[12:01] <JohnPhys> ompaul: Here it is, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10534/
[12:01] <Kaspa> does any1 know how i deleted the "add remove" icon from applications? and if i can get it back? thanks!
[12:01] <bafoc> PirateHead: sudo apt-get remove samba
[12:01] <XubuntuLover> ctrl_x other than just poking, the Documentation on ubuntu.com is great. or are you looking for more of a guided tour "get to know your system" type thing?
[12:01] <yurimxpxman> kitche: It says "shockwave/flash". Is that what you're talking about?
[12:01] <ladonna> crdlb okay did like you said, how do i test for results
[12:01] <bieb> Is there a volume size limit? I want to connect 5 750gb drives to a raid card in a backup server running Ubuntu and rsnapshot
[12:01] <kitche> yurimxpxman: yep
[12:02] <PirateHead> bafoc: I'm not trying to uninstall samba. He's having trouble with installing things because of samba, he's determined. I really have no clue what's wrong with his box.
[12:02] <PirateHead> ctrl_x: is a paper book that you have to buy okay?
[12:02] <crdlb> ladonna, run 'lsmod' from a terminal and look for "ath_pci"
[12:02] <ctrl_x> PirateHead, what i didnt get you
[12:02] <FreeKFC_Guy> its not removing samba for some reason
[12:02] <PirateHead> ctrl_x: This one looks promising if you're a beginner: http://www.amazon.com/Beginning-Ubuntu-Linux-Novice-Professional/dp/1590596277
[12:02] <crdlb> ladonna, if you don't see it, you need to reboot
[12:03] <XubuntuLover> Random thought / desire. Is there a simple way / plugin for gaim to auto highlight keywords from a list to help parse visually?
[12:03] <FreeKFC_Guy> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[12:03] <FreeKFC_Guy> its giving error
[12:04] <JohnPhys> ompaul:  in case you missed the link :  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10535/
[12:04] <Kaspa> its amazing how useless i feel
[12:04] <Xenguy> ctrl_x: is it OK to /msg you?
[12:04] <ompaul> JohnPhys, sorry just a minute
[12:04] <XubuntuLover> PirateHead: looking for something similar, have you read / reviewed the book yourself, or is this word of mouth?
[12:04] <ladonna> crdlb okay im looking
[12:04] <ladonna> crdlb didnt see it, if I reboot do i need to disable my wired connection
[12:04] <JohnPhys> ompaul:  it's ok, just making sure
[12:04] <crdlb> ladonna, you can use both
[12:05] <PirateHead> XubuntuLover: I've seen the book plugged on blogs, but I have not read it.
[12:05] <crdlb> ladonna, you did see a bunch of other names though right?
[12:05] <PirateHead> XubuntuLover: my personal recommendation is the general posix-like-os tutorial called Rute, but it's neither graphically-oriented nor Ubuntu-specific.
[12:05] <crdlb> ladonna, when you ran lspci
[12:05] <gyaresu> l
[12:06] <XubuntuLover> PirateHead I'll have to check that one out
[12:06] <ladonna> crdlb  okay im going to reboot, one more thing. when i go to system-.administration-networking i only see wired and modem
[12:06] <crdlb> ladonna, you should see it after reboo
[12:06] <PirateHead> XubuntuLover: If you finish the Rute tutorial, you will be very adept at using the terminal to get stuff done on your computer.

[12:06] <StoneNote> PirateHead, this one? http://rute.2038bug.com/index.html.gz
[12:07] <PirateHead> StoneNote: that's the precise one.
[12:07] <StoneNote> thx
[12:07] <ompaul> JohnPhys, msg me please
[12:07] <ladonna> crdlb   going to reboot ill post back when im back up
[12:07] <Xenguy> ctrl_x: just did
[12:07] <XubuntuLover> PirateHead Ok, on that note, I think I will work on that immediately. That is EXACTLY what I need  :)
[12:08] <Kaspa> can any1 get back my "add remove" icon back! its just not there! and i really want it to be there
[12:08] <Xenguy> ctrl_x: I think your nick needs to be registered to send/receive pm AFAIK
[12:08] <PirateHead> XubuntuLover: good luck with it. I'm from a solid Windows background, but once I learned how to use the Linux terminal, I frequently resent having to use GUIs. =D
[12:09] <cables> Can anyone explain the "profile" boot option?
[12:09] <Xenguy> PirateHead: once the console becomes comfortable, one misses it when it is not available :-)
[12:09] <pros1> I wrote a device driver for my nosehair clippers. I think my mistake was calling the program 'skynet.' My nose hair clippers have completely gone 'rise of the machines' on me. Help!
[12:09] <ctrl_x> Xenguy, i can read ur message
[12:09] <ctrl_x> Xenguy, Do u
[12:09] <ctrl_x> Xenguy, read my message
[12:10] <Xenguy> ctrl_x: I'll have a look, sec

[12:10] <ubotu> ctrl_x: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[12:10] <XubuntuLover> PirateHead Same here, except that I resent doing things GUI, and I don't know the terminal. sudo nautilus is lame for changing file permissions in my opinion... which is what I am doing  :(
[12:10] <PirateHead> Xenguy: absolutely. Also, doing dev and admin work via a dialup connection is suicide unless you got your trusty terminal. =D
[12:10] <Xenguy> PirateHead: hehe
[12:10] <XubuntuLover> Xenguy sorry, just got your message
[12:10] <cables> ctrl_x, you're not registered with Freenode. You need to do /msg NickServ REGISTER <passwordyouwant>

[12:11] <detectiveinspekt> can you uninstall totem without removing ubuntu-desktop?
[12:11] <joincamp> would anyone be able to help me with wireless drivers.  here's the deal.  im using a wusb54gv1 with ndiswrapper.  it worked on this computer with a previous install (although I'm not sure how reliably because the install was hosed shortly thereafter).  now it shows up in nm-applet and ndiswrapper -l, seems to be able to scan ok, but will hang upon trying to connect
[12:11] <PirateHead> XubuntuLover: rute is totally for you, then! It explains all the common linux/unix terminal commands, and how to get more information on them.
[12:11] <cables> detectiveinspekt, removing ubuntu-desktop isn't a big deal
[12:11] <detectiveinspekt> totem is useless as my small toe
[12:11] <ladonna> crdlb wireless connection shows in network along with wired and modem
[12:11] <ladonna> crdlb this is the farthest ive gotten in three weeks
[12:11] <cables> !ubuntu-desktop | detectiveinspekt
[12:11] <ubotu> detectiveinspekt: 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.
[12:11] <crdlb> ladonna, how is it secured?
[12:11] <detectiveinspekt> ok thanks
[12:11] <ladonna> crdlb lsmod shows ath_pci is this correct
[12:11] <PirateHead> detectiveinspekt: Just install another media player, then. Totem is sort of an integral part of Gnome.
[12:12] <crdlb> ladonna, because I don't think you'll be able to do WPA without some major hackery
[12:12] <crdlb> ladonna, but unsecure and WEP will work
[12:12] <joincamp> also, there is no encryption and i've tried 2 different WAPs
[12:12] <ladonna> crdlb i have another system running ubuntu that connects wireless, it uses a broadcom chip though. does this make a difference as far as security
[12:13] <razzorz> wb
[12:13] <razzorz> bafoc:
[12:13] <bafoc> thx
[12:13] <ladonna> crdlb i entered the 128 bit key along with ssid and everything went smoothly
[12:13] <enlightenedpsych> hi, my dvd/cd burner and my cd reader don't seem to work since I have Ubuntu, I have to burn something for tomorrow so if anyone know what it could be help would be appreciate (I've got an error that my drives appeared confuse at the installation)
[12:13] <crdlb> ladonna, ok that's WEP which is supported
[12:14] <XubuntuLover> PirateHead I have learned so much recently. I tried getting into Linux 10 years ago, and had problems, I last got involved in the early days of debian, but found myself still dependant on Redmond too much to justify booting into debian often enough to learn, but after a recent shashdot article about the government bans on vista, plus many governments going odf and ubuntu, I had to try it out. With WoW running better under wine than windows XP, I final
[12:14] <PirateHead> enlightenedpsych: If you boot from the LiveCD, does it recognize your hardware?
[12:14] <bafoc> Piratehead: Very nice... thx for the tip
[12:14] <ladonna> crdlb okay, did you see my lsmod results? not sure if what i have is correct
[12:14] <XubuntuLover> PirateHead I think I need to blog all I learned
[12:14] <PirateHead> XubuntuLover: go for it!
[12:14] <PirateHead> bafoc: you like ChatZilla?
[12:15] <PirateHead> It's so purdy.
[12:15] <crdlb> ladonna, as long as you see ath_pci, everything is fine
[12:15] <bafoc> Ya... just need to change the fonts... to big for me :-)
[12:15] <zyth> Is there some sort of weird issue with adobe's linux download ?
[12:16] <PirateHead> zynth: Which adobe download are we talking about?
[12:16] <zyth> every time I try to dl the flash player over the last two week it never works properly
[12:16] <XubuntuLover> PirateHead Hopefully I can write a worthy book out of the experience. I really want to find a way to give back to the community more... though it appears I can answer more questions here than I thought...
[12:17] <vafada> can i pipe cdparanoia's output to lame to automatically convert the ripped track to mp3?
[12:17] <visualnets> who can tell me how can I install Seamonkey
[12:17] <eck> vafada: yeah, just output as wav
[12:17] <ladonna> crdlb i also see a wlan entry, i guess everything is working as advertised so far.
[12:17] <ladonna> crdlb i apologize for so many questions, would it be alright to post back with results, im going to try to switch from wired to wireless
[12:17] <eck> and then use whatever the input from stdin option in lame is
[12:17] <visualnets> hello all,i need some help about install seamonkey
[12:18] <PirateHead> visualnets: no guarantee, but I'm thinking it's probably "sudo apt-get install mozilla-seamonkey" at the terminal.
[12:18] <crdlb> ladonna, it's working now?
[12:18] <PirateHead> visualnets: try that and tell me fi it works.
[12:18] <reduz> Hi! Question, I upgraded to ubuntu 6.10, and now firefox 2.0, kdevelop, xorg, etc all seem to be heavily memory leaking, as well as gaim 2.0 not working well either..  Will upgrading to 7.04 fix this?
[12:18] <visualnets> PirateHead,thanks
[12:18] <MarcN> vafada: why not use something like grip, abcde, soundjuicer to lookup titles, rip and convert for you?
[12:18] <vafada> eck: cdparanoia 11 | lame - out.mp3 doesn't work
[12:18] <PirateHead> visualnets: are you running Ubuntu Edgy?
[12:19] <eck> hmm, i think i've done this before
[12:19] <eck> let me see
[12:19] <vafada> MarcN: im trying to make my own mp3 ripper :D
[12:19] <PirateHead> visualnets: if you are, one of the dropdowns on Firefox's search engine menu bar is the Ubuntu Package Search. It can give you the names of packages a lot of the time.
[12:19] <crashpute> I have a sapphire X1550 on a Core2-based system (i945p, standard-issue) running Ubuntu 6.06 x64, and I can't get X to load except in VESA mode, both with the open-source and the fglrx driver. Has anybody had any luck with this model?
[12:19] <whonicca> can someone help me with my canon sd600 and ubuntu edgy =\
[12:20] <Phonica> hey all, i have burned a 6.10 cd and am having problems with the partitioning: Trying to shrink an NTFS partition, the error message i ultimately get is "Failed to check /dev/hda1 mount state: No such file or directory, Probably /etc/mtab missing. It's too risky to continue. You might try another Linux distro.
[12:20] <PirateHead> reduz: It might work, but it might also break things.
[12:20] <Phonica> what should i do?
[12:20] <h0ndaracer2> hello how do i go about gettin themost update version of yahoo messenger
[12:20] <Phonica> thinking i might retry with a dedicated gparted livcd
[12:20] <princemackenzie> sounds good, phonica
[12:20] <PirateHead> Phonica: that's a really wierd error. You might want to try the gparted livecd, yeah.
[12:20] <reduz> PirateHead, that kind of sucks... so should I just upgrade back to ubuntu 6.0x ?
[12:20] <Phonica> okay, no other suggestions?
[12:20] <colbert> Can someone tell me how to get a Bluetooth headset working in Ubuntu so I can record my voice ??
[12:21] <PirateHead> reduz: I really have no clue. It's strange that things started running in a lot of memory -- but I've aways had bad experiences with dist-upgrade, so I believe it 100%.
[12:21] <coeu1> What does a md5 have to do with a iso and burning it?
[12:21] <PirateHead> reduz: My best advice, right this instant, is to make sure you backup important data. That way, whatever you do, you don't end up losing good stuff.
[12:21] <h0ndaracer2> !ubuntu yahoo messenger
[12:22] <crashpute> coeul -- the MD5 is a check-type file.
[12:22] <princemackenzie> coeul, it just makes sure the iso downloaded without errors.  i would not worry about it.
[12:22] <PirateHead> coeu1: an md5 lets you verify that what you're burning to the CD isn't in any way corrupted or modified from what the original packager intended.
[12:22] <reap`laptabulous> i installed ubuntu 6.10 from an the alternate cd....when it goes to GUI mode it comes up all messed up and distorted.  Is there any way to go command prompt and update/fix driver for evga geforce 7800gt?
[12:22] <Phonica> reap, use the Safe VGA option from the boot menu
[12:23] <PirateHead> reap`laptabulous: try holding ctrl and alt and pressing F1
[12:23] <eck> vafada: i'm not sure what is wrong with that command, but it must be something close, that's pretty much the same as the way I create files with flac
[12:23] <enlightenedpsych> Piratehead I've installed ubuntu sucessfully with the live cd but I had to use an option (don't remember the word) to install it cause my drives appear confused, but now I can't seem to use the drives
[12:23] <reap`laptabulous> phonica: reload ubuntu required?
[12:23] <crashpute> The file is packed/compressed (if applicable) and using a number factors, creates a number based on that file. The MD5 file is a means of making sure you don't have an error in the ISO (or gzip file, etc)
[12:23] <Phonica> nope thought u where using the livecd still
[12:23] <vafada> eck: no problem.. ill try to experiment some more :D
[12:23] <coeu1> So if i am burning a iso how do i apply a md5?
[12:23] <Phonica> but ye just drop to a vconsole (ctrl+alt+F1)
[12:23] <PirateHead> enlightenedpsych: I don't really know how to fix that. If you have more information, maybe something will come to mind?
[12:24] <zyth> if I had to manually download the install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz where do I put it so apt can use it to install the ubuntu package?
[12:24] <eck> zyth: you can't, you need a .deb
[12:24] <XubuntuLover> Some time ago I used a music player that when running depicted a donkey head as the icon, but can't remember the name of the project  :( any ideas? not eMule
[12:24] <BHSPitMonkey> zyth, you don't... you just put the .so file in your mozilla plugins folder.
[12:24] <PirateHead> reap`laptabulous: seriously, ctrl+alt+F1 ought to get you to a command prompt.
[12:24] <BHSPitMonkey> s/folder/directory/
[12:24] <crashpute> coeul - there is no need to... that is only for checking the file
[12:24] <xxx> dsds
[12:24] <zyth> eck, I don't think you get the question.  The .deb downloads the .tar.gz
[12:25] <coeu1> Okay , so just burning a iso will make it bootable?
[12:25] <coeu1> I am burning it for a ppc machine
[12:25] <crashpute> coeul - yes.
[12:25] <eck> zyth: from multiverse? it just installed it on my computer
[12:25] <XubuntuLover> enlightenedpsych: can you post your fdisk -l to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/? I have a go
[12:25] <Marupa> How come even though I'm using ESD, none of my sounds play simultaneously?
[12:25] <BHSPitMonkey> zyth, just replace your old libflashplayer.so with it...
[12:25] <coeu1> should i use k3b?
[12:25] <zyth> BHSPitMonkey, I don't have one.
[12:25] <cables> Marupa, some apps may be using OSS
[12:25] <PirateHead> coeu1: it depends on whether the iso is bootable to begin with. Are you talking about an Ubutu LiveCD PPC iso?
[12:25] <reap`laptabulous> how difficult is it to install an updated nvidea driver from cmd prompt?
[12:25] <crashpute> coeul even if you're using a pc to burn the ppc image it will be correct. The .iso contains raw data including the appropriate boot image
[12:25] <BHSPitMonkey> zyth, then, drop it into your firefox's plugins dir.
[12:25] <Marupa> cables:  None that I know of.
[12:25] <zyth> BHSPitMonkey, I want to install w/ the deb.
[12:25] <traizor> hello - what is a good way to monitor who is logging into my server (ftp and ssh)? logfiles are a bit clumsy
[12:26] <XubuntuLover> enlightenedpsych: and post the link of course  :)
[12:26] <coeu1> PirateHead: depends on the rules of this channel
[12:26] <Xenguy> traizor: try this: lsof -i
[12:26] <Marupa> MP3 player is using esd, gaim is using esd (I had to hand set it), firefox...that I don't know.
[12:26] <princemackenzie> reap`laptabulous, i would suugest the envy script
[12:26] <PirateHead> coeu1: what rules of the channel are you talking about?
[12:26] <BHSPitMonkey> zyth, sorry... I just did it the normal (quick) way when it was released.
[12:26] <zyth> BHSPitMonkey, no worries.
[12:26] <crashpute> I have a sapphire X1550 on a Core2-based system (i945p, standard-issue) running Ubuntu 6.06 x64, and I can't get X to load except in VESA mode, both with the open-source and the fglrx driver. Has anybody had any luck with this model?
[12:26] <coeu1>  The os doesnt matter it is a iso
[12:26] <coeu1> >>
[12:26] <rucelle> !beryl
[12:26] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[12:27] <PirateHead> coeu1: I don't care if it's a Fedora Core iso or an illegal boolet windows iso. If it's gonna be bootable, it's gonna be bootalbe.
[12:27] <coeu1> A 4 cd instaltion i would imagine the first iso is bootable?
[12:27] <coeu1> PirateHead: it's os x 10.4
[12:27] <zyth> BHSPitMonkey, got it, I had to copy it to /var/cache/flashplugin-nonfree/
[12:27] <coeu1> 4 cd version
[12:27] <crashpute> coeul - it it's Fedora they're probably all bootable
[12:27] <BHSPitMonkey> score.
[12:27] <traizor> Xenguy i mean each time when someone enters the SSH, i want to be notified (like an email)
[12:28] <PirateHead> coeu1: I have no clue how that will work out, then.
[12:28] <iamtheobject> soo uhh lol , i just got a "cpu overloading: aborting sound server" message from ubuntu, and I don't know what I did :P
[12:28] <PirateHead> crashpute, dont' half-read the posts. =P
[12:28] <h0ndaracer2> howdo i get the most up to date yahoo messenger
[12:28] <razzorz> well that was fun
[12:28] <razzorz> AHHAHA
[12:28] <bafoc> wb
[12:28] <eck> the cd has to have a bootloader, unless macs have some automagical way of booting off of specially formatted cds
[12:28] <razzorz> ty
[12:28] <Winball> woah xubuntu :D
[12:28] <Xenguy> traizor: hrm, that might be more tricky... I'm not sure offhand, but doubtless it could be scripted somehow if need be
[12:28] <razzorz> on chatzilla now
[12:28] <bafoc> sweet
[12:28] <coeu1> Worth a shot i have to re install tiger because some thing whent wrong on my ibook and it didn't come with re install cds
[12:28] <Phonica> h0ndaracer2, use GAIM - there is no up to date yahoo messenger for linux
[12:29] <bafoc> it's nice... better than xchat I think
[12:29] <razzorz> ya
[12:29] <kitche> h0ndaracer2: install it from their website the linux version is out of date then the windows one
[12:29] <coeu1> eck: I got it off of demonoid i jsut figured i burn it it will work
[12:29] <razzorz> well if i knew what that last one was called
[12:29] <crashpute> sorry
[12:29] <bafoc> see there razzorz
[12:29] <razzorz> what
[12:29] <razzorz> ya
[12:29] <razzorz> i did
[12:29] <bafoc> Phonica>	h0ndaracer2, use GAIM - there is no up to date yahoo messenger for linux
[12:29] <eck> coeu1: well the bootloader would be in the iso if there was one, all you can really do is burn it and hope it works
[12:29] <Xenguy> !enter
[12:29] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[12:29] <h0ndaracer2> but on gaim they cant send me pics bafoc
[12:29] <h0ndaracer2> thats why i want a more up to date one
[12:29] <XubuntuLover> traizor: what about a log parser with an event driven script to postmail(sp)? just an idea... or that is your question
[12:30] <traizor> Xenguy okay, do you know any general admin tools for monitoring services? maybe there's something i could use
[12:30] <Phonica> h0ndaracer2, GAIM can send and recive files quite happily
[12:30] <kitche> h0ndaracer2: even with the linux version of yahoo messenger they still can't
[12:30] <razzorz> h0ndaracer2: thats why i was tryin to get gaim-vv installed
[12:30] <Marupa> h0ndaracer2, I'm able to send/recieve.  You just have to have your ports forwarded.
[12:30] <h0ndaracer2> how do i do that marupa
[12:30] <PirateHead> h0ndaracer2: some of the older betas had many send/recieve bugs. Are you running an up-to-date version?
[12:30] <traizor> XubuntuLover that sounds good - i was hoping someone had written it already with a nice gui ;)
[12:30] <Marupa> h0ndaracer2, what router do you have?
[12:30] <cables> Smaug, what version of flash are you using?
[12:31] <h0ndaracer2> linksys wrt54g
[12:31] <eck> traizor: try munin/monit or cacti
[12:31] <h0ndaracer2> how do i update gaim
[12:31] <razzorz> so you give up on me there bafoc:
[12:31] <traizor> okay
[12:31] <Smaug> ummm
[12:31] <razzorz> lol
[12:31] <bafoc> lol
[12:31] <razzorz> tomorrow is another day
[12:31] <bafoc> no, just doing some work
[12:31] <razzorz> work is callin me soon
[12:31] <razzorz> no worries
[12:31] <bafoc> before I get out of here
[12:31] <razzorz> sall good
[12:31] <bafoc> ok, welp lets try again tomorrow
[12:32] <PirateHead> h0ndaracer2: type in your terminal "gaim --version" and tell me what it says.
[12:32] <bafoc> did you get my email?
[12:32] <razzorz> for sure...
[12:32] <razzorz> nope
[12:32] <bafoc> hmm
[12:32] <bafoc> msn... figures
[12:32] <Marupa> h0ndaracer2, go to 192.168.0.1  and put in your username and password (default is username/password, if I recall, or maybe admin/password)...anyway, look for portforwarding, point a set of ports (the 5000 range is good) to your private IP, then restart the router, change the ports GAIM uses, and you're good to go.
[12:32] <bafoc> hehe yahoo... not sure
[12:32] <XubuntuLover> traizor  yeah... that would be nice. the key I think would be a program like that would be easy to write. grep for key words initiates an event. event triggers script with data from the grep
[12:32] <Phonica> Marupa, sometimes 192.168.1.1
[12:33] <Smaug> cable:i dont really know what one it is
[12:33] <PirateHead> !enter | bafoc, razzorz
[12:33] <ubotu> bafoc, razzorz: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[12:33] <razzorz> wth
[12:33] <cables> Smaug, run aptitude show flashplugin-nonfree | grep Version
[12:33] <XubuntuLover> traizor been looking to find some time to learn python. Think you may have just inspired me  :)
[12:33] <bafoc> I'm not
[12:33] <reap`laptabulous> is envy script something you run from cmd prompt?
[12:33] <razzorz> makes two of us
[12:33] <crashpute> I have a sapphire X1550 on a Core2-based system (i945p, standard-issue) running Ubuntu 6.06 x64, and I can't get X to load except in VESA mode, both with the open-source and the fglrx driver. Does anybody know about any problems with the new ATI chips?
[12:33] <eck> traizor: cacti has about a million plugins, i'm sure there's one for keeping track of users
[12:33] <bieb> Is there a partition/volume size limit? I want to connect 5 750gb drives to a raid card in a backup server running Ubuntu and rsnapshot
[12:34] <bafoc> great PriateHead... guess chatzilla needs to be open wide so the line doesn't wrap ?
[12:34] <Phonica> crashpute, have you read the ATI howto?
[12:34] <Marupa> Phonica, true.
[12:34] <Smaug> cablde: i needed it when i went on youtube so i picked the one on the left becasue it was the only one that worked but it works except for it has no sound
[12:34] <Phonica> bieb, no limits at all other than the normal max 4 primary partitions per physical disk
[12:34] <guest> If i switch to a different user, I cant resolve url addresses anymore. If I enter a ip address into the browser I can still access the website, what could be the problem
[12:34] <PirateHead> bafoc: what line are you talking about?
[12:34] <XubuntuLover> crashpute: Thanks for reminding me of why I love nVidia  :)
[12:34] <crashpute> phonica - I've read ATI's, Ubuntu's, and several independent web pages.
[12:34] <traizor> XubuntuLover hehe :) i'll see what i can think of. it shouldnt be too hard indeed
[12:34] <razzorz> bafoc: do i need to put my list back?
[12:34] <bafoc> you said I was using the enter key
[12:34] <traizor> eck: i'll' have a look at it, thanks!
[12:34] <Phonica> crashpute, go get an nVidia board :P
[12:34] <Phonica> lol
[12:34] <bafoc> yes razzorz
[12:35] <razzorz> ok
[12:35] <razzorz> tell me how
[12:35] <crashpute> X - For as many years as I've been a dedicated ATI fan, this is definitely my last one.
[12:35] <Phonica> AMD + nVidia + Linux = Happiness in a can :D
[12:35] <bafoc> cp sources.list /etc/apt
[12:35] <keyser_soze> for some reason, I'm not able to update the linux-restricted-modules-generic with today's other updates. tried in synaptic and apt-get and no dice. I get the following error: linux-restricted-modules-generic:
[12:35] <keyser_soze>  Depends: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-11-generic  but it is not installable
[12:35] <PirateHead> bafoc: I said that after you posted like 3 messages in a row a few times. You were "thinking out loud" and using too many lines of text.
[12:35] <razzorz> ty
[12:35] <traizor> just want to have an image of who is connecting to my server
[12:35] <Terrasque> Phonica: amd bough ati, didn't they?
[12:35] <Phonica> yea i know, ironic isnt it?
[12:35] <bieb> Phonica, so chuck the disks in, connect them to the raid card and 3tb if backup storage?
[12:35] <XubuntuLover> I am having "this" problem with ATI is starting to sound a lot like "Windows keeps..." ?!?
[12:35] <reap`laptabulous> phonica: if thats true, why isnt mine happy :(
[12:35] <Phonica> bieb, aye
[12:35] <PirateHead> bafoc: it's not a big deal, just as long as you're aware of it.
[12:35] <Terrasque> Phonica: indeed :D
[12:35] <levander> Terrasque: yeah, amd bought ati
[12:35] <bafoc> phew IRC has gotton picky
[12:35] <guest> If i switch to a different user, I cant resolve url addresses anymore. If I enter a ip address into the browser I can still access the website, what could be the problem
[12:35] <bieb> Coolio
[12:36] <eck> keyser_soze: wait for the ubuntu developers to fix it, sometimes the packages get inconsistent in feisty
[12:36] <crashpute> This is my last ATI re: AMD just bought them
[12:36] <GMWeezel> Does real player have to be installed to watch RM files on Linux?
[12:36] <keyser_soze> thanks eck
[12:36] <crashpute> I'm a video person... they've always done better there
[12:36] <bafoc> or I should say maybe it's just the channel rules :-)
[12:36] <bjames> hi, I've just installed Ubuntu on what is to be my fileserver - I have two drives (one with the filesystem and swap partition and the other is a blank reiserfs drive).  Is there an easy way (using lvm?) to amalgamate the drive space so it appears like one large folder/drive?
[12:36] <Phonica> GMWeezel, nope - mplayer can do it (or anything based on it such as xine)
[12:36] <khaije1> what are the combo keys to resize my X display ?
[12:36] <jomino> GMWeezel, no you could also use the helix player afaik
[12:36] <levander> khaije1: Ctrl Alt +
[12:36] <PirateHead> bafoc: it's because it's a busy channel. It helps to keep readability high.
[12:36] <eck> bjames: yeah, you use lvm and put both drives on the same LV
[12:37] <levander> khaije1: or minus to go down
[12:37] <GMWeezel> thanks all
[12:37] <razzorz> so about this shift backspace logging me out all the time... anyone know how to dissable that..besides the keyboard shortcuts
[12:37] <khaije1> levander: thx!
[12:37] <bafoc> I get it... thx
[12:37] <bjames> eck: how do I install/setup/use lvm?
[12:37] <bjames> eck: is there a decent, simple tutorial?
[12:37] <Smaug> cable: it doesnt seem to work
[12:37] <guest> If i switch to a different user, I cant resolve url addresses anymore. If I enter a ip address into the browser I can still access the website, what could be the problem
[12:37] <XubuntuLover> bjames You want a RAID0?
[12:37] <Terrasque> bjames: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/
[12:37] <Smaug> it says that it is not found
[12:37] <bafoc> bjames: google " how to setup lvm"
[12:37] <eck> bjames: i don't think anything with lvm is simple :-)
[12:37] <levander> razzorz: that's an X thing, it'd be in the X config (not GNOME), Ctrl Backspace kills the X Server - which kills your login session
[12:38] <Terrasque> eck: lvm is really simple. at least until a hdd goes to hell
[12:38] <bjames> XubuntuLover: eek, no!
[12:38] <K-Rich> Hi all, i keep getting the error 'E: The package index files are corrupted. No Filename: field for package gnupg.' when trying to do an 'sudo apt-get upgrade'  how do i fix this?
[12:38] <Terrasque> bjames: lvm is raid0 without the speed increase.. well, almost :p
[12:38] <razzorz> levander: ya .. how anoying
[12:38] <bjames> if there's no simple (i.e. a few clicks in ubuntu, or a few commands) way of doing it I might not bother and just mount the drive in the share directory
[12:38] <XubuntuLover> bjames I finally got my raid to work under dmraid perfectly, with some effort, so just wanted to check
[12:38] <Terrasque> bjames: more flexible, but same stellar reliability
[12:39] <bjames> Terrasque: no, it's not
[12:39] <levander> razzorz: not saying it shouldn't annoy you if it does, but that's been there forever and I've never heard anyone else complain about it.  Are you hitting Ctrl Backspace on accident somehow?

[12:40] <levander> Phonica: when you say bluetooth adapter, you mean just like a bluetooth card that fits in a PCI slot or is integrated on the motherboard?  You mean the hardware when you say adapter?

[12:41] <Phonica> yes i do mean the hardware

[12:41] <ubotu> VeganChic2: 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)
[12:41] <VeganChic2> sorry for the flood, does anyone understand that?
[12:42] <levander> VeganChic2: don't do that in here
[12:42] <VeganChic2> i don't have time for that, I'm sorry
[12:42] <laptop-problems> Fixed the ISO, I mean.
[12:42] <FP|Sleep> GoodNight all
[12:42] <bruenig> laptop-problems, well presumably you could download the torrent and open it and then have it save to the same spot and since it hash checks all the pieces, it would correct anything that is off
[12:42] <razzorz> Vegan: pastebin is faster then you think
[12:42] <Phonica> VeganChic2, you trying to install ubuntu on a mac?
[12:42] <Slick> hey, is it possible to set up samba so you don't need to provide a username and password when connecting to the shared folders?
[12:42] <VeganChic2> phonica, yes
[12:42] <levander> VeganChic2: I understand it, but what do you want to do with it?
[12:42] <reap`laptabulous> is there a help guide to use envy script?
[12:42] <kitche> VeganChic2: well it's hard teo tell what you pasted since the formatting is wrong it just looks like a bunch of numbers to me
[12:42] <laptop-problems> Hash check, that was it! Now we're getting somewhere.
[12:43] <bafoc> ok, gotta get... take care razzorz, see ya PirateHead
[12:43] <K-Rich> Slick sure is... that's how i have it set on my lan
[12:43] <Bi||aBong> why when i created ext3 partition and i mount this, it have a folder icon and not hard disk folder and the files in the partition only have permission for root user?
[12:43] <razzorz> Peace bafoc:::
[12:43] <razzorz> thank you bro
[12:43] <levander> And Vegan, it don't take long to paste, and now your data has scrolled off the screen making it diffiecult to see.
[12:43] <bafoc> np
[12:43] <Slick> K-Rich, do you know how I would go about setting that up?
[12:43] <Xenguy> levander: /lastlog nick
[12:43] <razzorz> i am out too that dirty four letter word is calling
[12:43] <bruenig> I just go for bittorrent all the time, it isn't any slower because ubuntu is so popular and you don't have to worry about md5 or anything else
[12:43] <razzorz> WORK

[12:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about envy script - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:43] <Godsey> what is the correct entry for /etc/hostname if the host is just domain.com?
[12:44] <levander> Xenguy: what?
[12:44] <VeganChic2> levander, I don't know is that's right
[12:44] <bruenig> reap`laptabulous, did the first response not satisfy you?
[12:44] <kitche> Xenguy: that only works if you log and your client supports it
[12:44] <PirateHead> laptop-problems: each Ubuntu download page has a torrent file down near the bottom. Need me to find you a specific link?
[12:44] <h0ndaracer2> hey i get this when i try to update gaim
[12:44] <h0ndaracer2> gaim is already the newest version.
[12:44] <h0ndaracer2> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 9 not upgraded.
[12:44] <bruenig> laptop-problems, same place you downloaded it, just scroll down and select the torrent
[12:44] <Xenguy> levander: a way to aggregate the statements of a particular nick is, for example: /lastlog levander
[12:44] <K-Rich> Slick, unter the 'Authentication' heading in /etc/samba/smb.conf  change 'security = user' to 'security = share'
[12:44] <reap`laptabulous> didnt see it
[12:44] <Kronuz> hey, how would you add a "command prompt" or "shell here" in the folder's dropdown menus?
[12:44] <levander> VeganChic2: are you using a front end to generate that, like parted or fdisk? you shouldn't write that stuff by hand
[12:44] <Xenguy> kitche: oh, OK -- works here, and very handy too :-)
[12:44] <eck> h0ndaracer2: you might have to dist-upgrade (or use install)
[12:45] <Kronuz> is it possible?
[12:45] <laptop-problems> The thing is, I can't find that on the new download page
[12:45] <laptop-problems> .
[12:45] <levander> VeganChic2: if it's generated by some well known program, it's probably right.
[12:45] <PirateHead> laptop-problems: holy crap! they completely changed the layout of everything!
[12:45] <h0ndaracer2> i did sudo apt-get install gaim
[12:45] <Phonica> Kronuz, create a new menu item as u normally would and the command line is xterm or gnome-terminal
[12:45] <XubuntuLover> I know I am not phrasing this right, but is there a way to have 2 different Xserver sessions running simultaniously with DIFFERENT xorg.conf files?
[12:45] <VeganChic2> levander, front end? i'm using the instructions on ubuntu
[12:45] <K-Rich> Kronuz, you need to add a nautilus script
[12:45] <sene23> ok so this link didn't help
[12:45] <PirateHead> laptop-problems: the website just changed a ton. let me look harder. =D
[12:45] <sene23> I need a very new driver...
[12:45] <laptop-problems> Yes, I just noticed that today. -.-
[12:45] <eck> then maybe it's up to date
[12:45] <Kronuz> K-Rich, do you know how?
[12:45] <Slick> K-Rich, thanks very much, you're a legend
[12:45] <laptop-problems> Thanks alot.
[12:45] <sene23> I tried to install the nvidia drivers using the envy script
[12:45] <levander> VeganChic2: a front end meaning like a UI, just are you using some kind of menu driven program to generate that data
[12:45] <Absolute0> how can i get gaim 2.0 beta 6 on breezy?
[12:45] <h0ndaracer2> nvm i got it
[12:45] <VeganChic2> help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook
[12:45] <laptop-problems> I would, but I'm loosing patience quickly. x.x
[12:45] <Phonica> XubuntuLover, X or startx takes a param to tell it what config file to use. man startx
[12:45] <sene23> but that doesn't work - module installs and loads, startx does nothing
[12:45] <levander> Xenguy: thanks

[12:46] <K-Rich> Kronuz, one sec trying to remember lol
[12:46] <sene23> kitche: yes
[12:46] <cookthis> i was wondering how to install Fatx support for ubuntu?
[12:46] <kitche> !nvidia9 | sene23
[12:46] <ubotu> sene23: envy is a Python script that eases installation of the official Nvidia and ATI drivers. Please see http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html . Developers may be interested in https://launchpad.net/products/envy - See also !Nvidia
[12:46] <sene23> I read that
[12:46] <Phonica> sene23, show me the device section of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:46] <Ghiddo> apparently nforce2 and also don't play nice
[12:46] <Ghiddo> alsa*
[12:46] <eck> cookthis: fat is supported natively
[12:46] <levander> Is there an apt command to see why a certain package is being held back during upgrades?
[12:46] <cookthis> eck: Fatx
[12:46] <sene23> Phonica: well if you want to know if it uses driver "nvidia" - it does
[12:46] <kitche> sene23: the nvidia and nvidia9 switch is completely different
[12:46] <bruenig> levander, you can just sudo apt-get install it, generally
[12:47] <Absolute0> how can i get gaim 2.0 beta 6 on breezy?
[12:47] <sene23> kitche: mind if we do this in a query window? i'm on a terribly low console resolution
[12:47] <levander> bruenig: I'm trying "sudo aptitude upgrade", but it says it's holding a couple of packages back.  I want to know why.
[12:47] <Phonica> sene23, in a console do sudo modprobe nvidia
[12:47] <Phonica> then startx
[12:47] <levander> bruenig: Oh, nm, I just understood your answer.
[12:47] <sene23> Phonica: it loads the module, but doesn't startx
[12:47] <sene23> it stays blank
[12:47] <rpc> does anyone know what may cause ftp to finish sending file early? like last several bytes missing
[12:47] <Phonica> just plain black blank?
[12:47] <sene23> indeed
[12:47] <PirateHead> laptop-problems: found it. still there?
[12:47] <Phonica> are you using SLi or single-card?
[12:48] <laptop-problems> Mhmm.
[12:48] <sene23> Phonica: single card
[12:48] <laptop-problems> Also, I need the Alternate Install CD.
[12:48] <Phonica> DVI or VGA?
[12:48] <sene23> DVI
[12:48] <cookthis> anyone?
[12:48] <Phonica> whats the default bit depth?
[12:48] <Xenguy> rpc: would wget help ?
[12:48] <sene23> Phonica: 24 - it DID work using an older envy script, but it hanged when installing beryl
[12:48] <kitche> laptop-problems: you get that the same place you get the torrents and iso
[12:48] <lisapc> edgy doesnt respond to opening anything.  how can i rebbot using cli?
[12:48] <Phonica> odd
[12:48] <sene23> so I figured I need the latest or semi-latest drivers
[12:48] <sene23> yea
[12:48] <rpc> Xenguy never checked but i need to allow someone on ftp and he can't receive as every files gets broken
[12:48] <sene23> for an nvidia 8800
[12:49] <PirateHead> laptop-problems: for i386 / x86 architecture?
[12:49] <VeganChic2> Apparently there wasn't a problem with the MBR and GRUB, because ubuntu installed successfully.
[12:49] <Phonica> what driver ver u got?
[12:49] <cookthis> what linux kernal does Ubuntu 6.10 use?
[12:49] <laptop-problems> Yep.
[12:49] <coeu1> extracting and burning t hem wish me luck
[12:49] <sene23> Phonica: it tries to install 9755 i *think*
[12:49] <rpc> Xenguy last several bytes being cut or a few thousands bytes
[12:49] <sene23> it zaps through my screen too fast *g*
[12:49] <Phonica> sene23, tried a manual install?
[12:49] <Xenguy> rpc: maybe that's a different issue then
[12:49] <sene23> Phonica: yea, same problem
[12:49] <PirateHead> laptop-problems: 6.10, right? if so, this ought to be the one: http://ubuntu-releases.cs.umn.edu//6.10/ubuntu-6.10-alternate-i386.iso.torrent
[12:49] <VeganChic2> However, last time I tried, I had kernel panic, even thought I followed the instructions.
[12:50] <Xenguy> rpc: altho he could try 'wget -c' if that is an option for him (to retrieve the rest of the file from where he last left off)
[12:50] <Phonica> sene23, tried making a new conf file using xorgconfig ?
[12:50] <lisapc> what key combo reboots edgy?
[12:50] <sene23> Phonica: no, but I could do that
[12:50] <Phonica> id try it
[12:50] <sene23> Phonica: hang on - if I part it's because the system hangs :)
[12:50] <VeganChic2> Should I be given the option to choose my language and keymap right after booting from a Live CD of Edgy 6.10?
[12:50] <Phonica> okay
[12:50] <Phonica> create a really dumb and simple one
[12:50] <Phonica> and just change to nvidia
[12:50] <PirateHead> VeganChic2: no, only during installation.
[12:51] <PirateHead> VeganChic2: as far as I know, the LiveCD is only available in English.
[12:51] <sene23> Phonica: ok - what package does that app belong to?
[12:51] <sene23> (can't seem to find it)
[12:51] <VeganChic2> I was just wondering, because the instructions say to select those right after you boot off the CD...
[12:51] <Phonica> it should be part of xorg
[12:51] <Phonica> sudo xorgconfig
[12:51] <cb_> lameness
[12:51] <sene23> hmm. odd. it's a freshly installed and updated system
[12:51] <PirateHead> VeganChic2: I have never had that experience.
[12:51] <VeganChic2> Has anyone dual booted Ubuntu on a MacBook?
[12:52] <wendell> hey guys... i'm installing on the live cd right now and partitioning is taking forever (like over 30mins) is this normal?
[12:52] <VeganChic2> PirateHead, me either, that's why the instructions confused me...
[12:52] <PirateHead> wendell: partitioning can take a very long time, especially if you're doing something like resizing an existing Windows partition.
[12:52] <wendell> oh ok
[12:53] <VeganChic2> :-X Windows
[12:53] <cb_> GD VNC
[12:53] <PirateHead> VeganChic2: it's good for virus testing! =P
[12:53] <sene23> file not found!
[12:53] <VeganChic2> PirateHead, good idea!
[12:53] <sene23> anyway, i'm sure its a standard config
[12:54] <wendell> how do i find out which version i have (dapper or edgy)
[12:54] <sene23> Phonica: it does load using the vesa driver, but I can't get back to console if I start it
[12:54] <VeganChic2> hopefully I don't encounter kernel panic when I try to boot up...
[12:54] <sene23> which makes it hard to use
[12:54] <sene23> especially with envy
[12:54] <Phonica> sene23, odd
[12:54] <K-Rich> Kronuz, you need to add this script to ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts and chmod 755 it ... name it what you want it to say on the right click menu ... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10538/
[12:54] <XubuntuLover> How do I boot from CD on a Power Macintosh G3 (beige). I have Ubuntu Edgy PPC install disc.
[12:54] <Phonica> sene23, if u do a ctrl+alt+backspace do u end up back at a console?
[12:54] <AnxiousCo> Hi. I have an HP Deskjet 3820. It took me awhile to finally get it not to say "printer error" when I was trying to print, but now it accepts the job and just doesn't print it. I even tried cancelling all the jobs and just printing a test page; no avail. Can someone point me in the correct direction?
[12:54] <XubuntuLover> I tried holding "c"
[12:54] <sene23> Phonica: using vesa? no, screen is blank and halts
[12:55] <sene23> Phonica: this system might be too new *g*
[12:55] <Phonica> nah the 8 series are workin reasonably well atm
[12:55] <Phonica> even 8800GTX SLi is working
[12:55] <Terrasque> AnxiousCo: maybe there was a reason for that printer error?
[12:55] <Phonica> hmmm
[12:55] <Phonica> what mobo chipset?
[12:55] <K-Rich> Hi all, i keep getting the error 'E: The package index files are corrupted. No Filename: field for package gnupg.' when trying to do an 'sudo apt-get upgrade'  how do i fix this?

[12:56] <XubuntuLover> Anyone here have experience installing Ubuntu on a PowerMacintosh G3 Beige?
[12:56] <sene23> Phonica: yes -- when I lspci, it does say this: VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation Unknown device 0193 (rev a2)
[12:56] <AnxiousCo> I believe the error was from not setting it up correctly or from not rebooting
[12:56] <Phonica> 1 mo
[12:56] <sene23> cheers
[12:56] <K-Rich> Kronuz, np
[12:56] <yurimxpxman> I'm trying to install the RHIDE IDE, but the .deb package gives me this error: "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: xlibs". Any ideas?
[12:56] <wendell> ok last question... can gnome run kde apps
[12:56] <joincamp> yes
[12:56] <Xenguy> wendell: yes
[12:57] <Phonica> sene23, you may ahve another problem, for me lspci actually lists the card details

[12:57] <sene23> Phonica: the latest kernel is .17-11 right/
[12:57] <sene23> ?
[12:57] <XubuntuLover> yurimxpxman can I assume xlibs is installed?
[12:57] <Phonica> for ubuntu or for linux in general?
[12:57] <wendell> great cuz i gotta get k3b and konversation

[12:57] <sene23> Phonica: ubuntu
[12:57] <sene23> maybe I should go vanilla
[12:57] <Phonica> sene23, no idea im a gentoo user
[12:57] <yurimxpxman> XubuntuLover: I'm not exactly sure. apt-get seemed to be confused by it
[12:58] <sene23> Phonica: lol, me too originally, got beryl to work on that just fine :)
[12:58] <sene23> am at a mates pc now
[12:58] <Phonica> likewise
[12:58] <joincamp> sene23: im .17-11 and current with edgy
[12:58] <Phonica> installing ubuntu on a workmates laptop
[12:58] <K-Rich> i keep getting the error 'E: The package index files are corrupted. No Filename: field for package gnupg.' when trying to do an 'sudo apt-get upgrade'  how do i fix this?
[12:58] <sene23> joincamp: ok, thank you
[12:58] <Kronuz> K-Rich, do I have to restart X for it to work?
[12:58] <yurimxpxman> the current kernel is 2.20.x, btw
[12:58] <AnxiousCo> Has anyone else had troubles with printers?
[12:58] <Phonica> most up to date is 2.6.20-r2/3
[12:58] <yurimxpxman> er, 2.6.20 I mean
[12:58] <K-Rich> Kronuz, i don't think so, not sure, been a while since i did it
[12:58] <jrib> K-Rich: what version of ubuntu?  Pastebin your sources.list.  Have you ever used unofficial repositories or installed packages manually?
[12:58] <XubuntuLover> AnxiousCo local printer?
[12:59] <yurimxpxman> the latest kernel can be downloaded from http://www.kernel.org/
[12:59] <sene23> so, got clues left this far?
[12:59] <K-Rich> jrib, yeah i have... one sec and i'll paste it
[12:59] <sene23> or would it be wise to see how far nvidia gets us
[12:59] <sene23> eerr, vanilla
[12:59] <XubuntuLover> AnxiousCo How is the printer connected?
[12:59] <K-Rich> jrib, and it's dapper drake, doing the upgrade before i move to edgy
[12:59] <Kronuz> K-Rich, nope, you don't have to restart, it works great! thanks :)
[12:59] <sene23> i've been at this for hours
[12:59] <Absolute0> is there a way i can get files through gaim?
[01:00] <Absolute0> it doesnt work?
[01:00] <Absolute0> i am running on breezy
[01:00] <yurimxpxman> XubuntuLover: Yes, I have xlibs installed
[01:00] <K-Rich> Kronuz, np
[01:00] <jrib> K-Rich: ok, pastebin 'apt-cache policy gnupg' as well
[01:00] <VeganChick> Note to self: They really do mean it when they tell you never, ever to shut down via power button...
[01:00] <XubuntuLover> Absolute0 Yes, but not IRC
[01:01] <XubuntuLover> as far as I know
[01:01] <Phonica> whats compatability like with atheros 802.11 cards?
[01:01] <sene23> Phonica: got clues left?
[01:01] <Phonica> sene23, im all out sorry mate
[01:01] <sene23> ok cheers for the thoughts :)
[01:01] <VeganChick> I have Ubuntu dualbooting on my MacBook now though, very nice. :D
[01:01] <XubuntuLover> Any experience with Edgy PPC?
[01:01] <colbert> What is the ubuntu "equivalent" of ipconfig in Windows? Like to get my IP, release/renew, etc.
[01:02] <XubuntuLover> colbert bump
[01:02] <Kyral> ifconfig/dhcpcd
[01:02] <kupesoft> colbert: ifconfig (not dhcpcd)
[01:02] <K-Rich> jrib, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10541/  is sources.list
[01:02] <kupesoft> colbert: dhclient to release/renew
[01:02] <colbert> so what would be command to just get my ip in shell
[01:02] <Kyral> kupesoft: dhcpcd is used on more distros
[01:02] <XubuntuLover> kyral thanks
[01:03] <kupesoft> Kyral: dhclient3 on debian/ubuntu AFAIK
[01:03] <wendell> how do i find out if i have the latest drivers for all my hardware? and will update manage keep all my software up to date?
[01:03] <kupesoft> colbert: ifconfig <device>
[01:03] <Kyral> kupesoft: *shrug* Last I knew dhcpcd also worked
[01:03] <Phonica> where can i find a howto for getting atheros ar5005g wifi working?
[01:03] <kupesoft> colbert: try "ifconfig"
[01:03] <XubuntuLover> wendell update manager manages packages, including drivers
[01:03] <colbert> Thanks
[01:03] <wendell> ok
[01:03] <ladonna> crdlb u still there
[01:03] <crdlb> ladonna, yess
[01:04] <crdlb> yes*
[01:04] <wendell> so my nvidia drivers should be up to date then
[01:04] <kupesoft> colbert: And find out which device you're using to connect to the internet (probably eth0, wlan0, ath0, or ra0)
[01:04] <jrib> K-Rich: sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get update
[01:04] <ladonna> crdlb okay, everything is workin. talk about timing, the internet went down right when I was switching to wireless
[01:04] <jrib> K-Rich: what are those last two repos you have for?
[01:04] <colbert> kupesoft: yup it's eth0
[01:04] <K-Rich> jrib, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10542/
[01:04] <kupesoft> colbert: Then, in the figure: ifconfig eth0
[01:04] <colbert> thanks this is much better than ipconfig lol
[01:04] <Luzhin> newbie here; #ubuntu-classroom sched is outdated, still operating?
[01:05] <crdlb> ladonna, great
[01:05] <ladonna> crdlb yes, this is awsome, i cant thank you enough
[01:05] <Dane1> Hello, all.  Has anybody ever had a problem with not being able to browse the windows network as a normal user, but being able to browse it as root?
[01:05] <XubuntuLover> dane1 sounds like a permissions issue. Have you restarted since adding the server?
[01:06] <K-Rich> jrib, http://asher256-repository.tuxfamily.org/index.php?page=home&lang=en
[01:06] <Dane1> yes, I have.
[01:06] <jrib> K-Rich: k
[01:06] <kupesoft> colbert if you want to list JUST your ip: ifconfig eth0 | awk /eth0/'{next}//{split($0,a,":");split(a[2] ,a," ");print a[1] ;exit}'
[01:06] <Dane1> any other ideas? (thanks!)
[01:07] <XubuntuLover> dane1 I have found when I add a new NTFS raid0, I can only access it as root until restart. Otherwise don't know. just sounded similar
[01:07] <ladonna> crdlb okay well i have to go i just wanted to touch base and let you know everything is working. thanks again for all your help
[01:07] <K-Rich> jrib, the apt-get clean && apt-get update worked,  but the when i tried apt-get upgrade i got the same error
[01:07] <Dane1> ok.
[01:07] <Dane1> I'll restart again; I have made some changes recently...
[01:07] <isstern35> can someone tell me how i can uninstall a program
[01:07] <colbert> kupesoft: Thanks, that works like a charm!
[01:07] <Absolute0> which pkg i need to get gcc?
[01:07] <XubuntuLover> dane is this a local windows network?
[01:08] <Xenguy> Absolute0: build-essential
[01:08] <XubuntuLover> gcc-core?
[01:08] <Absolute0> thats what i wanted...
[01:08] <Absolute0> thanks
[01:08] <Xenguy> yw
[01:08] <kupesoft> colbert: The beauty of unix ;/
[01:09] <Absolute0> can i get adium on ubuntu?
[01:09] <kupesoft> colbert to renew your dhcp lease: sudo dhclient eth0
[01:09] <Absolute0> its much better than gaim
[01:09] <preaction> Absolute0: it's called "Gaim"
[01:09] <isstern35> can someone tell me how i can uninstall kubuntu
[01:09] <kupesoft> colbert: that will disconnect you, though
[01:09] <shatrat> isstern35, "sudo apt-get remove programname" if you installed it using the normal ubuntu software installers
[01:09] <Absolute0> no i want adium
[01:09] <XubuntuLover> apt-get GCC repositories can be foundat http://www.telenovela-world.com/~spade/linux/howto/PA-RISC-Linux-Boot-HOWTO/gcc.html
[01:09] <Xenguy> Absolute0: apt-cache search adium
[01:09] <Absolute0> gaim doesnt let u download files
[01:09] <Absolute0> :(
[01:09] <jrib> K-Rich: try commenting *all* of the repos, 'apt-get update', then uncommenting again
[01:09] <jrib> then apt-get update
[01:09] <colbert> kupesoft: So I am using eth0 as the identifier? Don't have to type in my IP?
[01:09] <preaction> Absolute0: are you using the latest gaim beta?
[01:09] <Absolute0> i'll try installing from source
[01:10] <Absolute0> no ubuntu doesnt have that
[01:10] <kupesoft> colbert: DHCP has nothing to do with an IP address, so no, you don't
[01:10] <bruenig> jrib, seems like a sudo mv sources.list sources.list.old would be a tad easier
[01:10] <Xenguy> Absolute0: checkout 'checkinstall' for that
[01:10] <Absolute0> thats why i needed gcc...
[01:10] <kupesoft> colbert: DHCP words at the hardware address level,
[01:10] <Absolute0> i am on breezy...
[01:10] <Absolute0> whats checkinstall?
[01:10] <bruenig> !info checkinstall
[01:10] <Tb0n3> what does ubuntu use for wireless?
[01:10] <ubotu> checkinstall: installation tracker. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.6.0-2ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 88 kB, installed size 392 kB
[01:10] <Xenguy> apt-cache show checkinstall
[01:10] <Xenguy> :-)
[01:10] <jrib> bruenig: true, I wasn't sure if apt would complain about not having any sources.list so I took the easy way out for me :o
[01:10] <preaction> Absolute0: you're on breezy and you want up-to-date software?
[01:10] <kupesoft> colbert: Actually, DHCP has everything to do with IP addresses, but the initial transaction is done through hardware addresses
[01:10] <bruenig> jrib, ah good point
[01:11] <Absolute0> ye
[01:11] <Absolute0> u wanna ship the disk over night?
[01:11] <Absolute0> :-D
[01:11] <XubuntuLover> ubuntu for ppc should work on any ppc mac no matter how old, if it has enough memory and disk spacefor installer, hypothetically?
[01:11] <colbert> kupesoft: Ahhh, I see. So then to release all is "sudo dhclient eth0"? Or is that renew? If so what is cmd for releasing ?
[01:11] <underguiz> i'm trying to get tvtime working with fglrx  8.34.8, but i keep getting an error about missing YUY2 extension. I have enabled videooverlay. someone with the same problem? hum, i'm runing kernel 2.6.20
[01:11] <XubuntuLover> new question:ubuntu for ppc should work on any ppc mac no matter how old, if it has enough memory and disk spacefor installer, hypothetically?
[01:11] <kupesoft> colbert: I'm not 100% sure, check the man page for dhclient (I can for you, if you want)
[01:11] <Absolute0> XubuntuLover, the hardware is a little buggy on macs...
[01:11] <Absolute0> much easier on pcs...
[01:11] <Xenguy> Absolute0: checkinstall will create a .deb for you
[01:12] <VeganChick> XubuntuLover: how far back are you going?
[01:12] <Xenguy> Absolute0: with luck :-)
[01:12] <Absolute0> what exactly do i need checkinstall for?
[01:12] <VeganChick> It works just fine on a G3 iBook.
[01:12] <colbert> kupesoft: Thx, no need for you to do it bud, I need to learn this stuff :)
[01:12] <XubuntuLover> absolute0 I have an old powermac g3 (the beige one)
[01:12] <preaction> Absolute0: makes it easier to manage the source install
[01:12] <kupesoft> colbert: You need to learn about man pages! Try "man man" or "man dhclient" to learn about dhclient
[01:12] <Absolute0> so how would i use checkinstall?
[01:12] <XubuntuLover> VeganChick PowerMac G3 Beige
[01:13] <preaction> Absolute0: man checkinstall; or use "checkinstall" instead of "make install"
[01:13] <VeganChick> XubuntuLover: I would definitely give it a try. The worst thing that can happen is that it does work, right?
[01:13] <Xenguy> Absolute0: it creates a .deb file, so you can install (or uninstall later) with synaptic or apt-get
[01:13] <Absolute0> oh ok
[01:13] <Absolute0> gotcha
[01:13] <K-Rich> jrib, trying now
[01:13] <kupesoft> colbert: sudo dhclient -r eth0
[01:13] <isstern35> can someone tell me how to uninstall kubuntu
[01:13] <kupesoft> colbert: that'll release it,
[01:13] <Absolute0> do they have .deb for the new gaim on ubuntu site?
[01:13] <colbert> kupesoft: Thanks! Yup I'
[01:13] <Xenguy> Absolute0: i.e. a .deb. file from the source (you get the idea I'm sure)
[01:13] <colbert> woops I meant I'm reading it rite now lol
[01:14] <kupesoft> colbert: I'll brb,
[01:14] <Xenguy> Absolute0: apt-get show gaim
[01:14] <Absolute0> i got breezy
[01:14] <preaction> Absolute0: maybe in the backports? but i think there's no backport repo for breezy
[01:14] <Absolute0> so its gonn show me the old versions..
[01:14] <XubuntuLover> VeganChick I can't get the CD to boot. It will boot on a blue Imac G4, but the installer crashes. Think I possibly burned the CD wrong. bootable CD's are much easier to build under Ubuntu. This was just the Windows XP default ISO burn
[01:15] <Xenguy> Absolute0: breezy will soon not be supported - I have a laptop with breezy, so I'm going to have to re-install, er, something :-)
[01:15] <Absolute0> ye i am gonna try to burn edgy at my school tomorrow
[01:15] <kupesoft> ;/
[01:15] <Absolute0> my burner is broken
[01:15] <Absolute0> :(
[01:16] <RDUBBALO> anyone know about setting up a printer in edgy
[01:16] <XubuntuLover> RDUBBALO that it a very open ended question, but I have set up a few printers. what seems to be the problem?
[01:16] <jvai_> every1's on edgy.. i feel so.,,,, outdated, on dapper
[01:17] <Xenguy> jvai_: the only question that counts is 'Can you do what you need to do?'
[01:17] <K-Rich> jvai, i\m on dapper right now.... getting prepared to go to edgy though
[01:17] <RDUBBALO> i know it was open ended sorry i have a dell 720 and I dont know how to make it print i see it in device manager but it wont print
[01:17] <VeganChick> XubuntuLover, You should try to burn the CD again and try that. Make sure to download the Mac PPC version.
[01:17] <C`> word cup cats
[01:17] <jvai_> riiiight @ xen, i can do it all
[01:17] <Xenguy> jvai_: so no worries, and you have LTS :-)
[01:17] <Xenguy> jvai_: and stability :p
[01:18] <VeganChick> I want to go to Feisty, but I don't want to risk losing my Mac partition...
[01:18] <jvai_> ;)
[01:18] <K-Rich> jrib, thank you.... that worked... thegrade is going now
[01:18] <Alive_Cow_Eater> how is everyone doing tonite
[01:18] <jrib> VeganChick: then back it up.  Feisty is not stable, your computer could explode
[01:18] <XubuntuLover> VeganChick Is alternate Server install always easier / more compatible with weird hardware, despite the longer download / patching later?
[01:18] <jrib> K-Rich: great
[01:18] <gouki> jvai_: I'm currently on Dapper Drake and I'm not thinking of upgrading my systems before the LTS runs out! (=
[01:18] <Alive_Cow_Eater> who wants to help me out?
[01:18] <Alive_Cow_Eater> not eating cows btw

[01:19] <Alive_Cow_Eater> I'm trying to get 5.1 sound to work, I know it works cause on a sound test all 5 have output and I can change the voluem in the mixter PCM and PCM1 (Front) (Rear)
[01:19] <jrib> !printer | RDUBBALO
[01:19] <ubotu> RDUBBALO: Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows

[01:20] <Alive_Cow_Eater> no problems :(
[01:20] <Alive_Cow_Eater> lol
[01:20] <VeganChick> jrib, I would back it up, but I don't have an extra hd right now...I really need to buy one...
[01:21] <gouki> Alive_Cow_Eater: They are 2 different OSs, not meant to be compared, IMO!
[01:21] <Alive_Cow_Eater> I just made a joke no need to hate on windows
[01:21] <ThinkingMan> Hi, I'm working with a fresh install of ubuntu and I can't seem to get any mp3 files to play (either in totem or xmms), how would I check to see if the right codecs are installed?
[01:21] <Alive_Cow_Eater> I agree gouki

[01:21] <dougie> can anyone here help me with pan newsreader?
[01:21] <gouki> Alive_Cow_Eater: (= I don't get that answer everyday!
[01:21] <XubuntuLover> Alive_Cow_Eater don't take it personally, he is a bot
[01:21] <Alive_Cow_Eater> I'm just here trying to get some sound going
[01:21] <shatrat> dougie, Im not an expert, but i use it.  Whats the question !anybody
[01:21] <Alive_Cow_Eater> gouki,  lol :)
[01:21] <bruenig> gouki, right things which serve approximately the same purpose, are never meant to be compared, like when I am looking for a vehicle, I don't compare them to decide
[01:22] <jvai_> i show luv to win xp.. it helped me if seek there was something better to computing for me
[01:22] <Alive_Cow_Eater> hey XubuntuLover
[01:22] <jrib> VeganChick: I wouldn't recommend upgrading to feisty if you have important data without backups.  Wait for Feisty to be released as stable in April.  I would still really recommend backups of some kind for your data, don't wait until you lose important data to decide to start keeping backups, trust me
[01:22] <Alive_Cow_Eater> I love Xfce too XubuntuLover
[01:22] <dougie> shatrat: i can't seem to get it to connect and do a task...i setup all the info and told it to download all new newsgroups and at the bottom it says no connections and tasks 0/1
[01:22] <colbert> jrib: Yup me too, Vista's thirst for resources led me to realize the potential of linux =)
[01:23] <shatrat> dougie, there is an offline mode on it.
[01:23] <shatrat> dougie, you might need to toggle to online mode somewhere
[01:23] <Alive_Cow_Eater> anyone ever have success setting up 5.1 sound?
[01:23] <VeganChick> Jrib, I know. I really really need to buy an external hd. Luckily there's not a whole lot that I would die without or can't replace.
[01:23] <dougie> shatrat: i did that...it says pan is online when i go to the task thing
[01:23] <VeganChick> But yes, I'm just pining for Feisty. I'm waiting until April for the version that won't make my pretty MacBook explode.
[01:23] <XubuntuLover> Alive_Cow_Eater: I recently replaced a Dell G1's slow Win98 with Xfce, and it works great by comparison. abiword is far superior to word95
[01:24] <RDUBBALO> yeah i got gaim
[01:24] <Alive_Cow_Eater> I'll suck dick for help!
[01:24] <infidel> Alive_Cow_Eater, how come xfce looks like gnome now?
[01:24] <jrib> !language | Alive_Cow_Eater
[01:24] <ubotu> Alive_Cow_Eater: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[01:24] <XubuntuLover> I think that was uncalled for  :(
[01:24] <colbert> !ohmy Alive_Cow_Eater
[01:24] <bruenig> the windows is easier, then that, seems like a troll to me
[01:24] <Alive_Cow_Eater> Sorry I'm very desperate
[01:24] <shatrat> dougie, maybe if you click the "0/1 Tasks" button the tasks  menu will tell you someting useful
[01:24] <jvai_> would it be hard to take my dapper start up & shut down sound with me when i upgrade? i'm not feeling the new sounds
[01:24] <Kronuz> hey, how is the calculator button set in the keyboard?
[01:25] <cheeseboy> can i switch from ubuntu to xubuntu w/o fresh install or a cd?
[01:25] <Alive_Cow_Eater> I tried installing Windows but it said "No gays allowed" so I had to switch to linux
[01:25] <RDUBBALO> xbuntulover i have gaim
[01:25] <bruenig> jvai_, if you can find it, I wouldn't think so
[01:25] <Kronuz> I mean, how is it that the calculator button in the keyboard calls the calculator?
[01:25] <colbert> Alive_Cow_Eater: Not nice !
[01:25] <shatrat> cheeseboy, sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[01:25] <dougie> shatrat: just says the task is queued
[01:25] <jvai_> aaaw, ;(
[01:25] <Alive_Cow_Eater> xfce does kinda look like gnome now
[01:25] <sene23> Phonica: ok I got the driver to work!
[01:25] <K-Rich> cheeseboy, sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[01:25] <XubuntuLover> RDUBBALO I am new, but when I click on your name, a little contextual menu asks if I want to send oyu an im, and it brings up a new window next to my other channels. did you not get a message from me in a new window?
[01:25] <MrRio> jvai_, It's in /usr/share/sounds
[01:25] <Phonica> UberCool, what did u have to do?
[01:25] <sene23> Phonica: for some reason using the nvidia .run file worked for me now!
[01:25] <Alive_Cow_Eater> maybe a fluxubuty will come out
[01:25] <Phonica> cool :)
[01:25] <jrib> Kronuz: have you checked system > preferences > keyboard shortcuts?
[01:25] <sene23> yea! :)
[01:25] <HollywoodCode> how do i put the ubunto machine in the same workgroup as my xp box?
[01:25] <Flannel> !mediakeys | K-Rich
[01:25] <ubotu> K-Rich: Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts (Gnome) or "Input Actions" in KControl (KDE). If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try keytouch - http://keytouch.sourceforge.net
[01:26] <Flannel> Kronuz, that was for you.  Sorry K-Rich
[01:26] <Phonica> when all else fails, try brute force ^_^
[01:26] <cheeseboy> that all?
[01:26] <MrRio> jvai_, Copy it across then fire up the 'Sound preferences' window, you can choose custom sounds here
[01:26] <gouki> Kronuz: You can also have a look at evrouter
[01:26] <Phonica> emerge ftw lol
[01:26] <sene23> Phonica: Indeed....
[01:26] <RDUBBALO> no
[01:26] <VeganChick> Where can I find startup sounds? The default scares me...
[01:26] <Alive_Cow_Eater> I'm starting a channel if anyone needs my help #linuxgays
[01:26] <K-Rich> np flamesrock
[01:26] <sene23> Now problem two is that beryl crashes on load
[01:26] <K-Rich> np Flannel even lol
[01:26] <sene23> making the system hang
[01:26] <shatrat> cheeseboy, after that if you log out you should be able to choose XFCE from the sessions menu
[01:26] <LjL> !offtopic | Alive_Cow_Eater
[01:26] <ubotu> Alive_Cow_Eater: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:26] <jvai_>  /usr/share/sounds i hope the file isnt that big, i'd copy them to a usb key
[01:26] <preaction> VeganChick: /usr/share/sounds probably
[01:26] <Kronuz> jrib, yep, but I didn't see anything for the calculator
[01:26] <bruenig> jvai_, they appear to be in /usr/share/sounds/startup.wav and shutdown.wav
[01:26] <jvai_> aaaah ty
[01:26] <Alive_Cow_Eater> yeah I know, but no one is helping me
[01:26] <cheeseboy> xfce uses less memory ?
[01:27] <Alive_Cow_Eater> so Im going to help others while I wait
[01:27] <XubuntuLover> xcfe uses a lot less memory
[01:27] <Alive_Cow_Eater> gnomse uses the most
[01:27] <MrRio> VeganChick: you can change them thru, System > Preferences > Sound Preferences
[01:27] <cheeseboy> ok cause mythtv is laggin
[01:27] <Alive_Cow_Eater> xfce uses alot less
[01:27] <voidmage> Alive_Cow_Eater: doesn't kde use more?
[01:27] <Alive_Cow_Eater> nope
[01:27] <Alive_Cow_Eater> gnome is #1
[01:27] <shatrat> cheeseboy, have you made sure your video drivers are correct and everything?
[01:27] <cheeseboy> ya
[01:28] <Alive_Cow_Eater> ome to #linuxgays to get cured of your gayness and a free copy of XP for your new lifestyle
[01:28] <cheeseboy> its just wen i have firefox and gaim runnin
[01:28] <cheeseboy> it lags
[01:28] <Hammwell> I installed apache2 and mod_perl using apt-get packages, but there seems to be missing the libapreq perl modules ... not sure the right way to get those. anyone know?
[01:28] <bernie__> hey, i just tried to do a sudo apt-get upgrade and all i get is "Segmentation fault (core dumped)"
[01:28] <jvai_> bruenig would it be as easy as deleting edgy's sound .wavs, then droppin in dapper's?
[01:28] <XubuntuLover> xcfe has some limitations. If you need a desktop, Xcfe is wonderful. If you live on your desktop and Beryl is your best friend and your greatest joy in life... likely Xcfe will be... disappointing
[01:28] <bruenig> jvai_, yeah
[01:28] <voidmage> heh, try fluxbox
[01:28] <voidmage> :P
[01:28] <preaction> bernie__: that's not good. what did you do?
[01:28] <jvai_> great..
[01:28] <bruenig> I just turn those off as soon as possible
[01:28] <dougie> shatrat: ok there it goes...i closed it and reopened it and it started working
[01:29] <shatrat> dougie, jiggle the handle
[01:29] <bruenig> xfce + beryl

[01:30] <cheeseboy> not plannin on usin it
[01:30] <RDUBBALO> xubuntulover I dont know how to get ahold of you
[01:30] <XubuntuLover> RDUBBALO can you right click on my name in a way that brings up any kind of contextual menu?
[01:31] <ThinkingMan> gotta love that bot
[01:31] <LjL> bernie__, do you have automatix installed, and/or do you have the edgy-proposed repository enabled? (in both cases, i'm afraid the outcome will be "reinstall" anyway)
[01:31] <RDUBBALO> yeah
[01:31] <ThinkingMan> OK, another quicky, what's the quickest way to mount a windows share in ubuntu

[01:31] <VeganChick> oops
[01:31] <voidmage> !xfce
[01:31] <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

[01:31] <RDUBBALO> n=teacher@199.80.154.68
[01:32] <dougie> shatrat: do you know if pan will use .nzb files?
[01:32] <XubuntuLover> RDUBBALO does that not work? Sorry, This is my first day with IRC
[01:32] <ThinkingMan> preaction: am I missing something really obvious here?
[01:32] <preaction> ThinkingMan: can you access the share through nautilus?
[01:32] <RDUBBALO> yeah it make a seperate channel
[01:32] <RDUBBALO> you got gaim
[01:33] <XubuntuLover> RDUBBALOwould a firewall do anything?
[01:33] <LjL> ThinkingMan: yeah, use forward slashes, not backslashes
[01:33] <RDUBBALO> i dont know
[01:33] <RDUBBALO> maybe the router
[01:33] <ThinkingMan> preaction: yeah no problem
[01:33] <jvai_> ok back
[01:33] <XubuntuLover> RDUBBALO and I am assuming you have send messages that direction? (channel)
[01:33] <ThinkingMan> places->connect to server brings it up no prob, but it's got a crazy path so I can't do anything with it from terminal
[01:33] <aussieaubs> hi there - can anyone point me to a good ubuntu alternative for windows media centre with hardware compatibility listing?
[01:34] <Alonea> ok. what packages do I need to install so I have mp3/mpeg/etc support in firefox. Need to hear bgsound. Got extension so it reads it but firefox says missing plugin for mpeg

[01:34] <HollywoodCode> can someone tell me how to share a folder so i can transfer files back and forth from my linux box to my xp machine? please help
[01:34] <Thuryn> good
[01:34] <LjL> aussieaubs: what *is* windows media centre?
[01:34] <aussieaubs> LjL - heheheee
[01:34] <kupesoft> Kyral: I beleive dhcpcd's name was changed to dhclient to prevent the server (dhcpd) from being mixed up with the client (dhcpcd).
[01:34] <LjL> aussieaubs, i'm serious. i think i have a vague idea what it is, but i'm not really sure.
[01:34] <aussieaubs> ubuntu media centre - does it exist?
[01:35] <Kyral> aussieaubs: Its called Xine :P
[01:35] <Kronuz> what other program similar to rythmbox is out there?
[01:35] <Kyral> (Or MPlayer)
[01:35] <aussieaubs> thanks Kryal :)
[01:35] <LjL> !players > Kronuz    (Kronuz, see the private message from Ubotu)
[01:35] <ThinkingMan> preaction: does browsing the share like that add a mountpoint somewhere that I'm missing?
[01:35] <Kyral> Kronuz: Banshee, AmaroK, XMMS, Audacious, mpg321, take your pick
[01:35] <XubuntuLover> How does onesend a private message?
[01:36] <LjL> XubuntuLover: /msg nickname message      or /query nickname to open a window to talk
[01:36] <ThinkingMan> XubuntuLover:  /msg
[01:36] <LjL> XubuntuLover: you need to be a registered and identified user to do that by default, though
[01:36] <preaction> ThinkingMan: did you see what LjL said above?
[01:36] <XubuntuLover> bump can someone tell me how to share a folder so i can transfer files back and forth from my linux box to my xp machine? please help
[01:36] <LjL> !register > XubuntuLover    (XubuntuLover, see the private message from Ubotu)
[01:36] <Alonea> XubuntuLover: or just click on a persons name.
[01:36] <ThinkingMan> preaction: now I did
[01:37] <preaction> XubuntuLover: is it the same machine?
[01:37] <Thiesen> Getting fglrx (OpenGL) to work on Asus AX1650Pro? How to do that? I have installed fglrx and it's working except for the opengl part...
[01:37] <XubuntuLover> any reason why that would fail?
[01:37] <Alonea> XubuntuLover: or right click and do it that way. depends on what program you are using. will probably need to be registered though
[01:37] <jvai_> lol.. i made my own *media centre* two folders, 1 muzic, 1 movie, use totem xine w/ all the illegal codecs, & rythymnbox
[01:37] <Kronuz> Kyral, have you used Banshee?
[01:37] <ThinkingMan> wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on //server/share ..?
[01:37] <Kyral> Kronuz: Nope I use AmaroK :P
[01:37] <reap`laptabulous> whats the cmd to mound a cdrom drive/
[01:37] <reap`laptabulous> mount ?
[01:38] <voidmage> mount /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom
[01:38] <ThinkingMan> using sudo mount -t smbfs //server/share /mountpoint
[01:38] <VeganChick> is Automatix really that great?
[01:38] <reap`laptabulous> kk
[01:38] <Kronuz> because Rithmbox is somehow limited
[01:38] <LjL> !automatix | VeganChick, not at all
[01:38] <ubotu> VeganChick, not at all: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[01:38] <XubuntuLover> (regarding file transfers) I have several machines on the same local network, and want to easily move files between them. What is the simple way I know I am over looking?
[01:38] <preaction> ThinkingMan: you need more options. like the username and password to use
[01:38] <test0036> XubuntuLover: openssh
[01:38] <ThinkingMan> back to man mount we go (as much as I hate typing that command)
[01:38] <VeganChick> Thanks LjL, thought I read something like that somewhere...
[01:38] <Thiesen> Getting fglrx (OpenGL) to work on Asus AX1650Pro? How to do that? I have installed fglrx and it's working except for the opengl part...
[01:39] <RDUBBALO> how can I untar a downloaded file
[01:39] <LjL> !nfs | XubuntuLover

[01:40] <RDUBBALO> yeah
[01:40] <Alonea> also, when I try to load amarok, it says updating database, then goes off without loading the program.
[01:40] <VeganChick> Is there a way to share files between Ubuntu and an OSX partition?
[01:40] <LjL> aussieaubs: yes, i was thinking that mythtv could be similar to windows media center, but again, i don't know precisely what the latter is. see this anyway
[01:40] <LjL> !mythtv > aussieaubs    (aussieaubs, see the private message from Ubotu)

[01:43] <jvai_> wow... the dell 720. must be fresh off asembly line...
[01:43] <reap`laptabulous> i need to get an nvidia installer from my cdrom to my hd where i can run it
[01:43] <Eifersucht> ok so you are in a terminal
[01:44] <reap`laptabulous> ya
[01:44] <FreeKFC_Guy> whats the difference or advantage to upgrade from 6.06 to 6.10
[01:44] <wheels3572> jrib, yes since i cant copy and paste from terminal :(
[01:44] <RDUBBALO> nah this things is kinda old
[01:44] <Eifersucht> ok know how to get to the cd to list the files ?
[01:44] <preaction> reap`laptabulous: as i said above, the 'cp' command. and you can run it from your CD probably
[01:44] <reap`laptabulous> k
[01:44] <yurimxpxman> FreeKFC_Guy: Firefox 2, for one (unless you've already done that manually). It's like updating all your packages at once.
[01:44] <jrib> wheels3572: why can't you copy and paste from the terminal?  Have you tried hilighting the selection with your mouse and then using middle-click to paste in the form?
[01:44] <reap`laptabulous> how would i nav to the cd...or run it from there
[01:44] <RDUBBALO> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrintersDell
[01:44] <reap`laptabulous> i am not used to doing things on a command line
[01:44] <RDUBBALO> i see it here
[01:44] <FreeKFC_Guy> i got swiftfox which is 2.0
[01:45] <preaction> reap`laptabulous: this is not the forum for these kinds of problems... why are you doing it in a terminal anyway?
[01:45] <ThinkingMan> preaction: nope, and that looks like it would probably be the issue, I just switched to a new laptop and it's only my second go-round with ubuntu, so things I'm used to aren't there any more...and I'm an idiot and make a lot of assumptions, which doesn't help
[01:45] <nu-> kubuntu is just like ubuntu but with kde right? so ubuntu 6.10, kubuntu is up with ubuntu too?
[01:45] <ThinkingMan> yep...works fine now
[01:45] <preaction> nu-: for the most part, correct
[01:45] <Eifersucht> reap`laptabulous,  try         cd      /media/cdrom    then     ls to list the files
[01:45] <reap`laptabulous> cuase gnome doesnt work
[01:45] <wheels3572> jrib, nope never thought of middle click and everytime i goto go click something  after it's highlighted it slides off the highlight
[01:45] <ThinkingMan> preaction: thanks for being patient with me ;)
[01:45] <ThinkingMan> you need some photo work done, you let me know
[01:45] <reap`laptabulous> graphical mess....
[01:45] <preaction> !idw | reap`laptabulous
[01:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about idw - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:46] <nu-> preaction: thanks.
[01:46] <jrib> wheels3572: and how about the usual way?  select with mouse, right click > copy, right click > paste in the form
[01:46] <preaction> reap`laptabulous: doesn't work is vague and completely useless. what do you mean?
[01:46] <Eifersucht> reap`laptabulous,  then      cp     thefileyouwant  /directoryyou are copying to
[01:46] <jvai_> rdub.. looksee - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=215657&page=3

[01:46] <FreeKFC_Guy> i have 32mb video card - will beryl work on this or no chance
[01:46] <reap`laptabulous> the displayed images are torn and distorted

