[12:01] <Zano> Radeon x1900xtx, Core2Duo, Asus p5b motherboard and a Seagata barracuda HDD, Burnt the Ubuntu ISO to a disk and booted from it, chose "Start or install Ubuntu" was treated with the loadingscreen, which stayed the same for five minutes, then froze.. What did I do wrong? I did a Md5 checksum on the ISO, no issue there.
[12:01] <jvai> lol.. word
[12:01] <__Lamont__> Skaag: lol.. yeah. I was hoping that I could just boot it - have new MB/CPU/RAM here, but BIOS isn't finding the OS
[12:01] <Pollywog> Jenn is this a laptop?
[12:01] <ubuntu> change cd rom?
[12:01] <hateyla> Frogzoo,  no one have fastest connection here..
[12:01] <Zenerek> hateyla order a cd
[12:02] <Zano> Ugh. I used up my last CD-r burning it. xD Crap. I'll have to try again tomorrow.
[12:02] <__Lamont__> Anyone now how to repair a bad / missing Bootloader?
[12:02] <Frogzoo> !grub > __Lamont__
[12:02] <ubuntu> don't bur on max speed
[12:02] <ubuntu> don't burn on max speed
[12:02] <Skaag> __Lamont__: just pop an ubuntu cd into the drive
[12:02] <hateyla> Zenerek,  from where ? ubuntu.com ?
[12:02] <Skaag> __Lamont__: and re-grub it
[12:02] <dougie> how do you add support for wma's?
[12:02] <Pollywog> the day Geeksquad supports Linux I think some of you have jobs there ;)
[12:02] <Zano> I didnt. I burned on 2.4x to make sure it would work Ubugtu.
[12:02] <Zano> *ubuntu
[12:03] <Skaag> Pollywog: they wouldn't be able to afford my salary though!
[12:03] <Noah0504> Eww, WMA is a nasty codec.
[12:03] <crdlb> dougie, are they DRM'ed ?
[12:03] <amayera> aloha
[12:03] <dougie> .....i don't think so
[12:03] <ubuntu> maybe cd drive  have error
[12:03] <Skaag> dougie: Is it Charles Asnavour?
[12:03] <crdlb> dougie, where'd you get them?
[12:03] <Zano> doubt it.. has worked fine for everything sofar.
[12:03] <__Lamont__> Frogzoo, Skaag: Thanks... I must have installed GRUB somewhere other than the MBR or something, new MB not seeing GRUB. Thanks, I'll try that
[12:03] <Skaag> dougie: Did you steal them with P2P???!!
[12:03] <dougie> bit torrent
[12:03] <Skaag> you bastard
[12:03] <Skaag> just kidding ;-)
[12:03] <dougie> nooo
[12:03] <dougie> lol
[12:03] <crdlb> lol
[12:03] <amayera> how is it planned as soon as the next LTS version comes out can I directly upgrade from dapper to LTS+1 or do I have to take all steps?
[12:04] <crdlb> dougie, you need to install w32codecs
[12:04] <Zano> well ill give up for today.
[12:04] <Skaag> amayera: directly upgrade
[12:04] <crdlb> I guess
[12:04] <Zenerek> not sure but i think so, I remember that they only charge for shipping and depending on where you are you may need to let you local post office know what you're getting
[12:04] <dougie> apt-get install w32codecs?
[12:04] <crdlb> dougie, I don't think it's in any of ubuntu's repos
[12:04] <amayera> Skaag: ok. good to hear. thanks.
[12:04] <Skaag> dougie: it's not as simple as that I think you need some non-free repositories added to your sources.list
[12:04] <ubuntu> my dvd drive won't boot suse linux, but second dvd drive works fine
[12:04] <Pollywog> dougie: but one needs to add medibuntu

[12:04] <ubotu> w32codecs: win32 binary codecs. In component extras, is optional. Version 1:20060611-0.0 (edgy-seveas), package size 13911 kB, installed size 33488 kB (Only available for i386)
[12:04] <Skaag> amayera: also it's the general policy to allow this kinda thing... i've been upgrading since 5.10 smoothly
[12:05] <dougie> ....wth does that mean
[12:05] <Pollywog> medibuntu to their sources.list
[12:05] <dougie> ok
[12:05] <Pollywog> to get the codecs
[12:05] <amayera> Skaag: yeah, sure from one release to another was never a problem, but skipping releases sure is.
[12:05] <cjlowe> GAH!!!! ifdown eth0 KILLED SSHD! I'M CONNECTED VIA ETH1!!! THIS IS IN ALL CAPITALS!!!111zlolz
[12:05] <Skaag> amayera: i've never tried skipping releases...

[12:06] <Frogzoo> cjlowe: maybe sshd binds to 0.0.0.0
[12:06] <harking> is there a guide to getting lm-sensors working in eft?
[12:06] <harking> i've tried the ubuntuguide.org one and it failed to work
[12:06] <cjlowe> Frogzoo, maybe, but that's no need to kill it :)
[12:07] <Marupa> where are the alsa libs located?
[12:07] <Pollywog> or else the sshd config is using a list of allowed logins
[12:07] <Pollywog> if there is even one login specified, all others are disallowed
[12:08] <dauoalagio1> hello, i "apt-get install apache2" and it installed correctly but i cannot connect to http://localhost and after a /etc/init.d/apache2 restart it says "apache2: Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName"

[12:11] <gasman> hi all
[12:12] <Ducky> is there anyone that can help me through the installation ?
[12:12] <thespore> are the repos going slow for anyone else?
[12:12] <MarcM> Ducky: is this a desktop install?
[12:12] <will> How can I set the  login scripts to default or reset Dbus-daemon or dbus-settings to default?
[12:12] <thespore> i'm getting like 15-25k
[12:12] <Ducky> Yes
[12:12] <Pyotr> dauoalagio1:  sudo: update-manager -c: command not found
[12:12] <MarcM> then, no, you shouldn't need anything from windows
[12:12] <dauoalagio1> pyotr, did you put quotation marks around update-manager -c
[12:12] <gasman> hi everyone
[12:12] <Ducky> 64 bit installation ?
[12:12] <Pyotr> yes
[12:13] <bacho> "c is not like windows its hd1
[12:13] <bacho> or hda
[12:13] <__Lamont__> Skaag: If it helps, I found one pic from that install of the partitions screen that showed hda and hdb as prim / slave, set as type "RAID" and then it showed RAID1 devices below it
[12:13] <cjlowe> regarding my post... nvm, i was connected via eth0... eth1 was the other network... :( whole network down!
[12:13] <Pollywog> thespore sometimes they do that, but use the IRI's for your area
[12:13] <dauoalagio1> pyotr, woops one second.
[12:13] <MarcM> although, if your planning to remove the xp partition, you should backup your files
[12:13] <__Lamont__> I don't know for sure if that's the attempt that worked or not :p
[12:13] <Pollywog> URI's
[12:13] <thespore> Pollywog, IRI?
[12:13] <Pollywog> URI
[12:13] <MarcM> Ducky: i don't typically recommend 64 bit
[12:13] <Pollywog> or URL's
[12:13] <thespore> Pollywog, okay I'm in US.. so archive.ubuntu.org?
[12:13] <hateyla> is anyhave dapper source.list file with all repos ? Universe, Restricted, multiverse and others? so plz pastebin it.

[12:16] <Ducky> < Technologyu
[12:16] <_seanc_> I have a question about manually setting resolutions and refresh rates.  I have a CRT monitor and I already set it up to allow me to use 1280x1024 but it defaults to 60 refresh and that gives me a terrible headache, how do I change the refresh?
[12:16] <Ducky> < Technology and typing
[12:16] <frenzy> can anyone hellp me with some networkign issues????
[12:16] <eternalswd> p47, this is not the place to ask about illegal torrents
[12:16] <bacho> seanc use xorg.conf
[12:16] <sethk> frenzy, ask, and you'll find out
[12:16] <thespore> Flannel, you talking about using synaptic?
[12:16] <_seanc_> bacho: I already used it to change the resolution, how do I change the refresh?
[12:17] <Flannel> thespore: eh?  Wait, alternate to what?  thought you meant alt. CD
[12:17] <frenzy> well im trying to share my net with one network card... how would i do it
[12:17] <Jenn> HELP - I am on the configuring xserver xorg menu. I don't know what is my -bit color setting for the monitor.
[12:17] <sethk> _seanc_, do dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg.  At the monitor section, choose the "middle" level of specification.  Then choose the resolution including the refresh
[12:17] <MarcM> Ducky: here an excellent installation walk-through, start to finish
[12:17] <MarcM> http://howtoforge.com/the_perfect_desktop_ubuntu6.10
[12:17] <Jenn> What do I pick?
[12:17] <p47> eternalswd, come one !
[12:17] <bacho> look for numbrers in 12*24*32 and change it i dont remember exactly
[12:17] <thespore> Flannel, apt repos

[12:17] <dougie> ...those medibuntu servers seem a bit slow
[12:18] <Marupa> Hey, uhm....I'm trying to install darkice with alsa support, but I can't figure out where to point the configuration, /usr and /usr/lib both seem to be missing the required libraries or something.
[12:18] <Jenn> what setting should I choose for for bit color?
[12:18] <bacho> hateyla open coy and pase :)
[12:18] <thespore> Flannel, the default repos or going slow.. was wondering about alternatives... trying us.archive.ubuntu.com instead of archive.ubuntu.com
[12:18] <awilcox> Marupa: /usr/local/lib?
[12:18] <frenzy> sethk: well im trying to share my net with one network card... how would i do it
[12:18] <Marupa> I'll try that
[12:18] <Sp4rKy> dougie: hmm ? what about medibuntu servers ?
[12:18] <sethk> frenzy, I'm not quite sure what you mean.  Be more specific
[12:18] <bacho> frebzy set your ubuntu as server maybe?
[12:19] <Marupa> awilcox, nada.
[12:19] <dougie> Sp4rKy: only downloading at like 15 kB/s
[12:19] <bimberi> hateyla: 'sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list' in a terminal.  THis runs the editor with superuser privs so you can modify it
[12:19] <twinrox> I am looking for a very good system administrator (Unix) Linux-HPUX from Canada willing to travel on a longterm mandate in the UK (1 or 2 years) in a formula 1 team. Very serious . 3-5 years experience with very good condition.
[12:19] <dougie> Sp4rKy: kind of slow lol
[12:19] <Sp4rKy> dougie: ohhh , not normal
[12:19] <Sp4rKy> dougie: do you know the ip ?
[12:19] <Ducky> is Ubuntu going to automatically locate the drivers for my components ?
[12:19] <bacho> twunrox is a spamer!
[12:19] <awilcox> twinrox: An F1 team?  Which one?
[12:19] <Flannel> MarcM Ducky: that's actually a rather poor place for Ubuntu howtos
[12:19] <thespore> Ducky, it will attempt to
[12:19] <dougie> Sp4rKy: got it off the webpage... medibuntu.sos-sts.com
[12:20] <awilcox> So does anybody else have any idea why Netscape will only run if it is as root?
[12:20] <eternalswd> bimberi and hateyla, gksu is preferred to sudo for gui apps
[12:20] <twinrox> awilcox : come in private only if you are interessested
[12:20] <Sp4rKy> dougie: no, i want the ip of your actual connec
[12:20] <dougie> oh
[12:20] <frenzy> sethk: there are 5 pcs in my house.. the net comes thru a d-link modem to a switch hub to me and then to everyone else.. at least on windows it was like that.. now im trying to do the same with ubuntu .. and i cant just use the modem as a router becaouse of loopback issues... my flatmates area addicted to warcraft and they cant play with each other on line with the modem being the router...
[12:20] <Sp4rKy> the ip of mediibuntu server of course dougie
[12:20] <awilcox> twinrox: I am in the US, and don't like to travel, so no.  But thanks for the offer.
[12:21] <Ducky> will i be able to play windows baised games (IE Run Steam, and Lineage 2 ?)
[12:21] <_seanc_> sethk: what was that command again, sorry :|
[12:21] <bimberi> eternalswd: yes, or gksudo
[12:21] <Zijan>     no
[12:21] <awilcox> Ducky: WineX may be able to do it.
[12:21] <sethk> _seanc_, do dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg.  At the monitor section, choose the "middle" level of specification.  Then choose the resolution including the refresh
[12:21] <_seanc_> thank you
[12:21] <dougie> Sp4rKy: 71.253.54.20
[12:21] <thespore> Ducky: check cedega as well
[12:21] <Sp4rKy> dougie: that's your ip i gues
[12:21] <sethk> frenzy, you said only one network card, though.  How is the modem connected?
[12:21] <Sp4rKy> dougie: not those of medibuntu serv
[12:21] <dougie> Sp4rKy: ??
[12:21] <Marupa> awilcox, Any ideas?
[12:22] <frenzy> the modem goes thru the switch then to me
[12:22] <dougie> Sp4rKy: ok how do i get the medi severs ip? lol
[12:22] <Sp4rKy> dougie:hmm, maybe a netstat :)
[12:22] <frenzy> sethk: the modem goes thru the switch then to me
[12:22] <awilcox> Netscape 7.02 comes up the profile manager...the create profile button won't let me create and the Start Netscape button gives me "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIProfileInternal.startApprunner] "
[12:22] <Sp4rKy> dougie: i've found you
[12:23] <awilcox> If I start Netscape 7.02 as root, it gives me no profile manager or errors, and just loads Netscape.
[12:23] <dougie> lol
[12:23] <Ducky> winehq this is what i need...correct ?
[12:23] <awilcox> I installed it as root, should I have installed it as a user?
[12:23] <sethk> frenzy, You have to set up a second, virtual address on your network card.
[12:23] <awilcox> Marupa: Sorry, I do not.
[12:23] <MarcM> Flannel: what site would you recommend for a noob walk-through?
[12:23] <MarcM> Ducky: no, not without some work anyhow. They do not play natively in Linux
[12:23] <frenzy> sethk: ... ok how??? kinda of a newb to the lunix world
[12:23] <Ducky> xD ok, ill keep looking.
[12:23] <sethk> frenzy, basically you set up a separate (virtual) subnet consisting of yourself and the router
[12:23] <Sp4rKy> dougie: the serv stats said you download at about 150kbps
[12:23] <thespore> Ducky, wine can run some win32 apps.. cedega is based on wine but optimized for games
[12:23] <hateyla> i cant order a free CD of edgy?
[12:23] <truvisionary> not yet
[12:24] <sethk> frenzy, if your card is eth0, you will normally have just one interface for it.  You can  create others, though, named eth0:1, eth0:2, etc.
[12:24] <truvisionary> you have to wait for Feisty to come out
[12:24] <hateyla> damn with my slow connection :<
[12:24] <hateyla> truvisionary,  ok.
[12:24] <dougie> Sp4rKy: hmm well i should actually be able to download at like 350 about.... but i'm still only downloading at like 15-25 on this server
[12:24] <sethk> frenzy, you don't have to use those names but it's the way it is usually done
[12:24] <bacho> hateyla supposely no but the ones i ordered are 6.10
[12:24] <frenzy> sethk: ... ok ... how ??? LOL
[12:24] <erichj> dapper is really nice though
[12:24] <rbil> hateyla: any linux users group close to you. someone would have a cd they can burn for you
[12:24] <Sp4rKy> dougie: really strange
[12:24] <sethk> frenzy, something like:    ifconfig eth0:1 <address> netmask <mask>
[12:24] <hateyla> rbil : right.
[12:25] <jva> where can i set a shortcut to toggle between two languages?
[12:25] <Mirth> Guys, I have a problem
[12:25] <sethk> frenzy, then you make your ubunto box the default destination for all the other boxes on the network, so you get their outgoing packets.
[12:25] <frenzy> sethk: and what adrress would that be
[12:25] <dougie> Sp4rKy: i did a netstat and half the info gets lost i guess its too long lol but i'm not sure which one is medi...
[12:25] <Sp4rKy> dougie: anyway, servers have some issue at this time
[12:25] <Ducky>  cedega 5.2.9 is the one i need..correct MarchM ?
[12:25] <truvisionary> where can I find a tutorial on how to install compiz?
[12:25] <Sp4rKy> dougie: you're on 88.191.42.241
[12:25] <hateyla> Where i can change my login screen setting?
[12:25] <dougie> oh
[12:25] <dougie> ok
[12:25] <Mirth> I have Vista and Ubuntu Dual Boot, and I overwritten the GRUB MBR and can't boot into Ubuntu now.  Is there any way to reinstall GRUB without reinstalling Ubuntu?
[12:25] <dougie> lol
[12:26] <MarcM> Ducky: not sure, i'm not much of a pc gamer
[12:26] <frenzy> sethk: i uderstand the concept but just dont know how to do it
[12:26] <dougie> hmm... well xmms still wont play wma file...
[12:26] <emss> Mirth you like vista more than ubuntu, or just use them for different purposes?
[12:26] <sethk> frenzy, typically, the router would have an ip something like 192.168.0.1.  So you can make your virtual address 192.168.0.2, and use a netmask of 255.255.255.0 for that subnet.  Then you create a separate subnet, by choosing addresses and masks for the other machines (and for your physical eth0) that are a separate subnet.
[12:26] <erichj> hateyla: system->admin->login window
[12:26] <jimmygoon> I want to set custom keyboard shortcuts - how can I - the gnome-keyboard-shortcuts only lets me change pre-existing shortcuts
[12:26] <sethk> frenzy, I'll see if I can spot a howto.  it's not hard to do, but it's a bit hard to explain
[12:26] <antidrugue> hi everyone, i simply can't boot latest Ubuntu Feisty daily-live build, or herd 5... the message "/bin/sh:can't access tty; job control turned off" appears after a few seconds
[12:26] <_seanc_> sethk: It's only giving me the option for 1280x1024 @ 60hz and that's killing me any way to manually force like 80hz?
[12:26] <frenzy> sethk: thx
[12:26] <Mirth> emss, I use them for different purposes (Need Windows for school)
[12:26] <globe> Can somebody point me to a tutorial where I can find out details about running multiple vnc sessions on one machine (kind of like terminal server on win2000)
[12:26] <Ducky> that's the whole reason i want to switch xD, cause i was told unbuntu uses less resources, and its also good for video editing...
[12:26] <jva> where can i set a shortcut to toggle between two languages?
[12:27] <puros_> http://ewizard.free.fr/?action=rubis&nom=puros
[12:27] <Sp4rKy> dougie: you can stop & re run you apt-get to get another server , but i'm not sure that will resolv the latency
[12:27] <rb007> My lower gnome-panel somehow has the partial image of a Web site imprinted on it.  It's still there even after a reboot.  So the lower gnome-panel has the text of a Web site overlaid on it.  It looks terrible.  Does anyone know how to fix it?
[12:27] <sethk> _seanc_, does it give you better refresh rates at lower resolutions?  If so, it thinks that's the highest your monitor can handle.  You may have to override it's automatically determined monitor choice.
[12:27] <Flannel> antidrugue: #ubuntu+1 for feisty support, thanks.
[12:27] <dougie> Sp4rKy: yeah its done now lol just took a long time... i think that music i was playing i got on windows edge or whatever that service is so it is drm'ed
[12:27] <hateyla> erichj,  thank. but i dont find the reboot n Shutdown option there :< Even in QUIT tab too.. there is just SwitchUser, log0ff, ScreenLock, Hibernate.. No reboot option and no shutdown option there.. any idea?
[12:27] <kyuuketsuki47> can anyone point me to the forum for beryl?
[12:27] <__Lamont__> !grub > Mirth
[12:27] <merc> im doing a dist upgrade (via update-manager -c -d), and it's stuck on 'configuring libgstreamer' step, what should i do? (or what is safe?)
[12:27] <emss> !beryl
[12:27] <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] <antidrugue> flannel : thanks a lot, didn't knew that
[12:27] <sethk> _seanc_, if you tell it to use, say, generic monitor capable of 1280x1024 @ 72 hz, then you'll be able to set 1280x1024@72hz
[12:28] <MarcM> Ducky: you can always install Ubuntu as a second OS and keep XP for games until you get them running on Linux
[12:28] <_seanc_> sethk: It does give me a better choice at say 1024x768, but when running windows 60hz is ok, but for some reason on ubuntu it gives me a terrible headache
[12:28] <kyuuketsuki47> !beryl
[12:28] <Sp4rKy> dougie: ::)
[12:28] <sethk> _seanc_, I get a headache running anything at 60 hz.
[12:28] <sethk> _seanc_, windows is no better for me.
[12:28] <puros_> http://ewizard.free.fr/?action=rubis&nom=puros
[12:28] <Noah0504> rb007: Are you sure it's not a burned image?
[12:28] <Mirth> __Lamont__, what is that?
[12:28] <sethk> _seanc_, the question is, _can_ the monitor do 1280x1024 at higher than 60?
[12:28] <rb007> Noah0504: what do you mean by "burned image"?
[12:28] <_seanc_> sethk: Don't know :|
[12:28] <jva> anyone??
[12:29] <cjlowe> why is admin not an allowed user name in the ubuntu installer anymore?
[12:29] <__Lamont__> Mirth - trying to get the bot to msg you
[12:29] <Mirth> Oh
[12:29] <__Lamont__> !grub
[12:29] <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
[12:29] <jva> where can i set a shortcut to toggle between two languages?
[12:29] <sethk> _seanc_, we can force the resolution, but if the monitor can't display it, forcing it won't help (obviously)
[12:29] <Mirth> Nice, thanks __Lamont__
[12:29] <eternalswd> frenzy, let me see if I understand your situation.  You have a dlink modem connected to a switch.  The switch is connected to your pc and the other pc's are supposed to connect through your machine to the switch to the router?
[12:29] <globe> jva there is a panel applet that will make a button to do this I think
[12:29] <Noah0504> rb007: Well, sometimes if a monitor was left on for too long, an image can "burn" into the screen.  I reall don't think that is the case.  Try moving the Gnome panel to another side of the screen and see what happens.
[12:29] <awilcox> Mirth: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[12:29] <frenzy> eternalswd: yup
[12:30] <_seanc_> sethk: Yeah, 1024x768 works at 85, but when I choose 1280x1024 only option is 60, so I guess that's what my monitor can handle, that sucks
[12:30] <__Lamont__> NP - I'm having similar issues - software RAID Ubuntu died (bad motherboard) and the new MB doesn't find the OS - think I just need to reinstall grub
[12:30] <jimmygoon> I want to set custom keyboard shortcuts - how can I - the gnome-keyboard-shortcuts only lets me change pre-existing shortcuts
[12:30] <_seanc_> cause I can't dig this huge icons :)
[12:30] <Jenn> Question -- In sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, it detects the wrong graphic card... the one I don't use anymore.
[12:30] <globe> jva rigth click on an empty space on a panel and click add to panel
[12:30] <Jenn> How can I fix that?
[12:30] <eternalswd> frenzy, how do the other pc's connect to your pc and you connect to the switch if you only have one port?
[12:30] <jva> globe:yes i know of the panel applet, but i want it as a kb shortcut
[12:30] <trond> Do anyone know if the drivers from the ATI pages are safe to install on Ubuntu edgy? Or should I go for the (older) driver in the repos?
[12:30] <Marupa> well!  I got darkice to compile, but I had to 'hack' it.  >.<
[12:30] <rb007> Noah0504: no... it's a laptop with screensaver.  The Web site text is embedded in gnome-panel -- it disappears if I hover over it on the "button" for each open window.
[12:30] <trond> Talking about the fglrx driver
[12:30] <sethk> _seanc_, yes, I agree.  You are sure it is as 60 hz in windows?
[12:30] <frenzy> eternalswd: thgey connect directly to the switch
[12:30] <_seanc_> sethk: I do believe so
[12:30] <_seanc_> sethk: How do I force it to use 72 for instance (Just to try)
[12:30] <sethk> _seanc_, then likely that's all it can do.
[12:31] <hateyla> i dont find the reboot n Shutdown option in GNOME and KDE too  :< Even in QUIT tab too.. there is just SwitchUser, log0ff, ScreenLock, Hibernate.. No reboot option and no shutdown option there.. any idea? anyone?
[12:31] <Sivik> this is probably a stupid question but is there a web publishing program for linux, i can't find anything on google.com
[12:31] <Noah0504> rb007: Oh.  Hmm, well, pehaps you can delete the panel and just add a new one with all of the old applets.
[12:31] <eternalswd> frenzy, okay, so your machine is supposed to act as a proxy?
[12:31] <awilcox> _seanc_ 75 is more standard than 72.
[12:31] <_seanc_> ok, how do I force 75 :)
[12:31] <Jenn> Why does sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg detect the wrong graphic card?
[12:31] <globe> jva: I dont think you can do that easily....plus I would think that it would cause confusion
[12:31] <rb007> Noah0504: how do you delete it?  It's not the top part with the applets... it's the lower panel...
[12:31] <awilcox> Hrm, I haven't done that for a long time, _seanc_.  In fact SuSE's X was so screwed that is why I switched to Ubuntu.
[12:32] <sethk> _seanc_, you override the monitor choice, and choose a monitor capable of doing 1280x1024@72 hz.  If you get into the monitor list, you'll see choices for various generic monitors, listing a refresh.  That refresh should match the monitor's highest resolution.  You'll see one that says 1280x1024@72, (or maybe 70, I don't remember, but you'll see it)
[12:32] <awilcox> no more screwing around with X :)
[12:32] <erichj> hateya: just thought of something. make sure you don't have more than one session for the same username running. if i log into multiple sessions i lose those options in all but the first session
[12:32] <jva> globe: no i need the equivalent of window's alt+shift
[12:32] <_seanc_> sethk: Ok, I'll see, it's just a pain it asked me like 100 questions first
[12:32] <frenzy> eternalswd: well idk about proxy but thru windos all i had to do is create the connection and tell it to share
[12:32] <puros_> http://ewizard.free.fr/?action=rubis&nom=puros
[12:33] <sethk> _seanc_, yes.  once you get used to it, you can blast through all the questions until you get to the one you care about
[12:33] <globe> jva: have you poked around in the keyboard shortcuts manager in preferences?
[12:33] <Oswy> Hey, can someone help me with partitioning?
[12:33] <eternalswd> frenzy, is there any particular reason the other computer can't connect directly through the switch to the modem?
[12:33] <Oswy> How do I set one up on the install screen without wiping it?
[12:33] <bruenig> Oswy, what is your question
[12:33] <bruenig> Oswy, if you are doing the manual partition, nothing actually is touched until you hit next or apply
[12:33] <Oswy> Right.
[12:33] <Oswy> But then will it erase it?
[12:34] <Jenn> Why does sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg detect the wrong graphic card, the old one? How can I fix that?
[12:34] <bruenig> Oswy, you mean you don't want to touch it at all?
[12:34] <Oswy> Yeah.
[12:34] <jva> globe: i don't know which specific submenu controls that. but yes i have messed with it.
[12:34] <Ducky> i can run windows programs correct ? IE Dj software that works in windows, and irc correct ?
[12:34] <Kresjah> I
[12:34] <hateyla> Can i use beryl in Ubuntu-dapper  ?
[12:34] <_seanc_> sethk: It lets me do 1400x1050 @ 75... why hate on 1280x1024
[12:34] <awilcox> Okay I just tried to reinstall Netscape 7.02 as a normal user.  It installs as a normal user, but STILL won't open.
[12:34] <bruenig> Oswy, then just don't touch it, after the manual partition party, there is a part where you can set mountpoints and tell it whether you want to format it or not
[12:34] <erichj> hateyla: also, if you are logged on as root you shoulnd't see those options
[12:34] <bruenig> !beryl | hateyla yes you can
[12:34] <ubotu> hateyla yes you can: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[12:35] <awilcox> Is there a Netscape channel?
[12:35] <rbil> _seanc_: have u tried this command to query the sync rates of your monitor? sudo ddcprobe | grep monitorrange
[12:35] <sethk> _seanc_, that's quite odd.  In that case, I think I would try to override.
[12:35] <erichj> at least that is how my install seems to work
[12:35] <LadyNikon> awilcox: that is still around?
[12:35] <Mirth> Gonna try Super GRUB Disk
[12:35] <Mirth> Sounds easy
[12:35] <deezy> Hi all!
[12:35] <awilcox> LadyNikon: Yes?
[12:35] <Kresjah> I'm having problems compiling xf86-video-ati on my edgy. I get errors regarding undefined PACKAGE_VERSION_MAJOR, PACKAGE_VERSION_MINOR and PACKAGE_VERSION_PATCHLEVEL. Any ideas about what I can try?
[12:35] <hateyla> bruenig,  thankyou..
[12:35] <soundray> Jenn: ignore the autodetected one, choose the proper driver at the next screen and enter the PCI ID of the card when it asks (find it out with lspci)
[12:35] <_seanc_> sethk: Ok, where can I find how to do that? :)
[12:35] <Marupa> or not.  x.x
[12:35] <awilcox> LadyNikon I have Netscape 7.02 that I must get working on Linux.
[12:36] <awilcox> And nobody here seems to know what the problem is.
[12:36] <_seanc_> sethk: I can make direct changes to xorg.conf right to override it like I did for 1280x1024
[12:36] <Oswy> bruenig: Thanks. (up there)
[12:36] <LadyNikon> awilcox: sounds like you may have to run it in wine
[12:36] <Jenn> soundray, Ispci?
[12:36] <abasinisvacant> quick question:  what's the latest stable version of edgy;  6.10?
[12:36] <LadyNikon> awilcox: if they dont have a linus version
[12:36] <MarcM> Ducky: no. Windows and Linux are 2 completely different creatures. you can only run software written/compiled for Linux
[12:36] <soundray> Jenn: no, Lspci
[12:36] <bruenig> abasinisvacant, edgy is the latest stable version of ubuntu
[12:36] <deezy> Anyone available for a quick ? on live cd install probs...i'm getting the startup sound when it boots into ubuntu, then nasty black/white/green/red lines
[12:36] <sethk> _seanc_, you can try that.  If you make a mistake, though, then X will refuse to start.  You can always reverse the change.
[12:36] <Jenn> sounray, how do I correctly find the PCI ID?
[12:36] <frenzy> eternalswd: yeah ... the modem wont allow loopback, so the ppl here cant play warcraft online with eachother
[12:36] <soundray> Jenn: with lspci
[12:36] <Marupa> it's looking for libasound.so and alsa/asoundlib.h  Neither of which exist.
[12:36] <abasinisvacant> bruenig, but what version of edgy
[12:36] <deezy> it's like it's a video prob w/ my card...but im stuck on what to do next
[12:36] <awilcox> LadyNikon they have a Linux version, I am running it, but it will only run as root.
[12:36] <Kalle_> Hey... isnt dapper LAMP server preinstalled with lwp-download ???
[12:36] <_seanc_> sethk: Ok, then where can I find out to do that and reverse the change (in case)
[12:36] <LadyNikon> awilcox: change the permissions
[12:36] <Jenn> soundray, sorry but what is LSPCI?
[12:37] <bruenig> abasinisvacant, there is only one version of edgy
[12:37] <dauoalagio1> hello i have a conexant intel hd audio system in my laptop, and whenever i try to turn up the sound it gets really distored.  also it is very soft even when it's up at max, it's probably have of what it could be.  i have it turned fully up in alsamixer, any ideas?
[12:37] <puros_> http://ewizard.free.fr/?action=rubis&nom=puros
[12:37] <abasinisvacant> oh..
[12:37] <Oswy> OK, bruenig, it says that there's no root system.
[12:37] <LadyNikon> !permissions
[12:37] <Oswy> Or something like that.
[12:37] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[12:37] <awilcox> LadyNikon I installed it as a normal user.  I also did chmod 777 netscape7 -R
[12:37] <bruenig> Oswy, you have to set something to mount at /
[12:37] <soundray> Jenn: enter 'man lspci' to find out
[12:37] <Oswy> Hmm.
[12:37] <Jenn> soundray, how do I access LSPCI?
[12:37] <Oswy> Gah, how do I do that?
[12:37] <sethk> _seanc_, there are lots of docs around.  I don't know one off the top of my had, but it shouldn't be hard to find.  I just use dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and let the program do the work.
[12:37] <Jenn> man lspci..
[12:37] <Oswy> I'm pathetic with this.
[12:37] <bruenig> Oswy, change the mount point
[12:37] <Jenn> ok
[12:37] <LadyNikon> awilcox: see the links above
[12:37] <Oswy> ?
[12:37] <awilcox> LadyNikon: I have already done this.
[12:37] <truvisionary> how do I install compiz?
[12:37] <LadyNikon> awilcox: then thats all i know

[12:37] <awilcox> LadyNikon: I have chmod 777 netscape7 -R
[12:37] <LadyNikon> it should work under user
[12:38] <Oswy> "Use the largest continuous free space."
[12:38] <awilcox> LadyNikon yes it should, that is why I need help.
[12:38] <Oswy> Will that wipe?
[12:38] <killsalad> hi all
[12:38] <Oswy> Or does that leave everything else untouched?
[12:38] <LadyNikon> awilcox: is there a usergroup for it?
[12:38] <awilcox> LadyNikon: Netscape?  No there isn't.
[12:38] <bruenig> Oswy, that leaves everything else untouched
[12:38] <Oswy> OK, cool.
[12:38] <Oswy> Thanks.
[12:38] <mage___> anyone want to explain to me the whole restricted modules in a tmpfs thing?
[12:38] <awilcox> Maybe I should just run as root.
[12:38] <LadyNikon> awilcox: sorry i couldnt think of anything else :(
[12:38] <Jenn> soundray, ok, I got the menu. What option do I pick from there?
[12:38] <Oswy> wtf
[12:39] <Oswy> I have 199 GB and it said it wasn't enough.
[12:39] <Oswy> ><
[12:39] <soundray> Jenn: what menu?
[12:39] <_seanc_> sethk: Ok, I just didn't see where I could force it to use a higher res
[12:39] <Jenn> I entered 'man lspci'
[12:39] <deezy> Anyone available for a question?  can you pm?
[12:39] <mage___> Oswy: maybe it means unpartitioned space
[12:39] <Oswy> Probably, yeah.
[12:39] <Oswy> In which case, I'm screwed?
[12:39] <sethk> _seanc_, by overriding it's monitor choice, you will get additional resolutions from which to choose
[12:39] <Jenn> soundgray: I got this Linux PCI UTILITIES menu.
[12:40] <soundray> Jenn: that's not a menu, it's a manual page. If you read it, you will learn how to use lspci
[12:40] <Noah0504> Does anyone know of a good console email application that can support Gmail?
[12:40] <deezy> Thunderbird!
[12:40] <bruenig> deezy, console
[12:40] <Kalle_> Thunderbird
[12:40] <soundray> Noah0504: mutt with fetchmail
[12:40] <mage___> Oswy: "manually" doing it gives you a gui to resize partitions,
[12:40] <deezy> ah f me
[12:40] <am_rods> hi

[12:40] <puros_> http://ewizard.free.fr/?action=rubis&nom=puros
[12:41] <Ash-Fox> For those of you who are having problems with Wine's official repository for edgy (bad dependency issues). I have fixed the package myself and uploaded it to my own repository, you can add my repository via: sudo bash -c 'echo deb http://packages.quickfox.org/ ubuntu-edgy/ >> /etc/apt/sources.list'
[12:41] <soundray> Noah0504: no, it's a separate program for retrieving mail via POP or IMAP
[12:41] <mage___> Noah0504: it should be ;)
[12:41] <storm-zen> Where does synaptic write its logs?  ( I installed alot of software but my son turned the PC off before I could see any error messages ) ..
[12:41] <bruenig> Ash-Fox, or they can just wget those two dependencies
[12:41] <sethk> Noah0504, fetchmail is a separate piece of software that is useful in many situations, such as yours'
[12:41] <soundray> Jenn: it is *not* a menu

[12:42] <Ash-Fox> bruenig, well, those two dependencies don't seem to be a standard part of ubuntu edgy and replacing them may cause issues with other packages.
[12:42] <bruenig> Ash-Fox, they are in the repos
[12:42] <soundray> Jenn: lspci is a command line program
[12:42] <mage___> kevincastfiction: run 'dpkg --configure  -a' to correct the problem.
[12:42] <mage___> :D
[12:42] <Kalle_> Any got a quick guide to get lwp-download ??
[12:42] <sethk> kevincastfiction, run dpkg --configure -a
[12:42] <Ash-Fox> bruenig, apt-get can't find those later versions.

[12:43] <deezy> bruenig>  i'm trying to install on my GF4 5600fx box
[12:44] <rbil> am_rods: what's the name of the app?
[12:44] <kevincastfiction> mage___: It won't let me log in as root.
[12:44] <am_rods> wine
[12:44] <Jenn> soundgray, I'm in the command right now. What should I enter to see the pci #?
[12:44] <mage___> kevincastfiction: its a console command, so you'd open up a terminal
[12:44] <bruenig> deezy, congratulations?
[12:44] <deezy> live cd, and safe mode on the cd look terrible..I can't install.
[12:44] <rbil> am_rods: in a terminal ... killall wine
[12:44] <deezy> white/black/red/green lines
[12:44] <hateyla> bruenig,  i have this .0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device (rev 02) .. is beryl Support it?
[12:44] <soundray> kevincastfiction: 'sudo dpkg --configure -a'
[12:44] <Jenn> soundray, sorry for spell name mistake and my lack of knowledge. :(
[12:44] <am_rods> thanks
[12:44] <bruenig> hateyla, I don't know
[12:44] <Noah0504> Well, if I have just a simple email account as part of a web hosting package, what would be a good program for accessing it?  I'm not sure what protocol it uses though.
[12:44] <deezy> Sounds like a video card issue?
[12:44] <Ash-Fox> bruenig, point of the matter is. I prepared a package that uses the existing libraries without a issue at the moment.
[12:44] <Oswy> So is there any way I can use the free space I have on the current partition, or create a new one without wiping?
[12:44] <soundray> kevincastfiction: it will ask for your user password
[12:44] <hateyla> bruenig, .. what i need to install for beryl?
[12:45] <bruenig> !beryl | hateyla
[12:45] <ubotu> hateyla: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[12:45] <deezy> Is the only work around to run the alternative install cd? do a text line install
[12:45] <mage___> kevincastfiction: open terminal and sudo bash
[12:45] <deezy> then how do I fix the card issue?
[12:45] <soundray> Jenn: never mind. Have you found the PCI ID of your new graphics card?
[12:45] <kevincastfiction> mage___: Thanks for the help.
[12:45] <mage___> soundray: he might mean you cant log in as root with the gui ;)
[12:45] <kevincastfiction> Seth K: Thanks for the help.
[12:45] <kevincastfiction> soundray: Thanks for the help.
[12:45] <Jenn> soundray, I'm trying but I have no idea how to do that! :(
[12:45] <Jenn> soundray, I'm sorry.
[12:45] <bruenig> Ash-Fox, I packaged xdvdshrink, you should put that in your repo. xdvdshrink is awesome but it isn't in ubuntu repos for some reason
[12:45] <soundray> mage___: I think I know what he meant
[12:45] <Oswy> Ugh, never mind.
[12:45] <killaz> bummer nvidia overscan doesnt work on GeForce2
[12:45] <Oswy> g2g to dinner
[12:45] <owner> does anyone have maguma workbench on their machine i just want to know if it is  good for php, css, phpmyadmin. i used to have dreamweaver but i switched to ubuntu
[12:46] <Oswy> I'll ask again later if I still haven't figured it out.
[12:46] <Toran> is there a fast way to unzip a lot of .zip files in one folder? (hopefully with one command)
[12:46] <bruenig> Toran, unzip *.zip
[12:46] <killaz> bah bah amd more bah
[12:46] <andre_pl> how long should th einstaller take to resize an ntfs partition? i'm afraid its not working right, its been about 15 mins
[12:46] <Toran> I tried that, bruenig, it didn't work
[12:46] <deezy> bruenig, can I PM?
[12:46] <soundray> Jenn: just enter 'lspci' in the terminal, like any other command. It will do what the man page explains: "list all PCI devices" along with their IDs
[12:46] <bruenig> Toran, what was the output
[12:46] <am_rods> rbil: it says wine: no process killed
[12:46] <Toran> jon@gimli:~/pics/wallpapers/abstract$ unzip *zip
[12:46] <Toran> Archive:  013a.zip
[12:46] <Toran> caution: filename not matched:  absorb.zip
[12:46] <Toran> caution: filename not matched:  alovelytree.zip
[12:46] <Toran> ...
[12:46] <rbil> Toran: try unzip "*.zip"
[12:47] <Toran> ok
[12:47] <puros_> http://ewizard.free.fr/?action=rubis&nom=puros
[12:47] <Mirth> Can you guys help me find a couple of things about my Ubuntu, using an example?
[12:47] <Toran> that worked
[12:47] <Toran> thanks rbil
[12:47] <Mirth> title Ubuntu
[12:47] <Mirth> root (hd1,1)
[12:47] <bruenig> alovelytree.zip, what could that be
[12:47] <Mirth> kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.17-10-generic ro root=/dev/hdb2
[12:47] <deezy> ?
[12:47] <Mirth> initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.17-10-generic
[12:47] <Mirth> I need to find those
[12:47] <gonzo_> I'm having problems getting ubuntu to mount my swap partition on boot
[12:47] <Jenn> soundgray, you rock! FOUND IT!
[12:47] <Mirth> And those are examples
[12:47] <bruenig> gonzo_, is it configured right in your fstab?
[12:47] <soundray> Mirth: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[12:48] <squee> How do I find where in /dev my video camera is?
[12:48] <gonzo_> I'm having problems getting ubuntu to mount my swap partition on boot;9
[12:48] <Mirth> Will try that soundray
[12:48] <Mirth> Thanks
[12:48] <deezy> ~Video card problems on Live CD~
[12:48] <soundray> squee: it should be /dev/video0
[12:48] <am_rods> rbil: it says no process killed
[12:48] <Kalle_> Any got a quick guide to get lwp-download ??
[12:48] <hateyla> bruenig,  u told me that i can use beryl on Ubuntu-dapper?
[12:48] <soundray> squee: if it's not, try to plug it in another socket
[12:48] <bruenig> hateyla, I did
[12:48] <squee> soundray: I would think so, but it isn't.  camstream can still play it too
[12:48] <rbil> am_rods: is wine running a window on your desktop?
[12:49] <hateyla> bruenig,  check your PM
[12:49] <bruenig> hateyla, nothing and don't pm me
[12:49] <squee> soundray: it is usb, and it doesn't show up anywhere under /dev/video*
[12:49] <deezy> ~Video card problems on Live CD~
[12:49] <bruenig> hateyla, go to #ubuntu-effects for help with beryl
[12:49] <Ash-Fox> bruenig, I could -- my only requirements for things in quickfox's repository is that things install properly on a brand new <distro version> installation and actually.. work :P
[12:49] <hateyla> bruenig,  nevamind.. but ya i just got there n get a result that..  <crdlb> hateyla, there are no beryl packages for dapper afaik
[12:49] <rbil> am_rods: what does this produce? ps aux | grep wine
[12:49] <am_rods> rbil: it appers that is running a window but it is frozen
[12:49] <soundray> squee: maybe camstream accesses /dev/video, which is usually a symlink to something else.
[12:49] <gonzo_> I tried to conf if in fstab but it hasn't worked
[12:49] <bruenig> Ash-Fox, oh quickfox, I used that with glipper
[12:50] <storm-zen> where does synaptic write its log files?  I need to see any error messages that it may have had during a massive installation...
[12:50] <Marupa> Anyone here ever used darkice?
[12:50] <Ash-Fox> bruenig, I'm talking of the repo called quickfox, not the browser.
[12:50] <am_rods> rbil: i does not appear in the taskbar
[12:50] <gonzo_> free says swap is 0 0 0 but the partition still exsists
[12:50] <bruenig> Ash-Fox, I know, it had glipper did it not or was that something else
[12:50] <gonzo_> any 1?
[12:50] <am_rods> rbil: but i have a frozen square in my display
[12:51] <rbil> am_rods: what does this produce? ps aux | grep wine
[12:51] <Mirth> Thanks soundray, got it
[12:51] <Ash-Fox> glfrontier
[12:51] <soundray> storm-zen: one of the files in /var/log/installer/ I would think (but I haven't checked)
[12:51] <storm-zen> soundray: ok.  I'll check there.
[12:51] <am_rods> rbil: i have also tried with the appkiller applet
[12:51] <boredandblogging> can someone tell me why I can't set stuff in synaptic from http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/libs/ when I already have deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ edgy main restricted multiverse universe in my sources.list file?
[12:51] <Ducky> to install Ubuntu...i must burn the copy i download to a cd..correct ? i cannont install with just powerISO ?
[12:51] <rbil> am_rods: u aren't answering my question
[12:52] <bruenig> boredandblogging, "set stuff"?
[12:52] <secion8> Screen goes black after logging out, running feisty fawn with ati radeon 200m and proprietary drivers.. Any ideas how to fix it?
[12:52] <boredandblogging> bruenig, sorry, get stuff
[12:52] <bruenig> boredandblogging, what are you trying to get
[12:52] <am_rods> rbil: what do you want me to tell you?
[12:52] <boredandblogging> bruenig, libswidgets
[12:52] <soundray> secion8: I had that problem. You don't want to know how I fixed it.
[12:53] <soundray> secion8: I bought an NVidia card :(
[12:53] <rbil> am_rods: run the command i've given u and tell me the results that are displayed
[12:53] <secion8> soundray, bought a nvidia card?
[12:53] <bruenig> boredandblogging, libswidgets is not a package, do you know its real name
[12:53] <soundray> secion8: yep
[12:53] <boredandblogging> bruenig, libswidgets-java
[12:53] <bruenig> !info libswidgets-java
[12:53] <secion8> soundray, knew that was coming :) Unfortunately I am running a laptop
[12:53] <ubotu> Package libswidgets-java does not exist in edgy, edgy-backports, edgy-seveas
[12:53] <bruenig> boredandblogging, nope
[12:54] <boredandblogging> bruenig, ok, so what are the files in http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/libs/
[12:54] <Ducky> to install Ubuntu...i must burn the copy i download to a cd..correct ? i cannont install with just powerISO ?
[12:54] <soundray> secion8: the ati driver worked for me more or less, but I needed acceleration to run some software I need for work.
[12:54] <dauoalagio1> ducky, yep
[12:54] <bruenig> boredandblogging, there are no debs in the libswidgets directory, just tar.gz and .dsc and .diff
[12:54] <Ducky> thank you...
[12:54] <am_rods> rbil:
[12:54] <am_rods> mikel@protoss:~$ killall wine
[12:54] <am_rods> wine: no process killed
[12:55] <goofey> xorg.0.log says Failed to load the Nvidia Kernel Module (this after a failed beryl install) - any ideas?
[12:55] <Kalle_> Hey can anybody help with version suggestion.. Dabber vs Edgy.. This is for some home solution (newz / samba / LAMP are all going to be used)
[12:55] <soundray> secion8: the fglrx driver exhibited precisely the behaviour you describe. It also crashed the machine when I tried to switch to console.
[12:55] <boredandblogging> bruenig, so if the diffs are there, where is the package?
[12:55] <rbil> am_rods: no ... I've asked u twice now for this command and this is the last time i'm going to ask :-)  ps aux | grep wine
[12:55] <Kalle_> Btw not the best linuxadmin :P
[12:56] <williammanda> I just changed my video card from a nvidia to a ati....what would be the best way to change the driver?
[12:56] <secion8> soundray: yep, It crashes the same way here. Thinking of trading my lappy in for an nvidia based hp
[12:56] <bruenig> boredandblogging, don't know, but not in there
[12:56] <chuckf> Kalle_, I'd go for edgy
[12:56] <bruenig> boredandblogging, perhaps they removed them or something for some reason?
[12:56] <secion8> williammanda: WHY?
[12:56] <soundray> williammanda: 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[12:57] <bruenig> boredandblogging, maybe they were obsoleted by some other package
[12:57] <Kalle_> chuckf ok... Last time I read about it edgy was still a no no for beginners :)
[12:57] <soundray> williammanda: bad choice by the way (as secion8 will confirm ;)
[12:57] <whta> all right, guys, i just completely rewired my computer. let's see if my random turnoff problem stops :D
[12:57] <chuckf> Kalle_, well everyone has to start somewhere
[12:57] <am_rods> rbil:
[12:57] <am_rods> mikel@protoss:~$ ps aux | grep wine
[12:57] <am_rods> mikel     6165  0.0  0.3   4092  1736 ?        Ss   19:33   0:00 /usr/bin/../lib/../bin/wineserver

[12:57] <Kalle_> hehe
[12:58] <rbil> am_rods: killall wineserver
[12:58] <chuckf> Kalle_, and if it was right after it came out, I would agree
[12:58] <williammanda> I can't get the console up during boot up...any ideas?
[12:58] <poohter> DCC SEND LOLLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOOL
[12:58] <bruenig> edgy was just as good as dapper for beginners, the problem with edgy was the upgrade breakage mainly
[12:58] <Kalle_> chuckf I messed a round with a dapper lamp the last two nights to get my "skills" back but I cant get lwp-download to work :S
[12:58] <boredandblogging> bruenig, you are right, on launchpad, it says not yet built
[12:58] <storm-zen> .
[12:59] <Kalle_> aah ok so a new edgy is as good as a new dapper for install
[12:59] <bruenig> Kalle_, yeah
[12:59] <owner> what is the best editor for php and css and phpmyadmin
[12:59] <LadyNikon> woah
[12:59] <storm-zen> what the.. ?
[12:59] <Kalle_> wtf
[12:59] <am_rods> rbil: mikel@protoss:~$ killall wineserver
[12:59] <am_rods> mikel@protoss:~$ killall wineserver
[12:59] <am_rods> wineserver: no process killed
[12:59] <Flannel> Kalle_: Edgy was fine upgrading too, as long as you didn't use 3rd party repos.  Automatix was the reason for a good deal of those breakages.
[12:59] <dauoalagio1> am_rods, sudo killall...
[12:59] <Kalle_> Nice as for now I'll only use the server versions :)
[01:00] <Kalle_> But can any of you tell me how to get lwp-down to work :)
[01:00] <rbil> am_rods: ??? ok try .... kill -9 6165
[01:00] <LadyNikon> people are just to bored these days
[01:00] <Kalle_> I got it on my redhat webserver (rented one)
[01:01] <whta> speaking of servers, is there a good synaptic repository for a solid LAMP server? or do i have to get it all separate?
[01:01] <am_rods> rbil: mikel@protoss:~$ kill -9 6165
[01:01] <am_rods> bash: kill: (6165) - No such process
[01:01] <bruenig> whta, any lamp package will just depend on the separate things (most likely)
[01:01] <soundray> whta: ubotu has some info for you, private message
[01:01] <Flannel> whta: main has everything for LAMP.
[01:01] <soundray> ubotu, tell whta about lamp
[01:01] <rbil> am_rods: then something is really screwed up. I'm afraid all u can do at this point is restart gui .. CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE
[01:02] <mindstate> i get a weird error when trying to extract a .bz2 file inside of a iso .. tar: NeverwinterNights: Cannot mkdir: Read-only file system.. can anyone help
[01:02] <gonzo_> hello, can some 1 help me get ubuntu to mount my swap partition on boot?
[01:02] <am_rods> rbil: thanks anyway
[01:02] <bruenig> gonzo_, I just asked you
[01:02] <gonzo_> ???
[01:02] <bruenig> gonzo_, is fstab configured right
[01:03] <bimberi> mindstate: you need to extract it to a writable area, such as your home directory
[01:03] <gonzo_> not sure
[01:03] <mindstate> bimberi, ive tried that also.. i get the same error
[01:03] <eV64_> anyone here used mythtv?
[01:03] <bruenig> gonzo_, pastebin your /etc/fstab
[01:03] <bruenig> !pastebin | gonzo_
[01:03] <ubotu> gonzo_: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[01:03] <soundray> eV64_: ask a support question. This channel is not for surveys.
[01:03] <gonzo_> /mnt/576Mb.swap none		swap 	    sw 		    0 	    0
[01:03] <bimberi> mindstate: paste the command you ran
[01:04] <eV64_>  can someone look at this paste for me? http://pastebin.ca/402713 just ran myth-tv setup with errors and there's no window border around the grey setup screen
[01:04] <eV64_>  my tuner works with tvtime
[01:04] <gonzo_> also tried with /dev/hda5 and no luck
[01:04] <harry__> do any of you know if beryl has an IRC channel, or if there is one relating to that topic?
[01:04] <bruenig> gonzo_, oh I am not familiar with the inside the filesystem swap space at least not enough to be comfortable enough to answer it
[01:04] <bruenig> harry__, #beryl and #ubuntu-effects good places
[01:05] <Oswy> k back
[01:05] <Oswy> So can I create a partition or something to install Ubuntu on without wiping my HD?
[01:05] <sethk> gonzo_, are you able to mount it at the command line?
[01:05] <gonzo_> used the guide on the wiki and its made my file system, and I can see it with fsdisk, but it dosn't mount on boot
[01:05] <sethk> gonzo_, generally all you need to do is add the partition to /etc/fstab
[01:05] <mindstate> bimberi, sudo mount -o loop NeverwinterNights1-linux.iso ~/Desktop/iso
[01:06] <Jisao> is there a link to go to get Ubuntu in other languages than English?  Or are all the localizations included in the default Cd?
[01:06] <gonzo_> i can mount it with swapon
[01:06] <bimberi> mindstate: the extract command 'tar ...' ?
[01:06] <Oswy> If I create, say, a 2 GB partition, will it re-wipe the whole thing, or just find 2 GB that's free?
[01:06] <bruenig> sethk, it looks like it isn't on its own partition
[01:06] <mindstate> bimberi, tar -xjvf files.tar.bz2
[01:06] <soundray> eV64_: the "BadDevice" errors aren't usually anything to worry about. However, it appears to be trying to switch to full screen in a way that your graphics card doesn't support.
[01:07] <Oswy> Yes? No?
[01:07] <mjr> Jisao, not all are on the CD, but the CD will download your chosen language files if you have a network connection
[01:07] <sethk> bruenig, you mean he wants to use a file in a file system as swap?  if so, you don't mount it
[01:07] <soundray> eV64: did you get my reply?
[01:07] <mindstate> bimberi, nevermind dude i got it too work lol
[01:07] <eV64> no, xchat just crashed
[01:07] <mjr> Jisao, (and if they're not included)
[01:07] <soundray> eV64_: the "BadDevice" errors aren't usually anything to worry about. However, it appears to be trying to switch to full screen in a way that your graphics card doesn't support.
[01:07] <bruenig> sethk, that is what it looks like to me
[01:07] <gonzo_> no, its a file, my laptop is awkward, so I can't create partitions easily
[01:07] <bimberi> mindstate: cool, saved me some typing :)
[01:07] <soundray> eV64: what's your graphics card?
[01:07] <eV64> soundray: ati radeon 9800pro agp
[01:07] <Jisao> So people don't need a French/Italian/German CD.  Default does the job.
[01:08] <eV64> soundray: default edgy driver
[01:08] <sethk> gonzo_, you can add the statement to mount it to /etc/rc.local
[01:08] <rm_you> is there a guide somewhere for customizing the Edgy 6.10 livecd? The wiki only has instructions for Dapper and earlier :(
[01:08] <gonzo_> I'm not that experianced, lol
[01:08] <Oswy> HELLO, Is there ANY WAY to install Ubuntu either without creating a new partition or without losing the data already on the HD?
[01:08] <gonzo_> tell me how and I will give it a shot
[01:08] <bimberi> !uck | rm_you
[01:08] <ubotu> rm_you: UCK is a tool that helps you customise official Ubuntu Live CDs (including Kubuntu/Xubuntu and Edubuntu) to your needs. See http://uck.sourceforge.net/

[01:08] <rm_you> bimberi: thanks! :P
[01:09] <clearzen> Oswy: Yes, resize the current parition that you have your information on
[01:09] <Oswy> And that doesn't erase my info?
[01:09] <soundray> eV64: I would try the fglrx driver.
[01:09] <clearzen> No it won't
[01:09] <eV64> soundray: * Proprietary ATI and NVidia video drivers should be installed and configured after MythTV installation and configuration is complete.-from the guide i'm using
[01:09] <Oswy> k
[01:09] <Oswy> How much do I need to put aside, 2 GB?
[01:09] <bimberi> rm_you: np :) (it's a pretty risk factoid name that one)
[01:09] <soundray> ubotu, please tell eV64 about ati
[01:09] <gonzo_> swapon /mnt/576Mb.swap works in term from root
[01:09] <eV64> soundray: then the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MythTV_Edgy_Backend_Frontend_Desktop should be changed
[01:10] <clearzen> Oswy: Personally I would use about 5 depending on the size of your hdd, just to be safe
[01:10] <slacker_nl> lo
[01:10] <harry_> what was the oter channel than beryl?
[01:10] <bimberi> *riskqu
[01:10] <Oswy> k
[01:10] <eV64> soundray: thanks, I will go install the driver
[01:10] <bimberi> harry_: #ubuntu-effects
[01:10] <soundray> eV64: if you're sure about that, go ahead and make the change
[01:10] <Jisao> risqu

[01:10] <james296> and I need help plz
[01:11] <rm_you> bimberi: it would be nice if the wiki page for customizing ubuntu edgy (which doesnt exist at the moment) had that link :P

[01:11] <jvai> aight ppl. ty all..
[01:11] <james296> it says the X11 driver is missing...
[01:11] <rm_you> I suppose I could add it... >_>
[01:11] <Oswy> And this will definitely not wipe what I have so far?
[01:11] <bimberi> rm_you: feel free to edit :)
[01:11] <Oswy> Sorry, I just really don't want to lose my stuff.
[01:11] <soundray> Oswy: back it up
[01:11] <soundray> Oswy: data you haven't backed up is data you don't want.
[01:11] <Oswy> Haha, but then I'd have to restart the installation.
[01:11] <Oswy> heh.
[01:11] <Oswy> Fine.
[01:12] <soundray> Oswy: ask yourself "what's more important"?
[01:12] <gonzo_> so can any one help me mount my swap 'area' on boot? works from term as root using swapon /mnt/576Mb.swap
[01:12] <Oswy> Heh.
[01:12] <Oswy> Clarification, then; can I have 2 GB and be safe, or do I need more?
[01:12] <cables> hey, will 32 bit Ubuntu work with an AMD64 processor?
[01:13] <LiENUS> yes
[01:13] <bimberi> cables: yes
[01:13] <Jisao> yes, cableroy
[01:13] <soundray> Oswy: partition manipulation can result in catastrophic failure, even with the best software. All it takes is something like a power cut.
[01:13] <Jisao> yes, cables
[01:13] <Oswy> k
[01:13] <bimberi> 4-0
[01:13] <Oswy> I shall copy my smaller HD onto my bigger one, then, haha.
[01:13] <rbil> gonzo_: what is the result of this command? cat /etc/fstab |grep swap
[01:13] <soundray> cables: yes yes yes (7-0) (bimberi!) ;)
[01:14] <Hatty> How do you make a multi-dvd project in k3b. I cause i want to most of my ~/ and its like 8gb
[01:14] <storm-zen> Anyone here familiar with Wacom?
[01:14] <soundray> cables: it's the recommended one if you mainly use it as a desktop
[01:14] <ardchoille> soundray: Really? Nice to know, was planning to build a 64 soon.
[01:14] <gonzo_> rbil, what u mean by that?
[01:15] <gonzo_> rbil, it gives no output, but instantly mounts the area I set aside for my swap mount
[01:15] <cables> Thanks. I'm trying to convince my friend not to use 64-bit Ubuntu, and he's getting all pissed off at me saying 32 bit won't work on his processor... riiiight.
[01:15] <soundray> ardchoille: for you, I'd recommend 64bit, just for the fun of setting up a 32bit chroot environment to run acroread, skype and flash in.
[01:16] <rbil> gonzo_: u ran that command and got no result?
[01:16] <C`> hihihihihi
[01:16] <Kresjah> I'm having problems compiling xf86-video-ati on my edgy. I get errors regarding undefined PACKAGE_VERSION_MAJOR, PACKAGE_VERSION_MINOR and PACKAGE_VERSION_PATCHLEVEL. Any ideas about what I can try?
[01:16] <gonzo_> swapon /mnt/576Mb.swap just mounts the partition
[01:16] <Oswy> Finally, is NTFS OK, or do I need to reformat it in FAT?
[01:16] <ardchoille> soundray: Hah! I don't use any of those things :)
[01:16] <C`> Anyone here got 5.1 sound working???
[01:16] <soundray> ardchoille: I run 64bit because I can't stand the thought of not using the last bit of performance from my hardware
[01:17] <soundray> ardchoille: what about java plugins on web pages?
[01:17] <rbil> gonzo_: results of this command? sudo fdisk -l | grep swap
[01:17] <ardchoille> soundray: I never used java
[01:18] <gonzo_> rbil, /mnt/576Mb.swap none            swap        sw              0       0 for the first command
[01:18] <soundray> Oswy: you can read ntfs fine in Linux. Writing to it is also safe these days, but takes a bit of work to activate.
[01:18] <dauoalagio1> hello i have a conexant HD audio system in my laptop, x86. the sound, even at it's max is working however it is very soft compared to what it is on windows.  i have tried install Linuxant but with little luck, and i have alsamixer tuned to 100% but still with little luck, any ideas?
[01:18] <gonzo_> rbil, /dev/hda5            4795        4864      562243+  82  Linux swap / Solaris
[01:18] <gonzo_>  for the fsdisk command
[01:19] <eV64> soundray: I've already started following http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Edgy_Installation_Guide#Pre-Installation_Checks
[01:19] <hypnox> dauoalagio1 make sure you turn up PCM too
[01:19] <soundray> Oswy: if you frequently share data between OSs, install ext2fsd in Windows to access your Linux partitions.
[01:19] <rbil> gonzo: hold on and I'll tell u what u should have in fstab
[01:19] <dauoalagio1> hypnox, it's up all the way, too.
[01:19] <gonzo_> rbil, cheers :)
[01:19] <rbil> gonzo: /dev/hda5       none            swap    sw              0       0
[01:20] <Hatty> how do i make k3b/gnomebaker burn across multiple dvds?
[01:20] <james296> I need help with Wine
[01:20] <andre_pl> is a dist-upgrade to feisty safe to do at this point?
[01:20] <gonzo_> rbil, I'll give it a try, but I thibnk I already tried it and it didn't work :(
[01:20] <rbil> gonzo_: to take effect, reboot computer, after chaning fstab
[01:20] <soundray> eV64: looks all right to me, but please note this isn't official ubuntu documentation
[01:20] <dauoalagio1> andre_pl, beryl didn't work for me ify ou care.
[01:20] <gonzo_> rbil, brb
[01:21] <andre_pl> dauoalagio1: i have beryl working with edgy, so i imagine i could eventually get it going in feisty too.  thats not really a concern.
[01:21] <soundray> andre_pl: no. If you decide to do an upgrade now, please be prepared to help with bug reporting/ bug fixing.
[01:21] <soundray> andre_pl: join #ubuntu+1 for further feisty questions.
[01:21] <andre_pl> I use the machine for school, so I dont raelly want to break it.
[01:21] <jenn8888888> Help - when I type in lspci, I get the pci id for my graphics card. Can you tell me if it's in correct format?
[01:21] <soundray> andre_pl: in that case, stick with edgy for now
[01:22] <jenn8888888> hi soundray
[01:22] <dauoalagio1> andre_pl, i updated to feisty and the beryl effects came out really distorted and ugly.  it also crashed on my normal system everyday updates.  i am back on edgy now.
[01:22] <Mummi> Does windows support ubuntu?
[01:22] <shark-1> is there a way i can run photoshop effectively on ubuntu
[01:22] <dauoalagio1> shark-1, wine?
[01:22] <soundray> jenn8888888: if you copy it from the first column of lspci output, it will be. Please get a less annoying nickname.
[01:23] <soundray> Mummi: your question doesn't make sense. Tell us what you are trying to do.
[01:23] <shark-1> dauoalagio1, photoshop is unstable with wine
[01:23] <dauoalagio1> shark-1, oh,  what about cedega even though you have to pay for that.
[01:23] <LiENUS> didnt adobe promise to make photoshop stable in wine a while back?
[01:23] <rbil> shark-1: photoshop 7 works in wine :-)
[01:23] <dauoalagio1> shark-1, why not just use the gimp?
[01:23] <LiENUS> dauoalagio1, cmyk is a good reason not to use the gimp
[01:23] <shark-1> i cant do the same stuff with gimp
[01:24] <soundray> Thanks jenn ;)
[01:24] <dauoalagio1> LiENUS: never heard
[01:24] <LiENUS> dauoalagio1,  cyan magenta yellow black
[01:24] <Kresjah> I'm having problems compiling xf86-video-ati on my edgy. I get errors regarding undefined PACKAGE_VERSION_MAJOR, PACKAGE_VERSION_MINOR and PACKAGE_VERSION_PATCHLEVEL. I really need to get it compiled in order to get GL running on my laptop. I've tried getting GL up for months, and have been forced to learn a bunch of stuff I shouldn't have to learn (so basically, I'm still a newbie learning the hard way). Any ideas about what I can try?
[01:24] <LiENUS> its the color scheme for print
[01:24] <LiENUS> monitors use rgb
[01:24] <LiENUS> printers use cmyk
[01:24] <efface> does ubuntu come with a mixer?
[01:24] <jenn> soundray, I get this: 0000:01:0b.0
[01:24] <dauoalagio1> LiENUS: what's wrong with gimp and those colours?
[01:24] <dauoalagio1> oh i see.
[01:24] <scumbag> has anyone tried this mezzo thing?
[01:24] <LiENUS> dauoalagio1,  the gimp doesnt support cmyk
[01:25] <harry_> cmyk is better than RBY red yellow blue b/c RBY is Brown-biased
[01:25] <dauoalagio1> LiENUS: well i only have a black and whitep rinter, so whatever haha.
[01:25] <scumbag> mezzo desktop on ubuntu
[01:25] <shark-1> !mezzo
[01:25] <LiENUS> dauoalagio1,  magazines have color
[01:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mezzo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:25] <shark-1> hmm
[01:25] <efface> Does ubuntu have an audio mixer?
[01:25] <soundray> jenn: can you please put up all lspci output on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org and give me the URL
[01:25] <shark-1> what is mezzo
[01:25] <eV64> soundray: Option	    "OpenGLOverlay" "off", is this default for x11.conf?
[01:26] <dauoalagio1> mezzo looks like fun
[01:26] <soundray> efface: yes. Double-click the volume icon in the top panel
[01:26] <dauoalagio1> shark-1, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Symph-032.png
[01:26] <scumbag> shark: some new desktop.. like gnome and kde
[01:26] <soundray> eV64: I don't know.
[01:26] <harry_> it would be nice if Adobe was all cool-like and released CS3 for Linux
[01:26] <efface> ty
[01:26] <gonzo_> rbil, nope, didn't work :(
[01:26] <scumbag> http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c72/Minyaliel/Mezzo2.png
[01:27] <rbil> gonzo_: what does free say?
[01:27] <gonzo_> rbil, swap 0 0
[01:27] <rbil> gonzo_: it should work. what are u trying to do?
[01:27] <harry_> but *everybody* knows that linux users are all communist pirates, so it's not going to happen.
[01:27] <shark-1> who is making mezzo and those who are using it is it smooth?
[01:27] <soundray> harry_: take this to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[01:28] <dauoalagio1> it looks very unstable, mezzo.
[01:28] <gonzo_> mount a swap area on boot
[01:28] <harry_> Is it possible to embed an RSS feed into a gnome bar?
[01:28] <scumbag> shark-1: i dont know anything.. just found it using stumble plugin in firefox
[01:28] <ant_> mezzo looks like it was made for the visually impaired
[01:28] <scumbag> it looks fancy
[01:28] <jenn> soundray, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11113/
[01:28] <rbil> gonzo_: free | grep Swap
[01:29] <zach635> hey all, bit of trouble with nvidia drivers here.  I have dual monitors and it's displaying everything on the wrong monitor.  I cant seem to fix it in the nvidia control panel with nvidia-settings.  any ideas?

[01:29] <owner> what does everyone think of nvu
[01:29] <waxyfresh> ubuntu 5.10 froze during install at :full name of new user,i cant get to any consols nothting no hard drive light activity nothing.any help?
[01:29] <sethk> zach635, stand on your head
[01:29] <gonzo_> rbil:already started it manually as my laptop wont run any software without it
[01:30] <soundray> jenn: I actually meant all the lines. But never mind, I think you should just try feeding that ID to the appropriate dialog.
[01:30] <shark-1> !nvu
[01:30] <ubotu> nvu: Complete Web Authoring System. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0final-2ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 8373 kB, installed size 26448 kB
[01:30] <mithya> is it inadvaisable to create a dual boot xp/ubuntu on a 20 gb hd?
[01:30] <efface> ok i unmuted my mic in the mixer....and i still can not get my mic working, sound works fine
[01:30] <gonzo_> rbil: I used this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq
[01:30] <waxyfresh> mithya: no
[01:30] <james296> so can anyone tell me WHY I cant run winecfg after installing the latest version of it?
[01:31] <shark-1> sorry guys i dunno what any of this is cuz im on my dads windows comp not my linux box
[01:31] <bimberi> mithya: that would be fine
[01:31] <sethk> mithya, you can strip down the ubuntu size.  windows on 10 gig is more or less possible
[01:31] <ant_> mithya: just give windows 3 GB and ubuntu the rest.
[01:31] <waxyfresh> mithya: depends on what you want to do
[01:31] <ant_> :)
[01:31] <Kronuz> hello
[01:31] <Kronuz> hey, how can I copy a DVD in ubuntu?
[01:31] <Kronuz> (a movie with css protection and stuff)
[01:31] <waxyfresh> Kronuz: yup
[01:31] <Kronuz> <.<
[01:31] <Kronuz> >.>
[01:31] <rbil> gonz0_ so you're starting a swapfile, but isn't the swap partition being used?
[01:31] <soundray> Kronuz: k9copy is supposed to be good
[01:31] <mithya> I primarily want to use XP for everything but Gimp on Ubuntu, I really enjoy the graphics editing program
[01:32] <bimberi> mithya: you can get GIMP for windows
[01:32] <waxyfresh> mithya: you can run gimp on xp
[01:32] <mithya> ahh ok
[01:32] <Kronuz> soundray, but for gnome? (I don't have KDE installed)
[01:32] <gonzo_> rbil: I used this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq; no, when I upgraded to 6.10 it deleted it :s
[01:32] <dgoodwin1976> Kronuz: wine with ripit4me, dvdshrink, and dvddecypter
[01:32] <mithya> i was unaware of that
[01:32] <soundray> Kronuz: it will run in gnome.
[01:32] <mithya> I'll do a search
[01:32] <gonzo_> ooops
[01:32] <mithya> thanks
[01:33] <aLeSD> hi all
[01:33] <waxyfresh> mithya: depends on what you want to do
[01:33] <waxyfresh> ubuntu 5.10 froze during install at :full name of new user,i cant get to any consols nothting no hard drive light activity nothing.any help?
[01:33] <aLeSD> I have a problem: how to install firefoc 2.0 ?
[01:33] <bimberi> mithya: yw, hopefully gimp.org will have pointers to the windows port
[01:33] <Kronuz> soundray, but I'll have to have KDE stuff installed
[01:33] <rbil> gonzo_ OH! I didn't know all this time it was a swapfile u were trying to use. But the swap partition shows up with fdisk
[01:33] <mithya> ok take care all
[01:33] <C`> Anyone here got 5.1 sound working???
[01:33] <gonzo_> yup
[01:33] <ant_> sudo apt-get install firefox
[01:33] <gonzo_> rbil: yup
[01:33] <soundray> Kronuz: yes, it will install some library dependencies.
[01:33] <waxyfresh> !firefox
[01:33] <ubotu> firefox is the default web-browser on Ubuntu. To install the latest version, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion Installing plugins: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxPlugins
[01:33] <gonzo_> rbil: sry
[01:33] <beg1689> how come such a popular distro always has such out of date packages?
[01:34] <shark-1> beg1689, feisty is gonna ubdate it all
[01:34] <soundray> beg1689: because the latest isn't necessarily the greatest
[01:34] <gonzo_> rbil: moved over to ubuntu cos my lappy can't handlw windows, and I enjoy something new
[01:34] <bruenig> beg1689, they aim for stability
[01:34] <Kronuz> there's no gnome app to copy a dvd?!
[01:34] <beg1689> well im trying to install something but it cant find libgphoto2 >= 1.3.0
[01:34] <sgentry6> beg1689: not to mention it's based off of debian
[01:34] <bruenig> Kronuz, xdvdshrink
[01:35] <C`> does anyone know how to get ubuntu to work as good as windows?
[01:35] <ant_> ??what??
[01:35] <shark-1> C' what are you trying to do
[01:35] <C`> in terms of sound ....
[01:35] <waxyfresh> ubuntu 5.10 froze during install at :type full name of new user,i cant get to any consols nothting no hard drive light activity nothing.any help?
[01:35] <aLeSD> ubotu: thanks
[01:35] <soundray> C`: just install it.
[01:35] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[01:35] <gonzo_> C': u u want it to work worse than it already is, lol?
[01:35] <rbil> gonzo_: and this command in fstab (after a reboot) doesn't work? /mnt/512Mb.swap none swap sw 0 0
[01:35] <apokryphos> !sound | C`
[01:35] <ubotu> C`: 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
[01:35] <C`> lol I'm just playin
[01:35] <C`> ya man I've tried everything
[01:35] <sgentry6> beg1689: http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/feisty/libs/libgphoto2-2
[01:36] <C`> it works with a speaker-test -6 channels command
[01:36] <apokryphos> C`: no, I don't believe you have.
[01:36] <C`> but not with apps
[01:36] <gonzo_> rbil: no it has the same effect as the /dev/hda5 command
[01:36] <shark-1> are ur speakers plugged in?
[01:36] <C`> yes
[01:36] <waxyfresh> bruenig: trolls?montain trolls or just your normal type?
[01:36] <soundray> waxyfresh: why are you installing an outdated version?
[01:36] <sgentry6> beg1689: hopefully that one will work for you :)
[01:36] <shark-1> are they on?
[01:36] <Kresjah> I quick and dirty question from a newbie. How to I backup X.org video driber?
[01:36] <beg1689> thank you, ill try it
[01:36] <C`> speaker-test -Dplug:surround51 -c6 -l1 -twav <--- that command works I hear output
[01:36] <Kresjah> s/driber/driver
[01:36] <C`> yes
[01:36] <shark-1> what are you trying to hear?
[01:36] <soundray> Kresjah: make a copy of /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:36] <shark-1> is alsa taking it up
[01:36] <C`> anything with 5.1
[01:37] <shark-1> brb
[01:37] <C`> nah like I tried with amarok, nothing, I tried with xmms, nothing etc
[01:37] <waxyfresh> soundray: its an old computer that my wife will use for just myspace/gaim and its all i got my cd burner busted
[01:37] <beg1689> bah
[01:37] <iMac_Support> Watch out, Google! If K-Fed is as good at developing search algorithms as he is at rapping, you've got well, nothing to worry about, I guess.
[01:37] <sgentry6> beg1689: http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/edgy/libs/libgphoto2-port0.en.html try that one if you want to use the edgy version rather than the feisty version
[01:37] <beg1689> it depends on other stuf i have old versions of
[01:37] <SammyF> hey there. how can I start conqoper or mordord (for example)? when I try as a user I lack the priviledges, when I try using sudo then bash doesn't find the files (even if I'm in the directory they are in, whcih is /usr/games)
[01:37] <bruenig> Kresjah, you can back up the whole xorg.conf with sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.old
[01:37] <Thiesen> Ubuntu isn't working as good as Windows. Ubuntu is working better.
[01:37] <pollywog> K-Fed got a job?
[01:37] <iMac_Support> http://lwn.net/images/conf/ols+ks2005/linus-fun.jpg lol
[01:38] <rbil> gonzo_: have u read near end of the article about turning off swap, recreating swap partition and then swapon -a ?
[01:38] <Kresjah> bruenig: But that only backs up the config, not the old driver itself, right?
[01:38] <bruenig> Kresjah, right
[01:38] <beg1689> is it posible to add the feisty repo just for the purpose of grabbing all the packages i need?
[01:38] <beg1689> for this one program
[01:38] <bruenig> beg1689, bad idea
[01:38] <gonzo_> yeh, I'll give it another go now
[01:38] <LjL> beg1689: bad idea
[01:38] <bruenig> beg1689, what do you need
[01:38] <beg1689> ok ok
[01:38] <YokoZar> beg1689: if you're talking about Wine go get the backports repo
[01:38] <Kresjah> bruenig: But it's the driver I'm going to replace, thus I need to backup the driver, not the config
[01:38] <beg1689> libgphoto >= 1.3.0
[01:38] <shark-1> ubuntu + widescreen = sexiness
[01:39] <bruenig> Kresjah, yeah my fault
[01:39] <beg1689> ok ;)
[01:39] <C`> ubuntu + no sound = sadness
[01:39] <YokoZar> beg1689: I'll be releasing a fix for Wine in a few hours
[01:39] <SammyF> shark-1, try ubuntu and dual head :)
[01:39] <soundray> waxyfresh: bad news indeed
[01:39] <aaaaaaaaaaa> hey anyone using feisty here?
[01:39] <soundray> waxyfresh: do you know about the CD-free installation methods?
[01:39] <ant_> i use ubuntu and my computer has sound.
[01:39] <C`> if ubuntu was a person would you have sex with it?
[01:39] <bruenig> beg1689, wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/libg/libgphoto2/libgphoto2-2_2.3.0-0ubuntu3~edgy2_i386.deb && sudo dpkg -i libgphoto2-2_2.3.0-0ubuntu3~edgy2_i386.deb
[01:39] <soundray> aaaaaaaaaaa: ask in #ubuntu+1
[01:39] <waxyfresh> soundray: nope
[01:39] <soundray> aaaaaaaaaaa: and get a non-annoying nick
[01:40] <ant_> no, cuz 1 in 4 people from africa have aids.
[01:40] <Prez_> I need several simultaneous hits on my site, is it ok if i post my url so a couple of you guys can hit it?  don't want to get banned for posting a url..

