:45] <poningru> first
[07:45] <Subhuman> it will take a while - get a coffee or read a book or something :)
[07:45] <garrido> kelsin, thnx, I'll come back to tell you how it goes...
[07:45] <raven3x7> poningru, i already have. ill do a reinstall and see what happens
[07:46] <poningru> raven3x7: no hold on
[07:46] <yurimxpxma1> Subhuman: I ran analyse once before today but couldn't figure out what to do after that. What do I do when this is done?
[07:46] <wheels3572> !format > wheels351972
[07:46] <wheels3572> !format
[07:46] <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
[07:46] <poningru> raven3x7: what command are you running for update-alternatives?
[07:46] <Subhuman> yurimxpxma1, in the folder u ran testdisk i think - there will be folders containing everything it found
[07:46] <Subhuman> if there wasnt then it means it didnt find anything
[07:46] <poningru> raven3x7: its supposed to be 'sudo update-alternatives java'
[07:47] <Subhuman> and btw-  i took a formatted disk to a pc guy and he got all the stuff that was orginally on there back
[07:47] <Subhuman> since formatting doesnt actually "erase" as your prob know.
[07:47] <poningru> right
[07:47] <yurimxpxma1> Subhuman: Isn't there supposed to be an option to revert to the original file system?
[07:47] <Subhuman> no - testdisk jsut looks for files that havent been erased yet and grabs that
[07:48] <Subhuman> it doesnt revert anything back - it merely gets files back from the grave if you will :)
[07:48] <yurimxpxma1> Subhuman: About a week ago, I tried this and it found his files, but it was making a LOT of files with random names.. mostly internet cache
[07:48] <yomm> nice , beryl works supersmooth on a i915 graphics chipset
[07:48] <Subhuman> oh no - it doesnt restore the filenames back
[07:48] <Subhuman> you have to just crawl through :/
[07:48] <Subhuman> i normallyt jus clip anything under 4k
[07:49] <Subhuman> and then spend a few hours looking through
[07:49] <poningru> yomm: funny thing it probably is crappier on nvidia and ati
[07:49] <yurimxpxma1> Subhuman: I can get to the place where it lets me browse the file structure.. can I copy the files from that somehow?
[07:49] <poningru> yomm: simply because intel opened up their drivers
[07:49] <raven3x7> poningru thanks
[07:49] <Subhuman> yurimxpxma1, in testdisk?
[07:49] <yurimxpxma1> Subhuman: yes

[07:55] <tonyyarusso> Okay, as we all know OpenOffice.org has some opening speed issues.  Gnumeric and Abiword are decent alternatives to the spreadsheet and wordprocessor, but what about Impress?  Is there a lighter replacement for slideshows/presentations?
[07:55] <poningru> raven3x7: yeah reinstall gcj

[07:57] <DisabledBobcat> Good afternoon everyone, I have a slight issue with my internet. I just updated Ubuntu and then my wireless stopped working. I used the lshw command to see if it was recognized still and it has the driver and all of that jazz but it says "network:1 DISABLED" like if you disabled it on a laptop. Can anyone assist me?
[07:57] <poningru> kleftisx: what does it say?
[07:58] <yurimxpxma1> kleftisx: It's supposed to do that. It asks you what OS you awnt.
[07:58] <yurimxpxma1> *want
[07:58] <kane77> kleftisx, what's wrong?
[07:58] <tonyyarusso> poningru: Looking into it...  Keep in mind this is for very non-tech-savvy folks, not myself (or I'd just do the HTML myself, ya)
[07:58] <poningru> oh
[07:58] <poningru> ...
[07:58] <Deevay> Hi everybody.. anyone here who might be able to help me get TVTime up and running??

[07:59] <tonyyarusso> poningru: Well, I'll keep this in mind for myself anyway - more ideas for them?
[07:59] <poningru> DisabledBobcat: make sure it actually isnt disabled with some outside switch or something
[07:59] <kane77> poningru, where do I put that <canvas> stuff? Into .html?
[07:59] <kleftisx> ponigru: its just says that grub works like a bash and TAB completes the command
[07:59] <vonk> hi all, i've got a question concerning mounting NTFS drives with write permissions
[07:59] <poningru> kane77: hehe its not that simple
[07:59] <kleftisx> poningru: its just says that grub works like a bash and TAB completes the command
[07:59] <poningru> kleftisx: oh shit yeah thats messed up
[07:59] <poningru> kleftisx: your install didnt finish
[07:59] <kane77> poningru, I've never heard of that.. going to google something up...
[07:59] <poningru> kleftisx: do you know what happened?
[08:00] <yurimxpxma1> kleftisx: 1) You don't need to repeat your questions. We got it the first time :) 2) Grub is just a bootloader. It asks you what OS to load. Is there a problem you're experiencing with it, or do you want it to go away, or what?
[08:00] <DisabledBobcat> poningru: there is no outside switch. it's a basic wireless card on my desktop pc.

[08:02] <statix> im so nervous
[08:02] <DisabledBobcat> poningru: I'm very new I dont know what that is. I just got ubuntu installed. then I updated and my wireless didnt work when I restarted. I dont really know a lot of linux commands or how to troubleshoot yet
[08:02] <statix> is there anything special I have to do to use a dual boot
[08:02] <jfanaian> Hi, I'm having a problem with ndiswrapper. I was following a guide to imrpove performance and got the kernel 2.6.20 installed, but then I noticed that my video card drivers aren't supported in 2.6.20 so I tried booting back on 2.6.17 and now I can't get an IP on my wireless. I am able to load it with ndiswrapper and I can also do "iwlist wlan0 scan" and it returns the network in the scan but...
[08:02] <jfanaian> ...I can't get an IP whatsoever.
[08:02] <statix> how do I repartition
[08:02] <kleftisx> poningru: any suggestions?? by the way...i install ubuntu as dual boot
[08:02] <poningru> DisabledBobcat: go to system->admin->network
[08:03] <poningru> kleftisx: since this is a new system I would say just go ahead and reinstall ubuntu
[08:03] <poningru> kleftisx: there are things you can do to fix this...
[08:03] <poningru> but... not worth the hassle
[08:03] <kleftisx> poningru: i have try twice...and i cant install it
[08:03] <DisabledBobcat> poningru: it lists it as a "Wired connection (wlan0)"
[08:04] <poningru> kleftisx: how are you installing it?
[08:04] <kleftisx> poningru: when im installing ubuntu it ask where to install the GRUB should i change it ?? (hd0)
[08:04] <poningru> Allen3373: still there?
[08:04] <poningru> kleftisx: are you using livecd or alternative?
[08:04] <kleftisx> poningru: livecd
[08:05] <poningru> and just letting the partition manager do all the work right? with dual boot you are just using the slide right?
[08:05] <poningru> or are you going into the nitty gritty?
[08:05] <poningru> as in using the partition manager
[08:05] <kleftisx> poningru: r u talking to me? :O
[08:05] <poningru> kleftisx: yes

[08:06] <kleftisx> yes
[08:07] <Purple> goodness, i'm gone !
[08:07] <poningru> kleftisx: how are you doing that? are you using the slide thing that shows up? or are you doing manual partitioning?
[08:07] <kleftisx> poningru : manual
[08:07] <cjvail13> hi can anyone help me with my screen. it's cut off on the righthand side

[08:10] <babo> poningru: It's asking me for a password file. how do I know which password file it's using ?
[08:10] <Allen3373> poningru: NOw, when I boot up, it does the ubuntu loading screen, then the screen goes black, and my monitor says no input. It was working fine least night.

[08:16] <comoddor1> ok
[08:16] <humbolto> I am having trouble with my nvidia card. It seems it does not do any direct rendering eventhough glxinfo tells me it does. Every time I start a GL app, CPU utilisation goes up to 100%
[08:16] <cefx_> godsyn: nope.
[08:16] <cefx_> ssh does not work
[08:16] <riaal> is "fsck" like scandisk?
[08:16] <leafw> the rythmbox, what is the command line program that runs it? It's not rythmbox
[08:16] <humbolto> even with billiard-gl or gltron
[08:16] <cefx_> neither does alt+f1 stuff
[08:16] <djbrown> anyone in here good with grub and sata disks
[08:16] <godsyn> cefx  : because 3d in linux is a pita. :)

[08:18] <gdi2k> greetings. I have NetworkManager installed and working. However, resolv.conf is populated only with my router's IP as nameservers, which doesn't work. I can modify it manually, but then it gets overwritten next time NetworkManager starts. How can I stop this happening?
[08:19] <gbellmann> commoddor1: ubotu is a bot...
[08:19] <yurimxpxman> dtolj: What package specifically do I need?
[08:19] <comoddor1> gbell
[08:19] <comoddor1> can you help pliz?
[08:19] <DisabledBobcat> Can anyone help me with a wirless card issue?
[08:19] <gbellmann> comoddor1: what do you need?
[08:19] <comoddor1> i need to know if there is any way i can install 3d desktop in my ubuntu 6.10 with nvidia fx5700le
[08:19] <xscfg>  anyone know a link to a repo i can browse?
[08:19] <Heavenquake> I've done this tutorial: http://patrick.vande-walle.eu/software/intersil-isl3886-linux/ but still my wireless card won't work

[08:20] <cjvail13> thanks guys my screen is fixed
[08:20] <cefx_> I'm at the grub config screen, I don't want to edit it without being certain of what/how I edit it.
[08:20] <dtolj> yurimxpxman: try dev86-devel
[08:20] <riaal> No major worries in this line for fstab:      /dev/sdb1       /media/sata1    ext3    defaults        0       1    ?