[01:47] <hsimah> hi all
[01:47] <Eifersucht> hey hsimah
[01:47] <Hammwell> how do i install a .deb file?
[01:47] <hsimah> i was wondering if i could get a little help with my new ubuntu install
[01:47] <wheels3572> jrib, oh wait I did something different hmmmmm ok my fault what's the difference between xterm and regular terminal mode?
[01:47] <jrib> !deb | Hammwell
[01:47] <ubotu> Hammwell: deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click on them (Ubuntu) or right-click and select Kubuntu Package Menu->install (Kubuntu)
[01:47] <BHSPitMonkey> anyone know of an IIS equivalent in ubuntu?  I need to share my internet connection with another computer, over a crossover cable
[01:47] <voidmage> what's gnome's equivalent to ~/.kde/Autostart?
[01:47] <Hammwell> jrib .. how about via ssh?
[01:47] <jrib> Hammwell: sudo dpkg -i
[01:48] <Hammwell> thkx!
[01:48] <Eifersucht> what you need hsimah  ?
[01:48] <arfy> hi all. I have a laptop with a sound blaster audigy and an internal sound card. I've installed the latest alsa drivers and configured them, and the audigy is the default ccard. However, when i reboot, it switches back to the internal laptop card. Any way to fix this?
[01:48] <jrib> wheels3572: what's the context?  Where do you see those "modes"?
[01:48] <wheels3572> well terminal is under applications system and then terminal
[01:48] <voidmage> what's gnome's equivalent to ~/.kde/Autostart?
[01:49] <wheels3572> I made a shortcut for xterm
[01:49] <wheels3572> i made the command xterm
[01:49] <jrib> wheels3572: oh, the regular one is gnome-terminal
[01:49] <wheels3572> and then typed CTRL+t for xterm
[01:49] <hsimah> well, i am a die hard slackware user, but for my laptop it is just too much effort to get set up
[01:49] <wheels3572> ok
[01:49] <hsimah> so i installed ubuntu, but i messed up my users
[01:49] <kupesoft> hsimah: Your users?
[01:49] <hsimah> and i wondered if there was a default root password
[01:50] <Eifersucht> no
[01:50] <kupesoft> hsimah: There's no root password at all by default, "sudo passwd root" should do the trick,
[01:50] <hsimah> well, i kept my /home/hamish directory and now i want to remove it to start over
[01:50] <wheels3572> jrib, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10548/
[01:50] <bimberi> !startup | voidmage
[01:50] <ScottLij> default root password? ha
[01:50] <ubotu> voidmage: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup
[01:50] <Eifersucht> go to system>users and groups then set a PW
[01:50] <Eifersucht> hsimah,
[01:50] <Flannel> kupesoft, hsimah, there's absolutely no reason to set a root password.
[01:50] <Flannel> Eifersucht, you too.
[01:50] <enderxim> hsimah: there is no default root pass, ubuntu doesn't require a root acct.
[01:50] <kupesoft> Flannel: There's plenty of reason, to have a root account.
[01:50] <Flannel> hsimah: At GRUB, choose the "Recovery Mode", to get a root shell.
[01:50] <hsimah> ok
[01:50] <hsimah> ok
[01:50] <Flannel> kupesoft: no, there isn't.
[01:51] <hsimah> and from there i can deluser hamish ?
[01:51] <Flannel> hsimah: yep
[01:51] <hsimah> cause i cant do it now, due to hamish being the only account, and me being logged in
[01:51] <hsimah> ok cool
[01:51] <kupesoft> Flannel: Having a root account is a reason. Therefore, there is a reason.
[01:51] <enderxim> hsimah: don't enable the root acct, it's easier to use sudo <cmd> then it will ask for your pass, enter it. sudo runs commands as root.
[01:51] <enderxim> hsimah: more secure as well.
[01:51] <hsimah> yeah i know about sudo
[01:51] <hsimah> but, i cant delete the account i am using
[01:52] <AlCantara> hello. I created ntfs-partition, mount it via fstab and want to indentify ist via its uuid. but it has none. anybody an idea how to create such on ntfs?
[01:52] <enderxim> hsimah: are you on the list of sudo users?
[01:52] <hsimah> yes
[01:52] <Flannel> kupesoft: Don't recommend in #ubuntu that people set a root password, it only creates headaches later on.  For the user, and support.
[01:52] <arfy> if he;s jsut done a fresh install he should be on the sudo list
[01:52] <kupesoft> Flannel: Fair enough.
[01:52] <enderxim> hsimah: oh i see, i misunderstood. you're trying to delete the acct you are presently using?
[01:52] <hsimah> yep
[01:53] <hsimah> im booting into recovery mode right now
[01:53] <rellik> I am trying to install a package, and it has unmet dependencies, but I'm not sure why..  it says "Depends: php5-common (= 5.1.6-1ubuntu2.3) but 5.1.6-1ubuntu2.1 is to be installed" ...  aren't those two versions both 5.1.6-1?  what does the ubuntu2.3 part mean?
[01:53] <enderxim> hsimah: probably just easier to make the new acct you'll be using, add it to the sudo user list, and then delete it from that acct. i agree with Flannel, don't enable your root acct
[01:53] <adrenalin1983> I need help with glx, I have a redeon mobility 7500 video card, i had glx working yesterday for a bit, but as soon as I rebooted It stopped working, can someone tell me how to get it working and how to make it work after reboot?
[01:53] <hsimah> ill try this recovery mode thing now since its booting already, but ok. i wont enable root
[01:54] <hsimah> though on slack, i do love my root account ;)
[01:54] <anthony_> i hate how everyone is so afraid of root in ubuntu.. it has been in *nix for years and people have managed
[01:54] <voidmage> bimberi: any way to do this through the filesystem, for example symlink whatever directory the startup stuff is in to ~/.kde/Autostart?
[01:54] <voidmage> Or does gnome do it in a completely different way?
[01:54] <enderxim> hsimah: it's an adjustment for all of us. ;-)
[01:54] <wheels3572> can anyone help me with this error please http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10548/
[01:54] <enderxim> hsimah: you'll come to appreciate it.
[01:54] <Winball> Can't get fullscreen in vlc to work with Ubuntu (64bit). Any ideas?
[01:55] <arfy> anyway, I modified /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base, adding optionns snd-emu10k1 index=0 to the file, but when rebooting, it changes back to the internal card. any suggestions?
[01:55] <kupesoft> hsimah: If you're set on not creating a root password, "sudo -i" will give you a root shell,
[01:55] <adrenalin1983> can anyone help me with glx?
[01:56] <Luke> how do I mount devices graphically? I dont want my dad to have to use fstab
[01:56] <nand> simple question : is it possible to grep the worldwide dns? (example : grep 'c.....' dns)
[01:57] <Flannel> Luke: what sort of devices?
[01:57] <tom47> !X
[01:57] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[01:57] <Luke> Flannel: harddrive
[01:57] <Flannel> Luke: an external harddrive?
[01:57] <bruenig> Luke, you are going to need root to do that
[01:58] <Luke> bruenig: thats fine. how do I do it graphically
[01:58] <rellik> any ideas on the dependency issue?  why would I get this error: "Depends: php5-common (= 5.1.6-1ubuntu2.3) but 5.1.6-1ubuntu2.1 is to be installed" ...  aren't those two versions both 5.1.6-1?  what does the ubuntu2.3 part mean?
[01:58] <AlCantara> mount devices graphically: add it to fstab, and create links to mountpoints on desktop. some kind of automount does the rest
[01:58] <Luke> Flannel: no - ide
[01:58] <bruenig> Luke, that is the point
[01:58] <Flannel> Luke: er, why does he have to do it?  Shouldn't it already be done?
[01:58] <Luke> Flannel: no for some reason it wasnt
[01:59] <Luke> Flannel: oh i added it to fstab by hand and it worked
[01:59] <Xiphias> type 'mount' in a terminal and see what's mounted
[01:59] <Luke> its mounted now through fstab
[01:59] <bruenig> Luke, so just have it mount at boot
[01:59] <Luke> but how would my dad know how to do that?
[01:59] <Luke> ok i'm not talking to anyone but flannel
[01:59] <Flannel> rellik: the ubuntu2.1 is the ubuntu version, so one is 2.1 the other is 2.3, thus, different.  But, 2.3 is in the repositories, so you should get that.
[02:00] <bruenig> Luke, good choice
[02:00] <Flannel> Luke: if it's in the fstab, it'll be mounted at boot.  Unless I'm missing something.
[02:00] <bruenig> unless it doesn't have the right options
[02:00] <nu-> so let me confirm this: if i use kubuntu, it'll be just like ubuntu, but with kde instead of gnome
[02:00] <voidmage> yeah
[02:00] <RDUBBALO> great i got it working
[02:00] <Xiphias> Yep
[02:00] <Luke> Flannel: no your correct- but there used to be a gnome disk mounter that edited fstab in an easy format
[02:00] <bruenig> nu-, essentially yes, you will have access to the same repositories
[02:00] <nu-> sweet
[02:00] <hsimah> thanks guys
[02:00] <hsimah> all sweet now :)
[02:00] <RDUBBALO> had to go to that cups site and select it there
[02:00] <nu-> thanks bruenig
[02:01] <Goldfisch> Whenever I pop in a flash drive, ubuntu auto mounts it for me. It also creates an icon on my desktop, and right click offers eject/unmount option.
[02:01] <Luke> Flannel: i had to add this harddrive to fstab by hand and my dad wants to know if there was a way he could do it
[02:01] <nu-> i wonder when they'll fix the 8800's problem
[02:01] <nu-> i can't really run ubuntu with my 8800gtx
[02:01] <Xiphias> nu-: why not?
[02:01] <rellik> Flannel, so I need to upgrade my version of ubuntu to 2.3?  or just get that version of the php package?  I ran apt-get update before I tried this, so maybe I just need more repos?
[02:01] <nu-> no drivers
[02:01] <reap`laptabulous> what problem do you have with your 8800?
[02:01] <nu-> the NV drivers doesnt support 8800
[02:01] <reap`laptabulous> there are drivers
[02:01] <iamelite> Hi everyone, fast question. I need to install NDISwrapper for my Ubuntu shell, But i do not have a network connection on that computer to do the apt-get for it. Could you make a suggestion? thanks
[02:01] <nu-> but vesa does, but glitchy
[02:02] <reap`laptabulous> there are new ones released the 7th
[02:02] <Xiphias> There are open source drivers for it available
[02:02] <AlCantara> ubuntu runs fine on an gf2-mx and a voodoo3 :)  and its much cheaper  ;)
[02:02] <nu-> id on't know man. i tried yesterday, lots of issues
[02:02] <FreeKFC_Guy> use the cd u installed ubuntu from
[02:02] <Absolute0> what pkg do i need for nvidia drivers?
[02:02] <FreeKFC_Guy> ubuntu cd has ndiswrapper
[02:02] <Goldfisch> iamelite: You can go to the packages website (from another machine), and download the deb package onto something a flash drive. Plug it in, and do sudo dpkg -i your_deb_package.deb.
[02:02] <shatrat> Absolute0, nvidia-glx and also recofigure your xorg.conf
[02:02] <anthony_> !nvidia Absolute0
[02:02] <Flannel> rellik: if you don't have the security repositories, it won't be there, I guess.  But, you should have that repository
[02:03] <Poul^Laptop> Any idea about when automatrix will come out for fiesty
[02:03] <mojo> does ndiswrapper work well for sis chipset wireless g usb dongles?
[02:03] <Goldfisch> !tell Absolute0 about restricted
[02:03] <anthony_> !nvidia ! Absolute0
[02:03] <Flannel> iamelite: ndiswrapper is on the ubuntu CD
[02:03] <jrib> wheels3572: don't use automatix is the easy solution
[02:03] <anthony_> bah
[02:03] <iamelite> Flannel: Thank you sir, you are one sexy beast.
[02:03] <iamelite> Untill next time.
[02:03] <rellik> Flannel, alright I'll search google for the security repos
[02:03] <Flannel> iamelite: you'll need to use "apt-cdrom add" then you can install it via package managemen
[02:03] <AlCantara> nvidia-drivers: try the envy-script!! it installs current nvidia and ati-drivers automatically
[02:03] <Flannel> rellik: I imagine you already have them.  Check your sources.list
[02:04] <reap`laptabulous> is envy installed on the PC when you install ubuntu?
[02:04] <Goldfisch> Installing the restricted modules package also installs nvidia graphics support automatically. :)
[02:04] <wheels3572> jrib, damn got busted lol.  Yeah I needed to to get adobe acrobat reader
[02:04] <reap`laptabulous> or do you have to dl it?
[02:04] <Luke> Flannel: do you know what I'm talking about? a graphical fstab interface?
[02:04] <Poul^Laptop> Is there any kind of ventrilo out for ubuntu/linus
[02:04] <Poul^Laptop> x
[02:04] <AlCantara> think envy is available via repository
[02:04] <mojo> reap`laptabulous: you have to download it
[02:04] <exs> when did ubuntu make the homepage changes?.. I've only just noticed it.
[02:05] <reap`laptabulous> !envy

[02:06] <docd> Poul^Laptop: try teamspeak2
[02:06] <Luke> Flannel: yoru right - but what if he gets a new hdd?
[02:06] <rellik> Flannel, I have edgy-sec main restricted multi and uni...  so shouldn't I not get the unmet dep?
[02:06] <Flannel> Luke: oh, for him to.  Um, dapper had a "disks" thing, in administration,
[02:06] <Luke> Flannel: yea but edgy doesnt have that?
[02:06] <MikeC2> How do I go about optimizing my install, like getting a kernel for the type of processor I use and stuff?
[02:06] <Flannel> rellik: right.  Do a 'sudo apt-get update' first
[02:06] <bruenig> !kernel | MikeC2
[02:06] <ubotu> MikeC2: 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
[02:06] <Flannel> Luke: I have no idea.  I don't have X, let alone edgy.
[02:06] <Luke> Flannel: ha ok thanks
[02:06] <patrialt> can someone tell me why i cant see my / directory folders?
[02:06] <Flannel> MikeC2: what version of ubuntu are you on?  Dapper or Edgy?
[02:07] <MikeC2> Edgy
[02:07] <jrib> patrialt: where can't you see them?
[02:07] <bruenig> patrialt, ls / gives you what
[02:07] <Flannel> MikeC2: then the generic kernel is what you want
[02:07] <Math^> patrialt: ls -al
[02:07] <rellik> Flannel, yeah, I did that..  sitll unmet :(
[02:07] <MikeC2> I have a AMD dualcore, so wouldnt I want k7?
[02:07] <Flannel> rellik: install php5-common first, then do the other one
[02:07] <Flannel> MikeC2: there is no k7 kernel for edgy
[02:07] <patrialt> When im browsing my directories with nautilus the only folder i can see are home, media, desktop, and storage partitions
[02:08] <thinman1189> sorry for the newb question but I can't seem to be able to play music off of a cd :s
[02:08] <MikeC2> oh :| how about a p3 kernel, I have a mini-system I'm going to give away and I'm trying to get all I can out of it.
[02:08] <bruenig> patrialt, you can get to /, just keep hitting the tab looking things at the top until you get all the way to the left
[02:08] <Goldfisch> patrialt: You don't see "File System"?
[02:08] <Flannel> MikeC2: generic is the one for that too
[02:08] <rellik> Flannel, nope..  php5-common gives the same ubuntu2.1/2.3 error
[02:08] <MikeC2> alright then, cool
[02:08] <patrialt> goldfisch i see "File System" i click it, and it only shows me "home" and "media"
[02:09] <Goldfisch> patrialt: Double click it.
[02:09] <wendell> My disk has been partitioning for over 1:30 hours and i'm worried it's frozen or something... should i quit or wait?
[02:09] <wendell> My hard drive activity light isn't blinking
[02:09] <patrialt> i meant i double click it
[02:09] <Flannel> rellik: what does apt-cache show php5-common give? under "Version" (half way down)
[02:09] <rellik> Flannel, Version: 5.1.6-1ubuntu2
[02:09] <bruenig> patrialt, nautilus / in the terminal
[02:09] <Hammwell> I think I need libapreq2-perl for edgy. can someone help me find it?
[02:09] <phxheat> hi, im trying to apt-get install phpmyadmin on ubuntu server, but its not finding the packages, despite the fact that the universe packages are available in apt... im too much of a noob to do this manually (all from the command line), so how can i still install it with apt?
[02:10] <patrialt> bruenig tried it, still cant see any of my system folders
[02:10] <Joshooa> What do I do to get Ubuntu to remember my ESSID and Key when I turn off my computer. It's in the network settings things, and it's in /etc/network/interfaces, but it doesn't work when I get on the computer, I have to manually enter it and then do dhclient
[02:10] <bruenig> patrialt, what does nautilus / open to
[02:10] <bimberi> voidmage: (sorry I stepped away) that interface creates a .desktop file in ~/.config/autostart
[02:10] <Goldfisch> phxheat: You can use synaptic to update your repository list. You probably need to get universe added to your list of repositories.
[02:10] <Hammwell> like can i just use the one i found here on debian search? http://packages.debian.org/ ?
[02:11] <patrialt> bruenig it opens to my "Filesystem" directory
[02:11] <bruenig> Hammwell, not the greatest idea
[02:11] <mojo> Hammwell: it's alwasy better to use pkgs from the repositories if you can
[02:11] <patrialt> but the only folders displayed there are "home" and "media"
[02:11] <wendell> heeelp!!
[02:11] <docd> Joshooa: easiest way would be a script, imho.
[02:11] <bruenig> patrialt, but you can navigate in the terminal right?
[02:11] <patrialt> yes
[02:11] <mojo> wendell: well if you touch it, can you feel it seeking?
[02:12] <wendell> no
[02:12] <bruenig> patrialt, try removing the nautilus configuration directory in ~
[02:12] <patrialt> and if i enter a directory such as /usr in the nautilus address bar, im still allowed access to the folders
[02:12] <mojo> wendell: what kind of drive is it?
[02:12] <Goldfisch> patrialt: What does "ls /bin" show?
[02:12] <jrib> patrialt: does /.hidden exist? what are its contents?
[02:12] <mojo> (just curious)
[02:12] <wendell> i dunno
[02:13] <patrialt> jrib it doesn't appear to exist
[02:13] <jrib> patrialt: it either does or doesn't,  cat /.hidden
[02:13] <mojo> wendell: this is in the ubuntu install that you get stuck on partitioning?
[02:13] <wendell> i'm in the ubuntu installer
[02:13] <Hammwell> ok i can't find a package for this. i need the mod_perl perl modules like APR/Request/Apache2.pm.
[02:13] <VeganChick> The character palette isn't working...
[02:13] <Flannel> rellik: that doesn't make any sense.  You updated your cache, right?  And didn't get any errors?
[02:13] <voidmage> in KDE i can press alt+f2 to open a window to run something
[02:13] <voidmage> what's GNOME's equivalent?
[02:13] <crdlb> voidmage, same
[02:14] <voidmage> crdlb: isn't working
[02:14] <wendell> :)
[02:14] <Joshooa> docd: How do do those, and can they do sudo commands?
[02:14] <patrialt> jrib sorry, typo'd it
[02:14] <crdlb> voidmage, are you using the normal gnome window manager (metacity)?
[02:14] <russell190> hello every1.] 
[02:14] <wendell> i don't want to quit it and mess up the hard drive
[02:14] <mojo> wendell: maybe you should kill it and try to come up in the livecd environment.  if it (ubuntu) is gonna be compatible with your hardware, maybe you can try partitioning and formatting from the live install session to see if it works there
[02:14] <voidmage> i think?
[02:14] <patrialt> goldfisch http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10552/
[02:15] <tom47> wendell what was on the drive before you started?
[02:15] <wendell> windows
[02:15] <voidmage> crdlb: yeah i'm using metacity
[02:15] <wendell> i'm in the live cd install
[02:15] <tom47> wendell did you back up all your data first?
[02:15] <Goldfisch> patrialt: Okay, that appears to be an issue with nautilus, because the file system is definitely there.
[02:15] <wendell> i might kill it *gulp*
[02:15] <jrib> patrialt: so that means it does exist?
[02:15] <mojo> wendell: what options did you choose for partitioning?  is it resizing a windows partition?
[02:15] <rellik> Flannel, yup..  'apt-get update' worked fine..  but still no ubuntu2.3
[02:15] <wendell> well yes but i don't have a windows cd
[02:15] <patrialt> jrib i suppose lol
[02:15] <crdlb> voidmage, check System -> preferences -> keyboard shortcuts
[02:15] <wendell> yes resize partition
[02:16] <patrialt> jrib correction, YES it does :P
[02:16] <mojo> wendell: that can take a long time
[02:16] <Flannel> rellik: no idea.  I've gotta run though.  Someone should be able to help you get that thing installed.
[02:16] <wendell> if i kill it i'll put in a gparted live cd and see what i can do
[02:16] <russell190> People, my friend and i started a new channel, will every1 join #wii-battle ?
[02:16] <wendell> well it's approaching 2 hours
[02:16] <voidmage> crdlb: that's set but for some reason isn't working
[02:16] <jrib> patrialt: what was the output...  this is a feature of nautilus.  It will look at .hidden and hide what is in there.  Try 'sudo mv /.hidden /.hidden.backup' and reload nautilus
[02:16] <wendell> i wish it had a progress bar
[02:16] <rellik> Flannel, thanks I'll keep at it
[02:16] <patrialt> jrib okay, trying now
[02:16] <mojo> wendell: if it is resizing and you kill it, be aware that you may lose that partiton and all the data.  just be forewarned that it is not at all considered a safe thing to do
[02:17] <wendell> well should I wait longer?
[02:17] <Hammwell> hey can i make apt-get install a .deb file with all the dependency wizardshit stuff?
[02:17] <patrialt> jrib, your a lifesaver
[02:17] <wendell> should I even be on gaim while it's partitioning?
[02:17] <Hammwell> b/c this .deb file doesnt seem to be in a repository, or my thing is looking at tthe wrong repository
[02:18] <mojo> wendell: that is up to you and your patience weighted against how much you value the existing data and whether reinstalling it all from scratch is a viable option for you (in case the worst happens)
[02:18] <gnufied> i am trying to compile gnome-2.18 using garnome on dapper
[02:18] <gnufied> and i get error: jni.h no such file or directory, while compiling java bindings for cairo
[02:18] <wendell> but how long should I wait?
[02:18] <gnufied> any udeas why is that? and solution
[02:18] <mojo> wendell: to be honest though, resizing in the first place is always to be considered a risky maneuver and should never be done to a partition with critical data (until you've backed it up)
[02:19] <wendell> i've partitoned this drive before in much less time
[02:19] <mojo> wendell: resized partitions you mean?
[02:19] <wendell> oh well
[02:19] <wendell> yes resive
[02:19] <wendell> resize
[02:19] <mojo> wendell: partitioning can be quite fast.. resizing involves shuffling data
[02:19] <mojo> wendell: then well maybe it is b0rked after all.
[02:19] <voidmage> where does firefox hide its plugin settings?
[02:19] <wendell> yeh it was a resize
[02:20] <wendell> :(
[02:20] <voidmage> such as whether to use totem or something else for playing stuff?
[02:20] <cables> voidmage, I've always wondered that... try #firefox
[02:20] <wendell> maybe i should defragged
[02:20] <voidmage> i can't find it but i know where it should be, weird
[02:20] <johnf> is there a tool that will tell me for all my packages wether they came from main or universe?
[02:20] <mojo> wendell: i mean the resize operation.. it could be that it has been sitting there doing nothing, and your data *could* be just fine.  no guarantees.
[02:20] <cables> voidmage, there's something about plugins in the Downloads settings, but I can't change anything in there...
[02:20] <ian_ox3> hello all, how can i remove something from the applications menu? installed something with wine and deleted it and theres left a menu under the system tools menu..
[02:20] <cables> voidmage, like I said though, try #firefox
[02:20] <jrib> voidmage: uninstall the plugin you don't want, install the plugin you do want
[02:20] <wendell> i think so too
[02:20] <crdlb> voidmage, about:plugins ?
[02:20] <wendell> i'll wait a bit longer and kill it
[02:20] <cables> ian_ox3, right click on menus, select Edit Menus
[02:20] <Ademan> any applications to open *.uha files?
[02:21] <ian_ox3> ahh thx mate
[02:21] <mojo> wendell: well like i said, it is up to you and your patience versus your willingness to deal with outcomes
[02:21] <jrib> ian_ox3: right click on the ubuntu icon, edit menus
[02:21] <jrib> oh too slow!

[02:21] <AlCantara> wanted to give uuid to new ntfs partition (hdg5).  found no documentation.
[02:21] <AlCantara> created ext3, which should automatically create uuid. did not.
[02:21] <AlCantara> tried to set uuid via tune2fs -U. no error, but no uuid.
[02:21] <AlCantara> tried to set partition label via e2label. no error, but no label.
[02:21] <AlCantara> whats wrong?
[02:21] <tominglis> it seems to be detected as a generic usb camera by kopete and camorama, with 360x289 resolution and ~25fps, but there is no image
[02:21] <wendell> yes and my conscious seeing as it ain't my pc

[02:39] <Qlippoth> im a total noob here :D
[02:39] <tom47> Qlippoth you can access the windows partitions from linux
[02:39] <infidel> gavintlgold, you can have it play a sound file
[02:40] <CzarAlex> Qlippoth are you dual booting? or is this a separate box?

[02:51] <mistone> I have a microSD card and when I do fdisk /dev/sda it says unable to read /dev/sda is my card damaged?
[02:51] <emet> you might need to do that Uff1
[02:52] <mon^rch> can someone please help me share files and directories (ftp)
[02:53] <emet> Uff1: it's not as hard as it seems, and infact quite useful knowledge to know how to chroot
[02:53] <emet> let you run sandboxed machine inside another machine
[02:54] <Uff1> I see, thank you emet, I'll look into it and report back if there are any problems. :)

[02:55] <kazuka> oh i am in the mood of buying a new hardware
[02:55] <kazuka> what is a good cpu to buy core2duo or x2?
[02:55] <Alexismoy> Is someone can help me? I'm connected with wireless, and when I ping, I'v got a (DUP!)
[02:55] <Alexismoy> I don't know where it comes from
[02:56] <jimgroggy77> hello

[02:57] <Xenguy> mon^rch: man chmod, and man chown
[02:57] <emet> hmm
[02:57] <jimgroggy77> go to permisions
[02:57] <Xenguy> mon^rch: that's about it
[02:57] <jimgroggy77> set them for what you want
[02:57] <Coffeegrindah> has anyone successfully gotten ubuntu running on a flash drive? I need to figure out how to add a user with out getting .ICEauthority errors
[02:58] <ricky_> can someone tell me how to change the color of the little yellow thing on eterm?
[02:58] <emet> yah mon^rch chmod to make read only
[02:58] <odix> does x11 or the linux kernel recognize files by there headers and not there extensions ?
[02:58] <Xenguy> mon^rch: unless you can do permissions, you can't do what you want -- so you need to learn it sooner or later :-)
[02:58] <mon^rch> is there a way to make symlinks in their dirs pointing to my dirs?
[02:58] <emet> chmod -wx <directory>
[02:58] <emet> make it read only
[02:58] <odix> If i double click an avi, without the avi extension it works, then when i burn it and put it in my dvd player it wont work until rename it .avi in windows ;\
[02:58] <Xenguy> mon^rch: provided permissions were set correctly, symlinks could work I think
[02:59] <Xenguy> mon^rch: that is the 'ln -s' command for that
[02:59] <emet> ln -s <dir> <symlink>
[02:59] <Uff1> When I try reaching wincfg it says the X11 driver is missing. What to do?
[02:59] <dimeotane> how do I in linux find out what my external usb hard drive is:   is there a way to list all the /dev attached ?
[02:59] <Uff1> winecfg*
[02:59] <emet> Uff1: what card you using

[03:00] <emet> you have driver?
[03:00] <emet> VESA?
[03:00] <Uff1> Hmhm, VESA?
[03:00] <emet> did you install any driver for it
[03:00] <chorse> kazuka: personally i'd prefer x2, but that's a question of, well, taste
[03:00] <Uff1> emet, I think so :) Where to check?
[03:00] <emet> Uff1:
[03:00] <Uff1> kazuka: Performance; Core2duo, brand: x2, if you ask me :)
[03:00] <emet> glxinfo | grep direct
[03:01] <emet> what it say

[03:02] <FunnyMan3595> How do I set which vendor OpenGL uses?
[03:02] <Coffeegrindah> passwording Grub via syslinux, anyone know how?
[03:02] <emet> you are probably running in VESA mode
[03:03] <i3ooi3oo_> my drivers are working as nvidia but i can't get the glx working
[03:03] <gaspipe1> hey people...
[03:03] <dimeotane> is there some way to do a check or fix the partition table?  I did a dd to clone a drive but when I mount it I get the message "[17190438.380000]  NTFS-fs warning (device sdb): is_boot_sector_ntfs(): Invalid boot sector checksum.

[03:04] <Uff1> thanks again
[03:04] <emet> video driver install in Edgy is somewhat manual by default this is not true in Fiesty
[03:04] <jimgroggy77> thanks ubotu
[03:04] <emet> np
[03:05] <i3ooi3oo_> when i do a "glxinfo | grep direct" i get a lot of "Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0"."

[03:06] <i3ooi3oo_> *running
[03:06] <emet> hmm
[03:07] <i3ooi3oo_> i get nvidia logo at startup
[03:07] <odix> its funny how linux is mostly open-source, but when you have someone with millions of dollars backing a distro in a really short time it becomes great.
[03:07] <emet> nv oss driver are flacky
[03:07] <emet> you have it installed or the nvidia's driver?
[03:07] <i3ooi3oo_> my drivers sections is set to nvidia
[03:08] <Xenguy> odix: $$$ and timing
[03:08] <Coffeegrindah> odix, sad reflection on the state of the world, but very true.
[03:08] <emet> try this

[03:08] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:08] <Coir> How do I set an application and a couple of commands to initiate at boot?
[03:08] <i3ooi3oo_> from package manager nvidia-legacy and nvidia-glx-legacy
[03:08] <delaney> is anyone aware of a way to set icon themes in openbox
[03:08] <mobiGeek> Coir: what apps and define "initiate"
[03:08] <i3ooi3oo_> then manually changed the xorg.conf
[03:08] <odix> mark shuttlesworth ;] 
[03:08] <jason_> hey, i am a seasoned ubuntu linux user, but i just installed it on my new laptop but i cant change the resolution.  the only option that i have 1024x768.  what can i do to fix this?
[03:08] <hector> hey, someone knows if there is some kind of library similar to Ruby OSA (Mac OS) for linux?
[03:08] <xDCDx> what's the difference between /etc/groups and /etc/groups- ? the latter seems to be unused by adduser and addgroup, and only root readable, what's its use?
[03:09] <odix> he use to work with debian
[03:09] <emet> I3ooI3oo: I don't see that in my package manager
[03:09] <i3ooi3oo_> since it wouldn't do a nvidia-xconfig
[03:09] <Coir> mobiGeek: I want to run 'hamachi start' and 'hamachi login' =P
[03:09] <emet> !nvidia-legacy
[03:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nvidia-legacy - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[03:09] <emet> ok
[03:09] <jason_> Pelo, i am not too good at that, got any tips for me on that
[03:09] <Coffeegrindah> is anyone good with syslinux, I'm trying to figure out how to parse a password though it so that grub can be locked down.
[03:09] <Coffeegrindah> I'm not having much luck though
[03:10] <emet> hmm
[03:10] <nand> simple question : is it possible to grep the worldwide dns? (example : grep 'c.....' dns)
[03:10] <Pelo> jason_, sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf  ,  find the place where you have the screen resolution and add the one you need
[03:10] <emet> I3ooI3oo: your card isn't supported by the driver
[03:10] <mobiGeek> Coir: as in hamachi.cc ?
[03:10] <emet> it says right here in the package desc
[03:10] <Coir> mobiGeek: Indeed.
[03:10] <emet>  and supports the TNT,
[03:10] <emet>  TNT2, TNT Ultra, GeForce, and GeForce2 chipsets
[03:10] <emet> not geforce 3
[03:10] <jason_> Pelo, what depth should i add it at?  the only resolution that i have here is 1280x800.
[03:11] <emet> you want the non-legacy driver
[03:11] <emet> try this one
[03:11] <emet> !nvidia
[03:11] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:11] <Pelo> jason_,  you can add it for all the depts, that's what I did
[03:11] <Uff1> Hey, another noob question: When I try to start synaptix, an error box pops out and says there is an un-interactive synaptic already running
[03:11] <jason_> Pelo, i forgot if i have to delimit the modes by commas and if they all need to be in ""
[03:11] <Uff1> what to do?
[03:11] <emet> Uff1: you can only have one package manager open at once
[03:12] <Pelo> jason_,  hold on
[03:12] <Coffeegrindah> I've got this so far http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10560/ I'm trying to figure out where to put my "password --md5 (hash)"
[03:12] <emet> that include apt-get, aptitude etc
[03:12] <Uff1> emet: I can only see one
[03:12] <jason_> Pelo, should it be like "1280x800","1024x768" or should it be a little different
[03:12] <emet> are you apt-get something?
[03:12] <Uff1> The one i'm trying to start, that is.
[03:12] <Uff1> Nope.
[03:12] <earthen> I'm running 64 bit and grub has lost my option to boot to windows xp  how can i add it back
[03:12] <emet> weird
[03:12] <Uff1> yeah...
[03:12] <emet> try "killall synaptic"
[03:12] <Pelo> jason_,  this is a typical line   :  		Modes		"1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
[03:13] <emet> errrr
[03:13] <Uff1> okok
[03:13] <emet> try "sudo killall synaptic"
[03:13] <jason_> Pelo, thanks
[03:13] <emet> :)
[03:13] <Coir> mobiGeek: Any idea?
[03:13] <fruitbag`> When I try to create a directry via the terminal, I get an 'access denied'.
[03:13] <mobiGeek> Coir: Google is your friend.  I simply googled "hamachi init.d" and got:  http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/VNC_and_Hamachi
[03:13] <Coffeegrindah> has no one online played with syslinux tonight
[03:13] <Uff1> now it worked, thanks! :)
[03:14] <ench> Hello! I was adding the dns servers from opendns, and after reboot of the modem now, I cannot get an ip address... I need to use dhclient eth0 to get an ip address... is there a way that I can make this auto?
[03:14] <emet> Uff1: np
[03:14] <Coir> mobiGeek: Well how was I to know to search for init.d? :-P
[03:14] <fruitbag`> Any thoughts?
[03:14] <mobiGeek> Coir: in particular, look at the "Hamachi Startup Script" section, but if the earlier stuff is new to you then read the whole page over.
[03:14] <Coir> mobiGeek: Regardless, ty.
[03:14] <mobiGeek> Coir: correct, understood.
[03:14] <mobiGeek> Coir: np.  enjoy and good luck!
[03:15] <Uff1> Ok, how to edit xorg.conf?
[03:15] <i3ooi3oo_> emet i know the legacy driver supports my card..https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[03:15] <IndyGunFreak> sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:15] <mon^rch> thenks for the help already, but I still looking to make a symlink work to share a directory via ftp can someone help me a lil more please
[03:15] <Jetfighter> Ok, I have my MP3 Player plugged in, how can I send a song from a CD I have in to it?
[03:15] <i3ooi3oo_> if you click the link for the this is the list of cards mine is listed
[03:15] <mobiGeek> Coir: googling for (hamachi startup)   or   (hamachi "start up") would have found you the above page too
[03:16] <emet> I3ooI3oo: that is weird, cause in "apt-cache show nvidia-glx-legacy" it say it doesnt
[03:16] <Pelo> Jetfighter,  you'll need to rip the cd into a format your mp3 player reads first
[03:16] <Jetfighter> How?
[03:16] <Coir> mobiGeek: I tried boot hamachi at startup and such =/
[03:16] <hector> does Ruby OSA work for Linux
[03:16] <emet> Uff1: you can do gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:16] <emet> errrr
[03:16] <Jetfighter> Coir, Hamachi?
[03:16] <emet> Uff1: you can do sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:17] <emet> and edit it that way
[03:17] <i3ooi3oo_> damn
[03:17] <emet> or use nano, or vim
[03:17] <Pelo> Jetfighter,  use  the cd extractor I think it is called sound juicer  to rip the cd, and ten you will have to convert it to mp3 using another prog, not sure what tho, I've never done that bit
[03:17] <emet> gedit is easier for linux newbs
[03:17] <wyndblade> just saying hi to everyone here, and getting ubuntu running on a presario v6205nr laptop was a snap :P
[03:17] <Jetfighter> I think it's already MP3..
[03:17] <sdrev> I'm trying to install deluge-torrent through Synaptic Package Manager, but when I search for it, deluge doesn't come up. anyone know how i can make it show up?
[03:17] <Uff1> Ok, in my xorg.conf it says Identifier "Generic video card" Driver "nvidia", does this seem right?
[03:17] <i3ooi3oo_> i know that nvidia's legacy driver is 1.9632 and the legacy ubuntu driver is 1.7481
[03:18] <fruitbag`> AGuys...
[03:18] <Pelo> Jetfighter,  it you have a cd full of mp3 just drag and drop the files from one to the other
[03:18] <IndyGunFreak> Uff1: you'll also need to be "ROOT" to edit your xorg.conf, so mak esure you use sudo.
[03:18] <fruitbag`> I get a 'premission denied' when attempting to create a directory.
[03:18] <emet> Uff1: generic video card don't sound right lol
[03:18] <emet> but
[03:18] <emet> the driver is right
[03:18] <fruitbag`> Why so?
[03:18] <Jetfighter> Where are the files to drag and drop?
[03:18] <fruitbag`> Can anyone help?
[03:18] <Uff1> IndyGunFreak: Done. :) thanks
[03:18] <gaspipe1> anyone familiar with mplayer?
[03:18] <emet> fruitbag`: prefix with "sudo"
[03:18] <Uff1> emet: I agree.
[03:19] <dimeotane> how can I fix a broken partition table?
[03:19] <fruitbag`> emet, I'll give it a shot.
[03:19] <Pelo> Jetfighter,  just open up your cd in nautilus and open your mp3 player in nautilus also and drag the songs you want from one to the other
[03:19] <fruitbag`> Ah...
[03:19] <fruitbag`> Thanks, emet .
[03:19] <emet> np
[03:19] <Uff1> My Geforce 6100 shouldn't need "Legacy", right?

[03:20] <VeganChic1> I'm trying to compile the murine engine and configurator and I don't know how.
[03:20] <emet> Isn't there some automated installer for Nvidia drivers
[03:20] <emet> I forgot
[03:20] <megafauna> Hi, firefox froze and won't reopen. How do I killall in the terminal?
[03:20] <Pollywog> murine engine? a vegan playing with mice?
[03:20] <Uff1> So, should I manually edit xorg.conf or something, because generic video card sounds stupid. :P
[03:21] <emet> !easyubuntu I think works
[03:21] <bruenig> megafauna, killall firefox-bin
[03:21] <gaspipe1> I am trying to open an .avi file and i get the message "Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo_) device

[03:21] <emet> Uff1: if you want, but xorg.conf is tricky
[03:21] <earthen> if windows were on my sesond sata drive would that make it on "hd1,0" as far as grub was concerned
[03:21] <emet> just remember when you editing configuration files like that there is always a risk
[03:21] <VeganChic1> It's a theme generator.
[03:21] <Uff1> I'll try easyubuntu! thanks :)
[03:21] <Pollywog> oic

[03:21] <ericmoritz\0> Hi,  I had this problem since I upgraded to Edgy, my master volume control doesn't change the headphone volume, anyone seen this?
[03:22] <emet> it's worth to take some risks though especially if you wanna learn linxu

[03:22] <IndyGunFreak> Uff1: why would  youd o that
[03:22] <sdrev> bruenig, yes, i have that enabled

[03:23] <sdrev> bruenig, it doesn't return anything, just goes back to the prompt

[03:24] <Uff1> IndyGunFreak: I see....will check it out though. :)
[03:24] <flake> i'm playing around with irrlicht and gcc - slows me down a little having to switch from gedit to a terminal to do a make
[03:24] <bruenig> Jetfighter, use soundconverter
[03:24] <fruitbag`> Hey
[03:24] <emet> IndyGunFreak: yeah but it allows newbs to never see the console if they don't want :o
[03:24] <fruitbag`> navid@ubuntu:~$ sudo cat /cdrom/q101_int.1 /mnt/cdrom/q101_int.2 > /usr/local/games/quake/resource.1
[03:24] <fruitbag`> bash: /usr/local/games/quake/resource.1: Permission denied
[03:24] <emet> or edit configuration file
[03:24] <fruitbag`> Why is that so?
[03:24] <fruitbag`> ;\
[03:24] <bruenig> emet, no it doesn't, you have to install easyubuntu in the terminal
[03:24] <Jetfighter> It's an ogg right now? Not to mention it's off the wall..It's Smack That by Akon, it says "I can't wait till Christmas" by someone
[03:24] <Jetfighter>  :(
[03:24] <fruitbag`> Ah!
[03:25] <emet> bruenig: true nm then
[03:25] <emet> lol
[03:25] <IndyGunFreak> emet: way way better to learn it though.., thats why easyubuntu/automatix get dogged so much i think... i have a hard time believing all the "broken systems" rumors.
[03:25] <emet> but it's copy and paste
[03:25] <tom47> emet http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[03:25] <jjcoolyo> any one know how to make maple story work under ubuntu?
[03:25] <Coffeegrindah> jetfighter: are you using a burned CD or a mix?
[03:25] <Jetfighter> I burned it with my old OS.
[03:25] <IndyGunFreak> fun
[03:25] <sdrev> bruenig, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10561/
[03:25] <fruitbag`> Ah...
[03:25] <fruitbag`> I think I know why.
[03:25] <Coffeegrindah> jetfighter: it's because CCDDB doesn't have a listing and is going with the closest match, you can edit them before ripping.
[03:25] <bruenig> IndyGunFreak, even beyond the broken system (although I did have it happen to me), the problems are impossible to track. If someone says I did such in such in automatix and now such and such won't work, there is nothing we can do but if they say they did this tutorial or this command, we can look at it
[03:25] <emet> IndyGunFreak: yeah I used to use easybuntu but now I do everything manually
[03:26] <Pelo> Jetfighter,  what file format does your mp3 player handle ?
[03:26] <fruitbag`> Ah...
[03:26] <fruitbag`> I have an idea.
[03:26] <ThePlaneskeeper> Guys: i have to say- i hate windows and i like open source, but it must be said- there needs to be a univeral installer system on linux- this whole terminal crap is really lame.
[03:26] <Jetfighter> Pelo, MP3, and....Others... :P
[03:26] <tubuntu> I just installed ubuntu on an old pc. 1ghz AMD procesoor, 256 mb of ram, and a 40 gb drive. I keeps locking on me, specially after leaving it on for a while. What do you thing hardware or OS
[03:26] <digdug> I'm trying to build a kernel package using make-kpkg, but I keep getting "tar: -: file name read contains nul character"
[03:26] <digdug> what am I doing wrong?
[03:26] <flake> or is there a better low-overhead editor that can execute cli type stuff?
[03:26] <emet> !syntapic > ThePlaneskeeper
[03:26] <Pelo> Jetfighter,  knowing the ... others ... would be helpfull
[03:26] <bruenig> sdrev, run this, sudo sed 's/# deb/deb/g' -i.backup /etc/apt/sources.list && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install deluge-torrent
[03:26] <Jetfighter> MP3 and WMA
[03:27] <emet> !synaptic > ThePlaneskeeper
[03:27] <Maul555> ...
[03:27] <Pelo> Jetfighter,  you'll definately have to convert then
[03:27] <emet> lol
[03:27] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: i have no doubt at all that it hasnt probably screwed up some systems(but most likely, those people are incompetent.....  It could be automatix, could be something else, just like you said, nobody knows.. I just think by now id have had a problem if it was automatix.
[03:27] <emet> !synaptic
[03:27] <Jetfighter> How again? :P
[03:27] <ubotu> synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[03:27] <fruitbag`> Hey.
[03:27] <emet> :P
[03:27] <Pollywog> ThePlaneskeeper: some people need the terminal installer
[03:27] <Jetfighter> emet, why did you do that?
[03:27] <Coffeegrindah> jetfighter: have you taken a look at the restricted formats wili?
[03:27] <emet> Jetfighter: he said he wanted non terminal way to install package
[03:27] <Coffeegrindah> wiki thatis
[03:27] <Jetfighter> wiki? I'm there now :P
[03:28] <AaronMT> !mp3
[03:28] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[03:28] <ochosi> hi, i just installed xsane today, but it mistakes my tv-card for my scanner (scsi-device). any ideas what to do about it?
[03:28] <IndyGunFreak> !rip
[03:28] <ubotu> For information about the Sound Juicer ripping application see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CDRipping. To rip an Audio CD in KDE, put it in and then put audiocd:// in the Konqueror URL bar
[03:28] <bruenig> IndyGunFreak, it just stopped on me at java on a fresh system, and then when I got out of it, I couldn't do anything in apt-get. I would try to use apt-get and it would have 30 important things queued for removal
[03:28] <Jetfighter> Should I sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-pitfdll gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse gxine libxine-main1 libxine-extracodecs ogle ogle-gui
[03:28] <bruenig> Jetfighter, yes you should
[03:28] <emet> Jetfighter: if you want lot of codeck support
[03:28] <emet> do vlc too
[03:28] <fruitbag`> I'm having an issue with concatenation...
[03:28] <Coffeegrindah> yup!
[03:29] <emet> vlc > ogle man
[03:29] <Jetfighter> bruenig, Whats KDE?
[03:29] <fruitbag`> Any thoughts?
[03:29] <bruenig> !kde | Jetfighter
[03:29] <ubotu> Jetfighter: KDE (http://kde.org) is the K Desktop Environment. To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop", or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE . Latest KDE veresion is 3.5.6 for Edgy and 3.5.5 for Dapper. See http://kubuntu.org for more information.
[03:29] <emet> !vlc
[03:29] <ubotu> Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Banshee, Beep Media Player, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, XMMS (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based).  Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine  -  See also !codecs
[03:29] <ThePlaneskeeper> Pollywog: i understand some people need it, but there really should be a simple UI for installing otherwise "sunsupported" software (like games) on your system
[03:29] <fruitbag`> Can anyone here help out?
[03:29] <ThePlaneskeeper> on *linux systemes
[03:29] <ochosi> anyone here has any experience with xsane or scanners in general in ubuntu?
[03:29] <tom47> ochosi it does the same here .... although i have to say it recognises both for me ... i just ignore its recognition of the tv card
[03:30] <fruitbag`> When I try to concatenate, I get a 'premission denied'
[03:30] <fruitbag`> Why is that?
[03:30] <emet> ThePlaneskeeper: it is up to the maker of the game to offer a graphical installer, for Windows games there is !wine and !cedega
[03:30] <bruenig> fruitbag`, you mean >
[03:30] <Jetfighter> fruitbag`, sudo COMMAND ?
[03:30] <fruitbag`> Jetfighter, : I've tried that.
[03:30] <fruitbag`> ;\
[03:30] <mon^rch> can someone help me setup symlinks in my ftp users /home ???
[03:30] <jrib> fruitbag`: tell us exactly what you are concatenating
[03:30] <mobiGeek> anyone able to get PHP5 working on Apache2 ?
[03:30] <sdrev> bruenig, thanks, that worked, but do you happen to know why the universe repository didn't actually load when i enabled it through the Synaptic Package manager?
[03:30] <jrib> mobiGeek: yes
[03:30] <emet> !lamp
[03:31] <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+)
[03:31] <fruitbag`> cat /cdrom/q101_int.1 /cdrom/q101_int.2 > /usr/local/games/quake/resource.1
[03:31] <mobiGeek> jrib: I keep getting a segfault starting apache2
[03:31] <bruenig> sdrev, because it was commented out, look back at your paste, line 16 and 17, anything that has a # in front of it is commented out and won't be read
[03:31] <mobiGeek> if I disable php5, then no probs.
[03:31] <Jetfighter> Jesus >.< How many things was that command?
[03:31] <emet> Jetfighter: apt kicks ass
[03:31] <Coffeegrindah> Jetfighter: enough to not worry about media playback
[03:31] <ThePlaneskeeper> emet: i'm not really meaning windows games- i mean just in general on linux systems, the idea if for people to configure, make, make install through terminal, which ususally (in my case) hasn't worked well, nor has it supported my experience in linux- it is quite a turn off
[03:31] <jrib> fruitbag`: the redirection there is done by the shell, which only has user permissions.  pipe to tee instead, for example:   echo "foo" | tee /some/file
[03:31] <bruenig> fruitbag`, cat /cdrom/q101_int.1 /cdrom/q101_int.2 | sudo tee /usr/local/games/quake/resource.1
[03:31] <Jetfighter> I installed that stuff, now what?
[03:31] <emet> ThePlaneskeeper: that is why we use apt-get
[03:32] <AzMoo> Hey, I've got a lamp server installed, but I want to change the php configuration. eg, I need the mcrypt extension, PDFLib, etc. I don't need to compile my own, do I ?
[03:32] <bruenig> got beat
[03:32] <Coffeegrindah> jetfighter: plus you may now have more encoding options in your ripping software
[03:32] <metalhedd> sudo nano -w /etc/mysql/my.cnf
[03:32] <Coffeegrindah> (like mp3)
[03:32] <jrib> bruenig: though I forgot the sudo
[03:32] <fruitbag`> What the hell is 'tee'?
[03:32] <Uff1> Hey, I just tried updating and got an error message saying i have duplicate sources.list entry...what to do?
[03:32] <metalhedd> ah!
[03:32] <gaspipe1> how do you find wheer a file is.... such as I installed mlpayer.. and I wish to now find it in "computer"?
[03:32] <emet> for programs not in apt-get, it is up for the developer to offer a way to install it
[03:32] <ThePlaneskeeper> emet: i have little or no success with apt-get
[03:32] <bruenig> fruitbag`, man tee
[03:32] <sdrev> bruenig, yeah, i noticed that it was commented out in the sources.list; does that mean the synaptic package manager doesn't have permission or the capabilities to uncomment that file?
[03:32] <bruenig> gaspipe1, well mplayer is a lot of files, if you mean the launcher then it is /usr/bin/mplayer
[03:32] <emet> ThePlaneskeeper: why specific problem you having?
[03:32] <emet> what*
[03:33] <tom47> Uff1 sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list and delete the duplicate line
[03:33] <Uff1> I see.
[03:33] <gaspipe1> bruenig: ok i'll check that i need to check/edit a line in a file
[03:33] <jrib> gaspipe1: to search you can choose from several commands: locate, find, whereis...
[03:33] <flake> is defragging necessary with linux?
[03:33] <bruenig> sdrev, you have to set it to do it in preferences or something. I am not sure exactly where you do that, But you have to configure synaptic to uncomment it.
[03:33] <Jetfighter> Attempting to convert now.
[03:33] <emet> flake: not really if you use ext3
[03:33] <sdrev> bruenig, ok, thanks
[03:33] <bruenig> gaspipe1, it is a binary
[03:34] <Coffeegrindah> has any one tried ubuntu on a flash drive?
[03:34] <emet> ntfs fragments very quickly
[03:34] <fruitbag`> bruenig, 'man tee' ?
[03:34] <ThePlaneskeeper> emet: well i have tried installing several things now, and in each case i am missing libraries that i have to manually search out and find (with synaptic- and this is a distributor problem- they aren't telling me all of the dependancies)
[03:34] <fruitbag`> Explain, sir.
[03:34] <nipplesrulz> riht
[03:34] <nipplesrulz> so my system is still scr3@#$!@#$
[03:34] <bruenig> fruitbag`, yeah you wanted to know what it was, do "man tee" it will explain
[03:34] <gaspipe1> jrib: where would you type those commands
[03:34] <nipplesrulz> it keeps rebooting for apparently no reason
[03:34] <jrib> gaspipe1: in a shell
[03:34] <nipplesrulz> and i think its failing to mount data in ordered data mode.
[03:34] <jrib> gaspipe1: (terminal)
[03:34] <emet> ThePlaneskeeper: well the dependancies should be sorted by apt
[03:34] <fruitbag`> bruenig, I did it, and I got a load of jibberish.
[03:34] <emet> if not, that is a bug
[03:34] <emet> what program
[03:34] <ThePlaneskeeper> emet: and in addition, i have had trouble getting "./configure, and make to actually configure and make the programs
[03:34] <nipplesrulz> did the forcefsck already which pronounced the partition clean.. is there a way i can tell what else might be contributing to all this?
[03:34] <fruitbag`> I get jumbled ASCII.
[03:35] <bruenig> fruitbag`, it says tee - read from standard input and write to standard output and files
[03:35] <jrib> gaspipe1: there is places > search  if you want gui
[03:35] <emet> ThePlaneskeeper: you do not need to compile from source
[03:35] <Jetfighter> I got it, thanks for your help
[03:35] <emet> !apt-get | ThePlaneskeeper
[03:35] <ubotu> ThePlaneskeeper: 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)
[03:35] <fruitbag`> bruenig, that isn't helping.
[03:35] <ThePlaneskeeper> emet: most of the time i do because it is all that is offered
[03:35] <Kronuz> hi
[03:35] <emet> for what program
[03:35] <fruitbag`> Why can't I just 'cat' without getting a 'premission denied' ?
[03:35] <bruenig> fruitbag`, oh I thought you meant the man page wasn't working
[03:35] <jrib> fruitbag`: I explained it to you before
[03:35] <Jetfighter> Although, just telling me about sudo apt-get install soundconverter (bruenig, yes, I actually did that on my own. :P
[03:36] <ThePlaneskeeper> emet: ogre 3-d
[03:36] <bruenig> fruitbag`, you can cat without getting a permission denied, you can't > without getting a permission denied
[03:36] <Kronuz> hey, what about the Gnome 2.18? will it be soon in the packages' repository?
[03:36] <emet> !ogre3d
[03:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ogre3d - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:36] <fruitbag`> bruenig, why?
[03:36] <Kronuz> or how can I get it?
[03:36] <ThePlaneskeeper> emet: Daimonin
[03:36] <Jetfighter> bruenig, I thank you for yelling and screaming about sudo apt-get install package :P
[03:36] <ThePlaneskeeper> a game
[03:36] <bruenig> fruitbag`, because the redirection like jrib said is being done by the user
[03:36] <fruitbag`> bruenig, can I do anything about this?
[03:36] <Jetfighter> !kde > Jetfighter
[03:36] <jrib> Kronuz: you'll have to wait for feisty in april if you want it packaged

[03:36] <VeganChic1> I can't install the repository needed to play dvds
[03:37] <bruenig> fruitbag`, you can either use tee, or you can do sudo bash -c "cat whatever > whatevera"
[03:37] <jrib> VeganChic1: which repository?
[03:37] <Coffeegrindah> Jetfighter: why do you need KDE? or you just looking into it?

[03:37] <ThePlaneskeeper> emet: just seems if there was a universal install setup, it would make newcomers alot more welcome- to be honest i didn't want to have to relearn how to do virtually everything when i switched to linux, but i have had to
[03:37] <nyc-h0st> nothing gets written to the log
[03:38] <emet> !libogre-dev

[03:38] <VeganChic1> I'm getting error messages in terminal.
[03:38] <Coffeegrindah> it's a little overcrowded imho, lots of "prettyness", but in the end it's the same diff
[03:38] <VeganChic1> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10562/
[03:38] <fruitbag`> This is becoming really frustrating....
[03:38] <emet> and I know for a fact you can apt-get ogre
[03:38] <gaspipe1> hmmm I need to edit this file...mplayer/gui.conf what would be the easiest way to find it... in xp I would use "my computer" and look in program files...
[03:38] <emet> since I work with it
[03:38] <bruenig> fruitbag`, there have been two ways given to you that will work, perhaps the command itself doesn't work
[03:38] <fruitbag`> Nearly everything that I do, I get denied premission.
[03:39] <jrib> VeganChic1: do you have synaptic or update-manager open?
[03:39] <Jetfighter> Windows is a [censor]  piece of [censor]  :P
[03:39] <ThePlaneskeeper> emet: Mac OS and Windows are fairly simialr and took me about 30 minutes to make the switch- it has taken me the better part of 3 weeks to switch to linux
[03:39] <nyc-h0st> ok guys wth i going on, i'm doing %wget [args]  > [name] .log & and i'm still seeing the output buffer, anyone???
[03:39] <fruitbag`> What the hell is going on, man?
[03:39] <fruitbag`> This is annoying the hell out of me.
[03:39] <dhtechs> anyone tried to dl automatix lately?
[03:39] <bruenig> VeganChic1, close synaptic
[03:39] <VeganChic1> jrib, no I closed both of them
[03:39] <fruitbag`> I can't do anything...
[03:39] <jrib> fruitbag`: other than redirection, what is getting denied?
[03:39] <tom47> fruitbag do you understand permissions in linux?
[03:39] <jrib> VeganChic1: ps -ef | grep apt   on pastebin
[03:39] <bruenig> I guess there is always a chance that his system is just hosed
[03:39] <gaspipe1> Jetfighter: I agree thats why I am try'n to learn this system :)
[03:39] <Jetfighter> So am I
[03:39] <emet> heh
[03:40] <Jetfighter> So far, PriceChild and bruenig have saved me from killing myself painfully and slowly.
[03:40] <nu-> what is the command to list which HDs are hd0, hd1, etc?
[03:40] <emet> dh -h ?
[03:40] <Jetfighter> I think so
[03:40] <nu-> dont know?
[03:40] <emet> err
[03:40] <VeganChic1> jrib, I didn't understand that...
[03:40] <nu-> alright, thanks

[03:40] <ThePlaneskeeper> emet: i'm not trying to be an ass- i'm just pointing out tht a veteran in Windows and in Mac OS, and it still takes me 3 weeks? thats a steep learning curve...
[03:41] <Alonea> ok, is there an app like windows' sound recorder? I need to speed up a sound and reverse it.
[03:41] <emet> wait
[03:41] <bruenig> df -j wpm
[03:41] <jrib> VeganChic1: sorry, enter this command in your terminal and pastebin the output:  ps -ef | grep apt
[03:41] <emet> that's not it
[03:41] <nu-> lol
[03:41] <bruenig> df -h won't work anyways
[03:41] <emet> df -j wpm
[03:41] <emet> ah
[03:41] <emet> well df -h is useful to know
[03:41] <emet> :)
[03:41] <bruenig> emet, my right hand was one key over
[03:41] <fruitbag`> This is ridiculous...
[03:41] <fruitbag`> Why permission denied?
[03:41] <Jetfighter> Well....... Applications > Accesories > Disk Usage Manager?
[03:41] <flake> ls -l  shows permissions
[03:41] <emet> fruitbag`: you aren't root
[03:41] <emet> how about
[03:41] <bruenig> fruitbag`, paste the exact command you are doing
[03:41] <emet> do sudo -i

[03:42] <sdrev> bruenig, if you don't mind me asking is the synaptic package manager just a gui for apt-get? if so, how - or is it - related to aptitude?
[03:42] <Coffeegrindah> anyone play with persistant boot ?

[03:42] <bruenig> sudo bash -c "cat /cdrom/q101_int.1 /cdrom/q101_int.2 > /usr/local/games/quake/resource.1"
[03:42] <fruitbag`> I have to use quotes?
[03:42] <VeganChic1> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10563/
[03:42] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig: i think it apt-get
[03:42] <fruitbag`> Ok
[03:42] <ThePlaneskeeper> emet: that seems silly... to be honest
[03:43] <sdrev> IndyGunFreak, thanks
[03:43] <jrib> VeganChic1: it says synaptic is running.  Are you sure it isn't minimized or on another workspace?
[03:43] <bruenig> it depends how much time, it took me about a month to be extremely comfortable with it, but it was during the summer and I was off school
[03:43] <fruitbag`> bruenig, I think it's working.
[03:43] <emet> ThePlaneskeeper: I like learning thing, and I already knew too much bout windows
[03:43] <fruitbag`> I'm not getting an indication of anything, however.
[03:43] <VeganChic1> hah, found it!
[03:43] <ThePlaneskeeper> emet: meh
[03:43] <gaspipe1> !find file
[03:43] <ubotu> Found: base-files, coreutils, desktop-file-utils, file, file-roller (and 135 others)
[03:43] <fruitbag`> Is that normal, bruenig ?
[03:43] <VeganChic1> cube is both a blessing and a curse
[03:43] <bruenig> fruitbag`, generally redirections don't give anything
[03:43] <fruitbag`> Fine
[03:44] <fruitbag`> bruenig, thanks.
[03:44] <Kronuz> are there any cutting edge repositories?
[03:44] <fruitbag`> bruenig, but why is permission denied in these cases, usually?
[03:44] <emet> ThePlaneskeeper: well it helped me get a job :O
[03:44] <Kronuz> like to get Xorg 7.2 and Gnome 2.18, etc.. (as ubuntu packages)
[03:44] <Coffeegrindah> is there any IRC chanel for usb-ubuntu or persistant booting?
[03:44] <flake> whaat xactly does bash do?  that's one thing I haven't looked into yet
[03:44] <nu-> anyone here using kubuntu? can i tell where to install grub like i can with ubuntu 6.10?
[03:45] <ThePlaneskeeper> Notice to all: if you make me a ergodex driver and very rudamentary but working UI for linux, i'd reward you with 100 dollars (not that anyone would do it for $100, but thats what i'd offer for such a thing)
[03:45] <mon^rch> can someone please tell me how to make a symlink that belongs to everybody
[03:45] <jrib> flake: bash is a shell, it reads your commands and does stuff with them
[03:45] <vishah> PRIVMSG aalhamad hi
[03:45] <bruenig> fruitbag`, alright, maybe this time it will make sense. cat is one thing, > is another thing. If you do sudo cat, that doesn't apply to the >, since the > is writing to a file that needs root permissions and the sudo isn't applying to it, you get permission denied.
[03:45] <ochosi_> tom47 sorry, somehow i disconnected. i just wanted to ask where you could choose between your tv-card and your scanner
[03:45] <ThePlaneskeeper> emet: well thats nice, maybe this will help me get a job ome day, but i hate learning things like this- its very frustrating
[03:46] <jrib> mon^rch: what are you trying to accomplish?
[03:46] <flake> jrib - how is bash different from typing up the stuff in a text file and doing  sh  ....  to run the script file?
[03:46] <emet> someone suggest some random package
[03:46] <fruitbag`> Heh...
[03:46] <bruenig> emet, moo
[03:46] <Coffeegrindah> emet rootage
[03:46] <Coffeegrindah> rrootage rather
[03:46] <tom47> ochosi_ when xsane comes up they are both listed on the zsane graphic ... radio btton selection
[03:46] <emet> ThePlaneskeeper: then don't worry bout it, you can get job knowing only windows as a window sysadmin or something :o
[03:46] <fruitbag`> bruenig, this is taking an awfully long time.
[03:46] <Coffeegrindah> fun times.. fun times..
[03:46] <fruitbag`> Furthermore, I'm getting no response from my cdrom drive.
[03:46] <jrib> flake: well sh used to be the same as bash.  Now sh is dash, it's a lighter shell, better for running scripts.  But bash is nicer if you want something interactive
[03:46] <jrib> flake: when i say "used to be", I mean in ubuntu
[03:47] <fruitbag`> Heh...
[03:47] <fruitbag`> This is extremely unhelpful.
[03:47] <flake> ok
[03:47] <ThePlaneskeeper> emet: download the cluster management in add/remove, and cry as it locks up your system when booting grub (unkown interupt problem)
[03:47] <bruenig> fruitbag` is trolling
[03:47] <fruitbag`> I get acompletely blank screen, and it has been like this for a long time.
[03:47] <fruitbag`> Is this normal?
[03:47] <fruitbag`> bruenig, I'm not trolling.
[03:47] <daltin> how do i set the write permission to all the files and subdirectories of a directory? :)
[03:47] <jrib> flake: so you could do  'bash somescript.sh'  too and have bash source the file
[03:47] <daltin> im kinda of newbie
[03:47] <fruitbag`> Just a frustrated Linux noobie... ;p
[03:47] <bruenig> daltin, sudo chmod +w -R directory
[03:48] <emet> ThePlaneskeeper: well I have ubuntu broken on daily biases because I am helping a little with the development and using alpha versions of fiesty :o
[03:48] <Jetfighter> A 3.5 MEGABYTE song?
[03:48] <flake> k
[03:48] <daltin> thanks, bruenig
[03:48] <emet> so you preaching to the wrong person!
[03:48] <jrib> fruitbag`: do you understand what the > does?
[03:48] <Toma-> fruitbag`: whats your problem?
[03:48] <fruitbag`> jrib, not exactly.
[03:48] <hsimah> hey one more question
[03:48] <fruitbag`> Toma-, I need to concatenate.
[03:48] <fruitbag`> But I am denied permission.
[03:48] <ThePlaneskeeper> emet: ew...i have just managed to get my system stable enough to not worry about it crashing every half hour- i would hate that
[03:48] <hsimah> im trying to install the codecs to play movies and stuff, but i cant find where totem wants them to be stored
[03:49] <emet> fruitbag`: "sudo cat"
[03:49] <bruenig> hsimah, just installing them via the repositories, will set it up right
[03:49] <Jetfighter> !sudo > fruitbag`
[03:49] <bruenig> !restricted | hsimah
[03:49] <ubotu> hsimah: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[03:49] <emet> ThePlaneskeeper: well maybe development isn't for you, since the same things happen in windows developement
[03:49] <fruitbag`> emet, I've tried that.
[03:49] <bruenig> Jetfighter, it is > not sudo that I think he is having a problem with
[03:49] <tom47> fruitbag do you have a good understanding of file permissions in linux?
[03:49] <eilker> anyone using audacity on edgy ? i have no text on its menu...
[03:49] <Jetfighter> Oh
[03:49] <hsimah> ah thanks
[03:49] <Toma-> fruitbag`: what are you trying to do exactly?
[03:49] <daltin> bruenig: but i want to set permission to other users too..
[03:49] <Jetfighter> Well, bruenig, doesn't that show that I'm really trying?
[03:50] <bruenig> eilker, I am using it, and I do have text
[03:50] <bruenig> daltin, you want them all to be able to write to it right?
[03:50] <Uff1> Hey Guys
[03:50] <emet> bruenig: he prob has permission set to no read
[03:50] <emet> bruenig: sudo would bypass that
[03:50] <emet> no?
[03:50] <jrib> fruitbag`: ok, try this in your shell:  echo "foo"    then try this:   echo "foo" > ~/bar  .  You'll see that all that the '>' does is _redirect_ the output of the previous command to the file called ~/bar .  The shell is what actually does this redirection
[03:50] <ochosi_> tom47 ok, then it seems xsane just doesnt detect my scanner (umax astra 610s) although its supported
[03:50] <bruenig> emet, no, sudo cat file > newfile, will not work
[03:50] <daltin> bruenig: yes, why?
[03:50] <ThePlaneskeeper> emet: well, i'm a developer, but i do graphics (art) and BGM (background music) for Daimonin
[03:50] <bruenig> daltin, ok yeah +w does that
[03:50] <fruitbag`> deice.exe  install.bat  q101_int.1  q101_int.2  q101_int.dat  readintr.txt  sw
[03:50] <fruitbag`> navid@ubuntu:~$ cat /cdrom/q101_int.1 /cdrom/q101_int.2 > /usr/local/games/quake/resource.1
[03:50] <fruitbag`> bash: /usr/local/games/quake/resource.1: Permission denied
[03:51] <emet> !daimonin
[03:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about daimonin - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:51] <IndyGunFreak> Uff1: what happened?
[03:51] <tom47> ochosi_ ah ok .... i will ponder this and see if i remember anything
[03:51] <ochosi_> tom47 thanks, i would appreciate any hints
[03:51] <daltin> look at my ls -l output
[03:51] <daltin> -rwxr-xr-x 1 daltin daltin 19350 2006-12-24 23:38 index.php
[03:51] <daltin> -rw-r--r-- 1 daltin daltin 25297 2006-12-24 23:13 save.php
[03:51] <emet> ThePlaneskeeper: cool
[03:51] <Uff1> I have a serious problem, at first when i rebooted after updating, X wouldn\t start, and when I got into x (nightmare for me, as I am a noob), every setting was gone... I had to edit gaim accounts and all...
[03:51] <bruenig> fruitbag`, we told you two different ways to do it..........way 1. sudo bash -c "cat /cdrom/q101_int.1 /cdrom/q101_int.2 > /usr/local/games/quake/resource.1" ........... way 2. cat /cdrom/q101_int.1 /cdrom/q101_int.2 | sudo tee /usr/local/games/quake/resource.1.......pick one
[03:51] <hsimah> wow
[03:51] <emet> I bookmarked it
[03:51] <hsimah> ubuntu has an add/remove
[03:51] <ThePlaneskeeper> emet: i'm going to be doing blender soon- but i wanted my ergodex to work before i do it- but i don't think thats going to happen, so i'll have to get a new version of windows for my new computer and run blender on windows
[03:51] <Jetfighter> bruenig, how big are most .mp3 files?
[03:51] <hsimah> coooool :D
[03:51] <fruitbag`> bruenig, that doesn't work, man.
[03:52] <bruenig> Jetfighter, depends on a lot
[03:52] <bruenig> fruitbag`, it does work
[03:52] <Uff1> and now my swedish keyboard settings won\t work...
[03:52] <Veinor> Well, after I reformatted my hard drive and booted the recovery partiton, I finally have a dual-boot Ubuntu-Vista system. (The only reason I keep Vista is for games and the like)
[03:52] <Jetfighter> What would you guess as the average?
[03:52] <fruitbag`> bruenig, I just get a completely blank screen, and it stays like that for a long time.
[03:52] <bruenig> 4 MB maybe
[03:52] <IndyGunFreak> Uff1: that doesn't make a lot of sense.
[03:52] <fruitbag`> There is no response from my cdrom drive.
[03:52] <Coffeegrindah> jetfighter: at 192 Kbps it's ROUGHTLY 1MB = 1 Min
[03:52] <Toma-> fruitbag`: ahh. use the 'tee' version of what bruenig said. thats my suggestion
[03:52] <Jetfighter> I've gotten a 3.5 and a 4.5 :(
[03:52] <Uff1> I know. :/
[03:52] <fruitbag`> Toma-, very well.
[03:52] <Kronuz> so there's no gnome 2.18 package for ubuntu yet?
[03:52] <nu-> anyone here using kubuntu? can i tell where to install grub like i can with ubuntu 6.10?
[03:52] <tom47> ochosi_ is the scanner listed in device manager?
[03:52] <fruitbag`> But what the hell is 'tee'?
[03:52] <Toma-> fruitbag`: then tell us the error from that
[03:53] <fruitbag`> What an obscure name...
[03:53] <bruenig> fruitbag`, tee is a command that is used to redirect the output to a file, just like >
[03:53] <Toma-> 'man tee'
[03:53] <emet> Kronuz: fiesty will have it
[03:53] <Veinor> tee isn't exactly obscure
[03:53] <fruitbag`> Whe I use the 'tee' method, I get a terminal full of jumbled ASCII.
[03:53] <nipplesrulz> sigh.
[03:53] <nipplesrulz> mneptok u about?
[03:53] <ochosi_> tom47 hmmm. o
[03:53] <Kronuz> emet, fiesty?
[03:53] <jrib> fruitbag`: think of a t-shaped pipe
[03:53] <nipplesrulz> guess he's not
[03:53] <ochosi_> tom47 i'll have a quick look
[03:53] <Uff1> Oh, and it seems like synaptic is gone from my menues, as well as program sources and stuff...
[03:53] <emet> !fiesty | Kronuz
[03:53] <ubotu> Kronuz: The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn"), it should be released in April 2007. At the moment it is alpha. Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyReleaseSchedule - Specifications (goals): https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/feisty - Help and support in #ubuntu+1 (NOT #ubuntu)
[03:53] <Uff1> menus|
[03:53] <nipplesrulz> well. my machine started rebooting randomly in the last 3 days.
[03:54] <Toma-> fruitbag`: yep. that means its copying all that ascii goodness to the file in question
[03:54] <nipplesrulz> any thoughts?
[03:54] <Veinor> Fun fact: Try tee - - - - - - - - - - - and you'll get whatever you type in back out at you MANY times.
[03:54] <bruenig> daltin, it should have worked, maybe it needs the -R to come before, sudo chmod -R +w directory
[03:54] <Kronuz> emet, but I won't need to get it and install it, right?
[03:54] <IndyGunFreak> Uff1: did you install easyubuntu?
[03:54] <emet> Kronuz: it will come preinstalled with Fiesty
[03:54] <Uff1> yes
[03:54] <IndyGunFreak> Uff1: what makes you believe all of your sources are gone?
[03:54] <Kronuz> I mean I can just update the packages with Synaptic, can't I?
[03:55] <tues> i got ubuntu installed hurray i did a lot of upgrading but nowi m wondering what it taked to get it so an mp3 canbe played in firefox any suggestion?
[03:55] <bruenig> !mozilla-mplayer | tues
[03:55] <ubotu> tues: mozilla-mplayer: MPlayer-Plugin for Mozilla. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 3.31-1 (edgy), package size 467 kB, installed size 1616 kB
[03:55] <Uff1> Well, i can\t see it in the menus
[03:55] <fruitbag`> Toma-, thanks
[03:55] <fruitbag`> Thanks all...
[03:55] <fruitbag`> It's working.
[03:55] <Toma-> no probs
[03:55] <Kronuz> but aren't there any repositories with the most recent versions of packages?
[03:55] <Uff1> what was the command for checking graphics card again_
[03:55] <Uff1> something with grep direct
[03:56] <Kronuz> like "testing" repositories
[03:56] <Kronuz> or someething
[03:56] <IndyGunFreak> Uff1: open a terminal and type sudo synaptic
[03:56] <gaspipe1> I am try'n to edit a file called .mplayer/gui.conf... how can I find it.. I ty'd "locate" in termanal with no luck...
[03:56] <Toma-> Uff1: you want to see what card you have?
[03:56] <daltin> bruenig: didnt work instead
[03:56] <bruenig> Kronuz, backports will have the highest version, other than that the repos are what they are
[03:56] <Uff1> yes toma
[03:56] <Coffeegrindah> gaspipe1: you want window-ish instructions?
[03:56] <Uff1> indygunfreak: yeah, it\s there
[03:56] <Toma-> Uff1: 'lspci | grep VGA'
[03:56] <jrib> gaspipe1: ~/.mplayer/gui.conf  is the location
[03:56] <eilker>  i have problem with audacity, any alternatives of it ?
[03:56] <IndyGunFreak> Uff1: ok
[03:56] <Kronuz> bruenig, what's that of backports?
[03:57] <bruenig> daltin, well maybe somebody else will know, I am almost certain that sudo chmod +w -R should work
[03:57] <fruitbag`> But I think it gets stuck in the middle... ;\
[03:57] <Toma-> eilker: what problems?
[03:57] <naknomik> Hi I'm trying to install Automatix but the site is not loading.
[03:57] <fruitbag`> Is it the middle, or is it the end?
[03:57] <Coffeegrindah> it's a hidden file.. go to your home directory in nautilus, and go view - show hidden files..
[03:57] <bruenig> Kronuz, backports is very small though
[03:57] <preaction> naknomik: bad idea
[03:57] <bruenig> !automatix | naknomik
[03:57] <ubotu> naknomik: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[03:57] <drIcX> i need help
[03:57] <jrib> !helpme | drIcX
[03:57] <IndyGunFreak> Uff1: you can always look in xorg.conf again and see if it recognized your card(since it said generic before)... sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:57] <drIcX> with a lucent modem
[03:57] <ubotu> drIcX: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:57] <eilker> toma-: no text in its menus
[03:57] <IndyGunFreak> automatix is the devil
[03:57] <naknomik> preaction: What is badidea?
[03:58] <daltin> does anybody knows how can i set the write permission to all files and subdirectories from an directory?
[03:58] <Toma-> eilker: wow... thats weird. have you got the right locale going?
[03:58] <orehon> I have installed on my ubuntu 6.10 kernel 2.6.17-10-generic and i got this mesage after load the ndiswrapper http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10564/ ... anyone can help me?
[03:58] <Jetfighter> Now what do I use to burn these songs to my CD?
[03:58] <gaspipe1> Coffeegrindah: lol didn't take much to figure out that I'm  a -ish user huh

[03:58] <Uff1> monitor settings, i mean
[03:58] <Jetfighter> Kk, thanks (As usual) :P
[03:58] <drIcX> when i tried to connect, wvdial types "no carrier" i already put carrier check = no on wvdial.conf... and still doing the same... what should i do?
[03:58] <IndyGunFreak> Uff1: i honestly don't know enougha bout easy ubuntu to be anu use, but i'd try opening easy ubuntu, and uninstalling whatever i twas you installed.
[03:58] <unclemike> ? anyone use mythtv
[03:58] <Coffeegrindah> mind you it's been about 7 years.. but ish works
[03:58] <eilker> toma-: what do u mean ? permissions ?
[03:58] <jrib> gaspipe1: try in a terminal:   gedit ~/.mplayer/gui.conf

[03:59] <fruitbag`> Man...
[03:59] <bruenig> !codecs | naknomik it is probably a lack of codecs not a bad app

[03:59] <fruitbag`> It's stuck.
[03:59] <drIcX> when i tried to connect, wvdial types "no carrier" i already put carrier check = no on wvdial.conf... and still doing the same... what should i do?
[03:59] <DarkPath> anyone know the best way to disable speedstep/cpu_freq modules from loading at boot?
[03:59] <ochosi_> tom47 seems like its a scsi problem, i'll have to set it up somehow
[03:59] <i3ooi3oo_> !nivida-gxl-legacy
[03:59] <IndyGunFreak> naknomik: i wouldn't mess with easy ubuntu.
[03:59] <ochosi_> tom47 thanks for now, bye
[03:59] <tues> how do i install an rpm file?
[03:59] <jrib> daltin: you usually don't need to do recursive permissions like that.  What directory is this?
[03:59] <bruenig> fruitbag`, perhaps that command is failed, I mean are these binaries or something that you are catting or what
[03:59] <jrib> !rpm | tues
[03:59] <ubotu> tues: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu does not use RPM, but !APT, and RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[03:59] <james296> Coffee...wait what?
[03:59] <eilker> toma-: good shoot, may be it is in french, btw i have english packages
[04:00] <gaspipe1> jrib
[04:00] <gaspipe1> crap
[04:00] <fruitbag`> bruenig, binaries, man.
[04:00] <bruenig> fruitbag`, you can't cat binaries
[04:00] <nipplesrulz> anyone ever had ubuntu just offer to shutdown / hybernate / restart by itself ?
[04:00] <gaspipe1> jrib: that worked...thanks
[04:00] <i3ooi3oo_> !nivida-glx-legacy
[04:00] <nipplesrulz> on a desktop ?

[04:00] <Coffeegrindah> USBLIVE...

[04:00] <Toma-> eilker: ok. audacity really is a fantastic program :) it might be because its a gtk1 application. let me look into it.
[04:00] <ubotu> nvidia-glx-legacy: NVIDIA binary XFree86 4.x/X.Org 'legacy' driver. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1.0.7184+2.6.17.7-11.2 (edgy), package size 2998 kB, installed size 9832 kB
[04:00] <fruitbag`> bruenig, well, it is explained in a tutorial for installing Linux Quake.
[04:00] <Coffeegrindah> through I can't get user's to work right with persistance
[04:00] <drIcX> when i tried to connect, wvdial types "no carrier" i already put carrier check = no on wvdial.conf... and still doing the same... what should i do?
[04:00] <i3ooi3oo_> !nvidia-legacy

[04:01] <daltin> jrib: i want to set write permission to the files of my htdocs folder, so i can install an CMS with an automatic php script
[04:01] <jrib> gaspipe1: I use mplayer myself and you'll find that most programs store user settings in ~/.<name of program>
[04:01] <Toma-> fruitbag`: ahhh quake. where is this tutorial?
[04:01] <eilker> toma-: one small detail, kde here :) 6.10
[04:01] <fruitbag`> Toma-, http://linux.omnipotent.net/article.php?article_id=11261
[04:01] <IndyGunFreak> !kubuntu
[04:01] <ubotu> Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE
[04:01] <Toma-> eilker: ahh now we start to get into it :)
[04:01] <naknomik> bruenig: actually I'm on Kubuntu.
[04:01] <james296> ok I was referring to the new Ubuntu Live site lol
[04:01] <bruenig> naknomik, it doesn't matter, codecs are codecs
[04:01] <gaspipe1> jrib: ok thanks again
[04:01] <Toma-> fruitbag`: this is from november 2000.
[04:01] <fruitbag`> ;w
[04:01] <gaspipe1> jrib: if I didn't know where to find it could I do a search in terminal?
[04:01] <Toma-> fruitbag`: you would be mad to use this :D
[04:02] <fruitbag`> Toma-, I just want to run Quake on Linxu ;\
[04:02] <fruitbag`> Toma-, do you have any better suggestions?
[04:02] <Toma-> fruitbag`: ive been running it for years. gimme a sec
[04:02] <cerealkiller219> where can i find a troubleshoot guide for beryl
[04:02] <fruitbag`> Toma-, thanks.

[04:02] <hsimah> in my add/remove applications i dont have the ubuntu restricted extras package
[04:02] <mattyv> Bug 72262 has been around for quite some time and seems to have been ignored. It was handed to the Debian guys but they haven't taken action. What can we do to get it seriously looked at (I feel more "me too" comments on the bug won't help)? The problem affects new OOo Base users, and the workaround isn't suitable for new people...hardly ideal
[04:03] <bruenig> hsimah, what?
[04:03] <jrib> gaspipe1: yes.  locate uses a database which won't find recent files until it is updated (you can force an update with 'sudo updatedb' but they happen periodically).  You can use the 'find' command as well which will be much slower but just searches a location recursively, example usage:  find ~ -name gui.conf
[04:03] <mbdl> hello everyone does anyone know where gDesklets is located
[04:03] <hsimah> on the url i got given it says to go: Click Applications ? Add/Remove. Select Other and then select the Ubuntu restricted extras package. Click OK.
[04:03] <bruenig> mattyv, one work around sudo apt-get install abiword seems to do very well
[04:03] <mbdl> or where the defaul install location is
[04:03] <hsimah> and i dont have that package in my system
[04:03] <[BTF] Chm0d> im getting this error when trying to build something is there something else I need to install?  autoreconf2.50: /usr/bin/autoconf failed with exit status: 1
[04:03] <mattyv> bruenig, Abiword for database?
[04:04] <bruenig> hsimah, that sounds like feisty, ther eis no ubuntu restricted extras package
[04:04] <jrib> daltin: I don't know what htdocs is but it seems like this should just be installed as root (using sudo).  Let me know if I am wrong
[04:04] <bruenig> mattyv, database you say
[04:04] <hsimah> ah
[04:04] <gaspipe1> jrib ok thanks so much!
[04:04] <daltin> i've already tried sudo
[04:04] <gaspipe1> jrib: ok thanks so much! <srry for dup>
[04:04] <mattyv> bruenig,  Yeah, I should be more clear. It's OOo's Base program, rather than the base components
[04:04] <hsimah> im using 6.10 edgy eft
[04:04] <delaney> anyone know how to set the icon theme in openbox 3.3.1  so that thunar or any other file manager doesnt show the generic NOT SET icon
[04:04] <daltin> i've took an extreme way to do this. just typed: sudo chmod 777 -R /directory
[04:04] <jrib> gaspipe1: np, if you don't already know, you can read documentation by typing 'man COMMAND', so 'man find' and 'man locate' for example
[04:05] <Toma-> fruitbag`: heres the latest in Quake ports and probably the best. http://fquake.sourceforge.net/
[04:05] <Toma-> fruitbag`: as you can see, its just a simple .pak copy installation
[04:05] <bruenig> daltin, there is no reason to expect that 777 will work and +w won't
[04:05] <hsimah> oh wait, ive read the page wrong
[04:05] <hsimah> sorry
[04:05] <mbdl> or does anyone know what folder programs like gdesklets gets installed in
[04:05] <bruenig> mbdl, dpkg -L gdesklets
[04:05] <gaspipe1> jrib: in terminal I am assuming
[04:06] <jrib> daltin: the -R should come before the permissions.  Maybe that is why it didn't like +w?
[04:06] <jrib> gaspipe1: right
[04:06] <daltin> bruenig: but it worked!!
[04:06] <mbdl> bruenig: omg thx
[04:06] <daltin> thanks
[04:07] <bruenig> daltin, that is baffling, why would 777 -R work but +w -R not work
[04:07] <Coffeegrindah> where can I find the /grub/menu.lst or whichever so I can enter my encrypted password?