[01:40] <bruenig> beg1689, here is the other thing you need for wine: wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/libg/libgphoto2/libgphoto2-port0_2.3.0-0ubuntu3~edgy2_i386.deb && sudo dpkg -i libgphoto2-port0_2.3.0-0ubuntu3~edgy2_i386.deb

[01:40] <SammyF> shark-1, ahh .. yep. I had the luck that my boss was selling a 21'' IBM CRT for 50 euros :)
[01:40] <waxyfresh> ant_: please  be more tollerant
[01:40] <soundray> non`annoying`nic: only slightly ;)
[01:40] <shark-1> C' im just kidding

[01:40] <C`> I was about to uninstall
[01:41] <kghunt> ok I installed beryl and added it to the startup sessions. now gnome doesnt load how do i disable it from the root terminal in recovery mode?
[01:41] <slavik> where is the default GNOME session-script located?
[01:41] <flafla> can anyone suggest an mp3 player comparable to amarok?
[01:41] <soundray> pollywog: the SABDFL is South African
[01:41] <gonzo_> rbil: I can mount the swap after boot, but dosn't fstab make it so I dont have to type swapon /mnt/576Mb.swap after every boot?
[01:41] <beg1689> bruenig: thanks, worked like a charm
[01:41] <pollywog> soundray: oic
[01:41] <shark-1> C' i dont want you to take offensive of my sarcasm :)
[01:41] <someone1> hey, i need help setting up my wireless card on ubuntu 6.10, i have a dlink G520 rev b card, i can't run network-admin, it keeps telling me i don't have permission
[01:41] <bruenig> flafla, listen, exaile
[01:41] <someone1> even when i run it using gksu
[01:41] <SammyF> sigh ... anybody about conqoper and mordor?
[01:42] <shark-1> the name and slogan and everything is from africa
[01:42] <pollywog> well that's good
[01:42] <rbil> gonzo_: I still don't understand why u aren't just using the swap partition as opposed to a swapfile?
[01:42] <andre_pl> i just installed edgy on a toshiba satellite P4 w/ ATI Mobility 9000, install went fine, logging into gdm works, but gnome hangs with an empty grey window.
[01:42] <shark-1> just a question why is the pastebin on ubuntu.nl
[01:42] <storm-zen> Supposing my son shut off my computer right after a major install... is there any way to go back and get the error messages?
[01:42] <gonzo_> don't have a swap partition
[01:42] <slavik> pollywog: my xgl session doesn't crash ...
[01:42] <pollywog> slavik: on Beryl?
[01:42] <soundray> andre_pl: can you start a failsafe session (option in gdm)?
[01:42] <slavik> pollywog: correct
[01:42] <kghunt> problems booting after beryl installation any help?
[01:42] <waxyfresh> shark-1: then dont make racist/judgemental "jokes" in a room full of people whos natinalitys you dont know,or preferably dont make them at all
[01:42] <SammyF> storm-zen, hmm ... you're probably thankfull that it's just a supposition, right? :P
[01:42] <bruenig> kghunt, #ubuntu-effects
[01:43] <waxyfresh> ubuntu 5.10 froze during install at :type full name of new user,i cant get to any consols nothting no hard drive light activity nothing.any help?
[01:43] <Kronuz> soundray, so k9copy has decss support out of the box?
[01:43] <someone1> wireless help... anybody?
[01:43] <shark-1> waxyfresh, im sorry you are right
[01:43] <storm-zen> SammyF: Yeah... can't imagine if I really had a need for the information ...
[01:43] <andre_pl> soundray: no. same thing
[01:43] <waxyfresh> someone1: whats up?
[01:43] <ant_> waxy, aids doesnt have anything to do with race/nationality
[01:43] <gonzo_> it was def not mounting it on boot neways
[01:43] <Kresjah> How do I backup X.org video driver?
[01:43] <someone1> i can hold as long as i'm acknowledged, i understand there might be a line
[01:43] <SammyF> storm-zen, sorry .. I'm a linux noob, so I can't really help you except to try to cheer you up a bit
[01:43] <soundray> andre_pl: can you login on the console? (Ctrl-Alt-F1)
[01:43] <bruenig> someone1, you didn't even ask a question
[01:43] <pollywog> ant: more ppl should play with computers|Ubuntu instead
[01:43] <waxyfresh> shark-1: no problem
[01:44] <someone1> i just installed 6.10, and i needed to run the alternate install due to video driver issues, so after that, i ran in recover mode to set X up using VESA drivers
[01:44] <someone1> yes i did ask a question...
[01:44] <andre_pl> soundray: already there
[01:44] <storm-zen> SammyF: I'm a ubuntu noob... Installed it for said son so that he could "have games" ...
[01:44] <someone1> after that, i tried setting up my wireless, though during install i ahd set that up
[01:44] <bruenig> !enter
[01:44] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[01:44] <someone1> now i don't know how to set it up, i followed online docs, but it tells me to run apps i don't have permissino to run
[01:44] <waxyfresh> someone1: whats not working with your wireless
[01:44] <someone1> even in recover mode
[01:44] <soundray> andre_pl: the logs to check are $HOME/.xsession-errors and /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[01:45] <someone1> well, i can't connect to the internet, and i don't have a way to set it up so i can get it working, i can't laod the network-manager
[01:45] <waxyfresh> someone1: type sudo -su APPNAME
[01:45] <shark-1> someone1 cant you use sudo or su and run the sapp
[01:45] <andre_pl> soundray: no real errors. just about /dev/wacom
[01:45] <Crazy4Linux> Hi everyone... Im using ubuntu dapper, Im trying to use totem movie player, keep getting error that movie player doesnt have correct codecs, Im running gstreamer, what am I doing wrong?
[01:45] <tecta> in soundconverter the mp3 option is disabled
[01:45] <someone1> i've tried that, it keeps saying i don't have persmissions to write to the file
[01:45] <waxyfresh> someone1: you have the admin password?
[01:45] <bruenig> !codecs | Crazy4Linux

[01:45] <slavik> soundray: remember my boot issue? turns out the isntaller gave root=/dev/hda1 to the kernel instead of sda1 ... go figure
[01:45] <someone1> i do not have the admin password
[01:45] <waxyfresh> someone1: do you have a live cd?
[01:45] <SeanTater> I got my wireless to work (*kisses laptop*), but it's rtt is about 300 milliseconds -- that sucks! Any ideas what I shoudl tweak?
[01:45] <Crazy4Linux> thank you
[01:45] <bruenig> someone1, just use gksudo application, and then put your user password
[01:45] <waxyfresh> someone1: is the computer yours?
[01:45] <SeanTater>  /should/
[01:45] <linuxn00b> Coudl I get help installing a GUI on server?  No, I won't be keeping it, but it'd be useful to me for the time being.
[01:46] <someone1> yes, but it won't load, i needed to install using the alternate cd due to driver issues
[01:46] <storm-zen> andre_pl: You have an issue with a wacom tablet, too?
[01:46] <soundray> andre_pl: check 'df -h' and see if any of your partitions are full
[01:46] <IndyGunFreak> someone1: its your password.
[01:46] <andre_pl> nope
[01:46] <bruenig> linuxn00b, what do you have in mind? gnome, kde, xfce, full fledged or minimal
[01:46] <Kresjah> *sigh*
[01:46] <tecta> anyone know why?
[01:46] <soundray> slavik: have you reported that? It's probably worth doing.
[01:46] <someone1> either way, it won't let me load, i tried entering my passsword before
[01:46] <andre_pl> soundray: tons of room
[01:46] <waxyfresh> someone1: in the help section there should be something aboute recovering root passwords
[01:46] <tecta> i installed all the gstreamer stuff
[01:47] <slavik> soundray: launchpad?
[01:47] <IndyGunFreak> waxyfresh: i thought it was just your default password+
[01:47] <C`> tecta, why what
[01:47] <ant_> someone1 : how are you logged in if you dont have the password?>
[01:47] <soundray> ubotu, tell slavik about bugs
[01:47] <IndyGunFreak> if he hasn't changed it.
[01:47] <someone1> i have my password...
[01:47] <andre_pl> soundray: how do I install the best ATI Drivers for this card?
[01:47] <tecta> C`, mp3 option is disabled in soundconverter
[01:47] <linuxn00b> Anything, will work.  I'm familiar with KDE, but one is much the same as another.  I'm trying to build a router out of my linux box. ;)  Instructions online seem to use a GUI...
[01:47] <slavik> soundray: ty
[01:47] <soundray> andre_pl: create a new user with 'sudo adduser test' and login as test to see if the same issue arises
[01:47] <C`> oh damn i dunno man u use automatix?
[01:47] <someone1> well... funny story, when installing, i typed in a password w/ an apostrophe, then when i tried loggin in, it wouldn't work, so i loaded in recover mode
[01:47] <waxyfresh> IndyGunFreak: i think it says you can hange the root password with a live cd,
[01:47] <soundray> andre_pl: it's unlikely to be a driver issue if gdm starts.
[01:47] <someone1> did a sudo deluser, and then a sudo adduser
[01:48] <bruenig> ant_, admin password is a confusing term because other distros have a root password as well as a user password, so he was probably thinking you meant root when you said admin and since ubuntu has no root password...
[01:48] <greig_> whats the command to view any mounted/unmounted hdds please
[01:48] <SammyF> I'll just try it again : there are some applications I apparently cannot start (conqoper and mordor are just two examples). As a user I lack the authorisations, and when I use sudo APPNAME bash doesn't find the apliation, even if I'm in the directory. Any help?
[01:48] <soundray> greig_: sudo fdisk -l
[01:48] <linuxn00b> bruenig: Anything, will work.  I'm familiar with KDE, but one is much the same as another.  I'm trying to build a router out of my linux box. ;)  Instructions online seem to use a GUI...
[01:48] <greig_> soundray :  thanks
[01:48] <storm-zen> SammyF: Can "where" find them?
[01:48] <C`> too bad ubuntu isn't as good as windows
[01:48] <sorush20> I long for the day that a usefull popup would come up after a fresh install and ask me to install many impo things just with a chech list
[01:48] <waxyfresh> someone1: why not reinstall?make a real simple password that your keybored wont have issues with
[01:48] <bruenig> linuxn00b, well sudo apt-get install kde-core will give you a simple kde gui
[01:49] <C`> bah didn't get attention that time =\
[01:49] <someone1> :/
[01:49] <tecta> C`, u know why
[01:49] <linuxn00b> bruenig: Danke.  Start-x from term wil get it up and going once installed?
[01:49] <someone1> there's no way to get the network manager to load?
[01:49] <C`> lol
[01:49] <SammyF> storm-zen, aehm ... "where"? that's not a command I know (nor bash apparently)
[01:49] <someone1> sudo -su network-admin won't work?
[01:49] <bruenig> linuxn00b, probably
[01:49] <C`> tecta, you use automatix?
[01:49] <bruenig> !automatix
[01:49] <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
[01:49] <tecta> C`, No
[01:49] <ant_> bruenig was quick with that.
[01:49] <soundray> storm-zen: locate, whereis, which -- but "where" doesn't exist
[01:50] <C`> tecta, you can get the mp3 codecs from it, I used it and everything has support
[01:50] <storm-zen> sammyf Sorry... meant whereis...
[01:50] <bruenig> !automatix | C`
[01:50] <ubotu> C`: 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.

[01:50] <shark-1> remember automatix is unsupported and may sometimes cause problems
[01:50] <rEvolution27> how do I get write access to an ntfs usb hard drive?
[01:50] <andre_pl> soundray: works for test, not the other user though :(
[01:50] <C`> yes thx bruenig
[01:50] <SammyF> storm-zen, yes. It does
[01:50] <bruenig> !ntfs-3g | rEvolution27
[01:50] <ubotu> rEvolution27: ntfs-3g is is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. It has been extensively tested but please remember to keep backups of critical data.

[01:50] <qopi> !Mplayer
[01:50] <ubotu> mplayer is a media player. It resides in the mutiverse repository and can easily be installed via applications -> add/remove. For codecs try !codecs
[01:50] <tecta> C`, C is mad lol
[01:50] <Noah0504> haha, I never knew automatix was discouraged by the Ubuntu team.
[01:50] <Noah0504> I guess it makes sense though.
[01:50] <flafla> bruenig: looked at exaile and listen... tx for the reply
[01:51] <soundray> andre_pl: that's good news, because you've narrowed the problem down to the user config.
[01:51] <tecta> bruenig, i have lame and all gst plugins and gstreamer shouldnt that be enough
[01:51] <bruenig> flafla, they aren't equivalent certainly but they try
[01:51] <bruenig> with the lyrics and wikipedia and the such
[01:51] <gonzo_> d news, it is now working on the original partition!
[01:51] <waxyfresh> ubuntu 5.10 froze during install at :type full name of new user,i cant get to any consols nothting no hard drive light activity nothing.any help? sorry for repeating my self but my wife keeps asking to use my computer and will continue untill i get hers fixed.i dont like others touching becky um i mean my copmuter
[01:51] <linuxn00b> Next question, I have 3 NICs installed.  One onboard, a linksys, and an IBM.  From CLI, how do I determine which is the default in-use?
[01:51] <shark-1> Noah0504, automatix can sometimes lead to problems with upgrading and finding programs
[01:51] <storm-zen> sammyf does whereis still find the app if you use sudo?
[01:51] <waxyfresh> copmuter?
[01:52] <soundray> andre_pl: don't know which that would be, though, since it blocks both gnome and failsafe
[01:52] <SammyF> storm-zen, yes. it does too :/
[01:52] <pfsams1> answ
[01:52] <storm-zen> sammyf.. .hmm.. interesting.  Can't really help any more than that, sorry.
[01:52] <soundray> andre_pl: what did you change that brought this on?
[01:52] <andre_pl> soundray: nothing, fresh install
[01:52] <flafla> bruenig: yeah... noticed ;)  I generally prefer to stick with none KDE specific apps but for this one I'll stick with amarok hehe
[01:52] <andre_pl> very first boot
[01:52] <shark-1> waxyfresh, are you an op?
[01:52] <Noah0504> shark-1: I know, I just didn't know it was "officially" discouraged.
[01:52] <Flannel> waxyfresh: You ought to use a newer version.  Breezy only has a month left to live anyway.
[01:52] <waxyfresh> shark-1: op? no
[01:53] <ant_> !ops

[01:53] <shark-1> lol
[01:53] <ant30> what ?
[01:53] <Amaranth> ant_: yes?
[01:53] <shark-1> BAN!!!!
[01:53] <Flannel> waxyfresh: does the Breezy CD have an integrity checker?  I can't remember.
[01:53] <LjL> ant_: that command should ONLY be used in emergencies
[01:53] <PriceChild> he was showing shark-1 who the ops were :( LjL apokryphos :(
[01:53] <apokryphos> ant_: do NOT abuse that, please.
[01:53] <shark-1> amaranth why are you an amaranth
[01:53] <ant_> sorry
[01:53] <waxyfresh> Flannel: i dont know
[01:54] <bruenig> ah no kick, where is the fun
[01:54] <ant_> didnt know it would do that
[01:54] <soundray> andre_pl: in that case, copy /etc/skel to your home
[01:54] <apokryphos> ant_: recommend /cs access #ubuntu list instead
[01:54] <Flannel> waxyfresh: At the boot menu, does it give you an option to check the integrity of the CD?
[01:54] <Amaranth> shark-1: I've answered this before.
[01:54] <waxyfresh> brb
[01:54] <linuxn00b> Define emergency for this n00b?
[01:54] <ant_> that was like calling the cops or something
[01:54] <soundray> andre_pl: 'sudo cp -a /etc/skel /home/andre ; chown -R andre.andre /home/andre'
[01:54] <salah> what packages do I need to have to get gnome to start up? I already have xserver, gdm and gnome installed
[01:54] <waxyfresh> Flannel: ill check,is there a way to check for bad sectors before installing?
[01:54] <fizz_> anyone alive?
[01:54] <LjL> linuxn00b: channel flooding, very abusive behavior such as spam...
[01:54] <bimberi> ant_: congratulations.  you got the attention of more ops than i've seen for a while :)
[01:54] <shark-1> Amaranth, i know but i forgot who it was that kept asking that question so now i just do because i think your pretty kool
[01:54] <apokryphos> !anyone
[01:54] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?

[01:54] <Flannel> waxyfresh: That'll let you know (if it exists), if your CD is bad.

[01:56] <LjL> c`: this is the official Ubuntu *support* channel. everything else is offtopic.
[01:56] <C`> I'll take that as a no
[01:56] <EdgEy> to whoever recommended i make a script for bandwidth usage, thankyou, i have something basic running now :)
[01:57] <C`> sorry man just killing time till someone can help me :)
[01:57] <LjL> Rrandy: it certainly should, just about everything is possible on the live cd, as long as RAM doesn't fall short
[01:57] <salah> any idea to my question?
[01:57] <andre_pl> I deleted and recreated the ser and it does the SAME THING
[01:57] <andre_pl> thats messed up
[01:57] <Marupa> Is there a plugin for shoutcast for rhythmbox?
[01:57] <[Chiko_Gogo] > Wenas a Todo@s! :D

[01:58] <Marupa> to stream, I mean.
[01:58] <waxyfresh> Flannel: no luck
[01:58] <LjL> !es > [Chiko_Gogo]     ([Chiko_Gogo] , see the private message from Ubotu)
[01:58] <C`> linuxn00b, startx
[01:58] <Pollywog> salah you might try installing ubuntu-desktop
[01:58] <ootm> hi, how do i stop x starting on boot - i looked for /etc/inittab but its not there
[01:58] <Pollywog> then I think you will have everything
[01:58] <Rrandy> LjL: Great!  Is anyone able to tell me how to do that?  I know how to do it if I install, i'm not sure how to start with it disabled from the live cd.
[01:58] <soundray> SammyF: feel free to repeat the question if 10 minutes or more have passed
[01:58] <linuxn00b> It's not working. ;)
[01:58] <Flannel> waxyfresh: then yeah, it's most likely a bad disk.
[01:58] <PriceChild> linuxn00b, sudo /etc/init.d/kdm start
[01:58] <Pollywog> even with just installing gnome I think you would have what you need
[01:59] <salah> Pollywog, there it was, thanks a lot
[01:59] <[Chiko_Gogo] > de q hablais?
[01:59] <[Chiko_Gogo] > q es esto?
[01:59] <linuxn00b> Instead, how do I determine which nic to lug my cat5e into?  I'm not sure which is currently the one to use.

[01:59] <shark-1> its great there are many spanish speaking people as well as other ethnicities that use ubuntu. it brings everyone together and while many are different we are unified
[01:59] <Marupa> Trying to DJ, tried darkice, but that doesn't work with esd OR alsa.  I can't figure out how to get darkice to use alsa, anyway.  it always says it's not compiled in/can't find it.
[01:59] <soundray> ootm: 'sudo update-rc.d gdm -f remove'
[01:59] <SammyF> soundray, heh ... okay ;)
[01:59] <[Chiko_Gogo] > !es
[02:00] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[02:00] <[Chiko_Gogo] > q es eso?
[02:00] <ootm> soundray: i dont want to remove x, just prevent it from starting
[02:00] <[Chiko_Gogo] > alguien me entiende?
[02:00] <shark-1> Marupa, try terminatorX
[02:00] <soundray> ootm: that command will do what you want
[02:00] <SammyF> I'll just try it again : there are some applications I apparently cannot start (conqoper and mordor are just two examples). As a user I lack the authorisations, and when I use sudo APPNAME bash doesn't find the apliation, even if I'm in the directory. Any help?
[02:00] <greig_> can i create a short cut from /media folder?
[02:00] <soundray> ootm: 'sudo update-rc.d gdm -f defaults' to revert
[02:00] <Pollywog> Chiko: #ubuntu-es and you will be understood
[02:01] <PriceChild> [Chiko_Gogo]  /join #ubuntu-es
[02:01] <soundray> SammyF: are those games?
[02:01] <[Chiko_Gogo] > ok
[02:01] <Flannel> SammyF: kdesu or gksu for graphical programs.  That's likely your problem.  Delete the Xauthority and ICEauthority files in your homedir
[02:01] <andre_pl> soundray: i created 2 new users, both of which work fine, but deleted and recreated the same user 3 times and all three times he can't log in
[02:01] <Pollywog> ty PriceChild
[02:01] <ant_> soundray : will that allow me to boot into console rather than straight into x?
[02:01] <Pollywog> I should have said it like that
[02:01] <[Chiko_Gogo] > thank you PriceChild
[02:01] <ootm> soundray: tnx
[02:01] <PriceChild> [Chiko_Gogo] , good luck :)
[02:01] <SammyF> soundray, in this case yes. I just named those cause they were the problem I just had now
[02:02] <soundray> andre_pl: check and compare the permissions on the different home directories
[02:02] <andre_pl> soundray: k
[02:02] <soundray> ant_: yes
[02:02] <Marupa> shark-1, That's not casting my current stream.
[02:02] <SammyF> Flannel, console applications. Both are servers. I'll try deleting Xauthority and ICEauthority
[02:02] <shark-1> Marupa, oh
[02:02] <Flannel> SammyF: oh, they're servers?  Nevermind then.  That's not your issue.
[02:02] <PriceChild> !ops

[02:02] <ant_> soundray : man i've looked all over the place for something like that... everyone says to edit inittab.. its not there anymore
[02:03] <nalioth> PriceChild: yes?
[02:03] <Kooka> nacht zusammen || cya all and good night :)
[02:03] <SammyF> Flannel, okay ... thanks anyway :)
[02:03] <Amaranth> PriceChild: ?
[02:03] <linuxn00b> Look, this is beyond frustrating. I just want to know, from CLI, how to determine which device (of 3 installed) I'm using for internet.  Any help?  PLZ?
[02:03] <PriceChild> sorry.... #ubuntu-ops
[02:03] <Factory> Hey guys. Is there a reason I can't install any of the themese I find from this site: http://customize.org/gtk ?
[02:03] <soundray> ant_: inittab went away when upstart replaced sysvinit
[02:03] <SammyF> Flannel, my gfx card gave up on me, so I have an old one in there. therefore it's nethack or console stuff at the moment if I want to play :)
[02:04] <Flannel> SammyF: ah, welcome to my world!
[02:04] <Pollywog> linuxn00b: ifconfig -a
[02:04] <linuxn00b> Anyone?
[02:04] <Pollywog> sudo that
[02:04] <soundray> SammyF: mordor comes with several binaries. See them with 'ls /usr/games/mordor*'
[02:04] <linuxn00b> Sorry, scroll was messed up.
[02:04] <SammyF> Flannel, can I leave your world asap please? I was sooo happy when I got OGRE3D to compile yesterday, and now I can't even write anything for it ;)
[02:04] <Pollywog> linuxn00b: sudo ifconfig -a
[02:05] <shark-1> Ogre3d?
[02:05] <Flannel> SammyF: well, for most servers, you'll want to run with sudo.  Although, I imagine they have an init daemon. Yeah.
[02:05] <Flannel> SammyF: so, to start mordor, `sudo /etc/init.d/mordor restart`
[02:05] <ant_> soundray: lets say i ran that command and then later changed my mind.. how would i reverse that so that it booted back into x?
[02:05] <soundray> ant_: 'sudo update-rc.d gdm -f defaults' to revert
[02:05] <shark-1> SammyF, what is ogre 3d
[02:06] <SammyF> Flannel, indeed!
[02:06] <ant_> soundray : your a ubuntu hero
[02:06] <SammyF> Flannel, thanks!!
[02:06] <Flannel> SammyF: and, I suppose you mustve misspelt the first one.  Since, I don't see it in the repos.
[02:06] <soundray> ant_: I know
[02:06] <tecta> C`,
[02:06] <Stormx2> Hey folks. I've written a document as a html file. What would be the best way of spell checking it?
[02:06] <Flannel> SammyF: I assumed you meant konqueror, which is why I mentioned the --authority stuff.
[02:06] <shark-1> ant_ no amaranth is an ubuntu hero
[02:06] <C`> sup tecta
[02:06] <tecta> C`, u like automatix?
[02:06] <linuxn00b> After installing kde-core, still can't get GUI to load up?
[02:06] <Flannel> Stormx2: aspell could.  I'm sure there's GUI stuff too.
[02:06] <soundray> shark-1: there can only be one
[02:07] <ant_> shark-1 : the geeks are out today...
[02:07] <SammyF> shark-1, Ogre3d is an open source object oriented 3D engine. a very good one, and it runs under MacOSX, Win and Linux . check ogre3d.org if you want. some very nifty stuff there :)
[02:07] <Pollywog> linuxn00b: did you restart the session manager?
[02:07] <Amaranth> soundray: I win. :)
[02:07] <Pollywog> do /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[02:07] <Pollywog> do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[02:07] <Ademan> ew ogre3d
[02:07] <shark-1> SammyF, is it for games?
[02:07] <SammyF> Flannel, the other one is conquest. the manual says to start "conqoper" to setup a game.
[02:07] <linuxn00b> pollywog: No. Humor me and elaborate on how to do so?
[02:07] <Ademan> shark-1: its for whatever you need rendered
[02:08] <Stormx2> ChanServ giveth ops, ChanServ taketh away. You lose too, Amaranth.
[02:08] <Ademan> well whatever you need rendered poorly
[02:08] <FreeKFC_Guy> is there any offline web browseing technology available in ubuntu?
[02:08] <Pollywog> linuxn00b: scroll up a few lines
[02:08] <ant_> all hail chanserv
[02:08] <jva> can anyone tell me which packages do i need to play movies, mp3s and etc?
[02:08] <Amaranth> Stormx2: ChanServ giveth on command :)
[02:08] <Factory> Hey guys. Is there a reason I can't install any of the themese I find from this site: http://customize.org/gtk ?
[02:08] <Pollywog> sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[02:08] <SammyF> shark-1, principally, yes. Although I wrote a 3D file explorer with it once, and that didn't really qualify as a game (it was for Windows though)
[02:08] <C`> tecta, I've had no problems with it, however if they don't support it here I won't promote it
[02:08] <Ademan> anyone familiar with "peer guradian" know if there's a free equivalent?
[02:08] <jva> because it currently says it does not have the appropriate decoders
[02:08] <shark-1> SammyF, make one for ubuntu
[02:08] <Amaranth> Factory: looks like they all need different theme engines
[02:08] <Stormx2> OOo is so ugly...
[02:09] <soundray> FreeKFC_Guy: wwwoffle for example -- find others with 'apt-cache search web proxy'
[02:09] <SammyF> shark-1, there is an #ogre3d channel on freenet btw, if you want to know more
[02:09] <Factory> Thank you amaranth
[02:09] <linuxn00b> pollywog: "/etc/inti.d/gdm restart" command not found
[02:09] <Amaranth> Factory: which you need to find a package for or compile, theme engines are regular C code
[02:09] <Pollywog> FreeKFC_Guy: curl?
[02:09] <Amaranth> Factory: the murrina engine is the main one you want to look for
[02:09] <Pollywog> linuxn00b: are you using KDE?
[02:09] <SammyF> shark-1, once I get a new shiny gfx card I probably might do something similar, yes
[02:09] <Pollywog> or Gnome
[02:09] <Factory> might that be in the ubuntu repos, Amallya ?
[02:09] <Factory> er
[02:09] <Factory> Amaranth,
[02:09] <Flannel> SammyF: I'd try "conquest", "conqinit", or maybe "conquestsh", juding by the files in the package.  Try "man conquest" though, that might give you hte command
[02:09] <soundray> linuxn00b: inti?
[02:10] <Ademan> Ogre3D code is portable, i dunno why you couldn't recompile it for linux...
[02:10] <FreeKFC_Guy> i just saw video about apollo is i thought there might be something available on ubuntu
[02:10] <Amaranth> Factory: only in the development version
[02:10] <Pollywog> linuxn00b: init
[02:10] <Factory> I see. Thank you
[02:10] <Amaranth> Factory: in 6.06 or 6.10 you have to compile it yourself
[02:10] <Amaranth> Factory: unless gnome-look.org has a deb
[02:10] <linuxn00b> Pollywog: I'm using Ubuntu Server.  Trying to install a GUI (temporarily).  I was told to apt-get kde-ciore and that would do it, but no luck thus far. ;)
[02:10] <Pollywog> if I said inti it was a typo sorry
[02:10] <Marupa> Is there any sort of utility to copy hwplug:0,0 to /dev/dsp so that I can grab it from there instead of dealing with DarkIce's lack of ALSA support?
[02:10] <Pollywog> sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[02:11] <m1r_0> what is good rss reader program for ubuntu ?
[02:11] <Pollywog> oh then do /etc/init.d/kdm restart
[02:11] <Amaranth> linuxn00b: i bet if you try to install gnome-panel and metacity you'll pull in enough to get some sort of X desktop
[02:11] <Factory> Amaranth, but it will be in feisty? now that's good news =)
[02:11] <Flannel> linuxn00b: If you're installing a GUI, you probably want to go with something a bit more lightweight than KDE.  Maybe try fluxbox? or even xfce?
[02:11] <linuxn00b> pollywog: Sorry, that was a typo.  It was "init" on my linux box.
[02:11] <SammyF> Ademann, because I wrote it like 2 years ago, it was my first Ogre3D programm, so the code is rather nasty, and I used some weird lib back then, that doesn't exist for Linux. besides, I generally don't like to rehash something I already did :)
[02:11] <Amaranth> Factory: yep, it's in universe
[02:11] <shark-1> linuxn00b, have u tried sudo apptitude ubuntu-desktop?
[02:11] <mixium> l
[02:11] <Flannel> linuxn00b: you'll also need an xserver
[02:11] <Pollywog> linuxn00b: see what some other ppl are saying to you
[02:11] <Factory> Amaranth, now that is good news =D
[02:11] <m1r_0> some good rss reader program ?*
[02:12] <Pollywog> I think you still have to install a desktop or something
[02:12] <shark-1> factory u trying murrine engine?
[02:12] <ant_> ubuntu-desktop is installed with the core no?
[02:12] <Flannel> ant_: No.
[02:12] <Pollywog> I think so
[02:12] <Pollywog> oic
[02:12] <shark-1> not on server version right?
[02:12] <Factory> shark-1, Yessir
[02:13] <iAmTheDave> is there any reason my ubuntu net install would be getting stuck on the "select and install software" at 6% (both a laptop regular install and vmware on a PC)
[02:13] <ad0le> is there a specific package or documentation for the nvidia 96xx series of drivers. I can only get it to work by installing the nvidia installer and then as soon as I reboot it complains that the driver version doesnt match the X version
[02:13] <soundray> m1r_0: have you tried 'apt-cache search rss reader'?
[02:13] <Flannel> shark-1: not in a "core" at any rate.
[02:13] <m1r_0> no soundray
[02:13] <Rrandy> Can someone point me in the direction of a way to turn off ipv6 in the live cd, without doing any installation of files?
[02:13] <m1r_0> will do
[02:13] <m1r_0> ty
[02:14] <anandanbu> hi
[02:14] <shark-1> tis a shame schools dont use ubuntu
[02:14] <soundray> Rrandy: 'sudo rmmod ipv6'
[02:14] <shark-1> could save lots of money
[02:14] <Pollywog> is there some advantage to using something other than module-assistant to install nvidia drivers on Edgy?
[02:14] <Pollywog> I see that some ppl are using something else
[02:14] <Rrandy> soundray: it tells me it's in use when I do that.
[02:15] <shark-1> Pollywog, are you trying to install the drivers?
[02:15] <anandanbu> i have installed amarok in ubuntu edgy and i'm experiencing problems in playing mp3 files can someone help me
[02:15] <Pollywog> no, I am wondering why ppl use other methods when module-assistant will do it
[02:15] <m1r_0> what rss reader u prefer ?
[02:15] <ant_> Pollywog : by module-assistant you mean something like envy?
[02:15] <Pollywog> yes
[02:15] <Pollywog> why envy?
[02:15] <shark-1> dun even know what module-assistant is and i dunno what rss is either
[02:16] <Pollywog> I did not use envy but many people ask about it
[02:16] <ant_> automation i asume
[02:16] <Pollywog> I did not know what it was until today
[02:16] <Pollywog> oic
[02:16] <soundray> Rrandy: okay, try this:
[02:16] <TSWoodV> !beryl
[02:16] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[02:16] <Pollywog> I have to keep up with the new installers
[02:17] <ant_> automation is close to lazyness though
[02:17] <mixium> Hi, does anyone know in which of the firefox packages the original bookmarks are stoed?
[02:17] <abasinisvacant> question:  how can i change the icons for my programs?
[02:17] <soundray> Rrandy: 'sudo invoke-rc.d networking stop ; echo alias net-pf-10 off | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/bad_list ; sudo rmmod ipv6 ; sudo invoke-rc.d networking start'
[02:17] <Pollywog> abasinisvacant: yes left click the icon if it is on the desktop, click properties
[02:18] <abasinisvacant> pollywog, then?
[02:18] <Pollywog> if you use KDE you can use menuedit to change them in the menus
[02:18] <z3r0x> hi guys
[02:18] <abasinisvacant> pollywog, how?
[02:18] <soundray> Rrandy: not tested, I hope I haven't made a mistake
[02:18] <z3r0x> is it possible to migrate a amd64 version of ubuntu to a 32bit version without new install?
[02:18] <Amaranth> abasinisvacant: In gnome right click on "Applications" in the panel and choose Edit Menus
[02:19] <Pollywog> abasinisvacant: when you right click, choose properties and you will see a picture of the currently used icon.  Click it and you can then change the icon
[02:19] <soundray> z3r0x: no, all the binaries are different
[02:19] <Rrandy> soundray: awesome, thanks, I'll give that a try.  It's at least a start.  the "invoke-rc.d" is something I didn't know.
[02:19] <soundray> Rrandy: you can use "/etc/init.d/networking stop", same effect
[02:19] <z3r0x> soundray: ok... thx
[02:19] <abasinisvacant> thanks pollywog, i'm good now
[02:20] <Pollywog> am I imagining it or is gnome suddently gaining popularity?
[02:20] <Rrandy> I did do that. ..
[02:20] <soundray> z3r0x: consider setting up a 32bit chroot environment.
[02:20] <Rrandy> well, it's worth trying again, maybe I missed a step.
[02:20] <Rrandy> soundray: thanks again.
[02:20] <z3r0x> soundray: I already have one...
[02:20] <ant_> gnome is friendly
[02:20] <Pollywog> it is now but wasn't always friendly
[02:21] <Pollywog> I was surprised when I tried it, that it has improved so much
[02:21] <soundray> z3r0x: not happy? I was considering setting one up, so please tell me.
[02:22] <z3r0x> soundray: not really.. need to keep "two" systems up2date... it's working well but it's not what I want :)
[02:23] <soundray> z3r0x: I see. Did you use a guide to setup the chroot? Did you have to tweak it a lot?
[02:23] <nick_> my dvd's will play in gxine but not totem can anyone help me
[02:23] <shark-1> nick_ use gxine?
[02:24] <tecta> nick_, get libdvdcss2
[02:24] <nick_> i want to use totem
[02:24] <Pollywog> is there a guide to setting up chroots?
[02:24] <nick_> i have that  plugin thats why it works in gxine
[02:24] <z3r0x> soundray: I used this one -> http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/32-Bit_chroot ...didn't have to tweak a lot
[02:24] <tecta> nick_, do u have totem-gstreamer or totem-xine
[02:24] <nick_> tecta there is a difference
[02:24] <Pollywog> it's probably in German right?
[02:24] <tecta> nick_, big diff..
[02:25] <tecta> nick_, i recommend totem-xine
[02:25] <l90bpm> what channel is the ubuntu (beryl) whatever you call it..  my mind just went blank?
[02:25] <nick_> i just have the one labled movie player
[02:25] <soundray> z3r0x: great, I'll get to exercise my German as well ;)
[02:25] <arnina> hello ,guys
[02:25] <kalorin> beh, totem
[02:25] <bruenig> l90bpm, #ubuntu-effects
[02:25] <kalorin> ditch that and get vlc
[02:25] <nick_> from teh default install
[02:25] <l90bpm> ty
[02:25] <kalorin> much better
[02:25] <soundray> !chroot | Pollywog
[02:25] <ubotu> Pollywog: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot use this to build 32 bit environments on a 64 bit box
[02:25] <z3r0x> soundray: :) have fun..
[02:25] <tecta> kalorin, vlc is ok but it doesnt have all the small things i like
[02:25] <Pollywog> soundray: ty
[02:25] <kalorin> it works
[02:25] <iAmTheDave> i'm on a no-cdrom-having no-usb-booting laptop, stuck at 6% install - i selected the "ubuntu" package and it seems to be crapping out
[02:25] <kalorin> totem doesn't for me on a lot of stuff
[02:26] <tecta> kalorin, so does totem
[02:26] <iAmTheDave> any thoughts?
[02:26] <kalorin> I'll take functionality over failure any day
[02:26] <iAmTheDave> or if i just go straight to shell is there an apt package that will install the ubuntu system (UI and all)?
[02:27] <soundray> See you later guys -- gute Nacht z3r0x
[02:28] <ant_> soundray the rc.d hero
[02:28] <soundray> :D
[02:29] <Flannel> iAmTheDave: you mean a full linux CLI environment?
[02:29] <Pollywog> can one use a chroot environment to test Feisty on an Edgy system?
[02:30] <iAmTheDave> Flannel: well apparently the base install system is installed - don't know if it'll boot though...
[02:30] <iAmTheDave> may be able to get it to install grub
[02:30] <iAmTheDave> and then yeah - CLI
[02:30] <mage___> Pollywog: only issues with chroot jails are local services, gdm and uh, maybe edgy has a genetically inferior kernel
[02:30] <Flannel> iAmTheDave: Yes, assuming you can get a CLI install complete, you can install a full ubuntu system.
[02:30] <Pollywog> oic
[02:30] <Flannel> iAmTheDave: ah, during an install, no.  I dont think cutting out of an install incrementally like that will work too well.
[02:30] <iAmTheDave> Flannel: is there documentation for doing that?  or perhaps a single apt call?
[02:30] <iAmTheDave> Flannel: well, i'd kill install and then run from the CLI
[02:31] <Toma-> Im thinkin about getting a new GFX card and wondering it ATI cards are worth looking at? Are the drivers still horrid rubbish?
[02:31] <bruenig> iAmTheDave, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[02:31] <iAmTheDave> the "select and install software" asked me if i wanted ubuntu, kubuntu, LAMP, etc. - said the "base" system was installed (so i assume that's kernel and a runnable CLI system
[02:31] <Tsuroerusu> Anyone in here using Linux on a ThinkPad X31?
[02:31] <iAmTheDave> ubuntu-desktop - ok i'll give that a go
[02:31] <bacho> I PREFER GNOME!! is more stable!
[02:32] <roachclit> hey guys I just downloaded and extracted a file and I went to the directory, and I want to run the program, the program is Sunbird, do I just type Sunbird???
[02:32] <mage___> Pollywog: there is some problems with trying to use a debootstrap install of ubuntu normally, as it doesn't ask you questions on timezones, network config etc
[02:32] <Flannel> iAmTheDave: well, ubuntu-desktop is the package.  But you'll also need some other stuff that u-d doesn't specifically include.  ubuntu-standard and ubuntu-minimal would be other metapackages to be sure you had.  Um,
[02:32] <zahlerstreik> sup all
[02:32] <zahlerstreik> quick question
[02:33] <mage___> roachclit: ./Sunbird maybe
[02:33] <bruenig> roachclit, assuming it is all precompiled, you can ./sunbird or whatever the binary is claled
[02:33] <bruenig> called
[02:33] <roachclit> okay let me try that
[02:33] <zahlerstreik> are there any slick themes like those gentoo guys have with all those cool effects and awesome design, for ubuntu?
[02:33] <iAmTheDave> Flannel: so i should do a search for the ubuntu- meta-packages
[02:33] <Pelo> zahlerstreik,  are you talking about beryl ?
[02:33] <iAmTheDave> and install most of those (with some degree of paying attention)
[02:33] <zahlerstreik> Pelo: What's beryl? ^_^
[02:33] <Flannel> iAmTheDave: well, there'll be more than just those few.  But those three are ones you want, and they're independant.  (there's others like ubuntu-sound, that'll be included with ubuntu-desktop)
[02:33] <voidmage> !beryl
[02:34] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[02:34] <zahlerstreik> ah
[02:34] <voidmage> translated: awesome
[02:34] <Pelo> zahlerstreik,  the package the lest you make themes with transparents boders,  and animations and stuff like that
[02:34] <zahlerstreik> so if i get configured up with my fglrx drivers and such i should be able to use syaptics to get beryl?
[02:34] <cyros> hey dudes
[02:34] <Pelo> zahlerstreik,  yes
[02:35] <mage___> should I ask questions about the init system in here or ubuntu-devel
[02:35] <mage___> duuuuude
[02:35] <shindig__> anyone know of anything in linux that can play and list shoutcast video streams?
[02:35] <Factory> my ubuntu internet connection just flaked out for absolutely no clear reason. Anyone have a clear reason why?
[02:35] <TreaclyWheat>  /server irc.torrentleech.org:7011
[02:35] <Factory> Only on one computer though.. this one's obviously still online
[02:35] <EdgEy> how can i make something run at a certain time, like windows has "at"
[02:36] <bieb> cron
[02:36] <Pelo> EdgEy,  cron
[02:36] <Flannel> !cron | EdgEy
[02:36] <ubotu> EdgEy: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto  -  There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm
[02:36] <mage___> tempted to go over there and call him a bad noob
[02:39] <yell0w> dee dee dee ...
[02:39] <kalorin> dancing with the stars :)
[02:39] <Factory> I still have access to my router. Is there a reason why one of my hosts can't use the internet?
[02:39] <Pelo> Factory,  wath were you useing the computer for ?
[02:39] <Pelo> internet wise
[02:40] <AliBen> I'm trying to install 6.10 on an iMac... believe its a g3. It appeared to install just fine but boots very slowly and runs too slowly to actually do anything... anyone have any suggestions or know something I should read on the subject?
[02:40] <zahlerstreik> Factory: is it only your ubuntu / new update of ubuntu that doesnt work?
[02:40] <Factory> Pelo: browsing the web, gaim, other various other application layer programs.
[02:40] <zahlerstreik> AliBen: get a PC
[02:40] <zahlerstreik> ^__^
[02:40] <AliBen> lol
[02:40] <AliBen> i know
[02:40] <Factory> zahlerstreik, negative, just apparently stopped working
[02:40] <DM|> Is there anyway to reset the sound server?
[02:40] <AliBen> this is just an old computer at my parents house that im trying to get some use of
[02:40] <Factory> zahlerstreik, the user says it was flakey all day
[02:40] <Pelo> Factory,  I qwas thinking that maybe your isp might have decided to block p2p traffic to your location
[02:41] <Pelo> but that's probably not it,
[02:41] <zahlerstreik> AliBen: try disabling the USB module, ive heard of that before
[02:41] <Factory> Pelo, Probably not, no.
[02:41] <Factory> especially since it's only one client on my network.
[02:41] <Factory> And they can still access the router
[02:41] <zahlerstreik> Factory: If you can get a dhcp addr i would imagine it is a problem with the network, not the client. (but im usually wrong about anything linux)
[02:41] <cyros> AliBen: try someting like xubuntu or fluxbuntu
[02:41] <zahlerstreik> fluxbuntu
[02:42] <zahlerstreik> is there a release yet?
[02:42] <zahlerstreik> ive wanted to try that
[02:42] <Factory> zahlerstreik, actually, it's a static address
[02:42] <zahlerstreik> oh wow
[02:42] <cyros> i tried one of the beta or whatever they were and i was pretty sweet
[02:42] <zahlerstreik> Factory, it's an ubuntu box, right?
[02:43] <Factory> zahlerstreik, haha, well I _am_ in #ubuntu asking this question, aren't I? =p
[02:43] <zahlerstreik> ok
[02:43] <AliBen> i had also tried kubuntu but there it seemed to hang at the login screen
[02:43] <zahlerstreik> just making sure
[02:43] <Factory> Be kinda silly to be running solaris =)
[02:43] <AliBen> ill give xubuntu a try i suppose
[02:43] <zahlerstreik> hm
[02:43] <Pelo> AliBen,   xubuntu is the ... "light" one
[02:43] <zahlerstreik> try usin dhcp and just giving it the same address
[02:43] <pi-meson> Hey guys, I've got a toasted ext2 filesystem here -- can anyone recommend some recovery tools?
[02:44] <LjL> !testdisk | pi-meson
[02:44] <ubotu> pi-meson: testdisk: Partition scanner and disk recovery tool. In component universe, is optional. Version 6.4.1-1 (edgy), package size 459 kB, installed size 1232 kB
[02:44] <Factory> zahlerstreik, uh. That's impossible.,
[02:44] <LjL> pi-meson: it won't restore it, it will just hopefully rescue some files
[02:44] <Factory> zahlerstreik,  But I WILL set it to dhcp instead and try that
[02:45] <zahlerstreik> Factory: what do you use for DHCP on your network
[02:45] <zbadone> has anybody got the RocketFish bluetooth mouse to scroll ?
[02:45] <lufis> I want to use openbox as my desktop manager (it DOES do that, right? :P) It's running as my window manager, and if i right-click on the desktop, i get an openbox menu, but I want it to handle the desktop in place of nautilus. How to do this?
[02:45] <zahlerstreik> you can map a MAC to an IP and only give that IP to the specified mac, with most servers
[02:45] <AliBen> right... so hopefully its running so slow because the mac cant handle gnome or kde?
[02:45] <Factory> zahlerstreik, Well, I think on ANY network, dhcp give the computer a randomly generated Ip address.
[02:45] <Factory> zahlerstreik, well not totally randomly
[02:45] <eyecue> does ubuntu come with sendmail as a base binary ?
[02:45] <zahlerstreik> Factory: right, but most you can configure
[02:46] <Factory> zahlerstreik, AH, well if that is true, I have no idea.
[02:46] <sbalneav> eyecue: no, it's not installed by default.
[02:46] <zahlerstreik> Factory: the default windows one lets you map MACs to IPs
[02:46] <eyecue> roger that
[02:46] <eyecue> best practice installation methos is what
[02:46] <eyecue> s/methos/method
[02:46] <zahlerstreik> but chances are dhcp/static is not the problem
[02:46] <zbadone> eyecue, its postfix
[02:46] <eyecue> by default?
[02:46] <eyecue> or as a suggested replacement?
[02:46] <eyecue> i just need to get outbound mail setup
[02:46] <zbadone> yes, postfix be defeault
[02:47] <eyecue> to take localhost on port 25
[02:47] <EdgEy> what is wrong with this? i get 'error cannot install cronjob, bad minute'
[02:47] <eyecue> roger that
[02:47] <zahlerstreik> if it's just crappy service check the cable plant, and watch the user's traffic for a while
[02:47] <eyecue> thank you

[02:48] <zbadone> LTS Long term support
[02:48] <Factory> zahlerstreik, alright, setting it to dhcp worked. Any reason why static DIDN'T work that you can think of?
[02:48] <harpette> zbadone: so far, i got that. what's it mean?
[02:48] <yell0w> !lts | harpette
[02:48] <ubotu> harpette: LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server.
[02:48] <digi_> shark-1: im ok what do you need?
[02:48] <ksumoe> goodevening...

[02:49] <zahlerstreik> Factory: probably the prog u use
[02:49] <zbadone> LTS, Long term support, what dont you understand about that?? :D
[02:49] <Pelo> harpette,  LTS is long term support,    there is a new version of ubuntu about every 6 monts,  lts version will kept getting updated untill the next lts version,  the other don'T get updates for such a long time after the newer version is released

[02:51] <zbadone> pelo, good point, but you are the one who responded! :D :D
[02:51] <yell0w> harpette, depends on what you want to do
[02:51] <efface> zahlerstreik, type sudo apt-get install beryl-manager

[02:52] <Pelo> !beryl zahlerstreik
[02:52] <harpette> Pelo: i just located the #easyubuntu channel here, so i checked out their web site. Would that help too?
[02:52] <sbalneav> digi_: Sure, udev rules, hald, etc.  But rather than run through all that, why do you need to know?  Are you having a problem?
[02:52] <Pelo> !beryl | zahlerstreik
[02:52] <ubotu> zahlerstreik: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects

[02:53] <zahlerstreik> I KNOW LOLZ
[02:53] <zbadone> zahlerstreik, goto Beryl web site, try google with your video card
[02:53] <digi_> sbalneav: yes a small one
[02:53] <Pelo> harpette,  easyubuntu is a prog to install some stuff that's not in ubuntu persay,  it's not a easier version of ubuntu
[02:53] <LjL> zahlerstreik: then STOP ASKING in the wrong channel!
[02:53] <mattycoze> wtf is my bios beeping at me for?
[02:53] <zahlerstreik> lol
[02:53] <zahlerstreik> but i want the ubuntu repo for beryl
[02:53] <zbadone> Ubuntu has a guide or two of the Beryl/Compiz installation
[02:54] <binarydigit> mattycoze: it's obviously very angry with you
[02:54] <harpette> Pelo: i understand that. was just asking if i should install it afterward
[02:54] <LjL> zahlerstreik, type /join #ubuntu-effects , and ask there, period.
[02:54] <Pelo> zahlerstreik,  follow the link,  you should get instructions for the repos in it
[02:54] <zbadone> There is a way to add a respo for the packages
[02:54] <Pelo> harpette,  sure why not
[02:54] <LjL> zahlerstreik: or just look at the topic of it, it's crammed with howtos
[02:54] <mattycoze> binarydigit but but

[02:54] <ksumoe> Question: Why can't I install NetworkManager.  Add/Remove Applications says that it can't be installed on i386 type architectures.
[02:55] <sbalneav> digi_: Is there something on it?
[02:55] <eyecue> just ran an apt-get on postfix, i think it doesnt like the fact there sno root group ?
[02:55] <DShepherd> How can I get an audio file to burn across two CDs?
[02:55] <digi_> sbalneav: yea one folder
[02:55] <bimberi> eyecue: yes. that's how I'd read that
[02:56] <FurthuR> DShepherd : split it?
[02:56] <sbalneav> digi_: And what's in that folder?  Something you recognize?  What's it called?
[02:56] <harpette> so, pelo, did you say that i should just install the regular version, rather than the LTS one?
[02:56] <ksumoe> nevermind i figured it out
[02:56] <eyecue> should i run the apt get again with some custom configure args, or will dpkg command work postinstall?
[02:56] <zbadone> zahlerstreik, I've just finished install Beryl on both a Nvidia and an ATI box
[02:56] <eyecue> i assume its going to be half broken at the moment
[02:56] <DShepherd> FurthuR, can't I have the audio simply end on one CD then continue to another?
[02:56] <eyecue> although files did get installed in /etcpostfix
[02:56] <Pelo> harpette,  yes, there are a few thing in the latest that work better then in the lts
[02:56] <digi_> sbalneav: hda2 is my root directory

[02:57] <AzMoo> Hi, I'm looking for a basic program that will sit in my taskbar and work as a timer so that I can track my working hours. I just want to be able to press start when I begin, pause it for breaks and stop when I'm done. Anybody know anything like this?
[02:57] <harpette> haha
[02:58] <bimberi> eyecue: do you have a root group? 'grep root /etc/group'
[02:58] <eyecue> uh, question
[02:58] <eyecue> i just checked
[02:58] <eyecue> why the fuck does it say lroot :)
[02:58] <ardchoille> AzMoo: I use planner for that
[02:58] <LjL> !language
[02:58] <eyecue> i take it thats not correct? :)

[02:58] <AzMoo> ardchoille, planner, eh? I'll take a look.
[02:58] <sbalneav> digi_: can you paste the output of the "mount" command to the pastebin?
[02:58] <eyecue> i take it the 'correct' default root group is root, not lroot
[02:58] <sbalneav> !pastebin
[02:58] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[02:58] <harpette> Pelo, yell0w, zbadone: OK thanks. Will try the regular, non-LTS download.

[02:59] <fouadz> Hi , changed the ServerRoot in apache2.conf and performed a restart on the apache service , but it doesnt take effect at all ... it still take the default apache2 serverroot ...any idea about how to fix this ?
[02:59] <digi_> sbalneav: where is the pastebin?
[02:59] <FurthuR> AzMoo : simply search synaptics for "timer"

[02:59] <jlulian38> How can I restart apache under ubuntu
[02:59] <jlulian38> ?
[02:59] <zahlerstreik> wow what the hell i think ubuntu hates me. i just installed edgy and fglrx and ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg like ive had to do for dapper and now i boot to a black screen
[02:59] <bruenig> AzMoo, very simply program called stopwatch, it isn't a panel applet though
[02:59] <bruenig> s/ly/le/
[02:59] <bimberi> eyecue: first line in my /etc/group is "root:x:0:"
[02:59] <fouadz> jlulian38, apache2ctl restart

[02:59] <jlulian38> xD
[02:59] <slavik> anyone here with an nvidia 8800 card?
[02:59] <eyecue> uh
[03:00] <eyecue> i cant ctrl-c out of an apt-get?
[03:00] <ardchoille> AzMoo: I think the app bruenig mentioned is better for your task than planner. Planner is kinda for big multiple projects.
[03:00] <jlulian38> you cuntrl-wait
[03:00] <zahlerstreik> lol
[03:00] <|Amon|> How do I install NSV for nix with aptitude?
[03:00] <FurthuR> ctrl-z?
[03:00] <eyecue> i hope that was </sarcasm>
[03:00] <digi_> sbalneav: ok posted under digi_ as text
[03:00] <eyecue> nope, -d -z -c no go :)
[03:00] <sbalneav> digi_: You need to paste the url here
[03:01] <LjL> AzMoo: actually, search synaptic for "time spent" (or just type "apt-cache search time spent" in a shell..). there's a few, though they all sound somewhat overkill perhaps
[03:01] <FurthuR> eyecue : if ur setting up you might not wanna interupt anything lol
[03:01] <eyecue> seriously, can i cancel this apt-get ?
[03:01] <zahlerstreik> anybody have a suggestion?
[03:01] <zahlerstreik> wow what the hell i think ubuntu hates me. i just installed edgy and fglrx and ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg like ive had to do for dapper and now i boot to a black screen
[03:01] <shark-1> the one thing stopping my dad from switching to linux is that he is a realitor and the MLS house listing site that he uses only works in IE is this due to bad webdesign?

[03:02] <Raziekiel> Quick question, is there a linux port of ventrilo, or some way to get ventrilo to work in Ubuntu?

[03:05] <i3d> anyone knows how to find out all supported frambuffer mode?
[03:05] <LjL> AzMoo: also, i've never tried it, but maybe you could have a look at workrave. it's a different kind of tools, but it looks like it has the ability to detect whether you're at the computer or not by itself (which sounds like a good thing to me, then ymmv i suppose), and looks very configurable, so perhaps it can be made to suit your needs. oh, and the simplest of all thing i've found is the "stopwatch" package
[03:05] <Pelo> jexdawg,   have you tried, deleting that printer from the cups windows and re-installing it again
[03:06] <FurthuR> lol stupid question... I send a pm with /msg in xchat right?
[03:06] <jexdawg> pelo, yes. twice.
[03:06] <FurthuR> i never use irc
[03:06] <bruenig> FurthuR, /msg nick text
[03:06] <sbalneav> digi_: You've got some whacky stuff there.  Did you manually add some of that?

[03:08] <Pelo> m1_r0, this isnT' the forum  I mean do a search in www.ubuntuforums.org
[03:08] <zahlerstreik> anyone know some stuff about graphics cards?
[03:08] <sbalneav> digi_: Like, any part with a date of 1969 :)
[03:08] <m1_r0> ok ty
[03:08] <cyberfr0g> hey
[03:08] <zahlerstreik> when i boot, my splash screen is garbled and i can't get fglrx to work
[03:09] <digi_> sbalneav: huh diddnt even notice that
[03:09] <zahlerstreik> although xvesa seems to work but it only gives me 800x600 and im on a widescreen noteboox :/
[03:09] <digi_> sbalneav: those drives got picked up that way
[03:09] <sbalneav> digi_: How many disks do you have in this computer of yours?
[03:09] <digi_> sbalneav: they are two external hard drives
[03:09] <Pelo> zahlerstreik, did you edit xorg.conf to add the resolution you wanted ?
[03:10] <GMWeezel> What must I download for MPEG4 AAC audio playback?
[03:10] <digi_> sbalneav: 2 internal, 2 external for hard drives.
[03:10] <eyecue> yay postfix
[03:10] <eyecue> *cries from happy*
[03:10] <zahlerstreik> Pelo: i did dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg with the same options i used on dapper

[03:10] <arpegius> with the server install cd, can i ssh to the machine and run the install remotely?
[03:10] <sbalneav> digi_: hda1 and hdb1 are the internal drives?
[03:11] <digi_> sbalneav: yes
[03:11] <anon2000> i'm installing xubuntu (alternate installer) on a laptop (333mhz, 128mb ram) for about the past hour, and it's been stuck at 85% 'Please wait...' for about 15 minutes now. there is occasionally a bit of hard drive activity but it hasn't budged from 85%. has it frozen or should i leave it awhile longer?
[03:11] <Pelo> zahlerstreik,   then  you do  sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf  and you add the resolutions you want to the list
[03:11] <ant_> !kickstart
[03:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kickstart - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:12] <sbalneav> digi_: So, hda1 is showing up.  Hda2 is your root, so it looks like hda1 is an ntfs volume.  You're dual boot then?
[03:12] <digi_> sbalneav: yes
[03:12] <zahlerstreik> Pelo: in using dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg i selected resolutions that i want. these were then automatically written to my xorg conf
[03:13] <zahlerstreik> and i can see them
[03:13] <zahlerstreik> but only when i boot in recovery mode
[03:13] <sbalneav> digi_: then it's working like it's supposed to.  It's showing you all the partitions with information on them.
[03:13] <zahlerstreik> when i use xvesa it displays on my output not my laptop LCD
[03:13] <Pelo> zahlerstreik,   maybe you don'T have the right refresh rate for your screen or something

[03:14] <ubotu> CrAsH_0vEr: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[03:14] <crdlb> digi_, executable
[03:14] <sbalneav> digi_: an executable file.
[03:14] <CrAsH_0vEr> thnks :)
[03:14] <aeroplane> is there anyone here who would be willing to help me with some issues I am having understanding how to use the make command?
[03:14] <deezy> basically I've got two cards I've been playing around with trying to install Ubuntu + beryl. I had installed my ATI all in wonder x800xt then installed Ubuntu successfully. After some reading, I decided it was best to use my nvidia card to get beryl to play nice with Ubuntu. Turns out I can't see a damn thing with my nvidia GF4 5600FX card, once I'm booted into the desktop. I hear the startup sound but then my screen displays horrible, It a
[03:14] <Pelo> zahlerstreik,  you should have copied over your xorg.conf file from dapper
[03:14] <CrAsH_0vEr> you're so polite
[03:14] <bruenig> aeroplane, ask your question
[03:14] <Pelo> deezy,  we only help with specific problems
[03:15] <deezy> i've got a specific prob
[03:15] <deezy> i need guidance
[03:15] <zahlerstreik> Pelo: tried that already. maybe fglrx has problems with x64?
[03:15] <bruenig> !justask | deezy
[03:15] <ubotu> deezy: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:15] <zahlerstreik> before i was 32 bit
[03:15] <Pelo> deezy,  sorry,  forget my last line,  I was responding to your first one
[03:15] <phasegen> I have a specific problem
[03:15] <digi_> sbalneav: sdc1 in /medai shows up green
[03:15] <aeroplane> When I use the make command to compile source packages, I consistently get this error. make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
[03:15] <aeroplane> what do i do to avoid this?
[03:15] <eyecue> run the make commands in the proper directory
[03:15] <eyecue> :] 
[03:16] <deezy> My question is:  Why does my nvidia card give me terrible display when I boot to the ubuntu cd no matter what mode
[03:16] <bruenig> aeroplane, yeah are you cd'ed into the right directory
[03:16] <Pelo> zahlerstreik,  that is a possiblility,  check to forum to see if anyone had the same issue , they might have found a solution
[03:16] <sbalneav> digi_: that;'s because it's mode 777
[03:16] <eyecue> if youre extracting a tarball, it usually creates a subdirectory, cd into it first
[03:16] <eyecue> then run your make stuff
[03:16] <digi_> sbalneav: everything is working but sdc1 is not a drive
[03:16] <aeroplane> I have done that
[03:16] <castoff> aeroplane: did you run ./configure 1st?
[03:16] <eyecue> is there a file called Makefile in the dir youre running it in ?
[03:16] <zach635> hey guys, flash for amd64. what's the deal?
[03:16] <phasegen> Why does ubuntu change my the system time, in my bios, when it adjusts my clock?  And How do I stop it?
[03:16] <aeroplane> yes and yes
[03:16] <ardchoille> aeroplane: Some sources require that you run ./configure first
[03:16] <bruenig> zach635, doesn't exist
[03:16] <bruenig> !chroot |
[03:16] <ubotu> : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot use this to build 32 bit environments on a 64 bit box
[03:16] <digi_> sbalneav: in the media folder there is a folder called sdc1 which is a link to hda2
[03:16] <aeroplane> and i have cded into the directory first.
[03:16] <bruenig> aeroplane, link to the package
[03:17] <zahlerstreik> anyone know how to fix x700 driver problems for x64?
[03:17] <digi_> sbalneav: im trying to figure out why its there
[03:17] <Pelo> phasegen,  check in the forum for that
[03:17] <sbalneav> digi_: do this:
[03:17] <deezy> That was my question, can I get some advice ?
[03:17] <aeroplane> bruenig: i have tried three of four since i installed, and i get the same error.
[03:17] <sbalneav> digi_: dmesg | grep sdc
[03:17] <bruenig> deezy, ask a specific question
[03:17] <sbalneav> digi_: paste the output to the pastebin.
[03:17] <deezy> lol I dont know how to lay it out any simplier
[03:17] <ardchoille> aeroplane: DO the sources include a README or INSTALL file?
[03:17] <jexdawg> WHY DOES MY PRINTER DECIDE TO RANDOMLY STOP WORKING WHEN MY ENGLISH PAPER IS DUE
[03:17] <aeroplane> yes.
[03:18] <Pelo> bruenig,  read up a bit , he did
[03:18] <ardchoille> aeroplane: And have you read them?
[03:18] <aeroplane> i have followed their directions.
[03:18] <oscartheduck> Stupid question: how do I register my nickname at freenode so I can join channels that require registration?
[03:18] <bruenig> !caps | jexdawg probably because you yell so much
[03:18] <ardchoille> aeroplane: So you don't need to run ./configure first?
[03:18] <ubotu> jexdawg probably because you yell so much: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[03:18] <sbalneav> jexdawg: from the command line: lpstat -t   Paste the results to the pastebin.
[03:18] <Vorian> !nvidia > deezy
[03:18] <bruenig> aeroplane, so no link to the package then
[03:18] <aeroplane> i think i have done everything correctly. I have run ./configure on each package that told me to.
[03:19] <ardchoille> aeroplane: You got a link to that package?
[03:19] <gubluntu> does anyone know of a way to tell exim that mail sent to a particular address should autmatically be blacklisted?
[03:19] <aeroplane> yah, one second to grab it .

[03:19] <digi_> sbalneav: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11125/
[03:19] <deezy> Specific Question = I'm seeing a video driver error from what I can tell...how can I resolve this and install Ubuntu so I can install the right driver
[03:19] <aeroplane> that is the most recent package i tried.
[03:19] <bruenig> aeroplane, you can get that from a third party repository
[03:20] <Chetwin> How do I test my hard drive to see if it's gone bad???
[03:20] <bruenig> aeroplane, and are you sure that ./configure worked because it may run through and tell you that you don't have the proper dependencies
[03:20] <gubluntu> deezy: FALSE
[03:20] <deezy> ?
[03:20] <Pelo> aeroplane,  when you do an ./configure on a package you want to install ,  you get a list of missing dependencies as they are checked,   install each dependency you don't have as you go , use synaptic to do that ,  then do ./configure again to find the next dependency you don't have ,  you it goes through with no errors, you are ready to make and then make install
[03:20] <oscartheduck> Much easier to install from a repo, aeroplane.
[03:20] <sbalneav> digi_: So, some kind of usb disk is the sdc
[03:20] <gubluntu> deezy: that was an incorrect statement
[03:20] <deezy> I'm confused man
[03:20] <deezy> ...
[03:20] <gubluntu> deezy: what kind of error
[03:21] <aeroplane> oh, i have not checked if it asked for mroe dependencies, i will try that, thanks
[03:21] <andy_> Hi, can anyone help me with networkmanager? when I try to connect to my WPA network, It brings up a box to type in my WPA password, but after I type in my password, the connect button is disabled. Does anyone know a quick fix?
[03:21] <sbalneav> digi_: if you right click on it, can you see the "eject" or "unmount" option?
[03:21] <jexdawg> !pastebin
[03:21] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[03:21] <bruenig> aeroplane, good start, sudo apt-get build-dep gaim
[03:21] <Pelo> later folks
[03:21] <gubluntu> deezy: what is corrently installed, if not ubuntu
[03:21] <deezy> My screen is terrible looking, i'm talking like white/black/green motion lines and bars
[03:21] <aeroplane> bruenig: i will try that for this one, thanks.
[03:21] <gubluntu> s/corrently/currently
[03:21] <deezy> I'm just trying to boot the cd to install Ubuntu
[03:21] <ardchoille> aeroplane: Basically, the ./configure creates a make file and if you get even one error during ./configure, you won't get a make file.
[03:21] <deezy> I've tried the safe video mode, and still get the same thing
[03:21] <gubluntu> deezy: does this not occur when you boot to a different OS?
[03:22] <deezy> nope it dosen't
[03:22] <shark-1> does anyone know where i can find pictures of some awsome looking linux desktops
[03:22] <gubluntu> what OS does it not occur with?
[03:22] <aeroplane> thanks for help everyone.
[03:22] <deezy> i'm on xp pro
[03:22] <bruenig> shark-1, awesome meaning...
[03:22] <Vorian> shark-1, gnomelook.org
[03:22] <shark-1> like really really kool
[03:22] <ant_> fluxbox.org
[03:22] <gubluntu> have you checked if the video card is supported?
[03:22] <deezy> lol you do see i'm trying to fix this
[03:22] <aeroplane> I am very new, incase it was not obvious, and I have been pulling my hair out about it, thanks.
[03:22] <ant_> freshmeat.org
[03:22] <deezy> yep
[03:22] <ardchoille> shark-1: There is a "desktop" category on the ubuntu forums
[03:22] <deezy> and it is
[03:22] <digi_> sbalneav: what window?
[03:22] <deezy> I believe it's a driver issue
[03:23] <deezy> some special driver thats not on the live cd
[03:23] <deezy> theres my issue
[03:23] <bruenig> !alternate | deezy
[03:23] <ubotu> deezy: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.
[03:23] <nkayhan> shark-1 : I wasn't aware that images were platform specific
[03:23] <kamera> where can i find ddcprobe? which package?
[03:23] <nick_> my "parted" command is not working any ideas on how to fix
[03:23] <gubluntu> deezy: the lazy approach i think would be to disconnect the card and install with the onboard driver
[03:23] <deezy> I have the alternate cd and have already installed it
[03:23] <zach635> here's another question, can i use wine to run itunes on this with complete ipod support and everything?
[03:23] <sbalneav> digi_: When you right click on the sdc1 in your media folder, in nautilus, can you select "eject" from the context menu?
[03:23] <gubluntu> then install the card
[03:23] <bruenig> !ati | deezy
[03:23] <ubotu> deezy: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:23] <Invisible_Slack> I was looking to install Ubuntu and noticed during the GUI Installer that you can only work with 1 hard drive while installing.  How would I go about installing it using LVM to span across 2 hard drives?
[03:23] <zach635> or can i even use the osx version?
[03:23] <jexdawg> sbalneav: pastebin of my printer (no errors or anything... it will sometimes print test pages) http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11127/

[03:24] <digi_> sbalneav: no there is no eject
[03:24] <deezy> so once I install with an onboard vid card, then I use the binary driver how to page right?
[03:24] <sbalneav> digi_: Hmm, wierd.
[03:24] <deezy> to install the right driver for nvidia?
[03:24] <gubluntu> deezy: yes, but if you have ubuntu installed, you just need to install the driver
[03:24] <sbalneav> jexdawg: try the command "lprm 95"
[03:24] <oscartheduck> INvisible, the simplest way may be to install to one hard drive, then set up mount points using gparted for the rest of the drive. Though I *thought* there was an option to use gparted in the install.
[03:24] <gubluntu> ubotu tell deezy about nvidia
[03:24] <digi_> sbalneav: when I click computer it doesnt show up
[03:25] <nick_> help me repair my parted command plz
[03:25] <jexdawg> sbalneav: Job #95 is already cancelled - can't cancel.
[03:25] <andy_> Hi, can anyone help me with networkmanager? when I try to connect to my WPA network, It brings up a box to type in my WPA password, but after I type in my password, the connect button is disabled. Does anyone know a quick fix?
[03:25] <Invisible_Slack> bruenig, Wow that was absolutely USELESS about LVM that is for after the fact installs not during the install
[03:26] <gubluntu> Invisible_Slack: dont be obnoxious or no one will help you

[03:26] <spider> :/
[03:26] <bruenig> tis how I roll
[03:26] <blackelf> damn, why is kernel so badly written about sharing resources?
[03:27] <Invisible_Slack> oscartheduck, Do you happen to know what point in the install I could possibly use gpart because when it comes to the Hard Drive Selection it only gives you the ability to select one 1 hard drive
[03:27] <corevette> VirtualBox vs. VMWare...which one is better?
[03:27] <bruenig> !best
[03:27] <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.
[03:27] <zahlerstreik>  BLASt it all!  im installinx x86 dapper. :P
[03:27] <digi_> sbalneav: ls in /media shows sdc1 in blue with a green background
[03:27] <gubluntu> Invisible_Slack: what are you trying to accomplish?
[03:27] <jexdawg> sbalneav - it detects my printer and it will even print test pages (sporadically). it just won't print what i want it to. i believe its out to get me.
[03:27] <Invisible_Slack> gubluntu, I have 2x 200 gigs on PATA and during the install I would like to setup a LVM where it makes it one big 400 gigs drive for Linux
[03:28] <deezy> OK thanks guys! i'll give it a shot
[03:28] <sbalneav> digi_: I'm not talking from an ls.  I'm talking from using the nautilus graphical file browser
[03:28] <gubluntu> Invisible_Slack: and it only recognizes one?
[03:28] <sbalneav> jexdawg: ok, lets do this
[03:28] <sbalneav> jexdawg: sudo invoke-rc.d cupsys stop
[03:28] <Invisible_Slack> gubluntu, It see's both drives but it only allows you to "Select" one to partition and setup once you pick that drive it will only work with that drive throughout the whole setup process
[03:28] <digi_> sbalneav: I know, I just wasnt surte if that last bit was of any importance
[03:29] <gubluntu> Invisible_Slack: you are using the live cd?
[03:29] <Invisible_Slack> gubluntu, No
[03:29] <gubluntu> Invisible_Slack: what are u using?
[03:29] <Invisible_Slack> gubluntu, Ubuntu Server 6.10
[03:29] <sbalneav> digi_: the system's detected SOMEHING on sdc.  Maybe take a look with lsusb, to see what the usb bus thinks you've got connected.
[03:29] <sbalneav> jexdawg: Done that yet?
[03:30] <zach635> how can i get more workspaces in beryl
[03:30] <gubluntu> Invisible_Slack: ah... okay... so i would suggest doing a minimal install, and then reforming lvm with gparted
[03:30] <jexdawg> sbalneav, yes: * Stopping Common Unix Printing System: cupsd                                   [ ok ] 
[03:30] <sbalneav> jexdawg: OK, lets do this
[03:30] <gubluntu> Invisible_Slack: or download a copy of damn small linux or some othe minimal live cd and partition the drive to your taste prior to ubuntu install
[03:31] <sbalneav> jexdawg: sudo -i
[03:31] <Invisible_Slack> gubluntu, also tried with 6.06 Server Install CD and the normal ubuntu install CD's but all of them will only work with 1 CD at a time.  If you like its on another PC I can pop it in the CD rom and go through the install and give you specific
[03:31] <sbalneav> should get a root shell.
[03:31] <jexdawg> sbalneav, done
[03:31] <sbalneav> jexdawg: Type very slowly and carefuly from here on out :)
[03:31] <sbalneav> jexdawg: cd /var/spool/cups
[03:32] <jexdawg> dued i allwys typs caerfuly
[03:32] <gubluntu> Invisible_Slack: i would just partition prior to the install using a utility on a live disc... not using the partition tools activated during an install
[03:32] <sbalneav> lol
[03:32] <jexdawg> alright, done again
[03:32] <sbalneav> jexdawg: What's in that dir?  ls -a
[03:32] <gubluntu> Invisible_Slack: wish i could offer more help but i gotta run
[03:32] <gubluntu> Invisible_Slack:  goodluck

[03:32] <Mirth> Couple of questions...
[03:33] <sbalneav> ok
[03:33] <Mirth> When I start up Ubuntu, I have to put in my Network Password each time for my Wireless Network
[03:33] <sbalneav> jexdawg: rm c0* d0*
[03:33] <sbalneav> looks like some dead cruft in there
[03:33] <Mirth> Is there a way to just automatically keep it, like Windows does?
[03:33] <jexdawg> i did that... nothing happened
[03:34] <sbalneav> jexdawg: do the ls again
[03:34] <phasegen> Pelo: Nothing in the wiki to answer it.
[03:34] <sbalneav> now there should just be the tmp
[03:34] <Jav1> testing
[03:34] <adam_> Hey Gang. If a network device doesn't come up on boot, how (in ubuntu) does one go about starting/configuring it?
[03:34] <slavik> what's a good GUI to gdb?
[03:34] <jexdawg> .  ..  tmp
[03:34] <jexdawg> is what shows up
[03:34] <sbalneav> perfect
[03:35] <FurthuR> what would i do to start my wireless card manager (Rutilt 0.13) to start at boot (it needs root)
[03:35] <sbalneav> invoke-rc.d cupsys start
[03:35] <jexdawg> if you say so
[03:35] <fabiano> how can i upgrade my ubuntu?
[03:35] <Mirth> Anyone?
[03:35] <FurthuR> i though of putting in a script in rc.5 but no luck
[03:35] <jexdawg> * Starting Common Unix Printing System: cupsd
[03:35] <Jav1> fabiano, sudo dist-upgrade
[03:35] <FurthuR> or rc.local
[03:35] <bruenig> FurthuR, you can call it from /etc/rc.local
[03:35] <sbalneav> jexdawg: then lets do the lpstat -t.  There shouldn't be any print jobs any more.
[03:36] <fabiano> just
[03:36] <fabiano> just
[03:36] <Jav1> fabiano, put only this on the term
[03:36] <jexdawg> it says scheduler is running and no system default destination, then the device path, and that i've been accepting requests since mon 19 march. printer is idle.
[03:36] <Jav1> and be happy ^^
[03:36] <jexdawg> should i try to print?
[03:37] <fabiano> but nothing is happinig
[03:37] <sbalneav> jexdawg: ok, power cycle your printer to get it into a known good state, then try printing.
[03:37] <nick_> how do you make items from menu run as root
[03:38] <jexdawg> power cycle it? is that linux-speak for "turn it on"?
[03:38] <Jav1> if nothing happen with the term, the reason is that your dist is up to date :)
[03:38] <sbalneav> jexdawg: heh, yeah, turn it off, then turn it back on. :)
[03:38] <jexdawg> ah - brilliant, ok
[03:38] <jexdawg> haha
[03:38] <Jav1> what's your linux version fabiano?
[03:38] <adam_>  If a network device doesn't come up on boot, how (in ubuntu) does one go about starting/configuring it?
[03:39] <fabiano> my ubuntu is 5.10
[03:39] <sbalneav> adam_: System -> Administration -> Network
[03:39] <FurthuR> aille
[03:39] <Jav1> hmmm greate, just a sec okay?
[03:39] <jexdawg> sbalneav. valiant effort. unfortunately, we failed.
[03:39] <lisapc> when I run chkrootkit, it says: eth0: PACKET SNIFFER(/sbin/dhclient3[4254] ).  What can I do?
[03:40] <adam_> sbalneav, oops. my bad. Kubuntu (/me ducks)
[03:40] <Mirth> !synaptics
[03:40] <ubotu> For a comprehensive Synaptics Touchpad guide, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad
[03:40] <sbalneav> jexdawg: OK, don't give up yet.  It's a usb printer, yes? Try unplugging it, and plugging it into a different usb port.  Maybe the port you're on has gone duffy.
[03:40] <jexdawg> ok. one second.
[03:41] <sbalneav> adam_: Got me, I don't use the other, heathen desktop :)
[03:41] <sbalneav> joke, joke
[03:41] <adam_> sbalneav, :-)
[03:41] <Mirth> !Wine
[03:41] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[03:41] <adam_> sbalneav, so, there isn't a curses/ncurses interface to utilize?
[03:42] <sbalneav> adam_: Sure, vi.  Check out /etc/network/interfaces.
[03:42] <jexdawg> sbalneav. no go. i switched my mouse and printer and my mouse still works, so it isn't the usb port. and i tried printing again... nothing.
[03:42] <kieran> i need help!! my wireless card is recognized in the device manager screen but that is it, i can't connect it, i can't do anything
[03:42] <adam_> sbalneav, I helping a bud. He's got a Marvel (unknown) interface in this box. But it isn't werkn under sky2 or the others (as  best as I can determine).
[03:42] <fabiano> where are you
[03:43] <Jav1> fabiano, this is the guide: http://easylinux.info/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy#How_to_upgrade_from_Hoary_Hedgehog_-.3E_Breezy_Badger_-.3E_Dapper_Drake
[03:43] <digitize> i'm having wireless issues as well.  using ndisgtk + ndiswrapper, i'm able to select the .inf file for my wireless adapter, but the hardware is no detected, not even after reboot.  using a linksys wusb11v4
[03:43] <fabiano> e ai fernando
[03:43] <sbalneav> jexdawg: hmmm.  Any other port on this printer besides usb?  What you got in /dev/usb/lp0?
[03:43] <fernando> fabiano: hey
[03:43] <lisapc> when I run chkrootkit, it says: eth0: PACKET SNIFFER(/sbin/dhclient3[4254] ).  What can I do?
[03:44] <Mirth> Anyone have Wine 0.9.33?
[03:44] <fabiano> como fao pra tc com voce aki?
[03:44] <adam_> sbalneav, well, interfaces is correct. it's got to be a module issue. Maybe we'll just leave this 3c905 in here too. can't hurt much.
[03:44] <ardchoille> lisapc: I get that after a fresh install before connecting the internet cable, I think it's normal.
[03:44] <fabiano> ou melhor selecionar teu nick
[03:44] <digi_> sbalneav: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11128/
[03:44] <Jav1> Mirth, deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt edgy main
[03:44] <orehon> I have one hp dv 2120us (Laptop). I am using ubuntu 7.04. Kernel: 2.6.20-12-generic. When i plug in my headphones, my speaker keep working! I dont know how to fix it! Who can help me?
[03:44] <lisapc> ardchoille, you get that too?  can I safely ignore it?
[03:44] <digi_> sbalneav: isnt that saying that the something it detected is hda2?
[03:45] <jexdawg> ummm... maybe i'm blind, but i don't have a usb folder in /dev :-/
[03:45] <ardchoille> lisapc: Well, if I got a root kit, it was given to me by the Ubuntu install cd ;)
[03:45] <ardchoille> lisapc: I ignore it, yeah.
[03:45] <lisapc> ardchoille,  LOL
[03:45] <sbalneav> digi_: heh, got a symlink in /dev/ from sdc to hda2?
[03:45] <Jaxxor> hello everyone
[03:45] <kieran> is anyone able to help me with my wireless card problem?
[03:45] <lisapc> ardchoille, what if we have a packet sniffer?
[03:45] <sbalneav> jexdawg: hmm, umm, maybe I'm calling it the wrong thing, let me check....
[03:45] <adam_> sbalneav, Thank You for the responces and ideas! Have a Perfect Week! I'm gonzo...
[03:45] <digi_> sbalneav: oh ok
[03:46] <digi_> sbalneav: how do i unsymlink?
[03:46] <Jaxxor> If anyone would be so kind, I need a small question answered.
[03:46] <mattyv> orehon: try asking in #ubuntu+1 It's for 7.04
[03:46] <jexdawg> sbalneav - this is highly irrelevant (i assume), but i installed fglrx drivers today. do you think that has anything to do with it?
[03:46] <Jordan_U> kieran, What card do you have?
[03:46] <Jaxxor> I'm rather new to Ubuntu. I'm just curious if my wireless network card will be supported by Ubuntu so that I can connect to my router for internet access.
[03:47] <kieran> thanks... i have a BCM4306 comaptible card
[03:47] <sbalneav> jexdawg: I doubt it, but whenever you install something new, you have to wonder :)  got a /dev/usblp0?
[03:47] <Vorian> Jaxxor, what card?
[03:47] <fabiano> how I upgrade my 5.10?
[03:47] <Jaxxor> Dynex Wireless G
[03:47] <digi_> sbalneav: sorry for the hassle and thanks for the help
[03:47] <Jordan_U> kieran, Have you tried fwcutter?
[03:47] <sbalneav> digi_: No problem, sorry I couldn't narrow it down more.
[03:47] <kieran> no im not fimiliar with that
[03:47] <jexdawg> i do sbalneav. what is it? more importantly, what should i do with it?
[03:48] <ardchoille> lisapc: I just ran chkrootkit on a box that's never been connected and I got: eth0: PACKET SNIFFER(/sbin/dhclient3[4108] )  This box has never had anything but the install cd.
[03:48] <orehon> mattyv: thanks
[03:48] <Jaxxor> Vorian: Dynex (brand) Wireless G card
[03:48] <houmala> what is the trick to getting thunderbird to work with yahoo mail?
[03:48] <Jordan_U> kieran, Basically, there are drivers for bcm43xx cards but you need to get the firmware
[03:48] <Vorian> Jaxxor, have you tried the livdCD?
[03:48] <sbalneav> jexdawg: well, that's the USB printer, so it's being detected.  Any messages in dmesg?  dmesg | grep usb | grep lp
[03:49] <Mirth> Is there a keyboard shortcut to open the Terminal?
[03:49] <kieran> i have the drivers and i have also tried installing them with nisdwrapper GUI but to no avail
[03:49] <sbalneav> I'm thinking it's some kind of connection problem.
[03:49] <fabiano> how can i upgrade my 5.10?
[03:49] <ardchoille> !upgrade
[03:49] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[03:49] <digi_> sbalneav: how can you tell its a symlink?
[03:49] <Jaxxor> actually Vorian, I haven't I'm a "switcher". I just gave up on Windows and am trying out Ubuntu for the first time. I hear so many great things about Linux.
[03:49] <sbalneav> jexdawg: got another box you can test the printer on?
[03:49] <Jordan_U> kieran, try unzipping this to /lib/firmware http://trogdoor.googlepages.com/firmware.zip
[03:49] <Mirth> Anyone?
[03:50] <sbalneav> digi_: ls -al /dev/sdc1 if it says something like sdc1 -> hda2, it's a siymlink
[03:50] <kieran> jordan_u just hold on i will try that
[03:50] <Vorian> Jaxxor, check the pm from ubotu
[03:50] <jexdawg> sbalneav, i don't. i have a light windows install that i guess i'll boot into later, but i'm about to pass out. i really truly appreciate all the help you gave me. but right now i need sleep. i'll test and fiddle and prod tomorrow. thanks a lot man.
[03:50] <ardchoille> Mirth: system -> preferences -> keyboard shortcuts  there's a place to add a kb shortcut for the terminal
[03:50] <shindig__> anyone know of anything in linux that can play and list shoutcast video streams?
[03:50] <sbalneav> Sorry I couldn't solve it for you.
[03:50] <Jordan_U> kieran, When that is done try: sudo modprobe bcm43xx
[03:50] <Mirth> Thanks ardchoille
[03:51] <ardchoille> Mirth: You're welcome :)
[03:51] <kieran> in the terminal
[03:51] <kieran> ?
[03:51] <Jordan_U> kieran, Yes
[03:51] <iAmTheDave> using lspci, my laptop can see my Atheros Netgear WG511T wireless card, but iwconfig says no wireless extensions are loaded.  forums say something about restricted modules for the kernel - can anyone explain to me what that is?
[03:52] <iAmTheDave> or those are
[03:52] <kieran> Jordan_U, would you mind if we start a private session, i find it hard to do things as well as chat
[03:52] <digitize> i'm having wireless issues as well.  using ndisgtk + ndiswrapper, i'm able to select the .inf file for my wireless adapter, but the hardware is no detected, not even after reboot.  using a linksys wusb11v4
[03:52] <mattyv> ardchoille: Have you tried running rkhunter as well? Might be an idea, although it seems like a false pos. from what you describe
[03:52] <Jordan_U> kieran, No problem
[03:52] <ardchoille> mattyv: I run chkrootkit, rkhunter, tripwire and snort on a daily basis.
[03:52] <Vorian> see pm from ubotu iAmTheDave
[03:52] <Jaxxor> Vorian: thanks for the PM, but unfortunately, Ubuntu doesn't support Dynex brand wireless cards. I thank you for your help. I'll just have to go out and buy another that's supported by Ubuntu.
[03:53] <Vorian> Jaxxor, sorry mate :/
[03:53] <iAmTheDave> thanks vorian
[03:53] <StSteven> Alrighty then...I have what I think is a simple question...how do I restart x-serve without rebooting the machine?
[03:53] <Vorian> yw iAmTheDave
[03:53] <ardchoille> kieran: Jordan_U is identified to nickserv, you are not, your pm's to him/her may not go thru
[03:53] <ripper> StSteven ctrl + alt + bckspace
[03:53] <macd> StSteven, crtl + shift + backspace will restart
[03:54] <Mirth> When I start up Ubuntu, it asks for my WPA password.  Is there a way to save it in there?
[03:54] <ripper> macd its ctrl alt
[03:54] <Mirth> So I dont have to enter it everytime
[03:54] <macd> !wpa > Mirth
[03:54] <Jordan_U> ardchoille, I set unfilterd on, so it's OK
[03:54] <ardchoille> Jordan_U: Ah, ok

[03:56] <lisapc> ardchoille, really?  so it seems that eth0: PACKET SNIFFER(/sbin/dhclient3[4108] ) is a false alarm then
[03:56] <ardchoille> lisapc: I would say that is true, yes.
[03:57] <digitize> i'm having wireless issues as well.  using ndisgtk + ndiswrapper, i'm able to select the .inf file for my wireless adapter, but the hardware is no detected, not even after reboot.  using a linksys wusb11v4 - anyone have experience with this or a good place too look?

