[12:01] <bruenig> hendaus, ok then do /dev/hdc in that command above
[12:01] <preaction> Cryoniq: might want to look up your program on winehq.org
[12:01] <Jetfighter> Is there a screen recorder that isn't bugged like Istanbul?
[12:01] <arrozconevan> its not that simple
[12:01] <preaction> Cryoniq: otherwise, it might be the wrong driver for your Xorg
[12:01] <hendaus> bruenig,  Executing 'builtin_dd if=/home/hendaus/vcdmov/movie.iso of=/dev/hdc obs=32k seek=0'
[12:02] <bruenig> hendaus, good watch the show
[12:02] <hyperborea> quick question is lts 6.06 different that lts 6.06 server in anyways? like server might not have a preempt kernel?
[12:02] <zac1> >
[12:02] <Cryoniq> preaction,  hmm yes.. in this latest case it is utorrent and that should work. Thing is, it stopped working in middle of ubuntu updates and I havent touched anything.
[12:02] <hendaus> bruenig,  thanx :)
[12:02] <Aci1> heya!
[12:02] <xenex92392> how do i make oidentd work?
[12:02] <preaction> Cryoniq: use a linux alternative, i suggest azureus or rtorrent
[12:02] <Xs142> Can I change the OS language back to English in some way..?
[12:02] <zac1> anybody will to help me out a little on mounting a virtual drive?
[12:02] <bruenig> hyperborea, it is just different packages
[12:03] <kbrooks> whats rtorrent?
[12:03] <Xenguy> Jetfighter: this is an 'out there' suggestion, but I thought someone once claimed that 'wink' would run in WINE.  I have no idea if that is true.  YMMV considerably - consider it a random tip ;-)
[12:03] <kbrooks> zac1, uh, ask
[12:03] <bruenig> kbrooks, cli torrent client
[12:03] <kbrooks> !rtorrent
[12:03] <ubotu> rtorrent: ncurses BitTorrent client based on LibTorrent. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.5.3-1 (edgy), package size 232 kB, installed size 636 kB
[12:03] <hyperborea> bruenig: yeah i thought that but if i aptitude search kernel | more i dont see a different kernel option for smp or anything
[12:03] <Jetfighter> :P Not to mention the site that I needed to get Winetools isn't working
[12:03] <Cryoniq> preaction, I would if it wasn't that azureus totaly lags the system apart when running it.. rtorrent seem not to be accepted by lots of torrent trackers *cry*
[12:04] <Jassossovinik> Cryoniq, hmm, I've not had any problems using rtorrent.
[12:04] <Xenguy> Jetfighter: wine comes packaged - now I'm out :-)
[12:04] <bruenig> hyperborea, what version of the kernel are you looking for
[12:04] <i3d> anyone has experience on configuring 30" monitor?
[12:05] <Jetfighter> Wait
[12:05] <hyperborea> bruenig: smp enabled and non preempt if possible
[12:05] <bruenig> hyperborea, but what number 2.6.20?
[12:05] <Xs142> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Access Denied)
[12:05] <Xs142> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
[12:05] <Xs142> **How do I fix this?
[12:05] <Zeus> i've got a very strange problem. my userlist in XChat is nowhere to be found
[12:05] <Zeus> and i can't enable it
[12:06] <preaction> Xs142: sudo <your command>
[12:06] <hendaus> bruenig,  and if video cd(vcd) is the samething?
[12:06] <dimeotane> how can I fix this command to rename each duplicate "file.db" differently:  $ find /home/dell/large-data-files/ -name file.db -exec mv -b  {} ~/Desktop/test  \;
[12:06] <hyperborea> bruenig: doesnt matter to me im not up on the change logs,, just gonna run apache mongrel mysql and rails
[12:06] <Jetfighter> Where can I get 'wink'?
[12:06] <jimd> Xs142: Use sudo?
[12:06] <GaiaX11> hyperborea: dpkg always tries to guess you monitor. Follow it to see first
[12:06] <bruenig> hendaus, video cd is cdrecord dev=/dev/whatever nameofiso.iso
[12:06] <bruenig> hyperborea, 386?
[12:06] <Cryoniq> But I can boost one thing.. wine is a bit of the devils nephew. I rather not use wine at all :)
[12:06] <hendaus> bruenig,  so everything you have to make it by terminal,there is no manual from devede dialog program?
[12:06] <Xs142> preaction; thanks :) The last hour hasn't thaught me much so I'm still learning here ;)
[12:06] <bruenig> hendaus, you can burn them in k3b or some other burning software
[12:06] <hyperborea> bruenig: 2.6.15-28-386 probebly works ok, but im on a dual core opteron
[12:07] <Cryoniq> k3b works excelent I have to add support on :)
[12:07] <hendaus> bruenig,  i have movies.DAT , k3b cannot read .DAT, did devede read it??
[12:07] <hyperborea> bruenig: and i saw on your wiki you guys were sying away from kernels that were compiled for a specific arch
[12:07] <Sigurdtheone> !Installing programs
[12:08] <StoneNote> Zeus, you can ressize the userlist.  place the curosr on it and you'll probbaly get the resize cursor (a line with an arrow on both ends).  hold the left click, drag, and then let go of the left mouse button when it's sized ok
[12:08] <bruenig> hyperborea, yeah all I see is powerpc64-smp kernels
[12:08] <edgyz> what do i neet to convert mp3 to audio and burn it
[12:08] <GaiaX11> Sigurdtheone: What do you want?
[12:08] <bruenig> hyperborea, here is all the kernels, scroll down to kernel images http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-source-2.6.15/
[12:08] <chalmer> how do i config my internet threw a linksys 54 G router?
[12:08] <apokryphos> edgyz: k3b and k3b-mp3
[12:08] <Zeus> strange, i had to resize it from the outer edge of the window. first time i've seen that. thanks stone
[12:09] <StoneNote> Zeus, yw. I've done that before
[12:09] <zac1> chamler
[12:09] <zac1> do you have DHCP enabled
[12:09] <Cryoniq> oh sorry.. it wasnt rtorrent I tried.. it was ktorrent. Hmm.. this rtorrent is back to basic for sure.. (asciipower? =P )
[12:09] <spasticteapot> Dumb question, but will Fiesty Alpha turn into Feisty Stable if I run the appropriate update?
[12:09] <spasticteapot> Or is it technically a different distro?
[12:09] <stephfont> could I disable BOOTP if I don't need it??
[12:09] <edgyz> apokryphos: and no additional codecks? :)
[12:09] <will> Is there a way to have transparent windows in Gnome?
[12:09] <apokryphos> edgyz: it'll pull everything in that you need
[12:09] <chalmer> on tha router?
[12:09] <zac1> ya
[12:10] <d0lph1n> hey all
[12:10] <chalmer> i think so
[12:10] <Xs142> Hmm, is there any recommended program to utilize with a Midi studio controller in Linux?
[12:10] <spasticteapot> Edgy is missing too many packages.
[12:10] <bruenig> hyperborea, actually linux-image is where they are I think. But the same is true only powerpc and sparc
[12:10] <bruenig> spasticteapot, like?>
[12:10] <zac1> ubuntu should pick up a IP on start up
[12:10] <d0lph1n> can anyone get their ATI AIW card working with the TV?
[12:10] <Jetfighter> Guys, I downloaded something, but when I use WINE to try and install it, i get a .eula.txt is not existant...
[12:10] <kitche> spasticteapot: feisty stable will be alpha but with everything working nicely and such and they might do some package moving before it's freezes
[12:10] <chalmer> hmm
[12:10] <d0lph1n> !TV
[12:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tv - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:10] <zac1> unless you tring todo somthing specel as far as configuring it
[12:11] <edgyz> spasticteapot: i just on the way installing ubuntu un hda
[12:11] <d0lph1n> !mythtv
[12:11] <hendaus> bruenig,  like example i have tarzan.DAT, is it works on devede,coz k3b cannot accept .DAT just mpeg
[12:11] <ubotu> MythTV is a TV framework for Linux - Instructions for using with Ubuntu at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV
[12:11] <spasticteapot> kitche: I need Fiesty, period, or at least the new packages.
[12:11] <OuZo> is there a gui for lm-sensors? thanks
[12:11] <xenex92392> how do i make oidentd work?
[12:11] <chalmer> nah.. just install'd ubuntu last night
[12:11] <r4nge> the sudo command needs to have +s for owner correct?
[12:11] <bruenig> hendaus, then you convert it in devede, and then burn the iso in k3b
[12:11] <spasticteapot> kitche: IF I want Feisty, should I install the alpha? Or will I need to re-install if I want Feisty Stable?
[12:11] <zac1> well do a ifconfig in the terminal
[12:11] <bruenig> hendaus, or use cdrecord dev=/dev/whatever nameofiso.iso from cli
[12:12] <kitche> spasticteapot: you just keep updating feisty
[12:12] <Cryoniq> I think I want a little bit of graphical gui with a torrent client ^^ than rtorrent ehehe (I am spoiled I know!)
[12:12] <Xs142> Noone know of any good program to use with a Midi studio  controller:..?
[12:12] <chalmer> but tha internet on the comp w/ ubuntu is slow as crap compared to my 4 other comp's w/ windows
[12:12] <bruenig> r4nge, not sure I understand what you mean, but I think it is safe to say no, I have never used +s
[12:12] <r4nge> -rwsr-xr-x for sudo or could it be -rwxr-xr-x
[12:12] <zac1> ive noticed a diff also
[12:12] <bruenig> utorrent through wine is good
[12:12] <edgyz> may i install automatix and download something without paying in case i'm off the usa :?
[12:12] <r4nge> its +s by default
[12:12] <lesshaste> can someone remind me where I can set the hibernate/sleep options?
[12:12] <spasticteapot> kitche: So, no reinstallation?
[12:12] <zac1> i dont think its anything we can do
[12:12] <EdBoy> Ubuntu supports Wine, correct?
[12:12] <spasticteapot> Woot!
[12:13] <EdBoy> Oh, guess it does, hehe.
[12:13] <bruenig> !automatix | edgyz
[12:13] <ardchoille> !automatix | edgyz
[12:13] <cafuego_> edgyz: yes
[12:13] <lesshaste> I want to stop ir sleeping when I close the lid of my laptop
[12:13] <Jetfighter> http://www.kxuk.net/bucket/show_comp.php?id=e421b1712&name=ubterror.png How can I fix that?
[12:13] <bruenig> hmm, what's wrong with ubotu
[12:13] <zac1> !mount
[12:13] <edgyz> cafuego_ thanks
[12:13] <chalmer> i thought that there was something in ubuntu to run to config tha net or something
[12:13] <Jetfighter> !bot
[12:13] <r4nge> i want to open up a shell box for others to use but want it as secure as possible so thats why i'm investigating +s
[12:13] <bruenig> edgyz, I wouldn't though, automatix is very dangerous
[12:14] <StoneNote> OuZo, gdesklets for gnome or ksensors for kde
[12:14] <hyperborea> !kernel
[12:14] <zac1> chalmer google it
[12:14] <zac1> or look on the webpage
[12:14] <bruenig> r4nge, I am intrigued about this +s thing, what is it supposed to do?
[12:14] <OuZo> StoneNote: thanks im getting gdesklets
[12:14] <chalmer> ok
[12:14] <chalmer> thanks
[12:14] <Jetfighter> No one? http://www.kxuk.net/bucket/show_comp.php?id=e421b1712&name=ubterror.png How to fix?
[12:14] <StoneNote> yw
[12:14] <lesshaste> can someone remind me where I can set the hibernate/sleep options in ubuntu?
[12:14] <kitche> bruenig: there you go that's what's wrong probably got spammed or something and it hanged
[12:14] <chalmer> another thing
[12:14] <edgyz> bruenig: but very handy isn't it
[12:14] <lesshaste> I want to stop it sleeping when I close the lid of my laptop
[12:14] <StoneNote> bueller? anyone? anyone? bueller?
[12:15] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, what are you installing?
[12:15] <zac1> anybody know how to mount a virtal drive?
[12:15] <bruenig> edgyz, if you like hosed installs, there are only a few better ways I can think of
[12:15] <r4nge> bruenig: basically gives the person executing the same privelges as the owner in that process
[12:15] <r4nge> so thats why i'm thinking sudo needs to be +s
[12:15] <edgyz> lesshaste: ints not stops by default when you close da lid
[12:15] <Jetfighter> Oh, well, I bypassed that (XD) but now it says I need at least IE 4
[12:16] <bruenig> r4nge, when you use sudo, you are executing as root
[12:16] <r4nge> because if i'm gonan use sudo it would make sense that i need root priveleges when using it
[12:16] <chalmer> when i put a cd in tha drive it does'nt automatic load either. is something wrong with my version of ubuntu?
[12:16] <stephfont> if i compile another kernel (recent one), will it fit into Ubuntu's settings and processes??
[12:16] <colbert> I want to use Schedule to run a .xls (Office Spreadsheet) file every night, what do I put in the command field???
[12:16] <r4nge> bruenig: you sure none of your executables has +s in it?
[12:16] <PriceChild> stephfont, Why do you want to recompile the kernel?
[12:16] <lesshaste> edmondt, sorry?
[12:16] <shatrat> stephfont, why would you? Its likely i fyou dont include the right things sound or video or other random things will stop working.
[12:16] <stephfont> to learn more from it
[12:16] <bruenig> r4nge, you (as in your user) is using sudo, but sudo is not using your user, it is using root
[12:17] <hyperborea> can someone point me in the direction of documentation that talks about the diff between the big iron server image and the server image, and why i might want to use the amd64 version
[12:17] <Jetfighter> How can I get IE?
[12:17] <r4nge> bruenig: find / -type f -perm +6000 -ls would list your +s progs
[12:17] <stephfont> i don't want unwanted stuff, that's all
[12:17] <adminx> Should I remove vmplayer in I want to install vmware 5.5
[12:17] <bruenig> !sudo | r4nge
[12:17] <v3xtra> Is there any way to make a keystroke a shortcut of a terminal command?  Something that is not in the keyboard shortcut program?
[12:17] <stephfont> excessive maintaining?!
[12:17] <bruenig> oh yeah, not bot
[12:17] <PriceChild> bruenig, ubotu is out. Will be back soon :)
[12:17] <infidel> how can i get console to use a higher resolution?
[12:18] <EdBoy> How do I get my Ubuntu to correctly guess my screen resolution_
[12:18] <Jetfighter> PriceChild, how can I get IE v4?
[12:18] <r4nge> i'm afraid to remove +s from sudo thinking that i will no longer be able to access it
[12:18] <Jetfighter> !hi
[12:18] <bruenig> Jetfighter, ies4linux google it
[12:18] <Noogat> Is there a recovery program for NTFS drives for Ubuntu
[12:18] <Jetfighter> Ok
[12:18] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, IE4 is a windows program. You can't instal it on ubuntu without using wine
[12:18] <Jetfighter> I got wine
[12:18] <edgyz> EdBoy: install 915 resolution
[12:18] <bruenig> Noogat, doubt it seeing as ntfs isn't even natively supported
[12:18] <EdBoy> Currently, it thinks that I'm at 1024x768, when I'm really at 1280x1024
[12:18] <Noogat> waaaaaah
[12:19] <Jetfighter> !hi | ubotu
[12:19] <EdBoy> edgyz: what?
[12:19] <EdBoy> whuzzat
[12:19] <bruenig> Noogat, unless you are talking about a perfectly good ntfs that you just want files from, if you are saying it got corrupted, then probably not
[12:19] <Jetfighter> PriceChild, where can I download?
[12:19] <edgyz> EdBoy: is you card from intell
[12:19] <Noogat> bruenig: let's see
[12:19] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, I'm unfamiliar with it sorry
[12:19] <Noogat> It was corrupt due to Partition Magic
[12:19] <v3xtra> Is there any way to make keyboard shortcuts that are not predefined in the Keyboard Shortcut program?
[12:19] <Jetfighter> :(
[12:19] <bruenig> Noogat, I mean if it isn't corrupted and windows just screwed up, then you can mount it and copy files off of it
[12:19] <Noogat> i fixed it trough the Windows Recovery Console
[12:20] <ubotu> ubotu: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[12:20] <EdBoy> edgyz: I don't believe so.
[12:20] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, I recommend you find a linux alternative to whatever you're trying to install
[12:20] <adminx> Should I remove vmplayer in I want to install vmware 5.5
[12:20] <Noogat> 1okay
[12:20] <Noogat> okay
[12:20] <Noogat> how can i activate ntfs support on LiveCD
[12:20] <Jetfighter> There is none :( IEs4linux might work
[12:20] <edgyz> EdBoy: my is intel i need 915 resolution driver :)
[12:20] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, what are you trying to install?
[12:20] <bruenig> Noogat, you can mount and read with no problem, you just can't write to it
[12:21] <EdBoy> well, XP picked it up
[12:21] <EdBoy> Il try again
[12:21] <Flannel> Jetfighter: IEs4Linux is probably what you want, but I don't believe that it contains IE4.  Just 5, 5.5 and 6.  I may be wrong.  Why on earth do you need 4?
[12:21] <Jetfighter> PlayUBT, online poker thing
[12:21] <EdBoy> I don't have much of a problem.
[12:21] <Noogat> bruenig: i want to write a ISO in it, then mount it on a blank cd
[12:21] <Jetfighter> Well, it needs at least IE 4
[12:21] <Flannel> Jetfighter: ah, then IEs4Lin will work fine.
[12:21] <bruenig> Noogat, well writing will be a problem
[12:21] <bruenig> !ntfs-3g | Noogat
[12:21] <ubotu> Noogat: ntfs-3g is is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. It has been extensively tested but please remember to keep backups of critical data.

[12:21] <Jetfighter> YAY
[12:21] <infidel> how can i get console to use a higher resolution?
[12:21] <r4nge> bruenig: sudo needs +s in the owner to work
[12:22] <Super_Pollos> okk, heres teh problem, I changed my password for my account to something with numberpad related keys in it, momentarily forgotten, i had previously made those keys hotkeys, now i cant get inot my computer,it was the only account on there. Can I recover/Change my password? or do i have to re install like i originally thought?
[12:22] <Jetfighter> Where would I add  deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu edgy universe
[12:22] <Jetfighter> Oooh, nevermind. lmao
[12:22] <bruenig> r4nge, I have never heard of +s, but I will tell you that sudo is working fine and I have never touched anything like that
[12:22] <hyperborea> ok so i need the server image. Can Anyone think of a reason why i wold not want to run the amd64 version for my dual opteron box?... looks like support is being drpped for that
[12:22] <Flannel> Super_Pollos: help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword
[12:22] <Super_Pollos> thanks
[12:22] <Super_Pollos> never thought of that
[12:22] <edgyz> infidel: get higher whole screen resolution
[12:23] <r4nge> bruening: check the file permissions for sudo and i'm pretty sure you will see an "s" where the "x" would be for the owner group
[12:23] <kevin> figured out my disappearing eth0 problem, was there someone else with the same problem? I can help if it's the same
[12:23] <colbert> How would I schedule a .xls (Office Spreadsheet) file every night to open at 11pm ??
[12:23] <crdlb> infidel, you need to enable the framebuffer
[12:23] <Xs142> what was the command to check version again?
[12:23] <Flannel> hyperborea: support is being dropped?  PPC is being dropped, not 64bit (er, at least, as far as I've heard).  Since you won't be dealing with proprietary crap, I wouldn't think there'd be any significant reasons to use 32bit

[12:30] <ciscosurfer> I'm I correct in assuming Feisty is gradually porting the entire Debian repo(s) to Ubuntu?
[12:30] <bruenig> Jetfighter, gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list and remove line 15, the one that will start with repository I am sure

[12:32] <Comrade_Sergei> anyone know where i can get the 1386.Deb version of alcohol 120% or AcetoneISO?
[12:32] <jmhodges> hey, my copy of iconv knows nothing of the MacGreek, MacRoman, etc. encodings. anyone know how to get those into iconv?
[12:32] <Jetfighter> That was all that was on line 15
[12:32] <Jetfighter> repository.
[12:32] <jmhodges> this is on Edgy
[12:32] <bruenig> Jetfighter, so then that is what it started with
[12:32] <PriceChild> Comrade_Sergei, do they even have linux versions?
[12:32] <Jetfighter> Well, you really needn't have asked..
 Actually, the line consisted of "repository."
[12:32] <bruenig> Jetfighter, but it started with "repository"
[12:33] <Jetfighter> Yeah
[12:33] <Comrade_Sergei> PriceChild i know Acetone has a rpm, and i used alien with it and it doesnt work
[12:33] <Jetfighter> You should be able to deduct that from what I said, which means I win :P
[12:33] <Comrade_Sergei> PriceChild do you know something that will do the same thing , cause im too cheap to get cd-rs
[12:34] <Flannel> Comrade_Sergei: what do you mean the same thing?  Mounting an ISO?
[12:34] <bruenig> Jetfighter, you acted as if I was wrong by telling me the line consisted of repository. and I wasn't. You thought you had some technicality because of the period, but technically I was still correct.
[12:34] <PriceChild> Comrade_Sergei, You want mounting an iso?
[12:34] <Comrade_Sergei> Flannel yes
[12:34] <PriceChild> Comrade_Sergei, Linux does that without anything special
[12:34] <Flannel> !mount | Comrade_Sergei
[12:34] <ubotu> Comrade_Sergei: Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[12:34] <Comrade_Sergei> and PriceChild yes
[12:34] <Flannel> er
[12:34] <Flannel> !iso | Comrade_Sergei
[12:34] <ubotu> Comrade_Sergei: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <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.
[12:34] <Jetfighter> Well, so was I, let's jsut dtop it.
[12:34] <Flannel> Comrade_Sergei: we don't need extra programs, it's built in.
[12:34] <bruenig> Jetfighter, but the implication of your response was not right
[12:35] <Jetfighter> DROP IT.
[12:35] <Comrade_Sergei> Flannel ive got to convert it to ISO first its like MDF or something now

[12:41] <OuZo> StoneNote: which desklet do you use fot cpu temp & fan speed?
[12:42] <Flannel> aridese: were these gnome shortcut things?  The easiest way would bne to remove the config files that set it.  It'll be in your home dir (since it's a per user thing), as for which file, I have no idea (and no way of checking on my box), but it'll be in your homedir, that's for certain (and hidden).
[12:42] <hole> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10106/ thats it

[12:42] <bruenig> hole, is there any reason you aren't using the repository wine
[12:42] <Flannel> aridese: logging into "safe mode" (under "sessions" in GDM), should make it work again for you to fix it; I believe.
[12:43] <Jetfighter> I installed, it said done, then I re-run setup, I get same error
[12:43] <hole> it returned a different error message when i tried to run it
[12:43] <bruenig> Jetfighter, you do have wine installed right?

[12:45] <hole> bill & suse?
[12:45] <Flannel> VoltageX-CGI: is not having a hdb1 a problem?
[12:45] <PriceChild> bruenig, no need to reinstall...
[12:45] <hole> what is the connection
[12:45] <eamo> bruenig: will that delete current set-up?
[12:45] <Flannel> OuZo: #ubuntu-effects for Compiz/etc support, thanks.
[12:45] <Comrade_Sergei> Flannel go to a terminal and type mdf2iso and see the stuff i get
[12:45] <PriceChild> eamo, have you not got internet access?
[12:45] <StoneNote> flamesrock, thx
[12:45] <StoneNote> Flannel, thx
[12:45] <Flannel> Comrade_Sergei: I don't have that program
[12:45] <Jetfighter> bruenig, any other thoughts?
[12:45] <VoltageX-CGI> Flannel: well, Ubuntu doesn't seem to boot properly.
[12:45] <roger> #tllts
[12:45] <Comrade_Sergei> Flannel its in ubuntu you should have it, just try it
[12:45] <Flannel> VoltageX-CGI: alright, so, how are your drives/partitions/operating systems setup?
[12:45] <Paddy_EIRE> hey Guys does anyone know how to get my windows/super key to work???
[12:46] <bruenig> Jetfighter, probably user error, I haven't installed ies4linux since breezy or maybe dapper because I don't need it, but you just run a script and it goes
[12:46] <Flannel> Comrade_Sergei: no, I don't have it.  I don't have a GUI ubuntu.
[12:46] <bruenig> Paddy_EIRE, what do you want it to do
[12:46] <Jetfighter> How do I run it once it is installed?
[12:46] <Paddy_EIRE> bruenig, be the super key?
[12:46] <Paddy_EIRE> bruenig, at the mo it does nothing
[12:46] <VoltageX-CGI> Flannel: /dev/hda1 as ext3, /dev/hda5 is swap.
[12:46] <Comrade_Sergei> Flannel they make a ver of ubuntu thats a pure CLI?
[12:46] <Comrade_Sergei> wow
[12:47] <bruenig> Paddy_EIRE, it isn't defined as anything in ubuntu, my superkey acts as a modifier for keyboard commands, super + x is firefox super + a is rhythmbox and so forth and so on
[12:47] <jseiser> can someone please tell me how one would install gdesklets from source on fiesty?
[12:47] <Flannel> Comrade_Sergei: they do.
[12:47] <Jetfighter> bruenig, is there a command to run it?
[12:47] <Flannel> VoltageX-CGI: You only have one HD, right?
[12:48] <VoltageX-CGI> Flannel: yes.
[12:48] <Paddy_EIRE> bruenig, ok well It says in beryl-settings that I can do the rotating windows switcher by holding the "Super" key and pressing tab
[12:48] <bruenig> Jetfighter, I don't remember, it is meant to be very easy so I am sure it is very easy, I think it is in ~/bin
[12:48] <bruenig> Paddy_EIRE, #ubuntu-effects maybe
[12:48] <Flannel> VoltageX-CGI: alright, then you of course don't have hdb, let alone hdb1.  So, at what point of the boot does ubuntu give you that error?
[12:48] <eamo> bruenig: will fresh install from alt delete /home files?
[12:49] <Paddy_EIRE> bruenig, ok, I'll try that..thx
[12:49] <Flannel> eamo: Is /home on it's own partition?
[12:49] <Jetfighter> No
[12:49] <Jetfighter> I don't think
[12:49] <bruenig> eamo, if it is on its own partition, then no
[12:49] <cusco> could be if you ahve set it to
[12:49] <VoltageX-CGI> Flannel: just after grub. It then halts, then after 30sec drops to busybox/initramfs
[12:49] <bruenig> eamo, assuming you tell it not to that is
[12:49] <cusco> use df
[12:49] <PriceChild> eamo, wait you don't need to really re-install completely!
[12:49] <cusco> to list them
[12:49] <eamo> Flannel: no not own partition
[12:49] <PriceChild> eamo, has the box got internet access?
[12:50] <jseiser> is their a feisty channel?
[12:50] <Flannel> VoltageX-CGI: hmm.  Pastebin your menu.lst (/boot/grub/menu.lst)
[12:50] <Flannel> jseiser: #ubuntu+1
[12:50] <PriceChild> !feisty > jseiser (#ubuntu+1)
[12:50] <hendaus> back
[12:50] <jseiser> ty
[12:50] <cusco> jseiser: ubuntu+1
[12:50] <Jetfighter> bruenig, it is installed, but I get the error :(
[12:50] <eamo> PriceChild: yes it has internet access
[12:50] <VoltageX-CGI> Flannel: not possible really, can't copy/paste from Parallels
[12:50] <dolmen> seen fabbione
[12:50] <bruenig> Jetfighter, do you need ie, and for what?
[12:50] <PriceChild> eamo, Ok then lets fix it :) So just to make me totally clear... we're fixing a broken upgrade from dapper to edgy?
[12:50] <Jetfighter> I need IE to install PlayUBT
[12:51] <bruenig> ubt?
[12:51] <Flannel> VoltageX-CGI: oh, this is in... hmm.  I've never had experience with parallels.
[12:51] <hendaus> bruenig,  i open vcd from devede and convert movie.DAT to movie.cue and movie.bin <-- why not .sio
[12:51] <Jetfighter> www.playubt.com It's a online blackjack program
[12:51] <hendaus> bruenig,  sorry .iso
[12:51] <eamo> PriceChild: yes fix for a half instal - 350 file of 1200
[12:51] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, have you ever considered using web based online poker? that doesn't need a separate client?
[12:51] <Flannel> Jetfighter: you might try asking in #winehq, they know mre about wine
[12:51] <bruenig> hendaus, oh I didn't know that would do bin and cue, just open up k3b and have it deal with them, it should be able to do it
[12:51] <PriceChild> eamo, could you pastebin the output of "cat /etc/apt/sources.list" please?
[12:52] <Jetfighter> PriceChild, it's my favorite, and all my friends + family use that one
[12:52] <VoltageX-CGI> Flannel: which lines in particular do you need? and is there an editor in busybox?
[12:52] <Pie-rate> rhythmbox crashing a lot for anyone else?
[12:52] <hendaus> bruenig,  open k3b and deal the .cue and .bin?
[12:52] <Jetfighter> Wait....Might I need the IE in the same folder?
[12:52] <bruenig> hendaus, opn up k3b and then navigate to the .cue .bin files and let it deal with them, it will burn them I have confidence at least that it will
[12:53] <cassius> f
[12:53] <Whtiger> l
[12:53] <funkygreendogs> someone help
[12:53] <Flannel> VoltageX-CGI: you can do it visually easy enough.  In the option you're selecting, what is the root?  and then, the the root argument after the kernel (root=)
[12:53] <Whtiger> with?
[12:53] <PriceChild> funkygreendogs, ask your question.
[12:53] <funkygreendogs> i accidently changed the permissions of my home folder
[12:53] <Jetfighter> Still says it :(
[12:53] <PriceChild> funkygreendogs, to what?
[12:53] <Flannel> funkygreendogs: /home/? or /home/username?
[12:53] -JKnife:#ubuntu- HI everybody
[12:53] <funkygreendogs> /home/username
[12:54] <crazytales> JKnife: wtf.
[12:54] <funkygreendogs> chmod 777 !
[12:54] <Flannel> funkygreendogs: recursive? please say no
[12:54] <Whtiger> chmod 007 ! (no, don't >.>)
[12:54] <funkygreendogs> i tried to change it back to 644 but it wont load
[12:54] <hendaus> bruenig,  cdrecord dev=/dev/whatever nameofiso.iso u gave me this , so it should be: cdrecord dev=/dev/hdc movie.iso
[12:54] <jrib> funkygreendogs: what is the output
[12:54] <VoltageX-CGI> Flannel: there is no /boot/ directory :S
[12:54] <colbert> What would be the command to make a archive (tar) of my home folder for backup ???
[12:54] <Comrade_Sergei> Flannel what was that command to mount an ISO again?
[12:54] <VoltageX-CGI> Flannel: oh! root was set to /dev/hdb1... now I just need to fix the APCI and PCI errors that are slowing the boot by 30sec-1min
[12:54] <jrib> funkygreendogs: you probably want 755 btw
[12:54] <Flannel> funkygreendogs: wont load?  Oh, you cna't login?  In te grub menu, switch to "rescue mode", then you'll get a root prompt, you can switch it back
[12:55] <Riga> hey
[12:55] <Flannel> !iso | Comrade_Sergei
[12:55] <PriceChild> colbert, "tar -cvvf foo.tar foo/" is the basic layout

[12:55] <Flannel> VoltageX-CGI: awesome.  Since, I didn't really know where to go with the data once I got it ;)
[12:55] <sgentry6> colbert: use tar cjf backup.tar.bz2 /home/ to get better compression
[12:55] <funkygreendogs> jrib: i tried 644 and it wont read a certain file, then with 777 it works again i just want to change it back now because i cant execute some files

[12:56] <iamedu> hi, i need some help to set up my wireless card on my laptop
[12:56] <Flannel> funkygreendogs: 755 is correct, and the "recovery mode" from grub is the way you can get a shell to chmod it
[12:56] <Phantasee> howdy
[12:56] <colbert> sgentry6: Ok, and if I do like "tar -cjf ~/Desktop/backup.tar.bz2 /home/" that will place it on my desktop rite ??
[12:56] <StoneNote> colbert, you can use a package like sbackup to automate your backups http://www.ubuntugeek.com/backup-and-restore-your-ubuntu-system-using-sbackup.html
[12:56] <Flannel> !backup | colbert

[01:01] <qatsi> iamedu: ok, youll have to follow a guide step by step, but you have to install ndiswrapper, apply your windows driver to the ndiswrapper, reboot and it works. let me find a nice guide for you
[01:01] <qatsi> Flannel: NFS
[01:01] <Phantasee> Oh!
[01:01] <iamedu> thanks!
[01:01] <Flannel> !nfs | qatsi
[01:01] <ubotu> qatsi: nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[01:01] <[|santo|] > or dpkg equiv - i haven't been able to see anything in the docs
[01:01] <iamedu> by the way i didn't find any .inf driver on my windows
[01:01] <qatsi> Flannel: thank you :)
[01:01] <NickGarvey> is there a way to enable mp3 support and other media type things without an internet connection?
[01:01] <mag_> could you tell how can I change the subtitles on totem reproductor please ?
[01:01] <NickGarvey> I plan to install ubuntu at a place I volunteer, but there is no internet connection
[01:02] <eamo> PriceChild: did you get bin ref  thanks - http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10107/
[01:02] <Victor```> NickGarvey: download the .deb packages and install them
[01:02] <PriceChild> Sorry eamo i was attending to somewhere else, just checking :)
[01:02] <qatsi> iamedu: wait a second :P
[01:02] <Flannel> NickGarvey: sure, there's a few methods of implementing a glorified sneakernet
[01:03] <iamedu> yes, thank you so much!
[01:03] <Flannel> NickGarvey: they all entail basically making a repository on a CD
[01:03] <PriceChild> eamo, Could you sudo apt-get update and pastebin the output again?
[01:03] <NickGarvey> Flannel, is there an article you know of that I might be able to refer too?
[01:03] <Flannel> NickGarvey: There are a bunch of scripts to automate the process, uh, debmirror, aptonCD, I know there are others
[01:03] <sgentry6> in general, when I select the right driver using ndiswrapper the light on the device should spring to life correct?
[01:03] <eamo> PriceChild: ok take 3 mins
[01:04] <Flannel> NickGarvey: I've gotta run at the moment.  You might try asking in #ubuntu-offtopic, we have had this converstaion about three times in the past week ;)
[01:04] <Victor```> there is a way to recursively fetch the .debs
[01:04] <qatsi> iamedu: Ok, here it is. This worked for me. Try reading the entire guide. Guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=197102
[01:04] <NickGarvey> Flannel, thanks a lot
[01:04] <Victor```> NickGarvey: man apt-get
[01:04] <Victor```> look for something about recursive fetch
[01:04] <Moordrik> Anyone know how involved it would be to create a keymap for a Zboard Merc keyboard?
[01:04] <iamedu> ops! that's the one im using and still doesn't work... but... I'll keep trying
[01:05] <NickGarvey> vmware here I go!
[01:05] <qatsi> iamedu: do you want me to help you a bit?
[01:05] <sgentry6> ls
[01:05] <sgentry6> sorry, I need a kvm something badly :)
[01:06] <iamedu> qatsi: i would like that.. he
[01:06] <qatsi> iamedu: ok, first, we need to make sure you have ndiswrapper working. So please do sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper
[01:07] <eamo> PriceChild: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10108/
[01:07] <qatsi> iamedu: (actually that will only check if its installed)

[01:07] <iamedu> ok wait a little.. I'm on another machine
[01:07] <hendaus> bruenig,  are u there?

[01:09] <PriceChild> xander, grub
[01:10] <xander> cool, thanks!
[01:10] <[|santo|] > so, i can't find the answer in the docs for apt or dpkg (and i suspect that no answer in the channel means that no one knows of a way) but does anyone know assertively that there is no 'trusted version' scan and I can stop looking?
[01:11] <DM|> Anyone know of an app that will just place a picture on my desktop , and nothing else
[01:11] <jvai> hey ppl.. *grabs pen & paper*

[01:12] <jvai> smh. i wasnt asking a question
[01:12] <eamo> PriceChild: got promt back - it is not upgrading
[01:12] <PriceChild> eamo, could you pastebin it all to let me see what it did?

[01:15] <PriceChild> eamo, no that was another "update", I said "sudo apt-get upgrade" this tims :)
[01:15] <bruenig> hendaus, open k3b, and then in the navigator in k3b go to the .bin or .cue and click on it
[01:15] <eamo> PriceChild: Got that
[01:15] <PriceChild> eamo, lemme know what that does :)
[01:15] <[|santo|] > appologies for asking the same question again, but still no answer: is there a 'trusted version' comparison for apt or dpkg?
[01:16] <bruenig> [|santo|] , apt uses dpkg
[01:16] <bruenig> !apt
[01:16] <ubotu> APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[01:16] <cafuego_> [|santo|] : I don't understand the question, can you elaborate?
[01:16] <bruenig> it is not one or the other, it is both together working in tandem
[01:17] <barr1> hi

[01:18] <PriceChild> barr1, ask and see :)
[01:18] <bruenig> !anyone | barr1
[01:18] <ubotu> barr1: 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?
[01:18] <barr1> k :)
[01:18] <cafuego_> [|santo|] : rpm -V is useless; ALL redhat/fedora boxes I;'ve ever replaced with Debian due to hacking had their 'rpm' patched to indicate all files were fine.
[01:18] <cafuego_> that said
[01:19] <[|santo|] > cafuego_ true - but you can download a trusted source to compare
[01:19] <hendaus> bruenig,  ok then
[01:19] <eamo> PriceChild: need to reboot - will be back with result soon!
[01:19] <[|santo|] > if i knew of a way to do that with apt or dpkg it would be helpful
[01:19] <cafuego_> [|santo|] : No, the binary itself would be hacked, so it would ALWAYS return "ok".
[01:19] <hendaus> bruenig,  but vcd cannot work with .bin and .cue
[01:20] <barr1> when i trie to acces for example www.google.de it will take up to 30 sec. before the site is loaded... but if i try it with the ip adress it works fine. dns server are my router ip and and external ip
[01:20] <bruenig> hendaus, I have tired, I think that k3b can burn .bin and .cue. That is all I have to say.

[01:20] <luke_> Hi everyone. I installed ubuntu yesterday, now I just can't install my microphone to record my voice. I used my webcam's built-in microphone for skype, but it does not work with recording programs such as KRec. Could anyone please qry me and help me with this?
[01:20] <ThinkingMan> So I just installed ubuntu on my new laptop, which has a 15.4" widescreen, on my previous laptop with a widescreen it autodetected the display and set it as 1280 x 768, however on this one my only option is 1024 x 768, how do I go about fixing this?
[01:20] <jimd> cafuego: I've found that many of the RH/rpm-based hacked/rooted systems did NOT have patched rpm/database files and were readily detected with rpm -Va
[01:21] <barr1> ahh ok thx
[01:21] <hendaus> bruenig,  i open k3b with new project video cd or not?
[01:21] <bruenig> hendaus, you can just click on the file, k3b will figure out what to do I am pretty sure
[01:21] <Monkey_Puzzle> Hello! Anyone know how to go back to the open source radeon driver from the fglrx one?
[01:21] <jimd> cafuego --- however, I would still recommand booting off a live CD and running a copy of rpm -Vp ... therefrom
[01:21] <cafuego_> [|santo|] : You can always do a soneliens using md5sum and /var/lib/dpkg/info/<package>.md5sums
[01:21] <cafuego_> oneliner
[01:22] <cafuego_> if you need anymore more, tripwire is the way to do.
[01:22] <ReK_> can anyone recommend a good minipci wireless card that has reliable linux drivers?
[01:22] <hendaus> bruenig,  it says it works with mpeg

[01:26] <bruenig> hendaus, when that is installed do bchunk whatever.bin whatever.cue whatever.iso (change whatever of course)
[01:26] <bruenig> hendaus, then you should have an iso and you can use k3b
[01:26] <luke_> (I have a standard analog mic, too)

[01:29] <hendaus> bruenig,  ok bchunk installed

[01:30] <bruenig> hendaus, bchunk whatever.bin whatever.cue whatever.iso
[01:30] <joe4444> all the guides i've found online say ubuntu should mount my ipod automatically, but it's not working

[01:31] <bruenig> joe4444, it should automount it I think just like any other usb device
[01:31] <jasz> i have a problem with my Canon EOS XTi (400D) .. I used to be able to download my photos using GThumb (F-Spot would crash :( ) ... but as of today, I updated libgphoto2 (auto update) and now I can't download my photos from my camera.. any ideas?
[01:31] <joe4444> bruenig, well it isn't... how can i mount it manually?
[01:31] <zachary> Would anyone know a command that will list every installed system package -in text format, so I can create a list of my current system for backups..
[01:32] <PriceChild> eamo, Ok, "sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" and delete the top line with the cd on.
[01:32] <bruenig> joe4444, don't know, have never manually mounted a usb device, they have always done it on their own

[01:32] <joe4444> bruenig, originally i installed xubuntu because my cd-rw couldn't burn the ubuntu iso for some reason... i "upgraded" with apt-get install ubuntu-desktop (if that makes a difference for automount)
[01:32] <joe4444> jasz, ipod
[01:32] <knovak> Is there a way to set my internal clock through Ubuntu, because whenver I restart its rolling my time back an hour, not taking into account daylights savings

[01:33] <hendaus> bruenig,  ok it is working now
[01:33] <bruenig> joe4444, xubuntu has automount, that is what I use.

[01:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dst - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:33] <bruenig> joe4444, automount is more at a system level than a ui level
[01:33] <knovak> my timezone file seems to be fine (it has March 11th as the DST update), but when I restart im still being moved back an hour
[01:33] <bimberi> zachary: 'dpkg --get-selections'
[01:33] <IndyGunFreak> knovak: hmm, don't restart.. ;)  J/k  I don't know why it would do that, mine's been fine
[01:33] <joe4444> bruenig, what's the package name for the default automount?  i searched aptitude and found a number of results, so i don't know which one i should install
[01:33] <erstazi> knovak: did you get the updates?
[01:34] <zachary> bimberi, thanks
[01:34] <eamo> PriceChild: ok - will I try again to upgrade
[01:34] <PriceChild> eamo, no
[01:34] <bruenig> joe4444, I doubt it is a package, it is probably integrated into ubuntu just like init or anything else
[01:34] <PriceChild> eamo, "sudo apt-get update" _then_ "sudo apt-get upgrade"
[01:34] <taonari> greetings
[01:34] <PaulButler> hi
[01:34] <bimberi> zachary: yw :).  Actually, have a look at 'dpkg -l | grep ^ii' as well
[01:35] <zachary> will do
[01:35] <knovak> erstazi: yeah, whenever an update comes out I update my system
[01:35] <CoffeeBurrito> Does ubuntu server use a non-standard implementation of mysql? I'm trying to recover my root password, but mysqld_safe doesn't have an "init-file" parameter
[01:35] <joe4444> bruenig, well assuming i have automount but it's just disabled (for whatever reason), shouldn't my ipod show up when i run "fdisk -l" ?
[01:35] <knovak> But if its not in the update manager, I don't get it
[01:35] <bruenig> joe4444, I don't know, all I said is that it should mount, that is it
[01:36] <eamo> PriceChild: worked - has started getting upgrades from net - thanks
[01:36] <bruenig> I only know things that I have had to do myself, it has always automounted
[01:36] <jasz> joe4444, .. try    mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /media/ipod/
[01:36] <PriceChild> eamo, one more thing...
[01:36] <cafuego_> CoffeeBurrito: Are you using mysql 5.x docs with mysql 4.1?
[01:36] <PaulButler> i have a dual core processor, but ubuntu only sees one... how can I get the best performance out of my dual core processor?
[01:36] <bruenig> jasz, it isn't going to be /dev/sda1
[01:36] <cafuego_> PaulButler: install the -generic kernel on Edgy.
[01:36] <PriceChild> eamo, Afterwards... you will need to "sudo apt-get dist-ugprade" to do the last upgrades... DON'T reboot until you finish the dist-upgrade.
[01:36] <jasz> it may be sdb1
[01:36] <bimberi> PaulButler: what version of Ubuntu?
[01:36] <joe4444> jasz, well i really doubt that will work considering there are no "sda" devices (according to fdisk)
[01:36] <CoffeeBurrito> mysql --version says it's mysql 5.0
[01:36] <cafuego_> or the -smp one on Dapper
[01:36] <PaulButler> bimberi: 6.10
[01:37] <cafuego_> CoffeeBurrito: Hmm.
[01:37] <eamo> PriceChild: got that - many thanks
[01:37] <Flannel> cafuego_: dapper doesn't have -smp, Breezy is the last one that made the distinction
[01:37] <bimberi> PaulButler: linux-generic (as per cafuego_)
[01:37] <jasz> most usb block devices are /dev/dsXY
[01:37] <[|santo|] > cafuego_ hmmm...i see debsums refered to by reportbug - but don't see any pkg which provides debsums
[01:37] <Zues_62> does anyone know how to do cool tricks with gnome
[01:37] <Zues_62> if so whisper me
[01:37] <[|santo|] > cafuego_ debsums not already installed
[01:37] <PriceChild> eamo, you'll "probably" want to "sudo apt-get upgrade", "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" a second time afterwards just to check things are finished :)
[01:37] <cafuego_> !info debsums

[01:37] <jasz> my ipod (shuffle 1st gen) is mounted on /dev/sdb1
[01:37] <hendaus> bruenig,  i see it makes two iso files one is 602kb/s and the other 988kb/s :(
[01:37] <PaulButler> cafuego_, bimberi: ok, thanks
[01:38] <jasz> i have a problem with my Canon EOS XTi (400D) .. I used to be able to download my photos using GThumb (F-Spot would crash :( ) ... but as of today, I updated libgphoto2 (auto update) and now I can't download my photos from my camera.. any ideas?
[01:38] <joe4444> jasz, how can i see a list of USB devices currently connected?  i thought the ipod would show up in "fdisk -l" because it's just a hard disk
[01:38] <jasz> joe4444, "lsusb"
[01:38] <bimberi> !info linux-686-smp dapper
[01:38] <bruenig> hendaus, it should only make one, and you gave me a rate, not a filesize, it is probably just converting

[01:38] <cafuego_> Well, that's how long I haven't used dapper ;-)
[01:38] <joe4444> jasz, ok i see it there...
[01:39] <joe4444> Bus 004 Device 007: ID 05ac:1203 Apple Computer, Inc.
[01:39] <hendaus> bruenig,  i type -> bchunk /home/hendaus/vcdmov/melh.bin /home/hendaus/vcdmov/melh.cue /home/hendaus/vcdmov/melh.iso
[01:39] <cafuego_> bimberi: I think it perhaps points at the same pkg as linux-686 does
[01:39] <bruenig> hendaus, good
[01:39] <eamo> PriceChild: and I upgraded my server in the meantime - thanks
[01:39] <joe4444> any idea how i can mount it now?
[01:39] <hendaus> bruenig,  it shows twice .iso
[01:39] <PriceChild> eamo, good luck :)
[01:39] <bimberi> cafuego_: indeed it does.  Thanks.
[01:39] <bruenig> hendaus, I don't believe you
[01:39] <M-Saunders> MikeW: What a team we are!
[01:39] <jessie^^> hi! fresh install of ubuntu edgy, installed libdvdread and libdvdcss and I still can't watch DVD's... can anyone help?
[01:40] <khermans__> can you do: aptitude upgrade ubiquity
[01:40] <sgentry6> joe4444: try using sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/ipod
[01:40] <khermans__> how can i update only one package!?!
[01:40] <jasz> when i tried to use my camera for the first time in Ubuntu, I had to follow the instructions here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=375010&highlight=xti     ...  but now this does not work.. any ideas?
[01:40] <khermans__> new ubiquity is damn broken
[01:40] <bruenig> khermans__, I usually just do sudo apt-get install package
[01:40] <bruenig> khermans__, if it is upgradable, it will be
[01:40] <joe4444> sgentry6, like i said before sda1 does not exist... the only drives fdisk lists are my two internal hard disks
[01:41] <jasz> joe4444, try the mount command as i typed it above
[01:41] <jasz> if its not sda1
[01:41] <daedalus_> Is there a marillat(debian) equivalent for ubuntu? Repo for packages like mplayer and the like?
[01:41] <jasz> it may be sdb1
[01:41] <hendaus> bruenig,  i show u http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10115/
[01:41] <khermans__> bruenig, but only that package
[01:41] <bimberi> daedalus_: mplayer is in Ubuntu's multiverse repository
[01:41] <Flannel> daedalus_: mplayer is in multiverse
[01:41] <Shinigami_GR> hello !!
[01:41] <cafuego_> daedalus_: mplayer is just in ubuntu
[01:41] <bruenig> khermans__, sudo apt-get install ubiquity
[01:41] <joe4444> jasz, there are no sdxy devices listed by "fdisk -l"
[01:41] <sgentry6> joe4444: sorry did not see that, if you didn't unmount it prior it very well might be sdb1  I have had that happen with my psp
[01:41] <Shinigami_GR> has anyone upgrade fron Edgy to Feisty ?
[01:42] <khermans__> bruenig, hrmm that is just unintuitive
[01:42] <joe4444> can't mount sda1 or sdb1 (as expected)
[01:42] <bruenig> hendaus, try burning them
[01:42] <Flannel> Shinigami_GR: #ubuntu+1 for feisty support
[01:42] <khermans__> bruenig, thx though :-)
[01:42] <bruenig> khermans__, sorry for my unintuitive solution
[01:42] <jasz> joe4444, fdisk -l will not show any usb devices that are not mounted
[01:42] <joe4444> lsusb shows the ipod... so far that's the only command that has indicated the OS knows the ipod is connected
[01:42] <Jetfighter> Can someone get to wget http://ds80-237-203-29.dedicated.hosteurope.de/wt/winetools-0.9jo-III.tar.gz
[01:43] <hendaus> bruenig,  i open project video cd, and then click the .iso file it is small 602kb/s
[01:43] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, winetools is included in ubuntu?
[01:43] <zachary> bimberi , If I want to dump the output of the package list to a text file, what would I use? I tried dpkg --get-selections | touch ~/list, but I ended up with an empty file.
[01:43] <K3nto> !md5
[01:43] <ubotu> To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows
[01:43] <Jetfighter> Is it?
[01:43] <bruenig> hendaus, it cannot be 602 kb/s, kb/s is a rate, your statement just doesn't make sense
[01:43] <arfy> hi all. ccurrently I have a vpn connection to the internet at my university. How can I get this connection working under linux? what tools/packages would people recommend?
[01:43] <Jetfighter> Can I record desktop activity using a program?
[01:43] <bruenig> hendaus, perhaps that is the burn speed
[01:43] <bimberi> zachary: dpkg --get-selections > ~/list
[01:44] <netrat> zachary: dpkg --get-selections >~/list
[01:44] <zachary> bimberi thanks!
[01:44] <jasz> joe4444, :(
[01:44] <bimberi> zachary:yw :)
[01:44] <netrat> arfy: what type of vpn is it? cisco? pptp? openvpn?
[01:44] <jasz> at least my camera used to work... now it wont because i updated libphoto2 :(
[01:44] <sgentry6> joe4444: try ls -la /dev/*da*
[01:44] <hendaus> bruenig,  i can open just open one .iso
[01:45] <arfy> netrat: pptp
[01:45] <[|santo|] > cafuego_ thanks for pointing me in a new direction - i'll see if i can make that work
[01:45] <Jetfighter> Can I record desktop activity using a program? I tried Istanbul, bugs killed it :(
[01:45] <bruenig> hendaus, there is nothing more frustrating seriously
[01:45] <bruenig> hendaus, pick one and burn it, see if it works, use k3b
[01:45] <bruenig> just do it
[01:45] <netrat> arfy: you'll have to install pptp-linux
[01:45] <bruenig> I don't understand what more can be said except to paste what I said in #ubuntu-es and see if they can translate
[01:46] <sgentry6> joe4444: then try mounting the last sda device that shows up (my ipod was listed as sda2 after I had mounted and unmounted my psp a couple of times)
[01:46] <netrat> arfy: just open up the package manager and search for pptp
[01:46] <m1r> eve
[01:46] <khermans__> bruenig, i just mean that im surprised there is no intuitive option for apt -- i would intuit that 'install' means install and upgrade means upgrade :-)
[01:46] <joe4444> another guide i read suggests using "dmesg" to find the ipod if the system does not mount it automatically... however, the output i get does not point to any /dev/ like the guide says it shoud....
[01:46] <joe4444> http://dpaste.com/6751/
[01:46] <hendaus> bruenig,  the dialog burn open i hit start and doesnot read anything
[01:46] <cafuego_> [|santo|] : It cna run with a different admindir, so you can point it at a souce of known-good md5sum files.
[01:46] <cartesian1984> !nvidia
[01:46] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:46] <mike930> can anyone give me any insight on why my kernel is crashing when i run "auto ra0" in my network config on startup?
[01:46] <bruenig> khermans__, there probably is another way to do it, I was just saying that is how I do it
[01:46] <arfy> netrat: thx
[01:47] <cartesian1984> (see, I was hoping I could do that and same someone the trouble of me asking)
[01:47] <cartesian1984> Oh, wait. Lag. I got the message :_
[01:47] <joe4444> sgentry6, the only sda device is /dev/sda ...when i try "sudo mount /dev/sda /media/ipod" is says "/dev/sda is not a valid block device"
[01:47] <netrat> joe4444: try sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/ipod
[01:47] <joe4444> already tried that
[01:48] <joe4444> sda1 does not exist
[01:48] <joe4444> nor does sdb1
[01:48] <bruenig> joe4444, I doubt it is going to be called sda anything
[01:48] <bruenig> let me see what it calls my usb
[01:48] <mike930> anyone have any experience with wireless pci cards?
[01:48] <m1r> <<<not good exp
[01:49] <netrat> bruenig: my usb devices are sd* devices, but i don't know about an ipod
[01:49] <m1r> usb siemens 54
[01:49] <bruenig> joe4444, my usb device is called /dev/sdf1
[01:49] <joe4444> bruenig, according to what?
[01:49] <bruenig> joe4444, according to fdisk
[01:49] <kitche> it all depends if you have SATA drives and what not what your usb is named
[01:49] <netrat> joe4444: ls /dev/sd*
[01:49] <bruenig> joe4444, so try replacing it those commands with that
[01:49] <mike930> nobody know's anything about wireless cards?
[01:50] <m1r> how to set program to run on system startup ???
[01:50] <joe4444> the only "sd" device is /dev/sda
[01:50] <bruenig> m1r, put it in system>preferences>sessions startup tab

[01:50] <bruenig> joe4444, there must be at least sda1 as that would be your partition
[01:51] <bruenig> joe4444, do ls /dev | grep sd
[01:51] <jvai> hey when i had probs with usb disk mounts i found this to work *sudo rmmod ehci-hcd* & WALA! works.. but u have to do that on every reboot once
[01:51] <netrat> joe4444: does fdisk /dev/sda work?
[01:51] <joe4444> bruenig, did you look at my pastebin output from "dmesg" ?
[01:51] <xenex> how do i make sure my video card's 3d support is working from the drivers?

[01:52] <tienbkit> sorry

[02:01] <JW_610> After adding my secondary NTFS HD to my FSTAB what do I type into refresh my mounted HDs?
[02:01] <Milk_> Jetfighter, you could try Wink
[02:01] <Milk_> Jetfighter, or are you looking for just keylogging and such?
[02:01] <preaction> JW_610: sudo mount -a
[02:01] <ThinkingMan> OK, I've done some digging, my machine has the intel 950 chipset and according to xorg.conf it's using the intel 810 driver, under the subsection for screen it lists 1280 x 800 as a mode, however when I try to change it from the screen resolution control panel I still only see 1024x768 as my option
[02:01] <Jetfighter> No, I like making movies of an MMORPG
[02:01] <preaction> JW_610: this is assuming you put your hard drive as auto in your fstab
[02:02] <Milk_> Jetfighter, aaahhh, that I'm not sure of
[02:02] <preaction> ThinkingMan: is 1280x800 available in your Xorg.conf?
[02:02] <JW_610> preaction, Thank you! :)
[02:02] <Jetfighter> Does it record what goes on on your screen?
[02:02] <ThinkingMan> preaction: I can see it in my xorg.conf
[02:02] <zachary> Anyone here have an Thinkpad with the fingerprint reader? I'm going through the steps to get it to work (continuing from last night) but the URL http://www.linux.org.mt/node/82#AEN53 is down.
[02:02] <Milk_> Jetfighter, not in a smooth way
[02:02] <preaction> ThinkingMan: afterward did you restart Xorg? sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart
[02:02] <jessie^^> ThinkingMan: you need the widescreen resolution

[02:03] <preaction> jessie^^: 915resolution
[02:03] <Jetfighter> Milk_,  what do you mean buy that?
[02:03] <ThinkingMan> preaction: yep, tried restarting xorg and the entire machine
[02:03] <jessie^^> preaction: that's it

[02:04] <cimenta> hi, loading pages in firefox takes ages. if I add manually dns (other than adsl modem) servers it seems to me that it's faster.

[02:04] <Kcowolf> Anyone know if the vnc4server in the Dapper or Edgy repositiories got fixed since the major security vulnerability?
[02:04] <jasz> cimenta, .. is that a question or you just wanted to point that out?
[02:04] <Milk_> Jetfighter, no, sorry
[02:04] <Jetfighter> Can...I wonder...
[02:05] <jessie^^> netrat: in xine it will play the copyright warning but then i get 'source cant be read

[02:06] <cimenta> ThinkingMan: use Synaptic to install it. I did it this way
[02:07] <jasz> cimenta, how are you connected to the internet? modem? dsl? cable modem?
[02:07] <rogue780> does anyone know if beryl is going to be implemented in feisty? I can't find it on the features list, but I heard that it was going to be in the release.
[02:07] <ThinkingMan> preaction: so a quick how-to-enable-univers comment would go something like....?
[02:07] <preaction> ThinkingMan: in synaptic, go to Settings > Repositories, and look for "universe"
[02:07] <LazyAngel> anyone else wanna do ssh localhost who have seahorse installed and check if the same thing happens?
[02:07] <cimenta> jasz: wireless adsl modem
[02:07] <zachary> cimenta, http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-6841.html should help :)

[02:08] <ThinkingMan> preaction, gotcha here we go
[02:08] <preaction> rogue780: i believe it's going to be compiz, and i think it got deferred

[02:09] <cimenta> zachary: not 100% but it seems to be much better in windows. it's like "looking up" takes ages
[02:09] <ThinkingMan> preaction: ahhh here we go, installing now
[02:09] <Jetfighter> Hmmm
[02:09] <S3RIOUS> i never see in my life a wireless adsl moden O.o
[02:09] <zachary> cimenta, disabling the IPV6 with that article should help nicely
[02:09] <preaction> rogue780: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/composite-by-default
[02:09] <cimenta> S3RIOUS: yes ;-) adsl modem but the notebook is connected to the adsl modem via wireless
[02:10] <S3RIOUS> cimenta: you dont said that you are connected by a notebook ^
[02:10] <cimenta> zachary: thank you, I'll read it
[02:10] <ThinkingMan> preaction: OK, installed 915resolution, however still don't see anything but 1024x768 in my resolution list
[02:10] <S3RIOUS> ^^
[02:10] <Jetfighter> Heh...Shit...
[02:10] <Jetfighter> Shoot*
[02:10] <preaction> ThinkingMan: you restarted X after that?
[02:10] <netrat> ThinkingMan: restart X
[02:10] <ThinkingMan> no
[02:10] <pettybone> anyone help me, i seem to be worthless when it comes to understanding ubuntu
[02:10] <tritium> Jetfighter: language, please
[02:11] <ThinkingMan> ok here we go, back in a bit
[02:11] <GigaClon> pettybone, whats seems to be the matter

[02:11] <ubotu> pettybone: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[02:11] <mijink> Question: I need to alter my partitions because I am running out of space... how can I login as root to do this? I've installed QTPart.
[02:12] <preaction> mijink: gksu qparted
[02:12] <IndyGunFreak> sudo QTpart?
[02:12] <mijink> Thanks
[02:12] <mijink> Let me try that
[02:12] <cimenta> ThinkingMan: read whole article about fixing resolution. install the script that overwrite the default resolution everytime you boot up your system. it works nicely that way for me
[02:12] <S3RIOUS> only for ask
[02:12] <IndyGunFreak> preaction: why gksu?... little dangerous
[02:12] <Jetfighter> !recorder
[02:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about recorder - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:12] <preaction> IndyGunFreak: because running GUI apps using "sudo" is bad
[02:12] <S3RIOUS> normally depends of the monitor
[02:13] <preaction> so i've been told by this place more than once
[02:13] <pettybone> i am trying to setup my wifi on my laptop and the wording of wpa settings on my router don't match up with kwlan.
[02:13] <IndyGunFreak> preaction: ok... well some would argue using gksudo is bad...lol, guess its a matter of opinion.
[02:13] <PriceChild> IndyGunFreak, http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo
[02:13] <mijink> Hmmm, sudo QTParted returns a "command not known".
[02:14] <Kcowolf> anyone here using vnc4server?
[02:14] <crdlb> mijink, lowercase iirc
[02:14] <netrat> mijink: is it qtparted? linux commands are case sensitive
[02:14] <IndyGunFreak> PriceChild: thanks..
[02:14] <Jetfighter> How do I uninstall a program?
[02:14] <mijink> App name is QTParted, in the Applications/System Tools folder
[02:14] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, sudo apt-get remove foo
[02:14] <netrat> Jetfighter: sudo aptitude remove program-name
[02:14] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, replace foo with the name of the program, or a list
[02:14] <Jetfighter> ok
[02:15] <preaction> mijink: why don't you run it from there then?
[02:16] <mijink> Because it will not show any of my drives because I am not logged in as root.
[02:16] <ThinkingMan> Well, the x restart didn't go so well, but after a hard reboot I've finally got 1280 x 1024, thanks fellas
[02:16] <Jetfighter> I dunno name ofi t, should I use the installer or someting?
[02:16] <preaction> mijink: so you're saying it doesn't pop up a dialog to enter a password?
[02:16] <mijink> Perhaps you could suggest a better partition mangers?
[02:16] <netrat> ThinkingMan: good to hear
[02:16] <mijink> preaction: no it does not
[02:17] <preaction> mijink: that's strange, the installer should've installed a "gksu" link in the menu...
[02:17] <cimenta> zachary: is it possible that I could have IPv6 connectivity?? how can I find? I do believe that your url is going to help me :-) thank you
[02:17] <ThinkingMan> one more quick question, on my previous install I was dual booting XP and ubuntu, now I'm booting Vista and Ubuntu, before I found a driver for windows to read ext2 partitions, but apparently that won't work in vista
[02:17] <preaction> mijink: type "which qtparted" in a terminal, and paste the output here
[02:17] <preaction> !info qtparted
[02:17] <ubotu> qtparted: A parted frontend using QT. In component main, is optional. Version 0.4.5-2ubuntu11 (edgy), package size 202 kB, installed size 716 kB
[02:18] <mijink> preaction: /usr/sbin/qtparted
[02:18] <preaction> mijink: notice how it's all lower-case?
[02:18] <ThinkingMan> So ideas on a filesystem to share data between ubuntu/vista?

[02:18] <mijink> Oopsie... I see what I've done now.
[02:18] <cimenta> ThinkingMan: I use FAT32 for sharing between win and linux
[02:18] <Spinnaker> pls i would appreciate it
[02:18] <mijink> preaction: I got it going now, thanks dude
[02:18] <zachary_> cimenta: chances are you don't. IPV6 hasn't really been adopted yet. Are you in the US?
[02:18] <PriceChild> Spinnaker, what graphics card do you have?
[02:18] <preaction> Spinnaker: don't paste like that please?
[02:18] <netrat> ThinkingMan: just use samba
[02:18] <Spinnaker> sorry
[02:18] <preaction> ThinkingMan: what netrat said, samba is nice
[02:18] <cimenta> zachary_: AU

[02:19] <cimenta> netrat:  I think he can't use samba.
[02:19] <ThinkingMan> netrat, preaction: I'm talking about different partitions on the same machine, not over a network, I didn't know samba could do that?
[02:19] <zachary_> cimenta: wait a sec :)
[02:19] <PriceChild> ThinkingMan, fat32
[02:19] <Kcowolf> I got a "RealVNC Security Vulnerability" warning from my college campus after I was running vnc4server, so I'm looking for a way to resolve it, and it seemed from the forums like vnc4server on Edgy was broken or something.  Anyone know about that?
[02:20] <cimenta> PriceChild:  I said so :-)
[02:20] <cerealkiller219> is there a way for ubuntu to read NTFS drives
[02:20] <mosimea> I've got an nfs mounting problem where I have two Ubuntu boxes; I can mount a share on box A from Box B but cannot mount a shared directory from B on box A - ideas?
[02:20] <preaction> !ntfs-3g | cerealkiller219 ThinkingMan
[02:20] <ubotu> cerealkiller219 ThinkingMan: ntfs-3g is is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. It has been extensively tested but please remember to keep backups of critical data. Installation instructions at http://lunapark6.com/?p=1710 (Dapper) and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009/ (Edgy)
[02:20] <PriceChild> cerealkiller219, it will read it out the box, writing is harder
[02:20] <cerealkiller219> ah k thanks
[02:20] <cimenta> cerealkiller219: no problem with that
[02:20] <PriceChild> preaction, cerealkiller219 ntfs-3g is not required for reading
[02:20] <preaction> it is for writing
[02:20] <PriceChild> preaction, he asked for "reading" ;)
[02:21] <preaction> PriceChild: i was killing thinkingman's stone as well
[02:21] <Jetfighter> I installed a .exe using wine, how can I uninstall it?
[02:21] <guidex> i can't hear divx avi's, only see them, i have all the divx codecs i know of in synapic installed, suggestions?
[02:21] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, run the uninstall program
[02:21] <shatrat> guidex, you must be missing the audio codec for it.
[02:21] <cimenta> PriceChild: what about that. I got 160GB usb hdd formatted to FAT32. I uploaded it under win. Ubuntu doesnt see some files in there
[02:22] <Jetfighter> Idk if there is one
[02:22] <guidex> do you know which package to install?
[02:22] <shatrat> guidex, avi is just a container, it will have a video file and an audio file in it, and you need the codec for both
[02:22] <guidex> shatrat
[02:22] <PriceChild> cimenta, doesn't see "some"?
[02:22] <cimenta> PriceChild: yes. only some of the files in the hdd
[02:22] <PriceChild> cimenta, pattern?
[02:23] <mijink> Hmm, sadly qtparted will not allow me to resize my partitions... currently /dev/hda2 is 20gb, /dev/hda3 is 2gb (root) and /dev/hda4 is 384mb... and when I try to install programs I sometimes get an error saying that the drive is full..
[02:23] <cimenta> PriceChild:  what do you mean?
[02:23] <mosimea> About my nfs issue, it's strange, because I can ping the other box, but traceroute only works one way.
[02:23] <Jetfighter> Testing....Testing....
[02:23] <zachary_> cimenta: are you behind a router at all?
[02:23] <PriceChild> cimenta, a pattern on which file you see and which you don't?
[02:23] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, failed
[02:24] <Jetfighter> ?
[02:24] <cimenta> PriceChild: no idea
[02:24] <cimenta> zachary_: my adsl router, why
[02:24] <beg1689> hey, how do i add some folders to my PATH, in other distros i just put them in .bash_profile but it wont work in ubuntu
[02:24] <Jetfighter> Wtf?
[02:24] <deepbluegene> hi. i have a problem with emacs. whatever i m typing it just shows boxes instead of charachters i m typing.
[02:25] <PriceChild> beg1689, I think you'd need to add them to .bashrc or .bash_profile to .bashrc
[02:25] <beg1689> i tried .bashrc
[02:25] <mosimea> Would no one have any ideas about my nfs problem?
[02:25] <beg1689> would i need to restart? i just logged out/in
[02:26] <apsd> hello
[02:26] <IndyGunFreak> when in doubt, log it out
[02:26] <pettybone> Would anyone be willing to private chat with me about the basics of linux?
[02:26] <PriceChild> beg1689, you should only need to close and reopen the terminal
[02:26] <Jetfighter> I installed an app, how can I uninstall it?
[02:26] <PriceChild> pettybone, what do you want to know?
[02:26] <beg1689> they work in the terminal but i want to be able to use them in the menu
[02:26] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, apt or wine?
[02:26] <ioerror> I need to preseed my dapper install to use lvm rather than raw /dev/sda - it doesn't appear that it's possible
[02:26] <Jetfighter> Wine
[02:26] <beg1689> or in run (alt+f2)
[02:26] <pettybone> where do I start. so overwhelmed
[02:26] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, run the uninstall program
[02:26] <ThinkingMan> god dammit, I hate fat32
[02:26] <Jetfighter> There is none that I see
[02:26] <PriceChild> pettybone, just try and do your normal activities on it then ask when you have a probelm :)
[02:26] <preaction> pettybone: there are plenty of places on the internet that have basic linux tutorials.
[02:27] <joe4444> ok, for some reason i'm now seeing /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2 when i plug in my ipod, but i can't mount either one b/c mount tells me neither is a valid block device...
[02:27] <Kcowolf> Jetfighter: was there an install program?
[02:27] <Jetfighter> Yes
[02:27] <mosimea> :quit
[02:27] <pettybone> alright thanks later guys
[02:27] <joe4444> if it makes any difference my ipod is a 4G (clickwheel) and was originally installed on Windows
[02:27] <deepbluegene> hi. i have a problem with emacs. whatever i m typing it just shows boxes instead of charachters i m typing.

[02:27] <apsd> o idea where that configuration is. i mean /vmlinuz and /initrd.img point to the newer images in my boot
[02:27] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, In the same way as windows programs always have uninstall prorgams, so will it when you install in wine.
[02:27] <preaction> joe4444: open a terminal, run "dmesg | tail", and then plug in your ipod. you should see some messages pop up
[02:27] <Kcowolf> Jetfighter: sometimes if you rerun it there will be an option to uninstall
[02:27] <apsd> i'm using lilo*
[02:28] <preaction> joe4444: specifically, you should see what dev node the ipod is given
[02:28] <joe4444> preaction, yeah i got that...
[02:28] <joe4444> what exactly am i looking for?
[02:28] <zachary_> cimenta: I really don't know how to check to see if in fact you are using IPV6, someone more knowlegable than I on how to find out should help you on that. You can still disable it for a possibility.
[02:28] <Jetfighter> Where is the equivelent of C:\Program Files\ ???
[02:28] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, its in .wine
[02:28] <Jetfighter> Which is where?
[02:28] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, ~/.wine
[02:29] <joe4444> preaction, http://dpaste.com/6753/
[02:29] <mijink> Ok, had to switch chat clients was getting hard to follow the convo with xchat.
[02:29] <Jetfighter> ~/.wine? Ehhh?
[02:29] <cimenta> zachary_: I will do it. I was just curios if I am using IPV6. thak you again :-)
[02:29] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, ~ stands for home, then in the .wine folder inside there
[02:29] <Jetfighter> Oo
[02:29] <preaction> joe4444: perhaps try /dev/sda2?
[02:29] <zachary_> cimenta: typing "ifconfig eth0" is what I thought would show, but it doesnt
[02:30] <Jetfighter> hThere is only home > Wildfire
[02:30] <joe4444> preaction, i've tried them all... mount always says not a valid block device
[02:30] <preaction> Jetfighter: it starts with a ., that means it's hidden. you have to show hidden files to see it
[02:30] <kamaboko> ThinkingMan, why do you hate fat32?
[02:30] <carpediem> mijink: which client makes the conversation easier to follow than xchat?
[02:30] <joe4444> i tried "mount" and "mount -t vfat" and "mount -t hfplus" on sda, sda1, and sda2
[02:30] <mijink> I have a question related to disk partition size; when I installed I set the root partition to 2gb, the swap partition to 384mb and the other "/" to 20gb... I'm using almost the entire 2gb for root and when trying to install a program I get a disk space error.
[02:30] <cimenta> is there anything like total commander but under linux? under Xwindow?

[02:43] <cerealkiller219> yay ntfs-3g works, thanks a lot :)
[02:43] <apsd> Checkka, hmm yeah i don't think there's a linux solution unless its through wine and such
[02:43] <Checkka> Nullsoft streaming video
[02:43] <Checkka> exactly
[02:43] <preaction> joe4444: i'm googling that SCSI error, looks like a rare one
[02:43] <BlackHawk> wine
[02:43] <Checkka> but is there an alternative to wine?
[02:43] <BlackHawk> beer
[02:43] <apsd> Checkka, well ther'es that whole transsomething gaming thing, but i think its commercial
[02:43] <IndyGunFreak> Checkka: if you want to pay for it.. http://www.codeweavers.com
[02:43] <Jetfighter> I do believe I removed it.
[02:43] <apsd> so
[02:44] <Checkka> wasnt there a company recently that released something better than wine
[02:44] <joe4444> preaction, rejecting I/O to offline device?
[02:44] <Checkka> i think it started with v
[02:44] <IndyGunFreak> vmware
[02:44] <Checkka> i just cant remember the name
[02:44] <cobelloy> hi there, im wondering if anyone here has a working usb bluetooth device?
[02:44] <Checkka> yeah there it is
[02:44] <Checkka> vmware
[02:44] <preaction> joe4444: 0x50000 <- the error code.
[02:44] <IndyGunFreak> !vmware
[02:44] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware
[02:44] <n3xu> my machine cant see my 3com network card o_O
[02:44] <Checkka> does VMware do what wine does?
[02:44] <cry0x_> Checkka:  Vmware and wine are two completely different things
[02:44] <IndyGunFreak> Checkka: Vmware is very different from Wine
[02:44] <Andune> !fakeraid
[02:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fakeraid - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:44] <Checkka> i see
[02:44] <joe4444> vmware is a complete virtual computer
[02:45] <StoneNote> Checkka, vmware creates a virtual appliance. wine runs windows osftware. not the same thing
[02:45] <IndyGunFreak> Vmware completely emulates the OS
[02:45] <joe4444> it's a "computer in a computer"
[02:45] <Checkka> which would be more efficient?
[02:45] <ttuttle> I run Gentoo right now, but I have a nice big LVM2 partition that has plenty of room left.  Can I install Ubuntu to an LVM2 partition, and boot it using the same Grub I use for Gentoo?
[02:45] <cry0x_> Checkka: vmware let's you install a completely new OS into your current one
[02:45] <StoneNote> Checkka, though you can create a windows vmware appliance if you wanted
[02:45] <ttuttle> Checkka: wine, probably.
[02:45] <cry0x_> Checkka: wine
[02:45] <IndyGunFreak> wine
[02:45] <Checkka> thanks everyone!
[02:45] <Checkka> :)
[02:45] <preaction> joe4444: looks like a very weird kernel bug. i'd start by using fsck to check the file system if you can
[02:45] <Checkka> wine it is
[02:45] <cobelloy> wow this channel is so big now
[02:45] <Jetfighter> How can I close a bunch of on thing?
[02:45] <Jetfighter> one*
[02:45] <StoneNote> Checkka, last time I set up windows under wine it grew to 20gb
[02:45] <Checkka> ?
[02:45] <StoneNote> Checkka, last time I set up windows under vmware it grew to 20gb
[02:46] <StoneNote> sorry about that.
[02:46] <billy> when editing /boot/grub/menu.lst, that is, adding a "vga=normal" line to it, do I need to place a "#" before it?
[02:46] <Checkka> I dont undestand
[02:46] <Checkka> why ?
[02:46] <maddash> billy: no. don't. you'd be commenting it out.
[02:46] <cobelloy> so, does anyone in here have a working usb bluetooth? i want to buy one that works on linux
[02:46] <Andune> has anyone gotten "FakeRaid" working under Ubuntu 6.10?  I'd love to use Ubuntu, but this is a big hinderance to me getting it installed on my machine..
[02:46] <StoneNote> Checkka, windows is a pig. it grew really large under vmware
[02:46] <ttuttle> cobelloy: Yes, but it's internal.
[02:46] <Checkka> oh you're not talking about wine are you?
[02:46] <Checkka> because that scarred me
[02:46] <sid> What should my pipeline in sound juicer be to rip a cd to wav, uncompressed and full quality?
[02:47] <billy> maddash:  OK, thanks.  It seemed that ## was commenting something out, with only one # being a command or script or whatnot.  I'll try it out and see if I can see the boot process now.
[02:47] <StoneNote> Checkka, no I messed up the first post. I said wine when I meant vmware.
[02:47] <sid> audio/x-raw-int,rate=22050,channels=1 ! wavenc name=enc ; is the pipeline for wav voice quality
[02:47] <maddash> billy: no.
[02:47] <cobelloy> ttuttle: so its not a usb one?
[02:47] <billy> maddash:  wha?
[02:47] <joe4444> preaction, actually now that i look a little closer i think that's unrelated..... to "safely" unplug the ipod i rebooted it and disconnected while it was rebooting... i think that error is caused by the system trying to establish communication with the device # the ipod was connected as before i disconnected it
[02:47] <ttuttle> cobelloy: No, it is USB.
[02:47] <Checkka> ah ok
[02:47] <ttuttle> cobelloy: It's attached to an internal USB port designed just for the Bluetooth adapter.
[02:47] <Checkka> is codeweaver derived from wine?
[02:47] <maddash> billy: # comments out the line after the character. like "//" in C/C++.
[02:47] <cobelloy> ttuttle: oh I see
[02:47] <crdlb> Checkka, yes
[02:47] <Checkka> isnt wine under GPL?
[02:47] <cobelloy> ttuttle: do you know the chipset?
[02:48] <Checkka> doesnt that force anything that uses its code to also be OSS?
[02:48] <billy> maddash:  OK, thanks.  no # it is then.  I appreciate the help.
[02:48] <ttuttle> cobelloy: lsusb says: "Bus 003 Device 002: ID 413c:8126 Dell Computer Corp...iManufacturer 1 Broadcom Corp iProduct 2 BCM2045"
[02:48] <cobelloy> ttuttle: or even the brand might help me
[02:48] <joe4444> preaction, let me monitor dmesg a little longer while the ipod is disconnected before i plug it in again and see if these errors are related...
[02:48] <ttuttle> cobelloy: BCM2045 would be the chipset then probably.
[02:48] <arrenlex> Checkka: codeweavers is a fork of the last mit-licensed fork of wine, iirc.
[02:48] <Checkka> ah
[02:48] <arrenlex> Checkka: codeweavers is a fork of the last mit-licensed *version* of wine, sorry
[02:48] <crdlb> Checkka, they contribute back voluntarily
[02:48] <cobelloy> ttuttle: thanks - googling that now
[02:49] <ttuttle> cobelloy: You're welcome.
[02:49] <Checkka> damn, i was going to get angry at them too...
[02:49] <Checkka> oh well...
[02:49] <Alysum> hi, I've started ubuntu from the live CD but the shortcut to install it is not on the desktop, what is the path to the installation please ? tks
[02:49] <jetsaredi1> is there anything special about the nightly cd images?
[02:49] <ttuttle> Is it possible to install Ubuntu to an LVM2 partition, using only a real /boot?
[02:50] <IndyGunFreak> Alysum: thats odd.
[02:50] <Checkka> jetsaredi1, they're very very new, they're the current versions in development
[02:50] <PriceChild> Alysum, i think its "ubiquity"... but that's very odd..
[02:50] <jetsaredi1> ttuttle: there is a howto on wiki.ubuntu.com
[02:50] <Alysum> thats because I had to edit X11/xorg.cong then restartx
[02:50] <ttuttle> jetsaredi1: THanks.
[02:50] <arrenlex> Checkka: No, I lie. Wikipedia says Wine is LGPL.
[02:50] <wick2o> evening
[02:50] <Alysum> because of a VGA problem, blank screen
[02:50] <PriceChild> Alysum, "shouldn't" have made a difference
[02:50] <Checkka> ah LGPL...
[02:50] <jetsaredi1> Checkka: i wanted to burn it to a CD but its like 1M bigger than the discs I have
[02:50] <PriceChild> Alysum, "safe graphics mode" didn't help?
[02:50] <kitsuneofdoom> I'm trying to use firefox in a vlc session. Everytime I click it errors
[02:50] <Checkka> thats unfortunate.....
[02:50] <arrenlex> Checkka: It was cedega that was a fork of the mit license, then. I get those confused.
[02:51] <arrenlex> Checkka: It could be worse. Codeweavers contributes a ton of patches back to Wine.
[02:51] <Checkka> jetjaredi1, ah, if you can fit non nightly, use that, those version are stable
[02:51] <theblue> How do I add fonts under Ubuntu 6.10?
[02:51] <Alysum> PriceChild: no safe mode did not help, not setting VGA to a smaller resolution
[02:51] <jetsaredi1> Checkka: I was going to run a hardware test for the mythtv guys
[02:52] <Checkka> yeah, its nice that they still do voluntary contributions
[02:52] <wick2o> anyone know what is wrong with this line? append debian-installer/locale=en_US kbd-chooser/method=us preseed/file=/cdrom/custom.seed initrd=install/initrd.gz ramdisk_size=16384 root=/dev/ram rw quiet --
[02:52] <bruenig> !fonts | theblue
[02:52] <Alysum> it doesnt atter anyway I just need to find the path to the installer
[02:52] <ubotu> theblue: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[02:52] <Alysum> its a pain finding it :(
[02:52] <wick2o> the debian-installer and kbd-chooser doesnt seem to work
[02:52] <jetsaredi1> Checkka: not sure what you mean?
[02:52] <wick2o> it still asks me when i try and do my install
[02:52] <Checkka> jetsaredi1, download the latest stable version
[02:52] <Checkka> jetsaredi1, nightlies arent stable
[02:53] <jetsaredi1> Checkka: sure - but I'm a former Gentoo user so I'm used to bleeding edge stuff
[02:53] <Checkka> im just very surprised that wine is under LGPL
[02:54] <Checkka> jetsaredi1, well if  you can fit it, go for it, but just make sure you know what you're doing
[02:54] <Alysum> someone must know what the path to install Ubuntu from the live CD is :)
[02:54] <PriceChild> Alysum, i think its "ubiquity"... but that's very odd..
[02:54] <bruenig> Alysum, ~/Desktop/Install
[02:54] <arrenlex> Checkka: Wine's core competency is running proprietary software. I assume it's LGPL licensed so companies producing this software can integrate wine into it, without releasing the entire source to their applications, which would be prohibitive.
[02:55] <arrenlex> Checkka: Like google with picasa.
[02:55] <Checkka> true
[02:55] <billy> in the grub menu.lst, what is the `ro quiet splash` command doing?
[02:55] <Checkka> ok back to installing wine
[02:55] <Alysum> PriceChild: yes but where in /usr/lib/ubiquity ? there are several sub folders
[02:55] <Alysum> bruenig: I dont have that :s
[02:55] <beg1689> so had do i add something to my path that gnome will be able to see (if i add a menu entry or run using alt+f2
[02:55] <arrenlex> billy: "splash" shows the logo on boot instead of printing kernel messages, and quiet suppresses most text messages generated on boot.
[02:55] <superkirbyartist> bruenig is the guy who told me to sudo rm *.*!
[02:55] <beg1689> how*
[02:56] <foutrelis> *.* ^.^
[02:56] <nate_> sup guys
[02:56] <wick2o> superkirbyartist,  hahah no way
[02:56] <kitsuneofdoom> I'm trying to use firefox in a vnc session. Everytime I click it errors
[02:56] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, you are retarded, why would I tell you to do that, wouldn't it make more sense if I told you to do rm * or perhaps even better rm -rf * or perhaps even better rm -rf /
[02:56] <nate_> a few questions.  I'm using Kubuntu and attempting to do a few things that I cant figure out
[02:56] <wick2o> kitsuneofdoom, do you have java installed?
[02:56] <bruenig> if you are going to flame, at least be reasonable
[02:57] <nate_> I have 2 sound cards and I want to change 1 of them to the default playback device. where would I do this/
[02:57] <kitsuneofdoom> wick2o: yes
[02:57] <billy> arrenlex:  thx.  that wouldn't be the reason that my screen goes blank when I boot ubuntu or shutdown though, huh?
[02:57] <arrenlex> (by the way, for anyone reading this exchange: please don't run any of the mentioned commands)
[02:57] <superkirbyartist> bruenig, you shouldn't be retarded enough to say that "the system will regenerate".
[02:57] <PriceChild> arrenlex, superkirbyartist not here!
[02:57] <jetsaredi1> Checkka: if you check the mythtv pages there's some instructions on grabbing some dmesg output for informational purposes - its just running the livecd as opposed to actually installing and using it
[02:57] <arrenlex> billy: It shouldn't go blank... it should show a logo.
[02:57] <bruenig> arrenlex, yeah why I didn't sudo them

[02:57] <PriceChild> superkirbyartist, ^
[02:57] <arrenlex> PriceChild: ??
[02:58] <billy> arrenlex:  oh.  well, mine goes blank.  My monitor says "Input Out of Area" or some such and I see nothing.  Just trying to figure out why that is.
[02:58] <kitsuneofdoom> wick2o: is that the problem?
[02:58] <Checkka> if I do 'apt-get install progx' and two sources in my source.list has it, which one does apt choose?
[02:58] <superkirbyartist> Anyhoo, the deal is, I got problems with Ekiga.
[02:58] <Alysum> god this is so frustrating :( stuck on it for hours lol
[02:58] <apsd> man, it sucks when linux craps out on ya. you got all of those great distros like ubuntu even fedora and the neat livecds like knoppix and stuff. but when shit hits the fan and lilo gets mad it jsut robs you of it all after one kernel update
[02:58] <beg1689> how do i add something to my PATH that affects gnome, so that i can create menu entries or alt+f2, etc. to run them
[02:58] <apsd> anybod ywanna help me get thos modprobe FATAL out of the way so i can boot with lilo?
[02:58] <wick2o> kitsuneofdoom, could be, id try and remove java and attmpte a reinstall
[02:58] <superkirbyartist> I'd appreciate anyone's help, please.
[02:58] <beg1689> never used lilo
[02:58] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, what it sounds like you are talking about if you aren't flaming is me telling you to rm one of the configuration directories in your home folder which would regenerate
[02:59] <bruenig> I don't remember doing that, but that would at least make sense
[02:59] <arrenlex> billy: That sounds like your sync ranges are bad... does it do that only once X starts, or from the beginning?
[02:59] <apsd> beg1689, no reason you should, really, i just need it for this intel mac thing
[02:59] <superkirbyartist> Guys, I need help with Ekiga, not rm!
[02:59] <beg1689> oh i c
[02:59] <beg1689> so doesnt anyone know how to add something to my PATH? seems like a simple question
[02:59] <billy> arrenlex:  from the beginning.  X starts fine.  it's only boot and shutdown screens that I'm missing.  thx for response, by the way.
[02:59] <PriceChild> beg1689, add it to .bashrc
[02:59] <bruenig> beg1689, gksu gedit /etc/environment
[03:00] <beg1689> i can only affect the PATH used int he terminal
[03:00] <beg1689> thanks bruenig ill try that
[03:00] <PriceChild> bruenig, ~/.bashrc is better as it won't be systemwide
[03:00] <bruenig> mk
[03:00] <kitsuneofdoom> wick2o: still does it
[03:00] <arrenlex> beg1689: In the file ~/.bashc (for local user only) or in /etc/environment (for all users), put the line PATH=$PATH:<newfolder>
[03:00] <bruenig> wait system wide is better than not systemwide isn't it
[03:00] <beg1689> but that doesnt afect gnome
[03:00] <arrenlex> beg1689: Sorry, that's ~/.bashrc for the first filename
[03:00] <cables> PriceChild, notice that he actually wanted it to be systemwide.
[03:00] <bruenig> oh some people have multiple users, I forget about that
[03:00] <wick2o> kitsuneofdoom, what is the error?
[03:00] <PriceChild> cables, I didn't see that.
[03:00] <arrenlex> billy: Oh... no idea, sorry.
[03:01] <ttuttle> bruenig: lol
[03:01] <Edder> hi, somebody know how to configure a Logitech G7?
[03:01] <beg1689> i know how to do it im saying it doesnt affect gnome, only the terminal
[03:01] <ttuttle> Edder: Plugging it in doesn't work?
[03:01] <superkirbyartist> Guys, can anyone help me with Ekiga, please?
[03:01] <ttuttle> superkirbyartist: What's the problem?
[03:01] <billy> arrenlex:  it's cool.  thanks for the help though.
[03:01] <arrenlex> Edder: What's a logitech G7?
[03:02] <ttuttle> arrenlex: It's a fancy optical wireless mouse.
[03:02] <superkirbyartist> ttuttle: It seems that I am sending packets, but not receiving.  And the voice quality is awful.
[03:02] <beg1689> in fedora all i had to do was edit .bash_profile or .bashrc and it worked in gnome also