[04:07] <orehon> I have installed on my ubuntu 6.10 kernel 2.6.17-10-generic and i got this mesage after load the ndiswrapper http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10564/ ... anyone can help me?
[04:07] <fruitbag`> Toma-, ah...
[04:07] <fruitbag`> Cheers, my dear fellow.
[04:07] <daltin> bruenig: i just cant figure out
[04:08] <Coffeegrindah> bruneig: thats what I was afraid of..
[04:08] <Toma-> no probs. next time google something like "ubuntu quake" :)
[04:08] <fruitbag`> Toma-,  hm...
[04:08] <fruitbag`> Toma-, I'm not sure that would run fast enough on my laptop
[04:08] <danco1982> first time here, how is this?
[04:08] <bruenig> !hi | danco1982
[04:08] <ubotu> danco1982: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[04:08] <Toma-> fruitbag`: what stats has your laptop got?
[04:08] <fruitbag`> Toma-, are you aware of less resource expensive port?
[04:08] <danco1982> hi!!
[04:09] <fruitbag`> fQuake is likely to run frustratingly slow on this machine,
[04:09] <Toma-> fruitbag`: yeh hangon
[04:10] <Toma-> fruitbag`: you can give it a try and then if its horrid, just use these tweaks http://fquake.sourceforge.net/getstarted.html#step4.3
[04:10] <Coffeegrindah> Usning syslinux is there a way to set the grub password?
[04:10] <fruitbag`> It can't be too resource intensive.
[04:10] <Qlippoth> will i be able to access my files from my other partitions? like viewing pictures and playing music?
[04:11] <Toma-> fruitbag`: only 1 way to find out
[04:11] <preaction> Qlippoth: yes'm
[04:11] <AzMoo> Hi, I've installed a LAMP server but I need to customize my PHP configuration. I need to add several things, such as mcrypt and PDFLib. Are there packages to do this?
[04:11] <Uff1> This is killing me, anyone know of any burning programs? need to get the 32-bit version instead
[04:12] <preaction> AzMoo: LAMP from Ubuntu Server? you probably need to edit /etc/php.conf (or something like that)
[04:12] <elijah> hi
[04:12] <preaction> !burn | Uff1
[04:12] <ubotu> Uff1: 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
[04:12] <tom47> Uff1
[04:12] <tom47> oops
[04:12] <elijah> where will i download the extra codecs for totem movie player?
[04:12] <bruenig> preaction, I know mcrypt is a package
[04:12] <bruenig> !quicktime | elijah
[04:12] <ubotu> elijah: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[04:13] <AzMoo> preaction: No, I need extra modules that don't come with the install.
[04:13] <chorse> AzMoo: sure :) there's php5-mcrypt and using the package php5-dev you can build third party modules from the sources, too
[04:13] <fruitbag`> Toma-, any suggestions on what I could do?
[04:13] <Toma-> fruitbag`: try fquake and turn the special effects off?
[04:14] <AzMoo> chorse: php5-mcrypt? I couldn't find that when I did an apt-cache search
[04:14] <chorse> AzMoo: enable universe
[04:14] <elijah> thanks
[04:15] <AzMoo> chorse: ah, of course, thanks.
[04:15] <Uff1> So, at the ubuntu homepage it says there are 3 desktop versions...1 for intel x86, 1 for ppc, 1 for amd64...I have the amd 64 one, but I don\t want the 64-bit version...what to do_
[04:15] <chorse> AzMoo: you're welcome
[04:15] <Coffeegrindah> Ufft! x386
[04:15] <gdb> Uff1: get x86 then, it's 32bit
[04:16] <hendaus__> anyone friend with amule?
[04:16] <Uff1> Hm, it says Intel x86 :P
[04:16] <Uff1> But I have amd...
[04:16] <jrib> !amule | hendaus__
[04:16] <gdb> And?
[04:16] <ubotu> hendaus__: amule: client for the eD2k and Kad networks, like eMule. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.1.3-1 (edgy), package size 1239 kB, installed size 3368 kB
[04:16] <jrib> Uff1: it will work
[04:16] <Coffeegrindah> it['s still x86 arch.
[04:16] <fruitbag`> Toma-, thanks, sir...
[04:16] <fruitbag`> I'll do these.
[04:16] <Uff1> Okok, I\ll have to trust you :)
[04:16] <jrib> Uff1: well try the livecd first :)
[04:16] <gaspipe1> does x-shockwave-flash work on firefox?
[04:17] <jrib> !shockwave | gaspipe1
[04:17] <hendaus__> jrib, i am using amule2.1.3 but it shows for me kad(firewalled) and sometimes off
[04:17] <ubotu> gaspipe1: Shockwave is currently only available for Windows. To run it under !Wine, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Shockwave
[04:17] <Toma-> fruitbag`: no probs. another alternative it to look over at happypenguin.org and see if you can find another stable quake port
[04:17] <Toma-> gah
[04:17] <Uff1> livecd_
[04:17] <Uff1> livecd?
[04:17] <Shadowpillar> what are the best kind of wireless cards for linux?
[04:17] <jrandolph> sorry if this is a silly question, but i'm trying to install ati drivers on ubuntu, and i just can't figure out how to do it. will trying all these things on kubuntu change anything? or is the underlying architecture so similar that it won't matter
[04:17] <Shadowpillar> atheros has left me a little, meh.
[04:17] <preaction> Shadowpillar: none :p
[04:17] <Coffeegrindah> Uff1: just download.. it's the one you saw

[04:17] <eck> Shadowpillar: integrated intel
[04:17] <Shadowpillar> what about broadcom?
[04:17] <eck> _definitely_ not broadcom
[04:17] <Uff1> Hehe.
[04:18] <benzi> hello
[04:18] <jrib> hendaus__: ok, you should ask that question then.  If no one knows here, you might want to try support that's directed more at amule
[04:18] <benzi> whats up
[04:18] <gaspipe1> jrib: thanx but wine doesn't work using 64bit
[04:18] <jrib> gaspipe1: it does if you setup a chroot for it
[04:18] <benzi> I have a question
[04:18] <hendaus__> jrib,  nobody answer :(
[04:18] <jrib> !chroot | gaspipe1

[04:19] <Shadowpillar> then try running it :)
[04:19] <jrib> Shadowpillar: will that really give you a working installation of wine on 64bit?
[04:19] <jrandolph> hi benzi
[04:19] <benzi> hello
[04:19] <jrandolph> but i probably can't help you
[04:19] <Shadowpillar> that's all I did and it worked beautifully

[04:19] <benzi> thanks
[04:19] <nipplesrulz> hey
[04:20] <Shadowpillar> and some 32 bit alsa libs iirc
[04:20] <nipplesrulz> could not having an 80 pin cable connected to hdd's corrupt the data ?
[04:20] <jrandolph> will installing drivers for kubuntu be any different from installing drivers for ubuntu?... specifically ati drivers
[04:20] <nipplesrulz> jrandolph not realy
[04:20] <gaspipe1> jrib: hmmm this sounds like 6 more months of expeirence b4 i try that...lol
[04:20] <benzi> I just wanted to let you guys know that i updated to the beryl 2.0 and everything is working great
[04:20] <nipplesrulz> installing some of the nice effects, sure. the vid drivers themselves, notsomuch
[04:20] <gaspipe1> Shadowpillar: whats all the x's?

[04:22] <flake> i thought my home directory was clean until I did checked show the hidden files - i see a bunch of hidden config folders for all teh stuff I've installed
[04:22] <SurfnKid> how do I copy files from a remote machine to my local one using scp?
[04:22] <Coffeegrindah> any one know where I can find a little help with live persistance, (other than a wiki cause I got it *working*)
[04:22] <jrandolph> i'm not exactly sure... i really just want something to work. every time i run the fglrxinfo command after installing the drivers it only returns info about mesa
[04:22] <IndyGunFreak> i'll tr it, sure.
[04:22] <VeganChick> I can't install gtk+
[04:23] <jrandolph> instead of ati... and glxgears always runs slow

[04:23] <flake> not that I'm complaining, I learn something every day
[04:23] <omeil> through gaim
[04:23] <VeganChick> jrib, how do I use it then?
[04:24] <eck> gtk+ is not an application
[04:24] <jrib> VeganChick: it's used everytime you use a gtk application.  It's responsible for the widgets (buttons, progress bars, etc...).  What are you trying to do?
[04:24] <jrandolph> i have an ADM64, but ubuntu is 32 bit... should this cause any problems with ati driverfs?
[04:24] <jrandolph> drivers
[04:24] <gdb> jrandolph: no
[04:24] <VeganChick> trying to modify those widgets
[04:24] <jrib> VeganChick: do you just want to theme them?

[04:25] <pseudosig> anyone know of a driver that'll work for nvidia's 650i mobo chipset?
[04:25] <VeganChick> jrib, I want to modify an engine. (sorry, my words aren't working tonight...)
[04:26] <jrib> VeganChick: I'm not sure I understand what you want to do.  You want to get source code, edit it, and compile it?  Or are you just trying to change the way things look?
[04:27] <cerealkiller219> =0

[04:33] <hendaus__> jrib, sorry i mean on amule?
[04:33] <madman91> HEYheyhey... how do i make cdparanoia make logs?
[04:33] <jrib> hendaus__: sorry, I don't use amule
[04:33] <Coffeegrindah> should I even bother attemptind to bang it out with this USBLive install or should I switch distro's?
[04:34] <dimeotane> when I plug in my usb drive it mounts my ext3 partition automatically but without read write permissions.  Shouldn't usb hard disks automount with read write permissions?
[04:34] <eck> madman91: you write a patch :-)
[04:34] <dimeotane> I it mounts without write permissions sry
[04:34] <dimeotane> but I can read it
[04:34] <jrandolph> i'm still having problems with getting ati drivers to work... i have followed a lot of different sets of instructions, and they all seem to get me to the same place. whats the next step of support? going to the ubuntu forums and work on it with other people over the course of a few days? is there something faster/easier i can try before that?
[04:34] <hendaus__> jrib,  ok thanx
[04:34] <Qlippoth> what exactly is xorg.conf? im reading the part about installing ati drivers and im kind of lost
[04:34] <jrib> dimeotane: change the permissions using chmod/chown
[04:34] <jrib> !permissions | dimeotane
[04:34] <ubotu> dimeotane: 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
[04:35] <bruenig> dimeotane, what is it formatted as, the usb drive that is
[04:35] <eck> Qlippoth: it's the file that the X server (the thing that provides you with a graphical interface) uses to read its configuration settings
[04:35] <dimeotane> bruenig: two partitions that it automounts: one NTFS (read only) and ext3 (read only)  but I would have thought with write permisions
[04:36] <bruenig> dimeotane, linux cannot write to ntfs by default
[04:36] <dimeotane> yea but the ext3 I mean
[04:36] <madman91> eck: lol.. what language would i do that in?
[04:36] <eck> probably C
[04:36] <vic> ihello room
[04:36] <bruenig> dimeotane, I thought you were talking about thumbdrive, are you talking about a hdd
[04:37] <dimeotane> howdy vic
[04:37] <dimeotane> yup sata
[04:37] <eck> i don't think it would be that hard if you want to learn some linux hacking, you'd just have to put in some calls to syslog
[04:37] <vic> doin allright
[04:37] <bruenig> dimeotane, ok paste your /etc/fstab
[04:37] <bruenig> !paste
[04:37] <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)
[04:37] <Qlippoth> so in making my ati drivers work properly, i have to edit the xorg.conf?
[04:37] <vic> does anyone know how to disable fsck on startup?
[04:37] <eck> Qlippoth: you need to edit the xorg.conf to tell the X server to use a different driver for the video card
[04:38] <eck> vic: use tune2fs
[04:38] <Qlippoth> okay, um... how do i open the xorg.conf? :p sorry
[04:38] <vic> k ... lemme try that
[04:38] <Coffeegrindah> I give up..  there's nowhere to find enough info on live persistance... bah.. different distro it is
[04:38] <bruenig> Qlippoth, gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:39] <vic> any specific parameter that i should provide with tune2fs?
[04:39] <eck> Coffeegrindah: i don't think that it is offered by many distributions, good luck
[04:39] <dimeotane> bruenig: my /etc/fstab has no entry for a usb hard drive /dev/sdb1  ... I doesn't need to usually for any of my hard drive that I plug in and it autodetects
[04:39] <Coffeegrindah> eck: I know.. that's the problem.. those it is.. well suck
[04:39] <eck> vic: i'm not sure off the top of my head, but there is an option to set the number of boots before a fsck that you can set to 0 to disable it (it's in the man page)
[04:40] <Qlippoth> great, thanks :D
[04:40] <vic> k ... thanks eck
[04:40] <bruenig> dimeotane, well I don't know what it is mounting as then. If it is mounting with defaults, then you should be able to edit the permissions for the ext3 and have those edits stick each and everytime you plug it in
[04:40] <jrib> dimeotane: ext3 is a filesystem that retains information about permissions, just change them to whatever you want as usual
[04:41] <Qlippoth> it says its read only and user is root, what do i do? sorry this is the first time i handled linux and ive had it on for only about an hour
[04:41] <billy> what's crackin' humanoids?
[04:41] <mwalling_> i have a problem with x... i had a power failure today after 45 days uptime. when i rebooted my maximum resolution was 800x600. i looked in /etc/x11/xorg.conf and the old settings were still there. this presists over a reboot too.
[04:42] <michael_the_choi> Why would my autoindent in vim be failing any time I type #?
[04:42] <cerealkiller219> Qlippoth: sounds like we're having the same problem
[04:42] <cerealkiller219> i had to type: fsck in read only mode then i was able to log in and fix my xorg.conf
[04:42] <jrib> michael_the_choi: what does it do?  start at the beginning of the line?
[04:42] <dimeotane> thx bruenig and jrib.. will try
[04:42] <eck> Qlippoth: did you run gedit with gksu in front?
[04:42] <Qlippoth> cerealkiller219: hehe.
[04:43] <eck> Qlippoth: you need to invoke it from the command line with gksu to launch gedit running as the root user
[04:43] <michael_the_choi> jrib: it indents after I hit return, but as soon as I type '#' to start a comment, it jumps it all back to the first column
[04:43] <Qlippoth> eck: how do you run those things?
[04:43] <AzMoo> What's the package for make?
[04:43] <Qlippoth> ah okay let me try that
[04:43] <eck> Qlippoth: open up a terminal, and run 'gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[04:44] <dimeotane> do I edit the permissions for the folder /media/500gig   that I mounted it on? or on  /dev/sdb1
[04:44] <Coffeegrindah> I'm out.. It looks as if I've got a long night of headscratching to do ....
[04:44] <eck> dimeotane: the mount point
[04:44] <jrib> michael_the_choi: someone in #vim might know off the top of their head, but what indent options do you have in your vimrc?
[04:44] <lkthomas> guys, is it have any light weight of powerpoint editor ?
[04:44] <jrib> michael_the_choi: maybe 'cindent'?
[04:44] <mwalling_> i have a problem with x... i had a power failure today after 45 days uptime. when i rebooted my maximum resolution was 800x600. i looked in /etc/x11/xorg.conf and the old settings were still there. this persists over a reboot too. is there a way to run something like a dpkg-reconfigure for xorg?
[04:45] <michael_the_choi> jrib: if you don't know, I'll check over there. ;-)  I have "set autoindent" and  "set smartindent"
[04:45] <billy> mwalling_ sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:45] <eck> lkthomas: you have to use the openoffice one
[04:45] <Beta-guy> I need help I eth1 only has an ipv6 I need an ipv4 address from eth1
[04:45] <michael_the_choi> jrib: and if it matters, I'm doing python.
[04:45] <shmeelAway> any1 here use kiba-dock?
[04:45] <dimeotane> eck:  so i do a (I'm guessing here )  sudo chmod 777 /media/500gig
[04:45] <eck> michael_the_choi: i had that problem too, if you find out the solution let me know :-)
[04:45] <billy> shmeelAway:  kept messing with Beryl for me.
[04:45] <jrib> michael_the_choi: I only have autoindent, no smartindent
[04:46] <eck> chmod -R (if the filesystem is not fat/ntfs)
[04:46] <phewl> how do you unrar a movie thats in parts like .r0x
[04:46] <eck> if the FS is fat/ntfs you need to set it as a mount option
[04:46] <Montaro> phewl: unrar the .rar file and the rest should come too ;)
[04:46] <michael_the_choi> jrib: I don't know what I did. ;-) Somehow, a couple nights ago, I had it highlighting my syntax, and indenting itself properly in accordance with python.  Then yesterday it just *stopped*.  Obviously I did something. ;-)
[04:47] <Funkmon> O_O
[04:47] <mneptok> nipplesrulz: hmm?
[04:47] <cerealkiller219> :( i type: fglrxinfo and it says: unable to open display :0
[04:48] <cerealkiller219> any ideas?
[04:48] <eck> cerealkiller219: echo $DISPLAY
[04:48] <my-kairi> need help
[04:49] <eck> make sure it is correct
[04:49] <billy> my-kairi:  what's up?
[04:49] <my-kairi> newbie here
[04:49] <cerealkiller219> eck: it didnt show anything  ?
[04:49] <xeneize> An easy question: would you please tell me if there are packages for Gnome 2.18 in ubuntu. I meant official, and stable packages, I know its a very recent version of Gnome, however I saw there are some packages for Ubuntu
[04:49] <my-kairi> accidentally used mv command without destination directory n now all my files are gone
[04:49] <eck> cerealkiller219: well that's the problem? are you in a graphical environment?
[04:49] <cerealkiller219> no not right now
[04:49] <eck> cerealkiller219: well then it won't work
[04:49] <my-kairi> how can i recover it back?
[04:49] <cerealkiller219> =\
[04:50] <mwalling_> billy: thanks, i'm going to try a reboot unless there is an easy way to reload the x conf file
[04:50] <cerealkiller219> im in recovery mode :X
[04:50] <eck> you can't run a graphical program in a console
[04:50] <phewl> Montaro, there is no .rar file its just a bunch like blah.r00 blah.r02
[04:50] <eck> billy: you can restart X11 with ctrl-alt-backspace
[04:50] <jrib> phewl: try unraring the first one
[04:50] <my-kairi> help..
[04:50] <eck> err, that is to mwalling
[04:50] <cerealkiller219> it will boot up but wont display anything most likely because i installed the driver incorrectly

[04:51] <eck> cerealkiller219: well then you need to fix it at the command line
[04:51] <eck> i hope you made backups :-)
[04:51] <docd> phewl: where's the .rar? :)
[04:51] <billy> my-kairi:  you used the mv command without a destination and now you cannot find your files?
[04:51] <Veronica-Bot> j #ubuntu-es
[04:51] <my-kairi> yes
[04:52] <cafuego_> phewl: Sorry, did you want help pirating video content?
[04:52] <Veronica-Bot> sorry
[04:52] <jmatus> when i run a php page I get the following errors.  Warning: Unknown: failed to open stream: Permission denied in Unknown on line 0

[04:52] <jmatus> any ideas
[04:52] <cafuego_> jmatus: Fix the permissions.
[04:52] <phewl> cafuego, nope :)
[04:52] <cerealkiller219> grrr still wont work
[04:52] <cafuego_> chmod 644 info.php

[04:52] <jmatus> execute all
[04:52] <cerealkiller219> eck: how can i fix it at the command line
[04:53] <orehon> Who are using ndiswrapper module for wireless?
[04:53] <cerealkiller219> im not entirely sure what my problem is
[04:53] <my-kairi> and there no output
[04:53] <morpheus74> Hi.  I'm a newer Ubuntu/Linux user, and I'm having some trougble with my wireless connection.
[04:53] <my-kairi> but all the files in there are gone
[04:53] <Qlippoth> im slowly getting it: so most of the things will be run through the command line?
[04:53] <Qlippoth> like editing and such?
[04:53] <my-kairi> including directories
[04:53] <billy> my-kairi:  I'm not sure if you zapped them or not.  have you performed a search for them?
[04:54] <my-kairi> yes
[04:54] <Scorched> Hello.
[04:54] <bruenig> Qlippoth, command line is easiest especially for the purpose of this channel because it is easier to give you a command then tell you to click this and then that and then that etc.
[04:54] <cafuego_> phewl: Google says you did. Please don't. That's not what the channel is for.
[04:54] <mwalling_> billy, eck: thanks works now
[04:54] <my-kairi> fyi, its a mounted ntfs volume
[04:54] <billy> mwalling_ ; glad to help, my hommie.
[04:54] <my-kairi> auto-mounted using ntfs-3g
[04:54] <my-kairi> which i installed it from automatix
[04:55] <my-kairi> can it be recovered from an ntfs mounted volume?
[04:55] <my-kairi> oh my oh my oh my
[04:55] <Scorched> I have a kind of stupid question.  Is kernel version dependant on Ubuntu version?  I mean if I wanted to update to newest kernerl version, would it cause compatibility problems with Dapper?
[04:55] <cafuego_> Scorched: yes
[04:55] <michael_the_choi> eck: :set cindent
[04:55] <morpheus74> I had my wireless working fine at home, but I'm now at another location and cannot get it working.  Any ideas?
[04:55] <my-kairi> im dead
[04:55] <billy> my-kairi:  I'm sorry but I don't know how to handle your problem.  Wish I could help more.  :(  I'm a noob myself.
[04:56] <my-kairi> *sigh*
[04:56] <Scorched> Are other distros the same way?
[04:56] <my-kairi> its ok
[04:56] <hackel> How can I stop ndiswrapper from loading at boot?  I've added it to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, yet it always is loaded automatically.
[04:56] <my-kairi> thanx for lending out a hand tho
[04:56] <cafuego_> Scorched: Utilities use for module loading and various other things would require updating too.
[04:56] <billy> my-kairi:  well, sometimes we learn the hard way.  I've done the same sort of thing myself.  Don't be too hard on yourself.
[04:56] <cafuego_> Scorched: Yup
[04:56] <my-kairi> anyone else have any ideas?
[04:56] <my-kairi> please..
[04:56] <Scorched> Thanks.
[04:56] <my-kairi> i know..
[04:57] <my-kairi> but i cant lose this now
[04:57] <cafuego_> Scorched: Feisty (out soon) will have ekrnel 2.6.20
[04:57] <eck> michael_the_choi: thanks, i though that was only for c/c++
[04:57] <my-kairi> i just migrated to ubuntu coz windows gave me alot of problems
[04:57] <cafuego_> Scorched: You cna always *try* and see... turns out 2.6.20.3 runs OK on my Debian Sarge machine.
[04:57] <Qlippoth> my-kairi: same here :p
[04:57] <michael_the_choi> eck: that's what I would have thought to; but it's preventing the failed indent!
[04:57] <noodles12> !kernel
[04:57] <ubotu> 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
[04:57] <Scorched> Unfortunately I have a Powerbook G4, so Feisty isn't really an option for me.
[04:57] <my-kairi> heh
[04:57] <xeneize> Do I need to run festy in order to use Gnome 2.18 ?
[04:57] <preaction> my-kairi: to let you know, the * is globbed by Bash, so in fact what probably happened is all the files got moved to the last file in that directory. the problem is, of course, that the last file is probably not a directory
[04:57] <my-kairi> all bcause of beryl
[04:57] <cafuego_> Scorched: Do use `kernel-package' though.
[04:58] <cafuego_> Scorched: Howso?
[04:58] <michael_the_choi> eck: do you do python with it then?
[04:58] <eck> michael_the_choi: a little bit, not so much recently
[04:58] <my-kairi> preaction: so how to solve it?
[04:58] <preaction> my-kairi: ls -lA /directory <- shows nothing?
[04:58] <billy> The love of beryl is the root of many evils.
[04:58] <Scorched> Official support for the PPC architecture was pulled.  I suppose there will be a Feisty community supported version though.
[04:58] <cafuego_> Scorched: *after* feisty
[04:59] <Scorched> I tried installing Herd 5, but I got a kernel panic.
[04:59] <cafuego_> Scorched: Case in point: it runs fine on my iBook g4 :-)
[04:59] <my-kairi> wait up.. i try it
[04:59] <cafuego_> Scorched: Yes, kernel 2.6.20-9 is not the PPCs friend.
[04:59] <cafuego_> Scorched: The latest update fixed the problem, though.
[04:59] <eck> michael_the_choi: now you just need to find out how to make foldmethod=indent not suck
[04:59] <Scorched> What update?
[04:59] <cafuego_> Scorched: that said, just wait until feisty is stable <heh>
[04:59] <michael_the_choi> eck: I'll work on that *LOL!*
[05:00] <my-kairi> the /directory, i have to change to it to the directory that ie mved, right?
[05:00] <my-kairi> ls: /directory: No such file or directory
[05:00] <cafuego_> Scorched: I ran a debian 2.6.18 kernel for a while coz the feisty one was broken. 2.6.20-10 seems to be fine, though.
[05:00] <michael_the_choi> eck: I had *something* I did a while ago that had it indenting according to python syntax- and I don't have any idea what. ;-)
[05:00] <preaction> my-kairi: yes, please do
[05:00] <billy> is there a shortcut to print the name of the person who last addressed you?
[05:00] <arfy> hi al. Currently I'm running msn, and use it to talk to people using voice chat on msn. However, I want to be able to voice chat from linux, preferably something cross platform so my friend can just run windows. what's a recomended route?
[05:00] <Scorched> I'm extremely impressed with Ubuntu's native powerbook support.
[05:00] <Qlippoth> hmm, odd. i just installed the update and now i cant see my buttons ie. applications, power etc.
[05:00] <preaction> arfy: skype, or maybe amsn?
[05:01] <drIcX> when i tried to connect, wvdial types "no carrier" i already put carrier check = no on wvdial.conf... and still doing the same... what should i do?
[05:01] <Scorched> Wireless has been the major problem.  But I've got it working mostly with the bcm43xx-fwcutter proggie.
[05:01] <cafuego_> Scorched: I've made pretty bcm43xx-firmware ubuntu packages.
[05:01] <docd> what was the default runlevel of ubuntu, pls?
[05:01] <asc> 2
[05:01] <docd> tnx
[05:01] <preaction> docd: 5, but why?
[05:01] <cafuego_> Tested and working with the bcm4306 I have
[05:02] <preaction> no wait, 5 is restart
[05:02] <Scorched> I think a problem I've had with it so far though is if I don't de-active my ethernet connection, i can't get any network response.
[05:02] <cafuego_> if a bit slow sometimes
[05:02] <arfy> preaction: thanks, will do some reserach in to amsn. Also 've herd that gizmo project runs on both platforms too.
[05:02] <preaction> arfy: but seriously, skype rocks
[05:02] <docd> so 2 is corrext?
[05:02] <my-kairi> preaction:shud i change to /media/sda5/ directory?
[05:02] <Maul555> where can i find a good resource on installing Radeon drivers for Edgy?
[05:02] <preaction> my-kairi: yes
[05:02] <my-kairi> well.. not to avail
[05:02] <dudicus> WaZzzzZUp
[05:02] <cafuego_> docd: 2. Changing it will not make X stop satrting at bootup.
[05:02] <my-kairi> no such directory
[05:02] <arfy> preaction: lol, skype is ok, especially for file transfers, compared to msn
[05:02] <preaction> my-kairi: replace /directory with whatever directory you screwed up
[05:02] <my-kairi> yes
[05:02] <my-kairi> did dat
[05:03] <preaction> my-kairi: then go one directory up
[05:03] <preaction> my-kairi: why were you doing things in the terminal, anyway?
[05:03] <my-kairi> ls: /mysite: No such file or directory
[05:03] <docd> cafuego_: i'm not stupid. i know that. ;)
[05:03] <Maul555> anyone: where can i find a good resource on installing Radeon drivers for Edgy?
[05:03] <my-kairi> now i on /media
[05:03] <docd> its just for startup scripts
[05:03] <cafuego_> docd: just thought I'd mention it, as that's why most people want to change initdefault.
[05:03] <my-kairi> now im on /media
[05:03] <preaction> my-kairi: ... the complete path. the computer does not know what you mean, it does what you say
[05:03] <cafuego_> docd: Aah, ok.
[05:03] <Scorched> Do you know of any resolution to that cafuego?
[05:04] <preaction> my-kairi: again, WHY were you doing things on the terminal?
[05:04] <docd> cafuego_: no offense
[05:04] <variant> my-kairi: / represents hte top of the filesystem tree
[05:04] <cafuego_> Scorched: Nope.. but then I don't ever have ethernet plugged in when I sue wifi.
[05:04] <newhere> hi all
[05:04] <billy> !hi | newhere
[05:04] <ubotu> newhere: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:04] <Scorched> Actually, it's unplugged and I still have to de-activate it
[05:04] <Maul555> billy:  remember that nvidia problem the other day?
[05:05] <newhere> billy: thanks
[05:05] <Scorched> Maybe it's because I had it plugged in when I connected to wireless, then disconnected it.
[05:05] <variant> my-kairi: what you trying to do exactly?
[05:05] <cafuego_> Oddity, I've not had that problem - that I know of.
[05:05] <billy> Maul555:  yeah.  what's up with your bad self?  Still playin' Sid?

[05:05] <mon^rch> can someone help me setup sharing a dir(s) by making a symlink to a folder I want to share please???
[05:05] <billy> newhere:  you should try the #ubuntu-effects channel.
[05:05] <Scorched> I was on edgy, but there were a few problems I think.  Ethernet seemed kind of slow. maybe that was just servers i was trying to access though.
[05:05] <newhere> ok, thanks very much
[05:06] <dudicus> AHhhhhhhhHHhhHhhhhhHhHHhHHhHHH
[05:06] <Scorched> so i'm on dapper now
[05:06] <billy> your welcome newhere.

[05:16] <Scorched> does apt-get/synaptic compile the packages it downloads, or are they just binaries?
[05:16] <bruenig> Maul555, you realize they are the same factoid yet you still complain when I use !nvidia instead of !ati, why?
[05:16] <preaction> Scorched: binaries
[05:16] <ifree> asc: pardon my inexperience again, i invoke the cmd line console by alt+f12, then tupe in sudo gedit /boot/grub/*lst is it?
[05:16] <Maul555> because, it should be !vid-driver or something if thats the case
[05:16] <Scorched> can you use a flag to tell them to compile?
[05:17] <ifree> asc: i m not very used to cmd line
[05:17] <FarrisG> Any help figuring out why mounting a share from a Windows 2003 box via fstab using smbfs or cifs is so slow?
[05:17] <Scorched> or is there not point to compile?
[05:17] <blanky> ifree: yeah, sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[05:17] <bruenig> ifree, if you are in gnome, you can just go to applications>accessories>terminal
[05:17] <bruenig> or is f12 a builtin shortcut for that
[05:17] <preaction> Scorched: no. you can apt-get source, and apt-get build-dep thought
[05:17] <asc> ifree: That should do it.  I'm not sure about the alt-F12, but it's also in the applications menu somewhere.
[05:17] <ifree> bruenig: that's very clear
[05:17] <Scorched> is there any advantage?  i used to use gentoo, guess i have some mentality left from that.

[05:25] <billy> mr_grump5 : did you compile a kernel from source, perhaps?
[05:25] <FlyingSquirrel31> What do I have to do to configure apache2 to work behind NAT?
[05:25] <Kevad> Howdy.  I just upgraded my laptop to edgy and now I find that after I wake it up from sleep the audio device is in use.  Any idea why?
[05:25] <preaction> my-kairi: it was working and you stopped it!
[05:25] <my-kairi> preaction:what do u mean?
[05:26] <asc> It's not that important, just a little more convenient.
[05:26] <my-kairi> no i doesnt
[05:26] <variant> my-kairi: lol, when it was "standing still" it was moving the files.. probably some of them are now stored in /var/www/
[05:26] <my-kairi> i waited like forever
[05:26] <variant> my-kairi: so now run ls /var/www
[05:26] <preaction> my-kairi: what does "like forever" mean?
[05:26] <my-kairi> i have done ls /var/www
[05:26] <my-kairi> nothing is there
[05:26] <preaction> my-kairi: sudo ls /var/www how about
[05:26] <ifree> acs: thank you very much acs. I am deeply appreciated.
[05:26] <variant> my-kairi: did it prompt you for your password?
[05:26] <ifree> asc: Probably, i will go back if anything goes wrong.
[05:26] <tues> soooo uh which is more fun/ better on ubuntu beryl or xgl/compiz?
[05:27] <variant> tues: ask in #ubuntu-effects
[05:27] <asc> ifree: Good luck.  I'll be here for a while, in case it doesn't work quite right.
[05:27] <billy> tues: never used xgl/compiz, but ubuntu beryl is sweet.
[05:27] <my-kairi> only this appear -> apache2-default  application  CodeIgniter  joomla  test.php
[05:27] <mr_grump5> billy:i tried a distribution upgrade to fiesty fawn..with 1 min remaining some my system had a restart..now i have endup with these

[05:28] <my-kairi> yeah

[05:28] <variant> Comrade_Sergei: mv

[05:28] <bruenig> Comrade_Sergei, mv
[05:28] <ifree> asc: i m using my sch comp rite now. my laptop s at home >.<
[05:28] <billy> mr_grump5:  you cannot load your older kernels?
[05:28] <variant> Comrade_Sergei: mv /from /to
[05:28] <bruenig> Yggdrasil, yeah what are you doing
[05:28] <my-kairi> seriously, is there no way to recover it again?
[05:29] <ifree> asc: anyway, thanks again. Probably bug you tomorrow =)
[05:29] <Comrade_Sergei> varient where do i put the file into there?
[05:29] <mr_grump5> billy:the older kernal boots and after login it turns blank
[05:29] <Yggdrasil> i have a small script . that turns off my network card and turns it back on. i would like to do it every 16 minutes
[05:29] <Yggdrasil> 15
[05:29] <asc> ifree: Ah, righto.  Well, there's always somebody in here who'll know how do do that.
[05:29] <bruenig> Yggdrasil, does it require root
[05:29] <Yggdrasil> yes
[05:29] <my-kairi> y does this hav to happen to me??
[05:29] <billy> mr_grump5: can you boot into recovery mode?
[05:29] <my-kairi> curse u bill gates!!
[05:29] <variant> my-kairi: probably you could get parts of most of the files back but possibly not with the file names and probably not all of them.. the longer the partition is mounted the less likely it is
[05:29] <mr_grump5> ye
[05:29] <cyrenity> please recommend me a gfx card for my feisty desktop
[05:30] <bruenig> Yggdrasil, ok what is the path to the script
[05:30] <cyrenity> the one i have doesnt work ..
[05:30] <mr_grump5> billy:on pld kernal yes
[05:30] <my-kairi> ill condemn u for eternity!
[05:30] <adjioev> I'm trying to download photos from my camera Canaon Ixus, and i get following error: "An error occurred in the io-library ('Could not claim the USB device'): Could not claim interface 0 (Operation not permitted). Make sure no other program or kernel module (such as sdc2xx, stv680, spca50x) is using the device and you have read/write access to the device.". Any ideas?

[05:30] <mneptok> cyrenity: USA?
[05:30] <variant> my-kairi: i asked you to do something which you have not yet done anyway

[05:30] <my-kairi> what was it
[05:30] <variant> my-kairi: tell me the unique name of one of the files that you were trying to move
[05:30] <cyrenity> AGP
[05:30] <my-kairi> i cant think straight
[05:30] <mneptok> cyrenity: stand by
[05:30] <cyrenity> ok

[05:31] <Beta-guy> I really stuck how do I configure eth1 to use inet?
[05:31] <my-kairi> mysites
[05:31] <bruenig> Yggdrasil, do gksu gedit /etc/crontab and add the following line before the # at the end: 0,15,30,45 * * * * root /home/yggdrasil/netrestart.sh
[05:31] <variant> my-kairi: please don't press return liket hat..
[05:31] <my-kairi> err.. like what?
[05:31] <billy> mr_grump5:  I'm not sure how to clear the incomplete kernel from your system, but, if I were you, I'd simply login to the old kernel, wipe the incomplete kernel off of the grub menu, and retry upgrading to Feisty, if you're still amind to do it?
[05:31] <variant> my are you root now?
[05:31] <my-kairi> u mean, type in 1 line?
[05:31] <bulmer> Beta-guy: whats an inet?
[05:31] <variant> my-kairi: correct
[05:31] <my-kairi> yes i am
[05:32] <mneptok> cyrenity: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127128
[05:32] <Beta-guy> ipv4
[05:32] <variant> my-kairi: so run updatedb
[05:32] <my-kairi> i am root and proud of it
[05:32] <variant> my-kairi: and let it finnish
[05:32] <my-kairi> okay wait up
[05:32] <cyrenity> thanks
[05:32] <bruenig> my-kairi, yeah you see where prancing around as root got you
[05:32] <Yggdrasil> breunig gksu ?
[05:32] <my-kairi> running.. please wait
[05:32] <bulmer> Beta-guy: whats the problem using network-manager?
[05:32] <my-kairi> what else shud i be when i hav beryl theme inside?
[05:32] <Yggdrasil> bruenig gksu ? command not found.
[05:32] <mr_grump5> billy:how to wipe off  incomplete kernal?
[05:33] <bruenig> Yggdrasil, do you have a gui?
[05:33] <mneptok> cyrenity: affordable, will work with the nVidia binary GeForce drivers, and is passively cooled. :)
[05:33] <stb> i've found keeping up an ubuntu box is too simple
[05:33] <Yggdrasil> no
[05:33] <Beta-guy> where can I find network-manager?
[05:33] <Maul555> mr_grump5:  get a damp cloth and some windex...
[05:33] <my-kairi> prancing is the best way to express it
[05:33] <variant> stb: yes, a little boring
[05:33] <bruenig> Yggdrasil, ok sudo nano /etc/crontab and then add that line
[05:33] <cyrenity> oh tahts cool
[05:33] <bruenig> Yggdrasil, or vim
[05:33] <Yggdrasil> ahh ok
[05:33] <Yggdrasil> gotcha
[05:33] <bruenig> whatever
[05:33] <my-kairi> variant:it done
[05:33] <Comrade_Sergei> how do i login as root?
[05:33] <Comrade_Sergei> i know its possible
[05:33] <billy> mr_grump5:  I'm not sure how to clean it from your system, but to get it off of the grub menu, open the menu.lst using `sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst`, find the name of the kernel and simple delete that entire section.
[05:33] <variant> my-kairi: now run slocate myipo
[05:34] <bruenig> !sudo | Comrade_Sergei you shouldn't but...
[05:34] <ubotu> Comrade_Sergei you shouldn't but...: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:34] <Maul555> Comrade_Sergei:  just use sudo
[05:34] <variant> my-kairi: assuming myipo is one of the folder names
[05:34] <mneptok> cyrenity: Windows will also be a lot snappier with that card
[05:34] <cyrenity> :)
[05:34] <my-kairi> shud i change to / first?
[05:34] <Comrade_Sergei> bruenig the sheer size of the command makes me want to just login as root is it possible
[05:34] <variant> my-kairi: no
[05:34] <billy> Comrade_Sergei:  there is no root login with Ubuntu.  You can reconfigure your system to do this, but it isn't advisable.
[05:34] <my-kairi> okay
[05:34] <stb> variant, so now what
[05:34] <bruenig> Comrade_Sergei, what command?
[05:34] <variant> stb: for what?
[05:34] <mr_grump5> billy:ok
[05:34] <Yggdrasil> bruenig done
[05:35] <bruenig> Yggdrasil, ok should be set
[05:35] <Maul555> cyrenity:  you want a snappy computer get ram, nothing else will make it snappy...  now, games is a diff story tho..
[05:35] <stb> variant: i've had as much fun as beryl will let me
[05:35] <Comrade_Sergei> bruenig sudo mv powertab.ttf /home/andrew/wine/drive_c/ProgramFiles/Power TabSoftware/Power Tab Editor1.7 /usr/share/fonts/wine
[05:35] <bruenig> Yggdrasil, syntax there is pretty self explanatory
[05:35] <billy> mr_grump5: personally, I would wait until Feisty is officially released.  But that's just one noob's two cents.
[05:35] <variant> stb: why are you telling me?
[05:35] <my-kairi> only got this -> /home/kairi/.nautilus/metafiles/ftp:%2F%2Fmyipo@myipo.citranet.com.my:21%2Fmadno.xml /home/kairi/.nautilus/metafiles/ftp:%2F%2Fmyipo@myipo.citranet.com.my:21.xml /home/kairi/myipo-madno.zip
[05:35] <Yggdrasil> ok gotcha so just add it to the crontab file , no need to relead anything ?
[05:35] <stb> variant, this isn't tech support?
[05:35] <cyrenity> u r right
[05:35] <Yggdrasil> gee thanks
[05:35] <kraypius> is it safe to allocate some free space from my ntfs patition to my ext3?
[05:35] <bruenig> Comrade_Sergei, why are there two locations?
[05:36] <quietFrank> hi all ... Im running a fresh install of edgy and have a dell widescreen monitor which I am having trouble configuring. I have 915resolution installed and its not listing my resolution
[05:36] <variant> my-kairi: is that one of the files?
[05:36] <my-kairi> nope
[05:36] <XxTRAINEExX> my apologies if I am asking out of turn... But does anyone know where network manager is located?  I have read about 40 articles on how to get my card to support WPA and it says use network manager. I checked in "add/remove programs" and its checked as if its installed... but i cant get in it
[05:36] <variant> my-kairi: anything to do with it at all?
[05:36] <Comrade_Sergei> bruenig i need to move it there to use power  tab editor via wine
[05:36] <phewl> Maul555, i have 1024mb of ram and my rig isnt snappy
[05:36] <mr_grump5> billy:i think it wan't the bug in fiesty...my UPS was faulty and restarted my system..
[05:36] <Maul555> phewl:  then you have a different problem
[05:36] <quietFrank> I have tried most of the things in the forums and all seem to result in a broken x
[05:36] <mikefoo> hey guys when switching out memory, and on power up of computer, system beeping and not booting, usually incompatible memory issue?
[05:36] <Comrade_Sergei> breunig and since that font dir is owned by root i need sudo
[05:36] <my-kairi> thats my previous backup of ONE of the missing folders, and an ftp thingy
[05:36] <billy> quietFrank:  I'm not able to achieve my monitor's optimum resolution either.  Sometimes we just have to deal with what we're given.  :)
[05:36] <mneptok> Maul555: a better video card certainly improves the performance of the GUI
[05:36] <phewl> Maul555, whats my problem ?
[05:36] <Maul555> phewl:  unless you are putting that computer under extraordinary stresses, you dont need any more ram
[05:37] <variant> my-kairi: so, you at least have backups of some of the stuff?
[05:37] <my-kairi> yup
[05:37] <phewl>  21:38:52 up 5 days,  4:56,  3 users,  load average: 2.51, 2.46, 2.05
[05:37] <Maul555> phewl:  give me info
[05:37] <my-kairi> but dat one has already obsolete
[05:37] <billy> mr_grump5:  yes, you're probably right.  That last post was just my opinion about distro upgrading at this early hour.  :)
[05:37] <quietFrank> billy: really, its pretty badly stretched
[05:37] <bruenig> Comrade_Sergei, ok but on that command are you trying to move the first two things to the third thing or what?
[05:37] <variant> my-kairi: great, all is not lost. unfortunatly the main folder is gone by the looks of things
[05:37] <variant> my-kairi: forever
[05:37] <Maul555> hardware/software/whats slow/when
[05:37] <phewl> its a 3.0 ghz p4 radeon 9600 pro vid card abit mobo
[05:37] <billy> quietFrank:  what resolution is it running currently?
[05:37] <my-kairi> *sigh*
[05:38] <Comrade_Sergei> no the powertab.tff to the wine fonts from the powertab dir
[05:38] <Maul555> phewl:  im running a 9600 pro, lol
[05:38] <phewl> lol
[05:38] <my-kairi> the weird thing is
[05:38] <billy> my-kairi:  in through the nose, out through the mouth.
[05:38] <quietFrank> a very stretched 1280x1024
[05:38] <bimberi> XxTRAINEExX: there should be an icon in your notificaton area (near the date/time at top right)- might look like a computer
[05:38] <bruenig> Comrade_Sergei, are you inside the powertab dir when you are making that command or not
[05:38] <quietFrank> should be 1680x1050
[05:38] <my-kairi> when the mv happens, there only one folder left
[05:38] <Comrade_Sergei> bruenig yes
[05:38] <my-kairi> seems like the folder were intact
[05:38] <variant> my-kairi: what?
[05:38] <Yggdrasil> bruenig how can i tell if its doing it ?
[05:38] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: thanks for the response... i see the little blinking computers like a network connection icon... i click it but there is nothing in here about creating a new network or WPA configuration
[05:38] <bruenig> Comrade_Sergei, then sudo mv powertab.ttf /usr/share/fonts/wine
[05:38] <billy> quietFrank:  fresh install?  have you `sudo apt-get upgrade` 'ed yet?
[05:38] <Comrade_Sergei> oh lol
[05:39] <my-kairi> theres still a folder exists in /media/sda5/www/
[05:39] <bruenig> Yggdrasil, don't know what your script does
[05:39] <homie> i've got a problem with dvd playback, probably anybody of you guys seen seen this before.. vlc (as well as mplayer and gxine) start playing the movie, but the sound has glitches and the image is constantly torn and shuffled; mplayer says that the vob is encrypted and that i need a libdvdcss library; how do i know that i actually have it? no signs of it in package manager :/
[05:39] <variant> my-kairi: and it's empty?
[05:39] <my-kairi> its /yui folder
[05:39] <phewl> Maul555, whats my problem ?
[05:39] <Yggdrasil> ok thanks
[05:39] <quietFrank> yeah
[05:39] <my-kairi> oh
[05:39] <Yggdrasil> its jsut ifupdown eth0 && ifup eth0 btw
[05:39] <my-kairi> my
[05:39] <my-kairi> god
[05:39] <Maul555> phewl:  whats slow tho
[05:39] <bruenig> Yggdrasil, if you could tell from that syntax, it will run it at 0 15 30 and 45 past the hour so be looking around then
[05:39] <variant> my-kairi: thats because you ctrl c'd the mv command before it finnished
[05:39] <my-kairi> variant
[05:39] <Yggdrasil> ifdown even
[05:39] <my-kairi> I LOVE YOU!
[05:39] <Yggdrasil> ok cool thanks

[05:40] <bimberi> XxTRAINEExX: that's probably the network monitor applet.  when you click on it is the window title "Connection Properties:..."?
[05:40] <my-kairi> when i did the mv, i didnt ctrl c it
[05:40] <asc> homie: You need to install it, it doesn't come with Ubuntu.  The VLC project has it in their repositories; if you add them to your repository list, you'll be able to install it from Synaptic.
[05:40] <my-kairi> hahahahahaha
[05:40] <my-kairi> it was moved in the yui folder all along!!!
[05:40] <my-kairi> hahahahahaha

[05:41] <Yggdrasil> bruenig..  http://valdez.bz/Gallery/albums/album06/100_0475.jpg i think the network card is malfunctioning after about 1.5 years in the elements....
[05:41] <asc> *homie
[05:41] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: so the network monitor is not up here it seems
[05:41] <bimberi> XxTRAINEExX: ok, that's not networkmanager.  open a terminal and do a 'ps auxw | grep nm-applet' to see if its running
[05:41] <bruenig> Yggdrasil, yeah that is not something I would recommend
[05:41] <asc> homie: Hmm, give me a second to work on that one.
[05:42] <bruenig> duct tape looks good though
[05:42] <Yggdrasil> whats that ?

[05:44] <b00gz> Anyone know of imaging software that will create a full system image while the system is booted up and running?
[05:44] <Maul555> phewl: also, what is your hdd?
[05:44] <homie> asc, seems to be done through System -- Software sources, "repositories" in package manager leads to there..
[05:44] <billy> quietFrank:  what video card are you using?
[05:44] <phewl> i got 2 80 gigs and 1 40
[05:44] <bruenig> b00gz, you can use dd if you want
[05:44] <bruenig> !backup | b00gz
[05:44] <ubotu> b00gz: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning
[05:45] <bruenig> !cloning
[05:45] <ubotu> To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type "dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages", move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type "sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade"
[05:45] <asc> homie: Okay, it looks like this should work -- start Synaptic, go to settings->repositories->third party and click the 'add' button.  In the blank, paste the line 'deb http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/debian sarge main'.  It's actually a repository for Debian, but it works with Ubuntu.  You can also use the guide at http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/12/04/libdvdcss2-and-w32codecs-for-ubuntu/, but I'm not familiar with that repository (VLC
[05:45] <asc> I trust).
[05:45] <luvkit> okay, I've downloaded the iso file from the ubuntu website, but when I try to boot from the CD it doesn't work.  It boots back to windows.
[05:45] <my-kairi> heh
[05:45] <Maul555> phewl:  are they high speed drives, normal ,or slow.. ex:  5400rpm, 7200, rpm, 10000+?
[05:45] <phewl> 7200
[05:45] <bruenig> luvkit, did you set your bios to boot from cd
[05:45] <luvkit> I've even disabled my hard drive so it wont.
[05:45] <luvkit> Yes.
[05:45] <homie> asc k, thanks a lot :)
[05:45] <bruenig> luvkit, you obviously didn't disable your harddrive or windows wouldn't boot
[05:46] <asc> homie: then I guess hit the 'reload' button and search for the lib
[05:46] <phewl> =] 
[05:46] <Maul555> phewl:   you cannot wait 5 measly seconds?
[05:46] <billy> luvkit:  did you run an md5sum?  (sorry if that's already been asked)
[05:46] <bruenig> luvkit, does it pause for a second as if it is reading the cd and then move on or does it just go as normal
[05:46] <b00gz> bruenig, Thanks!
[05:46] <Maul555> lol
[05:46] <phewl> lol
[05:46] <quietFrank> billy, umm that where im not so sure how do I find out ?
[05:46] <phewl> im just saying shit ran faster in winBLOWS =/
[05:46] <luvkit> I did disable it.  I went back and turned it on because it said there was no Operating System.
[05:46] <luvkit> I have not run md5sum
[05:47] <mistone> omg my moniter is twitching out
[05:47] <Maul555> i guess i cang help you, im running ubuntu with a quarter of the ram, off a 4500rpm laptop hdd, and an old athlon xp...
[05:47] <billy> quietFrank:  there's a command to display the video card only, but I cannot remember it.  Pastebin the output of the command `lspci` for me.  do you know how to use pastebin?
[05:47] <luvkit> Oddly, the CD is recognized when I run it in virtual pc, but it hasn't actually gotten to the desktop
[05:47] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: do i just post the link here for you?
[05:47] <oorza> can someone help me get mpd to work with dmix?
[05:47] <bimberi> XxTRAINEExX: yep
[05:47] <oorza> I have it set to output to dmix and my .asoundrc is correct
[05:47] <oorza> every other program that isn't mpd works great
[05:48] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10578/
[05:48] <billy> luvkit: it's always a good idea to check the md5sum of a large download.  if I were you, I would double check it against the official md5sum, just to be sure.
[05:48] <quietFrank> billy, just looked at the device manager says Intel 82865G Integrated graphics controlor
[05:48] <luvkit> @bruenig: It did pause, but nothing happened.
[05:48] <my-kairi> ermn
[05:48] <luvkit> billy, I can find that on the ubuntu website, right?
[05:48] <quietFrank> billy, its a dell box
[05:48] <witless> anyone care to recommend a good chess program for ubuntu?  player against computer?
[05:48] <my-kairi> can i ask app based questions here?
[05:49] <Marupa> I'm trying to make a 'virtual DJ' speak what I tell it to in a text editor.  Are there any text editors that have a 'speak text' feature?
[05:49] <billy> quietFrank:  excellent.  and when your reconfigured the Xserver, you selected one of the drivers that began with "i", correct?  Like i810, or something?
[05:49] <arrenlex> my-kairi: You can ask anything ubuntu-related. :)
[05:49] <my-kairi> okay
[05:49] <bimberi> XxTRAINEExX: hm, looks good. the line with 'nm-applet --sm-disable' indicates that it is running
[05:49] <luvkit> I join Maul555
[05:49] <my-kairi> err..
[05:49] <quietFrank> billy, yep
[05:49] <billy> luvkit:  yes.  the md5sums are almost always located immediately next to the download itself.  sometimes it's at the very top of a very long file list.  just look carefully; they're nearly always included.
[05:49] <my-kairi> what was it dat i want to ask
[05:49] <quietFrank> billy, i810
[05:49] <my-kairi> damn
[05:49] <Maul555> luvkit: use "/me <text>" to do that
[05:50] <mr_grump5> billy:still around>?
[05:50] <AzMoo> Is there a way I can allow a user to mount a samba share? It tells me that smbmnt must be setuid root for users to mount it, but when I set smbmnt as setuid root, it tells me smb based programs must not be set to setuid root, and my connection fails.
[05:50] <my-kairi> ah yes
[05:50] <billy> mr_grump5: yes.  I'm still here.  How is everything?

[06:01] <jlowell> hi folks, anyone running ubuntu on a turion x2?
[06:01] <EADG> Marupa: I honestly wouldn't know where to start. A more experianced user will have to sound off on that.
[06:02] <billy> Marupa:  sudo alsaconf.
[06:02] <billy> Marupa:  that doesn't work for everyone.  works for me though.  tell me if it returns command not found.
[06:02] <Marupa> billy: command not found.
[06:02] <Hyper-coo> I'm trying to install ubuntu amd64 6.10 using the livecd and it stops during fsck any one know if this is typical?
[06:02] <my-kairi> any other alternative beryl-based rooms?
[06:02] <mon^rch> no overheating... all my fans are "reasonably" clean and I keep the sid of my case open to cool it off because I have two hard disks
[06:02] <b00gz> What is the command from CLI to use free / used space on a hard drive?
[06:02] <bhavi> OK.... How to become a member of ubuntu member team?
[06:03] <buuyo> b00gz: df -h
[06:03] <billy> Marupa:  do you simply have no sound?
[06:03] <Marupa> I have sound, but only one thing can play at a time using ANY of ALSA, ESD, or dmix.
[06:03] <mon^rch> I think maybe beryl is crashing it
[06:03] <Bourne> I find the GTK/GNOME GUI a bit "funny"... it is slower than XP
[06:04] <mon^rch> no way Bourne... gnome is way faster
[06:04] <bimberi> !membership | bhavi
[06:04] <ubotu> bhavi: Want to become an Ubuntu member? Look at http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/newmember
[06:04] <billy> Marupa:  I think you need a special package do play multiple sound files at once.  have you downloaded and installed any such package via Synaptic?
[06:04] <Marupa> never heard of that package, billy.
[06:04] <arrenlex> billy: What are you running? alsaconf is part of the debian alsa-utils package. It doesn't exist in ubuntu.
[06:04] <Bourne> mon: the GUI flickers a lot
[06:04] <Bourne> mon^rch: the GUI flickers a lot
[06:04] <jlowell> anyone? what ubuntu should i get for my turion x2?
[06:05] <Maul555> mon^rch:  im manly a hardware guru, and a uber-windows power user, but a linux newb... so i shall pass this problem off to the linux gurus of this chat room
[06:05] <billy> Marupa:  I'm not really all that familiar, but look through the Synaptic Package Manager under the Multimedia section.  It's there somewhere.
[06:05] <Marupa> I just want things to be 'windowsish' for being able to play multiple things at once.
[06:05] <billy> arrenlex:  I had to compile the latest ALSA stuff from source for my Intel.  That's why alsaconf works for me.
[06:05] <arrenlex> billy: Ah. That's different.
[06:05] <mon^rch> :(

[06:07] <edgarin> and you?
[06:07] <Maul555> mon^rch:  have you had this problem during both before and after your vid driver installation, or just after, or just before?
[06:07] <mon^rch> I need a file sharing guru... I guess
[06:07] <billy> Hyper-coo:  are you asking if you can install using something besides a LiveCD?
[06:07] <jlowell> wow is there a channel where i can actually get an answer to my questions?
[06:07] <jlowell> for ubuntu
[06:07] <billy> edgarin;  I'm doing well.  is there something I or someone else can help you with?

[06:09] <b00gz> Hey guys, I have md0 md1 hde and hdg when I do fdisk -l ... I have software Raid 1 setup... What should I be backing up to get all of my data and my mbr?
[06:09] <Marupa> well, I found some alsa stuff on synaptic...I hope it all works.
[06:09] <mon^rch> edgy... but hey, I wanna try feisty... is it stable enough to do atm?
[06:09] <Marupa> I'll let you know after a reboot, if it's needed.
[06:09] <Maul555> mon^rch:  no
[06:09] <Maul555> !!!!
[06:09] <mon^rch> karp
[06:10] <jlowell> arrenlex: i dont know
[06:10] <Maul555> why not try a diff ftp client
[06:10] <Joshooa> !nvidia
[06:10] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:10] <Marupa> brb
[06:10] <jlowell> !turion
[06:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about turion - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:10] <mon^rch> I dunno, I hate to say this but my distro "feels" unstable
[06:10] <arrenlex> jlowell: I don't understand. You're asking which one you should get, but you don't know which ones there are? Isn't that like asking for advice on what ice-cream to buy before you get to the store?
[06:10] <Draco> morning all, I would like to find out if I copy my cupsd.conf file from one machine to another if that will be all thats needed to still enable printing to that machine ?
[06:11] <jlowell> arrenlex: if you refuse to help, why do the opposite?
[06:11] <Maul555> jlowell:  have you tried installing it.. chances are, ubuntu will recognize it and will be usable, i think anyways... give it a whirl...
[06:11] <arrenlex> jlowell: I don't refuse to help. I'd love to help you, if you had a question that could be answered.
[06:11] <jlowell> Maul555: very well
[06:11] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: that article doesnt have any other steps for me
[06:11] <mon^rch> hey, is there benefits to being an ubuntu member?
[06:11] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi:  i tried commenting out all the lines in /etc/network/interfaces and it took down all my network connections
[06:11] <Maul555> mon^rch:  you get to be cool
[06:12] <mon^rch> omg
[06:12] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: it seems network manager is running, but there are no icons or ways to get in to it
[06:12] <bimberi> XxTRAINEExX: did you add a notification area applet?
[06:12] <jlowell> arrenlex: you are not attempting to help, but attempting to make an example of me, so dont worry about it
[06:12] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: i didnt see instructions for that
[06:12] <billy> mon^rch:  Ubuntu membership guarantees that one will someday become rich, famous, and handsome.
[06:12] <Hyper-coo> i hate to troll here... but seriously. this is an easy question
[06:12] <billy> like Brad Pitt.
[06:13] <mon^rch> all I needs the money :D
[06:13] <Hyper-coo> livecd or some other method i don't know about
[06:13] <Maul555> FLY MON^RCH, FLY!!!!
[06:13] <Hyper-coo> which is easier and faster
[06:13] <billy> Hyper-coo:  try the alternate install CD's.
[06:13] <mon^rch> more like fallr, mon^rch fall
[06:13] <Maul555> mon^rch:  if you dont have money, then you can join the forum for free...
[06:13] <Hyper-coo> do they boot?
[06:13] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: it says you may need to add the notification to your bar... but it doesnt say how
[06:14] <joincamp> is there a configuration reason why ssh would be refused from outside connections but not local assuming port forwarding is setup correctly?
[06:14] <Draco> Hyper-coo they have to boot to install :)
[06:14] <billy> Hyper-coo:  Like a RedWing.
[06:14] <bimberi> XxTRAINEExX: right-click on the panel, select "Add to Panel..." choose the Notificatoin Area
[06:14] <Hyper-coo> crazier things have been made, draco
[06:14] <Draco> Hyper-coo indeed they have, LiveCD works pretty nicely though
[06:14] <b00gz> Hey guys, I have md0 md1 hde and hdg when I do fdisk -l ... I have software Raid 1 setup... What should I be backing up to get all of my data and my mbr?
[06:15] <mon^rch> (I love amaroK) !
[06:15] <bimberi> XxTRAINEExX: In the Utilities section, near the bottom
[06:15] <Hyper-coo> my livecd doesn't finish booting
[06:15] <Hyper-coo> it hangs doing a file system check or something like that
[06:16] <billy> Hyper-coo:  did you perfrom an md5sum check and a CD check?
[06:16] <liquiddoom> PTP with gphoto only works as root now
[06:16] <Hyper-coo> yeah i'd like to do those things but how?
[06:16] <Hyper-coo> the cd check is obvious
[06:16] <Hyper-coo> but md5sum?>
[06:16] <mon^rch> can someone tell me how to make a symlink that will have "everybody" privleges
[06:16] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: i added notification area
[06:16] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: just adds dotted lines to the top bar
[06:17] <wasabi> mon^rch: symlinks do not have permissions, the file they point at does
[06:17] <liquiddoom> For example, I have to use digikam/gthumb/gphotofs as root... and I really don't like doing that for obvious reason.
[06:17] <pixi> k8nSLiPCIe
[06:17] <billy> Hyper-coo:  in a terminal, go to the directory where the .iso file is.  type `sudo md5sum filename.iso`.  really you don't even have to type out the whole filename, simple type the beginning and press tab.  it's just that easy. :)
[06:17] <mon^rch> no... some users on my ftp can use the sym link and others cant
[06:17] <liquiddoom> Also, when I try using cp as root, I get "cp: command not found"
[06:17] <wasabi> billy, no need to sudo that.
[06:17] <Hyper-coo> i don't have a running linux instal
[06:17] <Hyper-coo> can't sudo anything yet
[06:18] <wasabi> mon^rch: I believe symlinks over FTP depend on the FTP client.
[06:18] <mon^rch> wanna try?
[06:18] <liquiddoom> Er, I meant cd
[06:18] <linked_> is this a proper place to ask about ubuntu+ati/fglrx+beryl issues, or is there another facility for that?
[06:18] <billy> wasabi:  Oh.  Nowadays I just about sudo everything so I don't have to retype it (or press up and <-).  :)
[06:18] <bimberi> XxTRAINEExX: hmm. open a terminal and type 'killall nm-applet' and then 'nm-applet --sm-disable' and see if it appears
[06:18] <Marupa> !dmix
[06:18] <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
[06:18] <wasabi> billy, that defeats hte purpose.
[06:18] <billy> linked_ : #ubuntu-effects.
[06:18] <linked_> billy, thanks
[06:19] <billy> Hypercoo:  there are programs that you can download for Windows for free.  md5checksum i think is the name of one of them.
[06:19] <Hyper-coo> ok
[06:19] <mr_grump5_> billy:i was away...could u repeat
[06:19] <mon^rch> I have a public dir with a symlink to a music folder I want to share. I would really like to do the same and share about5-6 different dir's..
[06:20] <mon^rch> but the symlink dont work for my users...
[06:20] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: when i did this... one icon disappeared... then when i started it again... one came back with a red exclamation on it
[06:20] <Joshooa> !compile
[06:20] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[06:20] <billy> mr_grump5:  I was saying, we already deleted the kernel's entry into the grub entry, so I'm not sure how to boot back into it so that you can edit the boot at prompt.  If I were in your position, i would try to reupdate.  I don't think it'll hurt anything.
[06:20] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: when i hover over it... it says "no network connection"
[06:21] <mr_grump5_> billy: i haven't deleted it..
[06:21] <billy> Hyper-coo:  another source of error is burning the CD too fast.  Use 2x burning mode.
[06:21] <bimberi> XxTRAINEExX: what if you click on it?
[06:21] <XxTRAINEExX> one thing drops down.... wired connection
[06:21] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: is this the network manager i have been looking for?
[06:21] <bimberi> XxTRAINEExX: yes
[06:21] <mr_grump5_> billy>: how to edit the boot at prompt>?
[06:21] <billy> mr_grump5:  is there something like `root=UUIDblahblahblah` in the entry?
[06:22] <mr_grump5_> billy:no] 
[06:22] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: looks exactly like the conncetion properties icon... i thought it was the one for the wired connection
[06:22] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: and the one that was on... was the wireless connection
[06:22] <arrenlex> billy: lol, every day I see that number get lower and lower. xD As long as the md5 checks out, why not burn it at full speed? A modern computer has more than enough processor power to keep a modern cd drive's buffer full. And it will display an error if it doesn't.
[06:22] <bimberi> XxTRAINEExX: yes it does
[06:22] <mr_grump5_> billy:it just gives "kernal panic not syncing :vfs unable to mount root fs on onknown -block [0,0] "
[06:23] <billy> mr_grump5:  I think that was the link's problem.  yours may be different.  not sure how to help.
[06:23] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: so maybe i need to recomment those statements in /etc/network/interfaces and see if it offers a different option when i reboot?
[06:23] <mon^rch> cmon... I know one of youz is an ftp guru :D
[06:23] <shatrat> arrenlex, it's not about the buffer underrun, high speed burns tend to have errors.  It doesnt matter too much with an audio CD but an install disk needs to be perfect
[06:23] <bimberi> XxTRAINEExX: yes indeed
[06:23] <billy> arrenlex:  seems reasonable.  i'm just passing along what's been told to me.  Burning at 2x only takes about ten minutes.  It helps noobs to learn patience, eh?
[06:23] <mr_grump5_> could anyone help with this error "kernal panic not syncing :vfs unable to mount root fs on onknown -block [0,0] "
[06:24] <Hyper-coo> so after i check md5 on the iso file
[06:24] <Hyper-coo> how do i know whether or not it's good?
[06:24] <Hyper-coo> it's just hex
[06:24] <shatrat> Hyper-coo, the correct md5sum is listed on the mirror
[06:24] <Hyper-coo> oh
[06:24] <Hyper-coo> ok thanks
[06:24] <billy> Hyper-coo:  in close proximity to the download source there will be the official md5sum.  you have to compare them.  yes, each and every number down to the very last one.
[06:25] <shatrat> Hyper-coo, if its corrupt, I suggest redownloading with bit torrent, it checksums every block
[06:25] <arrenlex> billy: My CDRWs have to burn at 4x because that's the actual max speed of the CDs. How I suffer waiting for those burns. ;____;
[06:25] <mon^rch> hey, what's that link for becoming a member again please??
[06:25] <arrenlex> !member > mon^rch
[06:25] <userund> arrenlex, that's a shame
[06:25] <billy> arrenlex:  it purges the soul.
[06:25] <bimberi> !membership | mon^rch
[06:25] <ubotu> mon^rch: Want to become an Ubuntu member? Look at http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/newmember
[06:25] <userund> arrenlex, a lightning fast dvd burner is only 35 bucks or so these days.
[06:25] <mon^rch> why tyvm pplz
[06:26] <shatrat> arrenlex, I burn every DVD I make at 2x, takes 45 minutes but it is worth it to know I dont have to do it twice.
[06:26] <arrenlex> userund: No, the drive is fine. It's the CDRW discs themselves. They themselves cannot go above 4x.
[06:26] <Joshooa> !tar
[06:26] <shatrat> and if you burn at high speed a crappy reader like a cheap dvd player with have problems with the media, ive seen that a few times as well
[06:26] <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
[06:26] <userund> arrenlex, ah
[06:27] <mr_grump5_> billy:any suggestions
[06:28] <Tarelerulz_man> Do linux bit torrent use .torrent files?
[06:28] <billy> mr_grump5:  try re-upgrading.  the old stuff will be automatically overwritten.  shouldn't hurt anything.
[06:28] <mon^rch> see, now... for example... firefox wont start (says there is an instance running and i have to shut it down first) weird hunh?
[06:29] <mon^rch> whats the distro name before edgy?
[06:29] <userund> dapper
[06:29] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: im embarased
[06:29] <EADG> Dapper
[06:29] <AdamKili> In windows, it would always tell me there's a problem with the cooling system and my computer would get all slow, in Ubuntu it's never told me this, but sometimes it gets all slow like before. Does anyone know if Ubuntu can tell if there is a problem with your cooling system?
[06:29] <userund> mon^rch, killall firefox
[06:29] <bimberi> XxTRAINEExX: don't be. those icons are too similar
[06:29] <mr_grump5_> billy:can u upgrade from recovery console?
[06:29] <shatrat> Tarelerulz_man, its the same protocol and a lot of the clients are the same too.
[06:29] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: that icon has been there the entire time... i saw two icons that look identicle... one had a big red exclamation and one didnt... in windows that means one connected network and one not connected
[06:29] <EADG> Time for some kill dash nine!
[06:29] <a_ty> vga 3D edubuntu
[06:30] <mon^rch> MIght that be better for me? or will the repo's shutdown sometime sooner than I'd want
[06:30] <shatrat> AdamKili, well, if your computer overheats and clocks itself down that is handled  by the BIOS
[06:30] <a_ty> vga 3D edubuntu client
[06:30] <mon^rch> userund: tnx, man
[06:30] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: i assumed the red one was my ethernet connection which i am not connected to... and the other was the wireless.. which i am using
[06:30] <shatrat> AdamKili, you can check your hardware temps with a program called sensors
[06:30] <Joshooa> ./configure sudo make install    What order should this be in?
[06:30] <Tarelerulz_man> The reason I sawy bit torrent  thing is when I do search for .torrent files I don't find anytting
[06:30] <shatrat> AdamKili, but sensors has to be configured
[06:30] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: and to confirm that.. by default the wireless control through network manager was disabled so if you clicked on it.. it said wired network
[06:30] <mon^rch> lmao!!! now my terminal wont open
[06:31] <mon^rch> I'm bein' rooted!
[06:31] <joincamp> Tarelerulz_man: how do you mean? search your home directory?
[06:31] <bimberi> XxTRAINEExX: is it working now though?
[06:31] <userund> mon^rch, hit alt f1 to get to virtual term for the command, then alt f7 to get back to GUI
[06:31] <Tarelerulz_man> I did  whole file system search
[06:31] <joincamp> Tarelerulz_man: you need a client like azureus
[06:31] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: but after commenting out all my entries in /etc/network/interfaces and rebooting... then clicking on it again... now it lists all my wireless info.. so yes its working
[06:31] <AdamKili> shatrat: i'll try it. what should I look for? the processor temp getting high, then going back down as the BIOS clocks the CPU down?
[06:32] <joincamp> Tarelerulz_man: then you download the .torrent files from a tracker
[06:32] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: thanks for your time and patience... defiintely a "forehead slap" needed here
[06:32] <mon^rch> hmm, ok
[06:32] <bimberi> XxTRAINEExX: cool :) that's the most important thing!
[06:32] <asc> joshooa: ./configure, then sudo make install
[06:32] <joincamp> Tarelerulz_man: sudo apt-get install azureus
[06:32] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: thanks again... this will definitely make my blog entry :) appreciate the help
[06:32] <asc> joshooa: maybe a line break after sudo make
[06:32] <bimberi> XxTRAINEExX: and i don't mean the slap ;)
[06:32] <billy> mr_grump5:  yes.  edit your /etc/apt/sources.list to read "feisty" everywhere that "edgy" is written.  then `sudo apt-get update`.  then `sudo apt-get dist-upgrade`.  i think that ought to do it.
[06:32] <asc> but maybe not
[06:32] <shatrat> AdamKili, when processors overhead the BIOS shuts the computer down, and when it reboots it will often be at min FSB for safety
[06:32] <asc> (it's a secret!)
[06:32] <snowpunk98> Can anyone suggest a bluetooth manager
[06:33] <snowpunk98> Gnome based
[06:33] <mon^rch> ok, no. that's not going to work. gosh darnitt. Im gonna reboot.
[06:33] <Tarelerulz_man> Ok the reason I want to know is I am seeding an linux iso and I wanted to share it ,but I did not know if I could do that easy
[06:33] <shatrat> AdamKili, run "sudo sensors-detect" and read the instructions it gives you to set up "sensors"
[06:33] <Tarelerulz_man> I will
[06:33] <billy> we'll see.
[06:35] <Caplain> im trying to get infrared working but i lost the origional cable so i took two female 9 pin cables and put them together, but im not sure if i have the wires connected correctly
[06:35] <billy> hahahaha
[06:35] <Tarelerulz_man> cool I will get the frog
[06:35] <AdamKili> shatrat: ok. give me a while it's already kinda slow
[06:36] <Caplain> should i just connect it straight through?
[06:36] <Tarelerulz_man> SO if I do find the torrent file where it has how much I have all ready share in it so when I switch systems I will pick up where it left off
[06:36] <shatrat> AdamKili, that's not a good sign, sounds like maybe your hard drive is dying or something.  Overheating usually shows instability but not slowdown
[06:36] <billy> Sorry Caplain.  That sounds like something I'd do.
[06:37] <Caplain> hmm
[06:37] <mon^rch> what'dya think its better to run ked apps on gnome on gome apps on kde? hehe
[06:38] <asc> mon^rch: I suppose it depends on which you like better.
[06:38] <trythil> hey all, question about the latest version of Feisty
[06:38] <shatrat> mon^rch, either way youre wasting a lot of RAM
[06:38] <billy> Caplain:  as long as the cables themselves are a possible source of malfunction, there's really no way of telling where the error lies if your infrared isn't functioning properly.  To be able to pinpoint the cause of inoperability, it's best that you do your upmost to secure another original cable.
[06:38] <trythil> it seems that the old LinuxThreads library was taken out of libc and replaced with just NPTL - is there a package that provides both still?  i've got a threaded, broken application (Cinelerra) that I need to use, but it depends on quirks of the old threading system
[06:39] <trythil> been apt-cache searching for a bit, but if anyone can give me some pointers that'd be cool :)
[06:39] <Caplain> im using an infrared transceiver from lego minstorms
[06:39] <billy> Caplain:  in other words, that may work fine, and something else be messing up, but you'll never know.  See what I mean?
[06:39] <mon^rch> shatrat: come over to the future and use (x) windows
[06:39] <Caplain> yeah
[06:40] <shatrat> mon^rch, if you use QT apps and GTK apps at the same time youre loading a bunch of different libraries into ram
[06:40] <mon^rch> there are simply too many beautiful proggies out there to NOT go ahead and dive in
[06:41] <Draco> Hi can someone gimme the Ubotu link for setting up shared printers, the cupsd.conf setup
[06:41] <mon^rch> shatrat: you know, I may be loading alot of stuff into ram. I can also do a heck of alot of cool stuff now :D
[06:43] <Draco> or can someone tell me if its safe to copy the cupsd.conf from an older version of ubuntu to v 6.10
[06:43] <asc> Hopefully RAM isn't too much of a problem unless you're on old hardware.  The cache can be down below 60 megs before it starts paging excessively.
[06:43] <AdamKili> shatrat: i did sensors-detect, and it couldn't detect any chips. it said i needed i2c installed, but a search in synaptic only turned up libglui2c2 and xml-rpc-api2cpp, do i need either of those?
[06:43] <snowpunk98> Can anyone suggest a gnome based bluetooth manager
[06:44] <Joshooa> google?
[06:44] <AdamKili> snowpunk98: have you tried gnome-bluetooth?
[06:44] <mon^rch> At any rate, I checking out KDE. the fonts are SO tiny!
[06:44] <StoneNote> snowpunk98, you mean like gnome-bluetooth ?
[06:45] <shatrat> AdamKili, I think i2c is a kernel module
[06:45] <shatrat> AdamKili, maybe you can find a how-to on it, it works fine for me
[06:46] <AdamKili> shatrat: so it should already be there...ya i'll see if there is a how-to
[06:46] <snowpunk98> Not sure lemme see
[06:46] <AdamKili> shatrat: .......tomorrow....(yawns) 'night. thanks for the help
[06:49] <snowpunk98> So I installed gnome-bluetooth
[06:49] <CoRnJuLiOx> alright, i'm getting a bigger HD next week, and i'd like to transfer my OS over to that new, bigger drive without having to install it over again. i hear ghosting might be the solution using 'dd' but i'm also going to upgrade a whole bunch of other things too, processor, mobo, gfx. is there anything that i should be aware of before i attempt this? configuration issues etc etc
[06:49] <snowpunk98> but how can I send out with it?
[06:49] <mon^rch> thgere's got to be a file permissions folder sharing guru out there to help lil ol me, please.
[06:49] <kaushal> Hi ALL
[06:49] <abbad0n> anyone had any experience using the ufs-linux kernel module?
[06:50] <kaushal> I havent got reply to my mail
[06:50] <Maul555> CoRnJuLiOx:  you may have to reinstall, but im not the guru, so dont take my word as final on that..
[06:50] <CoRnJuLiOx> hmm.
[06:50] <kaushal> on ubuntu help mailing list
[06:50] <borgesvive> hi, kaushal
[06:50] <Maul555> CoRnJuLiOx: if you cant get an answer here, consider posting the question to the message boards
[06:50] <wyndblade> is it possible to burn the edgy cd image to dvd?
[06:51] <kaushal> Hi borgesvive
[06:51] <Draco> why can I not copy a .conf file to a memory stick, it copies the file but when I put the memory stick into another machine the file isnt there
[06:51] <kaushal> can i paste the paste bin
[06:51] <Maul555> Draco:  did you unmount the volume before removing it?
[06:52] <Draco> Maul555 nope, never needed to do that for a memory stick before
[06:52] <Maul555> Draco: try it....
[06:52] <Gumby> Draco: you should ALWAYS unmount a volume before removing it
[06:52] <Draco> okie dokie
[06:53] <Maul555> lol...
[06:54] <Draco> hey u guys are so clever :)
[06:54] <abbad0n> no one with any experience using UFS volumes under ubuntu?
[06:54] <Maul555> Draco:  well we try anyways   : p
[06:55] <billy> Maul555: did you find it difficult to connect to the internet with dial-up in ubuntu?
[06:55] <Draco> grrr now it doesnt allow the paste option in the cups folder
[06:55] <kaushal> I am getting
[06:55] <Gumby> Draco: use sudo or gksudo
[06:56] <kaushal> Adding system user `stunnel4'...
[06:56] <yell0w> Draco, just removing it without unmounting for , say a few more time (repeatedly preferably) then you'll be enlightened like us
[06:56] <kaushal> *** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0xf7fb6154 ***