[03:58] <lauren_> I just compiled kernel 2.6.20-3 so I could have broadcom (4306) support for wireless.. not sure what to do next- anyone help?
[03:58] <dk_ii> how do I make it so when a window is dragged it does not show the contents of the window and shows only the frame?
[04:00] <lauren_> ubotu, the device does not show up in my networking control panel
[04:00] <madman91> HELLO all .. is there a way to log CDparanoia during its rip job?
[04:00] <ubotu> the: Full-screen character mode text editor. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.1-4 (edgy), package size 277 kB, installed size 796 kB
[04:00] <macd> lauren_, you didnt actualy have to compile the kernel
[04:00] <ardchoille> dk_ii: open gconf-editor and have a look at the description of /apps/metacity/general/reduced_resources  it seems what you want is bundled with other items.
[04:00] <dk_ii> thanks ardchoille!
[04:00] <Mirth> dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege
[04:00] <ardchoille> dk_ii: You're welcome :)
[04:00] <Mirth> What's that mean?
[04:01] <ardchoille> MEans you need to use sudo
[04:01] <lauren_> ndiswrapper wasn't working out to well either.. someone had said that its built into the kernel as of 2.6.19.x
[04:01] <sbalneav> Night all
[04:01] <Mirth> Oh...
[04:01] <macd> lauren_, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx is your answer.
[04:01] <macd> lauren_, its been in the kernel for alot longer than that
[04:01] <macd> lauren_, what release are you on?
[04:01] <Mirth> I use sudo before dpkg?
[04:01] <Mirth> or in place of it?
[04:01] <lauren_> 6.06
[04:02] <lauren_> macd, 6.06
[04:02] <macd> lauren_, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Dapper  Section1.3
[04:03] <ardchoille> Mirth: sudo dpkg blah
[04:04] <ardchoille> !sudo | Mirth you should learn what sudo is used for
[04:04] <ubotu> Mirth you should learn what sudo is used for: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[04:04] <Mirth> Ah....
[04:04] <Mirth> I shall read that. :)
[04:04] <eva> hello room, dos anyone know a program to open .pub files.  If not, is scribus a good publisher tool? Or is there a better one out there?
[04:04] <tidrion> HELP!
[04:04] <tidrion> :-)
[04:04] <detectiveinspekt> How big is the download for 6.10 CD?
[04:05] <macd> !justask | tidrion
[04:05] <ubotu> tidrion: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:05] <detectiveinspekt> I downloaded it but not sure its its the alternate or normal ISO.
[04:05] <macd> detectiveinspekt, the filename says alernate
[04:05] <ardchoille> detectiveinspekt: It should have the word "alternate" in the filename
[04:06] <detectiveinspekt> ok thanks
[04:06] <lauren_> macd, this looks like its for a broadcom 4318, i have a 4306- will this process still work?
[04:06] <StSteven> Well I reset my x-serve and it crashed.  Fortunately I knew how to recover.  My real problem is that my resolution on my programs is displaying everything to big.  I set my resolution to 1028x768, but it isn't.
[04:06] <macd> lauren_, it covers broadcom43xx
[04:07] <tidrion> every time I run synaptic to install a package it tries to install sun-java-doc
[04:07] <tidrion> which it can't it fails
[04:07] <tidrion> but it freaks out synaptic
[04:08] <tidrion> is there a way to clear packages to be installed?
[04:08] <eva> test
[04:09] <coffeegrindah> is there any way to use syslinux to password grub on a usbstick?
[04:10] <BehindYou> does linux-swap have to be a primary partition?
[04:10] <LadyNikon> I would do it
[04:10] <ardchoille> coffeegrindah: You want grub to not load at all unless the usb stick is plugged it?
[04:10] <LadyNikon> BehindYou: usually  boot/root/swap/ whatever else
[04:11] <eva> b bvfvbb
[04:11] <coffeegrindah> ardchoille: no I'm running Live and wouldn't mind a little mediocre security
[04:11] <macd> BehindYou, its a real good idea.
[04:11] <ardchoille> coffeegrindah: Ah, ok
[04:11] <macd> tidrion, are you familiar with the console?
[04:11] <tidrion> yep
[04:11] <frenzy> some one please help i keep getting this error mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdb1,
[04:11] <frenzy>        missing codepage or other error
[04:11] <BehindYou> so it can't be a logical partition without some complications?
[04:12] <ant_> BehindYou : yes it can be.
[04:12] <macd> then navigate to: /var/cache/apt/archives/partial  and delete the sun-java-doc package
[04:12] <macd> frenzy, what are you trying to mount and what is its filesystem?
[04:12] <StSteven> Does anyone know why my screen resolution settings would not work?
[04:13] <LadyNikon> StSteven: setup incorrect?
[04:13] <cyros> how can i make a graphical grub menu? any links?
[04:13] <ardchoille> StSteven: Did you restart X ?
[04:13] <frenzy> its a second hd .. and its NFS... i had it mounted before but then i tried installing ntfs-3g and now it wont work
[04:13] <LadyNikon> cyros: you mean having a background and everything?
[04:13] <LadyNikon> fbsupport?
[04:13] <frenzy> macd: its a second hd .. and its NFS... i had it mounted before but then i tried installing ntfs-3g and now it wont work
[04:13] <ant_> i seen a grub background on gnome-look.org
[04:13] <ant_> i think
[04:13] <StSteven> It was just installed (the os)and it went in right.  I restarted x-serve and it crashed so what I did didn't work
[04:14] <titun> anyone used gmobilemedia ??
[04:14] <macd> frenzy, what do you mean you tried to install ntfs-3g ?
[04:14] <tidrion> maccd it isn't there
[04:14] <StSteven> I looked in the xorg.conf and it looks right, but I don't really know
[04:14] <macd> tidrion, is it in the directory above partial?
[04:14] <ardchoille> StSteven: Sounds like incorrect settings. Pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:14] <ardchoille> !paste
[04:14] <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)
[04:14] <tidrion> yes
[04:14] <tidrion> was just about to say that
[04:14] <tidrion> delete?
[04:14] <macd> yessir
[04:15] <pisedoffcracker1> can anyone tell me the best versian of ubuntu to use
[04:15] <macd> tidrion, then 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade'
[04:15] <titun> anyone used gmobilemedia ??
[04:15] <frenzy> macd: i followed the instructions on the ubuntu forum and it didnt work so now i uninsulated it and edited the fstab but it still wont mount
[04:15] <macd> pisedoffcracker1, if you want stable go with dapper, if your looking for something more cutting edge, try edgy.
[04:15] <ant_> use apt-get dist updgrade
[04:15] <cyros> LadyNikon: yea something nice when choosing the OS to boot pictures maybe
[04:15] <ant_> its smarter
[04:16] <macd> depends on who you ask ;)
[04:16] <pisedoffcracker1> macd is there a versian with automatix or nvidia drivers preinstalled?
[04:16] <macd> pisedoffcracker1, no.
[04:16] <digi_> does sudo have a log?
[04:16] <macd> digi_, /var/log/auth.log has sudo in it
[04:16] <LadyNikon> cyros: im old.. been using that format forever heh
[04:16] <ardchoille> !automatix | pisedoffcracker1
[04:16] <ubotu> pisedoffcracker1: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[04:16] <digi_> macd: ty
[04:16] <StSteven> Ok it is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11139/
[04:16] <macd> frenzy, I assume you rebooted?
[04:17] <frenzy> macd: what should i do?
[04:17] <StSteven> My xorg.conf that is
[04:17] <frenzy> just x
[04:17] <frenzy> macd: just x
[04:17] <cyros> i dont mind the grub menu but i was just seeing if i could do something new to spice it up, u know
[04:17] <cyros> i get bored
[04:17] <titun> anyone used gmobilemedia ??
[04:17] <ant_> cyros, gnome-look.org has backgrounds for grub
[04:17] <frenzy> macd: i tried sudo umount /dev/hbd/ and tehn sudo mount -a
[04:17] <macd> frenzy, what do you mean just x? you need to reboot after uninstalling ntfs-3g
[04:18] <macd> frenzy, also comment out the entry in fstab before you do
[04:18] <frenzy> macd: il try that;.; thx
[04:18] <ardchoille> StSteven: Looks to me like you are missing some of the file. What is that first line?
[04:18] <tidrion> macd: thanks, if u ever make it to ks let me know, I'll buy you a bear
[04:18] <macd> woot!, np.
[04:18] <ardchoille> StSteven: The 1st and 2nd line ??
[04:18] <StSteven> # /etc/X11/xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
[04:18] <ant_> we shoot bears where i'm from
[04:18] <cyros> ant_: thanks
[04:18] <ant_> np
[04:18] <ardchoille> StSteven: The 1st and 2nd line in the paste I meant
[04:18] <frenzy> macd: the whole entry ... u mean taking the -3g out of it isnt enough?
[04:19] <StSteven> #
[04:19] <macd> frenzy, what?
[04:19] <StSteven> Oh yeah...I'll fix that
[04:19] <macd> frenzy, I mean uncomment the entire line in fstab
[04:19] <macd> err, comment out.
[04:19] <Mirth> How do I tell if a program I installed correctly
[04:19] <Mirth> installed correctly*?
[04:19] <macd> Mirth, did you get an error while installing it?
[04:19] <Mirth> Im not sure :(
[04:20] <tidrion> omg
[04:20] <tidrion> Setting up sun-java6-doc (6-00-0ubuntu1~dapper1) ...
[04:20] <tidrion> This package is an installer package, it does not actually contain the

[04:20] <tidrion> archives:
[04:20] <StSteven> Sorry
[04:20] <tidrion>     jdk-6-doc.zip jdk-6-doc-ja.zip
[04:20] <frenzy> macd: i didnt commen it all i did was take out the -3g out of the 3rd collum and left only ntfs
[04:20] <tidrion> (choose the non-update version if this is the first installation).
[04:20] <tidrion> Please visit

[04:21] <Mirth> It gave me a few errors, but said it installed or something...
[04:21] <maxslm2003> I cant get my sound to work could someone help me solve this problem
[04:21] <Mirth> I don't know how to really run programs yet, that aren't in "Applications"
[04:21] <cyros> ant_: cant find it on there
[04:22] <ant_> cyros : to the right is a search bar, type grub
[04:22] <ravi_master> Offtopic: guys, where do I put in my nick's password in ChatZilla?
[04:22] <macd> Mirth, you can add programs using the menu editor
[04:22] <Mirth> Is that the Synaptic thing?
[04:22] <ardchoille> StSteven: I don't see anything wrong, but I'm no expert. Hopefully, someone else will see what's wrong.
[04:22] <macd> Mirth, no its in system --> administration --> menu editor
[04:22] <TraceGreen> Hello, I don't have /dev/snd , and also /dev/dsp, /dev/audio, i have loaded my alsa driver. why?
[04:23] <TraceGreen> my kernel is 2.6.20, shall i use devfs or such thins?
[04:23] <StSteven> Yeah...everything works right but that
[04:23] <Mirth> I don't have that macd :(
[04:23] <macd> Mirth, is this dapper?
[04:23] <Mirth> Edgy 6.10

[04:24] <craigbass1976> anyone ever used efax?  I've installed it, but where it's late I don't want to try it out until tomorrow and want to knwo what to expect
[04:25] <macd> Mirth, yeah you can add checks to the boxes to show items that are not in the menu curerntly
[04:25] <ravi_master> craigbass, how extensively are you going to be using it?
[04:26] <Chicory> !ti
[04:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ti - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:26] <Chicory> Huh.
[04:26] <Chicory> Has anyone had success in linking a TI-89 or thereabouts?
[04:26] <slavik> is there a text editor that can laod a 100KB file without fuss?
[04:26] <ravi_master> I have efax but all i do is open efax files I received in my email.
[04:26] <craigbass1976> ravi_master, Me, not much, but I've got an ubuntu box sitting at a customers and I'm hoping to get it set up for her.
[04:26] <slavik> gedit seems to choke on it ...
[04:26] <macd> slavik, I;ve opened 20mb in gedit or pico.
[04:27] <slavik> macd: hmm ...
[04:27] <slavik> 400KB now ...
[04:27] <craigbass1976> ravi_master, she's got a win95 box, only because she likes the fax program she bought for it so many years ago.  If I can replace it with a viable alternative, the 95 box will get the heave ho
[04:27] <Meruru> Hey has anyone had issues with modules.dep missing with the install CDs? namely the amd64 desktop one?
[04:27] <ravi_master> craigbass1976: it works well and has been proven to be very stable for me. I haven't used the modem capability but it should work fine.
[04:28] <craigbass1976> ravi_master, spiffy.
[04:28] <slavik> I wrote a multithreaded program to multiply 2 two 200x200 matrices ... program runs in less than a second ... but gedit chokes on the result :(
[04:28] <macd> slavik, try pico/nano at console
[04:28] <slavik> macd: k ... even less was slow ^^
[04:28] <ravi_master> craigbass: heave ho away, if it's just 95, I'm not sure some of the features in the XP version can be matched by efax-gtk though.
[04:29] <macd> slavik, you could also use txt2pdf and then read it as a pdf
[04:29] <eva> bb
[04:29] <craigbass1976> ravi_master, she doesn't like any of the other fax programs she's tried, and her program won't work on xp.  Actually, she wasn't able to get it working on anything newer than 95.  I have not messed with it though.
[04:29] <frenzy> macd: im still having the same problem....
[04:30] <slavik> macd: I mean it doesn't do me much good, sicne I dunno if it's correct ^^
[04:30] <ravi_master> craigbass1976, if it's just a 95 program, it might work wonders under wine. If not, let her try efax-gtk and see what she thinks of it.
[04:30] <macd> frenzy, goto a console and "sudo apt-get remove ntfs-3g && sudo apt-get autoremove"
[04:30] <ravi_master> I have to go now, bye
[04:30] <ardchoille> frenzy: You on Edgy?
[04:30] <frenzy> yeah
[04:30] <frenzy> ardchoille: yeah
[04:31] <ardchoille> frenzy: ok
[04:31] <BeepAU> i've got a sigmatel 9200 sound card which I can't get to work outside windows. can anyone help me?
[04:31] <matthew_> why does ubuntu-desktop depend on everything?
[04:31] <ravi_master> but I've been extremely pleased by efax-gtk so far.
[04:31] <macd> matthew_, it is the metapackage
[04:31] <ant_> !sound | BeepAU

[04:31] <matthew_> macd:  what does that mean?
[04:31] <frenzy> macd: i had already removed everything
[04:31] <macd> frenzy, we were just making sure
[04:31] <BeepAU> ant_ - you think i haven't looked over that already?
[04:31] <frenzy> macd: ok
[04:31] <ant_> no tellin
[04:32] <macd> matthew_, it means ubuntu-desktop is the package that holds a "list" of all the desktop componets and prereq's
[04:32] <BeepAU> ant_ - i've been trying to get sound working for over a week
[04:32] <someone1> hey, i can't get my wireless card to work, i even tried ndiswrapper, can some1 assist me, i ahve a Dlink DWL-G520 rev. b runnign on Ubuntu 6.1, its not being detected under network manager
[04:32] <matthew_> So.... why does it require that i have totem installed?
[04:32] <maxslm2003> same here sound is not working for me
[04:32] <ardchoille> !metapackage
[04:32] <ubotu> A meta-package is a package that simply depends upon other packages and brings them in. It's not a real package, but a very useful package that can drag in other package versions.
[04:32] <ant_> there has been quite a few people with sound problems lately
[04:32] <macd> matthew_, its part of the metapackage.
[04:32] <arnina> I have debug it,you cann't compile a program with glibc higher,while running it with glibc lower,but I will do oppositely
[04:33] <matthew_> macd:  why?
[04:33] <macd> matthew_, because thats how it works.
[04:33] <matthew_> macd:  that's how what works?  Why am I required to have totem installed?
[04:33] <jb93> whats the best way to manage gpg in ubuntu?
[04:33] <pisedoffcracker1> how hard is it to install nvidia drivers in dapper?
[04:33] <maxslm2003> ant: it is funny i had sound before then i moved my computer and well no sound only other time i had it was one time on the live CD
[04:33] <macd> mattastrophe, because totem is in the metapackage, Im not sure how much clearer I can be
[04:33] <frenzy> macd: so what dhould i do now?
[04:34] <macd> frenzy, did anything happen when you did that?
[04:34] <ardchoille> matthew_: You can uninstall the ubuntu-deaktop meta package without breaking anything.. it's just a meta package.
[04:34] <BeepAU> is there anything like ndiswrapper for sound?
[04:34] <zahlerstreik> i just installed beryl on ubuntu with the install script and when i use the beryl manager and select beryl the screen just flashes and it goes back to metalicity :(
[04:34] <ant_> i have no experience with sound issues as mine has always worked out of the box. ;|
[04:34] <frenzy> macd: sudo apt-get remove ntfs-3g && sudo apt-get autoremove
[04:34] <frenzy> macd: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[04:34] <matthew_> macd:  You've yet to explain why totem is in the meta package.  or why I am required to have it installed.  It's a video player.  I should be able to uninstall it.
[04:34] <frenzy> macd: for everything
[04:35] <macd> frenzy, ok great, so go uncomment that line from fstab, then 'sudo mount -o'
[04:35] <matthew_> ardchoille:  I don't want to uninstall ubuntu-desktop.  I want to uninstall totem (and compiz).
[04:35] <someone1> Ubuntu 6.1 won't detect my wireless card, are there any steps i can try to fix this?
[04:35] <macd> matthew_, I didnt make the metapackage
[04:35] <macd> matthew_, and it was just explained you can uninstall the metapackage (ubuntu-desktop) and then uninstall totem,/etc/etc
[04:35] <ardchoille> matthew_: so uninstall them, I did.
[04:36] <andre_pl_> how do I install ttf fonts that I've downloaded? i dont really need to restart X do I? I've copied them to ;/usr/share/fonts but that didn't do it

[04:36] <frenzy> macd: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11141/
[04:37] <macd> frenzy, my typo 'sudo mount -a'
[04:37] <ardchoille> matthew_: You can safely uninstall ubuntu-desktop if you want to.. it doesn't hurt anything.
[04:37] <BeepAU> someone1 - do you know what ndiswrapper is?
[04:37] <someone1> i've tried ndiswrapper
[04:37] <BeepAU> someone1 - kk
[04:38] <matthew_> ardchoille:  fine, but someone should change what it says in synaptic.  The description makes it sound like it's a vital package.
[04:38] <frenzy> macd: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdb1,

[04:40] <someone1> but... its not working "out of the box"
[04:40] <macd> frenzy, hdb1 is the NTFS partition?

[04:41] <Pelo> someone1, look up your card model and number in the forum , maybe someone esle had the same issue and posted a resolution
[04:41] <macd> frenzy, try this: sudo mount /dev/hdb1 /media/hdb/ -t ntfs -o nls=utf8,umask=0222
[04:41] <ardchoille> ben: just FYI, I have been using Ubuntu since Warty on 11 computers and have never seen the need for "force" in apt tools
[04:42] <whta> what directory do i copy font files to?

[04:49] <somatt> hello
[04:49] <somatt> can someone help me install ubuntu on a blueberry imac g3
[04:49] <sum0> somatt: allo
[04:49] <helpplz> I have a problem - started installing ubuntu on a computer that has win2k on it already.  Told the boot cd to resize partition and use freed space -  Step 5 of 6 but its sitting here forever with an animated cursor and no hard drive activity and no CD activity, with the CD spinning up and down randomly with no access light blinking
[04:50] <ant_> helpplz : windows doesnt like to be resized as i've heard
[04:50] <sum0> helpplz: had similar experience when windows volume needed to run chkdsk
[04:50] <Pelo> helpplz, resizing a partition is very very hard and intensive
[04:50] <somatt> windows does not like being resized
[04:51] <sum0> nonsense, i've resized ntfs partitions many times with gparted
[04:51] <somatt> especially since it uses blank space on the drive to save things like page file and stuff
[04:51] <sum0> just do a defrag first
[04:51] <Pelo> helpplz,  you are better off  backing up your files,  partitionning and installing windows from scratch,   also safer
[04:51] <ant_> we didn't say it couldnt be done.
[04:51] <Mirth> "To install your newly created package (which should be in whatever directory you were in when you ran apt-get --build source), run 'dpkg -i wine*.deb' as root."
[04:51] <sum0> and if it fails, boot up windows and let it run chkdsk
[04:51] <Mirth> I dont get that part...
[04:51] <somatt> but does anyone know how to install ubuntu on a blueberry imac g3?
[04:51] <ant_> helpplz : did you defrag first?
[04:52] <Pelo> Mirth,  what are you trying to do ?
[04:52] <Mirth> Install Wine
[04:52] <sum0> somatt: boot to ppc disc, attempt installation
[04:52] <somatt> hold down c?
[04:52] <somatt> on boot?
[04:52] <sum0> Mirth: did you download a wine deb package?
[04:52] <Pelo> Mirth,  just use the repos
[04:52] <Mirth> Yup
[04:53] <Mirth> Hrm, I don't know what Repos are.. :(
[04:53] <sum0> mirth: use aptitude, "sudo aptitude install wine" at a terminal
[04:53] <Mirth> okay
[04:53] <Pelo> Mirth,   www.winehq.org/download
[04:53] <sum0> mirth: don't forget to run "winecfg" when it's done
[04:53] <Pelo> sum0,  he needs the wine repos for that
[04:53] <somatt> sum0: i have downloaded ubuntu ppc version
[04:53] <somatt> sum0: i put it in the drive and held down c upon boot
[04:54] <somatt> sum0: and i get a folder and a unhappy face
[04:54] <somatt> then it boots to the hard drive
[04:54] <helpplz> Didnt defrag
[04:54] <sum0> somatt: did you run the checksum after you burned the disc
[04:54] <somatt> no how do i do that
[04:54] <Pelo> helpplz,  did you backup your windows stuff ?
[04:54] <sum0> somatt: it's usually part of your burn utility
[04:55] <sum0> somatt: it tests the disc's integrity
[04:55] <somatt> nero 6
[04:55] <sum0> somatt: you can also hold down option if it's an OS X hard drive to select the CDROM as the boot device
[04:55] <helpplz> Backup?  Whats that? :)  No backup but the data isnt important
[04:55] <ant_> helpplz : consider it a learning expirience then
[04:55] <giskardd> can someone guide me through installing ndiswrapper, i don't have a net connection to the repositories, so i download the packages manually...
[04:56] <sum0> i don't think helpplz data is gone
[04:56] <somatt> sum0:
[04:56] <somatt> sum0: i am using nero 6, the hard drive has osx on it but it is locked down with a password
[04:56] <giskardd> don't know if ubuntu cd has ndiswrapper
[04:56] <Pelo> helpplz,   my suggestion is crash your current install,   reboot from the live cd,  use gparted to make the partitions you need on the hdd, then install windows from scratch on the partition you made for it and intsall ubu on the other one
[04:56] <somatt> sum0: that is why i am installing ubuntu cuz i can't afford to buy a osx cd to break the password
[04:57] <sum0> somatt: try a boot holding down the 'option' key and see if you can select the CDROM as the boot device
[04:57] <Flannel> giskardd: the packages are on the CD
[04:57] <Flannel> giskardd: "sudo apt-cdrom add" to add the CD to your repositories, then you can install ndiswrapper as if you were on the interblags.
[04:57] <sum0> somatt: you might attempt a reburn of the disc too
[04:57] <somatt> sum0: thx i am trying that now
[04:58] <Mirth> Im not sure if Wine installed, lolz
[04:58] <ant_> type wine
[04:58] <sum0> Mirth: open a terminal and type 'winecfg'
[04:58] <somatt> sum0: does the ubuntu disc have to be in hfs
[04:58] <sum0> somatt: if you burned the disc image it will take care of itself
[04:58] <Mirth> bash: winecfg: command not found
[04:58] <somatt> ok cool
[04:58] <arpegius> i'm trying to install ntfs-3g on an amd64... following the instructions from http://ntfs-3g.sitesweetsite.info/ but the apt-get update its pulling errors. is this because of the architecture?
[04:58] <somatt> sum0: thx you are totally helping me
[04:59] <sum0> somatt: np, just stay in touch until it's resolved
[04:59] <macd> arpegius, why dont you pastebin your errors
[04:59] <sum0> Mirth: do you consider yourself technologically proficient?
[04:59] <helpplz> I thought having a linux utility that can resize your partition was too good to be true :)
[05:00] <sum0> helpplz: is your 2000 partition hosed?
[05:00] <Mirth> I do sum0
[05:00] <macd> to good to be true, but it works for thousands of people ;)
[05:00] <helpplz> checking now :)
[05:00] <Mirth> But this is my 2nd day in Ubuntu
[05:00] <Mirth> So It's like starting all over again :(
[05:00] <sum0> Mirth: have you ever been in /etc/apt/sources.list?
[05:01] <Mirth> Nope :(
[05:01] <Mirth> Not that I know of at least :D
[05:01] <helpplz> its my first day with ubuntu
[05:01] <sum0> Mirth: type 'nano' at the command line and see if you can make sense of the commands...if so, I'll fix you up
[05:01] <ant_> sum0 : i have faith in you
[05:01] <ant_> ;)
[05:01] <sum0> Mirth: the caret is the 'control' button
[05:02] <Mirth> Ah
[05:02] <arpegius> i'm trying to install ntfs-3g on an amd64... following the instructions from http://ntfs-3g.sitesweetsite.info/ but the apt-get update its pulling errors. is this because of the architecture? http://pastie.caboo.se/48126 ... it hangs on the last line
[05:02] <helpplz> Annnnnnnnnd.................its.........................boooooting in Win2k! LOL
[05:02] <sum0> helpplz: I figured you weren't hosed
[05:03] <helpplz> haha but its running chkdisk so maybe I am not out of the woods just yet ;)
[05:03] <sum0> helpplz: usually if gparted gets locked up, it can't change your windows partition because it either needs chkdsk or defargging
[05:03] <qc_doc> I have an existing RAID 1 server using Fedora 5.  Du to a kernel panic after an upgrade, I thought about installing Ubuntu 6.06 LTS Server.  Any thoughts?
[05:03] <somatt> sum0: ok so tried with ubuntu cd and still boots to hard drive with option key.  how do i burn the ubuntu image and verify the burn
[05:03] <sum0> somatt: the option key doesn't work and holding 'c' doesn't work?
[05:04] <somatt> option key does nothing
[05:04] <arnina> anyone know the def of "ssize_t"?
[05:04] <sum0> somatt: are we dealing with an encrypted OS X install
[05:04] <somatt> sum0: c key there is a folder icon with a unhappy face
[05:04] <somatt> sum0: it requires a password to get in
[05:04] <somatt> sum0: so i am assuming encrypted
[05:05] <sum0> somatt: get in how?  at the login screen or at the console?
[05:05] <macd> arpegius, can you also pastie your /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:05] <helpplz> darn it windows came up.....now I can't just format sniffle...
[05:06] <somatt> sum0:
[05:06] <Pelo> helpplz,  yes you can,  have some courage
[05:06] <Mirth> So what exactly am I doing in this Nano screen sum0?
[05:06] <somatt> sum0: when it boots it goes straight to a login screen
[05:06] <sum0> Mirth: does it make sense to you?
[05:06] <giskardd> thanks Flannel, will try
[05:06] <Mirth> Yup
[05:07] <arpegius> macd: http://pastie.caboo.se/48126
[05:07] <Mirth> Looks like a neat little text editor.
[05:07] <sum0> Mirth: if so, get out of it, punch in 'sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list' and remove the # from the lines that say 'universe'
[05:07] <sum0> Mirth: then save and exit, type 'sudo aptitude update'
[05:07] <sum0> Mirth: then 'sudo aptitude install wine'
[05:07] <macd> arpegius, you must not have read the instructions, choose ONE of the repos. use the first "deb http://flomertens.keo.in/ubuntu/ edgy main-all" delete the second 2.
[05:08] <sum0> Mirth: and after that go back in there and add the # back
[05:08] <ant_> sum0 : i've never heard someone say to put it back.
[05:08] <fatpelt> evening all.  i'm looking for inotify-tools.  it seems that there is a package available on feisty but not on edgy.   is there any way to tell if there is an edgy package ?
[05:09] <fatpelt> i think i've got all the sources enabled and apt-cache doesn't seem to think there is one
[05:09] <ant_> sum0 : why, respectively
[05:09] <macd> arpegius, and go uncomment lines 30,31 40,41 46,47, delete lines: 49,50,55,56
[05:09] <sum0> ant_: so it doesn't effect your next update and dependencies
[05:09] <sum0> ant_: it's a personal preference, but if you're willing to run unstable, you can leave universe activated
[05:09] <Pelo> fatpelt,  go to there site and look for a .deb package, you can install that easily if threr is one
[05:09] <somatt> sum0: so what do you think?
[05:10] <ant_> sum0 : ahh, one word stability.. good reason
[05:10] <sum0> somatt: if it won't boot to the cd with the HD disconnected, there's something wrong with the CD
[05:10] <fatpelt> pelo it says that there is a debian unstable/testing package.  can i install that in edgy ?
[05:10] <helpplz> How often are Linux distro's installed from inside a booted linux OS cd?  Seems kind of odd and slow etc...
[05:10] <arnina> in which method can i convert the form of manpage to PDF
[05:10] <somatt> sum0: how to disconnect hard drive?
[05:10] <Pelo> fatpelt,  probably
[05:10] <cafuego_> helpplz: To a certain extent, ALL are.
[05:10] <Jordan_U> fatpelt, I am on Feisty and I don't see a package "inotify-tools"
[05:10] <macd> helpplz, you mean installed from a livecd?
[05:10] <sum0> somatt: on a blueberry imac you're in for a world of hurt and some very odd tools
[05:11] <helpplz> yes livecd
[05:11] <sum0> somatt: this from someone that's apple certified
[05:11] <cafuego_> helpplz: Most don't boot up into a full livecd environment though, most boot just a kernel and then start the installer.
[05:11] <cafuego_> helpplz: If that's what you want, the ubuntu `alternate' cd does just that
[05:11] <sum0> somatt: if it's not yours, just boot OS X holding 's' and hose the OS X install
[05:11] <macd> helpplz, well you have the advantage with a livecd install of having a working system tested already, rather than dealing with installing a abse system and hoping for no dependency problems
[05:11] <arpegius> macd: that #1 repo for ntfs-3g 302s... what does that mean?
[05:11] <fatpelt> Jordan_U: hmm.  https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/feisty/+source/inotify-tools  must not be *official* then....
[05:11] <ant_> its the new thing, so you can use the OS without actually installing it
[05:11] <macd> arpegius, reread the last line I posted for you
[05:11] <bur[n] er> anyone know why I get this?  http://burner.ath.cx/gnome-settings-daemon.png  It takes like 5 minutes for gnome to start
[05:11] <somatt> sum0: so if i boot holding s it will wipe?
[05:11] <macd> arpegius, and go uncomment lines 30,31 40,41 46,47, delete lines: 49,50,55,56
[05:12] <sum0> somatt: no, that's single user mode
[05:12] <sum0> somatt: still need unix commands to hose it
[05:12] <Pelo> helpplz,  the thing about instaling from the live cd is you can play with the distro while you are installing,  , try the games , they're fun
[05:12] <arpegius> macd: right, which leaves the flomertens one
[05:12] <LadyNikon> !grub
[05:12] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[05:12] <macd> arpegius, exactly.
[05:12] <Jordan_U> helpplz, If you want a stripped down install CD you can go with the alternate text-based install CD
[05:12] <arpegius> macd: which 302s...
[05:12] <sum0> helpplz: live cd's are good for testing compatibility prior to full installation
[05:13] <macd> it doesnt here
[05:13] <arpegius> macd: weird...brb
[05:13] <macd> but the sitesweetsite one does 302 here
[05:13] <Mirth> sum0, is Writeout the same as Save?
[05:13] <slavik> anyone have an SMP system here?
[05:13] <sum0> Mirth: yes
[05:13] <Mirth> okay
[05:13] <macd> slavik, yes
[05:13] <slavik> macd: how many CPUs?
[05:14] <helpplz> Well if I had 1 more CDR I would use the alternate CD :)  But yeah I understand the point of testing before the install that is definitly a good idea..
[05:14] <macd> slavik, 2 or 32 it doesnt really matter
[05:14] <slavik> macd: can you test some code for me? ^^
[05:14] <ahron> i need help. im in feisty and when i add a program to the gnome startup programs and close the box it dosent save the new program i added, if i open the sessions box back up it goes to the default startup programs. i assume its a premisions issue. can someone help please?
[05:14] <macd> slavik, sure
[05:15] <Mirth> sum0, I got this in the terminal after it was updating or whatever:
[05:15] <Mirth> W: GPG error: http://wine.budgetdedicated.com edgy Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 58403026387EE263

[05:15] <tracyMKII> hi im trying to set up my wireless router. i brought it from home to my apartment. worked fine at home, but not working for me here. do i need to do this: http://sarwiki.informatik.hu-berlin.de/Programming_the_Linksys_WRT54GS_Wireless_Broadband_Router
[05:15] <Pelo> ahron,  menu > system > admin > users :   change your permissions there
[05:15] <macd> Mirth, you can disregard that for now
[05:15] <slavik> macd: may I PM you?
[05:15] <sum0> Mirth: it's okay, you can proceed with that host
[05:15] <Mirth> Ah, okay
[05:15] <macd> slavik, yeah but I cant do dcc, firewall.
[05:15] <slavik> ahh
[05:16] <cafuego_> slavik: I have a nice smp system
[05:16] <ahron> Pelo how will that help my problem with startup programs being added in the sessions dialog box
[05:16] <greig_> hi all. is it possible to run windows xp within ubuntu?
[05:16] <sum0> Mirth: repo's or 'repositories' are encrypted with GPG keys to be safe.  If you added it on purpose, you can assume you know what you're doing
[05:16] <Pelo> ahron,  give yourself permissions to add the programs
[05:16] <slavik> cafuego_: mind testing some code? (a threaded 200 by 200 matrix multiplier
[05:16] <Jordan_U> greg_g, Yes, with Vmware player or qemu
[05:16] <ahron> Pelo ok let me try that
[05:16] <helpplz> One more thing why does Ubuntu think New York is GMT-4:00?
[05:17] <Mirth> Oh
[05:17] <fatpelt> helpplz: isn't it right now?  utah is -6 right now
[05:17] <Mirth> I got this after doing that install command:
[05:17] <Mirth> Install the following packages:

[05:17] <ahron> Pelo where is the option in the user premisions window to add premision to change startup programs  for my session
[05:17] <Mirth> Writing extended state information... Done
[05:17] <Jordan_U> !paste | Mirth
[05:17] <Flannel> Mirth: please don't paste here.
[05:17] <ubotu> Mirth: 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)
[05:17] <Mirth> Is that good?
[05:17] <Pelo> Mirth,  why are you making this so hard ?
[05:17] <Mirth> Oh, oops
[05:18] <sum0> Mirth: use a capital Y to accept
[05:18] <Mirth> I don't know...
[05:18] <helpplz> Eastern time is always GMT-5:00 right?
[05:18] <macd> Mirth, you really just need to add universe and use synaptic to install wine.
[05:18] <Pelo> Mirth, hold on , we can do this in two shakes
[05:18] <fatpelt> helpplz: you talking standard or daylight savings ?
[05:18] <cafuego_> slavik: if you put it onlien and msg me the link, sure; but I need to go off into a meeting atm.

[05:19] <my-nick> i recently installed apache http server but i cant view folders created under /var/www/
[05:19] <helpplz> Are you saying that its saying GMT-4:00 instead of -5:00 because of Daylight saving time?
[05:19] <fatpelt> helpplz: yes
[05:19] <my-nick> the site gave me forbidden access error
[05:20] <greig_> ant_ I ment, is there some kind of emulator to run XP within ubuntu
[05:20] <ahron> when i goto menu > system > Preferances > session . and add a new startup program then hit close the new startup program dosent save it just disapears. can anyone help?
[05:20] <ant_> greig_ : oh sorry
[05:20] <macd> my-nick, yes change the permissions to www-data
[05:20] <fatpelt> greig_: you need a new processor
[05:20] <fatpelt> greig_: one with the new virtualization technologies
[05:20] <macd> fatlip, no you dont.
[05:20] <macd> err
[05:20] <macd> fatpelt, no, you dont.
[05:20] <ant_> lol
[05:20] <helpplz> Thats crazy i've never noticed -4:00 anywhere makes sense though LOL :)
[05:20] <my-nick> macd , how do i do dat
[05:20] <slavik> macd and cafuego_, I am going to post it in the programming forum in a moment
[05:20] <sum0> greig_: VMWare is the best if you can get it to work, but it is always better to dual boot
[05:21] <macd> my-nick, "sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /directory-you-want-to-change-here"
[05:21] <fatpelt> greig_: ah yes.  a purely vmware solution would do it
[05:21] <fernandolima> hello
[05:21] <macd> vmware-server is free now, FYI, its also built statically.
[05:21] <greig_> what is the difference between wine and vmware?
[05:21] <my-nick> www-data?
[05:21] <ahron> please someone help me with this gnome startup programs issue
[05:21] <macd> wine is a emulator, vmware is an virtual machine
[05:22] <my-nick> do you mean /var/www ?
[05:22] <macd> my-nick, yes, www-data
[05:22] <Joshoo1> macd: Wine Is Not an Emulator
[05:22] <ant_> ahron : #ubuntu+1
[05:22] <arejay> vmware is a virtual machine and wine is wine is not an emulator
[05:22] <sum0> Joshoo1: lol
[05:22] <macd> my-nick, type what I said, and make the dir /var/www
[05:22] <arejay> ah :)
[05:22] <macd> blah, wine is wine is wine
[05:22] <fatpelt> my crap we split hairs in here
[05:22] <arejay> those clever devs at wine with there acronyms
[05:22] <greig_> so to run xp within linux u sugguest vmware?
[05:22] <my-nick> sorry, i'm a bit lost here
[05:22] <cafuego_> greig_: Yup, works fine.
[05:23] <XP> i suggest u try virtualbox
[05:23] <Joshoo1> greig_: Yes, WINE will let you run programs, but not windows itself
[05:23] <XP> it's very fast imo
[05:23] <macd> my-nick, "sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /directory-you-want-to-change-here"
[05:23] <macd> my-nick, "sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www"
[05:23] <Joshoo1> greig_: But it will run really slow that way
[05:23] <my-nick> owh
[05:23] <my-nick> thanx
[05:23] <my-nick> i'll try dat macd
[05:23] <helpplz> Does anyone have any other idea other than defrag/chkdisk?  (It stopped again)
[05:23] <ablyss> vmware usually takes a licensed copy of windows ( or another OS you want to install ) whereas wine will runs most native windows regardless if you own a windows cd
[05:24] <ahron> when i goto menu > system > Preferances > session . and add a new startup program then hit close the new startup program dosent save it just disapears. can anyone help?

[05:30] <benji> can anyone help
[05:30] <sum0> benji: what errror message?
[05:30] <macd> my-nick, prolly the disk has been init more than X times or been X days since the last fsck, forcing fsck
[05:31] <my-nick> it asked me root password to run maintenance, otherwise press ctrl-d to resume boot
[05:31] <my-nick> ok
[05:31] <benji> ben@ben-ubuntu:/tmp/vmware-server-distrib$ sudo ./vmware-install.pl
[05:31] <benji> A previous installation of VMware software has been detected.
[05:31] <benji> The previous installation was made by the tar installer (version 3).
[05:31] <benji> Keeping the tar3 installer database format.
[05:31] <benji> Error: Unable to execute "/usr/bin/vmware-uninstall.pl.
[05:31] <benji> Failure
[05:31] <macd> yeah just hit crtl-d
[05:31] <benji> Execution aborted.
[05:31] <benji> ben@ben-ubuntu:/tmp/vmware-server-distrib$
[05:31] <my-nick> but it asked me to do it manually
[05:31] <benji> thats what I got
[05:31] <macd> benji, thats the number 1 question on the VMWARE FAQ.
[05:31] <DivineLight> Flannel: thanks but why it's no link from Ubuntu home page, or it's not easily visible
[05:32] <my-nick> i did it already, but kept show error on my fsck.ext3
[05:32] <benji> really where can I find the FAQ at
[05:32] <ant_> lol
[05:32] <sum0> macd: linky for the gent?
[05:32] <my-nick> i ran fsck
[05:32] <my-nick> does it have to do with ntfs-3g?
[05:32] <Flannel> DivineLight: because there's no real need for most people to go there.
[05:33] <my-nick> coz the partition used to be an ntfs part
[05:33] <my-nick> now i changed it to ext3
[05:33] <Flannel> DivineLight: ontop of that, it's not official.
[05:33] <helpplz> Please dont kick me out of the channel, but (just real quick) does anyone know when is the first Star Wars Trilogy (Episode I, II, III) is coming out?
[05:33] <Flannel> helpplz: #ubuntu-offtopic.  That's horribly offtopic.
[05:33] <DivineLight> Flannel: It is for those peope which can't get their modem working on Ubuntu, and there are lots of em
[05:33] <nonuda_> how do i make my pcmcia modem work?, lspcmcia and lspci show me this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11145/
[05:33] <benji> macD is the FAQ at vmware.com
[05:33] <my-nick> maybe its coz automatix auto-mount ntfs volume thingy
[05:33] <macd> benji, just use the vmware-uninstall.pl script.
[05:33] <Flannel> DivineLight: ndiswrapper is available on the CD.
[05:33] <benji> i dont know the code
[05:34] <sum0> Flannel: LOL
[05:34] <benji> im new to linux
[05:34] <nhy> Are there any feisty powerpc users here?
[05:34] <macd> benji, in the directory you typed vnware-install.pl type vmware-uninstall.pl
[05:34] <Flannel> nhy: try #ubuntu+1 (the feisty channel)
[05:34] <sum0> nhy: no but there aren't many red-headed asians either
[05:34] <nhy> I'v made Beryl debs for powerpc feisty if any wants to try them
[05:35] <nhy> ok
[05:35] <ant_> !automatix | my-nick
[05:35] <ubotu> my-nick: 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
[05:35] <Flannel> nhy: that's #ubuntu-effects (beryl)
[05:35] <benji> ben@ben-ubuntu:/tmp/vmware-server-distrib$ sudo ./vmware-uninstall.pl
[05:35] <benji> sudo: ./vmware-uninstall.pl: command not found
[05:35] <benji> thats what I get
[05:35] <my-nick> i see
[05:35] <macd> benji, do an ls in that directory, maybe I mispelled the command
[05:36] <benji> whats that
[05:36] <macd> benji oh man ;P
[05:36] <slvmchn> is there a command line method of burning an .iso to a cd
[05:36] <benji> if I gave u remote access to my dektop could u fix it?
[05:36] <macd> benji, type 'ls'
[05:36] <Flannel> !burn | slvmchn
[05:36] <ubotu> slvmchn: 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
[05:36] <benji> bin  doc  etc  FILES  installer  lib  man  sbin  vmware-install.pl  vmware-vix
[05:36] <my-nick> thanx guys
[05:37] <macd> benji, uhh prolly, but Id rather help you solve it so you learn a lil something
[05:37] <bur[n] er> benji, just remove /etc/vmware :)
[05:37] <macd> bur[n] er, that works, but where did the uninstall script go?

[05:38] <benji> reove it
[05:38] <benji> remove?
[05:38] <arpegius> how can i get a list of hard drive paths?
[05:38] <bur[n] er> benji, sudo rm -rf /etc/vmware and then try to reinstall, it won't find a previous installation
[05:38] <adam_> how do I open a .exe in ubuntu/linux
[05:38] <Flannel> !wine | adam_
[05:38] <ubotu> adam_: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[05:38] <bur[n] er> adam_, depends on the .exe, for the most part, wine is the answer
[05:39] <mlevin> hey folks - quick question re: system-config-printer
[05:39] <`Lucas> Hey, is it possible to install wine using Xubuntu?
[05:39] <adam_> I'm trying to use wine to install WoW, and I am stuck trying to get the blizzard downloader.exe to open
[05:39] <nonuda_> guys, i'm so desperate to make my pcmcia modem works under kubuntu, any1 can help me?
[05:39] <Flannel> adam_: Ah.  Check the forums (ubuntuforums.org), there's... a bunch of howtos on installing WoW
[05:39] <benji> ok i will redo the installation right now
[05:39] <benji> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=183209&highlight=vmware+howto   Is this a good guide
[05:40] <mlevin> just installed 6.06 - in xfce in settings menu if I choose printing setup, it always asks for root pw, but of course there is no root -- if I do gksudo system-config-printer from terminal it works, but how do I fix the menu option? what file do I fix?
[05:40] <adam_> I have the how to's I just can't figure out how to get then .exe to open and run
[05:40] <Pelo> g'night folks
[05:40] <adam_> in terminal its like.... wine blahblah.exe    ?
[05:40] <Flannel> mlevin: does your user password not work in that dialog?
[05:40] <rickyfingers> anyone have this problem: can't launch a terminal after installing nVidia drivers?
[05:40] <mlevin> it is actually asking for ROOT password if I choose it in the menu -- if I do gksudo system-config-printer from terminal, MY pw works fine
[05:41] <ant_> adam_ : yes
[05:41] <mlevin> just want to alter the menu so it runs under gksudo
[05:41] <mlevin> can't find it!
[05:41] <Flannel> mlevin: right, just because it asks for root, doesn't mean it actually wants it.  Does your user password work?
[05:41] <mlevin> ah, didn't try that ;-)
[05:42] <mlevin> but in any case, where do I edit that menu? it doesn't look like the "settings" submenu is defined in any .xml I can find
[05:42] <nhy> Whats the difference between wireless-dev and softmac?
[05:42] <nhy> I'm talking about bcm43xx
[05:43] <Flannel> mlevin: I have no idea.  You might try asking in #xubuntu.  If no one's alive there, and especially, if it doesn't work (really is asking/wanting for root), file a bug (launchpad.net), and... in some time, you'll get a response (with a workaround, if not an updated package)
[05:43] <mlevin> adam_ -- I just installed wine today and gave it a spin and it worked great :-)
[05:43] <Flannel> mlevin: It should go pretty quick (the launchpad response), but I dont knwo exactly how quickly
[05:43] <PurpZeY> Hey all. I am not going to lie, I am total noob w/ ubuntu and linux in general...I am trying to instal Ubuntu via Wubi, so I don't have to drop my windows just yet...I managed to install via Wubi just fine, I can boot into ubunu after bootup, but then I just get some sort of menu that is not a GUI at all, and doesn't seem to respond to commands...Can someone help me out?
[05:43] <adam_> mlevin - how do i open the .exe using wine?
[05:43] <mlevin> ok I will try that - thanks
[05:44] <mlevin> wine /path/to/your/exe once wine is installed
[05:44] <mlevin> install the pkg and then run winecfg once
[05:44] <levander> What's the easiest way to upgrade to Flash 9 in Edgy?
[05:45] <macd> anyone know if they are going to tie the forums and lp together from a suerbase point of view?
[05:45] <macd> userbase*
[05:45] <bur[n] er> levander, add backports repository
[05:45] <bur[n] er> !backports |levander
[05:45] <ubotu> levander: If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports
[05:45] <Flannel> macd: doubt it.
[05:45] <macd> Ive been seeing talk about LP and the wiki
[05:46] <levander> bur[n] er: yeah, i've been hesitant to enable backports.  I wish I could just specify specific packages I want out of backports, and not have to worry if when I'm installing a new application if it's coming outta backports or the regular repositories.
[05:46] <Flannel> macd: yeah, those two are a lot more closely tied.  But, this is offtopic.  See you in #ubuntu-offtopic ;)
[05:46] <sum0> levander: enable long enough to install application, disable afterwards
[05:46] <bur[n] er> levander, why be hesitant?  I'd go for it
[05:46] <PurpZeY> Can someone help me out, I am basically just trying to get started and I can't get to the GUI at all...I think ubuntu may not be finding the kernel...
[05:47] <levander> PurpZeY: did it boot?
[05:47] <levander> are you on a command line
[05:47] <bur[n] er> PurpZeY, you already installed or is this the livecd?
[05:47] <PurpZeY> levander: It booted, but it doesn't seem to be a simple command line..e.g. bash etc...It is a blank command line
[05:47] <levander> bur[n] er: you don't know how to make it that I explicitly specify if I want a project out of backports do you?
[05:47] <Flannel> levander: you can.  Download them from packages.ubuntu.com and install them manually (dpkg -i)
[05:47] <PurpZeY> The menu preceeding it has -A <command>, -P <command>
[05:47] <ubuntu> SAY MY DIG
[05:47] <levander> PurpZeY: what happens when you type 'ls' on this command line?
[05:47] <adam_> whats the path to the linux desktop?
[05:48] <Flannel> levander: that's the easiest way to use backports.
[05:48] <levander> Flannel: that sux
[05:48] <Flannel> levander: No it doesn't.  If you want, you can double click them as well.  Shrug.  Not all of us have GUIs ;)

[05:48] <PurpZeY> levander: I installed via Wubi and I am back on windows on this machine, so I will boot back to linux and switch over on my laptop and come back so I can be more specific
[05:49] <adam_> so,     wine ~/Desktop/wowclient-downloader.exe/             ?
[05:49] <levander> Flannel: but then I have to navigate around backports every time I want a package and see manually if backports has it.  I can't just 'apt-cache search <package name>'
[05:49] <sum0> ubuntu: you have a defective keyboard
[05:49] <bur[n] er> PurpZeY, wtf is wubi?
[05:49] <Flannel> levander: Packages.ubuntu.com isn't really "manual"
[05:49] <levander> PurpZeY: what is Wubi?

[05:49] <ubuntu> DFV
[05:49] <ubuntu> DF
[05:49] <bimberi> ubuntu: please stop
[05:49] <levander> Flannel: a lot more manual than 'apt-cache search'
[05:49] <PurpZeY> Wubi is a non-official installer, that will install unbuntu into a windows partioned drive
[05:50] <bur[n] er> there's your problem ;)
[05:50] <levander> PurpZeY: yeesh
[05:50] <mjhb> i just ran an update and when i login to gnome it's just a white screen
[05:50] <Flannel> levander: Yeah, well.  You could enable backports, and go that route.  Just make sure you don't upgrade with them installed.

[05:50] <mjhb> anybody else have that problem?
[05:50] <Flannel> PurpZeY: no, you can have more than one partition on a drive.
[05:51] <bitblit> hey guys; i am using the ubuntu 6.10 live cd, but can not see my SATA controller. it is an integrated controller in an ABIT NF7-S mobo. any thoughts?
[05:51] <levander> PurpZeY: there are ways to resize the existing Windows partition if that's what you need to do, but i've never done it
[05:51] <sum0> PurpZeY: the live CD uses no HD, but if you install it will resize your Windows partition
[05:51] <giskardd> ok, i'm having one heck of a trouble installing ndiswrapper
[05:52] <PurpZeY> sum0: I am just paranoid about that, I mean, I am willing to give it a try, but I fooled around w/ SuSe about 5 years ago and it totally screwed the rest of my HD, and then I didn't have anything.
[05:52] <Flannel> giskardd: did you add the CD to your repositories? (`sudo apt-cdrom add`)
[05:52] <giskardd> yes Flannel
[05:52] <levander> PurpZeY: most people recommend backing up before resizing a partition though
[05:52] <levander> PurpZeY: unless a clean install won't make you lose nothing
[05:52] <slvmchn> what's an easy command line for just wiping a drive and formatting it for unix
[05:52] <kupesoft> What's a webcam that works for Linux?
[05:52] <slvmchn> i got halfway through an ubuntu install but the disc was scratched
[05:52] <Flannel> giskardd: and then you updated your repositories and installed ndiswrapper packages?
[05:52] <sum0> PurpZeY: when you run the live CD there is a link to install on the desktop...just don't click that link and explore for a while until you are comfortable
[05:52] <giskardd> yes Flannel
[05:52] <slvmchn> it seemed to partition this drive but left it in msdos mode
[05:53] <levander> bitblit: abit-usa.com has forums, i'd check there...
[05:53] <levander> bitblit: ubuntuforums.org may help too
[05:53] <Flannel> !wifi | giskardd
[05:53] <ubotu> giskardd: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:53] <Flannel> giskardd: did you read the howto for ndiswrapper there?
[05:53] <nhy> I know that this is very much NOT the right place to ask... But I don't know where else to ask. I have a friend that wants to install Linux but doesn't want to lose his windows genuine advantage. Is it possible to disable genuine advantage somehow in case something goes wrong?
[05:53] <J-23> He;;p
[05:53] <J-23> *hello
[05:53] <PurpZeY> sum0: I am sorry, I am not a total idiot, but I am totally unfamiliar with linux, LiveCD is bootable, and then I can just "fool around" without having to do any partioning?
[05:53] <bitblit> levander: thanks, i'll check
[05:53] <Wo|f> What file would I edit to get the screen resolution for the login screen fixed? I installed fglrx-control and rebooted after. Now I can't see the bottom of the login page where the buttons and the hostname and time and date are
[05:53] <mjhb> i just ran an update and when i login to gnome it's just a white screen, beryl is screwed (using feisty)
[05:54] <Flannel> mjhb: #ubuntu-effects for beryl support, #ubuntu+1 for feisty support.
[05:54] <sum0> nhy: there is no need...linux does not invalidate WGA if you install a dual-boot system
[05:54] <nhy> I know
[05:54] <levander> nhy: episteme.arstechnica.com is prolly the best place i know of to ask that
[05:54] <nhy> I'm saying in case the partition gets messed up
[05:54] <levander> mjhb: beryl is pretty beta from what i've read, if you use it, be prepared to troubleshoot
[05:54] <sum0> PurpZeY: yes...you can download and burn the ubuntu cd and play with it without installing it
[05:54] <bur[n] er> beryl is rad :)
[05:55] <Flannel> nhy: You'll need to reinstall windows.  You can backup your activation dll doohickey, and not need to phone in to Big Brother.
[05:55] <giskardd> Flannel: yes, i don't know what i messed up, ndiswrapper still shows as a command not found
[05:55] <sum0> PurpZey: it will give you a full desktop without obligation to install anything
[05:55] <nhy> I'm asking how you back it up
[05:55] <Flannel> giskardd: I don't believe ndiswrapper is a command you run.  Does the howto say you should?
[05:55] <mjhb> levander: FUNNY IS WAS RUNNING JUST PERFECTLY
[05:55] <bur[n] er> nhy, i use driveimagexml... runtime.org
[05:55] <Flannel> nhy: http://www.theeldergeek.com/activation_workaround.htm
[05:55] <levander> nhy: stompsoft has some free trial backup software for Windows that you can use for 30 days...
[05:55] <ant_> giskardd : you trying to get your broadcom to work?
[05:55] <sum0> nhy: i fthe partition gets messed up and he has to reinstall windows, you can call an 800 number and reactivate your windows installatino

[05:56] <JBLoudG20> hey
[05:56] <mjhb> levander: there were no BERYL updates but UBUNTU ones which seemed to HAVE BROKEN IT
[05:56] <PurpZeY> sum0: Awesome. I am definitely going to do that. One last thing, and you may not know this but, if I were to try and repartion, is there some software in particular you recommend for backing up my old partion so that if things get screwy I can boot back to the CD and recover?
[05:56] <levander> nhy: nevermind what i said
[05:56] <JBLoudG20> can someone help me to change my default sound card?
[05:56] <nhy> ok
[05:56] <Flannel> mjhb: Feisty is alpha software.  Please go ask in #ubuntu+1, this is not the correct channel.
[05:56] <PurpZeY> sum0: (that would be in windows obviously)
[05:56] <giskardd> ant_: its a sis163u chipset
[05:56] <levander> mjhb: i don't use beryl, i don't know, i'm just saying lots of people have problems with it, it's still beta
[05:56] <giskardd> i already have my broadcom working
[05:56] <sum0> PurpZeY: just backup your important files (pictures, videos, music, etc..)  plain ol' DVD's work great
[05:57] <Flannel> giskardd: which ndiswrapper packages did you install?  (open synaptic, and you should see the little green box next to them)
[05:57] <levander> PurpZeY: if you wanna back up the whole thing though, stompsoft
[05:57] <ant_> giskardd : what did you do to get your broadcom to work? i hear its difficult
[05:57] <bitblit> no luck; so does ubuntu have sata drivers built in?
[05:57] <giskardd> ant_: ndiswrapper
[05:57] <ant_> ?
[05:58] <sum0> bitblit: i'm running sata right now
[05:58] <sum0> bitblit: nothing special, just default installer
[05:58] <ant_> but you cant get ndiswrapper to work...
[05:58] <giskardd> Flannel: ndiswrapper-utils-1.8
[05:58] <Wo|f> ant_, I just went here and downloaded the firmware package - http://ubuntu.cafuego.net/dists/feisty-cafuego/
[05:58] <bitblit> sum0: just wondering why it's not detecting my SiI3112 (abit nf7-s)
[05:58] <giskardd> that's on another pc ant_
[05:58] <Flannel> giskardd: you also need the -common ones
[05:58] <giskardd> Flannel: got 'em
[05:58] <sum0> bitblit: does the installer not recognize it?
[05:59] <Flannel> giskardd: this is dapper or edgy?
[05:59] <bitblit> sum0: right; it only sees my IDE drives.
[05:59] <PurpZeY> Ok.
[05:59] <bitblit> sum0: and i can't install on those
[05:59] <Flannel> bitblit: does your BIOS see the SATA ones?
[05:59] <Wo|f> I'm running Edgy, and the package worked fine with my Linksys WPC11 (it's a couple years old, I don't recall which version)
[05:59] <PurpZeY> Thanks guys. What are the general differences b/w ubuntu and edubuntu?
[05:59] <Wo|f> Using it right now
[05:59] <Wo|f> :)
[05:59] <giskardd> Flannel: also got -common, -utils ,-utils-1.1 , -utils-1.8, and edgy
[05:59] <bitblit> Flannel: yes; i am running xp on partition 1 of sata 1.
[06:00] <bitblit> Flannel: and the bios does detect them on boot
[06:00] <Flannel> giskardd: er... you... installed 1.1 as well as 1.8?
[06:00] <ant_> i have a friend that couldnt get his broadcom to work at all, it pushed him away from ubuntu :(
[06:00] <giskardd> 1.1 was already installed Flannel
[06:00] <giskardd> so, i remove 1.1?
[06:00] <Flannel> giskardd: ndiswrapper-1.8 is the command.
[06:00] <giskardd> ok, will try that
[06:01] <Wo|f> I've got the same package running on my Dell Inspiron 1501, just trying to sort out if it's me or the Network Manager that makes it hang
[06:01] <ant_> use tab completion
[06:01] <Flannel> giskardd: oh, wait.  ndiswrapper is too.
[06:01] <sum0> PurpZeY: the package set..Ubuntu is general desktop, edubuntu is more educational like school labs and such
[06:01] <Flannel> giskardd: You're sure you have -common installed?
[06:01] <bitblit> what's strange is that i remember installing 6.06 before on my sata drive.. i just threw that cd out last week though..
[06:01] <giskardd> Flannel, yes
[06:01] <PurpZeY> K. Thanks for all your help.
[06:01] <Flannel> PurpZeY: Edubunu is more geared towards a classroom, as in ... a teacher with a bunch of students, with the ability to take over screens and stuff.
[06:01] <giskardd> all green Flannel
[06:02] <Flannel> giskardd: if that's installed, then you *do* have ndiswrapper installed, and the command is 'ndiswrapper'.  Make sure you're using all lowercase, and with sudo.
[06:02] <Wo|f> ant_, bummer
[06:02] <ant_> oh well, i'm happy ;)
[06:02] <giskardd> ndiswrapper-1.8 seems to be there
[06:02] <Wo|f> ant_, your friend should give it another shot. I was able to play around with the live CD on my laptop and try out things, including that issue with the WiFi
[06:03] <giskardd> ndiswrapper alone : command not found flamesrock
[06:03] <giskardd> i mean Flannel
[06:03] <Flannel> giskardd: with sudo?
[06:03] <giskardd> yep
[06:03] <ant_> wolf : i will, you say just install the firmware?
[06:03] <Flannel> giskardd: I ... honestly can't say I believe you.  Or at least, provided that ndiswrapper-common is installed correctly.
[06:03] <Wo|f> ant_, Your mileage may vary :)
[06:04] <giskardd> Flannel: i ain't kidding you
[06:04] <Wo|f> ant_, Try it from the Live CD
[06:04] <Flannel> giskardd: remove (completely) all the ndiswrapper packages, then reinstall them
[06:04] <PurpZeY> Is there a seperate download for the LiveCD or is that just the regular CD download?
[06:04] <giskardd> Flannel: ok
[06:04] <Wo|f> ant_, I was able to dpkg -i <package>
[06:04] <Wo|f> ant_, then just played around with iwconfig and the default Network utilities
[06:04] <sum0> PurpZeY: just use the i386 download if appropriate
[06:04] <giskardd> Flannel: will i be able to retrieve them from the CD later?
[06:04] <sum0> PurpZeY:put the CD in before the system boots
[06:04] <Flannel>  giskardd yes, they're on the CD.
[06:05] <ant_> sounds iffy, but worth a shot
[06:05] <Flannel> PurpZeY: the "Desktop CD" is the liveCD.
[06:05] <PurpZeY> sum0: I got that much figured out...=)
[06:05] <sum0> PurpZeY: sorry...gotta cover the bases
[06:05] <giskardd> Flannel: done, reinstall them?
[06:05] <Flannel> giskardd: yeah.
[06:05] <Flannel> giskardd: just utils-1.8 and -common
[06:05] <toulouse> ing up my sound card, how do i find what is doing this??
[06:06] <toulouse> something is jamming up my sound card
[06:06] <PurpZeY> sum0: I did tech support for a while (in windows obviously)...I hear you
[06:06] <toulouse> i want to kill it, but how
[06:06] <nonuda_> !modem
[06:06] <ubotu> You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[06:06] <Wo|f> ant_, If the Edgy package doesn't work, try the Feisty one from that same site. I honestly can't recall which one I'm using on the laptop, but the Edgy one seems to do fine with the PC I'm on now and that particular WiFi PCI card. You may want to double check the Broadcom firmware your friend's system has
[06:06] <sum0> toulouse: more info pls
[06:06] <giskardd> Flannel: i got ndiswrapper now :) , will try installing driver, thanks a bunch
[06:06] <ant_> feisty may have fixed some things...?
[06:06] <toulouse> well, xmms will not work, it says something is jamming up the sound card
[06:07] <toulouse> so i tried restarting x, but that did nothing for me
[06:07] <Flannel> giskardd: glad to hear it's figured out
[06:07] <sum0> toulouse: resource in use error?
[06:07] <GenNMX> Is there any off-chance anyone knows anything about "cdrom_pc_intr: The drive appears confused (ireason 0x01)"? dmesg is getting this spammed and hald-addon-storage locks up my system every ~4 minutes.
[06:07] <toulouse> sum0: yes
[06:07] <Wo|f> ant_, OK if I /msg you?
[06:07] <giskardd> Flannel: i don't know how i messed that up :S
[06:07] <sum0> toulouse: which version (6.1, etc?)
[06:07] <ant_> sure

[06:08] <sp0ro> Anyone have any idea why my ATI video card driver resets to a Mesa driver when I try to setup AIGLX?
[06:08] <toulouse> 1.2.1
[06:08] <toulouse> the one in the repos
[06:09] <toulouse> it says to make sure my sound card is config'd properly, and that no other app is blocking soundcard
[06:09] <kupesoft> What package installs the manpages for c development?
[06:10] <Wo|f> ah crud, private /msg doesn't work

[06:12] <ant_> when we played with it i was just getting into ubuntu and he was wanting to do the same.. he soon lost interest, but i have a little dirt under my fingers now
[06:12] <kupesoft> What package installs the docs for c?
[06:12] <Wo|f> ant_, Nice.
[06:13] <bionic_seahorse> anybody have a working dual-head setup using an ATI card?
[06:13] <ant_> at that time you would of told me edgy and i woulda said huh
[06:13] <toulouse> sum0: i'll try a restart, and if that doesnt work, it's another day's problem, i have to go to bed now
[06:13] <sum0> toulouse: are you running gaim?
[06:13] <Wo|f> bionic_seahorse, yeah
[06:13] <toulouse> nope
[06:13] <eV_64> can someone recommend an identd daemon?
[06:13] <Joshooa> I need help with a hard drive problem, it keeps freezing my computer.  I'm pretty sure it's a hard drive problem cause I deleted /media/hdb - hdb3, which I made earlier trying to mount it all, and now it randomly freezes and I can see fsck in the beginning, and it checks hda ok and then never checks hdb but hangs for a bit and then loads, if it loads at all

[06:17] <ant_> i found out a way to boot to console :)
[06:17] <omeil> Wow i hate kubuntu desktop :D
[06:17] <bionic_seahorse> wolf: lemme check it out brb
[06:17] <Wo|f> bionic_seahorse, assuming you installed fglrx-control, that should work
[06:17] <eV_64> tunganet: cd '/media/winxp/Program Files' worked for me
[06:18] <logic_girl> i don't like kubuntu but i LOVE ubuntu =] 
[06:18] <Wo|f> bionic_seahorse, OK
[06:18] <mjbrooks> ant_: what do you think of that for an idea?
[06:18] <tunganet> ev_64 my directory is in wine
[06:18] <eV_64> oo
[06:18] <locke> does/can anyone play lightside-legend ragnarok?
[06:18] <Wo|f> logic_girl, You and me both :)
[06:18] <omeil> logic_girl: yup yup same. i instlaled the kubuntu desktop and i hated every lil bit of it.
[06:18] <roler> i heard about alienware
[06:18] <eV_64> cd ~/.wine
[06:18] <roler> thanks
[06:18] <eV_64> is that it?
[06:18] <ant_> mjbrooks : i think you should throw the halves across the room like a frisby
[06:19] <Wo|f> <- Not a KDE "person"
[06:19] <punsad> How well will Ubuntu run on my thinkpad570e PIII 500MHz, 392MB RAM?  Can I expect it to be as quick as Windows in regards to surfing the web?
[06:19] <tunganet> eV_64: then i need to get into program files
[06:19] <tunganet> ev_64 which has a space in it
[06:19] <ant_> <- not a kde person
[06:19] <ed1t> which drivers for Intel 2915ABG wireless card?
[06:19] <mjbrooks> ant_: well  since it's already halved it should spead across the foor nicely
[06:19] <eV_64> you know it's case sensitive, right?
[06:19] <omeil> Whats Xubuntu like?
[06:19] <punsad> Or should I just run DSL, Puppy or something like that?
[06:19] <tunganet> eV_64: k let me try
[06:19] <mjbrooks> omeil: fast
[06:19] <eV_64> tunganet: ls to list files, type the first part of the word Program ie Prog then hit tab
[06:20] <omeil> mjbrooks: so its a light version of Ubuntu?
[06:20] <roler> oh, alienware is dell...
[06:20] <eV_64> tunganet: you're using cd ....... right?
[06:20] <mjbrooks> omeil: because it lacks all the overhead eyecandy
[06:20] <Wo|f> omeil, I kind of dug it. I ran it on an older 900 mHz ThinkPad for awhile
[06:20] <tunganet> eV_64: yes
[06:20] <warkro> anyone know how to edit the tap zones in the synaptics touchpad
[06:21] <tunganet> ev_ok i got it
[06:21] <tunganet> eV_64: ok i got it
[06:21] <mjbrooks> omeil: Gnome and KDE need more resources
[06:21] <omeil> ah yea :), i think i will stick with gnomey :D,say is planeshift any good?
[06:21] <Wo|f> bionic_seahorse, Any luck?
[06:21] <khaoshizon> hi, im running beryl and when i ran gnome-settings-daemon &, there was an alert whether i should use X or gnome settings. i clicked dont warn me again but accidentally clicked gnome settings instead of X. can anyone tell me how I could edit it to use X?
[06:22] <eV_64> tunganet: ok good, you can run nautilus as root, there's a link somewhere
[06:22] <mjbrooks> ant_: I'm just tickled by the idea of swearing at microsoft before smashing it in a busy venue
[06:22] <eV_64> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy
[06:22] <Wo|f> mjbrooks, Do it!
[06:22] <omeil> eV_64: nautilus as root is gksu nautilus
[06:22] <Joshooa> Can someone help me with this GParted error? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11147/
[06:22] <mjbrooks> Wo|f: I"m plan to, gotta get a replacement first :/
[06:22] <eV_64> tunganet: nautilus as in your file browser in ubuntu
[06:22] <eV_64> i'm a noob too
[06:23] <tunganet> haha
[06:23] <khaoshizon> or at least for it to show the error message again?
[06:23] <eV_64> tunganet: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_browse_files.2Ffolders_as_root_user_in_Nautilus
[06:23] <bionic_seahorse> wolf: you getting my PM's?
[06:24] <omeil> tunganet: just type gksu nautilus in terminal
[06:24] <eV_64> you can do that and you get an option to have root access while browsing files, be careful though!
[06:24] <Wo|f> bionic_seahorse, Looks like /msg is disabled
[06:24] <Wo|f> :(
[06:24] <locke> khaoshizon: could you reinstall it?
[06:24] <ant_> i was still using enlightenment up until about a week ago
[06:24] <ant_> mjbrooks : still want to boot to console?
[06:24] <bionic_seahorse> aw crap :)
[06:24] <Wo|f> yeah
[06:24] <mjbrooks> until then literally have a cookie (in a wrapper mind you) holding my video cable down so the monitor doean't go all wonky
[06:24] <Wo|f> heh
[06:24] <eV_64> omeil: thanks, helps me too
[06:24] <omeil> hehe
[06:24] <eV_64> tunganet: also, you can type the first part of someone's username and hit tab to complete it, i noticed you misspelled mine
[06:24] <Chetwin> I can't get any help in the wine channel, anyone have any suggestions?
[06:24] <mjbrooks> ant_: I never wanted to boot to console, that was the other guy   ;)
[06:25] <ant_> mjbrooks : you need some good ole duct tape...
[06:25] <sum0> Chetwin: what's the issue?
[06:25] <tunganet> eV_64: yup sorry =] 
[06:25] <khaoshizon> locke: i dont think that'll help since i screwed the option of gnome-settings-daemon, not beryl :/
[06:25] <eV_64> tunganet: no prob
[06:25] <Chetwin> I'm getting Render Creation Failure when I try to run a game
[06:25] <omeil> eV_64, didn't know that :D
[06:25] <Chetwin> I've been google-ing for hours
[06:25] <sum0> Chetwin: which game?
[06:25] <Chetwin> Bridge Commander
[06:25] <Chetwin> The wine database says it works fine
[06:25] <Chetwin> Only one other entry in the forum had this issue, never resolved
[06:26] <omeil> Did wine just release another update?
[06:26] <Chetwin> I copied the dir from my windows part
[06:26] <mjbrooks> ant_: any system recommendations? I'm open to thoughts
[06:26] <locke> lightside-legend ragnarok won't run in wine ;[
[06:26] <bionic_seahorse> wolf: ok... lemme summarize then...
[06:26] <bionic_seahorse> i've got a CRT on my left & an LCD on my right. i want to have two different resolutions (1280x1024 + 1680x1050), but all i'm getting right now is a cloned display, both with 1680x1050 resolutions
[06:26] <eV_64> the drag and drop in terminal helped me a lot at first, but i dont use it as much anymore
[06:26] <mjbrooks> ant_: or even unrecommendations
[06:26] <bionic_seahorse> needless to say, the CRT looks like ass at the moment
[06:27] <omeil> lol i got bug guts on my monitor :D
[06:27] <ant_> mjbrooks : imo dont get a laptop with ati video, go nvidia, and no broadcom wireless.
[06:27] <Chetwin> mjbrooks: I gave a 6 month old laptop to my lil bro cuz it was ati and broadcom
[06:27] <mjbrooks> ant_: on my list
[06:27] <Wo|f> bionic_seahorse, Gotcha. Give me a sec
[06:27] <Chetwin> mjbrooks: I bought a dell with nvidia and intel wireless works great
[06:28] <khaoshizon>  WARNING **: The system configuration changed - but we remain silent

[06:28] <bionic_seahorse> wolf: sure thing... thx
[06:28] <eV_64> anyone have the link to the official guide for fglrx on edgy?, not the cchtml.com one

[06:29] <ant_> mjbrooks : but for sure stay away from broadcom

[06:29] <Chetwin> It rocks, if I could just get all my games to work
[06:29] <Chetwin> ARG
[06:29] <omeil> considering its dell selling the products :D much better than the crappy inteli cards
[06:29] <Chetwin> I even tried crossover office, no luck

[06:30] <Wo|f> bionic_seahorse, You have fglrx-control installed, right/
[06:30] <warkro> anyone else know how to edit tap zones for synaptics
[06:30] <bionic_seahorse> wolf: yup
[06:30] <Wo|f> OK
[06:30] <Chetwin> I know, but that's ghetto.
[06:30] <Chetwin> Thanks guys, I'm gonna keep trying
[06:30] <Wo|f> bear with me, cause I'm just going from the info in my shell after you just put in aticonfig
[06:30] <mjbrooks> ant_: It anoys me that they never tell you when the chip is broadcom  you have to hunt for that info
[06:30] <lion_> Anyone knows how to install Oracle 10g Enterprise Edition on Ubuntu Edgy
[06:31] <eV_64> bionic_seahorse: I think i found it, but thanks! https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[06:31] <Wo|f> bionic_seahorse, I'd do this first aticonfig --dtop=horizontal --overlay-on=1
[06:31] <Wo|f> That should take care of the cloning problem
[06:31] <omeil> Openoffice kinda sucks :(
[06:31] <eV_64> omeil: it takes a bit of getting used to
[06:31] <mjbrooks> ant_: I'm using a Belkin wireless card right now... beleive me, I know the ppain of Broadcom... thank God for ndiswrappers
[06:31] <sum0> lion_: tried this? http://www.supinfo-projects.com/en/2006/oracle_on_ubuntu/

[06:32] <mjbrooks> ant_: and BTW _NEVER_ buy Belkin

[06:32] <Wo|f> bionic_seahorse, Now this is just a guess
[06:32] <eV_64> bionic_seahorse: it was hard to find because fglrx is nowhere in the url or title
[06:33] <ant_> i want a prism or a atheros
[06:33] <lion_> thanks, I'll try it
[06:33] <lion_> it
[06:33] <Wo|f> bionic_seahorse,  aticonfig --resolution=1, (then the resolutions for the secondary display comma delimited)
[06:33] <eV_64> back to messing with mythtv
[06:33] <ant_> prism supports packet injection in monitor mode ;] 
[06:33] <Wo|f> bionic_seahorse, Failing that, go into /etc/X11/xorg.conf and manually edit the resolutions ^_^
[06:33] <dustin> does anybody know where I can find a Hardware compatibility list for ubuntu systems
[06:34] <bionic_seahorse> wolf: been there, done that (about 100 times so far ;)
[06:34] <omeil> Damn that locate terminal command is handy :D
[06:34] <lion_> Ubuntu specified?
[06:34] <lion_> I think the hardware compatibility list should be first found in kernel-dev websites

[06:34] <bionic_seahorse> wolf: does it matter if i'm not getting direct rendering at the moment? should i get that fixed up before i try aticonfig?
[06:34] <Wo|f> bionic_seahorse, I got lucky that the system I have the dual head on has two identical LCD's
[06:34] <bhavi_bond> if i give gpg clearsign its tellling that code of conduct texe not found
[06:35] <eV_64> ha yup
[06:35] <ant_> omeil : you know to run updatedb before locate?
[06:35] <Wo|f> bionic_seahorse, DRI is a bit beyond my ken
[06:35] <Joshooa> whew that was close
[06:35] <eV_64> where's a list of the bot commands?
[06:35] <bhavi_bond> pls help
[06:35] <edited> can somebody help me install Intel 2915ABG wireless card?