[08:21] <gbellmann> comoddor1: don't know really, i can't make it work with my two 7600gs in sli mode
[08:21] <Anohaakten> hey can I get some help on my card?
[08:21] <comoddor1> ok
[08:21] <cjvail13> are there any good books or websites that will teach me how to use ubuntu to the fullest
[08:21] <comoddor1> thanks
[08:21] <cefx_> ekimus: What line do I edit, and does it matter where I put it?
[08:21] <Anohaakten> my wireless card is not working
[08:21] <godsyn> Anohaakten : what "card"?
[08:21] <cefx_> I do not want to risk anything more, this is an important box.
[08:21] <godsyn> ah.
[08:21] <ompaul> comoddor1, the fastest way to not get help is not to say the full details and second to ask someone directly let people reply to you
[08:21] <cefx_> I thought updating a driver was -safe-.
[08:21] <Anohaakten> I have a wpc54g
[08:21] <Anohaakten> linksys
[08:21] <GaiaX11> cjvail13: Lots!
[08:22] <Heavenquake> ompaul: now, the only stuff I find there, is more or less the same as in the tutorial I linked to. But it does not work.
[08:22] <Anohaakten> I have tried installing fwcutter
[08:22] <Anohaakten> the damn thing doesnt install
[08:22] <billymeter> Does anyone use the Firefox extension AllPeers, and if so, how is it?
[08:22] <cjvail13> GaiaX11: show me please
[08:22] <Anohaakten> and I have no idea how to run it, so I can run wl_opsta.o
[08:22] <gbellmann> my ubuntu live cd does not run X, need help!!
[08:23] <Tibmol> how can i open rar files ?
[08:23] <tonyyarusso> !rar | Tibmol
[08:23] <ubotu> Tibmol: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[08:23] <vonk> i have a mounting problem, can't find answers in the faqs....
[08:23] <ompaul> Heavenquake, I sat here one day and walked a person through each step cut and pasted from it - then it worked after them saying it did not - the problem usually is that you miss one step please try again seriously, also I don't do wireless
[08:23] <danshtr> Hi all, how can I scan for wireless network?
[08:23] <teitunge_> vonk - whats seems to be the problem?
[08:23] <cefx_> Do I want to try recovery mode or...?
[08:23] <yurimxpxman> gcc still can't find conio
[08:23] <teitunge_> danshtr - sudo iwlist scan
[08:23] <Heavenquake> ompaul: I doublechecked three times, read through a couple more, and did the tut all over again, just to be sure.
[08:23] <ompaul> !bootoptions > gbellmann (please check the message from the bot)
[08:24] <teitunge_> danshtr - sudo apt-get install swscanner - then launch it as root
[08:24] <vonk> teitunge_  i have a second HDD in my pc, i got from a friend who put with XP some stuff on for me
[08:24] <Anohaakten> does anyone know anything about wireless cards here?
[08:24] <Anohaakten> how better yet, how to install fwcutter
[08:24] <ompaul> Heavenquake, does it work with that closed source semi popular o/s?
[08:24] <teitunge_> vonk - sudo fdisk -l    what does that say?
[08:24] <cefx_> let's hope ekimus was right
[08:24] <Heavenquake> ompaul: it does.
[08:24] <dtolj> Tibmol: free rar is a bit limited try the binary from 1,3,5,6,7,8,9,10] -
[08:24] <dtolj> [#ubuntu]  Tibmol: free rar is a bit limited try the binary from
[08:25] <danshtr> thanks all
[08:25] <GaiaX11> cjvail13: click in System > Help     and you will find lots of docs   :-)
[08:25] <cefx_> ekimus: it's still booting X.  What line do I put that command at?
[08:25] <dtolj> Tibmol: rarlab.com
[08:25] <vonk> teitunge_ this is the drive i need : /dev/hdb1               1        9964    80035798+  42  SFS
[08:25] <cjvail13> thanks
[08:25] <danshtr> my wireless cards looks like eth1
[08:25] <xscfg> GaiaX11: the link doesn't contain any packages.
[08:25] <godsyn> ack, the dreaded SFS
[08:25] <danshtr> shouldn't it be wlan0?
[08:25] <teitunge_> danshtr - yes, that sounds reasonable..
[08:25] <cefx_> Hello? can someone help me or what?
[08:25] <ompaul> Heavenquake, so then you can try that ndswrapper option cos it will work if you have the driver - it may be a little flakey but hey some bandwidth is better than none unless you got wired
[08:25] <cefx_> my monitor just dropped the video
[08:25] <Pollywog> is there a way to make Gnome menus see hidden directories?  I want to enable a wallpaper that is in ~/.wallpaper
[08:25] <teitunge_> danshtr - are you trying to connect an encrypted network?
[08:25] <Tibmol> what dows this mean ? ERROR: Unknown option: idp (when i try to extract rar files....)
[08:25] <vonk> godsyn you knwo of this prob?
[08:25] <danshtr> no
[08:25] <Tibmol> !idp
[08:25] <danshtr> i am already connected
[08:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about idp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:26] <teitunge_> Pollywog - In nautilus press Ctrl+H
[08:26] <danshtr> just wondering about ubuntu
[08:26] <Pollywog> teitunge_: ty
[08:26] <teitunge_> danshtr - ah, I see
[08:26] <cefx_> I can't get into a bash shell to edit the xorg.conf WHERE in the grub file am I supposed to put this init=/bin/bash ?
[08:26] <teitunge_> Pollywog - No problem :-)
[08:26] <godsyn> vonk : I know that i'm still unable to mount the SFS drive, regardless of mount options, using ntfs-3g.
[08:26] <Heavenquake> ompaul: actually, I've done the ndiswrapper. It says in ndiswrapper -l that it works. It says in lshw that it works. But it simply does not.
[08:26] <godsyn> vonk : but my knowledge is limited.
[08:26] <DisabledBobcat> How can I set Ubuntu to use kernel 2.6.10?
[08:27] <Chamuco> hi
[08:27] <cefx_> I can't get into a bash shell to edit the xorg.conf WHERE in the grub file am I supposed to put this init=/bin/bash ?
[08:27] <ompaul> Heavenquake, then what you need is a local GNU/Linux support jockey - cos IRC is not going to fix something like that 999/1000
[08:27] <gbellmann> ompaul: the livecd runs, but it goes blank after choosing start or install..
[08:27] <teitunge_> DisabledBobcat - Meaning, degrading your kernel?
[08:27] <GaiaX11> xscfg: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy
[08:27] <slippyr4> !howdy : chamuco
[08:27] <marx2k> cefx: thats not in my menu.lst
[08:27] <vonk> godsyn .. i'm sure you'll know more of it then I do
[08:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about howdy : chamuco - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:27] <vonk> godsyn tried also about everything
[08:27] <cefx_> ...marx?
[08:27] <dtolj> cefx_: grub file? are you working on bool loader?
[08:27] <cefx_> I need to get into a shell environment so yes
[08:27] <vonk> diskmounter doesn't recognize the drive..
[08:27] <danshtr> is there a gnome frontend to iw*?
[08:27] <cefx_> I am working on the boot loader
[08:27] <DisabledBobcat> teitunge_: I suppose, I had a problem with my wireless and people on the forum solved it by downgrading. Mine worked before upgrading as well so I wanted to try
[08:28] <dtolj> cefx_: boot
[08:28] <Anohaakten> can someone help me on installing fwcutter?
[08:28] <cefx_> ... boot init=/bin/bash ?
[08:28] <cefx_> that line?
[08:28] <vonk> manual mount of via fstab doesn't seem to wordk
[08:28] <marx2k> oh I thought you meant where in /boot/grub/menu.lst is the term 'init=/bin/bash'
[08:28] <teitunge_> DisabledBobcat - www.ubuntuforums.org - I am sure you will find an answer there. Just search for a good keyword.
[08:28] <cefx_> no, marx.
[08:28] <DisabledBobcat> thanks
[08:28] <teitunge_> Sorry, I dont have an answer
[08:28] <AzraelM> hey
[08:28] <cefx_> in my grub conf file.
[08:28] <dtolj> cefx_: ic you can do it from the boot menu, just press edit
[08:28] <Heavenquake> ompaul: damn, I'm screwed then. Since I've been to two national linux-cons, where about fifteen people all in all, during the days, tried and make it work. But everything simply failed.
[08:28] <dtolj> cefx_: no need to edit any files
[08:28] <AzraelM> I got a problem with admin rights, who can I ask for help?
[08:28] <gbellmann> ompaul: the livecd runs, but it goes blank after choosing start or install..
[08:29] <slippyr4> cefx_ : exactly *why* do you want to init with bash?
[08:29] <gbellmann> AzraelM: what is the problem?
[08:29] <ompaul> Heavenquake, there is another option, get a card and stick it in a pcmcia slot or some such - but check that it is supported first
[08:29] <dtolj> cefx_: you are trying to boot into bash instead of X right?
[08:29] <airhead> AzraelM - Just put your question here, and I am sure someone can solve it :-)
[08:29] <godsyn> vonk : try mounting it as a ntfs drive?
[08:30] <AzraelM> gbellmann> I want to unpack something into /opt but it says access denied, I am using the first account I created (the only one), so I have admin rights, but I cannot seem to unpack anything in there.
[08:30] <Chamuco> I am trying to extract a rar file with file-roller or xarchive o xarchiver and cant says the extensions were not found how do I install the extensions
[08:30] <Chamuco> for rar
[08:30] <cefx_> i just got in via ssh
[08:30] <marx2k> Azrael: use sudo
[08:30] <gbellmann> AzraelM: use "sudo"
[08:30] <billymeter> AzraelM: You need root privs to do that, so use sudo
[08:30] <cefx_> slippyr4: Because X has exploded, that's why, and the nVidia install help guide is retarded.
[08:30] <AzraelM> can you please be more specific?
[08:30] <marx2k> !sudo
[08:30] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[08:30] <cefx_> dtolj: thanks a bunch dude, I just logged in via ssh
[08:30] <airhead> Chamuco - sudo apt-get install unrar - then just unrar <filename>
[08:31] <Chamuco> TY
[08:31] <dtolj> cefx_: that will do
[08:31] <gbellmann> AzraelM: use "sudo command" eg.: sudo reboot
[08:31] <Heavenquake> ompaul: A friend of mine will hand over a tested (as in: working) USB-adaptor, during this week. But I really would have liked the builtin hardware to work. But well, can't have it all I guess
[08:31] <slippyr4> cefx_: if you just want to boot without X temporarily to fix something, follow this guide: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/grub-boot-into-single-user-mode/
[08:31] <AzraelM> Ok, I'll read it :) thanks
[08:31] <billymeter> AzraelM: Try your unpack command that you were using, just put "sudo" in front of all of it
[08:31] <billymeter> AzraelM: and type in your password when it prompts you
[08:31] <mtc> hello all
[08:32] <airhead> hola mtc
[08:32] <billymeter> !hi
[08:32] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[08:32] <AzraelM> Should I use Sudo to extract the program then?
[08:32] <cefx_> whew
[08:32] <AzraelM> cause the documentation tells me to use SU
[08:32] <gbellmann> azraelm: yes
[08:32] <cefx_> I hope this works lol
[08:32] <billymeter> AzraelM: What type of package is it?
[08:32] <airhead> AzraelM - what kind of file are you trying to extract?
[08:33] <ompaul> Heavenquake, please be careful when buying your next hardware - remember the manafacturer has a choice to lock you out or include your favorite platform and you can tell the retailer cos they get enough ear bashing then they may respond
[08:33] <mtc> I have a dvd with live concert & I would like to extract the songs
[08:33] <AzraelM> .tar.gz
[08:33] <airhead> for example - sudo tar xzvf <filename>
[08:33] <marx2k> AzraelM, use sudo
[08:33] <mtc> into ogg or mp3
[08:33] <godsyn> AzraelM : what are you installing?
[08:33] <AzraelM> XAMPP
[08:33] <mtc> is the a program that can do that job?
[08:33] <billymeter> AzraelM: yeah type sudo tar -xvfz package.tar.gz
[08:33] <cefx_> AzraelM: sudo -i
[08:33] <tonyyarusso> Is it possible to use apt-cache to show dependencies recursively?  (ie, include dependencies of dependencies for a package)
[08:33] <marx2k> 'man sudo'
[08:33] <godsyn> AzraelM : apt-get install xampp ?
[08:34] <ompaul> tonyyarusso, would you use apt-cache show for that I might ;-)
[08:34] <godsyn> nm
[08:34] <godsyn> not in the repos.
[08:34] <mtc> is there a programm that can extract the audio from a dvd?
[08:34] <billymeter> AzraelM: Yeah that program might be in the repos already, so try searching for it. Click Applications -> Add/Remove
[08:34] <slippyr4> cefx_ or you could boot the "recovery mode" kernel - i think this dumps you into bash as root
[08:35] <airhead> mtc - have you tried to record the output of your computer while playing it? I cant think of a program which rips only audio from dvds
[08:35] <cefx_> ok
[08:35] <godsyn> billymeter : just checked, isn't.
[08:35] <billymeter> godsyn: Oh, =\
[08:35] <AzraelM> I tried sudo tar xvfz /home/laino/Desktop/xampp-linux-1.6.tar.gz' but now it's just there
[08:35] <Heavenquake> ompaul: I learned a lesson yes. I think I'll stick with IBM/Lenovo in the future.. Perhaps DELL.  -- This laptop is one I bought before I became serious with GNU/Linux, so at that time, I didn't bother much.
[08:35] <cjvail13> its me again how do i change my screen resoultion
[08:35] <AzraelM> the prompt changed from laino@laino-desktop:~$  to just ">"
[08:35] <airhead> AzraelM - have you tried to use root-nautilus?
[08:35] <mtc> airhead, I thought there will be a better solution then recording from the output
[08:35] <ompaul> Heavenquake, what make and model?
[08:36] <mtc> airhead, but thx
[08:36] <AzraelM> root-nautilus?
[08:36] <airhead> mtc - hopefully :-) but that was the only thing I could think of
[08:36] <mtc> airhead, it's not bad at least a solution :-)
[08:36] <airhead> AzraelM  - yes, its some kind of extention. I dont remember how to install it, but try to google it..
[08:36] <airhead> mtc - :)
[08:36] <AzraelM> But how about the administrative rights? Apparently I should be able to do it, should I not?
[08:36] <AzraelM> and why did the prompt change to ">" ?
[08:37] <Heavenquake> ompaul: This is a Fujitsu Siemens. Almost everything is wrong with this one. And durability is nonexistant.
[08:37] <billymeter> AzraelM: Open a terminal and type "sudo file-roller" and that will open package manager as root. You should be able to use the GUI to extract the package into /opt
[08:37] <airhead> billymeter - good idea! :-)
[08:37] <billymeter> airhead: =)
[08:38] <mtc> bye
[08:38] <airhead> take care
[08:38] <godsyn> best cli file manager?
[08:38] <mtc> airhead, u too
[08:38] <cefx_> god
[08:38] <cefx_> so close
[08:38] <ompaul> Heavenquake, l
[08:38] <ompaul> Heavenquake, oka
[08:38] <ekimus> cefx_: when you are booting hit esc edit the entry you want to boot and add it to the line that starts with kernel (this is a one time change, next time you boot it will be gone) - had a timeout sorry
[08:39] <marx2k> you want to do "sudo tar -xvvzf <filename>.tar.gz /directory/to/extract/to"
[08:39] <sputnik2012> hi all. how do I find the sound devices being used (under /dev)?
[08:39] <marx2k> I think
[08:40] <airhead> sputnik2012 - uhm, come again?
[08:40] <AzraelM> it's working!
[08:40] <billymeter> AzraelM: Good job!
[08:40] <AzraelM> Thanks a lot to all of you ;)
[08:40] <airhead> :)
[08:40] <marx2k> sputnik2012,  cat /dev/sndstat
[08:40] <cefx> holy crap
[08:40] <billymeter> AzraelM: No problem.
[08:40] <sputnik2012> thanks marx2k.
[08:40] <AzraelM> glad to see I have someone to go to when having a problem, really enjoying Ubuntu :D
[08:40] <godsyn> recmmonebdations for a CLI file manager, anyone?
[08:40] <humbolto> when direct rendering is enabled, shouldn't the cpu usage stay normal when a gl app is running?
[08:41] <toptnc> hi all
[08:41] <marx2k> Godsyn, midnight commander
[08:41] <airhead> By the way, does anyone know how I could disable my internal soundcard, and just use my external USB-device?
[08:41] <toptnc> i have an strange problem with gtk1.2 apps
[08:41] <sputnik2012> I want to see what devices under /dev are being used though.
[08:41] <flo_> how can i reconfigure xserver? i'vd tried xorgcfg xorgconfig but i get a comand not found , i'vd installd a text only system and then the xwindow system package
[08:41] <Quattro> hi all
[08:41] <sputnik2012> Xorg --config flo_
[08:41] <toptnc> i have two machines with ubuntu edgy, in one of them, the gtk1.2 apps looks well
[08:41] <flo_> thx
[08:41] <toptnc> in the other machine, with the same gtk configuration the fonts looks too big
[08:42] <airhead> flo_ - dpkg-reconfigure xorg-server
[08:42] <marx2k> sputnik2012, is it in /dev/snd maybe?
[08:43] <AzraelM> one more question
[08:43] <AzraelM> I've unpackaged it into /opt
[08:43] <AzraelM> now I got to start it
[08:43] <AzraelM> I use "/opt/lampp/lampp start"
[08:43] <AzraelM> but it says I need to start it as root, how do I do it?
[08:43] <airhead> sudo again
[08:43] <airhead> :)
[08:43] <marx2k> Azoff, use sudo
[08:43] <AzraelM> also with sudo? like in "sudo /opt/lampp/lampp start" ?
[08:43] <marx2k> right
[08:43] <airhead> correct
[08:43] <airhead> you are learning fast ;)
[08:44] <marx2k> any time you need root priv to do something, use sudo
[08:44] <AzraelM> thank you! :) it's working
[08:44] <AzraelM> ok, got it
[08:44] <AzraelM> what's "su" then?
[08:44] <airhead> superuser, same thing
[08:44] <airhead> sudo su -
[08:44] <marx2k> 'su' is for other systems that allow you to run BASH as root
[08:44] <AzraelM> got it, thanks :)
[08:44] <NeMoo> switch user
[08:44] <marx2k> Ubuntu prefers sudo
[08:44] <marx2k> more secure :)
[08:44] <airhead> then you could login as superuser, and won't have to use the sudo-cmd each time you are doing something as root
[08:45] <djbrown> i am having problems with grub after a default install of ubuntu... getting error 17 from grub..
[08:45] <marx2k> I think 'sudo -l' does the same thing
[08:45] <airhead> marx2k - that is correct
[08:45] <RainCT> Hi, anybody knows why update-manager isn't recognitzing my password after today's update on Feisty Fawn? or should I open a bug?
[08:45] <omegabeta> Question : I am having some issues getting sound to work in the framebuffer (no X) I have tryed alsamixer etc and still no luck.. any ideas?
[08:45] <marx2k> djbrown, your menu.lst file is messed up... you need to change around the hard drive that the linux install is sitting oin
[08:45] <marx2k> Im guessing youre dual booting
[08:46] <gbellmann> how can i install ubuntu from the console
[08:46] <KnowledgEngi> hello
[08:46] <KnowledgEngi> how can i convert an APE to MP3 ??
[08:46] <airhead> gbellmann - the desktop, or the entire system?
[08:46] <djbrown> marx2k: yes.. but couldnt error 17 also mean that it cant find the boot disk to read off
[08:46] <babo> I've written an application, with some GPL classes in it. Do you think it's worth my while rewriting all the GPL code ?
[08:46] <airhead> KnowledgEngi - google "convert APE to mp3"
[08:46] <airhead> sure you would find an answer
[08:46] <tonyyarusso> !alternate | gbellmann
[08:47] <ubotu> gbellmann: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.
[08:47] <marx2k> djbrown, if you're getting the grub menu, youre finding the boot disk
[08:47] <bk> Hi. I am new to ubuntu and would like help on setting up EPSON CX1500 scanner.
[08:47] <djbrown> marx2k: im not getting the  menu
[08:47] <gbellmann> airhead: the problem is that i can't run the x from the livecd
[08:47] <marx2k> Oh!
[08:47] <marx2k> Hmmmm
[08:47] <AzraelM> thanks guys, I'm off :)
[08:47] <jake333> :-D
[08:47] <AzraelM> see ya!
[08:47] <chris> dtolj: i want to have a dos bootdisk to test certain programs
[08:47] <AzraelM> oh, before I go, any recommendation on a good music software? (i.e. something like Winamp)
[08:47] <marx2k> then Ubuntu didnt install grub to the correct disk :/ I would use one of the many grub recovery methods using the Ubuntu LiveCD
[08:48] <djbrown> marx2k: like what
[08:48] <airhead> AzraelM - exaile, amarok, rhythmbox
[08:48] <airhead> I prefer exaile
[08:48] <|1915|> Is there somewhere I can read about how to update from dapper to feisty?
[08:48] <AzraelM> ok, I'll try it, thanks :)
[08:48] <djbrown> marx2k: been trying to get it working manually from grub for hours now
[08:48] <airhead> wait
[08:48] <airhead> if you wanted something that looks like winamp, use xmms
[08:48] <AzraelM> I want something good
[08:48] <bk> can someone pleasehelp with installation of EPSON CX1500 as a scanner?
[08:48] <airhead> those I recommended looks more like iTunes
[08:48] <djbrown> marx2k: the problem seem to be that the sata disks that the system resides on get's detected in ubuntu on a device that is not correct at boot up
[08:49] <bk> can someone pleasehelp with installation of EPSON CX1500 as a scanner?
[08:49] <airhead> bk - have you searched the forums? www.ubuntuforums.com - just search for the scanner name, and maybe someone already wrote a how:to on that?