[06:56] <billy> Maul555: what I mean is, was it difficult configuring your dial-up modem?
[06:57] <wyndblade> ellisd: you try using envy?
[06:57] <Bourne> I would like to load the ovcam webcam module for my CAM, and its loading the spc5xx one, which is the incorrect, how do I swap it?
[06:57] <Maul555> billy:  well.. im not using ubuntu.. I have windows 2k3 server supplying services to my network..
[06:57] <kaushal> so any thoughts
[06:57] <ElllisD> wyndblade: never heard of it-
[06:57] <wyndblade> ElllisD: search the ubuntu fourms for it
[06:58] <billy> maul555:  oh.  darn.  I have a friend who's having a time trying to connect via dial-up in ubuntu.
[06:58] <Coffeegrindah> I'm having an odd error when starting gnome. I get "gnome-session . .. unable to lock ICE Authority file /home/geek/.ICEauthority" I have to login to failsafe terminal and remove my .ICEauthority-c file as root, any idea why this happens?
[06:58] <arrenlex> !fixres | ElllisD
[06:58] <ubotu> ElllisD: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[06:58] <ElllisD> wyndblade: will do tyvm
[06:58] <Maul555> billy:  but i doubt i would have much trouble with it, the ubuntu options seem straight foward enough
[06:58] <wyndblade> ElllisD: no problem
[06:58] <kaushal> :-/
[06:58] <ElllisD> ubotu: ty, too
[06:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ty, too - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:58] <billy> Maul555:  yeah.  sure.  rub it in why don't you.  :)
[06:58] <Maul555> billy: but then again, i havent tried it yet
[06:58] <fletch_> can anyone help me with getting drivers installed and running for an ati mobility 9700?
[06:58] <ElllisD> ubotu: thank you as well
[06:58] <arrenlex> !ati | fletch_
[06:58] <Maul555> billy: lol, you know more than me when it comes to linux... lol
[06:58] <ubotu> fletch_: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:58] <wyndblade> ElllisD: Just had the same issue myself, and just installed envy and had it auto config X, worked like a charm :P
[06:59] <kaushal> I am not getting any answers here
[06:59] <kaushal> :(
[06:59] <billy> Maul555:  Naw bro.  Totally not.
[06:59] <hsss_> hi
[06:59] <Bourne> where does ubuntu loads its MODULES?
[06:59] <Maul555> billy: could have fooled me
[06:59] <Bourne> i want to change some modules
[06:59] <fletch_> arrenlex: yeah and all i want is either beryl or compiz to run
[06:59] <hsss_> hi fletch
[07:00] <fletch_> hsss_: hey
[07:00] <billy> Maul555:  not just could, but did.  :D
[07:00] <Maul555> kaushal:  be patient, if you dont get an answer immediatly, it may just mean that the people watching the can at the moment dont know, or they where too preoccupied to read your question.  patience is a virtue here
[07:00] <wyndblade> Maul555: Indeed
[07:00] <hsss_> hi
[07:00] <wyndblade> hello
[07:00] <kaushal> Thanks Maul555
[07:00] <arrenlex> fletch_: Then you need the nvidia driver
[07:00] <Maul555> kaushal: np
[07:00] <arrenlex> !nvidia | fletch_
[07:00] <ubotu> fletch_: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:00] <fletch_> ubotu: do you know if it would be better to run one rather then the other
[07:00] <Hyper-coo> ok
[07:00] <hsss_> how do u install rhythmbox
[07:01] <Hyper-coo> this livecd failed again, i did the cd integrity check and the md5checksum and both passed
[07:01] <billy> hsss_ : ever brun that CD?
[07:01] <billy> *burn
[07:01] <fletch_> arrenlex: nvidia driver for what?
[07:01] <arrenlex> fletch_: To run beryl or compiz.
[07:01] <Hyper-coo> i got an error right after or during the filesystem check
[07:01] <Coffeegrindah> does anyone have a clue as to why my .ICEauthority file would lock randomly?
[07:01] <wyndblade> Hyper-coo: Try the alternate install cd?
[07:01] <billy> Hyper-coo:  the LiveCD didn't take you to a desktop?
[07:01] <Hyper-coo> i wrote it down if any one thinks they can help
[07:01] <Whebeft> question: i just registered a gpg key, what exactly would my key look like, it didnt ask me to enter something such as a nick name or anything
[07:02] <kaushal> Maul555 I have mailed to the ubuntu mailing list also
[07:02] <adjioev> I'm trying to download photos from my camera Canaon Ixus, and i get following error: "An error occurred in the io-library ('Could not claim the USB device'): Could not claim interface 0 (Operation not permitted). Make sure no other program or kernel module (such as sdc2xx, stv680, spca50x) is using the device and you have read/write access to the device.". Any ideas?
[07:02] <kaushal> I havent got any reply either
[07:02] <snowpunk98> Can someone tell me how to edit my fstab so my NTFS Windows partition shows up as Windows in Computer rather than being in /media/sda1?
[07:02] <Maul555> kaushal:  try the ubuntu message boards too..
[07:02] <Draco> someone help me with the mv command, mv cupsd.conf /etc/cups/cupsd.conf is obviously wrong
[07:02] <Maul555> kaushal: but at the same time, dont give up on this chan..
[07:03] <kaushal> whats the ubuntu message boards
[07:03] <kaushal> are you talking about topic
[07:03] <wyndblade> snowpunk98: do gksu /etc/fstab and change /media/sda1 to /windows, and mkdir windows, reboot
[07:03] <wyndblade> snowpunk98: *do gksu gedit /etc/fstab
[07:03] <Maul555> kaushal:  http://ubuntuforums.org  i think
[07:04] <Draco> hey Maul555 can you give me a hand with moving my cupsd.conf please
[07:04] <arrenlex> snowpunk98: What wyndblade said is: gksudo /etc/fstab, change /media/sda1 to /windows, then sudo mkdir /windows, then umount /media/sda1, then mount -a
[07:04] <Maul555> Draco:  lol, i have no idea what that file is... lol
[07:04] <wyndblade> thank you arrenlex
[07:04] <snowpunk98> mkdir where
[07:04] <snowpunk98> in media?
[07:04] <Draco> Maul555 its cupsd.conf sitting in my home folder I want to move to \etc\cups folder
[07:04] <wyndblade> snowpunk98: in / is where you do mkdir windows
[07:05] <Maul555> Draco: you cant drag and drop?
[07:05] <wyndblade> snowpunk98: and make the mount point /windows
[07:05] <Draco> Maul555 nah no permission to drop into cups folder
[07:05] <snowpunk98> dumb question, what does gksudo do
[07:05] <Maul555> then you may have to do it by the command line..  I find that stuff annoying too, im still looking for a way to get permissions in the gui for stuff like that..
[07:05] <wyndblade> snowpunk98: now that's a question I don't have the answer to :P
[07:06] <Draco> cant get the mv format correct :(
[07:06] <tieTYT2> if I want to install edgy, must I format dapper or is there an upgrade?
[07:06] <billy> snowpunk98:  gives you sudo priviledges via a graphical input.
[07:06] <Maul555> just do the command for a regular move, but with sudo infront of it (for super user)
[07:06] <wyndblade> tieTYT2: search the ubuntu forums on the proper way to upgrade :P
[07:06] <snowpunk98> whats gksu same thing?
[07:06] <billy> snowpunk98:  for instance, if you need to run a superuser only program within the X, not in a terminal, put gksudo before it.
[07:06] <fletch_> correct me if im wrong but if the direct rendering says yes, then the drivers are working correctly?
[07:06] <Bourne> I WANT to insert the OV511 module instead the system choice "sn9c102" - HOW DO I DO IT?
[07:07] <Draco> whats the regular syntax for mv im thinking sudo mv cups.conf \etc\cups
[07:07] <billy> snowpunk98:  approximately, i think.
[07:07] <wyndblade> fletch_: I personally fire up glxgears to check
[07:07] <tritium> Bourne: blacklist the one you don't want (in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist), and load the one you want
[07:07] <fletch_> wyndblade: whats the command for that?
[07:07] <tieTYT2> ok thanks
[07:07] <wyndblade> fletch_:open up a terminal and put in glxgears
[07:07] <Xtyn> hello, if i downloaded tifm_0.8d.tar, how do i install the tifm modules in /etc/modules?
[07:08] <tues> ok i give up how do i install a tar.gz?
[07:08] <mneptok> tues: what are you trying to install?
[07:08] <wyndblade> fletch_: if it's nto installed do a search through synaptic
[07:08] <fletch_> if they come up, then the drivers should be working right?
[07:08] <arrenlex> fletch_: What's the output of "glxinfo | grep render"?
[07:08] <Maul555> tues:  what is the program that the tar.gz belongs to?
[07:08] <Xtyn> usually it's ./configure make, make install
[07:08] <stdin> Xtyn: that's probably the source for the modules, you'll need to compile them against your kernel
[07:08] <tues> deluge
[07:08] <billy> fletch_ : you can also `glxinfo | grep direct`.  should output a yes.
[07:09] <Maul555> tues:  i dont have an answer, but what you probably will want to do is see if that program is available in synaptic first..
[07:09] <Xtyn> so how do i compile them?
[07:09] <Bourne> tritium: I BLACKLISTED it... now do I have to restart the system? how do I load the new webcam driver?
[07:09] <arrenlex> billy: why do you have backticks in a command? xD
[07:09] <arrenlex> billy: also, direct rendering does not imply 3D acceleration.
[07:09] <mneptok> tues: you should wait until there's a stable build in the repos
[07:09] <tues> i tried synaptic no luck
[07:09] <tues> well then any torrent suggestions?
[07:09] <Coffeegrindah> anyone feel like helping out with a tweeked install? having odd login problems
[07:09] <fletch_> arrenlex: it says direct rendering: Yes
[07:09] <fletch_> OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI R300 20060815 AGP 1x TCL
[07:10] <Maul555> tues:  im not saying there is no way to install it, i just dont know how
[07:10] <nalpha> guys... help me.. ( i want to have a internal messenger or chat between windows network and linux network ) can I ?
[07:10] <mneptok> tues: no offense, but if you don't know what to do with a .gz file then you prolly shouldn't be running beta software like Deluge.
[07:10] <Coffeegrindah> LivePersistant USB. funtimes.. funtimes..
[07:10] <tues> well i dont ether so is there an easier thingor way to do it?
[07:10] <Maul555> nalpha: yeah, get gaim
[07:10] <arrenlex> fletch_: That tells me you don't have an nvidia card.
[07:10] <Maul555> nalpha:  OH, YOU ALLREADY HAVE IT!!!!
[07:10] <mneptok> tues: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install bittornado-gui
[07:10] <nalpha> except gaim?
[07:10] <fletch_> yeah
[07:10] <fletch_> arrenlex: its ati
[07:10] <kaushal> Hi Again
[07:10] <tues> it says it s astable release and besides i got nothing to lose trust me
[07:10] <nalpha> Maul555: do you mean what?
[07:10] <arrenlex> fletch_: *facepalm* xDD
[07:11] <billy> arrenlex:  the backticks demarcate the command from the normal text.  I've been misinformed about the direct not approximating to 3D acceleration then.
[07:11] <kaushal> I have registered on ubuntuforums.org
[07:11] <kaushal> how do i post a new message
[07:11] <mneptok> tues: use the repos. as a new Linux user it will make your life a LOT esaier.
[07:11] <Maul555> nalpha:  check synaptic, there are a but load of messenger clients, go find one you like...  play around a bit..
[07:11] <nalpha> Maul555: Because GAIM can make my client chat to out siide.. i want the internal only...
[07:11] <fletch_> what could this mean?
[07:11] <fletch_> libGL warning: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x4b
[07:11] <mneptok> tues: and BitTornado is a very good client.
[07:11] <arrenlex> fletch_: Fine. But you're using the free drivers. They do give you rudimentary 3D acceleration, but it may or may not be good enough to run beryl or compiz. If they're not, you're going to have to use fglrx.
[07:11] <kaushal> I am not able to see any link which says to post a new message
[07:11] <billy> fletch_ : mine says that too.  i still gots the cube though.
[07:11] <tues> thank you :D
[07:12] <fletch_> billy: word, how can i get that? i want that lol
[07:12] <arrenlex> fletch_: That's an aesthetic error you can ignore... it just says there's something in the free drivers which isn't implemented yet (obviously)
[07:12] <snowpunk98> gnome-phone-manager doesnt work :(
[07:12] <mneptok> tues: if you use Windows, you can use BitTornado there, as well. that way you only have 1 torrent client to learn and love. :)
[07:12] <billy> fletch_ : you want beryl?
[07:12] <tues> however i might stil try to figure that out 1 i need to learnhow to, and 2 it looks prreeettty :D
[07:12] <fletch_> billy: yeah that or compiz
[07:13] <fletch_> billy: i have it on my desktop with my nvidia card, but i really want it on my laptop
[07:13] <arrenlex> fletch_: Direct rendering means applications can talk to the video hardware directly. It doesn't mean they get 3D acceleration, though. I've seen that with my own eyes.
[07:13] <mneptok> tues: http://www.bittornado.com/
[07:13] <snowpunk98> Is there an internet explorer for Linux?
[07:13] <fletch_> arrenlex: whats that in laymans terms?
[07:13] <fletch_> lol
[07:13] <arrenlex> Sorry, billy, that last message was for you.
[07:13] <arrenlex> fletch_: Ignore that, that wasn't for you.
[07:13] <arrenlex> !firefox | snowpunk98
[07:13] <ubotu> snowpunk98: firefox is the default web-browser on Ubuntu. To install the latest version, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion Installing plugins: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxPlugins
[07:13] <fletch_> arrenlex: ok
[07:13] <mneptok> tues: never mind pretty. i want something that *works*. and BitTornado has really good developers. they invented super-seeding. ;)
[07:14] <billy> arrenlex:  uhh... sorry dude. it's lost in the mix!  :)
[07:14] <mneptok> tues: http://www.bittornado.com/
[07:14] <snowpunk98> Well ya I know
[07:14] <Maul555> ubotu:  firefox pwns your face!!!
[07:14] <ubotu> firefox: lightweight web browser based on Mozilla. In component main, is optional. Version 2.0.0.2+0dfsg-0ubuntu0.6.10 (edgy), package size 9009 kB, installed size 28608 kB
[07:14] <arrenlex> billy: Direct rendering means applications can talk to the video hardware directly. It doesn't mean they get 3D acceleration, though. I've seen that with my own eyes.
[07:14] <snowpunk98> But is there an Internet Explorer for IE only apps
[07:14] <snowpunk98> Or would I have to boot into windows
[07:14] <fletch_> tues: you ever used Mutorrent?
[07:14] <billy> arrenlex:  OK.  That makes sense.  I believe you.
[07:14] <tues> fletch : no
[07:14] <Draco> Maul555 fixed the problem I was thinking DOS using \ instead of / :)
[07:15] <arrenlex> snowpunk98: IE-only apps are likely activeX, which are essentially windows executables. You might have some luck running a few of them under wine, but not many and not well. http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page
[07:15] <fletch_> tues: oh its really good but i havent found it for linux yet(only windows) but i found a similar client that works really well
[07:15] <fletch_> tues: its called Deluge
[07:15] <Coffeegrindah> snowpunk98: I may have the trick for you
[07:15] <snowpunk98> Coffeegrindah, k
[07:15] <Maul555> Draco:  lol
[07:16] <tues> fletch : thats what i was talkignabout i dunno how to make that run though im not that advanced
[07:16] <mneptok> fletch_: people using both Ubuntu and Windows should probably use BT-mainline, BitTornado, or Azureus as all 3 run on both platforms.
[07:16] <fletch_> tues: if the other clients do you anything, i recommend giving it a try, i really like it
[07:16] <fletch_> tues: oh ok its fairly easy
[07:16] <tues> ok how?
[07:16] <Coffeegrindah> snowpunk98: here's a list of a few standalone IE versions, http://browsers.evolt.org/?ie/32bit/standalone  you should be able to run one of em under wine
[07:17] <fletch_> mneptok: i use them both and i use diff clients
[07:17] <mneptok> fletch_: will you be here when Deluge makes it into a repo, tues gets it via apt, and the machine loses its mind? ;)
[07:17] <arrenlex> snowpunk98: IE no longer runs under a default wine because of the implementation of the gecko engine right into wine. Check out the ies4linux site I gave you.
[07:17] <fletch_> tues: check out getdeb.net its a good site for helping you get Deluge
[07:17] <Coffeegrindah> Snowpunk98:I haven't tested it fully myself. but it may or may not work, last time I wined and IE'd was about 3 years ago..
[07:17] <arrenlex> Coffeegrindah: That's for you too.
[07:18] <Coffeegrindah> I'm  checking it now
[07:18] <snowpunk98> Coffeegrindah, Thanks
[07:18] <Maul555> How can i get access to edit my xorg.conf file from the gui?
[07:18] <Draco> ok copying my old cupsd.conf file to the new machine didnt help, can someone help me with setting up shared printing or refer me please.
[07:18] <fletch_> mneptok: unfortunately not, but it has worked fine for me for a long while, thats all im saying
[07:18] <mneptok> fletch_: please do not refer new Ubuntu users to external repositories for apps that have similar functionality in official repos
[07:18] <tues> thank you!
[07:18] <Draco> Maul555 search for it and double click ?
[07:19] <Maul555> Draco: no, only root can edit, i can open it, but not save changes..
[07:19] <mneptok> fletch_: i have had to clean up a LOT of nasty messes caused by new users compiling software or using external repos
[07:19] <Draco> sudo nano from terminal then
[07:19] <fletch_> mneptok: i dont exactly understand what you are saying, i do appologize tho
[07:20] <mneptok> fletch_: third party repos are the #1 issue people have when upgrading Ubuntu
[07:20] <Draco> Maul555 terminal change to /etc/X11 then sudo nano xorg.conf
[07:20] <arrenlex> fletch_: He's saying, don't give advice like "check out getdeb.net its a good site for helping you get Deluge" because new users get confused and screw their computers up.
[07:20] <fletch_> ah that makes a bit more sence
[07:21] <Maul555> Draco: ill try it, thx
[07:21] <mneptok> fletch_: what if getdeb.net's Deluge depends on a new libstdc++ ? *boom* game over for that user. :)
[07:21] <fletch_> i understand where you are comming from, i only wish you do the same for i
[07:21] <AzMoo> Is there any way I can see what version of ubuntu I'm running? (Ubuntu Server)?
[07:22] <arrenlex> !version > AzMoo
[07:22] <AzMoo> arrenlex, thanks.
[07:22] <Maul555> how do i go up a directory in the terminal?
[07:22] <stdin> Maul555: cd ..
[07:22] <arrenlex> Maul555: cd ..
[07:22] <mneptok> fletch_: i understand the "i know how to do this and i can help" impulse. but consider the audience. i can load a gun with bullets blindfolded. but i wouldn't help a child do it. ;)
[07:22] <Maul555> ahh, i didnt use a space, lol
[07:22] <mneptok> AzMoo: lsb_release -a
[07:22] <fletch_> i just dont like to close doors that dont need to be closed hypothetically speaking :P, but i get what you are saying
[07:23] <mon^rch> how can I mount one directory under another one?
[07:23] <statt> What's up everybody
[07:23] <Draco> Ok where are the clever people that make Ubotu speak, im looking for a reference for configuring cups printing
[07:23] <fletch_> mneptok: once again i get that, but that is no way is a good analogy ;)
[07:23] <kaushal> Maul555 : Thanks it worked
[07:23] <Flannel> mon^rch: Easy.  Mount points are just folders.  So, make your mountpoint, then mount to it
[07:23] <kaushal> :)
[07:23] <fletch_> reinstalling ubuntu is in no way like giving a kid a gun
[07:24] <kaushal> :-)
[07:24] <Maul555> draco: thx, it seems to be working
[07:24] <Draco> Maul555 good stuff
[07:24] <arrenlex> !cups | Draco
[07:24] <ubotu> Draco: Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[07:24] <Maul555> kaushal:  i forgot what i told you to do, lol, but ok...
[07:24] <Draco> thanks arrenlex
[07:24] <fletch_> anyway, i could use some help myself with beryl or compiz
[07:24] <anabelle> hi, i just installed beryl 2.0 in a Kubuntu Edgy, and now when i try to select Beryl as the manager i get this error: Checking for non power of two texture support   : failed
[07:24] <arrenlex> fletch_: What do you need?
[07:24] <fletch_> i dont know which would be better to run on an intel/ati system
[07:24] <fletch_> id love some advice
[07:25] <arrenlex> fletch_: It doesn't matter. Beryl has more features but is less stable, compiz has less features but is more stable. They'll run the same on any platform.
[07:25] <lori> Fletch: Can you help me out with a beryl problem or point me to the correct chat for that?
[07:25] <mneptok> fletch_: my advice is "avoid compositors for a little while"
[07:25] <mneptok> ;)
[07:25] <N3WB> Anyone know how Samba works? could need some help
[07:25] <mneptok> lori: #ubuntu-effects
[07:25] <arrenlex> lori: Help for beryl\compiz in #ubuntu-effects
[07:25] <mr_grump5> billy:thanks man..fif update..everything got fixed..turn out to be a broken package...now in fiesty!!
[07:25] <lori> thanks guys :)
[07:25] <fletch_> mneptok: why do you say that?
[07:25] <kaushal> N3WB : www.samba.org
[07:25] <billy> mr_grump5:  whoah!!  that rocks my brotha.
[07:26] <Maul555> N3WB:  samba should just "work"  if not, then go to places>connect to server, and enter the ip of the computer you want to get to.. thats what i do when samba lets me down, works everytime
[07:26] <N3WB> kaushal one quick question, do i need some sort of a client to Win32 too?
[07:26] <mneptok> fletch_: when they work, they mostly kinda almost work. but when they break, it's a thing of horrific beauty.
[07:26] <N3WB> oh ok
[07:26] <arrenlex> N3WB: samba makes your linux computer appear in Network Neighbourhood just like another windows box.
[07:26] <billy> mr_grump5:  so everything works cool like it did before?

[07:27] <Maul555> when i get this computer fine tuned again, i may dive into beryl
[07:27] <mneptok> fletch_: you're further along than most :)
[07:27] <fletch_> mneptok: i had it running fine, like to the point i could get the cube up, but it was a solid white cube
[07:27] <wyndblade> Maul555: I already tried beryl, couldn't get it to work with the billion faqs, pulled it lol

[07:41] <Maul555> Flannel:  is this what ubotu was talking about when it mentioned unhappy ops?
[07:41] <billy> K-Rich:  do you know how to edit your sources.list?

[07:42] <XfceRules> Having a problem: I am using a TwinView setup, and that works great, however my first monitors max resolution is 1280x1024, while the second is 1600x1200. I want Wine games to go full screen to 1600x1200, but that causes it to default to 1024x768. any suggestions? I tried adding metamode "1600x1600,1600x1600" and while (surprisingly) gnome still started up, games still only start to 1280x1024 max. Any suggestions?
[07:42] <caveman> good evening
[07:43] <billy> K-Rich:  First, `sudo apt-get upgrade` to be sure you're up to date.  Then, edit sources.list by replacing all occurences of "Dapper" with "Edgy".  Then, `sudo apt-get update`.  Then `sudo apt-get dist-upgrade`.
[07:43] <Maul555> caveman:  are you mad at the gieco commercials??
[07:43] <arrenlex> K-Rich: Or if you want to do it properly, follow the instructions in !upgrade
[07:43] <caveman> i wish then maby id be rich
[07:43] <K-Rich> billy, i think it has something to do with archive.ubuntu.com stopped working for me so i changed them all to ca.archive.ubuntu.com and was able to update again, archive.ubuntu.com still wont finish an apt-get update for me... and i think that is where it's trying to get the upgrade tool from

[07:44] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[07:44] <billy> arrenlex:  how is what I advised improper?  educate me.
[07:44] <Maul555> Flannel:  all you had to say was "yes"
[07:45] <Flannel> billy: manually editing the sources.list isn't the recommended method anymore.

[07:45] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[07:45] <XfceRules> is there a games / wow support channel? I've done some fancy stuff and got great performance on a moderatly old machine. Love to help people, and possibly get some help.
[07:45] <caveman> i have aa question but it isnt to do with the topic
[07:45] <arrenlex> billy: Because it doesn't reinstall the desktop metapackage at the end, which means pieces of the system might be missing.
[07:45] <Maul555> Flannel:  sory when i get a few into me i tend to get off topic, im just tryign to have some fun while i deal with my driver install..
[07:45] <Flannel> XfceRules: try #winehq
[07:45] <XfceRules> caveman: wassup?
[07:45] <XfceRules> flannel thaks
[07:45] <billy> Flannel:  oh.  a hang-over from Debian on my part.
[07:46] <Draco> can anyone please help me with cups setup and printer sharing ive followed the instructions but no luck
[07:46] <billy> arrenlex:  great reason.
[07:46] <caveman> i just switched from windows so im wondering what do i need to do for system maintence
[07:46] <caveman> like a skan disk or defrag
[07:46] <arrenlex> billy: eh... depends how important X is to you.
[07:46] <Seveas> caveman, sit back and relax :)
[07:46] <caveman> ok
[07:46] <Seveas> caveman, and install updates when available
[07:47] <billy> arrenlex:  would it dump you to a command line?
[07:47] <caveman> ok
[07:47] <Madpilot> caveman, not much. Linux's filesystems don't fragment like NTFS/fat32 do
[07:47] <arrenlex> caveman: your partitions are scanned automagically every 30 mounts. ext3 doesn't frag very much at all. Don't worry about it.
[07:47] <arrenlex> billy: Yes.
[07:47] <caveman> man i wish i would have switched long ago
[07:48] <N3WB> caveman same here :) I switched to ubuntu a week ago and i just love it :d
[07:48] <billy> arrenlex:  i see.  I think I could manage at that point, but I don't want to dump others there if they're not comfortable.
[07:48] <N3WB> *:D
[07:48] <billy> arrenlex:  and typing !update | whoever is alot easier.
[07:48] <billy> :)
[07:48] <kraypius> what is the best way to add more space to my ext3 partition?
[07:48] <XfceRules> madpilot caveman I am so dumbfounded how few performance tweaks / maintaince is necessary for Ubuntu. it is laughable.
[07:48] <caveman> i switched about 4 days ago when widows crashed and i lost all my info
[07:48] <billy> or !upgrade... whatever.
[07:49] <Maul555> so the instructions for this driver is telling me to insert a line under the "extentions" sections of my xorg.conf file, but i can find no such section, where should i create this section?
[07:49] <caveman> this is run off ctt  right
[07:49] <billy> Maul555:  I put mine at the very end.
[07:49] <Maul555> billy: cool, ill try the same..
[07:49] <Madpilot> XfceRules, yeah, a roommate was doing the defrag dance on his XP machine a few nights ago,  having to disable his virus scanner to get the defrag done... all that junk. So glad to be free of that whole treadmill!
[07:49] <arrenlex> Maul555: What is it asking you?
[07:50] <arrenlex> Maul555: Composite?
[07:50] <Madpilot> caveman, ctt?
[07:50] <K-Rich> arrenlex, the update manager freezes on the Downloading the upgrade tool window
[07:50] <caveman> i am too
[07:50] <kaushal> Hi
[07:50] <caveman> c plus
[07:50] <Maul555> arrenlex: yeah, actualy
[07:50] <arrenlex> Maul555: It looks like this, anywhere in the file:
[07:50] <arrenlex> Section "Extensions"
[07:50] <arrenlex>         Option "Composite" "Enable"
[07:50] <arrenlex> EndSection
[07:50] <Madpilot> caveman, C++
[07:50] <kaushal> I have posted my query to ubuntuforums.org
[07:50] <caveman> im thinking too hard
[07:50] <Maul555> Section "Extensions"
[07:50] <Maul555>         Option      "Composite" "0"
[07:50] <Maul555> EndSection
[07:50] <caveman> need to quit that
[07:50] <arrenlex> Maul555: (or disable, whatever it's asking of you)
[07:50] <XfceRules> madpilot virus scanner? he he he
[07:50] <kaushal> so when can i get reply
[07:50] <billy> Maul555:  i think the "EndSection" *is* important, though I've heard different things.
[07:51] <Maul555> well, for now, im just gona do what it tells me
[07:51] <arrenlex> Of course EndSection is important. xD That's like saying "I've heard </span> is important".
[07:51] <XfceRules> madpilot ubuntu.config-> virus.vulnerability="false"
[07:51] <Maul555> its claiming that ill have jerky video if i dont enter this into the file
[07:51] <caveman> thanks for the info i feel better now
[07:51] <billy> arrenlex:  well, I read one guy saying "I don't think that's important."  Just making sure Maul555 doesn't have to do it twice.
[07:52] <Maul555> well, i dont see any harm in it, and its allready in front of me, so... meh...
[07:52] <billy> Maul555:  the world will melt if you don't enter it.
[07:52] <billy> like puddin'
[07:52] <Maul555> billy:  thats what i thought, just didnt want to mention it, you can ALL thank me later
[07:53] <billy> Maul555:  ever hear ringing in your ears when it's really quiet?
[07:53] <billy> a faint faint ringing.
[07:53] <MikeC2> Hey, ark was the default compressed file handler in kubuntu, can any one recomend something better?
[07:54] <cani> hi, i need help installing php4 in edgy eft
[07:54] <Maul555> billy: yeah..
[07:55] <Maul555> billy: why, are you about to tell me something CRAZY@@@@@@!!!#$!!1111
[07:55] <billy> Maul555:  that's the universe slowly deflating because of all those jerks who DIDN'T put it in the there!
[07:55] <billy> pffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft
[07:55] <Maul555> oh dear lord, we must stop them from not doing anything..!!!
[07:55] <caveman> what is the difference between ubuntu and mandrake

[07:57] <billy> cani:  isnt' php4 in Synaptic?
[07:58] <Maul555> caveman:  well, like any linux distro, there are more similarities than disimilarities, but the disimilarities ammount to more when it comes down to actualy using it.  all n all, ubuntu is more usuer friendly in many ways...  and its cuddly!
[07:58] <cani> billy: nop, only php5
[07:58] <arrenlex> caveman: Mandrake doesn't even exist anymore... how many years ago did you last look at the Linux world? xD
[07:58] <caveman> oh god im def not cuddly lmao

[07:58] <Maul555> how do i save a file using the nano editor in terminal?
[07:59] <caveman> i never did till about 2 months ago
[07:59] <Flannel> Maul555: ^ is ctrl, so ^O is ctrl-O

[07:59] <cani> flannel: how do you update the repositories?
[07:59] <caveman> im tired 0f having to work on my system all the time
[07:59] <Flannel> cani: after you've added universe, 'sudo apt-get update'
[07:59] <Maul555> arrenlex:  omg, i tried otu mandrake, shoo, i probably still have a mandrake cd lying around
[07:59] <cani> sudo apt-get update?
[07:59] <arfy> and redhat.
[07:59] <Flannel> cani: yep.  update, not upgrade.
[08:00] <arrenlex> Well I'm gone... good night everyone.
[08:00] <Maul555> caveman:  well if you would just finish, you wont have to, : D
[08:00] <Maul555> how do i save a file using the nano editor in terminal?
[08:00] <billy> Good night arrenlex.  Thanks for the good advice.
[08:00] <billy> ctrl-x

[08:00] <billy> it'll prompt for the save.
[08:00] <arrenlex> Maul555: ctrl+x, y, enter
[08:00] <billy> hit Y
[08:01] <Maul555> arrenlex:; oooh
[08:01] <billy> Maul555:  nano is all I use anymore.
[08:01] <caveman> if i add files do i have to rewgister them
[08:01] <caveman> so they will run
[08:01] <Maul555> ctrl+x just puts an x
[08:01] <billy> caveman:  do you mean installing programs via Synaptic?
[08:02] <Maul555> my ctrl key may be broken tho, but i doubt it..
[08:02] <billy> Maul555: try the other ctrl key.
[08:02] <Maul555> i did.. lol
[08:02] <caveman> ive allways used an installer or typed the comand in
[08:02] <cani> flannel: thanks, its downloading now... to install mysql query browser and mysql admin, they are also in the universe?
[08:02] <Maul555> billy:  there is a possibility i messed up Section "Extensions"
[08:02] <Maul555>         Option      "Composite" "0"
[08:02] <Maul555> EndSection
[08:02] <Maul555> gah... ooops
[08:02] <Maul555> nm that one
[08:02] <Maul555> PRETEND THIS NEVER HAPPENED
[08:02] <billy> Maul555:  change the 0 to "True".
[08:03] <Maul555> er, ok
[08:03] <billy> Caveman:  I've never had to register programs.
[08:03] <Flannel> cani: I... believe one is.  Not sureabout the other.  Try 'apt-cache search [stuff] '
[08:03] <caveman> ok thanks so much for the info
[08:04] <K-Rich> anyone good at scripting and familiar with zenity?
[08:04] <cani> flannel: thank you very much
[08:04] <caveman> i see im going to have to get another comp to experiment with
[08:04] <billy> Caveman:  sorry I'm not much help.  I don't think I understand your question.
[08:05] <caveman> well i used to make tools for yahoo if i added a msvb60dll is have to register it
[08:05] <caveman> so the programming would reconise it
[08:05] <Maul555> ok, sooo, lets say your ctrl key doesnt work for whatever reason, bot of em... any other way to save this file?
[08:07] <caveman> i really like this op system but i cant find certain things id like to have on here so maby if i can figure out how it works maby it can be made
[08:07] <XfceRules> Is there a way for Amarok to support / organize videos?
[08:07] <billy> Maul555:  i don't think so.  Just close and reopen with gedit.  Sounds like your keyboard is misconfigured.  Do you have windows logos and stuff?
[08:08] <Maul555> lol, i pop out my windows key on all my keyboards
[08:08] <XfceRules> caveman: what would you like it to do?
[08:08] <billy> Maul555:  make sure your keyboard is set to pc105 in xorg.conf.
[08:09] <Maul555> ahh, i know its set to 104
[08:09] <XfceRules> Maul555: what about remapping to null?
[08:09] <Maul555> but im editing my xorg.conf....
[08:09] <caveman> well one thing id like to get a yahoo chat client that has voice and anti boot  programs in it
[08:09] <Maul555> i cant save it!!!!
[08:09] <billy> Maul555:  just close the terminal, reopen another and press the up key.
[08:09] <Maul555> XfceRules: remaping to null?
[08:10] <billy> Maul555:  of course, change the nano to gedit or something.
[08:10] <caveman> dont get me wrong but i have gaim and well id like to work with it later when i understand how things work
[08:10] <XfceRules> Maul555 I know keys can be remapped so that they do different stuff, for example, nothing. Yeah, windows key sucks for a lot of games
[08:10] <Maul555> can anybody give me the name of an editor that doesnt need the ctrl key to save files?
[08:11] <billy> gedit
[08:11] <buggy_> vi
[08:11] <Flannel> Maul555: vim
[08:11] <cafuego_> Maul555: vim
[08:11] <Maul555> oooh, vim, i remember that from programming class
[08:11] <billy> vi and vim are tough, to me at least.
[08:11] <XfceRules> is there a program like amarok for video?
[08:11] <cafuego_> elvis, vi
[08:11] <billy> there's also joe.
[08:12] <hflappy> um anyone know wifi-radar and wonderin how come the signal quality doesn't show but the access points show up no prob...i have a rt8187 usb....my atheros shows the signal quality
[08:12] <h1st0> XfceRules: totem?
[08:12] <h1st0> XfceRules: What else do you need it to do besides play video?
[08:12] <cafuego_> hflappy: driver doesn't support signal strength reading
[08:13] <hflappy> hmm
[08:13] <hflappy> k
[08:13] <cafuego_> it'll probably get fixed at some stage in the future
[08:13] <billy> but if you're ever dumped to a command line with no GUI, you better know vim.
[08:13] <hflappy> guess i'll wait till new drivers come out ;(
[08:13] <XfceRules> h1st0 I have a LOT of videos, and want to search better...
[08:13] <cafuego_> billy: why?
[08:13] <Maul555> i "knew" vim... im still cratching my head as to how to save,  its like something, wq
[08:14] <hflappy> thx cafuego for info ;) ...kinda was hopin for a work around but ya guess i'll wait ;)
[08:14] <h1st0> XfceRules: ah I don't know of any of the top of my head.  Myabe search in synaptic
[08:14] <cafuego_> Most machines have sed, no need for vim
[08:14] <billy> cafuego:  well, that happened to me when experimenting with some backported Sarge's.  perhaps I should say, you should at least know vim.  But that's as easy as man vim, eh?
[08:15] <h1st0> All ubuntu machines have nano
[08:15] <Flannel> h1st0: He's having issues with his control key
[08:15] <Maul555> vim came up, apparently they have vim too
[08:15] <XfceRules> I don't have totem... I'll check that out. also, Amarok stops collecting info on music when it encounters too many errors. can I get it to ignore more errors?
[08:15] <Maul555> i can fix the ctrl problem if i can save the file lol
[08:16] <h1st0> Who ever came up with the default keys for vim should be shot.
[08:16] <Maul555> h1st0: fo real!
[08:16] <cafuego_> h1st0: why?
[08:16] <billy> h1st0:  aw c'mon.  they're cute.
[08:16] <billy> :wq
[08:16] <cafuego_> :x
[08:16] <Maul555> AAAAH, YAYA
[08:16] <cafuego_> :ZZ
[08:16] <Maul555> THX BILLY
[08:16] <cafuego_> Actually, no, just 'ZZ'
[08:16] <Maul555> again
[08:16] <billy> right on, Maul555
[08:17] <h1st0> The scroll keys etc...
[08:17] <XfceRules> I prefer gedit for that reason, or nano
[08:17] <XfceRules> but you have that ctrl allergy
[08:17] <cafuego_> h1st0: the arrow keys work if your terminal type isn't broken.
[08:17] <Maul555> yeah, im gona edit the keyboard layout and put in these lines and try to save...
[08:18] <Maul555> oh... hrmm... its set to generic layout, 105
[08:18] <Maul555> mabey i just need to switch keyboards, im gona try that before i have an anurism..
[08:18] <h1st0> cafuego_: I must be thinking of anothe reditor but still the whole : stuff is assinine
[08:18] <billy> Maul555:  maybe you jammed them when yanking the windows keys.  :D
[08:18] <h1st0> cafuego_: nano's interface is so much more user friendly.  Still not perfect but better.
[08:19] <Maul555> well, this keyboard is at least 6 years old..
[08:19] <thcmonkey> is there a gfx card compatibility page for beryl?
[08:19] <cafuego_> h1st0: nano is far too slow and limited
[08:19] <h1st0> They could have ctrl+x at the bottom instead of ^X etc...
[08:19] <Maul555> yar.. that doesnt make any sense to me iether
[08:19] <Maul555> how does ^ = ctrl
[08:19] <h1st0> cafuego_: for a text editor?
[08:19] <cafuego_> I don't know if it can even do a conditional regex search & replace.
[08:20] <h1st0> cafuego_: use sed for that.
[08:20] <cafuego_> h1st0: Yah
[08:20] <billy> thcmonkey:  someone here would probably help you if they knew the answer to your question.  since you're already in freenode, join #beryl.  They ought to know.  :)
[08:20] <cafuego_> h1st0: I don't want to have to save, exit, run sed, reopen.
[08:20] <thcmonkey> billy: cheers, i'm in there now
[08:20] <Flannel> thcmonkey: #ubuntu-effects for beryl support
[08:20] <h1st0> cafuego_: ^W
[08:20] <billy> thcmonkey:  love the name.  cheers!
[08:20] <thcmonkey> billy: lol cheers dude
[08:21] <Maul555> brb/afk
[08:21] <pschulz01> Greetings.. how do I restore a corrupted initramfs?\
[08:21] <h1st0> cafuego_: actually ^\
[08:21] <pschulz01> My ubuntu is dropping into busybox on boot.
[08:22] <hpevju> anyone know a howto install xfce on ubuntu server?
[08:22] <pschulz01> /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
[08:22] <Flannel> hpevju: `sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop`
[08:22] <foutrelis> pschulz01: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop?
[08:22] <Flannel> hpevju: and, if you're going to be using it as a desktop, you'll want to switch to the desktop kernel, from the server kernel, or you might get aggrivated at some response times
[08:23] <foutrelis> pschulz01: Don't mind my '?' at the end :)
[08:23] <h1st0> hpevju: or sudo apt-get install XFCE  but you won't get all the other apps etc.. that you would with xubuntu-desktop
[08:23] <h1st0> Flannel: didn't they ditch the server kernel?
[08:23] <hpevju> i did a sudo apt-get install xfce4
[08:23] <Flannel> h1st0: No. why would they?
[08:23] <Flannel> hpevju: that'll work too
[08:23] <billy> Flannel:  curious.  why xubuntu-desktop and not simply ubuntu-desktop.  because for server?
[08:24] <Flannel> billy: because he asked for XFCE, not Gnome
[08:24] <pschulz01> foutrelis: (I had the question about the corrupted initramfs.)
[08:24] <h1st0> Flannel: ahh nvm its still there.
[08:24] <billy> Flannel:  oh.  learned something new.  :)
[08:24] <hpevju> then how do i start xfce once apt-get is done ?
[08:24] <h1st0> hpevju: if you install xfce4 package just startx
[08:24] <foutrelis> pschulz01: I cannot help you with the corrupted initramfs : (
[08:25] <h1st0> hpevju: if you installed xubuntu-desktop reboot the machine.
[08:25] <h1st0> hpevju: or sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[08:25] <Flannel> hpevju: you'll also need to install xserver-xorg
[08:25] <hpevju> aha, its the server part i belive i need, thanx
[08:26] <pschulz01> foutrelis: I think I should be able to fix it by using ubuntu boot disk..
[08:26] <foutrelis> pschulz01: I confused you with hpevju. Sorry man :(
[08:28] <arooni> hey folks when i load up gizmo project (voip client) i get the error 'no audio input sources are available'.... how can i fix this?
[08:29] <billy> arooni:  l'm not familiar with that, but are you trying to peform something like a line in capture?
[08:30] <arooni> billy > i just want to receive voip calls
[08:30] <foutrelis> pschulz01: Maybe this can help http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1805485
[08:30] <arooni> but i need a line in (i have a sony laptop if it matters0
[08:30] <h1st0> billy: his mic is basically not working.
[08:31] <billy> arooni:  oh.  honestly I'm not sure.  perhaps what h1st0 said above is accurate.
[08:31] <billy> arooni:  a vaio?
[08:32] <h1st0> !sound > arooni
[08:32] <pschulz01> foutrelis: That is just what I'm after.. thanks.
[08:33] <billy> Perhaps there is a way to better integrate this chat with the forum.
[08:33] <billy> Some way of searching the forum without leaving the room.
[08:33] <foutrelis> pschulz01: np. I hope it 'll all work out ok. :)
[08:33] <hpevju> when i do "startx" i get "could not open default font fixed" what am i missing?
[08:34] <Kooka> cya all
[08:34] <billy> bye Kooka
[08:36] <billy> arooni:  you there?
[08:36] <Maul555> ok, xserver refuses to start, im in vim, i somehow got myself into insert mode by mashing some keys, not how the F^(@# do i save this!!!
[08:37] <arooni> billy i'm here
[08:37] <billy> Maul555:  `:wq`
[08:37] <Maul555> '?
[08:37] <kraut> moin
[08:37] <billy> Maul555:  that's just my way of demarcating things.  :wq
[08:37] <arooni> billy when i go to sound recorder, 'record from input' is blank.... icant select anything
[08:37] <Maul555> well, Shift+:, just give me ":"
[08:38] <fxr> hi just a quickie, can someone recommend an application that i can edit an iso image with.. i.e add a folder to the disk image.. dont seem to be able to do it with KB
[08:38] <billy> arooni:  right click the volume manager, then "Open Volume Control", then "Switches".
[08:39] <billy> Maul555:  you're in vim, and pressing shift-+ gives you : ?
[08:39] <billy> arooni:  there should be a box for "Line in Capture".  is there?
[08:39] <billy> arooni:  also, unmute the microphone in case it is.
[08:39] <Maul555> no,  "shift" + ":" gives me just a ":", and then i put wq at the end, hit enter, and it just goes down a line
[08:40] <kaushal> Maul555 : I have mailed to ubuntu forums
[08:40] <billy> Maul555:  OK.  try :w
[08:40] <Maul555> nope
[08:40] <Maul555> hey, im gona try mashing keys again
[08:41] <MukiEX> Okay, I might be fubar. I accidentally deleted /bin/ >_<
[08:41] <MukiEX> Is there any way to apt-get a replacement?
[08:41] <arooni> billy i dont see the box for line in capture
[08:41] <FP> GoodMorning all
[08:41] <billy> Maul555:  that's maybe a bad idea.  doesn't pressing the : alter the very bottom of the vim screen?
[08:41] <arooni> billy there is a capture tag
[08:41] <arooni> i mean tab
[08:42] <billy> arooni:  we may be using slightly different things.  try the tab.
[08:43] <Ashi> hey
[08:44] <billy> Hey Ashi.
[08:44] <Maul555> how do you edityour xorg.conf file from command line again... its sudo dpkg, something xorg.conf
[08:44] <Ashi> Hey Billy
[08:45] <billy> Maul555:  sudo vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf  .  NOTE:  I'm not using vim, but vi .
[08:45] <Maul555> no
[08:45] <Maul555> i mean the one that begins with sudo dpkg
[08:46] <billy> Maul555:  you may be thinking sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?
[08:46] <Maul555> YES!
[08:46] <billy> :)
[08:46] <hsn_> where can i get bacula 2.0 or newer open ssl .debs for ubuntu? i downloaded debian packages and they do not works, because they require libssl0.9.8 (>= 0.9.8c-1)
[08:46] <farid> How do I get to upgrade kde to 3.5.6
[08:46] <billy> Maul555:  trust me, you need this -->  http://people.debian.org/~debacle/refcard/refcard-en-a4.pdf
[08:49] <Maul555> i think i used the wrong tutorial for installing ati drivers, last time it was like sooo not this complicated.. last time, it took me 5 minutes!!!
[08:51] <J-_> Will kflickr work in Gnome?
[08:51] <billy> hsn_ : I think Ubuntu Edgy only has up to 0.9.8b .
[08:53] <billy> :)
[08:54] <Maul555> its ok, ive got x running again
[08:54] <billy> J-_ :  from what I understand KDE programs *will* work in Gnome, though perhaps a touch more slowly.
[08:57] <Askar> How do I solve this: NO_PUBKEY CC919A31E23C5FC3
[08:57] <billy> Askar:  what repository did you add?
[08:58] <Whebeft> i was trying to become an ubunterno on launchpad, and i registered my gpg key and whatnot, and they gave me some kind of code to decode to get my registration link, how do i do that?
[08:58] <Askar> automatix.. but it worked before I updated
[08:59] <billy> Askar:  I just want to be sure I understand you.  You upgraded to Feisty perhaps?
[08:59] <progek> Hey everyone
[08:59] <Askar> billy: no I updated automatix with updatemanager
[08:59] <billy> Hi progek.
[08:59] <eck> J-_, billy: they will run at the same speed, but it would probably take a bit longer to launch if you don't have any other kde applications open, because you will have to load all of the kde libraries
[08:59] <eck> it is the same with starting up a gnome session
[08:59] <billy> eck:  yeah....that's what I meant. :)
[09:00] <Maul555> does anyone recomend automatix?
[09:00] <billy> Maul555:  depends on who you ask.  I'm scared to go near it.
[09:00] <progek> a friend of mine hates linux with a passion, he loves windows and hassles me every day. He mentioned there is nothing linux can do which windows cannot. Is this really true since they are two completely different operating systems?
[09:00] <billy> Windows can't not suck.
[09:00] <billy> kidding.
[09:01] <progek> heh
[09:01] <Maul555> progek: depends, i know there are things linux can do that windows cannot...  but dont ask me what... lol
[09:01] <eck> !automatix
[09:01] <Pthag> Of course there's nothing linux can do that windows can't, it's running on a fucking computer
[09:01] <ubotu> automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[09:01] <eck> no one recommends it :-)
[09:01] <Pthag> The point behind computers is their ability to do what any other computer can
[09:01] <gnomefreak> Pthag: please watch your language
[09:02] <Maul555> im now using fglrx but i cant get 3d/gl hardware acceleration to work!!!!
[09:02] <Pthag> k
[09:03] <Madpilot> progek, Linux is very bad at being infected with viruses. That's a Windows specialty...
[09:03] <Maul555> what Madpilot means is that linux doesnt get virus like windows does...
[09:03] <progek> Madpilot, true
[09:03] <mneptok> Maul555: do NOT use Automatix or any other such scripts. please.
[09:04] <Madpilot> Maul555, thank you for translating my remark from Ironic to English. ;)
[09:04] <Maul555> mneptok: yeah, Envy didnt do anything for me but shut down x... lol
[09:04] <Maul555> Madpilot: lol, np  :p
[09:04] <progek> Envy? same prob here :)
[09:04] <anystone> :)
[09:04] <mkquist> progek - tell him u can use linux to boot from live cd and recover a windows crash...hehe
[09:05] <mneptok> progek: can you access a Windows machine from anywhere on the Internet using encrypted protocols and free tools?
[09:05] <progek> mkquist, I was thinking about that but there is a live cd builder for XP isnt there?
[09:05] <xukun> I wonder what is a good torrent client for Ubuntu?
[09:05] <progek> mneptok, nice one
[09:05] <Maul555> progek: of corse
[09:05] <billy> Askar, I'm not sure how to handle your problem. There are currently issues with the Automatix site.  Please join #automatix as they'll be more likely to assist you.
[09:05] <Maul555> progek:  try vnc or radmin
[09:05] <progek> I like vnc
[09:05] <mkquist> havent used it but true
[09:05] <mneptok> xukun: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install bittornado-gui
[09:05] <progek> but use ssh mostly
[09:06] <xukun> mneptok, thanks a lot
[09:06] <mneptok> np
[09:06] <Whebeft> did anyone here sign the ubuntu code of conduct?
[09:06] <gnomefreak> Whebeft: Yes and its better to ask that in #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:06] <Whebeft> mneptok, how would i go about decoding the code in the email they sent me
[09:07] <mneptok> Whebeft: with your GPG key
[09:07] <gnomefreak> Whebeft: what email client?
[09:07] <Whebeft> gnomefreak, gmail
[09:07] <Maul555> the only thing i use envy for is wiping off old versions of drivers i failed to install lol
[09:07] <billy> !envy
[09:07] <ubotu> envy is a Python script that eases installation of the official Nvidia and ATI drivers. Please see http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html . Developers may be interested in https://launchpad.net/products/envy - See also !Nvidia
[09:08] <gnomefreak> Whebeft: you might have to save it as a file in /home/ or something and decrypt it from CLI (cant remember command off hand as its 4am) but its simple command
[09:09] <Maul555> i may just be crazy enough to give envy another try, just because im tired of reading stuff for right now
[09:09] <Whebeft> gnomefreak, i'm new at ubuntu, i'm not sure how i do that
[09:09] <mneptok> Maul555: nVidia or ATI?
[09:09] <gnomefreak> Maul555: is using synaptic too hard?
[09:09] <Maul555> gnomefreak: ati
[09:09] <mneptok> via con dios
[09:10] <gnomefreak> Whebeft: should tell you in launchpad when you first downloaded it
[09:10] <Madpilot> Whebeft, just save the whole text of the email into a file, save it to your desktop, and then run gpg either from the command line or via seahorse to decrypt it
[09:10] <Maul555> gnomefreak: eh?
[09:10] <Maul555> gnomefreak: are you telling me i can do this thru Synaptic!!!!
[09:10] <gnomefreak> Maul555: yes
[09:10] <Maul555> GAAAAAH!%!@^!#&
[09:10] <Whebeft> madpilot, permission to pm?
[09:11] <mztik> I need help on this... http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_JRE_v6.0  -  It tells me to write the command: fakeroot make-jpkg jre-6-linux-i586.bin  ... Never seen the 'fakeroot' command before.. is this correct? Please check the link.
[09:11] <Maul555> gnomefreak: show me the light
[09:11] <gnomefreak> Maul555: add multiverse and universe and install flglx(or whatever the name of it is)
[09:11] <Madpilot> Whebeft, if it's about -offtopic, I just removed your ban there. What was that paste, anyway?
[09:11] <foutrelis> mztik: It's correct :)
[09:11] <Maul555> oh, well ive got fglrx installed
[09:11] <gnomefreak> fglrx is it
[09:11] <mztik> it doesn't work for me
[09:11] <Maul555> i cant count the number of times ive installed that today thru different sorces
[09:11] <mneptok> Madpilot: contents of the GPG mail he got
[09:12] <Whebeft> madpilot, it was an accident, i was trying to paste my question as i figured it was offtopic but it didnt copy correctly
[09:12] <foutrelis> mztik: I'm pretty sure I've used it before. Maybe try apt-cache search fakeroot and see if there are related packages?
[09:12] <cosmo_>  is there a way to get xchat to save channels so that it brings them up next time I start xchat? and if so how do I do it?
[09:12] <gnomefreak> !ati Maul555
[09:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ati maul555 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:13] <gnomefreak> !ati | Maul555
[09:13] <ubotu> Maul555: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:13] <Maul555> lol
[09:13] <mneptok> mztik: why do you need Java6?
[09:13] <Maul555> yeah umm, that the tutorial that just didnt work..
[09:13] <mneptok> gnomefreak: for instance, "a lot" is 2 words ;) :P
[09:13] <mztik> Is Java5 better?
[09:13] <gnomefreak> see :)
[09:14] <gnomefreak> mztik: for edgy and dapper yes
[09:14] <Maul555> ok, i went into synaptic and i allready have it!!!
[09:14] <mneptok> mztik: it's a HELL of a lot easier to install
[09:14] <mneptok> mztik: sudo apt-get install sun-java5-plugin
[09:14] <gnomefreak> Maul555: all you should have to do is configure it
[09:14] <gnomefreak> once everything is installed
[09:14] <Maul555> gnomefreak: tell that to my computer!1
[09:15] <gnomefreak> ati is harder than nvidia IMHO but i dont remember it being all that hard
[09:15] <nsx> hey, I'm trying to help a friend out.  he has ubuntu on his computer, and the alsa driver for his sound card seems to be really buggy (cirrus logic soundfusion).. skype won't work unless we use the oss version.  anyway, is there an easy way to get ubuntu to use the oss driver instead of the alsa driver, without fuss?
[09:15] <gnomefreak> i did it on breezy beta
[09:15] <billy> Time for me to crash.  Goodnight folks.
[09:15] <nevermind> !cups
[09:15] <ubotu> Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[09:15] <Maul555> gnomefreak: me niether, when i first installed ubuntu, it was with this card, on this mobo, and there was nothing to it, but now for some reason i cant do anything right when it comes to drivers!!!
[09:16] <billy> Bye foutrelis.
[09:16] <foutrelis> bye
[09:17] <billy> I'm out too.  Time for some shut-eye.

[09:30] <nevermind> !winmodem
[09:30] <ubotu> You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto

[09:36] <nevermind> Maul555: were you using the official drivers or ubuntu's ones?
[09:36] <coffeegrindah> has anyone used reconstructor?
[09:37] <ghetek> does anybody have a completely failsafe xorg.conf? i remember in hoary i used to be able to set to "vesa" and the graphics werent amazing but it always worked.
[09:37] <Maul555> hrmm...  both
[09:37] <nevermind> Maul555: well... i had better experience with manufacturer's drivers so...
[09:37] <Maul555> yeah, me too
[09:37] <nevermind> ghetek: what's your video card?
[09:37] <Maul555> ill give this one a try, but tomorrow, it time for me to hit the hay, thanks man
[09:38] <nevermind> Maul555: np
[09:38] <Maul555> night all/..
[09:38] <nevermind> night
[09:38] <ghetek> nevermind: its a usb external hard drive installation, its kinda meant to be portable so i need complete defaults
[09:39] <nevermind> well, you might wanna try vga drivers
[09:39] <ghetek> vga drivers?
[09:40] <visualnets> hello all I need some help to install Mozilla Seamonkey
[09:40] <nevermind> package is xserver-xorg-video-vga
[09:40] <tuxperger> hello...
[09:40] <ghetek> nevermind: if i apt-get install that package will it configure itself?
[09:40] <XfceRules> When I hit the volume up/down on my keyboard or headset, it adjust the bass instead of volume. How do I change it?
[09:41] <tuxperger> anybody got MH mailboxes to work in evolution/edgy?
[09:42] <nevermind> ghetek: probably you don't have to apt-get it, it's supposed to get installed by default, you may have to set it up in xorg.conf tho
[09:42] <yettenet> Can anyone tell me how I can change the workgroup I'm in? (in a samba network)
[09:42] <ghetek> nevermind: thats kinda where i have some issues, i dont really know how to do that
[09:43] <ghetek> the hd is in a usb case now and i can access its files
[09:43] <nevermind> yettenet: got to system/administration/shared folders/general
[09:43] <geek2go> has anyone ever messed with reconstructor
[09:44] <tuxperger> ...I'm now using sylpheed for only that reason
[09:44] <lycangodofwar> can anyone tell me how to use a higher screen resolution in ubuntu
[09:44] <nevermind> ghetek: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and find the line that says Driver "whatever" and change it for "vga"
[09:44] <tuxperger> In some ways it's better, but I hate it when software doesn't do what I want ;-/
[09:45] <ghetek> nevermind: will do thanks!
[09:45] <trond> lycangodofwar: Specify hsync and vsync of your monitor in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:45] <nevermind> ghetek: np
[09:45] <Askar> My taskbar buttons are very small...what to do?
[09:45] <Un1c0> or try: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:45] <geek2go> Grr.. I hate making LiveCD's.
[09:46] <trond> lycangodofwar: That is if you don't get higher resolutions under the settings --> screen resolution menu
[09:47] <eck> tuxperger: maybe you should conver to maildir/imap if only because it's better supported
[09:47] <yettenet> nevermind: I don't have such a thing :(
 what do you mean by  hsync vsync
[09:47] <tuxperger> eck: i have imap too (external server). These are historical mails
[09:47] <trond> lycangodofwar: Which screen resolutions are your monitor capable of?
[09:48] <lycangodofwar> not to sure
[09:48] <tuxperger> eck: feels a bit overkill to setup an imap server on a desktop machine
[09:48] <trond> Don't know which ones that worked under windows?
[09:48] <eck> tuxperger: well, i have used evolution with maildir before and i know that works
[09:48] <eck> there was a bug though where i had to manually enter the directory in gconf-editor
[09:49] <tuxperger> eck: that's precisely my problem!
[09:49] <eck> aha
[09:49] <trond> lycangodofwar: For instance, in xorg.conf you will find an entry called "Section Monitor"
[09:49] <eck> iirc you have to select a file that isn't the mail directory, and then you go into gconf-editor and change the string, and then when you open up evolution it works
[09:50] <eck> i filed a bug on it in launchpad some time early in the edgy release, it might have been fixed for feisty
[09:50] <lycangodofwar> it can do 1600 x 1200
[09:50] <trond> lycangodofwar: There you should specify something like this: HorizSync    31.0 - 94.0
[09:50] <trond>         VertRefresh  55.0 - 120.0
[09:50] <trond>  . But you have to figure out the correct values first. These are values for 1600x1200 75hz.
[09:50] <tuxperger> eck: thanks!
[09:51] <trond> Lycangodofwar: Ok, if you are capable of 75hz than I just provided values which should work ok
[09:52] <dcordes> i would like to install the latest madwifi drivers. do i have to blacklist the old one before? how do i do so?
[09:52] <eck> tuxperger: no problem. i can't find the bug anymore, so i guess it must be fixed :-)
[09:53] <tuxperger> eck: thanks a lot! Just did what you said and it works now.
[09:53] <chuck`_> With pure-ftpd, there seems to be a user set up by default to match my ubuntu login name/pw.  Anyone know how to disable this account if possible?  It's not in the users list in PureAdmin
[09:54] <tuxperger> sylpheed-claws is still one heck of a mailer ;-/
[09:54] <mneptok> eck: we switched LP to only show working features in Evolution instead of bugs. shorter list. ;)
[09:55] <ubuntu_> Hello. How do i view which hard drive is which? (hd0, hd1, etc)
[09:56] <nevermind> ubuntu_: system/adminsitration/partitons
[09:57] <gu> Hi!
[09:58] <eck> excellent :-)
[09:58] <nugenoa> Hello #ubuntu.
[09:59] <nevermind> ubuntu_: or you can try sudo fdisk /dev/hd? and then issue command "p"
[10:00] <nugenoa> If I want to remove the option to boot into Windows from grub's menu.lst, what exactly do I have to remove?
[10:03] <mkquist> nugenoa , just comment out the ones below the dividing line between the linux entries and the rest
[10:03] <nugenoa> Aye aye mkquist. Arigato!
[10:04] <mkquist> nugenoa - np enjoy
[10:04] <enyc> errm...
[10:04] <nugenoa> mkquist, one last question, I comment out the part that says chainloader +1
[10:04] <nugenoa> ?
[10:04] <enyc> I have dpkg-buildpackage -b 'ed the linux-image package whatnot...
[10:04] <enyc> I have looooads of deb/udeb files [!!] 
[10:05] <mkquist> nugenoa - in menu.lst everything below the divide
[10:05] <nugenoa> Aye.
[10:05] <yellow_chicken> how to tell machine not to start x?
[10:05] <enyc> I was rather hoping to create a single linux-image- whatnot like the ubuntu kernels provided
[10:05] <MrEgg964> Hi everyone :) I'm trying to find a way to mount a windows network drive (I'm using mount -t smbfs) that would correctly display French accented characters. Those characters are correctly displayed if I smb://myserver, but become black-squared-like signs when the drive is mounted. Anybody has any idea ?
[10:06] <enyc> hrrm wrong character set ?
[10:06] <MrEgg964> yes, most likely, but what should I do ?
[10:06] <enyc> MrEgg964: good question ;-)
[10:06] <H264> Hi
[10:06] <MrEgg964> :D
[10:07] <fentgphx> is anyone able to help me with the ubuntu gnome power manager?

[10:09] <real_aussie> New Question: doing "init 3" seems to have no effect--- how the f*ck do I get rid of X, to install a new video driver?  Is this because some wonderful idiot said "Oh, i don't understand "init" so I'll p*ss it off from the system!"?
[10:09] <H264> only now that I tried 7.04, it installed alright
[10:09] <nevermind> MrEgg964: try with iocharset=iso8859-6
[10:10] <MrEgg964> ok
[10:10] <H264> only I get a "no bootable disk" apon selecting the Linux (tux) in rEFIt
[10:10] <analou> why can't i install mysql??
[10:10] <nevermind> MrEgg964: and btw, i'd change my .smbcredentials to my root home folder
[10:10] <H264> for my 64bit 7.04 install
[10:10] <analou> sudo apt-get mysql-server
[10:11] <mkquist> yellow chicken - this should help - http://www.debianadmin.com/debian-and-ubuntu-linux-run-levels.html
[10:11] <analou> i can't install php5 and mysql-server
[10:11] <MrEgg964> Alright, it did make a change, but still no good.
[10:11] <analou> please help..
[10:11] <nevermind> MrEgg964: try now with iocharset=iso8859-15
[10:11] <MrEgg964> nevermind: you're right, I should and I will.
[10:11] <analou> please
[10:12] <Madpilot> analou, are you following the Ubuntu LAMP install page?
[10:13] <analou> yes..
[10:13] <nevermind> analou: simple, you're missing the install on the apt-get command :P
[10:13] <MrEgg964> nope, iso8859-15 takes me back to my squared-shaped signs :(
[10:13] <analou> i did..i just was not able to type..
[10:14] <nevermind> analou: have you enabled repos?
[10:14] <LysergicAcid> I just installed ubuntu, and booted up and logged in, and now all I have is a desktop background and a mouse pointer
[10:14] <LysergicAcid> what gives?
[10:14] <nevermind> analou: try this: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_MYSQL_Database_Server
[10:14] <H264> anybody have any iMac 64bit experience?
[10:14] <analou> Note, selecting mysql-server-4.1 instead of mysql-server
[10:14] <analou> Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
[10:14] <analou> requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
[10:14] <analou> distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
[10:14] <analou> or been moved out of Incoming.
[10:14] <analou> Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
[10:14] <analou> the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
[10:14] <analou> that package should be filed.
[10:14] <analou> The following information may help to resolve the situation:

[10:15] <H264> *from
[10:15] <nevermind> i believe they go from 1 to 2something
[10:15] <MrEgg964> ok ; it's funny though that I do get those characters right if I smb:// my network drive directly.
[10:16] <nevermind> MrEgg964: samba is a misterious universe :)

[10:18] <analou> i still can't install mysl and php5
[10:18] <rambo3> kraypius, thats the power of /media directory

[10:18] <kraypius> i mean /dev/media/whatev
[10:18] <XfceRules> If I backup my old drives and reformat them to ext3 (from NTFS) I should get significantly improved performance, namely, file system searches on that drive, correct?
[10:19] <mneptok> XfceRules: yes
[10:19] <analou> i have followed the instructons written in there.. but still i wasn't able to install
[10:19] <rambo3> kraypius, no /media/hda
[10:19] <tumbleweed> NFS bug in edgy?: http://paste.omnia.za.net/5
[10:19] <mneptok> analou: the best bet is to get the server install ISO and install the LAMP target
[10:19] <kraypius> oh oops ic thanks
[10:19] <F00BaR> analou, sudo apt-get install mysql-common
[10:19] <real_aussie> Anyone? Doing "init 3" seems to have no effect--- how do I get rid of X, to install a new video driver?
[10:19] <rambo3> kraypius, there is auto mount utility in edgy
[10:20] <XfceRules> mneptok dramatic improvements? not excited about moving around almost 1.2 terabytes
[10:20] <kraypius> rambo3, how to access it?
[10:20] <tumbleweed> I can repeatedly cause this with firefox (NFS-mounted home)
[10:20] <rambo3> kraypius, ask ubotu
[10:20] <mkquist> real_aussie - try #telinit 3
[10:20] <rambo3> !Diskmount | kraypius
[10:20] <kraypius> oh well i can use fstab to automount
[10:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about diskmount - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:20] <mneptok> XfceRules: the biggest selling point is the *FAR* greater relaiability of ext3 over NTFS

[10:21] <F00BaR> !php4

[10:21] <real_aussie> mkquist: Thanks, I'll try that: but of course it will throw me off here... bye.
[10:21] <F00BaR> ubuntu_, how do i remove php5 is ssh
[10:21] <F00BaR> and install php4
[10:21] <mkquist> later
[10:21] <rambo3> analou, you can have them both , just see that you cofigure apache config to php5 module
[10:21] <mneptok> F00BaR: man apt-get
[10:21] <XfceRules> mneptok is there a utility you might recommend for backing up a drive, for restoration after reformat?
[10:21] <ubuntu_> F00BaR: don't know
[10:22] <mneptok> XfceRules: rsync
[10:22] <F00BaR> mneptok, i know about it but i need the command to remove
[10:22] <mneptok> F00BaR: man apt-get
[10:22] <XfceRules> mneptok thanks
[10:22] <F00BaR> i mean
[10:22] <F00BaR> do i do apt-get remove php4
[10:22] <F00BaR> or will it not work
[10:22] <F00BaR> do i do apt-get remove php5 *
[10:22] <mneptok> +sudo
[10:23] <mkquist> real_aussie - any luck? that was quick
[10:23] <rambo3> analou, a2enmod is tool for external modules when you install apache2 . ex . a2enmod php5
[10:23] <F00BaR> package php5 not insdtalled
[10:23] <analou> what if it says some pacjages are broken??
[10:24] <real_aussie> Nup: command was accepted without error, but nothing happened. (I logged in as root on Ctrl-Alt-F2 & entered telinit 3)
[10:24] <XfceRules> mneptok grsync not bad?
[10:24] <mkquist> real_aussie - http://www.debianadmin.com/debian-and-ubuntu-linux-run-levels.html check that out
[10:25] <mneptok> XfceRules: dunno it
[10:25] <XfceRules> mneptok checking it out. it is a gui version
[10:25] <Player> I'm sure you get this a lot, but how do I enable SSH server on Ubuntu Desktop?
[10:26] <XfceRules> mneptok recommended by add/install
[10:26] <Player> Should I mess with init.d manually, or is there a better way?
[10:26] <rambo3> Player, for what
[10:27] <Player> I want to be able to SSH into that box
[10:27] <rambo3> Player, /etc/init.d/ssh start
[10:27] <Shub> I'll just throw my questions out there. I'm using latest ubunty edgy and after playing around with the ati drivers (alot) i cant chose "mark for reinstall" on the synaptic xorg-driver-fglrx.. anyone have any ideas why?
[10:27] <rambo3> i never use ssh thats just a guess
[10:30] <osfameron> Player: you want to be running sshd maybe?
[10:31] <Player> yes
[10:31] <Player> I'd like it to start automatically when the machine boots
[10:31] <F00BaR> any ideas

[10:32] <magik> anyone know how to get the gd-module for php5 to get xpm xbm support? i installed apache2 as well
[10:33] <rambo3> F00BaR, what are you trying to install
[10:33] <rambo3> !pear
[10:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pear - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:33] <rambo3> magik, is that php::pear
[10:34] <real_aussie> mr quist (I'm sorry I don't have your proper handle - it's not on my clipboard) -- the html said that everything in ubuntu was either level 1 or levels 2, 3, 4, 5 are same as level 2.  The driver installation (an nvidia install-script!) complains if I'm running in run level 1, because it says various services are not enabled at that level.  Who's brilliant idea was to collapse all the run levels 2,3,4,5 to 2?  How do I unfuc
[10:34] <real_aussie> k this brilliant idea?
[10:34] <F00BaR> rambo3, ispconfig
[10:34] <F00BaR> rambo3, its a control panel
[10:34] <magik> heh, u know i don't know what it is exactly, but it allows gd to use TTF fonts to draw in images dynamically over web pages...
[10:34] <magik> what's pear again?
[10:35] <magik> oh... well i have everything installed... that's the weird part
[10:35] <rambo3> magik, extensin library for php like image drawing libreries and such
[10:35] <magik> i don't understand why it wont work... i've tried uninstalling everything and starting over, but it still wont get xbm and xpm support
[10:35] <magik> even tho the packages are listed as installed
[10:36] <Player> alright, how do you normally start up services in Ubuntu?
[10:36] <magik> i'll try installing through pear
[10:36] <rambo3> Player, do you have SSH server installed at all?
[10:36] <rambo3> magik, pear is in repos http://pear.php.net/manual/en/introduction.php
[10:36] <F00BaR> rambo3, any ideas?
[10:37] <Player> rambo3, according to synaptic I have Open SSH Server installed

[10:42] <nhy> Does herd 5 have bcm43xx driver built in?
[10:42] <lisapc> when I use usb port#1 with my mouse, the pointer at times flies around the screen out of control.  Is this an USB problem?
[10:43] <mkquist> real_aussie - so u dont want to run at level 1?..
[10:43] <nevermind> lisapc: hard to say, it may be a mouse issue, an usb issue or a video issue...
[10:43] <nevermind> lisapc: what's the mouse brand?
[10:43] <lisapc> MS usb mouse,
[10:43] <rambo3> nhy, yes
[10:43] <lisapc> it doesnt seem to happen in usb port #2
[10:43] <rambo3> i have it at least on modprobe
[10:44] <nevermind> lisapc: have you tried it on different ports?
[10:44] <real_aussie> mkquist: *I* don't mind: the install script is the thing that's complaining about run level 1
[10:44] <nhy> Are you sure?
[10:44] <lisapc> nevermind, scroll up
[10:44] <F00BaR> ??
[10:44] <nhy> I've tried and tried and I can't get it to work.
[10:44] <F00BaR> anyone know what it means
[10:44] <lisapc> what could be wrong with usb port #1?
[10:44] <nevermind> lisapc: oh, then probabbly it's a bad usb port
[10:44] <nevermind> have your mobo checked
[10:45] <lisapc> nevermind, LOL
[10:45] <nhy> I think I read somewhere that you need a patch for the 4318. Can you confirm that?
[10:46] <nhy> This is the one thing thats stopping me from using linux
[10:46] <rambo3> too bad
[10:46] <mneptok> nhy: Broadcom refuses to open their drivers. it's Broadcom's issue, not Linux.
[10:47] <mneptok> nhy: vote with your wallet
[10:47] <rik_> In gedit, for an unkown reason, all my file permissions have been altered to read-write-execute. How can I permanently remove the execute permission from ALL my '.txt' files ?
[10:47] <ghetek> guys, what is wrong with this syntax? partimage -b -z1 -o save /dev/sda1 /home/hellouser/backup/$answer.gz
[10:47] <nhy> mneptok, there's an open source driver
[10:47] <anthropus> currently i use window$ but i'm planning (and eager) to install ubuntu. should i wait for the final release of feisty fawn, or should i install edgy eft now and then upgrade to feisty as soon as it's released?
[10:48] <nevermind> anthropus: depends on your will
[10:48] <trond> anthropus: Feisty is supposed to be release 7 April, running edgy 6.10 and bery 0.2.0 here, love it :)
[10:48] <anthropus> hmm
[10:48] <anthropus> ok
[10:48] <anthropus> :)
[10:48] <anthropus> i'll wait for feisty
[10:49] <anthropus> and then "dive" into ubuntu
[10:49] <trond> Just migrated back to linux after some years without linux, good to be back and no traces of microsoft (exept some ntfs volumes) left :)
[10:49] <nhy> By the way, I just joined the bcm43xx channel and it seems that bcm43xx is broken in feisty
[10:50] <dilch> why does ubuntu refuse to put lxdvdrip into the repositories?
[10:50] <Xtyn> does someone know how to install an integrated sd cardreader?
[10:51] <Xtyn> texas instruments
[10:51] <dilch> i'll be needing answers. Thank you.
[10:51] <nhy> What's the difference between the Softmac and mac80211 drivers?
[10:52] <ghetek> what is wrong with my script? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10586/
[10:53] <dilch> i'll be needing answers about lxdvdrip, and i'll be needing them now. Thank you.
[10:53] <magik> ah hah, so i think i figured it out, i have to install the pear package manager first? apache2 distro through ubuntu doesn't include it?
[10:54] <mkquist> real_aussie - so why not run the script at a diff runlevel? like 3?
[10:55] <Shub> nevermind, mind if i ask you wich package i can use for Mondo? redhat, fedora, mandriva, opensuse, suse, debian, gentoo ... :p
[10:55] <lisapc> My line speed is 12.3 Mbps. Is that good?
[10:55] <dilch> real_aussie, are you aboriginal?
[10:56] <nevermind> Shub: i use debian packages
[10:56] <Shub> k, i actually found it in synaptic. Should probably have checked there first ;)
[10:56] <mkquist> real_aussie - nm that last
[10:57] <mneptok> why not use Ubuntu packages?
[10:57] <nevermind> but there's a ubuntu package also: http://packages.ubuntu.com/edgy/utils/mondo
[10:57] <nevermind> Shub: right
[10:57] <Shub> oh, doesnt list it on the mondo page
[10:57] <dilch> mneptok, i would, but they refuse to include lxdvdrip into the repositories
[10:57] <nevermind> Shub: you have to enable universe repos
[10:57] <Smoke2k> Does any girl want to celebrate st. patricks day with me ?
[10:57] <mneptok> dilch: "they?"
[10:57] <ultimobyte> exit
[10:58] <Shub> yeah i got installed now
[10:58] <dilch> mneptok, the keepers of the official repositories
[10:58] <dilch> that 'they'
[10:58] <nevermind> mneptok: why the big deal?
[10:58] <mneptok> nevermind: huh?
[10:58] <Smoke2k> I will make your crotch turn green from my herpes so you can really celebrate
[10:58] <Smoke2k> I have advanced case
[10:58] <mneptok> dilch: feel free to package it for multiverse
[10:58] <dilch> mneptok, i think i'll have to
[10:59] <nevermind> mneptok: about the lxdvdrip package
[10:59] <Smoke2k> Happy st. patricks day almost everyone
[10:59] <dilch> mneptok, i'm just unsure as to why it's not there already ... but yeah, i'll package it
[10:59] <dilch> gives me something new to do, anyway ;)
[10:59] <mneptok> dilch: because no one has cared about it yet?
[11:00] <real_aussie> dilch: I was born here: what does that make me? All that the aboriginals have got on me is a few extra generations. I've only got one generation. I don't think quantity matters. I't like *not* being a virgin: have sex once or 60,000 times: you're no longer a virgin. Isn't it all about the feeling of belonging?
[11:00] <dilch> mneptok, that's why i was surprised. With so much superfluous crap in the repositories, the best command-line dvdripper wasn't there?
[11:00] <huckster> hello
[11:00] <dilch> real_aussie,  i guess that's a "no"
[11:01] <mneptok> !offtopic
[11:01] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[11:01] <dilch> real_aussie, so someone who has immigrated to australia isn't a 'real aussie'?
[11:01] <huckster> I successfully installed samba. Unfortunately, I can't seem to be able to see my Ubuntu machine from Windows XP on laptop. Any ideas?
[11:01] <dilch> anyway, yeah it's OT
[11:02] <kraypius> /dev/sda2 /media/winxp ntfs rw,umask=0222,uid=kraypius 0 0
[11:02] <kraypius> /dev/sda4 /media/SHARE vfat rw,umask=0222,uid=kraypius 0 0
[11:02] <kraypius> why is root the only user who can write to those?
[11:02] <dilch> kraypius, because they are MS partitions
[11:02] <lisapc> can I install Opera on Edgy?
[11:03] <rambo3> kraypius, dont write to ntfs
[11:03] <dilch> kraypius, just the way it works when mounting them
[11:03] <dilch> rambo3, i write to it all the time
[11:03] <huckster> rambo3 what's wrong with that?
[11:03] <kraypius> i just want to be able to save file and drag and drop to the FAT patition
[11:03] <kraypius> partition**
[11:03] <anthropus> does k3b (a cd/dvd burner for kde) run on a gnome environment?
[11:03] <huckster> kraypius you should be able to do that.
[11:03] <trond> lisapc, yup
[11:04] <kraypius> huckster, only root can write to them for some reason
[11:04] <kraypius> those 2 lines are from my fstab
[11:04] <mneptok> kraypius: be sure the mount point has tho proper permissions
[11:04] <mneptok> *the
[11:04] <dilch> ntfs-g seems to be holding up, with no write corruption so far. This is a new development, so there may be problems, but for once I haven't had them
[11:04] <kraypius> are those lines incorrect for allowing the user: kraypius  to write?
[11:04] <nevermind> krang: i use dmask=777 and fmask=777 on my w$ share and works for all users
[11:05] <lisapc> trond, how?
[11:05] <nevermind> sry, taht was fro you kraypius
[11:05] <kraypius> nevermind, so i should just add those to what I have there?
[11:05] <crazy_bus> is it possible to use your broadband account and modem on another persons computer in a different house?  Because the ubuntu guide tells me I need to install drivers for the built in dialup modem
[11:05] <mneptok> lisapc: it's in the repos
[11:05] <kraypius> should i take anything out?
[11:05] <nevermind> kraypius: actually i don't use umask
[11:06] <kraypius> let me see your fstab
[11:06] <nevermind> kraypius: just try
[11:06] <real_aussie> dilch: I certainly don't feel like I belong to either of my parent's European countries: they both got displaced and disenfranchised by Hitler's lot: and now they're naturalised Aussies. *I*'ve never felt the need for better roots than simply growing up here in this far wide brown land. I certainly don't feel like a native of Latvia/Russia or other European principality.
[11:06] <lisapc> mneptok, ah great :)
[11:06] <ADminS> how i can make mic working under Linux ?
[11:06] <ADminS> i tried alot but its not working :S
[11:06] <trond> Lisapc: Administration --> system sources. Enable the restricted sources. Then start synaptic and search for Opera
[11:07] <anthropus> does k3b (a cd/dvd burner for kde) run on a gnome environment?
[11:07] <JLuca> hi all I have a very strange problem: my webcam is working fine with capturing software such as camorama or gqcam but it doesn't work at all neither with kopete nor with amsn.
[11:07] <lisapc> mneptok, any ideas why my mouse pointer goes crazy and flies around the screen sometimes?
[11:07] <trond> Lisapc: Good to see that your are fond of norwegian software btw :)
[11:07] <mneptok> ADminS: alsamix
[11:07] <lisapc> trond, :)
[11:07] <mneptok> lisapc: bad USB port?