[06:35] <Joshooa> !anything
[06:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about anything - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:35] <Joshooa> ;)
[06:35] <bionic_seahorse> wolf: ya know what? i was leaning more towards two LCD's myself, but since I do a lot of design work, it helps to have one of each for color comparison, etc
[06:35] <ant_> omeil : update database i think, after installing/removing stuff
[06:36] <omeil> locate in terminal is to find a file yes?
[06:36] <bhavi_bond> hello
[06:36] <ant_> yes
[06:36] <sum0> omeil: yes, but not always current, to update the list run sudo updatedb
[06:36] <omeil> So i should update database?
[06:36] <ant_> omeil : just run sudo updatedb first, so locate is 'updated'
[06:36] <Wo|f> bionic_seahorse, I just pretty much do an install of the xorg-xserver-ati drivers and then fglrx-control and then run aticonfig with the changes I need to make when I set up a video card
[06:36] <omeil> oh okj
[06:36] <bhavi_bond> any answers pls its urgent
[06:36] <mytrueher1> is there any way to see a list of all mounted disks, and what directories they're mounted to?
[06:36] <Wo|f> bionic_seahorse, I gotcha. makes sense
[06:37] <lion_> what question?
[06:37] <omeil> Say has anyone installed starcraft and been capable of changing the Bnet server to a PVPGN server?
[06:37] <bionic_seahorse> wolf: which ATI card do you have installed? I've got an X1800XT, BTW
[06:37] <edited> can anybody help me install Intel 2915ABG wireless card?
[06:37] <lion_> StartCraft in Wine?
[06:38] <eV_64> http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi cool
[06:38] <eV_64> lion_: you're better off in the wine channel

[06:39] <edited> ant_,  i tried that it doesnt work
[06:39] <bionic_seahorse> your card model gives me hope that i'll eventually get this piece of &^&*^ to work like i want it to

[06:40] <Wo|f> I'd be happy if I could figure out the issue I came in with. Heh.
[06:40] <Wo|f> What file would I edit to get the screen resolution for the login screen fixed? I installed fglrx-control and rebooted after. Now I can't see the bottom of the login page where the buttons and the hostname and time and date are

[06:40] <bhavi_bond> hello
[06:40] <Wo|f> I've been poking around in the system menu
[06:40] <omeil> IS there any good Direct connect clients?
[06:40] <sum0> Wo|f: lookin your xorg.conf for "virtual" and disable
[06:40] <omeil> dcgui kinda sucks
[06:40] <Wo|f> sum0, Gracias!
[06:40] <bionic_seahorse> wolf: what kind of dual-head setup do you have? is it mergedfb? xinerama? dual viewports?
[06:41] <edited> ant_,  how do i check if my wireless card is installed right?
[06:41] <ant_> iwconfig
[06:41] <bionic_seahorse> wolf: you're in luck... i just got that fixed a couple of hours ago

[06:42] <Wo|f> Ademan, check out Google and do a search for Ubuntu restricted as well
[06:42] <mjbrooks> bhavi_bond: your having a problem with gpg?
[06:43] <ant_> edited : it'll come with a README/INSTALL most likely.. like i said, mine worked out of the box
[06:43] <Ademan> Wo|f: yeah thanks, its actually just one dvd in particular that refuses to play, i'm not holding out too much hope, but i'm thinking maybe dma would hel
[06:43] <Ademan> help*
[06:43] <ded_> is there a way to speed up the ubuntu boot?
[06:43] <Ademan> !dma
[06:43] <ubotu> dma is Direct Memory Access/Addressing. It makes hard disks & optical drives transfer data faster, and is almost always enabled in Ubuntu 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DMA
[06:43] <locke> ubuntu boots quick for me o0;
[06:43] <Wo|f> Ademan, DMA is good ^_^
[06:43] <eV_64> uh oh, it's 6.10
[06:43] <ant_> edited : and i am not sure that the 2915 uses the same driver, but i recall reading that somewhere
[06:43] <ded_> i'm using fairly old hw
[06:43] <eV_64> unless it thinks we all use the lts
[06:44] <Joshooa> ded_: Google it, there's guides and can tell you things you can turn off
[06:44] <ardchoille> Ademan: That happened to me once, so I put that dvd into my set top box and it wouldn't play there either. Will this dvd play in a set top dvd player?
[06:44] <eV_64> feisty soon!!! :)
[06:44] <bhavi_bond> yes if i give gpg clearsign its saying that code of conduct no file exists i have downloaded it to my desktop

[06:44] <Ademan> ardchoille: it plays in my xbox, so i assume so, my set top box is broken actually
[06:45] <ardchoille> Ademan: Ah, ok. Just thinking it may be corrupted like mine was.
[06:45] <mjbrooks> code of conduct is the file?
[06:45] <Joshooa> ded_: NP hope it helps, I just loooked some up the other day

[06:45] <Ademan> that would be nice :-)

[06:46] <warlock> Does anyone know how to upgrade a specefic thing (such as gzip) and nothing else?
[06:47] <LordValuemart> Because I got it for free from a coworker
[06:47] <sum0> warlock: sudo aptitude upgrade gzip
[06:47] <Ademan> warlock: in synaptic you could just mark gzip for the upgrade.... i'm sure apt-get has something like that, check out man apt-get
[06:47] <warlock> well
[06:47] <warlock> sum0, can you join #warlock.blabla for a second?
[06:47] <GenNMX> warlock: sudo apt-get install gzip

[06:48] <mjbrooks> bhavi_bond: you must have missed my question    "code of conduct" is the file?

[06:50] <Ademan> i dunno, if the money went to canonical i'd probably do it
[06:50] <Ademan> you know, pay 10 bucks for a cd or something...

[06:52] <somatt> can anyone help me

[06:55] <chuck`_> could one of you recommend an IRC client besides ircII/bitchx?  or at least a good GUI/frontend to the aforementioned clients?  i'd really like something that looks/feels a lot like mIRC, basically

[07:00] <Ademan> ahave: correct, it will be released in april, but generally upgrading can be a royal pain in the butt
[07:00] <Ademan> i upgraded from dapper to edgy, everything got messed up
[07:00] <Ademan> some people have good experiences
[07:00] <Ademan> i didnt...
[07:00] <Ademan> and i know other people had similar troubles
[07:00] <bionic_seahorse> i certainly did
[07:00] <ahave> Ademan, so when the time does come to bump to 7.04... it will be a pain? or will the updater take care of it

[07:01] <laac> quit
[07:01] <Daemonik> My friend wants to print over his LAN. The printer is hooked up to a Mac. Do Macs have their own printer sharing dealy going or is that stuff Samba. It if is Samba, how's he go about doing this?
[07:01] <Ademan> ahave: depends if you're lucky or not :-)   mine took care of it, but it left a huge mess
[07:02] <mjbrooks> bhavi_bond: save the file to your home directory, it's easier to find that way. Different window managers use different paths for their desktop

[07:03] <linuxn00b> A password and a login
[07:03] <bhavi_bond> same command?
[07:03] <mjbrooks> bhavi_bond: then you can just do a 'gpg --clearsign ~/ubuntu\ code\ of\ conduct'
[07:03] <Thinkpad_Guru> hey guys, I got an issue regarding dvd playback.  I've been at it for almost two months now.  I've tried installed libdvdcss2, vlc, ogle, and nothing will seem to play a dvd.  VLC just crashes when I select to open a dvd, and xine keeps telling me it can't decrypt the stream.  Anyone know what gives?
[07:03] <Ademan> how do i figure out which drive is my dvd drive?
[07:03] <Ademan> Thinkpad_Guru: have you tried another dvd?
[07:04] <bionic_seahorse> linuxn00b: isn't it l:ubuntu P:[blank] ?
[07:04] <Thinkpad_Guru> Ademan,  maybe one or two short of a dozen

[07:04] <Ademan> Thinkpad_Guru: ouch, hrm, have you tried mplayer?
[07:04] <bhavi_bond> Same thiong

[07:04] <bhavi_bond> same thing
[07:04] <Jabberman> A timed task
[07:04] <Ademan> Thinkpad_Guru: i'm not really one to talk, i've got a dvd i can't play (but admittedly everything else works)
[07:05] <bhavi_bond> Shall i remove seahorse?
[07:05] <linuxn00b> bionic_seahorse That would be news to me.  In the install it asks for a user name and PW.
[07:05] <Ademan> Thinkpad_Guru: do you have all of the gstreamer codecs including ffmpeg and the ugly codecs?
[07:05] <Thinkpad_Guru> Ademan, same here, everything else is peachy
[07:05] <Paddy_EIRE> Hey guys could someone please help me get the Super/windows key working in ubuntu, I have the proper keyboard layout selected (uk, qwerty) although the key seems to do nothing?

[07:05] <Thinkpad_Guru> Ademan, ugly, multiverse, bad, everything
[07:06] <mjbrooks> bhavi_bond: your using seahorse?
[07:06] <Ademan> Thinkpad_Guru: geeze, i dunno what to tell you, i think there's a libdvdread3  but i think libdvdcss2 depends on it so you should have it
[07:06] <bhavi_bond> yes
[07:06] <Thinkpad_Guru> Ademan, before someone asks, yes it has a dvd-rom :)
[07:06] <mjbrooks> bhavi_bond: you failed to mention that   lol

[07:11] <linuxn00b> ant_ : Actually, every time I use this install cd I have this problem. Even if I write it down and then explicity retype.  Says wrong user or PW.
[07:11] <ant_> linuxn00b : do you realize that linux is case sensitive?
[07:11] <linuxn00b> ant_ : Anyway to recover it as root (like from recovery mode?  which I'm logged into now).
[07:11] <anggarda> anyone? how do I recover from a suspend in ubuntu?
[07:11] <bhavi_bond> same thing Its ubuntyucode of conduct-1.01.txt
[07:11] <linuxn00b> ant_: I'm aware. ;)
[07:12] <bhavi_bond> ubuntu
[07:12] <PurpZeY> Once I install a package via add/remove, how can I actually run it, one of them appeared in my "applications" menu but another didn't...
[07:12] <mjbrooks> bhavi_bond: then that make a big difference
[07:12] <mjbrooks> bhavi_bond: type
[07:12] <ant_> linuxn00b : as far as i'm aware, no.. once you lose your pw you just cant login
[07:12] <GenNMX> anggarda: Have you tried hitting the spacebar on your keyboard? Or quickly hitting the power button?
[07:12] <mjbrooks> bhavi_bond: gpg --clearsign ~/ubuntucode\ of\ conduct-1.01.txt
[07:13] <linuxn00b> ant_: Then, since it's just a router I'll log as root.  and set a really decent pw.
[07:13] <ant_> linuxn00b : are you trying to login as root?
[07:13] <mjbrooks> bhavi_bond: in other words    gpg --clearsign ~/NAMEOFILEHERE
[07:13] <ant_> linuxn00b : root is disabled by default in ubuntu
[07:14] <linuxn00b> ant_: No, I -am- logged in as root from recovery mode.  I was trying to find my user name and such from shadow or passwd files.
[07:14] <mjbrooks> bhavi_bond: it can't find the file if you give it the wrong name
[07:15] <linuxn00b> ant_: But because reinstalling always leaves me with the same exact issues (cd defect?), I'll just enable root outside of recovery and use that.  It's a box I'm building into a router.
[07:15] <goofey> X won't start because it can't load (find) /lib/modules/2.6.17-11-386/volatile/nvidia.ko and I'm using the new legacy nvidia drivers - any ideas?
[07:15] <PurpZeY> How can I launch Wine once I install the package?
[07:15] <ant_> linuxn00b : have you checked the checksum of the cd?
[07:16] <Whebeft-bed> does ubuntu support ASUS P5SD2-X  the SIS656 Chipset
[07:16] <bhavi_bond> done..  now?
[07:16] <goofey> any way to find out which package is supposed to provide nvidia.ko?
[07:16] <linuxn00b> ant_: No, I haven't
[07:16] <GigaClon> whats the format command?
[07:17] <ant_> linuxn00b : are you using a livecd?
[07:17] <XP> goofey: nvidia-glx
[07:17] <mjbrooks> PurpZeY: wine PATHTOPROGRAM
[07:17] <mjbrooks> bhavi_bond: you run that?
[07:17] <javacoder> are there any problems with upgrading to Edgy lately?
[07:17] <linuxn00b> ant_: No, alt_install cd.
[07:17] <bhavi_bond> yes
[07:17] <goofey> XP: ok - but I reinstalled nvidia-glx-legacy....
[07:18] <mjbrooks> bhavi_bond: no error?
[07:18] <XP> goofey: what card do u have?
[07:18] <chuck`_> who recommended jIRCii to me before? mneptok I believe?
[07:18] <javacoder> gaim chuck`_
[07:18] <goofey> XP: geforce 4 420 go
[07:18] <linuxn00b> Is there a way to tell Ubuntu to -never- run xserver unless explicitly asked to do so?
[07:19] <goofey> linuxn00b: you could remove it form the default runlevel
[07:19] <Elive_user92> hey which one is better: gnome BAKER or BRASERO ?
[07:19] <goofey> linuxn00b: er, from
[07:19] <mjbrooks> bhavi_bond: If it didn't complain then it should be signed
[07:19] <XP> goodkiwiboy: yeah, i think u need the legacy driver?
[07:19] <bhavi_bond> done thanks again
[07:19] <mjbrooks> bhavi_bond: no problem
[07:20] <Pollywog> linuxn00b: I have done that by removing the startup links
[07:20] <bhavi_bond> How can i contribute packages?
[07:20] <ant_> linuxn00b : sudo update-rc.d gdm -f remove to keep x from starting
[07:20] <linuxn00b> goofey: I'd still be able to start it up when I wanted it though?
[07:20] <Pollywog> what ant said
[07:20] <bionic_seahorse> anybody with an ATI dual-head setup have some free time on their hands? Trying to get a resolution-independent setup going... I'm close to getting it fixed too... I can feel it!
[07:20] <GigaClon> can mkfs be used to format a miniSD card to FAT16?
[07:20] <PurpZeY> Where does LiveCD Store data, e.g. installed programs, and preferences?
[07:20] <ant_> linuxn00b : sudo update-rc.d gdm -f remove
[07:20] <bionic_seahorse> of course i said that same thing 2 days ago... :)
[07:20] <goodkiwiboy> xp ?
[07:20] <goofey> linuxn00b: yep
[07:21] <XP> goodkiwiboy: wrong person sorry
[07:21] <XP> that was mean for goofey
[07:21] <XP> lol
[07:21] <ardchoille> PurpZeY: The things you change in a livecd are held in ram
[07:21] <XP> i didn't notice i made that mistake
[07:21] <goodkiwiboy> hehe no worries
[07:21] <PurpZeY> ardchoille: so they will clear when I reboot?
[07:21] <ardchoille> PurpZeY: yep
[07:21] <Pollywog> linuxn00b you could start it with /etc/init.d/gdm start
[07:21] <bhavi_bond> How can i contribute packages?
[07:21] <Pollywog> but gdm would not start on boot
[07:21] <Elive_user92> u suck people
[07:22] <ardchoille> bhavi_bond: Try asking in #ubuntu-motu
[07:22] <goofey> XP: pretty sure the card requires legacy if i go 1.0.97
[07:22] <XP> yeah
[07:22] <XP> it does
[07:22] <Elive_user92> fuckin ubuntu boys !!
[07:22] <XP> so you're correct

[07:33] <ant_> mjbrooks : i think the time of attack would be the most important
[07:33] <mjbrooks> ant_: definately
[07:34] <mjbrooks> ant_: a nice busy afternoon round lunch time in the city
[07:34] <mjbrooks> ant_:  what do you think... financial district best?
[07:35] <ant_> mjbrooks : i think so
[07:35] <mjbrooks> ant_: heheh   this is gonna rock

[07:38] <mtar> would be nice if youtube didn't suck for reading text

[07:40] <mjbrooks> ant_:  UAC     bwahahahaha
[07:41] <laptop> how can i add a keyboard that is french;;;  and   how can i add an lcd monitor to my laptop
[07:41] <Khaos> the thing is, i had beryl running and i ran gnone-settings-daemon & a message appeared and told me that my X is different and prompted me to use either the new X or Gnome settings. it ran well with X so i configured it to poen on startup. when i was in the same message again and ticked "Don't show this again" but accidentally misclicked Gnome so now i just need to get that warning message to work again
[07:41] <laptop> dual monitor
[07:42] <laptop> ??

[07:46] <detectiveinspekt> Java crashed firefox as my report was due
[07:46] <|Amon|> 777?

[07:47] <detectiveinspekt> |Amon|, if you want
[07:47] <|Amon|> yes
[07:47] <|Amon|> mjbrooks,
[07:47] <mjbrooks> then that's fine
[07:47] <javacoder> not much to choose from here

[07:47] <Naomarik> anyone know if there's a console based audio control ?
[07:47] <rm_you> alsamixer?
[07:47] <Naomarik> ahhha!
[07:48] <ant_> its a good one at that.
[07:48] <Naomarik> ok but it uses an ncurses gui... is there something i can use a script to pass a command to?
[07:49] <|Amon|> i installed software firewalls on my nix dedicated servers before but should i have as software firewall even tho im behind a hardware one for ubuntu or no?
[07:49] <Naomarik> i'm trying to get my FN keys to work and would be nice if i can have like one key press lower audio by 10% or so
[07:49] <rm_you> Naomarik: install alsa-tools and then use alsactrl
[07:49] <rm_you> that
[07:49] <Naomarik> alright
[07:49] <rm_you> that's what you want
[07:50] <rm_you> err, alsactl

[07:50] <ant_> |Amon| : firestarter
[07:50] <chuck`_> why can't I create a launcher on my desktop to execute a .jar archive?  when I double-click the launcher, it doesn't do anything besides sit idly.  but when I execute the archive in terminal, it works fine.
[07:50] <Flannel> !firestarter | |Amon|
[07:50] <ubotu> |Amon|: 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).
[07:50] <rm_you> still in the alsa-tools package tho
[07:50] <|Amon|> heh ya
[07:50] <Naomarik> i'll try what rm_you said
[07:51] <Paddy_EIRE> could someone help me create a .deb out of this package http://qflash.sourceforge.net/webpage/

[07:54] <|Amon|> billy, how's the weather
[07:54] <technomancy> gah... freaking useless
[07:54] <javacoder> right, you need to go to a terminal and type chmod 755 **.sh

[07:56] <rickyfingers> beyrl is very cool, but let me correct some misinformation I got in this room last night
[07:56] <jawzor> do a beryl roll
[07:57] <Naomarik> hah
[07:57] <rickyfingers> somebody told me that beyrl worked fine with two monitors
[07:57] <billy> rickyfingers: do tell ..
[07:57] <javacoder> chuck`_:  you have to make it executable with chmod 755 **.sh
[07:57] <ant_> from what i hear it barely works with one.
[07:57] <rickyfingers> that is absolutely not true, I'm not angry about it or anything, I just think people should know
[07:57] <mjbrooks> rickyfingers: it does as long as you have a nuclear reactor to power your video cards
[07:57] <chuck`_> javacoder: aye i always forget to change modes
[07:58] <SilentDis> rickyfingers: yeah... while possible, so long as both vid cards support it... it's really a pain to setup from my understanding.
[07:58] <rickyfingers> LOL it doesn't work at all with xinerama, and it kind of works with twinview
[07:58] <javacoder> chuck`_:  used to making .bat files?

[07:59] <rickyfingers> I have a dual monitor setup that I've been using for months, and I may do some research for getting beryl working with both...anyone here got it working for real?
[07:59] <billy> freeblizz12134: how do you like it so far?
[07:59] <ant_> why in the world does everyone go through all that trouble, what does beryl that is so great?
[07:59] <freeblizz12134> very much
[07:59] <ant_> ^do
[07:59] <freeblizz12134> is nice

[07:59] <freeblizz12134> k
[07:59] <chuck`_> javacoder: It's still not executing the jar file as far as i can tell. clearly the script is performing some sort of work for a few files, but the GUI program i'm trying to run in the jar archive isn't showing
[07:59] <rickyfingers> ant_: I haven't used mac OSX in a while, but it has a lot of the same kind of gee whiz affects that OSX had when I used it last
[07:59] <chuck`_> files=cycles
[07:59] <billy> freeblizz12134: that's awesome.  did you make the switch from 'doze?
[07:59] <chuck`_> I can't type tonight
[08:00] <rickyfingers> ant_: the kind of stuff that you can show your friends and they'll be like, "...wow it's the computer of the future..."
[08:00] <mjbrooks> SilentDis: and gove your MS Taxed copy of windows to your enemies?  lol
[08:00] <SilentDis> ant_: beryl is pretty fluff.  while the cube is semi useful for multi desktop switching, it's just pretty pretty :)
[08:00] <freeblizz12134> sory
[08:00] <rickyfingers> ant_: at least those friends of yours that would be impressed by stuff like eye-candy anyway.
[08:00] <|Amon|> rickyfingers, you can actually run osx on non-apple intel hardware now
[08:00] <freeblizz12134> what is doze ?
[08:00] <billy> win doze
[08:00] <|Amon|> someone patched osx so that it would run on machines without the apple specific bios...
[08:00] <freeblizz12134> aa
[08:01] <freeblizz12134> :)
[08:01] <freeblizz12134> is
[08:01] <ant_> why not use another flashy wm
[08:01] <freeblizz12134> yes
[08:01] <SilentDis> mjbrooks: I wouldn't wish that bloat upon my enemies.  I prefer them semi coherent so they're more fun to argue with ;)
[08:01] <billy> |Amon|: i get a sick feeling when I go to snatch it.  terrible conscience over here.
[08:01] <|Amon|> your cpu has to be able to handle at least sse2 though and sse3 for roseta too
[08:01] <mjbrooks> use E
[08:01] <rickyfingers> |Amon|: that's cool and all, but to do this legally...one would still have to shell out $$$ for a copy of OSX and all the other apps one would want to run, right?
[08:01] <|Amon|> rickyfingers, it is legal
[08:01] <|Amon|> since it's based off darwin
[08:02] <|Amon|> but ya you would have to pay for osx
[08:02] <billy> rickyfingers: the Apple folks claim that ANY installation on a nonApple machine is a violation of the EULA.
[08:02] <|Amon|> billy, not true... they have some developers edition or something they sell
[08:02] <|Amon|> that runs on non-apple hw
[08:02] <|Amon|> but for the basic os prob right
[08:03] <billy> |Amon|: besides, the torrent was going to take like a day to download.  :-)
[08:03] <SilentDis> billy: and nintendo and sony claim that importing PS/gamecubes from japan to play japanese games is illegal too :)
[08:03] <|Amon|> billy, i dowloaded it in ~4 hrs
[08:04] <|Amon|> ;p
[08:04] <|Amon|> downloaded
[08:04] <billy> |Amon|: don't tell me that!
[08:04] <|Amon|> nothing illegal
[08:04] <|Amon|> i only use bittorrent to download open-source software.
[08:04] <|Amon|> ;] 
[08:05] <|Amon|> SilentDis, would they be happier if i downloaded ps2 roms from a bt tracker?
[08:05] <|Amon|> theyre not specifically coming from japan then ... ;] 
[08:05] <macd> this should prolly goto #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:05] <ant_> lol
[08:06] <SilentDis> |Amon|: my point, exactly, really.  and yes, I'll join offtopic myself to continue this :)
[08:06] <ant_> the whole last hour should've been in offtopic lol
[08:06] <rickyfingers> well everyone, I have to go get ready for work...this channel is bad for my work ethic!!!
[08:06] <macd> yeah just noone was looking ;)
[08:06] <billy> yeah, where the newbs with problems been?
[08:06] <macd> sleeping like good end users do at night.
[08:07] <mtar> what ide do you guys use to develop with
[08:07] <|Amon|> billy, i dont have a prob yet
[08:07] <billy> |Amon|: me neither.  :)
[08:07] <|Amon|> but you can tell me how to edit fstab so that my fat32 partition mounts when i boot into ubuntu.
[08:07] <|Amon|> ;p
[08:07] <mjbrooks> I hate it when I do that
[08:07] <giskardd> seems like my windoze wireless driver only works with ndiswrapper 1.13 to 1.24, i need a walkthrough on how to install ndiswrapper 1.24, with or without synaptic, because i can't access the web repositories
[08:08] <mjbrooks> |Amon|: where is your mount point?
[08:08] <|Amon|> /dev/hda4
[08:09] <|Amon|> and destination is /mnt/fat32
[08:09] <SilentDis> |Amon|: /dev/hda4 /mnt/fat32 vfat defaults,user,rw 0 0
[08:09] <|Amon|> thx
[08:10] <billy> |Amon|:  see?  all you had to do was ask.  :-)
[08:10] <SilentDis> |Amon|: it'll be available immediately, and should mount at next boot.  you can mount it NOW as a user with:  mount /mnt/fat32
[08:10] <rm_you> |Amon|: If you look in /etc/mtab it will show you what the line looks like for anything you have mounted.... so if you mount a filesystem how you want it and want to save it for your next reboot, just copy the line from /etc/mtab to /etc/fstab :P
[08:10] <|Amon|> damn nix is like riding a bicycle... was just trying to think of the name of the pgrm i ran that let me see all im running and top hit me
[08:10] <|Amon|> i didnt realize how much i missed linux
[08:10] <|Amon|> rm_you, thx
[08:11] <SilentDis> rm_you: thanks on that one myself.  learn something new every day :)
[08:11] <rm_you> :)
[08:11] <|Amon|> SilentDis, ya i was running mount /dev/hda4 /mnt/fat32 all the time which got annoyng...
[08:11] <SilentDis> }
[08:12] <|Amon|> kill -9 pid to kill a process right?
[08:12] <SeyToN> !wifi
[08:12] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[08:12] <SilentDis> |Amon|: heh, i have a netdrive that can't be mounted in fstab because of when it's driver loaded.  I used basically the same line, with a noauto option, and have a simple script called when kde loads to mount it for me :)
[08:12] <ant_> |Amon| : try a kill -15 for a less violent kill
[08:13] <|Amon|> eh
[08:13] <|Amon|> whats the diff
[08:13] <rm_you> but... kill -9 is so bloody and deliciously effective :P
[08:13] <Adlai> |Amon|: just try kill without a signal specified
[08:13] <Adlai> |Amon|: it gives the process a chance to clean up
[08:13] <|Amon|> ah okay
[08:14] <SilentDis> |Amon|: or, if you know the name rather than the PID, 'killall processname'
[08:14] <mjbrooks> personally I don't even bother looking in mtab, I just grep it for the device I want and pipe it to fstab
[08:14] <rm_you> generally when i'm at the point where i'm using kill to make a process die, nothing but 9 will do anything >_>
[08:14] <mjbrooks> rm_you: love 9!
[08:15] <SilentDis> !htop | |Amon| check this tool out, might be what you're looking for, for easy process management
[08:15] <ubotu> |amon| check this tool out, might be what you're looking for, for easy process management: htop: interactive processes viewer. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.6.2-1 (edgy), package size 42 kB, installed size 172 kB
[08:15] <rm_you> I also enjoy reaping orphans in my spare time :P
[08:16] <enderxim> Are there repos to get some newer apps than edgy or feisty have? Like sidux, or debian sid, etc?
[08:16] <SilentDis> !backports | enderxim
[08:16] <MaartenLx> Hmm.... anyone know why a background I chose earlier in KDE sticks and cannot be changed anymore? Whatever I try, it keeps showing the same wallpaper.... ;)
[08:16] <ubotu> enderxim: If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports
[08:16] <MaartenLx> Good thing its not an ugly one :P
[08:16] <|Amon|> mjbrooks, rw is read+write permissions right
[08:16] <enderxim> SilentDis: Thanks
[08:16] <mjbrooks> |Amon|: yes
[08:16] <|Amon|> k
[08:17] <ant_> i just noticed my shoes were still on, you guys are starting to get boring.
[08:17] <mjbrooks> ant_: bwahahaha
[08:17] <ant_> i'm about to have to sudo sleep -h now
[08:17] <SilentDis> ant_: my apologies.  I will go break something and come back asking for a fix. :D
[08:17] <|Amon|> ant_, : kill -9 an
[08:17] <|Amon|> ant_*
[08:17] <|Amon|> ;-\
[08:17] <ant_> lol
[08:17] <SilentDis> sudo make me a sandwich
[08:17] <mjbrooks> ant_: rm -rf /home/ant
[08:18] <Episcopus> i am trying to install beryl on a system with an nvidia card, but i am having trouble when i try to install the nvidia driver
[08:18] <|Amon|> how do u get the name of a proc from the pid
[08:18] <mjbrooks> ant_: there should be a beryl channel
[08:18] <Episcopus> can i get help here?
[08:19] <|Amon|> ack, i said 'u'
[08:19] <|Amon|> need to quit talking to my gf on aim
[08:19] <ant_> i thought there was.
[08:19] <bz0b> hey all
[08:19] <|Amon|> or is that possible?
[08:19] <Episcopus> found the beryl channel, thanks
[08:19] <mjbrooks> Episcopus: #nvidia might be a better place for nvidia specific problems
[08:19] <SilentDis> Episcopus: what version fo ubuntu?
[08:20] <Episcopus> edgy
[08:20] <SilentDis> !envy | Episcopus
[08:20] <ubotu> Episcopus: envy is a Python script that eases installation of the official Nvidia and ATI drivers. Please see http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html . Developers may be interested in https://launchpad.net/products/envy - See also !Nvidia
[08:20] <mkquist> hey anyone know if the alternate installer disk is any diff than the gui one? other that the interface?
[08:20] <pierc1> does anyone know if there is a repository somewhere that has stuff like hydra and metasploit etc?
[08:20] <SilentDis> Episcopus: envy just does it all for you :)
[08:20] <ant_> gotta love that envy
[08:20] <bz0b> hey do i get transparency in all of the windows like how you can choose it as an option in the terminal
[08:20] <mjbrooks> envy envy
[08:20] <Episcopus> SilentDis: i will check that out
[08:21] <SilentDis> mkquist: alternate CD requries a lot less resources to run, and provides only a text-based install, no 'try before installing'.
[08:21] <ant_> bz0b : gotta use aterm or eterm
[08:21] <mjbrooks> ant_: I enjoy it when I get the chance to tell someone to do a man man
[08:21] <bz0b> ant_, do i just apt get it?
[08:21] <SilentDis> ant_: it's truely a work of art imo :)
[08:21] <|Amon|> bz0b, not all programs support transparency
[08:21] <ant_> lol
[08:22] <giskardd> does ndiswrapper require any other dependencies to be installed?
[08:22] <bz0b> like for instance my home
[08:22] <mjbrooks> ant_: people get flustered
[08:22] <bz0b> nautilus
[08:22] <|Amon|> aterm -tr to make it transparent
[08:22] <billy> Is it normal for everybody and their brother to be hitting your Bittorrent port when you're not running a torrent program?
[08:22] <giskardd> i get dozens of errors with sudo make ndiswrapper
[08:22] <SilentDis> bz0b: beryl lets you make any/all windows transparent on the fly, or through specifying them.... is that what you're looking to do, or were you looking for something in metacity/kde directly?
[08:22] <mjbrooks> billy: were you recent;y running a torrent program?
[08:22] <mkquist> silentdis - is it any more effective say maybe on an older system?
[08:22] <billy> mjbrooks: yeah, yesterday.
[08:22] <mkquist> silendis - or just not as pretty...
[08:22] <bz0b> SilentDis, yes
[08:23] <bz0b> SilentDis, where can I find this program?
[08:23] <|Amon|> billy, no. wear protection
[08:23] <ant_> i wouldnt suggest beryl :X
[08:23] <SilentDis> billy: if you have a bittorrent client going before offering something, you might be caught in a meta cache.  it'll clear up in a while...  that's the only advice I have though
[08:23] <bz0b> ant_, what would you suggest?
[08:23] <billy> |Amon|: don't worry.  that port's stealthed now.
[08:23] <mjbrooks> billy: they might still think you are part of it
[08:23] <|Amon|> billy, invisible?
[08:23] <yeti> Hi there... anyone got an idea why won't commands run from my crontab?
[08:23] <|Amon|> :p
[08:23] <chuck`_> Anyone have any suggestions as to why I can't execute the command java -jar file.jar in a program launcher or a bash script? It works fine from a terminal window, but I don't want to keep the terminal window open just to keep this GUI program running, halp :<
[08:24] <billy> |Amon|: word.  no error packets returned.
[08:24] <ant_> beryl can be hard to get working is all
[08:24] <SilentDis> bz0b: were you looking for help/info on beryl?
[08:24] <bz0b> SilentDis, yes please
[08:24] <SilentDis> !beryl | bz0b
[08:24] <ubotu> bz0b: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[08:24] <billy> SilentDis: makes sense.  I was seeding the herd5 yesterday.
[08:24] <|Amon|> so is there *any* way to find out the name of a proc with just the PID?
[08:24] <SilentDis> mkquist: I used the alt-install cd for xubuntu on my laptop, it has all of 64mb ram, works great :)
[08:24] <ant_> ps gives both
[08:24] <mjbrooks> chuck`_: you might have to specify the full path to your java executable
[08:25] <pierc1> |Amon|:    ps aux | grep <pid>
[08:25] <SilentDis> |Amon|: if you have the PID... ps -A | grep -i <pid>
[08:25] <ant_> ps -e shows every process no?
[08:25] <|Amon|> pierc1, ah yea forgot that command...
[08:25] <mkquist> silendis - any probs w/the toolbars yet?
[08:26] <|Amon|> do nix commands come back if its been like 3 years since you've messed with it
[08:26] <|Amon|> i used to be not too bad with it...
[08:26] <SilentDis> mkquist: huh?
[08:26] <pierc1> like typing on a bicycle
[08:26] <|Amon|> hope so
[08:26] <chuck`_> mjbrooks: that worked, but the terminal window stays open. I tried putting & at the end of the line to run it in the background but then the terminal window opens then closes, and the Java executable never runs
[08:26] <mkquist> silentdis - youll see...hehe
[08:26] <SilentDis> pierc1: lol odd anaology :)
[08:27] <mkquist> silentdis - other than that xubuntu is great, nice and quick - i like the way the toolbars can be configured
[08:27] <MM2> How to find out bad sectors on HD and set ubuntu to ignore them?
[08:27] <SilentDis> mkquist: yeah.  breathed new life into my crappy little lappy :)
[08:28] <mjbrooks> chuck`_: the program lauched and the terminal stays open?
[08:28] <mkquist> silendis - just dont trip when if ur toolbars dissapear... easy fix
[08:28] <yeti> ardchoille: Are you here?
[08:28] <chuck`_> mjbrooks: correct
[08:28] <SilentDis> mkquist: lol.  P1 300MHz, 64mb ram, 3gb hard drive.  old Toshiba Satellite 2535CDS :)
[08:28] <chuck`_> mjbrooks: DOHHH... nevermind
[08:29] <mjbrooks> chuck`_: I think there should be a checkbox in the   ok
[08:29] <chuck`_> mjbrooks: of course it stays open when i click "run in terminal" instead of run :x
[08:29] <|Amon|> is there ever gonna be a port of photoshop to nix... its the only reason i still have a windows partition
[08:29] <|Amon|> and gimp's still not quite there
[08:29] <mjbrooks> chuck`_: you got it
[08:29] <chuck`_> mjbrooks: I got it, thanks :] 
[08:29] <mkquist> silentdis - p1??  wow, now that is old, but watch ur drive, itll fill up fast if ur not careful
[08:29] <SilentDis> |Amon|: from what I understand, Photoshop runs just fine with wine.... ;)
[08:29] <bz0b> SilentDis, this is the error i get when i attempt to install beryl
[08:29] <|Amon|> i dont want to emulate it
[08:30] <|Amon|> i was thinking about trying crossover...
[08:30] <SilentDis> mkquist: yeah.  I have a server running, and just made a user for the lappy there, and pointed /home to an nfs share lol
[08:30] <mkquist> silendis - good deal
[08:30] <chuck`_> mjbrooks: is there a flag or something that can be passed when executing a bash script to set the working directory to the path of the script?
[08:31] <Smegzor> I'm trying to rescue files off a dead Windows pc using the live ubuntu cd.  I have mounted the drive and connected to the remote windows share for my file server.  How do I copy the files?  Is there a better way?
[08:31] <anggarda> I'm about to download the ubuntu 6.10, whats the difference between the desktop edition and the server edition?
[08:31] <|Amon|> java 5 is the latest jvm right?
[08:31] <SilentDis> Smegzor: you can use built in graphical stuff, or just cp -ru /path/of/dead/drive/* /location/to/backup/to
[08:31] <giskardd> dammit, i'm tired of wrestling with ndiswrapper
[08:32] <ant_> java 6
[08:32] <SilentDis> !java | |Amon|
[08:32] <mjbrooks> chuck`_: you just want to change to it or prevent the script from seeing above it?
[08:32] <ubotu> |Amon|: 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
[08:32] <Smegzor> thanks
[08:32] <woz> hola a todos
[08:32] <chuck`_> chuck`_: just to change it so I can avoid having to specify full paths for things I'll be executing, java archives or otherwise

[08:32] <mjbrooks> chuck`_: just cd to it
[08:32] <billy> anggarda: the server edition is for computers that will act as servers.  if you're not going to have your computer behave as a server, then you need the desktop, or the alternate.

[08:33] <anggarda> billy, are there any difference in packages?
[08:33] <ubotu> If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports
[08:33] <chuck`_> Yeah I suppose that would work
[08:33] <chuck`_> heh
[08:33] <manopulus> !backports

[08:34] <anggarda> ant_, mkquist, thank you.
[08:34] <woz> hi all
[08:34] <rm_you> hi :)
[08:34] <SilentDis> |Amon|: that's what turned me off of redhat so long ago.  I've never met a community so welcome and inviting as the Ubuntu community :)
[08:34] <billy> |Amon|: elitist attitudes stem from insecurities.
[08:34] <rm_you> We're like a small army!
[08:34] <rm_you> A... Errr... Warm, fuzzy army! :P
[08:35] <SilentDis> rm_you: fuzzy penguins? O.o
[08:35] <rm_you> :P
[08:35] <rm_you> I maintain my position about the fuzz. >_<
[08:35] <billy> i get paranoid when my firewall  stops getting hits.
[08:36] <ant_> lol
[08:36] <billy> :0
[08:36] <rm_you> Happy Feet did wonders for the fuzzy plush penguin market :P
[08:36] <mjbrooks> lol
[08:36] <rm_you> I even managed to get some penguin pajama pants and penguin slippers :)
[08:37] <linuxn00b2> I once was refered to a website that builds a repository list for you.  Sound familiar to anyone?
[08:37] <|Amon|> rm_you, too bad i dont plan on seeing it

[08:38] <mjbrooks> fuzzy penguins on the other hand
[08:38] <mjbrooks> lol
[08:38] <|Amon|> what about penguin blow up dolls... has to be a market for that
[08:38] <|Amon|> somewhere
[08:38] <rm_you> O_O

[08:38] <|Amon|> pffpt
[08:38] <ant_> lol
[08:39] <ant_> like a charm
[08:39] <ardchoille> This is a support channel. Please take the off-topic chatter to another channel.
[08:39] <stingman> :P
[08:39] <billy> sorry ardchoille
[08:39] <Dabian> ardchoille : I didn't say nothing.
[08:39] <mjbrooks> hahahaha
[08:39] <Dabian> (YET)
[08:39] <rm_you> sorry ardchoille, I'll go to sleep now and not bother you any more :)
[08:39] <|Amon|> me too
[08:40] <Dabian> I don't know if this is offtopic, or otherwise punishable by death ... but when is the next Ubuntu release scheduled?
[08:40] <zyth> 7.04
[08:40] <ant_> april 17 i think
[08:40] <ardchoille> Dabian: April 19th is when Feisty is scheduled to release
[08:40] <Dabian> April 19th?
[08:40] <Dabian> Great!  Less than a month now!
[08:40] <Dabian> And it will come with lg3d, Beryl and other fancy stuff, right?
[08:41] <ardchoille> Dabian: No
[08:41] <Dabian> No?
[08:41] <ant_> goodnite all.
[08:41] <Dabian> Whats new then?
[08:41] <zyth> that stuff is in the repos.
[08:41] <Dabian> ant_ : Good night, you proud insect. ;-)
[08:41] <zyth> you install desktop-effects
[08:41] <pierc1> I am not really sure how the ubuntu releases work.  is edgy stuck with 2.6.17 forever now?
[08:41] <SilentDis> eeeeee actual user to help in #kubuntu! :D lol
[08:42] <ardchoille> pierc1: Once an Ubuntu is released, you will only get bug fixes and security updates
[08:42] <Dabian> ardchoille : Actually I think Ubuntu is better at bug fixing than Debian though .. but it might just be me?
[08:42] <Madpilot> pierc1, yes, Edgy is 'stuck' with whatever versions it was released with
 and backports?
[08:43] <zyth> pierc1, nah, you can compile your own shiny kernel
[08:43] <peija-kas> Madpilot what about backports
[08:43] <peija-kas> of prgs
[08:43] <Madpilot> peija-kas, yes, there's backports of some things, true.
[08:43] <Dabian> peija-kas : Unofficial.
[08:43] <rm_you|sleep> no backports of kernels though, which is the current topic of discussion, i believe :P
[08:43] <pierc1> so then on april 19th then I will stop getting updates when new versions of the programs I use come out?  (im using feisty)
[08:43] <Chetwin> I know wine has it's own channel, but no one is responding.  Are there any wine devs in here?
[08:44] <Dabian> pierc1 : How can you you use feisty when it is yet to be released?
[08:44] <peija-kas> and you can of course compile programs yourself...use "checkinstall" to install them instead of "make install" (checkinstall needs to be installed from repos!) and it will create .deb files of the prgs u have compiled and installed this way
[08:44] <rm_you|sleep> Chetwin: I've got a bit of experience with various versions of wine, if your problem isn't too technical...
[08:44] <Madpilot> pierc1, feisty has, I think, already entered String Freeze - no new versions of anything will be introduced, barring showstopper bugs
[08:44] <mjbrooks> Dabian: he's probably using herd 5
[08:44] <ricky> debian u can upgrade edgy yet
[08:44] <peija-kas> Dabian im using Feisty testing too to report bugs ;)
[08:44] <Chetwin> rm_you|sleep: can we go to private msg?
[08:45] <cyberfr0g> hi
[08:45] <pierc1> Dabian: I manually changed my sources.list, but as I understand it there is a more graphical nice way to do it now
[08:45] <rm_you|sleep> Chetwin: sure...
[08:45] <peija-kas> but DO NOT upgrade to Feisty yet if ure a normal user
[08:45] <Dabian> pierc1 : Darn .. everything is getting graphical. ;D
[08:45] <peija-kas> its got lot bugs yet
[08:45] <pierc1> is there a G ubuntu yet that will have the new stuff?
[08:45] <Dabian> pierc1 : Us ole boyz have a little trouble keeping up with all that fancy graphical stuff.  (At least some of us (me) does).
[08:46] <pierc1> I used to use debian a million years ago, then I've been using gentoo for about 4 years or so, and just dropped an ubuntu install on my macbook for fun :-)
[08:46] <Dabian> But no Beryl, lg3d or fancy stuff in Fiercy?
[08:46] <pierc1> I like the digitally signed packages etc
[08:46] <mneptok> Dabian: if you spell it "boyz" you're not old. :P
[08:47] <Dabian> mneptok : Hehe
 compiz is included in feisty but not on by default
[08:47] <Dabian> mneptok : Would me not being native english explain that bit? ;-)
[08:47] <pierc1> Dabian: you can install it, but you have to tweak some of the settings
[08:47] <Dabian> pierc1 : Hmm .. I haven't got compiz working.
[08:48] <peija-kas> beryl is easy to install too
[08:48] <mneptok> Dabian: would work as an excuse if you hadn't used "ole."
[08:48] <Dabian> mneptok :)
[08:48] <LaNCeloT_RW> see ya dudes!
[08:48] <LaNCeloT_RW> gotta go sleep
[08:48] <LaNCeloT_RW> =)
[08:48] <pierc1> Dabian: for some reason ubuntu still influenced by some of the dirty old men that ran debian, and some of the code you need is less kosher, so they don't enable it by default
[08:48] <mjbrooks> mneptok: very observant
[08:49] <zyth> actually, compiz isn't on by default because it doesn't work well with anything but intel or nvidia (with closed source proprietary driver) and AIGLX
[08:49] <zyth> so ATI or non-free driver users would be in trouble
[08:49] <pierc1> intel is totally open source
 no, its not on by default since its stll unstabel
[08:49] <pierc1> in the vanilla kernel
[08:49] <Dabian> pierc1 : But we moved away from debian, just to escape those men, didn't we?
[08:49] <zyth> pierc1, I said nvidia closed source
[08:49] <zyth> not intel :P
[08:50] <pierc1> I've been using it (and compiz) for a year, and had few issues
[08:50] <peija-kas> me too
[08:50] <peija-kas> but not al
[08:50] <peija-kas> l
[08:50] <zyth> now that I got an nvidia card, beryl works great, on my old ati card, it sucked.
[08:50] <peija-kas> that was the official reason, not dirty olde men
[08:50] <pierc1> ah, bad comma parsing on my end I guess :-p
[08:50] <Dabian> pierc1 : How is Intels (FOSS) gfx doing performance-wise?
[08:51] <pierc1> Dabian: smooth.  on my macbook I notice far less choppyness than on my desktop which uses a geforce 4 nvidia card
[08:51] <Dabian> zyth : I have a 7900gtx, and Beryl works just fine, at least if I don't watch DVD .. then there seems to be a little loss of performance.
[08:51] <zyth> Dabian, odd, I have a 6200 and it works finre
[08:51] <zyth> *fine
[08:51] <Dabian> pierc1 : GF4 is old.  But it is nice.
[08:51] <Dabian> zyth : I am very picky ... maybe I am just imagining things.
[08:52] <pierc1> im poor :-)  just out of undergrad and no money
[08:52] <zyth> Dabian, hehe
[08:52] <arooni> hey folks
[08:53] <billy> Hi arooni.
[08:53] <pierc1> things get a bit choppy when I play world of warcraft etc, or any of those games while running beryl, but I havn't noticed anything really from just watching videos
[08:54] <zyth> pierc1, thats odd, 3d games work fine for me in beryl.
[08:54] <pierc1> zyth: they work, I can just really notice that they compete over the resources on my card :-)
[08:54] <zyth> pierc1, may I recommend fullscreen?
[08:55] <pierc1> then I can't be on irc at the same time :-p
[08:56] <sid> With the movie player, how can I clear the history of played videos? ie from the "Movie" drop down menu
[08:56] <sid> (I'm not talking about playlist)
[08:56] <pierc1> haha
[08:57] <zyth> sid, that kind of thing isn't saved so people can't spy on your pr0n viewing habits
[08:58] <Madpilot> sid, Places->Recent Documents->Clear Recent Documents will clear the entire system, including most of the Gnome-integrated programs - I know it clears gedit's recent list, it could well work on Totem movie player's
[08:58] <sid> zyth: I rebooted, and it's still there.
[08:58] <sid> thanks Madpilot
[08:59] <poningru> sid: an easy way to avoid that at all is
[08:59] <poningru> make chmod a-xw .recently*
[08:59] <poningru> err
[08:59] <poningru> chmod a-xw .recently*
[09:00] <ardchoille> poningru: Why not just:  ln -s /dev/null ~/.recently-used
[09:01] <poningru> ardchoille: true
[09:01] <kraut> moin
[09:01] <poningru> there are a thousands you can do
[09:02] <pierc1> there is probably only one right way though
[09:02] <Dabian> pierc1 : Maybe its my cpu
[09:03] <pierc1> what?
[09:03] <Dabian> pierc1 : I dont have trouble wit video ... just dvds
[09:03] <pierc1> haha
[09:03] <pelai> define commercial type car.
[09:03] <pierc1> ah
[09:03] <pelai> whoops
[09:03] <Madpilot> Reason #6,762,017 to run Linux: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/6465833.stm
[09:03] <Geoffrey2> is there any particular problem with downloading another jvm when I already have one installed?
[09:04] <Dabian> pierc1 : And my trouble with dvds is not actual stops .. but more like a slowdown feeling.
[09:04] <Dabian> pierc1 : Only occationally.
[09:04] <bz0b> Anyone here use beryl?
[09:04] <Dabian> bz0b : I do.
[09:04] <Frogzoo> bz0b: -> #ubuntu-effects
[09:05] <bz0b> Dabian, i installed it, and it looks to load fine, but i can't understand how to use it, for instance i try and change the theme and it wont change when i double click the one i want or when i try and use the desktop cube with the default bindings that wont work either am i doing soemthing wrong?
[09:06] <lisapc> will a little 1 gig USB flash drive work on Ubuntu?
[09:06] <Tomcat_> lisapc: Yes.
[09:06] <|Amon|> anyone here run apf before?
[09:06] <Dabian> bz0b : Try and reload both.
[09:06] <bz0b> I did
[09:06] <Frogzoo> bz0b: try clicking the red crystal & choose 'change window manager' - does it show beryl as the wm, or gnome?
[09:06] <bz0b> gnome
[09:07] <bz0b> Frogzoo, and when i try choosing beryl it wont go to it
[09:07] <lisapc> Tomcat_,  how?
[09:07] <Tomcat_> lisapc: Plug it in, wait till the window opens? :o
[09:07] <lisapc> Tomcat_,  just plug it into the USB port?  doesnt it need drivers?
[09:07] <Tomcat_> lisapc: The drivers are already there. :)
[09:07] <bz0b> lisapc, no just mount it
[09:07] <poningru> uhh wtf
[09:07] <lisapc> cool :-)
[09:08] <bz0b> that's linux for ya
[09:08] <lisapc> bz0b,  how?
[09:08] <squee> Is there a program that works as a calculator from bash?
[09:08] <bz0b> umm i believe its mount /dev/usb
[09:08] <ardchoille> squee: cal
[09:08] <Tomcat_> squee: There is, but I don't remember the name...
[09:08] <bz0b> i haven't used linux for like 6 months now i forgot
[09:08] <Frogzoo> bz0b: because beryl's broken for you, as it's beta still that's not that amazing
[09:08] <Tomcat_> ardchoille: That's a calendar. :o
[09:08] <squee> ardchoille: cal is a calender
[09:09] <poningru> Tomcat_: are you on moznet?
[09:09] <lisapc> bz0b,  i have 4 usb ports
[09:09] <ardchoille> Oops, misread, sorry
[09:09] <Tomcat_> poningru: Nope, but the nick is not uncommon.
[09:09] <Geoffrey2> I have a java virtual machine installed, but a program I'm trying to install doesn't recognize it and suggests I install one...any particular problem with doing that?
[09:09] <poningru> ah ok
[09:09] <poningru> Geoffrey2: not really... but thats not the right thing to do
[09:09] <poningru> the right thing to do is make your program recognize the one you have installed irhgt now
[09:09] <poningru> Geoffrey2: what program is not installing?
[09:10] <Geoffrey2> a program called Moneydance
[09:10] <bz0b> lisapc, sorry im not sure, i dont mean to be rude but could you ask someone else, they might have a better idea than me
[09:11] <Geoffrey2> poningru, the message I get from the program is 'Please define INSTALL4J_JAVA_HOME to point to a suitable JVM.'
[09:11] <lisapc> bz0b,  no need to be rude
[09:11] <bz0b> lisapc, huh?
[09:11] <ardchoille> lisapc: I have found that most 2.0 usb sticks will auto mount when you plug them in. If you have nautilus set to browse media when plugged in, then nautilus will pop up a window when you plug the usb stick in. If this doesn't work, there are other methods.
[09:11] <poningru> Geoffrey2: hmm
[09:11] <lisapc> bz0b,  jk :)
[09:11] <bz0b> lisapc, try doing this, cd /media
[09:12] <bz0b> and see if its in there
[09:12] <lisapc> ardchoille, how can I set nautilus to browse media when plugged in?
[09:12] <poningru> Geoffrey2: here can you try this?
[09:12] <poningru> run this in the terminal
[09:12] <ardchoille> lisapc: System -> Preferences -> Removable Drives and Media. I believe it's the third checkbox down on the Storage tab
[09:13] <poningru> 'set INSTALL4J_JAVA_HOME=/path/to/jvm
[09:13] <poningru> err remove the quotes
[09:14] <lisapc> ardchoille, auto open files on new media?
[09:14] <poningru> lisapc: yes
[09:14] <lisapc> poningru, ok
[09:14] <lisapc> brb
[09:14] <ardchoille> lisapc: 'Browse removable media when inserted'
[09:14] <lisapc> ardchoille,  ok ty
[09:15] <lisapc> ardchoille, its already selected anyway
[09:15] <ardchoille> lisapc: Plug in your usb stick and see if nautilus pops open
[09:15] <ardchoille> lisapc: You might have to give it a few seconds
[09:15] <lisapc> ardchoille,  sorry I dont have one yet! im asking before I buy one
[09:16] <lisapc> ardchoille, to make sure it will work, so dont waste my money
[09:16] <ardchoille> lisapc: The thing I look for on the usb stick package is "USB 2.0" those seem to work great, I have had trouble with USB 1 on Dapper.
[09:16] <ardchoille> lisapc: Smart idea :)
[09:18] <Geoffrey2> poningru, well, it took it without complaint
[09:20] <poningru> Geoffrey2: restart your app now
[09:20] <badli> morgen
[09:21] <Dabian> badli: Guten
[09:22] <lisapc> ardchoille,  ty :-)
[09:22] <ardchoille> lisapc: You're welcome :)
[09:22] <lisapc> bye for now :)
[09:23] <acoward> call of duty throws an error saying my video card doesn't support some feature or something... will switching to fglrx solve my problem?
[09:23] <Geoffrey2> poningru, nope, it still tells me it can't find a suitable java virtual machine
[09:26] <poningru> Geoffrey2: hmm weird
[09:26] <kagome_> hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
[09:26] <kagome_> leh nalan
[09:26] <poningru> Geoffrey2: what vm do you have installed?
[09:26] <Madpilot> OK, that's irritating. When you hit Ctrl+T for a new tab in Edgy's version of Epiphany, it doesn't automatically move the cursor into the address bar of the new tab...
[09:26] <poningru> Madpilot: thats cause epiphany-- and firefox++
[09:26] <Madpilot> Edgy's Firefox & Opera 9 both do the right thing with new tabs or windows...
[09:26] <ardchoille> Madpilot: Does CTRL+l help?
[09:27] <poningru> ardchoille: yes it does but that sucks
[09:27] <Madpilot> ardchoille, yeah, ctrl+l moves the cursor where it should be, but I shouldn't to do that extra keystroke
[09:27] <Madpilot> shouldn't have to do, rather
[09:27] <ardchoille> Madpilot: Well, you're right about that.
[09:27] <Madpilot> a bug-reporting we shall go
[09:28] <ardchoille> :)
[09:28] <ricky_> anyone know how can i get the kjofol plugin working?
[09:29] <rodzyn> witam
[09:29] <Madpilot> poningru, epiph is the only browser that's ever come close to tempting me away from Opera. It's still got a ways to go, though...
[09:29] <rodzyn> hello
[09:30] <poningru> Madpilot: arent they opposite ends of the spectrum??
[09:30] <poningru> rodzyn: whatsup?
[09:30] <Madpilot> poningru, not really, not the way i've got Opera customized - I use a very minimalist setup w/ Opera
[09:30] <rodzyn> I test IRC because my first time
[09:30] <poningru> Madpilot: why not go with firefox then?
[09:31] <poningru> and make that minimalistic?
[09:31] <raboof> rodzyn: it works :)
[09:31] <rodzyn> :)
[09:31] <Geoffrey2> poningru, sun java 5....the funny thing is the program works fine, this is an installer script for a newer version of Moneydance that insists I don't have a proper jvm installed
[09:31] <ricky_> anyone know how can i get the kjofol plugin working on xmms?
[09:31] <poningru> Geoffrey2: hmm sounds like a bug
[09:31] <Madpilot> poningru, it's 'lukewarm' - I don't like it's defaults (I do like Epiphany's) and it's nowhere near as configurable as Opera... so FF looses from both ends
[09:32] <poningru> Geoffrey2: is it in the repositories?
[09:32] <poningru> Madpilot: bwhahahahhahahahha
[09:32] <poningru> saying firefox is not configurable is like saying diamond isnt hard enough
[09:32] <dromer> hi, I'm trying to get my Quickcam Messenger to work and I found this: http://homes.esat.kuleuven.be/~decockd/wiki/bin/view.cgi/Main/InstallingQuickCamMessengerTOC  << how do I run this script?
[09:32] <Geoffrey2> poningru, no, Moneydance is a program you have to pay for
[09:32] <poningru> Madpilot: granted you have to get into random config file editings
[09:33] <poningru> Geoffrey2: yeah sounds like a bug with their installer
[09:33] <squee> How do I change the shared memory in Edgy? (/etc/sysctl.conf?)
[09:33] <Madpilot> poningru, having masses of plugins & extensions available != configurable. Likewise, fiddling with those random config files is best avoided.
[09:33] <poningru> Madpilot: I thought you said you wanted to tone it down
[09:34] <poningru> if you wanna tone it down then no need for extension
[09:34] <poningru> just do it by hand
[09:34] <ricky_> how can i use kjofol skins on xmms?
[09:34] <poningru> Madpilot: I guess I can understand the dropping down to config files doesnt suit everyone
[09:34] <unimatrix9> why not use winamd skins for your xmms?
[09:34] <unimatrix9> winamp
[09:35] <unimatrix9> classic skins work on xmms, and they look cool
[09:35] <unimatrix9> :)
[09:35] <ricky_> ok
[09:35] <ricky_> just the clasisc ones?
[09:37] <gyaresu> ls
[09:38] <mtchaze> Anybody managed to install PDFedit on Edgy?
[09:38] <|Amon|> mtchaze, why are you running Edgy?
[09:39] <mtchaze> 6.10
[09:39] <|Amon|> ah nvm
[09:40] <mjbrooks> I hate shoping for notebooks, it's so tempting
[09:40] <|Amon|> aye
[09:40] <|Amon|> i just got a toshiba
[09:41] <|Amon|> toshiba satellite
[09:41] <mtchaze> Edgy seems to be very stable, apart from the occasional freeze.
[09:41] <|Amon|> mtchaze, lol
[09:42] <|Amon|> i run lts
[09:42] <mkquist> acoward - cod on linux?
[09:42] <mtchaze> Is there a quick reset similar to CTRL+ALT+DEL
[09:43] <|Amon|> sic, ctrl+alt+tab works in ubuntu
[09:43] <Smurphy[ACS] > mtchaze: Don't have freezes .. I'd check my hardware if I were you :)
[09:44] <|Amon|> Ditto Smurphy[ACS]  .
[09:44] <mtchaze> Does the ctrl+alt+tab start up a new session?
[09:44] <Smurphy[ACS] > :)
[09:44] <Smurphy[ACS] > and I even use Beryl :) under Edgy ...
[09:44] <mkquist> thought it was ctrl/alt/backspace?
[09:45] <Smurphy[ACS] > Nope - sorry ...
[09:45] <mtchaze> Where is Feisty due out?
[09:45] <mkquist> tower records?
[09:45] <pierc1> haha
[09:46] <mjbrooks> mkquist: ^alt-bckspc kills your xserver

[09:46] <mkquist> so does crt/alt/tab reboot?
[09:46] <alvaro> hi
[09:47] <mkquist> mjbrooks - does ctrl/alt/tab reboot?
[09:47] <D0wN> Hey, is there a Linux file shredder, that can do a Gutmann wipe?
[09:47] <jf1> hi
[09:47] <arnina> how to solve it:readline/readline.h: No such file or directory?
[09:47] <jf1> does anyone can reset my freenode password ?
[09:47] <mtchaze> official version of 7.04 in April 19th, 2007
[09:47] <arnina> I need your help
[09:48] <mjbrooks> mkquist: no
[09:48] <Smurphy[ACS] > Yes there is ... KDE -> kpgp has a shredder device ...
[09:48] <Geoffrey2> 6.10 goes crunch on me now and then, but it's a problem with the internal wireless, and I've pretty much accepted there's just no way to fix it.....
[09:48] <jf1> i dunno why from this morning i have "password incorrect"
[09:48] <Smurphy[ACS] > Geoffrey2: What wireless device u using ?
[09:48] <arnina> the /usr/include/readline dir doesnt exist
[09:48] <hi_im_new> Hi all.... At this moment, I have a working ubuntu (which ive used every day for months, and NEVER used windows) and an expired copy of WINDOWS VISTA on another partition.  I finally need to reinstall a copy of XP over that useless VISTA partition, but at the end of it, it will no longer go to GRUB manager and boot directly into XP.  How am I supposed to fix this?
[09:48] <D0wN> Thanks Smurphy[ACS] . I'll look into it.
[09:49] <mtchaze> Is there a mem test app in 6.10?
[09:49] <Geoffrey2> it's a built it Broadcom chipset on a Dell laptop
[09:49] <XP> hi_im_new: u still have the live cd for ubuntu?
[09:49] <arnina> readline/readline.h: No such file or directory?what should i do?
[09:49] <hi_im_new> hmmmmmmmmmm
[09:49] <hi_im_new> i think?  or at least a 6.10 one?
[09:49] <hi_im_new> is that goint to work?
[09:49] <Smurphy[ACS] > D0wNL: :)
[09:50] <mkquist> lol
[09:50] <pierc1> arnina: have you tried    apt-get install libreadline5-dev ?
[09:50] <arnina> oh ,thanks ,i will try
[09:50] <Smurphy[ACS] > hi_im_new: reinstall grub. Boot of the Ubuntu CD - and reinstall grub.
[09:50] <Smurphy[ACS] > !grub | hi_im_new
[09:50] <ubotu> hi_im_new: 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
[09:51] <mjbrooks> Geoffrey2: use ndiswrapper
[09:52] <Smurphy[ACS] > I even got Wifi running flawlessly on a Mac-mini :) That is what I call a Cool Piece of Hardware !!!
[09:53] <mtchaze> Is there a mem test app in Edgy.?
[09:53] <MistaED> mtchaze: yeah it should be in the grub list, memtest86
[09:53] <Madpilot> poningru, if you try to file a bug against epiph in LP, it tells you that epiph does not use Malone as it's bugtracker - but fails to provide an obvious link to epiph's actual bugtracker... :|
[09:54] <Dabian> How do I upgrade to fiercy?
[09:54] <arnina> pierc1:can you show me  all the basic libs when programming?
[09:54] <poningru> Madpilot: oh lp.net does that for like a gajillion packages
[09:54] <poningru> !upgrade | Dabian
[09:54] <ubotu> Dabian: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[09:55] <Dabian> !thanks | poningru
[09:55] <ubotu> poningru: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[09:55] <Madpilot> poningru, yeah, is irritating. You can bypass it by going back to the main bugs page, tho...
[09:55] <pierc1> arnina: anything with -dev on the end will install libraries etc
[09:56] <pierc1> arnina: did that readline thing start working?
[09:56] <arnina> pierc1:yeah
[09:57] <arnina> and how to install all the -dev lib
[09:57] <Dabian> pierc1 : You might want to read this: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/why-not-lgpl.html
[09:57] <pierc1> arnina: neat :-)  lucky guess I suppose     in the package manager, try searching
[09:58] <Dabian> pierc1 : Not exactly the document I was searching for .. but it has some good insights still, IMHO.
[09:58] <arnina> pierc1:ok,thanks
[09:58] <blues_lovva> hello room
[09:58] <pierc1> Dabian: im actually pretty well read on the material :-p
[09:58] <Dabian> pierc1 : And I posted on the wrong window :)
[09:59] <arnina> pierc1:linux/sys.h: No such file or directory?
[09:59] <blues_lovva> quick question: has anyone tred making beryl/compiz work on a SiS adapter?
[09:59] <arnina> i am just compiling the RouterCli
[10:00] <arnina> it will do under RedHat
[10:00] <pierc1> arnina: I would suggest searching google for the error message, and the word ubuntu, and the first hit should tell you what package you need to install.  that sounds like it would be something like linux-headers or something.  I've only been using ubuntu for a week, so I don't really know
[10:02] <lisapc> my Nvidia 7300 supports NVIDIA TurboCache.  How do I turn that feature on?

[10:04] <Dabian> aalhamad : Or open a terminal emulator, and use chmod +w /path/to/directory
[10:04] <lisapc> mjbrooks yes.
[10:04] <pierc1> arnina: blasphemy!
[10:05] <cubny> hi all
[10:05] <lisapc> mjbrooks http://www.amd.com/us-en/0,,3715_13368_13369,00.html?redir=CPSW51
[10:05] <brutus> hi all
[10:05] <Dabian> arnina : Don't tell me .. you work with security on a daily basis, right?
[10:05] <epl> Dabian: hehe
[10:05] <aalhamad> aalhamad@aalhamad:~$ sudo chmod +w  /media/Horace/
[10:05] <aalhamad> chmod: changing permissions of `/media/Horace/': Read-only file system
[10:05] <aalhamad> i want to make it write 2
[10:06] <Dabian> aalhamad : sudo mount -o remount,rw /media/Horace
[10:06] <cubny> is it possible to install compiz on dapper?
[10:06] <lisapc> mjbrooks cooling. This is a place where Intel is far and away way superior to AMD
[10:06] <Dabian> cubny: Yes, next question.
[10:06] <pierc1> cubny: compiz is gross, all the cool kids use beryl now
[10:07] <lisapc> mjbrooks AMD doesnt have the cooling abilities that core duo has.  Hence, without quality cooling, the CPU wont have as good longevity
[10:07] <Dabian> lisapc : Right now I don't think there is a point where Intel isn't supior to AMD .. save price maybe.
[10:07] <arnina> dabian:no,dont do that :chmod 777
[10:07] <Kaip> Ok. This is my first time on the Ubuntu Channel. I have a specific question about a certain wireless card's compatability. Can someone help me?
[10:07] <Dabian> Kaip : Get another card. :-P
[10:07] <Kaip> Lols
[10:07] <pierc1> arnina: you would be shocked to see how many fun exploits you can find by googling for    "chmod 777" inurl:HOWTO
[10:07] <lisapc> Dabian in the long run, the intel will cost less. as it will last longer due to better cooling.  In short term focus AMD is cheaper, but in long term focus, Intel is cheaper
[10:07] <Kaip> Id rather not
[10:08] <Madpilot> Kaip, probably - just ask your question, with specifics if you've got them - card model, etc
[10:08] <cubny> is there any .sh file availabe to do all the beryl install works?
[10:08] <Dabian> lisapc : That depends.
[10:08] <lisapc> Dabian Intel can hire more dedicated engineers to design cooling solutions for their CPU's.  And cooling is the key for longevity and reliability
[10:08] <Dabian> lisapc : I agree the default cooling for AMD is inadequate.
[10:08] <lisapc> Dabian exactly
[10:09] <Kaip> Ok. Its a D-Link DWL-G630 Card Rev E. I know that A through C are supported. But no matter where i search, i cant seem to find any solid information about it.
[10:09] <Dabian> lisapc : But if you buy a new computer every second or third year, and buy better cooling anyhow, I think it wont make a big difference.
[10:09] <Dabian> Kaip : Is it USB?
[10:09] <lisapc> Dabian Intel heatsink is just designed so well, AMD cant compete with that!  And cooling is very very important to longevity and reliability. Hence, intel is more feasible choice
[10:10] <netham45> Successfully Installed Feisty
[10:10] <lisapc> Dabian i never assume a person can afford to do that
[10:10] <Kaip> No. PCMCIA
[10:10] <lisapc> mjbrooks you reading this? :) hehe
[10:10] <cubny> :-/
[10:10] <Dabian> lisapc : Right now I am infact using the default cooler of AMD64x2 4200+ ... I think.
[10:10] <mjbrooks> lisapc: of course
[10:10] <lisapc> mjbrooks your thoughts?
[10:11] <Dabian> lisapc : Yes ... 4200+ (x2)
[10:11] <lisapc> mjbrooks dont ever think about saving a few bucks.  in the long term it wioll cost you more
[10:11] <mjbrooks> lisapc: Intel is evil but they hire Blue Man Group....   I'm torn    lol
[10:11] <lisapc> mjbrooks quality and top class cooling is a main key
[10:11] <Dabian> lisapc : Its on an AM2 motherboard ... i was planning to get a 960 motherboard .. and I have a cooler that fits that board. ;-)
[10:11] <lisapc> mjbrooks and AMD simply cant compete
[10:11] <Kaip> Because im quite keen to get it running on my laptop. But it was just giving me issues
[10:12] <lisapc> mjbrooks define Blue Man Group
[10:12] <mjbrooks> lisapc:it's a theatric group
[10:12] <lisapc> mjbrooks im from Australia, we dont hear about that here
[10:12] <mjbrooks> lisapc: they did some commercials for them
[10:12] <lisapc> mjbrooks what you mean?  and how are they evil?
[10:12] <Dabian> lisapc : 130W cooler ... do you agree that would equal out the advantage on cooling of Intel?
[10:12] <lisapc> Dabian im not qualified to comment on that level. sorry
[10:12] <cubny> is there any .sh file availabe to do all the beryl install works?
[10:12] <Kaip> Dabian (Ill just namedrop with the info) PCMCIA
[10:12] <mjbrooks> lisapc: There's a reason why people say Wintel
[10:13] <Dabian> lisapc : Take my word for it then. :)
[10:13] <lisapc> Dabian I trust nobody :)
[10:13] <Dabian> lisapc : He is not here .. so you'll have to take my word for it ;-)
[10:13] <lisapc> Dabian only the good Lord.  thats it :)
[10:13] <Dabian> lisapc : Nobody and the good Lord. :)
[10:13] <lisapc> Dabian I consider and ponder your words, but I dont fully trust them.  I always do my own due-diligence
[10:14] <lisapc> Dabian :-)
[10:14] <lisapc> mjbrooks if you feel that strongly about such things, then your answer is AMD
[10:14] <mjbrooks> lol
[10:14] <Dabian> lisapc : Durability is seldom a point for me when I buy computer.  When I bought this one June last year, Intel was behind performance-wise ... This is no longer the case.
[10:14] <lisapc> mjbrooks did you realise that the group who own AMD are Satanists?
[10:14] <lisapc> Dabian ok
[10:15] <Dabian> Satanists?
[10:15] <epl> lisapc: what?
[10:15] <lisapc> mjbrooks whatever you buy, realise that someone in the link has ties to something or someone _evil_ :)
[10:15] <Kaip> Dabian Any chance for a little feedback?
[10:15] <Dabian> lisapc : Satanists?  You mean presbytanian?
[10:15] <epl> lisapc: sounds interesting, care to elaborate on the satanist thing?
[10:15] <mjbrooks> lisapc: Satanists?????!  Well that's ok, Bush is my president so I have worse things to worry about
[10:15] <lisapc> epl do you even know who really owns AMD?
[10:16] <epl> lisapc: no
[10:16] <epl> lisapc: please tell me
[10:16] <Dabian> Kaip : Lost track .. but I don't know much about PCMCIA .. save that some cards actually do work.  (Unlike USB, I guess .. where its really seldom).
[10:16] <lisapc> mjbrooks Bush and USA is the beast that came out of the Earth.  Its pure evil :P
[10:16] <lisapc> epl so you dont know who realy owns and controls AMD?
[10:16] <epl> lisapc: I just told you, no I don't.
[10:16] <Kaip> Dabian Yeah. Thats pretty much the answer i keep getting. Any recommendations on a 100% reliable card that will work with Ubuntu?
[10:16] <Supaplex> sweet pumpkin pie. WHO CARES.