[08:49] <raven3x7> ok i just have to say the azureus pcage sucks

[08:49] <airhead> raven3x7 - agreed
[08:50] <djbrown> marx2k: i havent actually changed anything... this is out of the box default install
[08:50] <marx2k> Theres a really easy way of doing it with the Grub Rescue CD
[08:50] <meezyfuh> hey. i am trying to use bittorrent and anytime i try to d/l more than one torrent at a time it says something about 'something in use'?? help!
[08:50] <meezyfuh> it says port in use!
[08:50] <djbrown> marx2k: after copying the files and rebooting to set it up i get error 17
[08:50] <raven3x7> meezyfuh, what application are you using?
[08:50] <Doa`> don't know
[08:51] <meezyfuh> raven3x7:  whatever the default is for ubuntu. bittorrent i guess?
[08:51] <marx2k> djbrown: look at http://supergrub.forjamari.linex.org/
[08:52] <raven3x7> i'd suggest you install sun-java and get azureus from azureus.sf.net
[08:52] <yell0w> hey guys
[08:52] <meezyfuh> raven3x7: this client is no good?
[08:52] <yell0w> hey guys, how come i cannot remove gnome-games ?
[08:53] <raven3x7> meezyfuh, in my experience no. others might disagree
[08:53] <excelsior> Hello, I'm looking for a bash scripter, I can't manage to do a string comparison
[08:53] <meezyfuh> raven3x7: thank you very much!!
[08:53] <tonyyarusso> excelsior: #bash might help
[08:53] <excelsior> erf
[08:53] <|1915|> what is the difference between sudo and gksudo ?
[08:54] <excelsior> didn't knew that chan exist, thx, and sorry
[08:54] <yell0w> hey guys, how come i cannot remove gnome-games ? has anyone tried this ? I tried but ubuntu-desktop metapackage would be also removed, which is not what i want .  any ideas ?
[08:54] <KnowledgEngi> how can i convert an APE to MP3 ??
[08:54] <marx2k> 1915, gksudo is for gnome apps
[08:54] <marx2k> like gedit
[08:54] <|1915|> ok.
[08:54] <raven3x7> meezyfuh, theres instructions for installing java at wiki.ubuntu.org . for the zureus package just read the readme inside
[08:54] <KnowledgEngi> !ape to mp3
[08:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ape to mp3 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:55] <ardchoille> yell0w: It's only a meta package, it's safe to remove
[08:55] <gbellmann> can't install ubuntu!! help!!
[08:55] <marx2k> yell0w you shouldnt have a problem removing the metapakage
[08:55] <yell0w> ardchoille, uhm wouldn't that remove my desktop environment ?
[08:55] <marx2k> no
[08:55] <raven3x7> gbellmann, what seems to be the problem?
[08:55] <EdgEy> yell0w, it means the desktop environment would not be complete, because ubuntu-desktop includes gnome-games
[08:55] <EdgEy> yell0w, every other part of ubuntu-desktop will stay
[08:55] <Pollywog> is it possible to remove gnome-games and not remove gnome or gnome-desktop?
[08:55] <ardchoille> yell0w: No. the meta package oonly exists to pull in all deps for the desktop. after that, it isn't needed.
[08:56] <gbellmann> raven3x7: i run the livecd, choose install, it starts loading and then goes blank
[08:56] <meezyfuh> hey, what can i install so i can unrar files?
[08:56] <marx2k> meezy: rar
[08:56] <Pollywog> the unrar package
[08:56] <meezyfuh> thx!
[08:56] <dimitri> hey, I just downloaded and installed docker from the repos, does anyone know how to start it?
[08:56] <meezyfuh> bai.
[08:57] <marx2k> docker?
[08:57] <Goliath23> hi, any suggestions on how to boost the 2d-performance of the xserver when resizing/moving windows? I use the latest beta driver for my nvidia 6800 LE, 3d works fine.
[08:57] <AlteredBeast> when the liveCD boots on an old dell laptop the screen is partitioned (and strangely repeated) into about 1/3s
[08:57] <|1915|> I'm updating from dapper to edgy now. I replaced "dapper" to "edgy" in sources.list and I'm going to do apt-get update/upgrade. Do i have anything to worry about ?
[08:57] <AlteredBeast> it is fairly impossible to see anything
[08:57] <rude_CE> I have the CD for ubuntu 5.10 install, but I want to know if after I install I could make a upgrade to ubuntu 6.06 by downloading packages
[08:57] <AlteredBeast> any quick fixes?
[08:57] <yell0w> ardchoille, EdgEy , marx2k http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8816/ <<< should i say yes and go with it ?
[08:57] <raven3x7> gbellmann, you could use the text install cd. the livecd never worked for me. you hav an ati card?
[08:58] <Pollywog> 1915: yes backup your important data
[08:58] <gbellmann> raven3x7: nvidia sli cards
[08:58] <ompaul> rude_CE, you can, do that install and come back to us as soon as you do and the instuctions shall be yours
[08:58] <ompaul> rude_CE, Do not customise it
[08:58] <yell0w> ardchoille, EdgEy , marx2k i don't want to downgrade, just remove it completely
[08:58] <raven3x7> gbellmann, weird.  It goes blanck during boot or when you start the install app?
[08:59] <marx2k> yell0w try downgrading first then remove
[08:59] <Pollywog> I upgraded 2 times and broke my system, so I installed a third time from an Edgy iso and almost broke it again
[08:59] <ardchoille> yell0w: What command did you use?
[08:59] <|1915|> Pollywog: I have... at the same time, if the server "dies" i have to pay good money to get it fixed as i dont have physical access
[08:59] <rude_CE> [ompaul] : ok . I make it
[08:59] <yell0w> ardchoille, sudo aptitude remove gnome-games
[08:59] <|1915|> Pollywog: What if i only update individual packages
[08:59] <|1915|> ?
[08:59] <ardchoille> yell0w: Try: sudo aptitude remove ubuntu-desktop gnome-games
[08:59] <ernz> Hi, does someone know of a way I can rotate my ubuntu desktop wallpapers?
[08:59] <rude_CE> [ompaul] : ok . I'll make it
[08:59] <gbellmann> raven3x7: during boot, it even plays sounds with the blank screen
[09:00] <Pollywog> 1915 you just need to be careful when you reboot after you finish
[09:00] <ompaul> rude_CE, fine
[09:00] <jbinder> hi
[09:00] <jbinder> hi
[09:00] <|1915|> Pollywog: Oh, i never reboot :) have an uptime for over 100 days
[09:00] <Pollywog> 1915 I did not have a problem until I rebooted to the newer kernel
[09:01] <yell0w> ardchoille, it works, thanks
[09:01] <AlteredBeast> looks to have this:
[09:01] <ardchoille> yell0w: You're welcome :)
[09:01] <AlteredBeast> ATI Mobility M4 graphics chip with 16MB of SGRAM
[09:01] <Pollywog> because something in the installer fouled up fstab
[09:01] <AlteredBeast> anyone?
[09:01] <yell0w> ardchoille, that is strange, what is that ubuntu-desktop there for then ?
[09:01] <dyrne> ernz: gimp?
[09:01] <|1915|> Pollywog: I wont reboot then..
[09:01] <ernz> dyrne?
[09:01] <raven3x7> gbellmann, looks like the 2d nv driver might not like your sli setup.
[09:01] <slippyr4> anyone care to give me a starting point for how to get my laptops built in memory stick reader to work?
[09:01] <marx2k> AlteredBeast, whats your question
[09:01] <Pollywog> when you do reboot make sure you have a GRUB boot CD
[09:01] <steel_lady> HEEEEEEEEELLLLPPP. I lost my work because of a power down!!! Does linux write temp files somewhere???
[09:02] <ernz> dyrne: I want to automatically, routinely change my Desktop wallpaper to one of hundreds randomly that I have in a folder
[09:02] <ardchoille> yell0w: Say you had KDE installed and you wanted to install the entire gnome desktop. Instead of aptitude install app1 app2 app3 app4, and so on, you only need to aptitude install ubuntu-desktop and that meta package would pull in all apps and deps for you.
[09:02] <AlteredBeast> when the liveCD boots on an old dell laptop the screen is partitioned (and strangely repeated) into about 1/3s
[09:02] <raven3x7> gbellmann, you could try to disable 1 card from the bios. install ubuntu, install nvidia binary drivers and then reenable it
[09:02] <gbellmann> raven3x7: can i run the installation from the console with the livecd or do i have to download another iso?
[09:02] <yell0w> ardchoille, oh ok, so after that ubuntu-desktop is useless ?
[09:02] <yell0w> ardchoille, and you can just remove it without breaking anything ?
[09:02] <ompaul> steel_lady, and how pray tell does it write with no power?
[09:03] <ardchoille> yell0w: Pretty much. You should re-install it, though, if you plan to upgrade vie the package manager
[09:03] <ardchoille> yell0w: yes
[09:03] <AlteredBeast> it is impossible to see any menus
[09:03] <yell0w> ardchoille, uhm what do you mean upgrade via pakage manager ?
[09:03] <Pollywog> steel_lady: that happened to me but I did not lose an email I had been composing in kmail, so some apps have some sort of buffer
[09:03] <an0k> join /#ubuntu-effects
[09:03] <AlteredBeast> trying to install now, but even that is hard
[09:03] <steel_lady> ompaul it has to write temp files with the things that I have written but not saved before!!!
[09:03] <yell0w> ardchoille, are you saying aptitude upgrade upgrade-dist won't work anymore ?
[09:03] <yell0w> @_@
[09:03] <gbellmann> raven3x7: ok, i'll try that. thanks
[09:04] <raven3x7> gbellman  if you have the cd you have to download the alternative install cd.  the dvd has both
[09:04] <ardchoille> yell0w: Upgrade from, for instance, Dapper to Edgy using apt-get dist-upgrade after editing the sources.list.
[09:04] <dyrne> ernz: sorry i dont really use gnome. http://www.molenda.com/makethumbs/old-releases/rotate.sh-1.14 is a script but..
[09:04] <Pollywog> I upgraded 2is gnome-games a required package for gnome?
[09:04] <gbellmann> raven3x7: thanks
[09:04] <Pollywog> is gnome-games a required package for gnome?
[09:04] <ardchoille> yell0w: It will work, but you would need to edit the sources.. change "dapper" to "edgy" in the list, then do the upgrade.
[09:04] <ompaul> steel_lady, ehh no it could live in ram - if the applicaiton did any work it might just might be in /tmp but who knows what it looks like there
[09:04] <raven3x7> gbellmann,  np hope that helps
[09:05] <yell0w> ardchoille, oh, i'm not gonna do that , will do fresh install if i want to upgrade the version
[09:05] <ernz> dyrne: ...but? :)
[09:05] <steel_lady> ompaul please help me I didn't go to sleep 2 days working!!!
[09:05] <D7> how do I get mp3 support for rhythmbox?
[09:05] <ardchoille> yell0w: Fresh installs are what I do, they're faster and less problematic.
[09:06] <yell0w> ardchoille, regular updates for bug fix and the likes would still be availabe via aptitude upgrade and  aptitude upgrade-dist right ?
[09:06] <Pollywog> ardchoille: got that right :)
[09:06] <ardchoille> yell0w: Yes
[09:06] <ompaul> steel_lady, I just said look in /tmp after that you have to hope that the application has a "memory" of something but in most cases it won't
[09:06] <ardchoille> Pollywog: :)
[09:06] <yell0w> ardchoille, thanks, that's what i worrry about just a while ago
[09:06] <kingace> is there anyway to copy an image directly from firefox to openoffice?
[09:06] <yell0w> when you said no more upgrade
[09:06] <yell0w> lol
[09:06] <ardchoille> Pollywog: Your nick? You haven't crossed the equator yet?
[09:07] <Pollywog> ardchoille: no I have never been in the Navy

[09:11] <steel_lady> My comp was shut down and I am left without 24 hours of work that I didn't go to sleep!!!
[09:11] <Cyrus25801> search google. maybe there is a app you can recover with
[09:12] <Stormx2> steel_lady: Did you save and the work still got lost?
[09:12] <tonyyarusso> steel_lady: What was the work done in?  OpenOffice can recover.
[09:12] <DShepherd> what commmand can i execute to  reinitialize my ps/2 mouse?
[09:12] <bluefox83> steel_lady, sorry to tell you this, but even in windows that would have happened if you didn't save
[09:12] <steel_lady> Cyrus25801, do you know if it saves temps somewhere? I hope they were not lying!!!
[09:12] <steel_lady> No I didn't savbe the work, I was too busy
[09:12] <bluefox83> DShepherd, modprobe psmouse
[09:12] <steel_lady> tony it was gnumeric spreadsheet
[09:13] <rubyat> gnumeric auto-saves periodically
[09:13] <Plenum> Afternoon everyone, two quick questions.  Is there any way to have the standard cd based install of 6.0.6 not eject the cd when it's done?  Also has anyone found a good resource for setting up custom pxe installations?
[09:13] <tonyyarusso> rubyat: Do you know where?
[09:13] <ardchoille> rubyat: It does? That's good to know.
[09:13] <rubyat> in your home file
[09:13] <rubyat> open gnumeric and try open from the menu
[09:13] <steel_lady> bluefox83, it happened to me in word 2.5 years ago and it was recovered, everythyng but last 2 lines because it is saving in temp every 10 mins or so
[09:14] <raven3x7> rubyat, in a hidden folder?
[09:14] <rubyat> not sure if a dot file
[09:14] <bluefox83> steel_lady, then check your temp dir and see if it's there...
[09:14] <meezyfuh> raven3x7: can i pm?
[09:14] <DShepherd> bluefox83: doesnt work ...
[09:14] <raven3x7> meezyfuh, go ahead
[09:14] <Cyrus25801> steel_lady: there is a irc channel."We can be found on the IRC server at irc.gnome.org, port 6666 (standard IRC port), on channel #gnumeric"
[09:14] <bluefox83> DShepherd, sudo modprobe psmouse
[09:14] <DShepherd> bluefox83: ah.. let me try that
[09:15] <bluefox83> DShepherd, i forget to use sudo once in a while >.>
[09:15] <Stormx2> steel_lady: Looks as if it auto-saves in the document its working at all. Did you not even save once?
[09:15] <Stormx2> at all = on
[09:15] <steel_lady> Storm No I did not. I am really stupid!!!
[09:15] <Stormx2> I'm too tired to type coherently
[09:15] <Sonderblade> why can't totem play .xm .it and s3m files out of the box?
[09:16] <Stormx2> steel_lady: Well then, it'll only have ever really existed in the RAM...
[09:16] <cyris> is there away to view all current entries in my ldap database?
[09:16] <Cyrus25801> steel_lady: note message above
[09:17] <steel_lady> Cyrus2581 I don't understand
[09:17] <ardchoille> steel_lady: If you open gnumeric, is the file you were working on available from the File menu somewhere. Sounds like it may have saved some of the work itself.. unless you disabled auto-save.
[09:17] <Chocobo> I have a friend who accidently just rm'd his .tex thesis.   Does Ububtu have any tools for inode revocery?
[09:17] <steel_lady> I didn't disable anything but it is empty!!!
[09:17] <Spartacus> How do I open the settings menu for an installed nvidia graphics card on Edgy?
[09:17] <ardchoille> :(
[09:17] <Cyrus25801> steel_lady: there is gnumeric chat room on irc the details are above. they will be able to help you better
[09:18] <ompaul> Chocobo, boot with a live CD and use "the coroners toolkit" that is all the advice one can give
[09:18] <Pollywog> steel_lady: http://www.gnome.org/projects/gnumeric/doc/quick-files.shtml
[09:18] <DShepherd> bluefox83: no luck.. my mouse maybe sick.. cause sometimes when the machine reboots it works. I just didnt want to reboot again.. oh well... any other ideas.
[09:18] <DShepherd> ?
[09:18] <raven3x7> meezyfuh, ?
[09:18] <Chocobo> ompaul, the Ubuntu live CD?  Does that come with "The coroners toolkit"?
[09:18] <n-iCe> HI i have problems with my ubuntu i guess isn't loading properly
[09:19] <somethingCool> Can anyone help me figure out why setserial is not working?
[09:19] <ompaul> Chocobo, no idea if it is on there - but it can be downloaded
[09:19] <Cyrus25801> I need some help. I want to setup a pc that other users would work through to go onto the net. I want to limit their traffic and speed. can someone help me
[09:19] <bluefox83> DShepherd, make sure it's plugged in correctly...
[09:19] <n-iCe> take a lot of time to load ubuntu when i start the pc and sometimes when it starts doesn't load my usb wireless adapter what could be ?
[09:19] <ardchoille> DShepherd: Silly question, but this happened to me recently.. is the mouse cord securely plugged in? Mine had come loose a bit and was doing the same thing.
[09:19] <DShepherd> bluefox83: checked that about 10secs ago.. i guess I will try a reboot..
[09:19] <KnowledgEngi> how can i convert an APE to MP3 ??

[09:30] <OmegaNine> neildarlow: What do you mean?  I cant DL a kernel that will use both my duel cores?
[09:30] <bjv> booting ubuntu takes 15 minutes as it checks for raid devices that no longer exist. ive --purged mdadm, and cannot find any remaining configs/etc.
[09:30] <bjv> why is ubuntu still reading my disks (light pulses) for 15 minutes while it is 'starting up RAIDs'?
[09:30] <yurimxpxman> Spartacus: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and add yur resolutions to the list

[09:31] <neildarlow> OmegaNine: the generic kernel is SMP-capable
[09:31] <ardchoille> !gksudo | Spartacus
[09:31] <KnowledgEngi> or i must make 2 conversion ?
[09:31] <ubotu> Spartacus: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application> 
[09:31] <bjv> anyone ever run into this problem, after disabling their raid devices?
[09:31] <ardchoille> !gksudo > yurimxpxman
[09:31] <frojnd> has anyone had similar problem than me: I can't play vmw files with embedded mplayer plugin... what codecs do I need to install ? anyone?
[09:32] <OmegaNine> neildarlow: Ah, just looked. Thats cool.  One less step.
[09:32] <sivik> frojnd, find the w32codecs
[09:32] <neildarlow> bjv: have you changed the partition type from raid-autodetect?
[09:32] <Anohaakten> anyone in here have the linksys wpc54g?
[09:32] <sivik> frojnd, should be able to tell from apt-cache search w32codecs
[09:32] <freebse> hallo, apt-get update on dapper has a broken package evolution-2.6 stoped working... can someone verify this pls before I write a bug report
[09:32] <bjv> neildarlow: where would that be? ive tried the kernel option raid=noautodetect
[09:32] <happyface0> Anohaakten, thats a very common router but there are TONS of models of it
[09:32] <frojnd> sivik: no w32codecs if apt-cache search
[09:33] <frojnd> maybe I need repos ..
[09:33] <steel_lady> no it doesn't work that thing with the server!
[09:33] <neildarlow> bjv: any flavour of fdisk
[09:33] <`nicola> is it possible to alt+tab windows from all workspaces ? thanks
[09:33] <ardchoille> freebse: This happened recently and was fixed. when was the last time you updated?
[09:33] <`nicola> (with gnome)
[09:33] <Anohaakten> wpc54g v1.2 is a wireless card by linksys
[09:33] <sivik> frojnd, then your going to have to find more repos that have it, i can't remember which one i have
[09:33] <happyface0> sorry I was thinking of wrt54g
[09:33] <sivik> how do i tell what the specs for the computer are, from terminal/konsole
[09:33] <infidel> steel_lady, what was the name of the server do you remember?

[09:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about usb - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[09:34] <sivik> frojnd, ok
[09:34] <yell0w> heys guys, what do you usually do to free up space on dapper ? i did clean auto-clean deborphan, remove the package cache. What else to do ?
[09:34] <ardchoille> freebse: I believe the update is for Firefox and it breaks Evolution. If this is the case, this happened a couple days ago and is now fixed in the recent updates.
[09:35] <steel_lady> infidel it was irc.gnome.org and I tried and nothing happens
[09:35] <bjv> neildarlow: all partitions look like they are 82, 83 or msdos?
[09:35] <Cyrus25801> steel lady. lets do this step by step.1) press ctrl+s. 2)Click add and type in irc.gnome.org. 3)then click edit 4) change newsserver/667 to newserver/6666
[09:35] <bjv> neildarlow: on both drives
[09:35] <neildarlow> bjv: that's not the problem then
[09:35] <joshjosh> if you have a straight multiple gig DOS partition, that's freakin' awesome
[09:35] <freebse> ardchoille: if it is taken care of I guess it is allright, I fixed it myself with a debian mirror
[09:36] <ardchoille> freebse: Cool
[09:36] <napsy> Hello. I registered my nick a long time ago and I can't remember the pass. Can I reset it?

[09:36] <ardchoille> freebse: Wait, you're using debian repos in Ubuntu?
[09:36] <somethingCool> Can anyone spot anything wrong with this? "sudo setserial /dev/ttyS4 port 0xe000 irq 11 autoconfig"
[09:36] <somethingCool> I get an Invalid Argument error in Ubuntu, but it works fine in Suze
[09:37] <ardchoille> happyface0: Right click the clok and go to properties/prefs

[09:37] <Doddman> How do I change my login screen? (Right now it uses the kubuntu login screen)
[09:37] <freebse> ardchoille: well not regulary, I just fixed evolution this way, normally I dont - it can mess up your system
[09:38] <neildarlow> sivik: the kernel and modules use RAM too
[09:38] <ardchoille> freebse: Glad to see you realise that :)
[09:38] <sivik> neighborlee, i understand that
[09:38] <freebse> ardchoille: well ;)
[09:38] <Cyrus25801> steel_lady: 5) in channels to join type: #gnumeric ((change step 4 to newserver/6667 to irc.gnome.org)) 6) Click OK and connect

[09:39] <sivik> neildarlow, i understand that, but shouldn't it be telling me that my memtotal should be somewhere around 500 not 384 when i do a cat /proc/meminfo
[09:39] <Cyrus25801> steel_lady: let me know if it worked. it worked here
[09:39] <ardchoille> freebse: The fix I used was from the forums:  LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/firefox evolution &
[09:39] <steel_lady> cyrus25801 I joined, nobody alive there
[09:39] <neildarlow> sivik: what does "free" say?
[09:39] <bjv> oh great, googling my error message is drowning me in Warcraft nerds     "Starting up RAIDs" :\
[09:39] <Kuriyaki> How do I change the size of the partitions created by Ubuntu during installation?
[09:39] <sivik> 7932 kb, so like 7.9 m b
[09:39] <ardchoille> freebse: The ubuntuforums.org are quite good about getting a temp fix out if one exists.
[09:40] <sivik> Kuriyaki, do it with fdisk /dev/hd
[09:40] <frojnd> how should I rename those 2 repos so I can update and get new packages: 1) deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu edgy-commercial main 2) deb http://seveas.imbrandon.com/ edgy-seveas list_of_sections
[09:40] <frojnd> I get those at: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[09:40] <neildarlow> sivik: 7.9M for total?
[09:40] <salty> howdy ya'll
[09:40] <sivik> no, 7.9M free
[09:40] <yell0w> heys guys, what do you usually do to free up space on dapper ? i did clean auto-clean deborphan, localepurge, remove the package cache. What else to do ?
[09:40] <Kuriyaki> It says unable to open
[09:40] <bjv> Kuriyaki: must be root
[09:41] <Doddman> I want to get rid of the KDE login screen and use an XFCE one instead, how do I do that?
[09:41] <freebse> ardchoille: maybe I should fix it also this way... and roll back the debian package... I know this is not really a sollution when updating again, it could break my whole system ;) I need to roll back anyway before updating again... thx a lot for the info on how to fix that a better way
[09:41] <bjv> Kuriyaki: sudo gparted works well too
[09:41] <Tomcat_> yell0w: rm -rfv ~/.thumbnails (deletes cached file browser thumbnails), empty the trash
[09:41] <neildarlow> sivik: it's probably using memory well. look at your cached and buffers figures from "free"
[09:41] <ardchoille> freebse: You're welcome :)
[09:41] <salty> yellow besides uninstalling what you can that just about covers it
[09:41] <sivik> neighborlee, let me paste it to the pastebin

[09:44] <iggy_mon> about the screen resolution bit...  sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg  ...works!
[09:44] <sivik> neildarlow, its not the free that i'm worried about, its how much ram cedega sees so it runs better

[09:45] <francois> hi i forwared my TCP and UDP for port 22 for ssh, but i still can't get a connection, any ideas ?