[11:08] <my-kairi> where can i get support for beryl-vidcap?
[11:08] <mneptok> lisapc: poor BIOS?
[11:08] <JLuca> could anybody tell me why (I compiled by myself my pwc module, following posts on the ubuntu forum)
[11:08] <lisapc> it juts jumped 5 secs ago
[11:08] <kraypius> ty
[11:08] <lisapc> mneptok, poor bios?  really?
[11:08] <mneptok> yeos
[11:08] <Menasim1> I cant install packeges
[11:08] <lisapc> mneptok, whats the fix?  new mb?
[11:08] <Menasim1> I think there is mising files
[11:08] <mneptok> we have a Dell here whose BIOS undervolts the USB, and Ubuntu thus sees *no* input devices
[11:09] <kraypius> oh cool u can put samba shares in fstab
[11:09] <lisapc> mneptok, No candidate version found for opera
[11:09] <ADminS> mneptok: mic boss is 100% but no i can't hear voice from mic and am sure mic is working because i tested it with Windows
[11:09] <nevermind> kraypius: :) just make sure to apt-get smbfs
[11:09] <solkaris> Does anyone know how to remove a folder from the Places menu?
[11:09] <mneptok> lisapc: did you update?
[11:09] <lisapc> mneptok, does that mean i need to replace the mb?
[11:09] <kraypius> k
[11:09] <lisapc> mneptok, sudo aptitude update
[11:10] <steckdose2007> ADminS: have you install drivers`?
[11:10] <nevermind> lisapc: he means to upgrade your bios
[11:10] <dilch> real_aussie, ah, you are the child of immigrants ... my family has been here in aus for 5 generations. I find children of immigrants are more likely to try and prove their "australian-ness". The term 'real aussie' is often used by racists, that's why i asked you. These 'real aussies' are seldom real aussies (ie. Aboriginals), but more the sons of immigrants eager to have an identity.
[11:10] <kraypius> nevermind, do i need smbclient as well?
[11:10] <ADminS> steckdose2007: i don't know to be honest am hearing voice when i run any song so i think thats mean driver installed
[11:10] <lisapc> mneptok, No! its a new laptop

[11:11] <trond> lisapc: hmm, you may have to do a refresh in synaptic
[11:12] <lisapc> trond, i did that already
[11:12] <trond> lisapc: or terminal--> apt-get update
[11:12] <ADminS> steckdose2007:  00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) <--- this output of lspci
[11:12] <trond> ok that is weird
[11:12] <ADminS> ops
[11:12] <mneptok> lisapc: what does "new" have to do with it?
[11:12] <lisapc> mneptok, ok
[11:12] <ADminS> i meant this one 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01)
[11:12] <lisapc> mneptok, maybe a BIOS update will fix it
[11:13] <jamey-uk2> Can someone help me with my apt-get remove problem?
[11:13] <steckdose2007> ADminS: perhaps the driver for your mic are not the same one
[11:13] <ADminS> steckdose2007: so can you help me to know if it is the same or not :)
[11:13] <lisapc> trond, it doesnt find opera.  any other ideas?
[11:14] <lisapc> thats weird. I have all repos enabled, yet cant find opera
[11:14] <didatus> hi@all
[11:14] <nevermind> lisapc: just get Opera from here: http://www.opera.com/download/index.dml?platform=linux
[11:15] <lisapc> nevermind, ok
[11:15] <nevermind> and then just doubleclick the .deb
[11:15] <nevermind> either way i prefer Firefox the most
[11:16] <nevermind> ADminS: do you see any otehr sound device on lspci?
[11:16] <ADminS> nevermind: nope
[11:16] <lisapc> damn! it says ERROR: conflict with package Opera :(
[11:16] <real_aussie> dilch: damn - damn - damn : you're right! YOU'RE RIGHT! I'm over compensating. (Curse you, Berkely!) OK: whadya suggest?: I'm 1st gen: northern european by genes, but aus by outlook: I used to use "TheFamousBlurt" since I invented a particular smiley face in about 1975 after reading "Breakfast of Champions" by Kurt Vonnegut.
[11:16] <lisapc> nevermind,  i downloaded that file you gave and it says ERROR: conflict with package Opera!   did it break my edgy now?
[11:17] <trond> Lisapc: Download directly from their site
[11:17] <mneptok> real_aussie / dilch: enough.
[11:17] <mneptok> stop. now.
[11:17] <trond> Lisapc: I think they have a deb
[11:17] <dilch> real_aussie, now that you referenced Vonnegut all is forgiven :)
[11:17] <lisapc> trond, i dl from the websire nevermind gave
[11:17] <dilch> yes sir
[11:17] <lisapc> trond, how can I now reverse what it did?
[11:17] <nevermind> ADminS: enable all tracks you get on edit/preferences and check what happens if you enable them
[11:18] <nevermind> lisapc: you didn't broke edgy
[11:18] <real_aussie> sorry: OK, any more on how to install an NVIDIA driver that (a) does NOT want X running, but (b) does NOT want single-user mode?
[11:18] <lisapc> trond, its from opera direct anyway
[11:18] <ADminS> edit/preferences?
[11:18] <trond> Lisapc: Don't think there is a problem?
[11:18] <jamey-uk2> wols_: any ideas?
[11:18] <barata> hallo all, my Alt-F2 is dead in both gnome & xfce4
[11:18] <nevermind> lisapc: try to do it from terminal: sudo dpkg -i package-name.deb
[11:18] <trond> Hmm I wonder if opera use less memory than firefox
[11:18] <lisapc> nevermind, opera loads
[11:19] <trond> Haven't used opera in a long time
[11:19] <lisapc> nevermind, it said ERROR: conflict with package Opera.  But it seems to load ok!  how come?
[11:19] <barata> I have a feeling that xfce4's Alt-F2 is related to Gnome's, am I right?
[11:19] <trond> lisapc: Don't think it installed anything if you got that message
[11:19] <jamey-uk2> Does anyone know why apt-get doesnt remove "lighttpd" package because of this error: "invoke-rc.d: initscript lighttpd, action "stop" failed."
[11:20] <nevermind> never got such error...
[11:20] <lisapc> trond, it did
[11:20] <mneptok> real_aussie: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules && sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[11:20] <dilch> real_aussie, the driver doesn't want X running? These the normal nvidia-glx, nvidia-glx-lgacy ones?
[11:20] <lisapc> nevermind, but i doouble cliked on the file and installed it from the GUI
[11:20] <Stonekeeper> hi. Can anyone help me get a Highpoint raid card working in ubuntu?
[11:20] <mneptok> jamey-uk2: ensure Lighty is running before you uninstall
[11:21] <trond> lisapc: If you can find the package in synaptic, uninstall it completely and reinstall the one from the opera website?
[11:21] <lisapc> nevermind, GDebi Package installer
[11:21] <jamey-uk2> mneptok: but why :@ stupid script, its already not running - i dont want to mess with the conf file (its invalid)
[11:21] <Stonekeeper> i got a chicken and egg situation because the raid card hosts all the drives in the system
[11:21] <lisapc> trond, i told you already! its from the opera website
[11:21] <mneptok> jamey-uk2: read what i said again.
[11:21] <lisapc> trond, opera_9.10-20061214.6-shared-qt_en_i386.deb
[11:21] <mneptok> jamey-uk2: ensure Lighty *************** is ******************** running before you uninstall
[11:21] <nevermind> jamey-uk2: check this out https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/dapper/+source/lighttpd/+bug/68401
[11:22] <nevermind> lisapc: right, that's the one
[11:22] <nevermind> does it work?
[11:22] <dilch> jamey-uk2, it needs to run, as shown by the error ... the script is trying to stop lighttpd first, and exiting when it can't find it running
[11:22] <steckdose2007> ADminS: sry but i must go..nice day
[11:22] <ADminS> thx steckdose2007 :D
[11:23] <lisapc> nevermind, yeah it  runs
[11:23] <ADminS> u 2
[11:23] <lisapc> nevermind, can I ignore then that Error?
[11:23] <nevermind> lisapc: yup, probably just a version warning
[11:23] <lisapc> ok
[11:23] <nevermind> ADminS: sry, yes, edit/prefferences
[11:23] <lisapc> nevermind, it even installed an Icon in the menu
[11:24] <ADminS> what is edit/prefferences :D
[11:24] <nevermind> in alsamixer
[11:24] <ADminS> aha
[11:24] <ADminS> ok
[11:24] <real_aussie> mneptok & dilch: I was trying to use NVIDIA's installer script from http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html which has the two requirement sof r(a) no X & (b) not single user -- I'll try mneptok's suggestion for using the restricted module instead.
[11:24] <ADminS> already all enabled
[11:24] <barata> I have a feeling that xfce4's Alt-F2 is related to Gnome's, am I right?
[11:25] <barata> hallo all, my Alt-F2 is dead in both gnome & xfce4
[11:25] <nevermind> ADminS: do you have a 'commuters' tab?
[11:25] <morpheus74> Hello.
[11:25] <ADminS> nevermind:  no
[11:26] <kraypius> nevermind, now I cant read or write to the drives. here is what I have now:
[11:26] <kraypius> /dev/sda2 /media/winxp ntfs rw,dmask=777,fmask=777 0 0
[11:26] <kraypius> /dev/sda4 /media/SHARE vfat rw,dmask=777,fmask=777 0 0
[11:26] <ADminS>  Master       PCM          Mic       Mic Boos    Mic Boos     Capture       Mix        Caller I    Docking-   <Internal>    Internal    Off-hook  <-- this all
[11:26] <ADminS> these*
[11:26] <nevermind> ADminS: any other tab besides reproduction?
[11:26] <ADminS> no
[11:26] <formation> Please what are you say?
[11:27] <morpheus74> I'm having trouble connecting wireless.  I've configured my wifi card with NDSI wrapper to work at home with my cable modem using a wireless router, but I'm at another location that uese a DSL wifi modem.  Any suggestions?
[11:27] <nevermind> kraypius: well, as i remember, on my own drive i used umask=000 and on the network shares i used dmask and fmask, sry bout that
[11:27] <formation> hello
[11:27] <nevermind> ADminS: guess it's not recognizing audio capture then
[11:28] <nevermind> ADminS: have you checked for audio drivers?
[11:28] <kraypius> anything else i should add before i save and reboot?
[11:28] <nevermind> kraypius: whay reboot?
[11:28] <nevermind> why*
[11:28] <nevermind> just do sudo umount -a and then sudo mount -a
[11:28] <kraypius> i dunno
[11:28] <sebrock> anyone got skype up and running on the x64 version of Edgy?
[11:28] <nevermind> :) i hardly reboot ubuntu
[11:29] <kraypius> okay so now I have
[11:29] <kraypius> /dev/sda4 /media/SHARE vfat rw,umask=000 0 0
[11:29] <larson9999> linux rocks!
[11:29] <kraypius> !
[11:29] <dilch> kraypius, those aren't the right fstab entries. You can add umask=0000 or change the dmask=0000 fmask=0111
[11:29] <ADminS> nevermind: look i opened from command line alsamixer and i just make all 100% that wat i did ,,but seems u talking abut GUI so what GUI i should open?
[11:29] <Menasim1> I cant install packeges
[11:30] <dilch> kraypius, that should work now
[11:30] <kraypius> 000 or 0000 ?
[11:31] <nevermind> ADminS: errr, volume control?
[11:31] <nevermind> dilch: actually that it's a fstab entry
[11:32] <nevermind> 3 0's or 4 are the same
[11:32] <dilch> kraypius, and if you want to read and write to ntfs partitions, install ntfs-config
[11:32] <mfd> hmm, kraypius from bhf?
[11:32] <Helmi> all voip programs report errors with my headset (ubs) device. any ideas what the problem could be?
[11:32] <kraypius> ya
[11:33] <kraypius> and bluehell #linux
[11:33] <mfd> great
[11:33] <mfd> !
[11:33] <nevermind> Helmi: what errors?
[11:33] <dcordes> my iwconfig keeps setting my essid automatically to "WLAN" when i up or ifup my interface. how can i avoid this? i want it to be set to nothing
[11:34] <Helmi> nevermind: skype e.g. "problems with sound device"
[11:34] <ADminS> nevermind: ok all enabled
[11:34] <nevermind> Helmi: does it work with regular sound?
[11:34] <mneptok> dcordes: sudo iwconfig $interface essid any
[11:35] <nevermind> ADminS: did you get another tab besides reproduction?
[11:35] <Helmi> nevermind: yes - but wait a sec - now my usb stuff has a general problem - i'll be back in a few mins
[11:35] <ADminS> yes
[11:35] <real_aussie> mneptok: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules && sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx failed on the "linux-restricted-modules" one (the middle of three commands), but I checked the Synaptic Package Manager, and "linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17-10-generic" and a couple of similar entries nearby were checked (on), I'll now install the nvidia glx one...
[11:35] <nevermind> ADminS: ok, check out there, you should have a mic capture thing, check it
[11:35] <morpheus74> How can I get this old Dell running Ubuntu to work with the wifi card consistently?  I can get a spotty connection, but when I run under WinXP it works just fine.  Any ideas?
[11:35] <ADminS> ok
[11:36] <apokryphos> !wifi
[11:36] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:36] <dcordes> @mneptok: well thanks but that's not what i'm looking for. also my iwconfig used to keep the essid i typed in. for example when i set the essid to foobar it is reset to WLAN on reboot, ifdown/up
[11:37] <mneptok> dcordes: pastebin /etc/network/interfaces
[11:37] <dcordes> ok
[11:38] <thcmonkey> anyone know anything about hi-def gfx cards?
[11:39] <kraypius> someone was just saying i need ntfs-config if i want to write to ntfs? im not seeing that package
[11:39] <Huffalump> pothead, you mean like DRM-enabled cards?
[11:39] <Huffalump> kraypius, check out ntfs-3g
[11:39] <kraypius> ahh
[11:39] <kraypius> k
[11:39] <dcordes> mneptok: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10591/
[11:40] <nevermind> either way i do not write on ntfs partitions (neither i have ones)
[11:40] <kraypius> well im feelin lucky today
[11:40] <mneptok> dcordes: change "wireless-essid WLAN" to the essid you want, or remove the line
[11:41] <dcordes> mneptok: great thanks
[11:41] <nevermind> k, leaving now... bye all
[11:41] <kraypius> bye thx for help
[11:42] <gorski> can i change the write permition on directory My Documents(Windows XP)
[11:42] <phomes> does anyone know what the "Installed (local or obsolete)" status in synaptic mean?
[11:43] <Madasoka> johooooooooo
[11:43] <sebrock> Im having a problem with Skype here
[11:43] <sebrock> Says libaudio.so.2 is missing, but I have it?
[11:44] <Madasoka> well its lunix, what can you expect?
[11:44] <gorski> can i change the write permition on directory My Documents(Windows XP)
[11:44] <UB`> sebrock try read this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1143584
[11:45] <UB`> gorski sudo chmod ...
[11:45] <mneptok> gorski: no' as Linux has no concept of NTFS pyermissions. you need to change the permissions of the mount point
[11:45] <UB`> oh yes
[11:45] <OuZo> hi, i need to convert a 1280x1024 ogg video i made to 800x600 . i know i must use ffmpeg but i dont know the command. is there a gui ap for this or does anybody know the command. thanks
[11:46] <sebrock> UB`, why can I locate the file on my system already then?
[11:46] <dv5237_> hello, is it possible to get two monitors on one computer whit dapper?
[11:46] <mneptok> sebrock: it's not in your $PATH
[11:47] <sebrock> mneptok, ok so how do I add it so skype will use it?
[11:47] <bimberi> phomes: packages that you have installed manually (using dpkg or gdebi for example) that aren't in the activate repositories
[11:47] <mneptok> locate libaudio.so.2
[11:48] <sebrock> yes
[11:48] <mneptok> where is it?
[11:48] <dv5237_> is dual monitor supported in dapper?
[11:48] <sebrock> /usr/lib/libaudio.so.2
[11:48] <magik> hey, can anyone help me out with some apache2/php5/gd problem? I'm having problems getting xbm support enabled... i just installed the pear package manager, then intalled the image_xbm package and then restarted apache, but xbm suppor still doesn't show up in php_info()
[11:49] <sebrock> mneptok, /usr/lib/libaudio.so.2
[11:49] <mneptok> sebrock: PATH=${PATH}:/usr/lib
[11:49] <mneptok> err
[11:49] <mneptok> sebrock: export PATH=${PATH}:/usr/lib
[11:49] <sebrock> ok or?
[11:49] <mneptok> then try
[11:49] <sebrock> ok
[11:49] <sebrock> nope
[11:50] <sebrock> mneptok, : skype: error while loading shared libraries: libaudio.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[11:50] <gorski> mneptok, but i have ntfs disk write permition
[11:50] <mneptok> sebrock: *shrug* no idea. sorry, i don't use Skype.
[11:50] <sebrock> mneptok, how do I remove that thing you just told me?
[11:50] <mneptok> sebrock: ls -l /usr/lib/libaudio.so.2
[11:50] <phomes> bimberi: strange, I have not installed anything manually. This is a herd 4 install that I have been upgrading since its release
[11:51] <sebrock> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 2007-02-13 12:11 /usr/lib/libaudio.so.2 -> libaudio.so.2.4
[11:51] <mneptok> sebrock: taht file is a symlink
[11:51] <sebrock> I see that
[11:51] <mneptok> sebrock: complain to Skype about not honoring symlinks :)
[11:51] <bimberi> phomes: or installed a package from a repository that you've since disabled?  or perhaps it has been removed from the repository by its administrator(s)
[11:51] <sebrock> hmm...
[11:51] <mneptok> sebrock: ls -l /usr/lib/libaudio.so.2.4
[11:52] <sebrock> mneptok, how do I remove that path?
[11:52] <sebrock> mneptok, nevermind I will uninstall it
[11:52] <mneptok> sebrock: it will be gone next itme you open a terminal
[11:52] <phomes> bimberi, perhaps the latter then. Thanks
[11:52] <sebrock> ok
[11:53] <bimberi> phomes: yw :)
[11:54] <sebrock> mneptok, how do I remove the package?
[11:54] <mneptok> sebrock: how did you install it?
[11:54] <sebrock> dpkg
[11:55] <mneptok> dpkg -r
[11:56] <sebrock> ok
[11:56] <morpheus74>  I've configured the network setting in Ubuntu accroding to the wiki, but I still cannot get access.  Please help!
[11:56] <sebrock> dpkg -r skype?
[11:57] <sebrock> I want a complete removal, inlcuding connfig files
[11:58] <UB`> sebrock dpkg -P
[11:58] <UB`> purge every files
[11:59] <sebrock> UB`, what does purge mean?
[11:59] <UB`> search in the dictionary :)
[11:59] <Heroin> sebrock purge means totally remove
[11:59] <UB`> yep
[11:59] <Heroin> to purge > to remove all instances of one
[11:59] <CheshireViking> any know of a website that i can download video codecs? I'm looking for the "MWV1" codec, the developer website doesn't list it anymore, I found an installer for windows, but no other traces of it on the web?
[11:59] <sebrock> UB`, aslo should the command be followed by the package name or what?
[11:59] <gorski> can i change the write permition on directory My Documents(Windows XP)
[11:59] <Heroin> UB' thanks for your help yestrday.. my server is running fine now
[11:59] <bimberi> morpheus74: System -> Administration -> Networking and reconfigure the Wireless connection
[11:59] <UB`> sebrock of course
[11:59] <UB`> man dpkg
[11:59] <sebrock> ok
[12:00] <UB`> Heroin I'm happy for you :)
[12:00] <UB`> gorski you obtained an answer a few minutes ago
[12:01] <gorski> sorry
[12:01] <Jancker> hi all
[12:02] <morpheus74> bimberi, Thanks.  I think I did this by deselecting the box next to the wireless icon, making adding the essid, and then rechecking the box next to the wireless icon.  Is there something different I should be doing?  The weird this is, this wifi card works fine when at home.  Should it auto detect the wireless network?
[12:03] <tarelerulz> Is there any large distro that work on usb hard drives that are like Ubuntu in there compleness
[12:03] <sebrock> UB`, one more question: I installed libqt3-mt i386 also, how would I remove this? same way? or will I also delete other x64 things?
[12:03] <UB`> same way or use aptitude
[12:04] <UB`> aptitude pure or remove <package>
[12:04] <bimberi> morpheus74: that's the usual way.  However there is networkmanager which simplifies the process a lot.  Not sure if it works with ndiswrapper but it's worth a try...
[12:04] <bimberi> !networkmanager | morpheus74
[12:04] <ubotu> morpheus74: networkmanager is an application to make (wireless) networking Just Work. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/NetworkManager
[12:04] <analyzer> hello all
[12:05] <binary0> hello analyzer
[12:05] <analyzer> does ubuntu have packages support by arch
[12:05] <analyzer> i mean if i have athlong-xp
[12:05] <analyzer> can i install optimized for my cpu apps?
[12:05] <analyzer> or just common i686?
[12:06] <sebrock> UB`, now it started to download the file instead?????
[12:06] <sebrock> as something was broken?
[12:06] <Nokao> hi: i need help with ubuntu. My db2 stopped to work, with some troubleshooting i discovered that there is some script that is removing the "chmod u+s" flag of a file (/home/db2inst1/sqllib/security/db2ckpw) at every reboot. That file makes db2 get the user passwords from the system. How can i find that damn script and avoid the problem?
[12:06] <UB`> sebrock what did u do?
[12:06] <perverted> hi friends, I currently have two network cards in my ubuntu box eth0 eth1. eth1 is setup as default, how do i get certain programs to use eth0's ip to access the internet?
[12:06] <ikonia> Nokao: look at the /home/db2inst1/sqllib/security/db2ckpw and see what its doing
[12:06] <morpheus74> bimberi, I'm a newbie, is !networkmanage | morpheus74 a command line command?
[12:06] <UB`> perverted man route
[12:06] <sebrock> UB`, aptitude purge <.deb>
[12:07] <ikonia> perverted: use an iptables rule
[12:07] <UB`> sebrock packege name go without .deb
[12:07] <ikonia> perverted: or change the routing table
[12:07] <sebrock> UB`, ok...
[12:07] <jrib> Nokao: grep maybe but that would take a long time... I would leave it overnight if I couldn't think of another approach
[12:07] <UB`> example: aptitude remove skype
[12:07] <sebrock> UB`, well It could not be found now
[12:07] <sebrock> UB`, so I guess I uninstalled it then
[12:07] <UB`> well done
[12:08] <sebrock> heh tnx
[12:08] <jrib> Nokao: I'd start with my users directory
[12:08] <perverted> is the setup i have different from "vhosts" ?
[12:08] <Nokao> ikonia : it's a binary
[12:08] <kaso> What's the command to see which process is using a certain file? (thus locking it)
[12:08] <UB`> sebrock test it with "dpkg -l | grep <packega>"
[12:08] <ikonia> Nokao: so its not a script then, so its the binary thats asking for the password
[12:08] <jrib> kaso: fuser
[12:08] <UB`> dpkg -l lists every package you have installed/removed/etc...
[12:09] <Nokao> yes but who is removing it's +s flag?
[12:09] <Nokao> it needs it to take the password from the sistem
[12:09] <ikonia> Nokao: on the binary ?
[12:09] <Nokao> yes: that file must be u+s chmodded
[12:09] <ikonia> chmod it then
[12:09] <Nokao> at every reboot something removes it's u+s
[12:09] <ikonia> I see
[12:09] <ikonia> well grep through the init scripts
[12:09] <bimberi> morpheus74: no it's a trigger to ubotu to address the !networkmanager factoid to you :)
[12:09] <sebrock> UB`,  gives nothing
[12:09] <Nokao> how can i discover who is doing that?
[12:10] <ikonia> Nokao: grep through the init scripts
[12:10] <kaso> jrib and what does it mean if i do fuser /var/lib/apt/lists/lock and nothing is returned, why is it still locked if noone is using it? and how can i unlock it
[12:10] <morpheus74> I see.
[12:11] <jrib> kaso: do you have synaptic or update-manager open?  Or some other apt or dpkg process running?
[12:11] <Nokao> i did a find /etc/init.d | xargs grep chmod
[12:11] <morpheus74> bimberi, Thaks for your help.
[12:11] <Nokao> but nothing with -R results
[12:11] <Nokao> and nothing to that file
[12:11] <UB`> sebrock not possible, paste the command you use
[12:11] <kaso> Nope, ive just booted up about 4min ago, i opened irc and firefox, went to install something with aptitude and it blocked telling me it was locked
[12:11] <ikonia> Nokao: just grep through the init scripts
[12:12] <sebrock> UB`, I did
[12:12] <Madasoka> windows roxx!
[12:12] <sebrock> UB`, dpkg -l | grep skype_debian-1.3.0.53-1_i386.deb
[12:12] <UB`> none!
[12:12] <Madasoka> lunix suxx!
[12:12] <far0k_work> Hi how can i edit my hosts file so all domains resolve to one ip?
[12:12] <UB`> just "skype"
[12:12] <ikonia> Madasoka: thats great, please stop trolling
[12:12] <sebrock> ok
[12:12] <UB`> without anything
[12:12] <Madasoka> far0k: Use vista
[12:12] <ikonia> !opas
[12:12] <ikonia> !ops
[12:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about opas - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:13] <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
[12:13] <sebrock> UB`, that also gives nothing
[12:13] <jrib> Nokao: what are the permissions on the file?  Can any user change those permissions or would it have had to have been a script with root privileges?
[12:13] <Madasoka> ikonia I'm trolling?
[12:13] <ikonia> good morning
[12:13] <Madasoka> ?
[12:13] <larson9999> wth? firefox has been locking up on me lately when i bookmark a site.
[12:13] <nalioth> Madasoka: this is a support channel, all other topics need to go to #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:14] <sebrock> UB`, that also gives nothing, just a new prompt
[12:14] <Nokao> jrib -r-s--x--x  1 root
[12:14] <larson9999> oh, seems i'm not the only one that happens to :)
[12:17] <Unclown> Hello
[12:18] <kraypius> there is a little padlock showing over one of my directories and i cant write to it from user: kraypius . I tried chmod -R 777  as root but i still cant write to it as kraypius
[12:18] <nalioth> kraypius: oooh, bad idea
[12:18] <jrib> kraypius: what directory?
[12:19] <nalioth> kraypius: chmod -R will mess you all up if improperly used
[12:19] <kraypius> a directory containing my web dev files
[12:19] <jrib> kraypius: join us in #ubuntu-classroom
[12:20] <kraypius> im there
[12:21] <sebrock> is it common that sound does not work after resuming a suspend state?
[12:22] <Unclown> Anyone know much about Linux and RAID (SATA) cards and the DDF-x drive initialisation format? I have a potentially dead RAID card I can't get to function - I managed (stupidly) to get it all set up nicely, in RAID-1 (Seagate 320GB), but then things came unstuck. Basically, I can't get the card functioning, and don't have another or similar to use to get the data off with. Was wondering if anyone knew if the Linux kernel does DDF-x recognit
[12:24] <PepoBSD> i have problem with broadcom and ndiswrapper says hardware present, driver present
[12:24] <PepoBSD> iwconfig says eth1 like my wireless
[12:24] <PepoBSD> but if i do iwlist scan says no such device
[12:25] <Unclown> Pepo: What does 'ifconfig' show?
[12:25] <enyc> Unclown: well
[12:25] <enyc> Unclown: if the format... has header etc...
[12:25] <PepoBSD> just eht0 and lo
[12:25] <enyc> Unclown: but otherwise its just a raid-1 mirror...
[12:26] <enyc> Unclown: you may be able to mount filesystems with careful use of the offset= facility  to copy your data off..
[12:26] <PepoBSD> Unclown, if i do ifconfig eth1 up : SIOCSIFFLAGS
[12:26] <Unclown> enyc: when I do a 'cfdisk /dev/<drive>' it wants me to zero disk...
[12:26] <enyc> Unclown: i.e. even if the partition-table has 55AA missing or whatever... you may be able to do something like "mount /dev/sda /mount/recovery -o ro,offset=32256" or similar
[12:26] <sebrock> is it common that sound does not work after resuming a suspend state? anyone?
[12:27] <enyc> Unclown: yes... there is probably some header or nobbled-partitiontable courtesy of the way the RAID controller writes the disks
[12:27] <enyc> Unclown: Im saying... you may be able to directly mount the relevant partition if you can see where it starts in bytes relative to the beginning of the disk as you see it now
[12:27] <enyc> Unclown: in order to recover your data
[12:28] <enyc> Unclown: since you have a mirror arrangement
[12:28] <Unclown> pepo: Not 100% on that - try a google search?
[12:28] <enyc> Unclown: do you understand ??
[12:28] <mneptok> PepoBSD: iwlist $interface scan
[12:29] <rambo3> PepoBSD, what is is maped as ? sudo lshw -C network |grep logical
[12:29] <Unclown> enyc: I think I see what you're saying - currently one of the drives is disconnected - so I can stuff^^fix this drive and my data is ok if all goes south :-) Ta!
[12:29] <enyc> Unclown: err....
[12:29] <enyc> Unclown: if you send me the first 128 sectors of the disk ill tell you what I can see/think...
[12:29] <Unclown> Well, being cautious of course
[12:29] <enyc> Unclown: erm... What partitions did you have on the raid?
[12:30] <PepoBSD> Unclown, yes, but see this i do m-a a-i ndiswrapper then i need ndiswrapper-util >= 1.8.1 and i have 1.8 how i can find it?
[12:30] <PepoBSD> cos ndiswrapper-modules need that
[12:30] <Unclown> pepo: that is over my head sorry - I can't help any further
[12:31] <Unclown> Enyc: Umm - mind explaining how I do that? (disk sectors)
[12:31] <enyc> Unclown: erm... What partitions did you have on the raid?
[12:31] <enyc> Unclown: ill explain the other in a min ;-)
[12:31] <PepoBSD> rambo3, logical name eth0 logical name eth1
[12:32] <Unclown> 100MB /Boot......4GB Linux SWAP.......4GB FAT32 SWAP........ummm...60GB NTFS ......60GB Ext3 / ...60GB Data1......60GB Data2... something like this anyway.
[12:33] <enyc> o
[12:33] <enyc> hrrm
[12:33] <enyc> i see
[12:33] <enyc> so the partition you need to recover from is not at the beginning
[12:33] <enyc> ok
[12:33] <enyc> fine
[12:33] <enyc> anyway
[12:33] <apokryphos> !enter | enyc
[12:33] <ubotu> enyc: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[12:33] <enyc> you have the disk in as /dev/sd?? and you are booting from another disk... ?
[12:33] <[BTF] Chm0d> hey guys how do i find the busid for my vid card?
[12:33] <oxigen> how can i start script.sh on boot?
[12:33] <rambo3> PepoBSD, so  "iwlist eth1 scanning " returns nothing
[12:34] <[BTF] Chm0d> and its not in xorg
[12:34] <enyc> apokryphos: I was just thinking that myself ;-)
[12:34] <apokryphos> =)
[12:34] <Unclown> Currently running LiveCD Ubuntu Dapper 6.06
[12:34] <PepoBSD> interface doesn`t support scanning: no such device
[12:35] <enyc> Unclown: if you "dd if=/dev/sda count=128 of=128sectors.bin" ... that will copy the first 128 512-byte sectors of /dev/sda to "128sectors.bin"
[12:35] <bimberi> [BTF] Chm0d: lspci | grep VGA
[12:35] <[BTF] Chm0d> thx
[12:35] <enyc> Unclown: so I can see the partition table remnants and soforth at teh beginning (64k of data)
[12:36] <enyc> Unclown: need some way of sending it to me ;-)
[12:36] <piranesi> anybody who help me with wpa_supplicant? I get a "no suitable AP found"
[12:36] <[BTF] Chm0d> bimberi: i got this do I put this exactly as it is in my xorg? 01:00.0
[12:36] <rambo3> PepoBSD, ok , i never used ndiswrapper . only iwconfig and dhclient  for wirelsess
[12:37] <bimberi> [BTF] Chm0d: BusID   "PCI:1:0:0"
[12:37] <Unclown> Enyc: Did that, have a 64k file named as such - I have e-mail (web) access - what suits you?
[12:37] <[BTF] Chm0d> ty very much bimberi
[12:37] <bimberi> [BTF] Chm0d: yw :)
[12:37] <enyc> Unclown: see /msg sent to you
[12:38] <Unclown> Enyc: Will try t figure out how :-)
[12:38] <enyc> Unclown: oh... i wrote to _you_ rather than to #ubuntu... it should appear as another window... if you are in irssi you need to use ctrl+n to switch windows
[12:39] <Unclown> Enyc: Got it thanks :-)
[12:39] <Unclown> Have tried a transfer - will e-mail as well?
[12:40] <enyc> email yes
[12:44] <Unclown> Enyc: mail sent.
[12:44] <kraypius> whats the best media player to install?
[12:45] <Pici> !best
[12:45] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[12:46] <kraypius> we
[12:46] <kraypius> well, for instance, on windows i prefer winamp
[12:46] <gordonjcp> kraypius: xmms will probably be fairly suitable then
[12:46] <Pici> kraypius: xmms or beep media player will be similar to you
[12:46] <kraypius> kthx
[12:48] <enyc> Unclown: Part 2, 90KB written to "/home/enyc/128sectors.bin"
[12:48] <kraypius> hmm beep can load winamp skins!
[12:48] <enyc> Unclown: $ hexdump -C 128sectors.bin | less
[12:49] <enyc> Unclown: caught on phone
[12:50] <naught102> freenet's not available as a ubuntu .deb yet?
[12:52] <Unclown> Enyc: No probs - some of it looks like part of the controllers config I have seen in its onboard logfile... the '0020' '00ff' etc...
[12:52] <enyc> Unclown: yes... i dont recognize this!
[12:53] <enyc> Unclown: also I can't see the ptbl even theer... looks like there may well be quite a bit of header info
[12:54] <enyc> Unclown: hrrm _assuming_ the normally visible part of the disk is contiguous on-disk (** NOT re-organized / split into blocks by the raid controller**) ... you will be able to mount partitions... but you will need to 'find them' on the disk space
[12:55] <enyc> Unclown: i.e. you will need to work out the offset in bytes... and they can be mounted readonly one at a time using -o ro,offset={number}
[12:55] <Unclown> Enyc: Ummm - the controller isn't entirely hosed - it seems to work partially - but not reliably. Am thinking about whether I should nuke one of the 320GB drives, put RAID controller back in, leave it to do its thing (sometimes takes a nbight to 'reset' itself so it works, then you reboot, and its dead again...), then boot LiveCd like now, which seems to be able to talk to native SATA connected drive - and do 'ghost'? type partition copy?
[12:55] <enyc> Unclown: i dont know etc... it could eb done
[12:55] <enyc> Unclown: I wouldnt touch the existing disks myself
[12:56] <simona> ciao a tutti!
[12:56] <enyc> Unclown: cant really tell you much more.. inteseting to see though
[12:58] <OuZo> how can i install SDL? thanks
[12:59] <Unclown> Enyc: When it does work, it seems to boot up as though everything is normal (dies on boot - think in part to new mobo/lots of hardware changes) - so the partiton etc seems to _generally_ be intact... might try that, and not waste any more of your time. Thanks very much for the help! Much appreciated! (And I learnt some things too! :-)
[12:59] <kraypius> how do i get apt to tell me if a package is already installed?
[12:59] <enyc> Unclown: ;-)
[01:00] <jrib> kraypius: apt-cache policy package_name
[01:00] <jrib> !apt | kraypius
[01:00] <ubotu> kraypius: 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)
[01:00] <enyc> Unclown: mail me again when youve sorted it...
[01:00] <CoRnJuLiOx> the latest ubuntu package is marked 6.10-i386 for Intel and AMD processors, right?
[01:00] <enyc> CoRnJuLiOx: err release...
[01:00] <enyc> CoRnJuLiOx: latest release is 6.10
[01:00] <Unclown> Enyc: No probs. Once again, thanks for the help! :-)
[01:00] <CoRnJuLiOx> enyc: yeah, i'm hunting for a torrent
[01:00] <CoRnJuLiOx> :-/
[01:01] <Cryoniq> Where is gnome-update manager in Edgy and is it a good idea to use it? =)
[01:01] <sisplau> restricted drivers manager rooolzzzzzzzzzz
[01:01] <sisplau> :DDDDDDD
[01:01] <kraypius> i dont get it.. it says I installed PHP5 but when i run "php" it says command not found
[01:02] <jrib> kraypius: to get the command line client you need to install php5-cli
[01:02] <kraypius> thx
[01:02] <enyc> CoRnJuLiOx: 6.06.1=dapper 6.10=edgy.. well you dont really need a torrent?  theres loads of mirrors on http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/downloadmirrors
[01:02] <Cryoniq> Just noticed 2.18 is released and thinking if I should update from 2.16 (and if it will work with beryl, but that is for another chat room)
[01:02] <enyc> Cryoniq: hrrm ... backported package needed?
[01:02] <jrib> Cryoniq: gnome 2.18 is not available on the stable releases
[01:02] <CoRnJuLiOx> enyc: i've got kTorrent open right now and my cable connection hasn't been what you'd call 'stable'
[01:03] <Cryoniq> Ah.. so even if gnomes official pages tell 2.18 is out it is not on stable release list?
[01:03] <kraypius> can i have php5-cli without php5?
[01:03] <enyc> Cryoniq: well it may be on _gnome_'s stable release
[01:03] <Cryoniq> true :)
[01:03] <enyc> Cryoniq: that doesnt mean that is what is included in ubuntu-edgy 'stable ubuntu'
[01:04] <jrib> !timebasedreleases | Cryoniq
[01:04] <ubotu> Cryoniq: Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 18 months to 5 years. More info at http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases
[01:04] <spinster> hello people how i can unignore one person from my ignore list, I'm Running BitchX
[01:04] <enyc> Cryoniq: ubuntu-edgy was released 2006/10 and "frozen" before that point...
[01:04] <Cryoniq> I understand :)
[01:04] <kraypius> jrib, can i run php5-cli without php5 or does it need it?
[01:04] <IdleOne> spinster, /unignore nickname should work
[01:04] <Cryoniq> Makes sense also =)
[01:04] <serfrs> can anyone tell me how to disable screen blanking  (i'm running openbox)
[01:05] <jrib> kraypius: I don't know.  php5-cli should automatically install whatever you need
[01:05] <spinster> IdleOne: nope is not that command
[01:05] <enyc> kraypius: "apt-cache show php5-cli" will show you the dependancies
[01:05] <kraypius> jrib, well i installed php5 first but i dont want it if i dont need it
[01:05] <kraypius> k
[01:05] <serfrs> i've tried xset -dpms, xset s off, and even xset s force off
[01:05] <spinster> Somebody knows ?
[01:05] <IdleOne> spinster, www.bitchx.org or #bitchx might be more help
[01:05] <jrib> kraypius: well you can do what enyc said or try to remove php5 and see if it wants to remove php5-cli as well
[01:05] <Cryoniq> So maybe we can expect 2.18 in Feisty Fawn then :)
[01:05] <jrib> Cryoniq: yes
[01:05] <Daverocks> spinster: /ignore -r ?
[01:05] <Daverocks> oh well, too late
[01:06] <enyc> Cryoniq: if you really want to run latest versions of everything you may not want to be using ubuntu as-is... you may want to be compiliting everything yourself or using a continuois-high-maintenance-distribution for that sort of thing
[01:06] <Hammwell> how do i install "libapache2-mod-apreq2" when apt-get tells me "Package libapache2-mod-apreq2 is not available, but is referred to by another package"
[01:06] <Cryoniq> =P.....
[01:06] <kraypius> says it needs PHP5-common
[01:06] <enyc> kraypius: this means that if you install php5-cli it will install php5-common ....
[01:06] <jrib> !info libapache2-mod-apreq2
[01:06] <ubotu> libapache2-mod-apreq2: generic Apache request library - Apache module. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.07-1 (edgy), package size 56 kB, installed size 188 kB

[01:07] <ubotu> Hammwell: 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
[01:07] <enyc> jrib: may not have universe enabled
[01:07] <Cryoniq> enyc, I rather want a stable system, that is why I abandoned Windows totaly after all :)
[01:07] <enyc> jrib: exactly ;-)
[01:07] <mlankhorst> lol
[01:07] <Cryoniq> And so far Edgy been very stable and working very good for me :)
[01:07] <enyc> Cryoniq: well yes... so dont expect the absolite latest everything
[01:07] <enyc> Cryoniq: you are worth being in the position that you can re-install everything that you are using...
[01:07] <enyc> Cryoniq: if need-be... i.e. got the right notes/files
[01:07] <Hammwell> jrib: so how do i get it from the "universe" ?
[01:07] <Cryoniq> He he.. thats why I ask first and check if there might be possible to improve and keep stability :)
[01:08] <enyc> Cryoniq: you can run into unexpected hardware/software combination problems..
[01:08] <jrib> Hammwell: read ubotu's message about enabling universe
[01:08] <Hammwell> jrib: ok thx.
[01:08] <jrib> Hammwell: if something isn't clear there, just let us know
[01:08] <enyc> Cryoniq: so you should try to be in position that you can restore what you have now if need-be
[01:09] <morpheus74> I'm back with problems.  I'm now able to connect wireless, but the connection is so spotty (e.g. I can connect to some sites, but google.com and other sites will not load.)  Any idea what's going on?
[01:09] <Cryoniq> True :) I kept myself from experimenting this far. I am rather doing that on test box beside this one then :)
[01:09] <DiMiX> j /ubuntu-fr@irc.freenode.net

[01:10] <mlankhorst> it's a miracle my system doesn't break every upgrade

[01:10] <kaushal> How to change the timezone from PST tro EST
[01:11] <mlankhorst> then again, it probably would break if i didn't recompile kernel bzImage and loop module every time
[01:11] <Cryoniq> Hey, btw.. isn't there some other open source virtualisation software around that does what VMWare does? Someone mentioned something, but I seem to forgot what
[01:11] <mlankhorst> qemu or xen?
[01:12] <serfrs> can anyone tell me how to disable screen blanking  (i'm running openbox)

[01:13] <zyclop> kjempe, just ask
[01:14] <kjempe> ok
[01:14] <kjempe> i tried to install firefox 2.0 on dapper but failed at first. as i tried to re-establish the before-status, i accidentally broke the old firefox. now the new firefox works but the old one is not installable any longer.

[01:17] <perverted> does anyone know how i could have certain programs use certain nics on my ubuntu box? i have eth0 and eth1 with two different internet sources
[01:17] <perverted> i could do it a cheesy way... disable eth0, run what i need that uses eth1. then enable eth0 and run whatever i need that uses it

[01:19] <jrib> kjempe: "trying to overwrite `/usr/bin/firefox', which is the diverted version of `/usr/bin/firefox.ubuntu'"  does that remind yuou of anything
[01:19] <perverted> MythrilSword: i want to run eggdrop on each eth device, in that case they would have to use different server lists, id prefer each process to have their own device, unless u know another way?
[01:19] <kjempe> neither file exist
[01:19] <perverted> so that it uses both ips
[01:20] <kjempe> that's why i really don't know what's going wrong
[01:20] <jrib> kjempe: the package system still thinks it does, did you delete these files manually?
[01:20] <kjempe> yes
[01:20] <kjempe> i guess
[01:21] <MythrilSword> perverted: if eggie1 connects to ..irc.undernet org, resolve it and set up route that a connection to that goes through NIC1, same for all eggies,servers, might be a bit of work,but it would work, i dont know of a quicker fix

[01:21] <jrib> kjempe: don't do that, that causes the package manager's info to be inaccurate.  Have you ever used some kind of script regarding firefox?

[01:22] <cable_guy> hello
[01:22] <cable_guy> can someone help me please? i have a serious issue concerning hardware acceleration in games
[01:22] <enyc> kaushal: I would think you can "sudo tzconfig" but there might be better ways
[01:22] <kaushal> I have command line
[01:23] <cable_guy> on both of my machines: ibm thinkcentre and thinkpad, one with intel graphics chip and the other with ati radeon
[01:23] <IdleOne> you can also click on the clock and chose preferences and set it there I believe
[01:23] <kjempe> yes, i used some script
[01:23] <cable_guy> both freeze when i run games like second life and diablo 2 under wine
[01:23] <kjempe> i'll post it at that pasting-site
[01:23] <cable_guy> any idea what's causing it?
[01:23] <cable_guy> it's so weird that i have it on both machines
[01:23] <kjempe> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10600/
[01:24] <cable_guy> i tried feisty and edgy and it happens every time
[01:24] <enyc> cable_guy: do those games normally work under that version of wino on any machine?
[01:24] <IdleOne> cable_guy, shot in the dark but how much ram do the machines have
[01:24] <cable_guy> IdleOne, both 512, i think
[01:25] <cable_guy> enyc, simple games that usually work
[01:25] <enyc> cable_guy: usually work under wine on other machines?
[01:25] <IdleOne> cable_guy, also like enyc said does that version of wine run those games
[01:25] <Heroin> Anyone have a mailserver?
[01:25] <cable_guy> IdleOne, Diablo 2 is well supported, and second life is *native*
[01:25] <cable_guy> so it's no a wine issue
[01:26] <MythrilSword> Heroin: have 2 .. i won't let you stab them with needles! :)
[01:26] <Heroin> MythrilSword can i PM u for a second?
[01:26] <MythrilSword> sure
[01:26] <cable_guy> i'm also using stock drivers and configuration
[01:27] <enyc> cable_guy: aah native game
[01:27] <enyc> cable_guy: you may need restricteddrivers (like ati fglrx) for what you need
[01:28] <cable_guy> enyc, tried that and it did not work for me (i guess my card is legacy). the problem is also with intel graphics which has no restricted
[01:28] <cable_guy> is that a serious bug in ubuntu or my machines are somehow fucked up? i'm going nuts here
[01:28] <cable_guy> tried to reinstall like 12 times already and i get the same results every time
[01:30] <enyc> cable_guy: hrrm... good question..  maybe some kind of limitation rather than 'seroious bug' too
[01:31] <IdleOne> !ohmy | cable_guy
[01:31] <ubotu> cable_guy: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[01:31] <cable_guy> sorry, my bad
[01:31] <IdleOne> no problem
[01:31] <IdleOne> Sheilds UP! the borg_ are here
[01:32] <niller> Anyone here who knows when a video card is perfectly installed ?
[01:32] <CoRnJuLiOx> niller: when it works
[01:32] <IdleOne> when it works
[01:32] <IdleOne> yup
[01:33] <enyc> cable_guy: intel moving to 'open graphics drivers' iirc.. at least fornnew chipsets.
[01:33] <niller> :) Well just invested in nvidia geforce 6600 GT with a water cooling system. The manual says something about a plug
[01:33] <niller> Dont know if it's working though
[01:33] <Huffalump> niller, you might try #hardware
[01:34] <niller> Anyone there using Feisty 7.04 ?
[01:34] <Pici> niller: The harware channel would be better place to ask, but the newer video cards usually have a power molex plug on the end because they require extra power to work properly
[01:34] <seshomaru1234> how do i save a file openned with vi?
[01:34] <Huffalump> niller, could be.  but the OS doesn't matter much to just know if the card is working or how to handle the plug
[01:34] <niller> Pici: Hmm cant find the plug
[01:35] <jrib> seshomaru1234: :w    you should run 'vimtutor' for a good intro
[01:35] <Huffalump> seshomaru1234, to save a file opened in vi, you need to now open emacs...
[01:35] <jrib> Huffalump: evil
[01:35] <Pici> Huffalump: hah
[01:35] <Huffalump> =] ] 
[01:35] <niller> Huffalump: Okay I'll try there
[01:36] <seshomaru1234> Huffalump - emacs installed by default on ubuntu?
[01:36] <jrib> Huffalump: it's not
[01:36] <jrib> that was meant for seshomaru1234 :)
[01:36] <zane411> quick question for ya fellahs, can you upgrade from 6.06 lts to edgy eft without updating the kernel?
[01:37] <seshomaru1234> jrib -thanks
[01:37] <Huffalump> seshomaru1234, I recommend jrid's method.  In terminal, type vimtutor and it will teach you.
[01:37] <zane411> my systems got some issues with the kernel that the edgy eft livecd runs
[01:37] <zane411> but 6.06 works
[01:38] <tbuss> need help with wireless connection. after system update wireless connection has been disabled
[01:39] <tbuss> is there an update that causes wireless configuration to become disabled?
[01:40] <sebrock> any already-built-in function to minimize terminal to tray? not using alltray that is
[01:40] <Godsey> how do you specify in interfaces that a dhcp interface should not be default route and not update resolv.conf?
[01:41] <Pici> tbuss: How did you intially setup your wireless card?
[01:41] <tbuss> Pici installed linux-restricted-modules
[01:41] <tbuss> Pici after that everything worked fine
[01:42] <Pici> tbuss: Did your update include a new kernel?
[01:43] <tbuss> Pici i unchecked all the header-generic updates but im ubsure what else was loaded, there were about 50 updates
[01:43] <Lucciano> hello there, i just install xubuntu, but i can't compile anything with c, i create a basic hellowolrd example but it fails becouse it could find the stdio.h anyone any idea what is missing?
[01:43] <Toma-> Lucciano: "sudo apt-get install build-essential" should fix that
[01:43] <IdleOne> Lucciano, what Toma- said
[01:44] <Pici> tbuss: Why did you uncheck the header updates?
[01:44] <Lucciano> Thanks Toma, IdleOne, ill try
[01:44] <sebrock> any already-built-in function to minimize terminal to tray? not using alltray that is??
[01:45] <tbuss> Pici not sure, i dont know what im doing, a previous setup failed after I did the update and I thought it was the headers because that's what i was having problems with during ndiswrapper setup
[01:45] <tbuss> Pici i didnt use ndiswrapper this time, did not need to
[01:46] <tbuss> Pici is there a way to reverse the update process from last night?
[01:46] <xeternal> helloi
[01:46] <Pici> tbuss: I would reboot the computer and select the older kernel from the grub menu, then go through and apply all the updates, then reboot again and select the new kernel.  Hopefully that should resolve your issue.
[01:48] <xeternal> any one install acrobat reader 7.0 in x64 Ubuntu and run it sucessfully
[01:48] <tbuss> Pici is it okay to have two kernels
[01:48] <Pici> tbuss: Yes.
[01:49] <tbuss> Pici okay ill give it a shot, okay to check back with results?
[01:49] <Pici> tbuss: Sure
[01:49] <sebrock> should one update gnome or not?
[01:50] <crazy_bus> how well does window vista dual boot with ubuntu?
[01:50] <Frogzoo> sebrock: from the repos?
[01:50] <sebrock> Frogzoo,I mean 2.18 is out. Or should one simply wait for next ubuntu release
[01:51] <sebrock> is it easy to update?
[01:51] <Frogzoo> sebrock: best wait
[01:51] <sebrock> guess so
[01:52] <IdleOne> tbuss, I have 7 kernels at the momment heh
[01:52] <Slick> hey guys, I've just installed VMware through automatix, there's VMplayer here which asks me to open up an image, but does anyone know how you create an image?
[01:53] <Pici> 1) Automatic is not supported here
[01:53] <Pici> 2) You cant create images with vmware player
[01:54] <Slick> what do you need to create the image?
[01:54] <UB`> Slick I think you have installed the VMWare PLAYER
[01:54] <tbuss> Pici okay rebooted and selected original kernel, updates are loading kernel headers and kernel headers generic -10 and -11
[01:54] <UB`> you need the VMWare Workstation or Server
[01:54] <UB`> to create an image
[01:54] <Slick> cheers UB'
[01:55] <tbuss> Pici after reboot will i need to go into grub and select the new kernel or will it load by default?
[01:55] <Pici> tbuss: It will load by default
[01:55] <Slick> is the workstation the one I would use if I just want to install win2k on my linux setup
[01:55] <Heroin> how can i add a user without a shell, and with a homedir of /home/harm/site08 ?
[01:55] <Heroin> so just for FTPing
[01:56] <tbuss> Pici what happened during the update, and why do i have two kernels now
[01:56] <UB`> Slick it is that you need if you want create an image of that OS, yes
[01:56] <tom__> hi all
[01:56] <Pici> tbuss: Whenever you update the kernel, it doesnt get rid of the old one, it just gets a new one.
[01:56] <UB`> Heroin man adduser
[01:56] <Heroin> UB' ok.. :X
[01:56] <Slick> thanks UB`
[01:56] <tacamr2> Hello, how can i use .htacces files under ubuntu?
[01:56] <tacamr2> in apache2
[01:56] <UB`> welcome Slick
[01:57] <UB`> tacamr2 just pu it in a web directory
[01:57] <tbuss> Pici if i had selected the headers during the update then everything would have worked correct?
[01:57] <UB`> put*
[01:57] <tacamr2> how to configure /etc/apache2/apache2.conf?
[01:57] <UB`> tacamr2 I think apache2 is already setup to to handle .htaccess
[01:58] <tacamr2> i have made a .htacces file, looks to be good...
[01:58] <tacamr2> but the apache2 don't accept it...
[01:58] <Heroin> DB' it doesnt explain howto not add a shell
[01:58] <Heroin> i dont wanne give that account shell
[01:58] <Pici> tbuss: Possibly
[01:58] <tom__> I wonder if someone could help me, I want to change the default terminal emulator (the oen that gets run when you type x-terminal-emulator)
[01:58] <mafagafo> newbie need help... anyone (cant get my windows partition to be displayed under "computer" so I can access files saved on that filesystem)
[01:59] <tom__> I did it before but I can't remember how now...
[01:59] <UB`> tacamr2 try add something like "AllowOverride ALL" in a <directory> directive
[01:59] <kraypius> is there a way to extend the device manager to allow disabling and enabling devices?
[02:00] <Frogzoo> tom__: just bind it to a hotkey in configuration editor -> metacity - much easier by far
[02:00] <UB`> Heroin --shell /bin/false
[02:00] <tacamr2> i have AllowOverride All
[02:00] <tacamr2> It mus be "ALL"?
[02:00] <tbuss> Pici didnt work after reboot no connection.
[02:00] <UB`> tacamr2 try
[02:00] <UB`> then try and if doesnt work read the error log
[02:01] <tacamr2> trying
[02:01] <fruitbag`> Hey...
[02:01] <tacamr2> nothing....
[02:01] <fruitbag`> Does anyone here know any good Doom Linux ports?
[02:01] <tom__> Thanks Frogzoo but I've got all sorts of things which depend on it being set up properly plus I'm not using metacity. I know it's possible to do (there's a command to do it) but I don't remember how
[02:01] <Menasim1> I can't install packeges
[02:01] <tbuss> Pici in settings-->admin-->networking I have only wired and modem connection. is it okay to just boot into the kernel with the working wireless connection
[02:01] <Pici> tbuss: Are you sure that the only thing that you did was install the restricted modules to get your wireless to work?  If you did any sort of compiling you will need to redo those steps with the new kernel headers
[02:01] <IdleOne> Menasim1, what packages?
[02:02] <Menasim1> apt-get
[02:02] <Pici> tbuss: Yes, you can boot into the old kernel if you want to do that.
[02:02] <Menasim1> I think there is mising files
[02:02] <mo^> how can i copy text from vim to "outside"? in nano i just have to mark the text. i can paste it with the middle mouse button then. but in vim, that doesn't work..
[02:02] <IdleOne> Menasim1, yes you are using apt-get to install what package?
[02:02] <Menasim1> inkscape
[02:03] <IdleOne> Menasim1, have you enabled universe and multiverse?
[02:03] <tbuss> Pici yes that was all i did
[02:03] <fruitbag`> Any suggestions here?
[02:03] <fruitbag`> Modern Linux Doom ports...
[02:03] <fruitbag`> Can't I just use the old Doom ports?

[02:06] <fruitbag`> UB`, thanks.
[02:06] <UB`> welcome
[02:06] <fruitbag`> UB`, that's Doom 3.
[02:06] <fruitbag`> I wanted classic Doom
[02:06] <UB`> oh
[02:07] <UB`> sorry dont know try search it in google
[02:07] <okami> Are there any macbook (13" core2duo) owners in here?

[02:07] <Eldanen> Has anyone gotten the coretemp.ko module to work and report Core 2 Duo temp information with lm-sensors?
[02:07] <ohana> fruitbag... this is what you want http://www.doomsdayhq.com/
[02:07] <UB`> tacamr2 .htaccess with double "s"
[02:07] <ohana> best doom engine you'll ever want
[02:08] <fruitbag`> ohana, thanks.
[02:08] <ohana> runs beautifully on linux
[02:08] <ohana> np
[02:08] <fruitbag`> ohana, but I hope it isn't too resource intensive.
[02:08] <ohana> enjoy! :)
[02:08] <fruitbag`> I use a laptop ;p
[02:08] <ohana> hmm... shouldnt be fine. as long as you dont push it (shading/lighting/shadow effects/models/etc)
[02:08] <ohana> should*
[02:09] <okami> Are there any macbook (13" core2duo) owners in here?
[02:09] <Heroin> UB' i added -shell /bin/false however in /etc/shells i dont have that listed...
[02:09] <tacamr2> maybe not implemented...
[02:09] <sebrock> does anyone know why my sound never works when resuming after suspend mode?
[02:09] <ohana> you can always make it run oldschool 320x200 res :p
[02:09] <Godsey> I can't figure out how to have dhcpclient not take the default route
[02:09] <UB`> Heroin it's right /bin/false isnt a shell
[02:09] <UB`> and you dont want a shell for that user
[02:09] <Heroin> ah ok :)
[02:10] <fruitbag`> Heh...
[02:10] <fruitbag`> ohana, but that has been heavily modified.
[02:10] <fruitbag`> I want good 'ol classic Doom ;p
[02:10] <tacamr2> .htaccess
[02:11] <tacamr2> Itt works :)
[02:11] <tacamr2> It works:)
[02:11] <Heroin> UB' however i cant seem to be able to login via FTP w. the new user.. is it because it has no shell?
[02:11] <ohana> fruitbag, true, its a doom port. it still uses the same doom data files, but since doom source was released they've simply added a few things
[02:11] <tacamr2> It was a silly mistake...
[02:11] <tacamr2> Thanks!!!
[02:11] <ohana> dont worry, you can use this engine to make it run just like the originals
[02:11] <UB`> tacamr2 shit happens :)
[02:11] <ohana> but i have to say, its the best ever port
[02:12] <UB`> Heroin what kind of ftp daemon you use?
[02:12] <ohana> whether for using uber lighting/shadow effects, or old school, it just goes
[02:12] <fruitbag`> ohana, yes, but I want plain old doom.
[02:12] <fruitbag`> ;p
[02:12] <UB`> have you setup it?
[02:12] <Heroin> UB' VSFTPD and it should just autoupdate for new users and stuff
[02:13] <ohana> it is plain old doom. you just have other options. i really dont know of any other ports that just "port" the game. since source was released, every port out there has modified the engine in some way or another
[02:14] <UB`> Heroin did you read the vsftpd.conf?
[02:14] <UB`> you have to uncomment some option I think
[02:14] <UB`> like "local_enable=YES"
[02:14] <UB`> but please read the doc/faq before
[02:14] <Heroin> UB' here > http://pastebin.ca/397318
[02:15] <Heroin> UB' i have that set
[02:15] <UB`> apache?
[02:15] <Heroin> local_enable=YES
[02:15] <Heroin> scroll down
[02:15] <Heroin> its all my main configs :)
[02:15] <UB`> I think you are done
[02:15] <fruitbag`> ohana, that stinks ;\
[02:15] <ohana> fruitbag, the screenshots show you what doom looks like with all the effects turned on. like i said, you can run doom just like the originals with its low res, lack of 3d models and lighting/shadows. thats about as much help as i can think of. hope it helps
[02:15] <UB`> search for error log
[02:15] <fruitbag`> ohana, can't I just run the old ports?
[02:16] <Heroin> UB' i think Vsftpd requires a restricted shell..
[02:16] <UB`> try to restart vsftpd daemon
[02:16] <Heroin> i did
[02:16] <joshjosh> hmm...doom huh?
[02:16] <UB`> HerculeP  may be I dont remember
[02:16] <joshjosh> i can run it on my ipod, but haven't tried in ubuntu
[02:16] <Heroin> UB' any suggestions on howto create a restricted shell
[02:16] <ohana> fruitbag` to be honest, i dont know of any other ports that just "port" the game.
[02:16] <UB`> but the Faq and google is your friend :)
[02:16] <fruitbag`> ohana, very well.
[02:16] <fruitbag`> ohana, I am aware of such ports, but they are too old.
[02:16] <joshjosh> if you can run dosbox in wine...then maybe you can run doom that way
[02:16] <fruitbag`> I'm not sure if they would work or not.
[02:17] <fruitbag`> joshjosh, that pretty much defeats the purpose of running Doom on Linux ;\
[02:17] <joshjosh> fruitbag`, eh, whatever works.
[02:17] <ohana> fruitbag`, thats why i recommend this one. its constantly being updated and supported
[02:17] <fruitbag`> joshjosh, if I wanted to do that, then I'd just switch to Windows or MS-DOS.
[02:18] <CoRnJuLiOx> how would one burn an ISO to a CD?
[02:18] <CoRnJuLiOx> on linux, that is
[02:18] <ohana> fruitbag`, and you can run doom just like the original, low res and all
[02:18] <fruitbag`> Very well.
[02:18] <ohana> its identical
[02:18] <joshjosh> fruitbag`, if you switch to straight DOS to play Doom, I salute you. That's hardcore haha
[02:18] <ohana> fruitbag`, i only recommend doomsday because imho, its the best there is

[02:35] <bahr> trond: there is unrar ?
[02:35] <Daverocks> Comrade_Sergei: yeah, Settings -> Repositories
[02:35] <Comrade_Sergei> yep
[02:35] <Daverocks> click the binary and source things
[02:35] <Comrade_Sergei> yep
[02:36] <Daverocks> Comrade_Sergei: yeah, click edit
[02:36] <bulmer> morpheus74: my suggestion is buy a wifi card supported in linux
[02:36] <Daverocks> the checkboxes should be there
[02:36] <dlehman> anyone?
[02:36] <morpheus74> Does 'ping' stop by itself?
[02:36] <soundray> morpheus74: only if you start it with the -c option
[02:36] <Daverocks> morpheus74: no, you use ctrl-C to stop it
[02:36] <bulmer> morpheus74: how did it get started?  :)
[02:36] <angor> dude
[02:36] <Comrade_Sergei> Daverocks check everytining?
[02:36] <Daverocks> morpheus74: you can specify a certain number of pings on the command line, but by default it keeps pinging
[02:36] <angor> could someone tell me wether gnome 2.18 is out there in any "edgy" repo or not?
[02:37] <morpheus74> bulmer, I went to the ci and typed 'ping www.google.com'
[02:37] <Daverocks> Comrade_Sergei: um
[02:37] <Daverocks> Comrade_Sergei: yeah
[02:37] <bulmer> morpheus74: you do need to hit ctrl+C so itll stop
[02:37] <mmarc> hey there, i got a problem with my rt73 wlan stick, ndiswrapper driver install was successfull, iwlist scan shows up my accesspoint, but i cant set any essid :/ even with opensource drivers from serialmonkey
[02:38] <Daverocks> mmarc: you need to unset everything else before it'll let you set a ssid
[02:38] <bulmer> anyway to check or inter-act with a remote LPD ? to see its queues, manage it and kill jobs?
[02:38] <Daverocks> mmarc: like iwconfig ethX key off
[02:39] <morpheus74> Here is the results of my ping: 5 packets transmitted, 3 received, 40% packet loss, time 8381ms.
[02:39] <mmarc> hmm ah, ill give it a try
[02:39] <dlehman> i need some help with Beryl, i followed the HowTo wiki for XGL and ATI and when i execute the beryl-manager it says, "Failed to execut child process "beryl-manager" (No such file or directory)
[02:39] <soundray> angor: probably not.  Edgy is pretty much designed around 2.16
[02:39] <bulmer> morpheus74: so your have 40% loss
[02:40] <dimebar> dlehman: if you look in synaptic is beryl-manager actually installed?
[02:40] <Godsey> morpheus74: you have the worlds worst dialup connection
[02:40] <Comrade_Sergei> whats the command to update dapper to edgy?
[02:41] <dhq> Daverocks:  error: conio.h: No such file or directory
[02:41] <joshjosh> Comrade_Sergei, sudo apt-get install dist-upgrade i do believe
[02:41] <morpheus74> bulmer, So does that tell me anything?  Could it be my settings?  Or is it possible the dsl modem, or could it be my wifi card (which works fine at home - I'm only now experiencing issues at my current location)
[02:41] <bulmer> what tools one may use to detect broadcast storms on a subnet? not sure what type of packets is causing it, ipx/spx, netbios,arp, dont know..
[02:41] <Daverocks> dhq: yeah, it isn't a standard library, it's not included in gcc
[02:41] <Answer> Hi.  I've got a laptop hooked up to an external monitor, but I am having trouble exporting the display resolution.  When I hit Function+F8 it doesn't switch displays, it stays in the laptop mode.  Under System->Preferences->Screen Resolution there are no other options
[02:42] <dhq> Daverocks: so where do i get the librarie
[02:42] <dlehman> dimebar, synaptic shows - beryl-plugins-data, Installed Version - 0.2.0~0beryl1. Latest Version - 0.2.0~0beryl1, Description - Plugins Data - -Beryl Project
[02:42] <cosmodad> how do I add the commercial repository? Cannot find the URL...
[02:42] <Daverocks> Answer: it usually doesn't "just work" with X. try switching to a tty, and press function F8
[02:42] <bulmer> morpheus74: am like looking at a crystal ball here, you have an interesting life ahead of you...(you need to tell me what you have and how it is connected okay?)
[02:43] <soundray> !multiverse > cosmodad, please read the private message from ubotu
[02:43] <Daverocks> Answer: like, ctrl-alt-F1
[02:43] <Daverocks> Answer: (ctrl-alt-F7 will switch back to X)
[02:43] <soundray> Daverocks: you haven't read the question carefully
[02:44] <soundray> Answer: what graphics chipset do you have?
[02:44] <Godsey> bulmer: I think he's pinging something just past our moon :P
[02:44] <mmarc> Daverocks: doenst work... i set everthing off, tried iwconfig wlan0 essid lala and its still OFF/any
[02:44] <Answer> Daverocks: it exports the display to the external monitor, but it stays on the laptop monitor and in laptop resolution.  It does the same in tty (ctrl+alt+f1)
[02:44] <cosmodad> soundray: thx
[02:44] <Daverocks> soundray: no really, i had the same laptop problem. it wouldn't show on the external display with X running, but it would work under a tty
[02:44] <CroX> I need some help setting up a connection to a WPA network. Anyone care to help me out?
[02:44] <mmarc> no log output, nothig... i dont get it
[02:44] <morpheus74> bulmer, I just ran ping again; this time it only dropped 20%.  I'm running Ubuntuy 6.10 on HP Pavilion lap top with a Linksys wifi card.
[02:44] <bulmer> lolz
[02:45] <dhq> Daverocks: how do i get the libraries
[02:45] <Daverocks> mmarc: situations like this are tough
[02:45] <Answer> soundray, Daverocks: my video card is a ATI Radeon R250 lf FireGL 9000
[02:45] <bulmer> morpheus74: is your laptop only connected to internet via the wifi or another via a ethernet too?
[02:45] <Daverocks> mmarc: i assume it has no encryption and stuff
[02:45] <soundray> Daverocks: well, that's expected behaviour, isn't it?
[02:45] <Daverocks> dhq: download conio.h from somewhere? :P
[02:45] <soundray> Answer, ubotu has something...
[02:45] <morpheus74> bulmer, only via wifi
[02:46] <soundray> ubotu, tell Answer about dualhead
[02:46] <Daverocks> soundray: i guess... now :P
[02:46] <mmarc> it works fine on my debian box... no encryption, nothig... i turned everthing off for testing
[02:46] <dimebar> dlehman: im not on a ubuntu machine right now so I can't check but I'm sure theres a package called 'beryl-manager' that you need to install
[02:46] <dhq> Daverocks: and where to place it
[02:46] <bulmer> morpheus74: who ows the AP your wifi card connects to? and how is it connected to the internet?
[02:46] <Daverocks> dhq: /usr/include
[02:46] <mmarc> i just cant set any essid, no matter what i try
[02:46] <morpheus74> bulmer, Sorry, I'm a bit of a newbie.  What is AP?
[02:46] <joincamp> can anyone help me with ssh configuration issues?
[02:46] <Daverocks> morpheus74: access point
[02:47] <morpheus74> Ah
[02:47] <Answer> CroX: there is a pretty good WPA howto https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo
[02:47] <morpheus74> Daverocks, Thanks.
[02:47] <Daverocks> mmarc: ummm
[02:47] <Daverocks> mmarc: i assume your debian box had a different wlan card?
[02:47] <soundray> ubotu, tell joincamp about anyone
[02:47] <bulmer> morpheus74: who ows the AP your wifi card connects to? and how is it connected to the internet?
[02:47] <morpheus74> bulmer, The ap is owned my my parents (I'm visiting at their home).  Their AP is connected via DSL
[02:47] <bulmer> owns*
[02:47] <mmarc> yeah, but i also tried the usb stick 15 minutes ago ;)
[02:48] <CroX> Answer: Tried it but it still wont work for me
[02:48] <morpheus74> bulmer, They have a wireless modem.
[02:48] <dlehman> dimebar: ok, ill try and do some more resarrch
[02:48] <bulmer> morpheus74: okay, so maybe the sun spots or moon spots is affecting your signals, so some of your packets are dropping, would that be too much of a concern?
[02:49] <morpheus74> bulmer, Sun spots?  I assume that is a joke, right?
[02:49] <bulmer> morpheus74: i say that because if you only do chatting  on irc, it does not make that much of a difference
[02:49] <Comrade_Sergei> i did the enable repos but its not finding the upgrade to edgy?
[02:49] <Answer> CroX:  go to the bottom of the page where it talks about /etc/init.d/wpa_launch.sh.  make yourself a little shell script with those options and check the debug output
[02:50] <bulmer> morpheus74: sort of a joke, but really sunspots causes problems with microwaves, satellite comms, etc..
[02:50] <soundray> ubotu, tell Comrade_Sergei about upgrade
[02:50] <joincamp> from what i can figure out, there has got to be some reason the sshd is refusing outside connections.  it works on the lan.  I am fairly sure the port is forwarded and set correctly.  canyouseeme.org saids connection refused.  i just need some help with this
[02:50] <joincamp> is there a sshd_config thing i am missing?
[02:50] <Toma-> joincamp: sounds like SSH isnt binded to the right IP.
[02:50] <Answer> joincamp: yeah port 22 is most likely b locked
[02:51] <joincamp> i set it to several different ports though
[02:51] <joincamp> 6666, 8888, 37890
[02:51] <Toma-> joincamp: you need to change the server ip
[02:51] <bulmer> joincamp: do you have a firewall in front of this sshd? or the server acting as sshd has a firewall?
[02:51] <arrow> I'm going to buy a DVD burner, does anyone have any recomendations
[02:51] <Comrade_Sergei> soundray its (!upgrade | Comrade-Sergei
[02:51] <Comrade_Sergei> !upgrade | Comrade-Sergei
[02:51] <ubotu> Comrade-Sergei: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[02:51] <joincamp> no firewall
[02:51] <soundray> Comrade_Sergei: no, you need to read your private messages.
[02:51] <Comrade_Sergei> yea
[02:52] <morpheus74> bulmer, The real issue is I'm trying to convert my parents from XP to Ubuntu, and their 2nd computer (the one I"m installing Ubuntu on) only has a wifi card.  The connection seems to be spotty running Ubuntu, but works better(not perfect) on XP.  I want them to have an enjoyable experience with Ubuntu so they'll appreciate it.
[02:52] <joincamp> Toma-: can you tell me a bit more about what that means
[02:52] <scv> arrow: who buys a dvd-bruner now? hd-dvd/bd is the future!!!
[02:52] <Toma-> joincamp: you need to change the ip in ssh.conf to your router
[02:52] <joincamp> thank you
[02:52] <Toma-> no probz
[02:52] <bstock> ok, ntp-server should be easier then this... does anyone know where the config file is for ntp-server?
[02:53] <joincamp> Toma-: ssh.conf or sshd_config?
[02:53] <arrow> scv: I don't even have a cd drive right now, and I don't have 700 bucks to drop on "The Future"
[02:53] <bulmer> morpheus74: if you are giving someone an impression, get it connected via hardwire ie  ethernet, you liably can cause fear to the untrained..better to demo a rock solid connection eh?
[02:53] <eilker> reconfiguring Xserver, what is the difference between Im/PS2 and Explorer/PS2 ?
[02:53] <scv> arrow: oh, poor guy
[02:53] <Toma-> joincamp: sshd_config
[02:53] <arrow> scv: ;(
[02:53] <dhq> Daverocks: program1.cpp:4: error: ::main must return int
[02:54] <morpheus74> bulmer, One thing I should add: they have an older 4 level home with the DSL modem in the basement, and the computer with the wifi card in the upper level.  I'm trying to discern if the issue is the hardware, or possible the software.
[02:54] <bulmer> morpheus74: thats speaking from experience of me, trying to impress some folks, and I in turned embarrassed myself using stuff not reliable
[02:54] <Toma-> joincamp: its the ListenAddress <IP> option
[02:54] <arrow> lol, I wish
[02:54] <gesus> `divx
[02:54] <User2323> hello, can anyone help me figure out how to watch a stream?
[02:54] <Daverocks> dhq: umm... i assume _your_ main function is  int main () ? maybe it's one of the main functions in the library
[02:54] <morpheus74> bulmer, Good point!
[02:54] <arrow> I was hoping to see a computer on the side of the road and salvage the burner
[02:54] <Huffalump> User2323, are you near a lake?
[02:54] <Daverocks> User2323: mplayer?
[02:55] <soundray> morpheus74: have you considered that the WLAN signal may be too weak?
[02:55] <joincamp> Toma-: thanks
[02:55] <Toma-> np
[02:55] <scv> arrow: do you want it to eat livecds?
[02:55] <soundray> Huffalump: always the comedian, eh?
[02:55] <User2323> I tried both mplayer and vlc but I get errors trying to watch this stream: rtsp://58.188.102.1/eektpub_c0014
[02:55] <Huffalump> soundray, aye aye capn'n
[02:55] <morpheus74> soundray, I have.  Do you know how I can check the signal strength under ubuntu 6.10?
[02:55] <dhq> Daverocks: its so irritation
[02:55] <arrow> scv: I'd rather put them into a cd drive that's hooked into my computer
[02:55] <Answer> morpheus74: iwconfig
[02:55] <soundray> morpheus74: iwlist wlan0 scan
[02:55] <bulmer> arrow: be quick before someone beats you to it..lolz
[02:56] <morpheus74> Ah... I was trying ifconfig!
[02:56] <soundray> morpheus74: substitute the real interface name
[02:56] <Sharcho> Is there some way to do global font substitution, e.g. everytime "Courier New" appears, use "Consolas" instead?
[02:56] <scv> arrow: the dvd-bruner is not so useful for me, I have cardreaders and big hdds already
[02:56] <soundray> Sharcho: which application?
[02:56] <joshjosh> Anyone know the terminal command for detecting USB devices? They will detect when plugged in while booting up, but not afterwards.
[02:56] <thorre> i need to run ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS on a server with a " Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5708 Gigabit Ethernet" NIC
[02:56] <Sharcho> soundray: for all of them
[02:57] <Stylee-FilipBole> hello... I have dual boot (ubuntu and win xp), is a way to eliminate the win partition without reinstal ubuntu?
[02:57] <thorre> that nic is supported in the latest beta of ubuntu
[02:57] <Huffalump> User2323, it looks like the server is down.
[02:57] <thorre> but not in 6.06.1
[02:57] <soundray> Sharcho: you mean at the X server level?
[02:57] <jrib> User2323: are you sure it is not a server-side problem?
[02:57] <Sharcho> soundray: yes
[02:57] <thorre> is there any way to get a  Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme II BCM5708 Gigabit Ethernet NIC to work in 6.06.1?
[02:58] <soundray> Sharcho: you could replace the Courier font files with softlinks to Consolas. I'm not sure if that would have any side effects, though
[02:58] <User2323> I wasn't really sure, but if both of you can't access it then I guess you're right, the server must be down
[02:58] <User2323> thanks for your help
[02:58] <scv> thorre: is a gigabit nic good for the network backup?
[02:59] <morpheus74> Thanks for the help.  I ran the scan on the signal strength: Signal level:-48 dBm  Noise level:-256 dBm.  I'm not sure what these #'s mean.
[02:59] <nugenoa> If I don't have internet access on my ubuntu box, how do I install xorg-driver-fglrx ?
[02:59] <nugenoa> xorg-driver-fglrx_6.8.0-8.8.25-0ubuntu11.1_amd64.deb
[02:59] <Huffalump> nugenoa, download the deb package and sneakernet it
[02:59] <dyrne> nugenoa: packages.ubuntu.com from any computer
[03:00] <Stylee-FilipBole> can I eliminate the win partition, without reinstaling ubuntu?
[03:00] <nugenoa> Huffalump, dyrne, Thanks!
[03:00] <mmarc> hmm i dont get it... no way to set this damn essid... iwlist shows up my networks, but no way to set it, no error msgs, nothing :/ allways off/any
[03:00] <Huffalump> Stylee-FilipBole, have you tried gparted?  It should be able to reclaim the partition without a reinstall
[03:01] <jmazaredo> how many ubuntu variants are there? ubuntu.edubuntu,kubuntu,ubuntu-ce, is there something i miss?
[03:01] <Stylee-FilipBole> Huffalump: thanke you... I will check out
[03:01] <Sharcho> soundray: that wouldn't work. TTF fonts have the font name embedded in the file.
[03:02] <viviersf> jmazaredo, impilinux
[03:02] <Bauldrick> I get a black screen and audio when trying to play dvd in any media player and ive installed codecs etc?
[03:02] <morpheus74> Sorry, I had to step away for a moment.  Was someone able to determine what there readings mean: Signal level:-48 dBm  Noise level:-256 dBm  (Excellent, Fair, poor)?
[03:02] <soundray> Sharcho: I see. I don't know the answer then, I thought you were trying to substitute font formats within a document.
[03:03] <joenavelh> hello
[03:03] <joenavelh> hello am new
[03:04] <bstock> anyone know how to make ntp-server listen on external interaces, i can't find a ntpd.conf file
[03:04] <narinux> exist frontend for connection pppoe
[03:04] <ralph_> i need to update to edgy but i get errors when i do about how it cant fech something...
[03:04] <soundray> morpheus74: try 'iwlist wlan0 ap', it gives you a quality rating
[03:04] <bulmer> morpheus74: actually that depends on how sensitive your receivers are.. :)
[03:05] <joenavelh> hello
[03:05] <IdleOne> hello joenavelh
[03:05] <Gast198> Hallo
[03:05] <joenavelh> yeah
[03:05] <Gast198> Ich htte eine frage zu unbuntu !
[03:05] <joenavelh> how are you
[03:05] <Gast198> Hey
[03:05] <CroX> Answer: The WPA still wont work. :(
[03:05] <soundray> Gast198: frag in #ubuntu-de bitte
[03:05] <CroX> Answer: And the reference you gave me was for 6.06, I'm on 6.10
[03:05] <Gast198> fine .. ok english then
[03:05] <Bauldrick> HI - can anyone suggest a fix for my black screen dvd prob?
[03:05] <bulmer> morpheus74: but with -48dBm and -256dBm noise floor, heck thats like over flooding any recivers..200 dBm difference...way too much me thinks..but then again sensors gives false readings
[03:06] <joenavelh> hi idleone
[03:06] <joenavelh> how are u
[03:06] <joenavelh> am new
[03:06] <IdleOne> joenavelh, fine thank you. please keep chatter to support question/answers for ubuntu if you would like to just chat in general go to #ubuntu-offtopic type /join #ubuntu-offtopic to go there
[03:06] <soundray> Gast198: in #ubuntu-de kannst du auf deutsch fragen
[03:06] <ralph_> u need to upgrade to edgy but i think my repos may be wrong how do i fix them?
[03:07] <IdleOne> !upgrade | ralph_
[03:07] <ubotu> ralph_: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[03:07] <morpheus74> Here is what I got when I did iwlist wlan0 ap: wlan0     Interface doesn't have a list of Peers/Access-Points
[03:07] <joenavelh> ko
[03:07] <joenavelh> ok
[03:07] <ralph_> IdleOne yes but i think i have something wrong in my repositorys
[03:07] <Huffalump> Bauldrick, it sounds like you don't have the right codecs installed.
[03:07] <Gast198> I have a problem with MAC ID on unbunt : Cisco router normaly repots MACS following 0100.11d8.xxxx.b8 BUT Unbunt machine MAC ID is reported : 0011.xxxx.9eb8 , so there is 00 missing in the beginning .. abybody has a clue why ?
[03:07] <nightwatch> hi there, I cannot find what repository has the package smbldap-tools and libnss-ldap for dapper, I tried google but all I can find is that is in universe, I tried to enable archives and security repos with universe and multiverse but the package cannot be found.
[03:07] <Bauldrick> i got libdvdcss and w32codecs
[03:07] <soundray> morpheus74: since by the sounds of it, you're almost vertically above the AP, I'd try fiddling with the antennas.
[03:08] <Huffalump> Bauldrick, I realize you said you did install them, but it must be the case that something is missing.
[03:08] <IdleOne> ralph_, the Upgrade manager will adjust the repos so it can get the packages it needs to upgrade. follow the link and do as it sayd
[03:08] <Huffalump> Bauldrick, did you use Automatix or manually?
[03:08] <dimeotane> is there such a thing as an adaptor to convert laptop hard drives to connect to regular IDE cables?
[03:08] <Pici> nightwatch: What version are you running?
[03:08] <nandasunu> I've got ubuntu on an old computer and it won't connect to the internet. is there anything I need to do to configure the ethernet port?
[03:08] <Bauldrick> i did it manually first - it worked until i rebooted
[03:08] <Bauldrick> then tried automatix2
[03:08] <morpheus74> soundray, So in your opinion, the issue is not software related (i.e. configuration settings within Ubuntu)?
[03:08] <nightwatch> [Pici] : dapper drake 6.04.1
[03:08] <soylent> dimeotane~> yes
[03:08] <nugenoa> dimeotane, yes.
[03:08] <dimeotane> yay!
[03:09] <dimeotane> thx
[03:09] <Huffalump> Bauldrick, check out the list on this page.  You'll need these - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[03:09] <Gast198> Help to the previous mentioned problem would be very appreciated ! :)
[03:09] <soundray> morpheus74: well, the driver you're using does seem to be less optimized if the XP one works better. But since reorientating your antennas is so easy, that's the first thing I would try.
[03:09] <Bauldrick> yep - thats what i followed the first time
[03:09] <Heroin> would it matter if changed the ssh port from 22 to 68? or some other port?
[03:09] <Pici> nightwatch: packages.ubuntu.com says both packages are in Universe.
[03:10] <Huffalump> Bauldrick - care to give it another go?  Automatix may have changed something.
[03:10] <rancor> heroin thats probably not going to work
[03:10] <Pici> !automatix
[03:10] <ubotu> automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[03:10] <bipolar> Heroin: not really. you would just have to specify the connection port every time you ssh'ed to that box
[03:10] <rancor> if your port 22 was blocked and you had a remote machiene
[03:10] <rancor> you could tunnel port 68 to 22
[03:10] <Bauldrick> will do - but if i open the file (videots) i see the vob's have pictures?
[03:10] <morpheus74> soundray, Thanks!
[03:10] <Huffalump> Bauldrick - that sounds about right.
[03:11] <Heroin> rancor well i wanne chance the port so i dont get scanned and bruteforced twice a day
[03:11] <Gast198> :-) ?
[03:11] <semion> hello
[03:11] <Bauldrick> So - i would need to uninstall all codecs and then reinstall? do i purge them?
[03:11] <nugenoa> Huffalump, What does this snakernet exactly mean?
[03:11] <rancor> you're getting scanned and bruteforced from an SSH connection?
[03:11] <Huffalump> nugenoa - it means to put the file on a disk/CD and walk it over (in your sneakers)
[03:11] <rancor> users within the ssh connection?
[03:11] <soundray> Heroin: change it to something > 1024
[03:12] <nightwatch> [Pici] : I read it, then I wrote this in my sources.list: deb http://br.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper-updates main restricted universe and deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper-security main restricted universe; what`s am I doing wrong? ( I apt-get update, by the way)
[03:12] <bipolar> Heroin: might be more fun to use iptables to automaticly block ssh when too many connection attempts happen
[03:12] <master03> xit
[03:12] <nugenoa> Huffalump, Ok.
[03:13] <derelm> i wonder if it is possible to "upgrade"/"crossgrade" from debian sarge to the current ubuntu?
[03:13] <scv> bipolar: and it's a good way to ddos you by this?
[03:13] <bipolar> scv: not if you have ssh listing on both 22 and your other spare port.
[03:13] <Pici> derelm: People have done it, but its probably risky
[03:14] <ralph_> IdleOne i get this error Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy-security/main/binary-amd64/Packages.bz2 Sub-process bzip2 returned an error code (2)
[03:14] <ralph_> Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy-security/main/binary-amd64/Packages.bz2 Sub-process bzip2 returned an error code (2)
[03:14] <bipolar> scv: besides, it would only block the ip of the one trying to connect to many times
[03:14] <soundray> bipolar: is that what -m connlimit is for?
[03:14] <bipolar> soundray: I think so. I'd have to check the howto again
[03:14] <bipolar> actulay, I'd have to google for the howto since I don't have it bookmarked :p
[03:14] <scv> bipolar: it's still a brain-dead script for me
[03:15] <derelm> Pici: so it's not a common route. then i'll better do the switch when i actually have to resetup my machine anyways
[03:15] <bipolar> scv: then don't use it
[03:15] <Pici> derelm: Much better idea.
[03:15] <derelm> Pici: thanks
[03:15] <winggndm> any one testing out gnome 2.18?
[03:15] <LucidFox> is anyone celebrating RMS's birthday? :)
[03:15] <reborn> hello, can some one help me , i have been getting some weird problems ..
[03:16] <scv> LucidFox: when is?
[03:16] <reborn> it was working just fine yesterday , then i had some bugs going on when i installed kiba-dock
[03:16] <Huffalump> LucidFox, Eben Moglen?
[03:16] <kraypius> would there be any reason to use ubuntu server edition vs debian?
[03:16] <scv> LucidFox: what is RMS doing now?
[03:16] <LucidFox> scv> today
[03:16] <derelm> reborn: you will have to be more specific about your problems to get meaningful help
[03:16] <reborn> so i formated an dinstalled it thru the cd and now i cant see my 2nd HD and my firefox only works with certain pages.. not all
[03:16] <scv> LucidFox: O.O
[03:17] <Huffalump> kraypuis, cool factor?
[03:17] <LucidFox> March 16, 1953
[03:17] <kraypius> other than cool factor
[03:17] <scv> ((((((( Happy Birthday to RMS!!! )))))))
[03:17] <tian> i wanna make a server, what do you recommend me?
[03:17] <Huffalump> tian, I'd recommend using linux
 Jajaja</sacrcasm>
[03:18] <reborn> derelm: its like this i can open google, but not yahoo, i can open microsoft but not appe, and the when i try to run the upgrade manager it downloads some upgrades but not others...
[03:18] <Huffalump> kraypius, you might gain some system familiarity.  that's all I can think of.
[03:18] <arrow> does anyone know of a site with a list of products that are linux compatible?
[03:18] <tian> i mean server edition or pure debian or fedora core
[03:18] <Pici> reborn: Have you tried disabling ipv6?
[03:18] <Pici> !harware > arrow
[03:19] <derelm> reborn: which version of ubuntu did you install?
[03:19] <Pici> !hardware > arrow
[03:19] <nightwatch> [Pici] : then is enough to add "universe" to deb url in source list to archives and security???
[03:19] <Huffalump> tian, in #ubuntu you are likely to find most people recommend... wait for it... Ubuntu
[03:19] <reborn> Pici: i dont know whattha is...
[03:19] <scv> LucidFox: did RMS refer his successor today?
[03:19] <reborn> derelm:  the lates...
[03:19] <arrow> Pici: www.!hardware.com?
[03:19] -mfd:#ubuntu- join #chinstrap for chinstrap linux
[03:19] <Pici> !hardware | arrow
[03:19] <fisheye> hi guys
[03:19] <ubotu> arrow: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[03:19] <tian> but still i?ts a derivate from debian
[03:19] <fisheye> i'm trying to put Processing to work, but i cant get the java thingy working
[03:19] <derelm> reborn: the latest stable (edgy eft) or the latest unstable (feisty fawn)?
[03:19] <Pici> !ipv6 | reborn look at this guide
[03:19] <ubotu> reborn look at this guide: To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[03:19] <fisheye> what does this comand do ?? ln -s /usr/lib/j2re1.5-sun java
[03:20] <LucidFox> scv> successor?
[03:20] <tian> gotta go
[03:20] <scv> umm
[03:20] <Huffalump> tian, if you want a variety of opinions, it might be wiser to search on Google or try something general like #linux
[03:20] <reborn> derelm:  edgy
[03:20] <Pici> fisheye: It creates a link (kinda like a shortcut)
[03:20] <mfd> Hmm.. How would one go about making an Ubuntu based distro?
[03:20] <dimeotane> does anyone know of something fast like DD for copying lots of files (cp is to slow)... but which doesn't bother to also copy the empty space on the drive.
[03:20] <arrow> thx
[03:20] <bulmer> fisheye: what do you mean you cant get java to work? can you elaborate?
[03:20] <fisheye> who do i erase that link?
[03:20] <reborn> !ipv6
[03:20] <ubotu> To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[03:20] <fisheye> processing doesnt draw anything java based, bun opengl based seems good
[03:21] <fisheye> should i erase that link i made?
[03:21] <semion> I have problem with installing the nvidia drivers
[03:21] <reborn> Pici:  but it worked fine yesterday
[03:21] <derelm> reborn: the ipv6 might help you.  the other thing, is that just another partition of your hd which you don't see or is it a real 2 disk?
[03:21] <Answer> anybody have a windows virus scanner to run on the ubuntu side of a dual-boot?
[03:21] <kraypius> answer, nod32
[03:21] <winggndm> whats a virus?
[03:21] <bulmer> fisheye: you have the correct java working you think?
[03:21] <LightCatcher> Are there any MSN clients for edgy that have file transfers at a speed like I would have if I used MSN in windows?
[03:21] <Huffalump> semion, I used ENVY which made the process painless
[03:22] <joenavelh> join#ubuntu
[03:22] <reborn> derelm: yeah its anothe hd it worked on my last install, but i cant see it now.. altho the bios an dthe install software sees it
[03:22] <michiel__> joenavelh: hello claudius
[03:22] <Answer> joenavelh: you are already in channel #ubuntu
[03:22] <bulmer> LightCatcher: wget not fast enuff for you?
[03:22] <fisheye> dont know
[03:22] <joenavelh> yeah how are you mivh
[03:22] <semion> I used it too
[03:22] <semion> But it still doesn't work
[03:22] <fisheye> how do i check if my java is working
[03:22] <michiel__> Answer: haha, i'm instructing him to join this channel
[03:22] <Pici> Anyone else here get an unsolicted message from someone named mfd about chainstrap linux?
[03:22] <LightCatcher> bulmer: It's so I can transfer easily with my windows user friends.
[03:22] <fisheye> and still, processing comes with java and jikes along
[03:22] <michiel__> joenavelh: i'm fine
[03:22] <fisheye> so .... im kinda stuk on its install
[03:23] <fisheye> its suposed to just unpack and work
[03:23] <LightCatcher> Can you use wget to accept an msn file transfer?
[03:23] <michiel__> joenavelh: this is the user support channel for ubuntu (edgy)
[03:23] <derelm> reborn: can't see it as in 'there is no /dev/hda... for my drive' or as in 'it's not automatically mounted on boot into a special directory'?
[03:23] <joenavelh> so mich what should i learn today
[03:23] <semion> I always got errors after restart
[03:23] <dimebar> LightCatcher: which ones have you tried?  aMSN may be quicker than gaim
[03:23] <michiel__> joenavelh: if you speak against someone directly type his username with : before the message, it would be more clear
[03:23] <bulmer> LightCatcher: which server and services are hosting the files to be transferred? peer to peer is different
[03:24] <Bauldrick> LightCatcher > Kmess I've seen
[03:24] <reborn> derelm: i cant see it as in theres no /dev/hdb
[03:24] <dimeotane> speaking of wget does anyone know if it will resume large file transfers which are interrupted?  I was downloading an ISO in firefox and it got interrupted so I had to start over  =(
[03:24] <semion> that it can't run X server because the drivers configured bad..
[03:24] <semion> How can I fix it?
[03:24] <fisheye> any one uses processing on ubuntu?
[03:24] <Pici> dimeotane: I believe theres a wget switch that will resume transfers, check the man page
[03:24] <joenavelh> ok michiel
[03:24] <LightCatcher> dimebar: I've only tried gaim.
[03:24] <bulmer> fisheye: you need to prefix your response with a nick if it was meant for specific person
[03:24] <derelm> reborn: and dmesg | grep hdb isn't helpful either?
[03:24] <fisheye> oh!
[03:24] <fisheye> ok
[03:24] <semion> please?
[03:24] <LightCatcher> I want a program that will do direct connects with windows msn clients.
[03:24] <michiel__> joenavelh: you can use the tab key to auto complete the username, just like the commandline
[03:25] <LightCatcher> Is that possible?
[03:25] <LightCatcher> (gaim goes through the msn server)
[03:25] <joenavelh> micheil thank for thats correction
[03:25] <reborn> derelm: to be honest im sort of new to linux so i didnt know athts actualy existed and honestly o dont know what it does...
[03:25] <fisheye> like this
[03:25] <michiel__> ok
[03:25] <fisheye> bulmer: how do i check if my java is working
[03:25] <bulmer> LightCatcher: i dont know, i have not used msn before
[03:25] <joenavelh> mok
[03:26] <semion> Please the nvidia drivers Doesn't work...
[03:26] <bulmer> fisheye: java --version, btw what makes you think your java is not working?
[03:26] <semion> ?
[03:27] <LightCatcher> I'll try aMSN. Thank you for your help, everyone!
[03:27] <Huffalump> semion, your next step will be here, then -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[03:27] <bulmer> LightCatcher: typically client to client convo is not the usual way, client to server then to another client
[03:27] <fisheye> just the fact that processing can do anything else but use java i guess
[03:27] <derelm> reborn: 'dmesg | grep hdb' at a console run as root will output everything concerning hdb during startup of ubuntu. you'll probably need to run it with sudo : sudo dmesg | grep hdb
[03:27] <LightCatcher> bulmer: Yes but MSN does client to client.
[03:27] <LightCatcher> bulmer: between two windows users, anyways
[03:27] <assasukasse> hi everyone, could someone help me with samba
[03:27] <bulmer> LightCatcher: you really think so its client to client? dont you have to be logged on their server?
[03:27] <dimebar> LightCatcher: http://amsn-project.net/index.php
[03:27] <Pici> fisheye: I'm just watching the conversation here, what is 'processing'?
[03:28] <reborn> derelm: thx ill try it... if it dosent work ill be back.. im on my mates pc... thx alot...
[03:28] <padee> hi world. i have troubles to get a connection between a belkin 2.4ghz 802.11g wireless router and my thinkpadT42. does anyone has any suggestions? would be too kool
[03:28] <semion> I'll try it
[03:28] <LightCatcher> bulmer: The gaim page says it's client to client.
[03:28] <dimebar> LightCatcher: on their home page they quote "Full-speed File transfers"
[03:28] <fisheye> pici http://processing.org/
[03:28] <LightCatcher> bulmwe: If my memory serves me correctly, but I could be wrong.
[03:28] <fisheye> its a ... a....
[03:28] <fisheye> how can i put it
[03:28] <Pici> fisheye: ty, I'll take a look
[03:28] <bulmer> LightCatcher: easy to verify, do not connect to the internet.. .like to client in a private network and use msn to see if you can do direct transfer
[03:28] <derelm> reborn: there might be a hint on why hdb doesn't work, fingers crossed
[03:28] <fisheye> i makes interactive thingys :P
[03:29] <Shrimpy_> i have a question about network manager
[03:29] <kraypius>  WHO WANTS TO PLAY ME ARMAGETRON
[03:29] <kraypius> heh
[03:29] <fisheye> i want to do some instalation art so im learning how to use it. But i hate double booting... blender here,, processing there
[03:29] <reborn> derelm: ill be back soon .. realy thanx alot man
[03:29] <fisheye> bulmer : java --version doenst return anithing
[03:29] <Shrimpy_> when i look for wireless connection it shows them at 100% strentgh, and i know that is not correct all the time. any one know about this?
[03:30] <MarcN> dimeotane: wget -c http://..../
[03:30] <LightCatcher> This is what it says in the gaim faq:  Gaim only supports tranferring files over MSN via the MSN servers.  This means all your data is sent to an MSN server and then forwarded to the person at the other end of the transfer.  It is unknown whether we will support true peer to peer file transfer over MSN.
[03:30] <LightCatcher> perhaps I made some wrong assumptions based on that info
[03:30] <dimeotane> cool thx MarcN
[03:31] <LightCatcher> It seems to suggest that MSN does peer to peer, which I assumed was direct connection... I'm not exactly sure how filesharing works.
[03:31] <MarcN> dimeotane: Don't remember if you needed to start it that way the first time.  I always use -c just in case.
[03:32] <dimeotane> MarcN: do you ever find that wget doesn't work though with http:// links with a file served with .php   that it needs http://server.isp.com/folder/file
[03:32] <LightCatcher> Is peer to peer a direct connection?
[03:32] <LightCatcher> It sure sounds like it! :)
[03:33] <cobelloy> hi I am having some trouble using pppconfig on ubuntu server - the modem is dialling but not connecting to the isp
[03:33] <cobelloy> anyone here know about using pppconfig to get a dialup connection?
[03:33] <dimeotane> heh modem.. theres a blast from the past
[03:33] <cobelloy> yes, we are a bit remote out here
[03:34] <cobelloy> no adsl
[03:34] <dimeotane> fair enuf.. .I hear that all the time actually
[03:34] <Tail1> modem isn't that like a record LO
[03:34] <cobelloy> har har ...
[03:34] <Arkadius> ...never know when you may need to send a fax..
[03:34] <cobelloy> so anyone know about modems then?
[03:34] <bulmer> fisheye: if java -version does not work maybe java is not installed
[03:35] <erUSUL> !dial-up
[03:35] <ubotu> You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[03:35] <tj239> What is the variable to add that makes firefox to always open unmaxed?
[03:35] <erUSUL> !dial-up > cobelloy
[03:35] <nugenoa> Where are the wallpapers setup in ubuntu?
[03:35] <cobelloy> erUSUL: im sorry, I dont know what that means...
[03:35] <jpjacobs> nugenoa, rightclick on the background
[03:35] <rpereira> Hi, I installed 2 laboratories with 20 machines each with Ubuntu. But I have 10 OSes for each machine. I created an floppy disk with grub, but I don't know how to load the menu.lst from floppy to my MBR.
[03:35] <Pici> cobelloy:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[03:36] <bulmer> LightCatcher: you can use irc clients to transfer files..dcc them...windows to linux and vice versa
[03:36] <LightCatcher> Thank you bulmer
[03:36] <fisheye> bulmer:...but i have some java pacages installed
[03:36] <fisheye> darn
[03:36] <nugenoa> jpjacobs, what folder?
[03:36] <LightCatcher> But I'm trying to make it easier on my windows MSN using friends.
[03:37] <cobelloy> ty, I just realised I got that sent to me
[03:37] <Shrimpy_> Hello, when i look for wireless connection it shows them at 100% strentgh, and i know that is not correct all the time. any one know about this?
[03:37] <Pici>  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[03:37] <Pici> mis-paste
[03:37] <bulmer> LightCatcher: there are irc clients like mirc that supports dcc transfer..dont be too hard on yourself
[03:37] <jpjacobs> nugenoa, what do you mean? just richtclick whereever there are no icons
[03:38] <LightCatcher> Well any method would be easy for me, so why not use a method that's easy for both me and my friends?
[03:38] <jpjacobs> then a menu comes up, where you choose the wallpaper item
[03:38] <nugenoa> I mean, what folder are they stored. I know how to change them.
[03:38] <bulmer> fisheye: what exactly are you trying to do or trying to achieve?
[03:38] <jpjacobs> nugenoa, /usr/share/backgrounds if i'm not mistaken
[03:38] <bulmer> LightCatcher: umm irc is not easy enuff for your friends?
[03:38] <fisheye> bulmer : trying to get processing to work. But no java suport.
[03:38] <fisheye> bulmer: it uses opengl just fine, just not java
[03:38] <bulmer> fisheye: can you elaborate what do you mean by so-called processing?
[03:39] <nugenoa> jpjacobs, Yep. Thanks.
[03:39] <fisheye> bulmer : oops, sorry, Processing is a program to make interactive visuals
[03:39] <bulmer> fisheye: btw java does not solve all your programming issues
[03:39] <fisheye> bulmar : it brings java and jikes out of the box (so they say) but still no luck
[03:39] <LightCatcher> bulmer: Yes.
[03:40] <cobelloy> OK - going to try again with instructions from link - wish me luck ... please!
[03:40] <Dekkard> If there are any Feisty Devs here.... this release just plain freekin Rocks..thanks
[03:40] <fisheye> bulmer: yes i know, but a simple comnado like --backgraund(0); should work
[03:40] <bulmer> fisheye: jikes is just another java derivative if i recall, can possibly be another jre..
[03:41] <LightCatcher> Well, I'll try aMSN now atleast. Thank you bulmer.
[03:41] <bulmer> fisheye: you're trying to program in java using swing or whatever their graphic classes are? can you visit the #java channel to get additional help?
[03:42] <Stonekeeper> Guys, please. Is there a way of modprobing a custom driver from the Server installer, before probing for the harddisks?
[03:42] <fisheye> bulmer: well, i already lost 2 hour trying to get it working. I guess i just got to dual boot and take it . thanks for your time. I'll try again tomorow or so
[03:42] <fisheye> bulmer: yes, i'll take a strool down #java to see if they can help
[03:42] <fisheye> thanks
[03:42] <bulmer> fisheye: wasted two hours? nothing is wasted only gained the experience and learned :P