[03:06] <Wuilliam> ttuttle: yeah im there, but im looking for 2nd option
[03:06] <bruenig> beg1689, probably should define it as ~/ though
[03:07] <superkirbyartist> ttuttle: Any ideas?
[03:07] <foutrelis> EdBoy: System -> preferences -> Theme
[03:07] <bruenig> oh nevermind
[03:07] <Wuilliam> hi to all, i cant to install ubuntu, my pc is a EM64T architecture, but i wont like to install ubuntu amd64 because nothing is compatible, i try to install 32bit and never run the Live CD, nothing happend, the grafic mode never run. i try whit the alternative 32bit, all good, the ubuntu installed good, but in the 1st restart of my PC the ubuntu never RUN, no error, no log, nothing, only "Starting UP" and the Grafic Mode never runs. Some1 can help me!
[03:07] <ttuttle> Wuilliam: I know a *little* Spanish.  Try me.
[03:07] <beg1689> well it would be ~/bin or ~/.bin
[03:07] <ttuttle> superkirbyartist: Did you forward the ports?
[03:07] <cables> EdBoy, drag the tarball in
[03:07] <EdBoy> tarball where?
[03:07] <bruenig> beg1689, put it in there and see, if it doesn't then remove it, it won't damage anything
[03:07] <RobertS> Anyone know the trick to get the keyboard map right in edgy? I'm no expert but I guess I need qwerty. However that's not a choice in the keyboard layout GUI
[03:07] <superkirbyartist> ttuttle: Don't know which ones to forward.
[03:07] <beg1689> alright
[03:07] <cables> EdBoy, open System>Preferences>Themes and drag the tarball right into there.
[03:07] <ttuttle> superkirbyartist: The wizard should tell you.
[03:07] <EdBoy> ooh, I see
[03:08] <bruenig> why is there a /usr/games directory, why don't games go through the regular /usr/lib /usr/bin placements
[03:08] <koprnikus> fella ubuntu lovers.. how do i bring in the aero effect in ubuntu ?
[03:08] <Wuilliam> ttuttle: i know so little english, but i understand, can u understand my problem???
[03:08] <PriceChild> koprnikus, use vista?
[03:08] <EdBoy> That is so cool.
[03:08] <wick2o> koprnikus, why would you want the aero effect?
[03:08] <koprnikus> fk microsoft
[03:08] <foutrelis> koprnikus: Please be polite :)
[03:09] <koprnikus> i just want the window to tile up like in vista
[03:09] <foutrelis> koprnikus: Maybe you want Beryl
[03:09] <bruenig> !beryl | koprnikus
[03:09] <ubotu> koprnikus: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[03:09] <koprnikus> sorry mate.. ill b polite
[03:09] <cables> !beryl | koprnikus
[03:09] <cables> bruenig, how often do you beat me to the punch here?
[03:09] <bruenig> by a long shot
[03:09] <frost-1> is there a way i can play piano using my keyboard
[03:09] <bruenig> unless I am lagging, I would have thought that I completed before you even started
[03:09] <cables> bruenig, probably lag, it wasn't that bad
[03:10] <superkirbyartist> ttuttle: Any advice, please?
[03:10] <foutrelis> koprnikus: try #ubuntu-effects and also do a search for "beryl" in google
[03:10] <cables> bruenig, our combined lag
[03:10] <PriceChild> koprnikus, beryl isnt' for beginners. It is unstable. If you want aero, then use aero
[03:10] <ircusr> hi all
[03:10] <ttuttle> superkirbyartist: Sorry, all I can say is try the wizard.  Are you sure it doesn't work?
[03:10] <ttuttle> koprnikus: Beryl is a PITA.
[03:10] <ircusr> is it possible to install a bootloader to a floppy disk to boot linux on
[03:10] <ircusr> ?
[03:10] <beta-guy> does Ubuntu has wpa_supplicant buikt in?
[03:10] <frost-1> is there a way i can play piano using my keyboard
[03:10] <beta-guy> built
[03:10] <superkirbyartist> The wizard tells me to "forward ports" but which ones?
[03:10] <foutrelis> !pita > foutrelis
[03:10] <ircusr> beryl!!
[03:10] <cables> !repeat | frost-1
[03:10] <ubotu> frost-1: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[03:11] <Flannel> ircusr: yes.
[03:11] <ircusr> how?
[03:11] <scales1> is there an easy way to tell what speed memory is in my computer? i.e., pc2700, pc3200, etc
[03:11] <arrenlex> foutrelis: It means "pain in the .". Also, please ask ubotu about things by using pm, rather than redirecting to yourself in the channel.
[03:11] <Flannel> ircusr: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/Creating-a-GRUB-boot-floppy.html
[03:11] <jbwan> Uh...I need some help rather rapidly
[03:11] <jbwan> if possible
[03:11] <ttuttle> jbwan: okay.
[03:11] <jbwan> before my windows battery dies :)
[03:11] <cables> jbwan, ask away
[03:11] <beta-guy> scales1: take it out and check it? also you could run memtest86+
[03:11] <ttuttle> jbwan: type type type!
[03:11] <jbwan> I'm travelling this week
[03:11] <ttuttle> jbwan: ok
[03:11] <jbwan> and have my ubuntu laptop
[03:12] <cables> !enter | jbwan
[03:12] <ubotu> jbwan: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:12] <scales1> beta-guy, yeah, i took it out. it didn't say. i googled the numbers on it, and i got nothing.
[03:12] <jbwan> wireless works great from home... but ... it won't pick up the wireless here at the hotel
[03:12] <beta-guy> memtest86+ it your best choise then
[03:12] <cables> jbwan, are you using wifi-radar or NetworkManager?
[03:12] <foutrelis> arrenlex: I did not know that I could just talk to ubotu directly. Thanks for the info.
[03:12] <beta-guy> if your using windows I'd recommend cpu-z
[03:12] <cables> !wifi-radar
[03:12] <jbwan> I have tried both
[03:12] <ttuttle> jbwan: Are you comfortable with th eterminal?
[03:12] <ubotu> wifi-radar: graphical utility for managing Wi-Fi profiles. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.9.7-0ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 36 kB, installed size 208 kB
[03:13] <jbwan> I'm comfortable with the terminal window
[03:13] <Annirak> So, after doing a distupgrade from edgy to feisty, how do I ensure that grub still boots correctly?  The last time I did it, I lost the ability to boot and, since this is a remote system that I'm upgrading now, it's imperative that I do *not* lose the ability to boot.
[03:13] <ttuttle> jbwan: Okay, become root and try "iwconfig".  See if it is associated.
[03:13] <PriceChild> Annirak, > #ubuntu+1 for feisty please
[03:13] <ttuttle> jbwan: You'll either see "IEE 802.11something" or "unassociated".
[03:14] <RobertS> keyboard layout help, anyone?
[03:14] <cables> RobertS, go ahead
[03:14] <ttuttle> jbwan: What does it say?
[03:14] <koprnikus> thankx matesss !! i went through the beryl website !! thats xactly what i want .. the desktop cube.. and the transparent themes !!
[03:14] <cafuego_> and the instability?
[03:14] <koprnikus> wow.. yo go #ubuntu @ freenode.net
[03:14] <RobertS> cabels: tried all layout choices for US, keys still don't match, think I need qwerty but cannot find it in the GUI
[03:14] <cables> !tab | RobertS
[03:14] <ubotu> RobertS: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.
[03:15] <jbwan> one moment... froze
[03:15] <zachary> Anyone here have a Thinkpad with fingerprint reader?
[03:15] <ttuttle> zachary: I wish.
[03:15] <joe4444> preaction, still around?
[03:15] <Crescendo> I can't get terminal to open.  It sits there trying to open for a few seconds, then just goes away. (gnome-terminal) Any suggestions?
[03:16] <cables> RobertS, how did you try to add the layout? If you hit Add in the Layouts menu and go to US English (the parent) it should give you qwerty
[03:16] <zachary> ttuttle :)
[03:16] <ttuttle> jbwan: ok
[03:16] <jbwan> it says  ... radio off ESSID:off/any
[03:16] <jpgomez> anyone knows how to configure a Genius VideoCAM NB
[03:16] <joe4444> what does "rmmod ehci_hcd" do?
[03:17] <ttuttle> jbwan: Okay, iwconfig ethX txpower on
[03:17] <jbwan> I can't get it to come on
[03:17] <sid> joe4444: It removes the ehci_hcd module from the current running linux kernel.
[03:17] <ttuttle> jbwan: (Fill in ethX with the interface.)
[03:17] <beg1689> ok it still wont work
[03:17] <ttuttle> jbwan: Did you try the txpower one yet?
[03:17] <joe4444> sid, which is what?
[03:17] <jbwan> SET failed on device eth1 ; Input / output error
[03:17] <beg1689> oh wait..
[03:17] <RobertS> cables: Thanks, that was too easy, was only looking at the sub menus.
[03:18] <ttuttle> jbwan: dmesg | tail -- anything relevant?
[03:18] <Jetfighter> Hi
[03:18] <ttuttle> jbwan: (What card, BTW?)
[03:18] <frost-1> where can i download ubuntu studio
[03:18] <jpgomez> thanks
[03:18] <Jetfighter> How can I exist loads of one program?
[03:18] <goetiaoccultus> what is a save permission to give a folder that has your own programs in it
[03:18] <cables> Jetfighter, can you explain that again?
[03:19] <jbwan> Intel bg2200
[03:19] <foutrelis> frost-1: Search for it in google.com
[03:19] <aorthr33> what's the best place to start troubleshooting sound problems, I just install Ub. and had sound after the initial install, but the first big upgrade/download killed any sound on the system?  Anyone got any ideas on where to start looking?
[03:19] <ttuttle> jbwan: Oh, that *should* work great.
[03:19] <Pelo> Jetfighter,  more specific please
[03:19] <goetiaoccultus> !permissions
[03:19] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[03:19] <jbwan> ipw2200: Failed to send TX_POWER: Command timed out
[03:19] <Jetfighter> I have like.... 5 ScreenHunter Online Help things open, how can I close them?
[03:19] <jbwan> it does .... at home :)
[03:19] <ttuttle> jbwan: Try reloading the module.  rmmod ipw2200; modprobe ipw2200;
[03:19] <beg1689> ok this is really annoying i never had to go through this with other distro
[03:19] <beg1689> why doesnt gnome see programs in my PATH
[03:20] <Pelo> Jetfighter,  try the system manager ,  > menu > system > admin
[03:20] <jbwan> ttuttle: same
[03:20] <PriceChild> beg1689, have you logged out and in since changing it in .bashrc?
[03:20] <beg1689> yes
[03:20] <ttuttle> jbwan: Hmm.
[03:20] <beg1689> and restart gdm
[03:20] <ttuttle> jbwan: Latest driver and firmware?
[03:20] <beg1689> if i run env
[03:20] <gesus> anyone know how to turn off overtype mode in open office? it's driving me fcrazy. thanks heaps.
[03:20] <Jetfighter> What?
[03:20] <beg1689> it is there
[03:20] <ttuttle> gesus: Press Insert.
[03:20] <jbwan> ttuttle: Yes, I updated before I left the house
[03:20] <ttuttle> gesus: ;-)
[03:20] <ttuttle> jbwan: Hmm.
[03:20] <ttuttle> jbwan: Did you test the new version at home?
[03:20] <jbwan> ttuttle: Yes.
[03:20] <gesus> ttuttle, sankyou !! it must be the worst feature in all word processors.
[03:20] <ttuttle> jbwan: Okay.
[03:21] <ttuttle> gesus: Yeah, I know.  I use it about once a year.
[03:21] <beg1689> env shows all the right PATH and i can run programs from the terminal but menu entries that point to them dont work, and i cant run them using alt+f2
[03:21] <AnRkey> I have 5 Ubuntu boxs now and I was wondering if anyone could suggest the best way to centralize the authentication?
[03:21] <Annirak> ooh, make them into thin clients
[03:21] <jbwan> ttuttle: Now my wireless is a bit more secure...requires me to type in the ssid and key. So I've never tested it on an "open" network such as here at the Ramada
[03:21] <AnRkey> is ldap the way to go?
[03:21] <ttuttle> jbwan: Ah.
[03:21] <ttuttle> jbwan: Any other errors in dmesg after you reloaded?
[03:22] <sgentry6> getting closer, how do I associate to a wireless router?  I can now scan and see my router, but I still can not associate to it
[03:22] <ttuttle> sgentry6: iwconfig ethX essid "Your Wireless Network ESSID"
[03:22] <AlbertK> !ati
[03:22] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:22] <beg1689> if it works the mac address will show up in iwconfig
[03:22] <ttuttle> jbwan: Oh!
[03:22] <ttuttle> jbwan: I thought of it!  echo 0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ipw2200/*/rf_kill;
[03:23] <cables> Hey, if I were to buy a new ThinkPad, would the Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG or the ThinkPad 11a/b/g be a better choice for Linux?
[03:23] <ttuttle> jbwan: Try that.
[03:23] <ttuttle> cables: IPW3945ABG, by a landslide.
[03:23] <beg1689> 3945
[03:23] <ttuttle> cables: You have no clue what the other will be.
[03:23] <AnRkey> i am a dell man myself
[03:23] <jbwan> ttuttle: wha... 'ipw2200' needs updating - please use but_type methods
[03:23] <cables> ttuttle, the Intel is known to work well?
[03:23] <beg1689> im using the ipw3945 works out of the box with most distros (including ubuntu) and drivers are easy to get
[03:23] <beg1689> very well
[03:23] <cables> nice
[03:23] <ttuttle> cables: I wouldn't say perfect, but quite a bit better than most.
[03:23] <sgentry6> ttuttle: I had that setup, then ran ifdown wlan0, followed by iwconfig wlan0 essid "<MY_SSID>"  I still do not get an ip from my dhcp server
[03:23] <AnRkey> i phoned dell today and they will even ship with no os for me and remove the vista price from the total
[03:23] <jbwan> ttuttle: back at command prompt after your last
[03:24] <ttuttle> AnRkey: REALLY?!
[03:24] <AnRkey> yeah
[03:24] <ttuttle> jbwan: Okay, try iwconfig eth1 txpower on again.
[03:24] <AnRkey> i was very impressed
[03:24] <beg1689> AnRkey awesome i should asked alienware to do that
[03:24] <ttuttle> jbwan: (The ipw2200 has an "rf kill switch" that can be activated in hardware or software.  echoing 0 into that file tries to disable it.)
[03:24] <joe4444> what does the ehci_hcd module do?
[03:24] <beg1689> (owned by dell)
[03:24] <sgentry6> alienware was bought out by dell
[03:24] <billy> a small victory.  placing vga=791 at the end of the kernel line in menu.lst places the ubuntu logo in the lower right hand corner.
[03:24] <ttuttle> joe4444: USB 2.0, IIRC.
[03:24] <cables> Do Core 2 Duos work well with Linux?
[03:24] <AnRkey> it only saves me 50 though for vista business
[03:24] <ttuttle> cables: Yes.
[03:24] <Xs142> Question; I've updated from 5.04 to 6.10 now (the proper step-by-step way) and I'm curious.. Huw do I get rid of the old kernels from the bootup list?
[03:24] <beg1689> yes
[03:24] <cables> ttuttle, how well :)
[03:24] <ttuttle> cables: (Mine does.)
[03:25] <joe4444> ttuttle,  does it need to be loaded?
[03:25] <jbwan> ttuttle: ahh.... I did see kill switch must be disabled...  so attempt to bring it up again?
[03:25] <cables> Does it support the 2 cores?
[03:25] <ttuttle> joe4444: If you want to use usB 2.0 devices.
[03:25] <joe4444> ttuttle, when i removed it my ipod was finally recognized.... connected via usb2
[03:25] <beg1689> im using core 2 duo, ipw3945, geforce 7600, and even my spdif all work great
[03:25] <ttuttle> joe4444: iwconfig eth1 txpower on; iwconfig eth1 essid "StupidHotelNetworkName"; dhcpcd eth1 (or your favorite dhcp client)
[03:25] <ttuttle> joe4444: whoops
[03:25] <ttuttle> jbwan: iwconfig eth1 txpower on; iwconfig eth1 essid "StupidHotelNetworkName"; dhcpcd eth1 (or your favorite dhcp client)
[03:25] <Jetfighter> http://www.reyreythemonkey.com/forum/index.php?topic=637.0 How can I do that on this OS?
[03:25] <beg1689> what really suprised me is that when i plugged in a usb wifi adapter, it worked immediately
[03:25] <ttuttle> joe4444: that's odd.
[03:25] <cables> ttuttle, can you give me an idea of how fast a Core 2 Duo I should get? What compares to a 3 ghz P4?
[03:26] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, You asked us this yesterday
[03:26] <ttuttle> cables: Single-core P4?  What kind of stuff are you doing?  Some things will be 2x as fast when running on a dual-core box.
[03:26] <joe4444> ttuttle, it's the only suggestion i've found that worked... apparently it solved this problem for other ppl
[03:26] <Jetfighter> I know, but I still can't do it :(
[03:26] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, Install the cshell and use that. Otherwise you can't.
[03:26] <tom47> Xs142 gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:26] <ttuttle> cables: Personally, I have a T7200 (2.00 GHz, 4 MB L2 cache, 667 MHz FSB) and it kicks butt.
[03:26] <nf4> I cant seem to figure out how to get the nvidia driver installed under feisty can some one help me I had it installed and working proper befor the upgrade now it is only the "nv" driver
[03:26] <cables> ttuttle, I do image editing occasionally, but multitasking is what I really wanna have.
[03:26] <Jetfighter> How do I install the cshell, PriceChild.

[03:26] <beg1689> i need help
[03:26] <Thinkpad_Guru> cables: Ubuntu is fantastic using an E6600
[03:27] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, And I don't particularly want to know.
[03:27] <ttuttle> cables: Good, then a 2 GHz dual-core box will *essentially* act like a 2 GHz box where you're only running one thing at once.
[03:27] <Jetfighter> You're kidding? :(
[03:27] <beg1689> yes
[03:27] <beg1689> but *up to* 4GHz
[03:27] <ttuttle> cables: On normal tasks you get maybe 10-25% speed increase.
[03:27] <sgentry6> ttuttle: did you mean to address me when talking about the iwconfig wlan0 txpower on?
[03:27] <Xs142> How do I get rid of the old kernels from the bootup list?
[03:27] <ttuttle> cables: I would say something around 2-2.5 GHz would be good.
[03:27] <Xs142> oh, sorry there
[03:27] <cables> ttuttle, I thought Pentium M, Core, and Core 2 cores were faster per ghz than p4s?
[03:27] <ttuttle> sgentry6: No, that was for jbwan.
[03:27] <Xs142> Tom47 - thanks :
[03:27] <ttuttle> sgentry6: What was your problem again?
[03:27] <Jetfighter> !cshell

[03:28] <bruenig> !msg the bot | Jetfighter
[03:28] <ubotu> Jetfighter: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...

[03:29] <Jetfighter> bruenig,
[03:29] <jbwan> ttuttle: Should I keep the iwconfig params for future reference so I can get it rolling tomorrow?   YES, you are a genius
[03:29] <ttuttle> Thinkpad_Guru: Pentium M FTW!!!1!1oneoneoneeleventythousand!
[03:29] <Jetfighter> bruenig, what do I need to find to install it?
[03:29] <ttuttle> jbwan: Thanks ::blush::
[03:29] <Scorchiolio> Ok, I assume I did everything right. I used the wubi installer as found on http://cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html, it said it installed correctly
[03:29] <ttuttle> jbwan: You should only need the echo part, and maybe the iwconfig eth1 txpower off.
[03:29] <cables> Thinkpad_Guru, that's amazing
[03:29] <bruenig> Jetfighter, are you serious, sudo apt-get install csh, haven't we gone through this
[03:29] <IndyGunFreak> PriceChild: would shc work?.. for whatever jetfighter wants.
[03:29] <Scorchiolio> But when I boot up, I get to the menu and when I push enter on Ubuntu, it goes to a blue screen with a command prompt
[03:29] <ttuttle> Thinkpad_Guru: My Pentium M 735 (1.7 GHz) used to routinely beat our Pentium 4 2.4 GHz's at school.
[03:29] <Scorchiolio> Is that supposed to happen?
[03:29] <Jetfighter> Again - I didn't know it was a package
[03:30] <PriceChild> IndyGunFreak I "think" those "jokes" appear in the cshell...
[03:30] <ttuttle> jbwan: So it's working?  Cool.
[03:30] <Jetfighter> I googled it (Surprise, surprise) and there was a .dll
[03:30] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, I think you should start trying to use Ubuntu for day to day tasks.
[03:30] <IndyGunFreak> PriceChild: i really don't understand what his obsession is with it, i was just curious..
[03:30] <bruenig> Jetfighter, anything that is !info package, is a package and can be installed via apt-get
[03:30] <Jetfighter> Ok, thanks bruenig.
[03:30] <jbwan> ttuttle: Yes, thank you much. I copied the info... I shall return triumphant on a real OS!
[03:30] <phasegen> anyone try the athlon 64 x2 chip yet?  I'm thinking of buying one, and I'm looking for heads-up info...
[03:30] <jbwan> :)
[03:30] <IndyGunFreak> PriceChild: me to actually
[03:31] <kdeedk> anyone tried Ubuntu Ultimate GAmer Edition?
[03:31] <ttuttle> jbwan: Cool.
[03:31] <Jetfighter> I installed it...Now?
[03:31] <koprnikus> gamer edition ?
[03:31] <bruenig> Jetfighter, csh
[03:31] <AlbertK> hi, i don't get the "85" hrz option on 1600/1200. is there any way of activating it?
[03:31] <koprnikus> where do u get it ?
[03:31] <Jetfighter> Dur.
[03:31] <IndyGunFreak> PriceChild: lol, how did you do that?
[03:31] <PriceChild> /notice nick foo
[03:31] <Thinkpad_Guru> ttuttle the Pentium-M uses a more efficient design than the Prescott P4's.  I like using Super-Pi for benchmarking CPU usage.  P4=39 seconds PM=35 seconds Core2duo= 26 seconds
[03:31] <beg1689> AlbertK, do you know for a fact your monitor supports it?
[03:31] <Jetfighter> make: *** No rule to make target `fire'.  Stop. - Thats not it
[03:32] <IndyGunFreak> did it work?
[03:32] <AlbertK> berg yeah, ofcourse, it works on lower resolutions
[03:32] <ttuttle> Jetfighter: They're not real jokes, just coincidences.
[03:32] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[03:32] <Jetfighter> So you can't reproduce?
[03:32] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, Seems like you can't no
[03:32] <beg1689> AlbertK, higher resolutions dont necessarily support the same refresh rates as the lower ones
[03:32] <beg1689> it may not support 85Hz at 1600x1200
[03:33] <AlbertK> berg: am i able to manually activate it?
[03:33] <ttuttle> Thinkpad_Guru: Which Core 2 Duo?  My T7200 gets about 29 seconds.
[03:33] <Jetfighter> % How's my lovemaking?
[03:33] <Jetfighter> Unmatched '.
[03:33] <Jetfighter> That's fine with me
[03:33] <ttuttle> Jetfighter: Nice.
[03:33] <Jetfighter> Lol
[03:33] <AlbertK> beg1689: i'm i able to manually activate it?
[03:33] <Thinkpad_Guru> ttuttle e6600
[03:33] <ttuttle> Thinkpad_Guru: Nice.
[03:33] <beg1689> im sure theres a way, but i dont know it
[03:33] <ttuttle> Thinkpad_Guru: Mine has a higher number in it :-b (T7200) therefore it's better
[03:33] <Jetfighter> I got a better one
[03:34] <Jetfighter> % How would you rate Bush's incomptence?
[03:34] <Jetfighter> Unmatched '.
[03:34] <AlbertK> beg1689:  k, thanks, i'll manage it after work then
[03:34] <beg1689> im on a laptop so im locked at 60Hz no matter what i do
[03:34] <bruenig> !offtopic | Jetfighter
[03:34] <ubotu> Jetfighter: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[03:34] <Jetfighter> I know, I'm done now./
[03:34] <Jetfighter> How do I get out of csh?
[03:34] <bruenig> Jetfighter, bash
[03:34] <ttuttle> Jetfighter: ^D.
[03:34] <Scorchiolio> ok let's try again :P
[03:34] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, I'm guessint exit
[03:34] <ttuttle> Jetfighter: Or exit.
[03:34] <Scorchiolio> When I boot into ubuntu, am I supposed to have a blue screen with a command line?
[03:34] <ttuttle> Jetfighter: (^D is faster.)
[03:34] <beg1689> no
[03:34] <Thinkpad_Guru> Jetfighter: since I'm off to the sandbox in the next month, and still think it's wrong, I rate bush =0
[03:35] <IndyGunFreak> Jetfighter: i think you should take PriceChild's advice, and just use Ubuntu for basic tasks till you get the hang of things.
[03:35] <Pelo> Scorchiolio,  no you are not
[03:35] <cables> Thinkpad_Guru, is there a ThinkPad with nVidia? I can't find one in the T series, and I really don't want to have to deal with fglrx
[03:35] <cables> Am I right that nVidia has better linux drivers?
[03:35] <Scorchiolio> Hmm... I don't think I did anything wrong though
[03:35] <bruenig> sandboxes are fun except the animal feces
[03:35] <beg1689> this is incredibly stupid, i never had this problem with other distros, i cant even add a shortcut to my gnome menu, because it cant see my path
[03:35] <beg1689> if i tell it exactly where the file is, it tries to open it in gedit
[03:35] <Thinkpad_Guru> cables Thinkpads are only confihurable with ATI card, to my knowledge
[03:35] <bruenig> beg1689, you can add a shortcut just put the whole path
[03:35] <beg1689> ^
[03:35] <StoneNote> Thinkpad_Guru, come back safe. bring the rest of your unit home with you.
[03:35] <ttuttle> bruenig: Is it marked executable?
[03:36] <ttuttle> Thinkpad_Guru: And make a blog.
[03:36] <beg1689> bruenig: it works fine in fc6
[03:36] <cables> So what's better? the nVidia blob or the ATI fglrx blob? Anyone know?
[03:36] <Scorchiolio> Has anyone else had that problem with Wubi?
[03:36] <Scorchiolio> *The newest one*
[03:36] <beg1689> blob?
[03:36] <cables> !blob | beg1689
[03:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about blob - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:36] <bruenig> beg1689, that is another setting, I think in nautilus or somewhere else that will try to open scripts or anything else in gedit by default
[03:36] <Thinkpad_Guru> StoneNote Thanks, it's hard believing in something when you've been lied to for so long..
[03:36] <bruenig> beg1689, you need to change that
[03:37] <beg1689> but that doesnt explain why it doesnt see my PATH
[03:37] <whtvrrob> does anyone in here have vmware working properly with edgy?
[03:37] <Goliat1> Has anyone tried to run Tomboy on Edgy?  It's not in the menu, and when I try to run it manually I get errors about not finding gnome-sharp.
[03:37] <bruenig> beg1689, did /etc/environment not work
[03:37] <beg1689> nope
[03:37] <beg1689> if i open a terminal it does
[03:37] <beg1689> but gnome still doesnt see it
[03:37] <StoneNote> ThinkingMan, you're preaching to the choir. :) but it's not about them.  it's about y'all coming back safely. do your job. stay alive.
[03:37] <bruenig> beg1689, did you updatedb
[03:38] <bruenig> beg1689, I think but am not sure that updatedb after the /etc/environment change would be necessary
[03:38] <whtvrrob> Goliatl: i'm running linuxmint 2.02 which is build based off of edgy and it's running tomboy, it was by default, but that means it should work
[03:38] <beg1689> doing it now
[03:38] <beg1689> doesnt change anything
[03:38] <Thinkpad_Guru> StoneNote Your absolutely right in that respect, I appreciate your support :)
[03:39] <bruenig> beg1689, why would it open in gedit if you just put the path
[03:39] <StoneNote> ThinkingMan, anytime.
[03:39] <bruenig> beg1689, unless it isn't executable or something, but even then I would assume that it just wouldn't do anything
[03:39] <beg1689> Failed to execute child process "program-trying-to-run" (No such file or directory)
[03:39] <lando> hello
[03:39] <whtvrrob> Can anybody help me get my vmware working?
[03:39] <Goliat1> whtvrrob, did tomboy just work for you out of the box?
[03:39] <lando> im having some video card issues
[03:40] <jbwan> ahhhhhhhh
[03:40] <whtvrrob> Goliatl: yep, wish i had configured it so i could tell you how i did it
[03:40] <StoneNote> Thinkpad_Guru, anytime
[03:40] <Goliat1> whtvrrob, any idea where else I could go for help?  Not finding much thru google.
[03:40] <bruenig> beg1689, what if instead you cd into the directory and do ./whatever
[03:40] <beg1689> hmm it does do nothing
[03:40] <beg1689> i dont need to cd
[03:40] <bruenig> beg1689, try it
[03:41] <beg1689> in a terminal i can just type the command anywhere, it works
[03:41] <lando> I can't get 3d games to run smoothly
[03:41] <beg1689> my path is right, i checked in env
[03:41] <bruenig> it's fixed?
[03:41] <beg1689> no
[03:41] <bruenig> beg1689> in a terminal i can just type the command anywhere, it works
[03:41] <beg1689> in gnome, it doesnt work
[03:41] <beg1689> alt+f2
[03:41] <beg1689> menu entries
[03:41] <whtvrrob> Goliatl, so you have done apt-get install tomboy ?
[03:41] <beg1689> shortcuts
[03:41] <lando> and google earth is reaaly slow can sum1 help me out ive gone through several HOWtos and nothing :(
[03:41] <beg1689> what video card
[03:41] <bruenig> beg1689, well for the shortcut, do cd ~/wherever && ./whatever
[03:41] <mhemu> lando, upgrade your video card  :-P
[03:41] <bruenig> beg1689, just for fun
[03:42] <beg1689> ok ill try
[03:42] <lando> im on a laptop
[03:42] <lando> integrated 945 chipset
[03:42] <cimenta> is there any file manager ala norton commander?
[03:42] <mhemu> lando, you're pretty much screwed then....
[03:42] <beg1689> failed to execute child process "cd"
[03:42] <Goliat1> whtvrrob, I was trying to get that to work on Dappper, and was having lots of problems.  Had to install lots of stuff and just getting different errors every time.  I upgraded the Edgy because Tomboy was supposed to work.
[03:42] <bruenig> what
[03:42] <lando> hmm i dont wanna go back to windows :(
[03:42] <bruenig> beg1689, are you sure that this directory exists
[03:42] <beg1689> yes
[03:43] <beg1689> it works in a termina
[03:43] <cables> Does anyone use a System76 here?
[03:43] <beg1689> everything does
[03:43] <beg1689> gnome is being crap
[03:43] <beg1689> also worked under gnome in other distros
[03:43] <bruenig> beg1689, ok but in terminal just typing it works you say
[03:43] <beg1689> yes
[03:43] <whtvrrob> Goliatl, my only suggestion would be installing it with Synaptic, and then it should work from terminal to just run tomboy
[03:43] <mhemu> lando, i don't remember if the 945 chipset shares it's ram with the system memory, but if it does you can try upgrading with more ram and then allocating more ram to video
[03:44] <Goliat1> whtvrrob, thanks!!
[03:44] <lando> i ran a test under a intel app i downloaded and it says direct rendering: disabled
[03:44] <whtvrrob> Goliatl, anytime, let me know if it works
[03:44] <Aiken> how do you find what packages depend on a particular package?
[03:44] <bruenig> beg1689, weird, maybe it doesn't like the ~, perhaps if you cd /home/username/wherever
[03:44] <lando> and if i use the glxinfo |grep direct
[03:44] <lando>  command it says its enabled :-s
[03:44] <beg1689> works
[03:45] <beg1689> but why doesnt gnome like ~ piece of crap
[03:45] <mhemu> lando, i have no idea about that stuff. maybe bruenig can help with that
[03:45] <bruenig> wow shots in the dark working is always fun
[03:45] <joe4444> does ubuntu come preconfigured with iptables?
[03:45] <lando> mhemu, no worries thanks :-)
[03:45] <beg1689> i think so
[03:45] <joe4444> i've forwarded a port for Azureus but it still won't pass the test
[03:46] <joe4444> ...and i can't find the iptables config file
[03:46] <joe4444> it's not in the same place as it is in CentOS
[03:46] <Aiken> I want to know what packages depened on network-manager
[03:46] <lkthomas_> hmm
[03:46] <cafuego_> iptables config file?
[03:47] <tom47> joe4444: no it does not come with iptables installed
[03:47] <cafuego_> tom47: It does.
[03:47] <bruenig> joe4444, yes it does
[03:47] <beg1689> it does
[03:47] <cafuego_> tom47: It just uses a different system to store the rules.
[03:47] <joe4444> bruenig, where is the config file?
[03:47] <chorse> Aiken: what installed package?
[03:47] <bruenig> joe4444, I don't think iptables has configuration files as that would be unsecure, I think you can only add rules and stuff via the iptables command
[03:47] <beg1689> if im not mistaken, firestarter is a gui for configuring such things?
[03:47] <Aiken> chorse yes
[03:47] <cafuego_> joe4444: There is no config file. You create ules, then store them using iptables-save and you use iptables-restore to load 'em back in.
[03:48] <lkthomas_> haha, I am wondering if it is ok to run ubuntu as file and printer server with 128M RAM only
[03:48] <chorse> Aiken: simulate its removal,  sudo apt-get remove -s network-manager
[03:48] <tom47> cafuego ty you learn something new ev day ....
[03:48] <joe4444> i've configured iptables with a config file in CentOS... if there is no config file, then where are the rules stored, and how can i view them to see if the port i'm trying to use with Azureus is blocked?
[03:49] <joe4444> ...maybe "rules file" not "config file"
[03:49] <chorse> lkthomas_: 128MB ram are quite a lot :)
[03:49] <bruenig> joe4444, the rules are in /lib/iptables but they aren't decipherable as plain text
[03:49] <joe4444> bruenig, ok then how do i view them?
[03:50] <nfearnley> I'm trying to compile a program that requires kde 2.x libraries. Which apt package would I need to install?
[03:50] <bruenig> joe4444, using the iptables commands which I am not familiar with
[03:50] <cafuego_> lkthomas_: As file/print 64 Mb will be fine,. you can probably get away with 32 even
[03:50] <cafuego_> joe4444: 'sudo iptables -L'
[03:50] <bruenig> I just tend to use firestarter
[03:50] <Aiken> chorse, chased it back to kubuntu-desktop  thanks
[03:50] <whtvrrob> does anyone know how to configue vmware-server for edgy?
[03:50] <cafuego_> joe4444: Of course, there are no rules until you add them.
[03:51] <joe4444> cafuego, yeah that appears to be the case... so why can't Azureus pass the test?  i forwarded the proper port in my router
[03:51] <wick2o> anyone know what is wrong with this line? append debian-installer/locale=en_US kbd-chooser/method=us preseed/file=/cdrom/custom.seed initrd=install/initrd.gz ramdisk_size=16384 root=/dev/ram rw quiet --
[03:52] <cafuego_> can you telnet to the azureus port on the local IP?
[03:52] <rootnode> hi

[03:53] <unshade> I've installed Ubuntu through Wubi, and I get a blue screen. Have I done something wrong?
[03:53] <bruenig> wubi
[03:54] <mhemu> does anyone know how i can compile the current working nvidia drivers into the edgy live cd/dvd so that i don't have to use the vesa driver through hacks to get it working on my main machine?
[03:54] <Xenguy> !wubi
[03:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wubi - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:54] <Xenguy> neither do I
[03:54] <joe4444> cafuego, not really familiar with telnet... would that be "telnet localhost:port" ?

[03:55] <Ottomany> how do I open asl files in Ubuntu?
[03:55] <lkthomas_> why ubuntu don't use first su to root at all ?
[03:55] <justin___> rootnode: I would say that you are better off doing the upgrade from 6.06, for one reason.. edgy was buggy at the start for some who installed it.
[03:55] <NickCz> can someone help me with GRUB
[03:56] <Flannel> !sudo | lkthomas_
[03:56] <ubotu> lkthomas_: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[03:56] <mhemu> bruenig, what/where will ? :D
[03:56] <lkthomas_> NickCz, yeah ?
[03:56] <bruenig> !customlivecd | mhemu wow didn't think they had this
[03:56] <ubotu> mhemu wow didn't think they had this: Creating custom Live CDs is explained on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[03:56] <rootnode> justin___: thx
[03:56] <lkthomas_> Flannel, isn't it's safer to su into root ?
[03:56] <bimberi> !uck
[03:56] <Flannel> bruenig: there's also a wiki page for custom alt CD too
[03:56] <ubotu> UCK is a tool that helps you customise official Ubuntu Live CDs (including Kubuntu/Xubuntu and Edubuntu) to your needs. See http://uck.sourceforge.net/
[03:56] <NickCz> i can't get it to show up and boot
[03:56] <Xenguy> unshade: I noticed the question in the FAQ "Is Wubi officially supported by Ubuntu?"
[03:56] <Flannel> lkthomas_: no.  That page gives the benefits of using sudo over root.
[03:56] <mhemu> bruenig, thanks
[03:56] <tom47> joe4444 bittorrent seems to work without portforwarding
[03:57] <NickCz> lkthomas i load ubuntu on my sata drive and then reboot and GRUB doesn't show up
[03:57] <Ottomany> how do I open asl files in Ubuntu?
[03:57] <bruenig> tom47, it will always work, you will just get lower speed
[03:57] <Evan_> does ubuntu come with irc?
[03:57] <Xenguy> Evan_: sure
[03:57] <tom47> bruenig aha
[03:57] <bruenig> Evan_, gaim if you count that
[03:57] <Xenguy> Evan_: see xchat, or irssi
[03:57] <mbac> nope, we're all ircing from non-ubuntu systems
[03:57] <Xenguy> Evan_: xchat by default IIRC
[03:57] <cimenta> I got 160GB usb hdd. linux shows me that I got 51GB free space and 147used space. it's on FAT32. any idea?
[03:57] <tom47> bruenig works as fast as my adsl link allows already
[03:58] <bruenig> he meant by default I am sure
[03:58] <lkthomas_> hmm
[03:58] <joe4444> tom47, yeah but bittorent only allows 1 d/l at a time... options are very limited
[03:58] <tom47> joe4444 ok
[03:58] <Evan_> thanks xenguy and bruenig
[03:58] <joe4444> i can't even look up the port bittorent uses =/
[03:58] <i3ooi3oo> is this channel on Freenode ?
[03:58] <NickCz> lkthomas_ i load ubuntu on my sata drive and then reboot and GRUB doesn't show up
[03:58] <Flannel> i3ooi3oo: yes
[03:58] <Xenguy> Evan_: yw
[03:58] <i3ooi3oo> lol thats funny
[03:58] <joe4444> i3ooi3oo, didn't you connect to freenode to get here?
[03:58] <Xenguy> i3ooi3oo: yup
[03:58] <Flannel> NickCz: What HD did you install grub to?
[03:58] <mbac> nickcz, can your bios boot off of SATAs?  also boot ordering
[03:59] <i3ooi3oo> came here then saw the ubuntu server so i left and when there lol
[03:59] <bruenig> probably using some softy client which doesn't tell him
[03:59] <NickCz> i checked the boot order and all that
[03:59] <Madpilot> i3ooi3oo, yes, irc.ubuntu.com forwards to freenode
[03:59] <cimenta> !mp3 > cimenta
[03:59] <Ubuntor> how do I open asl files in Ubuntu?
[03:59] <Flannel> NickCz: and, GRUB is installed to the MBR that's your boot drive?
[04:00] <i3ooi3oo> thats cool i guess it give people the chance to find it easier
[04:00] <NickCz> if i am installing ubuntu to "sda" then i should put "sda"  for where to install grub

[04:07] <hivemind> Hey. How can I check what version glibc is? (Via apt?)
[04:07] <NickCz> Flannel: in my bios it says my sda is on my sata2 primary
[04:07] <Scorchiolio> lol Aile
[04:07] <techie_> Can anybody help? I am trying to use either "Sound Recorder" or "Audacity" to record voice audio. However, neither one gives me the voice recording instead I get beeps or silence. Can anybody tell me the correct sound combinations etc to set these programs up? Thaniks.
[04:07] <NickCz> so would i put hd1
[04:07] <Xenguy> hivemind: dpkg -l libc6  ?
[04:07] <Flannel> hivemind: apt-cache show libc6
[04:07] <mbac> hivemind, dpkg --status libc6
[04:07] <pchilds> Hello everybody. Isnt it a lovely evening? Finally got edgy to setup and load with no problems.

[04:07] <NickCz> Flannel: so would i put hd1
[04:08] <Flannel> mbac: either
[04:08] <Aile> o.o
[04:08] <Flannel> mbac: mine does it via apt (so you needn't necessarily have the package installed), the dpkg ones only work on installed files
[04:08] <Aile> ROCK ON
[04:08] <Aile> :>
[04:08] <Xenguy> TIMTOWTDI !
[04:08] <Flannel> mbac: but, they all work just as well.

[04:10] <Flannel> Sonic_13: You'll need to use that to remove some packages, remove ones that aren't installed by default.
[04:10] <Aile> but whatev.
[04:10] <beg1689> what do you need to change?
[04:10] <Aile> :(
[04:10] <mbac> whoa, what's the /lib/tls/ directory for?
[04:10] <cafuego_> your boo?
[04:10] <Sonic_13> i'll check that out Flannel
[04:10] <Sonic_13> thanks
[04:10] <Xs142> Funny enough, we can thank Beethoven for the silly size of the olds cds...
[04:10] <Aile> MAH BOO.
[04:10] <dimas> any body from caracas here?
[04:11] <AlbertK> beg1689:  the range, position
[04:11] <Flannel> Sonic_13: that might reference the "install CD", it means (in modern lingo) the "Alternate CD"
[04:11] <cafuego_> You *know* that moron?
[04:11] <Flannel> Sonic_13: oh, actually, you know what.
[04:11] <Flannel> !minimal | Sonic_13
[04:11] <ubotu> Sonic_13: 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
[04:11] <Flannel> Sonic_13: that one's 8MB or so
[04:11] <Aile> Yes and he's not a moron.
[04:11] <cafuego_> Can you kick it in the head for me?
[04:11] <Sonic_13> i'll try that
[04:11] <Aile> Nope.
[04:11] <omegabeta> How do you reinstall a login manager, currently I just boot in to the frambuffer but i want the funky X login back? any ideas?
[04:11] <Aile> Violence hurts
[04:12] <cafuego_> that's the idea ;-)
[04:12] <beg1689> cant change that afaik
[04:12] <Flannel> Sonic_13: also, if you want to get creative, you cna do netinstalls and other stuff, see help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/ for tons of methods
[04:12] <Sonic_13> ok

[04:12] <Flannel> Sonic_13: but, minimal CD requires the least amount of work ;)
[04:12] <Sonic_13> ok
[04:12] <Aile> He usually has a reason for these things...
[04:12] <wick2o> Flannel,  any tips on preseeding and such? i cant seem to get these first few options to "preseed"
[04:12] <tom47> !sound | techie

[04:12] <Sonic_13> let me grab a blank cd to try it

[04:12] <Aile> I dunno what it is but it must be a valid reason.
[04:13] <tracy> hey - im having a problem, i need to know the command to find out what processes are running (i know 2 i need to look at specifically.. programs).. and the kill all command.. things are running super slow on my machine. programs im using are greying out and comming back, major lag, etc..
[04:13] <Aile> Cause he pwns
[04:13] <i3ooi3oo> flannel : Got any idea where i sould look to see if my modules are linked wrong ?
[04:13] <cafuego_> I don't see how any reason would be a good excuse for notice spamming a channel with 1000 people.
[04:13] <beg1689> well this is stupid
[04:13] <wick2o> Sonic_13,  i just did that whole installCdcustomization bassed off of that page...its some pretty good instructions
[04:13] <Xs142> What on earth does it mean that I'm running on an X server....?

[04:13] <Aile> cya
[04:14] <bushblows> the bot that sits in here, is it an eggdrop?
[04:14] <cafuego_> bushblows: no
[04:14] <mbac> you can use  kill -9 to forcibly terminate anything you don't like if you knows its pid
[04:14] <Xs142> bruenid: Fair enough, but how do I turn it off?
[04:14] <bruenig> bushblows, pretty sure it is custom
[04:14] <bruenig> Xs142, you don't want to turn it off unless you don't want a graphical interface
[04:14] <Thinkpad_Guru> I am using aiglx/beryl, and I am having a problem with video playback,  I had glx/compiz on my fedora core 6 desktop, and I remembered an onption to render the video through X, and it fixed the problem.  For the life of me I can't remember how I did it.  Any takers?
[04:14] <bushblows> cool, but damn
[04:14] <bushblows> ok thanks

[04:16] <i3ooi3oo> . /msg nickserv help
[04:16] <bruenig> renquanta, for the different versions
[04:17] <cafuego_> AndrewLife: I'd say the howto is incorrect. You need fglrx and the restricted-modules stuff.
[04:17] <bruenig> renquanta, dapper is for the dapper release, edgy is for the edgy release, etc.
[04:17] <Xs142> renquanta: That's version 5.04 - 6.10....
[04:17] <dimas> ffg
[04:17] <ardchoille> renquanta: For example, I use Ubuntu Dapper.. many folks use Ubuntu Edgy
[04:17] <renquanta> gotcha...my install is using edgy.  If I see a package I like in a different server, should I add it to my /etc/apt/sources.list, or will that make my system unstable over time?

[04:18] <bruenig> Kikkoman, bsod
[04:18] <Kikkoman> Hmm
[04:18] <ardchoille> renquanta: I don't think you'll find that.. I think as the versions get higher, the repos for that version are better than previous versions.

[04:18] <i3ooi3oo> was it working before ?
[04:18] <Kikkoman> Like "sudo xserver" something
[04:18] <Kikkoman> No
[04:19] <renquanta> ardchoille:  one example - I like tightvnc, but it's only available in dapper?
[04:19] <Kikkoman> It does the same thing every time I boot it

[04:19] <Kikkoman> today ^^
[04:19] <pyrotix> at what point in the boot do yout get the blue?
[04:19] <i3ooi3oo> or trying to still ?

[04:19] <goban> Kikkoman, if you havnt done alot yet and your stuff isbacked up, maybe just reinstall?
[04:19] <ardchoille> !tightvnc
[04:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tightvnc - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[04:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tightvnc dapper - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:20] <Kikkoman> the blue comes up after a window that says "Detecting hardware" or something to that effect
[04:20] <omegabeta> How do you reinstall a login manager, currently I just boot in to the frambuffer but i want the funky X login back? any ideas?
[04:20] <Hirvinen> !info tightvnc

[04:20] <pyrotix> !pastebin
[04:20] <ardchoille> renquanta: That app doesn't appear to be in the dapper repos
[04:20] <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)
[04:20] <renquanta> http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/source/tightvnc
[04:20] <Kikkoman> So is there something I can do about it?
[04:20] <techie_> Flannel any idea why I keep on getting incorrect password..... when trying to identify. I am using /msg NickServ Identify Password
[04:20] <Kikkoman> Because it took such a long time
[04:20] <Kikkoman> to install*
[04:21] <renquanta> Hirvinen, ubotu:  thanks
[04:21] <ardchoille> !info tightvnc dapper
[04:21] <ubotu> Package tightvnc does not exist in dapper
[04:21] <ardchoille> renquanta: That's odd
[04:21] <K3nto> how can i add files to an iso
[04:21] <renquanta> ...so why is the website out of sync with the irc bot?
[04:21] <Kikkoman> :\ Well?
[04:21] <Xs142> Ok, ctrl+alt+F1 didn't help much.. Installer still claimed X server was running...
[04:21] <K3nto> er. make an iso..
[04:21] <Hirvinen> renquanta: You do realize that ubotu is just a bot?
[04:21] <renquanta> d'oh
[04:21] <Kikkoman>  I still haven't had my question answered :P
[04:21] <K3nto> !iso
[04:21] <ubotu> To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <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.
[04:22] <Xs142> Other was to fully eliminate the X?
[04:22] <Xs142> ways*
[04:23] <Kikkoman> Maybe you just forgot
[04:23] <Kikkoman> What can I do about the BSOD?
[04:23] <bruenig> Kikkoman, the problem is hard to identify and seeing as you can't even boot into a prompt would be even harder to solve, a fresh install might be in the works
[04:24] <techie_> Anybody here knows how to set sound configuration for any of the sound programs?
[04:24] <goban> When i hit properties on the volume control i get this Failed to start Volume Control: Failed to execute child process "gnome-volume-control" (No such file or directory), help please?
[04:24] <Kikkoman> Oh no
[04:24] <Kikkoman> I have a prompt
[04:24] <jbwan> Kikkoman: don't use Windows?
[04:24] <ardchoille> What is the correct syntax to use the find command to find /tar/bz2 files and then chmod them all 644?
[04:24] <jbwan> :)
[04:24] <Kikkoman> I don't know what to do while I'm at the prompt though
[04:24] <techie_> I would like to record voice via microphone input using Sound Recorder....
[04:24] <Kikkoman> Do I have to do some sort of sudo thing?
[04:24] <renquanta> ok, thanks all.  G'night
[04:24] <bruenig> ardchoille, something like find . -iname .tar.bz2 -exec chmod 644 {} \;
[04:25] <goban> sudo make -thedamnthingwork
[04:25] <Kikkoman> :D
[04:25] <K3nto> anybody know how to make an iso?
[04:25] <Kikkoman> In Ubuntu?
[04:25] <ardchoille> bruenig: Thank you :)
[04:25] <Kikkoman> Or Windows?
[04:25] <K3nto> yes
[04:25] <Kikkoman> Ah
[04:25] <K3nto> ion ubuntu
[04:25] <K3nto> just from a bunch of files
[04:25] <bruenig> k31th, from what, I can do it from a mpg file into a dvd file
[04:25] <Kikkoman> Well, I would help, except nobody can tell me what to do at the command prompt :P
[04:25] <pyrotix> I was trying to configure the dyndns ip redirect mentioned in the wiki, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_assign_Hostname_to_local_machine_with_dynamic_IP_using_free_DynDNS_service , and when I run sudo sh /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/dyndns_update.sh it returns http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10135/ I don't know where to find the make.dat file it suggests deleting, and I don't remember running into this when going through this in
[04:26] <pyrotix> feisty. Any help guys? I've been trying to find out what to do for a week (my internet was sort of down for that week but that doesn't matter ;).)
[04:26] <bruenig> K3nto, oh like a data cd iso
[04:26] <K3nto> yes
[04:26] <bruenig> good question
[04:26] <bruenig> K3nto, probably some long mkisofs command
[04:26] <K3nto> mkisofs /path/to/direcorty/with/movies -o my.iso
[04:27] <caveman> hello
[04:27] <bruenig> K3nto, does that work?
[04:27] <bruenig> !hi | caveman
[04:27] <rbil> Kikkoman: try this ... sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[04:27] <ubotu> caveman: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[04:27] <caveman> thanks
[04:28] <Kikkoman> gOk
[04:28] <Kikkoman> Ok*
[04:28] <bruenig> !thanks | caveman
[04:28] <Kikkoman> Thanks
[04:28] <ubotu> caveman: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[04:28] <caveman> oh
[04:28] <rbil> Kikkoman: then start GDM ... /etc/init.d/gdm start
[04:28] <caveman> im used to yahoo
[04:28] <caveman> im new to ubuntu
[04:28] <bruenig> didn't realize yahoo was an OS
[04:28] <caveman> lmao
[04:28] <Kikkoman> Thank you rbill
[04:28] <rbil> Kikkoman: if running KDE ... /etc/init.d/kdm start
[04:29] <Gostosao_daqui> server irc.brasnet.org
[04:29] <Kikkoman> -l
[04:29] <Kikkoman> What do you mean by "if running KDE"?
[04:29] <K3nto> sweeeeeet
[04:29] <K3nto> im never switching from linux
[04:30] <rbil> Kikkoman: are u running Ubuntu or Kubuntu? the first uses gdm the latter kdm
[04:30] <Kikkoman> Ubuntu
[04:30] <caveman> from what ive seen i wish i would have came to linux a long time ago
[04:30] <K3nto> Kikkoman: what are you trying to do?
[04:30] <rbil> Kikkoman: ok then ... sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[04:30] <DARKGuy>  < caveman> im used to yahoo
[04:30] <DARKGuy> 23:28 < caveman> im new to ubuntu
[04:30] <DARKGuy>  < caveman> im used to yahoo
[04:30] <DARKGuy> 23:28 < caveman> im new to ubuntu
[04:30] <DARKGuy>  < caveman> im used to yahoo
[04:30] <DARKGuy> 23:28 < caveman> im new to ubuntu
[04:30] <K3nto> caveman: i know!
[04:30] <Kikkoman> I'm trying to get the thing to work
[04:30] <DARKGuy> ahhh
[04:30] <Xs142> What's the difference between GDM and KDM anyways?
[04:30] <DARKGuy> crap
[04:30] <DARKGuy> sorry guys x.x
[04:30] <bruenig> Xs142, one is for gnome and one is for kde, I will let you guess
[04:31] <Kikkoman> Can Ubuntu run Blackbox?
[04:31] <DARKGuy> Kikkoman: yes
[04:31] <Kikkoman> Because it it my favorite windows shell
[04:31] <Kikkoman> :D
[04:31] <Kikkoman> Yay
[04:31] <DARKGuy> Kikkoman: fluxbox, too
[04:31] <Kikkoman> :o
[04:31] <Xs142> bruenig: I installed Ubuntu for the first time about 4 hours ago and I've been updating since then, that's how far my Linux knowledge go... So, that didn't help :P
[04:32] <caveman> are there any chat clients that have voice for abuntu
[04:32] <bruenig> Xs142, gnome and kde are desktop environments, wikipedia them
[04:32] <Xs142> Roger Wilco
[04:32] <K3nto> Xs142: how are you liking it
[04:32] <i3ooi3oo> is there a way to see if a file has a symlink
[04:33] <bruenig> i3ooi3oo, to see if something is symlinking to it?
[04:33] <i3ooi3oo> yes
[04:33] <Xs142> " A gnome hiding behind a toadstool." .... That's not it..
[04:33] <sdistefano> hi people
[04:33] <caveman> hello
[04:34] <sdistefano> my X server doesn't accept remote requestts
[04:34] <sdistefano> did xhost +
[04:34] <K3nto> caveman: are you in gaim?
[04:34] <Xs142> K3nto: I don't know yet, I'm still unsure why on earth I installed it at all. Somewhere along the line I thought it would be better for audio production, but then I realized I know nothing about any programs to use so.. Well :P
[04:34] <sdistefano> and changed stuff in kdm
[04:34] <caveman> im not sure
[04:34] <K3nto> i thought it had support for vouce
[04:34] <caveman> i thought it was irc
[04:34] <caveman> gaim doesnt
[04:34] <sdistefano> and ssh -X
[04:35] <i3ooi3oo> bruenig: ? ? ?
[04:35] <bruenig> i3ooi3oo, I don't know, I am looking
[04:35] <K3nto> Xs142: have people told you about the AppDBs that come with ubuntu
[04:35] <caveman> well maby i didnt find it yet
[04:35] <arrenlex> Linux takes well over a minute to boot. Even taking into account show-desktop-first-and-keep-booting trickery, Windows takes 30, maybe 45s tops. Any helpful hints?
[04:35] <i3ooi3oo> ko np sorry
[04:35] <Xs142> K3nto: No one has told me anything, apart from bruenig here answering my odd and horrible questions..
[04:36] <caveman> i thought i new comp i sure was wrong there
[04:36] <bruenig> Xs142, well ubuntuforums.org is a good place
[04:36] <shatrat> arrenlex, you rarely have to reboot.  also, you could try getting suspend going for when you need to power down.
[04:36] <i3ooi3oo> arrenlex what windows os take only 30s to boot fully ?
[04:36] <K3nto> Xs142: in ubuntu, there is a built in database of all the most popular applications. simply check off the ones you want or dont want
[04:36] <JW> How do I tell FireFox in Ubuntu how to use a different application when opening media files?
[04:36] <Xs142> bruenig: It's half past four in the morning.. I'm not in the mood for forums right now ;)
[04:36] <arrenlex> shatrat: I'm one of those crazy madmen who turn their computers off when they're not actually using them.
[04:37] <arrenlex> i3ooi3oo: xp
[04:37] <bruenig> Xs142, in the future though, you can search too for stuff, there is so much there, nearly anything you can think of has been answered
[04:37] <K3nto> Xs142: you=me a week ago. i had a week without school
[04:37] <fokuslee> hi just to clear things up i m using 64bit OS on amd64 but amd64 is 32bit compatible that means i can dpkg force-architecture install 32bit democracyTV and be ok rite?
[04:37] <caveman> does abuntu have its own zip file opener
[04:37] <i3ooi3oo> sorry no.. it is still loading service in the background
[04:37] <Xs142> bruenig: But why, when I have you? ;)
[04:37] <shatrat> arrenlex, well, I respect your right to be bonkers like that.  Check out suspend
[04:37] <bruenig> Xs142, yeah you can be the new jetfighter (a reference you wont get).
[04:37] <shatrat> JW, its in the firefox preferences under the Content tab.
[04:37] <K3nto> caveman: yes
[04:38] <arrenlex> fokuslee: It won't be okay, because you don't have the 32-bit libraries for your 32-bit player.
[04:38] <Xs142> K3nto: I have 7 years ahead of me without school, but I'm not sure I'm motivated enough as I have stuff working in windows as it is :P
[04:38] <K3nto> caveman: just right click and open with archive manager
[04:38] <caveman> ok so i dont need a zip utility
[04:38] <arrenlex> shatrat: I don't think this machine supports suspend... that button is greyed out in the windows shutdown screen.
[04:38] <caveman> cool thnaks
[04:38] <K3nto> Xs142: lol
[04:38] <davascript_home> linux owns windows
[04:38] <lasindi> Hi everyone, my X11 appears to have stopped working suddenly (I shutdown my laptop, came home, and now I cannot log into my account anymore (gdm does log in).) Is there some command I can enter to generate a new xorg.conf, or do I need to manually change it?
[04:38] <K3nto> !zip
[04:38] <ubotu> Files with extensions .tar, .gz, .tgz, .zip, .bz2, .7z, .ace and other archive file formats can be opened with file-roller (GNOME) or Ark (KDE) - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression
[04:38] <shatrat> arrenlex, it must be pretty old if it doenst support acpi and stuff.
[04:38] <davascript_home> take the ltime and learn
[04:38] <grte> Okay, samba is what you use to share files with a windows box, but what's the name of what you use to share with another linux box?  I'm having a brain fart, here, I can't remember.
[04:39] <arrenlex> shatrat: No, it has acpi, and it's quite new. Just the suspend box is greyed out.
[04:39] <davascript_home> mount -t cifs -o username=danny //server/share
[04:39] <shatrat> grte, nfs is the unix network filesystem
[04:39] <K3nto> !samba
[04:39] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[04:39] <Aiken> grte, samba or nfs
[04:39] <Xs142> K3nto:  Guess I got spoiled with the simplicity of click'n'wait installations that windows provide..
[04:39] <caveman> this is the best classrom ive seen yet
[04:39] <i3ooi3oo> lasindi crtl-alt f1 ?
[04:39] <davascript_home> mount -t cifs -o username=danny //server/share  /mount/point
[04:39] <jb0nd38372> grte, would that be nfs?
[04:39] <grte> NFS, that's it!  Thanks.
[04:39] <nikitis> What's some good DVD-Ripping Software?
[04:39] <K3nto> sweet, ive been searching for something like samba for a while
[04:39] <Xs142> bruenig: Correct, I don't get it .p
[04:39] <grte> I was thinking LFS for some reason.
[04:39] <davascript_home> you can use samba shares also
[04:39] <lasindi> i3ooi3oo: oh, yes, I can get to the console, but I'm not sure how to fix X11 from there.
[04:39] <OptimusPrimeRib> nikitis, Acid Rip
[04:40] <grte> Yeah, but I'd rather use NFS, I haven't got any windows boxes to worry about.
[04:40] <shatrat> arrenlex, well, I dont know much about suspend, but there's quite a few threads on it on the forums.
[04:40] <davascript_home> nano -w /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:40] <nikitis> OptimusPrimeRib, does it shrink movies on to DVD-R?
[04:40] <K3nto> Xs142: yeah. its just a little more rewarding doing a little bit of work (and learning in the process) to get what you want
[04:40] <davascript_home> word
[04:40] <bruenig> it was this idiot who must have been in here for 3 straight days who would ask every single thing you could think of and even stuff that we had already answered. Like we told him to install such and such do sudo apt-get install whatever, and he never quite grasped that whatever can be filled with any of his questions about installing stuff.
[04:40] <arrenlex> shatrat: I'll look at them... thanks for your time.
[04:40] <shatrat> arrenlex, Good luck.
[04:41] <caveman> well im kinda taking notes
[04:41] <shatrat> bruenig, you talking about that Jetwhatever guy?
[04:41] <caveman> thats how i learned windows
[04:41] <bruenig> shatrat, yeah
[04:41] <shatrat> bruenig, Could you tell me how the internet works in 20 words or less plz? k thnx
[04:41] <Xs142> K3nto: While true, one also have to know what to look for... Finding MSC translators for windows was heck in itself, I'm not sure I want to experience the linux take on it :P
[04:42] <johnson7340> Hi Everyone :)
[04:42] <OptimusPrimeRib> nikitis, Acid Rip encodes DVDs as movie files. You can specify the output size of the file, but it won't play in a DVD player if you put it on a DVD
[04:42] <K3nto> !msc
[04:42] <ubotu> msc: Generates simple ASCII message sequence charts. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.1.1-2 (edgy), package size 7 kB, installed size 76 kB
[04:42] <Xs142> Oh shush ubotu, that's not what I meant :P
[04:42] <Xs142> MSC - Midi Studio Controller..
[04:42] <K3nto> lol just checking
[04:42] <nikitis> OptimusPrimeRib, How do you tell acid rip to look for your dvd drive at a different location.  It's currently looking at /dev/dvd
[04:42] <bruenig> i3ooi3oo, you can figure out how many symlinks a file has by doing find whatever -links n, just guess and check I guess. Like for instance, find /usr/lib/firefox/firefox -links 1 outputs firefox which means it has one symbolic link
[04:43] <bruenig> but -links 2 won't output anything because it doesn't have 2 links
[04:43] <Xs142> It's basicly a syntesizer without any hardware..
[04:43] <Shinma> hiya anyone willing to help me work out a problem im having with grub, and Vista? I've scowered the net and tried different things, but grub just beeps my PC speaker repeatedly
[04:43] <JW> In Ubuntu 6.10 why does FireFox tell me "Can't Parse That" when I try to listen to a streaming audio file from the Internet?
[04:43] <shatrat> JW, maybe it's trying to display it as text instead of play it.
[04:44] <Xs142> ...God... I gotta configure the USB, the MSC and the bloody soundcard too...     .zZ
[04:44] <whtvrrob> can anyone help me set up vmware in edgy
[04:44] <shatrat> JW, try copying the URL and opening it in some media player
[04:44] <K3nto> Xs142: i searched in Add/Remove and there are a few that come up. "midi control" is what i searched.
[04:44] <OptimusPrimeRib> nikitis, in the acidrip window, change the "path" field to point to your dvd drive
[04:44] <Cryoniq> How do I setup quick buttons to smb shares from Ubuntu edgy so that they apear as shortcuts to a smb server I have with storage?
[04:44] <mvfeinstein> Can anyone here recommend a good music player hopefully something like itunes
[04:44] <JW> shatrat, how would I change it to open with XMMS?
[04:44] <Number2> Hello, I just installed the latest nvidia drivers, and they sort of work, what happens is when i reboot the x server fails to start, then i have to rerun the nvidia installer and then start gdm again, when i installed the drivers it told me that it was forced to guess the X library path (usr/lib) and x module path (/usr/lib/xorg/moduls) these paths were not queryable from the system.......... It say i need to get pkg-config and
[04:44] <Number2> X.org sdk/development files for my distribution and rerun the Nvidia installer
[04:44] <shatrat> mvfeinstein, itunes isnt what I would consider a good music player.  Maybe rythymbox if you like the whole "library" thing
[04:44] <goban> When i hit properties on the volume control i get this Failed to start Volume Control: Failed to execute child process "gnome-volume-control" (No such file or directory), help please?
[04:44] <kitche> mvfeinstein: songbird
[04:44] <nikitis> I don't have a window.  i was doing through commandline.  how do I get the window?
[04:45] <Xs142> K3nto:  Let's hope it's a studio controller in there.... a midi controller won't do me any good :P
[04:45] <StoneNote> Xs142, sudo apt-get install rosegarden4
[04:45] <Cryoniq> Midninght commander doesnt seem to find the network smb share I have on my network.. hmm.. and I am sure I changed the smb.conf and set the correct workgroup etc.
[04:45] <shatrat> JW, did you try adding it under firefox Preferences / Content / File Types?
[04:45] <Xs142> StoneNote: Come again?
[04:45] <Shinma> Basically I already had Vista installed, when I installed Ubuntu it installed Grub, but Grub would not load Vista so I restored the Vista boot manager, I used EasyBCD to add Ubuntu to the boot manager and used the Live DVD to install grub onto the partition (hd1,5) however whenever I try to boot Ubuntu my PC speaker just beeps and nothing happens. Also I made sure the ext3 partition with / on it was bootable
[04:45] <nikitis> OptimusPrimeRib, how do we get the window for acid rip?  I was doing through commandline
[04:45] <mvfeinstein> shatrat kitche i have tried rythymbox and song bird and really wasnt impressed with either one
[04:45] <JW> shatrat, I didn't know I could manually add filetypes under FireFox?
[04:46] <Sonic_13> i have a question about partitioning the disk
[04:46] <bruenig> !justask
[04:46] <StoneNote> Xs142, you might be interested in hydrogen & ardour-gtk.  they are audio programs for linux\
[04:46] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:46] <OptimusPrimeRib> nikitis, when you apt-get install acidrip, it should install the gtk gui
[04:46] <Xs142> StoneNote: Sure, I'll look them up and see if they're of any help to me
[04:47] <StoneNote> Xs142, ardour-gtk - digital audio workstation (graphical gtk interface) rosegarden4 - music editor and MIDI/audio sequencer  hydrogen - Simple drum machine/step sequencer
[04:47] <shatrat> JW, yeah I just tried it, apparently it doesnt work how I thought it did.  in that case I dont know.
[04:47] <JW> :/
[04:47] <arrenlex> shatrat: Yeah, suspend\hibernate didn't work so well... go go gadget system freeze and hard reboot!
[04:47] <shatrat> mvfeinstein, beep media player?  You could just fire up synaptic and try as many as possible
[04:47] <Xs142> StoneNote: Oooh MIDI sequencer, that's just about the only thing that's close to what I need ^^
[04:48] <shatrat> arrenlex, yeah, some video drivers and wireless drivers need workarounds I believe.  It didnt work out of the box on my brothers laptop an I didnt care enough to try and figure it out
[04:48] <Sonic_13> what is the difference between 1) Erase entire disk and 2) Erase entire disk and use LVM ?
[04:48] <StoneNote> Xs142, hth
[04:48] <K3nto> Xs142: i PMd u a description of one
[04:48] <bruenig> Sonic_13, if you don't know what lvm is, then you probably want 1
[04:48] <JW> Help! I am wanting to  setup a shoutcast server from my PC so I can listen to it, what would I need?
[04:49] <Sonic_13> lol, ok
[04:49] <Thinkpad_Guru> Sonic_13 LVM is logical volume management.

[04:49] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, what is your trouble in setting up vmware in edgy? I've always just followed the directions int he README and everything worked fine
[04:49] <fokuslee> arrenlex: ok im trying to get the mplayer32 bit working on my system first then see if democracy will work
[04:49] <Shinma> so anyone have any ideas about my Grub+Vista+Bootmanager+EasyBCD question?
[04:49] <shatrat> cavediver, just create a directory named "photos" and copy them there? you can even tag the folder with a little Photos icon in properties if you want
[04:49] <kalorin> MojoMagic, were you and I working an XWin issue with my ATI card the other night

[04:49] <caveman> thanks so much
[04:50] <K3nto> Xs142: what you were lookin for?
[04:50] <whtvrrob> stonenote, i have it installed, but it says it's not properly configured, it's vmware-server
[04:50] <MojoMagic> kalorin: Sorry mate. Wasn't me.   :)
[04:50] <Xs142> StoneNote: It's getting closer atleast so I hope too :P
[04:50] <Sonic_13> if i want to say, use it as a file server or web server just for my house or personal webpage, what would you recommend?
[04:50] <caveman> i am just amazed i have never been in a chat room where a person could actually find help
[04:50] <Xs142> Now how on earth am I supposed to install the drivers for the soundcard + the usb ports?
[04:51] <caveman> thanks guys
[04:51] <shatrat> caveman, keep asking easy questions and you get lots of help.
[04:51] <Shinma> Basically I already had Vista installed, when I installed Ubuntu it installed Grub, but Grub would not load Vista so I restored the Vista boot manager, I used EasyBCD to add Ubuntu to the boot manager and used the Live DVD to install grub onto the partition (hd1,5) however whenever I try to boot Ubuntu my PC speaker just beeps and nothing happens. Also I made sure the ext3 partition with / on it was bootable..
[04:51] <Shinma> sorry i dont mean to repeat :)
[04:51] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, well, what says that? the console when you try to connect to the server?  the server when it tries to start? a virtual appliance when you try to start one?

[04:51] <I_Eat_Plastic> how can I modify a users right so they can execute things in a certain directory?

[04:52] <phewl> sudo chmot +x dirc
[04:52] <phewl> sudo chmot +x directory
[04:52] <bruenig> I_Eat_Plastic, it is probably more of modifying that directory than the user
[04:52] <phewl> sudo chmod +x directory
[04:52] <phewl> -r
[04:52] <phewl> fuck the shit
[04:52] <whtvrrob> stonenote, when i go to power on my virtual machine i get the following error message "VMware Server Error:

[04:53] <ubotu> I think there is a link about converting different disk image formats: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <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.
[04:54] <Thinkpad_Guru> Sonic_13 you are probebly smarter than I, however I find a regular partition scheme is adaquate.

[04:55] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, when you install the server there is an install program called vmware-install.pl and when it runs is asks you if you want it to start vmware-config.pl .. if you said NO you did it wrong.  You can either start from scratch or open a terminal and sudo vmware-config/pl
[04:55] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, sudo vmware-config.pl
[04:55] <whtvrrob> stonenote, i've run the config, it says that it was configured properly, and it still doesn't work

[04:58] <bruenig> Xs142, what are you installing
[04:58] <Xs142> I was looking for drivers for the soundcard, but these seems bad anyways
[04:58] <StoneNote> Xs142, ok, I'm out of my depth dealing with that hardware. best of luck

[05:01] <Xs142> Bloody heck, there seems to be a supported driver from the hardware supplier...
[05:01] <caotic_> hi, im having a common problem the grub after a windows intallation, im following this tread http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351 but i want to know what is the file stage1 and why i have a stage2 also (grub>find /boot/grub/stage1)
[05:02] <arrenlex> fokuslee: Why mess with chroots? Why not just run a 32-bit system?
[05:02] <bruenig> chroots are 1337
[05:02] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, ok, start from scratch. go whereever you unpacked the files and sudo ./vmware-install.pl ... when I do this I reinstall three packages the server, the mui, and the server console.  the vmperl & vix (c apis) install when I install the server.
[05:02] <nikitis> OptimusPrimeRib, I got it installed.  But I'm confused on what to do.  I selected the 1:50 min chapter and set it to 700
[05:03] <nikitis> but it freezes at  estimated file size of 492
[05:03] <whtvrrob> stonenote, tried that and it's not working, and i'm out for the night, thanks for the help thought, i'm sure with time i'll get it, thanks again
[05:03] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, ok. take care
[05:04] <fokuslee> arrenlex im not messing with chroot i am trying to organize my stuff so i can reinstall with 32bit
[05:04] <fokuslee> hence my question : )
[05:05] <arrenlex> fokuslee: Organise what? Copy your home directory...
[05:06] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, this is a pretty good how to http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_vmware_server\
[05:06] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, this is a pretty good how to http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_vmware_server
[05:06] <bruenig> double good
[05:07] <bruenig> there is a howto on the forums for vmware that I used and it worked
[05:07] <goban> whats the command to kill a process? xkillall processname?
[05:08] <bruenig> goban, killall processname might work
[05:08] <mneptok> kill -9 PID
[05:08] <fokuslee> arrenlex like copy my work funstuff mp3s movies to a shared drive betwween linux and windoz
[05:08] <StoneNote> bruenig, cool. I did it the hard way and banged my head against a wall until I figured it out.  but that how to pretty much IS what I do, except I also d/l and install the server console
[05:08] <bruenig> goban, kill -9 pid works for sure though
[05:08] <Xs142> How do I figure out where my Kernel Source is installed...?
[05:08] <bruenig> Xs142, it is in /usr/src
[05:09] <shatrat> Xs142, its in /usr/src/linux
[05:09] <Xs142> In the words of the late virgin Mary.. Come again?
[05:09] <bruenig> Xs142, except that it is /usr/src/linux-blah-blah-blah
[05:09] <shatrat> Xs142, do you know what nemesis means?
[05:10] <goban> bruenig, thanks
[05:10] <shatrat> Xs142, in that case you probably dont need to know where your kernel sources are.
[05:10] <goban> When i hit properties on the volume control i get this Failed to start Volume Control: Failed to execute child process "gnome-volume-control" (No such file or directory), help please?
[05:10] <Xs142> shatrat: A righteous infliction of retribution manifested by an appropriate agent. Personified in this case by an 'orrible cunt... me. ... Or in this case. Ubuntu..

[05:11] <Tonren> What does apt-get dist-upgrade do, exactly?
[05:11] <Xs142> Tonren: Upgrade your dist
[05:11] <Tonren> Xs142: What does that *mean*?
[05:11] <Xs142> tonren: Dist being the current version of your Ubuntu
[05:12] <Tonren> Xs142: But you don't just run "dist-upgrade" to go from Dapper to Edgy.
[05:12] <bruenig> Tonren, do man apt-get and scroll down to dist-upgrade
[05:12] <Tonren> bruenig: good call
[05:12] <Xs142> Tonren: Just don't listen to me and you'll be all good.
[05:13] <bruenig> Xs142, you aren't wrong, it does some other things though as well
[05:13] <Xs142> KERNEL_SOURCE :=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build
[05:13] <Xs142> what am I supposed to put in there to make it right?
[05:14] <StoneNote> Xs142, open a terminal, enter "uname -r" without the quotes and tell me what it says
[05:14] <Xs142> 2.6.17-11-386
[05:14] <shatrat> well, in a command `uname -r` will insert the correct kernel version.
[05:14] <shatrat> 386?
[05:15] <shatrat> why not generic
[05:15] <Xs142> Don't look at me, I'm just pushing buttons..
[05:15] <bruenig> Xs142, that will work
[05:15] <StoneNote> Xs142, sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-386 linux-header-2.6.17-11-386
[05:15] <bruenig> Xs142, that think you had above should work
[05:15] <whtvrrob> stonenote, i'm now trying to just get vmware-player to work, using synaptic
[05:15] <Tonren> Xs142: When you put something between `s on the command line, it actually substitutes the output of that command
[05:16] <shatrat> I think its linux-headers-`uname -r` isnt it?
[05:16] <bruenig> thing*
[05:16] <whtvrrob> stonenote, and i keep getting an error "E: vmware-player: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1"
[05:16] <Tonren> Xs142: So, typing KERNEL_SOURCE :=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build is literally the same effect as typing KERNEL_SOURCE :=/lib/modules/2.6.17-11-386/build.
[05:16] <K3nto> why cant i shrink my windows partition?
[05:16] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, ok. one word of warning: vmplayer and vmware server do not play well together. vmware sever has never loaded on a machine that had player on it until I removed vmplayer
[05:16] <K3nto> i have to be root right
[05:16] <K3nto> for gparted
[05:16] <Xs142> @all: So I shouldn't change anything at all then
[05:16] <hendaus> hello

[05:17] <RogueThunder> Excuse me, I am trying to get windows to boot on a computer that already has linux on it, I've herd windows needs to be the first partion, but i cant figure out how to do this without wiping my nix... which i dnt want to do.
[05:17] <Tonren> RogueThunder: If you can't get that figured out, VMWare is an option
[05:17] <whtvrrob> stonenote, i will remove vmplayer beforehand, but using vmx i can make my virtual machines, so if i get vmplayer working for now that'll be good until i have more time to work on vmserver
[05:17] <bruenig> Xs142, yeah no need to change
[05:17] <K3nto> how do i shrink my windows partition with gparted
[05:17] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, true
[05:17] <RogueThunder> Toren: No, it isnt, the computer its on is wholey too slow.
[05:17] <bruenig> K3nto, right click resize

[05:18] <kdeedk> techie_ you might want to try VLC
[05:18] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, could be the way you set it up when it asked you for networking options. check out the how to link I posted on vmware and follow it's instructions next time.  you should be fne

[05:19] <bruenig> K3nto, it wouldn't or it doesn't
[05:19] <whtvrrob> stonenote, i did change the networking, only thing was from eth0 to ath0 since i'll be using my wireless internet, not my wired
[05:19] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, direct answer is, no. based on the error message I cannot determine what caused the problem since you say you did run vmware-config.pl

[05:21] <bruenig> K3nto, it can't be mounted
[05:21] <K3nto> just unmount it?
[05:21] <bruenig> K3nto, yeah
[05:21] <K3nto> ok

[05:24] <whtvrrob> k3nto, i take it that it's not considering that it doesn't show up on qrz, it's just because of the basic layout, ham being amatuer radio, qrz being qrz.com

[05:26] <Daeme1> Anyone know what might cause an "error loading operating system" error after a fresh install?
[05:26] <shatrat> xenex, http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&ct=res&cd=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.highdefforum.com%2Fshowthread.php%3Ft%3D6537&ei=1if2RcruC6TOpwLLtdHoAQ&usg=__lJlk7Wmf8dy9g8QGibEk_xfH4E0=&sig2=jZjqwwtlf3A2oKJ0fRCrgw
[05:26] <bruenig> wow look at that url
[05:26] <Xs142> still stuck :-/
[05:27] <shatrat> yeah I probably shouldnt have pasted the google url
[05:27] <xenex> shatrat: Those are exe's?
[05:27] <xenex> nevermind
[05:27] <shatrat> xenex, no, theyre video files.  some are DRMed though, those wont play regardless
[05:27] <CaptainMorgan> Thinkpad_Guru, yes, I will placing a new one in it's place.. for some reason, I can just write over a partition... it needs empty space for installation
[05:27] <CaptainMorgan> can = can't
[05:27] <Thinkpad_Guru> CaptianMorgan http://www.ambience.sk/fdisk-master-boot-record-windows-linux-lilo-fixmbr.php is a good free windows MBR tool
[05:28] <Thinkpad_Guru> CaptianMorgan thats wierd. Your installing ubuntu?
[05:28] <CaptainMorgan> yea
[05:28] <CaptainMorgan> very weird...
[05:28] <bruenig> cant clearly != can't
[05:29] <CaptainMorgan> once I emptied a partition the other day, I was able to put it on with no problems
[05:29] <CaptainMorgan> but if it contained anything.. the system wouldn't boot from the cd
[05:29] <Thinkpad_Guru> CaptianMorgan anyway that should get your MBR fixed, if you just delete grub, the grub screen will just fail to find anything when you reboot your computer.
[05:29] <ahave_> liveCD keeps rebooting instead of loading... any help?
[05:30] <pchilds> does anyone know how to configure soundblaster live card to play all channels instead of just two? I have a five speaker setup but only two play.
[05:30] <K3nto> ahave_: keeps rebooting?
[05:30] <Tonren> I have a MySQL server running on the standard port (3306) but for some reason the port doesn't appear to be open.
[05:30] <K3nto> ahave_: you mean its not loading the live cd?
[05:30] <ahave_> K3nto, yes. but only if i select an option
[05:30] <Tonren> iptables doesn't block anything by default, right?  I'm using port forwarding on my router, so why wouldn't it be working?
[05:30] <Dr_willis> pchilds,  what are you playing that has 5.1 sound?
[05:30] <Dr_willis> pchilds,  for mp3's and stuff i belive ive twiddled with the alsamixer to mirror the front speakers to the rear.
[05:30] <beta-guy> I need help getting WPA_gui for wpa_supplicant
[05:30] <ahave_> K3nto, i get the initial menu, but reboots when i select Start or CD check

[05:31] <whtvrrob> hendaus_, is it an exe?
[05:31] <Tonren> How do I restart mysqld properly?
[05:31] <rootnode> and another problem: somehow, my /home partition is in read-only mode
[05:31] <xenex> shatrat: Got any other places? These files are huge.
[05:31] <pchilds> thanks Dr willis. Exactly what did you twiddle with in alsamixer?
[05:31] <hendaus_> whtvrrob,  no its msi
[05:31] <shatrat> xenex, not really no.
[05:31] <Tonren> With some kind of init.d thing?
[05:31] <rootnode> when i try to remount it with "mount -o remount,rw /home", i got some weird messages
[05:32] <xerophyte> does anybody know any good gnome based time application which show both time GMT and EST?
[05:32] <xenex> shatrat: http://www.flurl.com/item/Best_Beer_Commercial_EVER_u_236625
[05:32] <Xs142> Ok so I got into the right directory, obviously I get a new error:
[05:32] <Xs142> /lib/modules/2.6.17-11-386/include/linux/version.h is missing. Please run make config in your kernel source tree
[05:32] <xenex> shatrat: is that a wmv?
[05:32] <Brendan__> So I upgraded my kernel to 2.6.17-10-generic (didn't notice I'd done this, it was part of a dist-upgrade) and now I can't boot.  The error is "Kernel Panic: Can't mount root filesystem.  I think this is because I just have the generic initrd, and my fstype is reiser.  How do I get reiserfs support in my initrd?
[05:32] <Thinkpad_Guru> CaptianMorgan Yea, I would format the Ubuntu partition from windows, then run the MBR immediately, before rebooting.  Ubuntu should then be good to reinstall
[05:33] <shatrat> xenex, thats flash, web video is pretty much all flash
[05:33] <xenex> shatrat: nope its a wmv
[05:33] <xenex> shatrat: http://media.flurl.com/media2/wmv/2007/3/12/FLURL-dot-com-236625.wmv
[05:33] <xenex> shatrat: it seems that totem player is ff's player
[05:33] <xenex> any idea on how to change it to mplayer?
[05:34] <Tonren> Why is my MySQL port closed?!
[05:34] <arrenlex> xenex: remove the totem-mozilla package and install mozilla-mplayer
[05:34] <K3nto> hey i have unallocated space. how do i add it to my ubuntu partition
[05:34] <rootnode> can't get my /home back to read-write mode. anyone who can help?
[05:35] <heydude> can somone help me?
[05:35] <xenex> arrenlex: when i try to mark it for removal, it says its going to remove ubuntu-desktop as well... :|
[05:35] <arrenlex> xenex: Yep. It's just a metapackage.
[05:35] <arrenlex> !ubuntu-desktop | xenex
[05:35] <ubotu> xenex: k/ed/x/ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading.
[05:36] <xenex> so i'm safe if i remove it?
[05:36] <Tonren> How do I restart MySQL with init.d?
[05:36] <jax> hi there...just wondering if it is normal for ubuntu periodically not able to load from start up or the screen freezes when loaded? thx
[05:36] <rootnode> /etc/init.d/mysql restart
[05:36] <arrenlex> xenex: Yes. It doesn't contain anything. It just depends on a bunch of other packages which ubuntu actually consists of.
[05:36] <Tonren> rootnode: thank you!!
[05:36] <kdeedk> How exactly does KDE programs work in Gnome, It'll also install KDE program binaries in order for it to work in gnome?
[05:36] <arrenlex> xenex: So if you want to install ubuntu, rather than installing the 500 packages you actually need, you only install ubuntu-desktop, which depends on all the rest. It can be safely removed.
[05:36] <xenex> arrenlex: what do you use as your video plugin?
[05:36] <arrenlex> xenex: mplayer
[05:36] <xenex> ok
[05:37] <heydude> How do I fix this error >>>>>the nvidia kernel module has the version 1.0-7184, but this X module has the version 1.0-9755 please make sure that the kernel module and all nvidia driver components have the same version
[05:37] <Dr_willis> kdeedk,  they are all just programs. that just use differnet libraries.. nothing else that special about kde or gnome apps.
[05:37] <arrenlex> kdeedk: You might need a few kde libraries for some applications, but what problems are there with running kde applications on gnome and vice versa? It's all Linux.
[05:37] <Dr_willis> kdeedk,  linux is about 'layers and legos' :) you got  layers of software on top of other layers..  kde andgnome are both similer layers  heh...
[05:37] <K3nto>  i have some unallocated space freed up. how do i add it to my windows partition
[05:37] <K3nto> linux patition
[05:37] <CaptainMorgan> Thinkpad_Guru, I have used the mbrfix.exe utility... anyway to confirm it's fixed without rebootign?
[05:37] <kdeedk> Dr_willis so basically if i install KDE apps on a KDE desktop enivronment it wouldn't need any libaries, but if i install KDE apps in my gnome desktop enivronments, it would need the KDE libaries and binaries?
[05:38] <kdeedk> Correct?
[05:38] <Xs142> Work damnit...
[05:38] <xenex> arrenlex: thank you very much :] 
[05:38] <foutrelis> !language | Xs142
[05:38] <ubotu> Xs142: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[05:38] <arrenlex> kdeedk: No. It still needs the same libraries. Just if you have a KDE desktop, they're already installed for other apps.
[05:38] <Thinkpad_Guru> CaptianMorgan Not to my knowlege, if it didn't return any errors, you should be good to go
[05:38] <heydude> hello can someone help?
[05:38] <Xs142> "Work darn you silly yarn!"
[05:39] <hendaus__> can any helpder how to get nokia suite for cell 6230
[05:39] <Dr_willis> kdeedk,  if you do a 'sudo apt-get install k3b' it 'should' install the needed kde libs and support files as well.
[05:39] <CaptainMorgan> Thinkpad_Guru, cool, thanks.. great utility :) (so far..)
[05:39] <patrialt> i updated my ubuntu 6.10 and now on the boot selection screen, i have both linux kernels displaying, how can i remove the ones that i dont want displayed?
[05:39] <Thinkpad_Guru> CaptianMorgan NP :)
[05:39] <foutrelis> Xs142: My English are pretty bad so I cannot understand you. :)
[05:39] <CaptainMorgan> patrialt, /etc/menu.lst
[05:39] <CaptainMorgan> err..
[05:39] <Dr_willis> patrialt,  it may be safest to just leave the extra as a backup.
[05:39] <foutrelis> *is :\
[05:39] <patrialt> thank you capt. mo
[05:39] <tonyyarusso> patrialt: a) uninstall them, if you don't want them on the system at all, b) comment them out from /boot/grub/menu.lst
[05:39] <CaptainMorgan> .. /boot/grub/menu.lst
[05:39] <CaptainMorgan> patrialt,
[05:39] <dimas> hello

[05:40] <arrenlex> xenex: I advise you to make your settings look like this: http://68.148.168.84:8001/screenshots/28968.png
[05:40] <kdeedk> Dr_willis Gotcha, Thanks!
[05:40] <arrenlex> xenex: Solves some compatibility problems you might run into later.
[05:40] <kdeedk> arrenlex Thanks!
[05:40] <patrialt> thank you
[05:40] <Sonic_13> wow
[05:40] <arrenlex> xenex: (don't change "save to location", though)

[05:41] <heydude> ...
[05:41] <tom47> heydude what is yr question?
[05:41] <Sonic_13> is there no gui for the lamp configuration?
[05:41] <foutrelis> heydude: Hmm I had the same issue befora
[05:41] <foutrelis> *re
[05:41] <ahave_> K3nto, i get the initial menu, but reboots when i select Start or CD check
[05:41] <foutrelis> Sonic_13: No :)
[05:41] <brophat> can someone suggest a compatible ethernet card?
[05:41] <Xs142> foutrelis: You can darn with a yarn, it's a wordplay joke based on 'damn' being refered to as 'darn' in the more friendly way.. Sorry about that :P
[05:41] <CaptainMorgan> Sonic_13, not taht I saw
[05:41] <heydude> im trying to install latest nvidia drivers and now x crashees on startup
[05:41] <Xs142> Anyways, anyone have any other suggestions on this kernel source heck?
[05:41] <Sonic_13> i should have realized that before i set up lamp and got myself totally lost
[05:41] <heydude> here is my error
[05:41] <K3nto> ahave_: im not sure what to tell you sry
[05:42] <heydude> the nvidia kernel module has the version 1.0-7184, but this X module has the version 1.0-9755 please make sure that the kernel module and all nvidia driver components have the same version
[05:42] <whtvrrob> stonenote, i think i may have found the problem with vmware server
[05:42] <kdeedk> heydude configure your xserver.
[05:42] <kdeedk> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg. (iirc)
[05:42] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, what's that?
[05:42] <xenex> arrenlex: why do you have divx support off?
[05:42] <Tonren> Why would I be unable to connect to a mysql server on an ubuntu server that I'm running?
[05:42] <heydude> i already have
[05:42] <ahave_> K3nto, could there be a reason why it would not work on this particular PC?
[05:42] <foutrelis> heydude: Did you install the nvidia driver from nvidia.com?
[05:42] <Tonren> The port is open and forwarded
[05:42] <whtvrrob> stonenote, it's not finding a suitable vmmon module for running kernel
[05:42] <heydude> yes
[05:42] <heydude> 9755
[05:42] <foutrelis> heydude: Hmmm. give my a second
[05:42] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, ok. that means it will try to compile one
[05:42] <ahave_> K3nto, bc the same CD worked on this PC
[05:42] <heydude> thank you
[05:43] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, you have gcc and build-essentials installed?
[05:43] <Sonic_13> anyone have a guide for LAMP?
[05:43] <Tonren> telnet localhost 12345 (my mysql port) works, but from a remote computer, telnet myserver.net 12345 doesn't work.
[05:43] <K3nto> ahave_: perhaps. ty checking your bios settings...?