[09:45] <neildarlow> sivik: you might be able to free-up shared display memory and AGP aperture ram in your BIOS
[09:46] <sivik> neildarlow, there isn't an option in my bios for that
[09:46] <AzraelM> hey again
[09:46] <ardchoille> erwan: Fedora Core is what Red Hat uses as a test bed for things that may make it into Red Hat releases. I feel that package management is handled better in Ubuntu, though.
[09:46] <AzraelM> Can anyone walk me through how to copy folders using the terminal? I'm having a little trouble with it
[09:46] <sivik> ardchoille, then use it
[09:47] <CarlFK> erwan: read  >What distro? on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CarlKarsten
[09:47] <sivik> AzraelM, its cp -R /file/location /where/yourmovingitto
[09:47] <neildarlow> AzraelM: cp -pR sourcefolder destfolder
[09:47] <sivik> AzraelM, all you need is the -R option to cp or mv folders
[09:47] <CarlFK> Azrael cp -a from to
[09:47] <AzraelM> so, it's -R, -pR, or -a?
[09:48] <freebse> AzraelM: try Midnight Commander for this... apt-get install mc
[09:48] <Cyrus25801> can i use Breezy Badger as a server
[09:48] <erwan> so what and how to make a choice between these 3 based on my needs?
[09:48] <erwan> seems like people have different feelings
[09:48] <sivik> Cyrus25801, you can use any distro/version as a server with the correct packages installed
[09:48] <salty> 'cp -Rv /dir/to/be/copied'
[09:48] <erwan> but this is all very personal it seems
[09:48] <AzraelM> now it's -Rv? :S
[09:49] <joshjosh> erwan: Exactly. It depends on what you're looking for in a linux distro
[09:49] <sivik> salty, all i ever have to use is the -R
[09:49] <freebse> erwan: try all of them, because asking for which isa the best will give you no real answer, everybody will tell you something different
[09:49] <sivik> freebse: your so correct
[09:49] <unimatrix9> hi there you all
[09:49] <salty> -v just lets ya see what's happening
[09:49] <neildarlow> AzraelM: -a includes -p and -R iirc
[09:49] <freebse> sivik: besides I also have an oppinion :) LOL
[09:49] <erwan> lemme ask this one then: which is the more robust and reliable for entreprise solutions
[09:49] <joshjosh> erwan: I use Ubuntu because I prefer gnome over KDE and the comminity/support is massive. It depends on what you want out of it
[09:50] <unimatrix9> i wanto submit a bug report, but not sure how to describe it, any one here lent a helping hand?
[09:50] <sivik> salty: ok, didn't know that but never really cared much
[09:50] <unimatrix9> its about feisty fawn - herd 5
[09:50] <sivik> unimatrix9, whats the problem
[09:50] <erwan> entreprise like a big network of computers
[09:50] <sivik> unimatrix9, go to #ubuntu+1
[09:50] <sivik> erwan: then use redhat enterprise or debian
[09:50] <unimatrix9> ok i will thanx
[09:50] <bigbird1040> can anyone here help me stop my system from crashing every time I open up my ntfs hard drive?
[09:50] <gkellycs> hey

[09:51] <gkellycs> anyone here that can help me with my sound?
[09:51] <AzraelM> now that I've installed Midnight Commander, where do I launch it?
[09:51] <omegabeta> Question : When I type in mplayer -vo svga whatever.mpg I can view a movie in the framebuffer, but there is no sound.. any ideas?
[09:51] <gkellycs> for some reason idk why it stopped playing
[09:51] <joshjosh> erwan: Vista *ducks*
[09:51] <Spartacus> I went into xorg and added the resolutions I wanted accessible, but none are in the list
[09:51] <freebse> AzraelM: type in mc
[09:51] <sivik> gkellycs, whats the problems
[09:51] <AzraelM> oooh
[09:51] <gkellycs> well
[09:51] <sivik> joshjosh: Vista = crap
[09:51] <gkellycs> i used to have sound, but now it is off. and idk why
[09:51] <sivik> joshjosh: their already working on a sp
[09:51] <freebse> AzraelM: works I guess :)
[09:51] <erwan> used vista for the last 2 weeks
[09:51] <sivik> gkellycs, did you try checking to make sure its not muted
[09:51] <gkellycs> speaker plugin is in the same place when it worked
[09:52] <francois> hi i forwared my TCP and UDP for port 22 for ssh, but i still can't get a connection, any ideas ?
[09:52] <gkellycs> ya, top right, its not
[09:52] <erwan> eventually got around all the new bugs, but yes it does suck
[09:52] <sivik> francois, can you ping what your trying to connect to?
[09:52] <joshjosh> erwan: What exactly do you want to use linux for?

[09:53] <gkellycs> it worked like yesterday night,
[09:53] <freebse> bah comparing GNU/Linux to Vista does make no sence at all... one is an OS the other is a fame console (sort of)
[09:53] <Spartacus> I went into xorg and added the resolutions I wanted accessible, but none are in the list

[09:53] <freebse> lol fame comsole :)
[09:53] <francois> sivik: yup ping works fine
[09:54] <neildarlow> freebse: Vista is as near to an OS as Windows has ever got :)

[10:11] <francois> Fuzzehskittle1: did you update ?
[10:11] <Slart> francois: ok, I think you have to modify that listen line so that sshd listens on that external ip too..
[10:11] <Fuzzehskittle1> i never installed flash yet
[10:12] <qebab> no more windows for me :)
[10:12] <Spartacus> fuzzehskittle1, er, you mean flash player, or macromedia flash?

[10:18] <moonwatcher> followed this: http://www.linux-usb.org/SpeedTouch/ubuntu/index.html

[10:19] <joshjosh> lord_maynoth: try #kubuntu

[10:19] <Chaplan> Sorry for spamming before
[10:19] <moonwatcher> skype for linux gets a connection but nothing else works
[10:19] <moonwatcher> i think its this line: sudo ln -sf ppp/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf
[10:19] <ZepDom> or do i need to install fglrx?
[10:19] <fernando> nvidia drivers

[10:20] <|omegabeta|> Question : I can not get any sound in Mplayer in the Framebuffer (I type in mplayer -vo svga "filename") and the movie displays fine, just not with sound.. any ideas?
[10:21] <abelstr> Spartacus: Xorg disables certain video modes based on the retrieved EDID data, if your Xorg.conf monitor section is correct, ignoring the (maybe) faulty EDID data might help in accepting your newly added modes. Under the section 'Device" that contains your video card.
[10:21] <sureshot> moonwatcher may i ask you a tech question
[10:21] <joshjosh> !ndiswrapper
[10:21] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs

[10:21] <abelstr> Spartacus: not entirely sure though
[10:21] <moonwatcher> sureshot: you can ask, but i am the noob here :)
[10:21] <gaten> bigjohnto:  but make sure you BACKUP everything on that drive first
[10:21] <ZepDom> PCGenie:  I guess I don't understand what the difference is between fglrx and the ati drivers... why I would use one over the other one.
[10:21] <joshjosh> those who need wireless help: you need to make sure that you have the correct wireless drivers. You can get them off your windows partition or there are docs that have links to ones in there.
[10:22] <punisher> hey

[10:23] <PCGenie> ZepDom, what video card are you installing?
[10:23] <fernando> yes i have installed nvidia drivers
[10:23] <gaten> moonlite:  that creates a symbolic link. type 'man ln' to figure out what -sf means
[10:23] <Chaplan> So what is your problem
[10:23] <moonwatcher> -sf doesnt show up on the man
[10:23] <Chaplan> are you portuguese fernandop

[10:23] <gaten> s and f do
[10:23] <fernando> i cant not get to install xgl effects in gnome
[10:24] <gaten> moonwatcher:  thats a combination of 2 switches, s and f
[10:24] <moonwatcher> there is -s which means symbolic and -f which means force
[10:24] <bigbird1040> everytime I access my NTFS hard drive using the ntfs-3g driver, my whole system crashes
[10:24] <fernando> no spanish
[10:24] <moonwatcher> but thats no tthe same as -sf
[10:24] <PCGenie> ZepDom,  oh, i installed AtI X200 so it is about the same
[10:24] <punisher> nah josh nothing happend
[10:24] <ZepDom> PCGenie:  so you did fglrx?

[10:24] <Joeyc236> thanks
[10:24] <fernando> ok
[10:25] <moonwatcher> anyway is that command fuckign up my routing?
[10:25] <gaten> moonlite:  no, you can combine them. its like that for almost all CLIs
[10:25] <joshjosh> joeyc236: They're the same. One is Gnome default, one is KDE default. You can run them vice versa if you want.
[10:25] <moonwatcher> and how do i make it stop?
[10:25] <Joeyc236> oh ok thanks
[10:25] <Joeyc236> i'm new to this lol

[10:25] <Chaplan> www.sofotec.blogspot.com
[10:25] <tonyyarusso> quad3datwork: use apt-file
[10:25] <abelstr> Spartacus: try http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/ChangeResolution
[10:25] <joshjosh> punisher: hmm.
[10:25] <PCGenie> zenrox, well, i installed the AMD ATI driver but I think that the fglrx was installed automatically when i installed ubuntu
[10:25] <joshjosh> frank castle: what kind of card do you have again?
[10:25] <bigbird1040> If anyone knows what to do with this problem I'd greatly appreciate it.  Every time I access my NTFS hard drive using the ntfs-3g driver, my whole system crashes.
[10:25] <moonwatcher> how do i "break up" that link?
[10:26] <gaten> moonwatcher:  donno. all that does is create a link between those 2 files. where do you see that line
[10:26] <PCGenie> ZepDom, do these checks on your command line http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Frequently_Asked_Questions
[10:26] <abelstr> Spartacus: especially the Modeline section might help
[10:26] <Chaplan> where are you fernando?

[10:29] <PCGenie> OmegaNine, if you have been in here for awhile see the links for i gave for the ATI drivers and wiki
[10:29] <moonwatcher> gaten: what would be the command for that?

[10:30] <_Krull_> Anyone point me at a site where I can download and how to install themes?
[10:30] <Agiofws> is it from default to -x ?
[10:30] <Chaplan> http://go.yaplet.com/?url=http://sofotec.blogspot.com/
[10:30] <abelstr> _Krull_: if you use GNOME, as default, try gnome-look.org ?
[10:30] <fernando> wheres the link
[10:30] <Chaplan> got that?
[10:30] <joshjosh> _Krull_: http//www.gnome-look.org
[10:30] <PCGenie> ZepDom, are you getting that as a message from one of the commands?
[10:30] <gaten> moonlite:  rm /etc/resolv.conf. but i dont think you should do that.
[10:30] <Lord_Maynoth> anyone here know how to install kde-config?
[10:30] <moonwatcher> all the man pages i find explain how to create the fucker not how to remove it
[10:30] <jake333> does anyone stream 3gpp to there phone?
[10:30] <_Krull_> thanks
[10:30] <Lord_Maynoth> I can't find it in the repos
[10:30] <starly> moonwatcher: rm *name-of-the-symlink* ... do type in a terminal "man man" "man ls" "man cd" "man mv" "man rm" "man ln" and read.
[10:30] <ZepDom> PCGenie: yeah... glxinfo
[10:31] <Chaplan> http://go.yaplet.com/?url=http://sofotec.blogspot.com/
[10:31] <moonwatcher> i did read....
[10:31] <abelstr> Lord_Maynoth: you mean kcontrol?
[10:31] <PCGenie> ZepDom, man glxinfo to see what it checks
[10:31] <Lord_Maynoth> I dunno
[10:31] <fernando> kmail
[10:31] <moonwatcher> i just dont understand what is going on
[10:31] <Lord_Maynoth> I get an error saying kde-config isn't installed
[10:31] <moonwatcher> an di dont want to delete somethign that would make it work even less
[10:31] <ZepDom> can't man, undocumented it says
[10:31] <joshjosh> punisher: what kind of card do you have?
[10:32] <ZepDom> PCGenie: but none of the glx stuff is coming up in the other commands i put in
[10:32] <gaten> moonwatcher:  the comand "ln -sf ...." just creates a link between those 2 files, kinda sorta like copying the first on the the second one
[10:32] <jake333> anyone use appache, and if so can i stream 3gpp on it?
[10:32] <Lord_Maynoth> is Kcontrol the same thing as kde-config?
[10:32] <moonwatcher> gaten: i figured i dont want to delete /etc/resolv.conf, but ppp/resolve.conf is "overriting" it now i suppose
[10:32] <punisher> geforce 7300 LE pci
[10:33] <moonwatcher> which is why i dont get a routing when using a lan
[10:33] <moonwatcher> am i correct?
[10:33] <abelstr> Lord_Maynoth: I have no idea. I thought you might have been looking for the KDE control center, which is called KControl, but kde-config I don't know; what program throws the error?
[10:33] <PCGenie> ZepDom, i see that there is no man page for it. i do see also that it has a lot of info
[10:33] <ZepDom> PCGenie:  I lookd in synaptic and saw that fglrx is NOT installed.
[10:33] <Kuriyak1> Where may I download the Ubuntu Uninstaller?
[10:33] <Kronuz> hello
[10:34] <darkcommon> LO!
[10:34] <gaten> moonlite:  yes it is
[10:34] <ZepDom> yeah, i just grepped direct
[10:34] <darkcommon> a snd recorder for Edgy??
[10:34] <riaal> man Im really starting to like Amarok!
[10:34] <punisher> joshjosh
[10:34] <PCGenie> ZepDom, maybe you need it. have you done a search on the ubuntu forum to see what others experienced
[10:34] <ZepDom> also, when I do glrxinfo it doesn't show the ati card
[10:34] <riaal> !ipod
[10:34] <ubotu> For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto See !rockbox for information on liberating your iPod
[10:34] <apokryphos> Kuriyak1: why exactly would you need an uninstaller? Just format the partition.
[10:34] <ZepDom> yeah, ive read that some use fglrx and some use the ati drivers...
[10:34] <apokryphos> riaal: yes, Amarok is indeed awesome =)
[10:34] <darkcommon> !rockbox
[10:34] <ubotu> rockbox is an open source firmware replacement for MP3 players from Archos, iRiver, Apple (iPod), and iAudio.  See http://www.rockbox.org/ to get started!
[10:34] <Lord_Maynoth> trying to compile a program but it gives me an error that kde-config isn't installed
[10:34] <gopp> !lamp
[10:34] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[10:34] <Kuriyak1> How do I know in which partition Ubuntu was installed to?
[10:34] <PCGenie> ZepDom, did you install the ATI driver?
[10:34] <darkcommon> a SOUND RECORDER FOR EDGY??
[10:35] <gopp> rockbox is great
[10:35] <gopp> no need to use itunes
[10:35] <apokryphos> Kuriyak1: cat /etc/fstab
[10:35] <riaal> apokryphos, better then itunes?
[10:35] <Stormx2> Folks, how is a particular user given permission to use sudo?
[10:35] <ZepDom> PCGenie:  no
[10:35] <gopp> just drag the music to the root folder