[03:43] <fisheye> bulmer : i just get sore eyes and delay my projects :P all the pron i could have downloaded ....
[03:44] <bulmer> Stonekeeper: you can probable create your own customized initrd to replace your livecd..go see ulinux or microlinux its called to compile your own kernel and customize drivers and such
[03:44] <bulmer> fisheye: now you're talking, that is surely a missed opportunities
[03:45] <pablo> holaaa
[03:45] <fisheye> heheheh
[03:45] <rpereira> Does someone knows how to load a Grub boot disk to MBR on my hard disk.
[03:45] <rpereira> ?
[03:45] <rpereira> I have 40 machine to reload grub and I'm looking for the easy way to do this using a boot disk
[03:46] <IcemanV9> rpereira: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[03:46] <Stonekeeper> bulmer: I'm thinking of modprobing from the installer. This seems possible from tty1. What do you think?
[03:46] <dv5237_> i just installed edgy but when i want to remove the default two desktop icons (Computer, Garbage bin) it tells me the icons cant be removed whats that all about?
[03:46] <Stonekeeper> *tty2 sorry
[03:47] <IcemanV9> !away > rainerstoff
[03:47] <rpereira> IcemanV9: Thanks.
[03:47] <erUSUL> !icons
[03:47] <ubotu> Want to see volume/trash icons on the desktop? Go to /apps/nautilus/desktop in gconf-editor (Gnome) or go to http://kudos.berlios.de/kf/kisimlar/tipsntrix.html#showtrash (KDE)
[03:47] <dst3> does anyone have any idea which file contains the settings for the ubuntu login screen... i want to make gdm start regular graphical local login screen instead of "emote Login via XDMCP".
[03:47] <bulmer> Stonekeeper: i believe it is very possible, just not with the stock livecd you have downloaded, am sure you have to hack those initrd and isolinux.cfg
[03:47] <sparrw> how do i turn on external scp/ssh on ubuntu?
[03:47] <puff> Hey, what's the link for installing java via apt?
[03:48] <bulmer> i meant modify not hack..lolz
[03:48] <knoppix> heyt
[03:48] <Stonekeeper> bulmer: why? modprobe seems available.... Am I missing something here?
[03:48] <Pici> !java
[03:48] <Andy__> I just installed ATI drivers. Now when i boot ubuntu i get a messed up desktop BG and a useless mouse cursor
[03:48] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[03:49] <Andy__> Anyone know what i did wrong and how to fix it?
[03:49] <kraypius> is it just me or did there used to be an option in gAIM to make the buddy list icons smaller and now its gone?
[03:49] <bulmer> Stonekeeper: yes you are missing something me thinks, you wanted to load drivers before your hard disk? those are done way ahead noh? so you think you can somehow get around initrd that load stuff on ram ?
[03:50] <IcemanV9> Andy__: change your xorg.conf to the original (or backup) xorg.conf (/etc/X11)
[03:50] <rizhun> kraypius: I don't know, but I wish it was there now.  It's a bit on the boxy side.
[03:51] <Andy__> How exactly might i do that? i am unfamilliar with linux commands and rename tells me i cant use "xorg" and "conf" something with subs? How would i replace it?
[03:51] <dv5237_> i just installed edgy but when i want to remove the default two desktop icons (Computer, Garbage bin) it tells me the icons cant be removed whats that all about?
[03:51] <kraypius> hrm
[03:51] <dst3> Andy: can you access the terminal login.  if you cant then do it from recovery mode
[03:51] <TuGGer> Hi. Using Apache + SSL + PHP4, my local https pages load OK, but the http pages do not. I've loaded both 'x-httpd php' (typing from bad memory here) in apcahe.conf. Anyone know where else I should look to fix this?
[03:51] <jrib> Andy__: mv not rename
[03:51] <Stonekeeper> bulmer: ok, you know when the installer boots, you can drop to a console on CTL-ALT-F2. From here I could unmount the CDROM, put in a CD with my driver, mount/modprobe, replace install cd. When it comes to detecting harddisks, would it not realise that this module is loaded? How does it work with RHEL (which seems to just modprobe drivers)?
[03:51] <Andy__> mv where?
[03:51] <Andy__> i should use mv to replace right?
[03:51] <jrib> Andy__: I don't know.  What are you trying to do?
[03:52] <Andy__> I am trying to get ATI drivers setup right. i followed a tutorial and rebooted it loaded everything, then the desktop is messed up reds and blues and theres a frozen mouse that i can move
[03:52] <OuZo> how can i increase the font size in emacs? thanks
[03:52] <Andy__> How do i fix this
[03:53] <dst3> Andy:  download a default xorg.conf file..then boot into recovery mode and find where your current xorg.conf file sits..then replace it with the default file
[03:53] <reborn> Pici: i dissabled the ipv6 and i stll can only acces a few sites..
[03:53] <IcemanV9> Andy__: open the terminal, cd /etc/X11, sudo mv xorg.conf.original-0 xorg.conf, ctrl+alt+backspace
[03:53] <Andy__> Greaty
[03:53] <padee> has someone an idea how to hook up to a wireless network over a belkin router?
[03:53] <Andy__> im gonna right that down
[03:54] <Andy__> ok, then how would i configure the ati serer properly?
[03:54] <rizhun> padee: I've done that. What have you tried so far?
[03:54] <IcemanV9> Andy__: i have ati driver ... you'll need to investigate the log and find out what's going on (var/log/Xlog.0.log)
[03:54] <Andy__> i mean how would i configure the ati drivers?
[03:54] <neo_> Hey guys, I'm trying to get my Edgy Eft Computer to see my windows shares on the network.
[03:54] <Andy__> I'll have to keep rebooting into windows and back then
[03:54] <neo_> Anyone able to help?
[03:54] <dv5237_> i just installed edgy but when i want to remove the default two desktop icons (Computer, Garbage bin) it tells me the icons cant be removed whats that all about?
[03:55] <padee> rizhun: i have the internet working, ubuntu has the right access point and i am able to configure the router from my notebook
[03:55] <bulmer> Stonekeeper: im not well versed yet at that level, am still learning how the internals of the boot process are done
[03:55] <dst3> what program handles graphical login... is it gdm ?? does gdm also handle the remote login via XDMCP screen ??
[03:55] <IcemanV9> Andy__: what's the model of ati card?
[03:55] <rizhun> padee: Sounds like its working then. What exactly is the problem?
[03:55] <padee> rizhun: the network adapter somehow does not have any signal...
[03:55] <Bauldrick> OK - I followed the guide to get dvd running - installed the codecs etc... I'm still getting this "blue screen" where the picture should be
[03:55] <Andy__> Ati Mobility Radeon 9200
[03:55] <Andy__> isnt there a quick command or something?
[03:56] <rizhun> padee: Have you installed network-manager-gnome ?
[03:56] <padee> rizhun: yes.
[03:56] <Stonekeeper> I'm going to try it. I really wish Ubuntu had a way of installing 3rd party drivers at install time. I think it's one enormous oversight. At least you could use it to support new hardware on LTS systems.
[03:56] <padee> rizhun: other wlan networks work properly
[03:56] <shufla> hello. I've managed to have ldap auth with apache mod_auth_ldap, but I cannot configure '
[03:56] <IcemanV9> Andy__: there is no quick one; just have patience and get it work step by step ... log file will help you lots.
[03:56] <rizhun> padee: What model is your Belkin router?
[03:57] <neo_> Come on... can anyone help me get Ubuntu to access my windows network shares?
[03:57] <bulmer> Stonekeeper: maybe one of those consoles are in debug mode, so yeah you probable can insert modules are the right moments, im just not familiar enuff with specific distros
[03:57] <shufla> 'require group' directive - is there anyone who'd like/is able to help me?
[03:57] <Andy__> Ok
[03:57] <TuGGer> Andy: did you choose 'custom' when installing the driver?
[03:57] <Andy__> so what do i have to do after replace xorg conf?
[03:57] <padee> rizhun: there it starts... on the router it only sais belkin 2.4ghz 802.11g... iwconfig sais:5.21ghz
[03:58] <IcemanV9> Andy__: to get X working again; you'll have to restart again, but this time go step by step as in the instruction in wiki (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto)
[03:58] <jin> hi
[03:58] <Andy__> I already installed it i just need to configure
[03:59] <jin> my ubuntu system is slower than windows xp. it's less responsive
[03:59] <jin> :\
[03:59] <Andy__> i only want to get beryl and i need to do all this D:
[03:59] <padee> rizhun: and more, iwconfig says: link quality 0/94 and power management:off...
[03:59] <rizhun> padee: But you can open the web-front-end of the router in a browser?
[03:59] <padee> rizhun: yes
[03:59] <hoelk> jin: mine too with kde, but quite ok with gnome
[03:59] <rizhun> padee: Then you are connected to the network regardless of the singal quality.
[03:59] <hoelk> kde works perfectly on my laptop though, and my laptop has less ram and mhz (?)
[04:00] <jin> I'm using gnome with nvidia drivers install
[04:00] <IcemanV9> Andy__: i don't meant by reinstall it. sorry. yeah, you need to get a "new" xorg.conf. you'll need to leave out beryl until you got it up and running first. :)
[04:00] <jin> it's still slow
[04:00] <padee> rizhun: oh. of course, over the network-cable. sorry... wasn't aware of that...
[04:00] <Andy__> crap
[04:00] <rizhun> padee: Is there a log you can see on that web-front-end?
[04:00] <rizhun> ohh
[04:00] <jin> when moving windows, it leaves traces behind for less than half a second
[04:00] <Andy__> Why is linux so easy and so darn difficult at the same time!? lol
[04:01] <rizhun> padee: If you can see and connect to other wireless networks, then it isn't a problem with Unbuntu, but a problem with your router.
[04:01] <jin> !nvidia
[04:01] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:01] <rizhun> padee: Is this the first time you've tried to connect Ubuntu to the router?
[04:01] <padee> rizhun: over wlan i cannot acces the router interface... of course...
[04:02] <michiel___> wow
[04:02] <padee> rizhun: to this router? no, its the 2nd time
[04:02] <padee> rizhun: i got the log
[04:03] <rizhun> padee: So it has worked in the past?
[04:03] <padee> rizhun: it works perfectly over ethernet-cables and over wlan in windows
[04:03] <mattedd> first time ubuntu (or linux for that matter) user here
[04:03] <reborn> hello, can anyone help me, i have just re-installed, ubuntu, and last night before i did it everything was working fine , but today when i formated and reinstalled it my internet if all screwy i can only load certain pages, like google, and the same thing is happening with teh upgrade installer some installs will download and athers wont.. some one told me to dissable IPV6 but it made no difference..

[04:05] <kraypius> gah gcc is being lame: checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[04:05] <jin> !upgrade
[04:05] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[04:05] <kraypius> what is wrong with my compiler?
[04:06] <padee> rizhun: can it be, that it has something to do with dhcp?
[04:06] <bulmer> kraypius: you are in a directory that you have permission to write on?
[04:06] <rizhun> padee: Do you have MAC Filtering turned on?
[04:07] <kraypius> bulmer, yes
[04:07] <sigger> is there a util to print from the command line to a network printer that ubuntu is aware of?
[04:07] <Math^> hello, ive installed a LAMPserver, and local i can see my websites, but others cant see them, it keeps loading and shows nothing... can some tell me what might go wrong? this is the link: http://77.162.7.132/blogger/
[04:07] <bulmer> kraypius: are you sure?
[04:07] <reborn> hello, can anyone help me, i have just re-installed, ubuntu, and last night before i did it everything was working fine , but today when i formated and reinstalled it my internet if all screwy i can only load certain pages, like google, and the same thing is happening with teh upgrade installer some installs will download and athers wont.. some one told me to dissable IPV6 but it made no difference..
[04:07] <kraypius> bulmer, its a subdirectory of my desktop
[04:07] <sigger> Math^: (1) can it been seen from within your lan, (2) does your isp block port 80 (many do)
[04:08] <Lordveda> Does Ubuntu have Gnome 2.18?
[04:08] <kraypius> bulmer, and i just checked the permissions
[04:08] <bulmer> kraypius: what are you compiling ? using configure?
[04:08] <kraypius> yeah configure
[04:08] <bulmer> kraypius: what program are you trying to compile?
[04:08] <kraypius> bulmer, the gaim extra preferences plugin
[04:08] <Math^> sigger: yes, within i can see, and about the blocking of port80 i dont know... ive changed the port in skype to some other port
[04:09] <sigger> Math^: ah I see you can see it local. ok so perhaps router is not forwarding port 80 or isp blocks
[04:09] <Math^> ive setup port forwarding
[04:09] <Math^> http://img295.imageshack.us/img295/7308/speedtouchwx4.png
[04:09] <sigger> don't think skype would matter.  port 80 is standard http
[04:09] <padee> rizhun: in mac filtering there is not a single entry... so it's off
[04:09] <sigger> whose your isp?
[04:09] <Math^> sigger: what is an isp?
[04:09] <bulmer> kraypius: can you try it as root and see if it goes away?
[04:09] <Shrimpy_> internet service provider
[04:09] <sigger> internet service provider
[04:09] <Math^> ooh
[04:10] <padee> rizhun: the strange thing is, that i don't get any signal at all on my laptop... even tough, the router is transmitting
[04:10] <Math^> sigger: kpn direct-adsl
[04:10] <sigger> kpn?
[04:10] <kraypius> bulmer, i guess. was trying to avoid that
[04:10] <superoe> hi guys
[04:10] <superoe> anyone can help me with a question ?
[04:10] <sigger> kentucky power & nuggets?
[04:10] <Math^> sigger: my connection?
[04:10] <bulmer> kraypius: sometimes you cant if you need to install
[04:10] <rizhun> padee: Can you connect to other wireless routers?
[04:10] <sigger> what is kpn?
[04:10] <Shrimpy_> pedee: what's your wireless card?
[04:10] <heikki> superoe: ask
[04:10] <rizhun> padee: Or see any from network-manager-gnome?

[04:11] <Lordveda> May I ask whether or not there is a liveCD for Ubuntu that uses the final Gnome 2.18?
[04:11] <padee> rizhun: yes,i see other from network-gnome-manager
[04:11] <kraypius> bulmer, same error
[04:11] <rizhun> padee: It's got to be something on that router.  I would seriously concider a hard reset.
[04:11] <Math^> sigger: yes its kpn
[04:11] <Andeh> i am back
[04:11] <Andeh> I have sucsessfully booted ubuntu

[04:12] <rizhun> padee: If I was in your situation. I would hit the reset button on the router. Temporarily remove all security settings (back to factory settings) and try and connect again.
[04:12] <tres> how can i get it back ?
[04:12] <Pedro_187187> hi all.....  I am trying to get vsftpd started... but I'm getting 500 OOPS: could not bind listening IPv4 socket

[04:12] <IcemanV9> !ati > Andeh
[04:12] <sigger> Math^: dude, what is kpn? oh nvm. look, try changing the listen in your apache to another port (e.g. 8080) and try your url as http://[put in your ip] :8080.
[04:12] <tres> its  not on this disk, but ubuntu is...
[04:12] <Andeh> Whats the page for configuring binary ATI drivers again?
[04:12] <sigger> if that works, your port 80 is blocked
[04:12] <Shrimpy_> superoe: it will ask  you if you want to dual boot and creat a partion in the ubuntu setup (install)
[04:12] <Math^> sigger: ok
[04:12] <padee> my network card is atheros communications AR5212
[04:13] <Math^> sigger: good idea, brb thn
[04:13] <sigger> oh and restart apache if after you change the conf
[04:13] <tres> i would like to install grub on the mbr of the disk, who can help me out?
[04:13] <heikki> superoe: just don't format windows' partition
[04:13] <Math^> sigger: ok

[04:17] <sigger> Math^: there is a line with Listen on it I believe.  got that one?  what's it say?
[04:17] <F00> !chmod | gorski
[04:17] <ubotu> gorski: 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
[04:17] <Pedro_187187> I can't start vsftpd and the output of netstat -an shows this "tcp6       0      0 :::21                   :::*                    LISTEN"
[04:17] <Pedro_187187> but I can't find where this tcp6 binding is coming from
[04:17] <heikki> superoe: you have to fromat at least one partition (linux requires ext3/reiserfs/... filesystem)
[04:18] <IcemanV9> mad_man: i think there is plugin for osd w/ gaim. i am not sure though. check ubuntuforums.org.
[04:18] <Math^> sigger: got it
[04:19] <mad_man> IcemanCZ: ok, thx
[04:19] <Math^> it was: /etc/apache2/ports.conf... :)
[04:19] <sigger> Math^: whats the line say?  Listen 80 ?
[04:19] <Math^> yes
[04:19] <superoe> heikki: ?
[04:19] <Math^> i change it to 8080 now
[04:19] <sigger> apache2 I believe changed the filename
[04:19] <sigger> now try url of ip.ip.ip.ip:808
[04:19] <sigger> 8080 that is

[04:42] <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)
[04:42] <Huffalump> gorski - While I'm the type to recommend you do not use a WYSIWYG editor, you can check out http://nvu.com/
[04:42] <hole> :(
[04:42] <silver6> andeh: what video card do you have? i had problems installing the fglrx bin drivers at first too, a clean install of ubuntu worked for me
[04:42] <F00> StoneNote, can we join #ubuntu-classroom
[04:42] <Andeh> I have ATi Mobility Radeon 9200
[04:43] <Andeh> I checked the binary install page, following it CAUSES the problem, dont send me there
[04:43] <gorski> nvu is nice, but if i want to edit php sites?
[04:43] <IcemanV9> Andeh: post your xorg.conf @ pastebin
[04:43] <MrGreen> can I grab fawn ? ....
[04:43] <hole> anyway after creating the directory just type sudo mount /dev/sda5 /media/cdrom
[04:43] <Andeh> whats pastebin?
[04:44] <IcemanV9> !paste > Andeh
[04:44] <MrGreen> !fawn
[04:44] <ubotu> The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn"), it should be released in April 2007. At the moment it is alpha. Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyReleaseSchedule - Specifications (goals): https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/feisty - Help and support in #ubuntu+1 (NOT #ubuntu)
[04:44] <Andeh> uh?
[04:44] <IcemanV9> look at ubotu's pm
[04:44] <sipior> this sounds strangely familiar
[04:44] <nalioth> Andeh: look at your private messages
[04:44] <we2by> I like the "start menu" of suse linux :)
[04:44] <we2by> ops
[04:44] <MrGreen> looking for download of fawn?
[04:44] <hole> that should make you able to read the drive under that cdrom folder (cdrom is the folder I use to mount almost anything manually mounted)
[04:44] <rizhun> Andeh: pastebin is a place to paste output from a command. So you don't spam a channel.
[04:45] <gorski> what is funny?
[04:45] <Huffalump> gorksi, most folks would say don't be so lame as to use a WYSIWYG editor if you're playing with PHP.   For example, an interesting web editing tool is BlueFish (available in Synaptic)
[04:45] <MrGreen> !downloads
[04:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about downloads - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:45] <MrGreen> arggh!
[04:45] <Andeh> Wait the problem is that i replaced my XORG.CONF with the default one
[04:45] <MrGreen> !feistyfawn
[04:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about feistyfawn - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:46] <Andeh> So i would have to mess it up again to post it
[04:46] <Andeh> lol
[04:46] <Andeh> Now i am going to follow instructions again and paste what i get, ok?
[04:46] <MrGreen> Anyone point us to fawn downloads page please?
[04:46] <Andeh> yay
[04:46] <cypher1> nalioth, IMHO we should people give a warning if they paste in the channel and then only do something, since most ppl will be very new to GNU/Linux, irc, pastebing etc :)
[04:46] <nalioth> cypher1: they are given TWO warnings
[04:46] <sipior> nalioth: yes, i quite agree. that's a rude kick in the ass for a newbie, especially if it's only a few lines
[04:47] <nalioth> !paste | a1a121

[04:47] <cypher1> nalioth, ok sorry did not knew it

[04:47] <cypher1> a1a121, please use pastebin further

[04:47] <jgrau> hello. i'm looking for support on setting up a wireless network card to a wpa-psk router. the network card is correctly set up with ndiswrapper, but i have accedently deleted /etc/network/interfaces. how does one reconfigure that?
[04:47] <MrGreen> never mind.....

[04:48] <Andeh> my xorg.conf after configuring
[04:49] <cypher1> a1a121, can you try "sudo mkdir /tmp/windrive; sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /tmp/windrive" ?
[04:49] <a1a121> sec, i will try
[04:49] <kraypius> lol this example video that comes with ubuntu is retarted
[04:49] <F00> Hey, This is my problem: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10619/
[04:49] <kraypius> respect
[04:49] <kraypius> helpfulness
[04:49] <kraypius> sharing
[04:50] <kraypius> lmao
[04:50] <Andeh> The thing on pastebin is just the Default XORG.CONF after runing aticonfig
[04:50] <a1a121> cypher1, i did "sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /media"
[04:50] <nalioth> kraypius: #ubuntu-offtopic with that, please
[04:50] <a1a121> before you gave me that command
[04:50] <pdlnhrd> i know there is a setting to turn on  to allow for rendevous/avahi to look for rythmbox sharing... it was working but after upgrading it is now off again.  does someone know where this setting is?
[04:50] <a1a121> but i still cannot see it on /media
[04:50] <F00> StoneNote, you here
[04:50] <a1a121> and now when i insert your command i get "mount: according to mtab, /dev/sda1 is mounted on /media"
[04:51] <IcemanV9> Andeh: you have two devices section; ati AND fglrx ... please comment out ati section
[04:51] <xiaomai> i'm trying to build the kqemu module w/ make-kpkg, but it seems to want to be run in the actual kernel source  tree.  can i not just build the modules w/out having an image built too?
[04:51] <Andeh> ATI?
[04:51] <Andeh> OK
[04:51] <jgrau> is there a tool for configuring /etc/network/interfaces?
[04:51] <cypher1> a1a121, please paste the output of "mount" command
[04:51] <F00> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10619/
[04:51] <sipior> jgrau: doesn't System->Admin->Networking Tools do that?
[04:51] <naveen> how is everyone doing?
[04:52] <IcemanV9> Andeh: AND copy BusID line to fglrx section after last Option line .. then restart X (ctrl+atl+backspace)
[04:52] <a1a121> cypher1, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10621/
[04:53] <sipior> jgrau: Networking, rather, not Network Tools:)
[04:53] <Andeh> ok
[04:53] <jgrau> sipior: somehow that has become broken...
[04:53] <IcemanV9> Andeh: like this --> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10622/
[04:54] <sipior> jgrau: that's odd, how does it fail?
[04:54] <cypher1> a1a121, can you try "sudo ls /media" and see whether you can see anything ?
[04:54] <Andeh> OK i did that
[04:54] <Andeh> Rebooting
[04:54] <jgrau> sipior, actually, now it is back up :S but now it does not list my wireless card :(
[04:55] <Marlun> Is it possible to make "ls" only list directories?
[04:55] <IcemanV9> nooo ... just restart the X (too late, he's gone :( )
[04:55] <sipior> jgrau: ah, that's a bit tricky. do you use network manager?
[04:55] <a1a121> cypher1 yes i see my windows dir
[04:55] <rizhun> jgrau: Have you installed network-manager-gnome ?
[04:55] <kraypius> DOes anyone know of a device manager i can install that actually lets me enable/disable devices?
[04:55] <jgrau> rizhun, yes, that does not list my wireless card either
[04:55] <sipior> Marchange: ls -d
[04:55] <sipior> Marlun: ls -d
[04:55] <jgrau> sipior, yes
[04:55] <sipior> sorry Marchange
[04:55] <jrib> Marlun: no use find or if you use zsh, you can do:  ls -d *(/)
[04:55] <cypher1> a1a121, ok!
[04:56] <Marlun> sipior: doesn't work :P
[04:56] <Marlun> jrib: Don't know what zsh is?
[04:56] <jrib> Marlun: you can also do something like: ls -F | grep /
[04:56] <IcemanV9> !zsh
[04:56] <ubotu> zsh: A shell with lots of features. In component main, is optional. Version 4.3.2-13ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 2131 kB, installed size 6440 kB
[04:56] <jrib> Marlun: it's another shell
[04:56] <sipior> Marlun: you may have to give it a wildcard, of course
[04:57] <a1a121> cypher1, now, how do i move 2 files to there from my desktop? :p
[04:57] <sipior> Marlun: ls -d *
[04:57] <FJ_Sanchez> !nfs-client
[04:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nfs-client - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:57] <FJ_Sanchez> !nfs-common
[04:57] <ubotu> nfs-common: NFS support files common to client and server. In component main, is optional. Version 1:1.0.9-2ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 119 kB, installed size 388 kB
[04:57] <Marlun> sipior: listed files too.
[04:57] <sipior> jgrau: the problem comes about when you connect with your wireless card? or does it not work at all?
[04:57] <cypher1> a1a121, "sudo cp /media/... ~/Desktop"
[04:57] <Marlun> jrib: the ls -F |grep / worked.
[04:57] <Marlun> thanks both of you =)
[04:57] <cypher1> a1a121, you will always need sudo
[04:57] <lilrayray> Hi all, I am having some bad crashes, and despite the help of a couple people here on IRC, I still have the problem.  Luckily, I have some more info that might help diagnose the problem.  Anyway, randomly, when using a web browser (firefox, opera, etc) ubuntu will freeze completely.  When I am not surfing the web, ubuntu has yet to crash.  recently, I installed samba, and I got identicle crashes except right at the login scree
[04:57] <lilrayray> n.  Anyone have any idea what perhaps is causing this?
[04:58] <sipior> Marlun: i misunderstood what you wanted
[04:58] <jgrau> sipior, i can't really say. it does not list my wireless card at all
[04:58] <Marlun> sipior: ok :)
[04:58] <cypher1> a1a121, if you do not want it, then you can check the umask options in the mount command
[04:58] <a1a121> cyper1, why do i get sudo: cd: command not found when i try to sudo cd media ?
[04:58] <jrib> a1a121: cd is not a command, it is a shell built-in
[04:59] <molekyle> Hello i am trying to install beryl on my ubuntu OS. First i had no drivers for my ati radeon 9200 gfx card and i tried the command glxinfo | grep direct
[04:59] <molekyle> and it returned yes
[04:59] <ohir> lilrayray seem like hardware problem
[04:59] <cypher1> a1a121, "sudo cd /media"
[04:59] <jrib> a1a121: try this command to see:  type cd
[04:59] <rizhun> jgrau: Does your wireless card show in a 'lspci' ?
[04:59] <molekyle> then i installed the driver for my gfx card and now it returns no?
[04:59] <gordonjcp> uhm
[04:59] <gordonjcp> quick question
[04:59] <ohir> lilrayray or box with less than 128M RAM
[04:59] <gordonjcp> has www.ubuntu.com been defaced?
[04:59] <lilrayray> ohir: nah, I have 2 gb
[04:59] <a1a121> cypher1 sudo: cd: command not found
[04:59] <Marlun> I can do "tail" to get only the end, but what do I use to get the beginning?
[04:59] <jrib> Marlun: head
[04:59] <silver6> molekyle, what drivers did you install? fglrx?
[04:59] <IcemanV9> gordonjcp: no. a new look. :)
[05:00] <rizhun> gordonjcp: ??
[05:00] <ohir> lilrayray so its answer no 1
[05:00] <lilrayray> ohir: but, I can browse the home network without freezes, I can come on here without freezes
[05:00] <Marlun> jrib: thanks again :)
[05:00] <gordonjcp> IcemanV9: for given values of "new"
[05:00] <gordonjcp> IcemanV9: it's *awful*! ;-)
[05:00] <PriceChild> !offtopic | gordonjcp
[05:00] <molekyle> silver6: yes, i installed fglrx
[05:00] <ubotu> gordonjcp: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[05:00] <gordonjcp> PriceChild: heh, ok, ok
[05:00] <ohir> lilrayray check your DNS settings then
[05:00] <Shaba1> hello all

[05:01] <dyrne> Shaba1: a few of us :)
[05:01] <lilrayray> ohir: and also, is there anything in specific that I should be looking for?

[05:02] <kraypius> shrimpy im sure you could install kde on it tho
[05:02] <IcemanV9> !edubuntu | Shrimpy_
[05:02] <ubotu> Shrimpy_: Edubuntu is an Ubuntu derivative aimed at schools and educational institutions. For more info, see http://www.edubuntu.org
[05:02] <jrib> Shrimpy_: it's just geared towards education so a lot of educational software is installed by default
[05:02] <Shrimpy_> jrib: ok thank you

[05:03] <ohir> lilrayray fiest check if it relate to DNS. Give box enough time to sat "can't find someurl" or similar. If it does not say so for a couple of minutes, "freezes" likely are due to hardware.
[05:04] <jrib> Shaba1: hi
[05:04] <dyrne> Shaba1: whats the vmware question? if you want anything that scales id download vmware server from their website
[05:04] <Shrimpy_> jrib: so xubuntu is you are able to run gnome and kde
[05:04] <a1a121> jrib: permission denied
[05:04] <molekyle> silver6: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10624/
[05:04] <a1a121> cypher1, and on that command i get "sudo: cd: command not found"
[05:04] <Shaba1> what kind of educational softwar
[05:04] <jrib> a1a121: did you change the permissions?
[05:04] <ohir> lilrayray if it's DNS check your /etc/resolv.conf if there are valid dns server addresses (check with your isp)
[05:05] <a1a121> i dont know how to, i guess not
[05:05] <jrib> Shaba1: I don't know, you can visit edubuntu.org though.  I'm sure they have a list
[05:05] <cypher1> a1a121, you can try remounting /media with proper umask
[05:05] <lilrayray> ohir: ok, but i do not understand how to check if it is related to DNS
[05:05] <jrib> a1a121: tell us the result of this command:  ls -ld /media
[05:05] <silver6> molekyle, 2 things i notice right off. in Section "Device" change "ati" to "fglrx"
[05:05] <jrib> Shrimpy_: yes
[05:05] <ohir> lilrayray fiest check if it relate to DNS. Give box enough time to sat "can't find someurl" or similar. If it does not say so for a couple of minutes, "freezes" likely are due to hardware.
[05:05] <a1a121> jrib: ls -ld /media
[05:05] <dyrne> Shaba1: or sudo apt-get install edubuntu-desktop -s   or whatever metapackage name is
[05:05] <a1a121> oops sec

[05:09] <Jetfighter> rancor, wine ubtsetup.exe
[05:09] <reborn> o18:  you mean my pc or teh router
[05:09] <RiianF> my screensaver isn active. mmh
[05:09] <RiianF> maybe it some power-save setting
[05:09] <a1a121> cypher1 it is readable i can see my windows files
[05:10] <rancor> does it run okay and then not detect IE4+, or does it load a webpage and say "hey, this isnt IE4+"
[05:10] <a1a121> cypher1, now lets say i have a file named "123" on desktop, how do i move it to the windows partition?
[05:10] <molekyle> silver6: i still have the same problem?

[05:11] <jzono1> hey
[05:11] <molekyle> oh didnt reboot
[05:11] <ohir> lilrayray so said I don't know how to help you more. Such freezes usual are sign of HW problems, but also can be related to network/dns misconfigurations.
[05:11] <bafoc> cypher1: I heard there is a kernel module oh here called ntfs_g3 that will work for ubuntu
[05:11] <Jetfighter> It's a little message from the installer that says You need at least Internet Explorer version 4 to install this software or something like that.
[05:11] <Tangee> any idea what kinda default settings i can set to get recording beack again?
[05:11] <RiianF> @ cypher1 sure you can write to ntfs therer are new drivers. :D
[05:11] <a1a121> cypher1, so what can ido?
[05:11] <foutrelis> cypher1: Why not? ntfs-3g is stable :)

[05:11] <Jetfighter> rancor, should I take a screenshot of it?
[05:11] <cypher1> a1a121, you need to install ntfs-3g and use it
[05:11] <hole> is there a way to make the mouse work without x?
[05:11] <rancor> nah i've gotta leave work soon anyway

[05:12] <lilrayray> ohir: ok, well thanks for the help anyhow
[05:12] <rancor> normally id say wine just doesnt support the software, since it isnt very well known, but they advertise it as working under wine
[05:12] <Andeh> Oh no
[05:12] <Andeh> Iceman
[05:12] <Jetfighter> they do? Where?
[05:12] <Andeh> I keep messing it up

[05:13] <Esine> hey everyone I've got Ubuntu 6.06 x86 live cd here but I can't get X working here with my laptop. Actually all I need is the console, so can I just disable starting X when booting it up?
[05:13] <cypher1> a1a121, not sure.. but i dont think it will be there in livecd
[05:13] <Andeh> also, it says theres a default device invalid pointer so you need to change the ponter
[05:13] <IcemanV9> Andeh: what's happened?
[05:13] <dyrne> reborn: well if you cat /etc/resolv.conf  the simplest setup would be nameserver 192.168.1.3     <--gateway address is that what shows up?
[05:13] <Andeh> I suck at this, that happened
[05:13] <rancor> nevermind, there's software called universal backup something
[05:13] <logocide> hello

[05:13] <rancor> with the same acronym
[05:13] <rancor> that apparently works under linux
[05:13] <rancor> heh.
[05:13] <Jetfighter> :P
[05:14] <Andeh> cause every time i do it it gets messed up
[05:14] <dyrne> Esine: sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove   then youll have to sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start  to start it
[05:14] <logocide> whats wrong with your xorg file?
[05:14] <rancor> try emulating IE with wine at the same time
[05:14] <molekyle> silver6: thank you :)

[05:26] <Jetfighter> !grub
[05:26] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[05:26] <dyrne> reborn: does apt-get still work for packages? you can just dist-upgrade
[05:26] <foutrelis> F00: I can't figure out what's wrong with your apache. :(
[05:26] <Andeh> Direct Rendering: no
[05:26] <foutrelis> F00: Did you try rebooting the machine?
[05:26] <assasukasse> hi all i wanna control remotely my desktop but why the password can be only so small? this won't ensure security!
[05:26] <Andeh> How do i fix it?
[05:26] <Hyper-coo> f00: no blue screen. the cursor just stops
[05:26] <F00> foutrelis, no?
[05:26] <bafoc> DjDarkman: to find your  partitions do sudo fdisk -l
[05:26] <dyrne> reborn: id check with the ubuntu livecd if problem persists maybe it is an issue with the gateway or sometihgn that just happened to occur at same time
[05:27] <Andeh> Iceman how do i fix Direct rendering: no?
[05:27] <Hyper-coo> f00: i let it sit for over an hour. How long does livecd boot take?
[05:27] <foutrelis> F00: Reboot it and see what happens :)
[05:27] <reborn> dyrne: it works for some pacages but not for others
[05:27] <IcemanV9> Andeh: in your terminal, fglrxinfo (don't paste it in here :) ; just tell me if it did show info or not
[05:27] <silver6> andeh: is the fglrx module installed/loaded? type "lsmod | grep fglrx" in the console
[05:27] <bafoc> DjDarkman: to edit the menu.1st file, use vim, or gedit
[05:27] <dyrne> reborn: what country are you in?
[05:27] <DjDarkman> bafoc will it show what do I need to write in menu.lst to boot that partition?
[05:27] <Andeh> shows all info
[05:27] <Andeh> Says its mesa
[05:27] <Andeh> not good?
[05:27] <F00> btw foutrelis, im installing vhcs too, thats why i had to restart apache
[05:27] <silver6> andeh, mesa = not good
[05:27] <Andeh> How do i make it not mesa?
[05:28] <reborn> dyrne: brazil
[05:28] <DjDarkman> I`m confused with the  hdx,x syntax
[05:28] <Andeh> lol
[05:28] <F00> also, i installed phpmyadmin but when i go to it it says its a download
[05:28] <IcemanV9> Andeh: yeah. ah. that's why it shows direct rendering: no.
[05:28] <bafoc> DjDarkman: the fdisk command will show you what partitons you have, menu.1st will show you what partiton is the root boot partiton
[05:28] <Andeh> Ok, how do i fix it!?
[05:28] <silver6> andeh:  does anything come up when you type: lsmod | grep fglrx
[05:28] <DjDarkman> brb
[05:28] <DjDarkman> exit
[05:28] <rambo3> F00, you acess phpmyadmin from brpwser
[05:28] <foutrelis> F00: vhcs is virtual hosts?
[05:28] <Andeh> Nothing comes uo
[05:28] <IcemanV9> Andeh: but fglrx is up and running though. plse do what silver6 just asked.
[05:28] <Andeh> BRB TELEPHONE
[05:29] <silver6> andeh: ok fglrx is not installed then
[05:29] <F00> vhcs is a control panel
[05:29] <dyrne> reborn: maybe sudo sed -i 's/br.//' /etc/apt/sources.list; sudo apt-get update  if update works then it is problem with repos
[05:29] <reborn> dyrne: should feisty already be in the config.list ... do i just go in the terminal and try sudo apt-get feisty??? or do i have to do it manualy
[05:29] <foutrelis> F00: oh.
[05:29] <bafoc> DjDarkman: the hdx is the harddrive itself, when you see a number, that is the partiton, or extended partiton...
[05:29] <IcemanV9> Andeh: ah! it is not loaded.
[05:29] <F00> ok rebooted system
[05:29] <F00> now what
[05:29] <foutrelis> F00: Does apache2 start?
[05:29] <dyrne> reborn: try that first it update wont work then i dont think you can apt-get feisty youd have to download and burn
[05:29] <lorderunion> how stable is feisty?
[05:29] <DjDarkman> ok,how does hda5 look like in menu.lst?
[05:30] <reborn> dyrne: ok thx alot mate
[05:30] <jrib> lorderunion: it is not stable until it is released
[05:30] <reborn> dyrne: do u know a url for fiesty
[05:30] <Andeh> IcemanV9:  ok how do i load it then?
[05:30] <silver6> andeh: i insalled fglrx manually using method 2 of this guide: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Edgy_Installation_Guide#Method_2:_Install_the_8.34.8_Driver_Manually
[05:30] <IcemanV9> Andeh: silver6 will help ya; i really have to go ... will be back in 2 hrs or so. sorry. duty called.
[05:30] <lorderunion> jrib: i know that, but on a percentile, what would it be? 40% stable?
[05:30] <jrib> !feisty
[05:30] <F00> foutrelis, how do i tell
[05:30] <ubotu> The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn"), it should be released in April 2007. At the moment it is alpha. Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyReleaseSchedule - Specifications (goals): https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/feisty - Help and support in #ubuntu+1 (NOT #ubuntu)
[05:30] <Andeh> But i did install!
[05:30] <bafoc> DjDarkman: do a sudo df -h this will show you what each partitons setup
[05:30] <DjDarkman> ok i`ll try
[05:30] <DjDarkman> exit
[05:30] <dyrne> reborn: you can just search for it on ubuntu.com.  try the apt-get fix maybe you wont have to upgrade if it works
[05:31] <silver6> andeh: how did you install fglrx? do you have a link to the steps you followed?
[05:31] <bafoc> DjDarkman: it will also show you the mount point, etc... swap partition etc.
[05:31] <Andeh> Its on softpedia
[05:31] <Andeh> ill find it
[05:31] <dyrne> reborn: lunch time :) good luck
[05:31] <lorderunion> yeah that doesn't help, heh. nobody here can give me a percentile of how stable feisty is?
[05:31] <foutrelis> F00: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start

[05:32] <Dreamxtreme2> does any1 know how to remove beryl from startup it freezes my sysytem
[05:32] <Andeh> i used  sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx
[05:32] <poorenglish_> Hi anyone, for install driver nvidia in edgy, needs install "nvidia-glx" and something more?
[05:32] <a1a121> cypher1, i just installed ntfs-3g, how do i move something from my desktop to my win partition?
[05:32] <lorderunion> alright. nevermind.
[05:32] <foutrelis> F00: You need to edit /etc/apache2/sites-available/vhcs2.conf
[05:32] <rambo3> F00, remove Build date from config file
[05:33] <silver6> andeh: ok you installed the driver using the ubunutu repositores (i.e. method 1 of http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Edgy_Installation_Guide). this didn't work for me either. maybe try to do method 2 in that guide, it worked for me
[05:33] <Andeh> ok ill try
[05:33] <CreepyCrawly> afternoon guys
[05:33] <erUSUL> ubotu tell poorenglish_ about nvidia | poorenglish_ see priv msg from ubotu
[05:33] <Dreamxtreme2> any1 know the startup progs file
[05:34] <CreepyCrawly> is there anything wrong with "apt's" us.archive.ubuntu.com these days ?
[05:34] <silver6> andeh: basically you install the drivers from the file on the ati website, you might get better results
[05:34] <ady33> Can anyone help. I tried a dual boot with two hard drives yesterday. Master with XP and slave with ubuntu. Install fine but on boot up I got the error 21 from GRUB...
[05:34] <bafoc> Dreamxtreme2: you can goto System->Prefs->Sessions->Startup Programs
[05:34] <Andeh> NO
[05:34] <F00> rambo3, foutrelis, every one i hash out, the next one reports an error
[05:34] <poorenglish_> erUSUL: thx
[05:34] <Andeh> The ati site completely messed up ubuntu, they dont even HAVE drivers for my card on the site
[05:35] <Andeh> and the next closest one doesnt work
[05:35] <foutrelis> ady33: Try Super Grub Disk. It can be used to restore grub and fix it.
[05:35] <Andeh> so ill do it the other way
[05:35] <Dreamxtreme2> bafoc: i cant get there beryl startsup b4 and freeze the system
[05:35] <foutrelis> F00: Could you pastebin that conf file?
[05:35] <silver6> andeh: in that guide i sent, there is a link directly on the page to the file you need
[05:35] <Andeh> I am currently doing method t2
[05:35] <silver6> andeh: https://a248.e.akamai.net/f/674/9206/0/www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/ati-driver-installer-8.34.8-x86.x86_64.run
[05:35] <Andeh> ati radeon mobility 9200?
[05:35] <ady33> tnx
[05:36] <Andeh> Ok i will try that
[05:36] <bafoc> Dreamxtreme2: Before you logon, at the bottom left (ubuntu), choose sessions, and then choose the safe mode or something like that... this will bypass beryl
[05:36] <gerards> hi everyone. i just used aptitude's "graphical" interface via terminal, I want to upgrade libc, but it has conflicts. anyone else has this problem? I guess I shouldn't upgrade libc huh? (dapper drake).
[05:36] <F00> foutrelis, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10634/
[05:36] <Andeh> But method 2 is running in the bg!
[05:36] <silver6> andeh: its the same fglrx driver for all ati cards (as long as it supports fglrx)
[05:36] <Andeh> ok
[05:36] <Andeh> i really hope it does...
[05:36] <Dreamxtreme2> bafoc: its doesn't beryl still startups
[05:37] <silver6> the 9200 does, i checked the list
[05:37] <Andeh> OH NO!!!!!!!!!!
[05:37] <Andeh> MY CARD ISNT SUPPORTED!!!!!!!!!!
[05:37] <foutrelis> F00: That does not look like an apache conf file. I wonder why it's in /etc/apache/sites-enabled. :\
[05:37] <Andeh> Radeon 9500+     mine is 9200!!!
[05:37] <Andeh> Oh no
[05:37] <bafoc> Dreamxtreme2: then goto system->pref->sessions->start up -- btw, did you use the ubuntu guide that has you create 2 files, 1 a script and the other a Desktop file
[05:37] <Andeh> what do i do?
[05:37] <F00> foutrelis, its vhcs.conf
[05:38] <a1a121> how do i copy something from my desktop to my windows partition with ntfs-g3?
[05:38] <Andeh> Iceman, Silver, i dont think my cards supported!
[05:38] <bafoc> Dreamxtreme2:  that will start beryl when you logon?
[05:38] <Andeh> at least, it doesnt say that it is!
[05:38] <silver6> andeh: really? where did you see that? http://www.stanchina.net/~flavio/debian/fglrx-supported.txt
[05:38] <foutrelis> F00: And apache tries to read it. I wish I had experience with vhcs so I could be more helpful.
[05:38] <bafoc> Dreamxtreme2:  by default?
[05:38] <erUSUL> Caps > Andeh
[05:38] <Charybdis> a1a121: just select and copie ?
[05:38] <Andeh> On the crappy page you sent me earlier lol
[05:38] <Charybdis> *y
[05:38] <erUSUL> !caps > Andeh
[05:39] <a1a121> Charybdis: i get this "cp: cannot create regular file `/media/RTL1xxx_1.02.pkg.zip': Read-only file system" when i try
[05:39] <Andeh> sorry caps was on
[05:39] <Dreamxtreme2> bafoc: i cant even starup in gnome becuase of beryl in startup
[05:39] <Charybdis> a1a121: try reinstalling nfts-3g
[05:39] <silver6> andeh: i'm pretty sure it's supported. mobility radeon 9200 right? if so, it works
[05:39] <bafoc> Dreamxtreme2:  I understand that...
[05:39] <a1a121> Charybdis: i just installed it..
[05:39] <GionnyBoss> a1a121: what are you trying to do?
[05:39] <mzelem> Does anyone know what would cause me to not be able to mount CD-RW's? I can mount a normal CD just fine, but not any CD-RW's.
[05:39] <foutrelis> a1a121: Where is your windows partition mounted?
[05:39] <bafoc> Dreamxtreme2:  look at this link... is this similar to how you setup berly? http://wiki.beryl-project.org/index.php/Install/Ubuntu/Edgy/AiGLX
[05:40] <Hyper-coo> f00: i'm not getting a blue screen, it just stops moving. how long should cdboot take?
[05:40] <a1a121> foutrelis: /media
[05:40] <Dreamxtreme2> yea buy
[05:40] <a1a121> GionnyBoss: im trying to copy something from my desktop (im on livecd atm) to my windows partition
[05:40] <GionnyBoss> a1a121: is not a good idea to mount on /media ... mount it on /media/something
[05:40] <Andeh> Oh no!
[05:40] <Andeh> My disk space is up!
[05:40] <Charybdis> have you followed these instuctions: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217009 ?
[05:40] <F00> Hyper-coo, lesss than 10 mins
[05:40] <Andeh> noooo!
[05:40] <a1a121> well i already mounted it.. does it really matter?
[05:40] <Charybdis> doesn't ntfs do that auto ?
[05:41] <GionnyBoss> a1a121: when you insert a CD or a USB hd, it will mount it on /media/something ... so maybe there will be a conflict if you mount something on media when you insert a CD or a USB hd
[05:41] <silver6> andeh: since you previously tried method 1 (installing from repositories), make sure you dont forget to add DISABLED_MODULES="fglrx" to /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common or else it won't work
[05:41] <MartinE> Hi all
[05:41] <Dreamxtreme2> bafoc:  yea but they told me to put beryl in startup
[05:41] <Andeh> ???
[05:41] <foutrelis> a1a121: And is the partition's name in /dev/ ?
[05:41] <Andeh> I cant do anything, im out of disk space
[05:41] <silver6> andeh: it's in the instructions, don't worry
[05:41] <Andeh> how do i resize the partition? i cant find
[05:41] <bafoc> Dreamxtreme2: I know, but you can remove the startup file
[05:41] <Andeh> gparted
[05:41] <silver6> hehe, ok well i can't help you there :P
[05:41] <MartinE> sorry to ask such a basic question but I'm new to all this. Is it possible for me to install Ubuntu on my PC which is already running Vista so to have dual boot option?
[05:42] <Dreamxtreme2> bafoc: how
[05:42] <GionnyBoss> a1a121: I suggest you to mount it in /media/windows or media/what_you_want
[05:42] <Andeh> where is gparted?
[05:42] <bafoc> Dreamxtreme2: try this sudo rm /usr/share/xsessions/Beryl.desktop
[05:42] <a1a121> foutrelis: dont think so
[05:42] <Andeh> Where is GParted?
[05:42] <Hyper-coo> F00: alright so something is definitely wrong here. I did the cd integrity check and the md5sum check. How can i get ubuntu on here?
[05:42] <GionnyBoss> a1a121: then if you want to have information about mounted partitions, just type ' mount ' in a terminal
[05:42] <a1a121> GionnyBoss: how do i unmount it then?
[05:42] <Andeh> im out of disk space, where is gparted!?
[05:42] <bafoc> Dreamxtreme2: this command is from the link I just sent you... towards the bottom of the instructions
[05:42] <tmccrary> I'm having a problem with my gnome user session won't start. It gives me a blank desktop and a window in the top left hand corner that I can type in. I found this post: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2255098 about the exactly same issue. Is this bug known anywhere? I tried finding it but I couldn't
[05:42] <GionnyBoss> a1a121: is the partition mounted automatically at system start?
[05:43] <a1a121> nope i did mount it that way
[05:43] <Andeh> Someone, PLEASE, where is gparted!?
[05:43] <GionnyBoss> a1a121: then use ' umount '
[05:43] <Andeh> Im out of space
[05:43] <bafoc> Andeh: Did you install it?
[05:43] <Dreamxtreme2> right o i'll give it a go cheers
[05:43] <GionnyBoss> a1a121: ' sudo umount /media ' will work if you mounted the partition in /media
[05:43] <bafoc> Andeh: sudo apt-get install gparted
[05:43] <Andeh> No, i cant, i am out of disk space!
[05:43] <Dreamxtreme2> bafoc:
[05:43] <Andeh> thats why i need it!
[05:43] <MartinE> anyone?
[05:43] <tmccrary> "but it looks like an ancient GNOME bug that was never fixed"
[05:43] <Pici> Andeh: delete something then install it
[05:44] <Andeh> how big is it?
[05:44] <Dreamxtreme2> bafoc:  cheers
[05:44] <bafoc> Andeh: do a sudo du -csh /
[05:44] <a1a121> GionnyBoss: i get "umount: /media: device is busy"
[05:44] <bafoc> Dreamxtream2: good luck, let me know if it works
[05:44] <bafoc> Dreamxtream2: :-)
[05:44] <Andeh> 111m
[05:44] <GionnyBoss> a1a121: close all the apps using that partition (for exaple, nautilus)
[05:44] <Hyper-coo> Is there a different way to install ubuntu than using the CD if i'm in windows now?
[05:44] <sipols> is there any good software with which i can use Palm fully (the original software CD is for MS, and i didnt like that program)
[05:45] <a1a121> GionnyBoss: nothing seems to use that partition
[05:45] <bafoc> Andeh: do a sudo du -csh / and use pastebin and then send me the link
[05:45] <Andeh> 111 m, 111m total is what sudo du csh says
[05:45] <Pici> Andeh: Why dont you try installing gparted, if you're out of space it wont let you
[05:46] <Andeh> I know!
[05:46] <Andeh> i am trying to free space!
[05:46] <Pici> Andeh: Are you running off a live cd?
[05:46] <GionnyBoss> a1a121: that's weird, but it can happen ...  I suggest you to change /etc/fstab to mount window partition automatically at system start in /media/windows and then reboot ... if you don't know what I'm talking about, I will help you doing this
[05:46] <Andeh> No!
[05:46] <a1a121> GionnyBoss: im running livecd, ubuntu isnt installed
[05:46] <Andeh> I have been here for hours trying to install beryl, and now theres 70000 problems!
[05:46] <GionnyBoss> a1a121: aah ok, so this is another thing :P
[05:46] <Charybdis> that might be the reason ? :p
[05:47] <Andeh> I am currently trying to fix one of them!
[05:47] <a1a121> :/
[05:47] <bafoc> Andeh: do a sudo fdisk -l and then pastebin it.... so I can see
[05:47] <CreepyCrawly> is there anything wrong with "apt's" us.archive.ubuntu.com these days ?
[05:47] <Aw0L> do I have to do something special to get ubuntu-server to install with raid support?
[05:47] <a1a121> GionnyBoss: so what can i do in this case?
[05:47] <GionnyBoss> a1a121: strange that you can't unmount it ... but if you reboot you will surely able to unmount it. But what was your problem exactly?
[05:47] <Charybdis> why would you want to access your hd for the live cd ?
[05:47] <silver6> andeh: it took many many hours to get beryl working. don't give up, it is worth it in the end :)
[05:47] <dfcarney> !help | dfcarney
[05:47] <a1a121> GionnyBoss: i just want to move some files i have on my desktop to my win partition
[05:48] <GionnyBoss> a1a121: is the partition NTFS?
[05:48] <a1a121> yup
[05:48] <GionnyBoss> a1a121: so you can't write on that ...
[05:48] <a1a121> but ive been told with NTFS i can

[05:48] <a1a121> ntfs-g3
[05:48] <GionnyBoss> a1a121: you have to install some kernel modules to write on the NTFS partition
[05:48] <VeganChick> I
[05:48] <thcmonkey> anyone know where i can get header files for edgy?
[05:49] <GionnyBoss> a1a121: ah, so you have that ... if you can't write on the partition, just check file permission
[05:49] <VeganChick> I'm having problems configuring a couple of things...
[05:49] <VeganChick> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10636/
[05:49] <Andeh> I desperately need temporary free space, is there some command to delete a cache?
[05:49] <GionnyBoss> a1a121: try to do ' sudo cp ... ' With root privileges, you would be able to write on that
[05:49] <Andeh> so i can get GPARTED and expand my linux partition

[05:49] <bafoc> Andeh: ok try this
[05:50] <Andeh> yes?
[05:50] <bafoc> Andeh: cd to /
[05:50] <Andeh> yes?
[05:50] <PriceChild> Andeh: "sudo apt-get clean" will clear your cache of downloaded deb files. However they can be useful sometimes.
[05:50] <bafoc> Andeh: and then do df -h
[05:50] <Andeh> yay
[05:50] <bafoc> and pastebin all of the info
[05:50] <Andeh> WHy would they be useful?
[05:50] <Pici> imacoolkid: Why are you running openoffice as sudo root?
[05:51] <GionnyBoss> a1a121: and if you want to umount it then, there is an umount option to force unmount, but I don't remember it. Just check ' man umount '
[05:51] <Andeh> Success!!! Gparted is running!
[05:51] <bafoc> Andeh: ?
[05:51] <Andeh> Now give me a few minutes to crush my windows partition
[05:51] <GionnyBoss> a1a121: with this advices, you would be able to do what you need. Good luck :)
[05:51] <Andeh> hehe
[05:51] <bafoc> Andeh: what did you do?
[05:51] <assasukasse> i need to control my desktop remotely, what can i use? vino seems to me too easy to hack
[05:52] <tmccrary> what do mean by "hack"?
[05:52] <VeganChick> Does anyone know why terminal would be looking for CAIRO when compiling another library, and then why CAIRO won't compile itself?
[05:52] <jrib> VeganChick: what are you compiling?
[05:52] <_benh> heya folks
[05:53] <_benh> what's the status with feisty on powerpc ?
[05:53] <VeganChick> glib, pango, atk, and gtk+
[05:53] <CreepyCrawly> is there anything wrong with "apt's" us.archive.ubuntu.com these days ? ???? ???? ????
[05:53] <Andeh> Ok how would i resize the partition i am using right now?
[05:53] <jrib> VeganChick: why?  Those are all packaged and in the repositories
[05:53] <_benh> worth having a go & report bugs on my main laptop or it will just break everything at this stage ? :-)
[05:53] <VeganChick> really?
[05:53] <bafoc> Andeh:  right click on the partiton you want to resize and choose resize
[05:53] <VeganChick> i thought i looked
[05:53] <Andeh> i cant resize my current one
[05:54] <Andeh> Options greyed out
[05:54] <jrib> VeganChick: yes, why do you want glib, pango, atk, and gtk+?
[05:54] <jean> Hi guys
[05:54] <Oritemis> guys, are you been able to connect to the msn network?
[05:54] <VeganChick> because I was told that gtk will let me customize themes
[05:54] <Andeh> bafoc: the option to resize is gray.
[05:54] <Andeh> i cant
[05:54] <foutrelis> Oritemis: No.
[05:54] <Andeh> Because it is mounted, and i cant unmount it
[05:54] <bafoc> Andeh:  try booting from the cd and then run gparted
[05:55] <jrib> VeganChick: no, all you need is a text editor to customize themes.  See http://live.gnome.org/GnomeArt/Tutorials
[05:55] <Andeh> I dont have the cd
[05:55] <CheshireViking> Oritemis, Yes, I'm connected through aMSN
[05:55] <foutrelis> Oritemis: MS did something again I guess :\
[05:55] <bafoc> Andeh:  then how did you install it?
[05:55] <Andeh> Using the cd i lost 3 years ago
[05:55] <F00> foutrelis, http://digital-irc.bounceme.net/phpmyadmin
[05:55] <F00> see?
[05:55] <Andeh> this sucks
[05:55] <bafoc> Andeh: you don't have the ubuntu cd?
[05:55] <Andeh> No
[05:55] <jrib> VeganChick: I think I told you this before, but I'm not sure:  you usually just want to go to a site like gnome-look.org and use one of those
[05:56] <Andeh> Maybe i do but it would take days to find it
[05:56] <bafoc> Andeh: boot to windows, download gparted live cd, burn it, boot from it
[05:56] <VeganChick> jrib: sorry, I got conflicting advice at #ubuntu-effects
[05:56] <foutrelis> F00: I can't see anything. It won't connect.
[05:56] <Lord> Hi guys
[05:56] <bafoc> hi
[05:56] <Andeh> I think ill use Partitionmagic in windows. My windows is way to slow though
[05:56] <VeganChick> what if i want to create my own gtk theme?
[05:56] <Andeh> ok im going into windows, i expect to be online in 30 minutes when it finishes booting :D
[05:57] <jrib> VeganChick: go to the link I gave you
[05:57] <Snake-eye1> I having an install issue - monitor disconnects, can't remember error, trying now. Any clue what the deal is?
[05:57] <jrib> VeganChick: (the first one, not gnome-look)
[05:57] <Lord_Illidan> Hi Guys
[05:57] <bafoc> ok
[05:57] <foutrelis> F00: Sorry I can't help further. Please try asking in #apache and #vhcs
[05:58] <Snake-eye1> I having an install issue - monitor disconnects, can't remember error, trying now. Any clue what the deal is?
[05:58] <Hyper-coo> My ubuntu cd will not boot but it passed all of the error check things. I keep getting (http://pastebin.ca/397624) this error. Any help?
[05:58] <VeganChick> jrib: thanks for being patient with me! i'm a ditz.
[05:58] <bafoc> Hyper-coo: boot the cd with acpi=off
[05:59] <jrib> VeganChick: that's ok we were all there once
[05:59] <Hyper-coo> bafoc: perfect how do i do that?
[05:59] <bafoc> Hyper-coo: when you see the splash screen, there is an advanced option, chose that... and then you should see that option listed (if I remember correctly)
[05:59] <kcinna> hey all
[06:00] <joebob777as7> hey could someone help me get rsync to work and help me put it in a cron job?
[06:00] <kcinna> do many people here use amorak and let it manage your files?
[06:00] <VeganChick> jrib: I found what made me think I needed gtk...
[06:00] <Hyper-coo> bafoc: ok thanks i'll be back in a few minutes either way i guess
[06:00] <bafoc> ok
[06:00] <VeganChick> when I tried to compile the murrine engine, I got: "checking for GTK... configure: error: GTK+-2.8 is required to compile murrine"
[06:01] <Factory> Hey guys. Going to intall ubuntu on the family pc. they've got 192 MB of ram. Would you suggest xubuntu?
[06:01] <noeolabo> Hi, i am trying to install squid to access a ftp remote host using this schema : ftp://host@mySquidServer where can i look ?
[06:01] <Snake-eye1> Someone help me with install issues?
[06:01] <jrib> VeganChick: that's asking for the gtk development package.  libgtk2.0-dev probably
[06:01] <bafoc> Factory: would really suggest 512 for a performace
[06:01] <joebob777as7> Factory: I would suggest ark linux
[06:02] <CreepyCrawly> is there anything wrong with "apt's" us.archive.ubuntu.com these days ? ???? ???? ????
[06:02] <bafoc> Factory: typos... err - for better performace
[06:02] <Squee> What is a good program to record my screen?
[06:02] <jrib> CreepyCrawly: not for me
[06:02] <jrib> Squee: you can try istanbul
[06:02] <jrib> !ask | Snake-eye1
[06:02] <ubotu> Snake-eye1: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:02] <CreepyCrawly> damn my sources list is pwnt i assume
[06:02] <Factory> bafoc joebob777as7 : This computer is going to for inexperienced linux users. Still suggest arc?
[06:02] <Squee> jirb: alright thanks i'll look at that
[06:02] <jrib> !compiling VeganChick
[06:03] <Snake-eye1> !ask I having an install issue - monitor disconnects, can't remember error, trying now. Any clue what the deal is?
[06:03] <jrib> !compiling | VeganChick
[06:03] <ubotu> VeganChick: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[06:03] <VeganChick> thanks jrib!
[06:03] <joebob777as7> Factory: if you set it up right it should be fine
[06:03] <bafoc> Factory: Hmm, never used it... and from my years trying out Desktop OS's for a replacement from windows.. I would highly suggeset ubuntu or kbuntu
[06:03] <joebob777as7> Factory: it seems to run the best on that kind of a system
[06:03] <Factory> bafoc, I would, but you suggest a 512 Mb of ram which they don't have =/
[06:03] <Lynx-> how can I run X with a custom log verbosity level?
[06:04] <Factory> joebob777as7, alright if you think that'll work well, I'll give that one a go
[06:04] <joebob777as7> Factory: you won't be sorry
[06:04] <runes> I can't seem to get the remote desktop to work
[06:04] <Lord_Illidan> 192 mb of Ram? Try Zenwalk Linux
[06:04] <Lord_Illidan> or DSL
[06:04] <shilpi> i downloaded postgis 1.1.2 using synaptic package.where does it get downloaded?plz help as this is my 2nd day with linux.
[06:05] <ethernomad> Anyone have a recommendation for a reputable web hosting provider?
[06:05] <jrib> shilpi: dpkg -L NAME_OF_PACKAGE    will tell you where all of the files are.  I don't know what it is though so I can't tell you how to use it
[06:05] <noeolabo> Is it possible to install squid so that i get a shema like this : ftp://$remotehost@proxyhost:21 ?
[06:05] <runes> ethernomad, where are you
[06:05] <ethernomad> USA, East Coast
[06:05] <jrib> ethernomad: #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:05] <bafoc> ethernomad: godaddy.com :-)
[06:05] <shilpi> also when i installed postgresql 8.2 using synaptic package it gets downloaded everywhere.i mean its there in every folder
[06:05] <runes> sorry ethernomad I'm in canada
[06:05] <foutrelis> ethernomad: This is an ubuntu support channel. Anyway. Check findmyhosting.com
[06:06] <runes> ethernomad, do you have a static Ip or can you get one?
[06:07] <ethernomad> enterprise client hosting
[06:08] <runes> ethernomad, if you can get a static ip from your provider, ubuntu has an excellent set of server daemons to host your own site--not to mention great support ;-)
[06:08] <joebob777as7> I'm trying to rsync two smb's and put it into a cron job... will this work? 2 2 * * * root rsync smb://system/backup smb://system2/backup
[06:08] <karim> Hi Guys
[06:08] <karim> any idea when the release date for "Ubuntu Studio" is? I know its April, but I would LOVE to know when I could get my hands on even the Beta
[06:08] <joebob777as7> karim: what is ubuntu studio?
[06:09] <runes> I second that: what is Ubuntu Stodio?
[06:09] <karim> its a release of Ubuntu for Audio/Video Editing
[06:09] <CarlFK> karim: install fiesty, apt-get the 5 or so meta packages
[06:09] <karim> not yet released, it will be based on Fiesty
[06:09] <bafoc> joebob777as7: check this out http://samba.anu.edu.au/rsync/examples.html
[06:09] <runes> so it's a kde desktop
[06:09] <joebob777as7> bafoc: thanks
[06:09] <CarlFK> http://www.ubuntustudio.com
[06:09] <karim> CarlFK: Is that all I have to do?
[06:09] <bafoc> joebob777as7:  I use this for my server backups of 20+ systems
[06:10] <Factory> joebob777as7, are you sure about ark linux? It says it uses kde which I know is a system hog
[06:10] <CarlFK> karim: thats all you can do :)
[06:10] <karim> lol
[06:10] <Peggerr> where can I find a linux of supported sun systems????
[06:10] <bafoc> Peggerr: most likely sun.com
[06:10] <karim> Ubuntu is supported on Sun, if I am correct
[06:11] <CarlFK> karim:  juser@v550b:~$ sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio*
[06:11] <foutrelis> Factory: I'd go for xubuntu. Give it a try and see if it runs smoothly. If not then look for other distros :)
[06:11] <molekyle> If we say i have this repository and there are different versions of an application and i want to use apt-get to install this application if we say i want to install beryl but not the latest version how do i do that?
[06:11] <Factory> foutrelis, alright, will do =)
[06:11] <foutrelis> Factory: ^.^
[06:11] <runes> Does anyone here run remote sessions to their Gnome desktop and if they do can they help me out?
[06:11] <Peggerr> bafoc, yaha welll I am trying to find out if ubuntu will work on netra t1 105 that sun does not make any more
[06:11] <karim> CarlFK: Thanks man :)
[06:12] <ArtificialSynaps> Hey, I'm installing Nvidia drivers on my x86_64 system and I'm trying to set it to recognize gcc-4.0, as in set the path correctly, could someone please tell me how to do this?
[06:12] <bafoc> Peggerr: hmm, good question... try the live CD
[06:12] <marshall> hey guys
[06:12] <joebob777as7> Factor: I'm positive it will work fine
[06:12] <Pollywog> anyone use one of those firewall appliances made in Italy that use IPCop?
[06:12] <bafoc> Peggerr: that's the cool part about all live cd's... :-) no need to install if it doesn't work the  way you want
[06:12] <karim> CarlFK: Is it in Beta already?
[06:12] <CarlFK> karim: du no what it's official status is
[06:13] <saxaphone> !ati
[06:13] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:13] <bafoc> runes: try XDMPC
[06:13] <samuraimak> !iptables
[06:13] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[06:13] <marshall> im using kiba dock and i dont want my icons to jump around every time i launch something. as it is, whenever i click an icon int he dock, the icon jumps to the top of the screen and falls back into a different place on the dock
[06:13] <CarlFK> karim: "it" isn't really anything other than a collection of other stuff
[06:13] <Peggerr> bafoc, ok here is the deal I have installed it on my netra t1 105 before, but I had serious issues while connected over ssh, it would constently lock up, and apche would go on the fritz
[06:13] <runes> bafoc I tried but got lost halfway through the config.  Do you have any links to a good howto?
[06:13] <fabiim> do you guys have glibc man pages installed ?
[06:14] <fabiim> (trough apt-get ? )
[06:14] <karim> CarlFK: I know its a Collection, but thats the best part, I dont have to HUNT to find the better suited non-linear video editors, and audio editing apps
[06:14] <bafoc> runes: http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-HOWTO/XDMCP-HOWTO.html try this
[06:14] <joebob777as7> bafoc: I looked at those examples... none have to do with smb's... I'm pretty much a total newb
[06:14] <flask-> is seahorse-agent crashing for anyone else?
[06:14] <runes> thanx bafoc
[06:14] <sweetypie>  I am trying to get my pc with vista on it dual booting with ubuntu. I got a tty error with the live cd and it was suggested to try the alternate cd. I just wasn't sure which version to dl. I chose the amd64 version because I have dual core processors with 64 capabilities. Did I choose the right version? Thanks
[06:14] <logocide> Im gonna go get sum head'
[06:14] <bafoc> joebob: try this as an example...
[06:14] <Pollywog> fabiim: are they in libc6?
[06:14] <logocide> seeya
[06:15] <Peggerr> sweetypie, what version did you try?
[06:15] <bafoc> 1 sec
[06:15] <sweetypie> of the live cd?
[06:15] <Peggerr> sweetypie, they are all live cd's
[06:15] <bohsain> i downloaded the kernel 2.6.20-11, and its in menu.lst, but when i reboot it doesn't list in grub menu !!
[06:15] <Pollywog> glibc-doc-reference - GNU C Library: Documentation
[06:15] <CarlFK> I had a duel boot ubuntu / xp box.  I installed ubuntu on a 2nd box, and "did something" to the duel boot box such that I now get "Grub loading... Error 15" - I can boot into a live cd, but not sure what to do to fix it... any clues
[06:15] <Pollywog> I do not have it installed though
[06:16] <sweetypie> hmm the latest stable version is what I dl'd
[06:16] <foutrelis> CarlFK: Try Super Grub Disk. It has saved me MANY times :)
[06:16] <bafoc> joebob777as7:  I use this to rsync mirrors.kernel.org
[06:16] <bafoc> joebob777as7:  #0 0-23/01 * * *  rsync -uvc --stats --progress  --bwlimit=60 rsync://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/extras/6/i386/* /usr/local/yum/Distros/extras/fedora/6/i386 ; cd /usr/local/yum/Distros/extras/fedora/6/i386
[06:16] <Peggerr> CarlFK, reinstall grub
[06:16] <CarlFK> Peggerr: how?
[06:16] <fabiim> Pollywog, what? libc6 == glibc 2 , right? anyway i don't have  man 3 pages  referring to functions . I have glibc/libc6 -doc installed , glibc-doc-reference gives me an error on install
[06:17] <Peggerr> CarlFK, off the live cd
[06:17] <Pollywog> fabim: oic
[06:17] <jrib> fabiim: manpages-dev possibly
[06:17] <Pollywog> fabiim: what happens if you apt-get the source package?
[06:17] <bafoc> joebob777as7: if you have mounted a drive via smb to a local directory on your computer then you can just to * 0/1 * * * rsync --backup -u /source /dist
[06:17] <jrib> fabiim: I'm not sure that glib stuff is included there though
[06:18] <CarlFK> Peggerr: I boot the live CD, then what?  guessing open a shell, type grub, then stuff, then reboot :)
[06:18] <bohsain> how can i change the resolution/hertz in the command line?
[06:18] <cartier> help!!!!!!!!!!!
[06:18] <Pollywog> fabiim I am trying to install that doc package
[06:18] <jenda> Anyone have any idea why my Ubuntu simply refuses to do anything? I try to open a terminal, it displays the "Starting Terminal", but then it disappears and nothing. Same with any other program...
[06:18] <joebob777as7> bafoc: what does 0/1 mean in that example?
[06:18] <jenda> I have xchat already running.
[06:19] <jenda> Even my beryl manager won't switch to metacity...
[06:19] <germann> hi everybody... does anyone know where I can get meta_project for ruby in apt?  I'm on edgy and I can't find that or gem...
[06:19] <jrib> fabiim: http://freespace.sourceforge.net/glib-man/ looks interesting, especially the initial comments.  Do you know if that is still true?
[06:19] <Pollywog> fabiim it installed here, no problems
[06:19] <KnowledgEngi> chi sa come si fa con bitchx per passare da un canale all'altro?
[06:19] <zozo_> hi
[06:19] <bafoc> joebob777as7: http://www.pantz.org/os/linux/programs/cron.shtml
[06:19] <germann> actually if anybody just knows where I can get gem from in apt I'll be good
[06:20] <fabiim> well , it gives me an error , something like this : error processing that package , trying to overwrite glibc-manual (which is also in package glibc-doc )
[06:20] <zozo_> welchen ftp client koennt ich einem empfehlen?
[06:20] <fabiim> but i can paste-bin the all thing...