[05:44] <ahave_> K3nto, i wouldnt not really know what i would be looking for..
[05:44] <Tonren> Arrgh!  ShieldsUP now says the port is CLOSED ever since I turned on the MySQL server!
[05:44] <arrenlex> xenex: Oh, that was part of the defautl settings... never ran into any movie I couldn't play; you can enable it if you feel safer.
[05:44] <foutrelis> heydude: First do: sudo apt-get remove nvidia-kernel-common

[05:45] <arrenlex> ubuntu: There you go. :)
[05:45] <ubuntu> arrenlex yes
[05:45] <Tonren> Agrajag: Besides, it's on a non-standard port
[05:45] <Tonren> Agrajag: Now, why the hell ain't it working?
[05:45] <arrenlex> ubuntu: Next time, please investigate the bot in a private message.
[05:45] <Agrajag> Tonren: because it's most likely firewalled off

[05:45] <ExxonValdeez> i am having some response troubles with my keyboard and mouse. does anyone have any suggestions? the mouse and keyboard freeze for a sec or two and sometimes the keyboard repeats letters
[05:45] <ubuntu> arrenlex: yes
[05:45] <StoneNote> Xs142, first I'd make sure there is a /lib/modules/2.6.17-11-386/build (open konqueror and make sure it's there) if it is, did you going into the file "config" in that directory and add /lib/modules/2.6.17-11-386/build  to the line that says KERNEL_SOURCE ?
[05:45] <Tonren> Agrajag: I thought iptables didn't automatically firewall any ports
[05:46] <arrenlex> ubuntu: Pf. Good luck.
[05:46] <Sonic_13> if I configured ubuntu in the LAMP configuration, is there anyway to get a GUI?
[05:46] <Agrajag> Tonren: are you behind NAT?
[05:46] <Tonren> Agrajag: Also, it was open when I ran apache2 on 12345, but now that mysqld is on 12345 it's closed.
[05:46] <ubuntu> arrenlex: thanks
[05:46] <Tonren> Agrajag: Yes, but 12345 is forwarded, and I have verified that it worked with apache2
[05:46] <Xs142> StoneNote: konqueror...?

[05:46] <kalorin> so does anyone know why fonts are so ungraceful under X?
[05:47] <Tonren> Agrajag: Ooh!  It won't even respond to the port if you don't configure it to accept connections from the querying IP address?
[05:47] <tonyyarusso> Agrajag: 'sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop' will get you everything that comes in a desktop installation
[05:47] <kalorin> I mean like monospace 9pt is 1 pixel wide, 10px is basically bold
[05:47] <StoneNote> Xs142, open a terminal and sudo -i and then cd /lib/modules/2.6.17-11-386/build  and see if it gives you an error

[05:47] <whtvrrob> stonenote, it aborted the install
[05:47] <Agrajag> Tonren: I think so
[05:47] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, what error?
[05:47] <tonyyarusso> Agrajag: ..hold on, I probably misread :S
[05:47] <kalorin> of all the things that I miss about windows (which is a pretty small list, font support is clearly better )
[05:47] <whtvrrob> stonenote, it had a rather long error message
[05:47] <foutrelis> heydude: replace NVIA*** with the actual nvidia installer
[05:47] <arrenlex> kdeedk: what?! XD I've never heard of anything like that in five years using kde. Are you misreading "khexedit"?
[05:47] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, that's what pastebin is for
[05:47] <ubuntu> arrenlex: hmmm bad the image is in mdf
[05:48] <pajama> hi, I'm trying to install Edgy into a Thinkpad X31... I managed to boot the installer using the netboot images configured in Grub... but I want to use my CD-ROM as the source of packages for installation... can this be done?
[05:48] <tonyyarusso> Sonic_13: That was at you, oops.  ^^^
[05:48] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, pastebin.us
[05:48] <ubuntu> arrenlex: how can i mount it.
[05:48] <Sonic_13> ?
[05:48] <arrenlex> ubuntu: No idea. Google, I guess.
[05:48] <foutrelis> heydude: And to finish off, sh NVI** to install it again. Then reboot :)
[05:48] <Sonic_13> oh this -->: 'sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop' will get you everything that comes in a desktop installation
[05:48] <Xs142> StoneNote: It does give me an error yes
[05:48] <pajama> I've tried doing a softlink into /var/www on another machine, but it doesn't work
[05:48] <ubuntu> arrenlex: ok
[05:49] <kdeedk> arrenlex Ahh, my bad .. KRegEdit is a utility that helps you view Windows Registry from Linux =)
[05:49] <whtvrrob> stonenote, it's on there, posted by whtvrrob
[05:49] <pajama> do I have to do something else to make the installer believe the CD-ROM is a "mirror" using an Apache?
[05:49] <ExxonValdeez>  i am having some response troubles with my keyboard and mouse. does anyone have any suggestions? the mouse and keyboard freeze for a sec or two and sometimes the keyboard repeats letters
[05:49] <heydude> foutrelis, there were errors during rocess, but the uninstall is now complete
[05:49] <tonyyarusso> pajama: The alternate CD can be used as a source, but not the desktop, afaik
[05:49] <StoneNote> Xs142, cd /lib/modules and the ls and see if 2.6.17-11-386 in in the list
[05:49] <moeru> hmm..
[05:49] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, you need to give me the url
[05:49] <pajama> tonyyarusso: thanks! great answer... let me try
[05:49] <tonyyarusso> pajama: apt-cdrom add is the way to do it
[05:49] <foutrelis> heydude: You may want to reboot before install it again. I am not sure.
[05:49] <Tonren> Agrajag: That's hardcore
[05:49] <heydude> foutrelis, ok isee it i had to catch up
[05:49] <StoneNote> Xs142, cd /lib/modules and then ls and see if 2.6.17-11-386 in in the list
[05:50] <arrenlex> kdeedk: Oh, okay.

[05:50] <Agrajag> Tonren: well, I'm not 100% on that, I don't use mysql for much of anything
[05:50] <jfalvarez> how to upgrade from 2.4.x kernel to 2.6.x using apt ?
[05:50] <Agrajag> Tonren: but if I were you, I'd check out its config file
[05:51] <StoneNote> Xs142, cd /lib/modules/2.6.17-11-386 and then ls and see if build is in the list
[05:51] <tonyyarusso> pajama: Some installers have custom options...I'm not sure.  So you have a netboot ultra-minimal thing, but instead of a network, want to use the CD?  Why not just use the CD in the first place?
[05:51] <kdeedk> arrenlex lol
[05:51] <viper> help
[05:51] <threeonefour_> i am haveing problems of changing the permissions of a file
[05:51] <foutrelis> !ask | viper
[05:51] <ubotu> viper: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:51] <viper> i think i just messed up my myth tv bad
[05:51] <grte> Does anyone know why an NFS tranfser over a local network might max out at 15 KB/s?
[05:52] <Xs142> StoneNote: It's not there, no.
[05:52] <viper> i typed sudo chmod 666 /etc/home/viper/.mythtv
[05:52] <rootnode> damn!
[05:52] <pajama> tonyyarusso: this Thinkpad X31 does not have a CD or a floppy
[05:52] <viper> how do I undo that
[05:52] <ubuntu> dev/loop0: No such file or directory
[05:52] <ubuntu> arrenlex:  dev/loop0: No such file or directory
[05:52] <Agrajag> viper: First, build a time machine.
[05:52] <kdeedk> grte The sender and receiver computer NIC was have same NIC Speed (ex. 100Mbps)
[05:52] <tonyyarusso> pajama: So the CD you want to use as the source - it's connected how?
[05:52] <viper> seriously
[05:52] <viper> how do i fix it
[05:52] <Agrajag> viper: seriously.
[05:52] <grte> kdeedk: Yeah, this one is 100Mbps
[05:52] <rootnode> can't remount my /home partition....some who can help me?
[05:52] <Agrajag> viper: you don't.
[05:52] <pajama> tonyyarusso: another machine has it loop mounted, under an Apache
[05:52] <rootnode> someone*
[05:53] <grte> And so is the one on my local machine.
[05:53] <viper> I just spent 2 weeks configuring it
[05:53] <tonyyarusso> pajama: Gotcha.
[05:53] <arrenlex> ubuntu: What was the command you ran?
[05:53] <grte> So you'd think I could do better.
[05:53] <viper> 4 hours getting my remote control working
[05:53] <Agrajag> viper: you have no backups?
[05:53] <viper> there has to be an easy fix
[05:53] <kdeedk> grte How is it connected? Wired or Wireless?
[05:53] <grte> Wired.
[05:53] <tonyyarusso> pajama: Tell me about a) the directory structure of the CD-ROM, b) how/where exactly it's mounted, c) I'm assuming you have the IP of the other machine, etc.
[05:53] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, are you running a custom kernal? it found /lib/modules/2.6.17-11-generic/build/include/ but says There is probably a slight difference in the kernel configuration between the set of C header files you specified and your running kernel.  You may want to rebuild a kernel based on that directory, or specify another directory.
[05:53] <foutrelis> viper: Noone knows what the permissions were before you changed them to 666. Therefore there is no fix
[05:53] <viper> Could not open settings file /home/viper/.mythtv/mysql.txt for writing
[05:54] <viper> s what mythtv is telling me
[05:54] <kdeedk> grte connected directly to each other, or via a central device such as hub, switch, router?
[05:54] <arrenlex> Hehe... 666 are the coolest permissions ever.
[05:54] <grte> Connected via a router.
[05:54] <StoneNote> Xs142, now I find that really odd. give me a second to look something up
[05:54] <foutrelis> viper: Try giving it 755
[05:54] <whtvrrob> stonenote, i believe i may be, not sure actually, i can change it to a specific kernel if that'd be better
[05:54] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, if you want this to compile, that might be a good idea
[05:55] <whtvrrob> stonenote, ok this is gonna sound stupid, but how would i do that
[05:55] <moeru> where could I mount an iso? cdrom?
[05:55] <viper> THANK YOU
[05:55] <viper> FIXED
[05:55] <viper> wew
[05:55] <arrenlex> !iso | moeru
[05:55] <ubotu> moeru: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <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.
[05:55] <Dr_willis> moeru,  where? about anywhere. /media/iso is a good spot
[05:55] <foutrelis> Glad to know :)
[05:55] <viper> bows
[05:55] <moeru> That'll work
[05:56] <moeru> I keep getting iso does not exist
[05:56] <viper> where does myth tv store all its mp3s? i wanna add a bunch
[05:56] <beg1689> anyone here know how i can start nautilus without spawning the desktop
[05:56] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, for once, you gotta reboot and when grub comes up, pick the 2.6.17-11-generic kernel and not any special one you've compiled
[05:56] <arrenlex> moeru: Counterintuitively, you need to create the folder before you can use it. =P
[05:57] <ahave_> is there a reason why a BIOS would not allow booting from a liveCD?
[05:57] <beg1689> cause its old
[05:57] <arrenlex> !who | beg1689
[05:57] <ubotu> beg1689: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)
[05:57] <threeonefour1> sorry i got disconnected
[05:57] <whtvrrob> stonenote, ok then, i'm not running anything special, just the standard 2.6.17-11-generic, since i don't have another one listed at grub
[05:57] <ahave_> beg1689, what are the requirements?
[05:57] <Thinkpad_Guru> ahave_ if the bios isn't set for the CD-rom as your first boot device, it wont boot
[05:58] <moeru> ...I feel dumb now =p
[05:58] <Minoru> ahave, you might need to allow booting from a cd.
[05:58] <beg1689> ahave_: there should be an option in your BIOS that determines the boot order
[05:58] <ahave_> Thinkpad_Guru, i can boot the CD, just not run a liveCD
[05:58] <ahave_> beg1689, Thinkpad_Guru: i understand all that
[05:58] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, odd.
[05:58] <beg1689> oh
[05:58] <musashiden> hello everyone
[05:58] <beg1689> what seems to be the problem then?
[05:58] <arrenlex> !hi | musashiden
[05:58] <ubotu> musashiden: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:58] <ahave_> beg1689, Thinkpad_Guru: my problem is when the cd is trying to run
[05:58] <Thinkpad_Guru> ahave_  maybe it was a bad burn, try buring the iso image on brand name media at 2x or 4x
[05:58] <Tonren> Agrajag: Ugh... it's still not working with me.
[05:58] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, go to #vmware and show them that pastebin. they might have a better idea
[05:58] <foutrelis> heydude: How is everything going with you problem?
[05:58] <musashiden> i was wondering, how do i add a ntfs disk to my new ubuntu installation? i just want to retrieve some files from it.
[05:58] <tonyyarusso> pajama: still alive?
[05:59] <Thinkpad_Guru> ahave_  its a common issue for me personally
[05:59] <StoneNote> whtvrrob, I'm stumped
[05:59] <pajama> tonyyarusso: it is mounted in /var/www/iso as a soft link
[05:59] <ahave_> Thinkpad_Guru, i have tried 2 diff distros both work on my laptop and neither on this older pc
[05:59] <threeonefour1> as i was saying i cannot change the permisitions of a folder    i tried su   chmod -R 777 new
[05:59] <arrenlex> !ntfs > musashiden
[05:59] <foutrelis> threeonefour1: try sudo. And be careful with that -R
[05:59] <arrenlex> threeonefour1: You mean, sudo chmod -R 777 new
[06:00] <Thinkpad_Guru> ahave_  this may sound dumb (personal experience talking :)  ) but is the cd-rom in working order?
[06:00] <rootnode> PROBLEM: suddenly my /home was in read-only mode. rebooting didn't help and remounting it with "mount -o remount,rw /home" fails. ideas anyone?
[06:00] <tom47> beg1689 mc is quite handy instead of nautilus in cli
[06:00] <heydude> foutrelis, just restarted and it worked like a charm
[06:00] <fog_proxy> Hi all. I did 'insmod xxx' in ubuntu, and after that I reboot the PC, the module xxx has auto added to the system. Which file configed this? How can I remove it from auto insmod?
[06:00] <heydude> thank you
[06:00] <ahave_> Thinkpad_Guru, as far as i know it is
[06:00] <Dr_willis> mc is darn handy :)
[06:00] <foutrelis> heydude: Nice :) You 're welcome.
[06:00] <tonyyarusso> pajama: To what, the root of the CD?  Assuming ubuntu/ is a folder at the root level of the CD-ROM, you need deb http://the.ip.addy/iso/ubuntu release sections as your apt line
[06:00] <heydude> :)
[06:00] <pajama> tonyyarusso: sudo mount ~/downloads/ubuntu-6.10-alternate-i386.iso /media/iso -t iso9660 -o loop
[06:00] <ahave_> Thinkpad_Guru, i mean.. it boots and displays a liveCD menu. just causes a reboot when i try to install
[06:00] <arrenlex> pajama: Don't need that -t, it's auto detected.
[06:00] <Thinkpad_Guru> ahave_  how old are we talking about? like pentium 166 kindof old, or something within the last 4 years or so?
[06:01] <threeonefour1> arrenlex, no i mean i  su    then i chmod
[06:01] <pajama> tonyyarusso: I dont have an "apt line"... I'm booting the netboot installer using Grub
[06:01] <fog_proxy> any idea?
[06:01] <tonyyarusso> pajama: /media/iso == /var/www/iso?
[06:01] <ahave_> Thinkpad_Guru, post 4year old pc. socket 7 hardware
[06:01] <tonyyarusso> pajama: Well, however the netboot one prompts for it
[06:01] <pajama> tonyyarusso: yeah: ln -s /media/iso /var/www/iso
[06:01] <ahave_> Thinkpad_Guru, amd-k6
[06:01] <fog_proxy> How to remove a module from auto load when system boot?
[06:01] <shatrat> ahave_, the liveCD doesnt work on all hardware.  you might try safe settings and stuff like pci=noacpi and such, but if it gives you trouble it might just be best to download the alternate installer.
[06:01] <Sonic_13> how do i set up apache to host a web page?
[06:01] <Thinkpad_Guru> ahave_  there really is not reason why it shouldn't work.  Maybe try flashing the bios with the newest firmware?
[06:01] <pajama> tonyyarusso: in the installer I put the IP address of the Apache server and the subdirectory, which is iso
[06:01] <tonyyarusso> Sonic_13: sudo aptitude install apache2
[06:02] <beg1689> Sonic_13: /join #apache
[06:02] <Thinkpad_Guru> ahave_  Or set the bios to failsafe defaults.
[06:02] <tonyyarusso> pajama: Put iso/ubuntu instead of just iso
[06:02] <pajama> tonyyarusso: but then the installer complaints: "The installer failed to download a file from the mirror... "
[06:02] <pajama> tonyyarusso: I can surf the CD using Firefox, so it is mounted and you can see it in Apache
[06:03] <tonyyarusso> pajama: Good, should just be the folder then
[06:03] <beg1689> Sonic_13: read the docs, you probably dont have to do anthing, just stick your index.html in the right spot, or change its Root to where your web files are
[06:03] <threeonefour1> how do i change the permistions of a folder
[06:03] <beg1689> chmod
[06:03] <bimberi> fog_proxy: add it to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[06:03] <Xs142> StoneNote: Come up with anything?
[06:03] <Thinkpad_Guru> threeonefour1 sudo chmod <permissions>
[06:03] <pajama> tonyyarusso: it is another problem, because when I put something like "/ubuntubadmount" it complaints with a red screen
[06:03] <StoneNote> Xs142, nope.  and I'm falling asleep in my chair so I need to hit the hay
[06:04] <threeonefour1> big1689, nope didn't work
[06:04] <fog_proxy> bimberi: thanks. can I just remove it from where it added?
[06:04] <Xs142> StoneNote: oh ok, thanks for trying atleast :)
[06:04] <tonyyarusso> pajama: When browsing the CD, do you see folders like iso/ubuntu/dists ?
[06:04] <pajama> tonyyarusso: but when I put /iso it gives me this strange error... also, the /var/log/apache2/access.log shows it gets (200) the Release file correctly
[06:04] <fog_proxy> bimberi: the module is not loaded before, just after I did insmod once
[06:04] <pajama> tonyyarusso: yes I see those folders
[06:04] <fog_proxy> bimberi: I think after I did that command, ubuntu auto add the load policy of it to somewhere
[06:05] <threeonefour1> beg1689, nope didn't work
[06:05] <tonyyarusso> pajama: does it say which file it can't get?
[06:05] <fog_proxy> bimberi: I noticed in /etc/modprobe.d/ a new file has created
[06:05] <fog_proxy> bimberi: can I just remove it?
[06:05] <pajama> tonyyarusso: nope
[06:05] <pajama> tonyyarusso: the md5 sum is correct
[06:05] <tonyyarusso> pajama: Are you specifying sections when you do this?  Your CD only has main and restricted, so any attempts at universe or multiverse will fail
[06:06] <pajama> tonyyarusso: I tried what you said but using the alternate install iso also gives me the same error
[06:06] <pajama> tonyyarusso: I have not get to that part yet
[06:06] <duck_> how do i enable universe?
[06:06] <ahave_> Thinkpad_Guru, how does one go about updating the bios? i have never done so
[06:06] <pajama> tonyyarusso: maybe is the netboot image the one failing
[06:06] <ahave_> Thinkpad_Guru, i have the current bios #, but how do i find updates for it?
[06:07] <tonyyarusso> pajama: Could be.  You tried the alternate with iso/ubuntu as your subdir, and that failed?
[06:07] <tonyyarusso> hmm
[06:07] <kalorin> smokin!
[06:07] <ubuntu> !iso
[06:07] <ubotu> To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <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.
[06:07] <pajama> tonyyarusso: yes, it failed just the same
[06:07] <shatrat> ahave_, I think flashing the bios might be a little extreme.  if the CD integrity check is ok then I would try the alternative installer.
[06:07] <Thinkpad_Guru> ahave_ that might be a challenge.  Is it an oem PC? or a custom build one?  If it is like an HP or something you can find bios flashes from their website, or else, the manufactureer of the motherboard
[06:08] <Minoru> Problem: Ok, I have been trying to get my wide screen monitor(asp;16:10) to run properly. Because there isn't a resolution setting sutible for my monitor, I downloaded the program 914resolution. It installed fine and ran fine, but only once. Now, the Terminal wont even acknowledge that 914 is installed. I really need to be able to use the force resolution function, but I can't. Does anyone know what could be the problem?
[06:08] <tonyyarusso> pajama: I'd probably have to read up on this netboot thing more to get a sense of what's going on, but meanwhile I need to get to bed.  Good luck, or I'll see you another day?
[06:08] <ksnipa> was wondering if anyone knew about any good open source command line diciontary, word searcher, spell checker type programs
[06:08] <Thinkpad_Guru> sharat, you may be right, although it has worked for me in the past.
[06:08] <ksnipa> i came across writers work bench but it doesnt seem to be open source
[06:08] <pajama> tonyyarusso: thanks a lot bye
[06:08] <tom47> duck_ the easiest way is probably System>Administration>Software Sources
[06:08] <ahave_> shatrat, trying to run a CD check causes a reboot
[06:08] <Thinkpad_Guru> ahave_ have you tried the text install??
[06:09] <ahave_> Thinkpad_Guru, no. is that a seperate .iso?
[06:09] <Thinkpad_Guru> no
[06:09] <shatrat> ahave_, well...what speed did you burn the CD at, maybe it is corrupt? although I dont think corruption would cause a reboot.
[06:09] <Xeper> Does anyone else here run the ATI SB600 chipset?
[06:10] <Minoru> Xeper: No, why?
[06:10] <Thinkpad_Guru> shatrat he said the cd works on his other machines...I guess he can't even get the CD to read
[06:10] <Dralid> How do check free disk space on Edgy Eft? Either through terminal or graphical tool?
[06:10] <Xeper> Minoru: Because I need help getting it to work...
[06:11] <Minoru> Xeper: Whats wrong? Is it just not working?
[06:11] <Xeper> Minoru: Yes.
[06:11] <userund> !op
[06:11] <ubotu> Help! Mez, LjL, elkbuntu, imbrandon, DBO, gnomefreak, Hobbsee, rob, ompaul, Madpilot, Burgundavia, Seveas, CarlK, crimsun, ajmitch, tritium, Nalioth, thoreauputic, apokryphos, tonyyarusso, PriceChild or Amaranth
[06:11] <Xeper> Minoru: Apparently it wasn't supported until kernel 2.6.20, and even when I tried feisty it wasn't built into there either.
[06:11] <Madpilot> userund, it's just a netsplit, nothing the ops can do
[06:11] <userund> Madpilot, oh, ok.
[06:12] <userund> sorry then.
[06:12] <Madpilot> ubotu, netsplit | userund
[06:12] <ubotu> userund: netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[06:12] <Minoru> Xeper: I'm sorry, but, what chipset was that?
[06:12] <Xeper> Minoru: ATI SB600
[06:13] <Minoru> Ok, one second.
[06:14] <Dralid> How do check free disk space on Edgy Eft?
[06:14] <shatrat> Dralid, df -h
[06:14] <Anabelle> hi
[06:14] <shatrat> moo
[06:14] <ahave_> Thinkpad_Guru, can you link me to the text installer? i can only seem to find the liveCD version
[06:15] <Dralid> thank you, shatrat!
[06:15] <Anabelle> can i limit my internet connection speed to 5ks?
[06:15] <pyrotix> I unrar'd a file and now I cannot find it? omg. What do I do?
[06:15] <Tonren> Why won't mysqld accept connections on my Ubuntu Dapper server?
[06:15] <naught101> shatrat: does that work for / as well, considering other drives may be mounted under it?
[06:15] <kdeedk> Tonren search for it... find / -name NameOfTheFile
[06:15] <pyrotix> I mean: I unrar'd a file and now I cannot find it. omg. What do I do?
[06:15] <Tonren> kdeedk: mistell...?
[06:15] <kdeedk> Pyromancer search for it... find / -name NameOfTheFile
[06:16] <shatrat> naught101, it lists by partition
[06:16] <kdeedk> Tonren yup .. /me runs away .. sorry
[06:16] <Anabelle> Can i limit the speed of my internet connection using kubuntu?
[06:16] <moeru> Anyone recommend a good image viewer for looking at images across the network? (got a file server with a metric ton of wallpapers on it)
[06:16] <Thinkpad_Guru> ahave_ sorry i wasn't thinking, you need the cd to actually load to the point of the menu to select install to load from text install, I don't know what cd you have, I have the DVD which allows regular install, oem, and text instal
[06:16] <naught101> ah..
[06:17] <ubuntu> hey is someone try to install test drive in UBuntu
[06:18] <kdeedk> ubuntu be more specific.
[06:18] <Thinkpad_Guru> ahave_ you can't even get the cd to recognize right? One more thing, doing the GUI install requires considerable RAM, you might be interested with your old K7 unless it has around 512mb ram to go and get the OEM CD or full DVD anyway.
[06:18] <Anabelle> are my messages being read?
[06:18] <Anabelle> i feel like talking alone
[06:18] <ubuntu> kdeedk Test Drive is game for windows
[06:18] <Thinkpad_Guru> Anabelle you want to limit the speed?
[06:19] <ahave_> Thinkpad_Guru, i just have an option on the liveCD to install/start, start in safe graphics mode, check for CD defects, mem test, and boot from HD
[06:19] <Thinkpad_Guru> Anabelle please explain what you mean, why do you want to cap yourself?
[06:19] <ubuntu> and i ask if someone try to install this game  3gb.
[06:19] <ahave_> Thinkpad_Guru, CD will boot and recognize just fine. just reboots whenever i select one of the options
[06:19] <Anabelle> yes, i have an old laptop downloading stuff all the time, and it's eating up my bandwith, i use two other boxes
[06:19] <Anabelle> i just want to "cap" the laptop
[06:20] <kdeedk> ubuntu Thank you! :) .. you can cedega-transgaming .
[06:20] <kdeedk> !cedega | ubuntu
[06:20] <ubotu> ubuntu: cedega is a project based on WINE, aimed at running Windows games on Linux. For more info, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cedega
[06:20] <naught101> test drive? game?
[06:20] <Thinkpad_Guru> ahave_ ok ok I thought it was an actual bios issue. If the installer doesnt work, get the oem version which lets you install from a text installer.  Don't do the OEM install though
[06:21] <kdeedk> naught101 I think that was from Need For Speed, iirc
[06:21] <ubuntu> naugh101 yest test drive unlimited for pc
[06:21] <ahave_> Thinkpad_Guru, define OEM?
[06:21] <Thinkpad_Guru> Anabelle, can you limit the bandwidth with the program?
[06:21] <Minoru> Xeper: Sorry, I checked a few patch websites to see if they have something, but they didn't. :-/
[06:21] <ubuntu> yeyeyeye
[06:21] <Anabelle> i dont think so, the program is the konsole
[06:21] <Minoru> Xeper: I'm quite sorry.
[06:21] <ubuntu> kdeedk: cedea want to pay for the program
[06:22] <morla> hi, I build a 2.6.20, and lost the framebuffer. Already checked all options and googled for hours, I think I configured everything corrctly..
[06:22] <kdeedk> ubuntu you could try cedega-transgaming
[06:22] <shatrat> ahave_, here is a link http://ubuntu-releases.cs.umn.edu//6.10/ubuntu-6.10-alternate-i386.iso
[06:22] <Thinkpad_Guru> ahave _original equipment manufactered They make a cd for people specifically building PCs that install ubuntu.  I *believe* it has a text install option, which is probably what you will be needing.  I know my Full DVD has that option.
[06:22] <Xeper> Minoru: Damn... is there any idea of when something may be up?
[06:23] <ahave_> Thinkpad_Guru, shatrat: thanks
[06:23] <Xeper> Minoru: I appreciate you looking into that for me
[06:23] <ubuntu> kdeedk: from where i can try it
[06:23] <bimberi> fog_proxy: yes I think you can (just in case nobody else answered)
[06:23] <Anabelle> am i looking for an impossible?
[06:24] <Thinkpad_Guru> Anabelle I really havn't come across a program like that.  I'm sure they are out there though.   Are you behind a router? Can you confure the router to cap your bandwidth to your PC?
[06:24] <shatrat> Anabelle, well, if you cant limit the speed used by the program, you can use a traffic shaper to limit traffic, but im not familiar with them
[06:24] <Minoru> Xeper: Not sure. But something is bound to come up. I'd still ask around on the irc though.
[06:24] <Anabelle> im behind a router, but my ISP wont let me change the router's settings
[06:24] <shatrat> Anabelle, but if youre using bit torrent or something lots of clients will let you limit the bandwith up and down
[06:25] <fog_proxy> bimberi: OK. thanks, has done that :)
[06:25] <Anabelle> yes i know, but i want to limit the kubuntu dapper to edgy update
[06:25] <Thinkpad_Guru> Anabelle, your ISP has no control over your router. What kind of router is it? Linksys? Netgear?
[06:25] <lkthomas> anyone using hp printer in ubuntu ?
[06:25] <shatrat> Thinkpad_Guru, well, they might if its an ISP issued router.
[06:25] <Anabelle> HuaHwei, yes they have the password..
[06:26] <shatrat> lkthomas, I am
[06:26] <null_> I installed Madwifi, do I have to reboot, or can I restart a specific service or something?
[06:26] <Thinkpad_Guru> Anabelle, you mean modem?
[06:26] <lkthomas> shatrat, are you using hplip ?
[06:26] <Anabelle> it's an ADSL modem in Router Mode
[06:26] <shatrat> lkthomas, yes, although I dont mess with it much.
[06:26] <lkthomas> shatrat, we are using hplip too, I just wondering how could I send fax to that allinone printer
[06:27] <shatrat> lkthomas, I dont know anything about faxes. mine is a photosmart
[06:27] <lkthomas> hmm
[06:28] <Minoru> Oh, speaking or which, I need some help.. I have a monitor with an aspect ratio of 16:10(1440x900). I downloaded the program 914resolution to fix it. Things seemed to be going good, but then the program stopped working. I've reinstalled it many times, but that did not help. I don't get any error messages other than "914resolution no found." Does anyone know what the problem could be?
[06:28] <Thinkpad_Guru> Anabelle, hmm, yeah a traffic shaper would be a suggestion, although I havnt ever played with one.
[06:28] <shatrat> Minoru, I believe its named 915resolution
[06:28] <Checkka> if I execture a make install, does that move all the files that were compiled with 'make' to the proper directories?
[06:28] <Anabelle> is a traffic shaper a program?
[06:28] <Anabelle> can i find it in the repository?
[06:28] <shatrat> Anabelle, its a type of program, yes. I imagine there is something appropriate in the repos but I dont know anything about it.
[06:28] <genii> Anabelle: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2164210

[06:29] <ubuntu> kdeedk: from whre to download cedega
[06:29] <genii> Anabelle: What you want to do is there
[06:29] <beg1689> can someone tell me how to start nautilus without starting the desktop part of it? or if thats even possible?
[06:30] <Thinkpad_Guru> genii damn, I'm just going to shut up from now on :)
[06:30] <Minoru> Shatrat: .... ah... ^^;;;;; That it would be. (I can't believe I made a mistake like that.) They HAVE a 914resolution, but it's not what I have... Thank you SOO very much.
[06:30] <Anabelle> ill take a look thanx
[06:30] <shatrat> Minoru, im like an idiot savant with computers
[06:30] <genii> Thinkpad_Guru: LOL Nah don't do that :)
[06:30] <tues> question, ubuntu stop installing at 67%!
[06:30] <tues> what should i do?
[06:30] <shatrat> tues, first step: panic
[06:31] <tues> im at that point XD
[06:31] <shatrat> tues, using the LiveCD installer?
[06:31] <Thinkpad_Guru> genii never heard of a modem-router before though.. I guess some places/isp's do different things
[06:31] <tues> yes
[06:31] <shatrat> tues, are you still in it?
[06:31] <tues> talking on it right now this is a time based question
[06:31] <Anabelle> yes, they do different things
[06:31] <genii> Thinkpad_Guru: Theres a lot of them these days, SpeedStream from sympatico mostly
[06:32] <Anabelle> and here at least internet sucks compared to the resto of the world
[06:32] <Anabelle> lol
[06:32] <shatrat> tues, so youre on the liveCD with the installer stuck at 67%?  you could try killing it and starting over.  Unless youre in the middle of repartitioning or shrinking ntfs or something there shouldnt be any harm in that.
[06:32] <shatrat> tues, and if it keeps giving trouble, use the alternate installer.   the LiveCD is sometimes more trouble than it's worth.
[06:32] <Thinkpad_Guru> genii I just use a linksys modem with a Endian firewall/router on an old Celeron...
[06:32] <tues> no its not stuck yet it freezes at 67 and ive tries twice now
[06:33] <Anabelle> the install a modem wich acts as a routerm, only when it wants to, and when it's messed up the take up to 30 day to get to you and "reset" the modem :(
[06:33] <Thinkpad_Guru> Anabelle, huh where are you at?
[06:33] <tues> is there a big differance withthe alternat CD and this one?
[06:33] <genii> Thinkpad_Guru: You don't wanna know my setup ROFL
[06:33] <Anabelle> Bogota, Colombia
[06:33] <erateca> hi, i'm trying to install ubuntu in a dell notebook and am currently in the partitioner... my problem is that there appears a tiny fat16 partition and the other ntfs windows partition. No that I try to add a fat32 partition, an ext3 partition and a linux-swap partition, it tells me that I have a maximum of 4 logical partitions. How can I install these partitions?
[06:33] <Anabelle> my ISP is ETB, they suck
[06:34] <shatrat> Anabelle, well, at least you can drink good coffee while youre waiting for them to fix the connection.
[06:34] <Thinkpad_Guru> genii cmon? what is it a T1 and a rack of cisco routers and switches?
[06:34] <Anabelle> LOL!! im drinking coffee right now!
[06:34] <Thinkpad_Guru> Anabelle I mean geographically :)
[06:34] <shatrat> Anabelle, is there any way to get your own ruter and use the modem just as a modem?
[06:35] <Anabelle> yes i guess, but haven0t tried
[06:35] <Thinkpad_Guru> Anabelle, guess coffee would mean not in the US. hehe
[06:35] <shatrat> Anabelle, you could even set up one of your linux boxes as a router if it has enough ethernet cards or you have a switch.
[06:35] <Anabelle> I do have a switch
[06:36] <Anabelle> with 4 PCs and the Modem/router plugged in
[06:36] <tues> is the alternat cd the 6.06 cd?
[06:36] <genii> Thinkpad_Guru: At home where I am right now , no :) I have 2 ADSL lines, one is on a Gnet modem which is cascaded to 3 4port switches. The other line is on a speed stream6520 which does the wifi and is cascaded to 2 16 port switches
[06:37] <genii> Thinkpad_Guru: At work we have 2 PRI lines and an oc3
[06:37] <Anabelle> tues: no, there is an alternate CD for each version of Ubuntu, 6.06 has one and 6.10 has another one
[06:37] <tues> k how do i find the 6.10 cd?
[06:37] <tues> alternate
[06:37] <Thinkpad_Guru> genii wow, uh wow, I have a 16 port switch, but is only using 3 ports...hehe See I'm cool too :)
[06:38] <Anabelle> im not cool then? im from the third world!!! cooler than anyone
[06:38] <Thinkpad_Guru> genni I have crappy government T1 at work...
[06:38] <shatrat> tues,  http://ubuntu-releases.cs.umn.edu//6.10/ubuntu-6.10-alternate-i386.iso
[06:38] <genii> Thinkpad_Guru: I have a couple clusters here, thats why all the switches
[06:38] <shatrat> tues, or even better look for the torrent, then you dont have to worry about it being corrupt
[06:38] <genii> Anabelle :)
[06:39] <Thinkpad_Guru> genii cool, you render graphics, or are they servers?
[06:39] <Anabelle> hey what's that with getting the torrent so it wont be corrupt :| ?
[06:39] <Thinkpad_Guru> genii I didn't really mean that server part..  That didn't come out right..
[06:40] <Anabelle> i installed 6.06 from an original (shipit) CD because all the 6.10 Cds i downloaded said to be corrupt
[06:40] <Anabelle> even the alternates
[06:40] <genii> Thinkpad_Guru: Right now I have 1 install cluster. They all pxe boot and install Dapper headless. this is for my work, we are distributing them. My other cluster is just something I am playing around with. Thinking about a rendering farm
[06:40] <shatrat> Anabelle, bit torrent automatically checksums the completed file and checks for corruption.  HTTP has some error detection b/c of TCP but its more likely to be corrupt than bit torrent
[06:41] <Thinkpad_Guru> Anabelle, you may be burning them too fast try a slow speed like 4x
[06:41] <Anabelle> i thought it was my laptop's drive
[06:41] <shatrat> Anabelle, although as tp_g said it might be that you were burning too fast, I burn at 2x always
[06:41] <Anabelle> i did try burning at 4x
[06:41] <Thinkpad_Guru> genii, neat.  I wish I knew more about clustering, and had some money for the hardware.
[06:42] <Anabelle> and didn't work either so i installed 6.06 and now im upgrading to 6.10 and eating up my bandwith so i want to limit the update LOL
[06:42] <Anabelle> i guess i should just sleep and wait
[06:43] <genii> Anabelle did you install the trickle program? It was on the link I gave
[06:43] <Anabelle> yes i saw it, but i can't install anything while upgrading... can i?
[06:43] <cables> Hey does anyone know what version of AbiWord supports OpenDocument?

[06:44] <moeru> isn't it /name\ of \directory
[06:44] <Anabelle> cables: there was no answer son't worry
[06:44] <beg1689> is it possible to start nautilus without creating the desktop
[06:44] <deepbluegene> hi. i just changing my ubuntu 6.10's settings and activated screensaver 'endgame' it iwas working fine in preview mode but when it becomes active after set time of 1 min it was just a black screen instead of screensaver.i have nvidia card and beryl is installed and working fine.
[06:44] <cables> Anabelle, :)
[06:44] <genii> Anabelle: Ah, OK. No, the apt-get will be locked up.
[06:44] <shatrat> moeru, or you could just type the first bit and use Tab to copmlete
[06:45] <moeru> Ah ha.God bless autocomplete
[06:45] <Anabelle> yes i know... i thought i coul find like a slider to limit conection speed on the system settings or something...
[06:45] <Anabelle> i am sometimes to optimistic with kubuntu
[06:46] <shatrat> Anabelle, it's not something most people want to do.  When im downloading everybody else just has to deal with it.
[06:46] <adjioev> I use some gedit or eclipse and sometimes if I want to select text i use shift- arrow up/down. Usually it works but sometimes instead of selecting it prints "2" or "8". how do i switch this mode off?
[06:46] <Anabelle> LOL right but when im downloading I have to deal with it :@

[06:52] <rootnode> i just tried to upgrade from dapper to feisty alpha 5
[06:52] <rootnode> but now i run into more than 1 dependency problem
[06:52] <Madpilot> rootnode, did you upgrade to Edgy first, from Dapper?
[06:52] <Flannel> rootnode: Upgrading from dapper to feisty isn't supported.  You should have gone through edgy first.
[06:52] <rootnode> Madpilot: no
[06:52] <odix> whats the difference between dapper & edgy ?
[06:52] <Flannel> odix: They're just different versions.  In that case, about four months ;)
[06:53] <Madpilot> rootnode, not good. Upgrades have to be done in order
[06:53] <odix> how do i find out mine ?
[06:53] <rootnode> i asked for that here a few hours ago and i was suggested to directly upgrade to feisty
[06:53] <rootnode> nah, never mind...

[06:54] <odix> edgy...is this the newest ?
[06:54] <Flannel> odix: most recent stable, yes.
[06:55] <odix> flannel do you know how to umount the ntfs filesystem ?
[06:55] <zack> hey, i have apache working with php and mysql quite fine at the moment, but I want to know if installing lighttpd will screw it up?
[06:55] <Flannel> odix: just like normal.  umount
[06:55] <apallo> is there an IRC client i can use in gnome that isn't xchat or gaim?
[06:55] <odix> gives me fstab errors
[06:55] <zack> i'm installing Ruby on Rails and the guide I'm using is saying to use lighttpd
[06:55] <odix> gIRC?
[06:56] <mistone> zack: word
[06:56] <kalorin> so does anyone run a machine with 2 disks in it?
[06:56] <kalorin> if so how are you using the 2nd disk, as a mirror, or spanning?
[06:56] <bohsain> whats the module/driver for this sound card: Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller
[06:56] <mistone> kalorin:  HD's?
[06:56] <tag_> well
[06:56] <kalorin> or just a lazy mirrors where you sync them every day or so
[06:56] <mistone> I run a machine with two harddirves
[06:56] <zack> apallo: chatzilla is a pretty good IRC addon for firefox
[06:56] <zack> mistone:?
[06:56] <tag_> Ruby on Rails and lighttpd are like amazingly popular for not much reason, but I can say that it's much better than the previous trend of PHP and Apache
[06:56] <apallo> i want a standalone client, but gui
[06:57] <kalorin> what I'd really like to do is have these two disks sync every day or so at some point so that I have a fairly recent backup but also have the ability to get stuff back if I nuke it
[06:57] <kalorin> sort of a lazy mirror
[06:57] <kalorin> trying to figure out how to do it in such a way as that the other disk is actually bootable as well if there's a harddisk failure on the primary
[06:57] <zack> @tag: so does it matter if i have apache and lighttpd running at once? i kinda want to be able to work with both at once, if rails uses lighttpd exclusively
[06:57] <kalorin> they're the same manufacturer and model
[06:57] <kalorin> I guess I could just do a DD on them
[06:57] <lisapc> i have an inbuilt webcam.  can I get it to work in Edgy?
[06:57] <kalorin> but they're 400gb
[06:57] <Flannel> zack: as long as they're listening on different ports, you should be able to run them both, sure.
[06:58] <kalorin> perhaps a dd to start and then rsync's after that?
[06:58] <zack> Flannel: awesome, ta
[06:58] <odix> uh-oh..
[06:58] <odix> i unmounted my partition and made it smaller
[06:58] <odix> now i cant unmount my linux partition, so how do i add more space to that ?
[06:59] <carlfk3> toshiba laptop, built in wifi, lspcmica says orinoco_cs - edgy and feisty both show it in iwconfig, but it wont 'link' to the open AP - someone got a clue fo rme?
[06:59] <Flannel> odix: er, did you "umount" by itself?
[06:59] <odix> sudo umount /dev/hda1
[07:00] <kalorin> odix, if you're running it live, you might have some problems with that
[07:00] <kalorin> ack 2am

[07:04] <VeganChick> hi guys. i just deleted my entire top panel and i can't find some of the menu options...
[07:04] <r4nge> major stupidness, i accidently removed +x from the "others" group for sudo and now i cant sudo chmod it back
[07:04] <r4nge> any chance of me chmoding it back to +x
[07:05] <Cryoniq> Is it like they say, all bad things happen in the morning :)
[07:05] <Madpilot> VeganChick, right-click on your surviving panel, select New Panel, then all the panel widgets are available thru Add to Panel
[07:05] <VeganChick> Madpilot, I found all of those, but I'm missing the 'applications' 'places' and 'system' menus
[07:06] <Cryoniq> If I would like to partition some space on a harddrive, and then mount it to a dir under root, how do I manage it to mount at boot?
[07:06] <Madpilot> VeganChick, I think it's the Menu Bar widget
[07:06] <Madpilot> all three menus are one widget
[07:06] <gsxr600> hello everybody
[07:06] <Cryoniq> I know there is a file somewhere I can edit to add mount commands etc that run at boot, but it was a long time since I even looked that way
[07:07] <VeganChick> Madpilot, thanks! I thought that widget was just the icon and i was looking for all 3 menus... *facepalm*
[07:07] <Cryoniq> and it is probably not even the correct way to do it anyway...
[07:07] <mneptok> Cryoniq: /etc/fstab
[07:07] <Cryoniq> thanks mneptok :)
[07:08] <lisapc> when I try to run Easycam2, it says: No camera, or no compatible camera found.  What can I do?  The webcam is built into my laptop

[07:15] <seravitae> anyone here play UT2K4 on ubuntu? seem to be having some difficulties. (it was running fine last time i installed it)
[07:15] <genii> gabz lsmod
[07:15] <gabz> genii, thanks
[07:15] <VeganChick> thanks guys!
[07:15] <genii> gabz np
[07:15] <oz__> yes seravitae
[07:15] <Cryoniq> Hmm.. this makes me confused. I have 2 NTFS drives with their respective own partitions. I used captive to access them. They are mounted in fstab as hdc1 and hdd1 under /dev then there been created directories under /mnt for each of their patition. But in order to access those, I need to mount them everytime after reboot. Is that correct? Or should I add something to bootup that mounts them to the dirs under /mnt. /dev/hddc1 and /
[07:16] <seravitae> oz__:  have you had any wierd things occur?
[07:16] <oz__> no, all work fine for me, did you install it with locki installer?
[07:16] <hang3r> Ok, So if know one can help me with that, does anyone know where the update-notifier stores its config?
[07:16] <seravitae> oz__: the locki installer? whats that?
[07:17] <seravitae> I just use the normal install script. it worked fine last time, but this time my mouse cursor goes nuts
[07:17] <seravitae> and inside the the game, the sensetivity is so high that like, 1 pixel movement makes my whole character rotate
[07:17] <rryan> can someone help me with installing ubuntu on a tablet ? it has a PCMCIA cdrom drive that it can boot from, but any distro of linux that uses ISOLINUX can't get past initramfs, it drops me to a busybox shell that says (initramfs)
[07:17] <oz__> the file what can install ut2k4, search it on the web an retry install
[07:17] <seravitae> well, ill look it up but the install script on the dvd works fine?
[07:17] <rryan> I was able to install Fedora Core 3 a few years ago just fine with their boot cd
[07:18] <Cryoniq> (I seriously need to get me a PDF of basic linux administration ^^ Forgot so much past years)
[07:18] <oz__> nop, juste an .bin file who ask you to put dvd in your drive
[07:18] <oz__> (sorry for my english =) )

[07:19] <hirogen> lol
[07:19] <Cryoniq> =P
[07:19] <seravitae> oz__: yeah, but how does that script differ to the one on the cd
[07:19] <hirogen> I assure you everythings functioning properly, where are some places to check to enable the sound
[07:19] <oz__> maybe an update ??
[07:19] <oz__> xhat s your error message
[07:19] <Cryoniq> Hmm..
[07:19] <vader> Hello Everyone, I have bought a new laptop.... HP dv9000 series.... Tried several different Ubuntu distro's and allways after the initial updates, I cannot get it to completely boot. x hangs so bad I cannot even get into text mode. The laptop has the nvidia chipset
[07:19] <hirogen> no error
[07:19] <Cryoniq> !sound
[07:19] <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
[07:19] <hirogen> just no sound
[07:19] <seravitae> im downloading the official linux update now - but i certainly didnt need this before.
[07:20] <seravitae> oz__: i dont get an error message. my mouse goes crazy.
[07:20] <jax> does anyone know where do i find the plugin for monkey's audio (ape)...thanks
[07:20] <hirogen> I set it to alsa, didnt work Ill check out the other links
[07:20] <oz__> ha....i dont know...
[07:21] <genii> Cryoniq in your /etc/fstab you need entries something like: /dev/hdc1 /mnt/hdc1     ro,user,auto 0 0 and /dev/hdd1 /mnt/hdd1     ro,user,auto 0 0
[07:21] <Cryoniq> I had some problems also get my sounds to work, but more related to certain apps and codecs I suspect (still) :P
[07:21] <steelb> where is my grub config
[07:21] <seravitae> It has to do with the SD layer i believe
[07:21] <bulmer> look in /boot/gub
[07:21] <bulmer> look in /boot/grb
[07:22] <seravitae> if i press ctrl+g the game works fine, but my mouse cursor drops out of the game.
[07:22] <bulmer> look in /boot/grub  man i cant type
[07:22] <seravitae> if i lock the cursor inside the window, it goes crazy.
[07:22] <Cryoniq> Ah :) Thanks genii *bow*
[07:22] <genii> Cryoniq np
[07:22] <oz__> lol, very strange problem
[07:23] <steelb> thanks bulmenr
[07:23] <rryan> anyone know how to get ubuntu to recognize my PCMCIA cdrom ? The live cd drops me to (initramfs) busybox shell.
[07:23] <steelb> lerls
[07:23] <rryan> my guess is it can't mount the cdrom so it can't get the data it needs
[07:23] <wiseKid> how do i go about getting a GUI for Ubuntu server
[07:24] <Cryoniq> genii, he he.. next problem.. my fstab look like that with the /mnt/capitive-200gb for hdd1 etc.. hmm...... to be more exact it is --> /dev/hdd1 /mnt/captive-200gb captive-ntfs defaults,noauto 0 0
[07:25] <Cryoniq> Strange that I need to do sudo mount /mnt/captive-200gb each time after reboot in order to get anything from it.. *shrug*
[07:25] <genii> Cryoniq Ah. No idea then, i don't know about captive-ntfs much
[07:25] <Helmi> i have two sound devices attached. a soundblaster audigy2 and a sennheiser usb headset. both basically work but i have repeatedly trouble with the headset. skype reports "problem with sound device" nearly everytime...
[07:25] <Helmi> ideas anyone?
[07:26] <ubunt1> !free
[07:26] <ubotu> freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing
[07:26] <ubunt1> !space
[07:26] <Flannel> wiseKid: what sort of GUI do yo uwant?
[07:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about space - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:26] <wiseKid> a desktop
[07:26] <Flannel> wiseKid: Ubuntu? Kubuntu? Xubuntu?  fluxbox?
[07:26] <wiseKid> Ubuntu
[07:26] <Flannel> wiseKid: install the 'ubuntu-desktop' package
[07:26] <Cryoniq> genii, I wish I didn't either and instead had a linux partition of it instead, but unfortunate I migrated finaly from windows totaly and it is loaded to 98% with stuff ^^
[07:26] <wiseKid> With sudo apt-get??
[07:27] <Flannel> wiseKid: yep.  sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[07:27] <wiseKid> That just tells me to put in the server cd and nothing happens
[07:27] <ubunt1> !i want to see where the much space or which directory have much space
[07:27] <Flannel> wiseKid: do you have internet on this machine?
[07:27] <wiseKid> Yes
[07:27] <Cryoniq> (oh except that I have a VMware workstation for Linux installed with XP around.. it is okay to call me a cheater now :P)
[07:27] <lisapc> is there any way to get a USB TV TUner to work in Edgy?
[07:27] <wiseKid> I set up Ath0 the same as when I use Ubuntu
[07:27] <Flannel> ubunt1: 'df' or 'du', at the terminal, there's a "disk usage" GUI utility in edgy, I believe.
[07:27] <omegabeta> Question: I have screwed up my theme, gnome-panel and other such stuff no longer works, How can i set the theme back to default without using X?
[07:28] <Flannel> wiseKid: alright, edit your sources.list, comment out (with #) the CD line.
[07:28] <genii> Cryoniq Maybe add the option auto instead of it being noauto. noauto means you need to manually mount it
[07:28] <omegacenti> Just wondering, but has the modification to intel i810 drivers where 915resolution is no longer needed happened yet?
[07:28] <omegacenti> I couldn't find any information on it.
[07:28] <Cryoniq> genii, that makes sense. I'll try that :P
[07:28] <wiseKid> I'm on a live CD right now
[07:28] <wiseKid> I get something like freeBSD before setting up xorg
[07:28] <Flannel> wiseKid: what?  freebsd?
[07:29] <gabz> wiseKid, you need to install ubuntu to install the desktop
[07:29] <wiseKid> the command line
[07:29] <Flannel> wiseKid: command line is linux, just as much as it is BSD.
[07:29] <wiseKid> I dont know how to use command line that well =(
[07:29] <Cryoniq> I so totaly love the goodwill to help in Linux world *hugs the comunity*
[07:30] <Flannel> wiseKid: alrright, so, "sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list" then add the # to the beginning of the cd line (it'll be near the top), then ctrl-O to save, ctrl-X to quit that, then "sudo apt-get update", then "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop"
[07:30] <lnxtech> Has anyone ever seen a folder disappear on ubuntu when you renamed a folder on an hfsplus (journaling turned off) filesystem?
[07:30] <boojit> hey all, so um anyone else here who has just put on the last slew of updates for Feisty Herd 5, on a Thinkpad T40 series?
[07:30] <ubunt1> !umount
[07:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about umount - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:30] <Joshooa> Can someone help me set up Evolution with my GMail account? Will that work?
[07:30] <Flannel> boojit: #ubuntu+1 for Feisty
[07:30] <boojit> I just did and lost my wireless
[07:30] <wiseKid> Flannel: thanks gonna try that now
[07:30] <boojit> Flannel: thanks much
[07:31] <Cryoniq> boojit, you running Feisty Fawn?
[07:31] <Flannel> wiseKid: once you get that installed, come back, and ask how to install the desktop kernel, instead of the server one
[07:31] <LadyNikon> whats 6.06 breezy?
[07:31] <boojit> Cryoniq: yes
[07:31] <Cryoniq> boojit, nice! How is it compared to Edgy?
[07:31] <Flannel> LadyNikon: 6.06 is Dapper, 5.10 is breezy.  There is no "6.06 breezy",  They're different releases.  The former is one of the current ones, the latter has one month left before it goes out of support
[07:32] <LadyNikon> so 6.06 is dapper ok
[07:32] <LadyNikon> is there  a list of the different releases
[07:32] <LadyNikon> thanks Flannel :)
[07:32] <Cryoniq> I am really looking forward to Feisty, but I am too chicken to actually take the step over to it untill it is released as sharp :)
[07:32] <LadyNikon> Cryoniq: heh.. but thats not fun!
[07:32] <Cryoniq> lol
[07:33] <wiseKid> Flannel: I was trying to get lamp installed and configured the easy way, or is it not that difficult for Ubuntu edgy
[07:33] <ubunt1> du
[07:33] <ubunt1> don't worek
[07:33] <ubunt1> work
[07:33] <ubunt1> i still don't have space
[07:33] <Flannel> LadyNikon: http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases
[07:33] <yell0w> cowards
[07:33] <tapoxi> Is it worth it to install network-manager in Edgy, or is it too unstable?
[07:33] <Flannel> wiseKid: eh?  Installing LAMP on a desktop box is still painless.
[07:33] <wiseKid> lol k
[07:33] <wiseKid> brb
[07:33] <Flannel> wiseKid: but, you still want the desktop kernel, not the server kernel, if you're using it as a desktop
[07:34] <LadyNikon> ah the new one is edgy
[07:34] <beta-guy> I need help with enabling sound on my computer it looks like it found the sound card but I'm hearing no sound
[07:34] <LadyNikon> i must have used an old disk or something
[07:34] <Flannel> !sound  | beta-guy
[07:34] <ubotu> beta-guy: 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).

[07:34] <wiseKid> ok I'll get that installed
[07:34] <Cryoniq> why is it called coward btw? Someting to do with cow? But cows aren't that chicken :P
[07:34] <n30n> How do i configure wine sound settings
[07:34] <Flannel> ubotu: you need more space?  sorry, those commands tell you how much space you have
[07:34] <Cryoniq> (nm that question is for a totaly different irc channel :P )
[07:34] <Flannel> ubunt1: sorry, that was for you
[07:34] <yell0w> Cryoniq, just talking  'bout those who don't live onthe edge
[07:35] <Cryoniq> =)
[07:35] <yell0w> :P

[07:35] <ncaller> I'm trying to get vmware-server working in Edgy, I have the server installed and kernel modules loaded, I am running the 64bit version of Edgy, I am having a problem with vmware-authd.  It just says . Reason: Operation not permitted, when I try to connect to it.  Any ideas?
[07:36] <Cryoniq> Hmm.. I could make a VMWare virtual partition and actually install feisty and look for myself I just realised *bonk myself*
[07:37] <ubunt1> Flannel: and do you know the command that see who file use much space
[07:37] <LadyNikon> whats a good vm ware client?
[07:37] <LadyNikon> well opensource version
[07:37] <ncaller> ...vmware-server-console
[07:37] <LadyNikon> ncaller: will that run windows though
[07:37] <LadyNikon> i heard it didnt
[07:37] <yell0w> !vmware
[07:37] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware
[07:37] <ircusr> what i dont like about vmware is that it doesnt have 3d accel
[07:38] <Matthai> want to run windows under ubuntu?
[07:38] <LadyNikon> yell0w: that would be great and all.. if i wasnt looking for an opensource version :)
[07:38] <LadyNikon> thanks for the help though
[07:38] <ncaller> Lady then look at Xen
[07:38] <yell0w> !xen
[07:38] <ubotu> XEN is a virtual machine monitor for x86 that supports execution of multiple guest operating systems with unprecedented levels of performance and resource isolation. Information on installing it for Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenOnEdgy
[07:38] <ncaller> www.Xensource.com
[07:38] <LadyNikon> thanks ncaller
[07:38] <LadyNikon> thanks yellow
[07:38] <mura> hello. i just wondering, does standard edgy eft (on ubuntu liveCD) support dual core processors?
[07:39] <Checkka> DOes ubuntu have a utility to compile svn's?
[07:39] <ncaller> svn's?
[07:39] <ircusr> does Xen have 3d accel?
[07:39] <Checkka> to basically install something like this: svn://svn.videolan.org/vlc/trunk
[07:39] <Matthai> LadyNikon, don't try with xen, it is pain in the ***, especially networking .-)
[07:39] <ncaller> you use svn to download it
[07:39] <yell0w> LadyNikon, triggers save time and keystrokes and long facts
[07:39] <Checkka> is svn a command?
[07:39] <ncaller> then use gcc or whatever to build it
[07:40] <ncaller> yes
[07:40] <shatrat> Checkka, well, theres "svn" to check out the source code, and then you should be able to use ./configure, make, sudo make install
[07:40] <ubunt1> recycle bin in kde wher is
[07:40] <Checkka> ok
[07:40] <Checkka> but svn doesnt seem to be a command in ubuntu
[07:40] <shatrat> Checkka, although you know there is VLC in the repositories?
[07:40] <Matthai> LadyNikon, YESTERDAY i SET UP WINDOWS UNDER VMWARE OLAYER UNDER uBUNTU AND IT IS WORKING GREAT
[07:40] <ncaller> LadyNikon Xen is going to be great, I'm going to wait on it another 6 months though at least
[07:40] <ajkochanowicz> anyone know how to use Azureus?
[07:40] <shatrat> CharlieSu, sudo apt-get install svn ;D
[07:40] <Matthai> sorry, caps lock
[07:40] <yell0w> Checkka, sudo aptitude install svn
[07:40] <Checkka> yeah i need to use a very new version of vlc
[07:40] <LadyNikon> yell0w: yea but it doesnt give opinions and take out the human part of the convo.. which is what i wanted :)
[07:41] <shatrat> ajkochanowicz, I do
[07:41] <Flannel> Checkka, yell0w, shatrat, subversion, not svn
[07:41] <LadyNikon> Matthai: its for school
[07:41] <ajkochanowicz> whenever I download a .torrent file, it tells me it's not a file
[07:41] <LadyNikon> I need to run win 98 and win 2k for class
[07:41] <shatrat> ajkochanowicz, "it"?
[07:41] <yell0w> Flannel, ahh, i got it mixed up with cvs, thanks for the reminder
[07:41] <ircusr> what class?
[07:42] <ajkochanowicz> he hurt me...
[07:42] <Checkka> thanks Flannel
[07:42] <yell0w> LadyNikon, thus they are called factoids :)
[07:46] <yell0w> night all!

[07:49] <b34numz> are there?
[07:49] <ncaller> you haven't hung around the linux scene before have you?
[07:49] <Olivia> sup wiggars

[07:50] <Olivia> how come when i rite sum fin every thign stops
[07:50] <b34numz> aree there any young girls if so press 666
[07:50] <Olivia>  perver
[07:50] <Olivia> t
[07:50] <Olivia> so whats the beef?
[07:50] <Olivia> where is every one from
[07:51] <Checkka> after I've checked out the svn, where do i config/make it?
[07:51] <spike723> where can I get the "tip" command in ubuntu?
[07:51] <Olivia>  hellllllo
[07:51] <ncaller> Checkka what directory did you download the source into??
[07:52] <Madpilot> spike723, 'tip'?
[07:52] <Checkka> svn checkout svn://svn.videolan.org/vlc/trunk vlc-trunk
[07:52] <Checkka> i simply ran that command
[07:52] <Olivia>  checka
[07:52] <spike723> Madpilot: it's like "cu" or "minicom"
[07:52] <Checkka> ?
[07:52] <Hobbsee> !offtopic > Olivia
[07:52] <Checkka> hmm i see it in my ~ folder
[07:53] <Olivia>  helo
[07:53] <da-z> Checkka: if your svn co http://...program program && cd program && ./configure && make
[07:53] <Olivia> checckaa what is this chat room 4
[07:53] <Madpilot> Olivia, this channel is for tech support for Ubuntu. If you want to just chat, join #ubuntu-offtopic, please.
[07:54] <da-z> Checkka: also install checkinstall and fakeroot. then, instead of make install issue: sudo checkinstall -D make install
[07:54] <da-z> so you-ll get a package before installing, in order to easy reinstall/remove
[07:55] <Checkka> da-z, but i dont really wish to install it, i just want to run it from the same folder
[07:56] <Checkka> da-z, there doesnt seem to be a ./configure file in the folder
[07:56] <da-z> Checkka: some programs need installing, if they have hardcoded paths ..
[07:56] <clouder`grr> Is there a way to get a list of suggested packages to be removed by apt?  I noticed it comes up some times when I install or uninstall how do I just get it just to see
[07:56] <Checkka> ok
[07:56] <Luke> i'm trying to replace lilo with grub but when I run grub-install, I get "The file /boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly." Anyone know how to fix this?
[07:56] <Checkka> da-z, there's a configure.ac file
[07:56] <da-z> Checkka: maybe it is already built (binary)
[07:56] <da-z> or maybe it's a python app ..
[07:56] <Flannel> clouder`grr: if you add -s to the command, it'll simulate, and just show you what.  Or, you can view the packges (apt-cache show [package] ), or go to packages.ubuntu.com and browse online
[07:56] <da-z> you'll learn to make the difference in time
[07:57] <Flannel> !grub | Luke
[07:57] <ubotu> Luke: 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
[07:57] <Flannel> Luke: first link gives step by step on installing GRUB
[07:57] <Luke> Flannel: thanks
[07:57] <Checkka> im not sure how to configure it
[07:57] <Checkka> there's no ./configure
[07:57] <Olivia> ,ad pilot where do u get that chat at:D
[07:58] <Olivia>  this is a boring chat room have u ppl nothing better to do with ur lives
[07:58] <Olivia>  lol
[07:58] <Checkka> there's a configure.ac file...
[07:58] <shatrat> Checkka, if there is no "configure" is there an "autogen.sh" maybe? or a file named "INSTALL" or "README" that you could look in for instructions?
[07:58] <clouder`grr> Flannel: thanks :D
[07:58] <Olivia> where d u go to my lovley
[07:58] <da-z> Checkka: its an autoconf file
[07:59] <gabz> !mount
[07:59] <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
[07:59] <Checkka> lol, there's not autogen.sh but there is a INSTALL that
[07:59] <Olivia> b
[07:59] <Checkka> tells me to run ./configure
[07:59] <da-z> Checkka: just issue the command autoconf first
[08:00] <da-z> and will create a configure based on the configure.ac template
[08:00] <Luke> Flannel: same error... the guide says exactly to do what I'm already doing
[08:00] <Checkka> ./autoconf?
[08:00] <da-z> apt-get install autoconf
[08:00] <da-z> and then autoconf in the directory of the program
[08:01] <Checkka> neat
[08:01] <Checkka> what does it do?
[08:01] <mneptok> configures things. automatically.
[08:01] <da-z> quote from the autoconf manual " To create configure from configure.ac, run the autoconf program with no arguments.  autoconf processes configure.ac with the M4 macro processor, using the Autoconf macros."
[08:01] <Checkka> i get alot of configure.ac:5562: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_PROG_JAVA
[08:02] <mneptok> Checkka: what are you trying to build?
[08:02] <Checkka> vlc-trunk
[08:02] <mneptok> why not VLC from the repos?
[08:02] <Checkka> i need to use a very new version
[08:02] <Checkka> for shoutcast tv support
[08:02] <mistone> I have a microSD card ( and reader ) and I am trying to remove the .Trash-mistone folder but it says its read only
[08:02] <mneptok> VLC is going to have a TON of source lib dependencies.
[08:02] <mistone> how do I delete it
[08:02] <da-z> Checkka: does a README or INSTALL exist in there ? maybe you should read it first...
[08:03] <Checkka> the INSTALL tells me to run ./configure
[08:03] <Luke> i'm trying to replace lilo with grub but when I run grub-install, I get "The file /boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly." Anyone know how to fix this?
[08:03] <Checkka> i think they use the same INSTALL for all their sources
[08:03] <Checkka> the README is just credits
[08:04] <shatrat> mistone, cd to /media/whateverthename of the card is and sudo rm -r -Trash-mistone perhaps
[08:04] <da-z> sounds like the svn version isnt a release version for which the INSTALL is made
[08:04] <mistone> shatrat I tried it said read only file system
[08:04] <mistone> I tried making myself the owner of the file
[08:04] <mistone> I tried chmod 777
[08:04] <shatrat> mistone, or gksudo nautilus and do it graphically.  Oh, hmm, well in that case im not sure
[08:04] <shatrat> mistone, does it have a little write protect switch on it?
[08:04] <da-z> Checkka: compiling things can be complicated. you must know what you're doing there
[08:04] <mneptok> mistone: what format is the card?
[08:04] <mistone> microSD
[08:05] <mneptok> filesystem
[08:05] <Checkka> ah :(
[08:05] <mistone> FAT32
[08:05] <mistone> er
[08:05] <mistone> FAT16
[08:05] <mneptok> chown -R the mount point
[08:05] <mistone> same error( for every file )
[08:05] <pajama> exir
[08:06] <pajama> exit
[08:06] <Checkka> hmm
[08:06] <Checkka> make just creates binaries correct?
[08:06] <cpk1> isnt there an aptitude cowsay thing? besides the cowsay? like where you can make dragons and stuff
[08:06] <Checkka> make install moves the binaries to the correct places?
[08:06] <mistone> I think I am going to format the card
[08:06] <VeganChick> I can't seem to edit sysctl.conf in order to emulate a right-click on my one button mouse...and i can't log in as root, but i *can* log in as root in terminal...
[08:07] <shatrat> Checkka, make compiles, make install installs, youre correct
[08:07] <mneptok> mistone: sudo chown -R $username:$username /path/to/mount/point
[08:07] <shatrat> !sudo | VeganChick
[08:07] <ubotu> VeganChick: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[08:07] <Checkka> ok thanks
[08:07] <mistone> mneptok: I can't own the file
[08:07] <VeganChick> i tried to edit the file through terminal and then it wouldn't let me get out of the file (the ^ commands didn't work)
[08:07] <mistone> Its because of how mounted shit works
[08:07] <mneptok> mistone: why
[08:07] <mistone> its like if you try to chown a mounted file
[08:07] <mistone> you can't
[08:07] <mneptok> did you put the card in fstab?
[08:08] <mistone> well you could
[08:08] <shatrat> VeganChick, those are ctrl, like ctrl O to save and ctrl x to exit
[08:08] <mneptok> if you put the card in fstab, take it out
[08:08] <VeganChick> ohhh, thanks shatrat!
[08:08] <mneptok> the autmount will handle perms
[08:08] <Checkka> lol, conclusion
[08:09] <Checkka> I guess ill be using vmware and 8gb of my HD until a new VLC comes out in repo form :\
[08:09] <mneptok> Checkka: URL for a stream you want to watch?
[08:10] <Checkka> hold on
[08:10] <Checkka> http://64.157.15.135:8010;stream.nsv
[08:11] <cpk1> no one knows anything about a super duper apt-get moo? =(
[08:12] <chuck`_> anyone running a LAMP setup?
[08:12] <mneptok> Checkka: i can hear but not see it in the repo version of mPlayer
[08:12] <Checkka> yeah
[08:13] <Checkka> the current vlc doesnt support it
[08:13] <Checkka> the video
[08:13] <genii> chuck`_: Yes, on 6.06
[08:13] <chuck`_> did you have any trouble with mod_perl or mysql after installing the packages w/ synaptic?
[08:13] <Checkka> http://66.90.103.36:10000;stream.nsv
[08:13] <Checkka> try that one
[08:14] <Checkka> that should make more *nix users more into shoutcast :)
[08:14] <chuck`_> PHP is working fine, but mod_perl and mysqld are bitching about permissions
[08:14] <genii> chuck`_: I did a minimalistic install with no gui and used apt-get to install other stuff.
[08:14] <zipper> Back when 6.06 were out, i tried putting it on my laptop. After much trouble i got everything but acpi working. Wouldnt boot unless i turned acpi=off. I didnt try out APM however, what are the advantages and disadvantages of apm vs acpi?
[08:14] <chuck`_> Well, same deal
[08:14] <FlipCoder> hey, is it possible to get higher resolutions than just 1024x768 on ubuntu 6.10 live?
[08:14] <mistone> how do I format something to FAT16 64k cluster
[08:15] <zipper> FlipCoder: yes
[08:15] <genii> chuck`_: But anyhow, no iisues installing the perl module
[08:15] <zipper> FlipCoder: you're having trouble changing it to something?
[08:15] <FlipCoder> i have an ati radeon x300, and im not sure if i can do the driver installation on the live cd
[08:16] <FlipCoder> well, it only has 2 options, 800x600 and 1024x768
[08:16] <spike723> are there docs on getting compiz set up?
[08:16] <zipper> FlipCoder: what does your monitor support?
[08:16] <FlipCoder> its a widescreen 21" so pretty high, let me check
[08:16] <zipper> spike723: loads on the ubuntu forums
[08:16] <chuck`_> genii: I've installed everything fine but whenever I try to execute a perl script through CGI it returns a 403 error
[08:16] <genii> chuck`_: I used libapache2-mod-perl2 however
[08:16] <koprnikus> what is screen buffer ?
[08:16] <FlipCoder> 1680x1050
[08:16] <espen> when i boot the ubuntu 6.10 cd, it takes some time to load, but after that i get a command screen where no commands work.. anyone know anything about that?
[08:16] <chuck`_> genii: I believe I used the same
[08:17] <Luke> i'm trying to replace lilo with grub but when I run grub-install, I get "The file /boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly." Anyone know how to fix this?
[08:17] <FlipCoder> 1680x1050 is the max i get in windows
[08:17] <chuck`_> genii: I chmod'd the script and put in the AddHandler line in the apache conf but no dice
[08:17] <genii> chuck Ah, that looks like an execution problem. Make sure wherever you have the scripts that the webserver user has rights to it and that executable is set
[08:17] <chuck`_> genii: and the Options line for the documentroot
[08:18] <zipper> FlipCoder: look inside your /etc/X11/Xorg.conf - it contains all resolutions and other stuff. Just add the resolutions you want. You can change resolution inside X with ctrl+alt+ +/-
[08:18] <chuck`_> genii: should just need Options +ExecCGI on the DocumentRoot for that, right?
[08:18] <FlipCoder> oh cool i didnt know that, thanks
[08:18] <FlipCoder> ill give it a try
[08:18] <genii> chuck`_: Yup, thats all it should need.
[08:18] <CaptainMorgan> new install of 6.10, what happened to my graphics? I am experiencing 'shadowing' when I attempt to move any window. I examined xorg.conf and it noted ATI under "Device" and later on down. Isn't that correct? That's what I have installed... I didn't experience shadowing in 6.06
[08:18] <chuck`_> genii: Tried it ;o
[08:18] <chuck`_> genii: Doesn't work for whatever reason
[08:19] <chuck`_> so something else is fubar
[08:19] <ShakaGoldSaint> CaptainMorgan, ati happens
[08:19] <zipper> FlipCoder: np.. beware though, lots of people get problems when they mess with xorg.conf, but dont be scared. Its the fastest way to do it... if it works :)
[08:19] <FlipCoder> ah
[08:19] <genii> chuck`_: Did you chown them to the apache user ( I think is wwwroot or so)
[08:19] <CaptainMorgan> ShakaGoldSaint, are you saying this is permanent ?
[08:19] <Checkka> lol
[08:19] <FlipCoder> so what about hardware acceleration, do i need fglrx?
[08:19] <ShakaGoldSaint> CaptainMorgan, you might be using the vesa driver
[08:19] <ShakaGoldSaint> CaptainMorgan, what video card you have?
[08:19] <zipper> FlipCoder: for 3d accel, yeah
[08:20] <FlipCoder> is that possible on just the live cd?
[08:20] <xemoka> (anyone know anything about getting broadcom wireless working on an acer system (that being knowing more then what the forums say about it...)
[08:20] <FlipCoder> because im just making sure everything works before getting a new hard drive for ubuntu
[08:20] <CaptainMorgan> ShakaGoldSaint, ATI X1300 VisionTek
[08:20] <Checkka> Amazing, im using 8gb of hd space, and 256mb of reserved RAM, but to watch any tv show i want its well worth it
[08:20] <chuck`_> genii: `invalid user`... is there a command to list availible users/groups?
[08:20] <zipper> FlipCoder: hmm, dont think it will work
[08:21] <zipper> FlipCoder: since the xorg.conf config file which needs to be changed, is on the live cd
[08:21] <FlipCoder> ah
[08:21] <FlipCoder> i just need to verify that my videocard works with ubuntu before doing the full install
[08:21] <genii> chuck`_: If you do sudo vipw    you can see all of them. to exit, use :q!
[08:21] <ShakaGoldSaint> CaptainMorgan, open your xorg.conf
[08:21] <CaptainMorgan> ShakaGoldSaint, it is
[08:21] <ShakaGoldSaint> CaptainMorgan, check your device section
[08:21] <zipper> FlipCoder: probably... Not obscenely old, nor bleeding edge new.
[08:22] <CaptainMorgan> I did.. what I am looking for?
[08:22] <genii> chuck`_: Also a ls -l of /var/www should say who owns that stuff
[08:22] <ShakaGoldSaint> driver    "<whatDoYouHaveHere>"
[08:23] <ShakaGoldSaint> CaptainMorgan, ?
[08:23] <CaptainMorgan> what? oh... please tab my name, thanks..
[08:24] <CaptainMorgan> ShakaGoldSaint, 	Driver		"vesa"
[08:24] <ShakaGoldSaint> CaptainMorgan, :D
[08:24] <CaptainMorgan> ShakaGoldSaint, what should it be ?
[08:24] <ShakaGoldSaint> CaptainMorgan, fresh install right?
[08:24] <CaptainMorgan> ShakaGoldSaint, yes
[08:25] <ShakaGoldSaint> CaptainMorgan, alrigthy, you need to install the #~#5!!@@ fglrx driver
[08:25] <ShakaGoldSaint> CaptainMorgan, enable the restricted repo in synaptic
[08:26] <CaptainMorgan> ShakaGoldSaint,  it is enables
[08:26] <CaptainMorgan> enabled
[08:26] <ShakaGoldSaint> CaptainMorgan, perfect
[08:26] <ShakaGoldSaint> CaptainMorgan, just in case: sudo apt-get update
[08:26] <zipper> FlipCoder: if you're lucky, after the install, the system might even get some better info from your screens EEID and fix the resolutions itself. Not sure how much of a deal the live cd does of this.
[08:26] <chuck`_> genii: I chown'd the script to www-data as well as the directory but still no dice
[08:26] <CaptainMorgan> ShakaGoldSaint, already done
[08:26] <chuck`_> genii: That's the only user I saw that seemed related to the httpd
[08:27] <FlipCoder> yea, i figured it might do that, didnt want to assume though
[08:27] <genii> chuck`_: Hmm. Try putting as first line in one of the scripts:    #!/usr/bin/perl        <--- put in path of perl executable
[08:27] <ShakaGoldSaint> CaptainMorgan, then: sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r)
[08:27] <ShakaGoldSaint> then: sudo aticonfig --initial
[08:27] <chuck`_> genii: Did it already
[08:27] <gabz> !nvidia
[08:27] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:27] <genii> chuck`_: Yes, that was the right user :)
[08:28] <ShakaGoldSaint> then reboot, or if you feel geek then: sudo modprobe fglrx and then restart X, (ctrl+alt+backspace)
[08:28] <ShakaGoldSaint> oh wait
[08:28] <ShakaGoldSaint> before that last thing, you have to disable composite in xorg.conf
[08:28] <CaptainMorgan> ShakaGoldSaint, no worries.. Ill reboot.. thank you
[08:28] <ShakaGoldSaint> wait
[08:28] <CaptainMorgan> disable composite?
[08:28] <tmorris> how do I chmod all directories to +x recursively?
[08:29] <ShakaGoldSaint> yep
[08:29] <CaptainMorgan> how?
[08:29] <ShakaGoldSaint> sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:29] <chuck`_> genii: basically i've done everything I've done the past 500 times i setup apache on other boxes (and then some) but it still bitches about permissions
[08:29] <ShakaGoldSaint> add these three lines:
[08:29] <cafuego_> find . -type d -exec chmod a+x {} \;
[08:29] <tmorris> ah thanks, I nearly had it :)
[08:29] <gabz> tmorris, add -R
[08:29] <cafuego_> gabz: no
[08:29] <moty> goijfiojo
[08:29] <ShakaGoldSaint> Section "Extensions"
[08:29] <moty> hpkpkpokd
[08:29] <ShakaGoldSaint> Option	    "Composite" "Disable"
[08:29] <ShakaGoldSaint> EndSection
[08:29] <genii> chuck`_: Well, if you want to pastebin your httpd.conf or apache2.conf I'll look at it. Also a ls -l result of the path containing the perl scripts may be useful to examine permissions etc
[08:29] <moty> aku lg mumet
[08:30] <ShakaGoldSaint> in the end of the file, then reboot, and that should be it
[08:30] <moty> haloo genii
[08:30] <JonasNZ> hey. wondering if i can get some help setting up an internet connection over bluetooth with my gprs phone
[08:30] <chuck`_> genii: Sure, give me a few secs
[08:30] <moty> pejuh kowe
[08:30] <tmorris> thanks cafuego
[08:30] <genii> moty Good morning (or evening depening on where you are)
[08:30] <moty> taiiiiiiiii
[08:30] <moty> asuuuuuuuuuuuuu
[08:30] <moty> bajingan
[08:31] <moty> lonte
[08:31] <CaptainMorgan> ShakaGoldSaint, will do, thank you
[08:31] <Luke> i'm trying to replace lilo with grub but when I run grub-install, I get "The file /boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly." Anyone know how to fix this?
[08:31] <ShakaGoldSaint> CaptainMorgan, np
[08:31] <ShakaGoldSaint> let me know if it works
[08:31] <moty> fuck you
[08:32] <genii> Luke try using the root switch. man grub-install should give you more info
[08:32] <genii> Luke --root-direcory   or similar is what to look for
[08:33] <kraut> moin
[08:34] <VeganChick> argh....i can't log in as the root user
[08:35] <Checkka> HOw do i remove old linux kernels?
[08:35] <Joshooa> I just used GParted to partition my 200GB harddrive into smaller ones, and it only mounts the first partition, how do I mount the rest?
[08:35] <timfrost> !root | VeganChick
[08:35] <ubotu> VeganChick: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[08:36] <VeganChick> I know what root is, i just can't log into it.
[08:36] <VeganChick> Does Ubuntu not do that like mac does?
[08:36] <genii> VeganChick: You are not supposed to be able to login as root user, so that is a good thing. Use the sudo command to do things with root privelege
[08:36] <VeganChick> oh
[08:36] <timfrost> VeganChick, use sudo instead
[08:36] <ShakaGoldSaint> CaptainMorgan, so?
[08:36] <CaptainMorgan> ShakaGoldSaint, thanks! not is there no more shadowing, but there's also a nice difference between the previous
[08:36] <CaptainMorgan> not *only
[08:36] <VeganChick> i don't like editing files in terminal...
[08:36] <CaptainMorgan> it's 'sharper'
[08:37] <Joshooa> VeganChick: Have you tried with gksudo gedit?
[08:37] <ShakaGoldSaint> CaptainMorgan, that was because you were using a nerdenthal driver
[08:37] <CaptainMorgan> :)
[08:37] <genii> VeganChick: You can use gksudo gedit      as well for graphical root-privelege editor
[08:37] <ShakaGoldSaint> CaptainMorgan, the one that works with almost every single card
[08:38] <genii> VeganChick: That is for gnome, for KDE it is kdesu kate    (or editor name you prefer)
[08:38] <Luke> genii: yea i've used that with no luck =/
[08:38] <ShakaGoldSaint> CaptainMorgan, i have to say this is the very first time that my explanation works at the first try :D
[08:38] <CaptainMorgan> ahaha, nice job ;)
[08:38] <genii> chuck`_: Did you give a url? I may have missed it if so
[08:38] <zipper> Back when 6.06 were out, i tried putting it on my laptop. After much trouble i got everything but acpi working. Wouldnt boot unless i turned acpi=off. I didnt try out APM however, what are the advantages and disadvantages of apm vs acpi - and how does one change between the two?
[08:38] <chuck`_> genii: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10147/  on there is the path to perl, permissions on the entire directory listing of the document root, the Perl script code and then the httpd.conf (DocumentRoot + relevant info is defined at the bottom)
[08:39] <CaptainMorgan> ShakaGoldSaint, curious tho.. where you come by this information?
[08:39] <ShakaGoldSaint> CaptainMorgan, you can now try xgl+beryl/compiz :D
[08:39] <chuck`_> genii: There :] 
[08:39] <CaptainMorgan> ? waht's that?
[08:39] <genii> chuck`_:  :) OK studying
[08:39] <mneptok> CaptainMorgan: trust me, you don't want 'em
[08:39] <ShakaGoldSaint> xD
[08:39] <CaptainMorgan> I mean, a google search wouldn't provide with that info.. unless I did it wrong..
[08:39] <ShakaGoldSaint> yep
[08:40] <CaptainMorgan> technical docs ?
[08:40] <CaptainMorgan> official tech docs?
[08:40] <ShakaGoldSaint> your linux installation is unstable enough with the fglrx driver, you won't want any more troubles
[08:40] <ShakaGoldSaint> :P
[08:40] <ShakaGoldSaint> i recommend you NOT to look for "beryl" on youtbe ;)
[08:41] <hollywoodb> zipper: acpi is useful for suspend, power management, things like that.... I don't believe apm is used much any more.... there are still some systems where acpi is problematic, though
[08:41] <genii> chuck`_: "test.cgi*" is the script you are testing??
[08:41] <chuck`_> genii: Yes
[08:42] <ShakaGoldSaint> CaptainMorgan, if you already did... and you discovery you've now became a eye-candy freak, there's #ubuntu-effects
[08:42] <ShakaGoldSaint> discovered*
[08:42] <zipper> hollywoodb: i see.. Well, i cant use acpi at all, the system wont even boot with it. I can live without the fancy options, but i would like to have at least some power features. Was thinking that using apm was better than just turning acpi off
[08:42] <genii> chuck`_: Remove the *
[08:43] <Luke> genii: any other suggestions for the error i'm getting?
[08:43] <chuck`_> genii: What asterisk?
[08:43] <binary0> if i do a find . -mtime +365 , and pipe to -exec to delete the files, will it delete subdirectories as well inside directories or _only_ files ?
[08:43] <VeganChick> grr, apparently i'm not supposed to be able to right-click easily. nothing it working
[08:43] <hollywoodb> zipper: well, you may still be able to pull off cpu scaling to conserve power, but I know sleep states and such are indicated by acpi states: http://www.advogato.org/article/913.html
[08:43] <chuck`_> genii: that's just part of the terminal's output, it's not actually in the filename ;o
[08:44] <chuck`_> genii: chuck@chucktop:/var/www$ cp test.cgi* test.cgi | cp: `test.cgi' and `test.cgi' are the same file
[08:44] <genii> chuck`_: Add to your conf file for the /var/www declaration:
[08:44] <genii>     Order allow,deny
[08:44] <genii>     Allow from localhost
[08:44] <genii>     Deny from all
[08:44] <chuck`_> genii: Yeah I had that in there before too
[08:44] <hollywoodb> zipper: something like swsuspend might work for getting it to suspend/sleep without acpi enabled, I haven't used it myself
[08:45] <genii> Luke: Offhand nothing comes to mind :(
[08:45] <zipper> hollywoodb: I see, thanks. That url doesnt work btw, 404
[08:45] <zipper> nevermind
[08:45] <zipper> it does
[08:45] <Joshooa> When I format a harddrive, and partition it, how do I get all the partitions to show up?
[08:45] <mneptok> chuck`_: does the cgi have the execute bit?
[08:45] <chuck`_> mneptok: ?
[08:45] <chuck`_> mneptok: Engrish
[08:45] <Luke> genii: ok thanks
[08:45] <mneptok> chuck`_: chmod +x test.cgi
[08:45] <chuck`_> mneptok: Oh
[08:45] <hollywoodb> Joshooa: `fdisk -l` ?
[08:45] <chuck`_> mneptok: Yeah, i did chmod a+x on it
[08:46] <mneptok> k
[08:46] <hollywoodb> Joshooa: or `parted /dev/hda print all` if you have parted and you're looking at /dev/hda
[08:46] <chuck`_> genii: still a 403 error after re-adding that
[08:47] <genii> chuck`_: Have you been restarting with something like:  sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart   ?
[08:47] <chuck`_> genii: no
[08:47] <chuck`_> genii: sudo /usr/sbin/apache2 -k restart -DSSL
[08:47] <VeganChick> I used gksudo gedit on the mouseemu file and inserted the code i wanted to change and then saved it. that should workk, right?
[08:48] <hollywoodb> VeganChick: should work
[08:48] <VeganChick> argh
[08:48] <Joshooa> hollywoodb I can see them in GParted but they don't show with fdisk -l
[08:48] <genii> chuck`_: Make sure if you do it that way, another instance is not running from the init.d then or it will just have cached conf
[08:49] <chuck`_> genii: Yeah I killed that one that was originally running
[08:49] <hollywoodb> Joshooa: have you applied the changes with gparted yet ?
[08:49] <kintaro0e> hi guys..whats better for my server: vmware or xen?
[08:50] <chuck`_> genii: only /usr/sbin/apache2 is in the ps list
[08:50] <Joshooa> hollywoodb Yeah, and if I use the terminal and unmount them one by one, and remount them, only the first one pops up on my desktop, the rest wont
[08:50] <genii> chuck`_: Are you getting some warning from apache2 startup that says basically "can't determine hostname resorting to 127.0.0.1" or something similar?
[08:51] <chuck`_> genii: No warnings
[08:51] <chuck`_> genii: Works fine, tested it on my other comp as well by going to this box's LAN IP
[08:51] <genii> OK
[08:51] <Joshooa> hollywoodb If I go to Media I can see them though
[08:51] <kdeedk> Is there any site that explains to me what each directories does, such as etc, lib, www etc?
[08:52] <chuck`_> genii: PHP is working like a charm too, I made a script to show phpinfo() and no issues there
[08:52] <ShakaGoldSaint> CaptainMorgan, so you won't try beryl? :D :D :D
[08:52] <hollywoodb> kdeedk: search for "filesystem heirarchy standard"
[08:52] <genii> chuck`_: The only other thing I can think that may be affecting it is some scriptalias entry but offhand I forget which conf file those are in.
[08:53] <hollywoodb> Joshooa: not sure on that one... I know that partitions that are part of the actual root filesystem (like / or /home) don't show up on the desktop, other than that everything I've mounted has shown up fine, whether it is in /etc/fstab or not
[08:53] <pavs> is there a winamp for linux?
[08:53] <hollywoodb> pavs: xmms
[08:53] <kdeedk> hollywoodb Isn't "Filesystem Hiercachy Standard or FHS" Doesn't it just talk about it's filesystem (ext2, ext3) ?
[08:53] <chuck`_> genii: it wouldn't be hidden somewhere in apache2.conf?  I haven't set up apache since 1.3 so I don't know if theres shit hidden in 40 files now
[08:53] <hollywoodb> kdeedk: no, its a full heirarchy specification
[08:54] <genii> chuck`_: Hangon. Do chown www-data:www-data /var/www/test.cgi    right now group is still root
[08:54] <kdeedk> hollywoodb thank you very much.
[08:54] <hollywoodb> kdeedk: http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html
[08:54] <pavs> hollywoodb i tried xmms and it has an ugly skin by default :( winamp wout be nice if it was ported to linux
[08:55] <peija-kas> pavs XMMS takes Winamp skins
[08:55] <xerophyte> how many people like the domain name linuxbee.org for linux related stuff
[08:55] <hollywoodb> pavs: xmms supports winamp classic skins, as does bmp (beep media player) and I believe audacious
[08:55] <peija-kas> just copy winamp skins to XMMS skins folder
[08:55] <peija-kas> classic skins yes
[08:55] <Joshooa> If I switch to KDE for a little, will it have my setting saved for my network and stuff?
[08:55] <peija-kas> xmms has the best plugin support..u can get anything to work on it...ape, mp4/aac,wav, crossfade etc
[08:55] <pavs> okay I will google it out
[08:55] <genii> chuck`_: As for the sciptalises and son om, no, it is in some sub conf file. apache2 separated them all out into places like /sites-enabled   and so on under the /etc/apache2 directory
[08:55] <peija-kas> even video plugin for XMMS done by Hyriand, it uses Mplayer for videos
[08:56] <hollywoodb> Joshooa: if you install "kubuntu-desktop" it will, if you do a full reinstall it won't unless you back up the proper stuff
[08:56] <chuck`_> genii: Still a 403 after changing the group
[08:56] <chuck`_> genii: did it on the dir itself as well
[08:56] <peija-kas> Joshooa best way is to install kde-desktop, then u can choose which desktop to use whne logging in
[08:56] <genii> chuck`_: OK. Let me find what file should hold the scriptaliases and so on. Back shortly
[08:57] <Joshooa> Okay, that's what I am doing now, I did it before and it didn't save my stuff and it broke a lot of programs.
[08:57] <peija-kas> Joshooa Change session/Kde from login window when kde-desktop is installed, apt-get install kde-desktop or thru synaptic
[08:57] <peija-kas> Joshooa wow, it broke something? never seen that happen
[08:57] <CaptainMorgan> that's whacked
[08:58] <peija-kas> Joshooa what od you mean, didnt save your stuff?
[08:58] <peija-kas> what happened?
[08:59] <peija-kas> KDE and Gnome and XFCE should be able to live on the same comp just fine :)
[08:59] <Joshooa> I already installed KDE
[08:59] <peija-kas> okies
[08:59] <genii> chuck`_: As a test cp the test.cgi file to /usr/lib/cgi-bin     then try to execute it with url something like localhost/cgi-bin/test.cgi
[08:59] <Joshooa> last time I did the apt-get thing, I went into KDE and all my network stuff was gone, it didn't recognize my card at all anymore, and no games would work and a lot of programs either
[08:59] <peija-kas> wow
[09:00] <peija-kas> well..thats weird
[09:00] <peija-kas> dont know what could cause that
[09:00] <Joshooa> Yeah
[09:00] <Joshooa> no clue
[09:00] <Joshooa> So hopefully this time it works!
[09:00] <peija-kas> all you did was install kde-desktop, u didnt remove anything?
[09:00] <peija-kas> like ubuntu-desktop
[09:01] <chuck`_> genii: I don't think I set up an alias for a cgi-bin, gimme a sec to do it
[09:01] <genii> chuck`_: No, don't.
[09:01] <peija-kas> ops, he left
[09:01] <chuck`_> genii: Well
[09:01] <genii> chuck`_: Jus cp the file there and try to run it by the url
[09:01] <chuck`_> genii: 404 of course
[09:02] <chuck`_> genii: Oh wait typo, heh
[09:02] <genii> chuck`_: There is some subconf file that I need to find the locale of. Am on a windoze box so have to look it up on web etc
[09:02] <VeganChick> haha, i have no idea what this means...
[09:02] <chuck`_> genii: Ah it worked
[09:02] <chuck`_> genii: So there's already a scriptalias defined for the cgi-bin somewhere
[09:02] <genii> chuck`_: Yes, good. So file syntax is good etc etc. Just need to find that subfile :) Gimme a minute
[09:03] <chuck`_> genii: isn't there a way to search the contents of all files in a dir with grep
[09:03] <genii> chuck`_: Yes, it is because of all the separating out in apache2   it pulls in a bunch of subconf files
[09:03] <chuck`_> genii: I can just do that for you ;o
[09:03] <Joshooa> Okay well I am in KDE now
[09:03] <Thinkpad_Guru> pavs, the linux winamp is beep media player. It even accepts winamp skins, and is indistinguishable from winamp
[09:04] <peija-kas> Joshooa and net works evidently :D
[09:04] <peija-kas> good
[09:04] <Joshooa> Can I get some help accessing my other hard drive though?
[09:04] <aric> is there a way, i can ghost a hard drive that has NTFS partition ?
[09:04] <genii> chuck`_: OK, gimme a pastebin of recursive subdirs/files in /etc/apache2
[09:04] <Frogzoo> chuck`_: grep blah *
[09:04] <peija-kas> Joshooa isnt it mounted by default..
[09:04] <nomego_> Hmm.. in what package is the madwifi kernel driver? "linux-restricted-modules-generic" ?
[09:04] <Mystology> i need help
[09:04] <Joshooa> peija-kas: no
[09:04] <peija-kas> did it mount in gnome
[09:04] <Mystology> what command to install cc in terminal?
[09:05] <Joshooa> peija-kas: If it was mounted by default, and i was asking for help, I should be shot
[09:05] <peija-kas> yea :/ sry
[09:05] <Frogzoo> Mystology: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[09:05] <infidel> !splash
[09:05] <ubotu> To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.
[09:05] <genii> Mystology: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[09:05] <Joshooa> peija-kas: Unless it's just being mounted and not showing on my desktop, cause it could do that :)
[09:05] <VeganChick> (gedit:17861): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager: Authentication Rejected, reason: None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.
[09:05] <peija-kas> Joshooa try if it shows in KDE file manager..
[09:05] <infidel> !usplash
[09:05] <ubotu> To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[09:05] <chuck`_> genii: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10149/
[09:05] <peija-kas> I havent used KDE in a long time :/
[09:06] <peija-kas> anybody else here?
[09:06] <peija-kas> Help Joshooa with drive not showing mounted in KDE
[09:06] <genii> chuck`_: OK gimme a minute
[09:06] <peija-kas> is there GUI tool in KDE for that
[09:06] <Joshooa> peija-kas:  hdb1 does
[09:06] <Mystology> [root@jiehad lib] # sudo apt-get install build-essential
[09:06] <Mystology> sudo: apt-get: command not found
[09:06] <Mystology> [root@jiehad lib] #
[09:06] <Joshooa> peija-kas: But not 2 or 3
[09:06] <chuck`_> K
[09:06] <Joshooa> peija-kas: I could be in Ubuntu
[09:07] <nomego_> how do I install packages that are "kept back" by apt?
[09:07] <hollywoodb> nomego_: with `upgrade` ? try with `dist-upgrade`
[09:07] <peija-kas> nomego_ usually theres a reason for them being kept back, like a missing dependency imho
[09:07] <peija-kas> not sure
[09:07] <nomego_> well, I think it's because they're "non-free2 ?
[09:07] <CaptainMorgan> !javac
[09:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about javac - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:08] <CaptainMorgan> how do I get javac.. it's not in synaptic
[09:08] <nomego_> CaptainMorgan: sun-java5-jre ?
[09:08] <genii> chuck please pastebin now /etc/apache2/sites-available/default contents           Sorry for all the hassle :)
[09:08] <genii> chuck`_: ^^
[09:09] <Mystology> anyone can help me to install cc in redhat?
[09:10] <genii> Mystology: Ubuntu is a debian-based distribution. For redhat/mandrake tech questions you should find a site specific for that
[09:10] <chuck`_> genii: Haha wow everything is in there
[09:11] <genii> chuck`_: Yeah that is the one we needed to find :)
[09:11] <chuck`_> genii: Why the hell did they move everything out of httpd.conf and into this?  Is this really more efficient?
[09:11] <Joshooa> How do I make GMail Notifier and Gaim open up on Ubuntu start up, but not on Kubuntu Start up/
[09:11] <genii> chuck`_: It's all the stuff that used to be in httpd.conf ...lag I forget the reasoning for the change but it's definitely annoying
[09:12] <VeganChick> Can someone help me figure out how to fix this? I got this error in terminal. "(gedit:17861): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager: Authentication Rejected, reason: None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed."
[09:12] <genii> chuck`_: Anyhow, this is the one you need to add the scriptalias entry to. There should be one already as an example for the main /usr/lib/cgi-bin to go by
[09:13] <chuck`_> genii: Yeah the script alias for the cgi-bin is there, I just added the Options +ExecCGI to the docroot and now it's functioning
[09:13] <chuck`_> genii: Cheers :] 
[09:13] <genii> chuck`_: Good :)
[09:14] <bohsain> whats the module/driver for this sound card: Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801DB/DBL/DBM (ICH4/ICH4-L/ICH4-M) AC'97 Audio Controller