[10:17] <lisapc> ATI is now owned by AMD, but AMD is owned buy a guy that lives in Asia.
[10:17] <Dabian> Kaip : I asked about that before .. but didn't get an answer.
[10:17] <mjbrooks> lisapc: don''t be drawing imaginary lines connecting Bush with all of us  The real vote count shows that most of us hate him too
[10:17] <Dabian> Kaip : I know a girl who has a card that works though.
[10:17] <lisapc> ep1 find out and learn about this guy in Asia and his beliefs
[10:17] <Dabian> Kaip : Lemme give her a call.
[10:17] <Kaip> Dabian Wow. That would be great :D
[10:17] <Dabian> Kaip : I doubt she's home / awake though.
[10:18] <Valdebbo> Hi all. I have a strange problem: upon login, a 128x128 square with vertical lines appears in the top left corner, right where the Ubuntu logo should be.
[10:18] <lisapc> mjbrooks so stop being silly then :)  just get the Intel!  everything on earth is evil.
[10:18] <epl> lisapc: hehe
[10:18] <lisapc> epl ;)
[10:18] <Valdebbo> It disappeared once when I ran an application which required root privileges.
[10:18] <lisapc> mjbrooks if I want to avoid everything evil, I would have to move from Earth
[10:18] <mkquist> waaaaay !offtopic
[10:18] <mkquist> lol
[10:19] <lisapc> mjbrooks but having said that, I wont support bad religious organisations or satanic evil ones
[10:19] <mjbrooks> lisapc: I'll help you buy the ticket
[10:19] <mjbrooks> lol
[10:19] <Dabian> Kaip : She answered!
[10:19] <lisapc> mjbrooks ty :)
[10:19] <Dabian> Kaip : She is looking for it now.
[10:19] <lisapc> mjbrooks its ok, im going to heaven one day anyway.  :)
[10:19] <Kaip> Dabian Thanks alot
[10:19] <Valdebbo> Can anyone help me out there?
[10:19] <Dabian> Kaip : "Orinoco" is the name of the card .. "PC-card"
[10:19] <lisapc> mjbrooks so get the intel and be silent ;) hehe
[10:19] <Dabian> Kaip : Its also called "Silver card"

[10:21] <lisapc> latitude use ktorrent
[10:22] <Valdebbo> There is no good Linux torrent client - as of yet.
[10:22] <yell0w> lisapc, according to your logic, i'd have to throw away my rice cooker, abandon my comfy bed, give up on japanimantion, and live on bread for the rest of my life ? no thank you, that's too much of a horror.
[10:22] <Valdebbo> KTorrent is the best among them, but it still s***s donkey c**k.
[10:22] <Valdebbo> Use uTorrent with Crossover.
[10:22] <yell0w> lisapc, i'd rather get by with a bit of evil, asian or not ;(
[10:22] <lisapc> yell0w exactly my point!  so tell that to mjbrooks
[10:23] <lisapc> yell0w NO
[10:23] <lisapc> yell0w avoid it if you can
[10:23] <yell0w> ;(
[10:23] <lisapc> Valdebbo whats Crossover?

[10:25] <lisapc> GTX if you could travel in time and the older you could visit you, you would plea with yourself to give that poison away
[10:25] <Valdebbo> Just download it with KTorrent, then set it up...then set up uTorrent with Crossover. ;)
[10:25] <lisapc> GTX is someont forcing you to drink?
[10:25] <mjbrooks> Valdebbo: bwahahaha
[10:26] <lisapc> GTX when was the last time someone had a gun to your head and commanded you drink?

[10:28] <Hallag1> mjbrooks: No
[10:28] <mjbrooks> Hallag1: well that rots
[10:28] <mneptok> Envy doesn't really "work" *any*where
[10:29] <mjbrooks> mneptok: I've heard it praised  by seceral people
[10:29] <Hallag1> mjbrooks: "ENVY ERROR: Your Operative System does not seem to be supported by Envy " THere it is, ad verbatim
[10:30] <mjbrooks> Hallag1: thanks for the tip
[10:31] <Hallag1> So, can anyone else help?
[10:31] <mjbrooks> man, my laptop broke at a terrible time   I'm flying across the country in just over a week
[10:31] <Dabian> lisapc : Why do you think the Asian guy worships Satan?

[10:34] <Madpilot> oyvind, Applications->Internet->Firefox
[10:34] <oyvind> ok, but i dont find firefox there and thats the problem
[10:34] <MythrilSword> use mozilla
[10:34] <oyvind> can someone send it to me over irc??
[10:34] <oyvind> that would be very nice
[10:34] <olmo21> NHOLA QUE TAL
[10:34] <Madpilot> oyvind, no firefox? standard install of Ubuntu includes FF...
[10:35] <crdlb> oyvind, did you use the desktop installer?
[10:35] <mjbrooks> oyvind: are you in ubuntu or kubuntu?
[10:35] <Hallag1> Can anyone give me a WORKING link or a PM walkthrough of how to get nVidia drivers working on Feisty [I have a 6600GT] . Ive been Googling for two days with no success [Envy doesnt work either] . Does anyone feel like helping me?
[10:35] <oyvind> ubuntu
[10:35] <mkquist> anyone, what causes grub to hang at 'grub loading' any thoughts?

[10:35] <ablyth> hi. new to (k)ubuntu - not to linux - gentoo user for 4 years. got mighty sick of comile times... is there a unstable repo or the the like so i can get not quite so bleeding edge but pretty close to packages?
[10:35] <billy> mkquist:  trying to boot windows?
[10:35] <crdlb> Hallag1, the new nvidia drivers are included in feisty, you do not need (or want) to use envy
[10:35] <arnina> anybody know the lib for linux/sys.h?
[10:35] <oyvind> version  for pc its what i have installed
[10:35] <Madpilot> ubotu, es | olmo21

[10:35] <mkquist> billy - nope ubuntu
[10:36] <mkquist> billy - no windows installed, just ubuntu
[10:36] <lisapc> Dabian my point is, you will proably never know for sure if the asian guy who owns AMD does or does not
[10:36] <billy> mkquist: have you edited fstab lately?
[10:36] <psyke83> hi, can someone tell me what package is responsible for generating /etc/hosts? I want to file a bug on launchpad and need to know what package to file against
[10:36] <oyvind> can someone talk to me in a private chat if you want to help me :)
[10:37] <billy> mkquist: what am I thinking?  I mean menu.lst.
[10:37] <Hallag1> crdlib: So tell me why Beryl wont work and I have to edit my xorg.conf to use the vesa drivers or else all I get is a screenfull of pixelly mess then
[10:37] <mkquist> billy - fresh install, nothing done yet, except tried to reinstall grub.. same result
[10:37] <Madpilot> oyvind, is there a small blue globe icon on your top panel? That'll launch Firefox...
[10:37] <lisapc> my Nvidida 7300 suppports TurboCache up tp 512MB.  How do I turn that on?
[10:37] <Hallag1> crdlib:And the default nv gives me that pixelliness
[10:37] <pentarim> hi all
[10:37] <oyvind> no its not
[10:37] <billy> mkquist: Edgy, Dapper?
[10:37] <mkquist> Edgy
[10:37] <pentarim> anybody has info on ubuntu edgy repository with 5.1.2 php in it?
[10:37] <crdlb> Hallag1, no: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx linux-genearic
[10:37] <pentarim>  its unbeliveable that older releases of packages arent stored somewhere
[10:38] <mkquist> billy - Edgy
[10:38] <billy> mkquist:  not sure.
[10:38] <Madpilot> ubotu, info php
[10:38] <ubotu> Package php does not exist in edgy, edgy-backports, edgy-seveas
[10:38] <Hallag1> crdlib: What driver to I put in my xorg.conf then?
[10:38] <pentarim> php5
[10:38] <Madpilot> oyvind, what is in your Applications->Internet menu, if not Firefox?
[10:38] <crdlb> Hallag1, "nvidia", if you run nvidia-xconfig it'll do it for you
[10:39] <Madpilot> ubotu, info php5
[10:39] <ubotu> php5: server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language (meta-package). In component main, is optional. Version 5.1.6-1ubuntu2.3 (edgy), package size 1 kB, installed size 20 kB
[10:39] <oyvind> how can i get firefox if i dont have a internett browser?????
[10:39] <pentarim> yep, but i need 5.1.2
[10:39] <Madpilot> oyvind, Firefox is installed by default
[10:39] <oyvind> can i search for it??
[10:39] <arnina> oyvind:wget
[10:39] <oyvind> wget??
[10:39] <crdlb> oyvind, press alt+f2 , then type firefox
[10:40] <oyvind> ok
[10:40] <oyvind> thxx
[10:40] <Hallag1> crdlib: SO why hasnt this worked the first 30 [serious estimate]  Ive done it?
[10:40] <arnina> oyvind:should know the url addr first
[10:40] <skule> seems that the updater upgraded my kernel from 2.6.17-10 to 2.6.17-11 and now the nvidia modules refuses to load, any advices for me ?
[10:40] <oyvind> i dont have it
[10:41] <arnina> oyvind:then download it :wget [url addr] 
[10:41] <billy> later gang.
[10:41] <pentarim> Madpilot: any ideas how to install it with apt-get?
[10:41] <crdlb> Hallag1, no idea, the wonderful people of #ubuntu+1 may have an answer
[10:41] <bubblenut> I can only access the internet if I start applications as root, if I try to run them as a normal user it doesn't recognize that there's a network there, any ideas?
[10:41] <crdlb> (but that is how you are supposed to do it)
[10:42] <latitude> skule, reinstall the nvidia driver
[10:42] <Madpilot> pentarim, the specific version of php you need? I doubt you can, there is only going to be one version of PHP 5 officially packaged for Edgy. Someone might have an unofficial repo somewhere, I guess.
[10:42] <pentarim> Madpilot: any ideas where to search for it, i googled for hours
[10:43] <pentarim> Madpilot: maybe wrong keywords :)
[10:43] <Madpilot> pentarim, no, sorry. why do you need such a specific version of php 5?
[10:43] <skule> latitude, tryed apt-get remove nvidia-glx nvidia-kernel-common, and the apt-get install again, but still the same
[10:43] <jeffg_work> on my edgy-i386 system, firefox 2 never gets beyond prompting for new or resumed session.  blowing away ~/.mozilla/firefox results in the same symptoms, except it hangs after the import dialog.  a brand new user account gets the same issue.  strace shows firefox-bin spinning on poll(), read(), ioctl().
[10:44] <jeffg_work> (spinning may be a poor choice of words -- there is a ~15 second delay between "spins")
[10:44] <pentarim> Madpilot: i make some development in php and debugger wants only to work with 5.1.2
[10:45] <oyvind> hi
[10:45] <PloneDude> how do i recurisively chmod a entire folder and all subfolders...
[10:45] <crdlb> PloneDude, chmod -R
[10:45] <kzm> Hi!  Trying to create a .deb, and somehow managed to get one installed in a "very bad inconsistent state".  How can I remove it?
[10:46] <arnina> anyone know which lib <linux/sys.h> requires?
[10:47] <Madpilot> pentarim, time to update your debugger ;)
[10:47] <PloneDude> crdlb: thanks dude

[10:49] <kalin> that's what i wanted :)
[10:49] <Dabian> lisapc : One of the reasons that Intel (currently) is better than AMD, is that they bought technology from AMD. :)
[10:50] <arnina> crdlld,how about lacking for <linux/sys.h>
[10:50] <oyvind> can anyone tell me the easyest way to get a internett browser if you dont have one installed on your computer??
[10:50] <sacater> Dabian: well the Intel is best atm, but i expect AMD will make a comeback
[10:50] <Dabian> lisapc : While I agree that Intel might be the best choice as it is, I don't think there is a reason to become religious about it .. the next CPU from AMD might change it.
[10:51] <amaan> what is the difference between 6.10 and 6.06 LTS?
[10:51] <Dabian> sacater : Right, I wouldn't be surprised either. :)
[10:51] <sacater> amaan: different versions, upgrades, new features etc
[10:51] <Dabian> amaan : 6.06 has long term support.
[10:51] <mneptok> amaan: 6.06 is supported on the desktop for 3 years, sorver 5 years
[10:51] <Dabian> amaan : Hence the LTS.
[10:51] <mneptok> *server
[10:51] <sacater> Dabian: maybe Celeron may make the best comeback :P

[11:18] <alex__> is there a way of upgrading to feisty online?
[11:18] <mneptok> davidelv: there is no Picasa for Linux. use F-Spot
[11:18] <mneptok> davidelv: Rhythmbox, Banshee, Amarok.
[11:19] <infidel> mneptok, there is
[11:19] <pfchen> join in the sources
[11:20] <sap> so how you get gnome 2.18?
[11:20] <davidelv> mneptok: Ive tried f-spot, I miss a lot of features from picasa, is f-spot the best?
[11:20] <mjbrooks> jube: if it's that different I'd post a new bug and provide a link to the old bug saying it's similar and add a comment in the old bug to the new bug    confused yet?? I know I am

[11:20] <sap> it does not update to 2.18
 davidelv: there is no Picasa for Linux. use F-Spot < wrong
[11:20] <lisapc> pfchen aptitude
[11:20] <soundray> mneptok: no, download from google
[11:20] <mneptok> JohnRobert: in te repos?
[11:20] <JohnRobert> however, you don't really want picassa for linux as it's not very nice
[11:20] <pfchen> my picasa is normal
[11:20] <JohnRobert> no, you can just download it from the picassa site
[11:20] <jube> mjbrooks: not confused. haha  but here is the error message from launchpad:                                                    Nautilus does not use Malone as its bug tracker.                  To report a bug about Nautilus,       please use its official bug tracker.
[11:20] <JohnRobert> pfchen: you sure it's not running through wine? :)
[11:20] <mjbrooks> lisapc: no  I'm just helpful. They're too smart to give me op status ;)
[11:20] <infidel> mneptok, not sure about that but i know there is picasa for linux and i installed it on ubuntu before
[11:20] <pfchen> ok
[11:20] <jube> but, there is no information about where the official bug tracker is! ha
[11:20] <mneptok> JohnRobert: please do not ask new Ubuntu users to install software outside of repositories.
[11:20] <JohnRobert> mine locks up X when you try doing slide show tc
[11:20] <lisapc> mjbrooks lol :)
[11:21] <pfchen> i have done like that ,haha
[11:21] <JohnRobert> mneptok: I wasn't asking anyone to do anything
[11:21] <JohnRobert> I was just saying it is available for linux
[11:21] <latitude> deb http://dl.google.com/linux/deb/ stable non-free - picasa repo
[11:21] <JohnRobert> and I wasn't recommending it
[11:21] <JohnRobert> use f-spot instead of picassa
[11:21] <RolandB1> hey, can anybody tell me please a howto installing ati drivers.
[11:21] <pfchen> you are right
[11:21] <JohnRobert> much better, native program
[11:21] <soundray> !ati > RolandB1 (private message)
[11:21] <pfchen> windows or linux
[11:21] <davidelv> Ive heard that Picasa for Linux performe very poor, as it is running throug some kind of windows emulation
[11:21] <pfchen> ?
[11:21] <Bhaskar> how can i remove openoffice, i have problem of crashed
[11:22] <latitude> please help, i just installed frostwire and the windows are just blank
[11:22] <RolandB1> soundray: I've tried that howto but it dosne't work..
[11:22] <pfchen> no ,my picasa running ok
[11:22] <JohnRobert> davidelv: that's true, it uses a statically linked hacked up version of wine or something...it's not terrible..it's quite good considering, but still, google have been lame in not bothering to write a native app
[11:22] <jube> I use Picasa for linux all the time. But I just use it to quickly create webbased photo albums. I really like the way they look and it's fast and easy.
[11:22] <soundray> Bhaskar: try this: mv ~/.openoffice.org2 ~/openoffice.org2-backup
[11:22] <JohnRobert> it's pretty gross actually
[11:22] <soundray> Bhaskar: then see if it still crashes

[11:34] <lastrainson> hello everyone... I have a problem helping a friend installing qt4 on ubuntu. Everything seems fine excepted there is nothing more than the "demonstrations" section in qtdemo and I can't find the qt examples. apt-cache search didn't help. Do you know if there is any extra package I need to get him installed or anything else to do ?
[11:34] <ferronica> soundray: The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
[11:34] <ferronica>     moments.
[11:34] <ferronica> soundray: this error i am gettin from 24 hour
[11:34] <soundray> ferronica: I can't help you with this. It is not an Ubuntu issue.
[11:34] <ferronica> soundray: If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network
[11:34] <ferronica>     connection.
[11:35] <ferronica> soundray: but all other website opening good
[11:35] <ferronica> soundray: without any problem
[11:35] <davidelv> when my laptop is fully charged, ubuntu still shows a almost empty battery :-/
[11:35] <skule> seems tha update upgraded the kernel from 2.6.17-10 to 2.6.17-11 and forgot to upgrade linux-restricted-modules, so nvidia drivers stopped working. Is that a bug ?
[11:35] <mneptok> ferronica: stop clicking refresh
[11:36] <mneptok> ferronica: the page TELLS you not to click refresh
[11:36] <ferronica> mneptk: ok, what to do now???
[11:36] <RolandB1> soundray : hey,  when I paste the code ddcprobe | grep monitorrange it dosne't show me anytying ( I fallow that doc you gave me )
[11:36] <mneptok> ferronica: read the eroor message?
[11:37] <ferronica> mneptk: If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure
[11:37] <ferronica>     that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
[11:37] <soundray> skule: try installing linux-generic
[11:37] <mneptok> ferronica: Demonoid error message or browser?
[11:37] <ferronica> mneptk: yes this is demonoid error
[11:37] <mneptok> ferronica: read the error
[11:37] <ferronica> mneptk: 3 errors
[11:38] <davidelv> doh, ive been talking to a bot
[11:38] <cornucopia> uptime[5h 0m 49s] 
[11:38] <soundray> RolandB1: not all monitors support ddc. Get the specs from the monitor manual, or use the "simple" option in dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:38] <HiP_P> have i got to downgrade thunderbird to get it work again?
[11:38] <ferronica> mneptk: you mean to check network problem
[11:38] <mneptok> ferronica: no, i mean "read the error message"
[11:39] <ferronica> mneptk: already read, dont know what to do
[11:39] <mneptok> ferronica: like the part that says "DO NOT USE REFRESH IT WILL NOT WORK CLICK THIS LINK INSTEAD"
[11:39] <mneptok> so, you might try *not using refresh* and actually *clicking the link*
[11:39] <davidelv> I have been hearing a lot of hype, about a dist called PCLinuxOS that is supposed to be better than ubuntu, anyone tried it?
[11:40] <ferronica> mneptk: no i am not doing anything
[11:40] <ferronica> mneptk: just clicking the TRY Again option
[11:41] <ferronica> mneptk: in your computer opens fine
[11:41] <leagris> dvidelv better go to PCLinuxOS IRC channel and ask about you'v heard about a dist called Ubuntu that is supposed to be better than PCLinuxOS ;D
[11:42] <soundray> leagris: yeah, all the 21 people there will wholeheartedly agree ;)
[11:42] <skule> soundray, linux-generic, what is the deal about that, new kernel ?
[11:43] <soundray> skule: no, it's a metapackage that ensures you always have the latest -image- and -restricted-modules-
[11:43] <markvandenborre> any idea how I put an automated redirect from one page to another in wiki.ubuntu.com?
[11:44] <davidelv> leagris: ok :-)
[11:47] <koala> Hello, i want to set up gaim or other program starting on startup, but i can't find how to do it. Can anybody help me?

[11:55] <Smotang> Hello, I need help using the DD command on a DVD that I have in my DVD player. I want to copy all the files using DD to a folder on my hardrive can someone help me please?
[11:55] <Helmi> guys i got a .img fiel which is an iso9660 image - i can perfectly mount it but how can i burn this image on dvd? gnomeBaker can't open it
[11:56] <davidelv> I originally converted to ubuntu, because ati doesnt make vista drivers to my radeon 9200. I thought it would be difficult, but until now it think everything is much easier than making things works in vista
[11:56] <gordonjcp> Helmi: tried renaming to .iso?
[11:56] <jeffg_work> on my edgy-i386 system, firefox 2 never gets beyond prompting for new or resumed session.  blowing away ~/.mozilla/firefox results in the same symptoms, except it hangs after the import dialog.  a brand new user account gets the same issue.  strace shows firefox-bin repeatedly poll(), read(), ioctl(FIONREAD).  suggestions?
[11:56] <Helmi> gordonjcp: no ... i will
[11:56] <gordonjcp> Helmi: just a thought
[11:56] <Helmi> ok will try gordonjcp
[11:57] <RolandB1> davidelv: I have the same video card but I can't get the 3d acc to work
[11:58] <soundray> RolandB1: in Section "Screen", you have Device     "Generic Video Card" -- should this be Device "aticonfig-Device[0] "?
[11:58] <RolandB1> soundray: just a sec please
[11:58] <Whoopie> hi, I'd like to test something with gnome-screensaver on Feisty LiveCD. but for that, I need to enable screen locking. I already enabled it in screensaver preferences and gave a password to user "ubuntu". but there's no password dialog at gnome-screensaver. any ideas?
[11:58] <davidelv> RolandBl: it works out of the box with 7.04beta 5 (or whatever the name is)
[11:59] <Whoopie> sudo also needs no password.
[11:59] <soundray> RolandB1: essentially, you have to go through and check all the cross-references in the config.
[11:59] <Helmi> gordonjcp: looks good so far - we'll see when it's finished ;)
[11:59] <soundray> Whoopie: ask in #ubuntu+1 please
[12:01] <WindoM> ubuntu-it
[12:01] <davidelv> RolandB1: but desktop effects, doenst work problably :-(
[12:01] <RolandB1> soundray: http://pastebin.ca/403416 here is my lasted xorg.conf but it still dosne't work

[12:02] <Xsylotte> hi

[12:03] <Xsylotte> anyone?
[12:03] <soundray> !elaborate | Xsylotte
[12:03] <ubotu> Xsylotte: Please elaborate, your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel)
[12:03] <ferronica> which one is the best game in ubuntu
[12:03] <RolandB1> soundray : I've added HorizSync  and VertRefresh
[12:03] <ferronica> i wanna to try one good game ubuntu provide

[12:03] <ferronica> soudray: do u know
[12:03] <Xsylotte> i could't find how to install driver for chipset
[12:03] <soundray> RolandB1: in Section "Screen", you have Device     "Generic Video Card" -- should this be Device "aticonfig-Device[0] "?
[12:03] <ferronica> soudray: Good Game
[12:03] <Xsylotte> and i've tried to install driver for nvidia graphic card but..i couldn't
[12:04] <Xsylotte> any url or something
[12:04] <Xsylotte> ?
[12:04] <jube> ferronica: did you try tremulous?
[12:04] <soundray> !nvidia > Xsylotte, please read the private message from ubotu
[12:04] <ferronica> jube: not yet, do i need to download????
[12:04] <jube> yup...
[12:04] <jube> it's a first person shooter game kind of like doom
[12:04] <Xsylotte> ok
[12:04] <jube> but you play it with other people
[12:05] <jube> i quite like it even though I'm not very good
[12:05] <Xsylotte> soundray, first i need to install chipset driver ?
[12:05] <Xsylotte> right ?
[12:05] <Xsylotte> then graphic card's driver ?
[12:05] <Whoopie> soundray: ok, thanks.
[12:05] <soundray> Xsylotte: no
[12:05] <jube> http://www.tremulous.net/
[12:05] <ferronica> jube: from where do i download
[12:06] <cafuego_> Xsylotte: The chipset is supported by Linux, all you need is the gfx driver.
[12:06] <jube> i played it on dapper and feisty both with no problems at all
[12:06] <Xsylotte> hmm
[12:06] <adam_> hey guys, I installed Firestarter... but it doesn't seem to be doing as well as my Firewall in winXP - I'm trying to download the World of Warcraft BlizzardDownloader.exe and Firestarter still seems to be blocking it even after I opened the correct ports
[12:06] <RolandB1> soundray: ok I've added that..now I get http://pastebin.ca/403421
[12:06] <Xsylotte> when i checked hardware info
[12:06] <Xsylotte> it says k8 mainboard
[12:06] <Xsylotte> or something
[12:06] <Xsylotte> but not precise model
[12:07] <RolandB1> davidelv: did you tried?
[12:07] <ferronica> jube: i am using ubuntu 6.06 LTS Dapper drake is it available for it???
[12:07] <ferronica> jube: how to download it????
[12:08] <cafuego_> Xsylotte: You running Linux on it now?
[12:08] <soundray> RolandB1: revert that change and read my earlier replies carefully
[12:08] <cyberfr0g> yo
[12:08] <jube> ferronica, you have to download it and then install it. but it's very easy to do...   The download page is here: http://tremulous.net/files/
[12:08] <jube> you want to download the Version 1.1.0 for Linux
[12:09] <ferronica> jube: Can i download it from terminal??????
[12:09] <soundray> RolandB1: better yet, restore xorg.conf from the oldest backup in /etc/X11 and start over, following the wiki instructions carefully
[12:09] <jube> you mean with apt-get?
[12:09] <ferronica> jube: Yes
[12:10] <soundray> !info tremulous | ferronica
[12:10] <jube> try typing this: apt-cache search tremulous
[12:10] <ubotu> ferronica: tremulous: Aliens vs Humans, team based FPS game with elements of an RTS. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1.1.0-2 (edgy), package size 1153 kB, installed size 2740 kB
[12:10] <Xsylotte> yes
[12:10] <jube> tremulous might not be in dapper...
[12:10] <Smotang> omfg I love linux so much, Able to retrieve my file ( I hope) and it doesnt make my system chugg while doing it!
[12:10] <cafuego_> Xsylotte: 'lspci'
[12:11] <soundray> !info tremulous dapper
[12:11] <ferronica> jube: search showing nothing :(
[12:11] <ubotu> Package tremulous does not exist in dapper
[12:11] <jube> ferronica, that's cause you are in dapper
[12:11] <cafuego_> Xsylotte: that'll give you hardware info. The fact Linxu runs at all means the chipset is supported :-)
[12:11] <jube> but it's very easy to play it in dapper. I did it before I upgraded and it worked fine...
[12:11] <ferronica> jube: what to do
[12:11] <cyberfr0g> I'll soon find out
[12:11] <jube> ferronica, do you have a graphics card?
[12:11] <Xsylotte> unknown unknown etc... :)
[12:12] <adam_> Firewall suggestions for Linux? besides Firestarter?
[12:12] <ferronica> jube: yes NVIDIA Fx 5200 i am using
[12:12] <apokryphos> adam_: please take a look at the FAQ <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions> as linked to in the channel /topic.
[12:12] <Xsylotte> 0000:00:06.0 IDE interface: nVidia Corporation: Unknown device 0053 (rev f2)
[12:12] <Xsylotte> etc etc etv.
[12:12] <jube> ferronica, ok, same as me. it should work fine
[12:12] <Smotang> dd if=/mnt/cdrom-1/File.avi of=/home/smo/file.avi conv=noerror is that the right syntax??
[12:12] <adam_> apokryphos: Ty!
[12:12] <jube> just download it from here: http://tremulous.net/files/
[12:12] <ferronica> jube: ok tell me do i need to make changes in synaptic
[12:12] <cafuego_> Xsylotte: Yeah, that's fine. The database matching those numbers to actual names isn't up to date.
[12:12] <Tomcat_> -media
[12:12] <michoelc> Hi all. Am trying to boot ubuntu from USB, but I don't have USB support from BIOS. Trying googling but I didn't find much.. could anyone help. TIA
[12:12] <Tomcat_> -xmms
[12:12] <Tomcat_> !xmms
[12:12] <ubotu> Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Banshee, Beep Media Player, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, XMMS (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based).  Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine  -  See also !codecs
[12:12] <jube> you want the second one. called: tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run
[12:13] <jube> ferronica, you don't need to do anything in synaptic
[12:13] <cafuego_> CK8-04 chipset, I'd hazard
[12:13] <jube> download that one file and then you can install it by typing one command: sudo sh tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run
[12:14] <Smotang> ack! it did not work, It copied the file but the file had a poop anyways. Now I have a file in my home folder that was created using root, how do i delete it in command?
[12:14] <thoreauputic> Smotang: sudo rm filename
[12:14] <Smotang> rm = remove?
[12:14] <thoreauputic> Smotang: yes
[12:14] <Smotang> thanks muchly!
[12:14] <soundray> michoelc: if your BIOS can't boot from USB, there isn't much you can do, except if the board manufacturer has provided an updated BIOS.
[12:15] <thoreauputic> :)
[12:15] <ferronica> jube: you mean from site
[12:15] <Smotang> also say i wanted to keep the file how do i change permissions from command line?
[12:15] <thoreauputic> Smotang:  see  man chmod  and man chown
[12:15] <ferronica> jube: from here http://tremulous.net/files/
[12:15] <jube> ferronica, yup. you can download the installer from their website.
[12:15] <jube> yup
[12:15] <Smotang> thanks muchly thoreauputic!
[12:15] <Gekitsuu> if anyone has any experience with CLI/UI programming what would you recommend for writing a somewhat sophisticated CLI interface?
[12:16] <jube> the file is for Linux (version 1.1.0) called tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run
[12:16] <soundray> Smotang: also consider spending some time with cli:
[12:16] <thoreauputic> Smotang: yw :)
[12:16] <soundray> !cli > Smotang
[12:16] <ferronica> jube: which one version 1.1.0(stand alone)
[12:16] <jube> ferronica, yup
[12:16] <ferronica> jube: ok zip one
[12:16] <michoelc> soundray, I read about making a CD with the kernel and initrd, which sets USB as root. But I couldn't instructions that I am capable of following for how to do that.
[12:16] <jube> not the zip one
[12:16] <jube> do the linux one
[12:16] <soundray> Gekitsuu: ncurses perhaps?
[12:16] <jube> tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run
[12:17] <soundray> Gekitsuu: actually that's for text-based GUIs
[12:17] <ferronica> jube: ok , after that i have run it as we do in windows right
[12:17] <Gekitsuu> that's what I'm looking for text-based
[12:17] <Gekitsuu> I was hoping to find something that would be a little quicker to develop with than curses/ncurses
[12:17] <jube> yup, you run that downloaded file by typing this in the command prompt: sudo sh tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run
[12:17] <soundray> !install | michoelc, have you looked at this
[12:17] <ubotu> michoelc, have you looked at this: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues
[12:17] <thoreauputic> !msg
[12:18] <ubotu> Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude.
[12:19] <jube> ferronica, you can just say yes to all the questions in the installer (i didn't have to change anything)
[12:20] <ferronica> jube: ok i have clicked on that installer
[12:20] <jube> the last question says "run the game" or "exit" - just choose exit. then you can run it by typing "tremulous"
[12:20] <jube> it should also be in your games menu
[12:20] <ferronica> jube: It took me to the installer site
[12:20] <humbolto> gnome-volume-manager config shows an option "auto-run programs on new drives and media". I would like to make use of that and execute a backup script, when I insert a certain USB key. How would I do that?
[12:20] <jube> ferronica, i think you need to run that file from the terminal
[12:21] <jube> open a terminal, cd Desktop
[12:21] <jube> then type: sudo sh tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run
[12:21] <jube> that will install it
[12:21] <ferronica> jube: i clicked that link
[12:21] <jube> oh, did you download the file?
[12:21] <ferronica> jube: but download window didnt camed yet
[12:21] <jube> oh ok...
[12:22] <soundray> Gekitsuu: don't kill me for this suggestion: consider writing it in emacs lisp for use in emacs.
[12:22] <michoelc> soundray, took a look, but I don't see an answer to my problem. I managed to install to the usb from CD.. but I can't boot from it. (I can boot from it using another computer which has BIOS support).
[12:22] <jube> if it doesn't come quickly, you could try clicking the use "this direct link" ?
[12:22] <ferronica> jube: not yet
[12:23] <ferronica> jube: download window didnt camed
[12:23] <Gekitsuu> well I want to be able to call it as a users default shell can you do that with emacs?
[12:23] <soundray> Gekitsuu: I think so
[12:23] <ferronica> jube: Okay
[12:23] <Gekitsuu> ok I'll have to check that out :) I'm a python guy so I fear no LISP
[12:23] <Gekitsuu> thanks
[12:24] <jube> ferronica, downloading now?
[12:24] <ferronica> jube: a new page opens with text file
[12:24] <soundray> michoelc: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromUSB
[12:25] <jube> ferronica, that is very strange... maybe you have to right click it and say "Save as"........ weird
[12:26] <ferronica> jube: you mean that page File -  save
[12:26] <michoelc> soundray, great... now why didn't I find that when I tried googling :-(. Thanks a million.
[12:26] <jube> ferronica, i think there was a problem cause it should not open a text file
[12:27] <ferronica> jube: i am here ---> http://nchc.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/tremulous/tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run
[12:27] <ferronica> jube: in this page
[12:27] <soundray> michoelc: yeah, and why didn't you find it on the install advice page
[12:27] <jube> maybe click "back" and then instead of clicking that link, right-click it and choose "Save As" to save the file to your desktop
[12:27] <davidelv> RolandB1: I have beryl working now
[12:27] <ferronica> jube: showing me texts
[12:27] <kleftisx> is there any good download accelerator like FlashGet for Ubuntu 6.10 ???
[12:28] <jube> ferronica. yeah, showing you texts is wrong
[12:28] <jube> try going here: http://sourceforge.net/project/downloading.php?groupname=tremulous&filename=tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run&use_mirror=nchc
[12:28] <ferronica> jube: have you opened that link that i sent
[12:28] <jube> then "right-click" the 'use this direct link' part to save the file to your desktop
[12:28] <peach> MulitGet like flashget
[12:29] <ferronica> jube: save link
[12:29] <jube> ferronica, yes I opened it and got text too. it shouldn't do that. it should be saved not displayed
[12:29] <jube> ferronica, yp
[12:29] <jube> yup
[12:29] <ferronica> jube: "this direct link" right click on it save lin
[12:30] <ferronica> jube: right
[12:30] <jube> yup
[12:30] <jube> it should download it to your Desktop
[12:30] <ferronica> jube: and save it on desktop
[12:30] <jube> yup
[12:31] <ferronica> jube: ok there is one icon on desktop
[12:31] <ferronica> jube: now what???
[12:31] <jube> is it fully downloaded already?
[12:31] <jube> it should be about 100MB in size
[12:31] <kleftisx> is there any good download accelerator like FlashGet for Ubuntu 6.10 ???
[12:32] <smiley_> ok..new question

[12:32] <peach> MulitGet is very good download software,youcan apt is
[12:32] <soundray> !fixres > smiley_, please read ubotu
[12:32] <davidelv> Beryl is stunning with my 64MB Radeon!! And vista isnt able to flip windows!!
[12:33] <jube> ferronica, OK. It's about 100MB so you have to wait until it's finished
[12:33] <soundray> smiley_: the private message, I mean
[12:33] <jube> ferronica, when it's done. you want to open a terminal
[12:33] <ferronica> jube: 101 MB