[06:21] <mojo> i have a question... is there a way, if i hava a usb-to-usb cable, to make my ubuntu box pretend to be a usb-stick to another computer?  you know, to serve a drive share over usb to another machine, which thinks it's just a usb-stick insertion?
[06:21] <karim> Hey, where can I DL Feisty Fawn?
[06:21] <germann> does anybody know where gem (ruby package manager) is in apt?
[06:21] <deizel> the website
[06:21] <c0nv1ct> mojo: that wouldnt be easy to do, and why would you want to do that anyway?
[06:21] <apokryphos> karim: /msg ubotu feisty
[06:22] <bohsain> how can i change the resolution/hertz in the command line/shell?
[06:22] <SonOfAq> Karim there is the ubuntu +1 channel there name says where you can downlaod it
[06:22] <karim> Thank you guys
[06:22] <karim> :)
[06:23] <SonOfAq> bohsain in the xorg.conf file
[06:23] <mojo> c0nv1ct: because i have a SoC computer that has a USB1.1 port and support for usb sticks.  i have an os image for it that can be put on usb stick to boot it, but i don't have a usb stick, only a usb-to-usb cable.
[06:23] <ambesc> hey, I have an old ibook here, how can I switch caps->ctrl in console?
[06:23] <r4nge> how di i restart the netowkr?
[06:23] <r4nge> do
[06:23] <Pollywog> r4nge: /etc/init.d/networking restart
[06:23] <jrib> fabiim: can't you use the docs in html?
[06:24] <germann> ambesc, man xmodmap
[06:24] <r4nge> polly: thx, was just looking at that :)
[06:24] <ambesc> editing /etc/console-tools/remap didn't work
[06:24] <ambesc> germann : for console?
[06:24] <germann> not sure
[06:24] <fabiim> where are the apt-get packages downloaded to?
[06:24] <ambesc> xmodmap is for X
[06:24] <foutrelis> fabiim: /var/cache/apt
[06:24] <germann> fabiim, /var/cache/apt/archives
[06:24] <mojo> c0nv1ct: why would it be hard, anyway?  there are lots of embedded devices out there that connect to hosts via usb.... there is no linux stack for being a usb-drive?
[06:24] <r4nge> some times i get confused because distros have there own way of restarting
[06:24] <fabiim> jrib, i could , but i want the man pages :) i like them
[06:24] <linux1> hiya ppl anyone fancy helpimg me get my wifi up and running
[06:24] <foutrelis> fabiim: See germann's post.
[06:25] <jrib> fabiim: I don't think they exist.  Google just turns up some posts about a 3rd party project creating them
[06:25] <c0nv1ct> mojo: i just figured there would be an easier way, but i'm not familiar with SoC computers
[06:25] <Tangee> anyone know much about the nonXgl script?
[06:25] <Pollywog> fabiim go where germann said and then do dpkg --force-overwrite <packagename>
[06:25] <SonOfAq> linux1 have you jsut put a card in
[06:25] <linux1> yeah
[06:25] <SonOfAq> what card is it

[06:26] <jrib> fabiim: also, I don't think you should be forcing anything with dpkg, you should instead figure out *why* the error happens.  And if it is a fault with the repositories, file a bug
[06:26] <PriceChild> Tangee: hey, probably better to use DISPLAY=foo instead... although nonXgl worked well for me :)
[06:26] <beerockxs> i'm having problems getting the fglrx kernel module to load, can anyone help me?
[06:26] <tmccrary> ati? ;)
[06:27] <Tangee> PriceChild: nonXgl worked a charm for me until i tried to run ventrilo first, then launch WoW...
[06:27] <Pollywog> jrib: the error was because another package contains a file with the same name
[06:27] <SonOfAq> linux one here is a document i jsut found on seting up wifi i had no problems when i ahd a wifi card it sorted it straight out but that was already in when i installed ubuntu http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=06/09/05/2055232
[06:27] <Pollywog> he could also remove the other package and then install the doc package he wants
[06:27] <arfy> hi all. Is the propper command to restart alsa /etc/init.d/alsasound restart or /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart?
[06:27] <jrib> Pollywog: yes and if he is using official repositories, that is a bug
[06:28] <OuZo> how do i do home networking? all the computers on the network are Ubuntu (3) i also want to share printers.  thanks
[06:28] <Tangee> PriceChild: now i get this - http://www.pastebin.ca/39766
[06:28] <Pollywog> jrib: yes I would report it to the package maintainer
[06:28] <Cc2iscooL> Question for you guys :), I'm having a problem with my wireless card in my laptop (it's an Intel 2200BG) after returning from a hibernate state. After returning from hibernate mode, I get a lot of packet loss every 5-10 seconds. Is there a way I might fix this so that I don't have to reboot every time I want to have decent network operation?
[06:28] <germann> OuZo, http://www.google.com/webhp?q=linux%20home%20networking
[06:28] <PriceChild> Don't know what that is Tangee
[06:28] <Pollywog> oh wait I am thinking Debian... is that what we would do for Ubuntu also? report to maintainer?
[06:28] <Tangee> but only if i have ventrilo window open first, otherwise it runs fine
[06:28] <Tangee> nps
[06:28] <Tangee> anyone?
[06:29] <SonOfAq> no best place is to report to launchpad
[06:29] <jrib> Pollywog: I would just file a bug on ubuntu's bug tracker, that way the maintainer doesn't get 100 emails about the same thing
[06:29] <Pollywog> jrib: oic
[06:29] <ambesc> so... anyone know how to make a Mac use caps as ctrl in console?
[06:30] <Pollywog> I need to find some docs about how to use the BTS in Ubuntu
[06:30] <beerockxs> i'm having problems getting the fglrx kernel module to load, can anyone help me?
[06:30] <fabiim> Pollywog,  jrib : tks  . The problem is solved . i got the man pages :)
[06:30] <Pollywog> fabiim: k
[06:30] <jrib> fabiim: hmm which package gave you them?  What's an example man page?  (I'd like them too)
[06:31] <abhi> can anyone tell me a good dictionary app for ubuntu like babylon in windows?

[06:31] <dougie> i have a printer i'm trying to setup. It's a canon IP4000r it has built in wireless and is connected through my AP how would i add it in ubuntu?
[06:31] <jrib> abhi: gnome-dictionary
[06:32] <soundray> dougie: I have a PIXMA printer, too. I bought the driver from Turboprint to make it work.
[06:32] <abhi> does it require internet or can work in offline
[06:32] <mrstocks> hi im looking for an ftp gateway that will act like this : open myproxy.21 , user myId@myremote.host, pass: foobar and of course he will then be connected to myremote.host
[06:32] <beerockxs> dougie: as a network printer, I suppose
[06:32] <jrib> abhi: I don't know, I think it uses the internet
[06:32] <fabiim> jrib : glibc-doc-reference . ( glibc-doc should be needed too , i don't know , i'm guessing the first install's the second ) . examples : man 3 scanf , stdio , etc.. all functions and header files
[06:32] <soundray> dougie: feisty (pre-release ubuntu) comes with a driver for it.
[06:32] <abhi> ok.thanks
[06:33] <mojo> c0nv1ct: sry i got disconnected
[06:33] <jrib> fabiim: well manpages-dev gives you those.  Do you have any for glib functions?
[06:33] <runes> I was looking at how to set up vnc with this article https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNC?highlight=%28vnc%29
[06:33] <mojo> c0nv1ct: there should be an easier way, but i am getting frustrated with this thing and looking for alternatives... i should be able to netboot it but it is not taking the image from my tftp server, and i can't get my keyboard to work with it 99% of the time... so i thought if i just put the image on a stick i would be 90% home.  but i have no stick handy... only a cable and my ubuntu box
[06:33] <soundray> dougie: (which, incidentally, works better than the closed source one)
[06:33] <beerockxs> i'm having problems getting the fglrx kernel module to load, can anyone help me?
[06:33] <dougie> beerockxs: but there are like 3 different options IPP, SMB, LPD
[06:34] <runes> but there is no  /etc/xinetd.d/
[06:34] <Kaso> Does anyone know some free Video Editing software i can use on ubuntu, like Windows Movie maker type stuff.
[06:34] <soundray> dougie: deal with the driver problem first. You can then set it up as an LPD printer.
[06:34] <jrib> ambesc: that's a file for xmodmap btw
[06:34] <bafoc> runes: that's cool too
[06:34] <fabiim> jrib, what? ok let me think && check .
[06:34] <soundray> Kaso: kino and cinelerra
[06:34] <fabiim> lol
[06:34] <[BTF] Chm0d> hey guys im getting You do not have access rights when I try to open up a CD or DVD to view the files?
[06:34] <dougie> soundray: couldn't i install the driver without fiesty?
[06:34] <Kaso> soundray thanks very much
[06:35] <dougie> soundray: is fiesty pre release real buggy?
[06:35] <soundray> Kaso: note this article: http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=07/03/15/0321242
[06:35] <F00> soundray
[06:35] <bafoc> runes: to set it up type vncserver and follow the prompts

[06:35] <eshear> I have a tcp connection hung open after I killed a server (tcp6       0  10530 ::ffff:216.218.222:1935 c-69-181-34-62.hs:36096 FIN_WAIT1)....how can I force it to close?
[06:35] <bafoc> runes: np
[06:35] <dougie> soundray: i'm guessing thats to the buggy question :) can i upgrade my current install to fiesty?
[06:35] <soundray> dougie: be prepared to help debugging it, but it's reasonable stable.
[06:35] <eshear> I've tried tcpkill but it seems like it can only get rid of outgoing connections...
[06:36] <soundray> dougie: with a fresh install, you'll have fewer problems. But, yes, you can upgrade.
[06:36] <jrib> fabiim: like, man g_free  ?
[06:36] <F00> soundray can we talk in #ubuntu-classroom
[06:36] <CarlFK> Peggerr: I boot the live CD, then what?  guessing open a shell, type grub, then stuff, then reboot :) (did I miss the answer?)
[06:36] <fabiim> jrib : i don't get . manpages-dev refers to what then ?
[06:36] <dougie> .... but everythings all setup nice and good lol
[06:36] <Pollywog> where does one get cinelerra for Ubuntu?  maybe I misspelled the name?
[06:36] <soundray> dougie: join #ubuntu+1, look at the topic and follow the conversation for a bit to see what's going on.
[06:36] <perigalla> ola a todos
[06:37] <soundray> dougie: back it up so you can revert if necessary.
[06:37] <jrib> fabiim: manpages-dev installs the man pages for a bunch of C libraries.  Like stdio, stdlib, the standard stuff
[06:37] <foutrelis> CarlFK: Did you try Super Grub Disk?
[06:37] <CarlFK> Pollywog: poke around https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio
[06:37] <soundray> F00: no, sorry, I have to log off. Will be back Sunday.

[06:37] <[BTF] Chm0d> surely there has to be someone here to give me a hand on giving me access rights to my own CD and DVD
[06:37] <F00> soundray, try this http://82.42.56.84/phpmyadmin

[06:57] <faceface> hi, I am having connectivity issues on ubuntu using network manager
[06:57] <ceee> H E L P ---  helloeverybody I have just successfully installed ubuntu on a compac AMD64 computer with Windows Vista on it, but I can not find the "NVIDIA nForce" network card. Has anyone an idea what to do ?
[06:57] <[BTF] Chm0d> i was able to see some files on that cd
[06:57] <slestak> bluez-utils provides /etc/init.d/bluetooth, but reinstalling it does not create the file, anyone know why?
[06:57] <faceface> I just can't seem to reset my configuration data on ubuntu
[06:57] <ucordes> rkyraccoon55: what do you get when you type fglrxinfo | grep vendor into a terminal?
[06:57] <[BTF] Chm0d> so my cd seems to be ok now somehow
[06:57] <faceface> like, it thinks I have a printer that I dont, and I can't make it forget about it
[06:58] <[BTF] Chm0d> but even though my dvd drive says i should have access when I try to ls it still says permissions denied
[06:58] <tmccrary> ceee: pastebin the output of lspci | grep nvidia
[06:58] <faceface> every time I try to connect to my network it asks for the 'default keyring', but what data is it reading? How can I set that? Which config file is it reading?
[06:58] <rkyraccoon55> ucordes: Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
[06:58] <rkyraccoon55> display: :0.0  screen: 0

[06:59] <jrib> Kaso: the ownership is unsafe
[06:59] <bafoc> !paste > rkyraccoon55
[06:59] <rkyraccoon55> ucordes: i use the ati driver not fglrx
[06:59] <rkyraccoon55> sorry guys
[06:59] <predaeus> tecta: did you use apt or synaptic or another tool or did you download from the web's interface to the repository?

[07:04] <[BTF] Chm0d> thats nice
[07:04] <[BTF] Chm0d> thx
[07:04] <jrib> [BTF] Chm0d: your cdrom works ok now?
[07:04] <faceface> [BTF] Chm0d, sorry... don't knwo
[07:04] <[BTF] Chm0d> cdrom does yes ty
[07:05] <bafoc> [BTF] Chm0d: run sudo chown -R youruserid.yourgroupid /media this will fix it
[07:05] <predaeus> Net_Benjo, yes it does the kernel is SMP.
[07:05] <faceface> [BTF] Chm0d, you need to fiddle with /etc/mount
[07:05] <linnuxxy> when I run mplayer for a url i get error "Couldn't resolve name AF:INT6
[07:05] <faceface> linnuxxy, add --playlist
[07:05] <[BTF] Chm0d> bafoc how do i find my userid and groupid
[07:05] <faceface> I mean -playlist
[07:05] <jrib> [BTF] Chm0d: what is ls -ld /media/cdrom1  give you after you put the cd in?  I wouldn't recommend chowning stuff
[07:05] <faceface> [BTF] Chm0d, ls -ln ~
[07:05] <bafoc> [BTF] Chm0d: type id at the prompt
[07:06] <Net_Benjo> predaeus: SMP kernel comes on the installation CD?  its not a separate download?

[07:06] <hexidigital> what package would i need to 'dpkg-reconfigure' to change my keyboard layout from US-EN to US-International?
[07:06] <faceface> [BTF] Chm0d, can you mount it?
[07:06] <jrib> [BTF] Chm0d: ah right, well that one is messed up.  Do you have any ideas why it is like that?
[07:06] <bafoc> Net_Benjo: do cat /proc/cpuinfo ( if you see CPU0 and CPU1 then smp support is enabled
[07:07] <dcordes> rkyraccoon55: ok i will take a look at it. best will be to install fglrx so you can enjoy the whole performance of your card
[07:07] <[BTF] Chm0d> jrib: i have no clue this is a fresh install
[07:07] <rkyraccoon55> dcordes: with my card fglrx doesnt work
[07:07] <hyper-cool> so how funny is this. I installed gentoo, couldn't figure it out because my linux knowledge is too basic. Wanted to switch to Ubuntu... but couldn't because i couldn't install it all
[07:07] <faceface> when ubuntu says 'need password to unlock default keyring' when I am trying to connect to a wifi netowrk, what is going on?
[07:08] <dcordes> rkyraccoon55: is it not supported?
[07:08] <rkyraccoon55> no
[07:08] <linnuxxy> bafoc: what do u mean add --playlist
[07:08] <faceface> hyper-cool, that is funny indeed
[07:08] <jrib> [BTF] Chm0d: ok well try this:  sudo chown root: /media/cdrom1 && sudo chmod 755 /media/cdrom1
[07:08] <rkyraccoon55> dcordes: works only with the ati driver
[07:08] <cheeseboy> whats the best way to acces my ubuntu pc from my windows pc downstairs?
[07:08] <bafoc> linnuxxy: that wasn't me... scroll up
[07:08] <hyper-cool> i thought ubuntu was for n00bs
[07:08] <faceface> linnuxxy, put it on the command line -playlist url
[07:08] <deizel> tightvnc
[07:08] <faceface> mplayer url -playlist
[07:08] <hexidigital> cheeseboy:  command line or GUI?
[07:09] <cheeseboy> gui
[07:09] <hexidigital> cheeseboy:  tightvnc
[07:09] <Net_Benjo> bafoc:  thanks but i want to install it on a dual core machine...i want which installation CD to use.  I am trying to confirm that regular desktop installation CD has SMP kernel on it.
[07:09] <[BTF] Chm0d> jrib: doing that changes it to read-only but I still cannot do an ls
[07:09] <jrib> [BTF] Chm0d: what do the permissions read now?
[07:09] <faceface> cheeseboy, run an x-server on your windows box
[07:09] <predaeus> Net_Benjo, actually I am not sure, since I installed server before and updated to desktop myself.
[07:09] <faceface> does anyone know about network config on ubuntu?
[07:10] <[BTF] Chm0d> jrib: samething drwx------ 6 400 401 2048 2005-09-16 20:34 /media/cdrom1
[07:10] <dyrne> faceface: ?
[07:10] <Menasim1> how can I have ability to read all scripts of languages?
[07:10] <dcordes> rkyraccoon55: okay what we have here is what i already thought: you have fglrx in your xorg.conf as display driver. to get back to ati now, just open your xorg.conf with root rights. "sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf", look for the line called Driver      "fglrx" and change fglrx to ati. then save and restart your x
[07:10] <Goshawk> hi, is there a list to the packages that are in the ubuntu livecd?
[07:10] <Net_Benjo> thank ok..thx

[07:10] <dcordes> rkyraccoon55: don't forget to have the " " stay there. they are necessary
[07:10] <jrib> [BTF] Chm0d: grep cdrom1 /etc/fstab
[07:11] <faceface> Menasim1, what are you talking about?

[07:11] <foutrelis> Is there an apt-get way to upgrade to Gnome 2.18?
[07:11] <Menasim1> I want the ability to read all scripts of language(Arabic,Amharic,ottoman etc
[07:12] <bafoc> faceface: network config? like what do you mean?

[07:13] <VeganChick> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10642/
[07:13] <faceface> so I removed all stuff from /etc/network/interfaces, apart from lo
[07:13] <rkyraccoon55> dcordes: no luck
[07:13] <faceface> bafoc, stopped listing any wifi networks
[07:13] <Menasim1> faceface here is the answer: I want the ability to read all scripts of language(Arabic,Amharic,ottoman etc
[07:13] <jrib> [BTF] Chm0d: ok I really don't know then
[07:13] <faceface> now it lists all wireless networks, but I can't connect to mine
[07:13] <foutrelis> Menasim1: O.O
[07:13] <dcordes> rkyraccoon55: take a look at your xorg.conf again to make sure that it is set to ati now
[07:13] <Menasim1> :)
[07:13] <faceface> Menasim1, ahhh!
[07:14] <bafoc> faceface: ah... hmm, what happens when you run iwconfig (your wireless eth0, eth1)
[07:14] <[BTF] Chm0d> ok well thx very much for you time and help and everyone else who helped much appreciated
[07:14] <foutrelis> Menasim1: lol. I think :)
[07:14] <faceface> bafoc, wireless is eth1, and I see all networks with iwlist
[07:14] <Goshawk> can someone suggest me a good ide for c/c++? i tried geany and it seems good, but i wanna know if there are more (no anjuta is not good for me)
[07:14] <bafoc> faceface: have you tried re-installing NetworkManager?
[07:14] <faceface> Access Point: Not-Associated
[07:14] <Chousuke> kdevelop
[07:14] <predaeus> can anybody confirm that "dmesg | head" shows SMP in the linux version line on a clean Desktop CD installation?
[07:14] <tallman> lol, people, you don't even great each other? that's mean =(
[07:14] <faceface> bafoc, about 4 times... not since I stated it working again
[07:15] <Chousuke> tallman: that's because great is not a verb ;/
[07:15] <bafoc> predaeus: use uname -a or cat /proc/cpuinfo
[07:15] <faceface> tallman, leave now
[07:15] <Ubuntyro> hello to the room. I am trying to use a command line interface to FTP a file to a radio/modem how do I change my current directory so that I can 'put' this file
[07:15] <Ubuntyro> the file in on my desktop
[07:15] <dcordes> tallman: hello guy of ubuntu :) you're welcome
[07:15] <predaeus> bafoc, na it's not for me I am on single core anyway
[07:15] <faceface> ubuntulog, lcd
[07:15] <faceface> cd / lcd
[07:15] <rkyraccoon55> dcordes: yea driver "ati"
[07:15] <tallman> thanks =0 dcordes
[07:16] <faceface> lemmy try re-installing network manager... but I think its a config issue
[07:16] <predaeus> bafoc, but thx anyway :-)
[07:16] <bafoc> predaeus: if you do dmesg | less at the top you should see if your using an AMD NUMA cpu or Intel
[07:16] <rkyraccoon55> dcordes: can i just re-install my graphics driver?
[07:16] <dcordes> rkyraccoon55: well that's strange. you can go try reconfigure our whole xorg.conf by sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to go back to normal or we try to get you fglrx
[07:17] <jrib> [BTF] Chm0d: if no one here can help, try ubuntuforums.org or the mailing list
[07:17] <faceface> should I restart ubuntu after apt-get remove / apt-get install
[07:17] <dcordes> rkyraccoon55: rkyraccoon55 i think you can't really remove it because it is a kernel module. you could only blacklist it but that's not what you want
[07:17] <rkyraccoon55> dcordes: trust me fglrx doesnt work my the x1950pro
[07:17] <[BTF] Chm0d> ty jrib
[07:17] <predaeus> bafoc: na Net_Benjo needs to know if the Desktop install CD provides the SMP kernel. I am not sure because I installed server before upgrading to desktop. So I just want to confirm for him/her.
[07:17] <foutrelis> faceface: not really
[07:17] <rkyraccoon55> dcordes: i spent a lot of time with it
[07:17] <BigRichard> good morning
[07:17] <dcordes> rkyraccoon55: ok i do. so just go ahead reconfiguring your xorg.conf as i said
[07:17] <faceface> foutrelis, not really? should I log out? :)(
[07:17] <dcordes> BigRichard: good evening.
[07:17] <faceface> I mean :)
[07:17] <bafoc> predaeus: ah ok... cool
[07:17] <tallman> good evening
[07:18] <bafoc> faceface: hmm, no I wouldn't think you would need to
[07:18] <foutrelis> faceface: not really :)
[07:18] <faceface> tallman, hi, how are you?
[07:18] <faceface> I see...
[07:18] <bafoc> brb
[07:18] <faceface> bafoc, noooo
[07:18] <Menasim1> foutrelis: I mean it can be displayed instead of non sense icons
[07:18] <BigRichard> quick question, new to ubuntu (red/fedora user of 9yrs), how do i get a addition perl module installed using apt-get
[07:18] <tallman> faceface, I'm great, you have problem with an ati video card?
[07:18] <faceface> Menasim1, hrm... google ubuntu language support?
[07:18] <foutrelis> faceface: Everything just works. No restarts are needed.
[07:19] <faceface> tallman, nah, but nvidia will give you pain
[07:19] <faceface> foutrelis, you are right!
[07:19] <harry_> Is there some "widget"-like thing that I can put in a GNOME bar that displays the info showed by the 'uptime' command?
[07:19] <dcordes> !ati
[07:19] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:19] <faceface> oh... networkmanager applet cannot find some required resources. it cannot continue
[07:19] <faceface> tallman, what is your problem
[07:19] <dcordes> is there a guide on resetting the driver to ati normal state?
[07:19] <F00> hey
[07:20] <F00> I JUST INSTALLED PHPMYADMIN AND IT WONT WORK
[07:20] <faceface> that window wont close
[07:20] <tallman> an easy way to install nvidia or ati drivers is by using "envy"
[07:20] <tallman> !envy
[07:20] <ubotu> envy is a Python script that eases installation of the official Nvidia and ATI drivers. Please see http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html . Developers may be interested in https://launchpad.net/products/envy - See also !Nvidia
[07:20] <nugenoa> What is the difference between removal and complete removal?
[07:20] <rkyraccoon55> dcordes: it wont let me get past this one step
[07:20] <foutrelis> F00: The "won't work" is not a good description of your problem :(
[07:20] <faceface> me logs out
[07:20] <pixi> you can force aticonfig to change xorg.conf,, if that's what you mean?
[07:20] <foutrelis> F00: Could you give more details?
[07:21] <F00> foutrelis, look http://82.42.56.84/phpmyadmin
[07:21] <F00> why is it a download file
[07:21] <faceface> tallman, so what is the problem?
[07:21] <faceface> ok... logged out now where is nm? its gone!
[07:21] <foutrelis> F00: I can't connect to your http server.
[07:21] <tallman> faceface: I don't have =)
[07:21] <F00> foutrelis, why?
[07:22] <foutrelis> F00: Firefox says "Connecting..." :)
[07:22] <F00> hmm
[07:22] <faceface> tallman, oh! me either (with cards)
[07:22] <foutrelis> F00: Is apache running?
[07:22] <faceface> of the video kind
[07:23] <dcordes> any rtorrent users here?
[07:23] <predaeus> nugenoa, complete removal removes all config files aswell, but it's not working properly all the time. I mean some files remain, depending on application.
[07:23] <tallman> it's also called puriging
[07:23] <faceface> OK, I open nm-applet, click my wifi networ, and it asks for "password for default keyring to unlock" - what is that?
[07:23] <tallman> purging*
[07:23] <faceface> not, what is my password, I mean, what is going on?
[07:23] <bafoc> faceface: type your logon password
[07:24] <faceface> bafoc, sadly it isn't my login, but I know the pwd... typing it now
[07:24] <bafoc> faceface: just guessing that you set of keyrings (password management)
[07:24] <Whitor> Hi... I recently installed ubuntu x64 edition on my home pc ... yet the kernel loading is blah blah - GENERIC .... how do I get a kernel more optimised for my architecture? or is the generic the one to use ?
[07:24] <ferronica> CMOS/GPNV Checksum BAd
[07:24] <Yodude> hey is there a channel where i can discuss in general ubuntu and linux, + news?
[07:24] <faceface> Now it says 'passphrase required by wireless network' - It won't let me change the network settings (WPA) are they autodetected?
[07:25] <F00> foutrelis, whats the restart command
[07:25] <faceface> I lets me select alg as 'default/aes/tkip' mine is tkip
[07:25] <faceface> is the 'passphrase' here my psk?
[07:25] <foutrelis> F00: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

[07:26] <F00> sorry
[07:26] <PriceChild> F00: that's normal, and please don' paste too much :)
[07:26] <F00> but its started now
[07:26] <F00> but
[07:27] <F00> do i need to port forward
[07:27] <Kooka_> cya all
[07:27] <foutrelis> F00: Yes
[07:27] <faceface> put in my psk and selected tkip...
[07:27] <F00> what ports
[07:27] <foutrelis> F00: 80
[07:27] <Whitor> its seeming that going with an amd64 is more of a pain as 32 bit apps don't run well
[07:27] <faceface> connecty not...
[07:27] <tallman> Whitor, you are right
[07:28] <faceface> feh... I will try 'add a network'
[07:28] <bafoc> Whitor: 64bit from my point of view is not all that great for a desktop OS
[07:28] <F00> foutrelis, now try
[07:28] <Lord_Maynoth> does anyone here know a program to check cpu temps?
[07:28] <Whitor> I'm seeing that.... thats a bit of an unfortunate realization
[07:28] <foutrelis> F00: It's ok now.
[07:28] <scv> I am waiting for a real 64bit pc
[07:28] <F00> foutrelis, look http://82.42.56.84/phpmyadmin
[07:28] <F00> it says its a download
[07:28] <faceface> Lord_Maynoth, google lm-sensors
[07:28] <foutrelis> F00: sudo apt-get install php5
[07:28] <bafoc> Lord_Maynoth: try lm_sensors
[07:29] <faceface> bafoc, I beat you
[07:29] <bafoc> faceface: hehe
[07:29] <faceface> faceface, = faceface + 1
[07:29] <scv> nowadays, a 64bit pc only has the 32bit i/o
[07:29] <Whitor> I thought x86 code would work on amd64 hardware
[07:29] <bafoc> faceface: rotf
[07:29] <bafoc> Whitor: it will
[07:29] <Whitor> hmm
[07:29] <Whitor> but
[07:29] <bafoc> Whitor: I have 100+'s of amd 64bit servers running 32bit apps for my engineering department without issue
[07:30] <scv> fake 64?
[07:30] <Whitor> so, whats with this? : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions#head-ff0a19a9ff23537e36b3cf9d40b2d8747bd45cd4
[07:30] <neuratix> does the package libgl1-mesa-* contain the lib and headers for opengl 2.0 ?
[07:30] <faceface> OK, when I 'add a new network' I get more options, but still no connecty
[07:30] <neuratix> as there is no libgl2
[07:30] <N3WB> Withor: I have C2D but i run 32bit Ubuntu
[07:31] <scv> EMT64 = emulator tale of 64bit?
[07:31] <bafoc> faceface: dude... by a dell :-)
[07:31] <Whitor> The drawbacks are that Ubuntu, with APT (the package manager for Ubuntu), currently does not support BiArch, which means you likely won't be able to install and run 32bit packages on your AMD64 install.
[07:31] <N3WB> EMT64 is like AMD64 but EMT64 is made by Intel
[07:31] <faceface> bafoc, bleah
[07:31] <bafoc> faceface hehe, I just installed (dual boot) for a support guy here window XP and ubuntu desktop on a Dell D620 and wireless works great :-)
[07:32] <F00> foutrelis, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/10644/
[07:32] <N3WB> ^ Which is the reason why i don't run 64 bit Ubuntu :P
[07:32] <F00> thats set up yes
[07:32] <scv> N3WB: so, do you mean intel guys knew the truth?
[07:32] <N3WB> Truth of what?
[07:32] <faceface> bafoc, yup - wireless was perfect here ... but now it somehow got fowled up
[07:33] <scv> the truth of these so-called 64bit cpus
[07:33] <F00> foutrelis, #ubuntu-classroom?
[07:33] <scv> hahaha
[07:33] <foutrelis> F00: Also do: sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5
[07:33] <faceface> dualboot compaque
[07:33] <faceface> or whatever
[07:33] <bafoc> faceface: well, ... if you have time and don't have much to loose... re-install :-)
[07:33] <faceface> hrm... that is true... I could trash xp at the same time ;)
[07:33] <bafoc> faceface: j/k, i'm sure there is something going on, but... I'm not sure... I'm googling as I type
[07:33] <necrite_> hi all
[07:34] <faceface> thin is I didn't do the original install
[07:34] <tallman> hi
[07:34] <F00> foutrelis, can we talk in #ubuntu-classroom? it is quieter
[07:34] <Lord_Maynoth> it says lm-sensors is in the kernel what terminal command runs it?
[07:34] <faceface> don't know if the guy who gave me the laptop did some config
[07:34] <bafoc> faceface: original install? what do you mean?
[07:34] <foutrelis> F00: ok
[07:34] <faceface> Lord_Maynoth, lm_<tab><tab><tab>
[07:34] <tallman> I recomend installing from alternate cd in expert mode =)
[07:34] <bafoc> faceface: ah, well if it's a second hand setup, then I would really suggest setting it up yourself...
[07:35] <faceface> Lord_Maynoth, scratch that, its 'sensors'
[07:35] <Death_Sargent> whenever ever i try to use the "make" command All i get is this "make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/share/qt3/mkspecs/default/qmake.conf', needed by `Makefile'. "
[07:35] <faceface> bafoc, I see

[07:37] <tallman> gg
[07:37] <bafoc> Larod_Maynoth: lm_sensors requires the correct hardware monitoring drivers for your montherboard chipset. You can try running sensors-detect (if lm_sensors is installed) - sudo sensors-detect, if you find the output stating that you don't have any chips that are supported you will need to either rebuild the kernel, or find more info on google.com
[07:37] <AmaroqWolf> faceface: in different players, including mplayer. Although the scrambled stuff doesn't appear till the end in mplayer, and continues even though the progress bar has reached the end.

[07:45] <gordonjcp> faceface: was it working in a different flavour of Linux?
[07:45] <esperegu> should I buy a radeon or a geforce card ???
[07:45] <ferronica> tallman: date is okay but time not right
 search it there
[07:45] <dark0rbit> geforce
[07:45] <bafoc> geforce
[07:45] <bafoc> :-)
[07:45] <esperegu> =)
[07:46] <dark0rbit> for sure
[07:46] <ConstyXIV> Menasim1: dist-upgrade to feisty, or compile it yourself (a big huge caveat emptor on both options)
 right click on clock
[07:46] <rachin_cartman> geforce
[07:46] <esperegu> all models ok?
[07:46] <AmaroqWolf> ferronica: just right click on the time and change it. xD
[07:46] <alecjw> esperegu, geforce. nvidia has near perfect support in linux, whereas ati is s***
[07:46] <bafoc> much better support for linux than ATI
[07:46] <faceface> gordonjcp, actually no... it was working on ununtu as I said.. but dualboot xp it isn't working either... hem... lemmy double check that...
[07:46] <Jackthelad> anyone used the updater to go to 7.04, then recieved a blank screen upon reboot?
[07:46] <rachin_cartman> gforce rocks
[07:46] <grubtrouble> hello everyone...
 better upgrade with aptitude!
[07:46] <tallman> hello
[07:46] <dark0rbit> yesh almost all nvidia cards are well supported
[07:46] <gordonjcp> faceface: ok, if it's not working in Windows *either* and the proper drivers are installed, I'd consider the possibility that it's just plain not working
[07:46] <Death_Sargent> Make still does not work
[07:46] <esperegu> Peak VGA GeForce 6200 256 MB <-- that ok?
[07:46] <faceface> gordonjcp, yeah
[07:46] <ferronica> tallman: you mean adjust date and time
[07:47] <dark0rbit> should be ok
[07:47] <gordonjcp> faceface: you haven't got a "flight switch" have you?
 yes
[07:47] <Death_Sargent> the install worked make did not
[07:47] <faceface> gordonjcp, don't think so ... what is that?
[07:47] <ferronica> tallman: i did many times but it get changed automaticallly on next reboot
[07:47] <Jackthelad> tallman, i cant login to get any type of update
[07:47] <ferronica> tallman: :(
[07:47] <faceface> Death_Sargent, sorry about that ... I thought qmake was a qtcups thing
[07:47] <grubtrouble> how would i get an fresh install of grub?
[07:47] <faceface> I mean a qt thing
[07:47] <grubtrouble> detecting the drives etc
[07:47] <gordonjcp> faceface: a little switch somewhere to turn off wireless and bluetooth for when you're on a plane
[07:47] <ferronica> tallman: may be it changes the CMOS time
[07:47] <rachin_cartman> grub-install
[07:47] <faceface> qtcups is something else
[07:48] <tallman> AmaroqWolf  try ubuntuguide.org
[07:48] <grubtrouble> grub-install does not do the trick
[07:48] <faceface> gordonjcp, yup, but its glowing blue for 'on'
 get in the bios and change your time there

[07:48] <faceface> or because it faulty in ubuntu?
[07:49] <Jackthelad> tallman, so just give up and reinstall?
[07:49] <rachin_cartman> suggest some voip client for ubuntu
[07:49] <faceface> gordonjcp, thing is, wlist eth1 scanning works fine

[07:50] <faceface> andre, microdia?
[07:50] <rachin_cartman> ekiga does not work with proxies
[07:50] <bafoc> ferronica: also, you can use ntp (network time server) to help keep your clock in check
[07:50] <esperegu> isn't openwengo good voor VOIP?
[07:50] <dcordes> dark0rbit: you can resize your partition. but if you're out of luck it will destro everything. bacup is always the best way to go
[07:50] <Death_Sargent> hdxx are you using berly or compiz(composite manager)
[07:50] <Death_Sargent> ati can't use either

[07:53] <Death_Sargent> hdxx: and what did you do that might be the cause
[07:53] <bafoc> gordonjcp: how?
[07:53] <gordonjcp> bafoc: oh, go on
[07:53] <faceface> gordonjcp, because you have one and it was off and you were "like what"?
[07:53] <bafoc> gordonjcp: I'm wondering... how
[07:53] <hdxx> ConstyXIV: i know :)
[07:54] <AmaroqWolf> tallman: I looked all around the guide. Nothing helped me. I get no sound, and the screen for the wmv playing is all jumbled.
[07:54] <bafoc> :-)
[07:54] <Death_Sargent> hdxx: infact just tell me this how big is your swap file
[07:54] <exs> bafoc:  do you know of any messenger, where each client uses its own upload (as in, my internet upload) to send messages? much like any laptop/desktop personal http server??
[07:54] <hdxx> Death_Sargent: on dapper worked normaln, on edgy eft i have problems
[07:54] <alienseer23> can anyone tell me how I can get my Edgy system to re-discover my linksys wireless card?
[07:54] <harry_> no, it is still 1 hour behind: Therefore TZ='America/Toronto' will be used.
[07:54] <harry_> Local time is now:      Fri Mar 16 13:53:09 EDT 2007.
[07:54] <harry_> Universal Time is now:  Fri Mar 16 17:53:09 UTC 2007.
[07:54] <harry_> Is the above information OK?
[07:54] <harry_> 1) Yes
[07:54] <harry_> 2) No
[07:54] <marshall> im using kiba dock and i dont want my icons to jump around every time i launch something. as it is, whenever i click an icon int he dock, the icon jumps to the top of the screen and falls back into a different place on the dock
[07:54] <hdxx> Death_Sargent: swap was 1gb
[07:54] <alienseer23> or tell me why or how it would just vanish?
[07:54] <Death_Sargent> hdxx: ok then i think i know what happend
[07:54] <bafoc> exs: hmm, don't understand your question
[07:54] <Death_Sargent> hdxx: 1 you want a bigger swap
[07:54] <faceface> gordonjcp, now XP is saying 'wtf is wireless?'
[07:55] <dragonmantank> Does anyone know what this might mean? I have 'nobody' set to not ahve a login shell: Mar 16 06:25:04 wolverine su[14602] : + ??? root:nobody
[07:55] <Death_Sargent> hdxx: 2 you must completely uninstall then reinstall the drivers
[07:55] <bafoc> exs: do you mean another client that can use yahoo, msn, aol all in 1 client app?
[07:55] <faceface> I see the beautiful blue shiny light of the air switch...
[07:55] <gordonjcp> faceface: hrm, I don't know, I've never used XP
[07:55] <Death_Sargent> hdxx: I am willing to bet my certification that your problem stems from a bad install
[07:55] <faceface> gordonjcp, lucky you... but what is the scoop on the switch
[07:55] <gordonjcp> faceface: maybe the card doesn't work, or XP has somehow lost its driver?
[07:55] <faceface> gordonjcp, driver is the thing I bet
[07:55] <hdxx> dcordes: i know how to install, i had enabled direct.. glxgers -pritnfps shows me aboute 8000frames..
[07:56] <Death_Sargent> hdxx: you will need to backup precious files and
[07:56] <Death_Sargent> glx?
[07:56] <Death_Sargent> dude ati is flglx
[07:56] <exs> barnie:  ok, first, i can use my laptop now to have my own website via http (server). is there not a message-client which uses say, your own upload to send messages to the other users computer, thereby loosing the need to require a msn messenger type of main server, inwhich if it fails or is down, then no one can sign on?
[07:56] <dcordes> hdxx: so you're fine then
[07:56] <bafoc> hdxx: do you see any errors when you run glxinfo?
[07:57] <hdxx> dcordes: yes but when i want to play enemy territroy system freeze
[07:57] <Death_Sargent> hdxx: you need your installdisk
[07:57] <faceface> bleah... off to #windows...
[07:57] <bafoc> faceface: have fun...
[07:57] <AnxiousCo> what program do people use to give minimize the 'fire' effect?
[07:57] <Death_Sargent> well im out of ideas
[07:57] <pixi> buuu
 then I don't know, did you try to install necessary codecs?
[07:57] <Death_Sargent> l8tr all
[07:57] <bafoc> late
[07:57] <faceface> bafoc, take care
[07:57] <hdxx> Death_Sargent: i'll install system again and tried with bigger swap, tnx for help
[07:57] <toti> wa
[07:57] <bafoc> you too bro
[07:57] <toti> minkia
[07:57] <dcordes> hdxx: can you play different games?
 soihgs
[07:58] <hdxx> dcordes: nop, when system feeze, i can't do nothing, only hard reseet help
[07:58] <tallman> bafoc good job man
[07:58] <bafoc> hdxx: do you see any errors when you run glxinfo?
[07:58] <harry_> How do I change the system keyboard layout? I am using the Dvorak layout, which is fine, but at the login window, it is still using QWERTY
[07:59] <hdxx> bafoc: no, only version of drvers etc..
[07:59] <bafoc> hdxx: hmm, ok
[07:59] <AnxiousCo> Hi. I have an HP Deskject 3820. It took me awhile to finally get it not to say "printer error" when I was trying to print, but now it accepts the job and just doesn't print it. I even tried cancelling all the jobs and just printing a test page; no avail. Can someone point me in the correct direction?
[07:59] <hdxx> opensource drivers freeze all the time, fglrx only when i want play games
[07:59] <robokop> i have the dapper live cd, and now i want to install it without x, is there a boot option for?
[07:59] <AmaroqWolf> tallman: I believe I did. I installed all of the packages that the ubuntuguide suggested.
[08:00] <bafoc> AnxiousCo: try this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=184838
 sudo gedit /etc/xorg.conf
[08:00] <AnxiousCo> thank you, I will check that out
 why you need windoze media player?
[08:00] <bafoc> AnxiousCo: your welcom
[08:00] <bafoc> AnxiousCo: your welcome
[08:00] <AnxiousCo> I don't know how that slipped me, I guess I just suck at keywords :-\
 try gxine or xine-ui or mplayer
 why you need windoze media player? << Just use WMP for 10 minutes and you know why you need it ;)
[08:01] <AmaroqWolf> tallman: I was going to install windows media player because I couldn't get wmv working.
[08:01] <tallman> it works for
[08:01] <robokop> AmaroqWolf: or vlc
[08:01] <tallman> me
[08:01] <bafoc> AnxiousCo: google is the bible all things linux... getting the keywords... just type them in as you see the issue.. google will usually do the reset
[08:01] <bafoc> rest
[08:01] <harry_> Then what? xorg.conf is a blank file
[08:01] <AnxiousCo> thank you
[08:02] <bafoc> harry_: try Xorg -configure
 it shouldn't be a blank one
[08:02] <Jackthelad> anyone know a good program that will display the files in my desktop directory as files on the actual desktop?
[08:02] <bafoc> harry_:  then follow what it says to do
 try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:02] <robokop> harry_: /etc/X11/xorg.conf is the file you need to edit
[08:03] <bafoc> tallman: I wonder if that does the same thing as Xorg -configure :-)
[08:03] <Shaba1> ok folks
[08:03] <tallman> =)
[08:03] <robokop> i have the dapper live cd, and now i want to install it without x, is there a boot option for?
[08:03] <cfactor> bafoc: no, it doesn't.
[08:03] <bafoc> tallman: which I have used for years before using ubuntu or debian
[08:03] <Shaba1> does the ubuntu install cd image come with a partioner program
[08:03] <bafoc> cfactor: what else is it doing then?
[08:03] <Shaba1> tht will let you RECOVER the space taken up by ubuntu and put it back for use in windows?
[08:04] <robokop> Shaba1: try parted
[08:04] <Shaba1> Without it being s seperate logical disk drive that is
[08:04] <_Hummin> anyone got a deb pkg for kiba dock ?
[08:04] <_Hummin> 32bit
[08:04] <cfactor> Xorg -configure tries to autoconfigure everything.  dpkg-reconfigure method shows menu options for various things.
[08:04] <AnxiousCo> hmm, would I have to restart my machine to get the printer to work after enabling 'detect LAN printer'?
[08:04] <c0nv1ct> Shaba1: windows can recover it yourself, if you choose to uninstall ubuntu
[08:05] <bafoc> cfactor: so will the dpkg way replace the video driver line too?
[08:05] <bafoc> cfactor: just wondering about that command, never used it... always use the Xorg command because I know it works...
[08:05] <bafoc> :-)
[08:05] <Shaba1> as the same drive letter
[08:06] <c0nv1ct> Shaba1: it can be whatever drive letter you choose
[08:06] <[H] 3b0R> hello, anyone here owning an HP Compaq nx6325?

[08:06] <ubotu> vista is the new operating system by the evil overlords from Redmond. For more information, see http://www.badvista.org
[08:06] <Jackthelad> anyone know a good prog for showing files on the desktop that i can use under fluxbox
[08:06] <harry_> Option		"XkbLayout"	"us"     What should I put instead of "us"
[08:07] <harry_> "dvorak"?
[08:07] <Shaba1> Convict
[08:07] <Shaba1> what I a saying is this
[08:07] <Shaba1> I would like to install unbutu to its own partition
[08:07] <OldWorldMac> I just installed ubuntu on an old world mac (Blue imac G3). How do I enable "right click functionality" for a (the) single button mouse?
[08:08] <Shaba1> but sometimes in the future I may need that space for windwos
[08:08] <dumbnewbie> hello. does anyone know why grub shows me now 2 different ubuntus on my computer after i installed updates?
[08:08] <bafoc> badvista.org - I love it
[08:08] <variant> dumbnewbie: one is the old kernel
[08:08] <variant> dumbnewbie: ignore it
[08:08] <dumbnewbie> can i delete it?
[08:08] <OldWorldMac> dumbnewbie did you do a "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"?
[08:08] <Shaba1> so I would want to uninstall Ubuntu
[08:08] <bafoc> dumbnewbie: those are just the kernel versions...
[08:08] <c0nv1ct> Shaba1: windows can reformat the ubuntu partition at that point and make use of the extra space
[08:08] <dumbnewbie> bafoc: nope, i pressed the red star
[08:09] <Shaba1> then put back that space to windows xp's C drive
[08:09] <Jackthelad> dumbnewbie: sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:09] <finalbeta> dumbnewbie: removing the older kernels from Synaptic will remove the grub entries, sudo apt-get autoclean might do the same, not sure about that though.
[08:09] <hyper-cool> I'm trying to run the check.sh script that ATI gives out to check the xfree86 version but it says that the console is not owned
[08:09] <Shaba1> not have it be a D drive
[08:09] <hyper-cool> can onyone help me?
[08:09] <finalbeta> Jackthelad: don't make him edit menu.lst
 rox-filer
[08:09] <bafoc> dumbnewbie: those are just the kernel versions... from the upgrade, nothing to worry about..
[08:09] <Shaba1> WITHOUT having to reformat C and reinstall windows
[08:09] <c0nv1ct> Shaba1: you can make it a seperate drive in windows, you can mount it as a folder on your C drive, or you can extend the existing windows partition to use the rest of the space
[08:09] <Jackthelad> tallman: thx
[08:09] <Jackthelad> finalbeta: why not?
[08:09] <robokop> Shaba1: you can install gparted for easy editting
[08:09] <OldWorldMac> how do I use a one-button mouse?
[08:10] <dcordes> OldWorldMac: get a two button one
[08:10] <OldWorldMac> There seems to be no accessability option I can see
[08:10] <crdlb> hyper-cool, are you trying to install the ati-drivers manually?
[08:10] <variant> OldWorldMac: use it as a lassoo to collect a 3 button one.. :P
[08:10] <dcordes> OldWorldMac: you can donate your old mac mouse for my hard work
[08:10] <finalbeta> Jackthelad: because you remove the option from booting the kernel, but the kernel is still on the system. if you iuninstall the older kernels in Synaptic, it will edit grub for the user.
[08:10] <c0nv1ct> Shaba1: i dont believe the built in partitioner in windows can extend ntfs partitions, but there are 3rd party ones that can
[08:10] <bafoc> tallman: wow, just saw a screen shot of rox-filer... hmmm
[08:10] <dumbnewbie> bafoc: well, i was kind of worried, because now i have more things in grub and my booting was disturbed
 try also idesk
[08:10] <OldWorldMac> dcordes only option? really?
[08:10] <finalbeta> Jackthelad: the end user should be editing grub if it's not needed.
[08:10] <c0nv1ct> Shaba1: in windows xp that is, vista can resize ntfs
[08:10] <dcordes> OldWorldMac: no there is still the lasso option!
[08:10] <Andeh> I am back
[08:10] <Andeh> anyone here who remembers me?
[08:10] <hyper-cool> crdlb: i'm actually in gentoo becuase i couldn't get ubuntu to install. i don't know much of what i'm doing here so yeah i guess i'm doing it manually
[08:10] <bafoc> dumbnewbie: disturbed? how
[08:10] <Jackthelad> finalbeta: ok i see
[08:11] <OldWorldMac> dcordes lasso?
[08:11] <dcordes> Andeh: ah you the guy with fglrx right?
[08:11] <pixi> you can edit grub at boot
[08:11] <Andeh> Yes
[08:11] <Shaba1> yep that is what I thought
[08:11] <TSWoodV> Got install problems with an IBM Thinkpad R30 - during install of Breezy, error messages report that it complains about the CD-ROM.  Anyone out there successful with this?
 I had it out of box while on fluxbuntu
[08:11] <Andeh> How come all yous still here lol
[08:11] <Shaba1> like partition logic I hope
[08:11] <Andeh> I went to have pizza
[08:11] <dcordes> OldWorldMac: "<variant> OldWorldMac: use it as a lassoo to collect a 3 button one.. :P"
[08:11] <c0nv1ct> Shaba1: yes, partition magic can
[08:11] <Andeh> I managed to resize my partitions finally
[08:11] <Andeh> partitionmagic is SLOW
[08:11] <Andeh> took 1.3 hours
[08:11] <bafoc> tallman: did you like it? looks kinda old school :-)
[08:11] <dcordes> lol
[08:11] <Chest> guys, how do you start/stop/restart inetd?
[08:11] <OldWorldMac> dcordes ah, that explains the western theme at Fry's Electronics Palo Alto
[08:11] <dumbnewbie> bafoc: well, i have xp also. so i changed the grub menu file so that xp would be default. and now it added two entries and some memtest was default
[08:12] <crdlb> hyper-cool, the ati-drivers are in portage too (and if you need help go to #gentoo)
[08:12] <OldWorldMac> dcordes thanks. I bet I can snag one from tech support
[08:12] <dcordes> OldWorldMac: what's fry's...?
[08:12] <Journeyman> anyone using the 7alpha?
[08:12] <mariusz> root
[08:12] <mariusz> mc
[08:12] <hyper-cool> the people in gentoo are elitist and unhelpful
[08:12] <mariusz> djd
[08:12] <mariusz> siemka
[08:12] <hyper-cool> in #gentoo
[08:12] <mariusz> jest
[08:12] <OldWorldMac> It is a place for Redmond addicts to give over their paychecks
[08:12] <mariusz> kto??
[08:12] <bafoc> dumbnewbie: ah ok, that's what grub does.. it keeps track of your kernel updates ( whichis good just incase 1 kernel doesn't work correctly) you can roll back to a working kernel
[08:12] <Journeyman> I have another computer coming my way and I was thinking of sticking ubuntu 7 on it if it wasn't to unstable
[08:12] <mariusz> zyjecie??
[08:13] <mariusz> elo
[08:13] <mariusz> elo
[08:13] <mariusz> elo
[08:13] <mariusz> hej
[08:13] <dumbnewbie> so every time i update i will get more entries there?
 I did not...but I managed somehow to connect to internet and upgrade first to edgy, then to feisty
[08:13] <bafoc> tallman: your using feisty? from an internet upgrade?
[08:13] <bafoc> tallman: do you like it?
[08:13] <bafoc> tallman: buggy?
[08:14] <hyper-cool> crdlb: do you know hat i need to emerge to get them? thanks
[08:14] <piglit> memtest86+ is giving error's does this mean i have to return the memory to the store?
 I've overexperimented with it and ruined the system
[08:14] <Andeh> OK i am using the installer someone here linked me to, official ATI for linux
[08:14] <bafoc> dumbnewbie: only if, when you run the update it installs a new kernel. If it does, there usually a good reason for it. Security issues, hardware support etc.
[08:14] <AmaroqWolf> journeyman: I thought the newest ubuntu was 6.10. :P
[08:14] <bafoc> tallman: hehe, sounds like stuff I do
[08:14] <Andeh> THe last time i used this it wouldnt start X so i hope it doesnt repeat that lol
 buggy for me =)
[08:14] <LjL> piglit: most likely
[08:15] <crdlb> hyper-cool, ati-drivers (and if please go to #gentoo if you need help)
[08:15] <LjL> piglit: it might also be due to your BIOS being set to wrong timings, so you might want to go to the BIOS setup and "load failsafe values" (or "optimal" values)
[08:15] <Whitor> YOu guys MUST read this... hysterical - Why linux won't replace windows : http://talkback.zdnet.com/5208-12355-0.html?forumID=1&threadID=31199&messageID=579806&start=43
[08:15] <dumbnewbie> bafoc: thanks. i'll just change the grub menu list again. make the first ubuntu default, then i'll have no problems with that again
[08:15] <cfactor> woah, this channel moves waaay too fast.  bafoc: if no one answered your question while I was talking to my coworker, yes, it does replace the driver line.
[08:15] <LjL> piglit: be careful doing that, though, as it will obviously wipe your current BIOS settings
[08:15] <bafoc> AmaroqWolf: it is, for the stable release :-)
[08:15] <LjL> !offtopic | Whitor
[08:15] <ubotu> Whitor: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[08:15] <AmaroqWolf> bafoc: ah
 so what? it replaced fro me =)
[08:15] <Whitor> bah
[08:15] <LjL> Whitor: (don't post it in -offtopic anyway, we've read it already ;P)
[08:15] <Whitor> just readit
[08:15] <hyper-cool> crdlb: thanks a lot. I tried #gentoo first but everyone actually refused to help
[08:16] <Whitor> its funny
[08:16] <Whitor> the user claims linux runs under windows
[08:16] <LjL> Whitor: and still offtopic
[08:16] <oopsy> hey, can anyone help me?
[08:16] <bafoc> cfactor: no worries... wasn't a major issue for me. I was just trying to understand more of the ubuntu backend stuff :-)
[08:16] <oopsy> im not getting an answer in the xubuntu channel
[08:16] <LjL> Whitor, i know what it claims, and i agree it's funny, but it's just offtopic here
[08:16] <Whitor> ubuntu is linux
[08:16] <bafoc> cfactor: I'm from the redhat rpm world.. :-)
[08:16] <crdlb> hyper-cool, there's a guide on the gentoo wiki
[08:16] <piglit> LjL: so if i remove the new ram-module i will earase my bios settings?
[08:16] <oopsy> can someone tell me what are the dependencies needed for build essential? (IN XUBUNTU)
[08:16] <LjL> Whitor: and this is the Ubuntu *support* channel, not a generic channel where you talk about anything ubuntu related
[08:17] <bafoc> Whitor: no, ubuntu is ubuntu, Linux is Linus ( the Kernel )
[08:17] <LjL> piglit: hm, no, if you just remove the module but never go to the BIOS setup, it won't erase your BIOS settings
[08:17] <Andeh> I have installed the ATI drivers, now i need to config them
[08:17] <Whitor> symantics.... but yeah, its not realted to support, so I agree - off topic
[08:17] <Whitor> duely noted
 so what, what if I claim that I am a bot, would you believe it?
[08:17] <bafoc> http://www.linux.org/info/
[08:17] <cfactor> bafoc: most of dpkg-reconfigure stuff tries to do configuration separate from whatever configuration feature the binary comes with.
[08:18] <LjL> piglit: i'm just saying that, to make *sure* that the RAM module is actually bad, you should do that test in the BIOS first. but i think it's very likely that it's bad, so if it's convenient for you to just return it to the store, i wouldn't think twice - just tell them that memtest fails on it.
[08:18] <Whitor> tallman: ??
[08:18] <Whitor> your a bot ?
[08:18] <LjL> piglit: you could also try reseating it (i.e. unplugging it and then plugging it back)
[08:18] <bafoc> cfactor: ok cool - nice to have/know...
[08:18] <Hammwell> on redhat I could do "service sshd restart" to restart a service like sshd or mysql ... is there an ubuntu equivalent to start/stop/restart services?
[08:18] <Jackthelad> During the update it returned an error, i restarted and now my screen just goes blank, anyone know what i can do to get it back?
[08:18] <bafoc> cfactor: thanks for the info....
the user claims linux runs under window ...that what you wrote
[08:18] <cfactor> bafoc: think of it as rpm's post section for the .spec file, but with configurable options.
[08:19] <bafoc> tallman: linux can run under windows. Winlin
[08:19] <Whitor> tallman: read the link... I never said I beleived it
 yes, I'm a bot =)
[08:19] <harry_> So What's new in Feisty anyways?
[08:19] <Whitor> a very intelligent bot
[08:19] <Whitor> maybe ...
[08:19] <bafoc> cfactor: ah, ok. sounds like dpkg has more post features after install tho...
[08:19] <piglit> LjL: well i think i wont trust the new ram module annyways annymore afher 12 errors
thanks, I never said you do
[08:19] <cfactor> he's a Cylon!
[08:19] <Hammwell> service sshd restart ... "service: command not found" ... doh!
[08:19] <finalbeta> harry_: new gnome and newly updates on apps. + automatic codec installation and better crash reporting. That's about all the end user will notice.
[08:20] <bafoc> Hammwell: the service command is on redhat,fedora based systems
[08:20] <bafoc> :-)
[08:20] <cfactor> ah ha!  Another redhat person!
[08:20] <Hammwell> bafox: what does ubuntu use?
[08:20] <piglit> LjL: so i think i'll return it tomorrow ..... and it isnt a bad brand ... its Kingston ...
[08:20] <harry_> and the things they won't notice
[08:20] <harry_> ?
[08:20] <tallman> I'm a newbe in irc, using xchat now, how do I put quickly the nick of the person I want to chat to in front
[08:20] <cfactor> just do /etc/init.d/whatever.
[08:20] <LjL> piglit: bad RAM modules happen. often.
[08:20] <LjL> !tab | tallman
[08:20] <Whitor> tallman: usually tab
[08:20] <ubotu> tallman: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.
[08:20] <bafoc> from whatI know /etc/init.d/"service name" start,stop,reload,restart etc"
[08:21] <cfactor> the way redhat people used to do before they added the "service" command
[08:21] <predaeus> Hammwell, try sudo /etc/init.d/sshd restart
[08:21] <LightCatcher> I installed imwheel and it works in firefox, but not nautilus. How do I get it to work in nautilus?
[08:21] <Hammwell> cfactor, bafoc, predaus: thx!
[08:21] <peter77> hey, I've just installed Ubuntu dapper by accident (got my edgy and drake dvd mixed), do I just click software update to update to edgy?
[08:21] <tallman> thanks =)
[08:21] <bafoc> Hammwell: np, btw, i'm a fedora,redhat, centos guy
[08:21] <bafoc> hehe
[08:21] <finalbeta> !upgrade > peter77
[08:21] <peter77> lol, I were going to install fedora again but it wasn't partitioning (and ubuntu supports all my hardware)
[08:21] <fabio> olaa!
[08:21] <Whitor> just type enough of the nick so your client can differentiate
[08:21] <Hammwell> uh oh ... there is no sshd in /etc/init.d
[08:21] <piglit> LjL: well thanx need to go now girlfriend doesnt like me to sit behind the PC when se feels nice-looking ....
[08:21] <bafoc> distro's are distro's with some pro's and con's but linux is linux....
[08:22] <Hammwell> but sshd is running because i'm connected via SSH!
[08:22] <piglit> thanx bye bye
[08:22] <cfactor> hammel: apt-get install openssh-server
[08:22] <AnxiousCo> how do I enable the universe/multiverse repositories? I do not see 'Software properties" in 6.10
[08:22] <LjL> !universe > AnxiousCo    (AnxiousCo, see the private message from Ubotu)
[08:22] <cfactor> sshd isn't installed by default
[08:22] <Whitor> piglit: I don't like to sit in from of the pc when my gf is nice -looking
[08:22] <LjL> AnxiousCo: you could just edit /etc/apt/sources.list manually
[08:22] <apokryphos> AnxiousCo: please take a look at the FAQ <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions> as linked to in the channel /topic.
[08:22] <LightCatcher> How do I get back and forward buttons to work in nautilus?
[08:22] <LjL> AnxiousCo: don't know about the GUI, since i don't use GNOME... but it definitely should be there, in some form or another
[08:23] <Whitor> AnxiousCo: System - Synaptics package manager - repositories
[08:23] <Hammwell> cfactor ... but I did apt-get install ssh, and I'm actually logged in via ssh right now .. and just tyring to turn off direct root login (done in the config file now) and then restart it ... will see if apt-get install openssh-server adds the /etc/init.d thing.
[08:23] <apokryphos> !test
[08:23] <ubotu> Failed.
[08:23] <bafoc> lol
[08:23] <LjL> Hammwell: wait, you have sshd installed, but you don't have its script in /etc/init.d?
[08:23] <foutrelis> Hammwell: /etc/init.d/ssh maybe?
[08:23] <Chest>  guys, how do you start/stop/restart inetd?
[08:23] <cfactor> foutrelis is right.

[08:27] <Jetfighter> Is there a way to disable it so I don't need to enter "sudo" when I do certain commands? like instead of "sudo apt-get install _____" I can just "apt-get install _____"
[08:27] <doug_> can you install lamp on an ubuntu desktop/
[08:27] <apokryphos> Jetfighter: please take a look at the FAQ <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions> as linked to in the channel /topic.
[08:27] <LjL> Jetfighter: no, but you can make aliases
[08:27] <bafoc> Yes, sudo su -
[08:27] <foutrelis> doug_: Yes
[08:27] <tallman> doug_, yes
[08:27] <finalbeta> doug_: ofcource
[08:27] <LjL> Jetfighter: try typing  alias inst="sudo apt-get install"
[08:27] <apokryphos> bafoc: please don't advise that; advise sudo -i instead.
[08:27] <AnxiousCo> why does "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper universe multiverse" not work??
[08:27] <[Tuxedo] > Jetfighter: try using just su and logging in as root :)
[08:27] <doug_> how?
[08:27] <jrib> !lamp | doug_
[08:27] <ubotu> doug_: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[08:27] <LjL> Jetfighter: then try typing  inst something 
[08:27] <bafoc> apokryphos: ok
[08:27] <foutrelis> doug_: my way is: sudo apt-get install apache2 php5 mysql-server-5.0 phpmyadmin

[08:28] <AnxiousCo> deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper universe multiverse is not for version 6.10 is it? how do I do this in 6.10?
[08:28] <apokryphos> Jetfighter: stop abusing the bot; I won't tell you again.
[08:28] <doug_> thanks
[08:28] <LjL> Jetfighter: err, i don't know how else to put it. type  alias inst = "sudo apt-get install" , then type  inst somepackage , where "somepackage" is any package you like. you'll still be asked for a password... but no need to type sudo
[08:29] <foutrelis> doug_: If you install mysql don't forget to change its root password which is set to (blank) by default.
[08:29] <HowlingMad> does anybody know what clock and nav bar at the bottom of this vid is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0ZtcxHUSDQ plz ?
[08:29] <AnxiousCo> ugh it is such a hassle to set up the most basic things!
[08:29] <tallman> !mesa
[08:29] <Hammwell> foutrelis: whats the way to change the mysql root password?
[08:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mesa - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:30] <Jetfighter> LjL, I figured it out already :P But, I installed lamp, where do I put files so I can go to http://localhost in a browser and view it?
[08:30] <c0nv1ct> AnxiousCo: its actually very simple, its just different
[08:30] <foutrelis> Hammwell: I do it through phpmyadmin. But there is also a command prompt way
[08:30] <cfactor> Hammwell: read the documentation on mysql.com.  It's very good.
[08:30] <apokryphos> HowlingMad: it's cairo-clock
[08:30] <foutrelis> Hammwell: cfactor is right :)
[08:30] <cfactor> and not that difficult to read
[08:30] <finalbeta> Jetfighter: look under /var
[08:30] <Hammwell> ok will do. just thoguht I'd ask since I have to do the same stuff doug will hehe.
[08:30] <apokryphos> HowlingMad: not sure where you get it from; possibly the beryl repository.
[08:30] <Hammwell> thx
[08:30] <AnxiousCo> I have been spending hours and days trying to just get a printer job to work... very differnt >:(
[08:30] <tallman> POstgesql is better then mysql :P
[08:30] <Jetfighter> finalbeta, huh?
[08:31] <cfactor> there's a section on locking down the installation, including disabling the test account.
[08:31] <peter77> Is AIGLX included with Edgy?
[08:31] <finalbeta> Jetfighter: the web dir for apache will be somewhere under /var, can't remember the exact structure for ubuntu.
[08:31] <HowlingMad> thnx what about the mac like bar at the bottom
[08:31] <Andeh> I am back yet again
[08:31] <Andeh> But using a stupid restore technique my mistakes are erased each time
[08:31] <Jetfighter> Says var is a directory :P
[08:32] <tallman> peter77, you have to install it
[08:32] <Kronuz> hello
[08:32] <cheeseboy> how do i run multiple x servers?
[08:32] <apokryphos> HowlingMad: looks like kiba-dock
[08:32] <bafoc> Jetfighter: you place your webpages in /var/www/html
[08:32] <Kronuz> hey, how can I run a command or a couple commands for each file in a directory in linux?
[08:32] <peter77> k, I have a intel chipset, will AIGLX work?
[08:32] <finalbeta> peter77: it's not enabled by default, this is a Feisty spec, next version : https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/accelerated-x
[08:32] <apokryphos> Kronuz: like?
[08:32] <cfactor> Kronuz: man xargs
[08:32] <H264> Hey
[08:32] <cfactor> also man find.
[08:32] <Kronuz> in the shell, I meant
[08:32] <neopsyche> hi .. when installing LTS 6.10.. how does someone installi it from live cd?
[08:33] <tallman> hey
[08:33] <Andeh> Now, i am trying to install ATI drivers. Every time i do so using aticonfig it messes up xorg.conf
[08:33] <Andeh> So, what do i have to do? Aticonfig just messes it up and thats the only thing i know how to do?
[08:33] <Andeh> any help?
[08:33] <tallman> have to sleep...
[08:33] <finalbeta> neopsyche: boot from the cd, and click the install icon on the desktop.
[08:33] <H264> oh, Hi tallman :)
[08:33] <Kronuz> say I have a whole bunch of files and I want to run two commands for each (with the filename as an argument of those commands)
[08:33] <[Tuxedo] > Andeh have you tried the radeon drivers yet?
[08:33] <cfactor> every command-line warriors should learn find and xargs.
[08:33] <Andeh> YES

[08:33] <H264> I would imagine...
[08:33] <Andeh> It installs and tells me to use aticonfig, aticonfig messes it up
[08:33] <Andeh> so what do i do?
[08:33] <bafoc> cfactor: I Totally agree
[08:33] <neopsyche> ok
[08:33] <neopsyche> thanks finalbet
[08:34] <neopsyche> same for kubuntu?
[08:34] <H264> how do I install GRUB onto another partition?
[08:34] <Andeh> All i am trying to do is install beryl,
[08:34] <Kronuz> also, I was trying to do something like: sudo echo "something" > in_restricted_directory
[08:34] <[H] 3b0R> hello, anyone here owning an HP Compaq nx6325?
[08:34] <[Tuxedo] > aticonfig-- initial turns your drivers back to fglrx as far as I know
[08:34] <[Tuxedo] > Hold on a sec, I'll grab you a link :)
[08:34] <finalbeta> Andeh: make sure your card is supported by the fglrx drivers. Else it will always fail.
[08:34] <neopsyche> and which is better?/// kde or gnome
[08:34] <Kronuz> but by the time it gets to the '>' it's already a non privileged user
[08:34] <Mena> Why ext3 file system dont use or enable utf8 support ???
[08:34] <neopsyche> and whats the diffrence kubuntu or ubuntu?
[08:34] <Xubu4u> I am a teacher and recently got Ubuntu on (near) all my computers, mac and PC. How do I make a log on that has no internet access?
[08:34] <Andeh> It is, according to people who were in this room 4 hours ago when i first asked >_>
[08:34] <Xubu4u> ubuntu = gnome Kubuntu = KDE
[08:34] <Kronuz> (so it can't write to the restricted directory...
[08:34] <[Tuxedo] > oh, the forums are offline
[08:34] <neopsyche> ok.. which gui chows more processing?
[08:35] <[Tuxedo] > :(
[08:35] <bafoc> Andeh: http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install_Beryl_on_Ubuntu_Edgy_with_AIGLX
[08:35] <neopsyche> or both same.
[08:35] <Kronuz> apokryphos, it's more of a *nix my questions
[08:35] <Andeh> XFCE is the lightest one
[08:35] <cheeseboy>  how do i run multiple x servers?
[08:35] <Andeh> the lightest gui
[08:35] <cfactor> Kronuz: find . -type f -print0 | xargs -n1 -0 mycommand
[08:35] <Andeh> thanks bafoc
[08:35] <neopsyche> is kde ok?
[08:35] <cfactor> that'll run mycommand <filename>
[08:35] <finalbeta> neopsyche: KDE gives you more config options and clutter, GNOME less options, more simple and sane.
[08:35] <bafoc> Andeh: your welcome
[08:35] <cfactor> on all files.
[08:35] <Xubu4u> neopsyche: are you looking for the lightest weight / memory efficient desktop?
[08:35] <Andeh> But its exactly those commands that mess it.
[08:35] <neopsyche> which is lighter .. kde or gnome?
[08:35] <H264> xfce
[08:35] <bafoc> Andeh: hmmm
[08:35] <cfactor> fluxbox!!!!
[08:36] <H264> CommandLine!
[08:36] <H264> :P
[08:36] <cfactor> screen!
[08:36] <Andeh> XFCE is the lightest gui nepshyche
[08:36] <neopsyche> memory efficient yes.. im running old OLD hardware .. but want to run streaming video server.. yes sad i know .. but im still looking to get better hardware ... got a tv card today.
[08:36] <neopsyche> xfce... hmm
[08:36] <bafoc> Andeh: Nvidia :-) would be my suggestion. Much, much better support under linux
[08:36] <neopsyche> I only have like 196 mb ram'
[08:36] <Kronuz> cfactor, does that need a list of files separated by spaces?
[08:36] <cfactor> correction: XFCE is the lightest gui ENVIRONMENT
[08:36] <cheeseboy>  how do i run multiple x servers?
[08:36] <Andeh> Yes but i am on a laptop :-(
[08:36] <Kronuz> (xargs that is)
[08:36] <Xubu4u> neopsyche You want Xcfe, it was built for light weight. either get Xubuntu instller, or just apt-get install xubuntu-desktop then change your session settings
[08:37] <neopsyche> ok.
[08:37] <H264> I have xfce installed on my 475Hz with 128MB ram...
[08:37] <Xubu4u> cheeseboy you don't. you start a new session
[08:37] <H264> runs quite nicely
[08:37] <neopsyche> but im installing kubuntu from start now .. from live cd
[08:37] <cfactor> Kornuz: the command I sent you will automatically parse all files within the directory (and subdirectory) and run it once for each file.
[08:37] <neopsyche> theres no other way to do it is there?
[08:37] <dager> neopsyche, if you feel more comfortable in a minimalist setting, you could try openbox or fluxbox
[08:37] <bafoc> cheeseboy: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/servers/7496-multiple-x-servers.html

[08:38] <Andeh> thats all i want to do but the guides dont work

[08:40] <bassir> When I open synaptic I get :E: The package virtualbox needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.

[09:07] <Aw0L> I'm trying to install ubuntu server with a couple of hot pluggable sata drives - but ubuntu isn't detecting the controller drivers - can anyone point me in the right direction?
[09:07] <Stormx2> keyser_soze: Why didn't you leave them in .fonts? That would have worked fine...
[09:08] <finalbeta> coffeegrindah: it didn't work? That's impossible :p

[09:08] <bassir> It tells me to reinstall a program because it's in a bad "state" but when I try to it tells me :E: The package virtualbox needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.

[09:08] <Stormx2> !info virtualbox
[09:08] <neopsyche> ok .. im installing 5.10 because its easy.. and only requires 64mb ram as opposed to 256!
[09:08] <ubotu> Package virtualbox does not exist in edgy, edgy-backports, edgy-seveas
[09:08] <zukero> foutrelis, just nice enough not to make me use wine to run n++

[09:09] <RabidSnail> zukero: maybe under wine, but i'd just use gedit or gvim
[09:09] <bafoc> eck: lol
[09:09] <zorglu_> Stormx2: they got .deb just find the repository
[09:09] <zukero> what's lighttpd ?
[09:09] <finalbeta> coffeegrindah: reinstalling unless using --purge does not remove configuration files. so that's not sure to help then.
[09:09] <foutrelis> zukero: A web server
[09:09] <RabidSnail> zukero: a lightweight web server
[09:09] <Stormx2> zorglu_: Why do they need the repo? dpkg -i will do it surely?
[09:09] <zorglu_> hehe
[09:10] <zukero> so why should I need it ?

[09:12] <ubotu> zorglu :): checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running!

I just want to get rid of the messed up package and get on with my Ubuntu experience. This is getting harder than windows. :(
[09:14] <cvk77> dst3: ...or take a look at http://www.ibiblio.org/oswg/oswg-nightly/oswg/en_US.ISO_8859-1/articles/gdm-reference/gdm-reference/x135.html
[09:14] <dst3> cvk77:  no i didnt know about that..  in the file Greeter is set to start.. but this happended when i selected "Chooser" from the login Window settings menu in xubuntu

[09:15] <asdzcx> hi
[09:15] <asdzcx> how do i change the keyboard layout in gnome terminal in ubuntu ?
[09:15] <finalbeta> bassir: the virtualbox package is known by nobody here, you can try !launchpad for a support request, you might even try to reinstall synaptic itself, from the commandline sudo aptitude reinstall --purge synaptic
[09:16] <dst3> cvk77:  i already saw that link...what im unsure of is what exactly should be done (im new to linux).. i know gdm takes care of logging in.  now is the "remote login" screen a program run by gdm while the "regular login" screen is a different program ?

[09:17] <asdzcx> how do i change the keyboard layout in gnome terminal in ubuntu ?
[09:18] <finalbeta> bassir: that error is weird, nobody know what the virtualbox package is?
[09:18] <ompaul> bassir, and the result of dpkg --configure -a
[09:18] <cvk77> dst3: i actually don't know as i don't use gdm, but to fix your problem, you could push Ctrl-Alt-F1 to open an text terminal, log in and type "/etc/init.d gdm stop" to shutdown gdm and "sudo aptitude reinstall --purge gdm" to reinstall it. this should reset the configuration. maybe someone here knows an easier way?
 it just goes back to my VirtualBox error.
 this is virtualbox: http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Screenshots
 I was actually told from someone here another day to use it if I wanted windows in Ubuntu
[09:20] <cvk77> dst3: oh, and don't forget to start gdm afterwards with "/etc/init.d/gdm start"

 it did but then something stopped and when I tried to open Synaptic after that I got the same error as I do now.
 I can use it, if that's what you mean. But I want to get rid of if but I can't
[09:22] <finalbeta> try "sudo aptitude install --force virtualbox" , forces it to install, hopefully it can then be removed.
 This aptitude does not have Super Cow powers

[09:29] <bassir> I've tried to "reinstall" it because force install just told me to reinstall it but I get this: I wasn't able to locate file for the virtualbox package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package.
[09:29] <bafoc> TechnoFrood: in /tftp do you have a dir called pxelinux.cfg with a config file called default in there?
[09:29] <Blissex> baver: there is a relevant 'pppd' option, anyhow, many ISPs disconnect on no traffic.
[09:29] <baver> Blissex: there's traffix the entire time. the problem is tha the connection is dropping before all of the mail is sent

[09:30] <TechnoFrood> /tftpboot/pxelinux.0
[09:30] <eck> Spazmedia: i believe it uses your system timezone files just like every other application
[09:30] <Blissex> baver: if there is traffic then there should be no timeout. Check system logs to see why 'pppd' closes the connection. Use the 'debug' config directive for 'pppd'
[09:31] <bafoc> TechnoFrood: and do you have an init.gz and in /tftpboot?
[09:31] <bafoc> TechnoFrood: and do you have a kernel in /tftpboot?

[09:31] <baver> Blissex: well, without debug I get "Modem Hangup\n... Connec time 10.0 minutes."
[09:31] <frojnd> how can I reinstall package?
[09:31] <TechnoFrood> they are in /tftpboot/ubuntu-installer/i386
[09:32] <LjL> frojnd: sudo apt-get install --reinstall packagename
[09:32] <IcemanV9> sudo aptitude reinstall <packagename>
[09:32] <bafoc> TechnoFrood: hmm, copy them to /tftpboot
[09:32] <Blissex> baver: if it is the modem that hangs up it can be a parameter in the modem init string, or some phone company setting.
[09:32] <Priest-o1-Psi> hi all
[09:32] <bassir> Everything related to installing will just give me the same error...
[09:32] <Blissex> baver: but the modem hangup can be a consequence. check with 'debug'.
[09:32] <bafoc> TechnoFrood: and modify the pxelinux.cfg/default file to reflect it
[09:32] <baver> Blissex: thanks for the help, but gotta split ... I'll do some more reading, and try with debug

 No, I'm not I don't even know what that it
[09:49] <firefoxman> If I set up Xubuntu to take a chunk out of the windows partition, can I easily resize my partition afterwards?
[09:49] <jrib> bassir: just paste all the virtualbox scripts in /var/lib/dpkg/info/ actually.  That will make things easier
[09:49] <hossasaur> jrib: ok
[09:50] <jrib> hossasaur: did that work?
[09:50] <hossasaur> jrib: no
 Where is the "scripts"?
[09:50] <Michel> I have installed Apache2, php5 and MySQL on my small ubuntu server. I think i did it correct but when i request a .php page i can only download it.... ;-(

[09:50] <hossasaur> jrib: yes
[09:51] <jrib> hossasaur: what error do you get when you try to touch
[09:51] <bafoc> Michel: Did you restart the apache server?