[09:18] <VeganChick> it's after 4am...i should probably give up on Ubuntu for the night...err, morning?
[09:18] <Checkka> Where?
[09:19] <hollywoodb> Checkka: the task bar/window list... on the left edge of it there's a little "tab" type separator, right-click that and click preferences
[09:19] <dwa> Checkka, <super>u ungroups them
[09:19] <Checkka> i see
[09:19] <Checkka> yeah its on the seperator
[09:19] <Checkka> thanks
[09:20] <dwa> sorry, i misread
[09:20] <Checkka> gnite all
[09:21] <karel> evening all, has anyone figured out what broke wifi in the recent feisty update today?
[09:22] <shatrat> karel, probably kernel update with no corresponding linux-restricted-modules update.  try using the old kernel
[09:22] <karel> I did notice that one was held back
[09:23] <karel> thanks, I'll try that
[09:25] <InvisiblePinkUni> i am planning to encrypt my new hard drive, should I use encfs or truecrypt or are there other alternatives
[09:25] <InvisiblePinkUni> !encfs
[09:25] <ubotu> encfs: encrypted virtual filesystem. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.2.5-1-1 (edgy), package size 237 kB, installed size 1048 kB
[09:25] <InvisiblePinkUni> !truecrypt
[09:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about truecrypt - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:26] <Chai_Sangeen> hello everyone
[09:26] <marshcast> i need help - my faith is waining... :(
[09:26] <marshcast> hello Chai_Sangeen
[09:27] <elijah> can somebody help me with my concern in kubuntu?
[09:27] <InvisiblePinkUni> elijah: ask and see...
[09:27] <InvisiblePinkUni> or ask and wait
[09:28] <peija-kas> marshcast whats the problem
[09:28] <marshcast> If i have a setup, I lock down all the panels etc, I allow streaming (using pandora) and the use of openoffice - is there any reason why the machine should slow up & become unresponsive? - after all these are not great tasks...
[09:28] <elijah> ok, i tried installing wine and got this error: "make: *** No rule to make target `dlls/mciavi32/Makefile.in', needed by `dlls/mciavi32/Makefile'.  Stop.Compilation failed, aborting install. "
[09:28] <peija-kas> marshcast open a terminal, type "top"
[09:28] <peija-kas> see if any prgs have crashed, ie. what prg is taking all the cpu?
[09:29] <peija-kas> that would be near the top
[09:29] <peija-kas> in the list
[09:29] <shatrat> elijah, why not install from the repository? there is no need to compile your own
[09:29] <peija-kas> yeah repos have a pretty new Wine
[09:29] <elijah> how will i do that?
[09:29] <hollywoodb> elijah: http://winehq.org/site/download-deb
[09:29] <peija-kas> elijah sudo apt-get install wine
[09:29] <Helmi> is there something like sound-themes or anything for ubuntu (gnome)? lot's of sounds currently route to the system beep which isn't that entertaining ;)
[09:29] <elijah> you mean i'll add that to my repos?
[09:30] <peija-kas> elijah it IS in the repos
[09:30] <peija-kas> no need to add
[09:30] <marshcast> peija-kas: peija-kas: i can't ssh it at the moment - they havent started up yet - but top doesnt usually lok out of sorts... - although ps -A sometimes shows a massive amount of instances of ssh-scan - and quite a few getty's
[09:30] <peija-kas> but no prg is taking more cpu than should?
[09:30] <elijah> but i already tried fetching updates but i didn't get one for wine
[09:31] <Chai_Sangeen> can anyone help i just installed ubuntu edgy on my bro's laptop "fujitsu siemens amilo 2060" everything is working perfectly, it has the Intel 2200 so the driver is all set and compiled, Fn F10 to use the wireless but its not turning on.. altough the iwconfig scan command its detecting the networks. can anybody help? on my old laptop i used acerhk
[09:31] <peija-kas> Id think it might be the Pandora...maybe some sound issue...try streaming with VLC etc and see if it still happens?
[09:31] <peija-kas> VideoLAN
[09:32] <lisapc> does edy come with a firewall?
[09:32] <lisapc> edgy :P
[09:32] <peija-kas> marshcast i dunno what those ssh-scans are..gettys are normally present in large numbers on my system too
[09:32] <r4nge> i'm trying to "su root" because i'm locked out of sudo but root doesnt have a password and the password i used for "sudo" doesnt work
[09:32] <peija-kas> lisapc install Firestarter
[09:32] <peija-kas> its a gui for making changes to iptables, the builtin firewall
[09:33] <peija-kas> lisapc "sudo apt-get install firestarter" in terminal
[09:33] <lisapc> peija-kas, im setting up Azuerus, and need to allow port forwarding.  where is the firewall?
[09:33] <fetcher> getty's are for the text consoles (Ctrl+Alt+F1, etc...)  and normally don't consume any CPU
[09:33] <peija-kas> lisapc then just run Firestarter, and you can set the port forwarding etc and open ports there
[09:33] <elijah> peija-kas
[09:33] <peija-kas> yes
[09:34] <lisapc> peija-kas, does edgy come with a firewall installed that i need to do it too also?
[09:34] <nomego_> how can I tell why a package has been kept back or force it to install?
[09:34] <elijah> peija-kas,  i tried sudo apt-get but it says E: package wine has no installation candidate
[09:34] <lisapc> how d I load edgys firewall?
[09:34] <marshcast> peija-kas: like i say - i can't check at the moment - they're ofline. I'll check it out though. Dont think i can vlc - pandora havent got to that ---- there are pandora issues with flash - flash claims the script is causing probs - so you think it could be that... Am i correct in assuming that once the box is running nothing should hang it on my side?
[09:34] <nomego_> for a pentium 4, should I use generic or i386 ?
[09:34] <peija-kas> lisapc Edgy has the firewall, its called iptables...fFirestarter is just a graphical tool that lets you configure the firewall
[09:34] <peija-kas> its a lot easier with Firestarter than editing the text file :D
[09:35] <lisapc> peija-kas, i loaded firestarter, but cant find port forwaring anywwhere in it.  any guidance?
[09:35] <marshcast> fetcher - and ssh-scan? should there be 15 to 20 of them?
[09:35] <peija-kas> marshcast i would suspect its the pandora
[09:35] <peija-kas> lisapc did you run the setup wizard in Firestarter?
[09:35] <hollywoodb> elijah: http://winehq.org/site/download-deb
[09:35] <marshcast> peija-kas: thanks. That restores my faith.
[09:35] <lisapc> peija-kas, yes, firestarter is now instyalled
[09:35] <peija-kas> sec
[09:35] <lisapc> peija-kas, where in FS do I do port forwarding?
[09:35] <peija-kas> lisapc click on the Policy tab in Firestarter
[09:35] <DeL3e7> lol
[09:35] <HexDump> hi all
[09:36] <peija-kas> its there, on the bottom of Policy tab
[09:36] <DeL3e7> have u been counting down the days or somethin
[09:36] <fetcher> marshcast: dunno... I'm new to ubuntu, but have never seen that only other Linux machines before
[09:36] <peija-kas> lisapc on the top you can choose Editing:inbound/outbound policy
[09:36] <fetcher> s/only/on/
[09:36] <lisapc> peija-kas, ok! i cloicked in polixy. now?
[09:36] <lisapc> peija-kas, ok
[09:36] <peija-kas> lisapc just like you would on any windows firewall etc
[09:37] <Evil> hello
[09:37] <marshcast> peija-kas: given that - could I 'nice' epiphany - or would I have to 'nice' the flash9? (difficult as i cant see it running :/)
[09:37] <kdeedk> Evil hi
[09:37] <lisapc> peija-kas, do I right click and chose ADD RULE?
[09:37] <peija-kas> lisapc yes
[09:37] <Evil> can someone help me with a sound problem on feisty?..
[09:37] <peija-kas> marshcast yes, you could try that...
[09:37] <marshcast> lisapc: you got it... follow your nose ;)
[09:37] <hollywoodb> Evil: #ubuntu+1 for development versions like feisty
[09:37] <lisapc> peija-kas, it says IP, host or network
[09:38] <lisapc> peija-kas, it doesnt say port
[09:38] <marshcast> peija-kas: thanks - i'll give it a go... will come back & let you know when they're online
[09:38] <Evil> thanks
[09:38] <peija-kas> erm, lisapc, if youre just using azureus. its enough if you just open the port, you dont need to actually forward it
[09:38] <marshcast> Oh.. peija-kas - just another quick one.... what is linux doing when it takes ages to wake it from it's sleep? why's it take so long to start up?
[09:38] <peija-kas> just add Allow service, port (the azuresu port) i think
[09:38] <lisapc> peija-kas, how do I open the port in firestarter?
[09:39] <marshcast> you know?
[09:39] <peija-kas> lisapc its on the same page, Allow service, right click on it, Add rule
[09:39] <lisapc> peija-kas, I cant see Allow service anywhere
[09:39] <peija-kas> marshcast sleep doesnt work very well on all computers
[09:39] <peija-kas> lisapc the box above Forward service
[09:40] <peija-kas> on Policy tab
[09:40] <lisapc> peija-kas, ok found it!  do I chose utorrent as name?
[09:40] <lisapc> bittorrent actually
[09:40] <peija-kas> whatever u want, just put the port number u use in Azureus
[09:40] <peija-kas> Azureus doesnt use the default bittorent port that is 6881
[09:40] <peija-kas> check from Azu what it uses, and add that
[09:41] <peija-kas> then you can click Test in azureus and it tells u if it can connect fine
[09:41] <lisapc> peija-kas, ok done!
[09:41] <lisapc> peija-kas, but the download speed stayed the same
[09:41] <peija-kas> eeh
[09:42] <peija-kas> im sorry, i have to go vote in the parliamentary election now :/ ill see you guys later
[09:42] <lisapc> peija-kas, do I need to add port forwarding to my modem?
[09:42] <peija-kas> lisapc yes if your modem has a router
[09:42] <lisapc> peija-kas, u can run, but u cant hide
[09:42] <lisapc> peija-kas, :)
[09:42] <drummer_wilson> hi! could someone tell me how do i change my login manager theme? ive downloaded some pics
[09:42] <lisapc> peija-kas, what will that do?
[09:42] <lisapc> drummer_wilson, are the pics clean ones?
[09:42] <peija-kas> erm i cant know since i dont know what modem you have, or does it have a router :(
[09:43] <drummer_wilson> they are made for gdk login manager
[09:43] <lisapc> peija-kas, its a router
[09:43] <lisapc> peija-kas, what will forward porting do?
[09:43] <peija-kas> lisapc but azuresu wouldnt work at all imho if it had one
[09:43] <drummer_wilson> i got them from a site, gnome art or whatever
[09:43] <lisapc> peija-kas, azureus downloads now. so what will that achieve?
[09:43] <drummer_wilson> lisapc: u know how to do it?
[09:43] <hollywoodb> drummer_wilson: under System -> Administration -> Login Window , click "Add"
[09:43] <peija-kas> lisapc port forwarding means that when the router gets data in, it knows to send it to certain port on your computer (its IP)
[09:43] <lisapc> drummer_wilson, what does port forwarding achieve in the modem?
[09:44] <peija-kas> so it passes on the data to a certain port on your comp
[09:44] <peija-kas> forwarding
[09:44] <lisapc> peija-kas, but it works now when I download some things using Azureus
[09:44] <peija-kas> then it shoulndt be routing or it is set up..if it didnt, azureus could get no data at all
[09:44] <drummer_wilson> hollywoodb: thnx
[09:44] <peija-kas> now i gotta go vote :D
[09:45] <peija-kas> cya laters
[09:45] <lisapc> peija-kas, so I dont have to change my modem porting?
[09:45] <marshcast> lisapc - i think one of the thinmgs with the linux environment is that you have to investigate things for yourself - you have to try lots of different approaches and see if they work. A pen and paper is handy to keep track so you can put stuff back again, but it is the only way to learn...
[09:46] <marshcast> lisapc: and not be a pain in the bum ;)
[09:46] <marshcast> thanks peija-kas
[09:48] <marshcast> lisapc: you still there?
[09:48] <Xif> OK, in Ubuntu (Gnome), to paste the content of the + clipboard, I press Shift+Insert. How do I paste the contents of the * clipboard (besides Middle Click)?
[09:48] <huschi_> i've got a notebook with a radeon mobility x300. does anybody know how i can use an external monitor?
[09:48] <CaptainMorgan> !codecs

[09:48] <lisapc> marshall, yes?
[09:48] <marshcast> how'd it go?
[09:48] <lisapc> what?
[09:49] <hollywoodb> Xif: Ctrl+v perhaps?
[09:49] <marshcast> yr port forwarding.
[09:49] <Xif> hollywoodb: nope, that pastes the + buffer as well.
[09:49] <lisapc> marshall, well Azerus works now, so i guess I dont need to add it to modem
[09:50] <balrok> hello, i accidantly forgot my sudo pw.. how can i change it? (i already booted from another linux, chrooted.. but chpasswd doesn't work :/
[09:50] <DeL3e7> ktorrent works fine for me
[09:50] <DeL3e7> i got mad with azureus
[09:50] <hollywoodb> balrok: your sudo password is the same as your user password... if you need to change it, while chroot'd do `passwd <user>`
[09:51] <marshcast> lisapc - cool. - hope i didn't sound to patronising, but it's taken me a long time to realise that you gotta play around, and it is sound advice (i hope)...
[09:51] <lisapc> marshall, is 42kB/s slow for azuerus?
[09:51] <balrok> ah thank you =)
[09:51] <marshcast> lisapc: Also --- did you know that if you type in the first few letters of a name and then press TAB - it auto completes?
[09:52] <lisapc> im download a ubuntu image and azerus is giving 42kB/s\
[09:52] <DeL3e7> well.. like take for instance my dsl connection is 3Mbits down 700Kbits up converted to KB thats like 300+KB down and 80KBup
[09:52] <lisapc> marshall, ok ty for the lesson ;)
[09:52] <lisapc> DeL3e7, how fast is your azuerus?
[09:52] <DeL3e7> depends on the torrent
[09:52] <DeL3e7> if theres few seeders then of course it'll be awhile
[09:53] <DeL3e7> if at all
[09:53] <marshcast> lisa - it depends on lots and lots of things - your memory, your cpu speed, what else you have running, your connection speed... an endless list - but apparently torrents are not know to be fast transfer rates, but easy on servers
[09:53] <marshcast> lisapc: ^^^
[09:53] <twiztr> Hey everyone
[09:54] <twiztr> Anyone know of any like, bult package installers like EasyUbuntu?
[09:54] <DeL3e7> if theres a ton of seeders donating there up bandwidth it can easilly max your connection
[09:54] <marshcast> lisapc: i say the TAB thing 'cause me names not marshall!!! ;)
[09:54] <lisapc> marshall, ok ty
[09:54] <aev> Can is use this wonderfull resource to just ask away
[09:54] <lisapc> marshcast,  ;)
[09:54] <marshcast> but u can call me what you like :P
[09:54] <lisapc> lol
[09:54] <lisapc> :-)
[09:55] <HexDump> Im trying to access ubuntu from windows using putty. I can get access to the console level but not to the X. When I try to lo XWindows I get the error:
[09:55] <twiztr> aev: ofcourse
[09:55] <aev> w00t
[09:55] <aev> and it is still early
[09:55] <HexDump> connection broken :S, does anybody know wht is happeinbing?
[09:55] <marshcast> OK - i gotta get breakfast. good luck y'all... happy hackin' !D
[09:55] <aev> ive got this xorg.conf problem with nvidia twinview for which i cant seem to find an answer,
[09:55] <twiztr> HexDump: You sitting in front of the box?
[09:56] <r4nge> anyone know a workaround if i'm locked out of using sudo, i accidentely o-x sudo and now i cant chmod it back obviously so i have no sudo powers
[09:56] <HexDump> twiztr: yes... well I have my linux box without moniotr, on win now, but I can connect to it
[09:56] <genii> HexDump You are using X forwarding
[09:56] <Xif> How do I bind the X clipboard paste to something other than middle-click?
[09:56] <genii> ?
[09:56] <HexDump> genii: yes.
[09:56] <ShoyuRamen> aev, you need and x in windows
[09:56] <MikeC2> niffty
[09:57] <tkp> how can I find out which package provided a particular binary?
[09:57] <aev> i use the twinview, clone setting to use TV-out on a nvidia geforce card, however when i configure it to use say 1280CRT and 800 TV , the cloned display, the TV is a portion of the CRT space
[09:57] <fetcher> r4nge: you could boot off a CD, mount the filesystem and chmod it back
[09:57] <student_> how you
[09:57] <aev> id like it to be scaled down just the same fullscreen but 800
[09:57] <aev> is that possible ?
[09:57] <r4nge> fetcher: mount the filesystem?
[09:57] <genii> HexDump: Are you using some X client on windoze like xming?
[09:57] <HexDump> genii: nop. Is it needed?
[09:57] <genii> Yes
[09:58] <HexDump> genii: the tutorial I checked didnt say anything about it...
[09:58] <HexDump> genii: ohhh, , it should be incomplete
[09:58] <HexDump> genii: do you recomend xming?
[09:58] <fetcher> r4nge: to access files on the hard drive after booting the CD.  There's probably a HOWTO somewhere with the details
[09:58] <ShoyuRamen> aev, i'd just use x11/cygwin
[09:59] <genii> HexDump: Yes, or use another method called freenx
[09:59] <aev> the xorg.conf thing is in /dev/X11 thus i assume it IS X11,
[09:59] <aev> what is cygwin?
[09:59] <ShoyuRamen> sorry, not aev, but HexDump
[09:59] <genii> (for the entire remote desktop thing)
[09:59] <HexDump> ShoyuRamen: oh...
[09:59] <r4nge> ok, i dont have local access atm though :(
[09:59] <r4nge> was hoping for a remote fix but it appears su - doesnt work
[09:59] <aev> ShoyuRamen: lol
[09:59] <genii> ShoyuRamen: cygwin is such a hassle tho
[09:59] <bobslaede> anybody have evolution mail have their mail be doubled, so every email is there twice?
[10:00] <aev> i wanted to getout of this windows thing :)
[10:00] <fetcher> will an old Athlon XP2000 w/ 768MB RAM run OK with the Gnome desktop?  Or should I go with XFCE ?
[10:00] <fetcher> (xebuntu, the one for low-end systems)
[10:01] <genii> HexDump: X forwarding with putty/Xming is simplest setup dfor what you already have
[10:02] <HexDump> genii: thanks, I supposed that. With putty Im allways left in level 3? or should I start a x session directly?
[10:02] <Dralid> In the Linux/Ubuntu layout, which directories contain personal information, which contain settings and preferences, and which contain binaries and code that can easily be rebuilt?
[10:03] <genii> HexDump putty has a feature for enabling remote X over ssh
[10:03] <HexDump> genii: ok ok.
[10:03] <HexDump> genii: thnx
[10:03] <genii> HexDump I'll try to find you some reference :)
[10:04] <nospi> hey
[10:05] <nospi> im new to linux, just moved from Windows XP
[10:05] <InvisiblePinkUni> nospi: welcome to linux :)
[10:05] <nospi> it's so different to windows :p
[10:05] <nospi> i need to stop being lazy
[10:05] <Industrial> Its 13 3 7 today!
[10:06] <nospi> hahaah :p
[10:06] <nospi> cool
[10:06] <nospi> leet day.
[10:06] <InvisiblePinkUni> nospi: keep reading man pages
[10:07] <nospi> which ones though? I sort of don't know where to start
[10:07] <nospi> i am hopeless at compiling programs
[10:07] <InvisiblePinkUni> man man
[10:07] <nospi> i tried to install ndiswrapper through the terminal... didn't work.
[10:07] <nospi> ok thanks
[10:07] <InvisiblePinkUni> small steps
[10:07] <r4nge> whats the proper way to use "su" instead of sudo
[10:07] <Madpilot> nospi, man intro
[10:07] <Madpilot> ubotu, cli | nospi
[10:07] <ubotu> nospi: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Manuals: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[10:08] <nospi> woot
[10:08] <nospi> i got wine working anyhow
[10:08] <arooni> how can i start a new process and supress output to my terminal?  which option do i want (besides the & one)
[10:08] <fetcher> r4nge: 'su' by itself, enter, then supply your password and you should reach a root shell prompt
[10:08] <nospi> just installed winrar as a test
[10:09] <ardchoille> fetcher: That is not recommended.
[10:09] <fetcher> ardchoille: he broke his sudo :/
[10:09] <genii> HexDump: Bottom of this page has old instructions but very simple http://www.techsential.com/2006/04/
[10:09] <r4nge> fetcher: didnt work, i used the same password that works for sudo (i'm the initial user)
[10:09] <fetcher> r4nge: after doing the chmod, type exit (or control-D) to get back to normal privileges
[10:10] <ardchoille> fetcher: That wouldn't work anyway for two reasons. 1) the root account is locked, 2) su expects the root password, not the user password.
[10:10] <pyrohotdog> Anyone know a way to configure a USB game pad as a sort of...media remote? For say, VLC?
[10:10] <drummer_wilson> whats the minimul hdd space for ubuntu?
[10:10] <fetcher> ardchoille: like Mac OS X, then, hmm...
[10:10] <drummer_wilson> minimum*
[10:10] <genii> HexDump: Scroll down to where "xming" part begins
[10:10] <r4nge> ardchoille: and unfortunately i never set a root password
[10:11] <ardchoille> r4nge: That means your root account is locked.
[10:11] <ardchoille> r4nge: You can use recover mode.
[10:11] <hume> hi...what type do I set a partition to in cfdisk, when I am going to format it to reiserfs?
[10:11] <fetcher> r4nge: you'll probably have to boot from the CD, then...
[10:11] <r4nge> i'm on a remote machine
[10:11] <r4nge> :/
[10:11] <kdeedk> If i have 4 IDE , should it be hda1, hda2, hda3, hda4 or hda, hdb, hdc, hdd?
[10:12] <ardchoille> kdeedk: The latter
[10:12] <anarchron> hi guys
[10:12] <ardchoille> kdeedk: hda1 and hda2 would be the first and second partitions on hda
[10:12] <r4nge> so no point in me playing around with su anymore?
[10:12] <HexDump> genii: thanks a lot man
[10:13] <anarchron> how do I reduce the startup time if I have a wireless card and I don't want /etc/init.d/networking to handle its wpa?
[10:13] <ardchoille> r4nge: No point really
[10:13] <genii> HexDump: np :) report back if you still have probs. Make sure sshd_config file has X forwarding enabled also
[10:14] <ardchoille> r4nge: Just curious, how did you break sudo?
[10:15] <kdeedk> ardchoille hda1 is primary,master .. hda2 is primary,slave .. right?
[10:15] <DeL3e7> i still like to "sudo su"
[10:15] <hume> anyone knows what type I set the filesystem to in cfdisk, when I am planning on formatting it to reiserfs?
[10:15] <fetcher> kdeedk: no.  hda = primary master, hdb = primary slave
[10:16] <r4nge> ardchoille: o-x
[10:16] <DeL3e7> hume doesnt matter, only matters what you format it as via mkfs
[10:16] <fetcher> kdeedk: numbers after the letter are just for partitions on the disk
[10:16] <_StefanS_> does the the stock ubuntu kernel support more than 2gigs of memory ?
[10:16] <ardchoille> kdeedk: no, hda1 is the first partitions on hda, hda2 is the second partition on hda. hda is the primary master, hdb is the primary slave
[10:16] <nospi> im having trouble with the music player
[10:16] <r4nge> so now i can use sudo because i cant execute it :/
[10:17] <ardchoille> r4nge: Ah, yeah
[10:17] <nospi> my hard drive is partitioned with XP and Linux, and i have all my mp3's i got on the XP partition
[10:17] <nospi> i want to use them with the linux player
[10:17] <r4nge> only the owner (root) can but that needs sudo
[10:17] <r4nge> heh
[10:17] <nospi> but when i try and import the folder into the music player it doesn't let me
[10:17] <DeL3e7> well mine says i have 1GB of ram wich i do have if it didnt have large ram support then i wouldnt see 1G
[10:17] <kdeedk> hdc = secondary,master .. hdd = secondary,slave .. right?
[10:17] <ardchoille> kdeedk: Yes
[10:18] <DeL3e7> dmesg |grep hd always helps
[10:18] <fetcher> kdeedk: yup, and remember that some of those could be CD/DVD drives
[10:18] <red4lpha> whats the syntax to run an app under root user?
[10:18] <DeL3e7> sudo?
[10:18] <velle> I have a serious prob with my ubuntu machine (im on a different one now). It seems that everything I want to do as root is ignored. E.g. "sudo dhclient eth0", it does not print any output and the command is finished instantly. If I run it without sudo it works as it should.
[10:18] <ardchoille> red4lpha: for cli apps, sudo appname; for gui apps gksudo appname
[10:19] <red4lpha> ty
[10:19] <velle> It happened sometime last night when I was trying to setup sshfs, but I am not sure exactly what triggered it. I have ofcourse tried rebooting, but no change.
[10:20] <ardchoille> red4lpha: You're welcome :)
[10:21] <nospi> anybody know what could be wrong?
[10:21] <snotch> nospi, that's probably permissions problems. Run the music program as root and see if it works
[10:21] <nospi> do i need to install mp3 codecs or something?
[10:21] <nospi> how do i run a GUI program as root?
[10:21] <nospi> just login as root?
[10:21] <snotch> nospi, ah, and do "apt-get install mpg321"
[10:21] <Zta> So.. I follow https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/serverguide/C/NTP.html and install the ntpd with sudo apt-get install ntp-simple.   But I don't get an /etc/ntp.conf like I should.  Why?
[10:21] <ardchoille> nospi: gksudo appname
[10:21] <snotch> nospi, that'll give you the mp3 librarys
[10:22] <nospi> ok
[10:22] <nospi> thanks
[10:22] <ardchoille> nospi: xmms plays mp3's out of the box
[10:22] <kdeedk> amaroK plays mp3 too
[10:22] <snotch> nospi, just try the root thing once, you shouldn't run it as root all the time
[10:22] <nospi> i installed XMMS through the add/remove programs but it's not on the accessories list
[10:23] <CheshireViking> is there a way of using ubuntu to access a samsung d900 mobile phone - not for editing phone data, just to be able to get photo's off it & add mp3's etc  via a usb cable?
[10:23] <ardchoille> nospi: You can't log in as root, the root account is locked on Ubuntu.
[10:23] <nospi> i unlocked it :p
[10:23] <ardchoille> nospi: xmms is under the Sound & Video menu
[10:24] <ardchoille> nospi: It is a bad idea to unlock root.
[10:24] <nospi> i know
[10:24] <nospi> i didn't know what i was doing
[10:24] <nospi> i'll lock it again
[10:24] <nospi> ok nevermind, must've unticked XMMS accidentally
[10:24] <velle> I have a serious prob with my ubuntu machine (im on a different one now). It seems that everything I want to do as root is ignored. E.g. "sudo dhclient eth0", it does not print any output and the command is finished instantly. If I run it without sudo it works as it should.

[10:26] <karim> hi
[10:26] <velle> Does anybody know have suggestions, or else please tell me where to look for help.
[10:26] <karim> when I goes back from hibernation, I can't enter the password, the keyboard seems to not enter keys
[10:26] <lisapc> can I change what happens when I close my lid on my laptop?
[10:26] <karim> a+lt+backspace works though
[10:26] <nospi> how do i lock the root account again? sorry :S
[10:27] <Rooy> gstreamer apps (totem, rhythm box, exaile) needs gstreamer-plugin-ugly to plays mp3
[10:27] <nospi> nevermind
[10:27] <genii> nospi passwd -l root
[10:27] <genii> sudo of course
[10:28] <lisapc> can I change what happens when I close my lid on my laptop?
[10:28] <genii> HexDump: Still awake?
[10:29] <dani_> hi, I have feisty on a new macbook pro and with latest kernels keyboard and USB gets unresponsive after the boot... I can't find any published solution. Is it a known problem?
[10:29] <pyrohotdog> How do I copy directories from a remote server in smbclient?
[10:29] <nospi> i didnt think feisty was out yet?
[10:30] <genii> dani_ You should ask in #ubuntu+1 since feisty is not release yet
[10:30] <dani_> oh! ok, I didn't know about that channel :) thankyou
[10:30] <genii> dani_ np
[10:31] <pavs>  am using edgy how do i upgrade to fiesty? if I upgrade do i loose my settings for edgy?
[10:31] <CheshireViking> !feisty > dani_
[10:31] <funpop> if linux-restricted-modules is not installed, but fglrx is used as driver, what will happen ?
[10:31] <Rooy> !feisty | pavs
[10:31] <ubotu> pavs: The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn"), it should be released in April 2007. At the moment it is alpha.

[10:31] <karim> when I goes back from hibernation, I can't enter the password, the keyboard seems to not enter keys
[10:32] <dani_> ok ok, I'll change my default channel :)
[10:32] <Zta> So.. I follow https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/serverguide/C/NTP.html and install the ntpd with sudo apt-get install ntp-simple.   But I don't get an /etc/ntp.conf like I should.  Why?

[10:33] <pavs> genii thnx
[10:33] <genii> pavs np
[10:34] <lisapc> when my laptop lid is closed, its set for BLANK.  Will this still keep downloads active?
[10:35] <nospi> hey
[10:35] <nospi> i installed that mpg321 plugin
[10:35] <nospi> im getting a message in the music player when i try to import
[10:36] <nospi> The GStreamer plugins to decode "Unknown" files cannot be found
[10:36] <nospi> i really want to get my music working, i have both .WMA and .MP3 files
[10:36] <nospi> should i just install media player with WINE?
[10:37] <green> nospi ru tying to listen to a stream link station?
[10:37] <nospi> no
[10:37] <nospi> wait, i think i've fixed it
[10:37] <Zta> apt-get install xmms  usually works
[10:37] <genii> nospi Did you follow trhe instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  ?
[10:38] <kekexili> #who
[10:38] <nospi> yes
[10:38] <nospi> it's fixed
[10:38] <green> i had to convert the mp3's to ogg to burn them but other than that the wma's wont play
[10:38] <nospi> i rebooted and imported, but it still gave me the error
[10:38] <nospi> after a few minutes it worked though
[10:39] <dxsoma> is it ntfs-3g safe?
[10:39] <HexDump> genii: just one more question. To connect to the current xwindows session existing in the linux box (Like a were in front of the box), can be only done throgh vnc? I hope putty could do something like this, but I can only execute stand alone apps :S, is there anyway to see the desktop?
[10:39] <HexDump> (perhaps this is a dumb question)
[10:42] <genii> HexDump: For xforwarding, usually only the specific apps get forwarded. You can set gdm to be forwarded also tho, so you can use it to login as whatever user. But for an existing session, you need to either run come rdc or vnc to enter it. There is a "shared desktop" option for X someplace but I forget now how to configure/find it
[10:43] <Shadowpillar> !wifi
[10:43] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[10:43] <HexDump> genii: gonna try to find something about it :)

[10:43] <genii> HexDump  OK :) I'll look a bit too
[10:43] <HexDump> genii: thnx mate
[10:46] <KenSentMe> Does anyone here use Democracy Player on Edgy? Mine sometimes reacts very slow on mouse clicks etc. Does that occur to others too?
[10:47] <nospi> whats the best Instant Messager for linux?
[10:47] <nospi> i used to use MSN
[10:47] <KenSentMe> nospi, gaim, i think
[10:47] <nospi> no aim, yim, icq or anything
[10:47] <nospi> ok thanks
[10:47] <nospi> not Trillian?
[10:47] <nospi> i heard that it's good
[10:47] <KenSentMe> nospi, only it doesn't support webcam
[10:47] <nospi> oh ok
[10:47] <KenSentMe> nospi, is there a linux client for trillian?
[10:48] <mo^> [mo^()]  e easier to handle. but c is, while well-coded, faster than c++. right?
[10:48] <mo^> damn
[10:49] <nospi> not sure
[10:49] <nospi> how do i reply to someone?
[10:49] <ardchoille> nospi: Type their nick and then the reply
[10:49] <KenSentMe> nospi, just type the first letters of the nick and hit tab to complete the name
[10:50] <kaptengu> why doesn't greasemonkey work in ubuntu?
[10:50] <nospi> KenSentMe, thanks
[10:50] <CheshireViking> nospi, i used to use Gaim and switched over to aMSN because I found that Gaim wasn't showing my online/busy/away status to msn users
[10:50] <nospi> ardchoille, cool :)
[10:50] <genii> HexDump: What dist are you using? Edgy Dapper etc
[10:50] <mo^> a friend and I want to try to create an own web browser. what do you think is better to use: c or c++? c++ might be easier to use, but c is, while well-coded, faster than c++. right?
[10:50] <nospi> CheshireViking, does gaim show your display pic to other msn userS?
[10:50] <nospi> CheshireViking, i couldn't see my friend's just then
[10:51] <KenSentMe> nospi, it works here
[10:51] <predaeus> mo^: maybe D is now an option.
[10:51] <nospi> KenSentMe, it is enabled by default?
[10:51] <kaptengu> kinda hard to make yourself heard in here
[10:51] <nospi> KenSentMe, also gaim keeps crashing
[10:51] <CheshireViking> nospi, i don't know about the display pictures, its something i've never tried
[10:52] <KenSentMe> nospi, hmm, that doesn't happen here. What version of Ubuntu do you use?
[10:52] <pdamer> Hi, I just installed xubuntu on an hp laptop and I am getting random system freezes,  Any hints as what to look for?
[10:52] <nospi> CheshireViking, i know that trillian does, but i don't know if you can get it for linux
[10:52] <mo^> predaeus: but you cannot find much help in D-related questions...
[10:53] <predaeus> mo^: there is a #D channel here. I have not really coded D yet. Only the hello world stuff. But it seems to be very nice. Best of C, Java, C++ and other languages together.
[10:53] <nospi> anyone know where i can get more themes? or a program like StyleXP or Windowblinds for linux?
[10:54] <nospi> D?
[10:54] <predaeus> mo^: and you can use all the C libs I think. Like GTK for GUI or so.
[10:54] <nospi> predaeus, never heard of it, is it a new language?
[10:54] <ardchoille> nospi: http://www.gnome-look.org  http://art.gnome.org
[10:54] <nospi> ardchoille, thanks :)
[10:54] <nospi> ardchoille, i should stop asking, because im googling at the same time lol
[10:54] <predaeus> nospi: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D_%28programming_language%29
[10:55] <ardchoille> nospi: No, asking questions is what this channel is all about. Also, others may learn from your questions :)
[10:55] <CheshireViking> nospi, i've got a feeling that gaim is more like windows messenger, while aMSN logs in as though its a windows live messenger equivalent
[10:55] <genii> HexDump Still awake? If so i have some thoughts for you
[10:55] <mo^> predaeus: thanks.
[10:55] <mo^> gonna have a look at it.
[10:55] <predaeus> you are welcome
[10:55] <pdamer> Any guesses as to where to find the cause of random hard locks?
[10:56] <dusty-work> Hey guys, I have a linux workstation in work and we have a windows fileserver with a couple of shared drives.  I need to access these drives from my linux workstation - which is the best/easiest way to do this?
[10:56] <genii> dusty-work: smbclient
[10:56] <nospi> CheshireViking, cool, i'll get aMSN then
[10:56] <dusty-work> genii, thanks
[10:56] <genii> dusty-work: np
[10:57] <Slart> dusty-work: samba would be my first guess
[10:57] <snowman3388> does anyone know if windows xp writes to the master boot record?
[10:57] <snowman3388> or is it somewhere else
[10:57] <CheshireViking> nospi, i've seen a suggestion on forum that kopete is supposed to be similar to trillian - but i've not used trillian for a long time & only gave kopete a very quick look
[10:57] <genii> snowman3388: It writes there when you install it, yes
[10:57] <snowman3388> genii, oh... I think I overwrote it
[10:58] <genii> !grub |snowman
[10:58] <ubotu> snowman: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[10:59] <genii> ^^ snowman3388
[10:59] <snowman3388> genii, I'm reading thanks!
[10:59] <genii> snowman3388: np
[10:59] <lisapc> whats it mean when azareus says seeds 4 (26) ?
[11:00] <mneptok> snowman3388: XP overwrites your MBR and never tells you or gives you a choice. it's a "feature."
[11:00] <bluffer_> isnt 3com 3c905c-tx network supported in dapper or edgy ?
[11:00] <ardchoille> mneptok: lol
[11:00] <bluffer_> network card
[11:00] <genii> lisapc: There are 4 machines with full download you are directly interacting with out of a possible total of 26
[11:00] <HexDump> genii: tellme mate... what's up on your mind?
[11:00] <bluffer_> while i install using alternate-cd it cant find the ethernetcard
[11:01] <mneptok> bluffer_: what flavor of NIC?
[11:01] <genii> HexDump I think your best bet is to use x1vnc on the server box then the windoze freenx client
[11:01] <snowman3388> mneptok, I had xp on there first then I installed ubuntu and it was working fine but I did something and I can't figure out how to boot windows from grub, I'm not really sure what I did
[11:01] <genii> x11vnc
[11:01] <HexDump> let's check it
[11:02] <bluffer_> dunno tell me how to find it ( iknow my host works with that card, dsl (damn small linux can find hat card)
[11:02] <schmakk> hey guys. i have some problems getting both my monitors to work with the latest ati driver. seems to be two desktops at the login but goes into clone/mirror after login. help. :)
[11:03] <pdamer> Any one experience freezes in Edgy?
[11:03] <bluffer_> mneptok two lines above
[11:03] <snowman3388> pdamer, I do all the times, it just freezes and I have to restart
[11:03] <snowman3388> by times I really mean time
[11:03] <HexDump> genii: but it is samethinkg as tightvnc, doesnt it? just the guy created a "new ver" of vnc to let him build it on solaris (this is what I got from the homepage)
[11:04] <lisapc> genii, where does the  numnber (26) come from?
[11:04] <pdamer> snowman3388,  I have been trying to track down a cause but I can't find much
[11:04] <genii> HexDump: x11vnc reference page http://www.karlrunge.com/x11vnc/
[11:04] <snowman3388> pdamer, I'm fairly new to linux so I can't help you really, sorry
[11:05] <genii> HexDump: Basically you can share the desktop that someone else is already logged into/on and is using their mouse/monitor etc
[11:05] <Marlun> If I install Ubuntu Dapper can I upgrade to Feisty now using apt-get dist-upgrade?
[11:05] <predaeus> pdamer: do the logs show anything?
[11:06] <pdamer> predaeus, nothing that I have found yet
[11:06] <Rooy> Marlun: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FeistyUpgrades
[11:06] <genii> lisapc The torrent tracking url
[11:07] <pdamer> I have to do a hard reboot to get the system back so that probably looses whatever error message
[11:07] <snowman3388> can grub be a substitute for the windows bootloader?
[11:07] <Marlun> Rooy: thanks =)
[11:07] <pyrohotdog> I just installed a pci firewire card...and have an external hd connected...how do I mount it...?
[11:07] <mneptok> snowman3388: yes
[11:07] <Rooy> Marlun: you're welcome here
[11:08] <bluffer_> also what is the differnce between texmode install and oem install i cant get edgy to install at all with dapper ifi choose textinstall i get an install which gives me a shell (user@ubuntu~$) no x no graphics should i do oem install ?
[11:08] <nospi> how do i install a new login thingy majig off art.gnome.com?
[11:08] <Marlun> This is because the partitioner in the Feisty CDs doesn't seem to work with my computer, I get a red screen telling me "no root file system is defined" but the options I can choose from in the partition menu is all wrong.
[11:09] <nospi> nevermind
[11:09] <nospi> worked it out
[11:09] <pyrohotdog> nospi download it, drap it onto the theme window.
[11:09] <pyrohotdog> *drag
[11:09] <snowman3388> mneptok, I don't undertand what's wrong then, windows is on hd0 and linux is hd1 yet for some reason in grub linux boots from 0,0 I don't understand
[11:09] <nospi> yeah, i was droppin it onto the desktop theme one
[11:09] <nospi> not the login window one
[11:09] <genii> Marlun Directly from Dapper is problemmatic. If you must keep all your settings etc etc then first do an upgrade to Edgy then to Feisty
[11:09] <nospi> is there a way to change the whole taskbar thing? it's too bright
[11:09] <nanda_> I need to install the latest ffmpeg, all they have is a svn version, what to I do to install that?
[11:09] <ardchoille> nospi: System -> Administration -> Login Window  use the button that says "Add"
[11:10] <mneptok> snowman3388: can you boot to Linux?
[11:10] <Marlun> genii: I want to do a clean install but the feisty cds are not working.
[11:10] <nospi> ardchoille, thanks, i got it :p
[11:10] <snowman3388> mneptok, yeah linux works fine
[11:10] <ardchoille> nospi: Sorry, I type slow
[11:10] <nospi> ardchoille, no problem :)
[11:10] <mneptok> Marlun: if you aren't a dieveloper, avoid Feisty
[11:10] <genii> Marlun Well, if you have lots of time to kill you can do the 2 stage upgrade
[11:10] <mneptok> snowman3388: you want to look into grub-reinstall
[11:10] <nospi> ewwwww
[11:10] <nospi> i just ran aMSN
[11:10] <nospi> the fonts are all retarded
[11:11] <ardchoille> nospi: lol
[11:11] <nospi> the same with XMMS
[11:11] <mneptok> snowman3388: sorry, you want to look into grub-install
[11:11] <snowman3388> mneptok, thanks I'll see what I can find
[11:11] <ardchoille> nospi: You can change the font in xmms
[11:11] <genii> HexDump: If you want more of a complete remote x server type solution I'd highly recommend a freenx setup on both sides btw
[11:11] <CheshireViking> nospi, lol
[11:12] <bluffer_> can some one tell will compiling this and doing insmod whatever work ? http://support.3com.com/infodeli/tools/nic/linuxdownload.htm
[11:12] <genii> very tolerable speeds
[11:12] <lisapc> genii, how come something its slow like dial up?
[11:12] <lisapc> genii, how come sometimes its slow like dial up?
[11:12] <pyrohotdog> I just installed a pci firewire card...and have an external hd connected...how do I mount it...?
[11:12] <genii> lisapc I would suggest because it's dialup
[11:13] <lisapc> genii, ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!
[11:13] <genii> lisapc You mean the download speeds from the torrent client are slow?
[11:13] <JonasNZ> ARGH I FUCKING HATE MAKING PAN WORK WITH MY PHONE
[11:13] <JonasNZ> night all
[11:13] <koper> I'm using ubuntu edgy 64 and installed azureus via synaptic but it won't start. nothing happens.
[11:14] <nospi> i can't use aMSN if it looks like that
[11:14] <ardchoille> !ohmy | JonasNZ
[11:14] <ubotu> JonasNZ: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[11:14] <genii> nospi I recommend GAIM
[11:14] <koper> i recommend using jabber instead of msn :)
[11:14] <Force1>  /close
[11:15] <nospi> genii, it kept crashing on me though
[11:15] <genii> lisapc anyhow, slow speeds with torrents are normal. sometimes they trickle in over weeks even. you can only get the data as fast as the other machines can feed them to you or sometimes they have their bandwidth out set to only be a certain speed for torrents so it does not hog all their connection.
[11:16] <nelly> nospi: Look here ' http://www.mattvanstone.com/2007/01/give_amsn_antialiased_fonts_in.html '
[11:16] <nospi> nelly, thanks
[11:16] <genii> nospi Did you try 1.5 or the beta 2 version?
[11:16] <nelly> nospi: np
[11:16] <nospi> the one that came with ubuntu 6.10
[11:17] <genii> !info gaim edgy
[11:17] <koper> I've installed both azureus and azureus-gcj on ubuntu edhgy 64 now and it still doesn't start. any ideas?
[11:17] <ubotu> gaim: multi-protocol instant messaging client. In component main, is optional. Version 1:2.0.0+beta3.1-1ubuntu9 (edgy), package size 1311 kB, installed size 3712 kB
[11:17] <nospi> 2
[11:17] <nospi> i suppose
[11:17] <nospi> how can i check?
[11:17] <genii> so version  2 beta
[11:17] <nospi> package manager?
[11:17] <ardchoille> nospi: See ubotu reply above
[11:18] <genii> nospi It just said above, version 2.0.0+beta3.1
[11:18] <nospi> ardchoille, thanks :P missed that
[11:18] <nospi> genii, ok, is that why it's crashing? maybe i need 1.5
[11:18] <nospi> genii,  if 2 is only beta
[11:18] <genii> nospi I think you can install the previous if you enable backports
[11:19] <Rooy> nospi: try running from a  terminal to see what's wrong
[11:19] <nospi> Rooy, ok. gksudo?
[11:19] <Rooy> no, just run gaim as normal you
[11:19] <ardchoille> nospi: for gaim? no gksudo
[11:19] <nospi> ardchoille,  im confused with linux lol
[11:20] <nospi> especially coming from windows where everything is handed to you and nothing is configurable
[11:20] <ardchoille> nospi: sudo/gksudo should be reserved to admin apps/tasks only, most of the time.
[11:20] <bluffer_> oops it need all the linux source or some thing it seems isnt compiling
[11:20] <nospi> ardchoille, ok
[11:20] <funpop> what are .desktop files ?
[11:21] <ardchoille> bluffer_: What are you trying to compile?
[11:21] <nospi> how do i run gaim from terminal?
[11:21] <lisapc> genii, trickle in over weeks?  what u mean?
[11:21] <nelly> nospi: type gaim into the terminal
[11:22] <ardchoille> nospi: type: gaim
[11:22] <nospi> oooh lol yeah
[11:22] <lisapc> genii, you mean it may take weeks to download 700MB?
[11:22] <Flonares> hi there
[11:22] <nospi> you don't need to be in it's dir in linux do you :p
[11:22] <ardchoille> nospi: no, it should be in your $PATH
[11:22] <nospi> ardchoille,  hehehe im dumb :p
[11:22] <Flonares> Wassup?
[11:22] <ardchoille> nospi: No you're not, you're just learning.. we all had to do that at one time.
[11:23] <Flonares> I made this fine trick in UBUNTU
[11:23] <genii> lisapc I mean if you are for instance downloading a dvd iso file of 4.7 gigabytes from only 1 seed and very few peers at perhaps 10K/second it could take a while. Especially if the machines feeding the torrent are not powered on at all hours.
[11:23] <Flonares> i now have KDE e GNOME sessions
[11:23] <Flonares> :)
[11:23] <Flonares> it's quite nice to change flavours once in a while
[11:23] <Flonares> :D
[11:23] <ardchoille> Flonares: :)
[11:23] <Flonares> But i'm having great problems with compiz and specially
[11:24] <Flonares> that great fork that is beryl
[11:24] <ardchoille> Flonares: You should probably /join #ubuntu-effects
[11:24] <bluffer_> ardchoille (both dapper and edgy cant find my 3com 3c905c-tx network card (it says no ethernetcard found while looking for network hardware in alternate install cd) i was googling and i found 3com offering unsuported sources here http://support.3com.com/infodeli/tools/nic/linuxdownload.htm  was trying to compile that and try my luck)
[11:25] <nospi> whats the default interface for ubuntu?
[11:25] <nospi> KDE?
[11:25] <Flonares> did anyone ever compile ubuntu from scratch
[11:25] <Flonares> nospi, gnome
[11:25] <nospi> Flonares, oh ok
[11:25] <Rooy> nospi: it's GNOME for ubuntu and KDE for Kubuntu
[11:25] <genii> lisapc The torrent client will just pick up where it left off every time you login until the download is complete. Sometimes it takes a long time to get a file that not many ppl are feeding and so on or if your machine is only on for limited times
[11:25] <ardchoille> bluffer_: If you're going to be compiling software: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[11:25] <nospi> Rooy, what's the difference?
[11:25] <lisapc> genii, ok
[11:25] <bluffer_> no i was compiling it in suse via putty oin a shell somewhere
[11:26] <Rooy> nospi: Flonares has more exp than me with KDE for sure
[11:26] <nospi> Rooy, ok :)
[11:26] <Flonares> I like KDE a lot more than gnome
[11:26] <ardchoille> nospi: You can, however, install kde with: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[11:26] <jo__> hello community
[11:26] <ardchoille> hi jo__
[11:26] <jo__> ardchoille: good morning
[11:26] <Flonares> Rooy, Tovarlds like KDE more than GNOME, did you know?
[11:27] <Flonares> jo__
[11:27] <nospi> ardchoille, how do you remember the links to packages?
[11:27] <Flonares> ] ] [[
[11:27] <lisapc> genii, does adding Azareus port to modem port forwading speed up the dl speed?
, i used aptitude
[11:27] <Flonares> :)
[11:28] <Flonares> it's a lot simpler
[11:28] <Flonares> aptitude install KDE
[11:28] <Rooy> Flonares: i read that on DesktopLinux.com, sure some people like alot of configurations at hand </ot>
[11:28] <ardchoille> nospi: What do you mean by 'links'?
[11:28] <ardchoille> nospi: Most of the time, a package name will be very similar, if not the same, as the app name. You can just type the app name in a terminal to launch that app. Is that what you mean?
[11:28] <Flonares> and KDE will install as a SESSION in UBUNTU
[11:28] <Flonares> *just kde*
[11:28] <Flonares> not all the kernel :P
[11:29] <Flonares> I just wanted to use a diferent WManager
[11:29] <Flonares> :)
[11:29] <Flonares> not to reinstall the kernel
[11:29] <Flonares> :)
[11:29] <Rooy> nospi: or look in the package's properties --> installed filesand see what does it put in /usr/bin
[11:29] <genii> lisapc If you forward the torrent ports on your modem to the internal machine it will help a little, especially with the tracking sites.\
[11:29] <ardchoille> Flonares: You can change window managers in gnome, I use openbox as my wm in gnome.
[11:29] <Flonares> :)
[11:29] <Flonares> openbox is beautiful
[11:29] <nospi> ardchoille, yeah thats what i mean
[11:29] <lisapc> genii,  so I should add the port Azuerues is using to my modem?
[11:29] <Flonares> I know.
[11:29] <nospi> Rooy,  oh right
[11:30] <nelly> lisapc: yes
[11:30] <lisapc> genii, when its not added to my modem. how does it slow it down?
[11:30] <nospi> ardchoille, you just get the apt-get link thing so quick
[11:30] <Flonares> ardchoille, and OpenStep?
[11:30] <genii> lisapc There is a standard range of torrent ports. Let me find them
[11:30] <Flonares> :(
[11:30] <marshcast> hey gents - i think i just been hacked - can anyone help me? --- there's was a process running called pscan - it was being used by a user account the was set up but has never really been used. pscan shows as being a C++ app to scan the server ports. How do I lock this out?
[11:30] <Flonares> I cry when I see openstep
[11:30] <Flonares> is soooooooo beautiful :(
[11:30] <Flonares> everytime i look to my SGI's
[11:30] <marshcast> is this just a side effect of using ssh?
[11:30] <Flonares> I cry.
[11:31] <marshcast> ^^^ (& ladies *blush*)
[11:31] <ardchoille> nospi: I have been using Linux since 2001
[11:31] <ardchoille> Flonares: openstep? no
[11:31] <nospi> ardchoille, oh ok
[11:31] <lisapc> genii,  what u mean standard range of torrent ports?
[11:31] <Rooy> Flonares: downloading right now, together with the themes
[11:31] <zipper> Anyone has any experience with switching DSTS (acpi) tables? or could give me a hint on where one could find a guide for it?
[11:31] <bluffer_> so  no readymade answers for me :) i see lots of posts regarding 3com in the web forums one of them also points to the link i just posted
[11:31] <lisapc> genii,  does chosing a different port speed up downloads?
[11:31] <nospi> ardchoille, ok, quick question :p is there a hotkey to switch workspaces?
[11:31] <Flonares> lisapc, no
[11:32] <lisapc> Flonares, so it matters not what port I use?
[11:32] <Rooy> nospi: for metacity? ctrl+alt+arrow i think
[11:32] <genii> lisapc The original torrent protocol uses the ports 6881-6889 and the newer protocol uses a wider range of 6881-6999 all ports are TCP. For a more complete description see http://dessent.net/btfaq/#ports
[11:32] <Flonares> lisapc, yes, it doesn't. It's just a place where the program is "listening"
[11:32] <Flonares> :)
[11:32] <lisapc> genii,  mine is using 1339 atm
[11:32] <Rooy> lisapc: and that page is a good read for new bittorrent users
[11:32] <ardchoille> nospi: Yes, there is, but I don't remember it. That key combo is managed by your window manager (Metacity) but I don't use metacity. I use openbox and you can just scroll on the desktop to change workspaces in openbox
[11:32] <lisapc> Rooy, what page?
[11:33] <nospi> ardchoille, cool
[11:33] <genii> lisapc: http://dessent.net/btfaq/#ports
[11:33] <Rooy> lisapc: genii's link
[11:33] <nospi> ardchoille, i saw a movie on youtube of a 3d one
[11:33] <zipper> genii: when a torrent searches for more seeders/leechers, isnt it UDP? Or is it all TCP?
[11:33] <lisapc> ok
[11:33] <lisapc> genii,  mine is using 1339 atm
[11:33] <Flonares> lisapc, i find it very odd that AZUREUS didn't manage to configure your ports automatically :|
[11:33] <genii> zipper The tracker can use various methods but most common is tcp
[11:33] <nospi> ardchoille, i installed the 3dddesktop package but i don't know how to make it work
[11:33] <Flonares> Azureus knows automatically which doors to use
[11:33] <lisapc> Flonares, the world is odd :)
[11:34] <Flonares> UNLESS you're using a god-blessed proxy
[11:34] <zipper> genii: i see. I just always thought it was doing udp, like dns servers. Oh well, now i know, thanks.
[11:34] <genii> zipper np
[11:34] <Flonares> lisapc, a very restricted kind of proxy
[11:34] <ardchoille> nospi: 3ddesktop is just a fancy workspace switcher. I tried it, but I thought it was too much for me.
[11:34] <lisapc> Flonares, what?
[11:35] <zipper> Anyone has any experience with switching DSTS (acpi) tables or changing acpi to APM? or could give me a hint on where one could find a guide for it?
[11:35] <nospi> ardchoille, how do i make it work?
[11:36] <Flonares> lisapc, there is a confirguration wizard in the Tools menu in Azureus
[11:36] <Flonares> it is straightforward
[11:36] <Flonares> and Azureus configurates itself without problem
[11:36] <Flonares> did you try it?
[11:36] <ardchoille> nospi: It's been a while since I used it. You have to launch it and then there is a special key combo to activate it. Try reading the docs. If you have it installed, maybe /usr/share/doc/3ddesktop can give you some clues.
[11:36] <nospi> ard ok thakns
[11:37] <nospi> ardchoille, :p thanks
[11:37] <lisapc> Flonares, its working already
[11:37] <lisapc> Flonares, but its only dl at 40kB/s
[11:37] <Flonares> That's not YOUR problem
[11:37] <Flonares> that's the server problem
[11:37] <lisapc> Flonares, really?
[11:37] <lisapc> ahh ok
[11:37] <lisapc> Flonares,  so 40kB/s is ok?
[11:37] <Flonares> y
[11:38] <lisapc> y?
[11:38] <Flonares> quite fine, actually
[11:38] <lisapc> ok
[11:38] <darrend_laptop> hi.. anyone know why iptables comes without an init.d script?  What do others do about loading up a set of rules at boot time?
[11:38] <Flonares> when you try to extract things at a 7 kb/s
[11:38] <lisapc> Flonares, what speeds u get?
[11:38] <Flonares> and thay are as big as 1,5 Gb
[11:38] <Flonares> you'll see how that hurts
[11:38] <Flonares> lisapc, it depends on the seeders and leechers velocity
[11:38] <Flonares> I'm always at the 40 kb/s range
[11:39] <Flonares> Sometimes i can get as fast as 100 kb/s
[11:39] <bluffer_> ardchoille can you tell the differnence between texinstall and oem install ? dapper finished installing the rtextmode and just gives me a shell  ( i continued without network)
[11:39] <Flonares> or as slow as 1 kb/s
[11:39] <Flonares> it depends
[11:40] <ardchoille> bluffer_: Sounds like you installed the server edition. The text install is similar to the debian installer. The OEM mode is for installing on a computer that you intend to give away or sell, the new user will set an admin password on the first boot.
[11:40] <techie__> good morning all. Can anybody help with Sound Recorder? I only get beeps or silence but no recorded voice!
[11:40] <lisapc> Flonares, ok
[11:40] <Flonares> techie__ , is you sound card well configurated?
[11:40] <Flonares> :|
[11:40] <lisapc> Flonares, i thought I should get top broadband speeds all the time
I don't know but I am able to play dvd's and vcd and the sound seems right!
[11:41] <Flonares> lisapc, no you don't. If I am the seeder, you will be constrained by my upload speed.
[11:41] <lisapc> techie__, thats ironic u asking that quesrtion with your nickname :)
[11:41] <lisapc> Flonares, well i learned somehing today
lol, isn't it.
[11:41] <HexDump> genii: do you know of a working freenx repository? I have tried 2 with no luck, and cant find more :S
[11:41] <Flonares> lisapc, welcome to my life ;)
[11:41] <lisapc> Flonares, u use azaerus?
[11:42] <Flonares> lisapc, i use many craps... I like to try them out...normally i use bittornado
[11:42] <lisapc> techie__, hehe yeah ;)
[11:42] <genii> HexDump: Hangon I'll find the page I used for my setup
but again Xine Movie Player is a different animal in terms of sounds
[11:42] <lisapc> Flonares, is SAFE PEER plugin for azuerus any good?
[11:42] <ekimus> hello, is anyone running iscsitarget.sf.net on edgy with a xen binary install? I downloaded the source tree did make mkpatches went to iscsitarget source tree and make KSRC=/path/to/patched/kernel but it bails out :(
[11:42] <genii> HexDump For what ubuntu dist?
[11:42] <Flonares> lisapc, dunno. I'm not a great fan of azureus.
I have switched the microphone and tweaked all the commands to no avail.  Give me some commands to check my sound card here... if you know them.
[11:43] <HexDump> genii: kubuntu
[11:43] <genii> HexDump: Yes, but Dapper, Edgy ..?
^_^
[11:43] <Flonares> techie__, dmesg and look up for you soundcard
[11:43] <HexDump> errr... 6.06
[11:43] <genii> Dapper :)
[11:43] <HexDump> phew... xD
[11:44] <genii> HexDump: I'll be back
[11:44] <HexDump> I found this http://www.debianadmin.com/ubuntu-edgy-eft-complete-sourceslist-repository-list-file.html
[11:44] <HexDump> ok mate
[11:44] <Flonares> well
[11:44] <Flonares> smell ya later
[11:44] <HexDump> but it is not working :(
[11:44] <Rooy> !ftbfs
[11:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ftbfs - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:45] <bluffer_> no not server at least the link didnt have server on it i downlaoded this bittorrent from ubuntu downlaods page ardchoille http://ubuntu-releases.cs.umn.edu//6.06/ubuntu-6.06.1-alternate-i386.iso.torrent
[11:45] <bluffer_> ardchoille ^^
[11:45] <techie__> Flonares: I get end_request: I/O error, dev hdc, sector 1852
[11:45] <techie__> [17183679.476000]  hdc: command error: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Erro
[11:45] <techie__> and a whole bunch of other I/O errors
[11:45] <ardchoille> bluffer_: bluffer_ Ok, that is the alternate cd. I use that one. Did you choose the "Install In Text Mode" option when you installed?
[11:46] <bluffer_> yes
[11:46] <elwood> hi all
[11:46] <techie__> Flonares: Maybe my Nvidia is not properly configured!
[11:46] <elwood> i need help con configure wifi on ubuntu edgy
[11:46] <elwood> i follow a wiki
[11:46] <ardchoille> bluffer_: And xorg doesn't start automagically?
[11:46] <genii> HexDump: http://free.linux.hp.com/~brett/seveas/freenx/ has a list. And the page I used as a guide for my setup is at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX
[11:46] <bluffer_> and it finished with just an 848mb vhd instead of 2 gigs advertised
[11:46] <elwood> i configure all of my wifi with wpa supplicant
how do I configure my soundcard ?
[11:47] <bluffer_> no no x after reboot i get a command prompt
[11:47] <Rooy> what does FTBFS mean? I often see it in feisty-changes mail list
[11:47] <elwood> the conncetion go up at login, but after few minuts wlan0 go down....why ?
[11:48] <HexDump> genii: this one Im using with no luck, repository broken?
[11:48] <genii> Rooy FTBFS is a Debian slang initialism for Fails to build from source
[11:48] <ardchoille> bluffer_: open a term and type: apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-core   Does it say it's installed?
[11:48] <bluffer_> i didnt see the slect and install software at all it rebooted right after installing base
[11:48] <HexDump> genii: working now , damn... thanks again genii
[11:49] <genii> HexDump :)
 I sound a double boot and I did notice that my sounds are much louder at the same level while in xp than when in Ubuntu. So probably my sound is not well configured.
[11:49] <HexDump> genii: is this computer fault, it doesnt like me :P
[11:49] <HexDump> :D
[11:49] <ardchoille> bluffer_: Did it ask you for things like admin password, new user full name, configure xorg, etc?
Also when I did my dmsg I could not find any sound cards!
[11:50] <bluffer_> new user yes adming password yes no for the resolution dialog
[11:50] <genii> HexDump: I am very impressed with freenx performance btw, kicks vnc and x forwarding
[11:50] <nospi> what's the difference between the shells?
[11:50] <nospi> i've been using bash
[11:50] <genii> near real-time xsessions
[11:50] <ardchoille> bluffer_: It sounds like the install didn't fully complete. If you have personal files on that machine, back them up and then I would recommend trying to install it again.
[11:50] <Rooy> genii: thanks, the way you put it sounds funny "Debian slang initialism" SE
[11:50] <bluffer_> it did not show up that dialo whre i have to give the 800*600
[11:50] <HexDump> genii: yes, I have been reading about it, it seems they implemented a good protocol
[11:51] <Rooy> genii: i meant :D
[11:51] <HexDump> genii: cached bits help a lot too :D
[11:51] <bluffer_> no personal files its a virtual hard drive i can shift delete it i have alrady shift deleted several installs of edgy
[11:51] <genii> Rooy Well, i copied it from http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&defl=en&q=define:FTBFS&sa=X&oi=glossary_definition&ct=title
[11:51] <genii> Rooy :)
[11:52] <ardchoille> bluffer_: What are you using to install this? Windows? vmware?
[11:52] <bluffer_> his is the first success (or half success) after downlaoding 2.3 gb and installing failure of 5 times
[11:52] <bluffer_> vpc2004
[11:52] <ardchoille> bluffer_: Perhaps the download was corrupted?
[11:52] <bluffer_> no cd check says iso is fin
[11:53] <ardchoille> ok
[11:53] <bluffer_> on all the three cds
[11:53] <ardchoille> bluffer_: 3 cd's? Edgy is only one cd
[11:54] <bluffer_> edgy live kernel panic ---- edgy alternate cant install grub or lilo --> dapper alternate --> no x
[11:54] <bluffer_> so thats 3 cds
[11:54] <ardchoille> ok
[11:55] <HexDump> genii: what's your freenx version?
[11:55] <bwallum> where can i get a list of the various chat rooms please?
[11:55] <genii> HexDump: Lemme look
[11:55] <ardchoille> bluffer_: Not sure what to tell you from here. You might post this problem to http://ubuntuforums.org
[11:56] <billy> greetings folks.
[11:56] <HexDump> genii: I ask because it is starnge my nxserver executable doesnt accept -start / -stop O_O
[11:56] <ardchoille> bluffer_: The forums are nice and there's lots of good folks there.
[11:56] <HexDump> billy: lo mate
[11:56] <bluffer_> also in my computer i cant see the guided partitionig at all ? i am partitioning on my own with two /dev/hda1 = ext2 /dev/hda2 = swap
[11:57] <billy> hey HexDump.  I have a friend who uses dial-up and is on a LiveCD right now (we're on the phone).  What port and folder should she use when using >Places>Connect to Server?
[11:57] <Marlun> I got a link for upgrading Ubuntu Edgy to Feisty before but it seems to be for Ubuntu Desktop, I want to upgrade my server to fesity because it has some new software version I need. How do I upgrade a edgy server to feisty?
[11:57] <bluffer_> yeah i will try posting it in forum but i though some one out there might have some  ideas
[11:57] <bluffer_> out here *
[11:57] <genii> HexDump: Version 1.4.0-44 OS (GPL)
[11:57] <FP> Hi all
[11:58] <bluffer_> but this has been the most frustrating install procedure i ve met till daye :(
[11:58] <billy> hi FP
[11:59] <ardchoille> bluffer_: That partition setup sounds weird. Want a screenshot of the default partition setup for Ubuntu Dapper? It may help you.
[11:59] <HexDump> genii: strange. I have XXXX-45, how do you start it? with -start option dont you?
[11:59] <aisixt> is it possible to install asmmath for latex with aptitude?
[11:59] <bluffer_> downloading on bit torrent at 15 to 20 kb burning iso to disc getting faild (dgy does all the crap maks 2.5 gb big vhd and fails at installing grub or lilo
[11:59] <genii> HexDump: I just have as start command nxserver
[11:59] <genii> No stop/start etc
[11:59] <bluffer_> arcanecode screnshots ?
[12:00] <ardchoille> bluffer_: Here's a screenshot of the default partitions that Ubuntu creates during the install: http://img216.imageshack.us/img216/474/partitionshx3.jpg
[12:00] <HexDump> genii: ok... I was having a look at a tut and it seems in previous versions it had both switches
[12:01] <billy> How do you set-up a dial-up account in Dapper?
[12:01] <genii> HexDump: I had to add an initial user ... I think somewhat like nxserver --adduser <somename>
[12:02] <genii> (before it would run first time no complaints)
[12:02] <bluffer_> you got that screen shot in text mode ?
[12:02] <ardchoille> No, in gnome
[12:02] <genii> HexDump: may have needed to do some passwd too
[12:02] <ardchoille> This is after installation is complete.
[12:04] <Pasteurized> hi all
[12:04] <billy> Pasteurized:  howdy man.
[12:04] <Pasteurized> I'm looking for a tool capable of remove duplicates in a LDIF address book
[12:05] <bluffer_> ah i see in textmode it starts the partition manager or some thing and provides me with the vhd that is all i have to tell it to use as ext2 tell it tomount as / tell it that this partition is bottable etc etc
[12:06] <bluffer_> http://arcanecode.files.wordpress.com/2007/02/windowslivewriterinstallingub.10onvirtualpc2007stepbystep-14593ubuntu610-122.jpg i ma supposed to get this and ubuntu is supposed to autmagically do stuff for me
[12:06] <ardchoille> bluffer_: Maybe vhd is not the best way to install Ubuntu
[12:07] <ardchoille> bluffer_: Yeah, I have 11 machines and the Ubuntu partitioner has always just worked for me.
[12:07] <bluffer_> haha then i wont be abl to install this at all :)
[12:08] <bimberi> ardchoille: you've used up all the luck! ;P
[12:08] <heatxsink> which package has glib-gettextize ?
[12:08] <ardchoille> bluffer_: Is it possible you can resize an existing partition and use that to install Ubuntu?
[12:08] <ardchoille> bimberi: hahaha
[12:08] <omkar86> Can I install ubuntu on logical partition using Desktop CD?
[12:08] <soundray> omkar86: yes
[12:08] <bluffer_> i m no saying that it doesnt work :) im jsut telling that it doesnt work for m :) may b im not a good emloyer
[12:09] <omkar86> on non-primary partition
[12:09] <soundray> omkar86: yes
[12:09] <bluffer_> xisiting partition ? you man in my host pc ?
[12:09] <jenda> how do I restart the sound system in Ubuntu?
[12:10] <ardchoille> bluffer_: If lot of folks have had success with resizing a partition and installing Ubuntu.. those are dual-boot systems.
[12:10] <ekimus> is anyone running iscsitarget.sf.net on edgy with a xen binary install? I downloaded the source tree did make mkpatches went to iscsitarget source tree and make KSRC=/path/to/patched/kernel but it bails out :(
[12:10] <bimberi> hey jenda :)
[12:10] <omkar86> During install I selected that option to manually specify partitions, but the setup freezes, use free space option works fine.
[12:11] <soundray> omkar86: it has nothing to do with your target partition being non-primary
[12:11] <c0nv1ct> has anyone here compiled a custom kernel in edgy?
[12:11] <c0nv1ct> i'm having some problems :\
[12:11] <soundray> !kernelcompile > c0nv1ct, please read ubotu's private message
[12:12] <bluffer_> so ardchoille lets say i have a shell is there any guide to mak it full x from terminal ?
[12:12] <omkar86> can I run Desktop CD in text mode?
[12:12] <omkar86> i think there is prlm with less ram i have 224m ram
[12:12] <soundray> omkar86: no, you need the alternate CD for text mode
[12:13] <bluffer_> i had rebooted that install several times yesterday and it works every time gets me a prompt after i login
[12:13] <ardchoille> bluffer_: I know there's a way to do that, but I'm not sure what to install.
[12:13] <billy> setting up a dial-up connection ought not be so difficult in Dapper.
[12:13] <scanwinder> does anyone know of a linux program that i can use to convert swf's into mp4 files?
[12:13] <c0nv1ct> soundray: yeah, that doesnt tell me anything i dont already know :\
[12:13] <ardchoille> soundray: What does bluffer_ need to install if he wants gnome but only has a shell after installing Ubuntu?
[12:13] <soundray> omkar86: I've had an out of memory-freeze on a system with 384MB, so it's possible.
[12:13] <bwallum> hello, how do I get Flash animations to work properly. Typical problem www.samsung.com (notice Flash animated drop downs at top of page). I'm using Edgy, Xine, Firefox 2.0.0.2. Site is ok, same FF ver works in XP.
[12:13] <bluffer_> i wouldnt want to loose my first child after several abortions
[12:14] <soundray> ardchoille: ubuntu-desktop if he wants the full monty
[12:14] <soundray> c0nv1ct: describe your problem then
[12:14] <ardchoille> soundray: Does he need to install xserver-xorg-core too?
[12:14] <soundray> oops, she
[12:14] <omkar86> ok
[12:14] <krel> hmm.  is there anything that could cause a .avi file to completely freeze ubuntu when playing?  I have a few different movies that do this, and it does it at the same exact point in the movies, both in vlc and mplayer, in xgl+beryl and in default gnome
[12:15] <krel> when it reaches that point in the file, the entire system locks up for 5-10 minutes, no mouse, no keyboard... sometimes it pulls out of it though
[12:15] <soundray> ardchoille: I don't think so. I'd go for ubuntu-desktop and see how it goes
[12:15] <c0nv1ct> soundray: when booting the new kernel, it hangs after detecting all my USB devices, i'm using the old config and manually went through to make sure everything is correct
[12:15] <krel> top shows nothing spinning on cpu or memory or anything, so I'm thoroughly confused here
[12:15] <ardchoille> bluffer_: I would try: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[12:15] <ardchoille> bluffer_: See how that goes.
[12:15] <ardchoille> Thanks soundray
[12:15] <F00BaR> hey
[12:15] <F00BaR> i just installed mysql
[12:16] <F00BaR> how do i access it
[12:16] <c0nv1ct> soundray: the only thing i'm not sure of, is the processory family selection, i've tried both K7 and K8 for my athlon 64, neither worked though
[12:16] <soundray> c0nv1ct: have you tried booting without "quiet splash"? What's the last message?
[12:16] <bluffer_> ok im making a clone and tying that command in the clone
[12:16] <soundray> c0nv1ct: K8 is correct
[12:16] <c0nv1ct> soundray: well, i used the recovery mode option
[12:16] <c0nv1ct> soundray: ok, for a 32bit system correct?
[12:16] <nospi> Flonares, having trouble installing the KDE desktop
[12:16] <nospi> Flonares, i just downloaded it
[12:16] <bluffer_> virtual machines rock for this kind of work :)
[12:17] <F00BaR> how do i access mysql?
[12:17] <ardchoille> bluffer_: Indeed
[12:17] <krel> or is there any way to kill the vlc/mplayer process once the system hangs?  i doubt it, since keyboard doesn't seem to do anything, actually only mouse works but nothing is clickable...
[12:17] <h1st0> F00BaR: what do you want ot do with mysql?
[12:17] <ardchoille> !mysql
[12:17] <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+)
[12:17] <nospi> Flonares, how do i activate it?
[12:17] <omkar86> how at having 1g /  , 5g /usr  and  3g /home ?
[12:17] <h1st0> krel: kill <pidofprocess> in a terminal.
[12:17] <krel> h1st0: keyboard doesn't respond.
[12:17] <jingo811> testing 123?
[12:18] <soundray> c0nv1ct: I would have thought so, although I'm not 100%... But if k7 didn't work either, the processor family selection is probably not the source of the problem.
[12:18] <soundray> c0nv1ct: what's the last message?
[12:18] <genii> jingo811: Yes, we see you
[12:18] <c0nv1ct> soundray: when doing recovery mode, the last thing i see is it loading a USBHID device
[12:18] <Ania_> wiema
[12:18] <h1st0> krel: or hit alt+f2  see if a run prompt comes up
[12:18] <krel> alt+f2, k, will try that...
[12:18] <h1st0> krel: type in xkill and click on the app if it does
[12:18] <Ania_> i am pole
[12:18] <bluffer_> and since vpc is free why the team doesnt concentrate on getting it workable so that many people latch on to it ?
[12:18] <soundray> c0nv1ct: have you connected anything to USB apart from a keyboard and mouse?
[12:18] <Ania_> i am no sprehe english
[12:18] <genii> !pl | Ania_

[12:18] <c0nv1ct> soundray: it showed that it had loaded everything that i have plugged in, my keyb, mouse, G25 wheel, and gamepad
[12:18] <nospi> i downlaoded the KDE desktop
[12:18] <heatxsink> which package in ubuntu has glib-gettextize ?
[12:19] <jingo811> do I need to do any special configurations on Xchat, or is everything already setup?   First time IRC ing.
[12:19] <bluffer_> i have been in lobour for last twenty days or so
[12:19] <c0nv1ct> soundray: it appeared that the last thing it was loading, was the built in hub on my G15 keyboard
[12:19] <bluffer_> labour
[12:19] <c0nv1ct> soundray: of which nothing is plugged into
[12:19] <bluffer_> or labor in yanky languaage
[12:19] <ardchoille> lol
[12:20] <soundray> c0nv1ct: on the assumption that it is a USB problem, I suggest you boot with a minimal set of USB hardware.
[12:20] <HexDump> genii: could you guess why Im receiving a kill 15 on the connection after authentification? (today I definetely have bad luck :( )
[12:20] <c0nv1ct> soundray: the only significant change i made from the 2.6.17-11 config is the AMD64/FX hardware monitor support
[12:20] <jrib> heatxsink: libglib2.0-dev, in the future you can use packages.ubuntu.com or apt-file to search the contents of packages faster
[12:21] <bluffer_> ok thanks i ve got to get off now ? hopefully sudo thingy should get me on track ill try this later at tonight
[12:21] <c0nv1ct> soundray: alright, i'll give it a go with just the keyb and mouse