[10:35] <Kronuz> hey, I think I'll give Ubuntu a try, but I'd like to know how can I make my RAID disk array work in it
[10:35] <darkcommon> !ati-3d
[10:35] <Kronuz> I'm using nForce4 RAID
[10:35] <Crosswing> hey n-iCe!
[10:35] <jake333> ardchoille: do you think i shouled set up an appache server?
[10:35] <PCGenie> ZepDom, well that is how i installed it
[10:35] <apokryphos> !botabuse | darkcommon
[10:35] <Jowi> anyone else upgraded to kernel 2.6.17-11-generic and the keyboard leds are constantly flashing?
[10:35] <n-iCe> ROFL
[10:35] <gkellycs> hey, can someone help me with my sound?
[10:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ati-3d - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:35] <n-iCe> Crosswing,  !!!!
[10:35] <psusi> Kronuz: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FakeRaieHowto
[10:35] <riaal> applenux, I find that hard to belive but after just 15 min of use I really like it.. hope your right =)
[10:35] <n-iCe> How is doing mate ?
[10:36] <Crosswing> So far so good.
[10:36] <Stormx2> gkellycs: sing from your stomach
[10:36] <Kronuz> psusi: Fake?
[10:36] <ZepDom> oh.. okay.. how do i install a rpm on ubuntu?
[10:36] <psusi> Kronuz: make that https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FakeRaidHowto
[10:36] <Kuriyak1> it says dev3/hda on / is that it?
[10:36] <apokryphos> ZepDom: what rpm is it?
[10:36] <logikon> !alien
[10:36] <gkellycs> well, my sound worked last night, but now it doesnt
[10:36] <ubotu> RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu does not use RPM, but !APT, and RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[10:36] <riaal> apokryphos, ^
[10:36] <n-iCe> Crosswing,  :))
[10:36] <shatrat> Kronuz, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto  without typo
[10:36] <omglazers> Can anyone provide me with the password for the root or what pass I need to preform SUDO on a LiveCD?
[10:36] <Stormx2> Folks, how is a particular user given permission to use sudo?
[10:36] <darkcommon> ANY CAN TAKE ME AN SOUND RECORDER!!
[10:36] <abelstr> Kuriyak1: then /dev/hda3 is the partition Ubuntu was installed on,.
[10:36] <psusi> Kronuz: yes... you have fake hardware raid
[10:36] <apokryphos> !caps | darkcommon
[10:36] <ZepDom> apok: the ati driver rpm
[10:36] <ubotu> darkcommon: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[10:36] <Kronuz> oh
[10:36] <Stormx2> darkcommon: The moment you turn caps off, yeah.
[10:36] <Kuriyak1> So do I format dev/hda3 and it should work?
[10:36] <Kuriyak1> Within GTParted?
[10:36] <ompaul> !shout > darkcommon (please read the message from the bot)
[10:36] <abelstr> Kuriyak: What do you want to do?
[10:37] <shatrat> Kronuz, its partly a software raid.  Check the prices of full-on hardware raid 5 controllers and youll see why
[10:37] <riaal> apokryphos, I find that hard to belive but after just 15 min of use I really like it.. hope your right =)
[10:37] <starly> omglazers: afair just do sudo w/o a password
[10:37] <apokryphos> Stormx2: sudo adduser USERNAME admin
[10:37] <Crosswing> latero
[10:37] <omglazers> starly: doesnt work
[10:37] <gaten> omglazers:  try 'sudo su -'
[10:37] <Kuriyak1> Change the sizes of the partitions...I've tried...I've asked no answers
[10:37] <omglazers> gaten: thanks
[10:37] <Kuriyak1> so I might as well Uninstall Ubuntu
[10:37] <ZepDom> PCGenie:  did you just download the xorg driver?
[10:37] <darkcommon> any can tell me a SoundRECORDER for Edgy...
[10:37] <Kuriyak1> and do it right this time
[10:37] <apokryphos> gaten: please don't advise that -- advise sudo -i instead.
[10:37] <Kronuz> shatrat: so the nForce4 RAID is software handled?
[10:37] <Kronuz> hmm
[10:37] <K3nto> how do i uninstall an application i installed with wine?
[10:37] <omglazers> gaten: no good
[10:37] <Kuriyak1> So Do I just format hda3 ?
[10:37] <abelstr> Kuriyak: if you want to enlarge your root partition, type 'resize2fs /dev/hda3' in a terminal.
[10:37] <apokryphos> riaal: see its help page for all the wonderful features it has.
[10:37] <psusi> Kronuz: yes... read the introduction in the howto for an explanation
[10:37] <riaal> apokryphos, name someone?
[10:37] <shatrat> Kronuz, partly.  The how-to explains it better than I can
[10:38] <moonwatcher> gaten: ok so what i have is a dns problem, how do i remove that thing so it goes back to using the lan?
[10:38] <apokryphos> riaal: sorry?
[10:38] <Kuriyak1> Permission denied
[10:38] <gaten> apokryphos:  alright. why not -?
[10:38] <abelstr> Kuriyak1: if you want to remove Ubuntu, you'd better do that from within windows.
[10:38] <kelsin> K3nto: the same way you would in windows (well without the add/remove programs dialog) use the uninstall program, or just delete it's files and regentries
[10:38] <Kronuz> can I install Ubuntu (or any other linux for that matter) without errasing my current RAIDs ?
[10:38] <sixhat> darkcommon, Jokosher http://www.jokosher.org/
[10:38] <K3nto> darkcommon: application>sound/video -> sound recoder
[10:38] <Kuriyak1> How may I do that within windows?
[10:38] <abelstr> Kuriyak1: Sorry, append 'sudo' before the command.
[10:38] <riaal> apokryphos, some winderful feature?
[10:38] <psusi> abelstr: resize2fs is not that simple.. you also have to fdisk it properly... better off using gparted
[10:38] <apokryphos> gaten: because Ubuntu uses sudo, so you should advise that instead of su.
[10:38] <K3nto> kelsin: ok thanks
[10:38] <joshjosh> punisher: It's hard to find info about your card. heh. i'm still looking though. haven't forgotten ya
[10:38] <psusi> Kronuz: that's what the howto is all about
[10:38] <Stormx2> apokryphos: I'm actually doing this on a non-ubuntu system >.< but it should be the same shouldn't it?
[10:38] <Kuriyak1> How may I uninstall Ubuntu within Windows?
[10:38] <Kronuz> :)
[10:38] <apokryphos> riaal: basic things like qeueing tracks, to lyrics/album cover management etc.
[10:38] <ZepDom> how can i reload xorg without reboot?
[10:39] <shatrat> ZepDom, ctrl alt backspace
[10:39] <ZepDom> thanks
[10:39] <Kronuz> hey, I'm checking a video of Beryl... it looks great
[10:39] <Stormx2> apokryphos: I guess not, nevermind
[10:39] <abelstr> Kuriyak1: that's quite beyond the channel, but you'll need to use the 'Disk Manager' to reformat existing partitions.
[10:39] <apokryphos> Stormx2: sudo is very flexible, so it really depends on its setup. Answer: maybe, maybe not.
[10:39] <gaten> moonwatcher:  remove the resolv.conf and create an empty file in its place
[10:39] <shatrat> Kronuz, what video card do you have?
[10:39] <psusi> Kuriyak1: open disk manager and format the partition
[10:39] <joshjosh> punisher: What version of ubuntu you using?
[10:39] <Kronuz> NVIDIA GeForce 6600 or something
[10:39] <punisher> 5.10
[10:39] <gaten> apokryphos:  k..
[10:39] <abelstr> psusi: you're right, but GParted can't on-line resize ext3, afaik
[10:39] <_Krull_> Thanks for the answer, on some irc orgs, they don't even acknoledge you asked the question. ... :)
[10:39] <apokryphos> Stormx2: a pastebin of cat /etc/sudoers would tell us
[10:39] <ironfroggy> anyone know of a media player that can do overlay visualizations?
[10:39] <shatrat> Kronuz, you should have no problems with beryl in that case, but one thing at a time.
[10:40] <punisher> ubuntu 5.10 im using josh josh
[10:40] <ironfroggy> like winamp does?
[10:40] <psusi> abelstr: right... but neither can resize2fs... you do that with a remount and that can only make it larger, not smaller
[10:40] <ZepDom> Anyone know how to run a .run file?
[10:40] <colbert> What is the terminal command to see the harddrives and partitions on my system like hd0, hd1, etc. ??
[10:40] <Asche_83m> Hello! Where am I expected to talk OT?
[10:40] <Kronuz> hey, has anyone by any chance used UltraEdit 32 for windows ?
[10:40] <joshjosh> punisher: Hmmm...you want to try doing an update?
[10:40] <apokryphos> Stormx2: there's another guaranteed way of doing it
[10:40] <punisher> ok how?
[10:40] <ironfroggy> colbert: you aren't THE colbert, are you?
[10:40] <ZepDom> Kronuz: I have.
[10:40] <Kuriyak1> Do I open Disk Manager within Windows?
[10:40] <kane77> ZepDom, hmm from commad line you just type ./name_of that file
[10:40] <Kronuz> I'd be looking for an editor like that one
[10:40] <gkellycs> can someone help me fix my sound?
[10:40] <shatrat> ZepDom, what is it? there might be a better method to install whatever software it is.  Otherwise you can use sh /path/to/executable.run
[10:40] <Kuriyak1> Or how would I do that
[10:40] <K3nto> kelsin: ok done
[10:40] <joshjosh> punisher: I don't know if thsi would be safe...
[10:40] <Kronuz> ZepDom: under linux
[10:40] <K3nto> woo 5 more gb
[10:40] <gaten> ZepDom:  do a 'file file.run' and see what kinda file it is
[10:40] <ZepDom> thanks shat
[10:40] <punisher> ok
[10:41] <ZepDom> Kronuz: no :)
[10:41] <apokryphos> Stormx2: sudo visudo and add: someusername ALL=(ALL) ALL
[10:41] <goblimeyW> what is the routine for lost password to ubuntuforums.org ?
[10:41] <punisher> what update shall i do
[10:41] <kontingenz> How can I install flashplugin? When I start update-flashplugin I get "automatic installation failed due to network problems or upstream changes"
[10:41] <apokryphos> goblimeyW: #ubuntuforums
[10:41] <abelstr> Kuriyak1: Yes, within WIndows. But you'd best see a 'windows' support channel for such instructions -_-
[10:41] <Kronuz> ZepDom: do you know of any similar? (simple and powerful)
[10:41] <gkellycs> can someone help me set up my sound? it worked last night, but it doesnt work now
[10:41] <apokryphos> !sound | gkellycs
[10:41] <goblimeyW> thx apokryphos
[10:41] <ubotu> gkellycs: 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
[10:41] <punisher> dont want to download tho

[10:41] <Kuriyak1> hmmm then how do I resize the partition? it gave my windows like 200mb fre
[10:41] <Kuriyak1> e
[10:41] <joshjosh> punisher: the support for video cards is much better in the later versions.
[10:41] <Kuriyak1> and Ubuntu like 20gigs -.-
[10:41] <Kronuz> I'm definitely trying Ubuntu... Vista was too expensive... and ugly :(
[10:41] <kontingenz> shatrat, thx
[10:42] <joshjosh> punisher: you could try envy or automatix and see if either of those work for you first.
[10:42] <kontingenz> !backports
[10:42] <ubotu> If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports

[10:42] <Kronuz> can I instal Ubuntu from the LiveCD? is the LiveCD all I have to get?

[10:43] <apokryphos> Kronuz: please take a look at the FAQ <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions> as linked to in the channel /topic.
[10:43] <apokryphos> Kronuz: yes.

[10:44] <_Krull_> You ppl are great, now one last helper, I downloaded a theme I like, how do I install it?
[10:44] <shatrat> _Krull_, there is a Themes utility in the System menu
[10:44] <shatrat> _Krull_, you can import themes there
[10:44] <Kronuz> hey, what about something like the Windows Destop Search to find stuff?
[10:44] <joshjosh> punisher: seems there no automatix for your version of ubuntu...but here's envy http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html

[10:44] <abelstr> Kronuz: try beagle
[10:45] <MK007> Hey all i'm used to using fedora core but i thoguht i give kubuntu or ubuntu a try but i boot off the cd it takes so long i give up is there a way of installing of the cd without going in ubuntu thus saving me a one hour wait time?
[10:45] <punisher> ty
[10:45] <joshjosh> punisher: I know for a fact automatix won't work for you. Envy might, might not. It says it's for dapper and later...
[10:45] <joshjosh> punisher: If that fails, you should do a complete upgrade. if you run in to any problems, i'll probably be in here awhile. i'm avoiding home work. good luck man
[10:45] <abelstr> MK007: There is an 'alternative install cd' that as far as I know uses the default debian installer.
[10:46] <kane77> when do you think is time to switch to feisty?
[10:46] <abelstr> MK007: Not pretty though.
[10:46] <apokryphos> !automatix
[10:46] <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
[10:46] <apokryphos> MK007: /msg ubotu alternate
[10:46] <Michael_TC> Would anyone be able to help me find the problem of the screen freezing up after booting?

[10:46] <tim167> i'm trying to install NVIDIA drivers on another computer but ENVY doesnt work anymore, i get error : "Build of package nvidia.kernel-source failed!"
[10:46] <The_PHP_Jedi> hey, can anyone recommend me a video converter?
[10:46] <reap> has anyone run into the problem of a corrupt screen on an ubuntu 6.10 installation(both 386.iso and AMD64.iso on 7800GT)? anyone have any fix ideas?
[10:46] <dyrne> Kronuz: linux search options are far superior. win drives me crazy on searches
[10:46] <apokryphos> The_PHP_Jedi: no it doesn't. Please don't recommend it in here.
[10:46] <apokryphos> kane77: /msg ubotu feisty
[10:46] <Michael_TC> I've done some searching online, and found similar problems, but haven't been able to fix mine..
[10:46] <The_PHP_Jedi> really, apokryphos?
[10:46] <joshjosh> tim167: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[10:46] <MK007> abelstr and apokryphos thanks + i perfer to install manualy then waiting for it to load lol
[10:46] <ompaul> The_PHP_Jedi, what you do in the privacy of your command line is your business
[10:46] <apokryphos> The_PHP_Jedi: indeed, yes. See ubotu's point.
[10:46] <The_PHP_Jedi> agreed.
[10:46] <shatrat> Michael_TC, sounds like a video driver problem
[10:47] <punisher> cheers m8
[10:47] <Michael_TC> That's what I was thinking, shatrat,
[10:47] <_Krull_> Ok, I must have downloaded the theme into the wrong place, where do I put it so it shows in the theme program?
[10:47] <tim167>  joshjosh: is that a dependancy for envy or just the classic way to install nvidia ?
[10:47] <punisher> it says cant open
[10:47] <The_PHP_Jedi> hey, can anyone recommend me a video converter?
[10:47] <Michael_TC> But I'm not privy enough to the secrets of xorg.conf to know what to chabnge.
[10:47] <alecjw> The_PHP_Jedi, ffmpeg. if you want a graphical one. theres transcode
[10:47] <punisher> il do an update

[10:47] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:47] <abelstr> _Krull_: you can just drag it onto the theme  program list of themes.
[10:48] <francois> how do i restart ssh server ?
[10:48] <_Krull_> thanks abelstr
[10:48] <shatrat> Michael_TC, what card do you have, and what driver are you using?
[10:48] <abelstr> francois: sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart
[10:48] <joshjosh> punisher: damn. alright.
[10:48] <francois> abelstr: thank you
[10:48] <trakz> anyone know if the Daylight Savings Time change in the US requires any "tweaks" to the installed Ubuntu OS (Dapper)?
[10:48] <Michael_TC> shatrat: I'm trusting it's word on the card; the driver is i810
[10:48] <kane77> apokryphos, but when I install for example the beta version, will the update-manager keep me up-to date with the official version (released april 19th)?
[10:49] <shatrat> Michael_TC, an intel card?  what does lspci | grep VGA say?
[10:49] <francois> I need help setting up ssh, can anyone help ?
[10:49] <punisher> josh u got msn

[10:50] <kane77> apokryphos, I tested the herd3 release (only on vmware) and it wasn't that buggy...
[10:50] <apokryphos> Kronuz: please take a look at the FAQ <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions> as linked to in the channel /topic.
[10:50] <CarlFK> Kronuz: yup
[10:50] <shatrat> Michael_TC, er, I see so you have an onboard video and a video card
[10:50] <shatrat> Michael_TC, which one are you using?>
[10:51] <kane77> apokryphos, and my dapper is realy falling apart...
[10:51] <Michael_TC> The video card.
[10:51] <C41R0> anyone can tell me how to know whether the graphic card driver is work or not ? my graphic card is fx 5200
[10:51] <apokryphos> kane77: no guarantees, and no support in this channel for it (though there's +1)
[10:51] <Kronuz> apokryphos: I will, thanks... it's just that I'm desperate to get away from Vista ^_^
[10:51] <Michael_TC> I tried moving the cable to the onboard and booting, but then I got nothing at all.
[10:51] <Cluster_1> hi, i've been doing some searching online and haven't been able to find my answer. how do i switch my login screen from xdmcp back to the normal login?

[10:51] <PCGenie> trakz, hard to say about the clock but i have time updated automatically
[10:51] <apokryphos> Cluster_1: sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm, perhaps?
[10:51] <shatrat> Michael_TC, well, I think you might need to enable the onboard video in bios, or remove the voodoo3
[10:51] <OmegaNine> C41R0: Yeah Nvidia has pretty good Linux support.
[10:51] <francois> C41R0: you have the same card as me, did you install drivers ? or just running the general drivers ?
[10:51] <shatrat> Michael_TC, and then you would also need to reconfigure xorg
[10:52] <abelstr> francois: are you sure port 22 is indeed being forwarded?
[10:52] <darkcommon> its possible install Beryl on an VIA K8M800 graphics?
[10:52] <C41R0> yup, i tried the method 1 which posted in the ubuntu forum
[10:52] <Michael_TC> shatrat: so the video card might be *disabled* in BIOS right now?
[10:52] <francois> abelstr: when i try to connect from the internet ip, i get this:
[10:52] <C41R0> and my direct rendering is yes, but i still have no idea whether is work or not
[10:52] <shatrat> Michael_TC, yes.  also the xorg driver will be the wrong one.  two hurdles you need to get over
[10:52] <CarlFK> I just did an update to my dapper box and now A) I am asked to log in (had it set to do that for me) when I do log in, it 'resets' back to the log in scrren
[10:52] <francois> abelstr:
[10:52] <The_PHP_Jedi> Cluster_1, in Ubuntu, if you have the GUI login screen enabled, choose 'change session'
[10:53] <francois> abelstr: ssh: connect to host 156.34.93.155 port 22: Connection refused
[10:53] <CarlFK> and C) it dosn't seem to be doing dhcp, so I can't ssh to it
[10:53] <punisher> ive done that josh
[10:53] <francois> abelstr: i don't know whats wrong, or why ?
[10:53] <IcemanV9> which package does include libtoolize, autoheader, aclocal, automake & autoconf??? (i've already installed build-essential)
[10:53] <kane77> francois, do you have external ip?
[10:53] <shatrat> C41R0, well if you have direct rendering it must be working
[10:53] <abelstr> francois: if I ssh your IP, all is fine.
[10:53] <reap`> I am getting scrambled gfx when i try to boot and install ubuntu6.10 on a nvidia 7800GT(PCI-E) w/ AMD X2 CPU any ideas?(tried both i386 and AMD64 installations)
[10:53] <joshjosh> punisher: hmmm. do a sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx
[10:54] <abelstr> francois: nicely asks for password.
[10:54] <francois> kane77: meaning the ip that the isp gives me? thats what got me a refused connection
[10:54] <Michael_TC> shatrat: what's the usual way to change stuff in bios? (i'm a mac user.)  I rebooted but didn't see a "hold <key>" message or anything.
[10:54] <francois> abelstr: really ?
[10:54] <francois> abelstr: but i can't connec to myself, ?
[10:54] <punisher> josh?
[10:54] <jnk> Hey off topic but... I just got a text message from goosync to configure my nokia, but now I cannot find how to launch the synchronization from the phone... Does anyone have an idea?
[10:54] <shatrat> Michael_TC, push delete, or F8 or F10 or something, I just mash buttons when I havent used the computer before
[10:54] <kane77> francois, for me it's fine too...
[10:54] <Michael_TC> hehe. Ok, I'll try.
[10:54] <francois> oh weird
[10:54] <abelstr> francois: Warning: Permanently added '156.34.93.155' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.