[09:51] <Michel> bafoc: several times
[09:51] <ep2011> Does anyone else get errors similar to mine?
[09:51] <jrib> !lamp | Michel
[09:51] <ubotu> Michel: 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+)
[09:51] <Michel> i also checked the config and it looks ok...

[09:53] <hossasaur> jrib: nope
[09:53] <CoRnJuLiOx> ok, i've just made an ubuntu 6.10 CD< and when i try to "start or install ubuntu" from this PC it kernel panics on me saying something about not being able to sync, and on another computer, its just sitting there at the loading screen with the moving bar.
[09:53] <CoRnJuLiOx> whats going on here?
[09:53] <jrib> hossasaur: ok then restart the whole thing
[09:54] <ep2011> CoRnJuLiOx - I just pasted the same error as you, with no response...
[09:54] <hossasaur> jrib: under file browser, it says the only person with read/write permissions is root
[09:54] <hossasaur> jrib: i'm not root in gnome
[09:54] <Michel> Thanx guys!
[09:54] <svg_> hi folks, gotta prob with feisty, updated untill 'today', with beryl enabled en tweaked: worked fine the whole day, until I rebooted: now after login, the gnome desktop does not start completely
[09:54] <CoRnJuLiOx> this IS a livecd, isnt it?
[09:54] <Michel> UBUNTU really, really rocks!!!
[09:54] <firefoxman> Yes, it does.
[09:55] <ynk> oh....usplash-switcher showed me my splash.so is indeed broken.
[09:55] <svg_> it's ging slow, until only the panels with some of the panel apps, but no other stuff like nautilus
[09:55] <jrib> hossasaur: ok, lets take a step back.  Does 'ls /media/fat' list a file called oasdjfoaisdfhaisu?
[09:56] <jrib> !feisty | svg_

[09:56] <Kirby904> what type of partition can both windows xp and ubuntu read/write to?
[09:56] <hossasaur> jrib: yes
[09:57] <jrib> hossasaur: ok, have you closed all instances of nautilus and opened a new one?  Does it still not let you get to /media/fat?
[09:57] <jrib> Kirby904: ext3, fat32
[09:57] <firefoxman> what about NTFS
[09:57] <firefoxman> Will it work?
[09:57] <jrib> !ext3 | Kirby904
[09:57] <ubotu> Kirby904: ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[09:58] <firefoxman> !ntfs
[09:58] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[09:58] <Priest-o1-Psi> is there like a side bar for gnome?
[09:58] <Kirby904> but fat32 works also?
[09:58] <hossasaur> jrib: yes

I've redownloaded it once and burned it on 2 diffent kinds of m
[10:02] <jrib> abcdef: explain exactly what you mean by "don't boot"
[10:02] <abcdef>  Cappy . so i can't remove gdm?
[10:03] <jrib> abcdef: you can
[10:03] <phewl> ep2011, have you checked md5sums ?
[10:03] <ep2011> Scorched: I have that laptop with a 12" screen, my sound is the same
[10:03] <andygraha> ep2011-did you test the CD with the built in test utility?
[10:03] <ep2011> phewl, yes and its different for some reason
[10:03] <Kronuz> hey, when I chose "open with..." in nautilus
[10:03] <ep2011> no andy
[10:03] <Kronuz> where are those setting saved
[10:03] <hossasaur> jrib: i still can't write to most folders in the partition
[10:03] <ep2011> but i downloaded it twice
[10:03] <ep2011> why would it be wrong?
[10:03] <PirateHead> abcdef: how does it "not boot"? Where does it stop?
[10:03] <phewl> ep2011, if the sums dont match you dont have the correct file
[10:03] <Kronuz> (cause I accidentaly chose the wrong program and now it's the default)
[10:03] <jrib> hossasaur: can you do so through the terminal?
[10:03] <ep2011> i downloaded from the official torrent tracker
[10:03] <abcdef> it s loading and it just stay there
[10:03] <ep2011> twice
[10:03] <ompaul> abcdef, there is the server CD - or sudo apt-get install rcconf ; sudo rcconf; << (turn off gdm and other stuff) and >> sudo apt-get remove --purge whatever
[10:04] <jrib> Kronuz: so go back to right click > properties > open with  and fix it
[10:04] <abcdef> you know the ubuntu loading bar?
[10:04] <andygraha> ep2001-just test it...then come back if you need additional help
[10:04] <abcdef> it just stop there
[10:04] <phewl> ep2011, if the sums dont match then you do not have the correct file, somethng is oviously missing from the download
[10:04] <Kronuz> jrib, but the Open With doesn't show the old app
[10:04] <jrib> Kronuz: add it
[10:04] <hossasaur> jrib: i can't write to most folders under my user
[10:04] <Kronuz> jrib, it was the Emerald Theme Manager
[10:04] <carlesoriol> somebody knows how to lock the hours an user can log in the sistem?
[10:04] <hossasaur> jrib: i can write to the partition though
[10:05] <gn0me> When I try to "apt-get dist-upgrade" I get a message saying "dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem." but when I run that command, no output is made, and going back to "apt-get dist-upgrade" returns the same error again.
[10:05] <jrib> hossasaur: try unmounting and mounting again.  That is strange
[10:05] <ep2011> phewl - should I download the http one?
[10:05] <asd> hi all, I have a .img file (2.5 GB). who can I burn this on DVD?
[10:05] <hossasaur> jrib: for example, i can write to /media/fat, but not /media/fat/videos
[10:05] <Kronuz> jrib, :(
[10:05] <phewl> ep2011, you should maybe try another mirror :)
[10:05] <Kronuz> now I have three open with in the menu
[10:05] <robbie_crash> if I want to switch /var/ to a different partition, do I just need to create the partition, mount it temporarily, copy everything in var to it, then remount  it as /var/ ?
[10:05] <jrib> Kronuz: you are pressing "properties" before going to "open with" right?
[10:05] <ep2011> I didnt use a mirror - I used a torrent, but okay ill try a mirror and ill reburn it
[10:05] <PirateHead> robbie_crash: that ought to work.
[10:05] <Kronuz> emerald-theme-manager, Emerald Theme Manager (which was the default first) and the other one I added
[10:05] <robbie_crash> thanks
[10:05] <ompaul> !bootoptions >> abcdef
[10:06] <ompaul> !bootoptions > abcdef
[10:06] <andygraha> ep2011-its hopeless...I'd suggest that you give up
[10:06] <abcdef> let me send you a screenshot
[10:06] <Kronuz> jrib, thanks I found it :)
[10:06] <abcdef> so you know what i mean
[10:06] <hossasaur> jrib: still no dice
[10:06] <phewl> ep2011, but this time make sure the md5sums are the same :)
[10:06] <Kronuz> hey, is there a utility in *nix that tells you what files a given process is opening/modifying
[10:06] <Kronuz> ?
[10:06] <bruenig> ep2011, if you used a torrent, the file should be fine
[10:07] <ep2011> okay thank you phewl
[10:07] <ep2011> any recommendations on a md5sum reader on xp?
[10:07] <Kronuz> (or what resources a process or a list of processes are using)
[10:07] <jrib> hossasaur: what permissions do the directories get?
[10:07] <phewl> ep2011, no idea, i live for ubuntu XD
[10:07] <ep2011> :p thanks
[10:07] <hossasaur> jrib: i'm sorry, i don't remember how to check that
[10:07] <userund> ep2011, md5summer
[10:07] <abcdef> http://img506.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ubuntuer2.png <<< here is the screenshot
[10:08] <jrib> hossasaur: ls -ld /some/place
[10:08] <bruenig> ep2011, a torrent hash checks every piece, so that file you have should be flawless
[10:08] <abcdef> it can't load
[10:08] <jrib> abcdef: yeah that's not very helpful :P  Does "recovery mode" work?
[10:08] <hossasaur> jrib: dr-xr-xr-x
[10:08] <hossasaur> jrib: /media/fat gets drwxrwxrwx though
[10:08] <abcdef> jrib, how do i boot to recovery mode?
[10:09] <ep2011> bruenig - but it isn't, ive downloaded it twice, and burned it on 2 different kinds of media
[10:09] <ep2011> I know it should, thats why I was confused
[10:09] <abcdef> i hate ubuntu now
[10:09] <jrib> abcdef: it's an option at the grub menu
[10:09] <bruenig> ep2011, in fact one of the suggested ways to fix bad downloads, is to simply download the torrent and save it to the same directory so that it will hash check all the pieces and redownload whatever is messed up
[10:09] <abcdef> ohh
[10:09] <ep2011> ill download the http and compare the md5 to that
[10:10] <hossasaur> jrib: so /meda/fat gets drwxrwxrwx, subdirs under /media/fat get dr-xr-xr-x
[10:11] <jrib> Kronuz: you can use /proc/PID/fd .  I don't know of a command.  But 'fuser' and 'lsof' may be of interest.  Grepping output of lsof would probably work
[10:11] <jrib> hossasaur: what if you change your fstab to not use dmask and fmask and instead use 'umask=0000'
[10:11] <Ireclan> Can Ubuntu handle WMV and MP3 formats?

[10:12] <AMD> i want to autoload lirc_mceusb2
[10:12] <bruenig> firefoxman, go to launchpad and see

[10:12] <firefoxman> Nope, not listed.
[10:13] <abcdef> jrib, thanks :D what do i need to fix jrib lol
[10:13] <jrib> abcdef: do you get a root prompt?
[10:13] <abcdef> yes im in
[10:13] <bruenig> firefoxman, there you go then
[10:14] <hossasaur> jrib: subdirs are still read-only
[10:14] <jrib> hossasaur: how are you unmounting?
[10:14] <Yuuzhan> hey, i was wondering if someone could help my with my video card (pid 0298 (rev 1a) - nVidia 7900 GS Go).  Running KDE in Ubuntu
[10:14] <abcdef> jrib, it works now, thanks :D i reinstall gdm lol
[10:15] <abcdef> jrib, how do i remove the gui login?
[10:15] <hossasaur> jrib: sudo umount /media/fat
[10:15] <abcdef> i want o use fluxbox not gnome
[10:15] <jrib> abcdef: I don't think that's the issue, but you can try.  I would get rid of "quiet" and "splash" in /boot/grub/menu.lst so you can get output while ubuntu tries to boot
[10:15] <hossasaur> jrib: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=161290
[10:15] <bruenig> abcdef, sudo chmod -x /etc/init.d/gdm will do it
[10:15] <hossasaur> jrib: that seems ridiculous, i shouldn't have to chmod every time i boot the pc
[10:16] <VeganChick> I'm trying to install Compiz, and the command "compiz-tray-icon" isn't working.
[10:16] <bruenig> hossasaur, you don't

[10:16] <VeganChick> it's dead right now
[10:17] <dc2448> I have two network cards connecting to different networks on the same machine - but I only want one to presnt a default route - how?
[10:17] <sarixe> anybody here have problems building gpg 2.0?
[10:17] <abcdef> i have one more question, the key Ring password, how do i remove it? because it's annoying everytime i open an application it ask for the password
[10:17] <jrib> hossasaur: you shouldn't.  This is supposed to work, or at least it did when I used vfat.  Maybe someone else can take a fresh look, I'm out of ideas
[10:17] <F0O> nope sorry
[10:17] <bruenig> hossasaur, what does the fstab line look like
[10:18] <hossasaur> jrib: thanks for the help
[10:18] <jrib> hossasaur: np, hope you sort it out

[10:19] <Kronuz> hey, how do the "sound preview" work?
[10:19] <abcdef> jrib, bruenig , thanks guys!!! :)
[10:19] <hossasaur> jrib: it is supposed to work like this, but i think there's something funny about vfat now...different arguments or something
[10:19] <bruenig> hossasaur, generally for fat32 people use fmask and dmask, but that line should make all permissions available on everything
[10:19] <hossasaur> jrib: it worked 10 years ago, but that was 10 years ago, i don't remember 90% of this stuff
[10:19] <Ireclan> So, all I have to do to enable the playback of the common multimedia formats in any program is to install these extra plugins?
[10:19] <hossasaur> bruenig: including subdirs?
[10:19] <Flannel> abcdef: I read an article about that.  Hmmm.  I think is might be it: http://johnny.chadda.se/2007/02/21/unlock-the-gnome-keyring-upon-login/
[10:19] <dave132> has scottrade killed the linuxtrade stream?
[10:19] <bruenig> hossasaur, yeah
[10:19] <jrib> bruenig: he had fmask and dmask before, I decided to try umask jsut to see if that would change the situation
[10:20] <ep2011> Does anyone have experience with a linksys WUSB54G v2 and ubuntu?
[10:20] <Kronuz> ohir, it's working now... but for ogg files only

[10:20] <firefoxman> thank you.
[10:21] <Ireclan> So, all I have to do to enable the playback of the common multimedia formats in any program is to install these extra plugins?

[10:21] <LjL> andygraha, firefoxman: the root password is not the same as the user password -- there simply is *no* valid root password at all. sudo is used instead

[10:23] <bruenig> Ireclan, for encrypted dvds yes
[10:23] <andygraha> All I want is the OS and the browser because I don't want the user calling and asking questions I don't know the answer to
[10:23] <CryoTox> Any way to fix this?
[10:23] <jrib> CryoTox: install mtools
[10:23] <LjL> carlesoriol: yeah, and the answer is "none" (with the explanation "use sudo instead"). explaining how to enable a root password -- which is possibly *far* from the best thing to do -- is not best.
[10:23] <abcdef> how come i can't find package libpam-keyring
[10:23] <abcdef> ?
[10:23] <abcdef> it's not include in edgy right
[10:24] <LjL> !info libpam-keyring
[10:24] <beast_> :'(
[10:24] <ubotu> Package libpam-keyring does not exist in edgy, edgy-backports, edgy-seveas
[10:24] <jrib> !universe | abcdef
[10:24] <LjL> no it's not
[10:24] <ubotu> abcdef: 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
[10:24] <ep2011> Gparted is on the Ubuntu Live CD, correct?
[10:24] <bruenig> abcdef, because it doesn't exist
[10:24] <CryoTox> jrib: Thanks
[10:24] <jrib> oh, it's in feisty only abcdef
[10:24] <Flannel> abcdef: apparently that's a feisty only package.
[10:24] <andygraha> Yes...I don't really follow that...It should be as easy as logging in as "root" and typing in a password
[10:24] <beast_> could smomeone help me install java and eclipse please?

[10:24] <jrib> !java | beast_
[10:24] <ubotu> beast_: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[10:24] <LjL> andygraha, read Ubotu's link and you'll understand..
[10:24] <LjL> !sudo | andygraha, this link
[10:24] <ubotu> andygraha, this link: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:24] <Flannel> andygraha: The root account is disabled, so no you cant.  It doesn't have a password to login to.
[10:25] <cvk77> !de | cvk77
[10:25] <bruenig> andygraha, you don't login as root, you preface any command that needs root with "sudo" and then put your user password.
[10:25] <Journeyman> flamesrock it is not disabled
[10:25] <firefoxman> Who comes up with the numbering scheme for ubuntu releaces?
[10:25] <firefoxman> !lts
[10:25] <bruenig> hossasaur, did you try removing rw?
[10:25] <ubotu> LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server.
[10:25] <abcdef> oh
[10:25] <opteek> i jui just installed beryl and emerald theme manager, beryl works fine, but the window manager emerald doesn't work, it's running, but I can't select/change themes and its not even running a window manager, my windows are locked in place...
[10:25] <andygraha> bruening- I have to use "sudo" to uninstall unneeded applications?
[10:25] <bruenig> firefoxman, the first digit is the year, the digits after the . is the mont
[10:25] <bruenig> h
[10:26] <andygraha> I don't have a clue how to do that
[10:26] <firefoxman> Oh.
[10:26] <beast_> thank you, but what's the difference between free java nad sun java
[10:26] <opteek> i jui just installed beryl and emerald theme manager, beryl works fine, but the window manager emerald doesn't work, it's running, but I can't select/change themes and its not even running a window manager, my windows are locked in place...
[10:26] <dyrne> andygraha: basically if the user is a member of admin group they have sudo access which pretty much equates to root
[10:26] <Journeyman> andrerav: if you type sudo -s
[10:26] <Journeyman> that will give you a root shell
[10:26] <andygraha> I don't want a root shell
[10:26] <Journeyman> or sudo passwd will allow you to set the password for root
[10:26] <LjL> andygraha:  sudo apt-get remove <packagename>  to uninstall a package.
[10:26] <asd> hi, since the website from ubuntu changed I cannot find the download link for 7.04. can someone help me please
[10:26] <firefoxman> So, it is not a real HUGE improvement, like moving from phpBB1 to 2
[10:26] <firefoxman> to 3
[10:26] <Journeyman> asd: I am downloading it now give me a sec to find the url
[10:27] <bruenig> andygraha, ok explain why you want to login as root, what is it you are wanting to do
[10:27] <Lam_> how do i reset/restart the OSS sound driver?
[10:27] <dyrne> Lam_: sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart  i think that is the script name
[10:27] <Jewbilee> Where is the pagge on Ubuntu about burning the ISO to a cd, I cant find it and i need that program.
[10:27] <dyrne> Lam_: arg nm
[10:27] <andygraha> bruenig-I want to uninstall Open Office and all un-needed applications. It won't uninstall. I thought if I might log in as root I could uninstall.
[10:28] <Journeyman> asd http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/feisty/herd-5/
[10:28] <bruenig> andygraha, no sudo apt-get remove
[10:28] <asd> Journeyman: thx
[10:28] <firefoxman> When I signed up for launchpad, I typed my name wrong. How can I fix it?
[10:28] <dyrne> andygraha: or just run synaptic  the package manager
[10:28] <hossasaur>  bruenig: no dice
[10:28] <andygraha> dyrne-I did that...It won't uninstall
[10:29] <hossasaur> bruenig: it's bizarre, i have full r/w for /media/fat, but just read from /media/fat/subdirs
[10:29] <Kronuz> is imwheel the only way to make my mouse's side buttons work in nautilus?
[10:29] <Kronuz> those buttons already work in FireFox
[10:29] <jrib> Kronuz: you can use xbindkeys too
[10:29] <Kronuz> hmm
[10:29] <firefoxman> nvmdn
[10:29] <Kronuz> jrib, that's not installed by default, is it?
[10:30] <bruenig> hossasaur, you could set it to chmod it in rc.local if you want it automatic
[10:30] <hossasaur> bruenig: /media/fat has drwxrwxrwx permissions, all /meda/fat/subdirs has dr-xr-xr-x permissions
[10:30] <hossasaur> bruenig: how do i do that?
[10:30] <ynk> does "usplashify compile image.png" work for anyone? all i get are *.so files that aren't accepted by usplash-switcher nor usplash itself...
[10:30] <bruenig> hossasaur, edit /etc/rc.local and put the chmod command about the "exit" and save it
[10:30] <bruenig> s/about/above/
[10:31] <Kronuz> I also wanted to make the Super key open the panel menu
[10:31] <jrib> Kronuz: system > preferences > keyboard shortcuts
[10:31] <carter> hi - I'm new to LINUX and UBUNTU... I'm having trouble finding how to run installed apps - for example, imagemagick. It is installed, but does not show up in the "Applications" menu, nor can I run imagemagick from a terminal. What to do?
[10:32] <eck> carter: imagemagick installs a bunch of other programs like 'convert' and 'mogrify'
[10:32] <LjL> carter, type "man imagemagick"
[10:32] <Kronuz> jrib, yep, I tried that and it worked, but then I installed Beryl and it has it's own method
[10:32] <eck> you would need to run those from the command line
[10:32] <jrib> carter: it is a command line application, www.imagemagick.org/
[10:32] <gbv22> guys I am encountering an error when i try and install ubuntu, i see its a common error, but i cannot find a solution for it. this is the error.""  /bin/sh:can't access tty; job control turn off"" , please help me out
[10:32] <dyrne> carter: convert is very handy
[10:32] <andygraha> In windows if I wanted to uninstall Open Office I would just go to Add/Remove Programs, select Open Office and click Remove. Is there a way to do that in UBUNTU?
[10:33] <gordonjcp> carter: imagemagick is, as eck and dyrne have said, really really useful
[10:33] <gordonjcp> carter: but it's useful in the way a spanner is useful
[10:33] <Kronuz> jrib, still I can't set the Super key there alone (anymore than I can set a combination of keys with the super key in the system  > preferences > keyboard shortcuts)
[10:33] <LjL> andygraha: yeah. it involves going to Applications -> Add/Remove Programs, unselecting Open Office and clicking Apply.  quite different, huh? :)
[10:33] <opteek> i jui just installed beryl and emerald theme manager, beryl works fine, but the window manager emerald doesn't work, it's running, but I can't select/change themes and its not even running a window manager, my windows are locked in place...
[10:33] <jrib> Kronuz: can't you select a command then press your super key?
[10:33] <Kronuz> jrib, for instance I tried setting Super + D to show the desktop and without Beryl I couldn't do it
[10:33] <gbv22> I'm getting this error when trying to boot, can anyone help me?  /bin/sh:can't access tty; job control turn off
[10:34] <gordonjcp> carter: if you had a huge bunch of pics from your camera, and wanted to rescale them all to web size and thumbnail size, imagemagick and a bit of scripting would do it for you in moments
[10:34] <owner_> i am new to ubuntu can anyone recommend a good php developer
[10:34] <dyrne> andygraha: it should say it will remove ubuntu-desktop in synaptic but that isnt a big deal its just a metapackage
[10:34] <jrib> Kronuz: do you want to use the super key alone or do you want to use it as a modifier?
[10:34] <Kronuz> jrib, both
[10:34] <Kronuz> alone to show the panel menu
[10:34] <jrib> Kronuz: you can't do both
[10:34] <Kronuz> and Super + E to show a Nautilus
[10:34] <carter> it also said sometihng about having a GUI as did unpaper - are GUIs not the norm for graphics packages?
[10:34] <Kronuz> jrib, just like in Windows :P
[10:34] <qebab> I think I might have done a rather huge boo-boo a minute ago here
[10:35] <jrib> Kronuz: well I always assumed you can't do both.  You can try I guess...
[10:35] <qebab> anyone want to give me a bit of help?
[10:35] <jrib> !ask | qebab
[10:35] <ubotu> qebab: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:35] <qebab> ok :)
[10:35] <jrib> !winkey | Kronuz
[10:35] <ubotu> Kronuz: To use the windows key in keyboard shortcuts as a modifier (like ALT): Run 'xmodmap' and see what Super_L corresponds to.  Then follow method B at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=79560 and use <mod4> (or whatever Super_L corresponded to with 'xmodmap') as the modifier. For example, a shortcut to use windows key + d would look like '<mod4>d'
[10:35] <qebab> I mounted a shared drive with smbmount
[10:35] <owner_> also does anyone recommend using wine
[10:35] <qebab> and by mistake I mounted it in ~
[10:35] <qebab> don't ask me why :|
[10:35] <bruenig> owner_, if you need it, what do you want to run with it
[10:35] <qebab> now, naturally everything there disappeared
[10:35] <dyrne> owner_: wine isnt good to rely on but sometimes is handy..i havent used it in ages
[10:35] <qebab> did I just lose everything I had in ~ then?
[10:35] <finalbeta> owner_: sure, why not.
[10:36] <bruenig> I use it all the time, since utorrent is running always
[10:36] <owner_> dvdshrink and dreamweaver
[10:36] <bruenig> owner_, there is a program called xdvdshrink in linux
[10:36] <finalbeta> bruenig: yeah, torrent in wine is great, but try ktorrent, might just be able to replace it for you.
[10:36] <beast_> ok so i can get the java 5.0rtm, but where do I get java5.0 sdk?
[10:36] <qebab> help! :(
[10:36] <bur[n] er> dreamweaver works ok in wine... works well in crossover office
[10:36] <gbv22> anyone have this error  /bin/sh:can't access tty; job control turn off? please hep
[10:36] <finalbeta> beast_: from the sun website.
[10:36] <bruenig> finalbeta, yeah I tried it for a second, the rss support is not good enough
[10:37] <beast_> ok let me check
[10:37] <dyrne> gbv22: what are you doing to get that?
[10:37] <qebab> guys? I can't open terminal/any apps
[10:37] <qebab> which strikes me as 'bad'
[10:37] <owner_> what is a good alternative to dreamweaver
[10:37] <bruenig> !nvu
[10:37] <ubotu> nvu: Complete Web Authoring System. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0final-2ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 8373 kB, installed size 26448 kB
[10:37] <gbv22> dyrne: i am just tryin to install
[10:38] <bruenig> qebab, can you alt + f2
[10:38] <gbv22> dryne: this is what i get when i try to boot
[10:38] <bur[n] er> owner_, bruenig, to be fair nvu is not feature comparable to dreamweaver
[10:38] <qebab> I get the menu, yes
[10:38] <hossasaur> bruenig: so 'sudo chmod -R 777 /media/fat' would work?
[10:38] <dsas> to enable dvd support do I need to install libdvdcss2 AND libdvdread3 ?
[10:38] <bruenig> hossasaur, just chmod
[10:38] <bruenig> hossasaur, no sudo I mean
[10:38] <robbie_crash> Now that I've moved /var/ to a different drive, I can just go to / and rm -rf var right?
[10:38] <eck> there isn't any free software that is feature comparable to dreamweaver
[10:38] <owner_> how about zend studio
[10:38] <bur[n] er> !vfat | hossasaur
[10:38] <ubotu> hossasaur: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse
[10:38] <dsas> eck: try nvu
[10:39] <harry_> how would I go about setting up a small server with a few thin clients?
[10:39] <bur[n] er> dsas, see my comment about 30 seconds ago :P
[10:39] <beast_> ok new question, i want to start fresh but have tried so many installations, how do i delete all my old java installs?
[10:39] <eck> lol
[10:39] <ardchoille> dsas: if you install libdvdread3, it comes with a script that will install libdvdcss2
[10:39] <bur[n] er> harry_, ltsp :)
[10:39] <gbv22> dryne: all i am trying was to install ubuntu... :)
[10:39] <harry_> what?
[10:39] <qebab> bruenig, nothing runs though
[10:39] <qebab> and I mean literally nothing
[10:39] <qebab> :o
[10:39] <bur[n] er> beast_, you install via apt?  use synaptic to remove it
[10:39] <dsas> ardchoille: not in feisty
[10:39] <bruenig> qebab, the run dialog comes up though?
[10:39] <akirksey> hows that going for you gbv22
[10:39] <dyrne> gbv22: see http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=292533&highlight=job+control+turned+off   see styan's comments near bottom
[10:39] <qebab> yes
[10:40] <dsas> ardchoille: and I didn't think in edgy either.
[10:40] <bruenig> qebab, well something runs then
[10:40] <bur[n] er> qebab, run "xterm"
[10:40] <qebab> ok
[10:40] <dsas> ardchoille: could you tell me if that script is present in edgy ? i'm updating the wiki docs.
[10:40] <Kronuz> jrib, sorry to ask, but where's GConf?
[10:40] <beast_> yes via apt, but it doesn't show up in synaptic
[10:40] <gbv22> akirksey: not good
[10:40] <qebab> nothing
[10:40] <bruenig> Kronuz, gconf-editor iirc
[10:40] <ardchoille> dsas: Feisty doesn't have /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/examples/install_css.sh ?
[10:40] <gbv22> dyrne:thanks...lemme try
[10:40] <bur[n] er> qebab, you see your panels?
[10:40] <odix> is there a gui for wuftpd ?
[10:40] <dsas> ardchoille: no
[10:40] <hossasaur> bruenig: so chmod works in the terminal right now, but it will automatically run chmod every boot?  nice....
[10:40] <qebab> yes, they are there
[10:40] <odix> standard with ubuntu
[10:40] <hossasaur> bruenig: thanks
[10:40] <jgrau> hello. i need to use the nvidia driver. the drivers are installed, and when i turn them on without a restart I can use the 3d acceleration. But when I try to reboot after enabling the nvidia driver, X will not start before I set the driver back to nv. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
[10:40] <robbie_crash> Now that I've moved /var/ to a different drive, I can just go to / and rm -rf var right?
[10:40] <andygraha> Nope..Add/Remove programs...uncheck open office..."Cannot Remove...One or more applications depend on"
[10:41] <ardchoille> dsas: I don't know about Edgy, I am still on Dapper and won't be using Edgy ever.
[10:41] <eck> andygraha: you will have to remove ubuntu-desktop
[10:41] <bur[n] er> qebab, is something taking the processor that is slowing it all down?  run htop at a ctrl+alt+f1?  alt+f7 to get back to X
[10:41] <dsas> ardchoille: thanks.
[10:41] <qebab> no, bur[n] er, I know why nothing runs, I just have no idea how to fix it
[10:41] <eck> i think you have to do it with apt (maybe synatpic)
[10:41] <qebab> I mounted a shared drive in /home/robb by mistake
[10:41] <andygraha> eck-thanks..I'll try that
[10:41] <akirksey> gbv22, is the live cd hanging up?
[10:41] <qebab> and robb is the user I am on right now
[10:41] <Razor44> does anybody have a lexmark 240 laser working under ubu?
[10:41] <bur[n] er> qebab, umount it... logout and back in
[10:41] <andygraha> what is "apt"?
[10:41] <qebab> everything but the drive disappeared from there
[10:41] <hossasaur> jrib: thanks for the help.  it seems as though others have had trouble using umask/fmask/gmask on vfat partitions, not sure why.  i just have it chmod -777 on boot, all fixed.
have you tried eclipse?
[10:41] <bruenig> !apt | andygraha
[10:41] <ubotu> andygraha: 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)
[10:41] <eck> andygraha: when you try to remove openoffice with apt it will prompt you to remove any packages that depend on it
[10:41] <qebab> I can't unmount it as smbumount won't run
[10:41] <qebab> :/
[10:42] <jrib> hossasaur: ok, I guess that works
[10:42] <jgrau> hello. i need to use the nvidia driver. the drivers are installed, and when i turn them on without a restart I can use the 3d acceleration. But when I try to reboot after enabling the nvidia driver, X will not start before I set the driver back to nv. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
[10:42] <qebab> bur[n] er, basically, what I want to know is if I have lost those files?
[10:42] <bur[n] er> qebab, logout from your user... login as other user... then use sudo umount
[10:42] <qebab> ok
[10:42] <bur[n] er> qebab, i don't think so

[10:43] <odix> is there a gui for wu-ftpd ?
[10:43] <akirksey> hey has anyone been having a problem with the howto guide to Texas Instruments SD disk readers?
[10:43] <LjL> zoli2k: besides, the protocol is "Direct Connect" or DC. DC++ is a Windows program.

[10:48] <robbie_crash> So in moving /var/ to a new partition, I accidentally moved everything to /dev/hda3/var instead of /dev/hda3 so now I cannot do anything, I can't edit my fstab, or move the files up since I don't have authority to do so, what can I do?
[10:48] <jewbilee> I'm trying to install Fiesty Fawn from the live cd, and I need help partitioning the harddrive, for my main / partition, is the type ext3 and the mount point "/"?
[10:48] <qebab> I nearly shit myself back there
[10:48] <beast_> whats the terminal command to change directory?
[10:48] <eck> jewbilee: that is correct
[10:48] <F0O> Flannel
[10:48] <jewbilee> eck: Thanks
[10:48] <qebab> cd /somedir/anotherdir etc
[10:48] <Dusk_> hi there
[10:48] <beast_> chdir?
[10:48] <qebab> without the 'etc' part
[10:48] <qebab> :|
[10:48] <Flannel> F0O: ISPConfig isn't a part of ubuntu.
[10:48] <ryan_> anyone have any problems with the power management prefernces on feisty for laptop???
[10:48] <Flannel> beast_: cd
[10:48] <qebab> just cd, beast
[10:48] <beast_> thankks
[10:48] <eck> hosting pannels are the devil
[10:48] <Flannel> ryan_: #ubuntu+1 for feisty support
[10:49] <ryan_> thanks flannel
[10:49] <Flannel> jewbilee: #ubuntu+1 for feisty support
[10:49] <Dusk_> i can't dual boot my ubuntu..i have installed it in my second drive but it gives me grub error 5. what can i do??
[10:49] <jewbilee> Flannel: thanks, it was just a general question though
[10:49] <F0O> Flannel please
[10:49] <Flannel> jewbilee: Al, yeah, the main partition is / and ext3
[10:49] <eck> Dusk_: what is grub error 5? I don't think most people have them memorized
[10:50] <Dusk_> partition invalid or corrupt
[10:50] <Dusk_> eck:  i have the right menu.lst file
[10:50] <dyrne> F0O: did you ask me something?
[10:50] <eck> you probably messed up the drive mapping
[10:50] <jewbilee> Can someone explain to me this "Migrate Documents and Settings" thing?  Does it make a complete copy of my windows documents and settings files or just make them accesible?
[10:50] <Dusk_> eck: how can i fix it??
[10:50] <cosmodad> I've just installed sun-java6-plugin. Can anyone tell me why Firefox won't load any java applets?
[10:51] <robbie_crash> So in moving /var/ to a new partition, I accidentally moved everything to /dev/hda3/var instead of /dev/hda3 so now I cannot do anything, I can't edit my fstab, or move the files up since I don't have authority, nor can I sudo to anything because /var/run/sudo doesn't exist,  to do so, what can I do?
[10:51] <eck> Dusk_: map the drives correctly
[10:51] <F0O> dyrne i was wondering if you could help me
[10:51] <F0O> i get this error
[10:51] <eck> you might be able to just get away with re-running grub-install
[10:51] <Flannel> jewbilee: I think that's a new feature on Feisty (because I've never heard of it).  You might ask in #ubuntu+1
[10:51] <jewbilee> ok
[10:51] <eck> otherwise you have to open up a grub shell and map them manually
[10:51] <jewbilee> thanks
[10:51] <F0O> ERROR: The PHP binary coming with ISPConfig does not work properly on your system! The installation routine stops here!
[10:51] <dooglus> robbie_crash: boot into rescue mode
[10:51] <beast_> cosmodad: did you install java 6 using a guide or something?
[10:51] <vox754> The only thing I don't like about "gedit" is that it doesn't reload text files that have been modified, so I have to close and open the file again. Do you know a better editor with Tcl syntax highlighting and configurable background, foreground and so?
[10:51] <erUSUL> !java

[10:51] <piranesi> somebody help me please, I have slow scrollings with an ATI 9600, 3d working and 2d is working very bad
[10:51] <Flannel> F0O: ISP config is not anything having to do with ubuntu.  You should check their documentation
[10:51] <cosmodad> beast_: just aptitude'd it
[10:51] <Megaqwerty> could someone tell me how to install the gmpy module for python?

[10:52] <Dusk_> eck: i couldn't find where to reinstall ubuntu grub..i use pardus linux and i reinstalled its grub and fixed drive mapping..but it still gives me error
[10:52] <beast_> cosmodad: could you please help install it?

[10:52] <cosmodad> beast_: I'm asking for help myself!
[10:52] <AsusM2N-MX> how do i reset a panel applet properties from the command line?
[10:52] <[BTF] Chm0d> what is the cmd to find your BusID for you vid card?
[10:52] <beast_> cosmodad: lol but you're furthur than i am
[10:52] <eck> Dusk_: grub has your hard drives swapped so it is looking for the right partition on the wrong drive
[10:53] <vox754> eck: preferably pretty ...
[10:53] <beast_> cosmodad: it's ok nvm
[10:53] <eck> so it is looking for the fifth partition on the drive that doesn't have five
[10:53] <cosmodad> beast_: just one "sudo aptitude install sun-java6-plugin"
[10:53] <dooglus> vox754: it's a text editor.  can they be pretty?
[10:53] <eck> the console is pretty!
[10:53] <eck> you can get 256 colors in gnome-terminal
[10:53] <eck> it looks damn sexy
[10:53] <cosmodad> beast_: but maybe you wanna try, it worked on my girlfriend's machine flawlessly
[10:53] <beast_> cosmodad: not the plugin, java 6 JDK
[10:53] <DreamerHxC> I have an Acer Aspire 1691 with Inte pro 2200 wireless card. I have Edgy eft and I'm currently connected to my wireless but it's not woking, and it's properly configured. Can you please help me?
[10:54] <dyrne> F0O: have you sudo apt-get install cpp g++ yet?
[10:54] <vox754> dooglus: eck well, Gedit is pretty, I want it for Windows, I just wish it could reload files easily.
[10:54] <cosmodad> beast_: that'd be one among sun-java6-*
[10:54] <bur[n] er> DreamerHxC, use network-manager?
[10:54] <cosmodad> beast_: btw I got it from edgy-backports
[10:54] <DreamerHxC> yes
[10:54] <Dusk_> eck: can you look at my grub menu list?? http://rafb.net/p/lTfTNb44.html
[10:54] <LjL> why not even just "sudo apt-get install build-essential", dyrne and f0o
[10:54] <beast_> cosmodad: ahh i use dapper
[10:54] <DreamerHxC> I used wifi-radar and I see I'm connected to my wireless, but it's not working
[10:54] <cosmodad> beast_: oh ok... different thing then
[10:54] <jgrau> hello. i need to use the nvidia driver. the drivers are installed, and when i turn them on without a restart I can use the 3d acceleration. But when I try to reboot after enabling the nvidia driver, X will not start before I set the driver back to nv. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
[10:55] <AsusM2N-MX> is there anyway to reset gnome panel from the command line?
[10:55] <andygraha> bruenic-that sudo command removed desktop, now I am removing Open Office writer,presentation etc...won't let me remove the database part
[10:55] <Dusk_> eck: oups this is the old one
[10:55] <mitrovarr> I'm having some kind of issue with grub - sometimes when it updates (for new kernels or whatnot) it breaks the the winxp install on the same computer
[10:55] <costaspapa> hello
[10:55] <Flannel> AsusM2N-MX: why do you need to do it from the command line?
[10:55] <costaspapa> everyone
[10:55] <Dusk_> eck: but also in debian i have the same problem
[10:55] <F0O> LjL, i did, when i first got ubuntu
[10:55] <costaspapa> i just installed ubuntu right now, after 12 years of Windows Xp slavery I AM Free now
[10:55] <AsusM2N-MX> i set the clock applet to use internet time and that messed up my one and only applet so i have no way to access anything from the gui
[10:55] <eck> vox754: look at how beautiful that is: http://eklitzke.org/files/Screenshot.png
[10:56] <eck> Dusk_: i will find a link for you
[10:56] <dooglus> vox754: I guess it depends what you find pretty.  I find all the GTK widgets in gedit to be ugly
[10:56] <Dusk_> eck: ok thanks a lot
[10:56] <costaspapa> can i get some help regarding sound cards?
[10:56] <Flannel> AsusM2N-MX: Why don't you?  Right click near the top or bottom of the screen, then "add panel" then right click the panel, and "add to panel" to add stuff.
[10:56] <ghetek> if i have my own graphic, what is the best way of puttiing my graphic at the grub boot menu?
[10:56] <AsusM2N-MX> ohh is that how u do it lol, thanks
[10:56] <costaspapa> i downloaded amarok but it seems i cant listen to any music,,
[10:56] <AsusM2N-MX> brb
[10:56] <vox754> eck, hey, not bad!
[10:56] <eck> Dusk_: read the part about drive mapping here http://www.novell.com/documentation/suse91/suselinux-adminguide/html/ch07s04.html
[10:57] <dyrne> costaspapa: you downloaded codecs for mp3 and such yet?
[10:57] <ghetek> !grub
[10:57] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[10:57] <costaspapa> yes i did
[10:57] <roachclit> Hey guys I downloaded Thunderbird and I don't know how to change the default application media program to VLC when opening up .wav files, can anyone help me?
[10:57] <costaspapa> the song plays
[10:57] <ghetek> !usplash
[10:57] <Dusk_> eck: ok let me have a look
[10:57] <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
[10:57] <costaspapa> also the video player plays the example ubuuntu video with sound ok
[10:57] <vox754> dooglus, do you prefer QT? KDE? I guess any modern toolkit is acceptable.
[10:57] <costaspapa> my sound card is them old ones creative 5.1 but im only using stereo
[10:57] <AsusM2N-MX> flammel: but what do i do abt that rogue panel that just doesnt display now?? how can i remove that invisible panel???
[10:57] <drraid> Is there some trick to using the quote key in ubuntu?  I just switched over from debian,.. am using us105 generic keyboard layout -- cant get single quotes to show up, when i hit the quote key nothing happens.. if i hit it twice i get 
[10:58] <drraid> is this common?
[10:58] <roachclit> Hey guys I downloaded Thunderbird and I don't know how to change the default application media program to VLC when opening up .wav files, can anyone help me?
[10:58] <dyrne> costaspapa: im not familiar with amarok but make sure alsa is selected for sound in preferences. then play the song and in  terminal type alsamixer and adjust volumes while song is playing. might just be that
[10:58] <Slick_> roachclit, you just right click on the file, goto properties and select which program you want under 'open with'
[10:58] <Flannel> drraid: sounds like your keyboard isn't a us105 keyboard
[10:58] <costaspapa> ok hold on let me try
[10:58] <drraid> Flannel: probably true, but it is standard and generic.
[10:59] <dyrne> costaspapa: i have seceral old sb cards and they always work
[10:59] <cosmodad> for anyone interested: I got java in FF working. There was a link missing like this: /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/libjavaplugin.so -> /etc/alternatives/firefox-javaplugin.so
[10:59] <vox754> eck, is that irssi? or what client is that?
[10:59] <Flannel> drraid: does it work in a tty?  (ctrl-alt-f1)
[10:59] <dyrne> F0O: gotta go i was just quoting from http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8602 if thats any help
[11:00] <eck> vox754: yes
[11:00] <AsusM2N-MX> how do i get back to the gui once ive done ctrl-alt-f2 to get a console?
[11:00] <cosmodad> AsusM2N-MX: try ctrl-alt-f{678}
[11:00] <costaspapa> Dyrne  IN my volume control i 3 choices and i can hear the TEST tone on SB LIVE ....(aslsa mixer)  is this what u mean?
[11:00] <andygraha> thanks everyone...I have to go rest...will try some more another time...
[11:00] <odix> just installed telnet via synaptics...how do i start it ? inetd restart does not work
[11:00] <AsusM2N-MX> irssi is great! im slowly changing to all console applications
[11:00] <Flannel> AsusM2N-MX: ctrl-alt-f7
[11:00] <eck> vox754: i think the madcow theme
[11:00] <AsusM2N-MX> thks
[11:00] <beast_> how come when i run cd /home/beast/desktop it gives me a directory not found error?
[11:00] <cosmodad> odix: why in the world would you want to run telnet?
[11:00] <ep2011> Okay, I just redownloaded it, and the md5 sum is right, but so is the old one
[11:00] <Flannel> beast_: because it's Desktop not desktop
[11:00] <drraid> Flannel: it semi-works in a tty.. the quote wont show up until i input a second character, but it does show up once i do
[11:00] <ep2011> ill just check the disk for errors I guess, it should be working..
[11:00] <odix> cosmo, i got ssh to, just want to try something
[11:00] <tiago_deliberali> someone here uses tablet pc?! : )
[11:01] <drraid> Flannel: if ic ould get tghat in X i would be happy
[11:01] <cosmodad> odix: is there no telnetd?
[11:01] <odix> thats what i installed
[11:01] <odix> command not found
[11:01] <cosmodad> odix: I wouldn't recommend running telnet from inetd
[11:01] <AsusM2N-MX> Flannel: i dont get an option to add panel if i go to the edges of the screen?
[11:01] <cosmodad> odix: suppose you need inetutils-telnetd
[11:01] <carlosleal> hey guys how do i install XGL Compiz in Acer Aspire 5002
[11:02] <carlosleal> ??????????/
[11:02] <cosmodad> odix: that's a package
[11:02] <Flannel> AsusM2N-MX: bottom and top edges.
[11:02] <carlosleal> please some help
[11:02] <carlosleal> im new
[11:02] <Flannel> carlosleal: #ubuntu-effects for Compiz support
[11:02] <costaspapa> Dyrne  in the terminal it shows me the other card
[11:02] <costaspapa> not SBlive
[11:02] <carlosleal> thanks
[11:02] <cosmodad> odix: but don't blame me if ppl hack you and delete your pr0n collection ok? :)
[11:02] <drraid> Flannel: is this an X-related issue?
[11:02] <Dusk_> eck: i read the 7.4.2. The File device.map section...do i need do change device.map file index?
[11:02] <beast_> ok now how come when i run "chmod +x jdk-6_<version>-linux-i586.bin" it gives me a file or directory not found error?
[11:02] <eck> Dusk_: if it is not correct
[11:03] <AsusM2N-MX> Flannel: yes thats what i did nothing
[11:03] <odix> k ;] 
[11:03] <cosmodad> odix: there's also a package called "telnetd"
[11:03] <Flannel> drraid: I... don't image so.  It could be.  But I'd still put the blame on keyboards
[11:03] <eck> Dusk_: check your actual hard drives against the device.map file
[11:03] <cosmodad> odix: maybe you wanna use the stand-alone daemon instead of inetd...
[11:03] <drraid> okay
[11:03] <cosmodad> odix: seems safer to me
[11:03] <drraid> ill fuzz it for a bit with other keyboards.. see where it goes ;] 
[11:03] <drraid> thanks for the hlp
[11:03] <vox754> eck, should I spend some time learning vim? What can be bad about it?
[11:03] <Flannel> beast_: why are you doing that?
[11:03] <bruenig> what is the difference between 2> and >
[11:03] <Dusk_> eck: they're true but if i change lines does that mean something??
[11:03] <Flannel> bruenig: append or not
[11:04] <cosmodad> vox754: nuffin'
[11:04] <Dusk_> eck: i have 2 hdds it's tru
[11:04] <eck> vox754: it is kind of difficult to learn, that is it
[11:04] <bruenig> so >> is the same as 2>
[11:04] <Flannel> beast_: java6 is in the repositories
[11:04] <odix> telnetd still gives me command not found ;\
[11:04] <odix> synpatics isntalled it
[11:04] <beast_> are you srerious
[11:04] <Flannel> beast_: oh, you literally mean 2>  I dont know
[11:04] <eck> Dusk_: try switching the drives in that file and reinstalling grub
[11:04] <Dusk_> ok
[11:04] <beast_> what is it under in synaptics
[11:04] <Flannel> beast_: in -backports, yeah
[11:04] <Dusk_> eck: thanks
[11:04] <vox754> cosmodad, elaborate please.
[11:04] <etchris> !nvidia
[11:04] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:04] <Dusk_> eck:  let me try
[11:04] <Flannel> beast_: http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=sun-java&searchon=names&subword=1&version=dapper-backports&release=all
[11:04] <XelHa> I have a laptop who's native resolution isn't properly detected din Edgy and Feisty. Where can I report this?
[11:04] <bruenig> it looks like 2> will redirect and print to stdout
[11:05] <bruenig> but I am not sure if that is all it does
[11:05] <eck> it sort of depends, if you are a programming you really ought to be using vim (or emacs)
[11:05] <eck> vi for sysadmins :-)
[11:05] <costaspapa>  can someone help me with some audio issues?
[11:05] <funkyHat> My friend has a linksys WUSB11, and we think his version has the prism 2.5 chipset... which appears to run on the linux-wlan-ng drivers... are they included in the edgy install CD?
[11:05] <cosmodad> vox754: http://chronos.cs.msu.su/vim/quotes.html
[11:05] <bafoc> eck: oh ya
[11:05] <DreamerHxC> damn
[11:05] <Flannel> beast_: Best thing to do is go to that site, manually download the packages you want (click on those names, scroll down, click on the "i386" link, and pick a mirror) then install them by hand (dpkg -i [package] ), instead of through a package manager
[11:05] <DreamerHxC> I have the same config for a wired connection and for the wifi connection but the wifi gets connected but it's not working
[11:06] <cosmodad> vox754: once you master vim, it's a killer app
[11:06] <beast_> Flannel: should i use that command for each one?
[11:06] <beast_> and does order matter?
[11:06] <vox754> For all of your programming discussion visit the brand new #ubuntu-programming
[11:06] <cosmodad> beast_: you can do "dpkg -i *.dpkg"
[11:07] <bruenig> apparently 2> redirects stderr and > redirects stdout
[11:07] <cosmodad> beast_: it'll resolve installation order by itself
[11:07] <Flannel> beast_: order matters only if they depend on each other
[11:07] <beast_> ok
[11:07] <beast_> thanks
[11:07] <Koolpop0> help
[11:07] <F0O> fockn niggaz
[11:07] <Koolpop0> wut is ubuntu specific file name?
[11:07] <cosmodad> beast_: hold on... did you see those dapper backports of java6?
[11:07] <Kronuz> hey, in nautilus, is there an easy way to copy the address of the current folder?
[11:07] <F0O> hey
[11:08] <F0O> LjL is a black whore?
[11:08] <Kronuz> also, is there a way to "jump" to the address textbox (as to start writting a new address right away)?
[11:08] <cosmodad> beast_: I didn't catch the entire thread but why would you not install through the package manager?
[11:08] <F0O> wow
[11:08] <F0O> i didnt know that
[11:08] <beast_> cosmodad: yeah i'm looking right now but some of the dependencies aren't there
[11:08] <beast_> you mean synaptic right? it's not listed there
[11:08] <cosmodad> beast_: if it's a backport they should all be in place
[11:09] <cosmodad> beast_: you need to add the dapper-backports repository -- you did that, didn't you?
[11:09] <mates> hi there, I've got a problem installing Edgy on notebook HP nx6310, I try to boot live cd, then i see some errors with broadcom wifi driver, then starts gnome, but is very slow and I cannot launch desktop icon "Install". Any suggestions?
[11:09] <vox754> cosmodad, comments on vim are always overwhelming, like laugh at non-vim users,... I mean, how can a new user not feel terrified?
[11:09] <beast_> how?
[11:09] <Flannel> cosmodad, beast_, we're doing it without adding the backports repository, since it's not necessarily a good idea
[11:09] <cosmodad> Flannel: why not?
[11:09] <etchris> !nvidia
[11:09] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:10] <Megaqwerty> can anyone help me install gmpy
[11:10] <Megaqwerty> ?
[11:10] <beast_> Flannel: the first 4 dependencied aren't available
[11:10] <cosmodad> vox754: I've spent the last 3 days a lot of time in #vim, haven't met a single guy laughing at me
[11:10] <daedra> anyone recommend some books to start with concerning linux?
[11:10] <daedra> i've bought "running linux" by matt welsh
[11:10] <cosmodad> vox754: if you're looking for trolls, it's never hard to find some :)
[11:10] <Flannel> cosmodad: because you might not want the new versions of everything
[11:10] <hesemes_> can somebody tell me how to run a fritzcard on edgy?
[11:10] <Flannel> beast_: Which ones?
[11:11] <cosmodad> Flannel: if you just install the packages you need and afterwards disable the rep, it will not install more than necessary
[11:11] <jinho> how do u check if 3D hardware rendering is enabled?
[11:11] <ardchoille> daedra: Books are good, but to be honest, most of the stuff I have learned was learned by sitting in this channel and the ubuntu forums.
[11:11] <eck> jinho: glxinfo | head
[11:11] <Megaqwerty> jinho: run glxgears
[11:11] <beast_> Flannel: debconf (>= 0.5), or debconf-2.0, java-common (>= 0.24), locales
[11:11] <eck> look for the direct rendering bit
[11:11] <TwinX> daedra:  linux for dummies or something like that :)
[11:11] <Megaqwerty> jinho: or glxinfo | grep direct
[11:11] <ep2011> Hey, if my ubuntu cd has 6 errors when checking, but the md5 is right, should I reburn with low speed like 2x?
[11:11] <Flannel> beast_: and you're on dapper?
[11:12] <cosmodad> Megaqwerty, jinho: that alone is no indicator
[11:12] <Flannel> ep2011: yes
[11:12] <cosmodad> Megaqwerty, jinho: it'll work even if you use software rendering
[11:12] <daedra> ardchoille: how about when you want to configure your kernel on the same machine IRC is running
[11:12] <DreamerHxC> please, can someone help me to make my wifi work?
[11:12] <ep2011> Okay, so I figured out what was wrong
[11:12] <ep2011> thaks
[11:12] <ardchoille> daedra: As I said, books are good :)
[11:12] <beast_> Flannel: yes i ordered the Live cd 6.06 Dapper Drake because they said they had longterm support
[11:12] <jinho> Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[11:12] <jinho> Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual
[11:12] <jinho> (what does this mean?)
[11:12] <ep2011> and does anyone have a guide with installing duelboot with seperate /home directory?
[11:13] <daedra> ardchoille: the question is, which ones are better?
[11:13] <ebel> cosmodad Megaqwerty, jinho, but it'll give you some idea of speed. If it's about 400 FPS then it's probably software
[11:13] <Megaqwerty> cosmodad: oh, well...my second suggestion should tell him if direct rendering is enabled
[11:13] <cosmodad> ebel: those numbers can really be irritating
[11:13] <jinho> i keep getting :
[11:13] <jinho> Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[11:13] <jinho> Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual
[11:13] <vox754> cosmodad, then I guess I'll give it a shot... another time. Anything to say about emacs? I heard of emacs before knowing vim so I thought emacs was good, but now I'm not sure.
[11:13] <cosmodad> ebel: but it looks like you don't have 3D on
[11:14] <jinho> when i tried ur suggestions
[11:14] <Flannel> beast_: that's fine.  Just making sure you're on dapper and not anything else
[11:14] <cosmodad> vox754: it's a complete matter of taste
[11:14] <cosmodad> vox754: some people prefer emacs, some vi
[11:14] <Flannel> beast_: Oh, you're talking about on that page?  it says they'r enot available?
[11:14] <cosmodad> vox754: it's in your genes, you'll have to try for yourself
[11:14] <beast_> Flannel: yes
[11:14] <Megaqwerty> jinho: did my second command help?
[11:15] <Flannel> beast_: that's because the "backports" repositories aren't complete.  So, dapper-backports, for instance, doesn't contain any debconf, but "dapper" does.
[11:15] <jinho> Megaqwerty: I keep getting the errors I put up
[11:15] <jinho> xlib isnt happy
[11:15] <uproot> how can i find out what graphics card i have ?
[11:15] <Flannel> beast_: dapper-backports only contains a few thigs (like flash9, java6, etc) and then the rest of the stuff those packages rely on, come out of the normal install
[11:15] <cosmodad> vox754: I myself tried emacs a bunch of years ago but didn't like it. but that's just my very personal 2 cents
[11:15] <eck> uproot: usually it is output in lspci
[11:15] <Megaqwerty> hmm
[11:16] <eck> or maybe in the system > preferences > hardware information thing
[11:16] <etchris> What would the command be to run something as aoss?
[11:16] <jinho> anyone know what
[11:16] <jinho> Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[11:16] <jinho> Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual
[11:16] <cosmodad> ebel: to determine wheter 3D is, it's better to check the Xorg log output in /var/log
[11:16] <jinho> means?
[11:16] <eck> as that user? use su/sudo
[11:17] <uproot> im having trouble with beryl. i got it installed but everytime i try run it its saying something about GLX
[11:17] <cosmodad> ebel: it'll tell you whether 3D was successfully enabled during X startup
[11:17] <Flannel> uproot: #ubuntu-effects for beryl support, thanks
[11:17] <Megaqwerty> jinho: k, I think I got it
[11:17] <ep2011> What are people's opinions of installing the /home directory seperate vs not doing that?
[11:17] <uproot> Flannel, thanks =)
[11:17] <atlantia> hrrm getting resierfs error when fsck is running, suggests using --rebuild-tree, btu i can still boot form and use the partition, any advcie?
[11:17] <Megaqwerty> jinho: you are using an nvidia card correct?
[11:17] <atlantia> advice*
[11:18] <jinho> Megaqwerty: yeah 6800gt
[11:18] <linux1> hiya ppl anyone here good at setting up wifi as im not :(         (well so far im not)
[11:18] <atlantia> ep2011, i had a box where i used fat32 as my home partition and shared it between windows and linux... seeing as how i hate fat32, i stopped doing that though
[11:18] <Megaqwerty> jinho: can you pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file?
[11:18] <costaspapa> ok.
[11:18] <hejsa> When i installed apache2 from the repositories it had no httpd.conf file, how do i get this quite important file :D ?
[11:18] <costaspapa> can someone help me with my audio ?
[11:18] <jinho> Megaqwerty: k one sec
[11:18] <IndyGunFreak> !someone
[11:18] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[11:18] <costaspapa> in the terminal my alsamixer is not the soundcard that i am using
[11:19] <etchris> Is there a command known as aoss? To make Teamspeak, support dual audio ouputs?
[11:19] <Flannel> hejsa: you don't.  Apache2 doesn't use httpd.conf, it uses a comglomeration of other config files, which allow for a ton of modulability and flexibility
[11:19] <Megaqwerty> can someone help me install gmpy?
[11:19] <atlantia> furthermore, the fsck program is very stupid as to what it reports, /var/log/fsck log only shows the same thing as the error, i still have no clue what partition is corrupt
[11:19] <ep2011> atlantia - do you still have your /home seperate? just a different format?
[11:19] <Flannel> etchris: you might check the forums (ubuntuforums.org), they have a few tutorials on how to get ET and Teamspeak working together
[11:19] <costaspapa> and  i cannot hear audio from amarok but can hear audio from Totem
[11:19] <etchris> Flannel, Thanks :)
[11:19] <atlantia> ep2011, not on this install, but as far as doing it, it doesn't hurt, you can even symlink the home dir to a new partition if you want
[11:19] <Lord_Illidan> xine works?
[11:20] <hejsa> Flannel: Damn, then i have no idea why my apache isn't working
[11:20] <Flannel> hejsa: what's it doing?
[11:21] <atlantia> nm figured out my problem, fsck was trying to check an ntfs partition.. >.<
[11:21] <kingcobra> can somebody tell me how to remove a wireless lan card device from ubuntu desktop version
[11:21] <jinho> Megaqwerty: http://rafb.net/p/A0Y3as18.html
[11:22] <eck> to remove the device? you mean remove the device node???
[11:22] <kingcobra> what do you mean node
[11:22] <jinho> ah lemme guess...im an idiot- i forgot to replace 'nv'
[11:22] <hejsa> Flannel: First i thought php just didn't work, but then i found out that apache1.3 was the one being used... and then i tried to remove it and now i got no webserver answering on port 80...
[11:22] <eck> kingcobra: ok, i guess not. what do you mean by remove the device?
[11:22] <hejsa> Flannel: And the apache2 server doesn't seems to start
[11:22] <Megaqwerty> jinho: yeah
[11:23] <jinho> Megaqwerty: if change nv to nvglx is that it?
[11:23] <Megaqwerty> jinho: no
[11:23] <kingcobra> eck i have 2 wireless devices listed in networking and neither of them work my device at all so i want to remove them
[11:23] <Flannel> hejsa: are you sure apache(1) isn't still running?
[11:23] <Flannel> hejsa: what error does Apache2 give you?
[11:23] <Megaqwerty> jinho: change it to 'nvidia' (no quotes)
[11:23] <uproot> where do i go for beryl help Flannel ? sorry xchat closed
[11:23] <Flannel> uproot: #ubuntu-effects
[11:23] <jinho> Megaqwerty: o ok
[11:23] <uproot> thank you
[11:23] <jinho> Megaqwerty: anything else?
[11:23] <eck> kingcobra: i would just leave them. if you really don't want to see them, blacklist the kernel modules in your udev scripts
[11:24] <Megaqwerty> jinho: I'll double check the conf file...
[11:24] <hejsa> Flannel: apache2: Syntax error on line 189 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Could not open configuration file /etc/apache2/httpd.conf: No such file or directory
[11:24] <Megaqwerty> jinho: nope, looks good to me
[11:24] <vox754> cosmodad, scary quotes about vim you gave me... still, I'll try it. I'm sure I can find about 2 million tutorials somewhere.
[11:24] <eck> exit
[11:24] <kingcobra> eck ok can u tel me how to add my device ralink rt73
[11:24] <Flannel> hejsa: Alright.  Sounds like you've got config file issues then.  Why don't you go ahead and pastebin your apache2.conf
[11:24] <etchris> How do i use the aoss command to start a program?
[11:25] <jinho> Megaqwerty: http://rafb.net/p/Dn2T1Z87.html
[11:25] <Megaqwerty> jinho: make the changes then restart X, and if worse comes to worse and your x server doesn't start just ctrl+alt+f1 into a terminal and switch it back
[11:25] <kingcobra> eck http://www.ralinktech.com/ralink/Home/Support/Linux.html
[11:25] <kingcobra> eck i hav this driver but i cant get it working
[11:25] <Megaqwerty> jinho: looks good :)
[11:25] <Flannel> hejsa: oh, and pastebin httpd.conf as well
[11:25] <kingcobra> eck i had it working on a previous install
[11:25] <eck> kingcobra: i am not familiar with that driver -- have you tried searching the forums?
[11:25] <hejsa> Flannel: As i said i have no httpd.conf
[11:26] <jinho> Megaqwerty: cool thanks!
[11:26] <kingcobra> yeah ive tried 2 r 3 difrent guides
[11:26] <Flannel> hejsa: Eh?  Did you delete it?  You should have one, even if it's entirely comments.
[11:26] <Flannel> hejsa: you're on dapper or edgy?
[11:26] <kingcobra> problems with all of them
[11:26] <Megaqwerty> jinho: happy to oblige!
[11:26] <Bob-o> Ubuntu is deleting random files each 5 minutes
[11:27] <Bob-o> I don't know what is wrong
[11:27] <robbie_crash> what do I need to change this to so that files get copied to /media/tempo instead of /media/tempo/var: $ sudo cp /var -r  /media/tempo
[11:27] <Flannel> Bob-o: `ps aux` will list the processes you have running, if you think it might be some malware
[11:27] <hejsa> Flannel: :S feisty, so i'm not relaying on this apache server to work, but it still would be nice to be able to use it
[11:27] <etchris> How do i use the aoss command to start a program?
[11:28] <Stormx2> etchris: aoss <app>
[11:28] <Stormx2> etchris: e.g. aoss firefox
[11:28] <Flannel> hejsa: Oh.  Feisty.  Well, it's entirely possible that feisty's apache is broken currently.  You might ask in #ubuntu+1.
[11:28] <Bob-o> I tried..But each time I do ps aux it deletes what it shows
[11:28] <eck> i am using apache in feisty right now without any problems (works for me, i guess you could say)
[11:28] <Flannel> hejsa: anyway, do this: purge apache2-common, reinstall it.  Then pastebin your apache2.conf (and reaffirm that httpd.conf doesn't exists)
[11:28] <eck> what is the issue?
[11:28] <afief> How do i chose on which version of GCC to compile a program with? 4.1 is default but I need 3.9
[11:28] <Stormx2> Speaking of which, why can't two apps write to alsa at the same time? Surely thats the point of a mixer? One thing ubuntu really falls down on is this...
[11:29] <Helmont> Hey, I jsut got a Linksys WUSB54G Ver. 4 Wireless G USB 2.0 which works straight out of the box, but what am i supposed to type in the terminal to get it to work?
[11:29] <Stormx2> Helmont: I thought it works straight out the box?
[11:29] <eck> afief: change your $CC or invoke gcc with the full path of the other version
[11:29] <Bob-o> I really need to fix this...I have 3yrs of work on this computer
[11:29] <etchris> Stormx2, Well im trying to do it for teamspeak, which is in home/chris/programs/teamspeak/ so what is the command mate?
[11:29] <eck> probably something like gcc-3.9
[11:29] <robbie_crash> what do I need to change this to so that files get copied to /media/tempo instead of /media/tempo/var: $ sudo cp /var -r  /media/tempo
[11:30] <eck> Bob-o: what do you mean it deletes what it shows?
[11:30] <Helmont> Stormx2: Well, obviously its not like I hook it up and it works, I need to enter a wep key and stuff, isn't there a command and stuff?
[11:30] <Stormx2> etchris: Well, whats the executable? Isn't it "TeamSpeak" or "Teamspeak" or something? I'm pretty sure its got capital letters...
[11:30] <dooglus> etchris: that game me a weird feeling - you mentioned my home directory /home/chris.  I didn't realise anyone else would use that same path :)
[11:30] <Bob-o> I see the process's and it wipes them out of sight
[11:30] <Stormx2> Helmont: You can do it from System > Administration > Networking ... not sure about a command
[11:31] <eck> Bob-o: redirect it to a file?
[11:31] <Flannel> Bob-o: ps aux | less
[11:31] <etchris> dooglus, hehe :)
[11:31] <Bob-o> Didn't work
[11:31] <bernard1> Storm, do i do it in hexadecimal?
[11:31] <etchris> dooglus, there are more chris' in the world than you :P:
[11:31] <bernard1> for the wep key?
[11:31] <Flannel> Bob-o: ps aux > process.txt then view that file
[11:31] <Stormx2> bernard1: Yeah think so...
[11:31] <dooglus> etchris: yes, but they usually get /home/chris2 and /home/chris3...
[11:32] <bernard1> I'm gonna go play around with it, but i was SURE there was some sudo something something command
[11:32] <Bob-o> Gah..It just removed that from sight as well..
[11:32] <Stormx2> bernard1: I didn't have to do that for setting up my card
[11:32] <etchris> dooglus, ohhh okay :)
[11:32] <bernard1> Ok
[11:32] <perverted> hi friends, i have a machine with 2 NICs, eth0 / eth1, i want to run an eggdrop that uses one device each so they have diff ips. how would i accomplish this with my setup? i run ubuntu 2.6.15
[11:32] <Bob-o> A file just appeared saying "Nice try"
[11:33] <eck> Bob-o: boot into single user mode with the filesystem mounted read-only and figure out what is going on
[11:33] <eck> there should be an option in grub
[11:33] <Flannel> Bob-o: sounds like you've been rooted and have some fun malware
[11:33] <Bob-o> That was the first thing I did
[11:33] <Stormx2> Bob-o: Uh oh...
[11:33] <eck> Bob-o: also, get chrkrootkit and rkhunter
[11:33] <Bob-o> It did the exact same thing
[11:34] <eck> Bob-o: but before you can fix it you will need to go into single user mode
[11:34] <Flannel> Bob-o: liveCD
[11:34] <eck> or live cd
[11:34] <Bob-o> I did
[11:34] <Bob-o> Shows something like "haha nice try", and etc..
[11:34] <eck> when you do what?
[11:34] <enyc> perverted: you do not need 2 ethernet cards to have separetp ip addresses...
[11:34] <kingcobra> does anybody know how to get a ralink rt73 wlan device working
[11:35] <Bob-o> Single user mode
[11:35] <perverted> thats the way its setup
[11:35] <Flannel> Bob-o: live CD
[11:35] <perverted> two separate internet connections
[11:35] <eck> Bob-o: you can also change init
[11:35] <eck> Bob-o: e.g. pass init=/bin/bash
[11:35] <enyc> perverted: aah well you have 2 problems then ;-)
[11:35] <eck> on the kernel line i mean
[11:35] <sree> hi
[11:35] <enyc> perverted: you first need the relevant routing setup right...
[11:35] <etchris> Stormx2, That didnt work mate, sure i dont need to point it to the path of the files or out?
[11:35] <Bob-o> That didn't work
[11:35] <Bob-o> It just showed "lol"
[11:36] <sree> How to watch streaming tv sites that use sopcast webplayer ?
[11:36] <eck> Bob-o: well you gave yourself away
[11:36] <enyc> perverted: and depending how that has been done, you amy need to get eggdrop to set specific ip address on its socket..
[11:36] <jinho> I installed the nvidia drivers (from the website) but when I change the xorg.conf file so that it says "nvidia" rather than "nv" xserver wont start up
[11:36] <Stormx2> etchris: Like I said, no. How do you normally launch TeamSpeak (without using aoss) ?
[11:36] <Bob-o> I havn't downloaded anything for a long time though
[11:36] <ntze> anyone figured out how let a broadcom chip based wlan work with kismet?
[11:36] <Bob-o> there must be something to fix it.
[11:36] <etchris> ermmmm by going into the directory and opening it
[11:37] <lisapc> how can I edit mpeg movies?
[11:37] <Bob-o> Each 5 minutes is critical..
[11:37] <perverted> enyc: yeah after some hours of research ive concluded that routing certain ips to each NIC is probably the best/easiest way to go
[11:37] <enyc> perverted: basically you can only have one "default gateway" in the IP routing table.....  you could add a route to specific IP address of a server via the gateway of a particular address...
[11:37] <eck> Bob-o: clearly you are lieing -- if you couldn't boot with that as the init script you couldn't even run a shell
[11:37] <cfactor> Anyone know how to reconfigure whether your hardware time is set to UTC or not?

[11:41] <ep2011> any suggestions on programs?
[11:41] <Stormx2> etchris: Well if you haven't installed it with sudo, then run aoss /path/to/executable
[11:41] <jinho> Stormx2: even though I did install the drivers from the site, and it didnt complain to me once when installing...
[11:41] <eck> afief: i already told you -- install the other gcc version and run gcc-3.9
[11:41] <eck> or whatever the binary is called
[11:41] <LjL> afief: type "export CC=gcc-3.9" and "export CXX=gcc-3.9" before compiling

[11:41] <nephish_> hey guys, what does nil.klass mean ?
[11:41] <somniis> ep2011: try IsoRecorder (google it)
[11:41] <LjL> sree: err... that you can just download the Linux version of the player and run it?
[11:41] <Fizzbane> Hello i have amarok installed on kubuntu edgy with a soundblaster audigy SE 7.1 with logictech 5.1 speakers. How do i set up my surround sound through my sound card? I already get some sound out of them.
[11:41] <beast_> Flannel: "command not found"
[11:41] <LjL> sree: http://www.sopcast.org/download/
[11:42] <ep2011> oaky ill try that
[11:42] <ep2011> brb
[11:42] <ep2011> dinner
[11:42] <ep2011> ill try that later, thank you
[11:42] <LjL> afief: if you did a "configure" before, without those variables set, wipe the directory clean, extract the tarball again, and try again
[11:42] <sree> LjL, thats fine... I managed to do that.. however some sites have these streaming video that need browser to have sopcast webplayer
[11:42] <Flannel> beast_: which packages did you install?
[11:42] <jinho> Stormx2: any ideas?
[11:42] <LjL> sree: that i don't think is available
[11:42] <etchris> Stormx2, get cant find command aoss?
[11:43] <sree> LjL, :(
[11:43] <cfactor> FYI, answer to my UTC question is in /etc/default/rcS
[11:43] <Stormx2> etchris: have you install alsa-oss ?
[11:43] <etchris> Nope :)
[11:43] <LjL> afief: btw, where did you even *get* gcc 3.9? i only have 3.4 and 3.5 (besides 4.x) in the repositories
[11:43] <beast_> Flannel: debconf , libc6,  unixodbc, sun-java6-jre
[11:44] <Stormx2> jinho: None, I'm afraid. Do you have a particularly old/new card?
[11:44] <Death_Sargent> my wifi stoped working after I tried to connect with WIFI-Radar
[11:44] <Zenerek> hey guys i modem question, I got dapper installed and my modem works and all but it drops the connection often
[11:44] <Death_Sargent> I hit disconect and that was the last i saw of it
[11:44] <DisabledDuck> does anyone know of a good Python IDE?
[11:44] <Flannel> beast_: I believe you also need sun-java6-bin
[11:44] <afief> LjL, I did. well actually the 3.9 was a typo i needed 2.95 and installed, exported 2.95, but it's still not working
[11:44] <Death_Sargent> the default ubuntu system calims im disconected
[11:44] <jinho> Stormx2: 6800gt
[11:44] <Flannel> beast_: and then, since you want the jdk, -jdk as well
[11:44] <_nano_> is there a way to boot into an existing ubuntu partition using alternate install CD?
[11:44] <Stormx2> jinho: That means nothing to me. Ask on the forums perhaps?
[11:45] <afief> LjL what i'm trying to do is compiling a chinese chess game called xiangqi
[11:45] <LjL> afief: link to the tarball please
[11:45] <jinho> does anyone here have a nvidia 6800 gt- and has installed the nvidia drivers and has the patience to help me?
[11:46] <afief> LjL: http://user.it.uu.se/~johannd/projects/xiangqi++/xiangqi.tgz
[11:46] <wyndblade> !envy | jinho
[11:46] <ubotu> jinho: envy is a Python script that eases installation of the official Nvidia and ATI drivers. Please see http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html . Developers may be interested in https://launchpad.net/products/envy - See also !Nvidia
[11:46] <jinho> ubotu: I've tried it to no avail
[11:47] <zerogt86> anyone have any luck setting up nvidia soundstorm with kernal 2.6.17-11?
[11:47] <jinho> whoops
[11:47] <wyndblade> jinho: even manual installation?
[11:47] <jinho> wyndblade: yeah I just tried manual installation and it goes w/o a hitch until i try modifying xorg.conf
[11:47] <wyndblade> jinho: I personally let it do the inital xorg.conf, then I edited it
[11:47] <jinho> wyndblade: itll work when I have it as "nv" but the moment I change it to "nvidia" the system wont start up
[11:48] <r4nge> hmm, i wanted to remove "atd" but aptitude gives me a warning that ubuntu-standard 1.3 depends on it, so i have to keep it on?
[11:48] <wyndblade> jinho: I'd try and let it autoconfig x for you, then just edit it later
[11:48] <finalbeta> Anyone can recommend me a GUI ftp client that supports AUTH TLS and ident server
[11:48] <eck> r4nge: why do you want to remove atd?
[11:48] <jinho> wyndblade: I did that too...man I'm so frustrated cuz its not like I'm using some weird card that no one's heard of, or some weird system...
[11:48] <eck> it is very useful :-)
[11:48] <beast_> Flannel: i used installed them but how do i make a new folder in usr/lib?
[11:48] <r4nge> figured cron can do pretty much anything i ened
[11:48] <Flannel> r4nge: ubuntu-standard is just a metapackage, you can safely remove it.  Make sure you install it again before you upgrade
[11:49] <beast_> Flannel: because that's where eclipse is looking for it but can't find it
[11:49] <eck> at and cron are for different things
[11:49] <wyndblade> jinho: that's odd.... you try going back a version on the nvidia drivers?
[11:49] <r4nge> and i read that atd isnt the most secure
[11:49] <eck> and i think at is part of lsb
[11:49] <ep2011> should I burn the ubuntu cd with a speed like 3x?
[11:49] <jinho> wyndblade: do u recommend any particular version? (Im not familiar w. the linux numbering of the drivers)
[11:49] <jrib> ep2011: yes
[11:49] <ep2011> okay
[11:49] <ep2011> thanks
[11:50] <Zenerek> well if anyone can give me some advice as to why my modem drops the connection so often (actual time varies) i'll be here waiting for a bit
[11:50] <wyndblade> jinho: I'd just hit up the nvidia linux forums and search
[11:50] <eck> r4nge: if something else depends on it (i doubt anything does) you could break things by removing it
[11:50] <eck> r4nge: but most people don't use it so you're probably safe
[11:50] <r4nge> yeah, lsb-core depends on it
[11:50] <eck> there you go -- i'd just keep it
[11:51] <beast_> Flannel: it installed and i'm looking at it. It's in usr/lib/jvm. Is it supposed to be there?
[11:51] <r4nge> will do
[11:51] <eck> it can be a pretty nifty tool too, i use it when i am doing remote work and am going to change something that could break my remote access
[11:51] <Flannel> eck, r4nge, if anything depends on it, it'll get reinstalled once you oinstall the thing that depends on it
[11:51] <LjL> afief: i only have gcc-3.4 and g++-3.4 available right now, but if i specify those exports (it's "export CC=gcc-3.4" and "export CXX=g++-3.4" by the way, i guess i got the CXX one wrong the other time), it does try to compile using 3.4 (it still fails, but)...
[11:51] <Flannel> beast_: no idea.  You installed eclipse from the repos?
[11:51] <sree> LjL, thanks for your help, appreciate
[11:51] <beast_> yes
[11:51] <LjL> afief: but you do need to set those variables before extracting the tarball
[11:51] <eck> Flannel: if it is part of LSB it could be the case that some other package actually uses it but the package maintainers didn't put it as a depends, which is what i would worry about
[11:51] <somniis> ep2011: slower speeds are usually better, it decreases the risk of a bad burn.  i used IsoRecorder on 10x to burn the iso (via http), and had no problems with it :)
[11:52] <afief> LjL, why before extracting?
[11:52] <LjL> afief: well, before running ./configure anyway
[11:52] <beast_> Flannel: then how do i make a new folder to move it into. It won't let me do it right now because i'm not root
[11:52] <Flannel> eck: shrug.  I see no real reason to remove it either, it's what, a couple of Kb?
[11:52] <afief> okay
[11:52] <Flannel> beast_: use sudo
[11:52] <LjL> afief: so if you have already extracted it, and have already run configure, you need to wipe and re-extract
[11:52] <LjL> afief: i suppose the first error you get is "error.H:31: error: expected class-name before '{' token"?
[11:52] <r4nge> eck: so you would have atd do something in the future in case what you were going to work on broke something
[11:52] <r4nge> ?
[11:52] <beast_> what command makes a new folder?
[11:53] <afief> LjL: correct
[11:53] <Flannel> beast_: but, you shouldn't have to do that.  You should be able to tell eclipse where it should be looking.  Or whatever.
[11:53] <Flannel> beast_: mkdir
[11:53] <[BTF] Chm0d> how do you zip something up in ubuntu or create a tar?
[11:53] <LjL> afief: check the third line of the output, if it just says "c++ -g -O2 .....", it's not using the custom GCC version, while if it says "g++-3.4 -g -O2 ...." (well, for me it 3.4, 2.95 for you) it's using the custom version (but failing anyway)
[11:53] <mand0> Open up the Archive Manager
[11:53] <LjL> [BTF] Chm0d: type  tar --help | grep cf 
[11:53] <mand0> Applications > Accessories
[11:53] <beast_> Flannel: eclipse doesn't even open though and java commands in the terminal don't work
[11:53] <[BTF] Chm0d> ty
[11:53] <eck> r4nge: for example, if i was going to change iptables, i would have an at job to restore the old settings in ten minutes, so if the new settings break something i can still get back to the box
[11:53] <Flannel> beast_: then you haven't installed java properly, it seems.
[11:54] <afief> LjL, nope says c++ -g -02
[11:54] <eck> r4nge: if everything goes smoothly you just remove the job from the queue
[11:54] <Flannel> !java | beast_, this URL might help
[11:54] <ubotu> beast_, this URL might help: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[11:54] <r4nge> sounds good
[11:54] <bulem> beast_ you have the correct java you expected?
[11:54] <Zenerek> yeah what mand0 said it handles rar and zip other archive types
[11:54] <LjL> afief: then i do think you didn't have the [right]  variables set before running configure... also, of course you do have g++-2.95 installed? gcc-2.95 alone is not enough
[11:54] <etchris> !nvidia
[11:54] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:55] <AndyCR> hi
[11:55] <afief> LjL: oops, not installed, sorry
[11:56] <beast_> bulem: yes I have java6 in a folder in usr/lib/jvm. but i can't run java command in terminal and eclipse won't open saying...
[11:56] <Andeh> Hey everybody?
[11:56] <AndyCR> where can i get the source code for the versions of the packages that come with, say, ubuntu edgy?
[11:56] <LjL> afief: ok, then install it and then do the *whole* thing again, including wiping the directory and extracing the tarball (or, well, "make distclean" might work, but only "might"). got to go now...
[11:56] <AndyCR> ie the code for the version of gedit that comes with edgy?
[11:56] <Andeh> I finally installed beryl! its awesome!
[11:56] <beast_> bulem: it's looking in /usr/lib/j2sdk1.4-sun/bin/java
[11:57] <somniis> Andeh: yes it is :)
[11:57] <afief> LjL, thanks a million for your help:) at least now i know how ubuntu decides about the compiler version to use
[11:57] <Andeh> :D
[11:57] <r4nge> is it normal to have quite a few of these "/usr/sbin/apache2 -k start -DSSL" showing up in my process when i have the hhtpd on?
[11:57] <Andeh> after trying 5 hours i found a script to do it for me rodl
[11:57] <Andeh> rofl*
[11:57] <zerogt86> can anyone help me with my nvidia soundstorm?
[11:58] <r4nge> 50+ of them
[11:58] <eck> r4nge: yeah, they're actually mostly sharing memory so they don't use as much ram as you would think
[11:58] <koolpop0> i restarted comp and nothing happned
[11:58] <sethk> r4nge, yes
[11:58] <sethk> r4nge, apache spawns multiple processes to handle multiple requests.  The number is configurable
[11:58] <sethk> r4nge, when you exceed some number of connections, another batch will start
[11:59] <r4nge> ok, just got worried because i just ahve the default apache page up and thought something my be fishy
[11:59] <linux1> hiya ppl still cant get my wifi to work i cant work out whats wrong    here all the info i have  http://www.pastebin.ca/398088
[11:59] <sethk> r4nge, >50 is much higher than is typical, but not necessarily a problem
[11:59] <r4nge> must be default because i didnt even touch the conf yet
[12:00] <sethk> r4nge, I haven't tried it on 6.1, my servers are on an earlier ubuntu release, or on other distros, so it's possible
[12:00] <AndyCR> nobody knows if there is some ftp server with the source on it?
[12:00] <beast_> who has java 6 here?
[12:00] <eck> AndyCR: you can get the source with apt-get source
[12:00] <sethk> AndyCR, several
[12:00] <eck> that is the easiest way
[12:00] <Zenerek> while i am here i have another question, i want to give another user dialup permission but i don't want to give admin type rights, is there a way to give to do this?
[12:01] <sethk> AndyCR, you mean "does anybody know".  "nobody knows" means that you are telling us that none of us know.
[12:01] <AndyCR> eck: thanks!!