[12:21] <bluffer_> till then if you find out how i can make it recognize the network card it would b great
[12:21] <soundray> erik__: on nvidia?
[12:21] <nospi> oh lol
[12:21] <h1st0> erik__: are you on a laptop?
[12:21] <nospi> oops :p
[12:21] <ardchoille> bluffer_: Don't forget the forums
[12:21] <erik__> soundray: nvidia indeed
[12:21] <genii> HexDump: Did you export the keys to the client?
[12:21] <c0nv1ct> soundray: yeah, and i've read 3 or 4 threads on ubuntu kernel compiling, nothing about my problem
[12:21] <elwood> anyone can help me with my wifi configuration ???
[12:22] <bluffer_> ardchoille  thanks a lot and soundray you too and mneptok for trying to answer
[12:22] <h1st0> nospi: you can just /msg ubotu blah  and it will do it privately
[12:22] <erik__> h1st0: portable
[12:22] <krel> h1st0: nope, alt+f2 does nothing.  oddly enough, top still refreshes normally while it's frozen to keyboard/mouse input
[12:22] <h1st0> erik__: yeah do you have a function button for enabling the display?
[12:22] <nospi> h1st0, ok thanks
[12:22] <c0nv1ct> soundray: the onlything i see that is related is that i boot from SATA, but i dont see that problem in the console output
[12:22] <bluffer_> yeah ill hopefully post 500 screen shots of babies aborting in various stages in forum :)
[12:22] <h1st0> krel: so X is completely frozen?  or can you launch other apps?
[12:22] <erik__> h1st0: yes but it doesn't seem to work in edgy
[12:23] <ardchoille> bluffer_: hahaha
[12:23] <krel> h1st0: i can't do much without a keyboard or mouse response...
[12:23] <elwood> please i need help
[12:23] <soundray> erik__: if you have the binary driver, there are instructions for laptops and Twinview in /usr/share/doc/nvidia-glx/README.txt.gz
[12:23] <HexDump> genii: Im using no machine otpion, I mean, all machines can connect...
[12:23] <bluffer_> cyal l8r
[12:23] <soundray> c0nv1ct: it wouldn't get to the stage it gets to if SATA was the problem.
[12:23] <h1st0> krel: so its frozen try ctrl+alt+f1 to get to a text terminal.  If not you may have to reboot the system unless you can ssh in from another pc if you enabled ssh.
[12:23] <genii> HexDump: Ah, OK... I used the key from my server, it was in /var/lib/nxserver/home/.ssh/client.id_dsa.key
[12:23] <larson9999> there's no games in linux! i have such a full life i've already played everything in the linux game tome and now i don't know what to do!
[12:23] <HexDump> genii: ok ok, but I wnate to first check everything worked ok... later I will add a key
[12:24] <c0nv1ct> soundray: yeah thats what i thought, also, i did remove ISA and MCA support, considering my computer is only a year old... thats not a problem right?
[12:24] <krel> h1st0: my terminal with top up is still refreshing normally, so i don't think x is frozen persay... let me try ctrl+alt+f1 now, sec.
[12:24] <h1st0> larson9999: There are plenty of game sin linux
[12:24] <krel> refreshing to have a repeatable problem for once, heh
[12:24] <genii> HexDump: Did you add some default user with passwrd to the nxserver?
[12:24] <soundray> c0nv1ct: removing MCA is definitely not a problem, ISA unlikely
[12:24] <h1st0> larson9999: check out nexuiz or americas army etc....
[12:24] <h1st0> larson9999: unreal whole bunch of options
[12:24] <c0nv1ct> soundray: MCA hasnt been used in decades, and i got no ISA slots, so i thought they were unnecessary
[12:24] <nospi> how do i use the KDE desktop interface?
[12:24] <soundray> elwood: be bold and ask a question
[12:24] <nospi> im still using GNOME
[12:25] <larson9999> h1st0: yeah, that was just me blowing off steam from hearing "there are no games for linux"
[12:25] <HexDump> genii: Im using the onw I log into ubuntu... must I add one to nxserver?
[12:25] <c0nv1ct> soundray: suprised they were even in the default config for ubuntu
[12:25] <lisapc> how can I install PGP on Edgy?
[12:25] <ardchoille> nospi: You have to log out and then choose kde from the option in the login screen
[12:25] <lisapc> !pgp
[12:25] <h1st0> krel: what if you hit q witht he top window active does it return to prompt.
[12:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pgp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:25] <soundray> c0nv1ct: there are strange boards out there which connect sensors via ISA
[12:25] <ardchoille> !gnupg
[12:25] <ubotu> gnupg: GNU privacy guard - a free PGP replacement. In component main, is important. Version 1.4.3-2ubuntu3.3 (edgy), package size 1031 kB, installed size 4784 kB
[12:25] <c0nv1ct> soundray: i got a gigabyte nforce 4 sli board... i have never seen anything about them using ISA
[12:26] <h1st0> lisapc: ^^^^^^^^^^ ubotu
[12:26] <lisapc> ardchoille, ty
[12:26] <soundray> c0nv1ct: well, the developers can't exclude people from ubuntu who want to, say, setup a web kiosk on an old Pentium with ISA.
[12:26] <ardchoille> lisapc: You're welcome :)
[12:26] <lisapc> :-)
[12:26] <c0nv1ct> soundray: true, i guess it doesnt hurt to include it
[12:26] <lisapc> ardchoille, install gnupg ?
[12:26] <nospi> ardchoille, thanks
[12:26] <ardchoille> lisapc: If you want a graphical interface, I would recommend seahorse.
[12:26] <ardchoille> noflex: You're welcome :)
[12:27] <lisapc> ardchoille, install seahorse and it installs gnupg?
[12:27] <ardchoille> lisapc: It should
[12:27] <genii> HexDump: I find on research that signal 15 for nxserver relates to ssh component failure... are you running sshd on the server?
[12:27] <c0nv1ct> soundray: alright, i'll give it a go with only keyb and mouse usb, and see what happens, and even try an old PS/2 keyb
[12:27] <lisapc> ok
[12:27] <lisapc> bbl
[12:27] <soundray> c0nv1ct: good plan
[12:27] <HexDump> genii: I think so... I can connect with putty
[12:27] <soundray> c0nv1ct: another idea...
[12:27] <c0nv1ct> soundray: ya?
[12:28] <soundray> c0nv1ct: I don't know how it works with recent kernels and initramfs, but I think you have to ensure that all bootup-critical drivers are in the initramfs
[12:28] <HexDump> genii: and I have 3 processes with name ssd running in the box
[12:28] <c0nv1ct> soundray: k, i'll check
[12:29] <HexDump> genii: One odd thing, Im not seeing any process with name nxserver :S. It should be there doesnt it?
[12:29] <genii> HexDump: As for the adding a user... I had a user on my box with name genii... so I did sudo nxserver --adduser genii && nxserver --passwd genii making both match my system login
[12:29] <F00BaR> ok, now installed mysql, do i need to install phpmyadmin?
[12:29] <F00BaR> ok, now installed mysql, do i need to install phpmyadmin?
[12:29] <F00BaR> oops
[12:29] <F00BaR> sorry for repeat
[12:30] <HexDump> genii: ahhh, I forgot sudo, now I see all the switches (dumb of me)
[12:30] <ekimus> F00BaR: just needed if you are lazy
[12:30] <genii> HexDump: Yeah you should see the process running someplace in background
[12:30] <F00BaR> ekimus, its for other users to access it too
[12:30] <c0nv1ct> soundray: using the --initrd option when compiling should do that automatically right?
[12:31] <F00BaR> should i install it
[12:31] <mihai5423> ?
[12:31] <ardchoille> F00BaR: phpmyadmin is a graphical (web based) interface to mysql, I believe
[12:31] <soundray> c0nv1ct: that option creates the initramfs afaik, but I don't know how it decides which drivers to put in it.
[12:31] <ardchoille> !phpmyadmin
[12:31] <ubotu> phpmyadmin: set of PHP-scripts to administrate MySQL over the WWW. In component universe, is extra. Version 4:2.8.2-0.2 (edgy), package size 3522 kB, installed size 13752 kB
[12:32] <F00BaR> ok
[12:32] <F00BaR> ill use it
[12:32] <elwood> i configure my wifi card in my ubuntu edgy, wpasupplicant etc etc...i followed a  wiki
[12:32] <c0nv1ct> soundray: yeah, me either, well i'll just reboot real quick and see if usb is even the issue, brb
[12:32] <elwood> wifi start at login but after few minute it go down
[12:32] <elwood> why ?
[12:33] <ardchoille> elwood: Maybe it gets tired?
[12:33] <HexDump> genii: NX> 1004 Error: nxagent failed to start with: Unrecognized option: 1   this is the error I see in the log :S
[12:34] <elwood> ahahah
[12:34] <elwood> what ?
[12:34] <genii> HexDump Whoa :( outta my depth on that one
[12:34] <HexDump> genii: thanks a lot anyway :).
[12:35] <poningru> yarr
[12:35] <genii> HexDump: you're welcome, thoi it intrigues me now why your setup is being so problemmatic
[12:35] <soundray> elwood: boot up, run 'tail -f /var/log/syslog' in a terminal and observe the messages. Maybe ubuntu logs an error when your network goes down.
[12:35] <HexDump> genii: newbie?
[12:35] <HexDump> genii
[12:35] <HexDump> genii: newbies tend to do weird things :).
[12:35] <poningru> what are we talking about
[12:35] <larson9999> linux rocks!
[12:35] <poningru> ?
[12:35] <genii> HexDump: :) Well, your ability seems somewhat above average newbie LOL
[12:36] <Marlun> How can I upgrade a server running Ubuntu Edgy to run Feisty?
[12:36] <poningru> !upgrade | Marlun
[12:36] <ubotu> Marlun: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[12:36] <soundray> Marlun: ask in #ubuntu+1
[12:36] <elwood> ok soundry thanks
[12:36] <poningru> HexDump: whats the trouble?
[12:36] <HexDump> poningru: A problem Im ahving with freenx
[12:37] <elwood> Mar 13 12:36:37 rudy kernel: [17185221.856000]  wlan0: No ProbeResp from current AP 00:14:7c:4f:ef:22 - assume out of range
[12:37] <krel> h1st0: i'm messing around a bit with ctrl+alt+f1 to see what's going on while it's freezing...
[12:37] <krel> it seems to be throwing disk errors
[12:37] <genii> Marlun https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FeistyUpgrades is applicable.
[12:37] <krel> is there a log somewhere that would have that?
[12:37] <genii> Marlun It's the same for stock or server
[12:37] <soundray> krel: /var/log/syslog
[12:37] <Chetwin> Hi all.  I installed windows after ubuntu, fixed my grub so that I can boot to ubuntu again, but I don't know how to add my windows partition to the grub list and get it to work.
[12:37] <larson9999> HexDump: great solution... when it works i suppose.  been using it for a couple years and love it
[12:37] <krel> soundray: thanks
[12:38] <h1st0> krel: ahh  so ctrl+alt+f1 worked you should be able to kill whatever proc from there.
[12:38] <ekimus> F00BaR: only if they are lazy (i assume that they know how to work with mysql, it's perfectly able to work over network connections)
[12:38] <h1st0> krel: also may want to just type dmesg  should show you some errors
[12:38] <HexDump> poncho1: Im receiving NX> 1004 Error: nxagent failed to start with: Unrecognized option: 1 when trying to log
[12:38] <krel> h1st0: in answer to your earlier question, q with the top window active does nothing
[12:38] <HexDump> larson9999: well it was genii recomendation :)
[12:38] <genii> larson9999 Me too :)
[12:38] <Chetwin> Can anyone assist me with a grub issue?
[12:39] <elwood> soundry and then ???
[12:39] <h1st0> krel: yeah then keyboard input is definately not working.
[12:39] <soundray> Chetwin: there is a sample section for booting Windows in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[12:39] <larson9999> HexDump: but it did take me forever to figure out how to set it up.
[12:39] <Chetwin> thanks
[12:39] <h1st0> krel: but you could also sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart to restart X
[12:39] <genii> larson9999 The standard setup tutorial for dapper seems to be giving his system fits however, and it's puzzling
[12:39] <soundray> elwood: your system seems to be out of range. Move closer to the access point or rearrange the aerials.
[12:40] <soundray> Chetwin: do you know what to do with it?
[12:40] <Chetwin> soundray: How do I find out what it is...  (i.e. hd0,1)
[12:40] <larson9999> genii: for me it was on the windows side and that key file that was the problem.  oh, and i had a mix of 1.4 and 1.5 instructions that were causing problems.
[12:40] <soundray> Chetwin: you could ask me. Then I'm going to ask you back what partition your Windows is on.
[12:40] <elwood> soundry the router is on the case of my pc
[12:40] <krel> aha, the errors are in my syslog
[12:40] <genii> larson9999 That seems to be related... I have an earlier version than the one he installed, so command switches seem different etc
[12:41] <Chetwin> I don't know the hd0 label
[12:41] <Chetwin> "/dev/sda4"
[12:41] <ardchoille> Chetwin: Do you know which drive (hda,hdb) it is and which partition it is?
[12:41] <soundray> elwood: in that case it's possible that it drowns in signal. Move the router away from the PC (2 or 3 metres)
[12:42] <larson9999> genii: i don't emember where i found it but i finally found a site that had instructions that worked.  i have it bookmarked on another machine. :(
[12:42] <genii> larson9999 Perhaps you may be of more help than me at this point to help him continue
[12:42] <elwood> ok i'll try it
[12:42] <krel> h1st0: http://rafb.net/p/O67dts40.html <-- i get a bunch of those three lines going to my syslog while it's frozen
[12:42] <soundray> Chetwin: /dev/sda4 is (hd0,3) in grub speak if you don't have any other hard disk drives.
[12:42] <elwood> thanks again soudry
[12:42] <krel> i take it that means I have hard drive issues? :)
[12:42] <F00BaR> im trying to install vhcs
[12:42] <F00BaR> how do i do it
[12:42] <krel> (also, odd that that would freeze mouse/keyboard input within x... for everything except ctrl+alt+f1-6)
[12:43] <F00BaR> it says cannot find package when i do sudo apt-get install vhcs
[12:43] <larson9999> genii: well, if i had that bookmark :)  and i have to go soon.  maybe a google of the version number and ubuntu version will dig it up.
[12:43] <soundray> krel: either that, or your master/slave jumpers aren't set correctly
[12:43] <CheshireViking> is there a way of using ubuntu to access a samsung d900 mobile phone - not for editing phone data, just to be able to get photo's off it & add mp3's etc  via a usb cable?
[12:43] <krel> soundray: laptop :)
[12:43] <Chetwin> Thanks
[12:43] <genii> HexDump: Hmm. I'm seeing something about nxagent depencies.
[12:43] <genii> (on web searches)
[12:43] <Chetwin> bbs
[12:43] <F00BaR> genii, can you join #ubuntu-classroom again please
[12:43] <soundray> krel: don't faff around - back up your data and get a new drive
[12:44] <h1st0> Is there a way to see what changes have been comitted to a package?
[12:44] <krel> soundray: probably a good idea
[12:44] <soundray> h1st0: there is a changelog in /usr/share/doc/packagename
[12:44] <krel> thanks for the help :)
[12:44] <genii> F00BaR: To help HexDump or you want me to meet you there for some issue?
[12:44] <soundray> krel: yw
[12:44] <F00BaR> to help me
[12:45] <F00BaR> please
[12:45] <h1st0> soundray: ty
[12:45] <genii> F00BaR: OK gimme a minute
[12:45] <bcarm17> cool fellow bretheren of Ubuntu
[12:46] <c0nv1ct> soundray: it is the SATA problem, the USB info fills up the screen after that so i didnt see it
[12:46] <c0nv1ct> soundray: gotta recompile with SATA built in :)
[12:46] <kalabra> hey cusp
[12:47] <bcarm17> Can any1 help make my usb stick mount
[12:47] <soundray> c0nv1ct: glad you could make a step forward
[12:47] <soundray> bcarm17: using gnome?
[12:47] <bcarm17> yes
[12:47] <bcarm17> 5.10
[12:47] <c0nv1ct> soundray: yeah, removing all USB devices let me see it, thanks for the suggestion
[12:47] <kalabra> sugestions

[12:48] <JuJuBee> Hello all.  I need some help with a fresh install.  Just built a computer (Core 2 duo INTEL 965G, 2GB Ram, 160GB HD, GeForce 6200 LE video) and cannot install ubuntu. It seems that once the linux kernel is loaded, it can no longer read from my dvdrw (Lite On)  Failed to load cdrom device.
[12:48] <factorx> How can I find out my CPU clock speed on command line?
[12:48] <soundray> bcarm17: I can't remember now whether 5.10 had automounting or not. Check System-Preferences-Removable Drives and Media
[12:48] <soundray> factorx: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[12:48] <bcarm17> yes it does
[12:48] <JuJuBee> I tried 6.06, 6.10, and even Feisty (from yesterday).
[12:49] <factorx> soundray: thank you
[12:50] <soundray> JuJuBee: nice machine. Is it a SATA DVD?
[12:50] <JuJuBee> No, IDE
[12:50] <JuJuBee> SATA HD
[12:50] <soundray> JuJuBee: are the jumpers set correctly for master?
[12:50] <bcarm17> 7200rpm
[12:50] <JuJuBee> Yes
[12:51] <bcarm17> sweet
[12:51] <JuJuBee> It starts to boot. I get an install menu, but when I make a selection and it loads the kernel, then it bags on me.
[12:51] <soundray> JuJuBee: do you have any old CD-ROM lying around that you could use instead?
[12:51] <soundray> *drive
[12:51] <JuJuBee> I guess I could pull one out of another machine.
[12:52] <JuJuBee> Since it booted to the install menu, I figured that the drive was not the problem.
[12:52] <poningru> JuJuBee: can you use feisty?
[12:52] <ardchoille> JuJuBee: It's so nice to have more than one machine
[12:52] <bcarm17> talking about my USB!!
[12:52] <JuJuBee> I am a teacher in a small lab room
[12:52] <soundray> JuJuBee: I think that's the way forward. I had this problem with a Mac Pro and edgy, but was able to install feisty on it.
[12:52] <JuJuBee> I have 7 computers for my students
[12:52] <poningru> JuJuBee: also whats the sata controller?
[12:52] <soundray> ardchoille: is that why you have 11?
[12:52] <soundray> :)
[12:52] <JuJuBee> Not sure, how do I find out?
[12:52] <ardchoille> soundray: Aye :)
[12:52] <ZoOlMaN> Hi all, I Installed Ubuntu 6.10, but when I tried to add another OS to a boot menu using GAG it caused that Grub is no longer seen
[12:53] <poningru> JuJuBee: are you installing feisty or edgy?
[12:53] <poningru> ZoOlMaN: GAG?
[12:53] <soundray> ardchoille: what do you use for cluster management?
[12:53] <poningru> oh
[12:53] <JuJuBee> poningru : tried both
[12:53] <ZoOlMaN> yes let me grab you a link
[12:53] <poningru> JuJuBee: hmm whats the error?
[12:53] <bcarm17> soundray: help
[12:53] <ZoOlMaN> http://gag.sourceforge.net/
[12:53] <ardchoille> soundray: I just have them all networked and use ssh. Never needed anything more than that.
[12:54] <JuJuBee> Hang on, I will go write it down...
[12:54] <larson9999> how feisty is feisty?
[12:54] <AndrewB> !ppc
[12:54] <ubotu> ppc is PowerPC.  Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up until edgy, and is now a community port.
[12:54] <poningru> JuJuBee: did you try to boot using nosplash?
[12:54] <poningru> larson9999: 0.0
[12:54] <soundray> bcarm17: I'm waiting for you to check Sys-Prefs-Removable Drives
[12:54] <JuJuBee> Yes
[12:54] <Sus> hi
[12:54] <bcarm17> i did
[12:54] <JuJuBee> Yesterday.  Also acpi=off
[12:54] <Sus> can everybody help me?
[12:54] <ardchoille> Sus: With what?
[12:54] <soundray> bcarm17: so?
[12:54] <nospi> hi again
[12:54] <JuJuBee> Kept getting a prompt for (initramfs)
[12:54] <nospi> having trouble
[12:55] <Sus> I need mpls support under ubuntu linux
[12:55] <nospi> i used KDE, and i like GNOME more
[12:55] <bcarm17> all on auto
[12:55] <nospi> so i came back to Gnome
[12:55] <nospi> but there is no anti-aliasing on the fonts
[12:55] <ZoOlMaN> poningru: its a Graphical Boot Manager
[12:55] <poningru> ZoOlMaN: whats the trouble again?
[12:55] <poningru> ZoOlMaN: it cant find grub?
[12:55] <Sus> but howto
[12:55] <soundray> nospi: there is. System-Preferences-Font
[12:55] <poningru> I thnik its meant to overwrite grub
[12:55] <poningru> JuJuBee: kept getting prompt for initramfs??
[12:56] <nospi> soundray, i know, but i've tried them all, and rebooted too
[12:56] <ZoOlMaN> I have 2 separate HDD's Ubuntu on one and OpenBSD on the other
[12:56] <bcarm17> all on auto
[12:56] <bcarm17> all three
[12:56] <nospi> soundray, do i have to reboot after setting it?
[12:56] <ZoOlMaN> so my guess was that GRUB was on my only ext3 partition hda1! which happend to be wrong
[12:56] <soundray> bcarm17: in a terminal, run 'tail -f /var/log/syslog' and see if there are any errors when you plug the stick in.
[12:56] <soundray> nospi: no
[12:57] <nospi> soundray, none of them make a differnece
[12:57] <ZoOlMaN> bottom of the line I can not boot my installed system any more!
[12:57] <ardchoille> nospi: You usually won't have to reboot for much of anything unless you're changing kernels.
[12:57] <nospi> ardchoille, thats what i thought
[12:57] <soundray> bcarm17: if you can't make sense of them, put them on the pastebin.
[12:57] <nospi> ardchoille, i tried KDE, came back and none of my fonts are anti-aliased.
[12:57] <nospi> ardchoille, this is frustrating
[12:58] <bcarm17> no
[12:58] <ardchoille> nospi: Do you have a file named .gtkrc-1.2-gnome2 in your home folder?
[12:58] <Sus> somebody can help me i need mpls support
[12:59] <nospi> ardchoille,  no
[12:59] <ardchoille> nospi: What about .gtkrc-1.2 ?
[12:59] <bcarm17> soundray: No
[12:59] <poningru> ZoOlMaN: grub is installed in the MBR
[12:59] <nospi> ardchoille, nope
[12:59] <poningru> its own partition
[12:59] <soundray> bcarm17: I haven't asked a question.
[12:59] <nospi> ardchoille, amsn folder, desktop, my music, examples and a picture
[12:59] <poningru> ZoOlMaN: you can install grub again using a live cd
[01:00] <nospi> ardchoille, oh, and wrar362.exe but i don't need that anymore
[01:00] <ZoOlMaN> hmm, o.k. what would be the aproprite command then!
[01:00] <ardchoille> nospi: Open nautilus and CTRL+h
[01:00] <bcarm17> no errors
[01:00] <ZoOlMaN> grub-install /MBR ?
[01:00] <nospi> ardchoille, oh. weird
[01:00] <ardchoille> nospi: That unhides hidden files
[01:00] <JuJuBee> poningru : yes, for an instant I saw an error that said Bug in BIOS then screen disappeared.  I get a menu for install and selected OEM (installing feisty-alternate) after loading the kernel, it cannot load a cdrom.  It tries to mount it but cannot locate one.
[01:01] <nospi> ardchoille, neither of them
[01:01] <soundray> bcarm17: so you're plugging your stick in and nothing happens in /var/log/syslog?
[01:01] <bcarm17> just wait
[01:01] <ardchoille> nospi: ok
[01:01] <poningru> ZoOlMaN: no grub-install /dev/hda or whatever the harddrive is not the partition though
[01:01] <poningru> JuJuBee: hmm
[01:01] <poningru> JuJuBee: I am guessing its the controller
[01:02] <ZoOlMaN> aha, that will do thx poningru
[01:02] <JuJuBee> MoBo is Intel DG965wh
[01:02] <ardchoille> nospi: Do you have any files that begin with .gtkrc ?
[01:02] <nospi> ardchoille, nope
[01:02] <poningru> JuJuBee: can you open up your box and look at the northbridge or the southbridge depending on intel/adm
[01:02] <ardchoille> :(
[01:02] <poningru> s/adm/adm
[01:02] <JuJuBee> Onboard?
[01:02] <nospi> ardchoille, last g file is .gstreamer-0.10
[01:02] <JuJuBee> or in manual?
[01:02] <Tidge> hey guys could u please give me to command line for automatic startup for firestarter
[01:03] <poningru> JuJuBee: if you have the manula that would be better
[01:03] <poningru> just have to figure out what the ide controller is
[01:03] <ardchoille> nospi: You might try System -> Preferences -> Font
[01:03] <nospi> ardchoille, i have
[01:03] <poningru> JuJuBee: and/or the sata controller
[01:03] <bcarm17> it said that it should work
[01:04] <ardchoille> nospi: I'm out of ideas.
[01:04] <soundray> Tidge: you only have to start firestarter when you want to make changes to your firewall/NAT settings
[01:04] <lucaspqr> ci sono italiani che possono darmi una mano?
[01:04] <bcarm17> soundray: it said that it should work
[01:04] <nospi> ardchoille, oh lol wait, those .gtkrc files are there
[01:04] <soundray> nospi: create a new user and see if that has the problem as well.
[01:04] <ardchoille> !it
[01:04] <ubotu> Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!

[01:05] <soundray> Tidge: yes. Just test the settings to be sure
[01:05] <Tidge> thanks :)
[01:06] <ardchoille> nospi: Open both of those in a text editor (or double-click them) and see if there is anything about fonts in them.. I am betting there is.
[01:06] <nospi> ardchoille, there is, in .gtkrc-2.0
[01:06] <JuJuBee> poningru : can't find it in the flyer they sent with MB, where on MB is it?
[01:07] <ardchoille> nospi: Can you pastebin that file please?
[01:07] <soundray> ardchoille: would it not be best for nospi to rename or remove them?

[01:07] <poningru> JuJuBee: it will probably be a chip
[01:07] <poningru> err it is a chip
[01:07] <soundray> ardchoille: ok
[01:07] <poningru> the northbridge
[01:07] <nospi> ardchoille, i see, i configured that in KDE
[01:07] <poningru> oh shit
[01:07] <JuJuBee> I will see if I can find it.
[01:07] <poningru> it might be covered by a heatsink
[01:08] <soundray> poningru!

[01:08] <soundray> bcarm17: I specifically told you to use the pastebin
[01:08] <poningru> PriceChild: yeah yeah I know :p
[01:08] <nospi> ardchoille, yeah, but i need to specifiy a syntax
[01:08] <nospi> ardchoille, or can i leave it blank?
[01:08] <mmkm> hi, how can undo in aptitude? thanks

[01:09] <nospi> ardchoille, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10178/
[01:09] <poningru> JuJuBee: you sure it doesnt say so in your manual?
[01:09] <poningru> it should be on the box or something
[01:09] <poningru> do you know what brand mobo it is?
[01:09] <ardchoille> nospi: ok, soundray was right, you can just rename that file and logout and back in and your fonts should be ok.
[01:09] <nospi> ardchoille, ok thanks
[01:10] <nospi> soundray, thanks :)
[01:10] <ardchoille> nospi: You don't seem to have important gnome stuff in there.
[01:10] <nospi> ardchoille, rename or delete?
[01:10] <ardchoille> nospi: your call
[01:10] <TangledUpInBlue> Hello all!  Can anyone help me get my dell true mobile mini PCI wifi device working?
[01:10] <nospi> ardchoille, ok
[01:10] <nospi> ardchoille, brb
[01:10] <HexDump> genii: I think I found the problem, it is a problem lot of ppl have when using nx windows clientes. I found this http://www.archivesat.com/User_Support_for_FreeNX_Server_and_kNX_Client/thread2551121.htm . Could you have a look at the bottom of the page? it has a path for it, but dont really know what I have to substitute. Check it please

[01:11] <TangledUpInBlue> Thanks!
[01:11] <genii> HexDump: OK, reading
[01:11] <Chetwin> Okay, one more question.. instead of mount /dev/sda/ mount point
[01:11] <Chetwin> What would I enter in fstab
[01:11] <Chetwin> I have fat32 @ /dev/sda3 and I want it rw
[01:11] <soundray> Chetwin: to achieve what?
[01:11] <HexDump> genii: thnx
[01:11] <Chetwin> Auto mount of my windows partition
[01:11] <mmkm> I have deleted many packages using aptitude -f. Do you know how undo it? Thanks
[01:11] <soundray> Chetwin: ah okay
[01:12] <darrend_laptop> anyone know why iptables comes without an init.d script?  What do others do about loading up a set of rules at boot time?
[01:12] <Chetwin> I just don't understand the fstab file, I looked for a pattern and tried a few combos, but nill
[01:12] <bcarm17> soundray: did you get that
[01:12] <HexDump> genii: it seems to be a way to designate blocks of text with a first offset (line/column) and a last offset. But it didnt fit my file
[01:12] <c0nv1ct> darrend_laptop: iptables comes default without any rules
[01:12] <calraith> darrend_laptop: I use firestarter
[01:12] <c0nv1ct> darrend_laptop: you have to create your own init script for your rules
[01:13] <darrend_laptop> c0nv1ct: I know.  but once rules have been entered, typically you want them to be re-applied at start up.  That's my question#] 
[01:13] <darrend_laptop> it's no good applying them in the local rc script as the network is already up by then
[01:13] <c0nv1ct> darrend_laptop: yeah, you have to script out those rules, and make a link in your init directory
[01:13] <_Roman> Do load averages factor in memory usage and other stuff, or is it just cpu usage that is used to calculate the load average figures?
[01:13] <darrend_laptop> ok cool, just wondered if there was already a standard one
[01:14] <darrend_laptop> (that used iptables-save and iptables-restore for example)
[01:14] <soundray> Chetwin: make a mountpoint in /var/local/mydata and use '/dev/sda3 vfat /var/local/mydata 0 1' in fstab
[01:14] <darrend_laptop> c0nv1ct: thx.
[01:14] <bcarm17> soundray: did you get that
[01:14] <genii> HexDump: Holy crap batman thats a long page to read :) You are trying to find on your box where nxnode or node.conf are?
[01:15] <HexDump> genii: only wanted you to have a look at the patch format at the end :D
[01:15] <soundray> bcarm17: I'm not helping you if it results in you flooding the channel

[01:19] <adminx> aalhamad Try CUPS http://localhost:631/ in your local brower

[01:20] <JuJuBee> How do I find out? Im sort of linux noob.
[01:20] <poningru> nospi: whats the trouble?
[01:20] <ardchoille> nospi: Well, that's up to you. I did that too, reinstalled a few times to familiarise myself with it.
[01:20] <adminx> Not sure if that will help but it's where I would start
[01:20] <JuJuBee> When I boot nosplash I get some errors...

[01:24] <nospi> ardchoille, bye :)
[01:24] <poningru> JuJuBee: yeah that seems to be inability to read from cdrom
[01:24] <ardchoille> nospi: see ya
[01:24] <JuJuBee> Yes, after the kernel loads.
[01:25] <JuJuBee> Doesn't feisty use 2.6.20?
[01:25] <poningru> JuJuBee: this happens with feisty as well right?
[01:25] <poningru> JuJuBee: yes
[01:25] <genii> HexDump:  I think you are close to a breakthrough :)
[01:25] <JuJuBee> yes
[01:25] <bcarm17> soundray: i don't know
[01:25] <bcarm17> so bye
[01:25] <poningru> JuJuBee: the same exact error msg?
[01:26] <genii> JuJuBee: After a did a system upgrade on Feisty last kernel i had was 2.6.20-9
[01:26] <JuJuBee> I don't have a regular iso for feisty, only alternate.  Someone suggested using that yesterday.
[01:26] <genii> (from 2.6.20-6 it first installed)
[01:26] <JuJuBee> I am downloading regular iso now.
[01:26] <JuJuBee> Will take a while.
[01:27] <soundray> JuJuBee: I can't see a reason to assume that it will work any better.
[01:27] <soundray> JuJuBee: have you looked into other install methods?
[01:27] <soundray> !install > JuJuBee
[01:27] <JuJuBee> Me either, but a cd is only a few cents.
[01:27] <JuJuBee> Soundray : thanks...

[01:29] <adminx> wrong channel
[01:30] <frtmonster> r
[01:30] <soundray> JuJuBee: it largely depends on what other boot methods you have available.
[01:30] <soundray> JuJuBee: if you have another machine, you might connect the HD there and seed the install, then put it back
[01:31] <HexDump> genii: good news, it worked ;)
[01:31] <JuJuBee> Dont know what that means?  Seed?
[01:31] <genii> HexDump WooHoo :)
[01:31] <poningru> JuJuBee: just install it
[01:31] <lkthomas> guys, if I swap ubuntu HDD between PC, what should I do to change UUID ?
[01:31] <billy> watup gang.
[01:31] <JuJuBee> But then the hardware will be different.
[01:32] <HexDump> genii: if you happen to pass around here, let me invite you to a cooooooooooold beer or two :D
[01:32] <soundray> JuJuBee: by "seed" I mean, install it to a point where it will boot a basic kernel with which you can then do all the hardware recognition etc. on the target system.
[01:33] <soundray> JuJuBee: but, never mind, how does https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick sound to you?
[01:33] <genii> HexDump: Well,  if you get to Toronto look me up and we'll go have one :)
[01:34] <HexDump> genii: ouch... long way from spain :)
[01:34] <poningru> JuJuBee: hehe beauty of ubuntu it will detect it all
[01:34] <JuJuBee> complicated, but I can try it.
[01:35] <poningru> JuJuBee: just put the hard drive in another machine
[01:35] <poningru> and install it
[01:35] <poningru> and switch it bac
[01:35] <poningru> k
[01:35] <JuJuBee> K
[01:35] <genii> HexDump: :) I'm glad it's worked finally. I noticed it ran way faster than the vnc or other things did
[01:35] <poningru> the hard drive i mean
[01:35] <craigbass1976> How does one install mplayer? apt-get install gives me "Package mplayer is not available, but is referred to by another package. blahblah"  It shows up in the add-remove software gui tool, but still won't install.  I've added a couple of archive source lists to sources.list (based on an ubuntu site recommendation) but get the same error messages.
[01:35] <JuJuBee> I will try that first.
[01:35] <JuJuBee> Yep
[01:35] <JuJuBee> HD
[01:35] <craigbass1976> I'm using 6.06
[01:36] <poningru> craigbass1976: did you apt-get update after adding stuff to te sources.list?

[01:36] <JuJuBee> Does it matter that my cpu in other machines is AMD 3000+ and new one is Core 2 Duo 2.13?
[01:36] <craigbass1976> no.  oops
[01:36] <HexDump> genii: Im happy too ^^. 3 hours doing dumb things has been work the time anyway
[01:37] <HexDump> work=worth
[01:37] <genii> HexDump: Well, you have now a very efficient setup. You can use the xforward/xming/putty for specific apps and the freenx for fast remote X :)
[01:38] <poningru> JuJuBee: nope
[01:38] <craigbass1976> poningru, thanks.  It's working.  Btw, the whoel reason for it is to watch a new dairy queen commercial here http://www.dairyqueen.com/en-US/DQ+Ads/default.htm.  Wicked funny.
[01:38] <JuJuBee> K, here goes...
[01:38] <HexDump> yes, lota of things. Too much forme xD. I think I will stick to putty/xming

[01:43] <h1st0> Galga: then you can elect to upgrade or stay with the current version.
[01:43] <Galga> h1st0, so that means i don't have to go through all this installation steps ?

[01:44] <h1st0> lizardking: what nick problems where you having?
[01:45] <lizardking> h1st0: I cannot registerd the nick "lizardking"
[01:45] <lizardking> h1st0: server said it's already registred
[01:45] <h1st0> lizardking: is it already held by someone?
[01:45] <variant> lizardking: probably it's already registered, you ahve to choose another nick
[01:45] <h1st0> lizardking: well then obviously you can register a nickt hats already held.
[01:45] <lizardking> h1st0: I think, but I get alwyas access with that nick
[01:45] <lizardking> :D
[01:45] <h1st0> lizardking: just like you can't register h1st0
[01:45] <h1st0> lizardking: yeah you can use that nick but you can't accept pms etc..
[01:46] <lizardking> h1st0: I know, but when I enter I use always lizardking..not lizardking1 for example
[01:46] <variant> lizardking: at the momment, when the person who registered it before you joins irc you will be automatically kicked
[01:46] <h1st0> lizardking: as long as that person is not online
[01:46] <Xif> what's the best way to run MSIE on Ubuntu?
[01:46] <Galga> lizardking, you can register it like liz@rdking / 1izardking etc

[01:46] <h1st0> !ies4lin | Xif
[01:46] <Xif> variant: how do I get it?
[01:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ies4lin - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:47] <h1st0> !ie4lin | Xif
[01:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ie4lin - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:47] <daya> any  link for easy step to instal ubuntu
[01:47] <variant> Xif: as h1st0 says, it's called ie4lin (provides ie 4/5/6
[01:47] <Xif> ah, thanks
[01:47] <lizardking> Galga h1st0: what abou that If the nickname you want is registered but has not been used for at least 60 days, just ask a staffer  and we'll be happy to drop it for you.
[01:47] <lizardking>  ?
[01:47] <variant> daya: www.ubuntu.com click documentation
[01:47] <FlipCoder> hey can someone help me with partitioning real quick
[01:47] <Xif> variant, h1st0: you probably meant this -> http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page
[01:47] <h1st0> lizardking: well ask a stafer
[01:47] <variant> Xif: yesk, thats exactly what i meant
[01:48] <lizardking> h1st0: infact I asked jenda
[01:48] <h1st0> lizardking: your questions about nickserv etc.. would be better answered in #help
[01:48] <lizardking> h1st0: ok
[01:48] <Xif> h1st0, variant, poningru: thanks
[01:48] <h1st0> lizardking: they would be the ones you need to talk to.
[01:48] <HexDump> ok ppl, time to have lunch
[01:48] <HexDump> c ya all!
[01:49] <Galga> later HexDump
[01:49] <xamox> what is the command to give a tree like structure in linux at the prompt, something similiar to tree in DOS?
[01:49] <lizardking> h1st0: Does the #help channel exist?
[01:49] <Galga> yes
[01:49] <Galga> lizardking, try joining #help
[01:49] <soundray> xamox: tree ;)
[01:50] <FlipCoder> hey im kinda new, do i have to have a swap partition or is that just recommended
[01:50] <soundray> xamox: you have to install it
[01:50] <gordonjcp> FlipCoder: can of worms...
[01:50] <gordonjcp> ;-)
[01:50] <Galga> lizardking, you will end up joing tapthru :)
[01:50] <FlipCoder> heh
[01:50] <xamox> soundray, Ahh. alright
[01:50] <IdleOne> xamox, sudo aptitude install tree ( then you will be able to use the tree command)
[01:50] <h1st0> lizardking: yeah its there
[01:50] <lizardking> Galga: already do. Yes that!
[01:50] <lizardking> ok
[01:50] <lizardking> thnx
[01:50] <gordonjcp> FlipCoder: yes, you want a swap partition
[01:50] <soundray> xamox: alternatively, find . -type d
[01:50] <FlipCoder> k, is 512mb good?
[01:50] <gordonjcp> FlipCoder: it used to be twice as much swap as real memory
[01:50] <Galga> FlipCoder, its cool
[01:50] <FlipCoder> ah ok
[01:50] <Xif> anyone here try to run MSOffice with Wine?
[01:51] <FlipCoder> well im about to upgrade to 2gb of ram in a few days
[01:51] <h1st0> gordonjcp: unless you have like 1 gig of memory.
[01:51] <FlipCoder> but i only have 512mb right now
[01:51] <variant> xamox: apt-get install tree
[01:51] <gordonjcp> FlipCoder: in general you probably want at least a little more swap than real memory, so you can suspend to disk
[01:51] <FlipCoder> ah ok
[01:51] <frtmonster> how can i disable my laptop's touchpad?
[01:51] <FlipCoder> so if i'm going to upgrade to 2gb of ram soon, i should go higher?
[01:51] <xamox> variant, on top of it, thx.
[01:51] <variant> Xif: aprantly it should work
[01:51] <h1st0> frtmonster: completely or just hte tap function?
[01:52] <frtmonster> h1st0: completely
[01:52] <soundray> frtmonster: tpconfig or gsynaptics
[01:52] <gordonjcp> FlipCoder: if you've got that much RAM and you're not planning on using suspend, I wouldn't worry - just go with whatever the installer gives you
[01:52] <Xif> variant: why do you believe so?
[01:52] <gordonjcp> h1st0: one of my computers has 10M of swap, and 1M of RAM... ;-)
[01:52] <h1st0> frtmonster: edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:52] <frtmonster> soundray: these commands do not work
[01:52] <frtmonster> h1st0:  i did
[01:52] <variant> anyone know why running a java sdk under wine would make the desktop become corrupted (missing decorations and black windows everywhree)
[01:52] <soundray> frtmonster: you have to install the packages
[01:52] <frtmonster> ok
[01:52] <romeomajk> any1 with experience with scratchbox and ubuntu?
[01:52] <tarelerulz> Have any of you used peerguardan  for linux?
[01:53] <h1st0> gordonjcp: I was just saying with 1gig of ram a 2gig swap is kind of rediculous.  It should be more like 512mb of swap witht 1g ram
[01:53] <gordonjcp> h1st0: ... unless you want suspend ;-)
[01:53] <ubuntuking> Hello
[01:53] <gordonjcp> h1st0: and anyway, disk is cheap now
[01:53] <terlmann> I say breezy badger , release 5.10 , was THE most stable, reliable, good-looking ubuntu release EVER and I will take you all on to try and disprove it !
[01:54] <poningru> I've heard of distro wars, editor wars
[01:54] <poningru> os wars
[01:54] <soundray> terlmann: take us on in #ubuntu-offtopic please
[01:54] <variant> Xif: because it works with crossover office and they also help with wine code
[01:54] <poningru> but version wars???
[01:54] <IdleOne> !offtopic | terlmann Go here for Taking evryone ON
[01:54] <ubotu> terlmann Go here for Taking evryone ON: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:54] <frtmonster> variant:  i fixed it using easy ubuntu
[01:54] <gordonjcp> terlmann: I miss the little XFCE mouse running in the Xubuntu logo in the splash screen
[01:54] <h1st0> gordonjcp: You should still be able to suspend as long as you arent' using 1gig of physical ram at the time.
[01:54] <frtmonster> variant: thanks for your time yesterday
[01:54] <variant> frtmonster: your welcome
[01:54] <h1st0> gordonjcp: let me try hold up
[01:54] <soho> i need help, after the latest update, i cannot mount my encrypted partition anymore
[01:54] <variant> frtmonster: did you get sorted?
[01:54] <gordonjcp> h1st0: well, you need as much swap as memory in use ;-)
[01:54] <frtmonster> variant: yes with easy ubuntu it works great
[01:54] <variant> frtmonster: hehe, ok
[01:55] <soho> i get: enter passphrase: command failed: key reading error
[01:55] <h1st0> gordonjcp: by suspend you mean hibernate?
[01:55] <poningru> h1st0: no because linux likes using buffer
[01:55] <soho> does somebody have an idea?
[01:55] <poningru> h1st0: right
[01:55] <gordonjcp> h1st0: I think it's safe enough to say that these days, you can throw enough RAM in that you don't need swap
[01:55] <poningru> soho: whats wrong?
[01:55] <poningru> hold on
[01:55] <Xif> variant: (I'd believe they have a solid interest not to make vanilla Wine as good as crossover office :)
[01:55] <gordonjcp> h1st0: hibernate or suspend to disk
[01:55] <variant> frtmonster: feisty fawn will have features to make it work "out of the box" (i know, i tested it and it works)
[01:55] <soho> poningru;  i get enter passphrase: command failed: key reading error on boot
[01:55] <h1st0> gordonjcp: don't have a suspend option in shutdown let me see if hibernate works brb.
[01:55] <variant> Xif: check the winhq application db
[01:55] <Galga> gordonjcp, can you use USB Flash Disk as extended ram ?
[01:56] <soho> my encrypted partion is not mounted anymore
[01:56] <poningru> Galga: no because thats waay to slow
[01:56] <frtmonster> variant: you're a tester or something?
[01:56] <soundray> Galga: yes, but it's not recommended
[01:56] <variant> frtmonster: no, anyone can try feisty. at their own risk
[01:56] <Xif> variant: I will, thanks :)
[01:56] <soundray> Galga: flash only survives ca. 10^5 write cycles
[01:56] <frtmonster> variant: but what about all of the other easy ubuntu things
[01:56] <gordonjcp> Galga: not really
[01:56] <variant> frtmonster: it is extremely not stabalised yet
[01:56] <variant> frtmonster: for example?
[01:56] <gordonjcp> Galga: as soundray says, it's got a limited lifespan, and eventually it will start dropping out
[01:57] <Galga> ok, thanks soundray, gordonjcp
[01:57] <gordonjcp> Galga: in normal use flash memory remaps itself so it scatters rewritten information all over the place
[01:57] <frtmonster> variant: MIDI
[01:57] <variant> frtmonster: no idea
[01:57] <frtmonster> well, i'm not moving to feisty anyway, this distro is working good on my laptop so why should i
[01:57] <gordonjcp> Galga: don't forget that there's no penalty for fragmentation on a truly randomly-accessible storage medium
[01:58] <variant> frtmonster: indeed
[01:58] <hannu> ugh help i have an openoffice presentation that won't open (oo runs my cpu but never opens the file)
[01:58] <gordonjcp> hannu: yes, I just had that with an Excel spreadsheet
[01:58] <frtmonster> variant: i mean, are there any neccasiry improvements?
[01:58] <poningru> hannu: pretty sure you can open it with evince
[01:58] <hannu> is there a workaround?
[01:58] <padan> I am trying to compile the new evolution and it wants libgtkhtml-3.14 ... however I can't seem to locate this package anywhere
[01:59] <variant> frtmonster: once it's completed it will have som nice features yes, but if you'r happy with what you have there is no need to upgrade
[01:59] <padan> it seems that ubuntu comes with 3.12
[01:59] <padan> but I can't even find a place to dl the 3.14 version
[01:59] <soundray> hannu: can you open everything else?
[01:59] <daya> raphink, hi
[01:59] <poningru> padan: pretty sure its in feisty
[01:59] <padan> im running edgy
[01:59] <padan> can I get a .deb from somewhere?
[01:59] <h1st0> gordonjcp: wow my system did not like hibernate one bit.  Never actually shut off.
[01:59] <raphink> hi daya
[01:59] <edward_> hiya
[01:59] <soundray> padan: packages.ubuntu.com
[02:00] <gordonjcp> h1st0: 'cos there's not enough disk space to suspend to...
[02:00] <frtmonster> variant: yea
[02:00] <gordonjcp> (probably)
[02:00] <daya> raphink, we are conducting a FOSS essential training
[02:00] <h1st0> gordonjcp: only using 137mb of ram atm
[02:00] <gordonjcp> h1st0: I haven't played with it yet
[02:00] <raphink> how so daya?
[02:00] <hannu> i can open blank writer files... ugh even if it tries to show my presentation in the preview window it crashes
[02:00] <h1st0> gordonjcp: and 0mb of swap
[02:00] <daya> raphink, we are using ubuntu for installing
[02:00] <gordonjcp> hrm
[02:00] <gordonjcp> h1st0: no swap at all?
[02:00] <raphink> daya: nice
[02:00] <gordonjcp> none defined?
[02:01] <frtmonster> what is a linux command to search?
[02:01] <h1st0> gordonjcp: nope.
[02:01] <daya> raphink, it is two days training
[02:01] <edward_> i'm having problems with installing java, i've tried following the instructions on ubuntuguide.org with no sucess! i'm new to ubuntu but slowly getting the hang of it
[02:01] <frtmonster> oh 'whereis' worked
[02:01] <raphink> frtmonster: depends what exactly you want to search
[02:01] <padan> rats... 3.13.92-0 is the version that ships with feisty
[02:01] <h1st0> frtmonster: to search for a file use locate
[02:01] <padan> ah i located the source
[02:01] <hannu> are there other programs that open .odb files?
[02:01] <poningru> frtmonster: also locate works
[02:01] <daya> raphink, is there any docum. for easy way to install ubuntu along with screen shot.
[02:01] <soundray> hannu: there are, but I have another suggestion
[02:01] <raphink> hannu: openoffice, koffice, abiwork (I think)
[02:01] <daya> raphink, i have found some,
[02:01] <poningru> Hanna: you can also just unzip it youk now
[02:02] <hannu> when i tried evince the screen was all black
[02:02] <frtmonster> h1st0: what about text search?
[02:02] <poningru> hannu: rather
[02:02] <raphink> daya: I don't knwo about that
[02:02] <soundray> hannu: copy it to a temp.zip and run unzip -t on it
[02:02] <h1st0> frtmonster: what are you trying to find?
[02:02] <daya> raphink, ok
[02:02] <gordonjcp> h1st0: hm, think it needs a swap device to hibernate
[02:02] <raphink> gtg
[02:02] <frtmonster> h1st0: a string of words?
[02:02] <h1st0> gordonjcp: I have swap
[02:02] <daya> raphink, how is your work going on
[02:02] <h1st0> frtmonster: in a file?
[02:02] <raphink> daya: good, busy
[02:02] <raphink> ;)
[02:02] <frtmonster> in lots of files
[02:02] <daya> raphink, I have successfully completed ccna
[02:03] <soundray> frtmonster: grep
[02:03] <Dimensions> how do i run a script after system boots ?
[02:03] <h1st0> frtmonster: hrm...
[02:03] <frtmonster> ok
[02:03] <edward_> anyone give me ahand installing java for firefox?
[02:03] <soundray> Dimensions: call it from /etc/rc.local
[02:03] <hannu> what do i do after  unzip -t? it says no errors were detected
[02:03] <h1st0> frtmonster: yeah something like grep whatever filename1 filename2 etc...
[02:04] <romeomajk> how do i use apt-get in order to reinstall packages?
[02:04] <gnome_guy> Hanna What file extension are you trying to unzip?
[02:04] <deep> !ftpd
[02:04] <ubotu> FTP servers: !ftpd, !proftpd, !pure-ftpd, !twoftpd, !vsftpd - Graphical front-ends: !PureAdmin, !GProftpd (for !GNOME), !KcmPureftpd (for !KDE) - See also !FTP
[02:04] <gnome_guy> Hannu What file extension are you trying to unzip?
[02:04] <soundray> hannu: if you have to recreate it, you can unzip it and copy the text at least
[02:04] <hannu> gnome_guy: it's an odp (oo presentation)
[02:04] <Dimensions> soundray:  i did exec /usr/script didn't work for me
[02:04] <hannu> ls
[02:04] <hannu> ls
[02:05] <krinns> hi all
[02:05] <soundray> Dimensions: you should store local scripts in /usr/local/bin. Also make sure your script is executable as root (man chmod)
[02:06] <kbrooks> soundray, no u should store them in ~/bin
[02:06] <h1st0> kbrooks: not if he wants then system wide
[02:06] <h1st0> kbrooks: and ~/bin isn't in his path i'm sure.
[02:06] <kbrooks> ok.
[02:06] <soundray> kbrooks: if you have qualms about the advice I give here, please pm me.
[02:06] <hannu> thanks for your help guys... this is pretty much a computer emergency if i've ever had one.
[02:06] <Xif> variant: btw -> http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iAppId=31
[02:07] <Xif> looks like MSOffice doesn't work on Wine.
[02:07] <Dimensions> soundray:  the command is right ? exec /location/script ? or what
[02:07] <h1st0> Xif: crossoveroffice?
[02:07] <edward_> java help?
[02:07] <Xif> Dimensions: an option.
[02:07] <soundray> Dimensions: the exec is unnecessary if your script terminates
[02:07] <Xif> err, that was for h1st0
[02:07] <kbrooks> xif: ms  office is useless, go w/ openoffice instead
[02:07] <h1st0> Xif: also why not just use Open office?
[02:07] <h1st0> !java | edward_

[02:08] <Dimensions> soundray:  then how do i call it ?
[02:08] <h1st0> Xif: open office will edit word docs
[02:08] <h1st0> Xif: you can even save as a word doc
[02:08] <soundray> Dimensions: just by the name (including the path)
[02:08] <Frogzoo> Xif: oo imports word docs
[02:08] <Xif> h1st0: we tried. it won't open non-English docs correctly.
[02:09] <frtmonster> how can i go to the / folder
[02:09] <Xif> Frogzoo: for you too ^
[02:09] <frtmonster> the root folder
[02:09] <h1st0> Xif: You may need the language package for oo
[02:09] <h1st0> Xif: for whatever language you want to open
[02:09] <frtmonster> what is the command to restart X ?
[02:09] <Frogzoo> Xif: did you install alternate language support?
[02:09] <h1st0> Xif: just like in word
[02:09] <Keneo> frtmonster, ctr+alt+backspace
[02:09] <Xif> h1st0, Frogzoo: interesting, how do I get it in Ubuntu?
[02:09] <Dimensions> soundray:  means just add this line in rc.local ... /location/script and place the script in /usr/local/bin ?
[02:09] <foutrelis> frtmonster: or sudo /etc/init.d/gdl restart :)
[02:09] <foutrelis> frtmonster: *gdm
[02:09] <Xif> (the language package)
[02:09] <frtmonster> Keneo: ?
[02:10] <frtmonster> foutrelis: what is the command to go to root folder
[02:10] <foutrelis> frtmonster: cd /
[02:10] <soundray> Dimensions: just add /usr/local/bin/script
[02:10] <frtmonster> tnx
[02:10] <foutrelis> np
[02:10] <Keneo> frtmonster, the keycombination to restart x is ctr+alt+backspace
[02:10] <soundray> frtmonster: ask one question at a time please.
[02:10] <h1st0> Xif:What language are you looking for?
[02:11] <mneptok> Old Church Slavonic
[02:11] <Dimensions> thanks soundray lemme try it ...
[02:11] <soundray> Keneo: he appears to have found it.
[02:11] <mneptok> it's coming back

[02:12] <karl-erik> Hi! I have a question. I recently downloaded and installed a game,  and it's installd under /usr/local/eve/. Problem is, I have no idea how to start it, or how to add a shortcut to the desktop. Any help?
[02:12] <h1st0> Xif: or you can use synaptic and search for open office language hebrew would give you the proper package to install.
[02:12] <Zirland> hi, I have only one question ... when is new ubuntu expected to be released?
[02:12] <Xif> h1st0: thanks a lot :)
[02:12] <MasseR> 1 month
[02:12] <mneptok> Zirland: april
[02:12] <h1st0> !releases > Zirland
[02:12] <soundray> karl-erik: see if there's an executable file in /usr/local/eve/bin
[02:12] <Frogzoo> Zirland: it's expected in april
[02:13] <Xif> mneptok: ok, so now I know what I need to install the OO part, but what do I need for the Gnome?
[02:13] <ardchoille> I believe it's April 19th
[02:13] <karl-erik> /usr/local/eve/EVE_Paradox_Free/EVE_Paradox seems like it's executable, but opening it doesn't work.
[02:13] <Frogzoo> karl-erik: read the INSTALL or README files
[02:14] <Zirland> thanks
[02:14] <h1st0> Xif: language-pack-gnome-he
[02:15] <karl-erik> The README file details how the game works, and the install-howto tells me how to install it, but the installer didn't offer any help as to where to install.
[02:15] <soundray> karl-erik: have you tried running the executable by entering it with the full pathname?
[02:16] <karl-erik> As in the terminal? No, I just tried clicking it. What's the command for running an executable?
[02:16] <mneptok> Xif: System -> Admin -> Lang Support
[02:16] <soundray> karl-erik: just enter its name
[02:16] <soundray> karl-erik: with full path
[02:16] <karl-erik> Thanks. Moment, trying that.
[02:16] <h1st0> Xif: yeah follow mneptok instructions easier than my way.
[02:17] <protocol1> hello
[02:17] <XP> hi
[02:17] <protocol1> wow my Gaim 2.0 works great
[02:17] <matti> protocol1: :)
[02:17] <karl-erik> /usr/local/eve/EVE_Paradox_Free/EVE_Paradox: error while loading shared libraries: libtiff.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[02:17] <karl-erik> That's what it told me.
[02:18] <genii> protocol1: Yeah I like it too :)
[02:18] <Zewey> hmm, i have an odd problem here. my mpd has been crashing a few times recently, and every time it does that i won't be able to start any Gnome apps
[02:18] <rambo3> !info libtiff
[02:18] <ubotu> Package libtiff does not exist in edgy, edgy-backports, edgy-seveas
[02:18] <soundray> karl-erik: edgy comes with libtiff4 by default
[02:18] <Zewey> anyone experiencing anything remotely similar?
[02:19] <MasseR> soundray: locating libtiff.so and linking to /usr/lib/libtiff.so.3?
[02:19] <karl-erik> Aaaaah. So, the version is outdated? Anything I can do to fix it?
[02:19] <Zirland> does ubuntu support writing on NTFS discs?
[02:19] <soundray> MasseR: yes, worth a try
[02:19] <MasseR> soundray: 95% of the time works for me :)
[02:19] <h1st0> !ntfs-3g > Zirland
[02:19] <soundray> karl-erik: you can make a symlink to the new libtiff and hope that it's backward compatible
[02:20] <karl-erik> Thanks. What's a symlink? And where do I set it up?
[02:20] <h1st0> karl-erik: man ln
[02:20] <MasseR> karl-erik: ln -s /usr/lib/libtiff.so /usr/lib/libtiff.so.3 (hopefully that works)
[02:20] <karl-erik> Alright. Thanks alot.
[02:21] <karl-erik> So, a symlink makes it so that when the program tries to load libtiff3, it instead gets libtiff4?
[02:21] <soundray> karl-erik: in a terminal, do 'cd /usr/lib ; sudo ln -sf libtiff.so.4.2.1 libtiff.so.3'
[02:21] <soundray> karl-erik: MasseR's line won't quite work like that
[02:21] <Xif> h1st0, mneptok: many thanks :)
[02:22] <h1st0> Xif: np
[02:22] <ardchoille> soundray: So a symlink is treated as if it were the file it's linking to?
[02:22] <h1st0> ardchoille: yes
[02:22] <soundray> ardchoille: pretty much.
[02:22] <ardchoille> cool
[02:22] <h1st0> ardchoille: if you do an ls on a symlink ti will show the location of the file or directory that the link points to.
[02:22] <jdrake> Would the gnome desktop work effectively on a P2-400 with 640mb of ram? It currently has xfce on it which works nice and fast.
[02:23] <ardchoille> h1st0: Yeah, thought so
[02:23] <h1st0> jdrake: yeah it will work.
[02:23] <soundray> jdrake: the RAM is enough, but it won't be a pleasure to use with 400 MHz
[02:23] <h1st0> jdrake: may not be as fast as xfce but i dunno they've bene doing a lot of speed fixes to gnome lately.
[02:24] <jdrake> I am essentially trying to setup my sister with crossover office. It includes menus on gnome, but not xfce.
[02:24] <jdrake> Gnome is also more feature complete at the moment.
[02:25] <soundray> jdrake: my wife used openoffice and gnome on a 300MHz Celeron laptop. She was happy, but I found it painful.
[02:25] <hannu> that's it. i ----loathe---- openoffice now.
[02:26] <karl-erik> alright, looks like the program started, but nothing comes up. When the terminal boots the program, this comes up: Starting E.V.E. Paradox free 1.2 (291).
[02:26] <karl-erik> Redirecting stdout/stdin to "/home/karl-erik/.eve/stdout.txt" and "/home/karl-erik/.eve/stderr.txt".
[02:26] <h1st0> jdrake: the requirements ofr gnome are only 16mb of ram
[02:26] <nospi> hey
[02:26] <nospi> ardchoille, hey :) you there?
[02:26] <karl-erik> Does that mean the program isn't backwards compitable?
[02:26] <h1st0> jdrake: minimum requirements that is.
[02:26] <jdrake> h1st0: who writes these minimums :p
[02:27] <DonPhinne1> just  booted ubuntu the second time on another computer
[02:27] <soundray> hannu: what happened between the last time you had the file open and the first time it failed to open?
[02:27] <h1st0> jdrake: how well it runs is a nother question.  I've run it on my k62 laptop before.
[02:27] <soundray> hannu: any OOo crashes?
[02:27] <DonPhinne1> much slower than puppy or dsl
[02:27] <hannu> yes
[02:27] <h1st0> jdrake: the only way to knwo for sure would be to try or find some bodyt hat has the same settup.
[02:27] <hannu> soundray: yes, i had my 'good' file open and opened a 'bad' file, now the 'good' one is 'bad'
[02:27] <h1st0> DonPhinne1: ofcourse ubuntu is going to be slower than puppy or dsl
[02:28] <h1st0> DonPhinne1: you are starting a lot more stuff unless you are using a command line system.
[02:28] <soundray> hannu: are you on edgy?
[02:28] <jdrake> h1st0: I guess I best install it on my sister's machine, I am hoping the harddrive can take it, it is a smaller harddrive
[02:28] <hannu> soundray: yes
[02:28] <DonPhinne1> every time i run anything it runs from cd
[02:28] <DonPhinne1> is there a way to get it into ram?
[02:29] <r00tintheb0x> Hello all, anyones Intel NIC keep dropping network connectivity?
[02:29] <r00tintheb0x> Mine is, i have to set a cron job for it to ping google every five minuets, anyone know what could be wrong?
[02:29] <ardchoille> DonPhinne1: The livecd?
[02:29] <karl-erik> Thanks for the help in trying to get the game working. Prepared to give it up now, though, maybe retry later. To uninstall it, do I just delete the directory it was installed in?
[02:29] <DonPhinne1> yes
[02:29] <soundray> hannu: I have a feisty system with OOo 2.2. If you haven't got any confidential stuff in the presentation, I'd offer to try and open your file for you here.
[02:30] <ardchoille> DonPhinne1: The livecd runs from ram and unpacks things on the fly.
[02:30] <blutorange> goto www.liljosfunblog.de.gg there you get gratis DE domaine !!
[02:30] <DonPhinne1> it's much better than puppy or dsl at recognizing hardware
[02:30] <soundray> karl-erik: depends on whether it has made any changes to your system
[02:30] <karl-erik> Ok. I don't think it did. Is there any way to find out?
[02:30] <ardchoille> DonPhinne1: I think you would need more than 2Gb ram to safely run the entire livecd from ram and be able to eject the cd
[02:31] <karl-erik> I know no shortcuts has been made anywhere, at the very least
[02:31] <DonPhinne1> can you run it from a pen drive?\
[02:31] <soundray> karl-erik: remember you've made one in /usr/lib
[02:31] <karl-erik> Aaaah, true. Should I delee the syslink or leave it there in case it might work with future programs?
[02:32] <fbenites> hi! someone got a wireless ad-hoc network running, with wpa?
[02:32] <bony> I got this error while i tried to run audacity "error initializing the audio i/o layer" in a popup box and after i pressed ok audacity open's but nothing work's in it
[02:32] <fbenites> i am having some troubles here
[02:32] <DonPhinne1> saw an 8 gig pendrive today for $80 can i boot and run ubuntu off of it?
[02:33] <PriceChild> DonPhinne1, ubuntu isn't supported on usb drives... However if your mb/bios supports booting from usb then it is doable
[02:33] <soundray> DonPhinne1: I've seen some partitioning weirdness in recent pendrives
[02:33] <soundray> DonPhinne1: there is some info about installing to USB drives on the wiki:
[02:34] <soundray> !install > DonPhinne1
[02:34] <Dimensions> soundray:  sorry but that /usr/local/bin/script and rc.local call doesn't work ... :(
[02:34] <nospi> !install
[02:34] <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
[02:34] <nospi> soundray, fixed it, i reinstalled ubuntu
[02:34] <Kakarot> hi. hibernate isn't workin after i moved swap to another partition. how can i fix it?
[02:34] <soundray> Dimensions: did you move your script to /usr/local/bin ?
[02:34] <Dimensions> yes soundray .. i have moved it to that location ...
[02:35] <nospi> whats the easiest linux distro for newbies?
[02:35] <soundray> Dimensions: does it work when you enter 'sudo script' in a terminal?
[02:35] <IdleOne> nospi, ubuntu is
[02:35] <Dimensions> yes soundray it does then
[02:35] <apokryphos> nospi: ubuntu, mandriva, fedora and openSUSE are all good
[02:35] <nospi> IdleOne, thought so
[02:35] <nospi> apokryphos, i like fedora cos it has a cool name :p
[02:36] <IdleOne> nospi, mandriva is a nice Distro also
[02:36] <apokryphos> nospi: bad reason to use a distro :P
[02:36] <nospi> IdleOne, ok, might have to check it out
[02:36] <nospi> apokryphos, lol i know :p
[02:36] <variant> why does xorg run as user root in ubuntu?
[02:36] <PriceChild> nospi, "Matter of opinion" - I think is the correct answer :)
[02:36] <soundray> Dimensions: what do you get from ls -l /usr/local/bin/script ?
[02:36] <ardchoille> nospi: You get your font problem fixed?
[02:37] <nospi> ardchoille, yeah, reinstalled
[02:37] <nospi> ardchoille, mpg321 was that package i needed before wasn't it?
[02:37] <Dimensions> soundray:  i have changed mods for it with sudo chmod +rwx automate
[02:38] <variant> is xorg supposed to be running as root?
[02:38] <ardchoille> nospi: I have used 17 different distros and I have found that Ubuntu Dapper is the most stable and problem free distro I have tried. BTW, I have an 8 year old neice that uses Ubuntu Dapper, kinda says how easy it is to install and use.
[02:38] <soundray> Dimensions: what's the owner and group?
[02:38] <Dimensions> so it has all mods ... i get rwxrwxrwx with filter:root
[02:38] <ardchoille> nospi: I don't know about mpg123, never used it. I use xmss for mp3 files, it plays mp3's out of the box.
[02:38] <nospi> ardchoille, ok
[02:39] <nospi> ardchoille, dammit. im in trouble :p gotta go to bed
[02:39] <nospi> bye guys
[02:39] <nospi> thanks for you help :0
[02:39] <pavs> ardshoille i bet the 8 year old didnt install it himself
[02:39] <nospi> :)
[02:39] <gordonjcp> ardchoille: all distros are easy to use
[02:39] <gordonjcp> ardchoille: it's getting them working that's the tricky part
[02:39] <soundray> Dimensions: please put your /etc/rc.local on the pastebin (http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org)
[02:39] <slacker_nl> hi
[02:39] <ardchoille> gordonjcp: I wouldn't say that, slackware kicked my butt once, lol
[02:39] <gordonjcp> heh
[02:39] <slacker_nl> does anyone know how to downgrade from edgy to dapper?
[02:39] <slacker_nl> !downgrade > slacker_nl
[02:39] <Kakarot> hi. hibernate isn't workin after i moved swap to another partition. how can i fix it? appreciate any help
[02:40] <gordonjcp> ardchoille: I've had near-endless problems with getting edgy and a custom kernel and nvidia support working...
[02:40] <dyrne> slacker_nl: mkfs.ext3 :)
[02:40] <ardchoille> gordonjcp: Edgy was rushed
[02:40] <gordonjcp> ardchoille: in any case, my Mum managed to use Slackware on my desktop with no problems at all
[02:40] <soundray> Kakarot: have you updated /etc/fstab after the move?
[02:40] <gordonjcp> ardchoille: that said, I just left her sitting at the Gnome GUI and let her have at it ;-)
[02:40] <slacker_nl> dyrne: uhm.. how would that downgrade me?
[02:41] <dyrne> slacker_nl: its a pain. best bet is to make backup of /home and install dapper on another partition
[02:41] <ardchoille> lol
[02:41] <Kakarot> soundray, yes i did
[02:41] <PriceChild> slacker_nl, its VERY hard to downgrade... you'd probably be better off with a fresh install and saving your home partition.
[02:41] <soundray> Kakarot: and rebooted or done a swapon?
[02:41] <gordonjcp> ardchoille: literally it was a case of "Ah, there's firefox, right..." and off she went
[02:42] <Kakarot> i did
[02:42] <ardchoille> gordonjcp: Yeah, Firefox is familiar and is a must have, IMHO
[02:42] <gordonjcp> ardchoille: yeah
[02:42] <slacker_nl> I sometimes like pain
[02:42] <dyrne> slacker_nl: or just upgrade to feisty
[02:42] <slacker_nl> dyrne: no, its to test a bug on dapper (or better, a bugfix)
[02:42] <JuJuBee> poningru : I installed ubuntu 6.10 onto the HD in another machine and when I put the HD back into the new box, I got error "no bootable device.."  So, I am installing windows just to verify that everything is working.
[02:43] <elementz> hi everybody
[02:43] <dyrne> slacker_nl: ah
[02:43] <gordonjcp> ardchoille: the NVidia problem I has was to do with one if the header files in /usr/src/linux - someone should tell the kernel hackers there's a difference between "deprecated, don't use in new software" and "gank out at the earliest possible opportunity"
[02:43] <Daddais> hi
[02:43] <elementz> can somebody help me mounting a built in cf card reader?
[02:43] <soundray> Kakarot: do you get the expected output from cat /proc/swaps ?
[02:43] <slacker_nl> then someone else needs to test it
[02:43] <Dimensions> soundray: here it is ...  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10184/
[02:43] <slacker_nl> I'm not going to reinstall ubuntu just for a bugfix
[02:43] <Daddais> no one has migration tool's problem when installing ubuntu feisty ?
[02:44] <slacker_nl> or is there someone here present with dapper and uses cacti?
[02:44] <soundray> Dimensions: oh, that's fairly simple. Can't tell you why it doesn't work.
[02:44] <Kakarot> /dev/sda 6 partition 1052216 0 -1
[02:44] <poningru> JuJuBee: ooh that seems fishy
[02:44] <Dimensions> :-[
[02:44] <Kakarot> soundray, i moved swap to a logical (from primary) partition. its before the filesystem. do you think that could be the problem?
[02:45] <soundray> Dimensions: try my modification and look at the logfile. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10185/
[02:45] <soundray> Kakarot: no, I don't think so
[02:46] <soundray> Kakarot: how big is your RAM?
[02:46] <NET||abuse> arrg,, bloody net disconnected
[02:46] <NET||abuse> ok....
[02:46] <elementz> anybody got time to help, pls msg me...
[02:46] <Kakarot> everytime i hibernate, its like im shutting down
[02:46] <NET||abuse> i'm trying to run openvpn on a little test box in our small network here, i have a basic dsl router and want to give access to myself and 2 others to our test server(be it just through a one to one setup or even bridging the whole network,  i don't mind)
[02:46] <Kakarot> 1 gb
[02:46] <NET||abuse> now i have our test server on an ip 192.168.192.251, the router's lan ip is 192.168.192.254, the server is in routed mode for the minute but no routes are pushed to clients,
[02:46] <NET||abuse> and the vpn subnet is set in server.conf as server 192.168.188.0 255.255.255.0 (which means the host for the vpn subnet is 192.168.188.1 aparently)
[02:47] <NET||abuse> does this mean i have to port forward udp 1194 to 192.168.168.251(the servers lan ip) or do i have to somehow get dsl router/firewall (netopia 2247) to port forward to the ip on the vpn subnet? which i honestly don' tknow if it can do.
[02:47] <soundray> Kakarot: all right, you should have said. I thought it wasn't going into hibernate at all.
[02:47] <funpop> there is a default thing starting each sessions, evolution mail check thing. can someone tell me the command line ? i want it back!!
[02:48] <Kakarot> i restart it again and my swap need to be formatted again to linux swap
[02:48] <Xeper> Does anyone here run the ATI SB600 chipset?
[02:48] <soundray> Kakarot: try adding resume=/dev/sda6 to the line #kopt= in /boot/grub/menu.lst, run 'sudo update-grub', reboot and try again
[02:48] <PriceChild> !anyone | Xeper
[02:48] <ubotu> Xeper: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[02:48] <CheshireViking> is there a way of using ubuntu to access a samsung d900 mobile phone - i don't need to be able to edit phone numbers/contacy data etc, just to be able transfer photo's from the phone to the computer & to add mp3's etc  via a usb cable?
[02:49] <Xeper> PriceChild: My real question is has anyone gotten that chipset to successfully work in Ubuntu during an install.
[02:49] <soundray> Xeper: this channel is not for surveys.
[02:49] <PriceChild> Xeper, tried safe graphics?
[02:49] <Xeper> soundray: I'm asking so I can get it to work myself, genius.
[02:50] <Kakarot> ok. thanks soundray
[02:50] <soundray> Xeper: learn how to ask good questions
[02:50] <Xeper> PriceChild: Not sure what that is.  It's not the graphics card that's the issue, though.  It's not picking up my HDD or my DVD RAM drive because it can't pick up the chipset... thus, install is broken at this point for me.
[02:51] <funpop> please go to sessions and tell me the evolution mail check thing command line someone ?
[02:51] <AndrewLife> How do I get rid of that drum sound on when the login screen loads? (I disabled the log in and log out sounds from system-preferences-sound already, I like SILENT computers)
[02:51] <Xeper> soundray: Bugger off.  Nobody comes here to have some pompous ass spread his "wisdom" though being a jerk unnecessarily.
[02:51] <dyrne> Xeper: gksudo gdmsetup
[02:51] <Dimensions> thanks soundray trying again now ...
[02:51] <soundray> AndrewLife: System-Administration-Login Window
[02:51] <AndrewLife> thank you
[02:52] <soundray> Xeper: keep on insulting me. Quick way out of here.

[02:54] <dyrne> Xeper: i havent used gdm in a while but on one of the tabs is the system login sound
[02:54] <jrib> !ssh | gnome_guy
[02:54] <ubotu> gnome_guy: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[02:55] <bayziders> apokryphos: That didn't work.
[02:55] <apokryphos> bayziders: make sure you're registered
[02:55] <bayziders> I'm not
[02:55] <IdleOne> apokryphos, dont need to be registered to receive msg from ubotu
[02:55] <IdleOne> but it does help
[02:55] <apokryphos> IdleOne: but to /msg you do.
[02:55] <apokryphos> bayziders: then register.

[02:56] <ubotu> Az3rty: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[02:56] <Xeper> dyrne: I can't get GDM working, as I can't even complete an install at this point.  That's why I was asking if anyone was running the chipset... to see if anyone had successfully done it, and if so, if I could ascertain how they did it.
[02:56] <funpop> nobody is able to tell me that simple commandline from evolution in "sessions" autostart ?
[02:56] <Daddais> that bot is very useful ! :)
[02:56] <axisys> anyone here knows how to setup intel pro wireless on edgy eft?
[02:56] <bayziders> Okay that worked
[02:57] <IdleOne> Xeper, try searching the ubuntu forums. might prove fruitful
[02:57] <soundray> dyrne: Xeper wasn't the one with the gdmsetup problem.
[02:57] <Az3rty> jrib yeah thx but i'm already on this one but i don't get any answer!
[02:58] <AndrewLife> What would be some typical reasons why someone would prefer debian over ubuntu?
[02:58] <Daddais> i searched in the ubuntu forums, but nothing found. when i install Ubuntu, the installation freeze on the migration page. no one can help?
[02:58] <robe_> There's no way to login as the root user?
[02:58] <Daddais> (ubuntu feisty)
[02:58] <PriceChild> !sudo | robe_
[02:58] <ubotu> robe_: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[02:58] <slacker_nl> robe_: sudo passwd root
[02:58] <PriceChild> Daddais, > #ubuntu+1 for feisty
[02:58] <jrib> Az3rty: sorry, maybe try the french forums or mailing list
[02:58] <soundray> AndrewLife: this isn't a good place to ask this question. Try #ubuntu-offtopic or a debian channel.
[02:58] <slacker_nl> and then you can su or login with root
[02:58] <Dr_willis> robe_,   direct logging in as root is disabled.. thats all there is to it.. not to  had to change.
[02:58] <AndrewLife> thanks soundray
[02:58] <Daddais> PriceChild: Thank you very much, Sir.
[02:59] <PriceChild> robe_, yuo may get a root shell with "sudo -i" but you're recommended to use "sudo foo" for commands
[02:59] <Dr_willis> robe_,  Direct Logging in with KDM/GDM as root is also disabled in a different config file.
[02:59] <PriceChild> robe_, its a security _feature_ in ubuntu
[02:59] <funpop> i need the command line of evolution email check thingy from sessions, autostart, please
[02:59] <soundray> Xeper: what makes you think that your chipset causes the problem you're experiencing?
[03:00] <robe_> PriceChild, I know that but It's painful to write "sudo" every time I need to run a command as a root
[03:00] <MasseR> sudo /s
[03:00] <snotch> robe_, well you've been told what you can do
[03:00] <rambo3> sudo -i
[03:00] <MasseR> -s
[03:00] <rambo3> i
[03:00] <PriceChild> robe_, it makes you think about what you're doing.
[03:00] <PriceChild> robe_, that is the point. You shouldn't just be using sudo for every command :)
[03:00] <robe_> PriceChild, I don't think so. Once you know how to do it you just do it mechanically
[03:01] <slacker_nl> robe_: sudo bash/zsh will work as well, you get a root shell and do you root things
[03:01] <bayziders> wow that's incredibly complicated
[03:01] <robe_> PriceChild, Yes I know I mean with "all commands" all the commands I need to run as root
[03:02] <soundray> slacker_nl: don't recommend sudo bash please -- the environment can be different from what you expect.
[03:02] <Xeper> soundray: Well, it seems the chipset became *kind of* supported with the release of 2.6.20, and a quick Google/forum check led me to believe that I'm not the only one experiencing this problem.  I'm not new to Linux by any means, but I haven't used it in a long time due to being in Iraq.  I came back, built a system, and didn't check to see whether the chipset was supported by Linux -- in the past, all the stuff I've gotten has just worked,
[03:02] <Xeper>  so I didn't think about it.  Anyhow, it seems some people have gotten it to work on FedoraCore, but I don't want to use Fedora, at all... I'd prefer Ubuntu or Gentoo, honestly.
[03:02] <dan__> server localhost
[03:02] <dan__> whoops
[03:03] <soundray> Xeper: is it feisty you're trying to install then? You might be better served in #ubuntu+1
[03:03] <rambo3> and check launchpad for buggs
[03:03] <Xeper> soundray: Tried both feisty and the current release... no dice on either one.
[03:04] <Dr_willis> sounds a bit too cutting edge.  :(
[03:04] <slacker_nl> soundray: I'm not recommending, i'm saying, works as well, just like sudo -i and su
[03:05] <soundray> Xeper: what stage do you get to when you boot?
[03:05] <Xeper> Dr_willis: The chipset, you mean?
[03:05] <Dr_willis> Xeper,  yep..
[03:05] <Dr_willis>  *kind of* supported  - is scary :)
[03:06] <soundray> slacker_nl: the person you addressed won't know the difference. And the problem is: no, it doesn't work as well, because, for example, $HOME may still point to the user's home instead of /root - you just can't be sure.
[03:06] <Xeper> soundray: I've gotten to two different stages -- when I plug in my old IDE DVD drive, it will get to the point where I'm supposed to partition disks (that it can't see because they're running on that chipset), and if I'm using the SATA drive, I get to the part where it can't detect my DVD RAM drive.
[03:07] <Xeper> Dr_willis: Yeah -- I just wish I'd looked into this sooner.  This system is absolutely awesome, but I want to run the OS that I like on it.
[03:08] <Dr_willis> Xeper,  ive had similer things happen befor. normally i test out the various cutting edge live cd's and in a few months the disrtos catch up and get the system working.
[03:09] <soundray> Xeper: perhaps you can install to a PATA hard disk and compile a kernel with whatever possibly experimental driver you need for the SATA disks.
[03:09] <pandoras> i need the commando to switch the Channel XD im a IRC noob
[03:09] <pandoras> \j ubuntu-de
[03:09] <Kcowolf> type /join #channelname
[03:10] <ardchoille> pandoras: Which irc client?
[03:10] <pandoras> Ah! Join not J
[03:10] <Dr_willis> pandoras,  depends on the irc client. /join #channelname
[03:10] <pandoras> thx
[03:10] <Kcowolf> (replace channelname by the name of the channel)
[03:10] <Xeper> Dr_willis: Heh, yeah, I'm just being impatient with it is all.  I think this chipset's been out for a few months already -- I'm hoping that by the time the next stable release of Ubuntu is dropped, it'll be supported.
[03:10] <Mark17> hello
[03:10] <Galga> what is the name of free firewall ?