[12:34] <DocTomoe> Hm, any volunteers in getting a usb-connected phone to work? my new samsung X830 tells me that it is connected, and dmesg throws http://pastebin.ca/403446 at me. however, I am too stoopid to mount that thing
[12:35] <leagris> Xsylotte, you can try purging XUL.mfasl from the firefox profile.
[12:35] <Xsylotte> ok, what that means ? :)
[12:35] <Xsylotte> i am new to all  this
[12:36] <soundray> DocTomoe: if it's a CDMA phone, it may be supported by bitpim if you're lucky
[12:36] <soundray> !bitpim | DocTomoe
[12:37] <ubotu> doctomoe: bitpim: utility to communicate with many CDMA phones. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.9.04.dfsg.1-1 (edgy), package size 3884 kB, installed size 12952 kB
[12:37] <DocTomoe> soundray: I don't care about the modem stuff - too expensive anyways. I want access to the 1GB Mediaplayer part.
[12:37] <leagris> Xsylotte, in your home directory there is a directory containing your current firefox settings and temporary files. It is like : .mozilla/firefox/2shuf1vi.default/
[12:37] <jube> ferronica, is it still downloading?
[12:38] <DocTomoe> soundray: ehci_hcd should mean some kind of usb disk actually is found, isn't it?
[12:38] <soundray> DocTomoe: from the package info: "BitPim allows you to view and manipulate data..."
[12:38] <bob-aptllc> Can anyone help me with virtualbox usb?
[12:38] <soundray> DocTomoe: I don't think so, but check with 'sudo fdisk -l' to see if you have a /dev/sdX device that has the right size
[12:39] <leagris> Xsylotte, inside this directory there is a file XUL.mfasl you can safely remove (temp work file recreated upon firefox restart)
[12:39] <davidelv> MS was right, sometimes you DO just say wow! Beryl!
[12:40] <adam_> Why is my computer download so slow!? it says I'm behind a Firewall and I'm NOT :(
[12:40] <Slart> adam: what kind of download?
[12:40] <adam_> the World of Warcraft BlizzardDownloader.exe
[12:41] <adam_> trying to get WoW on my linux PC and play it using Wine
[12:41] <Slart> adam_: ok.. then you probably have some kind of router between you and internet.. or?
[12:41] <peach> I am mldonkey very slowly also?
[12:42] <adam_> yes I have a hardware router/firewall also, and I have the ports open already for it from when I opened them for playing on my WinXP computer
[12:42] <peach> just 20kb/s
[12:43] <Slart> adam_: then I'd start checking those ports again... perhaps somethings changed... winxp has some plug'n'play firewall woodoo that might have worked it's magic before
[12:43] <adam_> the Wine WoW instructions I was following to get the game to work, said to install Firestarter.. but it doesn't seem to work correctly, BlizzardDownloader.exe still says I'm behind a firewall
[12:44] <soundray> adam_: do a speed test with http://www.bandwidthplace.com/speedtest/ -- if the result is normal, the problem is on the server side and there's nothing much you can do.
[12:44] <Slart> adam_: I don't play wow myself so I can't really help you with specifics... but I'd start checking that router... check that the ports are still the same, that you have the same ip under linux as you have in windows
[12:44] <bob-aptllc> **When I insert my flash drive into the USB port, the virtualbox guest "sees" it, but then locks up. Can anyone help?**
[12:45] <soundray> bob-aptllc: not sure. I'd run 'tail -f /var/log/syslog' in the guest and see if any errors are logged as you plug the drive in.
[12:46] <Slart> adam_: I doubt you need firestarter to play wow
[12:46] <adam_> how can i delete firestarter and make sure the settings i made using it are deleted as well
[12:47] <adam_> im afraid to delete firestarter now because it might leave the settings i made the same without erasing them as well
[12:47] <Slart> adam_: sudo apt-get remove firestarter .. then we'll check iptables
[12:48] <ferronica> jube: yes still downloding
[12:48] <adam_> Slart: ok done
[12:48] <checa> hola
[12:49] <leon_lecrin> hola
[12:49] <ferronica> jube: i got 256 Kbps ADSL
[12:49] <tomatierra_> hello dolly
[12:49] <ferronica> jube: what you got???
[12:49] <jube> ferronica, ok
[12:49] <Slart> adam_: ok, in the terminal type "sudo iptables --list"
[12:49] <jube> about the same
[12:49] <checa> hello dolly tu
[12:49] <leon_lecrin> hOLA A LA PEA
[12:49] <Slart> adam_: it will print all rules in the firewall... I've got 3 empty sections.. INPUT, FORWARD and OUTPUT
[12:50] <tomatierra_> que pasa colega deja de dar la lata con tu charla
[12:50] <ferronica> jube: what type os connection you have
[12:50] <dani> hola a todos
[12:50] <tomatierra_> mario toca el cigarrito
[12:50] <IdleOne> !es
[12:50] <soundray> Slart: consider 'sudo invoke-rc.d firestarter stop' before removing
[12:50] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[12:50] <ferronica> jube: sorry ISP
[12:50] <adam_> Slart:  Yep, they look empty for me
[12:50] <jube> ferronica, i think it's the same as you. 256 adsl
[12:50] <bob-aptllc> soundray - what would 'tail -f /var/log/syslog' do? It is a Windows guest. Should I run that at the command prompt?
[12:50] <checa> vete a hechar humo
[12:50] <Slart> soundray: ah.. thought the uninstall did that.. thanks
[12:50] <ferronica> jube: lol
[12:50] <`davo> hello
[12:51] <soundray> bob-aptllc: no, I was assuming a Linux guest
[12:51] <ferronica> jube: what is your location???
[12:51] <Slart> adam_: then you should be clear.. try wow again.. see if it's better
[12:51] <leon_lecrin> #ubuntu-es
[12:51] <jube> ferronica, i'm in taiwan
[12:51] <jube> u?
[12:51] <tomatierra_> necesito salir de esta clase
[12:51] <`davo> where can I find a list of supported networking hardware for ubuntu?
[12:51] <adam_> Slart: TY! :)
[12:51] <soundray> Slart: it does, but if the result is somehow unexpected, you don't have to reinstall firestarter
[12:51] <checa> jejejejejeje
[12:51] <ferronica> jube: i am in singapore
[12:51] <bob-aptllc> soundray: I am using a Linux host (Edgy) with W2K as the guest.
[12:51] <jube> not too far
[12:51] <tomatierra_> i am in durcal spain
[12:52] <ferronica> jube: have you played this Game???
[12:52] <Slart> soundray: what's the difference from doing a "sudo /etc/init.d/firestarter stop" and what you wrote?
[12:52] <kghunt> my questions are twofold :-)
[12:52] <jube> yup, but i'm not that good at it yet
[12:52] <Slart> adam_: it worked?
[12:52] <soundray> Slart: none ;)  fewer slashes, which are awkward to type
[12:52] <checa> vete a fumar
[12:52] <jube> it seems pretty high quality to me
[12:52] <ferronica> jube: this game is 3D
[12:52] <jube> good for a free game
[12:52] <soundray> Slart: on some keyboards at least
[12:52] <adam_> Slart - So far, it says 'No problems detected' :)
[12:52] <Slart> soundray: damn linux and it's flexibility =)
[12:53] <ferronica> jube: pretty high quality in what manner???
[12:53] <jube> ferronica. yup it's similiar to doom, or quake etc
[12:53] <Slart> adam_: nice
[12:53] <ferronica> jube: ok
[12:53] <kghunt> I have an error in my xorg.conf file and ubuntu will not boot. Can I edit it from the root in recovery mode?
[12:54] <ferronica> jube: Will my graphic card run it properly
[12:54] <jube> ferronica, multiplayer with other people online
[12:54] <jube> yup
[12:54] <afief> kghunt: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:54] <Slart> kghunt: can't think of a reason why you shouldn't be able to
[12:54] <jube> i use the nvidia fx 5200 and it works fine
[12:54] <soundray> bob-aptllc: I can't really help in that case. You might run 'tail -f /var/log/syslog' in the host system and follow general troubleshooting procedures in W2K
[12:54] <ferronica> jube: i have Fx 5200 do i need to install driver for it
[12:54] <jube> if you type "glxgears" in the terminal does anything happen?
[12:54] <ferronica> jube: you too have the smae card
[12:54] <bob-aptllc> soundray: Thanks!
[12:54] <afief> ferronica: wiki.ubuntu.com there is a great guide there
[12:55] <ferronica> jube: have you installed any driver for your card
[12:55] <kghunt> what game are you talking about?
[12:55] <jube> ferronica, you can test your video card by typing glxgears
[12:55] <jube> let it run for a while and see what your frame rate is
[12:55] <jube> it should be greater than 1000 and then you're fine I thnk
[12:56] <shaffox> what is the easiest way for upgrading to Feisty ?
[12:56] <ferronica> jube: Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[12:56] <ferronica> Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual
[12:56] <Slart> shaffox: there is some info on the ubuntu site
[12:56] <soundray> shaffox: feisty is not ready yet. Ask in #ubuntu+1
[12:56] <shaffox> !ubuntu
[12:56] <ferronica> jube: what all  these
[12:56] <ubotu> Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuHowCome
[12:56] <jube> ferronica, ok, that means you need to install the nvidia driver
[12:56] <jube> i thought you might have already done it
[12:57] <afief> shaffox: change all the "dapper" in your sources.list(repositories) file to "feisty" and run apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade. If the system fails it's your own responsibility though
[12:57] <soundray> kghunt: tremulous
[12:57] <shaffox> afief: i have edgy
[12:57] <kghunt> how can i view my ext2 file system in vista?
[12:57] <ferronica> jube: i have cd that i got with my graphic card will it work
[12:57] <Slart> Tremulous is sweet
[12:57] <soundray> kghunt: install ext2fsd
[12:57] <afief> shaffox, then change "edgy" to "feisty", sorry about the typo
[12:57] <jube> slart, yup I agree. tremulous is cool
[12:57] <shaffox> afief: i was just kidding ;)
[12:57] <jube> ferronica, i doubt it will work. probably for windows only
[12:58] <Slart> kghunt: I don't know if this works in vista.. but it works in xp and w2000.. there is a small program.. google for ext2 windows or something like that.. very easy.. works great
[12:58] <jube> but you can install the nvidia driver from apt-get
[12:58] <ferronica> jube: ya for windows
[12:58] <Slart> kghunt: I'll see if I can remember the name of the software
[12:58] <soundray> shaffox: you can't upgrade to feisty direct from edgy.
[12:58] <afief> shaffox: NP, you do know that you will most likely run into some trouble after the upgrade right?
[12:58] <ferronica> jube: but i didnt faced any problem with my card from 1 week
[12:58] <CheshireViking> ferronica, there is a script for installing the nvidia driver that seems to work pretty well called "envy"
[12:58] <ferronica> jube: like in window we have to install driver
[12:58] <afief> Where is the module configuration saved? I need to hand edit some ndsiwrapper configuration
[12:59] <CheshireViking> !envy | ferronica
[12:59] <ubotu> ferronica: 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
[12:59] <jube> ferronica, ubuntu will work fine even without the nvidia driver for basic functions like the desktop etc
[12:59] <Slart> kghunt: http://www.fs-driver.org/
[12:59] <ferronica> jube: ok
[12:59] <jube> but if you want a high frame rate for games then you need the driver
[12:59] <ferronica> jube: you have the same card that i have right
[01:00] <ferronica> jube: have you installed the driver
[01:00] <jube> yup, fx 5200.  hold on I'll see how to install the driver in dapper
[01:00] <shaffox> afief: but there are people already on feisty, how did they do it then ? there aren't any feisty cd's available i guess ?
[01:00] <soundray> kghunt: I tried ext2ifs (fs-driver) and ext2fsd and prefer the latter
[01:00] <Toma-> shaffox: feisty is in testing. its easy to get, but also easy to destroy your PC with
[01:00] <tomatierra_> colegas me marcho, ha sidi un placer
[01:00] <ferronica> jube: then no problem tell me how you installed your driver for Nvidia Fx 5200
[01:01] <afief> shaffox: those are beta testers. They know what they are dealing with and don't mind their system breaking. There are CDs on the ubuntu website somewhere, but for upgrading do what i mentioned above
[01:01] <jube> ferronica, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Latest_Nvidia_Dapper
[01:01] <jube> that page tells you how to install it
[01:01] <soundray> shaffox: there are install CDs available for download. Go to #ubuntu+1 and read the topic
[01:01] <jube> I used method 1
[01:02] <ferronica> jube: ok opened
[01:02] <adx> does ubuntu have sshd?
[01:02] <soundray> adx: yes
[01:02] <takesinn> Hello everyone
[01:02] <afief> Where is the module configuration saved? I need to hand edit some ndsiwrapper configuration
[01:02] <afief> takesinn: hi
[01:02] <adx> soundray: how do i enable it?
[01:02] <soundray> !ssh > adx, please read the private message
[01:03] <takesinn> Does Ubuntu have a gaming desktop? A low resource shell I can log into? Ofcourse it would be brilliant if there was some app that actually shut down KDE and gnome services and such when starting a game and then starting them when the game would finish.
[01:03] <soundray> afief: check in /etc/ndiswrapper and /etc/modprobe.d
[01:03] <Toma-> takesinn: e17 :D
[01:03] <ferronica> jube: i want driver for fx 5200
[01:04] <ferronica> jube: which one to use???
[01:04] <soundray> takesinn: select failsafe from the login screen
[01:04] <Toma-> takesinn: as for something that had gnome+kde services that shut down automagically, no idea.
[01:04] <jube> ferronica, it happens automatically when you type sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[01:04] <takesinn> Will the failsafe turn off any graphical modules or such?
[01:04] <HereBeDragon> Hi, I'm facing some trouble connecting my cellphone to my dapper using a Bluetooth USB dongle. I'm able to detect the phone using 'hcitool scan', but when I try to connect it using 'rfcomm connect 0 AA:BB:CC:DD::EE::FF', I get an error 'Connection Refused'
[01:04] <jube> that will install the latest driver and it will work with fx 5200
[01:04] <soundray> takesinn: no
[01:04] <Toma-> takesinn: yep
[01:04] <soundray> Toma- ?
[01:04] <Toma-> failsafe terminal?
[01:04] <HereBeDragon> Any suggestions on fixing the bluetooth error will be highly appreciated.
[01:05] <kghunt> whats this game jube?
[01:05] <jube> but you should follow the steps 1-5 for method 1 on that page I sent you
[01:05] <jube> kghunt: tremulous
[01:05] <soundray> Toma-: I think you're talking about recovery mode, not failsafe
[01:05] <takesinn> I'm confused here guys ^^;;
[01:05] <jube> http://www.tremulous.net/
[01:05] <takesinn> is "Failsafe" only "xterm" as the desktop shell or is it a whole failsafe environment?
[01:05] <Toma-> takesinn: what "failsafe" are you talking about?
[01:05] <takesinn> On login
[01:05] <takesinn> through GDM ^;;
[01:05] <soundray> takesinn: try failsafe from the gdm window, you can run your games in it
[01:05] <takesinn> ^^;;*
[01:06] <soundray> Toma-: there is only one failsafe (takesinn)
[01:06] <zach634> What is the best media player for linux?
[01:06] <Stallo> Does anyone know how to configure different wlan interfaces for example "HOME", "WORK", "Friends_house" without changing the parameters in etc/network/interfaces all the time? Tried finding info on the net but without any good results...
[01:06] <ferronica> jube: when i typed " apt-get install nvidia-glx" error
[01:06] <takesinn> I though so to, Soundray
[01:06] <Toma-> soundray: ok well i have failsafe gnome and failsafe terminal
[01:06] <ferronica> jube: E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[01:06] <ferronica> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
[01:06] <gordonjcp> ferronica: and are you root?
[01:06] <Toma-> maybe its a residual config from an upgrade
[01:06] <afief> takesinn: even better would be brewing your own little gaming setup with only X server and stuff running, but i guess it's a bit extreme
[01:06] <soundray> Toma-: okay, but none of them disables any graphics capabilities (takesinn)
[01:06] <takesinn> Is there a command to shutdown gnome but still not log out of X?
[01:06] <jube> ferronica, you need sudo in front
[01:06] <zach634> ferronica: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[01:06] <takesinn> soundray: good ^;;
[01:07] <jube> sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx
[01:07] <Toma-> i still dont know what hes talking about anyway
[01:07] <afief> soundray: thanks:) found the file i needed:) wireless working again
[01:07] <jube> ferronica, then you enter your password
[01:07] <soundray> takesinn: you can use 'switch user' but login with the same name
[01:07] <ferronica> jube: nvidia-glx is already the newest version.
[01:07] <jube> ok
[01:07] <coxande> anybody knows a program to talk (chat only) with skype ?
[01:07] <jube> sudo nvidia-xconfig
[01:07] <ferronica> jube:  It worked now
[01:07] <jube> glxgears?
[01:07] <ferronica> jube:  But ^
[01:07] <soundray> takesinn: better yet, create an extra user for gaming and configure a tailored session
[01:07] <humbolto> How can I execute a script whenever I insert one specific USB jumpdrive?
[01:07] <takesinn> I want to create a little feature that turns of excessive desktop features from gnome and KDE to prioritize the resources for gaming. I think it would be a nice feature for n00b users ^
[01:08] <bullgard4> Are there advantages to use hwinfo compared with lshw?
[01:08] <Toma-> takesinn: youll need to start an X session with nothing but your game running, if you really want to pump out fps
[01:08] <Toma-> imho anyway
[01:09] <jube> Toma, how do you start just an X session and one program?
[01:09] <soundray> coxande: skype is proprietary. You use the skype software or nothing.
[01:09] <ferronica> jube:  then
[01:09] <Toma-> jube: its in the X command line options
[01:09] <takesinn> Whats the easiest way to create GTK+ applications?
[01:09] <jube> toma, ok... I'll check that out
[01:09] <takesinn> I mean theres bound to be some GUI app out there that allows me to drag, point, click, and learn at the same time ^^;;
[01:10] <jube> ferronica, then type: sudo nvidia-xconfig
[01:10] <soundray> takesinn: nothing easier than zenity ;)
[01:10] <takesinn> kk
[01:10] <coxande> soundray: thx man, i not like that software i need only text chat, but hxk any way
[01:10] <HereBeDragon> "Can't connect RFCOMM socket: Connection refused"  <[01:10] <coxande> thx
[01:10] <afief> takesinn: Glade
[01:10] <ferronica> jube:  then
[01:10] <Toma-> jube: actually, i think itll be something like 'Xorg & DISPLAY=:0 gameexecutable'
[01:10] <ferronica> jube:  got meassge
[01:10] <ferronica> jube: Using X configuration file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf".
[01:10] <ferronica> Backed up file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' as '/etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup'
[01:10] <ferronica> New X configuration file written to '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'
[01:10] <jube> ferronica, then type: glxgears
[01:10] <soundray> coxande: neither do I, but since it's not libre, we're stuck with it.
[01:11] <jube> ferronica, oh, actually, I think you will need to reboot your computer to use the new driver
[01:11] <jube> did the download finish yet?
[01:11] <coxande> soundray: thx man !
[01:11] <ferronica> jube:  Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[01:11] <ferronica> Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual
[01:11] <jube> ferronica, that's because you need to reboot
[01:11] <tomatierra_> hola bolcheviques
[01:11] <ferronica> jube:  but i didnt installed anything
[01:11] <afief> jube: shouldn't restarting X do the job?
[01:12] <jube> ferronica, what is the output when you type this: cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf |grep Driver
[01:12] <ferronica> jube: Is everything already installed
[01:12] <ferronica> jube: let me type it
[01:12] <ravi_master> hey guys, where do I put my password for my nick in ChatZilla?
[01:12] <Stallo> Anyone with experience of managing wlan interfaces in bash?
[01:13] <soundray> !elaborate | Stallo
[01:13] <ubotu> Stallo: Please elaborate, your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel)
[01:13] <afief> Stallo: a little bit
[01:13] <prospero31> Morning Ubuntu Types!
[01:13] <afief> prospero31: it's afternoon here:) but hi
[01:13] <ferronica> jube: i think i have to use paste bin
[01:14] <ferronica> jube: Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[01:14] <ferronica> jube: Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual
[01:14] <ravi_master> please, I really need to know about whre I put in my password for my handle so I can be identified, where do I do it in ChatZilla?
[01:14] <jube> ferronica, try copy and pasting this: cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf |grep Driver
[01:14] <ferronica>  Driver         "kbd"
[01:14] <ferronica>     Driver         "mouse"
[01:14] <ferronica>     Driver         "wacom"
[01:14] <ferronica>     Driver         "wacom"
[01:14] <ferronica>     Driver         "wacom"
[01:14] <ferronica>     Driver         "nvidia"
[01:14] <jube> ferronica, ok, I think it is installed and configured now
[01:15] <jube> ferronica, you just need to wait for the download to finish and then reboot
[01:15] <ferronica> jube: but i didnt installed anything lol
[01:15] <ravi_master> where do I need to go to get my information about ChatZilla?
[01:15] <jube> ferronica, actually, you did when you typed sudo nvidia-xconfig
[01:15] <ravi_master> bah..
[01:15] <soundray> ravi_master: if nobody replies, it means that nobody knows
[01:15] <jube> ferronica, that command configures the xorg to use the nvidia driver
[01:16] <soundray> ravi_master: try again in a while when other people have logged on
[01:16] <ferronica> jube: okay
[01:16] <Stallo> Ok, I'm supern00b to Linux but lovin' it so long... I've got my wlan working on the laptop and all, but everytime I need to switch networks (from school, to home, to other wlans) I have to change the parameters in /etc/network/interfaces and then restart the interface. I was wondering if there is a way to have some default configurations for the most common networks I use?
[01:16] <ravi_master> soundray: ok
[01:16] <jube> ferronica, actually you can isntall the game first if you want
[01:16] <jube> is the download done?
[01:16] <ferronica> jube: its 81% completed
[01:16] <sipior> Stallo: try installing gnome-network-manager?
[01:16] <soundray> ravi_master: in the meantime, consider searching the web or the docs
[01:16] <jube> ferronica, oh ok... quite slow actually
[01:17] <jube> mine was much faster from taiwan :)
[01:17] <j0sh0> can someone help me with DNS issues I'm having - when I use apt-get sometimes it gets the ip address as 1.0.0.0, however if i manually ping the repo address it usually get the right IP and then apt-get will work
[01:17] <Stallo> sipior, thanks! but is there a way to go with bash?
[01:17] <soundray> ravi_master: e.g. /usr/share/doc/mozilla-chatzilla/
[01:17] <Stallo> I like hardcore terminals... =)
[01:17] <ferronica> jube: you have tooooo same connection, how much time it will take in your computer to download
[01:17] <sipior> Stallo: might be. you could always whip up a shell script that allows you to pick between various pre-configured networks
[01:18] <jube> i think that file came very fast because the mirror is also in taiwan
[01:18] <jube> 10 minutes at most
[01:18] <Smotang> If I have a process running in terminal 1 and then I switch to terminal 7 (ubuntu GUI) will the process in terminal 1 still continue running?
[01:18] <thoreauputic> Smotang: yes
[01:18] <ferronica> jube: what 10 miniutes
[01:18] <Stallo> sipior: Yeah, I was looking into scripting yesterday. =) Just thought there might be an easier way....
[01:18] <Smotang> thoreauputic: will it run at normal speed or slower because I switched?
[01:18] <ravi_master> Anyone here know how to identify a nick automatically using ChatZilla?
[01:18] <soundray> Stallo: there is a way to map interface configurations based on where you are.
[01:19] <ferronica> jube: i cant belive, have you ever used torrents??????
[01:19] <sipior> Stallo: well, with bash, that's pretty much what you're left with. you might try googling for bash and networl config or something
[01:19] <thoreauputic> Smotang: won't make any significant difference - X is alreadsy runnning on vt 7
[01:19] <Stallo> soundray: Oooh! Tell me!!! =)
[01:19] <soundray> !info whereami | Stallo, just an example, haven't tried
[01:19] <ubotu> stallo, just an example, haven't tried: whereami: Automatically reconfigure your (laptop) system for a new location. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.3.28ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 62 kB, installed size 424 kB
[01:19] <jube> ferronica, actually i think my connection is 2MB/256k
[01:19] <ravi_master> Stallo: in fact, there are already plenty of these scripts around, google for em
[01:19] <jube> so maybe faster than yours
[01:19] <sipior> hey, there you go
[01:19] <ferronica> jube: Ok
[01:20] <Smotang> thoreauputic: Thanks so much for answering all my newbie questions
[01:20] <soundray> Stallo: also, 'man interfaces' and look at the mapping examples
[01:20] <thoreauputic> Smotang: you're welcome :)
[01:20] <badatt> hi all, the 'more' command doesn't work, it stops after displaying a single page, it doesn't ask for --More-- , how can i solve?
[01:21] <sipior> badatt: use "less" :-)
[01:21] <jube> badatt, maybe you can try using "less" instead of "more" ?
[01:21] <ravi_master> Anyone know how to identify a nick with password in ChatZilla?
[01:21] <ferronica> jube: what command do i use to make sure graphic card driver is installed???
[01:21] <ravi_master> less is > more
[01:21] <jube> ferronica: glxgears
[01:21] <sipior> badatt: your terminal might be messed up as well: try "stty sane" and see if that doesn't right things
[01:21] <jube> ferronica, it should show a moving picture on your screen and show you frames per second in the terminal
[01:22] <jube> ferronica, it should be >1000fps
[01:22] <darren> hi all
[01:22] <ferronica> jube: but right now it showing me errors
[01:22] <soundray> badatt: also, try hitting space to see if it scrolls in spite of the missing message
[01:22] <badatt> less works, but it doesnt fix 'more'
[01:22] <darren> does ne1 here have the linuxmce installer to hand. their website is down
[01:22] <jube> ferronica, i think that is because the driver is not loaded - you need to reboot but wait for the download to finish first
[01:22] <badatt> ok ill try 'stty sane'
[01:22] <ferronica> jube: Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[01:22] <ferronica> Error: couldn't get an RGB, Double-buffered visual
[01:22] <ferronica> jube: Ok
[01:23] <ravi_master> Anyone know how to identify a nick with password in ChatZilla?
[01:23] <ferronica> jube: If i rebooted after that it showed me same error then???
[01:23] <badatt> soundray, thanks for you answers, but it returns to the prompt after showing a page
[01:23] <froydinn> hey anybody had problems with intel 3945 abg wireless ?
[01:23] <badatt> in example: ' ls -R / | more '
[01:23] <froydinn> mine is not working
[01:23] <centrodia> hola
[01:23] <badatt> just displays a page and then the bash prmpt
[01:24] <soundray> badatt: what happens when you do 'ls -R / | less'?
[01:24] <jube> ferronica, if you still get that same error, then you should try following all the steps 1-5 very closely on that nvidia page I sent you
[01:24] <ferronica> jube: do you know how much i liked ubuntu
[01:24] <thoreauputic> badatt: what do you have set in  sudo update-alternatives --config pager ?
[01:24] <darren> anyone?
[01:24] <badatt> soundray, it works
[01:24] <ferronica> jube: i buyed cooler master Cabinet for my ubuntu
[01:24] <thoreauputic> badatt: just use less - it's better than more anyway
[01:25] <soundray> badatt: listen to thoreauputic -- set it to less, preferrably
[01:25] <j0sh0> why, when i do "apt-get update" do i get some errors saying "Err ... 410 Gone"????
[01:25] <sipior> yeah, even the man page for more says "use less" :-)
[01:25] <sipior> that's a great endorsement
[01:25] <badatt> yeah, i know less is better but it doesnt fix 'more', ill promise to use less from now on, but i just wanna now what happens to 'more'
[01:26] <ferronica> jube: ok tell me how to register myself on freenode to chat in private
[01:26] <jube> ferronica, yup, ubuntu is pretty cool. i use it almost all the time
[01:26] <sipior> badatt: try running it under strace and see what it spits out when you press return the first time
[01:26] <soundray> badatt: I suppose it's just there for compatibility
[01:26] <ferronica> jube: bcoz when i pm someone he wont able to see messages
[01:26] <jube> ferronica, i'm not actually sure how to chat in private
[01:26] <jube> have not done that before on here
[01:26] <badatt> strace? can you tell me more about that?
[01:26] <froydinn> how do i see what drivers my wireless is using ???
[01:26] <thoreauputic> badatt: nasty hack workaround - symlink less to more ;p
[01:26] <davidelv_> What would be the reason for Apple, not to release a Linux version of iTunes?
[01:27] <jube> ferronica, i just right clicked your name and sent you a PM. did you get it?
[01:27] <sipior> badatt: try "strace more blah" and it should spit out system calls made by the application
[01:27] <jube> if not, I'm not sure how PM works
[01:27] <ferronica> jube: nothing
[01:27] <sipior> badatt: if the app is crashing, it might give some clue as to why
[01:27] <Sp0cK> Hello
[01:27] <jube> ferronica, what program are you using to chat in here?
[01:27] <Sp0cK> any chances for some help here :) ?
[01:27] <sipior> badatt: maybe some config file is damaged? although that seems unlikely in this case
[01:27] <badatt> thanks, i'll try it as soon as i get access to the machine
[01:28] <gaaf> hi all, is there a nice GUI-olution for recoding videos to MP4 (PSP-format) ?
[01:28] <ferronica> jube: GAIM
[01:28] <soundray> badatt: also, check the output from " ls -l $(which more)". Here it's -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 32256 2006-10-12 16:47 /bin/more (and my "more" works as expected)
[01:28] <ferronica> jube: thats it
[01:28] <jube> ferronica, ok. me too
[01:28] <jube> gaim
[01:28] <ferronica> jube: Is there anything better then this
[01:28] <jube> probably
[01:28] <jube> haha, but i just use gaim. works fine for me and I like the font
[01:28] <badatt> also i have to tell that i tried to replace more with another bin/more from otrher server
[01:28] <badatt> with n result
[01:28] <ferronica> jube: i like it tooo
[01:28] <Sp0cK> [HelpRequest]  I have disk driver with prioprietary RAID driver - how to load it when I'm installing system. Without it there is no disks
[01:29] <ferronica> jube: its not bad
[01:29] <Sp0cK> replacement for RedHat linux dd
[01:29] <ferronica> jube: can you ask some one how PM works here
[01:29] <badatt> more uses (ldd more) libncurses and other basic libs
[01:29] <sipior> SpocK: that generally requires messing with the initrd
[01:29] <Sp0cK> sipior: ??
[01:29] <jube> ferronica, i think you just did :)
[01:29] <ferronica> jube: there i can send you the screen shot
[01:29] <CheshireViking> jube, it could depend if ferronica is registered with Freenode, i think you have to be registered to send/recieve pm's unless they're from ubotu, also there was a comment that they were switched off recently because of spam
[01:29] <soundray> badatt: to revert to the ubuntu version, run 'sudo apt-get --reinstall install util-linux'
[01:29] <sipior> SpocK: i'll see if i can find a pointer, but perhaps it's best to boot from a small normal disk, and avoid the trouble?
[01:29] <Sp0cK> sipior: there isn't some argument to as fot driver disk ?
[01:30] <jube> viking, ok. that would explain it
[01:30] <Sp0cK> yes but it require another controller
[01:30] <Smotang> With the dd command is there any way other than noerror to skip bad sectors/blocks? ie i have a group of blocks that dd wont skip over at the moment and I was wondering whether or not there is a way to force it to after it tries like say 3 times or something?
[01:30] <Sp0cK> raid controler is from LSI
[01:30] <Sp0cK> driver name megasrc.ko
[01:30] <Sp0cK> megasr.ko
[01:30] <badatt> thanks for your interest soundray sipior and all, i'll try the commands when i get home, thank you,
[01:30] <ferronica> jube: So what to do to register
[01:31] <jube> ferronica, did you see what cheshireviking said? the PM might be shut off right now due to spam...
[01:31] <ferronica> CheshireViking: from where to register
[01:31] <CheshireViking> !register
[01:31] <jube> ferronica, i didn't register with freenode either
[01:31] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[01:31] <ferronica> jube: Lets try to register
[01:32] <soundray> jube, ferronica: you could just use #ubuntu-classroom if it's free
[01:32] <Sp0cK> I'also try to remove all modules copy close driver to /lib/modules and load it but ..
[01:32] <Sp0cK> there is no "rmmod" command :(
[01:32] <Sp0cK> inside installer
[01:32] <Sp0cK> :(
[01:32] <Smotang> With the dd command is there any way other than noerror to skip bad sectors/blocks? ie i have a group of blocks that dd wont skip over at the moment and I was wondering whether or not there is a way to force it to after it tries like say 3 times or something?
[01:32] <jube> ferronica, i just got a PM from Cheshireviking
[01:32] <jube> so seems like they are working ok
[01:32] <Crazytom> what is the status of fiesty?
[01:33] <ferronica> jube: really
[01:33] <soundray> Smotang: there's no point repeating the question at short intervals if nobody knows the answer
[01:33] <adx>  how do i open port 22 for my sshd to work?
[01:33] <ravi_master> ah, got it
[01:33] <ravi_master> wohooo
[01:33] <ferronica> jube: are you registered
[01:33] <soundray> Crazytom: join #ubuntu+1 and read the topic
[01:33] <ravi_master> adx, through your router
[01:33] <jube> ferronica, maybe there is a tab at the top for my PM?
[01:33] <soundray> Crazytom: testing help is much appreciated
[01:33] <thoreauputic> adx: instal openssh-server
[01:33] <prospero31> what is the purpose of /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common ?
[01:33] <jube> ferronica, can you see it?
[01:33] <adx> ravi_master: no i mean the iptables command
[01:33] <Crazytom> I tried upgrading to it and it didn't work
[01:33] <thoreauputic> adx: it should just start - or do you mean port forwarding?
[01:34] <sipior> SpocK: try looking here: http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-mini/Boot+Root+Raid+LILO.html
[01:34] <ferronica> jube: I too got message from viking
[01:34] <soundray> Crazytom: it's beta. It's expected to be buggy. Please join #ubuntu+1
[01:34] <sipior> SpocK: mostly for software raid, but it might help you out
[01:34] <Vorian> Crazytom, if you have feisty questions go to #ubuntu+1
[01:34] <jube> ferronica, but you can't see mine?
[01:34] <adx> thoreauputic: i did that, but when i try to connect to it, it doesn't respond
[01:34] <Vorian> hehe soundray :)
[01:34] <Smotang> soundray: sorry
[01:34] <ferronica> jube: Okay
[01:34] <ravi_master> iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -j sshguard
[01:35] <ferronica> jube: Lets register
[01:35] <adx> thoreauputic, maybe i mean port forwarding. how do i do this?
[01:35] <ravi_master> I'd use sshguard from this guide
[01:35] <ravi_master> http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=07/02/27/1957242
[01:35] <sipior> SpocK: or here: http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_software_raid
[01:35] <thoreauputic> adx: in your router usually - depends on the model
[01:35] <NaPsTeR> hi...is there an equivalent of Windows Movie Maker for Linux?
[01:35] <CheshireViking> jube, ferronica are either of you able to reply to my PM's? i've not had anything come through apart from whats on this ubuntu room? Might mean you need to reigister to be able to send PM's
[01:36] <jube> CheshireViking, I got your PM and replied... so I guess the problem is registration
[01:36] <Kaso> Could some remind  me how to use mke2fs to work out the locations of superblocks on your drive
[01:36] <ravi_master> You don't need more problems than solutions, use sshguard when you are doing this to the outside world (internet). If not, just do the command I gave you without the -j sshguard
[01:36] <ferronica> CheshireViking: i replied to you
[01:36] <NaPsTeR> ??
[01:36] <ravi_master> adx: got it?
[01:36] <soundray> Smotang: spend some time with 'man dd'. I guess you have to skip or seek into the file, creating several partial copies and reassemble them with cat
[01:36] <ferronica> CheshireViking: you are right we have to register
[01:36] <thoreauputic> adx: the iptables rule would look something like this to allow ssh:  iptables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
[01:37] <adx> ravi_master: i'm trying, i'm telling another guy to execute it
[01:37] <CheshireViking> jube, ferronica, I didn't get either reply - i'll go back to lurking while you register etc - good luck getting everything working
[01:37] <ravi_master> adx: ah, k, use that guide link I gave you if its to the internet, if not use what Thoreauputic just typed.
[01:37] <topato> hello, I've setup a ubuntu installation to act as a server in our development environment. the server responds quickly to pings and regular http requests, but subversion through apache and ssh/scp is terribly slow. any suggestions on an entry point for troubleshooting?
[01:37] <Smotang> soundray how do I seek into the file?
[01:38] <soundray> Smotang: man dd
[01:38] <NaPsTeR> is there a Movie maker for linux
[01:38] <ravi_master> topato, can you check for rx or tx errors in ifconfig?
[01:38] <NaPsTeR> i want 2 combine a few clips into 1
[01:38] <NaPsTeR> how can i?
[01:38] <ravi_master> napster kino
[01:38] <soundray> NaPsTeR: no, there is kino and cinelerra
[01:38] <whatspy> good morning, I have a question: at ubuntu console login, is there a way to log directly into an SSH session? when I know I'm not going to use the local resources at all, I merely use the machine as a ssh terminal.
[01:38] <gordonjcp> topato: is it subversion that's slow, or is it ssh that is slow?
[01:38] <topato> topato: both
[01:38] <ferronica> jube: where to register
[01:38] <Smotang> soundray: thanks I cant believe I missed that there :(
[01:38] <ravi_master> topato: check ifconfig for any errors.
[01:39] <topato> ravi_master: no errors found
[01:39] <sipior> whatspy: try ctrl-alt-F1, and then login as normal
[01:39] <soundray> NaPsTeR: have a look at this article though: http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=07/03/15/0321242
[01:39] <jube> ok, i registered
[01:39] <ravi_master> topato: ok. what kind of networking environment are you in? Is this computer just talking to a switch?
[01:39] <adx> it says:
[01:39] <adx> Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.
[01:39] <sipior> whatspy: and then alt-F7 to get back to the gdm prompt
[01:39] <ferronica> jube: where to register
[01:40] <ferronica> jube: i got ur pm
[01:40] <thoreauputic> adx: prepend sudo
[01:40] <topato> ravi_master: it's a computer connected to a small router (netgear) on a class c network
[01:40] <thoreauputic> adx: iptqables requires root privs, obviously
[01:40] <jube> ferronic, here are the instructions:
[01:40] <jube> http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nicksetup
[01:40] <thoreauputic> umm iptables*
[01:40] <ravi_master> topato: ok, and all the other clients are connected to that small router as well?
[01:40] <Smotang> soundray: Yeah that should do the trick, I cant believe that noone has made a gui for this yet O.o I Imagine alot of avid anime sharing fans and the like would be unbelievably hungry for this kind of thing.
[01:41] <topato> ravi_master: yes, most of them through wlan
[01:41] <jube> basically, you just have to type "/msg nickserv register *your_password*
[01:41] <whatspy> sipior: this is not exactly what I'm looking for
[01:41] <soundray> Smotang: feel free :)
[01:41] <sipior> whatspy: in what way?
[01:41] <moonwatcher> ahh...
[01:41] <ravi_master> topat: if that's the case, try setting forth a full duplex 100 mbps auto negotiating connection with ethtool, restart the router, reconfig the network interfaces, and see if the speed improves for you.
[01:41] <moonwatcher> my ubuntu sorta... lost its name
[01:42] <moonwatcher> the computer doesnt have a name, which mean the prompt at the consle is just username@:
[01:42] <thoreauputic> adx: also not my command assumes a default policy of DROP - if you have policy ACCEPT you need to insert rather than append ( -I flag )
[01:42] <thoreauputic> *note
[01:42] <moonwatcher> and ssh tunnels stopped working
[01:42] <moonwatcher> how do i get it back?
[01:42] <soundray> moonwatcher: 'gksudo gedit /etc/hostname' -- enter it there
[01:43] <moonwatcher> indeed it was empty :)
[01:43] <moonwatcher> soundray: will that solve my issues?
[01:43] <ravi_master> topat: you know what to do?
[01:43] <moonwatcher> just enter a name there?
[01:44] <ferronica> jube: Be right back within 20 miniutes
[01:44] <ravi_master> topato: you know what to do?
[01:44] <soundray> moonwatcher: I'm very fond of rebooting after a change like that, but certain people disagree.
[01:44] <ravi_master> topato: sorry I mispelled your nick on the above suggestion, you might not have received a notification.
[01:44] <adx> thoreauputic, i have the default policy, which is it?
[01:44] <topato> ravi_master: I haveto take the small router back -- the server is connected to a jack in the wall .. :O
[01:44] <jube> ferronica, it's starting to get a little late here so to install tremulous just type: sudo sh tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run
[01:45] <thoreauputic> adx: unless you have defined it, it will be ACCEPT
[01:45] <jube> if I'm not here when you get back
[01:45] <moonwatcher> soundray: ill reboot to accommodate you :) btw while we are on the subject, whats the diffrence between 'sudo' and 'gksudo'?
[01:45] <topato> ravi_master: It's even slow if I connect to the server FROM the server through the interface (not loopback)
[01:45] <adx> ok now iptables -L -n shows: ACCEPT  tcp -- 0.0.0.0/0      0.0.0.0/0     state NEW tcp dpt:22
[01:45] <thoreauputic> adx: hang on - a simple URL for iptables.... getting it for you
[01:45] <soundray> moonwatcher: gksudo avoids a rare lockup situation which can occur if you use sudo with a GUI program.
[01:45] <adx> source and destination are incorrect, no?
[01:46] <moonwatcher> oh...
[01:46] <thoreauputic> adx: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo
[01:46] <ravi_master> topato: hmm, might be the the config then, did you check for errors in /var/log/apache2 >
[01:46] <thoreauputic> adx: can't really teach you iptables on IRC in five minutes ;)
[01:47] <adx> thoreauputic, heh you're right
[01:47] <thoreauputic> adx: :)
[01:47] <topato> ravi_master: apache2: Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName
[01:47] <soundray> thoreauputic: too bad. Perhaps you should start an iptables clinic in -classroom at a fixed time
[01:48] <soundray> :)
[01:48] <topato> ravi_master: that's all save some mod_python and svn authentication errors
[01:48] <ravi_master> topato: hope 127.0.1.1 is pingable, should default to 127.0.0.1, wonder why it changed subnet.
[01:48] <Stony> hi
[01:48] <thoreauputic> adx: basically the simplest way is to set INPUT policy to DROP and then append rules for what you want to allow
[01:48] <thoreauputic> adx: including loopback etc
[01:48] <Smotang> cat item1.avi item2.avi endproduct.avi is that the proper syntax for cat?
[01:48] <topato> ravi_master: I can at least ping it :)
[01:48] <thoreauputic> soundray: I'm no iptables expert myself :)
[01:49] <adx> thoreauputic: yes. thank you very much for everything. i think it must be my router blocking it
[01:49] <soundray> Smotang: no, cat item1.avi item2.avi >endproduct.avi
[01:49] <CoRnJuLiOx> can anyone help me recompile my kernel to include a module called xpad_device? i have absolutely no idea how to do that
[01:49] <topato> ravi_master: http://dpaste.com/7128/ output fromifconfig
[01:49] <Farhod> what can be the problem of jumping dvd dev buffer while reading or writing to cd's?
[01:49] <Smotang> soundray: thanks
[01:49] <thoreauputic> adx: yes, that is the most likely explanation
[01:49] <soundray> Smotang: you can cat as many fragments as you like
[01:50] <Farhod> can someone help me with that?
[01:50] <kevor> Hello, my logs are getting so big, my hd is filling up, how can i turn loggin off?
[01:50] <leeto> kevor: use logrotate
[01:50] <kevor> or at least make the logs a certain max size
[01:50] <Smotang> soundray: I think I tried that it just went down one line (its what I would do in windows cmd) does it take a while or is it instant? also using ctrl b (break) is that a bad thing to do all the time in linux?
[01:50] <soundray> Farhod: is that actually a problem or just something that you observe?
[01:50] <ravi_master> topato: you say this is now connected to your network straight through and not an intermediary switch like a router, right?
[01:50] <whatspy> sipior: logging in from tty1 logs me onto the local machine. I'd like this login launch a ssh session instead of a local one
[01:51] <soundray> Smotang: it returns to the prompt when it's done the job
[01:51] <thoreauputic> Smotang: in *nix silence is golden :)
[01:51] <Farhod> soundray its a problem for me=/ because writing to dvd takes more than 1 hour
[01:51] <kevor> leeto: will check, thanks
[01:51] <Smotang> ah excellent thanks
[01:51] <topato> ravi_master: well, we have ethernet outlets every here and there in the office.
[01:51] <thoreauputic> Smotang: if there's a probem it spits out an error
[01:51] <thoreauputic> *problem
[01:51] <sipior> whatspy: then you're stuck, i'm afraid, unless you want to modify /etc/inittab and have it spawn an ssh process at some runlevel
[01:52] <soundray> Farhod: does your drive share its cable with another drive?
[01:52] <Smotang> thoreauputic: so say if I hit ctrl + c half way through will that corrupt my HD?
[01:52] <adorilson> \j# ubuntu-tradutores-br
[01:52] <adorilson> \j #ubuntu-tradutores-br
[01:52] <sipior> whatspy: the overhead of logging in on the console is pretty neglible, though, so i'm curious why this isn't sufficient?
[01:52] <Farhod> soundray I dont know, because I it's laptop
[01:52] <soundray> Farhod: is it /dev/hdb or /dev/hdc?
[01:53] <kevor> leeto: it's only filled with BANDWIDTH_IN and OUT, do you know how to stop those specific msg's?
[01:53] <thoreauputic> Smotang: i haven't followed the whole conversation - Ctrl-C will usually stop the process so it depends what the command is doing whether it is safe or not
[01:53] <IdleOne> adorilson, /j #ubuntu-tradutores-br
[01:53] <ravi_master> topato: of course, ok - now try the first suggestion I gave you. use ethtool to setup a full duplex, 100 mbps connection with autoneg turned off this time
[01:53] <ravi_master> topato: after this, I want you to connect to this server and load some files onto it with ssh.
[01:53] <thoreauputic> Smotang: actually it will usually end the process - stopping it temporarily would be Ctrl-Z
[01:53] <ravi_master> topato: see if the transfer rate has improved
[01:53] <Farhod> soundray it is /dev/hdc
[01:53] <Ind[y] > Can I just partition my disk, copy the filesystem on my hard drive, take the linux kernel, copy it on my hard drive, install a bootloader, and have my Linux system? (no distribution)
[01:54] <topato> ravi_master: aye! reading up on ethtool
[01:54] <soundray> Farhod: that's good, it means it probably has the IDE channel to itself.
[01:54] <ravi_master> topato: while doing that, also give me the output of hostname and hostname --fqdn
[01:54] <soundray> Farhod: not sure whether this helps, but have a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DMA
[01:54] <thoreauputic> Smotang: google   "process control linux " for more info and/or read man signal
[01:55] <moonwatcher> got a host name but ssh tunnels still dont work...:(
[01:55] <topato> ravi_master: threepwood on both
[01:55] <rapha> Hi all!
[01:55] <rapha> Does somebody have experience with the Listen Music Player here?
[01:55] <kghunt> im trying to edit a file in vi :-s
[01:55] <topato> ravi_master: sudo ethtool -s eth1 speed 100 duplex full autoneg off
[01:55] <topato> ravi_master: does that look correct to you?
[01:56] <ravi_master> topato: ok, it shouldn't really matter then but just change the apache.conf file where it says "Servername your.servername.here" to "servername threepwood"
[01:56] <ravi_master> topato: yep
[01:56] <I3ooI3oo> kghunt have fun with that
[01:56] <kevor> I'm getting my logs flooded by BANDWIDTH_IN and BANDWIDTH_OUT messages, where can i stop this?
[01:56] <ravi_master> topato: unless you have an awesome 1gbps network
[01:56] <topato> ravi_master: nopes
[01:56] <moonwatcher> i get: ssh: localhost: Name or service not known
[01:56] <Menasim1> anyone knows esvn?
[01:57] <soundray> moonwatcher: 'sudo apt-get install ssh'
[01:57] <moonwatcher> .ssh/config is exactly as it was..
[01:57] <moonwatcher> ha???
[01:57] <soundray> moonwatcher: sorry, misguided ;)
[01:57] <Smotang> ok last question before I head off to bed: with dd can I retrieve an entire directory and place it inside another directory?
[01:57] <ravi_master> topato: after this is done, restart networking - are you doing all these commands from SSH?
[01:57] <whatspy> sipior: pure curiosity. it isn't much of a burden indeed. I'm barely trying to reproduce the "dumb terminal" behaviour I saw in a factory I used to work in.
[01:57] <topato> ravi_master: yes
[01:57] <soundray> Smotang: I don't think so
[01:58] <Smotang> damn
[01:58] <kghunt> im trying to edit my xorg.conf from the recover terminal what is the easiest way
[01:58] <moonwatcher> soundray: it actually installed something
[01:58] <leeto> kghunt: nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:58] <ravi_master> topato: ok, it will probably go through  but you'll lose your connection. you do sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart &
[01:58] <thoreauputic> Smotang: bedtime reading -> http://tiswww.case.edu/php/chet/bash/bashref.html#SEC87  heheh
[01:58] <moonwatcher> but it didnt solve anything
[01:58] <sipior> kevor: try to figure out what causes the messages :-) is there a daemon name attached?
[01:58] <moonwatcher> i can open ssh connections
[01:58] <WannabeNewbi1> Can anyone tell me how to get the login window to work on my system? When I boot my system it just automatically goes to Gnome, I want to switch over to my fluxbox system but during boot up I get a command line prompt that ask me to login and then I type startx which brings me directly to Gnome. How do I change this so that I can choose my sessions and get the gui for logging in.
[01:58] <moonwatcher> its just that the tunnels defined on .ssh/config dont function
[01:58] <Farhod> soundray when I try to set dma support it says that operation ermited =/
[01:58] <soundray> Smotang: you have to use something like 'for i in /source/* ; do dd if=$i of=/target/$i ; done'
[01:58] <Smotang> how about dd /media/cdrom-1/*.avi /home/smo/            will that work?
[01:58] <Farhod> permited)
[01:59] <jrib> WannabeNewbi1: use gdm, or kdm, or xdm to login
[01:59] <Farhod> not permited
[01:59] <soundray> Farhod: use sudo
[01:59] <Smotang> thanks soundray
[01:59] <thoreauputic> Smotang: use cp -a or cp -R
[01:59] <Farhod> I loged in as root
[01:59] <sipior> whatspy: i see :) well, you're best bet might be messing around with /etc/inittab then, though it may not be possible. still, if i had to try...
[01:59] <WannabeNewbi1> jrib: so when I get the command line to log in, go ahead and log in then type GDM or such?
[02:00] <soundray> Farhod: then it's probably not supported by your hardware.
[02:00] <jrib> WannabeNewbi1: is there a reason you don't have your computer boot straight to GDM?
[02:00] <thoreauputic> Smotang: dd is serious low level stuff - don't use it for routine copying
[02:00] <I3ooI3oo> wannabenewbi1 : Please remember that linux is Case SeNsiTive GDM is not gdm
[02:00] <WannabeNewbi1> jrib: No, it just happens to be that way. How do I change that?
[02:01] <topato> ravi_master: restarted
[02:01] <Farhod> soundray it is suported, while I was using ubuntu everything was ok, but now on gentoo it's problem =/
[02:01] <moonwatcher> soundray: what should i put in that /etc/hostname file? just the computer name? maybe localhost too?
[02:01] <topato> ravi_master: trying to re-establish the ssh connection, but it's still taking time
[02:01] <soundray> Farhod: I mean DMA may not be supported on your hardware
[02:01] <ravi_master> topato: ok, now, are you on a windows client or linux client?
[02:01] <soundray> moonwatcher: hostname only
[02:01] <topato> ravi_master: os x
[02:01] <Zewey> quick poll, does anyone here dislike Evolution? :p
[02:01] <jrib> WannabeNewbi1: well first, check if gdm is installed.  If it is, I *think* 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm' will set it up as automatically starting up again.  If it doesn't then you'll need to use update-rc.d to have it start automatically again
[02:01] <thoreauputic> Zewey: yes :)
[02:02] <ravi_master> topato: hmm, it shouldn't take that long to restart. do you have physical access to this server?
[02:02] <topato> ravi_master: yes, but that is the problem -- sshing in to the box takes ages :)
[02:02] <topato> ravi_master: once im in, everything is dandy
[02:02] <WannabeNewbi1> jrib: thanks for the help, I will try those options that you just gave me and let you know momentarily how it worked...
[02:02] <ravi_master> Zewey: me, use it in the office with exchange but hate the calendar.
[02:02] <yhlfh> hai, does anyone know how to minimize a full screen application?
[02:02] <harry> can I use Amarok to put music onto an iPod?
[02:02] <ravi_master> Zewey: but I don't really "dislike" evolution itself though.
[02:03] <moonwatcher> soundray: ok, i changed localhost with 127.0.0.1 on the .ssh/config file and now its works.... wtf?
[02:03] <Zewey> okay 2... out of 1043. Lesson learnt: irc is probably not the best place to carry out a census :x
[02:03] <moonwatcher> somethign worng with my dns?
[02:03] <moonwatcher> or loopback?
[02:03] <red__> hi, i badly need help :( i screwed up my xorg.conf and now it wont even take me to the login screen properly. it takes me to a terminal similar to ctrl+alt+f1 but i still cant edit it from there, i dont know why.
[02:03] <soundray> moonwatcher: no, something wrong with /etc/hosts
[02:03] <ravi_master> topato: can I also get a pastebin of your /etc/hosts file?
[02:03] <yhlfh> hai, does anyone know how to minimize a full screen application?
[02:03] <red__> btw im using a livecd now
[02:03] <Zano> I got a question.. Will I be able to get Ubuntu to work with a ati x1900xtx?
[02:03] <Zewey> ravi_master: actually i think i made it too strong a word. probably something like, "not preferred" :)
[02:04] <soundray> moonwatcher: first line should be '127.0.0.1       localhost'
[02:04] <froydinn> hey peps how do re-install my networking tools ? something is messed up in there
[02:04] <topato> ravi_master: http://dpaste.com/7129/
[02:04] <moonwatcher> its empty :)
[02:05] <ravi_master> Zewey: I don't really have a preference when it comes to connecting to exchange
[02:05] <mike1> good morning. i'm trying to install nvidia geforce 3700 video card. what does "linux-restricted-modules-'uname -r' mean ?
[02:05] <rever> Hi, I am trying to install Ubuntu but the LiveCd does not log in automatically. WHat is the username and password?
[02:05] <moonwatcher> well kind of, its got one commented line: # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
[02:05] <moonwatcher> and a line break
[02:05] <Zewey> yhlfh: Alt-F8/F9... depending on your keyboard shortcut mappings?
[02:05] <I3ooI3oo> rever it should
[02:05] <soundray> yhlfh: it varies
[02:05] <froydinn> mike1: Do you know envy ?
[02:05] <froydinn> !envy
[02:05] <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
[02:05] <rever> I3ooI3oo, I agree but ut does not autolog in.
[02:06] <soundray> yhlfh: most of them you have to put back in a window first, usually with F11
[02:06] <yhlfh> Zewey: kde default setting, how?
[02:06] <mike1> froydinn: tried downloading it last night, the link to the .deb didnt work.
[02:06] <jrib> rever: the username is "ubuntu", the password is blank
[02:06] <froydinn> mike1: hold on
[02:06] <I3ooI3oo> there is no passwd, as you can sudo and such with out one
[02:06] <Zewey> ravi_master: you know, actually that's a good point :)
[02:07] <yhlfh> soundray: like some games, like et, they don't have window mode, how to minimize them?
[02:07] <Zewey> yhlfh: sorry... Gnome user here so i can't say. Anyone else might know? :x
[02:07] <rever> jrib, thanks looks like a bad burn i guess. did not work
[02:07] <ravi_master> Zewey: yeah, either I use evolution or I use zilch (windows)
[02:07] <mike1> froydinn: its back up
[02:07] <moonwatcher> soundray: ok, tunnels work :)
[02:07] <jrib> rever: did you verify the cd?
[02:07] <yhlfh> Zewey: how to minimize them in GNOME?
[02:07] <rever> jrib, yes
[02:07] <moonwatcher> soundray: thanks :)
[02:07] <froydinn> mike1: Cool
[02:07] <zach634> allright guys, here's a question.  Any 3d program I try to use is extremely slow.  I.E. ut2004, google earth.  all have really low fps.  I have the nvidia drivers installed along with beryl.  any suggestions?
[02:08] <froydinn> mike1:  its the best way to go
[02:08] <mike1> froydinn: cheers
[02:08] <Zewey> yhlfh: i have Alt-F9, which i hope was not a custom keyboard shortcut. try it out and see
[02:08] <soundray> yhlfh: most games can't be minimized. You can run them in a separate X server (System-Quit-Switch User), then you can switch back and forth with Ctrl-Alt-F7/F8/F9
[02:08] <froydinn> zach634: Do u have ur latest nvidia drivers ?
[02:08] <zach634> froydinn: yah
[02:09] <thoreauputic> yhlfh: Alt-F9 to minimise in gnome - see System = Prefs - Keyboard Shortcuts
[02:09] <zach634> if i turn off beryl, they work fine though.  how can i fix it so that I may use beryl and these 3d apps
[02:10] <kleftisx> how can i open .zip files under ubuntu???
[02:10] <kzm> unzip
[02:10] <soundray> kleftisx: with unzip
[02:10] <thoreauputic> kleftisx: unzip <file>
[02:10] <yhlfh> soundray: you mean run multiple X? that might be very tough experience
[02:10] <thoreauputic> kleftisx: or use file-roller
[02:10] <soundray> yhlfh: not at all
[02:10] <c1ru> hi all
[02:11] <ravi_master> taputo: holy crud, I just saw your hosts file
[02:11] <c1ru> anyone know any program for format my sd ?
[02:11] <ravi_master> taputo: you're getting the old reverse dns timeout problem my man
[02:11] <kleftisx> thoreauputic: what is file roller?
[02:11] <c1ru> apologize about my english
[02:11] <ravi_master> taputo: yt?
[02:11] <thoreauputic> kleftisx: the default archiver for gnome
[02:11] <soundray> c1ru: gparted
[02:11] <yhlfh> soundray: thx, I'll try
[02:11] <thoreauputic> kleftisx: you will probably find that clicking a .zip file will open it
[02:12] <jrib> kleftisx: it opens when you double click on the zip file.  You can also right click and go to "extract here"
[02:12] <c1ru> soundray, i try it with gparted but cant find my sd
[02:12] <clust> Hi, is there any web based developer to-do list under ubuntu?
[02:12] <kleftisx> thoreauputic: i have try it but...no extract here or smth simmilar exists
[02:12] <sipior> whatspy: sorry, forgot ubuntu had moved to Upstart instead of sysinitv. the files you'll want to play with are in /etc/event.d
[02:12] <c1ru> only my two hard drives
[02:12] <thoreauputic> kleftisx: are you using gnome?
[02:12] <soundray> c1ru: is your card reader built in?
[02:12] <kleftisx> thoreauputic: yes
[02:12] <soundray> c1ru: or on USB?
[02:13] <thoreauputic> kleftisx: waht happens if you type   file-roller   in a terminal ?
[02:13] <c1ru> card reader on my laptop
[02:13] <ravi_master> taputo: "threepwood 192.168.1.204" put that in /etc/hosts, delete the line which says "127.0.1.1 threepwood"
[02:13] <kleftisx> thoreauputic: it opens Archive Manager
[02:13] <c1ru> i can see another sd but that have any problems
[02:13] <froydinn> is there a way to reinstall System -> Administration -> Networking and Network tools ????
[02:13] <red__> is there any way to edit xorg.conf from a live cd?
[02:14] <jrib> red__: same as usual, use a text editor
[02:14] <soundray> c1ru: some of these aren't supported yet. Open a terminal, run 'tail -f /var/log/syslog', insert the card and see if any errors are logged. Paste them on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org if you need us to have a look at them.
[02:14] <thoreauputic> kleftisx: OK - that's right - check right-click - properties - popen with for a .zip file in nautilus ( file manager)
[02:14] <ravi_master> topato: damn there I go again with misspelling your handle, yt?
[02:14] <thoreauputic> kleftisx: if it doesn't say "file roller" or "archive manager" - change it to that
[02:15] <red__> it opens my live cd xorg.conf but i need to edit the xorg.conf on my hd because i busted it :/
[02:15] <Zewey> froydinn: did you accidentally delete it?
[02:15] <ravi_master> topato: read the above lines I wrote to "taputo"
[02:15] <weed7> Wow... so this is ubuntu limbo... right? Where all poor souls come for help?
[02:15] <jrib> red__: mount the partition on your hard drive and then edit that xorg.conf.  Why not just use "recovery mode"?  It's a lot easier
[02:15] <ravi_master> weed7, yeah, got a prob?
[02:15] <Zewey> froydinn: i think you need gnome-control-center
[02:15] <c1ru> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11165/
[02:15] <weed7> Yup :(
[02:15] <froydinn> Zewey: No , i think something is messed up here ,cuz it was working fine, now it does not scans for my wireless networks, bt if i look in the router web interface it connects
[02:15] <[BTF] Gator> where is teh best tutorial for using ubuntu for old school windows noobs?
[02:16] <[BTF] Gator> i need to learn ubuntu
[02:16] <soundray> red__: 'sudo mount /dev/hda1 /mnt ; gksudo gedit /mnt/etc/X11/xorg.conf' (replace hda1 with your true ubuntu root partition device name)
[02:16] <[BTF] Gator> but im an old winders dog
[02:16] <weed7> Just got ubuntu ultimate edition 1.3 ... fucking promise sata wont work...
[02:16] <jrib> [BTF] Gator: help.ubuntu.com  is a good start
[02:16] <red__> how do you do that? it wont load anything at all, not even the start screen :/
[02:16] <Zewey> weed7: are you kidding? this is heaven! real-time system support!! :x
[02:16] <ravi_master> [BTF] Gator: Step #1: delete windows.
[02:16] <froydinn> Zewey: Something is messed up here but i dont know exactly what
[02:16] <soundray> !language | weed7
[02:16] <weed7> :D
[02:16] <ubotu> weed7: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[02:16] <weed7> Woops sry
[02:17] <[BTF] Gator> no good easy to understand tutorials?
[02:17] <ravi_master> no need to apologize to a bot, keep going with describing your problem
[02:17] <topato> ravi_master: hostname first, then ip?
[02:17] <weed7> So
[02:17] <Zewey> froydinn: what do you usually use for configuring your network?
[02:17] <weed7> ere...
[02:17] <Rambo3> [BTF] Gator,  check out channel #ubuntu-classroom
[02:17] <[BTF] Gator> ok, how about this, ubuntu allows you to go into terminal and dl apps, right?
[02:17] <[BTF] Gator> say i want xfire
[02:17] <[BTF] Gator> xchate
[02:17] <ravi_master> topato you know what I mean, follow the pattern
[02:17] <[BTF] Gator> i mean
[02:17] <soundray> c1ru: can you run 'sudo fdisk -l' and pastebin the output as well pls
[02:17] <[BTF] Gator> say i want xchat, can't i go into terminal and type something and it will dl it?
[02:17] <froydinn> Zewey: My wireless was working fine, now, when i go to the networking and try to enable the wireless network, i cant find the ssid in the drop down box like before, so i manually type the ssid and the pass for the network, then, it does not show me connection like if i drop the cable to use the wireless it does not work, and on top of that the web interface on the router says im connected,
[02:18] <jrib> [BTF] Gator: help.ubuntu.com's introduction is supposed to be easy to understand.  Which parts don't you like?
[02:18] <thoreauputic> [BTF] Gator: much easier to just use Add/Remove Programs to begin with
[02:18] <leeto> [BTF] Gator: type sudo apt-get install xchat
[02:18] <topato> ravi_master: ok, so ip first then?
[02:18] <froydinn> Zewey:  i use the networking
[02:18] <froydinn> on the sysmtem administration
[02:18] <ravi_master> topato: yep
[02:18] <c1ru> only display my harddrive with fdisk
[02:18] <[BTF] Gator> ok, i will look there jrib
[02:19] <froydinn> Zewey: its really messed up, if i type things manually i c on the router that it gives me an ip, but i cant use only on the wireless
[02:19] <thoreauputic> [BTF] Gator: there is also a help icon on the desktop :) Lots of info there
[02:19] <thoreauputic> [BTF] Gator: actually on the top panel
[02:19] <froydinn> i was thinking about installing the drivers, but i figured it can be something with the networking tools cuz it was working fine bfore,
[02:19] <red__> man you're a lifesaver :) cant thank you enough
[02:19] <[BTF] Gator> ok, thanks thoreauputic
[02:20] <topato> ravi_master: done
[02:20] <Zewey> froydinn: you mean besides the fact that you can't see the ssid, currently you get an ip but you can't use wireless at all, or you can't see whether your wireless is connected or not?
[02:20] <red__> will try it now and hopefully it works
[02:20] <weed7> I got me a raid 0 sata ntfs (2 hds) plus another ntfs sata that i can't seem to mount... The raid0 is a promise controller... Tried the ndiswrapper... fat lot of good that was... Is there a package for this kinda prob?
[02:20] <c1ru> soundray, when i try to format it with the camera, the camera say formating but when finished say another time that i need to format, i try it with ubuntu but i dont know how can i format
[02:21] <TheInfinity> somebody here who knows something about cyrus + procmail?
[02:21] <thoreauputic> [BTF] Gator: just grab the Desktop CD and run it from CD to get a feel for things
[02:21] <zzz_> weed7: ndisrapper is for network devices only.
[02:21] <soundray> c1ru: give me a minute, I'm looking up some info for you
[02:21] <ravi_master> topato: ok, restart the networking, ssh, apache2, any other network-based service, but only after you restart networking.
[02:21] <weed7> ? Really? No wonder it didn't work....
[02:21] <froydinn> Zewey: if i manually type my ssid and pass right, i can activate the network ok, sometimes i get an ip, even though in the router it says im connected i cant use at all
[02:22] <c1ru> im looking in google too soundray , thx for your support
[02:22] <takesinn> So I've started with my first GTK+ project
[02:22] <ravi_master> topato: you know how to do all that, right?
[02:22] <zzz_> weed7: Yes. It is only for network devices.
[02:22] <weed7> :(
[02:22] <froydinn> Zewey: sometimes i get an ip and the router says im connected through ethernet :/
[02:22] <Zewey> froydinn: that's bizarre o_O
[02:22] <topato> ravi_master: yep
[02:22] <ravi_master> froydinn, are you using network-manager?
[02:22] <zzz_> weed7: Which version of Ubuntu did you try?
[02:22] <takesinn> Gonna call it "Ubuntu Gaming Desktop". I was thinking of adding a user called "gamer" and a costum GDM theme which allows you to just push a button and bam you log in as gamer with this small window containing icons listing the games in ubuntu, small descriptions, and possibly screenshots
[02:22] <froydinn> Zewey: Right now i activated the wireless and the router is not giving me an ip anymore
[02:23] <ravi_master> froydinn, use wicd and see if it'll solve your issues, it has countless times I've suggested it to people on here.
[02:23] <froydinn> guess so i go sytem -> admin -> networking
[02:23] <weed7> I'm on ubuntu ultimate edition 1.3 based on 6.10 (i think)
[02:23] <froydinn> wicd ?
[02:23] <atomiku> What is dbus? can I disable it?
[02:23] <froydinn> its it the repositories ?
[02:23] <takesinn> Sound like a good idea or just a waste of time?
[02:23] <Hobbsee> froydinn: i dont recall so
[02:23] <froydinn> ok ill google for it then
[02:23] <ravi_master> froydinn, http://compwiz18.blackhole.cx/wicd/wb/pages/releases.php
[02:24] <thoreauputic> atomiku: if you like breaking your system :)
[02:24] <zzz_> weed7: You might want to try Ubuntu Feisty Herd 5. It may have support for your RAID card.
[02:24] <froydinn> oh
[02:24] <aoirthoir> does anyone know how I turn my software updates back on..I think I must have turned them off.
[02:24] <froydinn> ravi_master: Thx dude
[02:24] <weed7> Yup. Sure does takesinn
[02:24] <atomiku> thoreauputic: o
[02:24] <atomiku> okay
[02:24] <froydinn> its really the first time i see something so bizarre
[02:24] <atomiku> thx
[02:24] <takesinn> Whats Ubuntu Ultimate Edition?
[02:24] <weed7> You think it's worth downloading all over again?
[02:24] <atomiku> takesinn:
[02:24] <weed7> Iy's just ubuntu with a bunch of cool packages
[02:24] <atomiku> Its just like uhh
[02:24] <ravi_master> froydinn, no problemo, if that doesn't work for you, uninstall it and install network-manager, should be in apt repos
[02:24] <atomiku> yah
[02:25] <Hobbsee> takesinn: it's ubuntu edgy + extra stuff, which may or may not work.
[02:25] <soundray> c1ru: are you on edgy or dapper?
[02:25] <takesinn> Ahh
[02:25] <atomiku> an (unoffical, i think) release of ubuntu with more stuff installed
[02:25] <ravi_master> Ubuntu Ultimate Edition == bloatware
[02:25] <takesinn> ubuntu (un)stable xD
[02:25] <c1ru> feisty
[02:25] <takesinn> as apposed to stable and unstable
[02:25] <takesinn> :P
[02:25] <c1ru> a little friki here
[02:25] <zzz_> weed7: It may be worth a try. If you have fast connection the download shouldn't matter much.
[02:25] <c1ru> :D!
[02:25] <aoirthoir> takesinn Ubuntu is ubuntu. But different people can take ubuntu and add whatever programs they want to it. Then they prepackage it. This is seperate from the people who originally release ubuntu. However all those packages and programs are available in all versions of ubuntu. You just have to install them.
[02:25] <takesinn> Ey
[02:25] <takesinn> Dun explain Linux to me :P
[02:26] <soundray> c1ru: in that case, you should make sure you have linux-image2.6.20-12-generic
[02:26] <takesinn> Dun explain open source either ^^;; I was just curious about the distro
[02:26] <Zewey> mmm, Click-n-run is going to be interesting :D
[02:26] <aoirthoir> takesinn: you wont find ubuntu crippled like windows. So there is no enterprise ubuntu..it is all enterprice.
[02:26] <weed7> Humm... I'll try that if i can't find a solution... promise have the driver's source code on there site...
[02:26] <ravi_master> takesinn, explain life to me
[02:26] <ravi_master> ok, alert to anyone buying video cards, DON'T BUY ATI.
[02:26] <Hobbsee> aoirthoir: not quite all of them, btw.  like, ones which include w32codecs, for eg
[02:27] <c1ru> i have it soundray
[02:27] <topato> ravi_master: done (sorry about me being slow, there's a guy sitting on the "server" working)
[02:27] <ravi_master> topato: sitting on the server?
[02:27] <zzz_> weed7: What is your RAID card's model name?
[02:27] <topato> ravi_master: well, not on top of it.. :)
[02:27] <aoirthoir> hobbsee, the w32codecs are available to a user of ubuntu without ubuntu ultimate, they just have to turn on certain repositories. The legality of course is in question.
[02:28] <weed7> promise 376 or 378
[02:28] <ravi_master> topato: I think I've found the reason it's going slow, he's crushing the motherboard under his enormous weight.
[02:28] <soundray> c1ru: you may be able to use the info at the top of this page: http://www.webcon.ca/~imorgan/tifm21/
[02:28] <weed7> now managed as a tx4000 i think
[02:28] <takesinn> ravi_master: You're born, you grow up, you realise life sucks, try to make the best of it, then realise you ran out of time. And THEN you die. :P
[02:28] <stoneey> sherman
[02:28] <stoneey> oops
[02:28] <stoneey> nvm
[02:28] <ravi_master> topato: nah, you die right in the middle of those 5 things.
[02:28] <soundray> and somewhere along the way, you're offtopic
[02:28] <takesinn> So is there a ubuntu deb package with Enemy Territory?
[02:29] <c1ru> my lspci is 08:03.2 Mass storage controller: Texas Instruments 5-in-1 Multimedia Card Reader (SD/MMC/MS/MS PRO/xD)
[02:29] <takesinn> He asked me about life, I gave him the asnwer ^;;
[02:29] <Hobbsee> aoirthoir: i know.  but none of those repos are official ubuntu ones
[02:29] <ravi_master> topato: anyways, what did you restart?
[02:29] <pp> hello
[02:29] <zzz_> weed7: I can't find promise 376 or 378 on the web site of Promise. Are you sure? (The url is: http://www.promise.com/support/download/download_eng.asp )
[02:29] <topato> ravi_master: apache, nfs, ssh (after restarting the network)
[02:29] <Grayyoga> why my emacs cannot recognize rfc1345 input mode? it simply says that there is "no match" for such name. therefore i'm not able to type in anything except english letters.
[02:29] <ravi_master> ah, damn, I'm so bad at keeping nicks straight
[02:29] <leeto> takesinn: never found one , always installed with the .run installer, available here for example : http://olivier.aurait.eu/tc-elite/linux/et-linux-2.60.x86.run
[02:29] <weed7> Yea i know. They removed it years back... now we're told to use the tx4000 driver or something...
[02:30] <takesinn> leeto: I got that, installed it. But it isn't working properly.
[02:30] <ravi_master> topato: alrighty, connect to it with your client
[02:30] <c1ru> when i try iy i get  setpci -s 08:03.2 4c.b=02   ->    pcilib: Cannot open /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:08:03.2/config
[02:30] <takesinn> When I start in normal user mode it gives me this strange error about "permission denied". Hold on, let me reproduce it.
[02:31] <soundray> c1ru: sudo setpci...
[02:31] <topato> ravi_master: still slow. requested connection NOW
[02:31] <soundray> Grayyoga: you may have to install emacs-snapshot
[02:31] <ravi_master> topato: hmmm... what else can it be...
[02:31] <c1ru> i`m stupid :D
[02:31] <soundray> c1ru: happens to the best of us ;)
[02:31] <c1ru> ok
[02:31] <aoirthoir> Hobbsee: exactly. Still, there is no difference really in ubuntu editions...as far as typically found in os versions (read M$)..there is no waterred down "home" version and a more expensive bloated "enterprise"..all the other versions are merely package expansions which are mostly freely available to a ubuntu user. Just as the additional repos are not official and not supported..so too with ubuntu ultimate. Frankly the ultimate ubunt
[02:31] <aoirthoir> u is the one I downloaded from canonical and modified myself for myself.
[02:31] <c1ru> and now
[02:31] <weed7> Tell you what... I can't get any of my scsi ntfs drives to mount... let alone raid... i got a feeling it's something to with scsi.... http://www.linuxplanet.com/linuxplanet/tutorials/4232/2/ been using that tutorial... but no go...
[02:32] <ravi_master> topato: holy shit, time for work, I've got to get going.
[02:32] <topato> ravi_master: got password prompt NOW
[02:32] <soundray> c1ru: insert the card again and see if fdisk -l sees it
[02:32] <topato> ravi_master: thanks a lot for your time!
[02:32] <takesinn> Here we go, "FGLTexMgr: open of shared memory object failed (Permission denied)"
[02:32] <ravi_master> anyone in here willing to continue helping topato with networking problems?
[02:32] <Hobbsee> aoirthoir: true.  and you didnt download the ultimate ubuntu from canononical.  that i'm sure of :P
[02:32] <ravi_master> please, someone step up!
[02:32] <c1ru> nop =(
[02:32] <zzz_> weed7: It looks like there are only drivers available for SUSE and Red Hat. The source code of the driver is for 2.4 series kernel. (Ubuntu uses 2.6, for you information.)
[02:32] <topato> ravi_master: i think i'll try to setup a new internal network on the small router when people leave tonight
[02:32] <takesinn> I'm not sure if it's the X.org settings or permission settings in /usr/local/games
[02:32] <topato> to see what's going on
[02:32] <moginspace> Can anyone tell me how to start a simple terminal (init 3, not init 1) without running X11 server?
[02:32] <soundray> c1ru: I think it's time to report a bug
[02:32] <topato> ravi_master: i'm starting tot hink that it's a bigger problem thant he server
[02:32] <weed7> So can't compile that on the 2.6 kernel right?
[02:33] <aoirthoir> Hobbsee I didnt download ultimate at all.. I am happy with edgy eft plus my own beryl additions
[02:33] <topato> ravi_master: had it running at home earlier, and it responed really fast even over internet
[02:33] <ravi_master> alright, but I am getting a feeling it is because all of your services are slower
[02:33] <aoirthoir> brb
[02:33] <c1ru> but, hmm, i will try it in win for see if that sd is damaged or only a bug in feisty
[02:33] <c1ru> i will try it with hirens boot cd too
[02:33] <zzz_> weed7: Unfortunately, no. You might want to try Slackware which ships with 2.4.33 if I recall correctly.
[02:33] <ravi_master> alright, but I am getting a feeling it is because all of your services are slower *once you put it in the office*
[02:33] <don_j> hi. I'm goin' to add a install: section in a makefile to be ubuntu compatible. Where can I find approprite information?
[02:33] <soundray> c1ru: hope you can work it out.
[02:34] <weed7> :( Aww...
[02:34] <c1ru> thx for all
[02:34] <c1ru> see u later
[02:34] <weed7> What i don't get is that ubuntu HAS a "sata_promise" driver...
[02:34] <ravi_master> I'm thinking it's a reverse dns issue with the networking environment that's beyond that jack in the wall and I have to leave this very minute or else I'll have to stay an extra hour in the office.
[02:35] <weed7> It just don't work... I can't get my other sata hd (non raid/ non promise) to load...
[02:36] <don_j> no package maintainers on the channel?
[02:36] <mweichert> when preceeding, how do I tell partman to erase the contents of the first disk and automatically partition?
[02:36] <adx> i have told iptables to accept icmp traffic
[02:36] <adx> and i still can't ping the external ip
[02:36] <adx> why?
[02:37] <don_j> adx: you need to have root privileges to do that
[02:37] <weed7> I run ls /proc/scsi... and i get "ata_piix  device_info  sata_promise  sbp2  scsi  sg"...
[02:37] <mweichert> in the docs I see that it says I can specify devfs paths, is that still a bug?
[02:37] <adx> don_j: yes
[02:37] <adx> i did
[02:37] <thoreauputic> adx: if you have a router, that would be set in the router, not your machine NAT ed behind it
[02:37] <weed7> I try # fdisk -l /dev/[WHATEVER]  on them and i get no reply
[02:38] <froydin1> hey peps, i just installed firefox 2 how do i set the command firefox to run the new mozilla-firefox , symlinks right ?
[02:38] <moginspace> is your drive broken? physically weed?
[02:38] <adx> thoreauputic: but that doesn't work like port forwarding, does it?
[02:38] <moginspace> does it make noise or can you feel it spinning?
[02:38] <thoreauputic> adx: unless you have set the machine as a DMZ ( everything forwarded)
[02:38] <adx> how would i enable icmp traffic on my router
[02:38] <VXWorks> I've already installed madwifi driver. How do I connect to my AP ?
[02:38] <weed7> Nah... works fine under windows...
[02:38] <moginspace> is it an NTFS drive?
[02:38] <weed7> Yup
[02:38] <shingoki> Anyone know what the package is for man pages on c functions?
[02:38] <moginspace> well there you go
[02:38] <ptrbee> hello, can anyone tell me how to join/connect to this irc://irc.efnet.net/alt.binz
[02:38] <moginspace> that's the problem dude
[02:38] <thoreauputic> adx: how you set pings to be replied to in a router depends on which router you use
[02:38] <weed7> (and i got ntfs working on my external hard drive :( )
[02:39] <weed7> Life sucks....
[02:39] <moginspace> i have the same problem, ubuntu don't recognize my ntfs windows
[02:39] <weed7> At all?
[02:39] <shingoki> ptrbee: you're on IRC... just use whichever IRC client you are in to connect to server irc.efnet.net then /join #alt.binz
[02:39] <moginspace> nope, not at all
[02:39] <shingoki> although goodness knows what that channel actually is
[02:39] <moginspace> thinks its teh only drive in my computer
[02:39] <yamit> hello
[02:39] <moginspace> i have a PATA NTFS disk for windows and SATA for ubuntu
[02:40] <ptrbee> thanks m8
[02:40] <craigbass1976> I need libcdda.so in order to use evince to view faxes sent/received with efax.  How do I get that?
[02:40] <amias> i've been able to read ntfs partitions in ubuntu for at least a year ( ide disks)
[02:40] <moginspace> they can't see each other
[02:40] <yamit> a question?
[02:40] <froydin1> how do i delete something from my applications menu ?
[02:40] <yamit> ubuntu sopport winmodem?
[02:40] <adx> thoreauputic: i have a linksys one, does that help?:)
[02:40] <don_j> where do I find info on ubuntu compatible makefiles ?
[02:40] <yamit> support
[02:40] <weed7> I've been downloading any thing and everything to do with ntfs on the update programs... still nothing. But maybe that'll work for you
[02:40] <amias> craigbass1976,  google for it and i'm sure you'll find a package name
[02:40] <ptrbee> its for  newsgroup reader
[02:41] <craigbass1976> froydin1, right click on the ubuntu symbol and you can edit the menue
[02:41] <aoirthoir> froydin1: if you wish to install common programs like firefox..use apt-get install or aptitude or synaptic instead of downloading from the website..then all your appropriate settings will be made
[02:41] <thoreauputic> adx: not really :) I don't know about linksys - do you have the manual?
[02:41] <yamit> hey ubunto support winmodem?
[02:41] <takesinn> I don't think my user has permission to write to /dev/tmpfs
[02:41] <craigbass1976> yamit, good luck
[02:41] <thoreauputic> yamit: only a few
[02:41] <takesinn> I mean /dev/shm
[02:41] <aoirthoir> yamit the point of winmodem was to screw everyone, so they could not run the modem even from dos.
[02:42] <adx> thoreauputic: lol it's an extremely difficult situation. i'm trying to guide someone else to do it remotely. i'm not even close it
[02:42] <yamit> but i,use a live version
[02:42] <amias> yamit, some of them do , whats yours , have you looked at http://linmodems.org/
[02:42] <moginspace> weed7: well at least i've narrowed down your problem, im not an expert just a newbie with the same problem
[02:42] <adx> *to it
[02:42] <moginspace> peace out dude
[02:42] <my-nick> help
[02:42] <thoreauputic> adx: hmm - what can I say? Good luck ...
[02:42] <weed7> Thanks man. I'll keep at it
[02:42] <adx> thanks man
[02:42] <amias> aoirthoir, no it wasn't - its cheaper to do the work in software than hardware , that was just a perk
[02:42] <elkbuntu> my-nick, with what?
[02:42] <my-nick> i received this error while booting -> fsck died with exit status 8
[02:42] <takesinn> How do I make it so my user can access /dev/shm?
[02:43] <froydin1> aoirthoir: well i already installed the firefox2 and its ok ... but now i can only lunch from mozilla-firefox , instead of firefox, so everything that uses firefox its not working anymore, whut u think would be better, uninstall it and try throught the synaptics, bcuz i could not get it from the apt-get , but my guess i just have to create a symlink to firefox -> mozilla-firefox right ?
[02:43] <my-nick> then it asked me my root password to manually repair
[02:43] <elkbuntu> my-nick, are you dual-booting?
[02:43] <my-nick> how do i manually repair it
[02:43] <amias> my-nick,  ok you probably didn't shut down cleanly
[02:43] <my-nick> i did shutdown cleanly
[02:43] <my-nick> every single time
[02:43] <amias> my-nick,  what filesystem do you use and which partition is it ?
[02:44] <mattr> is anyone out there???
[02:44] <amias> my-nick, in which case your disk my be corrupt
[02:44] <thoreauputic> !firefox | froydin1
[02:44] <ubotu> froydin1: 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
[02:44] <amias> mattr : no
[02:44] <I3ooI3oo> no mattr
[02:44] <my-nick> the error was fsck.ext3: Unable to resolve 'UUID=sumthing
[02:44] <thoreauputic> froydin1: there's a howto about new versions of firefox - see the URL from ubotu
[02:44] <my-nick> i used ext3
[02:44] <zzz_> weed7, what does your /proc/scsi/scsi contain?
[02:44] <elkbuntu> my-nick, are you dual-booting ubuntu?
[02:44] <my-nick> nope
[02:44] <I3ooI3oo> !anyone |mattr
[02:44] <ubotu> mattr: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[02:44] <my-nick> well, previously i do
[02:44] <weed7> ata_piix  device_info  sata_promise  sbp2  scsi  sg
[02:45] <amias> my-nick,  ok this is the new naming convention , some of the disk tools don't support it yet . try tab completing /dev/hd
[02:45] <slapfight> froydin1: have a look at http://www.ubuntuguide.org - there is at exelent guide in installing firefox2, you just need to add some extra repositories
[02:45] <my-nick> the grub's still there
[02:45] <weed7> that's it
[02:45] <aoirthoir> froydin1: install with synaptic
[02:45] <yamit> other question, somebody know how run the daemon lisa in knnopix?
[02:45] <elkbuntu> my-nick, and you recently formatted a partition?
[02:45] <my-nick> but i edited the menu.lst to directly boot my ubuntu
[02:45] <my-nick> yes
[02:45] <zzz_> weed7, I am asking for the contents of the following file /proc/scsi/scsi
[02:45] <yamit> how?
[02:45] <my-nick> it was an ntfs partition
[02:45] <rogue780> is there a way I can get a script to run as root? like a chmod +something
[02:45] <my-nick> i formatted it to ext3
[02:45] <my-nick> then resolved the booting problem
[02:45] <weed7> hold on i'll check brb
[02:45] <my-nick> but i got the fsck error
[02:45] <amias> my-nick, did you change the partition type with fdisk or parted ?
[02:45] <rogue780> or a way to put the sudo command and password into the script itself
[02:45] <rogue780> ?
[02:45] <I3ooI3oo> rougue sudo sh Scriptname ?
[02:45] <thoreauputic> rogue780: scripts can't be run suid root for security reasons
[02:46] <my-nick> i can continue booting, but the error keeps bugging me
[02:46] <craigbass1976> amias, I've read about a fellow using fedora who had the error message and fixed it (didn't give real specific details) with yum and gnome-vfs2.  Not sure if he updated or installed, but apt-get install gnome-vfs2 does nothing
[02:46] <my-nick> gparted
[02:46] <elkbuntu> !uuid | my-nick
[02:46] <ubotu> my-nick: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[02:46] <thoreauputic> rogue780: you can script to ask for a password - for example call gksudo etc
[02:46] <rogue780> I3ooI3oo, thoreauputic, I need "/etc/init.d/networking restart" to run when gnome starts.
[02:46] <rogue780> automatically
[02:47] <thoreauputic> rogue780: umm - why?
[02:47] <masters> hello
[02:47] <masters> there
[02:47] <masters> i have a ubuntu cd
[02:47] <masters> but cant install for some reason
[02:47] <rogue780> because for some reason when the computer starts it doesn't automatically enable ath0 (my wireless connection) and I have to do it manually, and it's kind of annoying
[02:47] <froydin1> see peps i loooked at the tutorial for the firefox, everything there its exactly like i did
[02:47] <rogue780> !hello|masters
[02:47] <ubotu> masters: hello: The classic greeting, and a good example. In component main, is optional. Version 2.1.1-4 (edgy), package size 47 kB, installed size 472 kB
[02:48] <froydin1> im just having a problem in this section: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11168/
[02:48] <amias> craigbass1976, why do you need a library of cd access functions to view a fax ?
[02:48] <froydin1> in setting up the mozilla-firefox to run from the command firefox
[02:48] <elkbuntu> my-nick, in terminal, do: ls -lh /dev/disk/by-uuid/ and then check that the partitions match same the UUIDs in /etc/fstab, ok?
[02:48] <rogue780> thoreauputic, any ideas?
[02:48] <froydin1> so when i type "firefox" it will run "mozilla-firefox" capisce?
[02:49] <craigbass1976> amias, no idea.  but the error I get when trying to use evince to view a fax is "Cannot load module `/usr/lib/gnome-vfs-2.0/modules/libcdda.so' (/usr/lib/gnome-vfs-2.0/modules" blahblah
[02:49] <froydin1> sudo ln -s /opt/firefox/firefox /usr/bin/mozilla-firefox
[02:49] <froydin1> does not work for me
[02:49] <thoreauputic> rogue780: possibly it can be put in the GDM config somewhere, but I don't know where
[02:49] <jm_dev> hi!
[02:49] <amias> rogue780,  System -> Preferences ->  Sessions - in the startup programs tab
[02:49] <froydin1> ln: creating symbolic link `/usr/bin/mozilla-firefox' to `/opt/firefox/firefox': File exists
[02:49] <masters> can i install while windows is running
[02:50] <Pici> masters: No, Ubuntu is a seperate OS.
[02:50] <_follower_> FYI: this page includes a link to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrequentlyAskedQuestions which doesn't exist.
[02:50] <thoreauputic> rogue780: alternatively, put a script in ~/.gnomerc that calls  " gsudo /etc/init.d/networking restart"
[02:50] <I3ooI3oo> froydin aren't you doing it backwards
[02:50] <thoreauputic> um gksudo
[02:50] <jm_dev> does anyone knows a channel about (Extreme Programming. XP)? (and the server)
[02:50] <rogue780> amias, but will it run as root?
[02:50] <froydin1> well thats exactly as in the how-to
[02:50] <_follower_> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToGetHelp
[02:50] <thoreauputic> rogue780: but that will ask for a password
[02:50] <I3ooI3oo> sudo ln -s /usr/bin/mozilla-firefox /opt/firefox/firefox
[02:50] <aoirthoir> froydin1: the reason to use the package managers is that they are exactly just that..a full package manager, including all dependencies, all menu setups, and so on.
[02:50] <_follower_> ok, so, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToGetHelp is linked to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrequentlyAskedQuestions which doesn't exist.
[02:51] <masters> is there a list of windows apps somewhere that work with ubuntu

[02:51] <maks> how to get in "#ubuntu-pl na irc.freenode.net" I haven't ever use IRC xD
[02:51] <preglow> is the ubuntu crash handler invoked for programs also not installed with apt?
[02:51] <amias> aoirthoir, gnomebaker or k3b
[02:51] <aoirthoir> masters: you need wine for that..go to http://www.winehq.com/
[02:52] <Pici> masters: No windows applications will work natively with Ubuntu, you'd need to run them under a program called wine.
[02:52] <my-nick> hello
[02:52] <leeto> aoirthoir: gnomebaker or k3b
[02:52] <masters> thx
[02:52] <my-nick> amias : sorr.. dc
[02:52] <shingoki> maks - you ar eusing IRC. Type "/join #ubuntu-pl"
[02:52] <my-nick> amias : sorry.. dc
[02:52] <aoirthoir> leeto: amias thanks..im going to install now
[02:52] <shingoki> maks: or possibly, just click on where it says #ubuntu-pl in the window, depending on how good your IRC client is
[02:53] <my-nick> help
[02:53] <masters> is ubuntu anything like windows because i have no ideas about the commands
[02:53] <erstazi> my-nick: where?
[02:53] <maks> I have got a little problem with my ubuntu. I change a display font to tahoma and know I don't know how to resert options to defauls..
[02:53] <leeto> masters: what commands .?
[02:53] <masters> well
[02:53] <_follower_> anyway, i'm trying to find the source of dbus-raise-service-start-timeout.patch (mentioned here https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dbus/+bug/62763) and can't find web-browsable bzr source repository--am i missing something?
[02:53] <masters> install stuff and such
[02:53] <my-nick> fsck died at status 8
[02:53] <Pici> masters: Why dont you try out a LiveCD and see how you like it.  It won't make any changes to your system.
[02:53] <froydin1> masters: give it a try , try a live cd
[02:53] <thoreauputic> rogue780: you can also configure sudo to run certain commands without a password - see man sudoers , man visudo
[02:54] <leeto> masters: you don't have to use commands to do that, if you use commands they are nothing like windows
[02:54] <masters> cool
[02:54] <froydin1> masters: you dont need to install anything
[02:54] <amias> installing ubuntu from windows = https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromWindows
[02:54] <rogue780> thoreauputic, thanks
[02:54] <my-nick> What does this means -> "A maintenance shell will now be started"
[02:54] <masters> i mean is point and click or do i need to do stuff to make it work
[02:54] <leeto> point and click
[02:54] <my-nick> "CONTROL-D will terminate this shell and resume boot"
[02:55] <CheshireViking> masters, Ubuntu is and Isn't like windows, it is in that it uses a gui environment so you can click icons/programs to start them, it isn't in that commands & application work differently
[02:55] <thoreauputic> my-nick: you've been dropped to busybox - a restricted shell for disasters like failure to boot
[02:55] <ptrbee> hi does anyone connect or sync their pda phones via usb using multisync?? i can't seem to get mine workin on ubuntu, worked on fc6 & arch
[02:55] <amias> my-nick, a problem with the disk was detected and you are being dropped in to a root shell to sort it out
[02:55] <catxk-_> is there any way to get the gnome-terminal proper transparent?
[02:55] <my-nick> how do i sort it out
[02:55] <elkbuntu> my-nick, what happens when you hit enter at that line?
[02:55] <amias> my-nick, what is your linux partition  called ?
[02:55] <leeto> catxk-_: using compiz or beryl yes
[02:55] <my-nick> it asked me to repair the filesystem manually
[02:55] <catxk-> leeto: aww... ok, thanks :)

[02:56] <my-nick> i didnt say

[02:56] <my-nick> just this -> fsck.ext3
[02:56] <pradeep> catxk-, you could also Edit -> Current profile
[02:56] <craigbass1976> Is there another post script viewer other than evince?
[02:56] <cyberfr0g> hey
[02:56] <my-nick> *it
[02:56] <amonbish> yo
[02:56] <atrus> catxk-: recent enough xcompmgr can do it too,  without beryl or compiz.
[02:56] <sipior> craigbass1976: gv
[02:56] <rucelle> !beryl
[02:56] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[02:56] <masters> is there any distro that is good for newbies
[02:56] <sipior> craigbass1976: or ggv, for the gtk version

[02:57] <maks> Does anybody help me?
[02:57] <maks> I have got a little problem with my ubuntu. I change a display font to tahoma and know I don't know how to resert options to defauls..
[02:57] <my-nick> amias: root partition for ubuntu is /dev/sda6
[02:57] <masters> ubuntu-ultimate1.3
[02:57] <masters> is on the way
[02:57] <masters> anyone try it
[02:57] <my-nick> amias: my root partition for ubuntu is /dev/sda6
[02:58] <amias> my-nick, ok then do fsck.ext3 /dev/sda6
[02:58] <my-nick> the ntfs turned ext3 is sda1
[02:58] <my-nick> ok
[02:58] <my-nick> trying now
[02:58] <amias> my-nick, before you start
[02:58] <pradeep> maks, system-preferences-fonts
[02:58] <maks> in terminal?
[02:58] <psyko_free> hi
[02:58] <masters> is it faster then windows
[02:58] <amias> my-nick,  run fdisk -l /dev/hda and /msg me the results
[02:59] <pradeep> maks, no ... on the panel
[02:59] <my-nick> ok
[02:59] <amias> masters, might be depends what you are doing and what hardware you have
[02:59] <my-nick> hold on
[02:59] <amias> my-nick, don't paste it in here
[02:59] <catxk-> atrus: mmkay, I'll see if I can figure it out, thanks
[02:59] <masters> sorry for asking so much but i want to get rid of windows
[02:59] <my-nick> okay
[02:59] <BobBlec> greetings
[03:00] <my-nick> i hav to type it, i cant copy paste it
[03:00] <leeto> masters: you asked in the right channel , ubuntu's fine . Read a bit of doc on the website
[03:00] <my-nick> coz its on another pc
[03:00] <my-nick> its gonna be long
[03:00] <amias> masters, try a live cd  , it will be slower than a proper install but it will give you a good idea of how it works without changing anything
[03:00] <masters> download time is the issue
[03:00] <amias> masters, i meant run instead of be
[03:01] <aoirthoir> masters much of the time ubuntu is faster...most of the time it WONT run your windows software. Most of the time you can get software replacements. ALL of your common software exists in one form or another on ubuntu for free (as in beer and speech)..Web surfing, email, office apps, accounting, personal finances and so on are all available and many of these come installed right from the rip on ubuntu
[03:01] <maks> in the font window I have got 5 x tahoma
[03:01] <masters> will try
[03:01] <BobBlec> has anyone here installed ubuntu on an OldWorld PowerMac?
[03:01] <amias> masters, the latest ubuntu installer runs from a livecd
[03:01] <CheshireViking> masters, download ubuntu 6.1 & birm it to a cd, then put the cd in your computer and restart it, it'll be slower than a proper install, but it won't change anything on your computer and will let you know whether all your hardware works with it
[03:01] <maks> so I want to change it to defaults ;)
[03:01] <leeto> BobBlec: installing linux on oldworld is a pita
[03:01] <CheshireViking> birm=burn
[03:01] <amias> masters, so you will only need one download
[03:01] <masters> ok
[03:01] <BobBlec> leeto: so I've noticed  :)
[03:01] <leeto> BobBlec: I gave up and threw the machine away
[03:01] <my-nick> did u receive it amias?
[03:02] <masters> thx guys and ladies'
[03:02] <pradeep> maks, which font is that? as in Application/Document/Desktop etc
[03:02] <alexfox> any one know how to trouble shoot ati drivers for a 9250
[03:02] <BobBlec> leeto: I haven't gone *quite* that far
[03:02] <BobBlec> (yet)
[03:02] <leeto> BobBlec: as far as i remember, some people got it to work using netbsd doc
[03:02] <amias> alenax, dunno , ask ati
[03:03] <weed7> Oh ****... Sorry... zzz_ You still there? I had to go do something... So yea. /proc/scsi/scsi is empty... it's just an empty txt file...
[03:03] <CheshireViking> masters, might be worth you looking at some screenshots of ubuntu & as an alternative of kubuntu - the gui is different on each, see which you think looks best for you, ubuntu uses gnome and kubuntu uses kde, depending on which one you like the look of, download either ubuntu or kubuntu
[03:03] <maks> pradeep: I dont know what he are talking about xD I'm a newbie ;] 
[03:03] <spheard> gnome is evil
[03:03] <masters> thx
[03:04] <BobBlec> leeto: I tried to install 6.06 yesterday; set it up with BootX, every time I tried to boot it, it either locked up the machine, or I got a Matrix-like effect on the top 1/4th of the screen
[03:04] <masters> ok when you download a tar.gz file or something like that how do you install them
[03:04] <zzz_> weed7: Okay, I asked for the contents of /proc/scsi/scsi for comfirmation. You might still want to try Feisty.
[03:04] <BobBlec> leeto: netbsd doc? ok  :)
[03:04] <pradeep> maks, change the font to 'Sans' 10
[03:04] <maks> all?
[03:05] <spheard> masters, depends whats in the file
[03:05] <maks> As I remember one was other
[03:05] <amias> does dist-upgrade from edgy to fiesty work yet ?
[03:05] <aoirthoir> masters: the thing I recommend is to start with Ubuntu...it comes with gnome..which I hated at first. but it is a LOT simpler than KDE. So in the beginning you can focus on learning Gnu/Linux/Ubuntu basics. Then go on from there. Kubuntu installs a LOt more software..for me personally (not for everyone it was a big headache
[03:05] <pradeep> maks, in this order
[03:05] <BobBlec> leeto: then, just for s&g, I tried a 5.10 live cd, and it booted part way
[03:05] <weed7> Feisty fawn?
[03:05] <masters> ok
[03:05] <pradeep> maks, Sans 9, sans 10, sans 10, sans bold 10, Monospace 10
[03:05] <spheard> aoir, kde's a lot more intuitive
[03:05] <froydin1> see peps, uninstalled firefox and installed automatically with synaptics manager and still i cant luch firefox typing firefox in the terminal, only typing mozilla-firefox
[03:05] <zzz_> weed7: Yes, Feisty Fawn. Feisty Fawn Herd 5 to be precise.
[03:05] <maks> okay, thank you very much ;] 
[03:06] <leeto> BobBlec: can't help you much on that, but I remember that netbsd had some fine step by step guide
[03:06] <aoirthoir> froydin1: is firefox in your menues?
[03:06] <ferronica> jubie: are you here???
[03:06] <CheshireViking> masters, the majority of applications you might want to download are included in the ubuntu repositories, all you would do with those is start Synaptic (equivalent to windows add/remove programs) and install a program through that, you can search for specific things or classes of program
[03:06] <maks> But know I have got another question - How to resert all gnome settings? Is it possible?
[03:06] <spheard> It was only when I moved over to kde did I really start to get to grips with linux
[03:06] <BobBlec> leeto: on the main netbsd site?
[03:06] <masters> ok
[03:06] <leeto> maks: do a 'mv ~/.gnome ~/.gnome-old'
[03:06] <CheshireViking> ferronica, jube had to go - said it was getting late and was getting to bedtime
[03:06] <maks> know = now
[03:07] <ferronica> CheshireViking: Oh
[03:07] <masters> which live cd should i get
[03:07] <weed7> I'll guess i'll have a look at the other distros then...
[03:07] <maks> thanks ;] 
[03:07] <leeto> masters: ubuntu desktop 6.10 i386
[03:07] <masters>  Download Ubuntu 5.10
[03:07] <masters>  Download Ubuntu 6.06
[03:07] <C_Kode> Hi all.  When downloading the ISO is the LTS the live CD and the one without LTS the regular install CD/DVD?
[03:07] <weed7> Thanks zzz_
[03:07] <CheshireViking> ferronica, did you get your nvidia working?
[03:07] <zzz_> weed7: No problem.
[03:07] <ferronica> CheshireViking: He told me ho to install that game i just downloded it on my desktop now how to install it ?????
[03:07] <masters> can some one point me to a good copy of the live cd
[03:07] <froydin1> yah before it was, now that uninstalled n reinstalled its not, wich is no a prob cuz i can create a link , my thing is for example, gaim uses firefox to lauch the website addresses ( and for some reason i cannot find where to change it ) and many other apps rusing "firefox" to launch the browser, and "firefox" its not working, only "mozilla-firefox" seems dumb but its anoyin me
[03:07] <masters> stable
[03:07] <ferronica> CheshireViking: not rebooted yet
[03:07] <C_Kode> Yes no maybe so?
[03:08] <froydin1> what i need to do is to create a symlink im pretty sure thats my prob, but im gettin this error i cant do it
[03:08] <froydin1> :(
[03:08] <CheshireViking> ferronica, might be worth you restarting x and making sure that the nvidia & 3d is working first
[03:08] <adx> how do i enable the vnc server?
[03:09] <BobBlec> leeto: thanks  :)
[03:09] <adx> i go to remote desktop and i put in a password
[03:09] <adx> what's next?
[03:09] <C_Kode> Is the LTS ISO the live CD?
[03:09] <froydin1> !symlinks
[03:09] <ubotu> symlinks: scan/change symbolic links. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.2-4.2 (edgy), package size 8 kB, installed size 60 kB
[03:10] <CheshireViking> masters, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download - If you want stable, pick either 6.1 or 6.06 - 6.1 is the most recent stable version, but 6.06 has longer term support, both should be live cd's
[03:10] <leeto> C_Kode: yes
[03:10] <leeto> C_Kode: if you download 6.06 desktop lts , it'll be a livecd
[03:10] <don_j> exit
[03:10] <C_Kode> 6.10 is the normal install?
[03:11] <masters> so they still updtae the os
[03:11] <aoirthoir> ok froydin first to create the symlink do this: su ln -s /pathtofiletolinkto /pathtonewfile
[03:11] <leeto> C_Kode: the live cd has an option to install , so it's both a livecd and an install cd
[03:11] <takesinn> BRB
[03:11] <aoirthoir> froydin1: it will ask you your password...
[03:11] <aoirthoir> snatch that.
[03:11] <masters> why is ti
[03:11] <C_Kode> leeto: Thanks!
[03:11] <aoirthoir> SUDO not su...
[03:11] <masters> the live cd is 690mb
[03:11] <masters> and iso is 1.8gigs

[03:17] <takesinn> Pyranix: Whats that?
[03:18] <Pyranix> :takeshinn here is the address: http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[03:18] <CheshireViking> !envy > takesinn
[03:18] <sipior> takesinn: do you have the line "Mode  0666" in the DRI section of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[03:18] <kghunt> When I load beryl i lose all my title bars and the background goes black?
[03:18] <Pyranix> takesinn: it will correct your drivers
[03:19] <Pyranix> takesinn: and rewrite your xorg.conf for 3d acceleration
[03:19] <ptrbee> hi does anyone connect or sync their pda phones via usb using multisync?? i can't seem to get mine workin on ubuntu, my device shows in dmesg but not in /dev/
[03:20] <aoirthoir> froydin1: where is your ls?
[03:20] <leeto> in /bin/ ?
[03:20] <ptrbee> shal i put it here?
[03:21] <aoirthoir> ptrbee: there is always the chance that the feature was deliberately disabled by your phone company. Verizon for example is notorious for that.
[03:21] <froydin1> aoirthoir: hold up[
[03:21] <ptrbee> no it showed in fc6
[03:21] <aoirthoir> froydin1: use www.pastebin.ca
[03:21] <froydin1> i know
[03:21] <froydin1> aoirthoir: does matter just need this line:
[03:21] <froydin1> lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root       24 2007-03-20 09:51 firefox -> /usr/bin/mozilla-firefox
[03:22] <froydin1> thas the symlink created but its not working
[03:23] <fredl> hi guys, do you happen to know if there's some way to make firefox not go to the end of the page when I press the down arrow?
[03:23] <jester626> morning, has anyone gotten Dreamweaver MX 2004 to run in Ubuntu? I have gone through countless tutorials on setting it up using wine and nothing seems to work
[03:23] <fredl> that seems to be the default thing it does, nly when I click in the window after loading it, it just scrolls instead.
[03:23] <ferronica> ok Rebooted
[03:23] <froydin1> aoirthoir: any thoughts ?
[03:24] <fredl> jester626, is Dreamweaver MX 2004 an MS Windows application?
[03:24] <jester626> yes it is
[03:24] <ferronica> and typed glxgears one window open with moving gears
[03:24] <gnomefreak> fredl: yes
[03:24] <ptrbee> aoirthoi: its not disabled it works on other distros
[03:24] <fredl> jester626, so you don't have any problems running other MS Windows programs in wine?
[03:24] <CheshireViking> ferronica, thats good, that shows that your 3d is working correctly now
[03:25] <mmartinez> I'm trying to install kismet on my Ubunts....thing is....when building the dependency tree..it determines that there are dependency files missing. What's the syntax for retreiving those? apt-get install -f    ?
[03:25] <fredl> mmartinez, apt-get -f install
[03:25] <ferronica> CheshireViking: when i close that window it showed me error
[03:25] <fredl> (I think)
[03:25] <CheshireViking> you could try typing "glxgears - printfps" that should start scrolling a list of numbers on screen, the higher the number, the faster it works
[03:25] <ferronica> CheshireViking: X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).
[03:25] <ptrbee> when i plug in & od a dmesg i get [ 7554.964608]  usb 4-2: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2
[03:25] <ptrbee> [ 7555.164813]  usb 4-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[03:26] <jester626> well, I have not tried any other programs, DW is the only windows app I need to run under linux, Ubuntu provides me with excellent alternatives to mostother windows apps.
[03:26] <takesinn> Pyranix: 3D acceleration works.. in root mode :P
[03:26] <CheshireViking> ferronica, that error is ok, its just because you closed the application
[03:26] <takesinn> But I'm using envy nonetheless
[03:26] <takesinn> If it automates the process it's all the better ^
[03:26] <jester626> If I can get DW to work on Linux, I can totally toss out my M$ machine
[03:26] <takesinn> ^^;;
[03:26] <ferronica> CheshireViking: But there is no my nvidia icon diaplay
[03:26] <ptrbee> but nothing changes in ls /dev/
[03:26] <naylor> hi can anyone please help me with an nvidia installer problem, here's the log file: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11171/
[03:26] <scumbag> is there any way to use direct 3d on xgl session?
[03:26] <Pyranix> takesinn: are you in root or user?
[03:27] <fredl> jester626, in that case it might be better to ask wine experts to help you with your problem. Not that you can't ask here but I think your chance here is somewhat limited.
[03:27] <CheshireViking> CheshireViking, i'm not sure what you mean by that last thing you said
[03:27] <CheshireViking> ferronica, (i'm cracking up talking to myself), i'm not sure what you mean by that last thing you said
[03:27] <jester626> was kind of assuming that, but since I am running Ubuntu, I thought I'd try here first
[03:28] <fredl> jester626, I for one have long ago tossed out my MS Windows and wine :)
[03:28] <Alam_Ubuntu> jester626, #winehq
[03:28] <gnomefreak> ferronica: you wont see an icon and please stop trolling
[03:28] <ferronica> CheshireViking: i mean only window open to confirmation
[03:28] <asad2005> fetchmail -vk doesnot keep the messages in the server what could be wrong
[03:28] <jester626> well, I have not found a suitable replacement for Dw, I have tried Nvu, Quantas, Bluefish, but none of them compare to DW
[03:29] <fredl> jester626, well it's sometimes hard to find where to start :) After all I also just asked a question about firefox :)
[03:29] <mmartinez> Ok..so I got the syntax right. Thanks for confirming fred1. My ish came back with statments that some repositories or db were not found. Where is this list where I add the repository list?
[03:29] <ferronica> gnomefreak: sorry i just wanna try to understand :(
[03:29] <takesinn> here I go again
[03:29] <scumbag> is there any way to run direct 3d in an xgl session??
[03:29] <fredl> jester626, hmm, I sometimes use Quantas, it's pretty cool, but the bottom line is, I still use vi for nearly any editting job :)
[03:29] <ferronica> CheshireViking: Ok now how do i install my tremulous which was saved in desktop????
[03:29] <fredl> well, vim :)
[03:29] <CheshireViking> ferronica, i'm sorry, that doesn't mean anything to me, if you see the 3 gears on screen, that shows that 3d is working ok, you should be able to install that game now
[03:30] <ferronica> CheshireViking: Okay
[03:30] <froydin1> aoirthoir: FIXED :D
[03:30] <ferronica> CheshireViking: Ok now how do i install my tremulous which was saved in desktop????
[03:30] <CheshireViking> ferronica, i don't know about the game, i've not heard of it before today - give me a sec, i'll see if i can find a how to for you to follow though
[03:30] <fredl> mmartinez, the list of repositories is in /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:30] <FlimFlamMan> is it possible to install subversion 1.2 and 1.3 on the same edgy machine?
[03:30] <froydin1> aoirthoir: I changed the default browser in the prefferred applications, works finenow :D
[03:31] <jester626> heh, well I'm not that accomplished and I like the way DW interfaces with PHP and MySQL saves time debugging my poor typing skills
[03:31] <mmartinez> fred1...how long you been linuxing?
[03:31] <ferronica> CheshireViking: i am using Ubuntu 6.06 LTS Dapper Drake
[03:31] <mmartinez> btw...thanks again!
[03:31] <Alam_Ubuntu> jester626, this DW? http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iAppId=183
[03:31] <fredl> mmartinez, ehr... since kernel 0.9 or so.
[03:31] <fredl> that's one long time ago :P
[03:31] <mmartinez> sound like it...
[03:31] <aoirthoir> good froydin1
[03:31] <froydin1> naylor: R u trying to install ur nvidia drivers ?
[03:32] <froydin1> aoirthoir: Yah, thx for the help anyway man
[03:32] <aoirthoir> ok i have this gnomebaker..but it doesnt seem to give me any option for multisession...is it automatic
[03:32] <aoirthoir> no prob
[03:32] <mmartinez> long enough to have done pretty much all there is to do to within it...huh?
[03:32] <jester626> Yep, that be the one
[03:32] <fredl> mmartinez, LOL, don't think so :P but yeah I've done a lot, but there's SO much one can do...
[03:32] <jester626> lincoln9
[03:33] <MTecknology> I'm logged into a Samba session from the command line, I connected from the directory I want to copy to the samba and I know I need to use the 'put' command, but how do I put the entire directory that I'm in?
[03:33] <FlimFlamMan> what's the best way to install a svn 1.2 version of subversion on a machine that already has 1.3 installed?
[03:33] <fredl> mmartinez, and still enjoying it :) Linux was one of my first exposures to Unix, and as Unix is now my core business, I owe a lot to Linux :)
[03:34] <mmartinez> fred1: I was attempting to learn how user profiles are managed within Linux? I know ther eis a .profile for each or individual user accounts.
[03:34] <mmartinez> nice...
[03:34] <naylor> froydin1, yeah that's right
[03:34] <fredl> well which file gets 'sourced' and if it even gets 'sourced' at all depends on which shell you're running and how you start it up mmartinez.
[03:35] <mmartinez> fred1: you know....Linux seems feasable, it's just the syntax and the sequence of these that is what stumps me....
[03:35] <fredl> mmartinez, usually your shell in Linux will be bash and then $HOME/.profile or $HOME/.bash_profile or $HOME/.bashrc are important.
[03:35] <froydin1> naylor: have u tryed envy ?
[03:35] <froydin1> !envy | naylor
[03:35] <fredl> mmartinez, are you a student?
[03:35] <ubotu> naylor: 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
[03:35] <mmartinez> cool...I user your entry there to further research...
[03:36] <drogba> lol
[03:36] <mmartinez> yes....
[03:36] <drogba> hello
[03:36] <christof> someone know how we can do to have the bandwith used by a soft?
[03:36] <mmartinez> I've recently moved from Windows to Linux and I am eager, but, I beleive my eagerness causes me to misinterpret the man pages....
[03:37] <fredl> mmartinez, well in that case, think of Linux as a complex math problem or physics problem..... you usually have to study those for a loooong time until suddenly all the pieces fall together and you wonder to yourself 'how come I had to look at this for so long to understand it?'
[03:37] <mmartinez> fred1: yeah...it's getting to that point that is eating at me....
[03:37] <Svish> how can I create a file from commandline?
[03:37] <fredl> mmartinez, if you're just learning Linux, be prepared to read over, and over and over the manual pages again until the coin suddenly drops.
[03:37] <mmartinez> fred1: but, I am enjoying it...
[03:38] <CheshireViking> ferronica, have a look at this webpage, i think that should help you install the game http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=332277 - it looks like you can install it through synaptic as well
[03:38] <fredl> haha, I always found it a real trip, but then again, I loved mathematics and I knew that if I'd beat my head against it long enough I'd eventually figure it out.
[03:39] <ferronica> CheshireViking: but i have already downloded it from site and saved it on desktop
[03:39] <ferronica> CheshireViking: :(
[03:39] <fredl> anyway, I'm outta here, laterz.
[03:39] <mmartinez> fred1: oh no....tell me a scholarly knowledge of MATH and PHYSICS isn't required....or I'm doomed...
[03:39] <ferronica> CheshireViking: now how to install it from desktop
[03:40] <CheshireViking> ferronica, it also give some info on what to do with the file you've downloaded - but i'd recommend installing from synaptic if possible - at least you'll know it'll automatically be configured and packed to suit ubuntu
[03:41] <ferronica> CheshireViking: i just typed that comand on terminal got error
[03:41] <CheshireViking> ferronica, what error?
[03:41] <ferronica> CheshireViking: E: Couldn't find package tremulous
[03:41] <ferronica> CheshireViking: i am using Ubuntu 6.06 LTS Dapper Drake
[03:41] <m1_r0> !wlan
[03:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wlan - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:41] <CheshireViking> ferronica,you said you'd downloaded it to your desktop, did you cd to Desktop first?
[03:42] <ferronica> CheshireViking: thats why jube told me to download it from site
[03:42] <noway_> Can I have apt tell me info on a package? like where it was installed to?
[03:42] <Svish> nevermind... figured it out. touch filename
[03:42] <aoirthoir> Svish: to create a file from the command line use touch. touch filename ...alternatively some programs will allow you to specify a file name and if it does not exist, will offer the ability to save it at the right time eg. nano myfile
[03:42] <m1_r0> !wifi
[03:42] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:42] <Svish> lol
[03:42] <ferronica> nope
[03:42] <CheshireViking> ferronica, you'll need to do that first, then run the command it gives you on the website
[03:42] <aoirthoir> Svish: even though you figured it out before I finished typing..you still owe me BIG TIME...or not..and I mean it..I think.
[03:43] <scumbag> can anyone tell me how to merge two partitions that on either side of the root partition "partition1 - root - partition2"???
[03:43] <kghunt> can any1 help I am having some issues with beryl very buggy
[03:43] <I3ooI3oo> aoirtoir don't you mean karma owes you ?
[03:43] <I3ooI3oo> kghunt whats the problem
[03:43] <aoirthoir> dear god no i have bad karma
[03:43] <Svish> aoirthoir: hehe
[03:44] <I3ooI3oo> and you might want to try #ubuntu-effects
[03:44] <mc44> is there a command for creating an empty file with a given name?
[03:44] <lastn0de> mc44, touch
[03:44] <lastn0de> mc44, touch filename
[03:44] <ferronica> CheshireViking: ok i typed on terminal "cd desktop"
[03:44] <Svish> aoirthoir: well, you can help me with another thing instead, what if I want a simple line of text in the file? but dont want to open any editor?
[03:44] <scumbag> can anyone tell me how to merge two partitions that on either side of the root partition "partition1 - root - partition2"???
[03:44] <mc44> lastn0de: aha, thanks
[03:44] <ferronica> CheshireViking: ENTER
[03:44] <lastn0de> mc44, np :-)
[03:44] <I3ooI3oo> mc44 : touch filename
[03:44] <CheshireViking> ferronica, ok,
[03:45] <MTecknology> Can somebody tell me what I'm doing wrong? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11173/
[03:45] <ferronica> CheshireViking: got error
[03:45] <ferronica> CheshireViking: bash: cd: desktop: No such file or directory
[03:45] <lastn0de> ferronica, it's Desktop
[03:45] <CheshireViking> ferronica, it should be a capital D for Desktop
[03:46] <lastn0de> ferronica, you can hit capital D and then <tab>, it should auto complete it for you
[03:46] <CheshireViking> ferronica, ubuntu is case sensitive desktop is not the same as Desktop
[03:46] <ferronica> CheshireViking: Ok i am on desktop
[03:46] <ferronica> CheshireViking: then
[03:46] <CheshireViking> ferronica, ok, type ls, does that list the file that you downloaded?
[03:47] <ferronica> CheshireViking: showed me file
[03:47] <aoirthoir> svish you can use a pipe perhaps
[03:47] <lastn0de> Svish, echo "this is the text i want in this file" | filename
[03:47] <lastn0de> sorry
[03:47] <lastn0de> >> not |
[03:48] <lastn0de> wait, a pipe works too, right?
[03:48] <lastn0de> meh
[03:48] <noway_> Is there an apt command to tell where a package was installed to?
[03:48] <zzz_> lastn0de: A pipe works when a program is used, not a file name.
[03:48] <aoirthoir> no pipe doesnt work....the > does
[03:48] <CheshireViking> ferronica, right ok, you should be able to follow the commands given on the webpage to install it now - just make sure that the filename on the website is the same as the name of the file you've downloaded (your file may be an updated file) - if it is, use the name of your file
[03:48] <lastn0de> zzz_, thanks
[03:48] <lastn0de> :-)
[03:49] <aoirthoir> echo "why cant I just kill myself, slowly, painfully, since it would save me from ever having to deal with doze again" > killmyselfnow.txt
[03:49] <aoirthoir> Svish: i recommend the linux pocket guide from oreilly media...it has been a big help to me (personally I also use safari.oreilly.com..but thats forty bucks a month..lots of folks dont want tos pend it.)
[03:49] <ferronica> CheshireViking: which command
[03:50] <ferronica> CheshireViking: i have downloded whole game 101 MB
[03:50] <Svish> aoirthoir: ok
[03:50] <ferronica> CheshireViking: i just need to install it
[03:50] <r3factored> anyone know of any linux-based apps for creating macromedia-compatible flash apps?
[03:51] <Svish> aoirthoir: it doesnt work.. I get bash: test.txt: Permission denied
[03:51] <CheshireViking> ferronica, from the website "To install .run files, open the terminal and run a 'chmod +x [filename.run] ' to make it executable and then you can invoke it by either "./[filename] .run" or "sudo ./[filename] .run" if it requires root permissions."
[03:51] <Svish> aoirthoir: and I did sudo.. which usually makes everything work :P
[03:51] <aoirthoir> Svish: that is a permission issue..you dont have rights in the directory..you want instead to do it in a place you ahve rights
[03:52] <Svish> but I did sudo :(
[03:52] <lastn0de> Svish, do a chown on it. man chown for more info :-)
[03:52] <my-nick> someone help me regarding fsck
[03:52] <CheshireViking> ferronica, for this file i would do "chmod +x tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run"
[03:52] <aoirthoir> brb my beryl crashed which means I have to restart x
[03:52] <lastn0de> my-nick, i can try. ask away
[03:52] <Svish> ok
[03:52] <my-nick> i get this error
[03:52] <Svish> is there any channel here I can get help with jsp?
[03:52] <Svish> !jsp