[10:55] <riqz> Ok guys need help here. I have an integrated camera on my laptop... How do i get drivers for it?
[10:55] <riqz> Its a Bison camera
[10:55] <C41R0> shatrat,  oh... is there anyway to test it ? cause i feel nothing after installed it, sorry, im newbie
[10:55] <riqz> bisoncam
[10:55] <francois> abelstr: so any reason why i can't connect from this computer ? to itself ?
[10:55] <grndslm> i know somebody here has used windows as a guest in vmware before...specifically to use windows for usb support.  where y'at?
[10:55] <abelstr> francois: if you use your external IP to connect, it will refuse anyway
[10:55] <abelstr> francois: try ssh localhost
[10:56] <shatrat> C41R0, glxgears in terminal
[10:56] <shatrat> C41R0, or sudo apt-get install chromium
[10:56] <francois> abelstr: well thats just giddy, awsome, because i know localhost works
[10:56] <abelstr> francois: some weird IP thing.
[10:56] <The_PHP_Jedi> hey, can anyone recommend me a *GUI* video converter? transcode doesn't seem to have a GUI interface..
[10:56] <francois> abelstr: any idea how i can figure out what my ip is when i'm not home ?
[10:56] <riqz> anyone?
[10:57] <abelstr> francois: go to a site like 'whatismyip.com'? pretty lame, but I don't have an alternative
[10:57] <ardchoille> francois: http://www.whatismyipaddress.com  ?
[10:57] <francois> haha ok thanks a lot guys
[10:57] <abelstr> np
[10:57] <riqz> Ok guys need help here. I have an integrated camera on my laptop... How do i get drivers for it?
[10:57] <shatrat> riqz, I dont know anything specific about it, but see !webcam for the standard webcam instructions
[10:57] <reap`> I am getting scrambled gfx when i try to boot and install ubuntu6.10 on a nvidia 7800GT(PCI-E) w/ AMD X2 CPU/nforce4 ultra chipset... any ideas?(tried both i386 and AMD64 installations)
[10:57] <Lord_Maynoth> I have a weird question... if I compile a program from source how do I turn it into a deb for my friend?
[10:57] <The_PHP_Jedi> yo, anyone can help me?
[10:57] <C41R0> shatrat, now i feel it, thanks ^^
[10:57] <Kronuz> hey, how's Ubuntu for servers?
[10:57] <riqz> !webcam
[10:57] <ubotu> Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras
[10:57] <abelstr> Lord_Maynoth: use checkinstall
[10:57] <shatrat> reap, sometimes the liveCD is more trouble than it's worth
[10:57] <ardchoille> Lord_Maynoth: There's a tutorial for that.. I'll get you a link..
[10:58] <CarlFK> riqz: figure out what make/model it is.  lsusb is a good start
[10:58] <reap`> how do i avoid live CD?
[10:58] <shatrat> Kronuz, the kernel is more designed for desktops/laptops, but its still better than windows for a server
[10:58] <Kronuz> how easy is it to update software in Ubuntu?
[10:58] <The_PHP_Jedi> Can anyone help me?????????????//
[10:58] <The_PHP_Jedi> very easy, Kronuz
[10:58] <ardchoille> Lord_Maynoth: Or you can use checkinstall as abelstr suggested
[10:58] <The_PHP_Jedi> hey, can anyone recommend me a *GUI* video converter? transcode doesn't seem to have a GUI interface..
[10:58] <Kazz> Anyone have experience with LDM/SFS (windows dynamic disks)?
[10:58] <punisher> its installed josh
[10:58] <punisher> il test it nw
[10:58] <IcemanV9> reap`: get an alternative CD then :)
[10:58] <ardchoille> Lord_Maynoth: http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/index.html
[10:58] <apokryphos> The_PHP_Jedi: please don't abuse punctuation like that.
[10:59] <reap`> ah
[10:59] <Kronuz> I'll need a good editor (like UltraEdit) for linux...
[10:59] <Kazz> Jedi: I don't really know, but I think I saw something about converting video in a player, maybe Totem or mplayer...not sure.
[10:59] <reap`> very good then
[10:59] <reap`> thank you
[10:59] <shatrat> Kronuz, what kind of editor is that?
[10:59] <Michael_TC> geeze.
[10:59] <riqz> carlFK what is lsusb?
[10:59] <Michael_TC> This thing's bios is a trick.
[10:59] <joshjosh> punisher: good luck
[10:59] <ardchoille> Kronuz: I use gedit quite a bit, and it has some good plugins.
[10:59] <Kronuz> I just don't feel very comfortable with vi and much less Emacs
[10:59] <riqz> carlFK: its not a usb camera tho. Its integrated
[10:59] <CarlFK> riqz: a command - list usb
[10:59] <abelstr> Kronuz: but what about gedit then?
[11:00] <CarlFK> riqz: integrated could still use usb
[11:00] <ria_> ja
[11:00] <Lord_Maynoth> ardchoille, thank you!
[11:00] <ardchoille> Lord_Maynoth: You're welcome :)
[11:00] <Allen3373> I'm trying to install linuxant's DriverLoader so I can load a windows driver for my USB Wireless adapter... but I can't figure out how to install it. Can anyone help?
[11:00] <Kronuz> UltraEdit has a way to find something in a lot of files, regexp search and search and replace, text highlight, macros, Hex editor, etc..
[11:00] <francois> abelstr: that website doens't help....i can figure out what my ip is right now when i'm home, thats not a problem but i don't know how to ssh to my computer from work if i don't know my ip if it changes
[11:00] <IcemanV9> anyone? i am trying to compile thinkfinger from source and which package does include libtoolize, autoheader, aclocal, automake & autoconf??? (fyi - i've already installed build-essential)
[11:00] <riqz> carlFK: eh?
[11:00] <jake333> Who knows how to Stream from apache2
[11:00] <Kronuz> abelstr: I haven't used gedit much, looks just like notepad
[11:00] <ardchoille> Kronuz: Sounds much better than gedit
[11:00] <mmartinez> what is the secret to the grail?
[11:00] <kane77> I use VIM!
[11:01] <cefx> jake333: when you configured it, did you include the bit to allow mp3 stuff?
[11:01] <CarlFK> riqz: just because you don't see "a usb cable" doesn't mean it isn't using usb
[11:01] <riqz> !webcam
[11:01] <ubotu> Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras
[11:01] <abelstr> francois: dyndns.org is able to give you a stable URL for a changing IP.
[11:01] <francois> abelstr: oh thank you,
[11:01] <Michael_TC> shatrat: Here in BIOS it says that the Slot 1 card *is* primary.  The onboard is "non-boot"
[11:01] <riqz> carlFK: why would a company integrate a camera and attach it with usb?
[11:01] <Michael_TC> Should I just swap them?
[11:01] <Kronuz> kane77: I use it too, but really not that much, and just for doing simple things... most of my programming I do it in UltraEdit or Visual Studio
[11:01] <CarlFK> riqz: it is cheaper than the alternatives
[11:01] <meezyfuh> how can i install extra video codecs, for some video files i cannot see?
[11:01] <Kronuz> (but those are windows stuff :P)
[11:02] <fernando> hello
[11:02] <shatrat> Michael_TC, that makes sense to me.
[11:02] <CarlFK> riqz: regardless of why, you need to find out what yours is
[11:02] <tj007s13> hi, how is the ubuntu server for game servers? Run ok?
[11:02] <Michael_TC> would I then also need to move the cord to the onboard port?
[11:02] <shatrat> Kronuz, there are tons of integrated development environments available through apt, no reason you cant try them all
[11:02] <shatrat> Michael_TC, definitely
[11:02] <abelstr> tj007s13: depends on the game, after all.
[11:02] <punisher> yo
[11:02] <joshjosh> punisher: Yeah?
[11:02] <K3nto> i think i found an ubuntu bug, or at least something that should be an option. When it shows you the amount of free space on your hard disk, it doesnt take into consideration what you have in your trash. I was deleting things and my free space wasnt changing. I empties the trash and poof! 10gb free.
[11:02] <kane77> Kronuz, I havent found a good gui editor under linux for php/html coding... I like pspad for windows...
[11:02] <tj007s13> abelstr, say CSS aka Counter strike source
[11:02] <joshjosh> punisher: it not work?
[11:02] <PCGenie> how do i get my xchat to keep history so i can look back at the text?
[11:03] <riqz> carlFK: all i know its called bisoncam
[11:03] <punisher> dunno yet just updating my steam client
[11:03] <Allen3373> can anyone help me install DriverLoader so I can get my wireless working?
[11:03] <riqz> carlFK: and tht it comes with asus laptops
[11:03] <K3nto> PCGenie: enable logs
[11:03] <IcemanV9> PCGenie: turn on the log in options
[11:03] <CarlFK> riqz: did you type lsusb?
[11:03] <joshjosh> punisher: You get CS working in ubuntu?
[11:03] <Kronuz> kane77: yeah, looks like there are still things missing in the Linux world :)
[11:03] <punisher> yh  i got steam on css
[11:03] <Kronuz> still a lot of work to do :)
[11:03] <punisher> on ubuntu
[11:03] <K3nto> Kronuz: hows ur installation?
[11:03] <punisher> i mean
[11:03] <meezyfuh> some of my video files will not play, how do i install codecs for them?
[11:04] <riqz> carlFK: in a console?
[11:04] <Kronuz> K3nto: I'm getting the DesktopCD right now
[11:04] <kane77> Kronuz, and I'm on 64bit dapper where a _lot_ more programs miss... :( cant wait for feisty...
[11:04] <CarlFK> riqz: anywhere you think it will work :)
[11:04] <Michael_TC> shatrat: I have a login screen. You're my hero. :-D
[11:04] <K3nto> Kronuz: nice
[11:04] <Kronuz> (I'm getting the x64 version, I hope it works)
[11:04] <abelstr> meezyfuh: what media player? If you're using totem, either install totem-xine or alot of gstreamer0.10-plugins
[11:04] <joshjosh> punisher: Been thinking about trying that myself.
[11:04] <shatrat> Michael_TC, GUI and everything? great
[11:04] <freekymayne> anyone know the generic printer driver for a compaq IJ600?
[11:04] <Kronuz> (I hope it works for me, that is)
[11:04] <Kronuz> ... or should I get the 32 bit version instead? o_O?
[11:04] <punisher> yh i downloaded cross over and the steam client is in there
[11:05] <meezyfuh> abelstr: it is totem. can you tell me how to install the codecs?
[11:05] <shatrat> Michael_TC, intel has documented all their stuff and the open source drivers for it is pretty much 100%
[11:05] <Allen3373> Does ubuntu use RPM package or Debian package?
[11:05] <shatrat> Kronuz, 64 bit is more trouble than it is worth, imo
[11:05] <Anthony_Ryan> long user list in here
[11:05] <Kazz> Debian
[11:05] <riqz> carlFK: sent u the output in pm mate
[11:05] <apokryphos> Allen3373: please take a look at the FAQ <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions> as linked to in the channel /topic.
[11:05] <leo|server> Has anyone got a guide for installing SABnzbd?
[11:05] <Allen3373> ah.. that would be why it's not working. thanks,.
[11:05] <colbert> Hi guys I'm trying to install GRUB to my Sata drive which has Vista installed.. it's /dev/sda, and when I do sudo grub-install /dev/sda and boot it says Grub Boot error.. anyone help ??
[11:05] <carlesoriol> deb
[11:05] <K3nto> Kronuz: you arent getting ubuntu
[11:05] <IcemanV9> Kronuz: from what i've heard, 32 bit is better than 64 bit atm
[11:05] <K3nto> ?
[11:05] <apokryphos> Anthony_Ryan: the largest on Freenode, yes :)
[11:05] <Kronuz> hmm.. I'll get the 32 bit version then :)
[11:05] <abelstr> meezyfuh: sudo aptitude install gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly mpg321 vorbis-tools gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-gl libxine-main1 libxine-extracodecs gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse gstreamer0.10-pitfdll
[11:05] <apokryphos> Kronuz: please read the FAQ!
[11:06] <CarlFK> riqz: don't do that. paste it to the pastes url in the /topic
[11:06] <Michael_TC> shatrat: so should I even worry about getting the extra card working? Or should I just ignore it?
[11:06] <riqz> carlFK: ok sorry
[11:06] <carlesoriol> Allen3373:You can use alien to convert RPM to deb
[11:06] <Michael_TC> Obviously, I'm not playing high end games or anything here. ;-)
[11:06] <abelstr> meezyfuh: you'll need the universe and multiverse repositories enabled though.
[11:06] <Kronuz> apokryphos: I already have, it said about the codecs and stuff
[11:06] <C41R0> hi, is there anyone use downloader x here ?
[11:06] <meezyfuh> abelstr: i don't know what that is.
[11:06] <shatrat> Michael_TC, I'd ignore it. the intel should be much more stable...assuming thats the problem
[11:06] <apokryphos> Kronuz: it also answers your 32bit vs 64bit question.
[11:06] <CarlFK> riqz: also, guess you aren't registered with freenode, cuz I didn't get anything
[11:06] <freekymayne> Can anyone help me? I need to know the generic driver for a compaq IJ600 printer.
[11:06] <IcemanV9> Kronuz: i hope someday 64 bit will shine over 32 bit (soon!)
[11:06] <riqz> carlFK: yeh havnt figured out how to register yet
[11:06] <Michael_TC> shatrat: one last thing. Now that I *have* graphics, should I re-run the xorgconfig?
[11:06] <Allen3373> carlesoriol: nah, there is a deb version of driverloader. thanks
[11:07] <Michael_TC> And how do I do so from within the GUI? :-D
[11:07] <Kronuz> getting i386 now
[11:07] <abelstr> !sources
[11:07] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[11:07] <shatrat> Michael_TC, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg

[11:07] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[11:07] <shatrat> Michael_TC, make sure its using the intel driver and not some fallback like vesa
[11:07] <PCGenie> k31th, IcemanV9 ok, i am not seeing Options. where is it?
[11:07] <C41R0> !downloader x
[11:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about downloader x - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:07] <riqz> carlFK: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8848/
[11:07] <Kronuz> is there a howto with a list of "useful" programs to install?
[11:08] <Michael_TC> shatrat: re: sudo.
[11:08] <abelstr> meezyfuh: open a terminal, type in 'sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list' and delete the # signs at the beginning of each line containing 'deb' and an URL.
[11:08] <Michael_TC> When I installed, it didn't ask for a root password, only for my user one.
[11:08] <apokryphos> Michael_TC: please take a look at the FAQ <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions> as linked to in the channel /topic.
[11:08] <PCGenie> kane77, how long have you been on dapper 64bit: i installed it about three weeks ago and am still working on install issues
[11:08] <shatrat> Michael_TC, there is no root using in ubuntu.  see !sudo or !root
[11:08] <meezyfuh> abelstr: i already started the install thingy you pasted. can i do that after this stuff installs?
[11:08] <Michael_TC> Ahh. Thanks much. :-D
[11:08] <riqz> Also... Anyone know how to make firefox the default browser?
[11:08] <Kronuz> (like how to get Ubuntu working with a list most used programs or something like that?)
[11:08] <Linux_Junkie> PCGenie: i had the same prob with ubuntu 64
[11:09] <abelstr> meezyfuh: if it's already installing, that's fine, you don't need to do anything else.
[11:09] <apokryphos> riqz: it is the default.
[11:09] <kane77> PCGenie, why did you install dapper?
[11:09] <meezyfuh> abelstr: so i don't need to sudo nano thing?
[11:09] <apokryphos> Kronuz: the most used programs are installed already.
[11:09] <riqz> apokryphos no for some reason my default is mozilla
[11:09] <kane77> PCGenie, I've been on dapper ever since it came out
[11:09] <shatrat> Kronuz, check http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html
[11:09] <abelstr> meezyfuh: no, if it's busy installing the bunch of packages, you don't need to.
[11:09] <Linux_Junkie> PCGenie: i did edgy eft but i don't really think ubuntu has great 64 bit support yet.
[11:09] <riqz> apokryphos: when i click on links in xchat it sends it to mozilla
[11:09] <n-iCe> !firefox
[11:09] <ubotu> firefox is the default web-browser on Ubuntu. To install the latest version, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion Installing plugins: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxPlugins
[11:09] <riqz> carlFK: was tht usefull?
[11:09] <PCGenie> kane77, what about 64bit?
[11:09] <abelstr> meezyfuh: because that means the universe and multiverse repositories are already enabled, so you don't need to enable them anymore.
[11:10] <omarete> alguien habla espaol?
[11:10] <apokryphos> riqz: I don't know about changing the default in gnome, sorry
[11:10] <apokryphos> !es | omarete
[11:10] <ubotu> omarete: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[11:10] <CarlFK> riqz: kinda.  buch of stuff there.  trying to figure out the lsusb switch to show more details
[11:10] <meezyfuh> abelstr: it's still saying it can't play it.
[11:10] <omarete> orale gracias jeje
[11:10] <kane77> PCGenie, a bit less... dont remeber precisely but I'd say since this summer...
[11:10] <theone2k> RAH Ubuntu Wireless Network Tut ROCKS :D
[11:10] <abelstr> meezyfuh: is the command finished? and may I ask, what type of stream is it?
[11:10] <joshjosh> PCGenie: 64 bit was a pain for me. I couldn't get alot of plugins to work (flash etc) so I just went with the 32 bit version :(
[11:10] <ubuntu> hello, I have troubles with my /home folder... its on a different partition but the partition has now an error... right now I m using the live cd and execute fsck /v /dev/sda4  .... is this the best approach_
[11:10] <lesshaste>  I am trying to follow the instructions at http://www.videolan.org/doc/streaming-howto/en/ch02.html .  I chose http but I get [00000233]  main playlist: nothing to play
[11:10] <lesshaste>  any ideas?
[11:10] <Linux_Junkie> PCGenie: i went gentoo.
[11:10] <meezyfuh> abelstr: can we go pm if you don't mind?
[11:10] <tj007s13> anyone in here know alot about the Ubuntu server edition that is willing to answer a few questions?
[11:10] <abelstr> meezyfuh: ok
[11:11] <CarlFK> riqz: duh lsusb -v
[11:11] <codpair> hey, if anyone remembers me, im the guy with error 18, i change the size of the boot, and now i get error 17
[11:11] <PCGenie> Linux_Junkie, due to 64bit?
[11:11] <riqz> carlFK: lol
[11:11] <Kronuz> I'd love to have a way to download just a small installation image and have it get everything else from the Internet during the install process :P
[11:11] <Linux_Junkie> PCGenie: yeah.
[11:11] <cefx> PCGenie: might want to try Debian 4.0 when it is released :)
[11:11] <PCGenie> kane77, did you stablize your 64bit on your dappy?
[11:11] <Linux_Junkie> PCGenie: installed edgy eft and i couldn't get everything working.
[11:11] <FidelCapslock> Greetings; I'm seeking information regarding installing/booting from an USB memory stick (type Kingston Datatraveler 4GB). If anyone could provide me with information, I would be most greatful
[11:11] <CarlFK> riqz:  lsusb -v <-lots of output - know how to use less?
[11:11] <PCGenie> cefx, what is the advantage of Debian 4?
[11:11] <apokryphos> Kronuz: you still need to install some other stuff to really get going (mp3, etc)
[11:12] <cefx> PCGenie: read the update notes :)
[11:12] <edwin> Hi I just had a small problem with a Feisty (Herd 5) install
[11:12] <superkirbyartist> Good afternoon everyone.  My computer slows down to a crawl at random moments, with random applications.  Can someone help me please?
[11:12] <kane77> PCGenie, yes although now I have some issues with network... (disapearing dns's)
[11:12] <joshjosh> hmm. there's an article on digg about getting a 16 sided desktop in beryl. hahaha. how ridiculous
[11:12] <riqz> carlFK: lol dude it wont even all fit in the console
[11:12] <apokryphos> edwin: /msg ubotu feisty
[11:12] <cefx> we run debian 3.1 on our 64bit dualcore opteron box
[11:12] <dszabo> Is there any plugin to get Evolution to work with the mail-notification app?
[11:12] <CarlFK> riqz:  lsusb -v |less
[11:12] <IcemanV9> edwin: please go to #ubuntu+1 (feisty support)
[11:12] <edwin> I have a dual boot system (Windows partition) and after the partitioning stage I get to Migration manager
[11:12] <apokryphos> joshjosh: that's been possible for months.
[11:12] <codpair> i get error 17 when i try to boot up without live cd
[11:12] <edwin> and it hangs at that point, that is, it doesn't complete the step
[11:12] <ardchoille> riqz: lsusb -v | less
[11:12] <joshjosh> apokrophos: I don't mess with beryl much. That's just outrageous
[11:13] <edwin> still responsive, but cancelling just cancels the install
[11:13] <superkirbyartist> My computer slows down, it takes forever to do anything, I use it for work.
[11:13] <apokryphos> joshjosh: depends on how you use your computer. I know people who have genuine use for it.
[11:13] <edwin> any ideas how to skip the step or if this is a known issue being fixed?
[11:13] <gandalf> thx for the help and weblinks josh got the internet working now ::d
[11:13] <joshjosh> apokryphos: Seriously? Man...
[11:13] <dszabo> I have exchange server configured with Evolution 2.8.  Any way for a tray mail notification when new mail when Evolution is closed?
[11:13] <PCGenie> cefx, do you have a link for those notes?
[11:13] <AlteredBeast> suggestions for installing when video is messed up with live CD?
[11:14] <superkirbyartist> Anyone can please help me?  During these slowdowns, my hard drive hums endlessly.
[11:14] <PCGenie> cefx, you say we, are you an org?
[11:14] <Michael_TC> Well, I'm going to go buy a mouse now if i can find one. (only have a 1-button. :-D)
[11:14] <Michael_TC> Thanks so much for your help, shatrat.
[11:14] <IcemanV9> AlteredBeast: use an alternative CD
[11:14] <superkirbyartist> It is probably a virus.
[11:14] <joshjosh> AlteredBeast: what's the problem?
[11:14] <AlteredBeast> alternative CD?
[11:14] <nickweb> right guys and gals, a quickie. Im using a broadcom 43xx card built into my laptop. Using the details in the wiki, I've managed to get it working. I just restarted there and my net connection was gone. I went to Netmanager, and it showed the connection as active. Once I clicked Ok, it said it was activating eth1, and then it started. Is there anyway to ensure thats automated at startup? Cheers! N
[11:15] <superkirbyartist> Come on, guys... please?
[11:15] <dszabo> Any tray app for new mail notification when evolution is closed?
[11:15] <Ferret> superkirbyartist: check 'top' and 'ps axf'
[11:15] <riqz> carlFK: lol mate forget it... its like 50 pages long
[11:15] <Lord_Maynoth> how do you use unsermake in ubuntu
[11:15] <Lord_Maynoth> ?
[11:16] <IcemanV9> AlteredBeast: you'll see on the download page .. there are a few different isos (alternative is one of them) to install Ubuntu
[11:16] <abelstr> Lord_Maynoth: unsermake?
[11:16] <funkyHat> Anyone using an Airport Express with WEP managed to get Ubuntu to connect to it?
[11:16] <Lord_Maynoth> or makeobj
[11:16] <CarlFK> riqz: see if you have xclip installed
[11:16] <Lord_Maynoth> ?
[11:16] <joshjosh> AlteredBeast: describe what you mean by video troubles?
[11:16] <AlteredBeast> joshjosh: really hard to explain
[11:16] <superkirbyartist> Ferret, top gives a lot of crap.
[11:16] <PCGenie> is feisty the next version?
[11:16] <AlteredBeast> but the display is split into about 1/4s
[11:16] <Artemis3> yes
[11:16] <erUSUL> !feisty
[11:16] <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
[11:16] <AlteredBeast> vertically
[11:16] <superkirbyartist> Ferret, so does ps axf
[11:16] <AlteredBeast> and the sections aren't in order
[11:17] <joshjosh> AlteredBeast: did you try booting with noapic nolapic flag?
[11:17] <AlteredBeast> like the 2nd panel is repeated in the 4th
[11:17] <AlteredBeast> etc
[11:17] <Lord_Maynoth> I finished ./configure successfully
[11:17] <AlteredBeast> no, not sure how to do that
[11:17] <superkirbyartist> Ferret, what are we supposed to be looking for?
[11:17] <codpair> dose anybody know how to fix error 17 during GRUB while starting up?
[11:17] <Lord_Maynoth> but when I "make" it says to use unsermake or makeobj instead
[11:17] <CarlFK> riqz: or figure out what each of those usb devices are.  - 2 should be obvious :)
[11:18] <kane77> are there any statistics for this channel?
[11:18] <mEck0> My laptop HP Pavilion DV6184ea has a high pitched/buzzing sound, its about 2 weeks. First I thought something was wrong on it, but read this: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00385615&cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&product=3289625&dlc=en&lang=en So most of the laptops has this sound, but how can I make the sound lower? I mean in ubuntu? A guy had the same "problem" with his Dell, and he said something about disable the powersave
[11:18] <mEck0> function on the usb-ports did the sound much lower?
[11:18] <dszabo> PLEASE, can someone help me with an Evolution new mail tray notify app???
[11:18] <superkirbyartist> Ferret... I have 255138kb of ram, but 248124kb used!

[11:20] <superkirbyartist> Ferret: What do I look for?
[11:20] <dszabo> *Exchange mail checker
[11:20] <abelstr> harman: it should be in /etc/apt/sources.list already, commented out. Edit the file and remove the # sign
[11:20] <codpair> abelstr:your talking to a noobie at this, i have no idea what u mean
[11:20] <punisher> kkk
[11:20] <superkirbyartist> dszabo: Exchange?
[11:20] <harman> ok
[11:20] <|jon|> k3b only does iso

[11:21] <dromer> I'm not sure on how this is ok to ask in thu ubuntu community: how can I make an iso from a dvd?

[11:22] <|jon|> sorry i was looking at different prog k3b does burn them thanks so much
[11:22] <abelstr> harman: is it's already in the /etc/apt/sources.list with no # sign in front of it, it's used. You'll need to 'sudo apt-get update' to install packages from it.
[11:22] <harman> k
[11:23] <superkirbyartist> Guys what do I do with top?  He wants me to check for something.
[11:23] <superkirbyartist> razormadeZ: to create one go to  my.sipphone.com
[11:23] <codpair> abelstr:how do i fix it?
[11:23] <superkirbyartist> MEMORY LEAK!
[11:23] <abelstr> codpair: the error means basically either your Ubuntu partition is empty or broken, or the wrong partition is selected in the configuration.
[11:23] <dszabo> superkirbyartist: I got the mail-notification app but It wants me to install some plugin for Evolution, I don't know here to go from here
[11:23] <PCGenie> am off looking at fiesty
[11:23] <abelstr> codpair: when did the error start to occur?
[11:23] <superkirbyartist> dszabo: I think that yes, you should install plugin.
[11:23] <codpair> abelstr:during GRUB
[11:24] <superkirbyartist> Everyone, I have a memory leak.  Can anyone help please?
[11:24] <abelstr> codpair: First time you tried to boot Ubuntu? I mean, immediately after install?
[11:24] <razormadeZ> superkirbyartist, Account is already made. I'll like to test with someone who has a set up already a Softphone.
[11:24] <dszabo> superkirbyartist: I don't know what plugin it's talking about.  Been over the ubuntu and evolution sites and google and no luck.
[11:24] <ardchoille> dszabo: Is this in regard to beagle?
[11:24] <superkirbyartist> razormadeZ: PM your phone number.
[11:24] <dszabo> Evolution running against Microsoft Exchange server.
[11:24] <ardchoille> Ah, ok
[11:25] <ajaaya>  |jon|:np
[11:25] <razormadeZ> superkirbyartist, ok
[11:25] <|jon|> is *img just an iso with a differerent extention?
[11:25] <codpair> abelstr:not the first time, before i was getting error 18, then re installed with smaller boot sector and i get this
[11:25] <superkirbyartist> BOO MICROSOFT!
[11:25] <ardchoille> lol
[11:25] <dszabo> I know, but it's the only thing they'll use :P
[11:25] <Kronuz> hey, what about comparison programs? i.e. graphical diff (like Araxis Merge in Windows)
[11:26] <superkirbyartist> razormadeZ you get to see my nice Kubuntu CD.
[11:26] <ardchoille> Kronuz: for gnome? meld

[11:26] <Kronuz> (I'm just trying to figure out if I'll have everything to stop using Vista before I go to Linux)

[11:26] <Allen3373> I'm trying to install driverloader but it says I'm not superuser, can someone helP??

[11:26] <dszabo> allen3373: Try using sudo
[11:27] <Jowi> !sudo | Allen3373
[11:27] <Allen3373> how do I do that?
[11:27] <ubotu> Allen3373: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[11:27] <superkirbyartist> razormadeZ I cannot see them private messages.
[11:27] <Kronuz> and like AbiWord but as Excel, not Word?
[11:27] <ardchoille> Kronuz: I use gnome daily on 11 machines. I can possibly help with alternative apps.
[11:27] <dszabo> allen3373: If you're using a terminal command, put 'sudo' before it, without quotes.
[11:27] <noldon> !ubutu format harddrive
[11:27] <Kronuz> (not Open Office)
[11:27] <abelstr> codpair: if you use the Live CD to boot the computer, you might be able to provide some valuable information.
[11:27] <superkirbyartist> razormadeZ try again.
[11:27] <Allen3373> thanks!
[11:27] <noldon> how do i ask ubutu