[03:10] <Galga> ok
[03:11] <Nataliatuxy> help
[03:11] <Xeper> soundray: I'd do that, but I really don't want any PATA drives in my system..
[03:11] <Galga> thanks kestaz
[03:11] <Nataliatuxy> ;(
[03:11] <mneptok> Galga: there are a few
[03:11] <Nataliatuxy> help !!!
[03:11] <soundray> Xeper: not even for as long as it takes to get it going?
[03:11] <Galga> mneptok, which one you prefer ?
[03:11] <pandoras> its a wrong channel name... "ubuntu-de"?
[03:11] <soundray> !de | pandoras
[03:11] <Xeper> soundray: When I get the SATA drive up, won't the install still be on the PATA drive?  I'm lost on that...
[03:11] <ubotu> pandoras: Deutschsprachige Hilfe fuer Probleme mit Ubuntu, Kubuntu und Edubuntu finden Sie in den Kanaelen #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #xubuntu-de und #edubuntu-de

[03:12] <mneptok> Galga: there's no easy answer. read up. sorry.
[03:12] <Kcowolf> it'd be /join #ubuntu-de

[03:12] <pandoras> with a #
[03:12] <pandoras> sorry i forget it
[03:12] <soundray> Xeper: yes, but you can transfer it and adapt /etc/fstab
[03:12] <Mark17> is there an option to change the location off the signature in evolution? it is standard at the end off the email
[03:12] <mneptok> Xeper: what SATA chipset?
[03:12] <pandoras> thx 4 help
[03:12] <Galga> ok mneptok, thanks
[03:12] <Xeper> mneptok: ATI SB600
[03:12] <Nataliatuxy> ;(
[03:12] <mneptok> Xeper: sec
[03:12] <Nataliatuxy> i need help
[03:12] <CheshireViking> !ask > Nataliatuxy
[03:13] <Xeper> soundray: Hm... sounds like that could cause lots of breakage...
[03:13] <soundray> Xeper: it could, but won't if you do it right.
[03:13] <idefix> is there anyone here who can explain to me inequality of Bell?
[03:13] <Nataliatuxy> CheshireViking, how i know my linux is hacked
[03:13] <mneptok> Xeper: oh, that's the southbridge
[03:13] <Nataliatuxy> :(
[03:13] <Kcowolf> I'm looking for vnc4server help if anyone's using it; namely, is the package in the Edgy repository still broken since the major security vulnerability was fixed?
[03:13] <Xeper> mneptok: Right, that runs the SATA, right?
[03:14] <Nataliatuxy> discovery my IP
[03:14] <Nataliatuxy> :(
[03:14] <Xeper> mneptok: Sorry if I'm a bit rusty with this stuff, I haven't been using too many computers at all over the past couple of years.
[03:14] <CheshireViking> Nataliatuxy, I don't know, I've not got an experience of checking that, your best bet is to ask here saying what indications you've got that it might have been, sorry I can't help any more than that
[03:15] <soundray> Xeper: compile a kernel .deb with the driver you need. Partition the SATA drive from the PATA installation. Copy the PATA partition contents to the SATA target with a live CD. Chroot the target system and install the kernel .deb and grub. Bob's your uncle.
[03:15] <mneptok> Xeper: do you know how to pass boot options to the kernel?
[03:15] <Nataliatuxy> CheshireViking, one user discovery my ip
[03:15] <jmampouya> jmampouya
[03:15] <Nataliatuxy> :(
[03:16] <Xeper> mneptok: In a Ubuntu install, no.  I'm coming from Gentoo
[03:16] <silya> Hi all! Xubuntu supports philip 190c monitor?
[03:16] <silya> and ubuntu too
[03:16] <Kcowolf> Nataliatuxy: Discovering your IP isn't a bad thing; your IP has to be out there for you to connect to any websites and such
[03:16] <mneptok> Xeper: press <esc> at the GRUB menu and you can edit the kernel boot parameters. does that sound familiar?
[03:16] <Kcowolf> Nataliatuxy: If the user discovered your password, then you might have a problem.
[03:17] <Xeper> mneptok: Ah, yes.
[03:17] <Nataliatuxy> Kcowolf, how i protect my password ?
[03:17] <rambo3> silya, most monitors are generic
[03:17] <Nataliatuxy> :S
[03:17] <mneptok> Xeper: try adding "acpi=force irqpoll" (no quotes)
[03:18] <Kcowolf> Nataliatuxy: 1. Choose a password you can remember but other people won't easily guess (combination of letters and numbers).  2. Don't tell anyone else what it is.
[03:18] <o_I3ooI3o> are kernel mondules symlinked ?
[03:18] <mneptok> Xeper: if that fails, try "pci=nomsi" as well
[03:18] <soundray> Nataliatuxy: print it on your business cards and hand it out at the country fair ;)
[03:19] <Nataliatuxy> Kcowolf, but if one bad boy infect with exploits and things of hackers
[03:19] <Nataliatuxy> :S
[03:19] <Nataliatuxy> ;(
[03:19] <dragonmantank> does anyone know what this would signify in auth.log: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10188/
[03:19] <Kcowolf> If no one has any vnc4server info, would anyone know if I can set up tightvncserver to require a new X login each time someone connects?
[03:20] <Dr_willis> Kcowolf,  thers a dozen + things you can do with vnc.. once ya learn how vnc works
[03:20] <I3ooI3oo_werking> kcowolf why not use the remote desktop ?
[03:20] <Dr_willis> Kcowolf,  vnc4server is just another vnc server variant.
[03:20] <Xeper> mneptok: Will do -- thank you.
[03:20] <mneptok> Xeper: bon chance
[03:20] <I3ooI3oo_werking> isn't tightvnc built in ?
[03:20] <Kcowolf> With remote desktop, will it require a new login each time and start a new X session, or do I need to be logged in first in order to VNC in?
[03:20] <EnsignRedshirt> dragonmantank: I don't know, but it occurred at 06:25.  Isn't that one of the default time that cron runs something?
[03:21] <Dr_willis> kde and gnome both have a remote desktop feature.
[03:21] <slacker_nl> soundray: if someone is asking how to get a root shell by the means of changing the password I would assume he or she knows what will happen when you do sudo bash/zsh
[03:21] <Dr_willis> Kcowolf,  you can always 'ssh' in and run 'vncserver' to spawn new desktops
[03:21] <dyrne> Kcowolf: you open an x session when you start vncserver for a user.  maybe i misunderstoop
[03:21] <snotch> i always just use username user and password password
[03:21] <dyrne> misunderstood ;p
[03:21] <snotch> works for me
[03:21] <Kcowolf> Nataliatuxy: Ubuntu is generally secure enough if you keep your password secure and your system up-to-date
[03:21] <slacker_nl> soundray: i'm not a babysitter :)
[03:22] <dragonmantank> EnsignRedshirt: I have cron jobs around that time, but they are all labeled CRON[####] : (pam_unix) session blah blah
[03:22] <mneptok> snotch: OMG! you're the one that HACKED ME!
[03:22] <snotch> lol
[03:22] <Nataliatuxy> Kcowolf, mmm, really 100% security?
[03:22] <Kcowolf> My problem is, I had vnc4server set up perfectly, and then I got a "RealVNC Security Vulnderability" notice from my college campus (i.e. if I didn't fix it, they'd kick me off the network).
[03:22] <dyrne>  /whois Nataliatuxy
[03:22] <slacker_nl> snotch: I use the passwd *******
[03:22] <dyrne> oops
[03:22] <slacker_nl> ;)
[03:22] <soundray> slacker_nl: would you mind joining #ubuntu-classroom to continue this?
[03:23] <pavs> username pavs password [press spacebar seven time]  :)
[03:23] <I3ooI3oo_werking> kcwolf since when do collages port probe ?
[03:23] <Nataliatuxy> dyrne,
[03:23] <moginspace> um hello I have a question about mp3 and music files and playing them
[03:23] <slacker_nl> soundray: actually, I'm about to part from here to continue working :)
[03:23] <slacker_nl> soundray: later today ok?
[03:23] <Kcowolf> Nataliatuxy: No system can guarentee 100% security, but I'd say Ubuntu is better Windows
[03:23] <I3ooI3oo_werking> working is for fools
[03:23] <I3ooI3oo_werking> or people that need money
[03:23] <soundray> slacker_nl: probably not, but I'll see you around some time.
[03:23] <snotch> slacker_nl, that's the one i used to use
[03:24] <Kcowolf> I300: well, I'm not surprised they probed that, considering one compromised computer running vnc could be used for very bad things
[03:24] <slacker_nl> soundray: yeah, i'm somewhat of a regular - We will have this discussion again :P
[03:24] <slacker_nl> snotch: hehe
[03:24] <Nataliatuxy> Kcowolf, how i see someone is " hacking " my ubuntu?
[03:24] <wastrel> is there an applet that will let me minimize thunderbird to the gnome notification area?
[03:25] <Marseleon>   ))
[03:25] <I3ooI3oo_werking> how do they know your system in vunrible ?
[03:25] <mneptok> moginspace: just ask
[03:25] <jart> is today's libxine update breaking anyone else's sound?
[03:25] <PriceChild> !en > Marseleon
[03:25] <pavs> vunrible?
[03:25] <slacker_nl> soundray: I joined #u-classroom
[03:25] <Kcowolf> I thought I read that to use remote desktop I had to be logged in physically first
[03:25] <EnsignRedshirt> pavs: Say it out loud...
[03:25] <elkbuntu> pavs he means vulnerable
[03:25] <I3ooI3oo_werking> !remotedesktop
[03:26] <moginspace> so I got this package from synaptic called mp3blaster but it doesn't run
[03:26] <slacker_nl> cheers all
[03:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about remotedesktop - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:26] <jart> my sound is broken :(
[03:26] <moginspace> or maybe I can't find it
[03:26] <pavs> ok... :)
[03:26] <mneptok> moginspace: what do you want to do?
[03:26] <I3ooI3oo_werking> !remote
[03:26] <Marseleon> PriceChild: ok
[03:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about remote - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:26] <rausb0> moginspace: mp3blaster is a console application, you must run it in a terminal
[03:26] <jart> is there anyway to undo an update?
[03:26] <I3ooI3oo_werking> anyone feel like answering some questions ?
[03:26] <slacker_nl> I3ooI3oo_werking: RDP? use rdesktop
[03:26] <moginspace> Tried Alt + f2
[03:27] <elkbuntu> !vnc I3ooI3oo_werking
[03:27] <I3ooI3oo_werking> !rdesktop
[03:27] <rausb0> moginspace: no, open a terminal (gnome-terminal, xterm, ...)
[03:27] <ubotu> rdesktop: RDP client for Windows NT/2000 Terminal Server. In component main, is optional. Version 1.4.1-1.1 (edgy), package size 98 kB, installed size 388 kB
[03:27] <pavs> bugtrack has a nice live cd just came out, it can help you find out if your system is vulrible :)
[03:27] <rausb0> moginspace: not just atl-f2 and mp3blaster
[03:27] <moginspace> i just opened it up, this looks intimidating lol
[03:28] <moginspace> thanks dudes
[03:28] <Marseleon> came learns english :)
[03:28] <bayziders> I installed xgl and when i logged into it it basically looked all scrambled how do i fix this?
[03:28] <I3ooI3oo_werking> never be scared of a program they can't really bully you around
[03:28] <rausb0> moginspace: you wanted mp3blaster, so don't complain :)
[03:28] <tuna-fish> I've got a really weird problem
[03:28] <moginspace> well i really would have liked a gui type one, i did a search in synaptic and that looked the most promising
[03:29] <elkbuntu> tuna-fish, please explain the problem then
[03:29] <rausb0> moginspace: so why don't you use rhythmbox, amarok or xmms?
[03:29] <pavs> i like tuna-fish some times
[03:29] <tuna-fish> when I use the computer for a while, the mousewheel and all the additional buttons on the mouse stop working. Rebooting x won't help, only rebooting the whole computer does.
[03:30] <moginspace> rhythmbox is installed, yet it doesn't seem able to play mp3s

[03:31] <b_52Centos> do you know a tool to convert from avi-->dvd ?
[03:31] <moginspace> is !codecs a package?
[03:31] <tuna-fish> rausb0: afaik there is an unlicenced implementation of mp3, but is not legal in USA due to software patents. Perfectly legal in europe though
[03:32] <moginspace> I live in Japan

[04:04] <I3ooI3oo_werking> My question:  I was installing the Nvidia driver for my older GeForce card.  version 1.9632 is the one that supports my card.  after solving all the problems with not having the dev packages for xorg and the kernel it made the modules.  Now the Kernel module is still running the 1.74XX module while xserver is using the 1.9632 how can i make my kernel use the 1.9631
[04:05] <clust> Hi! "/etc/init.d/networking restart" works fine until I try to do this from a python script. it says: "Reconfigureing network interfaces... [OK] " but the interfaces are down.
[04:05] <JuJuBee> poningru : OK, installed windows and it works fine.  I think it must be linux support for the sata/ide controller.
[04:05] <clust> Can anybody help me?
[04:05] <genii> apokryphos: Sorry :) But I figured it was good enough to copy into here and #kubuntu for those who want to know
[04:05] <I3ooI3oo_werking> with what clust ?
[04:06] <ardchoille> clust: Are you using 'sudo' in that python script to do /etc/init.d/networking restart ?
[04:07] <dyrne> clust: id do a check first then error if user does run with root priv
[04:08] <clust> the script runs under root privileges.
[04:08] <whatspy> hi, I need to keep 2 ubuntu servers' clocks synchronized, what's the right service to use? NTP sounds like it's for synchronizing clients with the server: that's not what I need here
[04:08] <docteur_klein> hello !
[04:08] <clever> whatspy: im using ntp to sync 3 comps to a centeral server which syncs itself to the web
[04:08] <dragonmantank> whatspy: NTP will work fine. Have one update to the internet, and the other server update to server 1
[04:08] <godd4242> alright boyos
[04:08] <techie__> Can anybody tell me what's the terminal command to find out which sound card I am using?
[04:08] <Slart> whatspy: why not keep both servers on right time with ntp.. using an outside server
[04:08] <godd4242> whats the link to beryl support chat?
[04:08] <clever> whatspy: you can probly use it in a sealed system with no external reference but it wont exactly be correct
[04:08] <godd4242> anyone?
[04:09] <docteur_klein> @techie
[04:09] <Pici> godd4242: #ubuntu-effects
[04:09] <Slart> godd4242: have you checked google?
[04:09] <docteur_klein> lspci | grep snd
[04:09] <docteur_klein> or smthg like that
[04:09] <clever> Slart: having several computers syncing to an external server can become a problem if your on a low bandwitdh or with alot of local servers
[04:10] <rambo3> lshw -C sound
[04:10] <techie__> How do I figure which sound card is installed in here?
[04:10] <Slart> clever: oh? I didn't think ntp was that bandwidth/resource demanding..
were you talking to me about the sound?
[04:11] <clever> Slart: yeah it might not use much but if you are paying per the byte used and you have 500 clients....
[04:11] <rambo3> no but i guess it will work for you
thanks
[04:12] <ucordes> !grub
[04:12] <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
[04:12] <Slart> clever: if you have 50 clients and yet paying per byte.. well.. for one thing you've got a weird network setup.. or you're on an oilrig or something =)
[04:12] <clever> Slart: :P i know i was pushing the limits
[04:12] <clever> Slart: i have <20 computers and unlimited bandwidhth 150 down max
somehow it worked but gave me a warning that I should use this as a superuser!
[04:13] <clust> dyrne, ardchoille: The same problem if I try to use ifup from python: "Ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0"
[04:13] <clever> Slart: i can use 0 bytes a month or i can max it to 150 all month long and the bill wont move an inch
[04:13] <Slart> clever: but having a local ntp-server is still doable.. I've had a server for 50 clients and I never had any problems.. didn't even notice the ntp-service
[04:13] <Slart> clever: =)
[04:13] <clust> dyrne, ardchoille: but ifup from bash shell works fine
[04:13] <lestat> hi all
[04:13] <clever> Slart: my ntp server is on a 133mhz and its feeding 3 clients atm
[04:13] <rambo3> techie__, it just prints out all info about your card , soud wont give more info on soud ,
[04:13] <TangledUpInBlue> Anyone know where i can download a Lotus notes client for Ubuntu?  My Network admin has it but he is out ofi the office for the week
[04:13] <clever> Slart: and my load avg is 0.0
[04:13] <variant> clever: what isp do you have?
[04:14] <clever> aliant
[04:14] <variant> clever: that a US isp?
[04:14] <dyrne> clust: im not sure about that id post the question in #python as well
[04:14] <clever> canadian
[04:14] <variant> clever: i see, you should be carefull with the bandwidth regardless of what they say, if you really do max it out 100% of the time they will eventually ask you to stop or pay extra (most likely)
[04:15] <cypherdelic> I cant watch Movies in Fullscreen, please help, als GL-Apps dont work in fullscreen, they all appear BLACK
I am using SBlive, but somehow my soundRecorder does not record voice.. Should I need additonal audio codecs or install other drivers on top of what I have? Any ideas?
[04:15] <clever> variant: yeah posibly but i have yet to get bit torrent or other to be able to max it 150 for even 5hours in a row:P
[04:15] <variant> cypherdelic: using beryl/compiz?
[04:15] <rambo3> techie__, use alsamixer to increse sound input
[04:15] <clever> Slart:  15:13:59 up 10 days,  1:04,  1 user,  load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00
I already have that check on the sound control.
[04:16] <quaal> what do we use to burn .vob dvd files to a dvd disc ?
[04:16] <variant> quaal: k3b is nice
[04:16] <cypherdelic> variant. beryl, but i tried compiz, its the same
[04:16] <quaal> variant, ok
[04:16] <variant> quaal: actualy, k3b is awesome.
[04:16] <quaal> thanks
[04:16] <variant> cypherdelic: and you have either ati card with the free drivers or an onboard intel card right?
[04:16] <clever> yeah k3b is the only prog that can burn data dvd;s so far
[04:16] <clust>  16:11:47 up 225 days,  6:08,  4 users,  load average: 0.01, 0.01, 0.00
[04:16] <clever> havent tryed any others
[04:17] <clever> clust: i beat you for lowest loadvg but you beat me for uptime:P
[04:17] <quaal> clever, data dvd's ?
[04:17] <cypherdelic> variant: no i have Nvidia 7600 Go
[04:17] <quaal> what other kind of dvd is there
[04:17] <quaal> audio ?
[04:17] <clever> quaal: video dvd
[04:17] <clust> clever: ;)
[04:17] <variant> cypherdelic: it is a known issue with the dri drivers and aiglx.
[04:17] <Slart> clever: mm.. same as my home server.. does ntp, backups, file server, router, teamspeak.. and still 0.00 0.00 0.00
[04:17] <quaal> clever, thats what i'm trying to do. burn the .vob files of a dvd on my HD
[04:17] <variant> cypherdelic: ah, in that case try changing the output mode of the video player to x11
[04:17] <clever> but a video dvd is more of just a data with specialy named files
[04:17] <quaal> yea
[04:17] <Slart> clever: I think I'll replace it with a miniitx system soon
[04:17] <clust> clever:  I try to kick my users, maybe I beat you after ;)
[04:18] <cypherdelic> variant. no matter if i use force nvidia or force aiglx, its both the same
[04:18] <variant> clever: thats not true...
[04:18] <tomw> is anyone aware of an update that would cause DHCPSISCOVER to be having problems?
[04:18] <rambo3> techie__, i dont know more about that, you can check alsa page for your module and see how it should be done
[04:18] <clever> Slart: my main router pc is just for ntp/dhcp/router/dns cache and no file serving
[04:18] <variant> cypherdelic: chang ethe video output mode o fyour movie player to x11
[04:18] <variant> as i said
[04:18] <cypherdelic> variant: Xine now closes immidiately
[04:18] <cypherdelic> i cant even change settings
[04:18] <variant> cypherdelic: try mplayer -vo x11 /path/to/file.avi/mpeg/whatever
[04:19] <variant> cypherdelic: or vlc
[04:19] <clever> Slart: it allmost never needs to access the internal harddrive i think
[04:19] <cypherdelic> and what about my GL-Games like foobillard? variant
[04:19] <variant> cypherdelic: lets fix one thing at a time.
[04:19] <Rooy> !vi
[04:19] <Slart> clever: I was thinking of using a flash card for hard drive.. just to get rid of the hard drive
[04:19] <ubotu> Text Editors: gedit (GNOME), Kate (KDE), mousepad (Xfce4) | Terminal-based editors: vi/vim, emacs, and nano (user-friendly). | HTML/CSS editors: !html | Programming: !code
[04:19] <clever> Slart: i didnt have a flash card when i started making that box
[04:19] <variant> cypherdelic: and this is one of the reassons that beryl/compiz is not included by default on feisty
[04:19] <troughton> can enyone help me after some resent updates i lost my graphics and had to reinstall the xorg-server but i now have no vertual terminals can anyone help ??
[04:20] <clever> and i didnt even know of that idea then
[04:20] <clever> Slart: but ive seen stuff for making a 100% silent system using a flash card
[04:20] <variant> cypherdelic: it will probably be that you have to change back to metacity when viewing videos
[04:20] <clever> Slart: with 0 moving parts in the entire pc
[04:20] <variant> cypherdelic: easy enough with beryl-manager loaded
[04:20] <cypherdelic> variant: uh thants bad, hopefully it will be fixed till final
[04:20] <cypherdelic> beryl rocks
[04:20] <variant> cypherdelic: indeed
[04:21] <clust> Slart, clever: VIA Samuel processors are able to run without FAN.
[04:21] <Slart> clever: I've seen a CF to IDE converter.. 10$ perhaps.. then you could use it as a normal hard drive
[04:21] <variant> cypherdelic: does the video load and go fullscreen with mplayer -vo x11?
[04:21] <clever> clust: this was a large heatpipe+large sink
[04:21] <Slart> clust: mm.. I think almost all of their models are available as fanless
[04:21] <cypherdelic> i actualy havent got it installed

[04:21] <I3ooI3oo_werking> Slart : you are right you can get a CFdisk.1e for 10 buck is IDA adapter for CF cards
[04:21] <cypherdelic> i installed vlc first variant
[04:21] <Slart> yes, sorry variant
[04:21] <variant> cypherdelic: please try with mplayer
[04:22] <troughton> can enyone help me after some resent updates i lost my graphics and had to reinstall the xorg-server but i now have no vertual terminals can anyone help ??
[04:22] <I3ooI3oo_werking> We use them at werk for a Dos HDD
[04:22] <variant> Slart: no need to apologies
[04:22] <I3ooI3oo_werking> since we only need about 7 meg
[04:22] <cypherdelic> variant: vlc closes when i switch to fullscreen
[04:22] <variant> cypherdelic: please try with mplayer
[04:23] <dyrne> troughton: you cant alt-ctrl-f2? what happens if you sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop does it drop you to a getty login?
[04:23] <clever> Slart: ive seen a diff ram based hdd idea which used regular ram chips on a pci card and batery backup
[04:23] <Slart> sooo.. back to ubuntu.. anyone know how I can get some other video-mode during boot up?
[04:23] <troughton> when i alt-ctrl-f2 nothing happens
[04:23] <cypherdelic> variant: i willt try but first i will install that new kernel 2.6.20-10
[04:23] <Slart> clever: mm. I've seen those too.. but that setup cost a little bit more I think
[04:23] <variant> cypherdelic: as you please
[04:24] <cypherdelic> variant: thanks for your help so far
[04:24] <clever> Slart: yeah but the guy was surprised that the fully silent box performed better then his gaming box
[04:24] <troughton> dyrne its a dead swith
[04:24] <troughton> swich
[04:24] <Slart> clever: =)
[04:24] <variant> cypherdelic: np
[04:24] <clever> Slart: then theres the turning it on and not hearing anything problem which normaly means its busted:P
[04:25] <dyrne> troughton: gotta get back to work sorry
[04:25] <dxdt> Anyone in here use ubuntu server?  how do you like it compared to other server distros?

[04:36] <MasseR> MostKnown53: Try the add-remove :)
[04:36] <wolferine> MostKnown53: are you familiar with FTP?
[04:36] <MostKnown53> yes
[04:36] <slavik> The following Xorg config does not get me bigdesktop mode :( http://rafb.net/p/bygF3554.html
[04:36] <variant> MostKnown53: click system > administration > synaptic package manager
[04:36] <zOap> how do I get my touchpad to use the bottom part of the pad to scroll left/right? Now it only does back/forw in firefox...
[04:36] <PriceChild> !apt | MostKnown53
[04:36] <ubotu> MostKnown53: 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)
[04:36] <MostKnown53> i already have the install cd they sent me one in the main
[04:36] <variant> MostKnown53: and select what you want to install/uninstall from there
[04:36] <wolferine> there are many FTP sites to grab the .iso
[04:37] <wolferine> you may want to get both the .iso (standard) AND the alternative
[04:37] <CheshireViking> MostKnown53, do you you mean how do you download an Ubuntu cd to install, or you want to install specific software on a computer that has got Ubuntu already installed?
[04:38] <MostKnown53> just general software to install
[04:38] <bayziders> how do i uncomment them
[04:38] <PriceChild> bayziders, delete them or put a # in front of them
[04:38] <wolferine> bayziders: uncomment what?
[04:38] <variant> PriceChild: you mean remove the # from the front.. not delete them
[04:38] <bayziders> 3rd partty repos
[04:38] <variant> PriceChild: he wants to _uncomment_ them
[04:39] <dxdt> MostKnown53, the trick is that with Ubuntu, programs come in "packages" packages can be installed different ways.  Synaptic is a graphical point and click way of doing it.  apt-get is a command line way of doing it.  For example, if you wanted to install a program called abiword, you could open Synaptic and then find the program in that by searching and clicking install.  Another example would be if you wanted to download the latest version of Skype.  yo
[04:39] <dxdt> u could download the most recent version from their website, and double click the .deb file you downloaded.  The Gdebi installer should pop up and help you finish the install (which is basically next next finish)
[04:39] <PriceChild> bayziders, variant whoops, earlier I meant "comment or delete"
[04:39] <wolferine> remove the # as that makes the entire line a "comment"
[04:39] <variant> PriceChild: lol
[04:39] <PriceChild> bayziders, so you want to put a # before it or delete them :)
[04:39] <wolferine> u trying to confuse everyone Price :P
[04:39] <ZeZu> can anyone tell me if one can access the pci bus directly w/o writing a device driver in linux ?
[04:39] <bayziders> okay but where do i do this?
[04:40] <dxdt> I remember being so confused about how programs installed in linux the first time I switched.  It just made no sense to me lol
[04:40] <wolferine> bayziders: in the file
[04:40] <MostKnown53> ok i am a linux noob i dont even kno how to get my printer to work so the gui program would be better for me
[04:40] <bayziders> which is where >>
[04:40] <wolferine> dxdt ubuntu is much better
[04:40] <goetiaoccultus> What would I use to encrypt files or folders in ubuntu
[04:40] <ardchoille> goetiaoccultus: You can use gnupg for that and seahorse is a nice gui for gnupg.
[04:41] <ardchoille> !gnupg
[04:41] <ubotu> gnupg: GNU privacy guard - a free PGP replacement. In component main, is important. Version 1.4.3-2ubuntu3.3 (edgy), package size 1031 kB, installed size 4784 kB
[04:41] <clearzen> Can you use a lightscribe drive under ubuntu?
[04:41] <Vilhelms> How can I reset the alsa device? I get the following error whenever I try to play an audio file: ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:862:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave ALSA snd_pcm_open error: Device or resource busy
[04:41] <ochosi> i have a tvout-question. my card (ati rage128) is rather old, i use composite out to a tv and it works in bios and console. but as soon as xserver starts (or even bootsplash) the tv gets no signal anymore. any ideas on how to config the xorg.conf?
[04:41] <goetiaoccultus> ardchoille: thanks , is it easy on the command line
[04:41] <kristjan_> what's the vga= for 1280x800 framebuffer, or does usplash only support standard 4:3 aspect ratio?
[04:41] <dxdt> wolferine, well yeah.  That's why I run Ubuntu now.  I started on Fedora core something.... I didn't even know RPM's existed.  I would build, or try to build, everything!  I tried to build apache from source, etc.  It was terrible haha.  Then I found RPM.  I complained about rpm in a room once.  Someone pointed me to Debian and from there I bounced to Ubuntu
[04:41] <variant> clearzen: afaik, there is an sdk available. not sure what programs implement the feature though
[04:41] <ardchoille> goetiaoccultus: Sure: sudo apt-get install seahorse
[04:41] <quaal> ok the dvd i just burned with k3b goves "no disc" in my dvd player

[04:42] <goetiaoccultus> thanks

[04:45] <Symmetria> heh one of the universities here... I have to laugh... for years they ran an opensource mail system, with opensource imap etc, and it worked
[04:45] <quaal> variant, but the point of burning it on dvd is not to only play it on ubuntu.. i want it to run on my dvd player.. or the windows htpc at the very least
[04:45] <Symmetria> then they decided they dont trust opensource, its not well enough supported, blah blah so they put in novell groupwise
[04:45] <Symmetria> now, its completely STUFFED and they are in big trouble
[04:46] <Symmetria> cause groupwise is a complete ballsup
[04:46] <variant> quaal: if it plays on ubuntu then it is a correctly burned disk. if the other devices can't play it thats their fault

[04:49] <Galga> how can i install a latest version of an application. For example apt-get install amsn, installs an old version. After installation it asks for installing the latest version which is 0.95-2.1
[04:49] <variant> ZeZu: otherwise you might get a load of "unkonwn device"
[04:49] <Galga> i have tried sudo apt-get update amsn, but it doesn't help
[04:50] <Azoff> (it's the linux-source-2.6.15 from dapper (server installation))
[04:50] <sharkp> hi
[04:50] <Azoff> sharkp: hello
[04:50] <sharkp> I need help about xsane
[04:50] <Rooy> hi sharkp
[04:50] <PriceChild> Galga, ubuntu is based around a release system. We freeze the distribution before release with stable packages. These don't get updated unless there are critical security fixes or major bugs.
[04:50] <PriceChild> Galga, is there any reason you want a higher version of amsn?
[04:50] <Vilhelms> How can I reset the alsa device? I get the following error whenever I try to play an audio file: ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:862:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave ALSA snd_pcm_open error: Device or resource busy
[04:50] <Slart> Galga: apt-get only installs the version in the repos.. software end up in the repository when it's checked so it doesn't conflict with other programs etc.. so the version in the repository will usually be older
[04:50] <shatrat> Galga, it will only install the newest version in the repository.  If you want an even newer version youll have to find a 3rd party repository, compile the program yourself or find a .deb package somewhere for your distro
[04:50] <sharkp> Azoff, when I'm scanning an image
[04:51] <ZeZu> variant, i grabbed the -dev package
[04:51] <sharkp> Is there the possibility to choose only a part of the image?
[04:51] <goetiaoccultus> ardchoille: do i have to restart x or something , i made a key first off but im not getting options on my folders or files to encrypt
[04:51] <Galga> PriceChild, NO. I thought the request for update will be due to some purpose behind it
[04:51] <variant> ZeZu: why?
[04:51] <ZeZu> variant, i'm looking to get the source to lspci so i can see how it accesses pci
[04:51] <Azoff> sharkp: sorry mate, donno
[04:51] <gumpish> Arg... I reinstalled on one of my hosts and now ssh gives me the "man in the middle" warning - I want to remove the old entry from my knownhosts file, but  how do I tell them apart? They all look like garbage.
[04:51] <Galga> thanks Slart
[04:51] <variant> ZeZu: i see
[04:51] <ZeZu> there is no -src but -dev doesn't seem to contain the source either
[04:51] <sharkp> Azoff, what??
[04:51] <PriceChild> Galga, if we kept updating the repos... we'd make things unstable :)
[04:52] <Galga> PriceChild, if its ok to stay with older version and no need to install the latest than, well i will stay with it
[04:52] <dsquare> how do i create a folder in my ETC folder? i dont have permissions!!
[04:52] <sharkp> excuse me my bad slang comprehension... :D
[04:52] <variant> ZeZu: http://mj.ucw.cz/pciutils.shtml
[04:52] <PriceChild> !sudo | dsquare
[04:52] <ubotu> dsquare: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[04:52] <Galga> PriceChild, ok thanks
[04:52] <ZeZu> variant, thanks
[04:52] <PriceChild> dsquare, any reason why you want to make a folder in /etc ?
[04:52] <variant> ZeZu: the download link fromt here is the src
[04:52] <PriceChild> dsquare, be very careful int here..
[04:52] <ardchoille> goetiaoccultus: You should get an Encrypt option when right clicking a file or folder in nautilus. Try restarting nautilus
[04:52] <PriceChild> Galga, you can still compile your own from source if you want

[04:53] <Symmetria> heh I must admit, Im quite suprised at how low the churn in the packages are in ubuntu, it certainly makes maintaing the mirrors easier
[04:53] <Azoff> sharkp: don't know anything about xsane
[04:53] <Galga> PriceChild, i m new to linux.
[04:53] <dsquare> !tor | dsquare
[04:53] <PriceChild> dsquare, As well at it being not too good... you don't need to create that folder in ubuntu... the package installs fine
[04:53] <sharkp> Azoff, ah,ok!
[04:53] <sharkp> who can help me?
[04:53] <dsquare> ok.. i dont have any idea how PriceChild.. can you tell me where to start please??
[04:53] <PriceChild> dsquare, whoops... not that one... this one....

[04:55] <Mark17> is it possible to see what gateway i use when i'm on a server and where can i change the gateway (ubuntu)?
[04:55] <dsquare> PriceChild, uhmm i will just say that my intentions are pure. :\ ill check the forums thanks :)
[04:55] <PriceChild> dsquare, i'll find it for you
[04:56] <gumpish> doh - to answer my own question the warning actually says which line the offending key is in.
[04:56] <goetiaoccultus> ardchoille: ah there we go just typed nautilus -q and now it works thanks :)
[04:57] <espen> have anyone experienced that when you are about to install ubuntu 6.10, it takes some time to load, and then suddenly you get a blank screen where you can type, but no commmands work?

[05:00] <sharkp> how can I save in that format?
[05:00] <dxdt> you can make it share between linux machines, but there are native linux things like NFS that I think would do a better job
[05:01] <wolferine> bullgard1: try #help
[05:01] <sharkp> kooka doesn't save in tiff
[05:01] <sharkp> how can I save in that format?

[05:01] <JuJuBee> Using a new INTEL DG965wh mobo
[05:01] <wolferine> so NFS is used between two or more linux machines, rather than Samba?
[05:01] <sharkp> kooka doesn't save in tiff

[05:01] <sharkp> how can I save in that format?
[05:02] <espen> anyone?
[05:02] <shatrat> JuJuBee, sounds more likely its the cd-rom, have you tried a different one?
[05:02] <JuJuBee> shatrat : yes
[05:02] <rausb0> sharkp: why do you need tiff? is png not okay?
[05:03] <JuJuBee> Even tried to install onto HD using different computer and put HD back in... no luck. Installed windows and it boots and installs fine.
[05:03] <sharkp> rausb0, I need a not-compressed format
[05:03] <shatrat> JuJuBee, and did you try stuff like ide=nodma and stuff?
[05:03] <JuJuBee> Me=linux noob
[05:03] <sharkp> rausb0, how the png is?
[05:03] <espen> *detach
[05:03] <dxdt> wolferine, yeah NFS is like Network File System and is typically used when doing only two linux machines.  It sounds scary to setup, but it actually isn't at all.  i did it recently for the first time and I was just like WHOA  because all the guides make it sound like a big deal and it isn't.  Also, if you know ssh, there is something called fuse which will let you mount over ssh.
[05:03] <JuJuBee> Tried nosplash & acpi=off.
[05:03] <sharkp> rausb0, is it like jpeg?
[05:03] <rausb0> sharkp: png is usally compress, but it is lossless
[05:04] <[BTF] Chm0d> [BTF] Chm0d is gaming.  !gameinfo for more info.
[05:04] <wolferine> mount over ssh?
[05:04] <rausb0> sharkp: no artifacts like in jpeg
[05:04] <Galga> !gameinfo
[05:04] <wolferine> i dont see why that would be a benefit
[05:04] <PriceChild> Galga, sudo chown ats:ats -R /home/ats/.amsn/
[05:04] <Bjarne> Helse te mormor
[05:04] <JuJuBee> I will give it a try
[05:04] <shatrat> JuJuBee, pci=noacpi and ide=nodma are a few other things you could find. This is with the LiveCD? I assume youve checked to see that it isnt corrupt or burned wrong
[05:04] <sharkp> ok, i'll try, rausb0
[05:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gameinfo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:04] <sharkp> thanx
[05:04] <Galga> ok thanks PriceChild
[05:04] <wolferine> dxdt what do I want to do to setup NFS?
[05:04] <mjr> wolferine, it's handy if you want to (securely) mount stuff over the net from a server which you can only access via SSH and don't control yourself
[05:05] <wolferine> but if u can ssh in, then you can do anything you want
[05:05] <foutrelis> [BTF] Chm0d: Are you a bot?
[05:05] <wolferine> maybe reading some documentation might be better
[05:06] <mjr> wolferine, of course. Still, mounting is often handy for use by local programs, especially GUI ones which one doesn't often want to run remotely due to slowness
[05:06] <slavik> The following Xorg config does not get me bigdesktop mode :( http://rafb.net/p/bygF3554.html
[05:07] <genii> JuJuBee: What cpu you have and 1 core or more?
[05:07] <wolferine> hmm, I beleive you, just not sure why you would do it
[05:07] <wolferine> what firewall is set by default on a new install?
[05:07] <dxdt> wolferine, by default none
[05:07] <wolferine> and is there one that is not just command line (firewall)
[05:07] <[BTF] Chm0d> I'm back from the game!
[05:08] <dxdt> ummm  you make sure it is installed  on both machines first.  In ubuntu you need to install the package nfs-common I think on both.  Then it is really pretty easy.  I think I followed the first google hit for it.  It involved a command like mount this that and I think one other file change on the other machine to allow clients to touch it via nfs
[05:08] <dxdt> wolferine, oh yeah for sure.  I think firestarter is one that is not command line only.
[05:08] <wolferine> kmyfirewall
[05:08] <JuJuBee> shatrat : yes tried both commands
[05:08] <foutrelis> [BTF] Chm0d: Good for you. But don't /msg anyone who comes into #ubuntu about games.

[05:08] <rellik> I've been having problems with my sound (no sound), so I took out the sound card, leaving only the on-board sound..  do I have to let ubuntu know that I did this, or should it automatically start using the on-board sound?

[05:10] <genii> JuJuBee: Perhaps try as kernel options:   notsc
[05:10] <dxdt> easy as pie makes no sense... I take that back.. It was easy.  Missburn maybe?  i've done it several times with K3b so I know it works.  hmmm
[05:10] <JuJuBee> K
[05:10] <samuel> hello all
[05:10] <JuJuBee> What is that?
[05:10] <samuel> any idea of a program to decode mime attachments from files?
[05:10] <wolferine> quaal: probably a codec issue
[05:11] <wolferine> quaal: maybe check goold
[05:11] <quaal> wolferine, dvd players have codecs?
[05:11] <dxdt> I just have my dvd formatted files >> New DVD movie project.  I tell it to create the Audio and Video folders, and I just dragged in al lthe video files into that video folder (since I had no specific audio ones)
[05:11] <wolferine> google*
[05:11] <[BTF] Chm0d> rellik, did you get a reply?
[05:11] <rellik> [BTF] Chm0d, nope
[05:11] <[BTF] Chm0d> in your bios do you have your onboard sound enabled?
[05:12] <drummer_wilson> hi! i downloaded ubuntu 6.10 but it doesnt work... maybe its not supporting my chipset?
[05:12] <rellik> [BTF] Chm0d, hmm..  I'll have to check
[05:12] <dxdt> was someone in here asking about ISP CONFIG and PHP?
[05:12] <dxdt> or something?  Are they still here?
[05:12] <[BTF] Chm0d> usually when you have a card installed for sound the onboard is disabled
[05:12] <shatrat> JuJuBee, there are other methods to install you might try.  usb stick, minimal cd, network...https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation
[05:12] <quaal> dxdt, hmm
[05:12] <genii> JuJuBee: Short answer is that it has to do with core timing housekeeping
[05:12] <quaal> dxdt, so it needs to have both audio_ts and video_ts dirs? the dvd i have on the HD only has video_ts
[05:12] <quaal> and i did data dvd
[05:12] <quaal> maybe it needs to be video
[05:13] <JuJuBee> I tried notsc and sam eproblem.  Right after kernel loads, the light on dvd goes out kerblang.... fails.
[05:14] <pkern> Are USB stick images available somewhere?
[05:14] <dxdt> quaal, as for playback, if you can't playback a normal dvd in your drive, say a storebought one, you probably need the codecs installed.  Basically the people who make dvd's put this encryption codecy stuff around them, but didn't make a free version.  People have reverse engineered it, they said "Hey you can't do that becacuse that's competition to us"  and so as a result it is not necessarily legal depending on where you live and such and so it can't b
[05:14] <dxdt> e installed by default.  Online, though, there are tons of instructions for giving yourself DVD support in Ubuntu.  It is a fairly easy thing.  That's a very basic explanation to the DVD codec problems.
[05:14] <sbn> Is there a place where I can check if my wiireless usb key is supported by ubuntu?
[05:15] <amorphous_> I'm trying to setup ssh with rsa key - all appears to be good if I try to access the remote machine from my root account (the keys are here) - the passphrase is asked for for the key - but if i try to acces the remote machine from my standard user account it only asks for a password and is not secure at all :/... am I missing something??? i have found that I have had to put the key in every user account on the remote machine to make each account secu
[05:15] <amorphous_> re... it this right too????
[05:15] <wolferine> help with Firestarter?
[05:15] <dxdt> quaal, my discs always have both folders, but in the times that I have burned them, I never filled the audio up.  (and I still had audio so it was just in the video files)
[05:15] <amorphous_> (sorry about the big post)
[05:15] <dxdt> I'm not sure exactly how that coding works
[05:15] <genii> JuJuBee: What iso did you download?
[05:16] <sbn> Is there a place where I can check if my wiireless usb key is supported by ubuntu?
[05:16] <JuJuBee> I have 6.06, 6.10, feisty-alternate, dsl 3.2  None work
[05:16] <wolferine> im using the Firestarter wizard, but its asking me questions, well, I dont know what the answers are, just skip the wizard and config manually?
[05:16] <foutrelis> !repeat | sbn
[05:16] <ubotu> sbn: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[05:16] <wolferine> and can I get a listing of open local ports?
[05:16] <Jasperk> hey hi...i am newbie in ubuntu...well in linux in general...i try with slackware a few weeks in this distro use konkeror for navigate into the files of the system but in xubuntu what application i must use...???
[05:17] <genii> JuJuBee: I mean i386 amd64 x64   etc
[05:17] <ochosi> anyone here knows how to setup tvout on an old ati rage 128? (i have tv out working in bios, but not in the xserver)
[05:17] <wolferine> Jasperk: do you have a Places in your bar at the top?
[05:17] <JuJuBee> i386, sorry.
[05:17] <wolferine> Jasperk: between Applications and System....
[05:17] <JuJuBee> Was told yesterday that the 64 bit has issues as well, try 32 bit first.
[05:18] <genii> JuJuBee: Yes, thats right
[05:18] <CheshireViking> sbn, you can try this http://www.linuxquestions.org/hcl/index.php/cat/10
[05:18] <rbil> in Xubuntu, thunar is the file manager
[05:19] <Jasperk> wolferine: yes i have a places in the top of my bar.....
[05:19] <wolferine> u can use that to surf your computer
[05:19] <CheshireViking> sbn, or this one https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported
[05:19] <genii> JuJuBee: put as boot option X86-64
[05:20] <wolferine> or rbil said you can use thunar
[05:20] <JuJuBee> anything else as well?
[05:20] <wolferine> someone able to help with Firestarter?
[05:22] <samuel> wolferine: what do you need?
[05:22] <drummer_wilson> hi! i downloaded ubuntu 6.10 but it doesnt work... maybe its not supporting my chipset?
[05:22] <JuJuBee> genii : no luck

[05:22] <genii> bleh
[05:22] <wolferine> im trying to get past the wizard
[05:23] <wolferine> network device setup/internet connection sharing setup
[05:23] <wolferine> do I want to "enable Internet connection sharing" ?
[05:23] <blue|palm>  Does anybody know what causes your CTRL+ALT+F1-6 terminals to appear extremely messy? (graphically) Im using an ati X1900XTX with the prop fglrx drivers
[05:24] <zkorpio> hi, anyone knows where can i find some web that has an virtual terminal to practice linux?
[05:24] <blue|palm> with the latest ati drivers
[05:24] <samuel> wolferine: do you want to share your internet connection?
[05:25] <samuel> if you are behind a router or no other computers are around then no
[05:25] <drummer_wilson> hi! i downloaded ubuntu 6.10 but it doesnt work... maybe its not supporting my chipset?
[05:25] <gordonjcp> drummer_wilson: "doesn't work" in what way?
[05:25] <drummer_wilson> says something boout my cpu
[05:25] <gordonjcp> drummer_wilson: does it sit on the couch all day smoking dope and watching Richard and Judy?
[05:25] <wolferine> k, thanks samuel
[05:25] <drummer_wilson> is that a joke?
[05:26] <gordonjcp> what does it say about your CPU?
[05:26] <bayziders> ah what take two hours to pass the time of upgrading
[05:28] <amorphous_> anyone know why ssh will only use rsa from my root account, any other account and there is no rsa & no protection.... i'm confused :(
[05:29] <tienbkit> hi
[05:29] <tienbkit> can you tell me about ebook of Qt programing
[05:30] <genii> JuJuBee: Still here?
[05:30] <wolferine> how do I receive DCC sends in xchat-gnome?
[05:31] <PriceChild> wolferine, I don't see why you need to use DCC, but they should just appear in channel.
[05:31] <trainer> hi when I try to install the DOM inspector for Firefox I get this: The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[05:31] <trainer>   firefox-dom-inspector: Depends: firefox (= 1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.3-0ubuntu3) but 1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.10-0ubuntu0.6.06.2 is to be installed
[05:31] <PriceChild> wolferine, don't send them in here ;)
[05:31] <wolferine> well, you would have to setup your firewall/router to allow yourself to receive
[05:32] <tienbkit> can you tell me about ebook of Qt programing , please
[05:32] <gnomefreak> trainer: sudo apt-get -f install
[05:32] <Rooy> !patience | tienbkit
[05:32] <ubotu> tienbkit: The people in this channel are volunteers. Your attitude will determine how fast you are helped. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[05:32] <trainer> gnomefreak, I got the same error
[05:32] <tienbkit> oh, thanks a lot
[05:32] <dxdt> wolferine, yeah just tell whatever firewall, probably firestarter what you need to open up port wise.  (Is dcc 59?  I don't remember) and also remember to do the same if needed on your router.
[05:33] <gnomefreak> trainer: can you pastebin the full command and error and join #ubuntu-mozillateam please
[05:33] <wolferine> but within x-g u dont really need to set anything, cause its DCCsend (atuo-on)
[05:33] <wolferine> hmm, anyone willing to attempt a send to me?
[05:33] <dxdt> I wish abiword wasn't so bad.  Is it Alpha software?  It barely works but is so sweet when it does.
[05:34] <Galga> apache or apache2 ? which one is stable on 6.10
[05:35] <CheshireViking> tienbkit, which book specifically, there's quite a few that get listed looking at the amazon website
[05:35] <JuJuBee> genii : yes, I am back.
[05:35] <bluffer_>  ardchoille still up ?
[05:35] <dxdt> Galga, both should be stable, but they are separated for other reasons.  Fights over hyperthreading mostly in the community.  Some feel that apache2 isn't ready for that reason or something like that... I dunno for sure.  Otherwise both are considered stable.  it isn't like apache2 is alpha/beta or something like that
[05:35] <genii> JuJuBee: My last suggestion for now would be all together:   acpi=off noapic nolapic
[05:36] <ardchoille> bluffer_: Yep :)
[05:36] <bluffer_> dont sleep eat ?
[05:36] <Galga> thanks dxdt
[05:36] <JuJuBee> I will try it.
[05:36] <ardchoille> bluffer_: I eat, yes, but what is sleep? lol
[05:36] <JuJuBee> thanks
[05:37] <bluffer_> well i opened up the box ? now and i did your sudo magic
[05:37] <bluffer_> http://img76.imageshack.us/img76/9735/ubuxqw2.png before login
[05:37] <ardchoille> bluffer_: Did you install ubuntu-desktop ?
[05:38] <genii> trainer sudo apt-get install firefox=1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.3-0ubuntu3
[05:38] <ardchoille> bluffer_: That tells me that you're in tty1, xorg normally runs in tty7.
[05:38] <genii> JuJuBee: A comprehensive list of aLL kernel paramers can be found at http://www.gelato.unsw.edu.au/lxr/source/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt?a=i386   if you care to experiment
[05:39] <JuJuBee> Well, I got more info, but still no boot.
[05:39] <JuJuBee> BIOS Bug, no explicit IRQ entries.  Using default mptable
[05:39] <c0nv1ct> well crap, i finally get my new kernel to boot, but my networking is all messed up :\
[05:39] <genii> JuJuBee: hangon I saw one for that
[05:40] <bluffer_> ok did that sudo aptget it asked for cd i gave it the iso tells me it needs 1.5 gig so hopefully it should end up running i think http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/4712/ubuxsudoaptgetinstallubpk5.png
[05:40] <genii> JuJuBee: option noirqbalance    [IA-32,SMP,KNL]  Disable kernel irq balancing
[05:40] <ardchoille> bluffer_: Looks like it's going to work.
[05:41] <ardchoille> bluffer_: If it installs successfully, do: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[05:41] <ardchoille> That should fire up gdm and allow you to log into gnome
[05:41] <JuJuBee> OK, I will give it a go... brb
[05:43] <bluffer_> dunno vpc screenwent black now after sudo get finishes what should i get ? get the prompt back ?
[05:43] <bluffer_> should i reboot ?
[05:43] <ardchoille> bluffer_: Try pressing the capslock button a couple times.
[05:43] <bluffer_> there seems to be no activity in cd or hd
[05:44] <bluffer_> ah i got some thing now on screen the resolution screen
[05:44] <Paddy_EIRE> Does anyone know if Metisse is available on Ubuntu yet?
[05:44] <Paddy_EIRE> !Metisse
[05:44] <ubotu> Metisse is Mandriva's composite window manager. For more information, see http://www.mandriva.com/projects/metisse
[05:44] <ardchoille> !info Metisse Edgy
[05:44] <zkorpio> hi, anyone knows where can i find some web that has an virtual terminal to practice linux?
[05:44] <ubotu> Package metisse does not exist in edgy
[05:45] <ardchoille> Paddy_EIRE: I don't think so
[05:45] <Paddy_EIRE> oh well
[05:45] <bluffer_> it has three selected ill remove the 1024 leave alone 8008600 and 800.480 ok
[05:45] <genii> JuJuBee: There are a mess of others to do with irq handling as well but the possibly most relevant seem to be for case:
[05:45] <genii> irqfixup         When an interrupt is not handled search all handlers for it. Intended to get systems with badly broken firmware running.
[05:45] <genii> irqpoll         [When an interrupt is not handled search all handlers for it. Also check all handlers each timer interrupt. Intended to get systems with badly broken firmware running.
[05:45] <ardchoille> bluffer_: You can enable all the ones you want there
[05:45] <genii> sorry ops for multiline paste
[05:46] <Paddy_EIRE> ardchoille, I have this months issue of Linux Format which comes with Mandriva One Metisse Live, although there is no install option once im in the live distro
[05:46] <blue|palm> http://opende.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Page
[05:46] <ardchoille> Paddy_EIRE: Sounds like a "teaser" for Mandriva :)
[05:46] <Paddy_EIRE> oh
[05:47] <blue|palm> Does anybody know what causes your CTRL+ALT+F1-6 terminals to appear extremely messy? (graphically) Im using an ati X1900XTX with the prop fglrx drivers
[05:47] <bluffer_> well i have a 14" monitor and it has 800*600 so ill have only 640* selected
[05:47] <ardchoille> bluffer_: Yeah. that's a small monitor
[05:47] <EdgEy> is there a way to remove ubuntu packages as if i installed from kubuntu cd
[05:47] <JuJuBee> genii : noirqbalance did not fix it.  should I use all 3 then?  balance, fixup and poll?
[05:48] <EdgEy> to stop gdm, etc being updated when it's never used
[05:48] <ardchoille> EdgEy: Huh? You mean clean out packages that you already installed?
[05:48] <EdgEy> ardchoille, yes
[05:48] <EdgEy> for example removing kubuntu-desktop will kill all of that
[05:48] <genii> JuJuBee: Sure :) Maybe try together with the 3 previous ones like noapic noacpi  etc
[05:48] <CheshireViking> Paddy_EIRE, to install mandriva from a live cd, you have to open a Terminal Window and type /usr/sbin/draklive-install
[05:48] <CheshireViking>  accroding to http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=523494
[05:48] <EdgEy> but i have a feeling if i remove ubuntu-desktop it will break a lot
[05:49] <ardchoille> EdgEy: I think you're confused.
[05:49] <genii> Experimenting at this point may yield something
[05:49] <EdgEy> ardchoille, what i mean is
[05:49] <EdgEy> if you install from kubuntu cd, it won't install a lot of gnome stuff (at least i think it wont)
[05:49] <ardchoille> EdgEy: No, ubuntu-desktop is just a meta package and can be safely removed. You should re install it later if you plan to upgrade
[05:49] <EdgEy> i first installed from ubuntu cd, then added kubuntu-desktop later. maybe there's a way to clean out packages that haven't been used in X days?
[05:50] <ardchoille> EdgEy: You're wanting to remove all gnome stuff and stick with kde?
[05:50] <EdgEy> yes
[05:50] <kraut> does the xubuntu-installer support dm-crypt devices?
[05:50] <EdgEy> if i end up lacking gtk stuff i need i suppose apps will install that from dependencies
[05:50] <ardchoille> EdgEy: Not sure how to safely do that, maybe ask in #kubuntu
[05:51] <bluffer_> ok it is doing some stuff http://img187.imageshack.us/img187/1720/xresww3.png
[05:51] <JuJuBee> genii : when I press F6, do I put these after the end "--", does it matter what order they go in?
[05:51] <Paddy_EIRE> CheshireViking, thx man, would be good if this option wasnt hidden.  The DVD also contains OpenSUSE 10.2 would the procedure be the same
[05:51] <genii> JuJuBee: Nope
[05:51] <kraut> !xubuntu
[05:51] <ubotu> xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels
[05:51] <JuJuBee> K
[05:51] <kraut> !xubuntu-channels
[05:51] <ardchoille> bluffer_: It's setting up the software you installed.. you're one step closer :)
[05:51] <JuJuBee> I will try them all then...

[05:51] <CheshireViking> Paddy_EIRE, your welcome
[05:51] <genii> JuJuBee: I mean order does not matter much. TYes, just paste them to the end
[05:52] <JuJuBee> If it works, the nI will remove some to determine which ones are needed.
[05:52] <CheshireViking> Paddy_EIRE, don't know about OpenSUSE, I've never tried that so I wouldn't like to say
[05:52] <genii> jujubee back up over the --
[05:52] <genii> THEN put the options in
[05:52] <JuJuBee> leave it there or remove it altogether ?
[05:52] <bluffer_> btw this is not a clone of first child this is a second child (did oem install to check out if it did all the magic automatically but no that too didnt give x auto but ended up in shell)
[05:53] <genii> jujubee It can go at the end again
[05:53] <JuJuBee> K
[05:53] <genii> but should not strictly be essential to boot
[05:53] <moonlite> there are two programs that let you manage profiles and lockdown your desktop etc. what are their names?
[05:53] <moonlite> (i can't remember :/)
[05:54] <ardchoille> !sabayon
[05:54] <ubotu> sabayon: system administration tool to manage GNOME desktop settings. In component main, is optional. Version 2.12.4-0ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 117 kB, installed size 1868 kB
[05:54] <ardchoille> moonlite: Maybe that? ^^
[05:55] <blanca30> ola a todos
[05:55] <zkorpio> hi, anyone knows where can i find some web that has an virtual terminal to practice linux?
[05:55] <DeLude> hi all
[05:55] <Wuilliam> hi to all, i cant to install ubuntu 32bit, i do in my PC (EM64T), when 1st run cant to initialize, only "Starting up..." and show this line: [17179757.232000]  ata1: command 0xC8 time out stat 0x50 host_stat 0x64
[05:55] <moonlite> ardchoille: yeah cool. Do you know the other app i'm referring to? Commonly mentioned together with sabayon?
[05:56] <ardchoille> zkorpio: You can download and use the ubuntu desktop ISO, it runs in ram from the cd drive without touching the hard drive.
[05:56] <DeLude> zkorpio, why not get virtual machines and practice linux there
[05:56] <ardchoille> moonlite: No, sorry :(
[05:57] <Wuilliam> who can help me??? i need to install ubuntu, but i cant
[05:57] <DeLude> why Wuilliam ?
[05:57] <techie_> Can anybody provide me with the terminal command for listing my soundcard?
[05:58] <ardchoille> techie_: lspci | grep sound ?
thanks
[05:58] <ardchoille> You're welcome :)
[05:58] <genii> techie_ It depends what command you mean. There is lspci which shows pci devices, there is also lsmod |grep snd   and other methods
[05:59] <JuJuBee> genii : no go.  When I get rid of the acpi errors I get the irq error and visa versa...
[05:59] <DeLude> In what form do i enter a wep key for my wifi? do i need -'s or :'s or just hex digits
[06:00] <He1> I'm using a radeon 9250 and trying to install beryl, the wiki says "Ensure you have the open source radeon drivers installed.", which package do i install?
[06:00] <beg1689> fglrx
maybe I do not know how to read the output. Basically my SoundRecorder program does not let me record voice. NOthing happens. And yet, I am able to hear and see DVD's and VCD's
any ideas?
[06:01] <JanK> i have just created a new user, but unfortunately he cannot use the Xlibs. the groups this user has not, but my normal user has are: "adm, dialout, dip, www-data, admin, vboxusers"
[06:01] <genii> JuJuBee: Well, I am finding a *lot* of irq/bios switches to try. But for the moment my next great hope for success is: pci=biosirq
[06:01] <beg1689> dont remember the exact name
[06:01] <moonlite> ardchoille: pessulus was the program i was searching for! :)
[06:01] <He1> beg1689: ah, xorg-driver-fglrx?
[06:01] <beg1689> yes
[06:01] <ardchoille> moonlite: Ah, yeah, that's it
[06:01] <He1> ok
the same thing happens when using "Audacity" there are beeps and silence but no voice
[06:01] <DeLude> techie_, do you have jackd installed?
[06:01] <beg1689> and you will need to run a command to configure xorg
[06:01] <JuJuBee> genii : still use the others?
[06:01] <Yodude> hey can i use Audacity to convert MP3 files into AAC files?? if no than what program do i need?
i do not know
[06:02] <beg1689> i believe it mentions it on the wiki
[06:02] <ardchoille> bluffer_: How you doing over there?
[06:02] <genii> JuJuBee: Not the acpi stuff or tyhe last 3 we added
HOw do I check or install it?
[06:02] <BlackGrim1313> Hello everyone. When i DL Ubuntu 10.6 is that a GUI or command line?
[06:02] <JuJuBee> ok.
[06:02] <genii> techie Sounds to me like a mixer issue
[06:02] <DeLude> techie_, synaptic - look for jackd
[06:02] <beg1689> Ubuntu 10.6? thats gonna be awesome
explain please
[06:03] <ardchoille> BlackGrim1313: ubuntu 6.10 desktop is gui, Ubuntu 6.10 alternate is command line
i will
[06:03] <BlackGrim1313> ok
[06:03] <ardchoille> beg1689: lol
[06:03] <Yodude> hey can i use Audacity to convert MP3 files into AAC files?? if no than what program do i need?
[06:03] <JanK> does this command "sudo iptables -A OUTPUT -m owner --uid-owner nonetwork -j DROP" only restrict network access to user "nonetwork" or probably also to the xserver?
[06:03] <beg1689> can someone tell me the name of the networking program in gnome thats usually in System->Administration->Networking
[06:03] <crimsun> Yodude: you can use GSt tools
[06:03] <kestaz> how to get latest kernel patch with git ?
[06:04] <fabiim> how do i open the same document in two different evince windows?
[06:04] <crimsun> Yodude: man gst-launch-0.10

[06:05] <Yodude> there are no examples
[06:05] <DeLude> techie_, try to change the i/o of your software to that if it supports it

[06:06] <wolferine> what are some firewalls for linux?
[06:06] <wolferine> common ones
[06:06] <crimsun> kestaz: which kernel, and which git repo?
[06:06] <twilight> does anyone know which file i should edit to automatically execute commands after boot?
[06:06] <ardchoille> bluffer_: I don't think that will interfere with the installation of that software.
[06:06] <genii> wolverine peerguardian I hear is not too bad
[06:06] <effie_jayx> the password is wpa2 :S

[06:07] <genii> wolferine: ^^
[06:07] <crimsun> twilight: ^
[06:07] <Wuilliam> i cant to install ubuntu, but i have weeks whit this and no1 solution
[06:07] <Wuilliam> :(
[06:07] <twilight> i am used to /etc/init.d/boot.local from Suse thas why i ask
[06:08] <genii> twilight They are all just in /etc/ini.d here
[06:08] <Yodude> crimsun: is there any graphical program for the job?
[06:08] <genii> *init.d*
[06:08] <dZen|n|> great NEWS going to ubuntu :D
[06:08] <CaptainMorgan> where would I set up a subdomain(s) ? /etc/apache2? , /var/www ?
[06:08] <CaptainMorgan> ?
[06:08] <crimsun> Yodude: probably, but I don't tend to use such
[06:08] <twilight> but in init.d there is a same file
[06:09] <kestaz> crimsun, 2.6 kernel latest git
[06:09] <kestaz> ;)
[06:09] <Yodude> can you tell me the name of one? or a site i can go to that describes the best ones?
[06:09] <Yodude> please
[06:09] <twilight> whats the news?
[06:09] <DeLude> Can I install daily cvs drivers on top of stable ones or do i have to remove the current ones first - genarally or particualrly for a wireless interface?
[06:09] <crimsun> kestaz: just install git-core and then use standard git commands
[06:09] <kestaz> crimsun, ok
[06:09] <Yodude> i really love the iTunes converter but i don't want to see that windows' face EVER again!
[06:09] <kestaz> i will try
[06:10] <crimsun> Yodude: I seriously don't use any gui apps to convert. Sorry.
[06:10] <jrib> !kernel | kestaz
[06:10] <ubotu> kestaz: kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[06:10] <Yodude> kk
[06:10] <Yodude> thnkx anyway c u
[06:10] <genii> twilight You just make a shell script file executing the thing you want, make it executable then stick it in /etc/init.d
[06:10] <twilight> i just wanted to set some keycodes
[06:10] <ofer> I installed dia by sudo apt-get install dia but don't know how to run it
[06:10] <twilight> ok
[06:11] <ardchoille> ofer: Applications -> Graphics -> Dia
[06:11] <berto-> ofer: probably just run dia from a shell.
[06:11] <ardchoille> ofer: Or open a terminal and type: dia
[06:11] <twilight> i will try
[06:11] <wolferine> shorewall any good?
[06:11] <genii> twilight: For something like that maybe lookup xmodmap man page as well
[06:11] <N3WB> Question: Could this computer run Ubuntu: Intel Core2 duo E6600, nVidia GeForce 8800 GTS (640MB Edition), Asus p5b motherboard and 2 gb ram (200GB HDD), Windows Vista allready installed...
[06:11] <X73> How can i prevent X from starting on 6.06 LiveCD ?
[06:11] <ofer> ardchoille: it is not in the graphics but the terminal is working thanks :)
[06:11] <berto-> anyone familiar with the AT daemon?  if I add something to the AT queue, when the time to run comes along, it just hangs in the active queue.
[06:12] <hollywoodb> X73: the "alternative" cd has a text install mode that doesn't use X
[06:12] <genii> X73 Use the alternate install cd
[06:12] <ardchoille> ofer: Your menus may not have updated yet
[06:12] <X73> ah, thanks
[06:12] <bullgard1> What is the function of the environment variable LC_ALL?
[06:12] <ofer> this is uml tool as well?
[06:12] <X73> but the alternate is 6.06 LTS ? i dont think so
[06:12] <twilight> genni: thanks i will look for it
[06:12] <N3WB> Question: Could this computer run Ubuntu: Intel Core2 duo E6600, nVidia GeForce 8800 GTS (640MB Edition), Asus p5b motherboard and 2 gb ram (200GB HDD), Windows Vista allready installed...
[06:12] <genii> X73 There is no way to pre-empt the gui installer on the standard cd
[06:12] <ardchoille> ofer: I believe so
[06:12] <genii> X73 Yes, it is
[06:12] <ofer> ardchoille: what you mean by yet
[06:13] <JuJuBee> genii : thanks for all of your help.  There are too many posibilities for me to try. I THink I will try to replace mobo instead.
[06:13] <berto-> N3WB: sounds like a fine box.
[06:13] <ardchoille> ofer: Sometimes the gnome menus need manual updating: killall gnome-panel
[06:13] <berto-> N3WB: you should get the live cd and just check it out.
[06:13] <genii> JuJuBee: Well, sorry it did not work out better. But good luck with the next attempt
[06:13] <N3WB> Ok :) Downloading one now :P
[06:13] <Wuilliam> i have this error when ubuntu runs for 1st time: [17179757.232000]  ata1: command 0xC8 time out stat 0x50 host_stat 0x64

[06:13] <hollywoodb> X73: http://mirror.cc.columbia.edu/pub/linux/ubuntu/releases/edgy/
[06:13] <berto-> actually, these days the live cd and install cd are the same one.
[06:13] <ardchoille> N3WB: Sounds good :)
[06:13] <bluffer_> the vhd size atm is 2 200 124
[06:13] <ofer> ardchoille: I think there is other drowing softare do you know about it?
[06:13] <X73> thank you
[06:14] <X73> we found a way to go to shell on drapper, and modify xorg.conf... no need for edgy.. yet :D
[06:14] <ardchoille> ofer: Drawing? as in graphics? Or mind mapping?
[06:14] <X73> hollywoodb:  thanks for the help
[06:14] <ofer> ardchoille: drawing for uml
[06:14] <X73> genii: thanks ;)
[06:14] <ardchoille> berto-: You're refering to the desktop cd, there is also the alternate cd, which has a more stable installer.
[06:15] <ZeZu> how can i tell if a pci device has a driver assigned to it ?
[06:15] <ardchoille> ofer: Oh, that I don't know.
[06:15] <genii> X73 You're welcome
[06:15] <ofer> ardchoille: ok thanks
[06:15] <ZeZu> sysfs will generate entries for it no matter what
[06:15] <pharsalus> I have a Hewlet Packard KB-0316 keyboard with 6pin DIN connector, that doesn't work with Ubuntu. Plugging in a broken USB keyboard does. Can anyone help me?
[06:16] <bluffer_> brb
[06:16] <D_Cent> everytime i stick on one of my usb-sticks, the computer crashes. who can help me?
[06:16] <robdeman> hi folks. I need to put as much storage space in my video server as possible. Im thinking of replacing the harddrives with 2x WD Caviar SE16 (500 GB, 300 MB/s, 16 MB Cache, 7200 RPM) http://www.westerndigital.com/en/products/Products.asp?DriveID=214 --- any comments on this choice?
[06:16] <hosk> hello!
[06:17] <space_ninja> ah, lot of people here :D
[06:17] <pharsalus> Yeah, I think I'll post to forums
[06:17] <berto-> ardchoille: yep, i was referring to the desktop cd.
[06:17] <berto-> N3WB: well, from ardchoille's comments, if you have any iissue with installing with the desktop cd, the alternate cd may be a good way to go.
[06:18] <ardchoille> berto- , N3WB Actually, I recommend the alternate cd for installing Ubuntu. The installer on the dapper desktop cd wasn't that great.. although this may have been fixed with the Edgy release, I don't know.
[06:18] <N3WB> Ok
[06:19] <Sonic_13> i am installing ubuntu but it seems to have frozen during the installation
[06:19] <N3WB> I tried Alternative CD but the only thing it could do was to give me boot error 21 -.-
[06:19] <Sonic_13> it has said Please wait... for at least 10-15 minutes
[06:19] <genii> robdeman: Do you have a scsi card on that box?
[06:20] <berto-> N3WB: that's odd; could it be a burn or download error.  run a checksum on the iso and check against the one posted online.
[06:20] <IdleOne> Sonic_13, at what stage of install?
[06:20] <Sonic_13> the "
[06:20] <Sonic_13> the "Select and install software
[06:20] <Sonic_13> just after i selected to install the Ubuntu Desktop
[06:20] <Sonic_13> it has said
[06:20] <hollywoodb> Sonic_13: how much memory in that machine ?
[06:20] <StoneNote> pharsalus, there is a bug report about that keyboard and it is reported as fixed in the next release of Ubuntu in April, which is Feisty. Feisty is still in Alpha and you can ask questions about it in #ubuntu+1  you can see the bug report here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/52959
[06:20] <N3WB> I downloaded via Bittorrent, shouldnt be any errors then
[06:21] <Sonic_13> 256mb ram
[06:21] <N3WB> + the ISO is on the computer which dosnt want to boot
[06:21] <IdleOne> Sonic_13, if this is an older machine it may take some time
[06:21] <N3WB> so last resort would be to try fix it with Live CD or download a Boot Disc
[06:21] <twilight> genni: thanks it works = solved
[06:21] <Sonic_13> its ben at 6% for at least 20 minutes
[06:21] <Sonic_13> and has said "Please wait"
[06:21] <hosk> is there a registration process for here?
[06:21] <ardchoille> hosk: For your nick?
[06:22] <robdeman> genii: we have SATA
[06:22] <hosk> yes
[06:22] <IdleOne> !register > hosk
[06:22] <ardchoille> hosk: /msg nickserv help register
[06:22] <hosk> thanks IdleOne and ardchoille!
[06:22] <ardchoille> hosk: You're welcome :)
[06:22] <IdleOne> no problem
[06:23] <ardchoille> hosk: Also see the pm ubotu sent you
[06:23] <berto-> N3WB: i think first thing would be to make sure your download was alright by running an md5sum.  google "md5sum +windows" to get a program to run the md5sum, then check the download section on ubuntu.com to get what the file's md5sum should be (for example, for 6.06: http://ubuntu-releases.cs.umn.edu//6.06/MD5SUMS).
[06:23] <N3WB> ok
[06:23] <ardchoille> I need to start using the bot for reg questions
[06:23] <wolferine> anyone able to DCC with xchat-gnome?
[06:23] <berto-> N3WB: if your download was good, maybe try to burn the disk at a slower speed.
[06:23] <berto-> and if that fails, well, try another installer.
[06:24] <IdleOne> ardchoille, I have been accused of using the bot to much but the bot has a ton of info
[06:24] <N3WB> ok i guess it will work with DVDs too?
[06:24] <ardchoille> IdleOne: I've been asked to use the bot when I can, I just am not used to it
[06:24] <berto-> N3WB: should, but the installer iso should fit on a regular cd.
[06:24] <N3WB> since i dont got any CDs
[06:24] <N3WB> alternative worked on dvds atleast
[06:24] <ardchoille> N3WB: You can burn a cd iso to a dvd, no problem.
[06:24] <N3WB> Ok
[06:25] <pharsalus> I have a HP KB-0316 serial keyboard that isn't detected by Ubuntu, any suggestions?
[06:25] <N3WB> I guess Nero 7 would work fine?
[06:26] <N3WB> or MagicISO or something
[06:26] <IdleOne> N3WB, yeah
[06:26] <robdeman> folks: Apache says '(98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address [::] :80'
[06:26] <robdeman> I must have made  mistake in my config
[06:26] <robdeman> but what??
[06:27] <N3WB> and if that dont work i will use Infra Recorder that Ubuntu says in their guide
[06:27] <zool2005> can anyone suggest why my camera sometimes shows jpeg file extension as .jpg and other times as .JPG? It is a pain as nautilus won't display thumbnails of .JPG files
[06:27] <ardchoille> N3WB: You're determined.. that's a good thing :)
[06:28] <Dr_willis> zool2005,  because ms often does the same thing. :)
[06:28] <Dr_willis> zool2005,  you mean .jpg and .JPG or is it actually using .jpeg ?
[06:28] <bluffer_> so it is now sitting at setting up the scrollkeeper rebuilding database
[06:29] <N3WB> ;) I've allways wanted to try Ubuntu but on my two laptops (which includes this one) it wouldnt install and since i bought myself a new desktop i decided to try on that one :D
[06:29] <zool2005> Dr_Willis, it either shows .jpg or .JPG Can I make nautilus show thumbnails of .JPG?
[06:29] <ardchoille> bluffer_: There's actually a lot for it to do since you didn't have the whole desktop + xorg stuff to begin with.
[06:29] <Dr_willis> zool2005,  proberly can. but i dont use gnome.
[06:29] <pharsalus> My HP 6pin serial keyboard isn't detected by Kubuntu, any suggestions? Will sell own soul for assistance...
[06:29] <bluffer_> 2 277 924
[06:29] <ardchoille> bluffer_: Also, remember that it is running on a, for lack of a better term, POS operating system, lol
[06:29] <zool2005> Dr_Willis, thanks anyway!
[06:30] <rwxr-xr--> how can i create my partition link on desktop?
[06:31] <bluffer_> POS = proof of s*** ?
[06:31] <StoneNote> pharsalus, I already answered you. scroll back
[06:31] <predaeus> zool2005: nautilus can show thumbnails in icon view.
[06:31] <PriceChild> bluffer_, POS is usually point of sale
[06:31] <axl_> Hi everyone. I am looking for an alternative to filemaker. Any suggestions?
[06:32] <zool2005> predaeus, not .JPG extension. I have to manually change it to .jpg to display thumbnails.
[06:32] <Dr_willis> axl_,  im betting that 90% of us dont have a clue what 'filemaker' is...
[06:32] <rwxr-xr--> how can i create my partition link on desktop?
[06:32] <cables> !repeat | rwxr-xr--
[06:32] <ubotu> rwxr-xr--: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[06:32] <axl_> Okey. Hey you 10%. Filemaker is a database program.
[06:32] <pharsalus> Ok, thanks StoneNote, didn't see your answer.
[06:32] <cables> rwxr-xr--, alt-f2, gconf-editor, I'll tell you the rest when you get there.
[06:32] <jlmoreno> jlmoreno
[06:33] <StoneNote> np
[06:33] <jlmoreno> 666666
[06:33] <Dr_willis> axl_,  there dozens of 'database' things out for linux. :) care to clarify what makes that one so special?
[06:33] <ardchoille> bluffer_: When refering to Windows, that's exactly correct, IMHO
[06:33] <rwxr-xr--> cables,: done
[06:33] <jrib> zool2005: well the good news is that on feisty, it seems to thumnail images with names like foo.JPG, what does it show as the mimetype for your images without thumbnails?
[06:33] <bluffer_> yeah i guessed so :)
[06:34] <cables> rwxr-xr--, /apps/nautilus/desktop/ then check off volumes_visible
[06:34] <ardchoille> bluffer_: Ever thought about dual-booting your Windows install with Ubuntu?
[06:34] <axl_> I have someone who is used to that one. He needs to make a cataloge of employees. So I need a program to create, modify and update a database.
[06:34] <predaeus> zool2005: weird. it shows them here. at least if I rename .jpg to .JPG and change directories and all it still shows them.
[06:34] <cables> axl_, there's no Linux version.
[06:35] <bluffer_> nope
[06:35] <bluffer_> mostly i would like some virtual machine for all my sploits
[06:35] <axl_> @cables, yes, they discontinued their linux server in 2001.
[06:35] <ardchoille> bluffer_: ok
[06:35] <cables> bluffer_, vmware?
[06:35] <bluffer_> vpc2004
[06:35] <ardchoille> cables: Microsoft Virtual PC I believe
[06:35] <rwxr-xr--> cables: i want to show all volumes.. but on desktop there is 3 volumes but i have 4.. the 4th volume is not showing there so i want to create 4th link
[06:35] <cables> i got that :)
[06:35] <zool2005> jrib, yes. It recognises it as a jpeg file and says that the file may present a security risk. It asks me to rename it to the correct extension.
[06:36] <bluffer_> yeah ms  virtual pc 2004
[06:36] <cables> rwxr-xr--, create a Launcher then for it.
[06:36] <quaal> does anyone have a problem with menu items showing up under applications?
[06:36] <bluffer_> you believe ardchoille :) didnt see the pics ? :)
[06:36] <quaal> i installed xtightvncviewer and it doesnt show in the menu
[06:36] <axl_> @ cables and willis: Is there a easy frontend to sql?
[06:36] <quaal> but its in /usr/share/menu
[06:36] <cables> axl_, no idea, but probably
[06:36] <rwxr-xr--> cables i tried to make with Launcher.. but dont know files going to txt file.
[06:36] <quaal> it did the same thing with the one i added manually
[06:37] <zool2005> predaeus, funnily enough, there is no problem if I change it from .jpg to .JPG once the thumbnail has been displayed. The problem only occurs when I try to view the files on my camera's memory card or when I transfer them without changing the extension first.

[06:40] <N3WB> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Core_2_Duo_Support here it says that p5b series wont work :|
[06:40] <rwxr-xr--> cables: i create the icon.. but the icon properties is "desktop configuration file"
[06:40] <cables> denis_on_ubuntu, you're not supposed to see an icon for wireless.
[06:40] <Wuilliam> linux_manju: yeah, but whitout opertive system, how can i do to take the source
[06:40] <Wuilliam> :(
[06:41] <denis_on_ubuntu> oh - so how do i connect to something?
[06:41] <cables> rwxr-xr--, yep, now double click on it and it should take you to the partition..
[06:41] <denis_on_ubuntu> like is there a way for me to see a screen where i can choose what connection to choose and connect to?
[06:41] <jc-denton> humm
[06:41] <predaeus> zool2005: yea looks like there is some logic behind the thumbnail handling. they are all in ~/.thumbnails and got a different ID. No idea.
[06:41] <jrib> zool2005: http://www.gnome.org/learn/admin-guide/2.14/mimetypes-database.html
[06:41] <bluffer_> ok seems like i have to save state again maybe
[06:41] <jc-denton> i don't find 2.6.19 in the backports
[06:41] <cables> rwxr-xr--, there's another way you can do it that you might like better. Right click on the partition, hit "make link", and drag the link to your desktop
[06:41] <ardchoille> bluffer_: In case I'm not around later, there's one more command you will probably need: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[06:42] <linux_manju> Wuilliam, Normally leave i on for a while It settles down and comes up.. May be upto 10 minutes
[06:42] <jc-denton> however there must be a way to get it easily running
[06:42] <linux_manju> Wuilliam, Sometimes tweaking Bios helps..
[06:42] <jc-denton> i mean what do you do if you have hardware that is not supported in 2.6.17
[06:42] <bluffer_> ardchoille  so whan this scroll keeps all scrolls what should i get ?
[06:42] <robdeman> genii: nice I guess the rest of the mainboard  / cpu wil not get too hot eh?
[06:42] <bluffer_> the prompt will be back ?
[06:43] <ardchoille> bluffer_: it should return you to the shell prompt, then yo enter that command I gave you and it should fire up gdm (login screen) so you can log into gnome.
[06:43] <bluffer_> and itype in sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[06:43] <ardchoille> bluffer_: yes
[06:43] <jc-denton> or can i jus use the kernel  image from feisty
[06:43] <jc-denton> ?
[06:43] <genii> robdeman Well, put them in the case as far from the mb as you can. But we had several machines wi4 of these in and tightly packed. No heat alarms etc
[06:43] <bluffer_> ok  then it will get me into ubuntu in all glory hopefully
[06:44] <ardchoille> bluffer_: I hope so, the you can play :)
[06:44] <genii> depinko Did you get a tar/encrypt answer yet?
[06:44] <rwxr-xr--> cables: when i try to open it.. the msg comes is. "Do u want to Run hd8, or display its contents " "hd8" is an executable file. when i try to run it nothing happens.. when i try to  Display it .. so the txt file opens.
[06:44] <bluffer_> if it happened then i should thank you you for twenty days worth of effort :)
[06:44] <ardchoille> bluffer_: hehe
[06:44] <N3WB> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Core_2_Duo_Support here it says that p5b series wont work with PATA/IDE stuff, well my DVD WRiter is IDE (Ye i should bought a ATA i know) Do i need to use a USB Memory Stick? or should i try to see if it works first?
[06:44] <cables> rwxr-xr--, try the link method I told you about
[06:45] <N3WB> Because if i need a USB Memory Stick i would need to buy that too now
[06:45] <denis_on_ubuntu> cables
[06:45] <bluffer_> even it it didnt happen i would like to thank you very much for all the effort to get me till here
[06:45] <cables> denis_on_ubuntu
[06:45] <bluffer_> ardchoille thanks a lot
[06:45] <denis_on_ubuntu> cables when i try to do iwconfig it just gives me  Mode:Managed  Access Point: Invalid
[06:45] <denis_on_ubuntu>           RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
[06:45] <webguy> how do i check to see what my servers ip address on the network is?
[06:45] <ardchoille> bluffer_: You're quite welcome. I like to help :)
[06:45] <cables> denis_on_ubuntu, don't ask me... I have no idea how to fix it.
[06:45] <rwxr-xr--> cable .. well i right click on it but the make link option is disable.
[06:45] <cables> denis_on_ubuntu, tell the whole channel
[06:45] <denis_on_ubuntu> heh ok :) sorry to bug ya :)
[06:45] <denis_on_ubuntu> the whole channel?
[06:46] <JuJuBee> I need a tested motherboard for a core 2 duo 2.13?  Can someone make suggestion?  I have not built a custom linux system before.
[06:46] <samuel> im having trouble with munpack to handle mime messages, any ideas of a more robust mime tool?
[06:46] <ZeZu> N3WB, thats your best bet, or removable hdd
[06:46] <bluffer_> hope fully if it ran i would be bugging people of ubuntu-effects :)
[06:46] <samuel> command line mime tool?
[06:46] <dimeotane> is there somewhere that users can make / give package requests for upcoming editions of ubuntu?
[06:46] <denis_on_ubuntu> i'm new to linux sorry - what do you mean by whole channel cables?
[06:46] <webguy> how do i check to see what my servers ip address on the network is?
[06:46] <ZeZu> N3WB, you could do a netinst for reg debian, but you'll find that unless you find some drivers to use, it wont recognize your NIC either
[06:46] <cables> rwxr-xr--, alt-f2, gksudo nautilus /media , then try again with the link
[06:46] <jc-denton> so what options do i have to get 2.6.20 or ~19 running
[06:46] <jc-denton> besides compiling it myself
[06:46] <cables> denis_on_ubuntu, the IRC channel you're on :)
[06:47] <ardchoille> bluffer_: Yes, the eye candy can be awesome
[06:47] <robdeman> genii: thx 4 da info
[06:47] <cables> denis_on_ubuntu, I don't know much about wireless configuration. Don't ask a question to a specific member of the IRC channel, ask everyone.
[06:47] <webguy> anyone? kind of ipconfig on widows
[06:47] <runge> hI. I got dual screen working, but for some reson I can not get a "notifier" to work on both screens for each pannel. any ideas?
[06:47] <cables> webguy, are you looking for ifconfig?
[06:47] <denis_on_ubuntu> ok
[06:48] <genii> depinko If not, use: sudo gpg -c ` tar -czvf <input_file>`  to compress/encrypt , then sudo tar -xzvf `gpg -x <input_file>` for decompress/unencrypt
[06:48] <bluffer_> i ve seen it working on arch-linux :) thats why i went in to get it in local pc
[06:48] <webguy> think so - will that give me my current ip address on the network for the box cab?
[06:48] <webguy> cables
[06:48] <cables> webguy, yep
[06:48] <webguy> ill try one sec
[06:48] <bluebaron> Hi all, I'm after some help. Anyone able to help me see my ubuntu shared older in windows?
[06:48] <bluffer_> i think arch-linux or may be some thing else i have a three minutes avi
[06:48] <genii> depinko just gpg <filename> in second command may be enough
[06:48] <cables> bluebaron, shared with Samba?
[06:49] <webguy> think so - will that give me my current ip address on the network for the box cab?
[06:49] <ardchoille> bluffer_: http://img168.imageshack.us/img168/8689/20070221desktoplf1.png
[06:49] <bluebaron> not entirely sure
[06:49] <Dr_willis> !samba
[06:49] <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
[06:50] <genii> robdeman np
[06:50] <wolferine> test
[06:50] <chris_mac> hey guys, i need a little help. im a noob to linux
[06:50] <Dr_willis> bluebaron,  to get windows to see the ubuntu shares - you need to enable the home diretory shares, (or add other shares) then give the users a samba passwd with 'sudo smbpasswd -a USERNAME' (is how i do it)
[06:50] <cables> chris_mac, ask away
[06:50] <chris_mac> i just installed ubuntu and i cant get it to work with my WAP
[06:50] <Dr_willis> bluebaron,  also samba has some docs you can install
[06:50] <Dr_willis> For a good samba background Install 'sudo apt-get install  samba-doc '  and read the Books that wil/usr/share/doc/samba-doc/htmldocs/using_samba " and " /usr/share/doc/samba-doc/htmldocs/ " docs WELL worth reading. l be in ..   "
[06:50] <orangey> hey all!
[06:50] <zool2005> thanks all, I'll look into it. I'll see if installing Feisty fixes it.
[06:50] <chris_mac> it recognizes the WAP
[06:50] <bluebaron> i have a shared directory in windows that i can see in ubuntu, but my shared directory in ubuntu cant be seen from windows
[06:51] <chris_mac> just wont connect
[06:51] <orangey> Where do I find the gnome disk manager?
[06:51] <chris_mac> and i havent the slightest clue why
[06:51] <orangey> I can't easily find it in synaptic or in my menus
[06:51] <jrib> orangey: what version of ubuntu?
[06:51] <orangey> jrib: feisty, though I would also like the info on edgy : )
[06:51] <bluebaron> give me 5 minutes to read that
[06:52] <chris_mac> anyone have any suggestions?
[06:52] <jrib> orangey: well, afaik that application disappeared in edgy because it was unmaintained and hasn't returned in feisty
[06:52] <hemp4ever> hi
[06:52] <hemp4ever> come faccio a cambiare server?
[06:52] <Dr_willis> bluebaron,  what 'shared' diretory in ubuntu? by default its not hareing anything.
[06:53] <orangey> jrib: well, OK, maybe I'm wondering about another question..
[06:53] <orangey> I am wondering how to assign partitions
[06:53] <orangey> i.e., how to graphically manipulate fstab the ubuntu way
[06:53] <hemp4ever> hi
[06:53] <hemp4ever> I wanna change server
[06:53] <hemp4ever> help me plz
[06:54] <jrib> orangey: I don't know, I think the reasoning is that you shouldn't need to.  There is an application called pysdm in the repositories that you can try though (I have not used it myself)
[06:54] <genii> orangey Those are 2 different things (fstab and assigning patitions)
[06:54] <bluffer_> it came out of sleep and and telling me it is configuring bugbuddy or bug daddy
[06:54] <bluffer_> so it is still working
[06:54] <runge> is there a way to have the notifier thing on more then one panel?
[06:54] <asad2005> I want to install ubuntu on powermac G3 B&W, tried 5.04 and 6.10 server but the system hangs directly after loading ramdisk any help ?
[06:54] <orangey> genii: assigning partitions to a directory.
[06:55] <orangey> : )
[06:55] <nixnoob> is there any particular reason why my new kernel doesnt recognize eth0 but my old one does?  i used the same .config file from the old kernel to compile the new one...
[06:55] <linux_manju> orange_, Use gvim.. to edit the file :)
[06:55] <bluffer_> restarting cupsysd ok
[06:55] <bluffer_> nice screen shot there :)
[06:56] <bluffer_> 2 233 324
[06:56] <orangey> OK, I am likely being unclear, so let me try again.
[06:56] <bluffer_> oops 2 323324
[06:57] <denis_on_ubuntu> is there something on ubuntu that will be the same as the wireless network manager on windows? as in something that shows me a LIST of all the wireless networks around me with one to choose?
[06:57] <sanityx> When ubuntu developers fix a bug, what exactley are they fixing. I mean, isn't 99% of the software in ubuntu written by somebody outside the ubuntu team?
[06:57] <Wuilliam> :( nooo, nothing happened, i'm have this error in starting instalation: [XXXXXXXX.XXXXXX]  ata1: command 0xC8 timeout stat 0x50 host_stat 0x64, i'm reading but no1 can help me, are any1 here than can help me?
[06:57] <elwario91> hello
[06:57] <sanityx> Do they actually modify the code of the third party apps?
[06:57] <orangey> There is a partition on the drive, and I want to assign it to a directory. This was doable during installation with ubiquity. The assumption is that it was manipulating fstab. I want to do that during regular use. How do I do that The Ubuntu way. No, gvim is not the ubuntu way.
[06:57] <Dr_willis> denis_on_ubuntu,  thers similer tools.. but wireless on linux can be a bit confusing at times. sadly
[06:57] <elwario91> How to do to compile GTK2 with anjuta?
[06:58] <denis_on_ubuntu> yeah, i cant get it to work :(
[06:58] <ochosi> just a quick general question: if fullscreen video playback via tvout doesn't run smoothly, is it definitely due to old hardware? (pIII 450mhz, 256ram, atirage128 32mb, 14gb hdd)
[06:59] <linux_manju> denis_on_ubuntu, May be you should try kismet
[06:59] <sanityx> ochosi, not DEFINITELY, but highly likely.
[06:59] <denis_on_ubuntu> if it ype iwconfig i get: iwconfig IEEE 802.11b/g  ESSID:""  Nickname:"Broadcom 4311", Mode:Managed  Access Point: Invalid RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
[06:59] <denis_on_ubuntu> Link Quality:0  Signal level:0  Noise level:0 Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0 Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0
[06:59] <denis_on_ubuntu> it's almost like its off
[07:00] <denis_on_ubuntu> anyone have any idea what all that stuff means? like is my wireless even configured to receive a signal?
[07:01] <jamison_> how do you get vm ware to reconize a  usb drive?
[07:02] <xtknight> jamison_, shared folders or direct usb interfaec
[07:02] <ochosi> sanityx, any ideas what to try to save system power (apart from moving to xubuntu)?
[07:03] <xtknight> ochosi, tickless kernels can save some power.  they have one in the next fedora core afaik, but u can make one for ubuntu with a RT patch.  running 2.6.20.2 w/ tickless atm myself
[07:03] <jamison_> how do i set that up
[07:03] <slippyr4> hi all, does anyone know of a gui (gtk ideally) frontend to ssh? to make it easier to setup port forwarding etc
[07:03] <rwxr-xr--> is any log file which one records system boot info like if any problem in hardware scan on startup or checking file system .. so any log file whichone have this related info?
[07:05] <xtknight> jamison_, linux host and windows guest?
[07:05] <jamison_> yes
[07:05] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, /var/log/syslog ?
[07:05] <ochosi> xtknight thought this stuff only worked with newer hardware..?
[07:06] <jamison_> yes linux host
[07:06] <xtknight> ochosi, dont think so. afaik xp is tickless.  what pc/notebook?
[07:06] <xtknight> jamison_, either enable USB for the VM or enable shared folders in the VM's properties
[07:07] <amorphous_> hey martian - you still there?
[07:09] <ochosi> xtknight pc: pIII 450mhz, 256ram, atirage128 32mb, 14gb hdd
[07:09] <xtknight> ochosi, ah as long as you're running i386 you should be able to use the kernel tickless/realtime patches
[07:10] <ochosi> xtknight, okidoke, i assume i have to spend a night compiling my new kernel... :)
[07:10] <genii> orangey Still looking for some gui mount tool?
[07:10] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight, : this File have not that info what i want.. i m saying that when systam going start linux scan all drivers. mounting drives and to check all filesystem. i have a problem in check all filesystem in that options its show nothing "OK" message
[07:10] <orangey> genii: yes sir/ma'am
[07:11] <genii> orangey You are definitely using gnome and not kde, yes?
[07:11] <xtknight> ochosi, grab some beer , head to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=311158 and have fun :O  patches are here http://people.redhat.com/mingo/realtime-preempt/, i used older/patch-2.6.20-rt8  for kernel 2.6.20.2 full
[07:11] <peterbe> Why doesn't this work? if [ `date +%M` > 15 ] ; then
[07:12] <peterbe> It returns true nomatter what time it is.
[07:12] <ph8> hey guys! how can i change the default system pdf reader?
[07:12] <Merv> o_0
[07:12] <genii> orangey Anyhow https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GnomeMount
[07:12] <ochosi> xtknight alright, thanks man!
[07:13] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, sorry i'm not sure if that stuff is even logged
[07:13] <slippyr4> is there a vncviewer built in to edgy? how do i start it/
[07:13] <ardchoille> ph8: right click a pdf file, choose properties, go to the open with tab and set it up
[07:13] <xtknight> slippyr4, vncviewer in terminal?
[07:13] <Merv> Unkomo ingazal ubuntu ?
[07:13] <xtknight> !nl | Merv
[07:13] <ubotu> Merv: Nederlandstalige ondersteuning voor Ubuntu (en vers gezette koffie) is te vinden in #ubuntu-nl
[07:13] <slippyr4> xtknight, i thought there was a snazzier one though that allowed you to set options and stuff
[07:13] <xtknight> slippyr4, for linux? hrm i dont know
[07:13] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight, .. there is a msg like fsinfo something not creating sector.. not sure for actual whole error
[07:13] <Merv> ah lol, nice feature ;P
[07:14] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, during fsck?  just run fsck on the drive ?
[07:14] <orangey> genii: yep. I'm on ubuntu
[07:14] <denis_on_ubuntu> when i type iwconfig i get eth1      IEEE 802.11b/g  ESSID:""  Nickname:"Broadcom 4311", Mode:Managed  Access Point: Invalid ,  RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off, Link Quality:0  Signal level:0  Noise level:0, Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0,  Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0 - anyone have any ideas what the problem may be?
[07:14] <orangey> genii: truth be told, it's not for me.. I have always used fstab.
[07:14] <orangey> so anybody I put it on with would be gnome-only
[07:14] <slippyr4> xtknight, or remote desktop client, or soemthing like that
[07:14] <nixnoob> whats the command from cli for archive manager?
[07:14] <xtknight> slippyr4, depends if you use rdc or vnc protocol..
[07:14] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight,  the volume is fine on after bootup.. but during system boot this option creates problem /dev/hda5
[07:14] <xtknight> nixnoob, file-roller
[07:14] <ardchoille> nixnoob: file-roller
[07:15] <slippyr4> xtknight: well, the server is an ubuntu machine's logged in user's desktop
[07:15] <xtknight> slippyr4, probably vnc if youre using general desktop sharing
[07:15] <xtknight> slippyr4, rdc v4/v5 is xp/vista respectively
[07:15] <denis_on_ubuntu> when i type iwconfig i get eth1      IEEE 802.11b/g  ESSID:""  Nickname:"Broadcom 4311", Mode:Managed  Access Point: Invalid ,  RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off, Link Quality:0  Signal level:0  Noise level:0, Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0,  Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0 - anyone have any ideas what the problem may be?
[07:15] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight, : the file system is vfat for that partition whichone creates problem on boot
[07:16] <slippyr4> xtknight, ok. i just found gnome-rdp in synaptic. might this be what i want?
[07:16] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, run fsck on it.  "sudo fsck.vfat -a /dev/hda5"
[07:16] <xtknight> slippyr4, youd need an rdp server for ubuntu, thats an rdp client
[07:16] <xtknight> slippyr4, you have a vnc server (gnome desktop sharing) on the linux pc unless you setup an rdp
[07:17] <slippyr4> ok
[07:17] <xtknight> denis_on_ubuntu, what is the problem?
[07:17] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight, : can i paste 4 lines on main? or in ur pvt?
[07:17] <rwxr-xr--> there is a problem
[07:17] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, ok just pm me
[07:18] <rwxr-xr--> i pasted..
[07:19] <omha> i just tool dell's linux survey between the linux dists i could pick i found ubuntu :D
[07:19] <denis_on_ubuntu> xtknight
[07:19] <omha> took*
[07:19] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, i responded in pm
[07:20] <rwxr-xr--> i dont get any msg
[07:20] <ardchoille> omha: :)
[07:20] <xtknight> alright maybe it's a nick reg problem i'll repost here
[07:20] <rwxr-xr--> ok
[07:20] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, not a very common issue ("FSINFO sector").  maybe run fsck without -a next time.   supposedly without the "-a" (automatically fix) option, it will prompt you to create a FSINFO sector,  then press yes
[07:20] <orangey> genii: hmm. This is not exactly what I'm looking for. The current setup doesn't even show the NTFS partition in places or places > computer, which seems to be the starting point for this thing.
[07:20] <ardchoille> xtknight , rwxr-xr-- xtknight isn't id'd to nickserv, so rwxr-xr-- won't get any pm replies
[07:20] <xtknight> ardchoille, yeah figured
[07:22] <rwxr-xr--> i tried to run without -a syntax its asking me to createone for 1 AND 2 for Do without FSINFO
[07:22] <slippyr4> xtknight, i installed the remote desktop client, and it worked (whereas running vncviewer from the shell didn't). i just entered the hostname and selected vnc for the protocol. thanks!
[07:22] <dimeotane> Can I get this command  bugproofed?   I want to make sure it's right before posting it on my blog.  This code should do a nice clean sweep of your thumbnails directory  (sometimes 100's of mb in size) and is better than delete.  And could be automatically run in chron....  $ find ~/.thumbnails/normal -type f -exec shred {} \;
[07:22] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight, : 1 is for me?
[07:23] <RainCT> Hi, how can I configure the calendar in the top bar to work with another program instead of Evolution?
[07:23] <lisapc> if I chose port forwarding in modem, can I always reset modem to factoary defaults?
[07:23] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, what?
[07:23] <faceface> ach... what wireless network configuration tools do people use
[07:23] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight,: i tried to run without -a syntax its asking me to createone for 1 AND 2 for Do without FSINFO
[07:23] <ardchoille> RainCT: I have been looking for a way to do that for two years
[07:23] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, ah yes 1
[07:23] <rwxr-xr--> okie thanks
[07:23] <xtknight> faceface, network-manager
[07:24] <xtknight> slippyr4, hrm so RDC works for vnc?  never knew.  thanks for the report though.  rdc client gives you extra options?
[07:24] <RainCT> ardchoille: and you haven't found it?
[07:24] <faceface> xtknight, what config does network-manager read? because my version fails to 'see' eth1 (my network card)
[07:24] <ardchoille> RainCT: No
[07:24] <RainCT> ardchoille: :(
[07:25] <rogue780> RainCT, ardchoille, ya'll could just write another plugin to use thunderbird vice evolution
[07:25] <active> hi

[07:31] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight, : check ur pm
[07:31] <slippyr4> ardchoille, tried that, same error, although not (in the console) it says jon is not in the sudoers file
[07:31] <orangey> genii: how is it unmaintained? Does that mean it doesn't compile? or has major bugs?
[07:31] <eth01> wolferine: its ok... could be better nut ok lol
[07:31] <eth01> but *
[07:31] <ardchoille> slippyr4: Ah, you aren't in the sudoers file.. which means you can't sudo, that is the underlying reason it didn't work.