[03:54] <my-nick> lasn0de
[03:54] <lastn0de> my-nick, sorry, i cant understand what you are asking help for
[03:54] <CheshireViking> ferronica, followed by "./tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run" to install it
[03:54] <ferronica> CheshireViking: "chmod +x tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run" typed this command
[03:54] <my-nick> its like this:
[03:54] <lastn0de> my-nick, sumthing2 doesnt help. pleas ebe specific
[03:54] <my-nick> i boot up my laptop n an error came up
[03:54] <CheshireViking> ferronica, if nothing happened ie no error message, that should mean the command worked
[03:55] <Pici> !enter
[03:55] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:55] <my-nick> okay
[03:55] <my-nick> its on my other laptop
[03:55] <my-nick> gonna restart it
[03:55] <lastn0de> ok
[03:55] <Svish> lastn0de: are you able to join ##java? It doesnt work here..
[03:56] <ferronica> CheshireViking: i just copied and paste this command "chmod +x tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run"
[03:56] <lastn0de> Svish, do /join ##java - yes i did try it
[03:56] <CheshireViking> ferronica, try that second command now - hopefully, that should install the game for you - beyond that, i don't have anything extra to suggest
[03:56] <Svish> lastn0de: it doesnt work here :S
[03:56] <my-nick> ok
[03:56] <my-nick> here it goes
[03:56] <lastn0de> Svish, try /join #java then
[03:56] <lastn0de> tehre is a redirect iirl
[03:56] <my-nick> "checking file systems.."
[03:56] <Svish> lastn0de: tried that too
[03:56] <lastn0de> my-nick, we dont need a play by play. just tell us the error
[03:56] <Svish> nothing happens
[03:57] <my-nick> fsck.ext3: Unable to resolve 'UUid=sumthing
[03:57] <my-nick> 2 similar errors with different UUID
[03:57] <Svish> but /join #foobar worked... am I blocked or something?
[03:57] <Svish> lol
[03:57] <Lumien> I need some assistance - im running ubuntu 6.1, root is still
[03:57] <Lumien>           disabled, I am ssh'd in and I must have changed my users group
[03:57] <Lumien>           rather than adding it to an additional group, b/c now I can't sudo.
[03:57] <Lumien>           I know that single user mode is an option, but I'm not onsite. any
[03:57] <my-nick> and it said fsck died with exit status 8
[03:57] <Lumien>           suggestions for getting root access back while I am still remote? I
[03:57] <Lumien>           have reg user access through ssh console, nxviewer, and vncviewer.
[03:57] <Lumien> sorry for the paste
[03:57] <my-nick> File system status check failed
[03:57] <ferronica> CheshireViking: this command worked "./tremulous-1.1.0-installer.x86.run"
[03:58] <ferronica> CheshireViking: Installing
[03:58] <my-nick> Please repair the file system manuallly
[03:58] <ferronica> CheshireViking: what was previous command
[03:58] <my-nick> "A maintenance shell will now be started"
[03:58] <my-nick> CONTROL-D willterminate this shell and resume system boot"
[03:58] <my-nick> lastn0de?
[03:59] <CheshireViking> ferronica, the first command was the chmod to change the file attributes to an executable file, if that hadn't worked, the game woiuldn't be installing now - so must have worked
[03:59] <lastn0de> my-nick, oh right. so go to maintenance and fsck the disk
[03:59] <lastn0de> or better, fsck it from a live cd
[03:59] <Stev1> hey! pretty new to ubuntu, was wondering if this beryl 3D stuff is worth it?
[03:59] <guille1983> i edited the cron file, now what do i have to do in order to see the result ?
[03:59] <ferronica> CheshireViking: ok installed now from where to start game
[03:59] <lastn0de> Stev1, well, it's pretty :-) give it a go if you've got some time to tweak.
[04:00] <my-nick> lastn0de: i've done it
[04:00] <lastn0de> ferronica, dude, he hasn't played it. :-) look in your menus.
[04:00] <phaethon_> stev1, i'm pretty nub to linux in general, install of beryl was pretty easy.. and looks awesome :D
[04:00] <my-nick> still got the same thing every reboot
[04:00] <my-nick> n it didnt fix anything through fsck
[04:00] <ferronica> CheshireViking: Errors
[04:00] <lastn0de> my-nick, hmmm, weird. i remember this eror but cant rememebr how i fixed it.
[04:00] <Stev1> does it slow the computer?
[04:01] <Lumien> is there a way to access single user mode remotely through ssh?
[04:01] <my-nick> ah
[04:01] <my-nick> at last
[04:01] <CheshireViking> ferronica, i would guess that it will have added something to your applications/games menu, if not, try typing tremolous in terminal
[04:01] <my-nick> the right person
[04:01] <Stev1> ive got onboard graphics
[04:01] <my-nick> oh please remember
[04:01] <my-nick> beg u please
[04:01] <phaethon_> stev1: what chipset?
[04:01] <lastn0de> my-nick, i think i just fscked it. i honestly cant remember.
[04:01] <Stev1> intel
[04:01] <ferronica> CheshireViking: Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C
[04:01] <my-nick> the scenario is, b4 dis i hav an ntfs partition which resides on /dev/sda1
[04:02] <phaethon_> stev1: i dont think i'tll work, but i could be wrong :D
[04:02] <coffeegrindah> is anyone in here proficient with Syslinux, I'm trying to password GRub through it UsB boot)
[04:02] <my-nick> then i formated it to ext3
[04:02] <lastn0de> afk
[04:02] <Stev1> hmmmm
[04:02] <Stev1> i think ill do it anywa
[04:02] <my-nick> the boot went havoc, but i fixed it thru grub's menu.lst
[04:03] <CheshireViking> ferronica, i don't know what that will mean, i've not installed or played the game, if it doesn't run when you try starting it, i think you'll have to see if there's someone around who's used it that can help
[04:03] <my-nick> but now it gave me this error, by, i can still but to X tho
[04:03] <my-nick> *by=but
[04:03] <my-nick> *but=Boot
[04:03] <ferronica> CheshireViking: there is no icon in application
[04:03] <my-nick> stupid typo
[04:03] <my-nick> hrmn
[04:04] <my-nick> how ideas on how can i move my boot partition from sda6 to sda1
[04:04] <my-nick> how about some ideas on how can i move my boot partition from sda6 to sda1
[04:04] <CheshireViking> ferronica, try typing "tremulous" in terminal
[04:05] <jhaig> my-nick: You mean making sda1 the boot partition, or renaming the boot partition to sda1?
[04:05] <ferronica> CheshireViking: command not found
[04:05] <my-nick> boot n moving entirely sda6 to sda1
[04:05] <CheshireViking> ferronica, maybe capital T to start?
[04:06] <my-nick> jhaig: boot n moving entirely sda6 to sda1
[04:06] <ferronica> CheshireViking: bash: Tremulous: command not found
[04:06] <my-nick> or if i installed a new ubuntu, is there any ways that i can restore my current ubuntu, such as wine, etc
[04:07] <jhaig> my-nick: I'm still not entirely sure.  What is currently on sda1 and sda6?
[04:08] <my-nick> sda1=linux artition ext3
[04:08] <my-nick> sda6=boot
[04:08] <my-nick> and root
[04:08] <my-nick> and /
[04:08] <GuHhH> is there any repository to install wine?
[04:08] <nerochiaro> hi, anyone knows if somewhere there are packages of QT4.2 or higher for dapper ?
[04:08] <erik> hey, has anyone successfully install Ubuntu on an UltraSparc II workstation?
[04:08] <jhaig> So you want to copy all the data from sda6 to sda1 and then set it to boot from there?
[04:09] <ferronica> CheshireViking: bash: i think some problem
[04:09] <ferronica> CheshireViking:  i think some problem
[04:09] <ed1t> can someone help me install Intel 2915ABG wireless driver ?
[04:09] <ferronica> any one here who installed Tremulous game????
[04:09] <ferronica> any one here who installed Tremulous game????
[04:10] <erik> b/c the OpenBoot firmware doesn't seem to recognize the CD when I use the command boot and the alias CDrom.  I'm returned to the OK prompt after I can see it attempted to boot from the media.
[04:10] <Intangir> i just noticed that ever since installing ubuntu edgy, im only using 1 core of a dual core system...
[04:10] <GuHhH> does anyone knows a repository to install WINE?
[04:10] <Intangir> how do i make it use the other core?
[04:10] <darrend_laptop>  trying to mount an external USB hard disk in feisty - it mounts ok, but assignes permissions 500 to all files/directories in it and has root:root as the owner:group
[04:10] <sethk> Intangir, use the smp version of the kernel
[04:10] <Intangir> GuHhH: deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt dapper main
[04:10] <coffeegrindah> anyone good with syslinux.cfg's?
[04:10] <darrend_laptop> under edgy, the same hard disk mounted fine with permissions that allowed me to see it as a normal user.
[04:10] <s0nix_> Hi all
[04:10] <Intangir> sethk: i dont see an smp version
[04:11] <sethk> darrend_laptop, look at the uid= and gid= options
[04:11] <darrend_laptop>  is this an expected change?
[04:11] <GuHhH> Intangir: thanks
[04:11] <my-nick> jhaig:yes
[04:11] <CheshireViking> ferronica, i don't know then, if i were you I'd have a look at the tremulous website & the questions on there, or try the tremulous irc channel listed on this webpage http://tremulous.net/faq/
[04:11] <sethk> Intangir, Look at your kernel's config file, see if smp is enabled
[04:11] <Intangir> sethk: i see -generic -server -server-bigiron -386
[04:11] <sethk> Intangir, I think server is smp, but generic may be also.  I'll have to look.
[04:12] <darrend_laptop> sethk: where are those options?  The icon appears on the desktop when I plug in (so the hotplug/udev stuff works ok)
[04:12] <s0nix_> anyone can help me with my ATI dual screen setup? My configuratio are perfect in the KDM (logging windows) until i enter my password and log in. then the 2 screen set to "clone" mod.
[04:12] <ferronica> CheshireViking:  what command should i type to go in tremulous channel
[04:12] <gordonjcp> ooo, tremulous
[04:12] <darrend_laptop> sethk: this is a change to how it worked in edgy - I never needed to amend any uid/gid properties there..?
[04:12] <Intangir> sethk: CONFIG_X86_SMP=y
[04:12] <sethk> darrend_laptop, you can add the drive to /etc/fstab, and you can put the options there.  You can also manually umount it, and then mount it again using the options.
[04:12] <Intangir> sethk: CONFIG_SMP=y
[04:12] <Intangir> thats in there..
[04:12] <sethk> Intangir, ok, then you should be seeing it.  let me see if there is a sysctl option for it.
[04:13] <CheshireViking> ferronica, i don't know, you said you were using gaim for irc which i don't use
[04:13] <Intangir> but when i look in cpuinfo it shows only 1 core, also system monitor only monitors 1
[04:13] <darrend_laptop> sethk: ok, but why has this regressed since edgy, any idea?
[04:13] <mjr> s0nix_, you may have to use KDE's resolution settings to set it to dual screen mode
[04:13] <Intangir> and when i compile it maxes out at 100%, even though gcc isnt multithreaded is it?
[04:13] <mjr> s0nix_, I don't know KDE, but in GNOME, you can set your preferred resolution and it'll switch to that durin login, sounds similar
[04:13] <s0nix_> i check the kde option !
[04:13] <s0nix_> 2 sec.
[04:13] <sethk> darrend_laptop, because, I believe, of the automatic mount configuration.  You can find the udev config for it and set it up the way you want it to work
[04:13] <ferronica> CheshireViking:  i use IRC For yahoo chat
[04:14] <mjr> s0nix_, and this includes the clone vs. dual screen settings
[04:14] <hylje> Intangir: i didnt think linux goes over 100% in proc use?
[04:14] <CheshireViking> ferronica, what are you using for this chatroom?
[04:14] <GuHhH> Intangir:  didnt work that repository :(
[04:14] <darrend_laptop> sethk: ok thanks, I'll take a look.  Is there anywhere changes like this are documented?  It seems an odd thing to do - make it harder to access something by default I mean
[04:14] <Intangir> hylje: with a dual core, compiling only takes around 50 something %
[04:14] <sethk> Intangir, I believe gcc is not threaded.
[04:14] <ferronica> CheshireViking:  xchat GNOME
[04:14] <CheshireViking> ferronica, ok
[04:14] <Intangir> GuHhH: works for me, do sudo apt-get update
[04:15] <hylje> sethk: several gcc processes can run simultaneously
[04:15] <sethk> darrend_laptop, I don't know the answer as to what is documented about changes.  udev documentation, of course, exists.
[04:15] <TIRC_> join azureus
[04:15] <Ipv7> k
[04:15] <sethk> hylje, yes, that's true, but irrelevant
[04:15] <erik> gcc s indeed threaded.  I mean it has support for it.
[04:16] <mon^rch> is there a program that will handle .ace files?
[04:16] <sethk> erik, it has support for compiling threaded programs.  It, itself, is not threaded
[04:16] <GuHhH> Intangir: i did
[04:16] <my-nick__> how do i ghost my nick
[04:17] <ferro> :)
[04:17] <GuHhH> Err http://wine.budgetdedicated.com dapper/main Packages
[04:17] <GuHhH>   404 Not Found
[04:17] <hylje> sethk: what the -j option does then?
[04:18] <erik> Hey, is their a way to upgrade cleanly from from Debian Sid to a Ubuntu distro?
[04:18] <freezey> does anybody have experience with Flumotion?
[04:18] <burner> erik: by formatting and installing ubuntu instead :)
[04:18] <sethk> hylje, I have no -j option, at least not when compiling c or c++.
[04:18] <dumezil> does anyone know an gnome applet or anything that will let me show two times (ie china time and us eastern time)?
[04:18] <vrta> hey: how do i clear aptitude "todo list"?
[04:18] <cyberix> I think Ubuntu has a bug. Doing socket.gethostbyname("hostname") in python returns a loopback address. Anyone aware of a related problem?
[04:19] <sethk> cyberix, sounds more like a python bug.  the c library gethostbyname works correctly.
[04:19] <hylje> sethk: very well. i recall gentoo recommending -j<num of procs +1> option
[04:19] <coffeegrindah> syslinux, anyone? I need help with a syslinux.cfg
[04:20] <sethk> hylje, that's a make option, not a gcc option, I believe.
[04:20] <hylje> sethk: ah.
[04:20] <cyberix> sethk: Is there a commandline tool which uses that function?
[04:20] <fredl> are there any tools on Ubuntu to ease banner design?
[04:20] <fredl> (besides gimp, which I don't think is all that easy :)
[04:21] <sethk> cyberix, I believe the "host" utility, which does a DNS lookup, may call it, but I'd have to check to be certain.
[04:21] <cyberix> sethk: It does not.
[04:21] <robby> anybody know how to get wireless working on a fresh install
[04:21] <epl> cyberix: check /etc/hosts
[04:21] <ed1t> robby, what wireless card u got?
[04:22] <s0nix_> mjr: thx, i got it :)
[04:22] <ferronica> CheshireViking:  how to go in tremulous channel
[04:22] <sethk> cyberix, It depends on the settings in /etc/nsswitch.conf.  in some cases it does.
[04:22] <robby> ed1t how can i tell?
[04:22] <cyberix> sethk: Actually I'm not sure.
[04:23] <cyberix> epl: Ok. There is the problem. I wonder where the entry came from.
[04:23] <cyberix> And, if there is a purpose for it
[04:23] <epl> cyberix: I think the ubuntu installer creates it
[04:23] <hylje> oh by the way, how .an i prevent the ubuntu cd from spinning down during installation
[04:23] <vrta> any way to run GAIM in commandline ?
[04:23] <epl> cyberix: don't know for what purpose though
[04:23] <hylje> this laptop dies if it does
[04:23] <CheshireViking> ferronica, I don't know, i'm at a loss now, i think you need to ask generally in here & to see if there;s anybody who can help you
[04:24] <sethk> cyberix, if you mean localhost in /etc/hosts, it must be there.
[04:24] <Intangir> sethk: i found it, -generic supports SMP, -386 doesnt, it was booting -386 by default ;()
[04:24] <ferronica> CheshireViking:  what you use to chat
[04:24] <ferronica> CheshireViking:  GAIM
[04:24] <sethk> Intangir, ok, now it makes sense.
[04:24] <robby> ed1t, how can i tell?
[04:24] <CheshireViking> ferronica, i use the same as you, but i couldn't get onto the quakenet irc server
[04:24] <epl> sethk: the ubuntu installer creates an entry like: 127.0.0.1 localhost alias
[04:25] <sethk> epl, that's correct, and that entry is necessary
[04:25] <epl> sethk: do you have any idea why?
[04:25] <holycow> !time
[04:25] <ubotu> time: The GNU time program for measuring cpu resource usage. In component main, is standard. Version 1.7-21 (edgy), package size 31 kB, installed size 144 kB
[04:25] <sethk> epl, because the name localhost is compiled into quite a few programs.
[04:25] <epl> sethk: for what is the alias part necessary?
[04:25] <epl> sethk: im talking about the additional alias and not about the localhost part
[04:26] <ferronica> CheshireViking: http://tremulous.net/faq/
[04:26] <sethk> epl, usually you'll see localhost and localhost.localdomain.  I don't see any aliases, though
[04:26] <Intangir> sethk: whats PREEMPT mean on my kernel?
[04:26] <robby> anybody know how to get wireless internet on a fresh install of edgy?
[04:26] <sethk> epl, but this box isn't running 6.1.  I'll look at my 6.1 box
[04:26] <sethk> Intangir, means that system calls are interruptable
[04:26] <cyberix> sethk: I had an entry saying "127.0.1.1      myhostname"
[04:26] <Intangir> sethk: is that good? my -generic kernel doesnt have it
[04:26] <sethk> cyberix, that's very odd.
[04:26] <Intangir> sethk: but my old dapper kernel does
[04:27] <sethk> Intangir, preempt reduces latency, and so makes the desktop more responsive.  It has a small cost in performance.
[04:27] <my-nick___> help

[04:28] <cyberix> Unrelated to the dns problem I also noticed that my computer ignores one of my two processors at startup. It tells me there is a limit set somewhere. Can I change the limit to 2 somehow? I'm running the latest Edgy generic kernel.
[04:28] <mmartinez> I think I know how we can fix it....
[04:29] <GuHhH> Intangir: it doesn`t have support for 64bits yet?
[04:29] <CheshireViking> ferronica, if that doesn't work, i can't help anymore i'm afraid
[04:29] <hylje> gah
[04:29] <fredl_> Hmm

[04:42] <antiquim> im new to linux and dont know much
[04:42] <froydinn> a
[04:43] <ferronica> #tremulous irc.quakenet.org. how to open this channel
[04:43] <antiquim> can anyone help me out?
[04:44] <merc> antiquim: there's a quick howto on the forums
[04:44] <antiquim> oh thanks
[04:44] <merc> antiquim: im pretty sure it only consists of one command, but i dont recall what it is
[04:44] <waxyfresh> !upgrade | antiquim
[04:44] <ubotu> antiquim: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[04:44] <my-nick___> epl
[04:44] <dyrne> antiquim: basically gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list  do a search and replace for breezy/dapper or whatever then sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[04:44] <my-nick___> can u help me regarding fsck?
[04:45] <waxyfresh> antiquim: update your sources.list then sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[04:45] <wick2o> good morning
[04:45] <dyrne> antiquim: you need to update the repo name to whatever version youre upgrading to
[04:45] <Froyd> antiquim: I tryed that but i really think best way to do its a fresh install of the 6.10 image
[04:45] <epl> my-nick: perhaps
[04:45] <waxyfresh> can you update 5.10 straight to fiesty by useing the fiesty sources.list?
[04:46] <dyrne> antiquim: ideal thing is when you install make /home a seperate parttion so you can reinstall whenever and have all your configs instact but dist-upgrade usually wokrs
[04:46] <wick2o> anyone good with a preseed file? im tring to figure out how to get my preseed to run a series of custom shell commands on the /target (ie echo "auto eth1 >> /target/etc/networking/interfaces")
[04:46] <epl> waxyfresh: you can, but as far as I know the recommended way to upgrade is through each consecutive version
[04:46] <wick2o> and then copy some files from the cd into the /target/etc folder
[04:46] <wick2o> id rather not create a shell script that id have to manually log in and run after the install

[05:13] <Slart> AcidEyE: fixed ip or dynamic ip? is the dhcp client working alright+

[05:14] <fdr> hello... what is the best way to install an rpm on my ubuntu? Using alien and converting it to deb ? thanks!
[05:14] <Stormx2> oswaldo: Check ubuntuforums.org?
[05:14] <Stormx2> fdr: Try and avoid using alien. Compiling, using repos, or finding a deb is better.
[05:14] <N3WB> Stormx2: to install TuxRacer :p
[05:15] <Stormx2> N3WB: Thats in the repos isn't it?
[05:15] <oswaldo> yeah the problem is that not find a good repository
[05:15] <fdr> Stormx2: I agree, but I need to install VMWare server... are there any alternatives?
[05:15] <fdr> (to using alien, i mean)
[05:15] <Stormx2> fdr: Actually theres a guide for installing that...

[05:50] <predaeus> ferronica, what does it say?
[05:50] <sdac221x_> hi, my xubuntu edgy sometimes freezes when i logout giving me a gray screen.  I then have to force-shutdown machine.  ANY ideas ??
[05:50] <frandavid100> jamesbrose: it appears on "computer" but does not mount, and gparted hangs when it tries to access it
[05:50] <ferronica> i downloded  it from site, and saved it on desktop ok
[05:51] <scumba1> any partitioning expert in here?
[05:51] <frandavid100> it says...     Cannot mount volume: Invalid mount option when attempting to mount the volume.
[05:51] <ferronica> predaeus: to install it i use terminal
[05:51] <ferronica> predaeus: in terminal it show  me error
[05:51] <Seveas> ferronica, delete that and install with applications -> add/remove
[05:51] <predaeus> ferronica: what error?
[05:52] <frandavid100> nevermind my last message, it's because something I just did
[05:52] <ferronica> Seveas: i am using ubuntu 6.06 LTS Dapper Drake

[05:55] <shuffle2> hi all i just installed ubuntu server in a VM to play around with phpBB3....my problem is that i need some directories in /var/www/apache-default/ to be writable. how can i do this via command line?
[05:55] <neozen> chmod
[05:56] <neozen> man chmod
[05:56] <ferronica> predaeus: how to uninstall whatever installed
[05:56] <Flannel> shuffle2: /var/www is your DocumentRoot
[05:56] <shafto> Okay im trying to follow the community documentation to install WINE, yet when i try install it says i need to update 'libgphoto2-2' and 'libgphoto2-port0', how exactly do i update them?
[05:56] <shuffle2> hehe yeah i was trying chmod last night, and i couldn't get the syntax right....ended up banning all users except root somehow
[05:57] <neozen> shuffle2: lol
[05:57] <ferronica> predaeus: and i tried to search from Add/Remove didnt found Tremulous
[05:57] <predaeus> ferronica, not sure. I think the tremulous installer just unpacks. So you could just delete the tremulous directory. But I am not sure there. To run it just run the tremulous.x86 binary in the tremulous folder where you unpacked it(the installer installed to).
[05:57] <shuffle2> Flannel: should i just apply the changes to /var/www/*?
[05:57] <neozen> shuffle2: yeah... yout can get yourself in a lot of trouble with chmod
[05:57] <ayam> shuffle2: start to read the manual :)
[05:57] <predaeus> ferronica, yes I think it is not available in the Dapper repositories, only in Edgy and newer.
[05:57] <neozen> shuffle2: and do things you can't undo
[05:58] <octoberdan> What configures packages for dpkg?
[05:58] <ferronica> predaeus: yes its not there
[05:58] <octoberdan> Is there a seperate program?
[05:58] <predaeus> ferronica, do you know where it installed to?
[05:58] <shuffle2> good thing i'm only in a virtual machine :)
[05:58] <neozen> shuffle2: yes.... yes it is
[05:58] <lm_> hey hey, does ubuntu recognize old home folders, or does it delete them when beein reinstalled?
[05:58] <lm_> *beeing
[05:58] <ferronica> predaeus: In home folder there is directory
[05:59] <predaeus> octoberdan, not sure what you are looking for. but there is dpkg-reconfigure
[05:59] <octoberdan> Debuab yses debconf, is it the same with ubuntu?
[05:59] <ferronica> predaeus: there is directory named Tremulous
[05:59] <neozen> lm_: it should recognize old ones..... depending on what filesystem the partition is in
[05:59] <octoberdan> *Debian uses debconf
[05:59] <lm_> uhmm...
[05:59] <predaeus> ferronica, then double click on the tremulous.x86 file to run it. or open a terminal and run it from there.
[06:00] <ferronica> predaeus: You mean no need to reinstall or delete that directory
[06:00] <slyfox> What do I need to install to make this work?  "checking for XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool"
[06:00] <neozen> I believe its libxml-perl
[06:00] <predaeus> ferronica, what for? that is very likely the game directory. do you want to run the game or remove it?

[06:16] <ubotu> Pollywog: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[06:16] <Pollywog> that is my question... well if they work

[06:21] <gorion> hi
[06:21] <nol> i downloaded openchrome drivers for s3 chipset
[06:21] <fblade> how can i fix my corrupted suoders file

[06:21] <Pollywog> soundray: I had not heard of that brand
[06:21] <soundray> nol: which version of ubuntu have you got
[06:22] <gorion> what shows me variable $0 ?
[06:22] <nol> its in a deb file, im new to this linux, just installed it on a spare box and hooked up to my network
[06:22] <nol> ubuntu 5.04
[06:22] <UB`> I think you have to upgrade your version nol
[06:22] <UB`> it would be better
[06:22] <soundray> nol: in later versions of ubuntu, your graphics card is supported "out of the box".

[06:23] <Pollywog> grimboy: KDE?

[06:24] <EADG> Whats the command to view all hdd and partition info in Bash?
[06:24] <Pollywog> fblade: what did you do?

[06:31] <netham45> never tried that one
[06:31] <fblade> please i just want to get back to how it use to be
[06:31] <Pollywog> k
[06:32] <soundray> fblade: is 'matt' the first user you created on the system?
[06:32] <Pollywog> fblade let me look at mine
[06:32] <fblade> the only user other then root
[06:32] <Slart> Agrajag: sweet.. just what I was looking for.. thanks
[06:32] <soundray> fblade: are you logged in as matt at this moment?
[06:32] <fblade> soundray yeah
[06:33] <soundray> fblade: run 'groups'. Is 'admin' listed?
[06:33] <ferronica> Is there any game for single player in doom
[06:33] <ferronica> or something like that
[06:33] <fblade> soundray i can run that for some reason think its to do with this
[06:33] <ferronica> my net connection is bit slow
[06:33] <VSpike> pollywog: well, I might as well give it a go on a "spare" machine.. any reason why not?
[06:33] <Frolicols> hi guys, need to add printer on ubuntu notebook, printer is canon mp500 attached to windows desktop, shared over w/less
[06:33] <netham45> so is mine...
[06:33] <soundray> fblade: you can't run the command "groups" in a terminal?
[06:33] <fblade> ca\nt*
[06:33] <Pollywog> VSpike: if it's a spare machine, no reason not to try it
[06:34] <fblade> oh sorry not tried in terminal
[06:34] <ferronica> Is there any game for single player  doom
[06:34] <dixon__> i'm just wondering - is there some ATI PowerPlay applet ???
[06:34] <fblade> yeah admin is in the list
[06:34] <AaronCampbell> Should this work fine under Ubuntu (I *think* it's fully hardware...I was hoping someone might know for sure): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816116042
[06:34] <CharlieChester> anyone know how to default the kering password which is prompted for by the gnome network manager?
[06:34] <ForsakenSoul> hi ... i`m trying to access my mp3 files in my network pc with XMMS and it doesn`t play the ... i`ve dowloader codecs ... i`ve just downloaded one of the files i was trying to access to this pc and it works
[06:35] <Frolicols> ferronica: http://www.doomworld.com/ports/linux_unix.shtml
[06:35] <ForsakenSoul> why can`t i play it from the other pc
[06:35] <ForsakenSoul> ?
[06:35] <fblade> soundray: admin is on the list
[06:35] <pisedoffcracker1> anyone know a beryl repos that are working today?
[06:35] <dixon__> CharlieChester: I think there's no default password. First when I used connection with WPA, It asked me to set up the default password
[06:35] <VSpike> Pollywog: Sure is... are the system requirements significantly heavier than previous versions do you know? I can't find them anywhere
[06:35] <dyrne> ForsakenSoul: other pc windows or linux? what are you using samba or sshfs or what?
[06:35] <soundray> fblade: in that case you have to reboot and select 'recovery mode' from the boot menu. When it's booted, run 'visudo'. Reconstruct the sudoers file along the lines of mine, which I'll post on the pastebin in a minute.
[06:35] <ForsakenSoul> win
[06:36] <Pollywog> AaronCampbell: did you see the review on that page that says it has excellent Linux support?
[06:36] <martin__> I just logged in, and X seems locked, I can't click anything (I type this from tty1, irssi) what can I do?
[06:36] <fblade> ok thanks
[06:36] <Pollywog> VSpike I am not sure about that
[06:36] <AaronCampbell> But most everyone (that I saw) was talking about redhat (fedora, etc)...wanted to make sure it worked on Ubuntu
[06:36] <soundray> fblade: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11191/
[06:37] <Frolicols> anyone?
[06:37] <marcus__> question: I've always been running debian but since I'm spreading out linux to my relatives I think it might be good changing everything to ubuntu since it's got a little more user friendly wiki etc, anyway, I never really understood if it's possible to have something alike "stable" in sources.list to that it'll use all the new soft from stable releases, is this possible?
[06:37] <Pollywog> AaronCampbell: yes I see that only Fedora is mentioned specifically
[06:37] <Pollywog> AaronCampbell: you might try Google Linux
[06:37] <soundray> Frolicols: you need a driver for that printer that isn't supplied with edgy.
[06:38] <Desmaano> hello all
[06:38] <Enselic> in irssi, how do I toggle between different "windows"?
[06:38] <ubuntu_> czesc wszystkim
[06:38] <dixon__> cest cest ;)
[06:38] <fblade> thanks i will try
[06:38] <VSpike> Pollywog: Ah well - I'll soon find out :)  I can always sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop if it sucks speedwise
[06:38] <Desmaano> Question : how can i set up a file server with ubuntu ??
[06:39] <ubuntu_> co robicie?
[06:39] <dixon__> ubuntu_: nic take
[06:39] <soundray> Frolicols: wait for feisty or buy a driver from Turboprint.
[06:39] <Frolicols> soundray:  I thought so, I was trying to find a suitable alt like turboprint?
[06:39] <VSpike> Pollywog: when I say "soon" i mean in 3 hours when the ISO downloads
[06:39] <Frolicols> lol, beat me to it
[06:39] <Pollywog> marcus__: if Ubuntu does not work out for the newbies you can try Linspire or Freespire because they are very newbie friendly even if not too geek friendly
[06:39] <ForsakenSoul> any ideas how i can access my mp3 files using ubuntu XMMS player ... i`m trying to connect win mp3 files
[06:39] <ubuntu_> bawimy sie?
[06:39] <ForsakenSoul> in a closed network
[06:39] <BehindYou> ubuntu_: gadamy sobie
[06:40] <Desmaano> !fileserver

[06:41] <ubuntu_> Wlasnie testuje Linuxa Ubuntu i tak wszedlem sobie w Czat ;)
[06:42] <soundray> netbug: no, if you follow the routine installation, no extra activation is necessary

[06:42] <eternalswd> does anyone know of a dbus build >= 0.95 for edgy?
[06:42] <ubuntu_> BehindYou skad jestes?
[06:42] <Desmaano> Vspike: Samba, for a simple home server with windows and mac systems
[06:43] <bafoc> !samba
[06:43] <VSpike> Desmaano: You don't need a user signed in for fileserver access
[06:43] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[06:43] <netbug> soundray: but now it says that i have to activate the partition in xp?
[06:43] <VSpike> Desmaano: Have you got samba installed and working, or is that where you're stuck?
[06:43] <soundray> netbug: who or what says that?
[06:43] <Desmaano> but how can i acces my desktop from the server ?
[06:43] <ForsakenSoul> is there a way to connect my mp3 files that are on another pc equiped with windowsXP using XMMS Player
[06:44] <netbug> soundray: the windows installation said that?
[06:44] <Desmaano> i mean the desktop from the server, from my 'normal' machine ?
[06:44] <VSpike> Desmaano: You mean the files in ~/Desktop or what?
[06:44] <soundray> netbug: well, it's not true.
[06:44] <Desmaano> by vnc acces, i got that working but therefor i need to log in everytime
[06:44] <rbil> ForsakenSoul: just setup a share on the Windoze side
[06:44] <netbug> soundray: but it wont boot?
[06:44] <VSpike> Oh you want VNC as well.. you said Samba :)
[06:44] <eternalswd> ForsakenSoul, just share the folder that has the mp3s and then you can mount the samba share
[06:44] <marcus__> Pollywog: noway :) (thx for tips anyway), still, I've heard that running unstable is possible, thus this is much more unstable than debian unstable.. part of the reason walking over to ubuntu is that I don't really like the stable releases of debian...
[06:45] <ForsakenSoul> rbil : done it but my player wont play them
[06:45] <soundray> ForsakenSoul: yes, you have to share the directory in Windows and mount it in Ubuntu via fstab.
[06:45] <VSpike> Desmaano: ^
[06:45] <aldin> can u do update ? http://pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org/11193/
[06:45] <ForsakenSoul> samba share
[06:45] <Desmaano> VSpike: Sambe for the files to store them on the server, vnc to change settings :)
[06:45] <ForsakenSoul> ?
[06:45] <ubuntu_> Linux is the best!
[06:45] <soundray> ForsakenSoul: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy has instructions
[06:45] <bryanjk> ^^
[06:45] <ForsakenSoul> ok
[06:45] <takesinn> Seems we got one more on our team
[06:45] <VSpike> There is a way to set VNC so that you see the login page via VNC and login to get a new session

[06:46] <erichj> mzuverink: what modem?
[06:47] <Desmaano> no im a newb that really needs a gui :)
[06:47] <soundray> netbug: earlier you said dualboot, now you say vmware. Which is it?
[06:47] <Pollywog> I will try the next Freespire on the laptop, though, if the reviews are good
[06:47] <VSpike> Desmaano: Also, you can install an XServer from freedesktop.org onto your windows machine and run applications from your ubuntu box on your windows display

[07:00] <RedBowlerHat> ok so does anybody know a way of getting permissions in /etc back to defaults?
[07:00] <c5jr> yeah it should be ok RedBowlerHat, look at the permissions
[07:01] <c5jr> what are they now, on, say /etc/hosts?
[07:01] <Nahatan> RedBowlerhad: boot recovery, you will be root then

[07:02] <soundray> ForsakenSoul: you don't use samba when you want to mount a remote Windows share. What's wrong with the guide I pointed you to?
[07:02] <c5jr> hmm you could remove your /etc directory and do a reinstall of the packages affected.. backups are worth quite a bit RedBowlerHat
[07:03] <bullgard4> How can I set a paramter value in a kernel module at loading time?

Difference: My computer's name is MD97600; but changing the BIOS as indicated, the button 'WLAN' will not switch the WLAN card on. How can give to the driver ipw2200 the parameter value 'wireless=radio on'  at loading time or later?
[07:03] <c5jr> actually thats horrible advice

[07:03] <c5jr> hmm
[07:03] <shafto> Argh just got cinelerra, now how do i use the make/configure file?
[07:03] <soundray> RedBowlerHat: practically all of the /etc/ files I can see are 644. Directories are 755.
[07:03] <c5jr> there should be a list of default permissions
[07:04] <c5jr> yeah
[07:04] <c5jr> they arent special, just configs
[07:04] <takesinn> Ah
[07:04] <c5jr> just dont let o+w

[07:04] <ForsakenSoul> :)
[07:05] <soundray> ForsakenSoul: smbfs
[07:05] <ForsakenSoul> ok
[07:05] <ethernomad> an application called IFL
[07:05] <Mirth> Is there a recycle bin in Ubuntu?
[07:05] <ethernomad> it reads image files
[07:05] <soundray> Mirth: yes, lower right corner by default
[07:05] <rbil> Mirth: it's called Trash
[07:05] <ethernomad> I extracted and installed by typing ./setup
[07:06] <Mirth> Oh, okay, I see it now.
[07:06] <Mirth> Thanks
[07:06] <c5jr> oh, install from source ethernomad
[07:06] <c5jr> read the readme in that directory
[07:06] <ethernomad> It has no information about removal
[07:06] <soundray> ethernomad: it's hard to tell without knowing what the setup script did.
[07:06] <c5jr> yeah
[07:06] <c5jr> ...
[07:07] <ethernomad> ...great
[07:07] <c5jr> i know
[07:07] <c5jr> lesson learned: DONT INSTALL FROM SOURCE
[07:07] <Pici> ...
[07:07] <c5jr> rpms and debs are your friends
[07:07] <Pici> c5jr: Ubuntu doesn't use rpms
[07:07] <Mirth> I can't find this: 'Unzip to folder (e.g. ~/pam_keyring_tmp)'
[07:07] <c5jr> not natively
[07:07] <ethernomad> the software is called Image for Linux
[07:07] <Mirth> Anyone have that folder?
[07:07] <c5jr> im sure i can get some rpm lovin goin with ubuntu
[07:07] <ethernomad> bootitng.com
[07:08] <ethernomad> this is leading into another question I have...
[07:08] <c5jr> if i can use dpkg in fedora, i can use various rpm tools in ubuntu
[07:08] <soundray> ethernomad: check if it has created a folder in /usr/local or /opt. Normally you can just delete those.
[07:08] <c5jr> i know i can in debian
[07:08] <Pici> ethernomad: I would think that you would have to contact them for support.
[07:09] <ethernomad> ok, I'll check that
[07:09] <c5jr> idk ethernomad maybe an easier answer
[07:09] <c5jr> nm i have to sign shit to dl...
[07:09] <ethernomad> I have a ghost image of a Windows XP machine
[07:10] <c5jr> ok
[07:10] <ethernomad> is there a way to extract single files from the ghost image?
[07:10] <ethernomad> in Ubuntu?
[07:10] <c5jr> good question
[07:10] <c5jr> i dont know
[07:10] <c5jr> that would be a nice feature, eh?
[07:10] <c5jr> my guess is no
[07:10] <Nahatan> Is n't it possible to mount the image
[07:10] <ethernomad> I was hoping the IFL (Image for Linux) would do just that...it doesn't
[07:11] <c5jr> yeah you could mount a ghost image and then do it...
[07:11] <Nahatan> idd
[07:11] <c5jr> just like mounting a large tar file to extract one file...
[07:11] <c5jr> instead of just extracting that file via the command line...
[07:11] <somatt> Hello
[07:11] <ethernomad> mnt usb_hard_drive/.gho image?
[07:11] <ethernomad> how do I do that?

[07:11] <Shaffox> *temporary
[07:11] <Nahatan> read man mount
[07:11] <ethernomad> I can see the image files but can't do anything with them
[07:12] <somatt> can someone help me to test my download of ubuntu for correctness
[07:12] <soundray> Shaffox: yes, they are in /tmp or /var/tmp usually
[07:12] <c5jr> tenoirary fukes are in /tmp, Shaffox
[07:12] <somatt> ubuntu for powerpc
[07:12] <Shaffox> thanks
[07:12] <Pici> ethernomad: You might be able to `sudo mount -o loop filename mountpoint`
[07:12] <dyrne> Shaffox: why do you ask? there are files in /tmp and in /home/username/.whatever sometimes
[07:12] <ForsakenSoul> soundray : where is the smbfs ... can`t find it .. in where should i look for it networking .... where ?
[07:12] <somatt> can anyone help me verify my download of ubuntu 6.10
[07:12] <ForsakenSoul> btw sorry bout the trouble just i`m still a noob
[07:13] <ethernomad> whats with the sudo stuff?  isn't it easier to su - and get the job done?
[07:13] <mtchaze> Does Ubuntu do an automatic fsck after so many boots?
[07:13] <Pici> mtchaze: Yes.
[07:13] <soundray> ForsakenSoul: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy -- a little more than halfway down
[07:13] <soundray> mtchaze: yes
[07:13] <toni__> somatt md5sum?
[07:13] <somatt> yes toni how do i do that
[07:13] <LjL> !verify > somatt    (somatt, see the private message from Ubotu)
[07:13] <mtchaze> After how many boots?
[07:13] <c5jr> 30 is default, no?
[07:14] <c5jr> you can tell it to boot into fsck any time you want, though
[07:14] <Pici> mtchaze: I believe 30
[07:14] <Nahatan> mine dubuntu does it every 30th time i boot
[07:14] <c5jr> you can change that...
[07:14] <toni__> somatt download the MD5SUM file then md5sum -c MD5SUM
[07:14] <soundray> mtchaze: 30 for the root partition. Change with tune2fs
[07:15] <LjL> somatt, ubotu is a bot. besides that, i don't think there should be any difference just because it's PPC...?
[07:15] <EdgEy> how can i get ubuntu to scan my hdd for partitions to mount ?
[07:15] <EdgEy> i made a partition with gksudo and i'd like to get it auto mounting
[07:15] <EdgEy> err, gparted*
[07:16] <hendrixski> hey
[07:16] <hendrixski> has anyone here had problems with slow FTP downloads?
[07:16] <mtchaze> Anybody experienced freezes with Screensavers using 6.10?
[07:17] <preaction> EdgEy: the /dev/hd?? node should be created automatically by the kernel. just add the appropriate conf to /etc/fstab (i think it's System > Administration > Disks Manager)
[07:17] <erUSUL> EdgEy: make an fstab entry for the new partition, man fstab
[07:17] <rold> join#oejlug
[07:17] <hendrixski> my FTP is running really slow, and I wonder if it isn't a port related problem
[07:17] <shafto> Ive added all the repos for cinerella, whats the package name to install? 'sudo apt-get install cinerella'?
[07:17] <hendrixski> mtchaze, I did on an old oldcomputer

[07:18] <hendrixski> I haven't tried upload yet
[07:18] <mtchaze> In the logs I get: (WW) AIGLX: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x2d
[07:19] <amortvigil> Hey how do i install a scanner?
[07:19] <Pici> Akuma_: glipper (I think) for gnome
[07:19] <Akuma_> Pici: thanks, i'll look it up
[07:19] <hendrixski> I'm using filezilla to get a ton of stuff off a friends computer, and it's only going 25 kbs

[07:21] <shafto> Which of the java installs from package manager would you recommend to suit the requirement of 'JavaTM 2 Virtual Machine 1.4'?
[07:21] <Pici> hendrixski: That speed sounds about right.  Remember, his ISP is limiting his upload speed to about 25kbps.
[07:21] <somatt> Hello I am still trying to verify the md5sum
[07:21] <hendrixski> pici, we'reboth on roadrunner.  I thought his uplink should be as fast as the downlink

[07:26] <hendrixski> dyrne, if I may, what kind of speeds are average download for bittorent?  I just got my internet set up in my new apartment last week
[07:26] <hendrixski> dyrne, want to know that I'm not being ripped off too badly
[07:26] <somatt> desmaano: i don't know how to do it that is why i am asking
[07:26] <ethernomad> alright...I think I answered my first question
[07:26] <EdgEy> hendrixski, there is no real average, it depends a lot on the amount of seeds etc.
[07:26] <blamethrower> wtf torrents don't go faster than 10 kB/s
[07:26] <ethernomad> make install
[07:26] <hendrixski> EdgEy, Ok, this is for that open source movie, Elephants dream

[07:30] <Kassah> is there an apt-get way to install firefox2 32-bit (on 64-bit install)?
[07:30] <lnx_> some keys could be downloaded
[07:30] <pilgrim> How do I make sure my swap space is mapped correctly?
[07:30] <blamethrower> !nvidia
[07:30] <LjL> hendrixski: also, it's fairly undocumented, comes (afaics) in bytecode-only format, and the devs make a point of ignoring standard ubuntu recommendations
[07:30] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:31] <somatt> pici: i downloaded the md5sum.exe and placed it in the c:/windows/system32/ folder, then I typed the commands into the command prompt
[07:31] <pilgrim> Because a program just ran out of memory and crashed.
[07:31] <lnx_> automatix giveme this error  some keys could be downloaded
[07:31] <hendrixski> LjL, oh,  that's a good case against it
[07:31] <somatt> pici: and it says md5sum is not a valid command
[07:31] <hendrixski> LjL, is EasyUbuntu better then?
[07:31] <lnx_> what i should do
[07:31] <dyrne> pilgrim: free will tell you then you can just swapon /dev/something
[07:31] <bryanjk> How do I get superuser privilege in Terminal? I type 'su' but that never works right
[07:31] <Intell2> How do I create a new partition with cfdisk?
[07:31] <Desmaano> other question, Ubuntu doesn't seem to recognize my harddisk size, did i forget to install some software or missed some settings ??

[07:32] <hendrixski> bryanjk, su I think has been disabled, you can do sudo -i for the same effect
[07:32] <LjL> hendrixski: i'm generally against that sort of scripts: the APT package management system *is* the thing that was invented to make installation of stuff easy. there's nothing (except legal problems...) that can't be solved by employing an appropriate metapackage, really -- no need to create "scripts" that work over and around APT

[07:32] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse

[07:33] <LjL> hendrixski, how so? those *are* packaged
[07:33] <amonbish> I'll think about it
[07:33] <Pici> somatt: You should replace that with the path to your cdrom drive.
[07:34] <somatt> OH
[07:34] <blamethrower> in what cases should you disable ipv6?
[07:34] <hendrixski> LjL, the open source ones are... but they usually aren't enough to get beryl or Compiz up
[07:34] <somatt> Pici: the help file should SAY that one is to do that
[07:34] <LjL> hendrixski: no, i mean the *proprietary* ones are
[07:34] <LjL> !nvidia | hendrixski
[07:34] <ubotu> hendrixski: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:34] <dyrne> pilgrim: just free  if it shows swap youre fine if not you need to sudo swapon   then make sure its in fstab as well for reboot
[07:34] <LjL> hendrixski: they're just not installed by default, but you can install them with a single APT run
[07:34] <hendrixski> LjL,  really?the howtos all involve going to ATi or nVidia's website
[07:34] <LjL> hendrixski: they're not even in disabled-by-default repositories, since they're in main and restricted
[07:35] <hendrixski> LjL,  is that recent?
[07:35] <blackguy_chillin> some racists said i shouldn't try ubuntu
[07:35] <dyrne> pilgrim: is it a big app? we talking like over 2 or 4 gigs mem needed?
[07:35] <pilgrim> dyrne, free shows swap like this: Swap:            0          0          0
[07:35] <kikokos> hi could somebody tell me how i can actualized firmware. I need to actual my dvd bios
[07:35] <pilgrim> dyrne, it's eclipse
[07:35] <pilgrim> so yeah
[07:35] <Pici> somatt: Sorry, rather you should replace it with the path of the iso file and the md5sum file.
[07:35] <Desmaano> Question: Ubuntu doesn't see the size of my system-hdd, and doesn't recognize my second hdd, how comes ??
[07:35] <LjL> hendrixski, no they don't... the howtos about Beryls&friends might do, but that's just because Beryl&friends need some feature that are only available in the more *recent* versions of those drivers
[07:35] <kikokos> but from producent page i have exe file only
[07:35] <somatt> Pici: how? the path of the md5sum or the path of the iso
[07:35] <hendrixski> LjL, that's good information.  I'll look at that when I get a chance
[07:35] <shafto> Azrael10, Is it part of Mplayer? Thats all searches bring back?
[07:35] <LjL> hendrixski: and Edgy and Dapper come with older versions. but then Feisty (due in less than a month...) comes with a version that allows you to run Beryl
[07:35] <Azrael10> shafto: Yes.
[07:35] <kikokos> has anybody any idea for this? please
[07:35] <dyrne> pilgrim: yeah you need to set swap then.  also gksudo gedit /etc/fstab  and add an entry there for it so its auto used next reboot
[07:36] <Hylg> Hy
[07:36] <pilgrim> dyrne, and fstab is using some UUID crap that is like a code it's not /dev/hda2 or something simple
[07:36] <blamethrower> do you need to use ipv6 if you use on-board LAN and use an adsl modem router?
[07:36] <hendrixski> LjL,  yeah I can't wait for feisty
[07:36] <LjL> hendrixski: and, even for Edgy and Dapper, there are third-party repositories with the latest version available
[07:36] <Pici> somatt: You should put them in the same directory and use that path
[07:36] <somatt> Pici:it said to put md5sum in c:/windows/system32 so am i then supposed to put the iso there as well
[07:36] <shafto> Azrael10, So if i install mplayer, it will install that?

[07:36] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing using fuse here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[07:36] <blackguy_chillin> !fuse
[07:36] <dyrne> pilgrim: you can use uui or replace with hda2 or whatever

[07:36] <LjL> hendrixski: (though, of course, using third-party repos for things like drivers isn't best, but oh well, it's still better than using a black-box script like automatix to do the same thing)
[07:36] <Hylg> can someone help me with my blutooth dongle please ?
[07:36] <pilgrim> dyrne, # /dev/hda2 -- converted during upgrade to edgy

[07:36] <kikokos> :) who know how to give new bios for my dvd rom ?
[07:36] <Pici> somatt: I mean put the .md5 file and the .iso file in the same directory.  Sorry if I was confusing.
[07:36] <kikokos> firmware
[07:37] <shafto> Azrael10, So if i install mplayer, it will install that?
[07:37] <somatt> i don't have a .md5 file
[07:37] <Azrael10> shafto: Yes, but you might need to add some codecs.
[07:37] <pilgrim> dyrne, how do I obtain the uuid of /dev/hda2?
[07:37] <somatt> pici: i don't have a .md5 file
[07:37] <blamethrower> blackguy_chillin: www.distrowatch.com
[07:37] <somatt> pici: i have a iso and a md5sum.exe
[07:37] <goofey> anyone here using beryl with nvidia legacy drivers?  if so, are you using Xgl or Aiglx?
[07:37] <dyrne> pilgrim: honestly id remove the uuid and just do /dev/hda2
[07:37] <pilgrim> dyrne, but the rest of fstab has UUID
[07:37] <blackguy_chillin> blamethrower: i am too nervous
[07:37] <kikokos> :P anyone know something about any firmware and want to speak with me and help me ?
[07:38] <blamethrower> wtf lol
[07:38] <hendrixski> goofey, I used the latest on a friends computer, and XGL
[07:38] <blackguy_chillin> blamethrower: i use red hat all my life now ubuntu i might but i nervous
[07:38] <somatt> pici: i have a iso and a md5sum.exe
[07:38] <Pici> somatt: Well if you want to comepletely verify your downloaded ISO, then you'll need the .md5 file.
[07:38] <kikokos> ........
[07:38] <somatt> pici: where do i get that
[07:38] <Hylg> please, my bcm2003 dongle wont work. Can you help me please ?
[07:39] <need411> kikokos..  I can't help.. but what are you trying to do? update the firmware for your burner?
[07:39] <goofey> hendrixski: ok - thanks - it seems aiglx might not work with the legacy drivers...
[07:39] <Hylg> bcm2033
[07:39] <blackguy_chillin> blamethrower: please i beg
[07:39] <Pici> somatt: It should be linked from the same place where you got the iso file.
[07:39] <hendrixski> somatt, the .md5 file should be available same place you downloaded the orriginal file
[07:39] <blamethrower> blackguy_chillin: i used windows all my life and i just made the switched for a week
[07:39] <blamethrower> switch*
[07:39] <blackguy_chillin> blamethrower: what if I get hacked badly?
[07:39] <somatt> pici: i will be right back
[07:39] <kikokos> need411, i want to update the firmware for my burner
[07:39] <blackguy_chillin> hackers always hack me for no reason
[07:39] <hendrixski> goofey, I don't know... I've stayed away from legacy drivers :(
[07:39] <blamethrower> unlikely
[07:39] <blackguy_chillin> its likely
[07:39] <amortvigil> can someone help me? my scanner has a parralel port and sane doesn't scan that
[07:40] <somatt> pici: where do i get it i am at this page: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[07:40] <goofey> hendrixski: well, i mean the post .97 legacy drivers, not the older .96
[07:40] <blamethrower> well then there's only one way be sure right
[07:40] <blackguy_chillin> blamethrower: dont hack me please
[07:40] <kikokos> so once more, Who can tell me how to update firmware for my burner ?
[07:40] <hendrixski> kikokos, have you googled it?
[07:40] <goofey> kikokos: not sure that's a linux question....
[07:40] <blackguy_chillin> ill trash your penis
[07:41] <blamethrower> blackguy_chillin: wtf.
[07:41] <AJIEXABEST> hi all !!!
[07:41] <Pici> somatt: I'm not sure, Canonical recently redesigned the site.
[07:41] <need411> kikokos, did you check the manufacturers website?
[07:41] <Pici> !ops | blackguy_chillin
[07:41] <ubotu> blackguy_chillin: Help! Mez, LjL, elkbuntu, imbrandon, DBO, gnomefreak, Hobbsee, rob, ompaul, Madpilot, Burgundavia, Seveas, CarlK, crimsun, ajmitch, tritium, Nalioth, thoreauputic, apokryphos, tonyyarusso, PriceChild or Amaranth
[07:41] <somatt> pici: well can i get any md5 for the powerpc iso?
[07:41] <kikokos> yeah but from producent page i have just exe file...i i haven`t idea what to do with this i dont have windows
[07:41] <gnomefreak> oops
[07:41] <hendrixski> kikokos, what kind of burner is it?
[07:41] <goofey> lol
[07:41] <kikokos> need411, yes, look up :)
[07:41] <AJIEXABEST> I install KDE on my ubuntu and now i can't find recycle :)
[07:42] <somatt> pici: am i supposed to be able to install the ubuntu straight from the os 8.5 desktop
[07:42] <shafto> Azrael10, I got  Mplayer now how do i go about changing from WMV to MPEG?
[07:42] <kikokos> hendrixski, it`s nec nd-3540a
[07:42] <hendrixski> kikokos, unfortunately not a lot of producers make LINUX drivers for their stuff,
[07:42] <Pici> somatt: To be honest, they dont make it very easy to verify the md5sums.
[07:43] <hendrixski> kikokos, but your burner will probablywork with open source drivers
[07:43] <goofey> hendrixski: it's not a driver he's looking for
[07:43] <Pici> somatt: I'm pretty sure that it does its own internal verification when it starts the install.
[07:43] <goofey> hendrixski: it's a way to update the firmware using linux rather than windows
[07:43] <kikokos> hendrixski, but driver and update firmware it`s the same?>
[07:43] <Pici> somatt: And no, you'd have to boot off the CD to install it.
[07:43] <hendrixski> errr. my bad
[07:43] <somatt> pici: so if i can verify then it should boot right?
[07:43] <goofey> hendrixski: no worries.  :)
[07:43] <rever> Hi when I type #hostname I get my hostname Linux1 however when I type #dnsdomainname I get nothing
[07:43] <rever> How can I fix this
[07:44] <mick__> salut
[07:44] <mick__> a va ?
[07:44] <shafto> Azrael10, I got  Mplayer now how do i go about changing from WMV to MPEG?
[07:44] <hendrixski> the firmware is the software to burn the CD's with in this case, right?
[07:44] <Pici> somatt: Yes.
[07:44] <somatt> pici: so i got the checksum
[07:44] <somatt> it is a3494ff33a3e5db83669df5268850a01
[07:44] <goofey> hendrixski: the firmware is the code inside the cdburner
[07:44] <kikokos> goofey, hmm i`ve never updated firmware..
[07:44] <goofey> kikokos: me neither
[07:44] <somatt> now what do i do with it
[07:44] <kghunt> is it possible to install office on ubuntu?
[07:44] <hendrixski> goofey, oh
[07:45] <hendrixski> now I feel stupid
[07:45] <somatt> pici: so i got the checksum it is a3494ff33a3e5db83669df5268850a01 now what do i do with it?
[07:45] <toni__> somatt: ftp://ftp.iasi.roedu.net/mirrors/ubuntulinux.org/releases/6.10/MD5SUMS
[07:45] <goofey> kghunt: if you need to - you can try wine or codeweavers - but check out openoffice first - it's sweet
[07:45] <kikokos> hendrixski, so maybe you know how to update firmware ?

[07:52] <takesinn> ipchains or iptables?

[07:53] <ardchoille> !firestarter | takesinn
[07:53] <ubotu> takesinn: 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).

[07:58] <Pici> somatt: Sorry, I'm not sure what to do.  I haven't use a Mac in many years.
[07:58] <Bsims> Also, is there a way with xchat to let me repeat something in another channell?

[07:59] <^Albe^> hi to all: little problem     i i want to use the sudo command and quit promptly from the superuser mode i can use the sudo -k command.. but for gksu?? i cannot found anything.. some suggestion?
[07:59] <jenn> Can someone tell me how do I install latest Nvidia Drivers on my linux thru command promt at start-up?
[07:59] <hendrixski> !gksu
[07:59] <somatt> can anyone else help me?  i have a verified iso of ubuntu 6.10 powerpc and i cannot get it to boot
[07:59] <ubotu> If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application> 
[07:59] <rafa> somebody know about Gambas?
[07:59] <rafa> somebody know about Gambas?
[07:59] <cfactor> somatt: you're burning from a mac?
[08:00] <Pici> !repeat > rafa
[08:00] <somatt> burning from pc
[08:00] <Bsims> ardchoille: in irssi I can hit up and enter to have it scroll back, and xchat being overly gnomish inisists on ctrl-C and ctrl-v for pasing as opposed to middle mouse button as GNU intended
[08:00] <^Albe^> thx hendrixski i give a look
[08:00] <somatt> cfactor: burning from pc
[08:00] <dixon_> anybody know how to add my HDD to the "Places" ???
[08:00] <Mirth> !synaptics
[08:00] <ubotu> For a comprehensive Synaptics Touchpad guide, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad
[08:00] <ian_> join #ubuntu
[08:00] <hendrixski> jenn, I'd like to know that myself
[08:00] <Pici> ian_: You're already here
[08:00] <cfactor> somatt: in Nero, there's a menu option for "burn image to disc."  Just use that.
[08:00] <hendrixski> a friends machine has some nVidia problems
[08:00] <ardchoille> Bsims: I don't know, I use irssi only :)
[08:01] <jenn> hendrixski, I'm new to linux. So it's hard for me to know all the commands. :(
[08:01] <rafa> somebody know about Gambas?
[08:01] <somatt> cfactor: yea i did that
[08:01] <cfactor> and it doesn't boot?
[08:01] <ardchoille> !repeat | rafa
[08:01] <hendrixski> somatt, have you tried the alternate install disk?
[08:01] <ubotu> rafa: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[08:01] <Bsims> ardchoille: same here, but I do use xchat just to remind myself how great irssi is
[08:01] <jenn> hendrixski, what error does your friend encounter.
[08:01] <ardchoille> Bsims: hahaha
[08:01] <hendrixski> jenn, I've been using Linux a little bit over a year, and I still don't know all the commands
[08:02] <hendrixski> jenn, he gets the blue screen of "your xserver has crashed"  that is shortly after I installed VMWare for him
[08:02] <cfactor> somatt: I haven't been reading.  What happens when you boot from it?
[08:02] <eugman> Hey, my screen has been starting out black when I log in lately.
[08:02] <jenn> Hendrixski, oh I see. I simply get a black screen with a command prompt.
[08:02] <Mirth> Has Synaptics ever come with Ubuntu installation before?
[08:02] <Hyper-cool> is there a way to make XCHAT automatically join a server and channel?
[08:02] <Mirth> Coulda sworn I used to have it...
[08:02] <somatt> cfactor: when i try to boot i get a folder with a ? in it
[08:02] <Bsims> ardchoille: In fact I am using irssi in a GNU screen right now over ssh
[08:03] <hendrixski> jenn,  just blank prompt, or does it actually have something meaningful like "log in"
[08:03] <somatt> cfactor: then it boots to the hd
[08:03] <hendrixski> ?
[08:03] <cfactor> Mirth: there's Synaptics for package management and Synamptics for touchpad driver.
[08:03] <ardchoille> Mirth: You mean the Synaptic gui for the package manager?
[08:03] <Mirth> I mean for touchpad.
[08:03] <cfactor> Mirth: but the package management has been included by default beofre.
[08:04] <N3WB> Error: Depency is not statisfiable: Xlibs
[08:04] <jenn> hendrixski, a black screen with login command prompt. I'm able to login thru that.
[08:04] <somatt> cfactor: when i try to boot i get a folder with a ? in it and then it boots from the hd
[08:04] <N3WB> Any help?
[08:04] <cfactor> somatt: you're still booting on the same pc?
[08:04] <Mirth> Isn't Synaptics the touchpad, and Synaptic the package manager?
[08:04] <Bsims> Mirth: yeah, I think so
[08:04] <ardchoille> Mirth: Yes, but some people mistakenly add an "s" to the package manager name
[08:04] <hendrixski> jenn, Oh.. you probably changed your xorg.conf file recently
[08:04] <jexdawg> ardchoille: thanks. gnomebaker works great - burning now.
[08:05] <Mirth> Yeah, I need the Touchpad one
[08:05] <somatt> cfactor: i am booting on blueberry imac g3
[08:05] <ardchoille> jexdawg: W00T!
[08:05] <AJIEXA_>  where i can found recycle folder in my KDE ???
[08:05] <Bsims> jexdawg: I like k3b but its a kde app
[08:05] <Mirth> I could have sworn I had it when I installed Ubuntu a few months ago
[08:05] <jenn> hendrixski, I have never used ubuntu before. This is what I get ever since I install it on my computer two days ago.
[08:05] <Intangir> whats a good program for graphically seeing where all your file space is being used up? (or textually seeing in a more human readable way)
[08:05] <cfactor> somatt: oh!  so which image are you burning?  (ISO file-name)
[08:05] <somatt> cfactor: i am booting on blueberry imac g3
[08:05] <jexdawg> bsims: any worthwhile advantages or is it just a little more polished?
[08:05] <mirak> rythmbox sucks !!! drop this with Listen Gnome please god
[08:05] <Bsims> Intangir: filelight
[08:05] <somatt> ubuntu-6.10-desktop-powerpc.iso
[08:06] <hendrixski> jenn, oh.  even from the first time you installed it?
[08:06] <Bsims> jexdawg: I like the interface better, seems more sane to me
[08:06] <somatt> cfactor ubuntu-6.10-desktop-powerpc.iso
[08:06] <hendrixski> jenn, after you log in, try the command "startx"
[08:06] <jenn> hendrixski, yes that is correct.
[08:06] <somatt> cfactor: ubuntu-6.10-desktop-powerpc.iso
[08:06] <hendrixski> hhmmm.  That would be a problem
[08:07] <ardchoille> jenn: Did you install the server edition?
[08:07] <hendrixski> right, the server edition doesn't have a gui, does it
[08:07] <jenn> hendrixiki, I get few errors in the log when I enter that. NV: No matching device section for instance (BUS ID) found. (EE) No devices detected.
[08:07] <jexdawg> bsims: i haven't seen it but i already agree. gnomebaker is oogly. WOAH! my cd just finished and it made a freaking badass noise though... it was worth it just to hear that noise haha
[08:07] <Bsims> mirak: Every bit of software ever sucks, amarok sucks less
[08:08] <somatt> cfactor: ubuntu-6.10-desktop-powerpc.iso
[08:08] <jenn> hendrixiki, I did install a new graphic card two years ago. Maybe my computer is looking at old graphic card?....
[08:08] <mirak> Bsims: the problem is that they persist to provide it in Ubuntu as default
[08:08] <cfactor> somatt: holding down "c" doesn't work?
[08:08] <mfd> When will feisty be officially released?
[08:08] <Bsims> jexdawg: http://k3b.plainblack.com/screenshots
[08:08] <hendrixski> jenn, so either your driver isn't working, or you have installed the server edition
[08:08] <Desmaano> hey guys, im back with some more questions, love this support from ubuntu community :)
[08:08] <blue|palm> can anyone tell me why amarok could possibly play mp3's with much noise (if i use totem for example it plays fine)
[08:09] <Bsims> jexdawg: so, apt-get install something else
[08:09] <mirak> Bsims: I have no problem having rythmbox in the repository but since 3 years they put it as default and rythmbox is still worse than beta
[08:09] <jenn> hendrixski, I can assure you that it's not the server edition. :)
[08:09] <mfd> Jenn: Two years ago.
[08:09] <tiagoboldt> feisty is almost out, who will decide the next release code name? are there any suggestions yet?
[08:09] <cfactor> somatt: sorry, never tried to install linux on a powerpc before...(but I am installing it on my Macbook Pro atm)
[08:09] <mirak> Bsims: that's simply beeing stubborn
[08:09] <bruenig> tiagoboldt, sneaky snake :)
[08:09] <hendrixski> jenn,  the driver you can get from nVidias website.. which you can access through a command line browser like lynx
[08:09] <mfd> There's nothing cool about the release names.
[08:09] <shane634> jenn, you can install a desktop from command line... or check your xorg.conf from there
[08:09] <jenn> hendrixski, I would love to get the correct drivers installed but don't know where to start.
[08:09] <Desmaano> somatt: what kind of powerpc u want to install ?
[08:09] <somatt> cfactor: ya it gives me the little folder then a ? and then smiley face
[08:09] <mfd> Jenn: You're from Efnet/immunitysec?
[08:09] <tiagoboldt> bruenig, where can I read about it? do you know?
[08:09] <somatt> desmaano: g3 blueberry imac
[08:10] <mirak> Bsims: firefox is the default and not epiphany
[08:10] <bruenig> tiagoboldt, last year that had the possible names listed in a wiki and you could vote or something
[08:10] <Bsims> mirak: Heh, they had to pick something gnomish, and that is closest
[08:10] <Mirth> Anyone know of any tutorialsfor installing Synaptics Touchpad for 6.10?
[08:10] <^Albe^> hi to all: little problem     if i want to use the sudo command and quit promptly from the superuser mode i can use the sudo -k command.. but for gksu?? i cannot found anything.. some suggestion?
[08:10] <bruenig> tiagoboldt, but it was about 2 weeks before the release so...
[08:10] <Desmaano> somatt: last weekend i installed ubuntu on a imac g3 too
[08:10] <jumpincow> hi
[08:10] <hendrixski> jenn, sudo apt-get install links and then links nvidia.com or something... and find the one for your model
[08:10] <jenn> hendrixski, how do I use that command prompt to install them after putting them on CD.
[08:10] <jenn> ok
[08:10] <tiagoboldt> bruenig, tks:D
[08:10] <jumpincow> i can't view the user's list on xchat
[08:10] <Rhys`> Anyone free to help out a newb? :)
[08:10] <Bsims> mirak: I dunno, I just install
[08:10] <bruenig> !anyone | Rhys`
[08:10] <ubotu> Rhys`: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[08:10] <hendrixski> jenn, you dont need to put them on a CD
[08:10] <mfd> Jenn: it's referred to, in nix terms as a terminal.
[08:10] <somatt> desmaano: then please help me
[08:10] <Desmaano> but i did it with the alternate cd, because the desktop cd was not fast enough, or too havy for my system too even startup fom once
[08:10] <mfd> You also don't need to put anything in your cdrom.
[08:11] <somatt> desmaano: i will try that
[08:11] <hendrixski> jenn, you can download them straight from the website and install
[08:11] <shane634> Rhys`, what do you need help with?
[08:11] <bruenig> termial is an application
[08:11] <Intangir> cool
[08:11] <somatt> desmaano: the xubuntu alternate cd is burning right now
[08:11] <Desmaano> somatt: it worked fine for me, but the hd will be fully formatted
[08:11] <Intangir> if there a text based easy way of seeing like %s and MBs or GBs used by different directories
[08:11] <mfd> Jenn: I really fail to understand what you're problem is here, could you break it down a little.
[08:11] <Rhys`> Umm, Xorg won't start and I don't think DNS is working properly since I can't install anything from apt-get.
[08:11] <hendrixski> and like I said, there's a browser that you don't need a GUI for, called Lynx
[08:11] <Bsims> jexdawg: ya check out the screen shots
[08:11] <bruenig> Intangir, look into du
[08:11] <Intangir> i tried du
[08:11] <Bsims> Intangir: man df
[08:11] <Intangir> and it seems to suck
[08:11] <jexdawg> damn bsims, this is purty
[08:11] <hendrixski> !lynx
[08:11] <mirak> Bsims: try Listen then , you will be surprised
[08:11] <ubotu> Browsers available for Linux: Firefox (GTK, Gecko engine), Konqueror (KDE/Qt, KHTML engine), Epiphany (GTK, Gecko engine), Dillo (GTK), Links2 (terminal-based or graphical, see !man page), Opera (Qt, proprietary)  -  HTTP servers: apache2
[08:11] <Intangir> it even lists EVERYTHING or only the totals..
[08:11] <Bsims> Oh used
[08:11] <Intangir> how can i make it sum up ONLY the immediate directories
[08:12] <Intangir> and not recurse
[08:12] <shane634> Rhys`, i can help with xorg right click my name and then dialog
[08:12] <Desmaano> somatt: how much ram you have installe?
[08:12] <dyrne> Intangir: du -ach directory whats wrong with du? :)
[08:12] <Intangir> dyrne: thats printing like 8billion things..
[08:13] <Intangir> i only hae like 15 directories in here
[08:13] <mfd> jenn!
[08:13] <cfactor> Desmaano: looks like somatt is having trouble even booting from the CD.
[08:13] <somatt> desmaano: not sure how do i know
[08:13] <hendrixski> jenn, you may also get some help on the Ubuntu Forums, if you post the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:13] <Rhys`> I can't see a dialog option. :P
[08:13] <cfactor> somatt: did you verify the md5 of the iso file to make sure it downloaded correctly?
[08:13] <mfd> She's not being very forthcoming.
[08:13] <shane634> Rhys`, do you have msn?
[08:13] <mfd> Perhaps she's timed out.
[08:13] <Rhys`> Yup.
[08:13] <hendrixski> I unfortunately, have to get going.  :(
[08:13] <ReTyPe> is it possible to keep firefox in the memory, even if all instances are closed
[08:13] <shane634> Rhys`, add shane47143
[08:13] <Desmaano> cfactor, somatt: i know, from cd booting wont work because (i think) its with the 24 speed cd drive and the lack of power on the machine
[08:14] <bruenig> Intangir, you can do du -hs to get a size for your particular directory
[08:14] <mfd> So feisty would be coming out in < a month then
[08:14] <darkusurp> hello linux noobs
[08:14] <ardchoille> mfd: April 19th
[08:14] <Intangir> bah..
[08:14] <somatt> desmaano: so how do i get this to work
[08:14] <Intangir> this du is worthless, its either too much info (poorly formated) or not enough
[08:14] <takesinn> darkusurp: Hello ubernerd
[08:14] <mfd> ardchoille: That's hot.
[08:14] <Intangir> theres no happy easy medium
[08:14] <takesinn> :P
[08:14] <ethernomad> how do I know if I have ntfs support?
[08:14] <bruenig> Intangir, du -hs directory/
[08:14] <Desmaano> Somatt: just startup with the alternate cd and press c
[08:14] <cfactor> somatt: you can try burning it at 1x or 2x speed.
[08:14] <orangey> he yall
[08:15] <orangey> hey all, even.
[08:15] <Intangir> what was the gtk one ive seen before
[08:15] <somatt> desmaano: ok i just got the alternate burnt
[08:15] <orangey> I am trying to submit a patch on the kernel. ide-acpi.c is present, but I want to propose that it is on by default.
[08:15] <somatt> cfactor: is there a way to verify the md5 from the cd
[08:15] <Desmaano> somatt: follow the directions on the screen, note* hdd will be fully formatted
[08:15] <somatt> cfactor: not from the iso
[08:15] <bruenig> Intangir, what are you trying to do exactly, I am sure there is a way. I am not getting what you are wanting. I thought du -hs was it
[08:15] <orangey> Do I edit debian/Config/config and diff that?
[08:15] <Intangir> im trying to find out where all the space is being wasted on my drives
[08:15] <Intangir> cause i gotta clean up
[08:16] <bruenig> Intangir, right but what are you trying to do as far as figuring out directory size
[08:16] <Intangir> bruenig: but im working remotely so text would be good, or maybe really light graphical look, but a way to easily see where most of my space is being wasted
[08:16] <ethernomad> how do I check if my Ubuntu is configured to mount ntfs?
[08:16] <cfactor> somatt: not sure how to do it from windows.
[08:16] <IVBela> hiya peeps
[08:16] <massctrl> hi all, I changed my nic with a new card, resulting in a new mac address, now my nic is known as eth1 instead of eth0, ... I thought this was caused by udev, but I can't find a rule in /etc/udev/rules.d/* referring to this, .... can anyone help me with this one ?
[08:16] <takesinn> I got a problem with firestarter
[08:16] <Desmaano> somatt: start the imac up with the alternate cd in the drive and hold button 'c', follow on-screen instructions, thats all
[08:16] <takesinn> It doesn't seem to be doing the trick
[08:16] <blue|palm> can anyone tell me why amarok could possibly play mp3's with much noise (if i use totem for example it plays fine)
[08:16] <IVBela> does anyone know how can i make edgy display text on startup, like dapper did?
[08:16] <cfactor> don't play with fire, takesinn!
[08:16] <bruenig> Intangir, my thought is that you were in a directory, and you wanted to find out what the size of all the subdirectories in that directory was like, so du -hs *
[08:17] <werdnativ> could anyone please send me a copy of their  /etc/init.d/apache2  script? I dropped mine & can't figure out how to reinstall it... (apt-get won't put it back.)
[08:17] <Squee> werdnativ: give me a sec
[08:17] <theherbalizer> blue|palm: try taking the output volume down to 80% or so
[08:17] <ian_> can anyone help me getting a WUSB54G (Ver.1) working?
[08:17] <Intangir> bruenig: oh thats helpful actual
[08:17] <Intangir> thanks
[08:17] <somatt> desmaano:
[08:17] <werdnativ> thank you Squee.
[08:17] <somatt> desmaano: did it with alternate and still same thing
[08:17] <takesinn> cfactor: Why not?
[08:18] <Desmaano> somatt: so what problems you encounter ?
[08:18] <bullgard4> acerhk is a kernel module which I could use to activate special keyboard keys. Is there a similar kernel module available for Ubuntu 7.04?
[08:18] <dyrne> werdnativ: dpkg-reconfigure package should do it
[08:19] <Ech1> hi, is this where we can ask support questions?
[08:19] <orangey> hmm.
[08:19] <dyrne> Ech1: yep
[08:19] <orangey> where can I go to talk about ubuntu development?
[08:19] <Desmaano> Ech1: yes it is
[08:19] <blue|palm> theherbalizer: thanks hahaha i cant believe that was the problem
[08:19] <Desmaano> orangey: i thought it was #ubuntu-dev
[08:19] <dyrne> orangey: ubuntu-devel   if its on topic
[08:20] <orangey> Desmaano: thank you : )
[08:20] <cfactor> orangey: #microsoft?
[08:20] <devel_> hello, can I install ubuntu 64 bits in a Intel Core 2 Duo T5500?
[08:20] <theherbalizer> blue|palm: me neither, and i'm honestly not sure why it happens
[08:20] <orangey> dyrne: thank you too : )
[08:20] <Desmaano> sorry i think dyrne is right :)
[08:20] <brubbelsabs> someone knows bandwith monitor with:
[08:20] <brubbelsabs>  * traffic by subdomain
[08:20] <brubbelsabs>  * email notification
[08:20] <brubbelsabs>  * block traffic at a specific threshold
[08:20] <brubbelsabs>  * working on interface level (no application specific monitor like apachetop)
[08:20] <brubbelsabs> Thanks
[08:20] <Intangir> bruenig: do you know of a way to sort?
[08:20] <Squee> werdnativ: Hope this works for ya - http://pastebin.ca/403996
[08:20] <Desmaano> somatt: what problems you have ?
[08:20] <werdnativ> dyrne: dpkg-reconfigure apache2 --force  doesn't bring it back. It gives no output message.
[08:21] <werdnativ> Squee, thanks, awesome.
[08:21] <IVBela> does anyone know how can i make edgy display text on startup, like dapper did?
[08:21] <dyrne> werdnativ: of well :) maybe an apt-get remove --purge package
[08:21] <Ech1> I'm trying to set up a dedicated ventrilo server on this ubuntu system but I can't connect from my windows client; I believe the root of the problem is that my router is not seeing the ubuntu computer
[08:21] <darkusurp> apt-get
[08:21] <darkusurp> apt-get install noobproff
[08:21] <werdnativ> yeah, thanks for the tip. I think I'll just put it back manually for now.
[08:22] <Mirth> GSynaptics couldn't initialize.
[08:22] <Mirth> You have to set 'SHMConfig' 'true' in xorg.conf or XF86Config to use GSynaptics
[08:22] <Mirth> I need help with that
[08:22] <Mirth> I put that in, and I still get that error
[08:22] <bruenig> Intangir, not really, I mean using grep you could sort things into GB MB and KB
[08:22] <Squee> I'm trying to get a cgi app working, but nothing in my cgibin is being executed, firefox tries to display the executable on the screen.  What do I have to do to fix this?
[08:22] <werdnativ> Squee: where is the cgi file stored?
[08:22] <takesinn> Ey
[08:22] <Desmaano> Question: how comes ubuntu doesnt see the size of my system-hdd, and thinks my 2nd hdd is a fdd??
[08:23] <newbie> ciao, scusatemi ho appena installato ubuntu ma quando cerco di avviare un video non parte e mi dice che non  installato alcun decoder.....come risolvo?
[08:23] <Squee> werdnativ: /usr/lib/cgi-bin/
[08:23] <takesinn> How can I remove default ubuntu apps like bittorrent?
[08:23] <NET||abuse> hey all,, i've got a HP nc6000 here, and there's no wifi card in it at the mo,, now i was thinking of going the minipci route,, but i really want to support linux,, can i use any laptop style minipci card in it or would it have to be specific to this laptop? and if i can choose,, what one should i go for to ensure good linux support?
[08:23] <bruenig> takesinn, sudo apt-get remove bittorrent
[08:23] <wastrel> why is bash being extremely obsequious and irritating in my new edgy install?  it asks me if i want to overwrite files, it has "smart" tab completion that doesn't let me do what i want,....  how do i turn this stuff off?
[08:23] <gwb> do
[08:23] <werdnativ> Squee: does it have -x bit on it?
[08:23] <brubbelsabs> nobody knows such an bandwidth monitor?
[08:23] <takesinn> But then it unemerges ubuntu-desktop
[08:23] <Squee> werdnativ: I'll be forced to kill myself if that is it, lemme check
[08:23] <takesinn> or isn't it necessary?
[08:24] <AaronMT> Has anyone dual booted with Vista on the same drive? What should I do if Vista wont appear on the grub menu for some reason?
[08:24] <VSpike> Rats
[08:24] <Desmaano> VSpike wb :)
[08:24] <VSpike> Hi Desmaano :)
[08:24] <johnnybuoy> AaronMT, Vist doesnt know grub
[08:24] <Squee> werdnativ: nope, didn't work
[08:24] <johnnybuoy> you'll probably have to add it
[08:24] <Narada> hi guys; i want to upgrade libapache2-svn to a version newer than ubuntu provides; is there any way to do this; where can i find this; who provides this
[08:24] <Desmaano> VSpike: the trick with vnc without logging in doesnt work
[08:25] <mevets> where is the apache httpd.conf file lcated in ubuntu?
[08:25] <Mirth> Why is Ubuntu so hard :(
[08:25] <Squee> mevets: /etc/apache/
[08:25] <mevets> thanks
[08:25] <Squee> np
[08:25] <VSpike> Firefox got terminated during download of the ISO at about 300MB... I have a .part file on the desktop.  How do I persuade firefox to resume the download?
[08:25] <AaronMT2K7> How do I add it to grub
[08:25] <Squee> mirth: How so?
[08:25] <Mirth> I've been trying to fix Synaptics Touchpad for hours....
[08:25] <Desmaano> VSpike: let me think ..
[08:25] <VSpike> Desmaano: I haven't got it working yet either.  Did you read all the comments?
[08:25] <Mirth> Shouldn't be this hard.
[08:25] <Ech1> Is there a reason that my router is not seeing my ubuntu box on the network and is not giving it an ip address such as 192.168.1.XXX?
[08:25] <kbrosnan> VSpike: can't with firefox, use wget
[08:26] <bafoc> Mirth: hard? try gentoo, or openBSD.. those are hard :-) well atleast compaired to ubuntu :-)
[08:26] <coxande> anobody use Gajim ?
[08:26] <Mirth> Hehe
[08:26] <Crazytom> mirth try booting with the acpi=off option
[08:26] <somatt> desmaano: when i try to boot from cd i get a folder with a ? in it
[08:26] <VSpike> kbrosnan: firefox can't resume?  You're sh**ing me :)
[08:26] <somatt> desmaano: then it boots from hd
[08:26] <shafto> Gentoo, is well hard lol!
[08:26] <kbrosnan> VSpike: not if it crashted
[08:26] <Mirth> Crazytom, Im too new to know what that is :(
[08:26] <somatt> desmaano: and i know it's not the cd drive cuz it boots from the os9 cd i have
[08:26] <Squee> aaronmt2k7: I've had that problem everytime there is an upgrade to the kernel you have to manually change it.  Look in the grub.conf for the example to set up windows, that one works, just make sure hd(0,0) is set to the right partition
[08:26] <bruenig> Intangir, something like this could help: KB=$(du -hs * | grep K) && MB=$(du -hs * | grep M) && GB=$(du -hs * | grep G) ; echo $KB ; echo $MB ; echo $GB
[08:27] <Desmaano> somatt: strange, havent seen that error before
[08:27] <Desmaano> somatt: if i boot from cd i get a option to boot from a linux kernel
[08:27] <bruenig> Intangir, or you can switch the echo $KB and echo $GB if you want it to descend
[08:28] <kbrosnan> VSpike: rename the .part file to the exact name of the file you were downloading then in the command prompt navigate to the folder containing the downloaded file and run wget -c http://example.com/file.iso
[08:28] <Crazytom> when you're booting up and you see grub hit e to edit and then add acpi=off to the second line and hit enter then select the top line and hit b to boot
[08:28] <somatt> desmaano: i think it may be an issue with the drive not reading burned cds?
[08:28] <somatt> it is a tray loading imac
[08:28] <Desmaano> somatt: could be, what processor you have ? how many Mhz..
[08:28] <VSpike> kbrosnan: thanks :) I just came to the same conclusion.  I love wget
[08:29] <somatt> desmaano: not sure, blueberry imac with tray loading cd drive
[08:29] <Shaffox> !apache
[08:29] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[08:29] <sebastian> hi people
[08:30] <Shaffox> !lamp
[08:30] <somatt> desmaano: not sure, blueberry imac with tray loading cd drive
[08:30] <Desmaano> somatt: what if you run normal os, click the appel and look for system information or something. it should give all the data from youre system
[08:30] <dauoalagio1> is there anything for a Game Boy Advance emulator for ubuntu?
[08:30] <bruenig> Shaffox, lamp will give you the same factoid
[08:30] <somatt> normal os is broken
[08:30] <VSpike> Desmaano: for example, if you paste the stuff into /etc/xinet.d/Xvnc exactly as he says, it will not work.  You need to reformat it properly.  Someone gives the correct format a few posts down.
[08:30] <gwb> has anyone had trouble with automatix server?
[08:30] <VSpike> Desmaano: they also suggest something else you have to change in settings
[08:30] <giulianino> salve!
[08:30] <bruenig> !automatix | gwb
[08:30] <Pici> !automatix | gwb
[08:30] <ubotu> gwb: 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
[08:30] <somatt> desmaano: normal os is broken
[08:30] <Desmaano> VSpike: missed that comments :)
[08:31] <Desmaano> somatt: i readed it. how much experience you have with Imacs ?
[08:31] <kaktuskatta> Hi! I'm wondering if it
[08:31] <Desmaano> !vnc
[08:31] <somatt> desmaano: none
[08:31] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[08:31] <VSpike> Desmaano: I was trying to do it on an xubuntu system, so I havent yet worked out what the xubuntu equivalents of the suggested settings changes are
[08:31] <Narada> where does apache live; i need to supply ./configure --with-apache= to subversion
[08:31] <Ech1> Is there a reason that my router is not seeing my ubuntu box on the network and is not giving it an ip address such as 192.168.1.XXX?
[08:31] <sigger> does eclipse 3.3 (M5) work in Ubuntu?
[08:31] <kaktuskatta> Hi! I'm wondering if it's possible to change the characterset from UTF 8 to ISo
[08:31] <VSpike> OK, gotta go out... thanks again!
[08:31] <VSpike> Desmaano: good luck
[08:32] <Desmaano> VSpike: tomorrow an other day :) thanks too