[11:28] <ardchoille> Kronuz: You're welcome :)
[11:28] <dszabo> Kay guys, any info on the Evolution/Exchange issue?
[11:28] <superkirbyartist> Kronuz: I have 256MB.
[11:28] <superkirbyartist> Kronuz: It shouldn't leak.
[11:28] <abelstr> codpair: can you post the output of 'sudo fdisk -l'?
[11:28] <Jowi> noldon, it is recommended to "play" with ubotu through private /msg
[11:28] <Jowi> :)
[11:28] <slvmchn> can anyone help me, since i upgraded ubuntu now i can only run one torrent at a time, i get the error "address already in use" when i try to run a second torrent... before i upgraded i could run as many as i wanted no problem, so i don't know what's causing this
[11:28] <ardchoille> Kronuz: For a spreadsheet app, you might want either OpenOffice.org calc or gnumeric.
[11:28] <codpair> ablestr:english please
[11:29] <gkellycs> i have a question regarding read and write access on a hard driver
[11:29] <Jowi> slvmchn, silly setting in gconf-editor
[11:29] <gkellycs> *drive
[11:29] <ajaaya> |jon|: See here: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_Xgl.2FBeryl_.28ATI.29
[11:29] <dszabo> |jon|: Go to System, Preferences, Sessions, click the startup programs tab, click add, type in beryl-manager
[11:29] <noldon> jovi ok
[11:29] <Kronuz> no AbiCalc? ^_^
[11:29] <abelstr> codpair: can you open a terminal from the applications menu (under Utilities), then type 'sudo fdisk -l' and paste the output for me?
[11:29] <superkirbyartist> Please it is at 75% used!
[11:29] <superkirbyartist> I need to lower that!
[11:29] <superkirbyartist> Openoffice.org crashes!
[11:29] <zackglennie_> ok, is there some sort of system-restoring command in ubuntu?  I'm net-connected and everything seems to be working fine, but I just nuked my /usr folder....
[11:29] <ardchoille> !abicalc
[11:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about abicalc - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:29] <Kronuz> ardchoille: AbiCalc would be good to have :P
[11:29] <gkellycs> i have a hard drive that is NTFS with my music on it, i would like to delete files from it
[11:30] <Jowi> slvmchn, run "gconf-editor" and go to /apps/gnome-btdownload/settings. set max_port to 6889
[11:30] <ardchoille> Kronuz: I don't see it in the repos
[11:30] <dszabo> gkellycs: Try researching ntfs-3g.
[11:30] <Kronuz> hey, and how do you activate your Ubuntu?
[11:30] <gkellycs> but it is not letting me delete anything, even when i try to change the properties to allow read and write from my user account
[11:30] <Kronuz> j/k
[11:30] <ardchoille> Kronuz: You can always search for an Ubuntu .deb or compile it yourself.
[11:30] <slvmchn> thanks jowi... hey you helped me again, you're an ubuntu pro ;-)
[11:30] <ardchoille> Kronuz: Activate Ubuntu?
[11:30] <codpair> abelstr:  sudo: fdisk-1: command not found
[11:30] <trakz> for what it's worth, in my opinion, the folks who take the time to answer questions are saints and should be getting paid.
[11:30] <ardchoille> lol
[11:30] <Kronuz> lol
[11:30] <dszabo> Kronuz: Ubuntu doesn't need to be "Activated".  it is free software with no license.
[11:31] <apokryphos> codpair: it's sudo fdisk -l   (lowercase L)
[11:31] <OmegaNine> Is there a .deb to move MS fonts over to Ubuntu?
[11:31] <Jowi> slvmchn, sorry. I will be more discreet next time ;)
[11:31] <gkellycs> can someone help me with read write access problem?
[11:31] <abelstr> codpair: sudo fdisk -l                            the l is an L, not capital, but L. notice the space between fdisk and -l
[11:31] <erUSUL> !info gnumeric
[11:31] <gkellycs> can someone help me with read write access problem?
[11:31] <ardchoille> !msttcorefonts
[11:31] <zackglennie_> OmegaNine: if you have them in a different partition, it's easier just to import them from there.
[11:31] <ubotu> gnumeric: GNOME spreadsheet application. In component main, is optional. Version 1.7.0-1ubuntu4 (edgy), package size 2081 kB, installed size 5876 kB
[11:31] <ubotu> msttcorefonts: Installer for Microsoft TrueType core fonts. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1.2ubuntu3 (edgy), package size 22 kB, installed size 164 kB
[11:31] <Kronuz> and so it will work past the 30 days grace period?
[11:31] <irunwithscissors> gkellys whats the problem
[11:31] <ardchoille> OmegaNine: ^^
[11:31] <superkirbyartist> MEMORY LEAK!
[11:31] <Kronuz> dszabo: (I'm just kidding)
[11:31] <dszabo> gkellycs: check out http://www.ntfs-3g.org/
[11:31] <gkellycs> well i have this hard drive that is NTFS
[11:32] <superkirbyartist> Anyone can help me with the memory leaks please?
[11:32] <slvmchn> hey, discreet, indiscreet, it's all the same as long as the problem gets fixed ;-) thanks jowi
[11:32] <ardchoille> Kronuz: No grace period, this is free stuff.. works forever.
[11:32] <erUSUL> !caps > superkirbyartist
[11:32] <OmegaNine> Cool, what dir do i move them to?
[11:32] <gkellycs> but it is not letting me delete stuff from it
[11:32] <codpair> :abelstr:  ok, got output, how do i send it?
[11:32] <Jowi> no probs slvmchn
[11:32] <irunwithscissors> ok so
[11:32] <abelstr> codpair: private message me, just paste it in there
[11:32] <apokryphos> !pastebin | codpair
[11:32] <ubotu> codpair: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[11:32] <dszabo> gkellycs: USE THAT LINK, YOU NEED THE NTFS-3G PLUGIN.
[11:32] <Kronuz> ardchoille: but, but, but...
[11:32] <irunwithscissors> right click on the hard drive and click permissions: what access do you have?
[11:32] <gkellycs> i tried changing it, yet it changes it back. Ok cool
[11:32] <apokryphos> !caps | dszabo
[11:32] <ubotu> dszabo: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[11:32] <gkellycs> ty i will look at the website
[11:32] <zackglennie_> hello?  how can I repair the essential files (like apt-get...) to my ubuntu install?
[11:33] <superkirbyartist> The memory is 75% used and only beryl, gaim and xchat is opened.
[11:33] <razormadeZ> superkirbyartist, it is 809644
[11:33] <ardchoille> abelstr: codpair isn't identified to nickserv, he/she won't be able to pm you
[11:33] <Kronuz> ardchoille: j/k (I should start reading about getting my RAID working) ^_^
[11:33] <apokryphos> zackglennie_: repair?
[11:33] <abelstr> ah
[11:33] <ardchoille> Kronuz: hahaha
[11:33] <superkirbyartist> razormadeZ that's not a sip number.
[11:33] <farski> if I want to add a new action to a controller that's set up with nested map.resources, what's the easiest way to do that
[11:33] <farski> ?
[11:33] <zackglennie_> apokryphos: I removed most of /usr by accident
[11:33] <Jowi> superkirbyartist, what make you think it is a leak?
[11:33] <apokryphos> ...
[11:33] <razormadeZ> superkirbyartist, it is my FWD number
[11:33] <ardchoille> abelstr: You and he can always join #abelstr or #codpair
[11:33] <Prometheum> Hello, I have broken my modules somehow. None of my modules can load, such as the nvidia kernel mod, bcm43xx, ndiswrapper, and various others that appear only as error messages. Is there some way to use dkpg or another utility to repair my module system?
[11:34] <dszabo> Please, anyone can help with Evolution using Exchange, a new mail tray notify app?
[11:34] <razormadeZ> superkirbyartist, ill check again
[11:34] <abelstr> codpair: join #codpair
[11:34] <erUSUL> Prometheum: how have you broken the module system, what have you done?
[11:34] <zackglennie_> apokryphos: yes, it's a big mistake.  "tar" still seems to work, maybe I can download an archive to install?
[11:35] <Lord_Maynoth> does this make sense to anyone? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8849/
[11:35] <apokryphos> zackglennie_: is your /home on a seperate partition?
[11:35] <LiENUS> are there any wysiwyg html editors for ubuntu?
[11:35] <grayman> !xgl
[11:35] <ubotu> 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
[11:35] <Prometheum> well, I kept crashing and having to hard-shutoff while running the dist-upgrade utility. This happed about 3 times, then when I tried to rmmod bcm43xx, it wouldn't let me.
[11:35] <abelstr> codpair: do you know how to join a channel? type /join #codpair in here.
[11:35] <Anohaakten> can I get some help on installing files on ubuntu?
[11:35] <codpair> abelstr:how do i do that
[11:35] <Prometheum> I accidentaly did depmod bcm43xx before that, would that have cause anything?
[11:35] <raven3x7> LiENUS, quanta has somw wysiwig features
[11:35] <shatrat> LiENUS, theres bluefish
[11:35] <superkirbyartist> I'm serious.  My computer's using too much memory (189MB out of 249MB).
[11:35] <apokryphos> abelstr: why not use a pastebin?
[11:35] <Anohaakten> how the crap, do you install a freakin file on linux
[11:35] <Anohaakten> honestly...
[11:35] <CarlFK> LiENUS: nvu
[11:36] <LiENUS> i want to prototype a user interface in it
[11:36] <raven3x7> shatrat, bluefish is really not wysiwyg
[11:36] <ardchoille> Lord_Maynoth: Unless you have a specific need, you shouldn't use sudo for ./configure or mkae.. it's only needed for make install
[11:36] <shatrat> superkirbyartist, what good is empty memory? good software is like a gas, it uses up the memory available to run faster
[11:36] <LiENUS> the ui will be done in C# with winforms
[11:36] <apokryphos> Anohaakten: please take a look at the FAQ <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions> as linked to in the channel /topic.
[11:36] <LiENUS> right now im just prototyping
[11:36] <gkellycs> how do i find out what type of fuse i have or if i have it at all?
[11:36] <Q_Continuum> For some reason when I start Azureus, it quits after a minute or so.  (Installed via repos)
[11:36] <gkellycs> how do i find out what type of fuse i have or if i have it at all?
[11:36] <LiENUS> whats a quick and easy editor to use?
[11:36] <Jowi> superkirbyartist, it is good that the system uses the RAM. see !memory
[11:36] <razormadeZ> superkirbyartist: i'll think it should be: sip:pvdlaan@ekiga.net
[11:36] <shatrat> raven3x7, ah, I thought it was.  I dont do any web dev obviously
[11:36] <irunwithscissors> what channel should i join for help with Beryl?
[11:36] <gkellycs> scissors
[11:36] <ardchoille> LiENUS: gedit (gnome) kate (kde)
[11:36] <gkellycs> i have installed beryl, i can help you if you used nvidia
[11:36] <Jowi> irunwithscissors, #ubuntu-effects
[11:36] <irunwithscissors> ok
[11:36] <superkirbyartist> Shatrat, Jowi: It crashes OpenOffice.org, Firefox, Rythmbox, etc.
[11:37] <happyface0> look at the beryl wiki on theit site, its very straight forward
[11:37] <dszabo> So noone will help me.  That's cool, I'll just go and not have it fixed.  Go back to Windows if I have to, maybe, probably.
[11:37] <gkellycs> do you have nvidia graphics?
[11:37] <LiENUS> ardchoille,  gedit is not wysiwyg
[11:37] <irunwithscissors> yes
[11:37] <CarlFK> LiENUS: nvu
[11:37] <gkellycs> ok
[11:37] <psyne> dszabo what is the problem
[11:37] <gkellycs> whats the os you have
[11:37] <gkellycs> for ubuntu
[11:37] <tonyyarusso> LiENUS: Nvu is worth a look
[11:37] <ardchoille> LiENUS: Oh, sorry, I thought you meant text. What do you need to edit? webpages?
[11:37] <irunwithscissors> im using 6.1
[11:37] <_Krull_> Hey guys, achive manager says "archive  type not supported" and the theme I downloaded is a gzip
[11:37] <gkellycs> http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/BerylOnEdgy#Option_2:
[11:37] <raven3x7> ardchoille, lienus gedit sucks compared to kate if you're coding
[11:37] <gkellycs> look at that link
[11:37] <ardchoille> irunwithscissors: No you're not, you're using 6.10
[11:38] <irunwithscissors> i have beryl installed and everything
[11:38] <Lord_Maynoth> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8850/  I tried it with just make but still the same error
[11:38] <irunwithscissors> sorry
[11:38] <ardchoille> raven3x7: Agreed
[11:38] <Jowi> superkirbyartist, if you suspect a leak (and not just bad RAM) try to find as much info as possible of which app that is causing it and report a !bug
[11:38] <LiENUS> raven3x7, i'm doing a ui prototype in html to send to the customer
[11:38] <irunwithscissors> but when i try to open beryl manager, nothing happens.
[11:38] <LiENUS> im not coding
[11:38] <gkellycs> you type in terminal?
[11:38] <gkellycs> beryl-manager
[11:38] <irunwithscissors> let me try that
[11:38] <punisher> yh i need help installin nvidia
[11:38] <Prometheum> Can anyone help me? I somehow broke my module system. Is there any way to reload/reconfigure it?
[11:38] <Anohaakten> can I just get some help from a specific person on how to install a file
[11:38] <Anohaakten> honestly...
[11:38] <razormadeZ> superkirbyartist, i cannot hear you
[11:39] <punisher> i have geforce 7300
[11:39] <punisher> le
[11:39] <erUSUL> ubotu tell punisher about nvidia | punisher see priv msg from ubotu
[11:39] <ardchoille> Lord_Maynoth: That is weird
[11:39] <irunwithscissors> ok that brings up the context menu, but i need to open that main menu that lets you change the settings
[11:39] <raven3x7> lienus nvu, quanta and bluefish those are your choices. nvu is the simplest of the 3
[11:39] <gkellycs> ok
[11:39] <gkellycs> so you have the pink diamond?
[11:39] <voraistos> Hey guys. Do you know how i can ask make to output to another directory (than the source files)?
[11:39] <superkirbyartist> razormadeZ: I am not speaking, but I can make noise.
[11:39] <irunwithscissors> indeed
[11:39] <gkellycs> ok, right click on it
[11:39] <irunwithscissors> it's set to startup
[11:39] <Lord_Maynoth> I am installing unsermake maybe that will fix it
[11:39] <gkellycs> and choose settings
[11:39] <gkellycs> *beryl setings manager
[11:39] <irunwithscissors> exactly...nothing happens after i clik that
[11:39] <Anohaakten> who in here can i pm and talk to?
[11:39] <LiENUS> i dont even intend to do the final coding on linux since the customer runs windows :/
[11:39] <happyface0> How come I get 1/2 second lag spikes every 15 seconds when running Quake 3 (or any other game) in linux? I only have Gaim open...
[11:39] <irunwithscissors> click*
[11:39] <superkirbyartist> razormadeZ: Did you hear taps?
[11:40] <erUSUL> !pm > Anohaakten
[11:40] <gkellycs> hmmmm
[11:40] <xyz359> Hey guys, is there libdvdcss2 in the Edgy repository? =P
[11:40] <superkirbyartist> razormadeZ: Do you hear blowing?
[11:40] <gkellycs> hold ctrl and alt
[11:40] <Jowi> irunwithscissors, "beryl-manager" starts the window manager. "beryl-settings" for configuration.
[11:40] <riqz> fellas how do i register to freenode?
[11:40] <gkellycs> and press the left arrow key
[11:40] <azazel00> Anohaakten, check your PM
[11:40] <xyz359> VLC won't play an encrypted DVD.
[11:40] <erUSUL> !dvd > xyz359
[11:40] <gkellycs> and see if its on another desktop
[11:40] <Anohaakten> ok
[11:40] <razormadeZ> superkirbyartist, i cannot hear you
[11:40] <Anohaakten> so can I pm someone in here?
[11:40] <raven3x7> xyz359, no you need to get it from a 3rd party
[11:40] <Anohaakten> that is the question
[11:40] <Anohaakten> I am asking you
[11:40] <punisher> cn some 1 help me
[11:40] <xyz359> raven3x7: Where at dude?
[11:40] <Jowi> ubotu, tell xyz359 about dvd
[11:40] <razormadeZ> superkirbyartist, bell works
[11:40] <superkirbyartist> razormadeZ Can you see anything?
[11:40] <ardchoille> xyz359: Did you install libdvdcss2 ?
[11:41] <irunwithscissors> it's not on another desktop
[11:41] <_Krull_> DOES Achive  Manager handle x-gzip?
[11:41] <gkellycs> it spins?
[11:41] <gkellycs> you have the cube?
[11:41] <irunwithscissors> yes
[11:41] <xyz359> ardchoille: Yep, I sure did. Got it from the VideoLAN dapper repo even though I'm on edgy.
[11:41] <gkellycs> ok go to applications
[11:41] <gkellycs> system tools
[11:41] <superkirbyartist> razormadeZ: Check your Ekiga Chat.
[11:41] <ardchoille> xyz359: Hmm.. ok
[11:41] <razormadeZ> superkirbyartist, seems call is made, but that's all
[11:41] <gkellycs> then choose the settings there
[11:41] <xyz359> I get "vlc: vm.c:219: ifoOpenNewVTSI: Assertion `0' failed." when trying to run a DVD, though.
[11:41] <irunwithscissors> still nothing
[11:41] <gkellycs> weird.... Hmmmm
[11:42] <irunwithscissors> yeah
[11:42] <gkellycs> you have the correct nvidia drivers?
[11:42] <francois> whats the command to see what other users are typing via ssh ?
[11:42] <raven3x7> xyz359, the repo is listed in th community section of wiki.ubuntu.org
[11:42] <irunwithscissors> i opened it up the first time but after that i haven't been able to
[11:42] <abelstr> francois: impossible
[11:42] <xyz359> raven3x7: Ahh, thanks. Let me check that out real quick.
[11:42] <francois> abelstr: really ? that blows :(
[11:42] <abelstr> francois: you could change the logging type in /etc/ssh/sshd_config though, to report EVERYTHING.
[11:42] <gkellycs> take it off of startup
[11:42] <irunwithscissors> i would think i have the right drivers as all the graphics etc. work correctly, just cant open that window
[11:42] <gkellycs> and type it into console
[11:42] <happyface0> How come I get 1/2 second lag spikes every 15 seconds when running Quake 3 (or any other game) in linux? I only have Gaim open...
[11:42] <gkellycs> beryl-manager
[11:42] <abelstr> francois: but that screws privacy.
[11:42] <gkellycs> take it off of startup
[11:42] <gkellycs> restart
[11:42] <francois> abelstr: report everything ? and that does what ?
[11:43] <irunwithscissors> how do i remove it from startup
[11:43] <gkellycs> and type it in console to start it up
[11:43] <razormadeZ> superkirbyartist: Ekiga chat give: Error: User not found

[11:43] <julesa> I set up a new box and didn't get a chance to do the networking. Now how do I get it rocking? This is the LTS edition without a GUI...
[11:43] <abelstr> francois: yes, it makes a log anyways, always, but the amount of logged data can be changed.
[11:43] <irunwithscissors> ok
[11:44] <gkellycs> you see it?
[11:44] <irunwithscissors> yeah
[11:44] <gkellycs> beryl manager?

[11:45] <jexdawg> is it possible to remove desktop icons, leaving only the text as a link to the directory? basically, make it just the text without an image on top of it?
[11:45] <bigjohnto> hey if you image a partition for instance /dev/sda2 and then you recreate partiotion /dev/sda2 to be 20 gigs instead of the original 10 gigs, then you reload the image onto the 20 gig partition,,,, do you loose the extra disk space? is it better just tobackup the files and load them manually onto the parititon?
[11:45] <Jowi> superkirbyartist, the last link is pretty fun. it list memory usage for gnome + oowriter (196 MB) and gnome + firefox etc etc.
[11:46] <bigjohnto> ?????
[11:46] <abelstr> bigjohnto: depends on the method of imaging a partition
[11:46] <bigjohnto> g4l

[11:46] <ardchoille> raven3x7: This is a non-alcoholic channel ;)
[11:46] <zackglennie_> apokryphos: sorry, I didn't notice that message from you (I should get a better irc client).  my /home is not on a separate partition, and there is an additional complication.  I don't have a working cd drive, so it would be a pain to just rebuild from scratch.
[11:47] <kelsin> raven3x7: There is, you should get it from the budget-something repo listed on winehq.com
[11:47] <kelsin> raven3x7: newer version
[11:47] <Lord_Maynoth> do you guys think ext4 will be the default FS in feisty?
[11:47] <superkirbyartist> Jowi: Does it cover Xfce?
[11:47] <erUSUL> Lord_Maynoth: no, it will not be ready
[11:47] <gkellycs> anyone know how to setup kiba dock on x86-64 ubunut 6.10?
[11:47] <yacoob> Hi folks.
[11:47] <raven3x7> kelsin its in the mainline kernel?
[11:47] <yacoob> Are there any problems with fglrx? My system freezes when I try to shutdown.
[11:47] <razormadeZ> superkirbyartist, Maybe one of our providers is blocking our call
[11:47] <raven3x7> ardchoille, lol
[11:47] <apokryphos> zackglennie_: reinstalling is your only actual option, tbh.
[11:48] <abelstr> Lord_Maynoth: It's not even accepted into the vanilla kernel. When it will, it'll appear someday in ubuntu.
[11:48] <bigjohnto> does g4l take dd's of a partition or does it actually backup just the files?
[11:48] <kelsin> raven3x7: what do you mean kernel, I though you were asking about wine
[11:48] <bestadvocate> I'm buying a new laptop anyone know where I can check to see if the laptop is supported?
[11:48] <Lord_Maynoth> oh I thought it was in the newest kernel
[11:48] <irunwithscissors> ok, back
[11:48] <Lord_Maynoth> my bad
[11:48] <ardchoille> bestadvocate: hold on..
[11:48] <bigjohnto> does g4l take dd's of a partition or does it actually backup just the files?
[11:49] <raven3x7> kelsin about ext4 has the code been merged into the vanilla kernel ?
[11:49] <bigjohnto> sorry the double post was an accident
[11:49] <ardchoille> bestadvocate: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[11:49] <dyrne> bestadvocate: check wiki.ubuntu.com and id google site:ubuntuforums.org laptop model  for common problems before buying.  i like asus quite a bit
[11:49] <bestadvocate> ardchoille: ty
[11:49] <mindframe> so if i download the amd64 dist... will all of my packages be optimized for amd64?
[11:49] <ardchoille> bestadvocate: You're welcome :)
[11:49] <megafauna> Is it true that all encrypted DVDs (Like my Futurama discs) can't be played in ubuntu? If not, how?
[11:49] <Jowi> superkirbyartist, yeah. xfce is in the benchmark
[11:49] <Lord_Maynoth> wow I never new compiling took this long
[11:49] <Lord_Maynoth> hehe
[11:49] <raven3x7> kelsin, nevermind i confused nicks
[11:49] <erUSUL> ubotu tell megafauna about dvd | megafauna see priv msg from ubotu
[11:49] <kelsin> raven3x7: you asked about wine being in the official repos, and I answered you saying it was but you should get it from the repo listed on winehq.com for nwere wine
[11:49] <ardchoille> megafauna: I play encrypted DVD's in Ubuntu Dapper
[11:50] <kelsin> raven3x7: ok cool :)
[11:50] <bestadvocate> u2 dyrne
[11:50] <gkellycs> hey
[11:50] <zackglennie_> apokryphos: is there any way to get the basic things back, like chroot?
[11:50] <gkellycs> scisorrs
[11:50] <megafauna> hmm. thanks, I'll check out the link, i've tried many things
[11:50] <gkellycs> you there?
[11:50] <irunwithscissors> hi
[11:50] <kelsin> megafauna: it's "true" that ubuntu by default doesn't include the package needed to, but you can if you install the packages
[11:50] <irunwithscissors> yeah
[11:50] <gkellycs> ok
[11:50] <gkellycs> it didnt start up i presume?
[11:50] <codpair> when i try to boot up, i get an error 17, what's wrong?
[11:50] <gkellycs> go to terminal
[11:50] <apokryphos> zackglennie_: not really; things are a sure mess.
[11:50] <kelsin> !dvd | megafauna
[11:50] <ubotu> megafauna: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[11:50] <delire> i'm trying to get the fglrx up and running on a bunch of Dell Optiplex workstations here at uni. grepping the Xorg.0.log i see "Composite extension is enabled, Direct Rendering will be disabled". where do i disable this Composite extension?
[11:50] <irunwithscissors> well i started it in terminal and when i clicked on settings manager, it said directory dosn't exist
[11:50] <gkellycs> and type in beryl-manager
[11:50] <apokryphos> zackglennie_: if you want chroot though just use a live cd
[11:51] <raven3x7> kelsin, on a side note synaptic doesnt find wine and i have both universe and multiverse enabled
[11:51] <gkellycs> hmm
[11:51] <riqz> u acn use automatix to download the dvd codecs
[11:51] <irunwithscissors> so
[11:51] <gkellycs> i would reinstall beryl
[11:51] <irunwithscissors> yeah
[11:51] <apokryphos> !automatix | riqz
[11:51] <gkellycs> want me to help you?
[11:51] <ubotu> riqz: 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
[11:51] <gkellycs> ok
[11:51] <irunwithscissors> ill prolly do that
[11:51] <gkellycs> just a min
[11:51] <irunwithscissors> nah i'll be okay
[11:51] <erUSUL> codpair: grub couldn't recognize the partition its files are.... the reason i can not know
[11:51] <irunwithscissors> thanks, though
[11:51] <gkellycs> i am getting link
[11:51] <ardchoille> !automatix | ! riqz
[11:51] <kelsin> raven3x7: you should install it from the repos listed on winehq.com anyway, so I wouldn't worry about it
[11:51] <ubotu> ! please see above
[11:51] <gkellycs> alright, cuase the one i use is really simple
[11:51] <riqz> apokryphos i dont thing thts tue
[11:51] <gkellycs> like 3 commands
[11:51] <zackglennie_> apokryphos: no working cd drive, remember?
[11:51] <irunwithscissors> yeah i used that one too
[11:51] <riqz> apokryphos: i never have had problems with automatix
[11:51] <apokryphos> riqz: well, it is, so please don't recommend it in here.
[11:51] <apokryphos> riqz: /msg ubotu worksforme