[07:31] <slippyr4> ardchoille, not sure why I am not though. "jon" is the use i created during install, and in fact the only non-root user
[07:31] <genii> orangey It is due for inclusion in final release of Feisty but can still use the Edgy HAL backend etc so compiles from source atm
[07:31] <orangey> genii: really! Well, that's great.
[07:31] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, it should be fine anyhow.  run fsck on it again and see if you get any more errors
[07:31] <rogue780> RainCT, no idea.

[07:35] <Xif> how do I restore it?
[07:35] <xtknight> Super_Pollos, is that really a tv tuner card or just a video out device?
[07:35] <orangey> genii: thank you : )

[07:41] <xtknight> nixnoob, one hour 20 mins perhaps
[07:41] <denis_on_ubuntu> xtknight - sorry i couldnt answer earlier - um, the problem is I am not sure how to connect to wireless. Like i follow the instructions, but is there something that shows me a list of wireless networks around me or something like that?
[07:41] <ubuntu__> was attempting to resize, but it wouldn't resize correctly
[07:41] <denis_on_ubuntu> that i can click on like in windows and just hit "connect"?
[07:41] <nixnoob> xtknight thanks.
[07:41] <obstfliege> how can i get the current timestamp? with date maybe?
[07:41] <rwxr-xr--> i dont want to remove package.. want to remove installing file.

[07:42] <ubotu> GiMo: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[07:42] <xtknight> denis_on_ubuntu, maybe in network-manager?
[07:42] <GiMo> How many gb/mb's fills ubuntu on my hard drive, when its installed?
[07:42] <mando> Does anyone know how to change the order of the boot loader? - I want windows to be the first option, not ubuntu ....
[07:42] <obstfliege> xtknight, with which parameter?
[07:43] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight, .. i download the package and installed it now i want to remove that package not installed item.
[07:43] <denis_on_ubuntu> hm, i dont think so - it just asks me to specify network name (ESSID) and the password - which i do, but it doesn't seem to "read" any networks around me
[07:43] <mando> I'm not sure, whether it is not the kernel, that needs to be changed
[07:43] <denis_on_ubuntu> i'm a total noob at this so i'm not even sure i configured the network card properly
[07:43] <denis_on_ubuntu> the wireless one
[07:43] <xtknight> obstfliege, 'date' with no parameters lists a date and timestamp, do you need anything else?
[07:43] <totalwormage> xtknight: thanks a lot! it worked (i figured out how to change it in gxine) :] ] ] ] 
[07:43] <AtypicalChuck> Why am I getting a "bash: git: command not found" error in the terminal?
[07:44] <obstfliege> xtknight, i dont see the timestamp
[07:44] <xtknight> AtypicalChuck, you don't have git installed
[07:44] <obstfliege> xtknight, i mean just the number 1248304983205 whatever
[07:44] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, `gksudo synaptic` and use that to remove packages?
[07:44] <xtknight> obstfliege, oh, julian?
[07:44] <AtypicalChuck> How do I install git? I need it :)
[07:44] <xtknight> obstfliege, Tue Mar 13 14:44:16 EDT 2007 is what it shows for me.  you want like 234324432?

[07:51] <mando> genii: :D
[07:52] <thespaceantelope> There is a problem with my IRQ 15
[07:52] <xtknight> thespaceantelope, how did you deduce that?
[07:52] <redbox> if all I have is a 60G NTFS drive that contains XP and I try to install Ubuntu, will it auto-resize and partition a spot for the Ubuntu install?
[07:52] <genii> redbox No
[07:52] <xtknight> redbox, no you will need to request a resize youreslf
[07:52] <thespaceantelope> because it would say IRQ15 disabled, Nobody Cared
[07:52] <xtknight> thespaceantelope, what motherboard?
[07:52] <redbox> xtknight: using?
[07:52] <thespaceantelope> I'm on an Acer Travelmate Laptop.
[07:53] <xtknight> redbox, the ubuntu partitioner (gparted).  it can resize NTFS afaik
[07:53] <thespaceantelope> I don't know the motherboard
[07:53] <rogue780> if I run a apt-get dist-upgrade will it upgrade from dapper to edgy?
[07:53] <redbox> xtknight: is that an option I'll get during the install?
[07:53] <xtknight> thespaceantelope, do you know that it's related to the dvd problem?
[07:53] <AtypicalChuck> Ok, I figured out how to install the git package with "sudo apt-get install git-core" :)
[07:53] <xtknight> redbox, can't confirm that NTFS resize is available during install, but i believe it is
[07:53] <CheshireViking> is there a way of connecting a Samsung D900 mobile phone to ubuntu so I can copy photo's off the onto the hard drive, I've tried BitPim, but that doesn't recognise the phone
[07:53] <xtknight> redbox, use the gparted livecd, it's a more reliable system
[07:53] <nsg> xtknight: is cd iso available?
[07:53] <xtknight> nsg, yes hold on
[07:53] <thespaceantelope> I believe so.
[07:53] <nsg> ok
[07:54] <thespaceantelope> When I would install xubuntu it would say IRQ15 disabled.
[07:55] <thespaceantelope> Maybe i'm making the wrong connection and it has nothing to do, how else might by DVD drive problem be fixed? When I try to mount hdc it says that it cannot be found
[07:55] <xtknight> nsg, http://releases.ubuntu.com/6.10/
[07:55] <thespaceantelope> I tried mounting it and I get this message: Message from syslogd@ubuntu at Tue Mar 13 12:12:16 2007 ...

[07:55] <xtknight> thespaceantelope, hrmm.
[07:56] <xtknight> redbox, get gparted livecd here http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[07:56] <redbox> xtknight: thanks
[07:56] <xtknight> redbox, it's a more reliable option than the ubuntu one
[07:56] <[Tuxedo] > Is there anyone that knows how to disable the root file system check!? I can't boot linux without having to wait 30 minutes for it to go through 600gb worth of hard drives!!
[07:56] <xtknight> thespaceantelope, is hdc the dvd drive?
[07:56] <thespaceantelope> I don't know.

[07:57] <genii> thespaceantelope: I would suggest going into the bios and putting the hd controller into IDE emulation/compatability mode
[07:57] <thespaceantelope> I went into Bios and it's severely lacking in options.
[07:57] <thespaceantelope> HD controller into IDE emulation mode? what would that do?
[07:58] <Darius08x> Ok, I just recently installed fiesty fawn herd to my laptop using the mini.iso. The only problem I had was it was a text interface. So I typed the command "sudo apt-get install gnome" Which then installed gnome.
[07:58] <xtknight> probably only applies with sata controllers
[07:58] <metallic> et
[07:58] <Darius08x> But now whenever I start up ubuntu I get this message

[07:58] <xtknight> thespaceantelope, well somehow we need to figure out the block device of the dvd drive.  hold on.
[07:58] <thespaceantelope> I've been tryign to get this working for around a month.
[07:59] <nsg> xtknight: i guess its the live cd... is all packages too availble for download as cd image
[07:59] <thespaceantelope> thanks.
[07:59] <Kronuz> hello
[07:59] <charl_ie> Darius08x: try apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[07:59] <Kronuz> hey, how can I resize a partition?
[07:59] <Darius08x> ok, ttrying that now
[07:59] <[Tuxedo] > Wait a second. xtknight: I don't even -have- bonager.
[07:59] <xtknight> thespaceantelope, pastebin output of "sudo lshw -class disk" please
[07:59] <xtknight> [Tuxedo] , you need to download it

[07:59] <[Tuxedo] > So if I download it, it will stop checking my file system?
[08:00] <xtknight> nsg, i do not believe so, i'm not sure
[08:00] <thespaceantelope> I use that command in the terminal?
[08:00] <xtknight> nsg, individual ones are available
[08:00] <Kronuz> thanks ardchoille :)
[08:00] <xtknight> [Tuxedo] , not sure, i think it will let you say 'yes, scan' or 'no, don't scan'

[08:00] <nsg> ok
[08:00] <AtypicalChuck> Is there anyway to make the Ubuntu image viewer display animated GIF's as actually animated instead of just a single frame?
[08:01] <Darius08x> ok, it says its installing the ubuntu desktop now.
[08:01] <thespaceantelope> I put that command into the terminal and it didn't work.
[08:01] <xtknight> thespaceantelope, what did it say?
[08:01] <Darius08x> This is going to take about 25 minutes it says.
[08:01] <Darius08x> I'll be back later if it doesn't work, thank you for the help.

[08:02] <ubotu> wick2o: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[08:02] <rogue780> hello wick2o
[08:03] <wick2o> I use a preseed file and manually setup my nic
[08:03] <wick2o> however i have two network cards...is it possible to setup both nic's in a preseed file?
[08:03] <thespaceantelope> It says IDE
[08:03] <soundray> AtypicalChuck: not really -- it's a still image viewer. You can use showimg to play animations, or the Gimp.
[08:03] <xtknight> thespaceantelope, i need the whole output of the command in a pastebin
[08:04] <xtknight> !pastebin | thespaceantelope

[08:04] <soundray> AtypicalChuck: maybe firefox is the easiest way
[08:04] <thespaceantelope> I'll use the pate bin....but all it says in the Terminal is IDE right now. A few other things flashed.
[08:05] <thespaceantelope> ohh here we have something...just a sec
[08:05] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight, : can i psate 5 lines in ur pm?
[08:05] <Pelo> I just had a thought I would like to confirm,  since my home folder is on a seperate partiton, does that mean that I could, install a load of different distro ( to try out)  and direct them all to the same home partition and always have all my info up to date which ever parttion i chose to use at that time ?
[08:05] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, sure
[08:05] <wick2o> i guess i could use a late command and just echo "iface eth1 inet static" >> /etc/init.d/interface
[08:06] <xtknight> Pelo, yes if you select mount point as /home and use the same user name.
[08:06] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight,  i pasted .
[08:06] <soundray> Pelo: you can do this in principle. There are potential problems, though
[08:06] <thespaceantelope> there. I pastebined it
[08:06] <Pelo> xtknight,  that's waht I was thinking
[08:06] <Pelo> soundray,  please elaborate
[08:06] <fbarcenas> is there an Itunes look-a-like or equivalent for ubuntu?
[08:06] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, this is another vfat partition that you can not access?
[08:06] <wolferine> anyone use gdesklets?
[08:06] <xtknight> thespaceantelope, i need the URL of the pastebin
[08:06] <Retardedpope> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10218/ is this something I should bugreport or am I doing something wrong?
[08:06] <thespaceantelope> sorry....
[08:07] <Pelo> wolferine,  I do , what can I help you with ?
[08:07] <soundray> Pelo: if you have for example OpenOffice in two different versions in two distros, the later one may render your settings directory unusable for the older one.
[08:07] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight, yA this volume is not showing on desktop
[08:07] <xtknight> Pelo, i wouldn't trust  anything though.  make sure all the data is backed up
[08:07] <fbarcenas> wolferine, I did.. It was OK..
[08:07] <wolferine> u able to view network drives?
[08:07] <thespaceantelope> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10222/
[08:07] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, what happens if you try to mount it from the terminal?
[08:07] <genii> Pelo Changes you make in one dist will leave remnants in the default settings for that user which the other dist may not know what to do with... etc
[08:07] <fbarcenas> wolferine,  gdesklets is the equivalent of the dashboard in OSX..
[08:07] <rwxr-xr--> nothing
[08:07] <rwxr-xr--> i mount it
[08:07] <yamo> hi
[08:07] <Pelo> wolferine,  I have no network drives but I would assume you need to give the desklet the proper path
[08:07] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, anything at the end of dmesg?
[08:07] <xtknight> thespaceantelope, ok, the cd drive is indeed /dev/hdc
[08:07] <wolferine> never used OSX
[08:08] <xtknight> thespaceantelope, regretfully i really don't know why it's saying the IRQ stuff
[08:08] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight,  check Ur pm
[08:08] <ubuntu__> iaew gente
[08:08] <wolferine> yeah, proper path, being what Pelo?
[08:08] <thespaceantelope> ok...i'll try to mount it to /media/cdrom
[08:08] <ubuntu__> acabai de estala o ubuntu
[08:08] <fbarcenas> wolferine, Wel,, It really has nothing to do with mapping network drives.
[08:08] <gordonjcp> simple enough question, but how do I save out an image in an email in Evolution?
[08:08] <genii> Pelo For an upgrade strategy however it works great
[08:08] <xtknight> !br | ubuntu__
[08:08] <ubotu> ubuntu__: pt is Por favor use #ubuntu-br  ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[08:08] <Pelo> wolferine,  your network drives have mount points in ubuntu ?  that path
[08:08] <wolferine> fbarcenas, i agree :)
[08:08] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight, : reply me here i aint get ur msgs in pm window.
[08:09] <wolferine> yeah, tried it Pelo, but even /home/username wouldnt work
[08:09] <fbarcenas> wolferine, My wife uses it to monitor cpu usage and to put sports scores on the desktop tht automatically update, and stuff.
[08:09] <wolferine> had to use /home instead
[08:09] <ralph_> hi all, anyone done an Ubuntu Install on a Supermicro server before, I cant get past NIC setup, the install just hangs
[08:09] <thespaceantelope> When I try to mount it, it says mount: special device /dev/hdc does not exist
[08:09] <Pelo> genii,  xtknight  sound I was thinking more in line of a learning situation
[08:09] <estupendocero> how do I mount my ipod as a removable drive? it's not automatically detecting it
[08:09] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--,  so you can mount the drive from the terminal?  i.e. `sudo mount /dev/hda8 /media/hda`?
[08:09] <xtknight> thespaceantelope, very odd.  you tried rebooting already, right?
[08:10] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight,  i mounted it already.
[08:10] <genii> Pelo If you use only 1 username on one dist and another username when booting to the other dist I see no issues
[08:10] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, ah ok.  and you can access it fine/
[08:10] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, do you just want to create a shortcut for it?
[08:10] <thespaceantelope> not at the second. But, I've rebooted hundreds of times in the past and it's never worked
[08:10] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight, : but whenever i reboot going to mount it again. again
[08:10] <Pelo> wolferine, if you can access your network drive from nautilus,  use the path provided there to specify in the desklet configuration
[08:10] <xtknight> thespaceantelope, sorry i have no idea why /dev/hdc isn't showing up
[08:10] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight, : i create a shortcut as u told me that how can i ..
[08:10] <thespaceantelope> hmm. Might it have something to do with the kernel?
[08:10] <sasch> hi all
[08:10] <soundray> Pelo: I've currently got one machine with parallel installs of dapper and feisty, and so far it has worked well with a shared home partition.
[08:10] <sasch> can help me with apt
[08:11] <wolferine> Pelo, I tried the most obvious things, im saying its a bit odd
[08:11] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight, : but the problem is when i reboot my system this volume going unmount again.. and after that i mount it again.
[08:11] <xtknight> thespaceantelope, probably a module being unloaded or something.  modules create special devices like /dev/hdc, it looks like it had been created and now has disappeared
[08:11] <soundray> sasch: you've got to say what's wrong
[08:11] <n30n> how do i repartition ubuntu
[08:11] <n30n> !partition
[08:11] <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
[08:11] <thespaceantelope> hmm
 can helo me
[08:11] <n1ce> helo
[08:11] <Pelo> ok thanks for the heads up guys
[08:11] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, ohhhh.  well add it to fstab and use "auto" for options
[08:11] <_Hummin> Hi.. I'm using ubuntu + ati drivers and get some weird stuff in blender (the 3d app)
[08:11] <xtknight> !gparted | n30n

[08:11] <wolferine> I had to use /home instead of /home/username
[08:11] <_Hummin> the suppsedly rounded edges get all jagged
[08:11] <thespaceantelope> howmight I load that a module for /dev/hdc
[08:11] <soundray> sasch: I don't know, it depends on the problem
[08:11] <Heroin01> how can i unzip a .zip file via shh?
[08:11] <wolferine> and I am not sure why
[08:11] <_Hummin> and textures seem a little weird
[08:12] <_Hummin> anyone have a clue?
[08:12] <genii> thespaceantelope: I suspect more with IDE/SATA irq 15 is well known IDE controller IRQ but not for SATA. I would recommend changing int he BIOS to emulate/behave as IDE
[08:12] <soundray> Heroin01: ssh?
[08:12] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight, .. i am newbie.. plz define how can i fstab ? Auto?
[08:12] <thespaceantelope> ok, I will try that on next reboot.
[08:12] <n1ce> i am newbie
[08:12] <noooby> i have a trendnet usb wireless dongle with a realtek chipset. How do i get it to install? all the instructiosn on the forums are for different chipsets ?
[08:12] <xtknight> thespaceantelope, anything in dmesg about /dev/hdc?  "dmesg | grep /dev/hdc" post on pastebin
[08:12] <Heroin01> hosk_ how can i unzip a .zip in command line?
[08:12] <xtknight> !fstab | rwxr-xr--
[08:12] <ubotu> rwxr-xr--: 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
[08:12] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, well open fstab.  "gksudo gedit /etc/fstab"
[08:12] <wolferine> anyone use gdesklets? ( able to view network drives)?
[08:13] <user-land> do you here also see xml parsing errors in Thunderbird lately ? for example when viewing the source of an email or opening an attachment ?
[08:13] <xtknight> Heroin01, "unzip asdf.zip"
[08:13] <soundray> Heroin01: with unzip. You may have to install it.
[08:13] <Heroin01> unzip isnt a know bash command
[08:13] <beg1689> when i witch to my wireless network using network-admin or nm-applet i lose my DNS, how can i fix it?
[08:13] <xtknight> Heroin01, sudo apt-get install unzip

[08:13] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, um do you use Beryl or anything?
[08:14] <rwxr-xr--> yeah
[08:14] <xtknight> thespaceantelope, guess there isn't anything about /dev/hdc in dmesg then.  try genii's suggestion
[08:14] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight,  i open the file through pico edit :p
[08:14] <genii> You should really stop running gksudo from a root-already prompt
[08:14] <thespaceantelope> All right.
[08:14] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, why can't you open gnome apps?  i dont know what's going on
[08:14] <_Hummin> anyone using blender 3d in ubuntu with ati drivers who don't mind double checking their xorg.conf against mine ?
[08:14] <genii> eg # <-- root prompt  $ <-- non-root prompt
[08:14] <Dreamxtreme> hi all
[08:14] <Dreamxtreme> i need noob help
[08:14] <rwxr-xr--> genii, : maybe..
[08:14] <xtknight> !hi | Dreamxtreme
[08:14] <ubotu> Dreamxtreme: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[08:14] <adrian_> Hello!
[08:14] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, well did you try at a $ prompt?
[08:14] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight, : i opened that file.
[08:14] <xtknight> !hi
[08:15] <micktm> #ubuntu-it
[08:15] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight,  no.
[08:15] <n30n> how do i unmount the partition so i can resize it.
[08:15] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, ok.  you will need to add an entry for /dev/hda8, vfat, /media/hda8, auto, 0 0.  see?
[08:15] <n30n> in gparted
[08:15] <xtknight> n30n, right click and press unmount under gparted
[08:15] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, also in another terminal you will need to create the folder /media/hda8.  "sudo mkdir -p /media/hda8"
[08:15] <soundray> user-land: this usually means that the package has been updated since you last started thunderbird
[08:15] <n30n> The partition could not be unmounted from the following mountpoints:
[08:15] <n30n> Most likely other partitions are also mounted on these mountpoints. You are advised to unmount them manually.
[08:15] <beg1689> can someone help me when i switched to wireless using network-admin or nm-applet/NetworkManager i lose my DNS, i know my DNS should be 192.168.1.1 how can i fix it
[08:16] <xtknight> n30n, which parition are you trying to unmount?
[08:16] <wolferine> anyone use gdesklets? ( able to view network drives)?
[08:16] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight,  i already created it..
[08:16] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, ok did you get the fstab entry added?
[08:16] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight,  well with $ gksudo gedit working
[08:16] <user-land> oh, sundray, thank you :-)
[08:16] <n30n> /dev/hda1.. the ext3 filesystem
[08:16] <ralph_> Server Install hangs after NIC setup on a supermicro server, anyone have any ideas?
[08:16] <xtknight> n30n, is that your root FS?
[08:16] <Dreamxtreme> i have installed ubuntu and am trying to install some wi-fi dirvers hoverever i cant find ones 4 my device so im trying some others and i try to do a make config but i just get errors  HELP!!!!
[08:16] <n30n> xtknight, yes
[08:17] <soundray> ralph_: does it react to Ctrl-C ?
[08:17] <xtknight> n30n, you can't resize it while in ubuntu.  use the gparted livecd: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[08:17] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight, : there is no entry for hda8
[08:17] <ralph_> doesnt react to anything
[08:17] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, right, you have to add one to the end of fstab.  do you follow?
[08:17] <rwxr-xr--> ya
[08:17] <ralph_> have to hard boot to recover
[08:17] <genii> ralph_If you told it to autodetect the adapter then it timed out and you did not manually configure it, do so
[08:17] <jamison_> can someone help me with a wine issue
[08:17] <xtknight> Dreamxtreme, ./configure; make; make install you mean?
[08:17] <fbarcenas> Which is better amarok or exaile??
[08:17] <StoneNote> jamison, red wine with beef. white with fish
[08:17] <xtknight> jamison_, i'll try
[08:17] <ralph_> NIC setup is fine, it is after the setup that install hangs
[08:18] <adrian_> Anyone know how I change the color of menues and text?
[08:18] <Dreamxtreme> yea its the linux-wlan.org ones
[08:18] <mark007> fbarcenas, amarok is more fully featured, but if you're using gnome, then exaile is an acceptable alternative
[08:18] <soundray> StoneNote: :) I was going to say I get wine issues when I have one too many
[08:18] <user-land> you were right, soundray, thanks :-) wondering if the updater could not tell me to restart it ...
[08:18] <xtknight> adrian_, themes?
[08:18] <StoneNote> soundray, :)
[08:18] <xtknight> adrian_, it depends on the program sometimes.  most use the gnome theme
[08:18] <genii> ralph_ I've had it do this when LAN was unplugged etc
[08:18] <jamison_> when i click on an exe in the ubuntu file browser it will not open with wine
[08:18] <xtknight> Dreamxtreme, paste the output of the ./configure error
[08:18] <fbarcenas> mark007,  seems to work and install perfectly fine under gnome...
[08:18] <mark007> fbarcenas: probably best to try them both and see which you like. I like exaile simply because it's gnome-based. However, I really like the featureset on amarok
[08:18] <ralph_> happens wether LAN is plugged or not
[08:18] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight,  i set the line like u said.
[08:19] <jamison_> when i do it in wine file browser it will
[08:19] <n1ce> test
[08:19] <n1ce> hi
[08:19] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, ok paste the line you added
[08:19] <Dreamxtreme> rite o im in win at the mo ill be back
[08:19] <rwxr-xr--> xtknight,: /dev/hda8       /media/hda8     vfat    auto            0       0
[08:19] <whatspy> is /etc/crontab.hourly/ able to "run" symlinks ?
[08:19] <adrian_> xtknight: i sorry I meant the menues and text in the dropdown menues in the panels
[08:19] <mark007> fbarcenas: amarok has a lot of kde dependencies, but if you've got them on your computer already, by all means, use which one suits you best
[08:19] <ralph_> i  have tried 3 different iso's thinking I had corrupt file on CD, but is the same every time
[08:19] <LittleCCCC> i want to see service starting at boot ?
[08:19] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, looks good.  save fstab, exit.  then type "sudo mount -a" at the terminal
[08:19] <genii> ralph_ Well, as a test manually enter the info. Make sure gateway is correct
[08:19] <fbarcenas> mark007,  amarok seems to work and install perfectly fine under gnome...
[08:19] <soundray> whatspy: it should, if the link target is executable
[08:19] <xtknight> adrian_, yeah gtk themes can do that.  www.gnome-look.org
[08:20] <fbarcenas> mark007,  if I run amarok does that mean I will consume more system resources?
[08:20] <mark007> fbarcenas, yes, it definitely works. There's a slightly longer startup time, but that's not that big a deal
[08:20] <whatspy> soundray: ah, makes sense, I didn't set the right flags
[08:20] <xtknight> rwxr-xr--, next time you reboot, /dev/hda8 should be mounted automatically
[08:20] <adrian_> xtknight: ok, I want white text with black bg, know of any?
[08:20] <rwxr-xr--> okie thanks xtknight  :)
[08:20] <ralph_> done that, install hangs between completion of NIC setup and start of next install step. Even skipping the NIC setup doesnt make any diff
[08:20] <mark007> fbarcenas, slightly more. I'm not sure of the exact figures, but it's probably not that big a deal
[08:20] <jamison_> when i click on an exe in the ubuntu file browser it will not open with wine
[08:20] <xtknight> adrian_, not off the top of my head, sorry
[08:21] <soundray> rwxr-xr--: I suggest changing the last 0 to 1
[08:21] <jamison_> when i click on an exe in the ubuntu file browser it will not open with wine
[08:21] <jamison_> when i click on an exe in the ubuntu file browser it will not open with wine
[08:21] <jamison_> when i click on an exe in the ubuntu file browser it will not open with wine
[08:21] <jamison_> sorry
[08:21] <LittleCCCC> how i can see service starting at boot ?
[08:21] <n30n> !iso
[08:21] <ubotu> To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <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.
[08:21] <soundray> rwxr-xr--: (fsck priority, see man fstab)
[08:21] <xtknight> soundray: what do the last 0 0s do
[08:21] <jamison_> button stuck
[08:21] <fbarcenas> mark007,  Yeah, your right.. synaptica takes care of loading me up with whatever I need to make amarok work, so I will just go with that.
[08:21] <n30n> !burning
[08:21] <ubotu> CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus cd burner (Gnome), gtoaster, xcdroast, cdrecord (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[08:21] <genii> ralph_ Go to console 4 and see what it's working on then
[08:21] <mark007> fbarcenas, sounds good :)
[08:22] <IdleOne> lol apokryphos he said sorry
[08:22] <adrian_> xtknight: What's the diff between gtk 1.x and gtk 2.x?
[08:22] <apokryphos> so I see
[08:22] <ralph_> ok, thx. be back later if necessary
[08:22] <jrib> can you upgrade packages using the desktop cd's?  i.e. can you add them as cd-rom repositories?
[08:22] <xtknight> adrian_, ummm well ubuntu has gtk 2.x, you will need a gtk 2.x theme
[08:22] <soundray> xtknight: the first one is for dump (don't know what it means, probably historical) and the second one is for fsck priority (man fstab)
[08:22] <LittleCCCC> guys i want to see service starting at boot ?
[08:22] <xtknight> adrian_, also metacity themes work.  metacity covers window borders and stuff, gtk covers menus/etc i think.  you have both metacity and gtk 2.x
[08:23] <soundray> LittleCCCC: for a graphical system services manager, have a look at bum
[08:23] <soundray> !info bum > LittleCCCC
[08:23] <LittleCCCC> no i see bum
[08:23] <genii> LOL
[08:23] <rwxr-xr--> will be back reboot time.
[08:23] <n1ce> helooooo
[08:23] <n1ce> my name is n1ce from indonesian
[08:23] <LittleCCCC> i want to see it starting with system boot like fedora?
[08:23] <fbarcenas> mark007, OMG, it has like a zillion dependencies, python, ruby, and dozens of libs..  but I guess it will be well worth it since every one seems to rave about it.
[08:23] <soundray> LittleCCCC: you want to see boot messages?
[08:24] <LittleCCCC> yes
[08:24] <genii> dmesg
[08:24] <xtknight> ahh no usplash
[08:24] <mark007> fbarcenas, python, ruby, etc are all important anyway.
[08:24] <soundray> LittleCCCC: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and remove all instances of "quiet"
[08:24] <bruenig> LittleCCCC, just delete the splash and quiet thing off of menu.lst
[08:24] <genii> also what soundray just said :)
[08:24] <mark007> fbarcenas, the main thing is the kde libs. It has to load all of those while running. Give it a shot though. I think you'll like it, and if you're not a minimalist then it's not that big of a deal
[08:24] <soundray> also what genii just said (your turn again, genii)
[08:24] <adrian_> xtknight: I like the the theme i'm using at the mom and just want to change this to two things. Any ideas how I do that?
[08:24] <yettenet> Ahahahah
[08:25] <yettenet> Hummin :)
[08:25] <yettenet> An Asimov-fan
[08:25] <yettenet> :P
[08:25] <genii> soundray :)
[08:25] <xtknight> adrian_, you'd have to learn how to edit gtk themes.  i don't know how personally.  but you could edit your current one
[08:25] <n1ce> please tell me about update ubuntu 6.10
[08:25] <soundray> ubotu, please tell n1ce about upgrade
[08:25] <n1ce> i'am finishing instalation from ubuntu 6.10
[08:26] <yettenet> !upgrade
[08:26] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[08:26] <n1ce> yes
[08:26] <n1ce> upgrade my ubuntu first
[08:26] <n1ce> sorry my english not good
[08:26] <adrian_> xtknight: yeah I have tried that in system/settings/themes but it changes alot of things. I don't want that
 !upgrade < thanks for your help
[08:27] <yettenet> Use ubotu as you wish... :P
[08:27] <n1ce> :)
[08:27] <yettenet> You just have to type an exclamation mark (!) at the beginning of your message

[08:27] <Heroin01> where in apache can i find the .htacess file?

[08:29] <[BTF] Chm0d> [BTF] Chm0d is gaming.  !gameinfo for more info.
[08:29] <Xif> why isn't there an "anti-deletion" protection for Gnome panels?  all you need to do is pick the wrong choice on the right-click menu and BAM, the panel is gone.
[08:29] <K3nto> !gameinfo
[08:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gameinfo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:30] <K3nto> !gameinfo | Chm0d
[08:30] <soundray> Xif: "anti-deletion protection" is called backup. As user, you are responsible for your own.
[08:30] <adrian_> xtknight: I'll look into it though. Thanks for your help :)
[08:30] <jamison_> where can i find the c: in my local folders
[08:30] <jamison_> teh virtual one for wine?
[08:30] <bruenig> Xif, just right click and readd it
[08:30] <jrib> jamison_: ~/.wine/
[08:30] <xtknight> jamison_, ~/.wine/drive_c
[08:30] <Xif> soundray: so according to you, we should also remove the Trash bin and make every delete permanent.
[08:31] <soundray> Xif: yes
[08:31] <soundray> Xif: I never use the trash bin, I use rm
[08:31] <bruenig> Xif, right click and readd it, how hard is that
[08:31] <colbert> Anyone here use MythTV and can help me set it up ?
[08:31] <Xif> soundray: also, no annoying questions for someone who wants to format his hard drive.
[08:31] <Xif> bruenig: not hard, annoying.
[08:32] <K3nto> bruenig: what were you helping me with yesterday?
[08:32] <bruenig> Xif, well I don't know where those settings are located, maybe gconf-editor, maybe .gnome2 or something but you can always keep a backup of those and then replace it
[08:32] <StoneNote> reading is annoying? so you come to irc??
[08:32] <bruenig> K3nto, yeah
[08:32] <soundray> Xif: sound interfaces like fdisk make it hard to do something unintended, without doing too much nannying
[08:32] <bruenig> Xif, for xfce panel, it always asks you to confirm, is that not the same for gnome
[08:33] <soundray> StoneNote: re-add (not read)
[08:33] <jrib> Xif: have you seen the mac commercial with the security guy for windows?  Your question reminded me of that.  It's opinion though, imo it isn't necessary since nothing drastic happens and having to confirm that would be more annoying for me.  But, you can make your argument and propose it to the GNOME developers of course
[08:33] <sanityx> To disable the graphical boot screen, and see all the status messages as it boots, do I just delete the word splash from menu.lst?
[08:33] <cables> sanityx, from the defoptions in there
[08:33] <xtknight> sanityx, remove 'splash' and 'quiet'
[08:34] <bruenig> yeah I am not a big fan of confirming stuff either but how often does anyone change the panel
[08:34] <sanityx> whats the difference between splash and quiet?
[08:34] <cables> sanityx, you shouldn't delete them from the actual kernels, because those won't carry through an update
[08:34] <Xif> jrib: give me a break
[08:34] <sanityx> cables, huh?
[08:34] <hosk> !register
[08:34] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[08:34] <Xif> if we allow to undelete random files, we should be able to undelete Gnome panels.
[08:34] <cables> sanityx, quiet makes it less verbose while it boots
[08:34] <sanityx> cables, I just want to disable the graphical boot screen with the progress bar, and see messages
[08:34] <jrib> sanityx: if you don't add quiet, you see boot messages in a small rectangle along with your splash
[08:34] <Xif> it's not that inconceivable.
[08:34] <bruenig> Xif, you can, right click and click add
[08:34] <jamison_> how do i get a exe file to run by clicking on the icon
[08:35] <soundray> sanityx: so, remove both quiet and splash
[08:35] <AlexC_> jamison_: install Wine
[08:35] <sanityx> jrib, So if I just remove quiet, I can see the splash AND the boot messages?
[08:35] <cables> sanityx, there's a section in menu.lst called defoptions. If you want to always have the splash disabled, you have to remove it from there.
[08:35] <jrib> sanityx: yes
[08:35] <soundray> sanityx: yes
[08:35] <Tangee> ok...grub problem...
[08:35] <jamison_> i have wine installed
[08:35] <trycyt> What package is ipp in?
[08:35] <sanityx> ah i see defoptions but its commented out
[08:35] <cables> sanityx, if you remove it from the kernel line, it'll start using the splash again when the kernel gets updated
[08:35] <mark007> jamison_: change the reference of the file to 'wine /location/of/program'
[08:35] <sanityx> its safe to just uncomment it?
[08:35] <trycyt> apt-file search ipp does not turn up anything.
[08:35] <jamison_> when i run it from the wine file browser it works
[08:35] <cables> sanityx, no
[08:36] <cables> sanityx, it stays commented
[08:36] <bruenig> Xif, when you put something in the trash by accident, it isn't just a button you press, there is some navigating to get it out too
[08:36] <xtknight> trycyt, what's ipp?
[08:36] <jrib> Xif: ah so you want an "undo", I misunderstood.  That's a good feature yes, the answer to your question is probably that no one has written it
[08:36] <mark007> jamison_: by right clicking and selecting properties

But port testing says OK! and I have the port forwarded in my modem. And I have added the port to my firestarter firewall.  Any ideas anyone?
[08:36] <cables> sanityx, hold on
[08:37] <gnomefreak> try that again
[08:37] <Tangee> i rejigged some partitions which caused my root partition to change from /dev/hda3 to hda2 and now grub wont work
[08:37] <Tangee> it goes straight to command line
[08:37] <sanityx> cables, ok
[08:37] <trycyt> nvm, it's in cupsys
[08:37] <jamison_> i did that and it did not work
[08:37] <trycyt> smbspool, i'm guessing is in samba?
[08:37] <cables> sanityx, remove "splash" and "quiet" from the defoptions, then save the file. Keep it commented or you'll break stuff. Save the file, and open a terminal. Run "sudo update-grub". That will update all your kernel lines in menu.lst with the new options.
[08:37] <bruenig> Tangee, just change the hd (0,2) to hd (0,1) right
[08:37] <Tangee> i can type in exactly what i have in my menu.lst and it will boot
[08:37] <xtknight> Dreamxtreme, please use pastebin next time.  to fix your problem, `sudo apt-get install build-essential`
[08:37] <Tangee> i have changed that bruenig
[08:38] <bruenig> hm
[08:38] <sanityx> cables, And if I just delete quiet, I'll get the status messages in a little box in the corner?
[08:38] <cables> sanityx, the reason the line is commented is that it's not supposed to be used by Grub, but it does get read by update-grub
[08:38] <cables> sanityx, I guess, I don't know for sure.

[08:39] <Tangee> and if i type root (hd0,1) i get Error 21: Selected disk does not exist
[08:39] <cables> sanityx, if you want to test new options, you can temporarily change them from within the Grub menu. Just highlight what you want to boot, hit E, go to the kernel line, hit E again, edit it, and hit b to boot. Once you know those options work, then you can change menu.lst
[08:39] <soundray> Vaalth: find out the manufacturer and chipset with lsusb, then search the web.

[08:40] <cables> sanityx, no problem. But be sure to make a copy of menu.lst in case things get screwed up. Then you can restore the backup from a LiveCD like Knoppix if things go wrong
[08:40] <Dreamxtrem1> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10227/
[08:40] <cables> ah, he's gone
[08:40] <jamison_> does it have to be a stand alone exe?
[08:41] <D--> Anyone know how long it usually takes posts to the HOWTO forum to get approved? :)
[08:41] <IB234> I'm running ubuntu 6.1, have onboard GeForce 6100 graphics and I've just spent about 4 hours trying to get the drivers installed with no luck, anyone fancy giving me a hand?
[08:41] <cables> IB234, sure
[08:41] <TheDebugger> It's 6.10 :)
[08:41] <cables> IB234, have you followed the instructions on the wiki?
[08:41] <AlexC_> D--: #ubuntuforums
[08:41] <cables> !nvidia | IB234
[08:41] <ubotu> IB234: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:41] <D--> oh
[08:41] <IB234> nice one, i'll take a look :)
[08:42] <D--> didn't realize there was a separate one
[08:42] <AlexC_> D--: afaik it's an unofficial channel for the forums,
[08:42] <OuZo> anybody used the "planner" tool? i need a bit of help with it. thanks
[08:42] <Dreamxtrem1> what do u reckon xtknight
[08:42] <soundray> OuZo: I've tried it. What's the issue?
[08:42] <AlexC_> !anyone | OuZo
[08:43] <ubotu> OuZo: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[08:43] <jamison_> how do you install stuff in wine
[08:43] <ph8> ardchoille: thanks!
[08:43] <AlexC_> jamison_: double click on the exe as you would normally, or go to terminal and do "wine /path/to/install.exe"
[08:43] <xtknight> Dreamxtrem1, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[08:43] <Checkka> How can I kill zombie processes?  Or find out their zombies?
[08:43] <Checkka> theyre*
[08:43] <OuZo> soundray: i want to add a predesessor to a task, but i get this error & dont know how to fix it
[08:43] <OuZo>  > You cannot add a relationship to a task with a Must Start On constraint. <
[08:43] <D--> jamison: run wine /path/to/install/file
[08:43] <xtknight> Checkka, pstree -G and kill the parent process of the zombie
[08:44] <PingFloyd> zombie process is already dead
[08:44] <D--> this will install the application to ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files or wherever it ends up going
[08:44] <OldGeezer> dell gx1 crystal onboard audio does it work with ubuntu at all??? Yes I tried the audio TS page in the forums
[08:44] <D--> If you're using GNOME, it will add an entry to open it in your top-left menu

[08:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gameinfo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:45] <[BTF] Chm0d> I'm back from the game!
[08:45] <soundray> OuZo: what happens when you edit the task properties and try to lift the "Must Start On" constraint?
[08:45] <Dreamxtrem1> yo xtknight
[08:46] <Dreamxtrem1> did u see it
[08:46] <xtknight> Dreamxtrem1, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[08:46] <soundray> OuZo: I think the option is in General-Schedule -- change it to "As soon as possible"
[08:46] <Tangee> so how come i can load ubuntu from command line grub with root (hd0,1) but that comand from terminal grub is error 21?
[08:46] <jamison_> it says that it cant open to create the directory c:\windows\temp\asdasda access is denied
[08:46] <karl-erik> Hi. I downloaded ndiswrapper, but I have no idea how I make the makefile. I tried sudo make /directory/Makefile, but doesn't help. Any idea what I can do?
[08:46] <Centaur5> Is there a fairly easy way to create a server that will can hold all the updates for the most common applications so client machines don't have to download everything?
[08:47] <OuZo> soundray: thanks, it was a mistake on my part
[08:47] <xtknight> Centaur5, debian repository?  not sure about easy though
[08:47] <soundray> karl-erik: ndiswrapper is in the repositories. Install it from there
[08:47] <snedar> hi! I installed, used and removed gtk2-engines-gtk-qt, and now all gtk applications that I run as root (like synaptic) are shown in gtk's ugly default theme instead of Human. how do I fix the root user's gtk settings?
[08:47] <fdsasdf> I'm a ;linux noob, ive downloaded network manager on windows, put it on a usb stick and put it on  my ubuntu desktop. How do i install it from there?
[08:47] <Dreamxtrem1> is that a command soz im really a linux noob with 1daze exp
[08:47] <Checkka> How can I tell if the process is a zombie? Is it just floating in the tree without any links?
[08:47] <Centaur5> xtknight: haha, would it be worth it?
[08:47] <karl-erik> Repositories?
[08:47] <jamison_> anyone know how to get around when wine says it says that it cant open to create the directory c:\windows\temp\asdasda access is denied
[08:47] <xtknight> !repositories | karl-erik
[08:47] <ubotu> karl-erik: 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
[08:47] <jamison_> while trying to install
[08:47] <xtknight> Centaur5, i'd think so
[08:47] <soundray> ubotu, please tell karl-erik about software
[08:47] <sanityx> cables, Hey man, removing quiet but leaving splash worked great. I get the status messages with the prrty splash screen :-D
[08:48] <karl-erik> Thanks.
[08:48] <Centaur5> xtknight: Wouldn't it help the servers save money on bandwidth?
[08:48] <Checkka> !software > karl-erik
[08:48] <xtknight> Centaur5, i don't see how
[08:48] <IdleOne> fdsasdf, sudo spkg -i package.name
[08:48] <sanityx> So, is the splash screen actually compiled into the Kernel or something?
[08:48] <IdleOne> fdsasdf, sudo dpkg -i package.name
[08:48] <cables> sanityx, great
[08:48] <xtknight> i think splash is in initrd or something
[08:48] <cables> !usplash
[08:48] <ubotu> To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[08:48] <Centaur5> xtknight: So I need to search for a howto on creating a debian repository?
[08:48] <cables> i guess that didn't help :)
[08:48] <fdsasdf> thanks ill try that brb
[08:48] <xtknight> Centaur5, yup
[08:48] <Dreamxtrem1> xtknight do i put that in terminal
[08:48] <Checkka> !zombie
[08:49] <Centaur5> xtknight: Okay, thanks.

[08:51] <hosk> IdleOne, probably idle here until i gain reputation
[08:51] <Jetfighter> Whats path-to-repo? The site?
[08:51] <xtknight> Jetfighter, example of what you're trying to checkout?
[08:51] <Jetfighter> i gotta find it, then i tell
[08:51] <IdleOne> hosk, gonna need to more then idle for that and besides that's my job

[08:53] <bassir> How come the text in my firefox browser in Edgy Eft is so not-smooth?
[08:54] <snedar> is there a way to speed up 'logging in' when opening an xterm window? it takes about a second now, but I think my pc should be able to do it immediately
[08:54] <Galga> should I close that report a bug window ?
[08:54] <xtknight> Jetfighter, "svn checkout http://svn.freenode.net/hyperion/branches bugfix-2006-11" afaik
[08:54] <genii> snedar You find 1 second is an interminable wait?
[08:55] <braniff> when did ubuntu 6.10 come out ??
[08:55] <snedar> gnii: I don't, but I wonder whether it's configurable
[08:55] <xtknight> !edgy

[08:56] <Galga> anyone ?
[08:56] <trond> I have a problem with a clean install of ubuntu 6.10 edgy. All kde programs crashes (amarok, kaffeine etc.). Giving this error message in the terminal:  DCOP aborting call from 'anonymous-5350' to 'kded'
[08:56] <trond> kded: ERROR: Communication problem with kded, it probably crashed.
[08:56] <trond> DCOP aborting call from 'anonymous-5339' to 'kaffeine'
[08:56] <trond> ERROR: Communication problem with kaffeine, it probably crashed.
[08:56] <moeru> Is there a way to find out what version of the fglrx driver I'm running?
[08:56] <genii> snedar If you have a swap partition at least the size of your RAM use suspend to ram
[08:56] <gortba> Hi. Does anyone know if there a way to get song information like track title, album title etc... in rhythmbox
[08:56] <xtknight> moeru, fglrxinfo ?
[08:56] <Jetfighter> E: Couldn't find package svn
[08:56] <xtknight> Jetfighter, subversion
[08:56] <PriceChild> Jetfighter, I don't recommend you use subversion repositories yet.
[08:56] <braniff> i'm about to install ubuntu 6.10 on two machines...is there an easy way to upgrade when the next release comes out next month ??
[08:56] <moeru> comes up with Mesa drivers but when I do apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx it says I'm on the latest version
[08:56] <PriceChild> !upgrade | braniff
[08:56] <ubotu> braniff: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[08:57] <Jetfighter> PriceChild, I am setting up an IRC server, I need that to get files that I need.
[08:57] <xtknight> would this be right for checking out http://svn.freenode.net/hyperion/branches bugfix-2006-11  ?    `svn checkout http://svn.freenode.net/hyperion/branches bugfix-2006-11`
[08:57] <oopsy> http://www.ralinktech.com/ralink/Home/Support/Linux.html
[08:57] <oopsy> fi I install
[08:57] <Anabelle> hey, i just installed kubuntu 6.06, i want to upgrade to edgy now, but i first ran adept update and its telling me to download 260MB first, are all the actualizations necesary before upgrading or can i remove some to reduce time of download?
[08:57] <oopsy> if I install
[08:57] <oopsy> the drivers to ralink from here
[08:57] <oopsy> http://www.ralinktech.com/ralink/Home/Support/Linux.html
[08:57] <xtknight> http://svn.freenode.net/hyperion/branches/bugfix-2006-11   *  on the first thing
[08:57] <oopsy> we'll I get a neat GUI?
[08:57] <nate_> a quick question guys.  how do I enable ssl support in kubuntu?
[08:57] <Jetfighter> ?
[08:57] <oopsy> will*
[08:57] <snedar> genii: I don't think that's what I'm looking for? I want to be able to open xterm windows quickly, suspend-to-ram sounds like suspending the pc and restoring the session immediately
[08:57] <sanityx> Anabelle, Out of curiosity, what are actualizations?
[08:57] <Anabelle> mmm upgadable packages
[08:58] <oopsy> anyone?
[08:58] <Anabelle> upgradable**
[08:58] <fdsasdf> Idleone i tried that by putting "sudo dpkg -i package./home/(myusername)/desktop/networkmanager-0.6.4/ but it didnt work
[08:58] <trond> None has a clue?
[08:58] <nate_> anyone.. ssl on ubuntu?
[08:58] <AlexC_> No, no one has a clue.
[08:58] <IdleOne> Anabelle, if asdept wants to update those packages then you should let it
[08:58] <genii> snedar Yes, that is the basic idea. As for how long it takes to load, the bottleneck is normally the hardware. eg: HD fetch time and so on.
[08:58] <soundray> Anabelle: make sure your system is up to date before you upgrade
[08:59] <hosk> i answered my own question: https://lists.ubuntu.com
[08:59] <Anabelle> i did this process with another pc yesterday and i ended up downloading open office (huge) twice
[08:59] <xtknight> trond, if you do NOT use Kubuntu, do this: "sudo rm -rf ~/.kde"  this should only be done on regular gnome ubuntu.  it should fix the problem
[08:59] <AlexC_> trond: just say you're question next time instead of just going "no one has a clue?" people are not going to go hunting up an down trying to find your question,
[08:59] <trond> ok sorry
[08:59] <IdleOne> fdsasdf, just sudo dpkg -i network-manager.deb ( or whatever the package name is ) it will install to default location dont provide a path
[08:59] <Anabelle> soundray what may happen if i dont? are all packages absolutly necesary?? i dont have a very fast connection, and it takes tooo much to update my system
[08:59] <trond> xtknight: thanks, will see if that solves the problem
[08:59] <PingFloyd> snedar: use a lighter term
[08:59] <trond> I am using edgy 6.10
[08:59] <PingFloyd> snedar: like aterm
[09:00] <xtknight> trond, actually the command may need to be "sudo rm -rf /home/trond/.kde"  (if trond is the user)
[09:00] <fdsasdf> ok thankyou idleone :)
[09:00] <xtknight> would 'sudo rm ~/asdf' point to /root/asdf or /home/user/asdf?
[09:00] <OuZo> were can i get pygtk from? its not in the repos?
[09:00] <snedar> PingFloyd: thanks, will try that one
[09:00] <Galga> is there any way to report a bug in version 6.10 ?
[09:00] <IB234> cheers! think it's sorted now.
[09:00] <soundray> Anabelle: it seems wasteful, but there's no other way.
[09:00] <xtknight> OuZo, pygtk is AKA as python gtk bindings
[09:00] <gubluntu> How do i get my server to consult localhost running bind9 for an answer on a A record query? (i.e. i am behind a firewall and my postfix cant deliver mail to iself using an external address, so i need it to return an internal one locally)
[09:00] <AlexC_> !launchpad | Galga
[09:00] <ubotu> Galga: 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/

[09:00] <AlexC_> xtknight: :P
[09:00] <OuZo> xtknight: thanks
[09:00] <soundray> Anabelle: systems tend to break if you don't update before you upgrade
[09:01] <Galga> ok thanks
[09:01] <snedar> genii: also thanks, I'll look into it
[09:01] <snedar> PingFloyd: xterm
[09:01] <xtknight> OuZo,  apt-cache search pygtk
[09:01] <trond> xtknight: still get the error after deleting .kde :\
[09:01] <braniff> where can i get a "feisty fawn" 7.04 iso ??
[09:01] <genii> snedar yw
[09:01] <Anabelle> I thought about skipping open office upgrade, if it will be more than 100MB less and it will be downloaded later
[09:01] <PingFloyd> snedar: xterm isn't usually too bad, but aterm is pretty zippy
[09:01] <xtknight> trond, did you use sudo rm /home/trond/.kde or the ~/.kde thing?
[09:01] <soundray> braniff: /join #ubuntu+1 and read the topic
[09:01] <Anabelle> am i wrong?
[09:01] <AlexC_> braniff: You do know Feisty is in heavy development
[09:01] <IdleOne> !herd5 | braniff
[09:01] <ubotu> braniff: To download Feisty Fawn Herd 5, visit http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/feisty/herd-5/ - read the release notes at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/herd5, and consider doing the tests at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing
[09:01] <xtknight> trond, i think ~/.kde points to /root/kde and that's not what you needto delete.  you need to delete /home/trond/.kde
[09:01] <vicks> hi, my feisty hangs while booting. it hangs on loading bluetooth services, ot whatever it is called. anyone knows what this can be about?
[09:01] <snedar> PingFloyd: just tried aterm, but it seems to start up as fast as xterm. I guess starting up the shell takes a second, and I'm wondering whether that's done intentionally (to stop fake logins or something)
[09:02] <braniff> thanks guys
[09:02] <AlexC_> vicks: do you know Feisty is under heavy development?
[09:02] <preaction> vicks: #ubuntu+1 would be a better place to ask about feisty
[09:02] <OuZo> xtknight: looks like i have it already... im trying to build "gtk-recordmydesktop" from source
[09:02] <PingFloyd> snedar: how are you invoking it?
[09:02] <xtknight> OuZo, python-gtk2-dev - GTK+ bindings: devel files
[09:02] <genii> Anabelle It is nothing crucial that must be applied immediately. you can defer it
[09:02] <xtknight> OuZo, -dev for compiles
[09:02] <OuZo> xtknight: thanks
[09:02] <snedar> PingFloyd: currently with alt+`, but that's the same as doing alt+f2 and typing 'xterm' (in gnome)
[09:02] <trond> xtknight: I did a sudo rm -rf /home/trond/.kde
[09:02] <Anabelle> defer? you mean i can skip openoffice genii ?
[09:03] <vicks> AlexC_: yeah. preaction: yeah, i asked there but the channel was pretty dead, i was hoping anyone here could help me
[09:03] <techie_> !bash

[09:03] <hccmb> hello there
[09:03] <xtknight> quick question: would 'sudo rm ~/asdf' point to /root/asdf or /home/user/asdf?
[09:03] <genii> Anabelle The update, yes
[09:03] <aesiamun> hello.
[09:03] <Anabelle> :D great
[09:03] <hccmb> how do i get mplayer to see the skins in installed..
[09:03] <soundray> Anabelle: genii obviously hasn't followed the whole conversation
[09:03] <aesiamun> xtknight: it would be /home/user/asdf
[09:03] <xtknight> aesiamun, thanks
[09:03] <AlexC_> vicks: that's ok then. Just I've seen like 7-8 people using Feisty and complaing when it doesn't work - not knowing it was under development.
[09:03] <genii> soundray Is it a dist-updrage?
[09:03] <Anabelle> now im scared...
[09:03] <lefty> does anyone know any of the advantages of the freespire/ubuntu agreement?, just seems kinda pointless to me.
[09:03] <genii> *dist-upgrade* rather
[09:03] <PingFloyd> snedar: if you're not invoking it as a login shell, I'm not sure why it would be delaying
[09:03] <AlexC_> lefty: #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:03] <xtknight> trond, hmm sorry i'm not sure how to fix it

[09:04] <hosk> is anybody on the ubuntu-devel mailing list
[09:04] <benfindlay> hi guys
[09:04] <soundray> genii: Anabelle wants to upgrade to edgy from dapper and hopes to skip the update-dapper step
[09:04] <faceface> ach... this is annoying... network manager only connects to my wireless network every 1 time in 10
[09:04] <aesiamun> hosk: as of last night, i am.
[09:04] <Anabelle> not the whole update dappr
[09:04] <Anabelle> just the open office files wich are the biggest
[09:04] <hosk> aesiamun, how much email do you get a day?
[09:04] <faceface> I can't get it to connect reliably ... WPA-PSK TKIP
[09:04] <aesiamun> i think i got three today.
[09:04] <vicks> AlexC_: yeah, luckily ubuntu has a quite friendly irc
[09:05] <snedar> PingFloyd: me neither :-) it's not very important anyway, I was just wondering why my pc (athlon 3000+) couldn't do that faster...
[09:05] <genii> soundray Aaaaaah
[09:05] <braniff> faceface, maybe your wireless signal is not strong enough?
[09:05] <xtknight> heh the kernel mailing list is another story :P
[09:05] <Anabelle> i will still upgrade all the other packages (about 150MB)
[09:05] <aesiamun> hosk: let me double check

[09:05] <faceface> ubotu, will you help me if I do?
[09:05] <lefty> i use it to reconnect to my home pc from work
[09:06] <genii> Anabelle You should do all of them at once when you do upgrades from a major dist to the next of the actual OS
[09:06] <AlexC_> faceface: Ubotu is a bot.
[09:06] <soothsay> Okay, does anyone get an annoying nag message when starting screen?

[09:06] <gubluntu> ubotu tell faceface about ubotu
[09:06] <faceface> no point trying to annoy him then
[09:06] <hosk> lawlercopters?
[09:06] <Anabelle> ok, i'll be patient then
[09:06] <faceface> gubluntu, are you real?
[09:06] <IdleOne> Anabelle, best time to do a dist-upgrade is late night when your ISP has the least amount of traffic. as for the updates/upgrades Adept wants to do I think you should do them and then do your dist-upgrade. you can always remove OpenOffice later
[09:06] <AlexC_> soundray: well how are we suppose to help if someone just goes "Does anyone use foo?" ... we ca'n.t
[09:06] <Jetfighter> !bot | faceface
[09:06] <ubotu> faceface: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[09:06] <aesiamun> hosk: since midnight EST i have received 3 emails from it.
[09:06] <Jetfighter> Wtf?
[09:06] <gubluntu> faceface, i hope so...
[09:06] <AlexC_> soundray: oh you mean the bot thing :P
[09:06] <Anabelle> thanks i just hoped OpenOffice  updates wont be crucial
[09:06] <faceface> hehe
[09:07] <lefty> isn;t a nag screen an advertising thing?
[09:07] <aesiamun> so I ran upgrade on feisty, and woot there goes my gnome desktop.
[09:07] <Anabelle> i still think you don't quite get me :( is there a spanish channel?
[09:07] <xtknight> aesiamun, i just updated feisty a sec ago.   am i also screwed?
[09:07] <genii> Anabelle If you are only doing a maintenance-type update then it is usually fine to defer some if they are huge. This is where I got confused and need to remove foot from mouth etc etc
[09:07] <soundray> aesiamun: get help in #ubuntu+1 please
[09:07] <hosk> aesiamun, thanks. i'm considering subscribing and maybe learning a think or two about distro development. it's encouraging to know it won't flood my inbox in a day
[09:07] <genii> soundray :)
[09:07] <IdleOne> aesiamun, join #ubuntu+1

[09:07] <aesiamun> soundray: i'm not asking for help...
[09:07] <jamison_> anyone know how to get around when wine says it says that it cant open to create the directory c:\windows\temp\asdasda access is denied
[09:07] <PingFloyd> boy, this channel is busy
[09:07] <Jetfighter> Oops >.<
[09:07] <aesiamun> just sounding off.
[09:07] <soothsay> lefty: It's not adverting exactly, it says I should have received a copy of the GPL
[09:07] <lefty> who's the best show here.......
[09:07] <jumbers> How would I be able to make my Ubuntu terminal more colorized? It seems like the only color in my terminal is when I do ls. I'm asking because I'm comparing it to my Gentoo SSH terminal.
[09:07] <soundray> aesiamun: you're still offtopic
[09:08] <aesiamun> am I?
[09:08] <xtknight> jumbers, Edit->Current Profile
[09:08] <soothsay> lefty: *Every* time I start screen. I have to hit space or enter to dismiss it
[09:08] <AlexC_> aesiamun: yers,
[09:08] <jamison_> when i click on an exe in the ubuntu file browser it will not open with wine
[09:08] <pikk> heya
[09:08] <aesiamun> interesting how a mention of ubuntu is offtop in #ubuntu.
[09:08] <jamison_> when i do it in wine file browser it will
[09:08] <faceface> aesiamun, get on topic now!
[09:08] <preaction> aesiamun: Fiesty is for #ubuntu+1. Edgy is the current release
[09:08] <IdleOne> aesiamun, yes . talk about Feisty detracts from the goal of #ubuntu ( supporting Dapper and Edgy )
[09:08] <xtknight> jamison_, rephrase your question perhaps: how do i associate a .EXE with the 'wine' command?  actually i don't know myself.
[09:08] <faceface> support?
[09:08] <lefty> soothsay: i don't know of anyway to get rid of that but i have experienced it
[09:08] <pikk> can anyone help me? i'm looking for some kind of explenation on the kvoctrain
[09:08] <soundray> aesiamun: the f word is offtopic here ;)
[09:08] <Jetfighter> jamison_, Terminal, wine program.exe
[09:08] <xtknight> where does linux store magic/mime/associations?
[09:08] <Anabelle> is there a spanish support channel on IRC?
[09:09] <optilab> hello i'm having big trouble with edgy and a P5W dh ... Anyone went through that here?
[09:09] <xtknight> !es | Anabelle
[09:09] <ubotu> Anabelle: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[09:09] <PriceChild> !es | Anabelle
[09:09] <aesiamun> faceface: i sincerely hope you were joking. :)
[09:09] <jumbers> xtknight: That just lets me change the default color. Let me show you what I mean with a screen shot. 1 moment
[09:09] <aesiamun> soundray: ok now i know :)  thanks.
[09:09] <Anabelle> yhanks
[09:09] <IdleOne> !es | Anabelle
[09:09] <soothsay> lefty: You have occasionally experienced it or always?
[09:09] <faceface> aesiamun, yeah
[09:09] <faceface> aesiamun, about what?
[09:09] <preaction> xtknight: /etc/files or /etc/mime or something, read "man file" it should have the filename in there
[09:09] <snedar> is there a search function in irssi, so that I can find some text in this chat?
[09:09] <PriceChild> aesiamun, #ubuntu is for support on breezy/dapper/edgy only. #ubuntu-offtopic explains itself. #ubuntu+1 is for feisty
[09:09] <aesiamun> faceface: telling me to get on topic "now"...
[09:09] <lefty> soothsay: always, i think theres a gnu screen irc somewhere
[09:09] <soundray> !es > Anabelle
[09:09] <xtknight>  /etc/magic
[09:09] <soothsay> snedr: /lastlog
[09:09] <lefty> soothsay: they'll be more help than i am
[09:09] <faceface> aesiamun, this is ubuntu afterall!
[09:09] <PriceChild> aesiamun, faceface lets end it there please
[09:09] <jumbers> xtknight: http://img.jnumbers.com/color_terminal.png
[09:10] <faceface> PriceChild, done
[09:10] <bytecolor> does .bash_profile _not_ get read when I log into ubuntu through the default gui?
[09:10] <snedar> soothsay: thanks!
[09:10] <xtknight> jamison_, isn't there an option to do Open With and always use 'wine' command
[09:10] <soothsay> lefty: Yeah, the thing is I don't experience it anywhere except Ubuntu
[09:10] <moonwatcher> i am not sure if thats the right place to "complaint" about this, but on the latest fiesty (did an apt-get upgrade, just now) it seems that opening eclipse cause the whole thing to slow down concideribly and be quite stuttering...
[09:10] <PriceChild> bytecolor, i had that annoyance too... .bashrc does though
[09:10] <xtknight> jamison_, like in windows..
[09:10] <jamison_> yeah
[09:10] <jumbers> xtknight: See how SAL ~# is a different color?
[09:10] <aesiamun> ok i apologize for mentioning the f word.
[09:10] <jamison_> but it wont open
[09:10] <xtknight> jumbers, hrm, yeah...
[09:10] <Flannel> moonwatcher: #ubuntu+1 for feisty support, thanks
[09:10] <soundray> bytecolor: no, neither does .bashrc afaik
[09:10] <faceface> face?
[09:10] <lefty> soothsay: so youve tried it on other distros without this nag??
[09:10] <pikk> hello?
[09:10] <moonwatcher> k
[09:10] <soothsay> Does
[09:10] <jamison_> when i go through the wine file manger it will
[09:11] <soothsay> lefty: Doesn't happen on Fedora
[09:11] <soothsay> lefty: Or Gentoo
[09:11] <pikk> hello anyone there who's ever worked with kvoc?
[09:11] <jumbers> xtknight: Should I go ask at #gentoo what causes their bash to do that and see if I can enable whatever it is on Ubuntu?
[09:11] <lefty> soothsay: hmmmm..... that is odd, there must be a workaround, i'll go and research
[09:11] <xtknight> jumbers, copy over the color settings for gnome terminal from your gentoo?
[09:11] <AlexC_> moonwatcher: you do understand Feisty is under development and not to be used everyday
[09:11] <xtknight> jumbers, maybe it's in some bash file
[09:11] <soothsay> lefty: It's okay, don't worry about it. I'll do the research
[09:12] <faceface> will network manager remember my connection details when it connects correctly?
[09:12] <bytecolor> christ, I _know_ .bash_profile was being read before because I was using the supplied test for ~/bin
[09:12] <AlexC_> faceface: I should think so,
[09:12] <lefty> soothsay: okay, i'll still take a look myself though, i've noticed the problem too on mybox
[09:12] <bytecolor> and ~/bin was being added to my PATH, but not now...
[09:12] <gubluntu> *UBUNTU ROX MY SOX*
[09:12] <xtknight> jumbers, copy .bashrc over?
[09:12] <faceface> AlexC_, in that case I don't think it connected right yet :(
[09:12] <faceface> keeps asking me for passwd
[09:12] <jrib> bytecolor: something else must have been sourcing it
[09:12] <Flannel> lefty, soothsay, sorry, came in half way, what nag with regard to screen?
[09:13] <AlexC_> faceface: I've never used it so I could be wrong,
[09:13] <TheVault> Which option do I choose if I wanna install Beryl on a Intel Chipset GFX Card? I'm curious to see how Beryl works and things but I'm not sure which option to go with XGL or AIGLX
[09:13] <faceface> how can I test the connection on the cli
[09:13] <PriceChild> bytecolor, are you on feisty?
[09:13] <Dreamxtreme> im back got some more i went to make all and this happened http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10236/
[09:13] <optilab> anyone had trouble with jmicron and 975x?
[09:13] <jrib> bytecolor: use .xprofile or .xsession  or something like that
[09:13] <bytecolor> jrib, nod... PriceChild no
[09:13] <AlexC_> TheVault: AIGLX I think,
[09:13] <xtknight> optilab, i have trouble with jmicron and 965p
[09:13] <hccmb> any one here using mplayer?
[09:13] <optilab> hey!
[09:13] <faceface> hccmb, yup
[09:13] <TheVault> AlexC: Thanks, I'll try that
[09:13] <AlexC_> !anyone | hccmb
[09:13] <ubotu> hccmb: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[09:13] <xtknight> optilab, also plenty of experience fixing c2d issues..whats up?
[09:13] <hccmb> ok, how does your dir look like where the skins are?
[09:13] <optilab> xtknight, you got a P5B?
[09:13] <bytecolor> jrib, .bashrc still works fine for non-logins
[09:13] <faceface> ubotu, change the record!
[09:13] <bassir> Hello all. I'm having a problem with Synaptic. :(
[09:13] <hccmb> and how is it named ? where is it?
[09:13] <lefty> flannel: when starting screen, i get a message about the gpl, unsure what it is and if theres anyway to stop getting it
[09:13] <jrib> bytecolor: right
[09:13] <bytecolor> hrm, wonder what was sourcing .bash_profile
[09:13] <xtknight> optilab, gigabyte 965p-ds3.  p5b is the one with the bad ACPI tables that needed a bios update isnt it?
[09:13] <faceface> hccmb, ah... not gmplayer
[09:14] <faceface> I only use cli 'mplayer'
[09:14] <fdsasdf> there isnt a .deb file idleone
[09:14] <lefty> flannel: only seems to happen on ubuntu though, sootsay says he doesn't get it on fedora or gentoo
[09:14] <soundray> bytecolor: at one point, the default .bashrc was sourcing .bash_profile
[09:14] <xtknight> hccmb, /usr/share/mplayer/skins/
[09:14] <faceface> hccmb, I never set up skins correctly here
[09:14] <xtknight> hccmb, mine has nothing in it atm
[09:14] <hccmb> thnx
[09:14] <bassir> When I open it, I get "The repository might be no longer available or could not be contacted because of network problems. If available an older version of the failed index will be used. Otherwise the repository will be ignored. Check your network connection and the correct writing of the repository address in the preferences."
[09:14] <bytecolor> soundray, oh?
[09:14] <VeganChick> is there a good place to look for instructions on how to customize ubuntu?
[09:14] <xtknight> hccmb, they are also in ~/.mplayer/skins (or can be)
[09:14] <dimeotane> whats the difference between a .deb file in the ubuntu repository and one in the debian repositories?
[09:14] <moreati> evenin all, I'm seeing something quite odd in gnome-system-monitor I'm seeing high (15-60%) CPU usage - by gnome-system-monitor. Has anyone else ever seen this? Is there a known bug or problem with gsm?
[09:15] <faceface> dimeotane, one smells funny
[09:15] <optilab> xtknight,  well i got the p5w , managed to install edgy with usb2 desactivated and jmicron too, (it seems there share irq10) but now i can log in but nothing happens, no freeze but no message nor desktop
[09:15] <PriceChild> dimeotane, debian repos are built for debian... ubuntu repos built for ubuntu
[09:15] <Dreamxtreme> xtknight: ????
[09:15] <xtknight> dimeotane, none, really.  .deb is the same file format.  however, the one from the debian repositories may have different C runtime requirements and other package requirements.  you should not attempt to install a .deb from a debian repo to your ubuntu install unless you know what you're doing
[09:15] <faceface> moreati, its not unusual
[09:15] <xtknight> Dreamxtreme, ?? what happened after buildessenti..?
[09:15] <dimeotane> PriceChild:  so their repositories cant be used in ubuntu?
[09:15] <bytecolor> soundray, but that would have put it in an infinite loop as .bash_profile checks for .bashrc :)
[09:15] <moreati> dimeotane: one is customised for ubuntu, the other for debian. It's best not to install debian debs on Ubuntu
[09:15] <Dreamxtreme> i did make config fine but i went to make all and i got this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10236/
[09:15] <faceface> dimeotane, mixing repos can be problematic
[09:16] <Kikkoman> Pardon
[09:16] <Kikkoman> Can I burn Ubuntu to a DVD?
[09:16] <xtknight> optilab, odd.  what do you mean you can "log in" fine though?  login where?  virtual term?  gdm?
[09:16] <xtknight> Kikkoman, yes
[09:16] <Kikkoman> :D
[09:16] <xtknight> Kikkoman, there are ubuntu dvds available
[09:16] <soundray> bytecolor: I could be remembering my Debian days, though
[09:16] <faceface> dimeotane, but not necessarily bad
[09:16] <Kikkoman> Do I have to do something special to the iso?
[09:16] <xtknight> Kikkoman, as for burning an ubuntu cd to a dvd that may also be possible, just not sure
[09:16] <Kikkoman> ah
[09:16] <frojnd> how do I check if apache is running ?
[09:16] <faceface> frojnd, apachctl status
[09:16] <karl-erik_> Hi. Can anyone tell me how I use the 'make'-command and what it does?
[09:16] <moreati> faceface: frankly, I'm shocked and disappointed. top doesn't suffer from it.
[09:16] <xtknight> Kikkoman, ubuntu dvd http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/6.10/release/
[09:16] <faceface> or telnet localhost:80
[09:16] <bytecolor> well... jrib thanks for the hint maybe I can track it down
[09:16] <hosk> can i install beryl on top of gnome and have it magically work? and do i have to add another apt-get server to find it?
[09:16] <beoba> hey, does feisty lack support for PPC?
[09:17] <xtknight> beoba, fesity should support the ppc arch
[09:17] <faceface> moreati, yeah, but gnome process thingy is much bigger
[09:17] <jbeez> Hallo, anyone know if I can use an http proxy with rhythmbox?
[09:17] <optilab> i can log in thru Xterm and gnome rescue session but any command typed does nothing
[09:17] <AlexC_> hosk: let me get a link - do you have ATI or nVIDIA carD?
[09:17] <bytecolor> frojnd, 127.0.0.1 in your browser
[09:17] <beoba> i noticed that the test iso's dont include PPC
[09:17] <pablo> hi! is there any way to export mails from ms outlook 2003 and import them in thunderbird installed in linux partition?
[09:17] <xtknight> beoba, i'm seeing ppc
[09:17] <beoba> where are you seeing it?
[09:17] <faceface> pablo, yes
[09:17] <optilab> xtknight, i can log in thru Xterm and gnome rescue session but any command typed does nothing
[09:17] <Jetfighter> I am now away.
[09:17] <hosk> AlexC_, hell no: i'm running edgy through vpc2007 on a laptop using a 64mb S3 card
[09:17] <sponix> is there an issue with ATI graphics chips using the regular text consoles ?
[09:17] <faceface> Jetfighter, nooo!
[09:18] <xtknight> beoba, well only up to herd4 i guess.  maybe herd5 isnt ready for ppc yet but they will have a ppc at release.
[09:18] <beoba> i was looking on some mirror last night and it had x86, x86_64, and i think spark
[09:18] <xtknight> beoba, #ubuntu+1 for feisty
[09:18] <bruenig> oh no
[09:18] <beoba> k, i'll pester them there :)
[09:18] <Checkka> how do i remove old kernels after ive updated?
[09:18] <beoba> *sparc
[09:18] <Jetfighter> ?
[09:18] <AlexC_> hosk: Not sure if it will work, but try http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install_Beryl_on_Ubuntu AIGLX
[09:18] <pablo> faceface: how can i do it?
[09:18] <faceface> so... does network manager work in feisty
[09:18] <sponix> my desktop with nvidia graphics does them fine, laptops with ATI video I just get a smeared screen, or a blank one, no login: when I (ctrl+alt+f1)
[09:18] <PriceChild> !away > Jetfighter
[09:18] <faceface> pablo, You have to google I am afraid
[09:18] <xtknight> optilab, that's weird
[09:18] <AlexC_> faceface: #ubuntu+1
[09:18] <bruenig> faceface, you woke him, why would you bring such horrors on the rest of us
[09:18] <Checkka> grub is showing my old kernels which i think is wasting space on my HD
[09:18] <xtknight> optilab, you mean gnome fialsafe?
[09:18] <xtknight> failsafe**
[09:18] <Jetfighter> When it's an amsg, deal with it.
[09:18] <faceface> sorry
[09:18] <optilab> xtknight,  yes
[09:19] <faceface> pablo, I am sure there is a way! Good luck!
[09:19] <xtknight> optilab, and that loads an xterm right?  and your keyboard doesnt work after that?
[09:19] <Dreamxtreme> xtknight: what do u reckon
[09:19] <AlexC_> what is it with everyone using Fesity all of a sudden???
[09:19] <optilab> xtknight,  i never saw such a system it's really weird
[09:19] <AlexC_> s/fesity/feisty
[09:19] <xtknight> Dreamxtreme, i need to see the log after using build essential dude
[09:19] <faceface> AlexC_, #ubuntu+1
[09:19] <hosk> AlexC_: I will bookmark the page and give it a shot when i'm feeling gluttonous for punishment :)
[09:19] <xtknight> optilab, what about trying with 'noacpi nolapic acpi=off noapic irqpoll'?
[09:19] <Dreamxtreme> how do i do that???
[09:19] <AlexC_> faceface: that was not a Feisty question, please don't get cocky.
[09:19] <Flannel> lefty, soothsay: Ah.  I believe... hmm.  Seems like starting it with any options (like -U, which is good anyway) gets rid of it, that's why I don't remember it,
[09:19] <faceface> cocky?
[09:19] <faceface> cock this!!!
[09:19] <OldGeezer> pablo once you drag an email to a disk or desktop it has an eml extension, all the email program does is compress it to a managable size, Linux should be able to handle an eml file
[09:19] <xtknight> Dreamxtreme, remember the 'sudo apt-get install build-essential' command i told u earlier.  type it. report what happens with ./configure
[09:19] <lilrayray> hi all, i am having some serious crashes with ubuntu (my computer randomly freezes up COMPLETELY).  Could anyone assist me in figuring out what might be the problem?  Also, does the kernel record error logs that might help diagnose the problem?
[09:19] <fdsasdf> I have downloaded network manager and put the folder on ym desktop from my usb stick. HOW DO I INSTALL IT! :( please help
[09:20] <bruenig> !caps
[09:20] <ubotu> PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[09:20] <AlexC_> faceface: why do that?
[09:20] <PriceChild> faceface, steady
[09:20] <xtknight> lilrayray, core 2 duo right?
[09:20] <Dreamxtreme> k brb
[09:20] <VeganChick> what's the channel for ubuntu customization?  i think it's #something-art
[09:20] <bruenig> !info network-manager-gnome

[09:20] <faceface> fdsasdf, what form did you download it?
[09:20] <aesiamun> unstable...
[09:20] <optilab> xtknight,  kbd works i tried an apt-get update or lspci but it just does nothing
[09:20] <PriceChild> !offtopic | AlexC_ faceface
[09:20] <xtknight> lilrayray, or were u the one with the pentium D
[09:20] <ubotu> AlexC_ faceface: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:20] <PriceChild> VeganChick, #ubuntu-effects
[09:20] <lilrayray> xtknight: hi again, nope Pentium D
[09:20] <faceface> thanks PriceChild
[09:20] <fdsasdf> tar.bz2
[09:20] <xtknight> optilab, i dont know.  try the kernel parameters mentioned ealrier..noapic etc
[09:20] <faceface> fdsasdf, OK, you need to read!
[09:20] <VeganChick> thanks!
[09:20] <faceface> fdsasdf, tar zxfv
[09:21] <xtknight> lilrayray, /var/log has logs
[09:21] <pablo> OldGeezer: thanks!! i ll try
[09:21] <bruenig> fdsasdf, why dont you just install the network-manager-gnome from the repositories
[09:21] <xtknight> tip: tar xf   will extract .tar, .tar.gz and .tar bgz2
[09:21] <lilrayray> xtknight: ok, anything specific to look for in the logs?
[09:21] <fdsasdf> because it wont
[09:21] <faceface> fdsasdf, tar zxfv my.tar.bz; cd the new directory; ./configure ; make ; make install
[09:21] <bruenig> fdsasdf, it wont what?
[09:21] <fdsasdf> i dont have the internet on ubuntu i need network manager
[09:21] <faceface> PriceChild, see you later ... he started it! ;)
[09:21] <xtknight> lilrayray, log files from previous session end in .0 i believe.... umm kern.log.0 perhaps
[09:22] <aesiamun> annoying.
[09:22] <aesiamun> fdsasdf: do you know how to start a terminal?
[09:22] <fdsasdf> faceface, do i just type that in the terminal. im a linux noob
[09:22] <bruenig> fdsasdf, well believe me compiling network manager without an internet connection will be quite a feat, because you are going to need build-essential as well as some other packages I am sure
[09:22] <optilab> xtknight,  already have that noapic ahci  etc , anyway thanks i'll try to work this out or try another distro
[09:22] <xtknight> optilab, hrm tried Feisty yet with the C2D?
[09:22] <dsquare> omg please help! i added a partition and now i cant find it!!!
[09:22] <dsquare> how do i get to my new partition?
[09:22] <xtknight> dsquare, how did you add the partition?
[09:22] <bruenig> dsquare, what is the name of your partition
[09:22] <fdsasdf> aesiamun: yes
[09:22] <lefty> flannel: is there a script i can change somwhere to start screen with options when i boot up straight into it?
[09:23] <optilab> xtknight,  you think feisty fawn have better support? i'm dling it
[09:23] <aesiamun> wait you want to compile network manager?
[09:23] <xtknight> optilab, definitely.  flawless on my C2d
[09:23] <fdsasdf> yes
[09:23] <lilrayray> xtknight: should I past it in pastebin?
[09:23] <xtknight> lilrayray, sure
[09:23] <aesiamun> do you have all the development libs?
[09:23] <StoneNote> optilab, from what I see when I google, the chipset isn't supported until kernel 2.6.19
[09:23] <optilab> xtknight,  okay cool here's a hope
[09:23] <dsquare> used gnome partition manager, the name is dev/hda3 and its a ext3
[09:23] <optilab> xtknight,  yes right
[09:23] <fdsasdf> aesiamun: i dont know i just downloaede from here http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/NetworkManager/0.6/
[09:23] <soothsay> lefty: You can use an alias
[09:23] <aesiamun> why don't you just download the binary package instead of trying to compile from source?
[09:23] <xtknight> intel ICH8 and 9xx can boot with earlier kernels just fine, however C2D marvell/jmicron pata and marvell ethernet support is severely lacking
[09:23] <bruenig> dsquare, ok try this then, sudo mkdir /media/hda3 && sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/hda3 /media/hda3
[09:24] <kaapu> bo
[09:24] <dsquare> thanks bruenig
[09:24] <aesiamun> go back to whatever computer you downloaded it on, go to a ftp mirrorsite, download the binary package and use dpkg -i to install it?
[09:24] <optilab> xtknight,  fesity ois ok for production environnement?
[09:24] <ProN00b> uuh, why isn't there a single disassembler in the repos ?
[09:24] <AlexC_> optilab: NO. It's not.
[09:24] <xtknight> optilab, not yet
[09:24] <lefty> soothsay: this being my first irc experience i don't know anythin at all about aliases, little help??
[09:24] <TheVault> Think someone can help me out. I love this firefox extension so much, I forgot that it used the SAPI 5 for Windows. Good thing is that it has the option of using Linux I assume cause when it says resource in the drop down menu. If your not sure what I'm saying, its a firefox extension that when you select text, it reads the pages to you http://clickspeak.clcworld.net/downloads.html & I was wondering how I could set this up for Linux
[09:24] <bruenig> fdsasdf, I agree with aesiamun it would be much easier to get the deb of network-manager-gnome then to try to compile it
[09:24] <xtknight> lol
[09:25] <optilab> xtknight,  hmmm
[09:25] <fdsasdf> but where
[09:25] <jumbers> Ooooh. It seems that color prompt is actually in the Ubuntu .bashrc, but it's just commented out
[09:25] <aesiamun> optilab: no it's definitely not.
[09:25] <bruenig> s/then/than/
[09:25] <dsquare> ok, bruenig after i do that, where should i look for the drive? i dont see it under "computer"
[09:25] <bruenig> dsquare, well open nautilus and go to /media/hda3 for one
[09:25] <Flannel> lefty: How are you starting screen? er, booting 'straight into it'?
[09:25] <aesiamun> fdsasdf: from an ubuntu repo.  They can be loaded up in a webbrowser
[09:25] <soothsay> lefty: I'm confused. Are you talking about screen or irssi?
[09:25] <soothsay> lefty: s/irssi/irc
[09:25] <lefty> irssi, lol
[09:25] <TheVault> never mind
[09:25] <TheVault> I found the information I was searching 4
[09:26] <dsquare> bruenig, i found it!!~
[09:26] <optilab> xtknight,  well i'll check this out, too bad i don't have much time for filing bug reports
[09:26] <xtknight> ProN00b, maybe in multiverse/universe?
[09:26] <soothsay> lefty: Can you repeat the question?
[09:26] <xtknight> ProN00b, 'disasm' in nasn
[09:26] <ProN00b> xtknight, i searched there too
[09:26] <bruenig> dsquare, do you want to set it up to automatically mount at boot?
[09:26] <xtknight> ProN00b, nasm*
[09:26] <lefty> flannel: i usually boot to the command line bash and use 'startx' but since using screen i got it to start up when just turning on
[09:26] <tuna-fish> a kernel module has stopped working correctly, how can i reload it?
[09:26] <xtknight> tuna-fish, sudo modprobe kernmod
[09:27] <dsquare> no bruenig, thanks. i might want to install windows one day but for now i have no good reason to. it will be my download drive.
[09:27] <ProN00b> xtknight, how do i invoke that ?
[09:27] <xtknight> ProN00b, sudo apt-get install nasm
[09:27] <javaJake_canHelp> tuna-fish, you can restart, or you could try removing and inserting it.
[09:27] <ProN00b> xtknight, i got nasm installed
[09:27] <fdsasdf> can someone give me a link to an Ubuntu 6.10 repository???
[09:27] <bruenig> dsquare, right but you are going to have to mount it each time unless you set it up to mount at boot
[09:27] <javaJake_canHelp> tuna-fish, to remove a module, run the following in a terminal: rmmod <module>
[09:27] <lefty> soothsay: sure, I'm new to this whole irc malark and have no idea what the term alias even means? I know that probably sounds quite odd to an experinced user. Could you explain aliases?
[09:27] <xtknight> ProN00b, dpkg -L nasm  for clues
[09:27] <bruenig> fdsasdf, archive.ubuntu.com
[09:27] <dsquare> oh ok bruenig then i would like to yes.
[09:27] <fdsasdf> ty
[09:27] <Flannel> lefty, soothsay, that welcome string is hard coded into the program: http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/Current/screen-6.1/screen/help.c  search for "enhancements"
[09:27] <dsquare> how do i do that?
[09:28] <javaJake_canHelp> tuna-fish, to insert a module, run the following: insmod <module>
[09:28] <ProN00b> xtknight, oh, aparently its ndisasm
[09:28] <javaJake_canHelp> tuna-fish, does this help?
[09:28] <xtknight> ProN00b, ya i think
[09:28] <xtknight> ProN00b, 'man ndisasm'
[09:28] <lefty> flannel: arrrgh....i might have to play around with the source code although it's probably not worth the bother
[09:28] <tuna-fish> wait a sec, trying
[09:28] <javaJake_canHelp> tuna-fish, OK
[09:28] <tuna-fish> have to save all work first
[09:28] <optilab> xtknight, aesiamun  do you know a distro that could handle this gear i'm not really up to date?
[09:28] <xtknight> optilab, fedora core 6 or opensuse 10.2
[09:29] <Flannel> lefty: just start it with -U, you'll want it in unicode anyway
[09:29] <aesiamun> optilab: which gear?  I'm sorry, i missed it.
[09:29] <soothsay> lefty: I understood that you were trying to start screen by automatically invoking some options. You can do that by using alias screen="screen -U"
[09:29] <bruenig> dsquare, do gksu gedit /etc/fstab and add this line to it: /dev/hda3   /media/hda3   ext3   user,auto,fmask=0111,dmask=0000   0   0
[09:29] <wiseelben> How come javac cannot find the Scanner class? "import java.util.Scanner" gives me a "cannot be resolved" error.
[09:29] <xtknight> distro with kernel w/ support for core 2 duo/jmicron/intel 975
[09:29] <optilab> aesiamun, p5w dh c2d
[09:29] <xtknight> edgy doesnt work with ich8, neither can use jmicron
[09:29] <javaJake_canHelp> wiseelben, how did you install Java?
[09:29] <tuna-fish> javajake_canhelp: it worked, thanks
[09:29] <javaJake_canHelp> tuna-fish, n[
[09:29] <javaJake_canHelp> np*
[09:29] <AlexC_> xtknight: afaik no distro can work with jmicron without a lot of work as it's a Kernel issue,
[09:29] <bruenig> dsquare, that line should work fine, I am so used to doing it for ntfs or fat32, where fmask and dmask are important, it is probably not as important on ext3 but it shouldn't harm anything
[09:30] <aesiamun> optilab: i'm sorry, i have no idea what that means.
[09:30] <soothsay> Flannel: The point is that it shouldn't nag you by default. Especially since no other distro has it configured like that
[09:30] <lefty> soothsay: Thanks for the help, that clears things up
[09:30] <wiseelben> javaJake_canHelp: aptgetted sun-java5-sdk
[09:30] <javaJake_canHelp> wiseelben, OK. Give me a moment...
[09:30] <TheVault> Hows everyone doing this evening?
[09:30] <xtknight> aesiamun, asus P5W DH deluxe, core 2 duo
[09:30] <dsquare> bruenig, tyvm :)
[09:30] <optilab> aesiamun,  a board with a jmicron and 975x chip
[09:30] <AlexC_> xtknight: I spent 3 weeks trying to get my Abit AB9 to work, I gave up and just brought a new motherboard - nothing worked. I emailed JMicron and they insisted there was no problem and everything was fine
[09:30] <xtknight> AlexC_, jmicron support is in the latest kernels
[09:30] <n-iCe> The terminal code to install JAVA?
[09:30] <fdsasdf> omg IM SUCH A NOOB, i cant find the network-manager-gnome.deb on archive.ubuntu.com
[09:30] <lefty> Flannel: Yeah...I'm just too lazy to type an extra few keys whilst loading up
[09:30] <AlexC_> xtknight: really? well I hope so,
[09:30] <soothsay> lefty: Put that in .bashrc so you don't have to type it everytime you log in
[09:30] <xtknight> AlexC_, it works for most people.  i actually had trouble with it but later discovered it may have been my IDE drive
[09:30] <TheVault> n-ICE: Go to Synaptics Package Manager
[09:30] <Flannel> soothsay: Since it's in the code, I imagine the other distros edited the source to remove that.
[09:31] <AlexC_> xtknight: yeah IDE hard drives/CD drives mess it up
[09:31] <n-iCe> TheVault,  and search JAVA ?
[09:31] <TheVault> n-ICE: Search Sun Java
[09:31] <n-iCe> than you
[09:31] <n-iCe> thank
[09:31] <aesiamun> aesiamun: ah, no i don't.  You could try some of the source distros or maybe FC6
[09:31] <lefty> soothsay: Ah yes .bashrc, that's what I was lookin for, thanks!!
[09:31] <TheVault> n-iCE: Yuppers, Thats what I'm doing right now to install this extension that I really love!!!
[09:31] <fdsasdf> found it
[09:31] <fdsasdf> i tihhkn
[09:31] <soothsay> Flannel: Is it hardcoded to start every time? (As opposed to only the first time)
[09:31] <xtknight> AlexC_, ahh really so you had trouble with cds also?
[09:32] <TheVault> Question: What good program, a replacement for Nero?
[09:32] <xtknight> AlexC_, well i put in a promise ide controller and i still got errors with one of my cd drives :\...i was thinking libata problem maybe, or cdrom drive problem
[09:32] <javaJake_canHelp> wiseelben, it works over here... hmmm...
[09:32] <function1> why wont my battery charge over 70%?
[09:32] <xtknight> TheVault, k3b
[09:32] <TheVault> xtknight: Is it just like Nero?
[09:32] <AlexC_> xtknight: yep. with my CD drive I could not boot Edgy to install Ubuntu, but when I found a spare CD drive it would boot up and install - but after installing I could not boot into Ubuntu
[09:32] <aesiamun> function1: faulty battery?
[09:32] <xtknight> TheVault, not really.  there is nerolinux but imo k3b is better yet
[09:32] <Flannel> soothsay: display_copyright() is the function.  that file doesn't call it.  Let me check
[09:33] <xtknight> TheVault, there isn't really a good Nero clone
[09:33] <optilab> ok for those who need it here's a link : http://www.hentges.net/misc/howtos/p5wdh/index.shtml
[09:33] <genii> function1: It's getting old and won't hold a full charge anymore?
[09:33] <xtknight> regretablly
[09:33] <wiseelben> javaJake: you installed the ones in the repos right?
[09:33] <AlexC_> xtknight: if everything is SATA - it works, afaik. But there is a latest BIOS version that should fix all these problems, so update you're bios
[09:33] <javaJake> wiseelben, yes.
[09:33] <lilrayray> xtkinght: funniest thing happened; every time I clicked "paste" my computer froze!!!
[09:33] <function1> aesiamun: i dont think so. its very new. it used to charge, but now the little battery icon just has a red circle with a dash over it
[09:33] <xtknight> AlexC_, well the cd drive wouldnt work because JMicron support is not in the Edgy kenrel
[09:33] <function1> but no errors
[09:33] <TheVault> xtknight: Alrighty, I'll take your suggestion. I'm just thinking of all the software Iv used for Windows and getting a replacement for Linux & so far Iv found almost everything :)
[09:33] <xtknight> AlexC_, i used a usb cd drive with dapper personally
[09:33] <lilrayray> xtknight: I tried it three consecutive times, and it froze every time
[09:34] <javaJake> wiseelben, can I see the exact error output? PM me if you want.
[09:34] <xtknight> lilrayray, weird.  did you get the log on pastebin?
[09:34] <aesiamun> function1: it has nothing to do with the OS, the battery charging is done in the hardware.
[09:34] <javaJake> wiseelben, this will help me debug your issue.
[09:34] <lilrayray> xtknight: not that I know of, it just died the instant I clicked paste
[09:34] <malex> The regular install CD _is_ a live CD as well, right?
[09:34] <aesiamun> function1: it might not be reporting itself correctly.  Or you might need to discharge it completely and recharge.
[09:34] <xtknight> lilrayray, oh that sucks :O
[09:34] <AlexC_> malex: Desktop is LiveCD,
[09:34] <bruenig> dsquare, now that I think of it, it is probably best if you replace all those options with defaults, so the line should look like this, if you want to edit it: /dev/hda3   /media/hda3   ext3   defaults   0   0
[09:34] <xtknight> lilrayray, upload the logs somewhere?
[09:35] <function1> k. maybe i'll poke around in bios too..
[09:35] <lilrayray> xtknight: umm, ok
[09:35] <cheeseboy> how do i install kernel source?
[09:35] <malex> AlexC_: Thanks.
[09:35] <javaJake> lilrayray, namely pastebin.ca
[09:35] <xtknight> cheeseboy, sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[09:35] <erUSUL> !kernel > cheeseboy
[09:35] <aesiamun> function1: you probably won't find much in there.  A full discharge just involves unplugging the computer and letting it drain fully.
[09:35] <dsquare> ok bruenig thank you. :)
[09:35] <xtknight> cheeseboy, actually those are just headers (*.h) but that's all you need for compiling stuff.  source is on kernel.org i think
[09:36] <xtknight> cheeseboy, er actually linux-source pkg for *.c files also
[09:36] <n-iCe> TheVault,  doesn't found something
[09:36] <cheeseboy> thnx
[09:36] <javaJake> wiseelben, according to what Google's telling me, it sounds like "Cannot be resolved" means Java couldn't find a specific path either on your hard-drive or across the web.
[09:36] <function1> aesiamun: also, the little gnome applet tells me the battery still has 100% capacity. k i guess i'll just let it drain then. thanks
[09:37] <Heroin01> Cam someone help me to make a bASh script
[09:37] <aesiamun> function1: if you can find some hard drive intensive task, it'll help drain the battery.
[09:37] <wiseelben> javaJake: hum, do you know the confi file ubuntu uses to check which dirs to get the java stuff from?
[09:37] <Heroin01> i just need it to run a few commands
[09:37] <javaJake> Heroin01, best channel for that in the world is #bash. Really helpful.
[09:37] <javaJake> Heroin01, oh, OK
[09:37] <genii> Heroin01: What do you need it to do?
[09:37] <Heroin01> THANK U
[09:37] <TheVault> n-iCE: It should have. Do you have all the respitories enabled?
[09:37] <Heroin01> THANKS U SO EVREddggf
[09:37] <Heroin01> (K)
[09:37] <aesiamun> wifi + brightest display + drive spinning = 3 hour life max
[09:37] <n-iCe> TheVault, yes
[09:37] <lefty> Anyone here tried RatPoison??
[09:38] <xtknight> and cpu burn in?
[09:38] <xtknight> :P
[09:38] <genii> Heroin01 And yes, javaJake's suggestion is a good one to take your question there :)
[09:38] <javaJake> lefty, yea, and it killed me. ;)
[09:38] <TheVault> n-iCE: are you searching for the java software or the plugin or both?
[09:38] <lefty> lol
[09:38] <POVaddct> lefty: i am not sure if you meant this, but put "startup_message off" in your .screenrc
[09:38] <optilab> what is the defaut password when sudo is not working?
[09:38] <xtknight> optilab, what do you mean?
[09:38] <lefty> .screenrc?
[09:38] <javaJake> wiseelben, usually Java looks to the CLASSPATH and PATH variables, but that was on Windows... let me peek around here a bit.
[09:39] <javaJake> wiseelben, in the meantime can you tell me what the error was exactly?
[09:39] <POVaddct> lefty: werent you talking about the startup message of screen?
[09:39] <wiseelben> javaJake: "sudo update-alternatives --config java" allwows you chose which java install to use
[09:39] <optilab> seems my system is not completely installed, that's why sudo is not working so i want to use su
[09:39] <TheVault> n-ICE: If all fails, go to the Add/Remove Programs under Applications. Then search Java there and your bound to find it
[09:39] <wiseelben> javaJake: I pmed you
[09:39] <lefty> Yeah, sorry, in /etc/screen?
[09:39] <VeganChick> i don't know which version of beryl to use...
[09:39] <bruenig> optilab, what do you mean sudo isn't working
[09:39] <javaJake> wiseelben, you... did?
[09:39] <Ash-Fox> !openoffice
[09:39] <ubotu> a free and open source office suite, including word processor, spreadsheet, presentation, vector drawing and database components.  To install: "sudo apt-get install openoffice.org". User help available in #users.openoffice.org
[09:39] <javaJake> wiseelben, try again
[09:39] <sidny4_> to get my wireless to work I have to type in modprobe ndiswrapper, how do I make the computer load ndiswrapper automatically?
[09:39] <wiseelben> javaJake: try runnig that command, do yu see any "sdk" ones? I only see the runtime ones
[09:39] <assasukasse> how do i set my swap partition on another hdd to be automatically used at ubuntu bootup?
[09:39] <xtknight> sidny4, put it in /etc/modules
[09:39] <POVaddct> lefty: /etc/screenrc is system-wide, ~/.screenrc is user-specific
[09:39] <Ash-Fox> Any chance I can get a newer version of OpenOffice (like 2.1) instead of 2.0.4 through some alternative repositories for edgy?
[09:39] <wiseelben> javaJake: nvm, here is the pastebin: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10238/
[09:40] <optilab> well sudo leave the console with no reaction for ever
[09:40] <bruenig> assasukasse, put it in the fstab
[09:40] <javaJake> wiseelben, *+        2    /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun/jre/bin/java
[09:40] <erUSUL> assasukasse: add a line to fstab
[09:40] <javaJake> wiseelben, that's it.
[09:40] <javaJake> wiseelben, but that's because you are going about that the wrong way. :)
[09:40] <assasukasse> bruenig: what is the sintax
[09:40] <bruenig> assasukasse, what is the name of your device, /dev/....
[09:40] <javaJake> wiseelben, when you use update-alternatives, it is asking what version of that program you want to use.
[09:40] <assasukasse> /dev/hdc3
[09:40] <soothsay> POVaddct: Thanks (RE: startup message)
[09:40] <erUSUL> assasukasse: use the one you already have as a template
[09:40] <javaJake> wiseelben, so if you want different SDK's, you want different "javac"s.
[09:40] <lefty> ah, thanks POVaddct, should .bashrc also work??
[09:41] <wiseelben> javaJake: i see..
[09:41] <TheVault> n-iCE: Did you find it?
[09:41] <soothsay> Flannel: Problem solved: startup_message off in screenrc
[09:41] <assasukasse> erUSUL: i don't have swap at now since i have 768mb ram
[09:41] <bruenig> assasukasse, ok it should look like this /dev/hdc3 none            swap    sw              0       0 (put this in /etc/fstab)
[09:41] <POVaddct> lefty: .bashrc has nothing to do with screen
[09:41] <bruenig> wow those spaces are big
[09:41] <assasukasse> thanks bruenig
[09:41] <xtknight> optilab, where are you at the moment typing sudo?
[09:41] <POVaddct> lefty: .bashrc is the startup file for interactive bashes
[09:41] <n-iCe> TheVault,  says is installed
[09:41] <optilab> xtknight,  in the terminal in xterm failsafe
[09:42] <javaJake> The import java.util.Scanner cannot be resolved - sounds like you don't have Scanner installed... :?
[09:42] <hosk> ls
[09:42] <hosk> doh
[09:42] <xtknight> optilab, hm root already, no?
[09:42] <lefty> POVaddct: ahhhhhhh, im an idiot, yeah, thankyou, you saved me from an elementary error
[09:42] <TheVault> n-ICE: Then its installed then. What are you needing java for, If I may ask
[09:42] <xtknight> optilab, does it show # or $ at the prompt
[09:42] <Flannel> soothsay: I figured there was something like that.  I didn't look though.  But really, you should be starting with unicode as well, so I don't know if that's doable in the rc, or only the parameter, but you may want to look into that
[09:42] <wiseelben> javaJake: isn't Scanner a standard Java class and shuold be included in the SDK?
[09:42] <javaJake> wiseelben, I know... :P
[09:42] <optilab> xtknight,  $
[09:42] <xtknight> optilab, sudo -i  ?
[09:42] <bruenig> optilab, what does sudo apt-get update do for instance
[09:43] <soothsay> Flannel: Okay thanks
[09:43] <n-iCe> TheVault,  open limewire
[09:43] <n-iCe> i can't
[09:43] <optilab> xtknight,  it make the termibnal hang and typing ctrl+c doesn't kill the process
[09:43] <sabrina__> j
[09:43] <javaJake> wiseelben, java -version ? In other words, are you SURE you are using the official Java 5 SDK?
[09:43] <bruenig> optilab, what does sudo apt-get update do for instance

[09:43] <soothsay> Flannel: defutf8 on
[09:43] <TheVault> n-iCE: yeah, thats going to be a problem, I had the same experience that your going through and I never got it to work. People where suggestion to use FrostWire, which is basicly Limewire but open source
[09:43] <optilab> xtknight,  i got to kill x to make it work again, but the mouse and the keyboard are still working
[09:44] <xtknight> optilab, what about what bruenig said
[09:44] <optilab> xtknight,  so it's not related to X
[09:44] <javaJake> wiseelben, take a look here: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/printthread.php?t=61942

[09:44] <javaJake> wiseelben, namely the post by "boyaci".
[09:44] <bruenig> optilab, I only ask because it might be your command that is making it hang. I have messed up commands before and had some weird stuff happen
[09:44] <wiseelben> javaJake: if I do "javac -version" it gives me the eclipse version, perhaps ecplise screwed something up?
[09:45] <javaJake> OK!
[09:45] <javaJake> That's IT!

[09:45] <n-iCe> panfist,  is like winamp, the clone
[09:45] <mEck0> I have problems booting ubuntu some times. I can't remember that I had these problem before I upgraded my nvidia-gfx driver. Also the hibernate-function doesn't work. The screen gets black after a while but the computer doesn't really shutdown. When I boot up, the progressbar below the ubuntu-logo, comes to about 50% (the half) and then stops and wont move... I must then hold down the powerkey on my laptop... I'm running Ubuntu Edgy.
[09:45] <n-iCe> TheVault,  ok thank you
[09:45] <javaJake> wiseelben, run "sudo update-alternatives --config javac"
[09:45] <optilab> xtknight,  well it's freshly installed that's why it's a bit weird
[09:46] <panfist> thanks @ xtnight and n-ice
[09:46] <javaJake> wiseelben, and select the javac that has "sun" somewhere in its path

[09:49] <vader> Hello everyone, I have got one heck of a problem, I installed 6.10 and 6.06 and Kubuntu both. The only thing I have not tried is 64 bit. What is happening is after the initial updates the laptop locks so hard it will not allow me to log in with text or nothing. Mandriva 64 bit and suse 10.2 seem to be fine on it, but I preffer Ubuntu
[09:49] <soothsay> mEck0: Hibernation/suspend problems are difficult to troubleshoot, especially with proprietary drivers. I personally can't hibernate and have intermittent issues with suspend (sadly)

[09:57] <PriceChild> ircleuser, Yes, apple have some software to help you with that... i think its "bootcamp"
[09:57] <thiesen> Is there some easy GUI interface to handle cron jobs?
[09:57] <ircleuser> ah you see i am on PPC
[09:57] <ircleuser> powerbook g4
[09:57] <bruenig> thiesen, cron itself is pretty easy

[09:57] <active> any one help please getting a error when i try and install kwlan
[09:57] <ircleuser> you need an intel mac for bootcamp
[09:57] <javaJake> n-iCe, OK
[09:57] <gopp> !ppc
[09:57] <ubotu> ppc is PowerPC.  Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up until edgy, and is now a community port.
[09:57] <bruenig> thiesen, need any help with a particular thing
[09:57] <chris2077> my school computers are macs with mac os x, how can i tell them to boot from cd before anything else?
[09:57] <javaJake> ircleuser, first you have to move your current OS into one part of the hard drive.
[09:57] <thiesen> bruenig: if you happens to live in the terminal yes... :-)
[09:57] <Dreamxtreme> yo a little help
[09:57] <gopp> chris2077 if they are ppc
[09:58] <gopp> hold the c
[09:58] <gopp> when you boot
[09:58] <PriceChild> Dreamxtreme, ask your question and see
[09:58] <thiesen> bruenig: but what I I am an GUI junkie... :-)
[09:58] <ircleuser> ok i can do that
[09:58] <javaJake> Dreamxtreme, what seems to be the issue
[09:58] <ircleuser> then?
[09:58] <bruenig> thiesen, no but seriously, the syntax is pretty easy
[09:58] <|Amon|> any ideas? i have an amd athlon xp 2600+ with a soyo kt400 dragon ultra platinum mobo...
[09:58] <wiseelben> chris2077: you shuold be able to edit where to boot first in the BIOS
[09:58] <javaJake> ircleuser, what I'd do is lookup a guide on running Windows next to Ubuntu. The steps (I assume) are essentially the same.
[09:58] <n-iCe> javaJake,  what should i type
[09:58] <wiseelben> chris2077: nvm, just do what gopp said
[09:58] <soothsay> mEck0: Yeah, so you probably won't be able to get any information about resuming from hibernation, only pre-suspend (gnome-power-daemon --verbose might not be that helpful). The other place to look is /var/log/messages for anything related to power (e.g. acpi, apm, gpm)
[09:58] <chris2077> wisellben: macs dont have bios do they?
[09:58] <active> i get a dependency is not satisfiable kdelibs4c2a error any one helppleae
[09:59] <Dreamxtreme> im trying to install som e wi-fi drivers and i ve done make config but now i do make all and get loads of rubbish i have the txt
[09:59] <bruenig> thiesen, if you explain what you are doing, you can probably figure it out after setting up one job, that is how I figured it out
[09:59] <active> i get a dependency is not satisfiable kdelibs4c2a error any one helppleae
[09:59] <chris2077> gopp:cheers
[09:59] <soothsay> mEck0: Also /var/log/acipd
[09:59] <soothsay> mEck0: Also /var/log/acpid
[09:59] <ircleuser> i'm not sure, osx and windows are strikingly different and i have different architecture javajake
[09:59] <thiesen> bruenig: I have a CS-server and I would like it to start automatically after I restart the machine
[10:00] <wiseelben> active: you will need to install that dependency. You can try downlaoding the lib directly from: http://packages.debian.org/unstable/libs/kdelibs4c2a
[10:00] <soothsay> mEck0: ... and /var/log/hibernate
[10:00] <KenSentMe> If i use dpkg -i to install an individual deb, should it install the dependencies automaticly, or should i install them manually?
[10:00] <bruenig> thiesen, that doesn't sound like a cronjob, that sounds like an init thing
[10:00] <|Amon|> any idea why my ubuntu install halts?
[10:00] <javaJake> ircleuser, oh I know, but the setup on the hard drive ought to be the same. The only forseeable catches are the resizing of partitions (is this possible with OSX partition?) and the booting of OSX (how do we tell GRUB to do this the right way?).
[10:00] <bruenig> thiesen, cron is time activated not even activated
[10:00] <bruenig> s/even/event
[10:00] <IcemanV9> |Amon|: try acpi=off
[10:00] <xhost> well i am mesmerized

[10:00] <javaJake> n-iCe, Just skip the docs
[10:00] <|Amon|> i have xp installed and im trying to run ubuntu live first so that i can run qtparted to partition my hd to do a dual boot with xp
[10:00] <PriceChild> wiseelben, please don't suggest that (active best you don't follow that advice)
[10:00] <javaJake> n-iCe, not really needed
[10:01] <active> how would i install it
[10:01] <oskude> KenSentMe, AFAIK, it depends how the .deb was build
[10:01] <active> can u dcc me pleae
[10:01] <javaJake> n-iCe, so type "no" and hit ENTER.
[10:01] <bruenig> thiesen, seems like you could add whatever command you needed to /etc/rc.local
[10:01] <soothsay> mEck0: Anyway, whatever the output I can't help you, I don't have enough knowledge about hibernate/suspend problems.
[10:01] <ircleuser> yeah i dont want booting osx to be affected in any way. i have lost my osx tiger discs so i cannot risk having to reboot from scratch ()

[10:02] <oskude> KenSentMe, means, if it was build "the debian way" it would check for depencies, but if it was build with "checkinstall" or so, you would have to install the depencies manually

[10:03] <javaJake> n-iCe, let me know when you PMed me
[10:03] <KenSentMe> oskude, i think it's installed the debian way, but it still only lists the dependencies and doesn't install them
[10:03] <Dreamxtreme> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10245/
[10:03] <active> what one do i down load
[10:03] <PriceChild> javaJake, you need to register your nick to pm
[10:03] <bruenig> thiesen, what are you trying to do again, I thought start some server or something at restart
[10:03] <n-iCe> javaJake, : DOne
[10:03] <javaJake> Dreamxtreme, are you registered on IRC?
[10:03] <xhost> can any one knows here how to configure nokia3230 with ubuntu to access internet in indua
[10:03] <javaJake> PriceChild, I did...
[10:03] <Dreamxtreme> dont know
[10:03] <xhost> can any one knows here how to configure nokia3230 with ubuntu to access internet.
[10:03] <javaJake> I've even identified!!!
[10:03] <javaJake> Grrr
[10:03] <PriceChild> !repeat | xhost
[10:03] <ubotu> xhost: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[10:03] <PriceChild> javaJake, maybe the other user needs to then
[10:03] <lilrayray> hi all, I am getting some serious, random crashes (6.10).  I have pasted my kernel.log.0, so is someone could maybe take a look at it, may be very helpful
[10:04] <xhost> thanks ubotu
[10:04] <webguy> on second thought what i really need is a hot swap.  i have a ubuntu server in my office and want to create a mirror of that server that will sit at my house and keep in sync with the one at work.  any tutuorials
[10:04] <webguy> ?
[10:04] <thiesen> bruenig: exactly... I have a machine with a CS-server on it... I want that to automatically start when I restart it...
[10:04] <javaJake> PriceChild, would a firewall do it? Say, a business network firewall? :)
[10:04] <oskude> KenSentMe, what do you mean by "lists the depencies" ?
[10:04] <PriceChild> javaJake, nope
[10:04] <|Amon|> javaJake: Get IPCop...
[10:04] <cables> When I burn an ISO by right-clicking, and it automatically erases the disc, it always coasterizes the disc. However, it works fine if I erase it using GnomeBaker first. Any ideas?
[10:04] <bruenig> thiesen, ok and do you know what the command is to start that
[10:05] <Dreamxtreme> javaJake: can u see my pm now?
[10:05] <javaJake> Dreamxtreme, no, drat
[10:05] <javaJake> n-iCe, sorry, no PMing
[10:05] <wiseelben> cables: probably because when you right-click, it is burning it too fast
[10:05] <hosk> xhost, http://akosidexter.wordpress.com/2006/10/19/xubuntu-internet-over-gprs-via-bluetooth/
[10:05] <cyris> I just finished installing fc4 onto my test machine, so now i have windows xp pro, ubuntu server 6.06 and fc4 on the same hard drive. XP and FC4 boot fine, however Ubuntu gives me this error: nvalid or unsupported executable format. any ideas #ubnutu ?
[10:05] <javaJake> |Amon|, that's not in the repos...
[10:05] <n-iCe> javaJake,  isn't working ?
[10:05] <javaJake> n-iCe, no
[10:05] <n-iCe> !paste
[10:05] <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)
[10:05] <cables> wiseelben, I choose "automatic" in both gnomebaker and in right click.
[10:05] <xhost> thank you hosk
[10:05] <POVaddct> javaJake, Dreamxtreme: you could join a new channel instead of PMing
[10:05] <slavik> The following Xorg config does not get me bigdesktop mode :( http://rafb.net/p/bygF3554.html
[10:05] <thiesen> bruenig: not as of now as I'm on my workstation atm... but if I knew how do set it up as an event then I would be able to figure it out on my own I think
[10:06] <n-iCe> javaJake, : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10247/
[10:06] <chris2077> is it worth getting any anti-v software for ubuntu, or can i rely on updates?
[10:06] <Dreamxtreme> javaJake: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10245/
[10:06] <KenSentMe> oskude, after i do dpkg -i file.deb it says this: campsite depends on libxpm4 (>= 1); however: Package libxpm4 is not installed.
[10:06] <bayziders> where is the  xorg.conf?
[10:06] <javaJake> chris2077, IMHO, it isn't worth it
[10:06] <wiseelben> cables: but their default settings might be different. I don't know how to edit nautilus' default settings, but perhaps you should look into that
[10:06] <bruenig> thiesen, there is no gui way to edit that from what I know of. All you need to do is edit /etc/rc.local, by default all that is in there is a line that says exit 0, you put the command about the exit 0, and save, then it should work
[10:06] <javaJake> chris2077, but it wouldn't hurt
[10:07] <javaJake> Dreamxtreme, ooo, I can't help with that right now
[10:07] <oskude> KenSentMe, and still installs the package or aborts ?
[10:07] <xhost> but hosk i was looking for internet on gprs over usb
[10:07] <amss> howdy
[10:07] <xhost> cable
[10:07] <javaJake> Dreamxtreme, you're looking at a minimum of 30 minutes debugging with me there.
[10:07] <javaJake> amss, hey
[10:07] <chris2077> javaJake: thanks, il keep on my to do list, near the bottom
[10:07] <amss> does anyone know how i can find my computers mac address?
[10:07] <cables> wiseelben, the dropdown menu for both shows the valid speed, and "automatic", so they seem to both be doing it at the right speed. I'll try selecting the speed specifically though. I should mention that the menu only shows one speed.
[10:07] <amss> hey java jake
[10:07] <KenSentMe> oskude, no, aborts
[10:07] <Dreamxtreme> javaJake: please it would really help
[10:07] <muppet> amss, ifconfig
[10:07] <javaJake> n-iCe, OK, let me compile some steps for you...
[10:07] <active> any one dcc me pleae to help me sort out this problem
[10:08] <makuseru> is there any way to make an avi or mpeg into just an mp3, to have just audio?

[10:08] <ubotu> active: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first.
[10:08] <javaJake> Dreamxtreme, sorry, I have 20 minutes before I have to leave.
[10:08] <hosk> xhost, oh, sorry, i'll google some more and see what i can come up with
[10:08] <thiesen> bruenig: Hangon a sec... I will check this VMware Ubuntu installation...
[10:08] <amss> duh
[10:08] <cables> amss, it's usually printed on the label at the bottom of the computer if the NIC is built-in, or on the card if it's not.
[10:08] <amss> ok muppet it was right there all the time..thanks
[10:08] <cables> amss, but ifconfig works here
[10:08] <Dreamxtreme> javaJake: ah rubbish
[10:08] <|Amon|> who here is dual booting xp and ubuntu?
[10:08] <Dreamxtreme> cheers anyway
[10:08] <javaJake> Dreamxtreme, one moment, I'll let you know if I can help..
[10:08] <falciron> What's the best game for Ubuntu?
[10:08] <amss> yeah I ran that already and didnt realizeit is the HWaddr field in ifconfig
[10:08] <falciron> Amon, I'm dual-booting.
[10:08] <javaJake> Join me on #dreamxtreme
[10:08] <cables> amss, :)
[10:08] <oskude> KenSentMe, hmm, now that i think of it, i can remember if "dpkg -i" allso installs depencies... what program are you installing ? its not in any ubuntu reposities ?
[10:09] <qaldune> falciron: try nexuiz, tremulous, frets on fire
[10:09] <oskude> KenSentMe, *cant
[10:09] <n-iCe> javaJake,  rulez
[10:09] <javaJake> n-iCe, hmmm?
[10:09] <falciron> Thanks qaldune
[10:09] <n-iCe> javaJake,  i mean: =) thank you =p
[10:09] <GMWeezel> How can I have gedit print a file using the terminal?
[10:09] <javaJake> n-iCe, oh, np
[10:09] <KenSentMe> oskude, campsite. A cms that is not (yet) in the ubuntu repositories
[10:09] <makuseru> is there any way to make an avi or mpeg into just an mp3, to have just audio?
[10:10] <chris2077> | Amon |: be careful with gparted, not as hard as you think to accidentally get rid of filthy windows partition that is unfortunately needed for DBs
[10:10] <dyrne> makuseru: mplayer can do that
[10:10] <oskude> KenSentMe, a php based cms ?
[10:10] <thiesen> bruenig: ok... I found that file and by default there isn't much in it except for some out-commented text...
[10:10] <makuseru> dyrne: thanks, ill go read the manual on it
[10:10] <KenSentMe> oskude, no, it needs to be compiled
[10:10] <javaJake> n-iCe, goto this website: http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index_jdk5.jsp and click "J2SE 5.0 Documentation", then select "J2SE(TM) Development Kit Documentation 5.0, English".
[10:11] <javaJake> n-iCe, more instructions coming soon...
[10:11] <KenSentMe> oskude, it also uses php but has a c engine
[10:11] <wiseelben> cables: perhaps this will help: https://launchpad.net/nautilus-cd-burner/+bug/18298
[10:11] <Dreamxtreme> how do i join #dreamxtreme
[10:11] <K3nt1> i have multimedia buttons etc on my pc, like a wfi-switch. how do i make the switch  trigger an app/program
[10:11] <jrib> Dreamxtreme: /join #dreamxtreme
[10:11] <Dreamxtreme> i cant find it in the room list
[10:11] <cables> wiseelben, thanks
[10:11] <javaJake> Dreamxtreme, if you want me to help you, please goto #dreamxtreme
[10:11] <oskude> KenSentMe, ah ok... well, one way would be to install the depencies manually (if "dpkg -i" cant do that)
[10:11] <bruenig_> wiseelben, fsck did just work so now you have nothing on me
[10:11] <javaJake> Dreamxtreme, just type the following command in your chat box and hit enter: /join #dreamxtreme
[10:12] <wiseelben> bruenig: risky move.. you fsck without unomunting?
[10:12] <KenSentMe> oskude, yeah, i know.
[10:12] <amss> thank yall very very much!
[10:12] <amss> I appreciate the help:)
[10:12] <wiseelben> bruenig: oh looks like you did unmount
[10:12] <thiesen> bruenig: ok... I found that file and by default there isn't much in it except for some out-commented text...
[10:12] <bruenig_> wiseelben, no I had power outage and it fscked when the power came back on
[10:12] <n-iCe> javaJake,  now ?
[10:12] <bruenig_> thiesen, right because you haven't put anything in it. All you do is put the command about the exit 0 and it will run at boot
[10:12] <muppet> bruenig, if you do that to mounted - you more than likely will kill the box - so you need to use sudo and umount
[10:12] <bruenig_> s/about/above/
[10:12] <oskude> KenSentMe, but you got me interested, as use dpkg very rarely, if it can handle depencies...
[10:13] <javaJake> n-iCe, hold on, hold on...
[10:13] <thiesen> bruenig: Before or after the exit 0??
[10:13] <nixnoob_> hey after a new kernel compile my video card driver no longer loads any reason why?
[10:13] <Kronuz> hey, how can I resize my partition (I can't use gparted because I'm using a FakeRAID drive)
[10:13] <amss> yall wouldnt know how to tell the mac address on a dozing machine wouldya?
[10:13] <Kronuz> (or at least it's not listing my RAID drives)
[10:13] <bruenig_> oskude, if you have a deb, you can do sudo dpkg -i whatever.deb && sudo apt-get install -f to fix the dependencies after the dpkg fails
[10:13] <|Amon|> who here is running a dual boot with xp and ubuntu?
[10:13] <muppet> amss, ask in ##windows
[10:14] <amss> muppet ok:) didnt know if there would be such a place
[10:14] <amss> thanks
[10:14] <falciron> Amon, I am, as I said before.
[10:14] <cheeseboy> how do i make directory writeable?
[10:14] <oskude> KenSentMe, read what bruenig  said
[10:14] <muppet> amss, ohhh there is
[10:14] <bruenig_> thiesen, before
[10:14] <active> i get a dependency is not satisfiable kdelibs4c2a error any one helppleae
[10:14] <concept10> How do I kill Nautilus?  It keeps restarting
[10:14] <bayziders> whoa beryl works
[10:14] <javaJake> n-iCe, open a terminal and "cd" into the directory with the downloaded file.
[10:14] <bayziders> yay
[10:14] <falciron> Shoot it concept.
[10:14] <chris2077> amss: sudo ifconfig -a
[10:14] <n-iCe> cd Desktop
[10:14] <javaJake> bayziders, coolest thing, isn't it? :)
[10:14] <n-iCe> Done
[10:14] <KenSentMe> bruenig, thanks for that info for oskude
[10:14] <bruenig_> active, sudo apt-get install kdelibs4c2a gives you what
[10:14] <falciron> Maybe steel bullets?
[10:15] <cheeseboy> how do i make directory writeable?
[10:15] <ardchoille> concept10: nautilus is responsible for managing the desktop (icons, wallpaper, right click menu) and will respawn if you kill it.
[10:15] <javaJake> n-iCe, next, run the following: chown root jdk-1_5_0-doc.zip && chgrp root jdk-1_5_0-doc.zip
[10:15] <muppet> concept10, that is not a good thing, a reboot or killall nautilus (not best idea this side of the working machine)
[10:15] <thiesen> bruenig_: ah... and it's only the command plus it's arguments on one line??
[10:15] <bruenig_> cheeseboy, sudo chmod +w directory
[10:15] <dyrne> cheeseboy: change the owner or group or just chmod -R +w dir/
[10:15] <frojnd> how can I remove all that is related with apache, couse I have installed 2 apaches, one with wine (xampp) and one with apt so 2 apaches are running..
[10:15] <nixnoob_> why doesnt my video driver load with my new kernel?
[10:15] <atlantia> girr... i am running snmpd on a fresh ubuntu install.. netstat shows the device available but not listening on UDP 161, nmap shows port closed, what in ubuntu would block incoming connections or in snmpd would cause this issue?
[10:15] <dyrne> cheeseboy: er dont do the -R unless you know what youre doing
[10:15] <ardchoille> concept10: Why do you need to kill nautilus?
[10:15] <concept10> muppet, ardchoille:  I know what it manages, I want it off my system, I don't want it to respond
[10:15] <concept10> *respawn
[10:16] <bruenig_> thiesen, right something like this
[10:16] <muppet> concept10, so run windowmaker
[10:16] <bruenig_> ls
[10:16] <bruenig_> exit 0
[10:16] <bruenig_> thiesen, but replace ls with whatever your command is
[10:16] <sacater> anyone know a good media converter?
[10:16] <javaJake> cheeseboy, chmod u+w <directory>
[10:16] <qaldune> sacater ffmpeg
[10:16] <sacater> qaldune: kk
[10:16] <concept10> Does anyone know how to get rid of the Nautilus respawning process?
[10:16] <javaJake> cheeseboy, if you mean the directory and all the files in it, run chmod u+x -R <directory>
[10:16] <bruenig_> why just for u
[10:17] <k31th> Anyone use a vario 2 and ubuntu to sync stuff?
[10:17] <thiesen> bruenig_: that seems to be dead easy... weeee.... thanks alot man... and btw... as what does those commands get run as... root or any other user??
[10:17] <javaJake> n-iCe, you still there?
[10:17] <wiseelben> sacater: for a GUI app, try gnormalize or SoundConverter (both for audio)
[10:17] <bruenig_> thiesen, root
[10:17] <k31th> I cant get my smart phone to work in linux seems i need a windows bos?
[10:17] <SilentDis> hello :)
[10:17] <chris2077> whats the best game in the repos
[10:17] <k31th> box*
[10:17] <bruenig_> thiesen, so don't put sudo or anything like that in them
[10:17] <concept10> muppet, BTW, I have windowmaker
[10:17] <sacater> im after video converter
[10:17] <javaJake> n-iCe, did you run the following: chown root jdk-1_5_0-doc.zip && chgrp root jdk-1_5_0-doc.zip
[10:17] <n-iCe> javaJake,  yeah i didn't see that the file is still downlaoding =p hold on pls pls
[10:18] <javaJake> OK
[10:18] <dsquare> what is beagled-helper process please?? it restarts when i kill it and uses 79% of my cpu..
[10:18] <phoenix24_> apache2 and php5 standard installation does not work at my desktop :(
[10:18] <javaJake> n-iCe, we are down to 10 minutes. :(
[10:18] <ardchoille> chris2077: That's extremely relative. That said, I like crack-attack, lbreakout2, chromiumBSD and amphetamine
[10:18] <nospi> can you get WAMP for linux?
[10:18] <phoenix24_> could someone help out?
[10:18] <dsquare> hmm i stoped that worked.
[10:18] <TheVault> Question, what a good program to make DVDs? Like you can add titles, backgrounds & all that sorta stuff?
[10:18] <muppet> concept10, I was running it eariler today and my big regret was running nautilus, so I installed konqueror  - naut changed wallpaper and did *bad* stuff to my session
[10:18] <n-iCe> javaJake,  what do you mean
[10:18] <dsquare> nospi, try XMMS if by "wamp" you mean "winamp"
[10:18] <variant> nospi: wamp?
[10:18] <SilentDis> nospi, you're looking for XMMS
[10:19] <oskude> nospi, AFAIK, its called LAMP
[10:19] <javaJake> n-iCe, I mean, until I have to go
[10:19] <plagerism> In Ubuntu edgy I used redhat's system-config-lvm to create some lvm volumes, that worked well, and I mirrored some important files such as music and such.  Now I have upgraded to feisty(re-installed) and the system-config-lvm gui no longer works.  I can mount most volumes except for the mirrored one.  I can mount each mirror separately, however changes in one dont show up in the other.  How would I go about resto
[10:19] <plagerism> ring this mirror from the command line?
[10:19] <ardchoille> TheVault: dvdstyler ?
[10:19] <nospi> dsquare, no, wamp, it's Apache, PHP and MySQL in one
[10:19] <bruenig_> TheVault, not in the repos but dvdstyler can make menus and such, you will need to make the compatible mpegs though to put into it with some other program
[10:19] <thiesen> bruenig_: oh... I have to change directory to be able to start that server in that case... iirc there is something about using "&&" in the commandline or am I misstaken??
[10:19] <nospi> dsquare, nevermind, it's only windows
[10:19] <xtknight> wamp like lamp i assume..
[10:19] <chris2077> ardchoille: work hard. play hard. thanks as well
[10:19] <variant> nospi: you mean lamp
[10:19] <xtknight> !lamp
[10:19] <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+)
[10:19] <TheVault> Thats fine, I can do that
[10:19] <nospi> variant, oh right
[10:19] <nospi> variant, thanks :)
[10:19] <dsquare> nospi oh ok
[10:19] <xtknight> wamp lol
[10:19] <concept10> muppet, Im trying to remove it from my system.  I want to run a custom desktop, I want to use XFCE's thunar instead of Nautilus
[10:19] <nospi> xtknight, http://www.wampserver.com/en/
[10:19] <bruenig_> thiesen, right cd && command, or you could probably just put those commands in order like cd and then on the next line the next command and so forth and so on
[10:19] <TheVault> so dvdstyler is a good program for that sorta stuff?
[10:19] <cables> Is Ktorrent comparable to Azureus/uTorrent in features?
[10:19] <xtknight> change your name to elmer fudd :P
[10:20] <fastfinger> hello
[10:20] <TheVault> Will it burn the DVD right there to or will I have to get another program to do that?
[10:20] <bruenig_> cables, utorrent > ktorrent > azureus
[10:20] <bruenig_> TheVault, it will burn the dvd from there
[10:20] <muppet> concept10 so sudo apt-get remove --purge gnome
[10:20] <nospi> bruenig_, does that mean uTorrent is the best?
[10:20] <variant> concept10: one thing you could do is ln -sf /usr/bin/thunar /usr/bin/nautilus but that will also stop you havein desktop icons (provided by nautilus
[10:20] <xtknight> nospi, ah wamp = windows lamp
[10:20] <cables> bruenig_, thanks, but why ktorrent>azureus?
[10:20] <nospi> xtknight, yeah
[10:20] <ohnonoagain> im trying to hook up my ubuntu laptop to my plasma tv but i get just a blank screen, when i hook the laptop up to my spare computer monitor it works perfectly. I suspect it is a resolution issue anyone know how to fix this?
[10:20] <muppet> concept10 don't try to upgrade from there
[10:20] <Yggdrasil> can somone help me, my lib-tk package is causing all kinds of apt problems
[10:20] <TheVault> bruenig: Sweet. Can dvdstyler be installed from the Synaptics Package Manager?
[10:20] <Yggdrasil> i tried everything but cant figure it out
[10:20] <ardchoille> concept10: You on Edgy?
[10:20] <thiesen> bruenig_: oh... so /etc/rc.local works like a kind of batchfile if you put the commands on each line??
[10:21] <bruenig_> TheVault, don't think so, there is a deb though
[10:21] <concept10> muppet, been on Feisty for two months
[10:21] <TheVault> bruenig: Alrighty, Thanks
[10:21] <Regner> could any one help me get dvd playback, more specificly mpeg2. i followed some guides and yet it still is not working
[10:21] <muppet> concept10, have fun
[10:21] <bruenig_> thiesen, it just runs the command one after the other
[10:21] <bruenig_> commands

[10:21] <cyris> Can anyone help with an Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format error on Ubuntu boot ?
[10:21] <thiesen> bruenig_: just like a batchfile would do then... :-)
[10:21] <variant> Regner: apt-get install vlc then use vlc to open your movie files. this supports mpeg2
[10:21] <bruenig_> cables, memory issues, ktorrent now has rss so I would use that over azureus which was the only thing azureus really had it
[10:22] <javaJake> n-iCe, downthemall.net - best extension in the world!

And a broadcom 4300 a/b/g wireless card (or something like that) I got this fixed before using bcm43xx, but I don't remember what I did.

[10:29] <PriceChild> ohnonoagain, system > prefs > screen resolution

[10:29] <bruenig_> TheVault, it didn't get to that command because I used && which only works when there aren't errors, but there were errors by design
[10:29] <SilentDis> ohnonoagain, sudo dpkg-reconfigur xserver-xorg, if what PriceChild said doesn't work

[10:31] <gordonjcp> PriceChild: ping?
[10:31] <PriceChild> gordonjcp, ?
[10:31] <TheVault> alright, did that command and now it I guess it installed those things
[10:31] <oskude> Yggdrasil, i would do "sudo apt-get upgrade" before installing that package... but i doubt it will help this problem...
[10:31] <Yggdrasil> oskude bruenig http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10254/
[10:31] <Yggdrasil> oskude, done that. same thing
[10:31] <javaJake> n-iCe, how's it coming?
[10:31] <karl-erik__> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10255/
[10:31] <PriceChild> gordonjcp, Please don't direct questions to specific users until they start helping you on that problem.
[10:31] <bruenig> Yggdrasil, I don't know, you might try sudo apt-get remove libtk-png-perl && sudo apt-get install -f
[10:31] <Psychoman> does someone know how to auto mount an external harddisk at boot?
[10:31] <cpk1> anyone have any idea where I can start with what I think is an X session problem? wine wont run inside my X session but if I log in another user in a new X session wine works fine even working out of my normal users wine dir
[10:31] <POVaddct> is there a kernel 2.6.18 package for edgy?
[10:32] <Yggdrasil> oskude this all started when i was install some stock ticker
[10:32] <Yggdrasil> last week
[10:32] <xtknight> POVaddct, not an official one, yet
[10:32] <POVaddct> hmm
[10:32] <nick_> can anyone help me make the 1280x1024 resolution avaialbe
[10:32] <xtknight> POVaddct, 2.6.17-11 is latest
[10:32] <PriceChild> xtknight, "yet" - it won't be updated
[10:32] <oskude> Yggdrasil, one (stupid) way would be to do "sudo apt-get clean" and then the last command again to see from which repo that "problem" package comes from...
[10:32] <chris2077> cpk1: can you sort that out in the bios?
[10:32] <ompaul> !resolution > nick_
[10:32] <Yggdrasil> haha tried that too
[10:32] <ompaul> nick_, please see the message from the bot thanks
[10:32] <bruenig> PsychoBud, what is its name (/dev/what) and what is it formatted as
[10:32] <xtknight> PriceChild, why not?
[10:32] <POVaddct> xtknight: do you know if they backported zd1211rw driver for 2.6.17?
[10:32] <cpk1> chris2077: ?? this has nothing to do with the bios
[10:32] <nick_> !resolution

[10:32] <lisapc> PriceChild, lol ok :)
[10:32] <bruenig> Yggdrasil, it appears to fail because it doesn't want to overwrite what another package put there, if you removed that other package...
[10:33] <PriceChild> xtknight, because edgy is frozen. Only critical security fixes and bugfixes get updated.
[10:33] <chris2077> cpk1: sorry, thought you posted the external hd question, my bad
[10:33] <javaJake> mods, why was n-iCe banned?
[10:33] <gordonjcp> PriceChild: actually, you *did* help me with a specific problem
[10:33] <xtknight> POVaddct,  well i have some 2.6.18 debs on ubuntuforums, used for core 2 duo problems
[10:33] <gordonjcp> PriceChild: I thought you may be interested in the resolution?
[10:33] <TheVault> yeah, why is n-iCE banned? I was helping him earlier
[10:33] <xtknight> PriceChild, didnt edgy used to use 2.6.16? or no
[10:33] <PriceChild> gordonjcp, lol ok keep talking...
[10:33] <Psychoman> bruenig, it's an ext3 on /dev/sda1
[10:33] <gordonjcp> PriceChild: heh
[10:33] <javaJake> optilab, can you unban n-iCe ?
[10:34] <xtknight> n-iCe, was spamming i think
[10:34] <gordonjcp> PriceChild: righty, remember I had a lot of trouble getting a custom kernel and nvidia-glx working in Edgy?
[10:34] <lisapc> if I chose to put display to sleep after 10mins, will this affect any current downloads etc?
[10:34] <oskude> Yggdrasil, dapper doest have stock ticker ? (i assume gnome applet?)
[10:34] <karl-erik__> sorry, mistake in typing earlier. summarized the problem in here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10256/
[10:34] <ompaul> TheVault, for pasting not clever material
[10:34] <xtknight> but it seemed like a mistake
[10:34] <Yggdrasil> oskude it was called um.. something
[10:34] <oskude> Yggdrasil, *gnome panel applet
[10:34] <Yggdrasil> anyway it screwed it all up
[10:34] <PriceChild> javaJake, TheVault He was warned several times.
[10:34] <SilentDis> xtknight, edgy's release kernel was 2.6.17-10, latest is 2.6.17-11
[10:34] <wolferine> anyone use gDesklets?
[10:34] <TheVault> oh
[10:34] <javaJake> PriceChild, OK
[10:34] <TheVault> that explains it
[10:34] <bruenig> PsychoBud, ok then do sudo mkdir /media/sda1, and then gksu gedit /etc/fstab and add this line to it: /dev/sda1 /media/sda1 ext3 defaults 0 0
[10:34] <xtknight> SilentDis, ah alright.  i had thought edgy used an older one at one point (like .16)
[10:34] <oskude> Yggdrasil, did you install it with apt-get or dpkg ?
[10:34] <gordonjcp> PriceChild: turns out that either a) the Ubuntu kernel source, or b) the low-latency patches clobber some #defines include/linux/interrupts.h
[10:34] <ompaul> TheVault, paste in pastebin and info here I'll unban but if it happens again long time no chat
[10:35] <Psychoman> bruenig, that's what i did
[10:35] <javaJake> PriceChild, is there a time-limit on his ban?
[10:35] <PriceChild> gordonjcp, what was the problem again?
[10:35] <bruenig> PsychoBud, and sudo mount -a does what
[10:35] <IB234> I've followed the FAQ for installing the nVidia drivers as well as attempting to use a tool called Envy which automatically installs the drivers, but when I install them and restart, the screen goes black and won't display anything. Any ideas anyone? (Ubuntu 6.10, integrated geforce 6100 graphics)
[10:35] <ompaul> TheVault, by the way it was a mute
[10:35] <TheVault> ompaul: Yeah, I keep forgetting about the paste bin
[10:35] <SilentDis> xtknight, might have before release.  I was on dapper at that point though.  I tend not to try prerelease versions myself.
[10:35] <gordonjcp> PriceChild: NVidia installer wouldn't compile the driver hooks, m-a a-i nvidia-glx died with a not-clearly-specified error
[10:35] <Psychoman> bruenig, i'll check, but i know i can mount the harddisk by hand with mount /dev/sda1
[10:35] <ompaul> !pastebin > TheVault
[10:35] <w0rmy> hi, when I run update manager I get 404 error on all the download attempts... any idea ?
[10:35] <bruenig> PsychoBud, right but did you put that line in the fstab
[10:35] <PriceChild> gordonjcp, ahh
[10:35] <xtknight> POVaddct, 2.6.18 deb http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=326343
[10:36] <ompaul> w0rmy, does the box have a network connection?
[10:36] <TheVault> ompaul: Yeah, I'll remember the pastebin from now on :P
[10:36] <POVaddct> xtknight: thanks
[10:36] <xtknight> POVaddct, 2.6.19.1 actaully
[10:36] <ub12> I have a program -qcad - using qt. How do I change the default font in the drop down lists?
[10:36] <Yggdrasil> oskude smtm
[10:36] <gordonjcp> PriceChild: I need to do a bit more checking to tie it down to a specific thing, but certainly copying the vanilla header file back makes the NVidia installer happy
[10:36] <w0rmy> ompaul, well, I am talking to you now
[10:36] <bruenig> TheVault, that worked?
[10:36] <Psychoman> bruenig, i did
[10:36] <bruenig> PsychoBud, pastebin your /etc/fstab then
[10:36] <gordonjcp> PriceChild: it's not a solved problem, but I know what causes it now ;-)
[10:36] <TheVault> bruenig: Have not opened it yet, doing so now
[10:36] <PriceChild> gordonjcp, cool, file a bug! :)
[10:36] <Psychoman>  bruenig, mount -a will also mount the external harddisk
[10:36] <ompaul> w0rmy, so is that via a proxy
[10:36] <oskude> Yggdrasil, did you install it with apt-get or dpkg ?
[10:36] <bruenig> Psychoman, ok then it should mount at boot
[10:37] <Yggdrasil> oskude apt-get
[10:37] <TheVault> wheres the program at?
[10:37] <w0rmy> nope, just home network. used to work excellent till 2 days ago
[10:37] <Psychoman> bruenig, it doesn't :) i'll check some logs then
[10:37] <TheVault> bruenig: Wheres the program?
[10:37] <xtknight> POVaddct, i also happen to have 2.6.20.2 w/ low latency patch if that interests u at all, i wouldn't mind uploading it
[10:37] <Yggdrasil> oskude tryign to apt-get remove it...
[10:37] <bruenig> TheVault, oh there may not be a menu entry, just run dvdstyler
[10:38] <TheVault> alright
[10:38] <w0rmy> I get alot of: W: Failed to fetch http://il.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/libx/libxmu/libxmu-headers_1.0.2-1ubuntu2_all.deb
[10:38] <w0rmy>   404 Not Found [IP: 192.116.202.128 80] 
[10:38] <ompaul> w0rmy, so then all I can say is wherever you are pointing maybe that is not working correctly
[10:38] <POVaddct> xtknight: actually i am only looking for a kernel with zd1211rw driver
[10:38] <ub12> Has anyone any experience with qt based applications?
[10:38] <bruenig> TheVault, oh and it always has some mailcap error, but just ignore that
[10:38] <xtknight> POVaddct, is that something that needs to be selected at compile?
[10:38] <POVaddct> xtknight: i know that driver appeared first in 2.6.18
[10:38] <oskude> Yggdrasil, yeah, do that. and then upgrade (and maybe "sudo apt-get update" before that)
[10:38] <Psychoman> bruenig, in /var/log/boot it says that /dev/sda1 doesn't exist
[10:38] <Yggdrasil> doh, that totaly fixed it
[10:38] <xtknight> POVaddct, well wasit not default selected in the new kernels w/ support for it?
[10:38] <TheVault> bruenig: Alrighty...its opened
[10:38] <ompaul> w0rmy, so change that to ie not il and see if it works (they have huge well connected pipes
[10:38] <Yggdrasil> oskude thanks for the help
[10:38] <POVaddct> xtknight: dont know
[10:38] <xtknight> POVaddct, i can check if my config has it, sec
[10:38] <bruenig> Psychoman, hmmm
[10:38] <xtknight> POVaddct, know the config var name?
[10:39] <w0rmy> ompaul, how do I do that ?!
[10:39] <Yggdrasil> POVaddct are you guys talking about recording ?
[10:39] <oskude> Yggdrasil, that maybe got rid off the error, but is smtm still installed ?
[10:39] <TheVault> Wow, the interface is nice for DVD Styler
[10:39] <Psychoman> bruenig, i'll paste my fstab to be sure
[10:39] <Yggdrasil> oskude negative i apt-=get removed it
[10:39] <ompaul> w0rmy, change back tomorrow, >>sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list<<
[10:39] <POVaddct> Yggdrasil: no, i talk about support for zydas zd 1211 (usb wlan)
[10:39] <bruenig> Psychoman, ok but if mount -a is working then your fstab should be in order, or so I would think
[10:39] <Yggdrasil> mhm...
[10:39] <Yggdrasil> interesting
[10:39] <xtknight> POVaddct, CONFIG_ZD1211RW=m (yes, compiled as module)  for my 2.6.20.2 kernel.  same i assume for 2.6.19.1.  i didnt ever touch the option since
[10:39] <Yggdrasil> bruenig thanks to u as well
[10:39] <datakid23> hola, where should I save my newly created crontab file for auto apt-getting at midnight?
[10:39] <ompaul> Seveas, I want to remind you of a time when there were 1/10 of the users there are now
[10:39] <lisapc> is there any way to create a DVD from Ubuntu that loads a DVD menu and then plays the AVI file?
[10:40] <Psychoman> bruenig, hee it is http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10258/
[10:40] <Yggdrasil> datakid23 maybe in /usr/local/bin ?
[10:40] <julianito> please i want to go to ubuntu.fr
[10:40] <xtknight> !fr | julianito
[10:40] <ubotu> julianito: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[10:40] <datakid23> ok - will it stilll know to execute from there - your "maybe" makes me nervous
[10:40] <TheVault> I can create a shortcut to DVDStyler if I make a new launcher and make the command for dvdstyler
[10:40] <datakid23> ?
[10:40] <naveen> how is everyone?
[10:40] <julianito> thanks
[10:40] <wc> Does anyone know how to mount a filesystem a loop device without knowing the file system type?
[10:40] <TheVault> am I correct on that?
[10:40] <xtknight> wc, "-t auto" ?
[10:40] <xtknight> wc, or omit -t completely and juts use -o loop?  it doesn't work?
[10:41] <wc> I've tried mount -o loop
[10:41] <naveen> -t auto or omit -t
[10:41] <OuZo> were can i get a gantt chart for any of the ubuntu projects? thanks
[10:41] <xtknight> wc, what are you mounting
[10:41] <wc> it asks for a fs
[10:41] <w0rmy> ompaul, ie is for sure ?
[10:41] <naveen> damn, I hate your typing speed xt
[10:41] <nospi> i can't save my php files into /var/www
[10:41] <wc> tried -t auto
[10:41] <xtknight> :)
[10:41] <nospi> it says i don't have permission
[10:41] <xtknight> i hate typing my speed too
[10:41] <lisapc> TheVault, whats DVDStyler?
[10:41] <ompaul> w0rmy, ie is ireland
[10:41] <TheVault> lisapc: A program used for making DVS
[10:41] <bruenig> Psychoman, that line looks fine, maybe if you did it by uuid, do file /dev/disk/by-uuid/* | grep sda1 to find out what the uid for
[10:41] <TheVault> *DVDs
[10:41] <oskude> nospi, /var/www is owned by user "root"
[10:41] <lisapc> TheVault, can I make a DVD using my AVI file?
[10:41] <xtknight> bruenig, Psychoman  'blkid' is a shortcut
[10:42] <wc> Its an image of a file system, Ive mounted it under suse with -o loop
[10:42] <bruenig> oh
[10:42] <TheVault> lisapc: Gotta convert it to MPEG first
[10:42] <w0rmy> ompaul,  ie will work really slow for me... do you know whats the prefix of a US server ?
[10:42] <ompaul> w0rmy, they shift more bites per day than kernel.org
[10:42] <bruenig> xtknight, good to know
[10:42] <xtknight> wc, iso9660?
[10:42] <wc> Under Ubuntu I cant for some reason
[10:42] <nospi> oskude, how do i put my files in there then? i want to run a webserver
[10:42] <bruenig> !info devede | lisapc
[10:42] <nospi> oskude, nevermind, i used sudo nano
[10:42] <ubotu> lisapc: devede: Video DVD creator. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 2.1-0ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 243 kB, installed size 664 kB
[10:42] <lisapc> TheVault, Couldn't find package dvdstyle
[10:42] <wc> I've tried iso9660
[10:42] <TheVault> lisapc: http://vixy.net - is a good place to convert video files
[10:42] <w0rmy> israel <-> europe works really slow in israel
[10:42] <xtknight> wc, well it's a .iso right?  or is it casper or something
[10:42] <lisapc> bruenig, ty:)
[10:42] <bimberi> OuZo: don't know of a gantt chart but there is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyReleaseSchedule
[10:42] <Psychoman> bruenig, i got : bash: /dev/disk/by-uuid/0675a8e0-a996-49fc-ac54-f785f12e0db3: Permission denied
[10:42] <lisapc> TheVault, ok ty
[10:42] <oskude> nospi, you, thats one of the ways
[10:42] <riaal> Anyone having any sugestions about an easy to install wireless card for ubuntu? My cNet Ralink won't work what ever I do =/
[10:42] <TheVault> lisapc: your welcome
[10:42] <oskude> nospi, *yup
[10:43] <bruenig> lisapc, dvdstyler only works with mpegs, devede can conver things to complaint mpegs and then you can use dvdstyler for the menus and such
[10:43] <wc> I have no clue, I was just given an Image of a file system and well here I am
[10:43] <bruenig> PsychoBud, try blkid like xtknight said
[10:43] <nospi> oskude, also, what's the line in apache2.conf i edit if i want to change the www folder?
[10:43] <ompaul> w0rmy, make it us then] 
[10:43] <Flannel> nospi: It's not.  Since that's a site specific change, it's in sites-available,
[10:43] <dyrne> riaal: proxim orinoco always works well for me. cisco cards i believe too
[10:43] <w0rmy> thanks ompaul  !
[10:43] <Ng> wc: what does "file /path/to/file" say?
[10:43] <xtknight> Psychoman,  not sure why youre getting that, bruenig's longer cmd wroks for me with no permission problems .  but ya try blkid or 'sudo blkid' if all else fails
[10:43] <Flannel> nospi: /etc/apache2/sites-available/default
[10:43] <nospi> Flannel, oh right, thanks. the site i was on said it was in apache2.conf
[10:44] <lisapc> bruenig, it says dvdstyler cannot be found
[10:44] <riaal> dyrne, okey, I will have a look at it, thanks
[10:44] <OuZo> bimberi: thanks, im sure that can help :)
[10:44] <bruenig> lisapc, did you get devede installed?
[10:44] <lisapc> bruenig, insyalling now
[10:44] <ompaul> w0rmy, then after that do sudo apt-get update
[10:44] <Flannel> nospi: right, ubuntu does things a bit differently.  apache2.conf is server wide, module specific stuff is in the appropriate files in mods-available and site specific stuff is in sites-available, makes it nice and modular
[10:44] <wc> The thing is that it mounts with just mount -o loop on other OS's
[10:44] <wc> ...with older kernels
[10:44] <wc> if that makes any difference
[10:44] <xtknight> wc, what's an "image of a filesystem"?  not sure what you mean, where did it come from?  anyway do the "file" command on it like Ng said
[10:44] <lisapc> bruenig, devede is now installed
[10:44] <Psychoman> here is my blkid : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10260/
[10:45] <nospi> Flannel, oh ok
[10:45] <lisapc> bruenig, how do I now install dvdstyler?
[10:45] <bimberi> OuZo: yw :)
[10:45] <bruenig> lisapc, here is the command for dvdstyler: cd && wget http://superb-east.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/dvdstyler/dvdstyler_1.5b4-1_i386.deb && wget http://superb-east.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/wxsvg/wxsvg_1.0b5-1_i386.deb && sudo dpkg -i *.deb ; sudo apt-get install -f
[10:45] <xtknight> Psychoman, he wanted you to find sda1 i think so it's /dev/sda1: UUID="78a6979f-4b4d-41c1-b7b7-0f4941f1608f"
[10:45] <oskude> nospi, just realized what Flannel said :)
[10:45] <nospi> Flannel, should i change the www folder to one that i can acces then? without sudo'ing?
[10:45] <lisapc> bruenig, wow, thatgs one command :P hehe
[10:45] <nospi> oskude, heh :P
[10:45] <wc> linux: Minix filesystem, 30 char names
[10:45] <Flannel> nospi: that way, for instance, you can have two separate 'sites' on two separate ports, with two different [whatever]  (root locations on your filesystem, etc).
[10:45] <xtknight> lol i love those commands u type out bruenig
[10:45] <Ng> lisapc: it's 5 commands ;)
[10:45] <Psychoman> xtknight, i'll add it the same wat to my fstab, brb
[10:46] <nospi> Flannel, oh righ
[10:46] <arrenlex> bruenig: You do know of this magical directory called /tmp which was invented for files like that, right? :)
[10:46] <lisapc> Ng, hehe :)
[10:46] <oskude> nospi, i would recommend using "public_html" in you user folder (if that fits your needs)
[10:46] <lisapc> bruenig, you are so clever :) ty
[10:46] <lisapc> brb
[10:46] <bruenig> arrenlex, ah
[10:46] <TheVault> gotta run everyone, Thanks for all your help
[10:46] <Ng> lisapc: && means "do this if the previous command succeeded" and the ; means "now do this regardless of the previous command's exit status" :)
[10:46] <TheVault> :)
[10:46] <Flannel> nospi: /var/www is default, and traditional.  There are other solutions.  If you're doing this for personal use, you might use the userdir thing, that oskude just said
[10:46] <nospi> oskude, yeah, it's just a test for now. i don't actually have a site to host yet
[10:46] <gordonjcp> PriceChild: I will file a bug, if I can prove it's Ubuntu's fault and not mine ;-)
[10:46] <bruenig> arrenlex, maybe they will learn something if they see the debs in their home directory
[10:46] <nospi> oskude, just want to get it set up
[10:46] <cafuego_> lisapc: Do not run that command in a dir that  already contains .deb files.
[10:46] <w0rmy> ompaul, is there another file to edit ? I still get IL servers
[10:46] <nospi> Flannel, ok, i'll try that
[10:46] <UNDERsoN> Hi All does anybody has problem with installation proftpd? Who can help me
[10:46] <TheVault> later everyone
[10:46] <Jetfighrt395934> bruenig, can I view a list of packages?
[10:46] <Flannel> nospi: public_html folder in your home dir, then go to /your.ip/~username/
[10:46] <w0rmy> ompaul, and they all fail
[10:46] <wc> Well I was asked to add a driver to an old image that is used on a network
[10:46] <Ng> wc: try adding -t minix then
[10:46] <wc> Its a novell linux.2 image
[10:47] <wc> ok, I'll try that
[10:47] <nospi> Flannel, right
[10:47] <bruenig> Jetfighrt395934, synaptic has a lot of packages
[10:47] <Flannel> nospi: Or, just use sudo to copy stuff, or add yourself to the www-data group, and make the folders group writeable, or [a bunch of other methods] 
[10:47] <ompaul> w0rmy, just check that you saved it correctly use nano on it again
[10:47] <cafuego_> wc: 'file <imgfile>'
[10:47] <Jetfighrt395934> I mean sudo apt-get install PACKAGE
[10:47] <cafuego_> wc: does that say what it is?
[10:47] <wc> linux: Minix filesystem, 30 char names
[10:47] <xtknight> synaptic and apt-get use the same sources
[10:47] <nospi> Flannel, so in sites available do i change document root to DocumentRoot /home/nospi/public_html/?
[10:47] <oskude> nospi, cant remember if apache2 in ubuntu has userdirs activated, if yes, just create a dir called "public_html" in your home folder and you can access it through "http://localhost/~yourusername"
[10:47] <Flannel> Jetfighrt395934: apt-cache search [stuff] 
[10:47] <Death_Sargent> Any one know a way to get wobbly windows without having to submit to the full composit manager
[10:47] <cafuego_> wc: there ya go
[10:47] <xtknight> debian has over 60k packages in universe/multiverse etc
[10:47] <Jetfighrt395934> Ok
[10:47] <Flannel> nospi: no no.  There's a module, already enabled.  Don't need to edit anything
[10:48] <bruenig> Death_Sargent, don't think you can, but if anyone knows #ubuntu-effects
[10:48] <w0rmy> omegabeta, its ok thou ther eare some url's with no prefix, like security and stuff, maybe they are redirecting or something
[10:48] <lisapc> Errors were encountered while processing:
[10:48] <lisapc>  dvdstyler.
[10:48] <nospi> oskude, ok
[10:48] <wc> Thanks, It worked
[10:48] <Jetfighter> Thanks
[10:48] <nospi> Flannel, ok thanks
[10:48] <Death_Sargent> How about firewalls anyone have a recomendation
[10:48] <Flannel> nospi: just add a public_html folder to your homedir, and make it 755
[10:48] <wc> I wonder why -o loop worked under suse?
[10:48] <PriceChild> !firestarter | Death_Sargent
[10:48] <ubotu> Death_Sargent: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[10:48] <nospi> Flannel, gotta go to school, thanks for you help, you too oskude. bye guys :)
[10:48] <xtknight> Death_Sargent, firestarter is one, but im not sure how good ti is
[10:48] <bruenig> last time I checked ubuntu has 20k packages in all, but that was dapper when I looked at that, so it is probably much higher
[10:48] <wc> Thanks a lot :)
[10:48] <cafuego_> wc: incidentaslly, minix can be run under vmware for free ;-)
[10:48] <UNDERsoN> Who can help me. I have problem with proftpd
[10:48] <wc> Awsome, That can make my job easier
[10:49] <Death_Sargent> Fire Starter .deb would not install
[10:49] <xtknight> !info firestarter
[10:49] <Death_Sargent> I downloaded the deb and it would not work

[10:49] <Flannel> Death_Sargent: firestarter is in the repositories, no need to manually download it
[10:49] <Death_Sargent> oh
[10:49] <bruenig> Death_Sargent, sudo apt-get install firestarter
[10:49] <Death_Sargent> thnx l8tr
[10:49] <Flannel> Death_Sargent: you'll need universe enabled
[10:49] <Jetfighter> bruenig, I'm actually getting better at this >.<
[10:50] <Kikkoman> Say
[10:50] <Kikkoman> What resolution will it be when I install ubuntu?
[10:50] <oskude> nospi, for your logs (if any;) in feisty "userdir" doesnt seem to be activated by default, so you should be able to activate it by doing " sudo a2enmod userdir" and then "sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload"
[10:50] <xtknight> Kikkoman, 1024x768 i think
[10:50] <Kikkoman> Because I know someone who installed it, and it was stuck at 640x480
[10:50] <bruenig> he probably already tried to install it with dpkg and didn't have the right dependencies, and that is going to be fun seeing how that works out when he sudo apt-get installs firestarter and all the dependencies are satisfied with two firestarters on the queue to get installed

[10:53] <dick> I seams to be rar zip files but i can't open them up
[10:53] <bruenig> dick, well does it have an extension, perhaps .avi or something else
[10:53] <dick> any ideas
[10:53] <cafuego_> dick: Are you asking for help with IP piracy?
[10:53] <Jetfighter> Ok, I want to play a game that needs Java. But I installed the java package
[10:54] <xtknight> Psychoman, also do 'blkid' again and pastebin
[10:54] <PriceChild> dick, Sounds like piracy to me... We don't condone or assist that here.

[10:56] <ompaul> cafuego_, talk like a pirate day is in september arrrrrrr
[10:56] <Psychoman> xtknight, it does : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10267/
[10:57] <xtknight> Psychoman, maybe your usb driver isn't getting loaded when it's trying to mount it or something at boot time.  it looks like it mounted successfully just when you typed 'sudo mount -a'.  so i suggest..well mounting it after the usb driver loads, which i'm not sure how to do.  maybe add a gnome session script for it.
[10:57] <DawnLight> i really want to fix this thing
[10:57] <sebrock> hmm... I set gaim to be a system tray icon but it still stays as an usual application. I use gnome in school and then there is just a small gaim-guy instead. How do I fix this?
[10:57] <PriceChild> DawnLight, I'm looking, one second
[10:57] <cafuego_> mzfckr`: Disable all the sources that are not official ubuntu ones, run 'sudop apt-get update' and then install amarok.
[10:58] <Psychoman> xtknight, in /etc/rc.local ?
[10:58] <ian_> hey. does anyone know how to start an unframed xterm?
[10:58] <ompaul> DawnLight, iirc there are two different drives for nvidia - one for new and one for old
[10:58] <Psychoman> xtknight, i would need the harddisk to be accessed by apache
[10:58] <xtknight> Psychoman, hrm maybe.  not familiar with rc.d, et al
[10:58] <bruenig> sebrock, by default gaim should be in the tray, does your tray work?
[10:58] <Psychoman> xtknight, ok thx :)

The module may be trying to access GPLONLY symbols but the problem is more likely to be a coding or user error.  Contact the module supplier for assistance, only they can help you."
[10:59] <bruenig> sebrock, does anything else go into the tray?
[10:59] <xtknight> Psychoman, i suggest a simple sudo mount -a, or "user,exec,auto" for options.  then you can use mount -a from your user, i think.
[10:59] <sebrock> bruenig, I mean I do see clock and shutdown button etc. there
[10:59] <panfist> while running vmware server my edgy box becomes unresponsive for 2mins+ anytime i change a setting, on a fresh install, any idea why?
[10:59] <sebrock> bruenig, I dont use a lower panel, just the one on the upper side
[10:59] <xtknight> panfist, change what kind of setting?
[10:59] <bruenig> sebrock, no those aren't the same as the tray, is there any other applications that you open that go into the tray
[10:59] <oskude> DawnLight, i think i have the same gfx chip on my desktop...
[10:59] <sebrock> bruenig, no
[10:59] <sebrock> bruenig, all stays as open applications
[11:00] <PriceChild> DawnLight, The error log suggests you've built against incorrect kernel sources.
[11:00] <bruenig> sebrock, ok right click over to the left of the clock and select add to panel, and then add the notification area applet and restart gaim
[11:00] <panfist> xtknight, vm settings like add or remove hardware, or even open the vm settings menu
[11:00] <xtknight> panfist, have you tried defragmenting the vm
[11:00] <DawnLight> i think i've done everything right. the right kernel version and the right compiler version
[11:00] <PriceChild> DawnLight, Could you check you've got the latest sources please?
[11:00] <panfist> xtknight, its a fresh machine pre-allocated on a totally blank partition
[11:00] <xtknight> panfist, also i find XFS better for huge files and VMs.  i cant boot my vista mv off ext3 without serious lag every time.  but xfs works reasonably well for instance.  and xfs has a defrag tool xfs_fsr
[11:01] <odat> hi everyone
[11:01] <mzfckr`> cafuego_ its updating now
[11:01] <xtknight> panfist, im afraid i have no idea then

[11:02] <bruenig> Jetfighter, it is pretty big and you must have a slow connection or that mirror is slow or something
[11:02] <xethx> i have a very big problem
[11:02] <xethx> my grub 1.5 is shot and i need to boot windows
[11:02] <UNDERsoN> smax:/etc# proftpd

[11:02] <PriceChild> DawnLight, edgy?
[11:02] <Jetfighter> 22 mins
[11:02] <xtknight> panfist, using the gnome system monitor, gnome-system-monitor from terminal.  i have to go now unfortunately, may be able to help you.  but that can help track down wheree the lag is coming from
[11:02] <PriceChild> !grub | xethx

[11:02] <oskude> DawnLight, ah sorry, i got geforce 4 mx, works nice with "nvidia-glx"... but my card before that was geforce 2 mx and it worked nicely with dapper-1 :(
[11:02] <panfist> xtknight, thanks
[11:02] <DawnLight> no actually using debian

[11:02] <bruenig> !synaptic | Jetfighter
[11:02] <xtknight> panfist, may be able to help you, later i mean.
[11:02] <ubotu> Jetfighter: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[11:02] <PriceChild> DawnLight, I hope that was sarcastic?
[11:03] <ian_> :< how would i go abouts opening an unframed xterm?
[11:03] <alonea> anyone at all know what else I could check to see why my wifi card isn't coming on?
[11:03] <DawnLight> the debian part no why
[11:03] <PriceChild> DawnLight, #debian for debian support
[11:03] <Jetfighter> bruenig, is it possible to take then upload a screenshot?
[11:03] <rstanca> anyone knows how to make nautilus not show mounted partitions on desktop? volumes_visible is unchecked
[11:03] <ompaul> DawnLight, they don't work exactly the same way
[11:04] <xethx> ok the thing is, I dont have linux installed on the other computer
[11:04] <bruenig> Jetfighter, don't, you don't appear to have a problem (recognize though that synaptics != synaptic)
[11:04] <PriceChild> DawnLight, they also have their official channel on a separate sever but I can't remember which :)
[11:04] <xethx> -_-
[11:04] <Jetfighter> ?
[11:04] <mzfckr`> cafuego_ didnt helped
[11:04] <xethx> anyone?
[11:05] <Psychoman> xtknight, i did add "mount /dev/sda1" in /etc/rc.local and it works now
[11:05] <DawnLight> thanks chaow
[11:05] <xethx> how do i repair grub
[11:05] <bruenig> PsychoBud, really I thought about suggesting adding mount -a in there but thought that was a stupid suggestion
[11:05] <ian_> um
[11:05] <ian_> xethx: hang on
[11:05] <odat> anyone able to help with a second hard drive
[11:05] <mEck0> I have a high pitched/buzzing sound on my new HP laptop and found this: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00385615&cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&product=3289625&dlc=en&lang=en   I have checked the power configurations both in Ubuntu and Windows, but I can't hear it does help :/ Does anyone know a solution for it?
[11:06] <Superjew9020> i ubuntu set up so that it turns on the screensaver and then after an hour the monitor goes to sleep, but when i wake it up the screensaver never restarts and i just get a black screen
[11:06] <Superjew9020> can someone help me?
[11:06] <Psychoman> bruenig, i don't believe this is the normal way to do it, but it works :)
[11:06] <ian_> xethx: http://iangoeth.blogspot.com/2007/01/restoring-grub.html
[11:06] <xethx> ok but heres the thing, i dont use linux on that computer anymore...?
[11:06] <xethx> will it still work
[11:07] <Jetfighter> If you boot from the LiveCD, but don't install, will it overwrite the existing Windows install?
[11:07] <ompaul> xethx, so why the grub wants?
[11:07] <mzfckr`> damn it, its no use
[11:07] <bruenig> Jetfighter, no
[11:07] <Psychoman> bruenig, the harddisk should be mounted automaticly with the line in fstab, but it doesn't. maybe because of hald. if i find a better way i'll be sure to come tell you guys :)
[11:07] <xethx> because i cant boot windows -_-
[11:07] <xethx> i get a grub 17 error
[11:08] <Jetfighter> So if my dad has Windows installed, sticks in the disk to try it, once he removes CD and restarts, it'll be Linux.
[11:08] <concept10> where are ubuntu's default desktop background's stored?  i cant locate them
[11:08] <fastfinger> hmm
[11:08] <bruenig> Jetfighter, no, if he puts the disk in and removes it, the computer will be exactly the same as it was and will boot into windows, that is the whole idea of the live cd, that it doesn't touch your computer
[11:08] <daedalus_> Jetfighter: Uh, no. You have to click on the "install to harddrive" icon
[11:08] <xethx> ...
[11:08] <Flannel> Jetfighter: no, it's a live CD.
[11:08] <Superjew9020> i ubuntu set up so that it turns on the screensaver and  then after an hour the monitor goes to sleep, but when i  wake it up the screensaver never restarts and i just get  a black screen

[11:09] <UNDERsoN> Who can help me with proftp
[11:09] <concept10> IndyGunFreak, no, im looking for dawn of ubuntu
[11:09] <Jetfighter> Is there a way to disable the password promt when you come back from standby?
[11:09] <IndyGunFreak> concept10: hang on, i'll see where it is...
[11:09] <xethx> how do i bypass grub?
[11:09] <cables> concept10, if you want, i'll send you that.
[11:09] <Superjew9020> moo?
[11:09] <xethx> to boot windows
[11:09] <Flannel> xethx: GRUB boots windows.
[11:09] <cables> xethx, you want to make windows the default?
[11:09] <bruenig> Jetfighter, dissable standby and just have it screensave
[11:09] <xethx> yes
[11:09] <poningru> xethx: grub has a windows option
[11:09] <poningru> oh
[11:10] <concept10> cables, if you can send it, you know where its at. I can't find it.. you know the location?
[11:10] <bruenig> s/dissable/disable/
[11:10] <xethx> cables yes
[11:10] <cables> xethx, hold on a sec
[11:10] <pdxmitch> I'm on a Windows computer, and have a formatted slave hard drive that I want to put Ubuntu on.  I then want to put that slave drive into an old computer as a primary drive, so that Ubuntu is the only OS on that computer, and there's no Ubuntu on my Windows computer.  Can I do that?
[11:10] <poningru> xethx: you have to edit menu.list in /boot/grub
[11:10] <poningru> and make windows portion the first
[11:10] <poningru> first backup your menu.list though
[11:10] <bruenig> pdxmitch, the hardware configuration will be different so I wouldn't suggest it
[11:10] <xethx> poningru, thats the thing, i dont have linux on that computer
[11:10] <IndyGunFreak> concept10: check /usr/share/backgrounds... thats where it is on mine
[11:11] <cables> concept10, should be in /usr/share/backgrounds
[11:11] <mzfckr`> i want 2 watch some .avi files, what application i need?
[11:11] <poningru> wtf
[11:11] <bruenig> pdxmitch, why can't you just put that slave drive in and then install on that computer
[11:11] <Jetfighter> Well, I leave my computer on, and when I am not here for a while, it goes black, and coming back, I need to enter a password. :(

[11:11] <user-land> anyone using gaim ? it quit on me all the time yesterday when a buddy sent me special characters from a windows msn client.
[11:11] <bruenig> pdxmitch, oh got you
[11:11] <ompaul> Superjew9020, read the message from the bot and no I don't have an answer for you
[11:12] <concept10> IndyGunFreak, cables : thanks.  (I knew it was case sensitive)
[11:12] <Jetfighter> bruenig, he doesn't like you.
[11:12] <Superjew9020> then tell me that
[11:12] <IndyGunFreak> concept10: lol
[11:12] <bruenig> pdxmitch, you can try it
[11:12] <Superjew9020> thats all u had to do
[11:12] <Superjew9020> i dont like bein ignored
[11:12] <cables> user-land, gaim stuff is in ~/.gaim. Everything's xml, so whatever it's crashing on, you can fix.
[11:12] <jamison__> does anyone know how to set up shared files in VMWARE so i can acces the host machine?
[11:12] <bruenig> pdxmitch, it is just that during install, it is configured to fit the hardware and if the hardware changes...
[11:12] <concept10> I just did something I've been wanting to do for a while:  I replace Nautilus with XFCE's Thunar and xfdesktop (MUCH, MUCH BETTER)
[11:13] <IndyGunFreak> concept10: i agree, i like thunar also.
[11:13] <cables> concept10, how so?
[11:13] <bruenig> pdxmitch, and if you install grub that would be a disaster because then you wouldn't be able to boot windows as the bootloader would be gone
[11:13] <AndrewLife> Now that (I think) I've installed my ati drivers correctly, will I ever have to do it in a roundabout way again (for updates), or should they be updating automatically with everything else now?
[11:13] <concept10> Custom Actions on the desktop.. TAKE THAT GNOME FEATURE REMOVERS!!
[11:13] <cables> concept10, custom actions = ?
[11:13] <bruenig> !offtopic | concept10 as much as I like xfce...

[11:13] <xethx> soo
[11:14] <pdxmitch> bruenig: Can I use an iso converter to put the contents of the desktop CD iso onto the clean drive, then stick the clean drive into my old computer and pretend my hard drive is a CD drive?
[11:14] <xethx> anyone going to tell me what i can do
[11:14] <erUSUL> !caps > concept10
[11:14] <user-land> cable you suggest i find and fix the crashing bug ?
[11:14] <bruenig> pdxmitch, you are getting into an area that I am unfamiliar with
[11:14] <Jetfighter> Oh, great. I installed the applet thing in my Synaptics Package Manager, and I lay a java game, it doesn't work,
[11:14] <bruenig> !install | pdxmitch this should have some different ways to install
[11:14] <ubotu> pdxmitch this should have some different ways to install: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues
[11:14] <concept10> bruenig, xfce is supported by ubuntu. what are you talking about?
[11:14] <pdxmitch> bruenig: Ok, thanks.
[11:14] <cables> user-land, did it crash once or is it crashing on startup every time?
[11:14] <bruenig> concept10, xubuntu...
[11:14] <Jetfighter> I click trust applet, it says error loading.
[11:15] <jamison__> does anyone know how to set up shared files in VMWARE so i can acces the host machine?
[11:15] <cables> bruenig, he's not talking about xubuntu, he's talking about thunar. Subtle difference...
[11:15] <fastfinger> i have pppoe with username password system and its cable not dsl :X when i do sudo pppoeconf it loads till 100% then nothing happens
[11:15] <bruenig> he said xfcesktop
[11:15] <bruenig> xfdesktop
[11:15] <user-land> it is crashing every time he sent me some special characters
[11:15] <Psychoman> thx  guys :)
[11:15] <Psychoman> bye :)
[11:15] <oskude> offtopic... is there a way to find out (inside ubuntu) if my network card is "wakeonlan" capable ? or do "dsl-routers" normally block that magic (in LAN that is)?
[11:15] <concept10> it really doesnt matter
[11:15] <bruenig> xfdesktop doesn't even let you do that little thing where you can click and draw a box around a bunch of files
[11:16] <fastfinger> can anyone help me with that?
[11:16] <jamison__> does anyone know how to set up shared files in VMWARE so i can acces the host machine?
[11:16] <concept10> cables, you should try it, its really nice
[11:17] <xethx> anyone?
[11:17] <cables> concept10, trying thunar now
[11:17] <lisapc> is there any way I can get an USV TV tuner to work?
[11:17] <lisapc> USB
[11:17] <concept10> cables, its much faster than nautilus, it also lets you make custom right click actions
[11:18] <Moniker42> hi, how do i uninstall beryl?
[11:18] <POVaddct> concept10: on my old jvc subnotebook i still have xfce 3.8
[11:18] <lisapc> Moniker42, whats wrong with beryl?
[11:18] <Moniker42> or how do i, from the recovery console, stop it starting automatically
[11:18] <concept10> I cant believe he says xfce is off topic, that's insane
[11:18] <PriceChild> Moniker42, sudo apt-get remove beryl-manager
[11:18] <Jetfighter> OH MY GOD. I can't play online games?1
[11:18] <PriceChild> concept10, it isn't
[11:18] <xethx> Wow... can/will anyone help?
[11:18] <Moniker42> lisapc: nothing - except that it doesn't work. when i login i just get my desktop background.

[11:19] <Moniker42> PriceChild: i just want my taskbars and icons back! i can report the bug when i get those back ;)
[11:19] <lisapc> Moniker42, ah ok
[11:19] <xethx> yes
[11:19] <thompa> can someone tell me how to reinstall grub from live cd into my linux part. sda3?
[11:19] <lisapc> !tvtuner
[11:19] <PriceChild> Moniker42, sudo apt-get remove beryl-manager
[11:19] <xethx> and it is nolonger on the usb drive because it doesnt work
[11:19] <bruenig> that is chatter, it is not a support question nor is it an answer
[11:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tvtuner - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:19] <concept10> bruenig, that may be
[11:19] <Moniker42> thanks
[11:19] <Jetfighter> How can I view my computer on my TV?

[11:21] <lisapc> PriceChild, is grub always the same?
[11:21] <Jetfighter> I think I have it?
[11:21] <user-land> what do others think is the best distribution to fix a boot record ?

[11:21] <user-land> ?
[11:22] <PriceChild> lisapc, it works it out and should reinstall... easiest to do with a live cd really.
[11:22] <xethx> ...?
[11:22] <xethx> user-land, can you give me a link
[11:22] <Jetfighter> PriceChild, how can I find out if I have it?

[11:22] <orangey> hey all.
[11:22] <PriceChild> ctrl_x, ok...?
[11:22] <ctrl_x> PriceChild, Is this one is latest

[11:23] <orangey> I'm having a problem with network manager and ndiswrapper together (broadcom network card bcm4328). Everything works fine without network manager, but networkmanager just spins
[11:23] <orangey> any thoughts?
[11:23] <Jetfighter> Once I do that, what do I look for?
[11:23] <sur2rien> Grub says "Cannot mount partition" ...why? btw the comp has no ide drives, only a CD-ROM, and 3 SCSI drives
[11:23] <PriceChild> ctrl_x, Dapper is an LTS and very stable. It will be supported for 3 years on the desktop. Although Edgy is 6 months newer, it won't be supported as long. Don't upgrade to Edgy (6.10) unless you have a good reason, its not worth the hastle :)
[11:23] <sur2rien> any idea why it would say that anyone?

[11:45] <ctrl_x> oskude, what is that for????
[11:45] <kaktuskatta> Marlun: I suggest you format using either Partition Magic or QTParted
[11:45] <IdleOne> ctrl_x, have you enabled universe and multiverse yet?
[11:45] <viktor> cerealkiller219, i have only tried .net 2.0

[11:45] <ctrl_x> oskude, no i did nohting yet.
[11:45] <oskude> ctrl_x, gparted is a tool to partition harddisk, and to resize them, i assume
[11:45] <cerealkiller219> viktor: darn, well thanks, I found what i was looking for on google anyway
[11:46] <fastfinger> i tried sudo pppoeconf , it loads till 100% then nothing happens