[08:36] <Narada> what package has apxs
[08:36] <shane634> Bagualas, post your xorg.conf to pastebin and link it here
[08:36] <bruenig> attack
[08:36] <Desmaano> Ech1: yoo have a router, you know how to set-up a server with nat- firewall ?
[08:37] <Bagualas> shane634: ok
[08:37] <rickyfingers> anyone here know know if beryl will work with twinview with two separate graphics cards?
[08:37] <Crazytom> Mirth, what's wrong?
[08:37] <Ech1> afraid not, I'm inexperienced with ubuntu/linux
[08:37] <shane634> rickyfingers, beryl is beta and may break things
[08:37] <Mirth> Everything
[08:37] <Mirth> :(
[08:37] <Squee> rickyfingers: I dont think you can do twinview with 2 separate cards?
[08:37] <White_Lightning> hey guys, how do I kill the xserver? I mean I want to shut down Xorg completely (which I can do) and have it not restart (which I can't do)
[08:38] <Desmaano> Ech1: don't know how to set NAT-firewalls, but this allways gives problems with servers running at home. search at google
[08:38] <Mirth> I get this:
[08:38] <Squee> rickyfingers: If you can do that with 3d accelaration normally, then you can run beryl
[08:38] <bruenig> White_Lightning, I think you can sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[08:38] <Desmaano> Ech1: its not specific Linux, but more general, search for port forwarding or something
[08:38] <Mirth> GSynaptics couldn't initialize.
[08:38] <Mirth> You have to set 'SHMConfig' 'true' in xorg.conf or XF86Config to use GSynaptics
[08:38] <rickyfingers> shane364: I have beryl installed, and I have twinview working with two separate cards, but when I start beryl it kind of kills the secondary monitor
[08:38] <Mirth> I went into the file and added the line, and saved
[08:38] <Mirth> And I still get that error
[08:38] <Crazytom> mirth does your touchpad work now?
[08:38] <[M] orpheus> shane634: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11215/
[08:39] <oopsy> what dependencies do I need to install rt2500 drivers, without a ethernet connection
[08:39] <rickyfingers> squee: hmmm. 3d accelerationcan you elaborate?
[08:39] <Mirth> The touchpad works, but I can't configure it.
[08:39] <jester_> Hey, I'm relatively new to linux and I'm trying to get my wireless to connect to a network that has 128bit WEP security. I can get it to connect to WPA, WPA2, and pretty much everything else, but WEP doesn't work
[08:39] <XubuntuLover> How do I display the text from a file as binary output in the terminal / bash?
[08:39] <Crazytom> Mirth, did it work before
[08:39] <oopsy> what dependencies do I need to install rt2500 drivers, without a ethernet connection
[08:39] <demon01> is there any way to sync my dell axim x51 (windows ce) with my ubuntu box?
[08:39] <Ech1> thanks; I can forward ports on my router and have done so in order to run a dedicated ventrilo server on my windows machine, however I believe that the ports for the ubuntu box are not truly being forwarded since the router does not list the ubuntu box under it's client listing
[08:39] <XubuntuLover> like top -bn1
[08:39] <Mirth> The touchpad has always worked, but not the configuration :(
[08:39] <bullgard4> acerhk is a kernel module which I could use to activate special keyboard keys. Is there a similar kernel module available for Ubuntu 7.04?
[08:40] <Squee> rickyfingers: in a terminal if you can type glxinfo |grep -i direct" and it returns "Direct Rendering: Yes" then you can
[08:40] <soundray> XubuntuLover: I'm not sure what you mean -- cat filename ?
[08:40] <Crazytom> mirth, i thought you said it wasn't working, i'm sorry.  my touchpad didn't work before until i turned off acpi, but when i turned it back on the touchpad still worked
[08:40] <Desmaano> Ech1: well if the 'ubuntu box' has an ip, just forward to this adress
[08:40] <rickyfingers> Squee: thanks, I'll try that command
[08:41] <Squee> rickyfingers, Or perhaps a better test, run glxgears and put the animation between the windows
[08:41] <ryan_> hey, could I grab some help here?
[08:41] <ryan_> my sound died overnight
[08:41] <Mirth> Yeah, it works, hehe
[08:41] <ryan_> as did my dvds
[08:41] <Squee> er, between the monitors
[08:41] <Mirth> Just not the way I want :D
[08:41] <XubuntuLover> soundray if I have a text file and I want to grep lines of the text, how do I do that?
[08:41] <ryan_> (feisty)
[08:41] <Crazytom> Mirth, if you reboot that line should go back to normal and everything that worked will work again
[08:41] <Bagualas> shane634: did u find anything strange?
[08:41] <soundray> XubuntuLover: grep searchstring filename
[08:41] <Mirth> Yeah?
[08:41] <Ech1> Desmaano:I will try this again right now and see how it works
[08:41] <Mirth> I shall try...
[08:41] <rickyfingers> Squee: just ran the command, and it returns yes
[08:41] <shane634> [M] orpheus what error are you getting
[08:41] <ryan_> anyone?
[08:42] <ethernomad> anyone know how to configure/use the cloop module?
[08:42] <soundray> XubuntuLover: or 'cat filename | grep searchstring'
[08:42] <XubuntuLover> soundray he he, thanks. I knew it had to be easy. is it grep "string1 string2" <filename)?
[08:42] <shane634> Bagualas, what error are you getting?
[08:42] <oopsy> what dependencies do I need to install rt2500 drivers, without a ethernet connection
[08:42] <bruenig> XubuntuLover, grep -e string1 -e string2
[08:42] <XubuntuLover> cat? ok
[08:42] <rickyfingers> but if I switch xorg.conf to twinview, and run beryl-manager, I'll get an error message that glXCreateContext failed for the second display
[08:42] <Mooi_> which package is file /sbin/runlevel in?
[08:42] <bruenig> XubuntuLover, but the -e is an or not an and
[08:42] <[M] orpheus> shane634:  Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0
[08:43] <rickyfingers> Squee: my last message was directed to you
[08:43] <bruenig> XubuntuLover, if you want an and, you will have to pipe it through grep again
[08:43] <soundray> XubuntuLover: yours would work too, but would only find instances of both strings separated by a space.

[08:44] <XubuntuLover> soundray bruenig ok. thank you. Think I am going to play around with that, and read the man files on cat and grep. thank you.

[08:44] <rickyfingers> Squee: I haven't tried.  Do I force xgl by using the command beryl-xgl ?
[08:45] <[M] orpheus> shane634: yes, morpheus@bc-rs.com
[08:45] <Ech1> Desmaano: just tried again and cannot connect from a client; for some reason the ip given from www.whatismyip.com is the same as another computer on my network?
[08:45] <Fuzzy76> I installed Screem, the webdev ide, and now Firefox started sending php page to it instead of displaying them. :-/ Any ideas?
[08:45] <shane634> [M] orpheus, add shane47143
[08:45] <Squee> in beryl-manager, go to advanced options, and it's one of the options there (rendering path i think)
[08:45] <[M] orpheus> shane634: okk ;D
[08:45] <Soulless> Fuzzy76: I've had the same problem.
[08:46] <Flannel> Ech1: that makes sense.  You've got a LAN, that's connected (once) to the internet.  Everyone on that LAN will have the same external IP
[08:46] <Mooi_> thanks soundray
[08:46] <Fuzzy76> Soulless: Did you find a solution? I've actually had this problem once before, but I just reinstalled and kept away from screem :-/
[08:46] <ryan_> anyone know why that might've happened?
[08:46] <ryan_> damn linux...
[08:46] <Soulless> Fuzzy76: I've not found a solution yet. I just cancel it and retry the link. Ah well...
[08:46] <Flannel> Ech1: you'll need to setup port forwarding on the router, to direct some stuff to your server specifically.
[08:47] <Desmaano> Ech1: I know the problem that the ip echoed from the site is your ip to, but the router has to know it should make a connection to youre internal adress, if theres a request on port XXX
[08:47] <Fuzzy76> That's going to drive me nuts :-/
[08:47] <Soulless> Fuzzy76: Join the looney club...
[08:47] <soundray> Fuzzy76: see if there is a Download Action configured (Firefox Preferences-Content-File Types)

[08:48] <Rhys`> Flannel: Do you know one that would allow me to download ATI drivers? :D
[08:48] <Ech1> Flannel: I've determined the vent server is .103 off of my router, however when checking the DHCP clients table, there is no entry for .103, so the router seems to not be truly "assigning" that ip to my ubuntu computer (which is running the dedicated vent server)
[08:48] <Flannel> Narada: why do you need to compile subversion?
[08:48] <rpires> Hi, i'm a new linux'user and doesn't know much of it.... i'm having some troubles installing Ubuntu 6.06 LTS at a Acer Aspire 3660. Does anyone have a tutorial to help-me doing this (question mark)

[08:50] <Flannel> Narada: 1.3 is hardly ancient.
[08:50] <bruenig> bryanjk, you can have more than one application with sound going
[08:50] <Ech1> Flannel: I have not tried this yet, the network is only for internet connection sharing, so the computers are not truly networked I suppose
[08:50] <rpires> tks bruenig, but i'm having problems with wlan and audio... a lot of hardware from Aspire 3660 is reconize as "unkown".

[08:51] <Desmaano> Question: Ubuntu doesnt interprete my 2 hdd's not right, do i miss some software like lvm or what ??
[08:51] <bryanjk> bruenig, but like if I have teamspeak running, why cant I listen to music also? or anything else using sound?
[08:51] <bruenig> bryanjk, you can or at least you should
[08:51] <bruenig> !sound
[08:51] <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).

[08:53] <lisapc> how can I turn on my Nvidia TurboCache feature?  I looked in my BIOS, and it doesnt appear there.  Any ideas someone please?
[08:53] <soundray> massctrl: or wait for the FIC Neo1973
[08:53] <rickyfingers> Squee: ok I just turned twinview on, restarted x, and ran beryl-xgl, got a screen that was entirely white, with some kind of cube effect going on when I played with the mouse and some of the shortcut keys

[08:54] <Squee> rickyfingers: I'm not sure anymore, check in #beryl

[08:55] <ikonia> rickyfingers: I have used beryl with twinview on x86_64
[08:55] <soundray> anolis_: double click and configure the mixer app
[08:55] <Desmaano> Ech1: np :) does it work now ?
[08:56] <anolis_> yea ive done that
[08:56] <ArrenLex> Wow, the room sure is empty today.
[08:56] <anolis_> the mixer controls wont control anything
[08:56] <Soulless> !gdm
[08:56] <Ech1> Desmaano: no, but I am at a loss for the time being

[08:56] <anolis_> i can put everything on mute and it still plays sound, frankly its pissing my dad off cuause he cant sleep :P
[08:56] <massctrl> soundray: hm but i'm not keen on touchscreens,..
[08:56] <soundray> ArrenLex: check back on 19 April. It'll be busy then...
[08:56] <Desmaano> Ech1: get a good sleep and try again an other time when ur fresh again :)
[08:57] <ArrenLex> soundray: Is that when feisty is released?
[08:57] <massctrl> soundray: somehow, I miss the relief,

[08:57] <Ech1> Desmaano: I will try this shortly, thanks for the advice
[08:57] <Soulless> anolis_: uplug the speakers? :D
[08:57] <soundray> ArrenLex: yes
[08:57] <bigjohnto> anyone know how to use xming?
[08:57] <Desmaano> np
[08:57] <sp0ro> How do you use GTK themes? Theme manager won't install them properly.
[08:57] <ArrenLex> soundray: I remember when edgy was released. xD
[08:57] <anolis_> soundray, did you see my messages (sorry for not puitting your name in them)
[08:57] <bigjohnto> i have dual monitors i want everything from Xming to be send to the second monitor
[08:57] <ikonia> sp0ro: then they are probably packaged wrong
[08:58] <[M] orpheus> shane634: can you help me here?
[08:58] <Soulless> anolis_ no, I dropped out of my login session by accident.
[08:58] <massctrl> soundray: i got a qtek with touchscreen, and it worked seriously on my nerves, could be the bad quality of the implementation too of course
[08:58] <ikonia> bigjohnto: xinerama or twinview
[08:58] <anolis_> ok hold on
[08:58] <soundray> anolis_: yes, and I noticed the inappropriate language, too
[08:58] <lisapc> should edgy turn on my hdd DMA automatically?
[08:58] <shafto> What do you do with a .bin file?
[08:58] <soundray> anolis_: do you have more than one sound card?
[08:58] <bigjohnto> ikonia: are those opensource Xdisplays?
[08:58] <sp0ro> ikonia: I am trying to install Neutronium, it's pretty popular or so I hear atleast.
[08:58] <Ech1> Flannel: might you know how to test connecting to the ubuntu computer from another computer?
[08:58] <shane634> [M] orpheus, yeah you are missing something in xorg.conf
[08:58] <ArrenLex> shafto: chmod +x file.bin && ./file.bin
[08:58] <Desmaano> Flannel: received my message about the interprete 'error' of ubuntu ?
[08:58] <ikonia> bigjohnto: no - they are dual monitor techniques
[08:58] <soundray> lisapc: normally, yes
[08:58] <[M] orpheus> shane634: what?
[08:58] <Flannel> Ech1: uh, connect to the server with... teamspeak or whatever.
[08:58] <shane634> [M] orpheus,  give the envy script a shot
[08:59] <Narada> Flannel: well it is almost like a different brnach
[08:59] <[M] orpheus> hehehe, i'm doing that now shane634
[08:59] <Flannel> Desmaano: yeah.  So, no harddrives show up? or what?  Where are you seeing this?
[08:59] <Narada> Flannel: okay i decided to revert back to the apt version
[08:59] <shane634> [M] orpheus, the compositing section is not there
[08:59] <sp0ro> ikonia: should I be using GTK 1.x or 2.x themes?
[08:59] <bigjohnto> ok where can i get them
[08:59] <Narada> Flannel: any idea how i can clean the one i compiled from source
[08:59] <ArrenLex> sp0ro: 2
[08:59] <ikonia> sp0ro: don't know
[08:59] <ikonia> bigjohnto: what ???
[08:59] <Mooi_> should I take 6.10 or 6.06 TLS?
[08:59] <anolis_> soundray, yea ive tried using the sound mixer applet to setup my sound, and it seems as though i can put all the settings on mute and it will keep playing sound (i did set a default sound device manually when i first installed feisty, could this have borked stuff up? should i reinstall?)
[08:59] <Ech1> Flannel: Ah; yes I have tried connecting to the ventrilo server with a client on my windows computer on the same network; no dice
[08:59] <ikonia> bigjohnto: they are configuration options for xorg and the other is an nvidia driver option
[08:59] <Narada> Flannel: or can i just overwrite it with apt
[09:00] <Flannel> Narada: no, you can't.  manually installed packages exist outside of the package manager.  I mean, if the files went to the same place, you could.  Try "make uninstall"
[09:00] <lisapc> soundray, how can I check if its on?
[09:00] <soundray> anolis_: I don't know, if it
[09:00] <bigjohnto> ikonia: no i am using xming on windows pc and need to have all xwindows placed on my second monitor
[09:00] <Desmaano> Flannel: when i open up 'my computer' the systemdisk properties says Size of disk unknown, and for disk 2 it represents it as a floppy disk drive
[09:00] <Ech1> Flannel: I can however run a server on the windows computer and connect on the client on the same computer
[09:00] <soundray> anolis_: I don't know, if it's feisty, you might want to ask in #ubuntu+1
[09:00] <ikonia> bigjohnto: this isn't windows support
[09:00] <anolis_> ok, soundray thanks for your help
[09:00] <soundray> lisapc: install hdparm and read man hdparm
[09:01] <Mooi_> Is there like a netinstall CD available for 6.10 ? I wanna install it through the network
[09:01] <bigjohnto> ikonia: i figured but i thought that the linux forumns would know display properties the best
[09:01] <ikonia> bigjohnto: no
[09:01] <Desmaano> Ech1: try cmd ping 192.168.1.103 from the windows machine
[09:01] <Flannel> Ech1: you'll have to figure out what's causing the network trouble
[09:01] <bigjohnto> as xming is built for use with unix/linux networks

[09:01] <Askar> How do I make mplayer my default videoplayer? =-O
[09:02] <lisapc> soundray, sudo hdparm -d1 /dev/sda says:  HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device
[09:02] <ArrenLex> Askar: In what?
[09:02] <Desmaano> Ech1: first determine or the LAN connections are proper set, and there is certainly no interference of a firewall or so
[09:02] <unimatrix9> hello all
[09:02] <Askar> ArrenLex: ubuntu
[09:02] <soundray> lisapc: this indicates that your hardware doesn't support DMA
[09:02] <Askar> ArrenLex: gnome
[09:02] <Flannel> Desmaano: "My computer"?  is this in windows? or what?
[09:02] <lisapc> soundray, its a brand new system
[09:02] <Desmaano> Flannel: no in ubuntu
[09:02] <soundray> lisapc: SATA?
[09:02] <Narada> Flannel: no such target
[09:03] <Narada> Flannel: can i just overwrite it with apt
[09:03] <unimatrix9> si the ubuntu-migration-assistant also as an .deb package somewhere?
[09:03] <unimatrix9> is
[09:03] <proog> i installed the flashplugin-nonfree package, but flash is still not working in firefox... any ideas?
[09:03] <Ech1> Desmaano: the ping was returned
[09:03] <Flannel> Narada: then looks like you'll have to make (not make install) then take a gander at all teh stuff there, then remove those files manually.
[09:03] <bootsbradford> i've been having some problems mounting a camera, it's always worked before but today has decided to bring up an error message!
[09:03] <Narada> Flannel: christ!
[09:03] <Flannel> Narada: 1.4 is in Feisty too, by the way.  So, if you survive with 1.3 for a month, you'll have Feisty.
[09:04] <Narada> Flannel: hmmmm .... really
[09:04] <soundray> proog: have you restarted firefox since the installation?
[09:04] <Flannel> Narada: That's why package management exists, so one doesn't have to manually do stuff.
[09:04] <kbrosnan> proog: make sure there are not any confilicting flash plugins installed, type about:plugins in the addres bar
[09:04] <Desmaano> Ech1: if it was a 'normal' respond like a few miliseconds, e.g. 10 ms it should be fine, problem should be with connection from LAN to I-net
[09:04] <Flannel> Narada: of course.  Each version of ubuntu has new stuff.  1.3 was brand new when Edgy came out.
[09:04] <soundray> proog: you may have to force it with killall firefox-bin
[09:04] <Ech1> Flannel: Thanks for your time
[09:04] <Narada> Flannel: i know that; but there are package management software out there that doesn't lag behind frustrating people
[09:04] <lisapc> soundray, SATA?
[09:04] <someone1> hey, how do i install the latest linux-restricted-modules in ubuntu 6.1? ( i need to get the latest mad wifi drivers installed)
[09:05] <bryanjk> I found the problem.... I can't run teamspeak with any other application using sound for some reason.
[09:05] <unimatrix9> can i download the ubuntu-migration-assistant some where?
[09:05] <Ech1> Desmaano: yes, it was 5ms maximum, so there is something odd between the lan and the internet?
[09:05] <bryanjk> Would anyone know why?
[09:05] <Narada> Flannel: for example the trac version on edgy has a major bug but they never upgraded it
[09:05] <Flannel> Narada: it's not a "lag" thing, it's a design choice.  If you want the newest versions all the time, Ubuntu might not be for you.
[09:05] <soundray> lisapc: Serial ATA, the successor to IDE
[09:05] <Narada> Flannel: yeah
[09:05] <erUSUL> someone1: the ones you get through apt are the most up to day for your distribution
[09:05] <proog> kbrosnan, i tried installing it with the regular installer at first, but it insisted on installing to ~/.mozilla
[09:05] <Flannel> Narada: Which bug?  Bugfixes are backported.  There have been two (if I remember correctly) bugfixes.
[09:05] <soundray> Narada: fixes for major bugs go into backports
[09:05] <proog> kbrosnan: can this be the conflict
[09:05] <Desmaano> Ech1: probally, the lan works fine, so problems should be with the lan to inet connection, what port does Ventrilo uses ?
[09:05] <Narada> Flannel: the no such changeset bug; how do i install these so called backports
[09:06] <someone1> erusul: how do i install madwifi through apt-get?
[09:06] <soundray> !backports > Narada, read the private msg from ubotu pls
[09:06] <kbrosnan> proog: no, i was talking about having flash free or gnash installed
[09:06] <bootsbradford> any ideas what to do with the following error message when trying to plug a digital camera in to upload some photos: "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."
[09:06] <Narada> soundray: okay
[09:06] <Flannel> Narada: no no, not "backports", the real edgy package.
[09:06] <Desmaano> Ech1: you're internet provider mayby could block this port, if not the problem is within the router.
[09:06] <proog> kbrosnan: i havent tried to install any of those
[09:06] <Flannel> Narada: which version did the subversion people fix it in?
[09:07] <kbrosnan> proog: still take a look at about:plugins
[09:07] <Ech1> Desmaano: Ventrilo uses port 3784, I forwarded this in the router both for the ubuntu computer and for the windows computer, the windows computer can run the server and have people connect to it, the ubuntu one cannot
[09:09] <Narada> Flannel: i mean trac for the bug
[09:09] <soundray> proog: have you restarted firefox since the installation?
[09:09] <Flannel> Narada: right, which version/patch was it fixed in?
[09:09] <Narada> Flannel: they fixed in the one after edgy
[09:09] <Narada> Flannel: i don't remember exactly
[09:09] <Ech1> Desmaano: could forwarding this port twice cause it to not work correctly?
[09:09] <bryanjk> does anyone know why I cant run Teamspeak 2 and any application that uses sound at the same time?
[09:09] <proog> soundray: yes, several times
[09:09] <soundray> proog: did you try the killall as I suggested?
[09:09] <lisapc> soundray, so they dont need DMA?
[09:09] <ArrenLex> bryanjk: Can you run any two applications that play sounds at the same time?
[09:09] <bryanjk> yes
[09:09] <TheVault> Hello guys, wheres the channel where you can talk about the new Feisty Fawn release?
[09:09] <proog> kbrosnan: it lists 2 shockwave flash plugins, libflash-mozplugin.so and libflashplayer.so
[09:09] <Narada> Flannel: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/trac/+bug/76332
[09:09] <bryanjk> *ArrenLex: yes
[09:09] <Desmaano> Ech1: probally, try only one system to direct to, mayby the router is 'confused' by double instructions
[09:09] <erik> Hey everyone.
[09:09] <proog> soundray: no, i looked at the process table and didnt find firefox-bin
[09:09] <erUSUL> someone1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Madwifi
[09:09] <soundray> lisapc: they do, but it can't be configured via hdparm. Maybe newer versions, not sure, but obviously not the one you have.
[09:09] <someone1> how do i install madwifi on ubuntu 6.1
[09:09] <Ech1> Desmaano: I will try this right now, back in a moment or two
[09:09] <someone1> thankyou
[09:09] <TheVault> What channel would I go, to chat about Feisty Fawn?
[09:09] <erik> Any of you familiar with installing Ubuntu on a Sparc64 machine? B/c we seem to have some problems.
[09:09] <ArrenLex> TheVault: ubuntu+1
[09:09] <soundray> proog: have you checked about:plugins then?
[09:09] <linux_user400354> i just got a new xchat-gnome in the updates, but i dont see any differences in this version
[09:09] <TheVault> ArrenLex: Thanks a million
[09:09] <proog> soundray: yes, as i said before, it lists 2 flash-type plugins
[09:09] <Narada> Flannel: where after doing make are the files to check
[09:10] <Narada> pardon my lack of knowledge on this
[09:10] <soundray> proog: I missed that. You'll have to disable one of them.
[09:10] <erik> Umm if you want to see what is changed, look at the changelog. usually in /usr/share/doc/packagename. then zcat changelog | more or most
[09:10] <kbrosnan> proog: you have the free version of flash installed which is conflicting http://packages.debian.org/testing/web/libflash-mozplugin
[09:10] <GhostDog> linux_user400354, xchat-gnome is a crippled xchat. You might want to just use xchat
[09:10] <gdb> It's not crippled.
[09:10] <proog> soundray, kbrosnan: how do i remove/disable one of them?
[09:10] <bootsbradford> any ideas what to do with the following error message when trying to plug a digital camera in to upload some photos: "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."
[09:11] <erik> Then again, gaim is a good irc based chat client.  also supports yahoo and others.
[09:11] <Narada> is it safe to use fiesty sources.lst yet :P
[09:11] <gdb> gaim is not a good IRC chat client
[09:11] <unimatrix9> proog , rename the bad one in .old
[09:11] <Narada> yeah gaim sucks
[09:11] <Narada> use kopete
[09:11] <AaronMT> Anyone have a vista dual boot guide
[09:11] <proog> unimatrix9, i dont understand
[09:11] <ArrenLex> erik: Not only is gaim not good, it's also not irc based. xD
[09:11] <gdb> It's great for IM, but trying to wedge the many to many nature of IRC into the one to one interface of an IM client doesn't work well.
[09:12] <gdb> I'm using gaim to be here now, so it does work as an IRC client.
[09:12] <soundray> proog: the one you want to keep is the one that's listed with 'Filename: libflashplayer.so'. What's the other one called?
[09:12] <gdb> Ironic that this discussion comes up as I'm trying it out.
[09:12] <proog> soundray: libflash-mozplugin.so
[09:12] <luco> >bootsbradford: had the same problem.  Found the solution on the forum.  Will try to find the message
[09:12] <ArrenLex> gdb: I know, so am I xD it supports IRC but it's not "based" on it; it's based on IM, which is exactly the problem.
[09:12] <enderxim> Would standard debian repos work in feisty? I've heard that some ubuntu version apps don't work cleanly in debian, but is the reverse true as well?
[09:12] <gdb> Right, exactly, yes.
[09:12] <preciosita0410> hola
[09:12] <jexdawg> this is stupid question, but how can i save something (specifically a .odt openoffice doc) to a floppy disk?
[09:12] <kbrosnan> proog: use synaptic to remove libflash-mozplugin.so
[09:12] <preciosita0410> alguien desea chatear
[09:12] <preciosita0410> hola
[09:12] <ArrenLex> enderxim: The versions of the dependencies will be different. Better to compile from source.
[09:12] <preciosita0410> estan ahi?????
[09:13] <bootsbradford> luco: that would be v helpful!
[09:13] <proog> kbrosnan, ok, ill try that
[09:13] <enderxim> ArrenLex: Got it, thank you
[09:13] <soundray> proog: try 'sudo apt-get --purge remove libflash-mozplugin' and restart ff
[09:13] <erik> Configure here oesn't seem to recognize my propper target here  It should be SunSparc64 Gnu Linux or something.
[09:13] <linux_user400354> why isnt gnome-control-center in the gnome menu? i added it in there using alcarte but i wonder why it wasnt already there.

[09:16] <Desmaano> Ech1: i was really into configuring my router to with port forwarding, but my provider stopped the party at the gate :(
[09:16] <Flannel> Ech1: that makes sense ;)  Glad you figured it out
[09:16] <unimatrix9> yes i see it now too
[09:16] <jexdawg> how do i mount a floppy disk so i can save stuff to my a: drive?
[09:16] <Ech1> Desmaano: Sorry to hear that
[09:16] <Narada> Flannel: i meant trac on edgy was buggy; not svn
[09:16] <unimatrix9> thats to bad, i would like to use it as rescue too
[09:16] <soundray> jexdawg: use the mtools package to use commands similar to DOS
[09:17] <Narada> Flannel: anyway, as soon as i figure out how to get rid of the source version i'll go back to apt
[09:17] <need411> if you give a non-root user on your system "administrative privaledges" is that user now a "root-user? or does that just give them access to terminal and such?
[09:17] <jexdawg> i'll pretend i know what you said soundray. off i go.
[09:17] <Narada> Flannel: is it safe to use feisty sources.lst yet
[09:17] <Desmaano> Ech1: doesnt matter, i know how i can when i change from provider, and good luck with youre ventrilo server :)
[09:17] <ArrenLex> need411: How exactly do you give a non-root user permanent "administrative privileges"?
[09:17] <gdb> jexdawg: There is a package called mtools that give you a variety of DOS-like commands to use to work with floppy disks without mounting them, assuming they are FAT formatted (most are).
[09:17] <need411> easy.. just go to "users"
[09:18] <gdb> jexdawg: You can use commands like mdir, mcopy, mdel, etc, all "DOS" commands prefaced with the letter m, hence the "mtools".
[09:18] <octoberdan> When I apt-get install cupsys, it downloads, unpacks, but then fails when trying to configure. I get a ussage message and "dpkg: error processing cupsys (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1"
[09:18] <Ech1> Desmaano: thank you and good luck with your provider changing as well
[09:18] <octoberdan> When I apt-get install cupsys, it downloads, unpacks, but then fails when trying to configure. I get a ussage message and "dpkg: error processing cupsys (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1" I'm also having the same problem with a few other packages, anyone have an idea what's going on?
[09:18] <shafto> Whats the command again to chmod a bin then execute it?
[09:18] <Flannel> Narada: You'd be upgrading to feisty.  And should ask in #ubuntu+1, you can't mix and match repository versions
[09:18] <ArrenLex> shafto: chmod +x file.bin && ./file.bin
[09:19] <Narada> Flannel: ah right;
[09:19] <Nitro> How do I set up my creative mouse in ubuntu.
[09:19] <Nitro> It has some more buttons I want configged

[09:21] <catid> hello.. would anyone happen to know how to prevent the search line from being installed in resolv.conf every time i reboot? it's not a good configuration for me
[09:21] <AaronMT> !dual
[09:21] <jexdawg> how does one go about mounting a floppy ?
[09:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dual - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:21] <need411> I'll try again..   if you give a non-root user on your system "administrative privaledges" is that user now a "root-user? or does that just give them access to terminal and such?????
[09:21] <lun_> is there a way to update edgy to feisty using internet?
[09:21] <AaronMT> jexdawx one would need viagra
[09:21] <ArrenLex> jexdawg: mount /dev/fd0. Appears in /media/floppy iirc
[09:21] <luco> >bootsbradford: editing line 3 in /etc/udev/rules.d/45-libgphoto2.rules worked (see: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libgphoto2/+bug/91250)
[09:22] <lun_> and is feisty beta released?
[09:22] <jexdawg> aaronmt, rofl
[09:22] <LjL> lun_: nope
[09:22] <unimatrix9> is an floppy not automounted?
[09:22] <unimatrix9> :)
[09:22] <lun_> LjL: thanks
[09:22] <bafoc> lun: yes change /etc/apt/source.list the word edgy to feisty... and then apt-get update &&  apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:22] <LjL> lun_: to the latter question. to the former, yeah, but you should ask in #ubuntu+1 (and take careful note of the disclaimers)
[09:22] <jexdawg> no one ever makes jokes in here so i read that way too seriously... and considered it for a second
[09:22] <ArrenLex> unimatrix9: No idea. I haven't used once in years :)
[09:22] <Flannel> bafoc: Don't upgrade like that anymore.
[09:22] <unimatrix9> heeh
[09:22] <Desmaano> unimatrix, a flo..what ?
[09:22] <unimatrix9> :P
[09:22] <bafoc> Why not... worked lastnight just fine
[09:22] <AaronMT> !dualboot
[09:22] <ubotu> Dual boot instructions:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo (x86/AMD64) - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot (Macintosh)
[09:23] <bafoc> My laptop is now updating... and working fine... :-)
[09:23] <need411> if you give a non-root user on your system "administrative privaledges" is that user now a "root-user? or does that just give them access to terminal and such?
[09:23] <jexdawg> mount /dev/fd0 returns the following error:
[09:23] <jexdawg> mount: can't find /dev/fd0 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[09:23] <novok> need help for mutli hosting and iproute !
[09:23] <Desmaano> ok please help me with my hdd's and ubuntu :(
[09:23] <LjL> need411, every user has access to "terminal"
[09:23] <ArrenLex> jexdawg: What does "file /mount/floppy*" say?
[09:23] <need411> so then the answer is yes?
[09:23] <LjL> need411: making a user a member of the group "admin" (which i suppose is what you're referring to) simply gives them the right to use sudo (and gksudo, and kdesu)
[09:23] <LjL> !adduser > need411    (need411, see the private message from Ubotu)
[09:24] <bafoc> Flannel: usually apt will break stuff, or the os when you have thirdparty repos in there, not the main ones from ubuntu.. :-)
[09:24] <need411> well I couldn't check, I'm not currently on the ubuntu machine
[09:24] <Flannel> bafoc: Don't recommend that to anyone else anymore.  Because it's not as simple as that (and wasn't).  You need to make sure you have the proper metapackages installed, etc; update-manager takes care of that.
[09:24] <catid> resolv.conf has a search line at the top that is being added by an ubuntu script..  any idea how to get it to stop doing that?
[09:24] <jexdawg> arrenlex: /mount/floppy*: ERROR: cannot open `/mount/floppy*' (No such file or directory)
[09:24] <jexdawg> should i mkdir floppy* ?
[09:24] <LjL> need411: the first user created during installation, by default, is part of the "admin" group. other manually created users aren't - you have to state that explicitly
[09:24] <need411> ok, thanks..  just wanted to make sure
[09:24] <ArrenLex> jexdawg: Pf, doesn't even exist. xD Nevermind then...
[09:24] <ArrenLex> jexdawg: No.
[09:24] <Kronuz> hey, when the next Ubuntu is released, it'll have Gnome 2.18, right?
[09:24] <bafoc> Flannel: maybe someone should tell that to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=375716
[09:25] <Desmaano> Kronuz, April 2007
[09:25] <need411> well I did but I wanted to make sure that wasn't leaving me logged in as root
[09:25] <bafoc> that's where I got my info
[09:25] <Flannel> bafoc: the ubuntuforums aren't official.  And, you're correct.  Someone should.
[09:25] <Flannel> !upgrade | bafoc
[09:25] <Desmaano> 7.04 right ?
[09:25] <ubotu> bafoc: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[09:25] <Kronuz> Desmaano, will it be available as an upgrade in my Edgy's Synaptic package's manager?
[09:25] <LjL> need411: no, it doesn't. but the user will be *able* to login as root - he just needs to know his own password to do that (via sudo)
[09:25] <jexdawg> so arrenlex.. what should i do?
[09:25] <unimatrix9> fiesty is still beta, right?
[09:25] <jexdawg> unimatrix9, cha
[09:25] <Dasnipa`> unimatrix9, of course
[09:26] <Desmaano> Kronuz: no idea, 6.10 is my first linux and my first ubuntu tried
[09:26] <unimatrix9> feisty, sorry..
[09:26] <LjL> need411: so, surely, if that's an user you don't *want* to have full control over your system, then they shouldn't be "admin"
[09:26] <unimatrix9> hehe
[09:26] <ArrenLex> jexdawg: I could only give you advice on how to mount it manually... but you'd need to be root to access it. Or add it to fstab.
[09:26] <need411> ok, so it's safe surfing w/ that secondary user with admin?
[09:26] <crdlb> unimatrix9, actually it's still alpha
[09:26] <jexdawg> i'll take anything you can give me arrenlex
[09:26] <crdlb> I believe
[09:26] <LjL> need411: i'd say it's quite safe
[09:26] <ArrenLex> jexdawg: Pastebin your /etc/fstab.
[09:26] <need411> as long as that user is yourself, correct?
[09:26] <Dasnipa`> unimatrix9, feisty is 7.04... is it 07/04  yet?
[09:26] <LjL> need411: yes
[09:26] <need411> ok, great
[09:26] <need411> ty
[09:26] <Desmaano> Flannel: have any ideas about my 'problem' or disknowledge ?
[09:26] <Dasnipa`> 04/dd/07
[09:26] <shafto> Can anyone give me a good gnutella client that actually works without java?
[09:27] <unimatrix9> i see
[09:27] <LjL> need411: but if you're creating that secondary user *only* to "surf the web" (or do other things) *with* some additional security measures, then giving them admin will destroy that goal, of course
[09:27] <unimatrix9> never knew
[09:27] <jexdawg> um, arrenlex.... how do i do that? (not pastebin... what command do i use to get output about fstab?)
[09:27] <zcat[1] > Problem; when I save a presentation all the images are references so I can't easily move it. The last time I needed to do this I saved it as ppt and then imported it again which forced all the images into the document. Is there a better solution? (nobody on the OOo channel is talking..)
[09:27] <ArrenLex> jexdawg: cat /etc/fstab
[09:27] <LjL> need411: in other words - if you want to create a second user to use it for "dangerous" things, instead of using the primary user, then don't give it admin
[09:27] <jexdawg> !pastebin
[09:27] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:28] <need411> so only leave them admin while building on the packages.. and then go back to default..  to save the headache..
[09:28] <need411> or never give them admin in the 1st place
[09:28] <LjL> need411, it all depends really. i think you can probably give it admin, and let it keep it
[09:28] <LjL> need411: it's just that, if the *purpose* of the user is to have additional safety, then giving it admin defeats that purpose
[09:29] <LjL> need411: it's not particularly dangerous *by itself*
[09:29] <jexdawg> arrenlex http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11228/

[09:29] <luco> luco
[09:29] <novok> need help to make policy based routing on ubuntu server !plz !
[09:29] <zcat[1] > LjL: just's don't type the password if you get prompted. admin only gives you the option, it doesn't allow programs to do anything more without your pw.
[09:30] <Desmaano> Need some help on my prob; Ubuntu see my hdd #1 but cant tell its size, and see hdd#2 as a floppydisk drive. anyone a idea ??
[09:30] <LjL> need411: i think i'm confusing things more than i'm explaining them. i'll give you the fact: the "root" user can do anything, *at any time*. an user who is "admin" can do anything, but *only* after he's prompted for his own password by sudo
[09:30] <ArrenLex> jexdawg: ....uh... that's your exact fstab?
[09:30] <LjL> need411: then a user that's neither admin nor root cannot touch the system
[09:30] <LjL> need411: if your user doesn't *need* admin privileges, then don't give it. if it does need them, it's not very dangerous to give them.
[09:30] <jexdawg> arrenlex: i think so? unless i did it wrong? i just ran the cat command and thats what came up
[09:30] <dome> any forums about speedtouch modems
[09:31] <dome> <
[09:31] <dome> ?
[09:31] <LjL> zcat[1] : basically, yeah
[09:31] <ArrenLex> jexdawg: Well that explains your floppy problems. xD
[09:31] <need411> ok, I will go back to default soon anyhow..  just wanted to give them admin long enough to get all the necessities
[09:31] <zcat[1] > unimatrix9: when I copy an .odp somewhere else (like to my laptop) all the images and video clips break.
[09:31] <jexdawg> haha. good, i guess
[09:31] <ArrenLex> jexdawg: "gksu gedit /etc/fstab" and go to the last line. Change /dev to read /dev/fd0
[09:31] <Kronuz> hey, how can I make a ram disk?
[09:31] <jexdawg> do we know how to fix it? (also, is there any chance that that is the reason my printer is borked?)
[09:31] <zcat[1] > unimatrix9: because unlike ppt, they're all links to the original file, not embedded in the presentation itself.
[09:31] <unimatrix9> there are lots of people in here, i wonder if it still serves its purpose as first help channel, its hard to follow, dont you think?
[09:32] <ArrenLex> jexdawg: Save. Then you can insert a floppy and "mount /dev/fd0" if it doesn't mount automatically (it might)
[09:32] <Kronuz> what I want is to make a RAM disk and copy all my  libraries there at startup, then mount it as if it were the lib directory
[09:32] <shane634> unimatrix9, i have no problem following
[09:32] <bruenig> zcat[1] , there must be some way to embed them in the file either that or whoever developed it is incompetent
[09:32] <LjL> need411: for the practical side, just remember that "sudo adduser username groupname" (like "sudo adduser username admin") adds a user to a group (admin, in this case), and "sudo deluser username groupname" removes them from it
[09:32] <Fuligin> hi everyone, im having trouble connecting to wireless on ubuntu 6.10, at one point i was able to see spots just couldnt connect to them ,can someone please point me the right direction
[09:32] <michal_> I need some help becouse I isn't know why I have  600x800 and I can't modyfing
[09:32] <unimatrix9> zcat[1] , i exported it as an pdf, but i dont know if that would help you
[09:32] <michal_> ?????
[09:32] <LjL> need411: of course, either command needs to be typed by someone who *is* admin (otherwise you can't use sudo in the first place)
[09:32] <shane634> Fuligin, you have msn?
[09:33] <Fuligin> yes
[09:33] <LjL> need411: so, just as obviously, be careful and never make the mistake of being left without a single admin user
[09:33] <shane634> Fuligin, add shane47143
[09:33] <zcat[1] > bruenig: that was the question. Last time I saved it as ppt and then imported it again and saved it back as odp. That's a fairly ugly hack though.
[09:33] <ArrenLex> lol,  michal_'s babelfish-fu is strong.
[09:33] <need411> lol.. no doubt
[09:33] <dome> hey guys, any ideas why my speedtouch modem keeps breaking the connection???
[09:34] <zcat[1] > can't find anything in the docs either. I have looked :)
[09:34] <unimatrix9> zcat[1]  its also wise to keep originals as backup
[09:34] <need411> probably just create a new user and save myself from myself all together

[09:36] <mestre> exit
[09:36] <kaktuskatta> the only place were sun.com
[09:36] <bruenig> kaktuskatta, well generally, to remove something installed via source, you just delete all the files

[09:40] <jexdawg> arrenlex, sorry about all this but... sudo gedit /etc/fstab won't work either. should i just locate it manually, or do i need to be sudo to edit that file?
[09:40] <ArrenLex> jexdawg: What do you mean, locate? xD It's at /etc/fstab. You need to be root to edit that file, yes. What does sudo say? Your system is messed up.
[09:40] <mon^rch> can I use symlinks to share directories via ftp?
[09:40] <moosa> you could say that my hardware is a little bit new and unsupported
[09:41] <comhack> Hello all
[09:41] <jexdawg> by locate manually i meant open up my /root file and find the file and right click --> open with gedit. i did that, but i can't edit it... i need to open it up as super user, and i can't because sudo gedit decided to randomly not work

How do people view what is inside these packets?  Like can I find a URL within it or something?  When I go to hostname in a web browser its denying the listing of the contents, so how can I see what exactly is going on
[09:42] <fx> I want to view the inside of the packets or whatever i guess
[09:42] <jexdawg> it doesn't say anything. i enter the command and... nothing happens

[09:44] <riaal> Can I add samba shares in ubuntu as well?
[09:45] <ArrenLex> jexdawg: You ever used nano\pico or vi before?

[09:48] <comhack> why is edgy so slow on a core 2 duo with 2048 of ram?
[09:48] <Madeye> kaso,  and is it normal to take long time?
[09:48] <comhack> my kernel shows smp

[09:55] <comhack> i think it is a cpufreq problem
[09:55] <shane634> [M] orpheus, did you get the other deal sorted out?
[09:55] <jenn> flannel, I used ubuntu alternate latest 6.10.
[09:55] <kaktuskatta> Another question: I have around 100+ apps have available upgrades. I don't use all of these programs. Is there any way of filtering out what I want to "watch" for upgrades and not?

[09:56] <bruenig> jenn, k just making sure
[09:56] <shane634> [M] orpheus, no problem

[09:57] <Speedwolf> hejsa: why not osx?
[09:57] <MattJ> .
[09:57] <hejsa> Speedwolf: i got osx on another partition, but i don't really like it
[09:57] <jenn> soo umm... any ideas guy? I'm new to ubuntu. I completly erased my old windows installation and I'm stuck with this.
[09:58] <hejsa> Speedwolf: Do you know something about mdadm +
[09:58] <need411> best way to learn jenn
[09:58] <jenn> need411, haha.
[09:58] <X86echo> jenn how you mange that one
[09:58] <comhack> well after installing cpufreq-tools and running  sudo /usr/bin/cpufreq-set -g performance
[09:58] <comhack>  its fixed
[09:58] <need411> she didn't allocate any space during partitioning
[09:58] <jenn> x86echo, manage what?... you mean removing my old window? yes, I want to learn linux.
[09:59] <X86echo> need411 yes I was going to tell her
[09:59] <Flannel> jenn: and did you install the "desktop" install option from the alt CD?
[09:59] <X86echo> nice one
[09:59] <domee> guys, if not here, where can i get some help with my stupid speedtouch usb modem?
[09:59] <dauoalagio1> jenn, have you tried updating you cards andd reconfiguring xorg?
[09:59] <jenn> flannel, yes... it was desktop install.
[09:59] <kaktuskatta> Should I upgrade ALL the files that have available upgrades in "software updates" ? Could someone please answer?
[10:00] <need411> before I put ubuntu on my new laptop..   I want to know if anyone has had any trouble with touchpad drivers?
[10:00] <Huffalump> kaktuskatta, the first step is to go to System > Administration > Synaptic and "mark for uninstall" all the things you do not want.
[10:00] <jenn> dauoalagio1, I did try envy but it asks me to insert media disc in the middle of nvidia drivers. :( I don't know how to fully configure xorg.
[10:00] <Speedwolf_> hejsa: really, I thought it was a good os
[10:00] <dauoalagio1> need411, touchpad works fine on mycomputer, try the livecd first
[10:00] <Huffalump> kaktuskatta, then "Apply" those changes.  that will remove things you do not want.  AFTER that, then you can run the update.
[10:00] <dauoalagio1> jenn, what are your  cards...eh crap be back in ten minutes
[10:00] <need411> ok, great..  yeah I was going to.. but I just haven't got to it yet..
[10:01] <Speedwolf_> need4ll: I'm using mine without issues
[10:01] <dauoalagio1> need411, i'm on a compaq v5000 if it matters
[10:01] <need411> wonderful.. good news.. had a friend that had an issue on one of his.. wish I knew the make and model..
[10:01] <jenn> dauoalagio1, I have compaq 5000 series too.
[10:01] <need411> this is an acer aspire 5100
[10:01] <treskjegg> hello. I installed windows vista (after I installed ubuntu), and I'm trying to get my multiple boot going. When I installed vista it "disabled" my Grub, and now I need to boot ubuntu again. is there any way to boot my already installed ubuntu from a CD etc?
[10:02] <need411> aren't you suppose to install windoze first?
[10:02] <need411> and then brub, linux etc??
[10:02] <need411> grub*
[10:02] <treskjegg> maybe, but I found a guide for installing ubuntu first too
[10:02] <need411> I see
[10:02] <treskjegg> but it says "boot ubuntu", and a don't know how :P
[10:02] <Flannel> jenn: and the install completed successfully?

[10:05] <Huffalump> treskjegg, conceptually it's easy.  boot using the CD.  identify your linux partition.  run the line command to reinstall grub to that hda
[10:05] <jenn> flannel, it said * starting GNOME Displayer Manader [OK] , then it's back to command prompt with jenn@iaaiws:~$.
[10:05] <PriceChild> dv5237_, sudo chown root:root /path/to/file
[10:06] <Flannel> jenn: now go to ctrl-alt-f7
[10:06] <jenn> jenn@room:~$
[10:06] <treskjegg> ok. I will try it
[10:06] <PriceChild> dv5237_, then you have to chmod it to only root by...
[10:06] <dv5237_> PriceChild: thanks
[10:06] <jenn> flannel, I pressed that but I get no respond. Same screen. :(
[10:07] <kaktuskatta> Huffalump: I think you misunderstood me. I do not want to remove all the programs in the upgrade-list, I just don't want to upgrade all the programs at once....
[10:07] <kaktuskatta> I want to keep the old versions instead of upgrading to newer ones all the time
[10:07] <Huffalump> kaktuskatta, then simply select those items you do NOT want upgraded...
[10:08] <jenn> oh man. :( I really want to get ubuntu. I've spent three days on this.
[10:08] <need411> you have my sympathy jenn
[10:08] <Huffalump> kaktuskatta, you click the orange asterisk... and it pops up the upgrade list, right?  review the items... uncheck those you want to stay old.. and proceed =]

[10:09] <Huffalump> brb
[10:09] <X86echo> startx
[10:09] <bruenig> jenn, which option did you pick at the alternate install screen, "install from text"?
[10:09] <kaktuskatta> Huffalump: That list is like 100+ programs :P I do not want it to "watch" for new versions of all those programs.
[10:09] <Huffalump> kaktuskatta: SOL
[10:09] <Huffalump> brb
[10:09] <jenn> bruenig, I picked "install from text"
[10:10] <bruenig> kaktuskatta, it isn't like that thing sits there all day and consumes cpu, it updates once a day or so and checks. you won't even notice it
[10:10] <kaktuskatta> Huffalump: I only want it to look for updates on programs I often use, and important security updates
[10:10] <Stormx2> Is sun java installed/enabled by default in edgy?
[10:10] <X86echo> jenn try start x or startx
[10:11] <jenn> x86echo, I have tried that but after a flash, the screen is back at the same command promot with jenn@room:~$
[10:11] <kaktuskatta> bruenig: But when that list is so long it seems unorganized and I may be missing the important updates because of all the things I don
[10:11] <mrp193> could someone please tell me how i can mount a windows hard drive as read only?
[10:11] <kaktuskatta> 't care about updating ;P
[10:11] <bruenig> kaktuskatta, it is a lot of work to do what you want because it isn't a positive thing where you tell it what to look for, it is a negative thing where you would have to go through every package you don't want
[10:11] <bruenig> kaktuskatta, just update it all, are you on dail up or something
[10:11] <mrp193> could someone please tell me how i can mount a windows hard drive as read only?
[10:12] <PoI-> ey, ive got some issues, when i try to install ubuntu, i got graphics problems. i cant read anything after the first menu that appears booting from the iso
[10:12] <bruenig> mrp193, ntfs or fat32
[10:12] <kaktuskatta> bruenig: that's 250MB+ .....Would take forever on my line ;)
[10:12] <bruenig> kaktuskatta, 40 min maybe
[10:12] <miguel> i'm on an ancient (P3!) DELL. the installed AGP card has some bad bits and I'm getting vertical lines at regular intervals. I bought a cheap PCI GForce2 clone (MX400 32MB) . Can't seem to get Ubuntu (BB) to recognize it on bootup. even disabling the AGP in BIOS. ANy ideas?
[10:12] <mrp193> it is windows xp so i think its ntfs
[10:12] <mrp193> windows xp does ntfs right?
[10:12] <bruenig> mrp193, right
[10:12] <bruenig> mrp193, if it is ntfs, then it is read only by default
[10:13] <X86echo> jenn what I would do is start over install Ubuntu and then get Virtual  Box for windumz programes
[10:13] <mrp193> awesome, thats how i want it
[10:13] <jenn> I'm trying to set my xserver, but I can't find the correct PCI for my NVIDIA GEFORCEMX 440 graphic card.
[10:13] <bruenig> mrp193, ok so you want this to mount at boot or just this once or what
[10:13] <mrp193> but how do i go about mounting it? (i am a newbie)
[10:13] <kaktuskatta> bruenig: I'm behind a proxy, things are like syrup when it comes to file transfer :
[10:13] <kaktuskatta> :P
[10:13] <mrp193> umm, i can just mount it every time i want to read from it
[10:13] <mrp193> but i dont know the location offhand
[10:13] <mrp193> do you mind if i PM you?
[10:14] <bruenig> mrp193, no reason for pm, do "sudo fdisk -l" and figure out what its name is
[10:14] <bruenig> mrp193, /dev/<what>
[10:15] <mrp193> okay i found it
[10:15] <bruenig> mrp193, ok do you know where you want to mount it, maybe /media/windows or something else
[10:15] <mrp193> yes
[10:15] <mrp193> that is where i want it
[10:16] <bruenig> mrp193, ok make sure that exists "sudo mkdir /media/windows"
[10:16] <octoberdan> gah wine.budgetdedicated.com is slow today. Anyne know of any mirrors?
[10:16] <bruenig> mrp193, and do sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/whatever /media/windows
[10:16] <mrp193> okay typed that
[10:16] <chat1410> has anyone had any luck configuring the USR 5410 wireless g PCIMIA card? i've followe3d any manual i could find (basically replace the default driver with one of an earlier version, it has allowed me to see the card, but it won't connect to any network, even if the network has no password
[10:16] <mrp193> whats the -t do?
[10:16] <bruenig> mrp193, the -t ntfs tells it the filesystem
[10:17] <bruenig> -t ext3 would be ext3 etc
[10:17] <mrp193> okay last question?
[10:17] <waxyfresh> chat1410: how good is your signal?
[10:17] <mrp193> whats a sweet MP3 player?
[10:17] <need411> be back in a few.. thanks you all
[10:17] <bruenig> kaktuskatta, why don't you upgrade it at night or something
[10:17] <bruenig> !media players
[10:17] <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
[10:18] <bruenig> mrp193, I think the general consensus is that Amarok is the best, it is kde though
[10:18] <bruenig> you can still use it, but it is nonnative if that bothers you
[10:18] <mrp193> whats kde mean?
[10:18] <chat1410> waxy: the my closest router is 4 feet away, yet the signal reads only 50%, nothing blocking, it (same room, line of sight)
[10:18] <[M] orpheus> I'm having this error on beryl, beryl: symbol lookup error: beryl: undefined symbol: XCompositeGetOverlayWindow, help?
[10:18] <arrenlex> !kde | mrp193
[10:18] <ubotu> mrp193: 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.
[10:18] <mrp193> whats nonnative mean?
[10:18] <KratoS> 
[10:18] <bruenig> mrp193, you are on gnome, kde is another desktop environment, look it up on wikipedia to get an idea
[10:18] <XubuntuLover> How do I do a search in Xfce? (alls quiet in #xubuntu)
[10:18] <arrenlex> mrp193: It uses QT instead of GTK. Another toolkit.
[10:19] <bruenig> XubuntuLover, sudo find / -name string
[10:19] <KratoS> i need xmms for play mp3s?
[10:19] <mrp193> oh wow, this is a lot to comprehend, i havent even had linux for 24 hours
[10:19] <jenn> When I try to start GUI, I get "Failed to Start the X server ( your graphical interface). It is likely that it is not set up correctly. Would you like to view the X server output to diagnose the problem"
[10:19] <XubuntuLover> thank you bruenig
[10:19] <arrenlex> mrp193: It doesn't matter. You can use it without any problems. Just install it.
[10:19] <bruenig> XubuntuLover, -iname to ignore case
[10:19] <X86echo> I like Xfce4 but I'm getting a error with bug buddy its a old bug in it
[10:20] <Dane1> kratos: you don't need xmms to play mp3s.  You just need the right codecs.  Which version of ubuntu are you using?
[10:20] <dauoalagio1> Jenn, card?
[10:20] <kaktuskatta> bruenig: I guess I could...
[10:20] <KratoS> Danel, I'm using Ubuntu 6.10
[10:20] <jenn> dauoalagio1, my graphic card's name?
[10:20] <X86echo> and I did the rm command if the help forum didn't work
[10:20] <dauoalagio1> jenn, yes your model number
[10:20] <X86echo> bummer
[10:20] <jenn> dauoalagio1, it is GeForce4 MX 440.
[10:21] <Alonea> my battery symbol is gone from my taskbar, how do I get it back?
[10:21] <Speedwolf_> is it wise to install the drivers for my wifi card via ndiswrapper if ubuntu isn't handling my card correctly
[10:21] <Dane1> kratos: go here and follow the instructions for adding repositories and then installing codecs: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy
[10:21] <Alonea> Speedwolf_: I never had any problems with it
[10:21] <Speedwolf_> alonea: right click and add to panel
[10:21] <bruenig> Alonea, right click on the panel, select add to panel and find the right applet
[10:21] <waxyfresh> Speedwolf_: it cant hurt
[10:21] <Alonea> bruenig: it wasn't listed
[10:22] <bruenig> Alonea, it is there, it might be called power management or something
[10:22] <dauoalagio1> jenn, look over this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia#head-f8ea537454e53c8ecf3af0d8946a8162ac1c008d
[10:22] <Speedwolf_> waxyfresh: ta, will give it a go now, was worried about conflict
[10:22] <KratoS> Danel: do you have it in italian?
[10:22] <morphriz> I have a problem booting a machine, when I install an BFG nVidia 7600GS card the system hangs during boot, something about an interrupt handler. Anyone heard of similar problems with that card/chipset?

[10:22] <dauoalagio1> jenn, do you know how to install things and change sources for apt from command line?
[10:22] <Alonea> bruenig: there isn't power anything on the list
[10:22] <bruenig> Alonea, if it was on your panel, it is in there

[10:22] <bruenig> Alonea, unless you uninstalled it or something
[10:22] <jenn> daualagio1, sorry but no. :( but I would love to learn that.
[10:23] <riaal> I can't open/play (videos etc.) located on my other ubuntu computer shared whit samba, anyone know why?
[10:23] <KratoS> ok, thanks ;) i can't chat in to the italian channel!!!
[10:23] <Dane1> np
[10:23] <Alonea> bruenig: not that I know of. I just installed this system a couple days ago.
[10:23] <dauoalagio1> jenn, it's simple, but i think, with some luck, updating your drivers will get you up
[10:23] <lm_> hey can anybody here tell me, if the beryl package, now that it has been made GPL compliant, will be included in the 7.04 release of ubuntu?
[10:23] <progek> I saw a video on Beryl where some guy was spinning icons in a dock station like they were tied together (like a chain effect). Anyone know about this? Is it Beryl or some kind of widget?
[10:24] <jenn> dauoalagio, I tried to use envy to update my drivers.
[10:24] <waxyfresh> lm_: yes
[10:24] <bruenig> lm_, not by default, maybe in the repos at some point, probably multiverse if so
[10:24] <dauoalagio1> jenn, we're going a different route
[10:24] <lm_> 2 diff answers :)
[10:24] <mrp193> AWESOME, TY so much.
[10:24] <Jowi> progek, it's kiba-dock
[10:24] <waxyfresh> progek: beryl
[10:24] <jenn> dauoalagio, oh are we. :P Why is envy for?
[10:24] <Dane1> lm_: you can add repos to get it.  By default, it will support (kind-of) compiz.
[10:24] <progek> thanks a lot
[10:24] <waxyfresh> Jowi: kiba-dock? wh that?ats
[10:24] <dauoalagio1> jenn, well isn't envy a GUI?
[10:24] <mrpoundsign> anyone familiar with getting mod_perl installed?
[10:24] <waxyfresh> !kiba-dock
[10:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kiba-dock - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:25] <bruenig> lm_, they won't include it by default because it requires binary drivers which is against the whole open source bit, they will make it easy to install though
[10:25] <Jowi> progek, kiba-dock is standalone from Beryl but need composite enabled (like beryl uses)
[10:25] <riaal> I can't open/play (videos etc.) located on my other ubuntu computer shared whit samba, anyone know why??
[10:25] <dauoalagio1> jenn, i have intel cards, so i am not sure about nvidia i have heard problems with nvidia though
[10:25] <waxyfresh> bruenig: i thought fiesty came with beryl?
[10:25] <jenn> dauoalagio, I can access that through my command prompt--download it-- and try to install the correct drivers.
[10:25] <arrenlex> bruenig: What?! Beryl doesn't require binary drivers! Where are you getting this from? It only requires 3D acceleration.
[10:25] <progek> ok cool, I have Berly, I will look into kiba-dock
[10:25] <progek> thanks
[10:25] <bruenig> waxyfresh, not so much
[10:25] <octoberdan> What kernel should I be using?
[10:25] <octoberdan> version wise
[10:25] <progek> beryl
[10:25] <Stev1> any1 know  how i find out if my graphics card supports beryl
[10:25] <progek> ^
[10:25] <Jowi> waxyfresh, well, at this time it is an alpha dock/launcher app. youtube should have plenty of videos.
[10:25] <arrenlex> Stev1: What card?
[10:25] <bruenig> arrenlex, from the tubes
[10:26] <bruenig> the tubes tell me all I know
[10:26] <riaal> noone? =(
[10:26] <riaal> I can't open/play (videos etc.) located on my other ubuntu computer shared whit samba, anyone know why??
[10:26] <waxyfresh> Stev1: not sure but "grep rendering" mayber?
[10:26] <lm_> ok... well, it may be that i dont get it quite well, but isnt it so, that ATI users have to use beryl, whilst Nvidia users must use compiz?
[10:26] <Stev1> hmmm, onboard intel
[10:26] <Alonea> octoberdan: dunno if its the same for ubuntu (I have kubuntu) but 2.6.17-11
[10:26] <dauoalagio1> jenn, okay, but let's run a "sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list"
[10:26] <waxyfresh> Stev1: type glxinfo
[10:26] <arrenlex> bruenig: Anyone with an intel card, or anyone with an older ati card, can use free drivers.
[10:26] <arrenlex> lm_: No.
[10:26] <bruenig> oh for nvidia though
[10:26] <scumba1> how do I copy the contents of my home partition to another partition (so I dont leave any hidden data or something behind)??
[10:26] <Stev1> ok one sec
[10:26] <Speedwolf_> trying something, brb
[10:27] <arrenlex> lnATI users have to use xgl whilst nvidia users have to use aiglx. That is the mechanism which allows 3D compsing window managers to work.
[10:27] <progek> would kiba-dock matter if I'm running KDE?
[10:27] <arrenlex> lm_: Sorry, that's for you.
[10:27] <Stev1> there a whole lot of numbers
[10:27] <jenn> dauoalagio1, ok I typed that in. Do you mind If I talk to you in separate window?
[10:27] <arrenlex> lm_: Compiz and beryl both run fine on both xgl and aiglx.
[10:27] <dauoalagio1> jenn, go ahead.
[10:27] <scumba1> anyone?
[10:27] <arrenlex> Stev1: You can use beryl with that card.
[10:27] <Jowi> progek, I think kxdocker beat kiba-dock at the moment. kiba-dock is not finished product
[10:27] <bruenig> for nvidia though, binary drivers would be necessary. I could have swore I read that the binary driver issue on beryl led them to not include it
[10:27] <Stev1> soo the numbers are good?
[10:27] <progek> nice, thanks jowi
[10:28] <waxyfresh> scumba1:  i think the install cd comes with a "copy info from another partition" option when you get to the partitioning part
[10:28] <lm_> .... i guess thats why i cant get either compiz nor beryl running... if been trying to install aigxl on my ati card :P
[10:28] <arrenlex> bruenig: Yep, for nvidia, there are no free alternatives (until noveau is more stable)
[10:28] <progek> installing :)

[10:28] <nevermind_> darn, i mustve been sleeping under a rock the past 3 years
[10:28] <arrenlex> lm_: Well, more accurately, if you use the fglrx drivers you need xgl. The free drivers (radeon) require aiglx.

[10:31] <arrenlex> lm_: Free drivers should support that, but they don't provide very complete 3D acceleration. I have a similar card and beryl doesn't have the functionality it needs so it reverts to software all the time. You should try fglrx, I think.

[10:39] <Jowi> scumba1, http://burninghands.eu/scripts/backup-home - it's a personal one I wrote up for that reason. it will let you make some choices in the copying. it is not complete but functional.
[10:39] <scumba1> waxyfresh: im a novice so I dont know much about anything.. I just need to move my home partition because my current one is too small and the rest of my harddrive is on the other side of my root partition so I guess I have to move it
[10:39] <bruenig> arrenlex, I know that, but for others on here who need stuff
[10:39] <Mooi_> hello, I have tried out fiesty, and it seems not to boot - just doesn't mount the root partition after the install. what would be the problem?
[10:39] <arrenlex> bruenig: Oh. I understand.

[10:39] <peritus> how can i reset the X configuration to the ubuntu default without re-installing my system? (edgy)

[10:40] <tag> arrenlex: I'm rocking edgy
[10:40] <am_rods> help needed: when i turn my computer on it starts loading ubuntu, but after the loading bar fills it displays a blank screen and freezes. i have to turn it down manually (pressing the on/off button a couple of seconds) and turn it on again and so then it loads normally. i have to do that every time i want to use ubuntu. i have a thinkpad t22 with 900 processor and 512 ram.
[10:41] <IdleOne> tag sudo apt-get upgrade

[10:41] <SeansMel> I want to install ubuntu onto a lvm partition contained in software raid5... how would I go about this?
[10:41] <tag> IdleOne: there is only one update.  The update manager does this for me all the time.

[10:42] <waxyfresh> scumba1: oh i thouhgt you were talking aboute your "home foldeir" in linux thats where each users files are storred a sepperate olfer for each user,if you have a live cd you can mount the partition then resize it i think,but ask someone  elsein here before you try
[10:42] <arrenlex> !hi | mauruz
[10:42] <ubotu> mauruz: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[10:42] <Kronuz> hey
[10:42] <LadyNikon> am_rods: any problems with the install?
[10:42] <SeansMel> Thx arrenlex
[10:42] <Kronuz> I need help could someone please paste an strace of your gnome-calculator ?
[10:42] <mauruz> is my frist sesion in ubuntu
[10:42] <am_rods> LadyNikon: no
[10:42] <Kronuz> mine is starting so slow...
[10:42] <whta> what does this error mean?
[10:42] <whta> wine:

[10:43] <bruenig> whta, http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=387824
[10:43] <bruenig> Wiseguy, what are your mirrors now
[10:43] <K3rl0u4rn> waxyfresh: my camera is detected, but access granted by the system are to restricted... the created file is root:root with rw,rw,r access
[10:43] <K3rl0u4rn> that seems not to be enough
[10:44] <Kronuz> please just run and pastebin 'strace -tt -T gnome-calculator' and alt+f4 as soon as it pops up
[10:44] <ice-11> question: I put my system into standby and then recovered.  the X server works fine but i cannot see my 6 virtual consoles when i switch down to console mode.  the getty processes are still running.  What's the problem, and solution?
[10:44] <waxyfresh> K3rl0u4rn: are you root?
[10:44] <dyrne> Wiseguy: what country are you in?
[10:44] <arrenlex> whta: Have you added third-party repositories?
[10:44] <octoberdan> I just installed linux-image-2.6.17-11-386, but when I rebooted into it the system seemed to freeze on "waiting for root file system"
[10:44] <octoberdan> What's going on?
[10:44] <K3rl0u4rn> waxyfresh: sure I'm not :)
[10:44] <K3rl0u4rn> I can sudo anyway, but why should I ?
[10:44] <Wiseguy> dyrne, im canadian
[10:44] <graphys> hi what is ubuntu live cd root password
[10:45] <waxyfresh> K3rl0u4rn: are you root? right click on the file then propertys then see if you can moddigy them
[10:45] <rapid> graphys, no root
[10:45] <Wiseguy> bruenig, just the Main Server and American Server
[10:45] <arrenlex> graphys: There isn't root.
[10:45] <ice-11> any idea why my virtual consoles are invisible?
[10:45] <rapid> graphys, use sudo
[10:45] <Jowi> Wiseguy, either edit /etc/apt/sources.list or in synaptic package manager go to Settings -> Repositories. there's a "Download from" selection ther you can change the country
[10:45] <waxyfresh> K3rl0u4rn: why not?
[10:45] <arrenlex> !sudo | graphys
[10:45] <ubotu> graphys: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:45] <dyrne> Wiseguy: sudo sed -i 's/ca.//' /etc/apt/sources.list      or do it manually with a text editor
[10:45] <am_rods> LadyNikon: i had 6.06 but then upgraded to 6.10
[10:45] <waxyfresh> graphys: type sudo su
[10:45] <K3rl0u4rn> waxyfresh: I can't. Doing operations as root is not good :) this is not a workaround
[10:45] <arrenlex> waxyfresh: that's sudo -i
[10:46] <graphys> waxyfresh: thanks
[10:46] <dyrne> Wiseguy: Jowi's way is best. if you do it manually sudo apt-get update afterwards
[10:46] <Hyper-cool> i'm trying to get a 64bit driver for WUSB11 v2.8  linksys wireless dongle. Where should i look?
[10:46] <bruenig> Wiseguy, what is the country code after the http:// after this command: cat /etc/apt/sources.list | grep deb | awk '{print $2}'
[10:46] <rapid> Hyper-cool, at the manufacturer's website usually helps
[10:46] <waxyfresh> graphys: type sudo -i instead.thanks arrenlex
[10:46] <ice-11> damn. i guess not..
[10:46] <IdleOne> Wiseguy, remove the us. part and get a better connection
[10:46] <Hyper-cool> rapid, didn't find linux drivers there
[10:46] <waxyfresh> arrenlex: i prefer su but i get your point
[10:47] <Hyper-cool> rapid, only win
[10:47] <rapid> Hyper-cool, google for linux drivers, if not download the win drivers and use ndiswrapper.
[10:47] <Hyper-cool> !ndiswrapper
[10:47] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[10:47] <rapid> Hyper-cool, it uses windows .inf files to make usb such devices work in linux
[10:47] <am_rods> help needed: when i turn my computer on it starts loading ubuntu, but after the loading bar fills it displays a blank screen and freezes. i have to turn it down manually (pressing the on/off button a couple of seconds) and turn it on again and so then it loads normally. i have to do that every time i want to use ubuntu. i have a thinkpad t22 with 900 processor and 512 ram.
[10:48] <waxyfresh> K3rl0u4rn: some things have to be done as root,like changing perrmissions
[10:48] <K3rl0u4rn> waxyfresh: yes but such thing should not be done each time the camera is connected to the computer
[10:48] <mushy> how far into the ubuntu install will i be able to run off the disc?
[10:49] <Speedwolf> I've just accidentally deleted my top panel, made a new one, and added what I wanted to it, but it doesn't have networkmanager on it anymore
[10:49] <dyrne> am_rods: when this happens does ubuntu load but not x? can you alt-ctrl-f2 to login?
[10:49] <AlexC_> mushy: I don't understand you're question,
[10:49] <Jowi> am_rods, turn off the framebuffer so you can see exactly at which stage it hangs at. (see bottom of link in !framebuffer )
[10:49] <Speedwolf> what's the command line for starting network manager?
[10:49] <mrp193> what the hell is klauncher and why do i want to kill it?
[10:49] <Wiseguy> IdleOne, i have a 10mbit connection, there is nothing faster available, so dont tell me its my connection
[10:49] <Formateramera> anyone that could help with webcam and kopete?
[10:49] <AlexC_> mushy: you can install ubuntu and use Ubuntu at the same time with the LiveCD/Destop CD
[10:49] <am_rods> dyrne: no it just freezes
[10:49] <arrenlex> mrp193: It's a KDE process amarok needs, and you don't.
[10:49] <waxyfresh> K3rl0u4rn: sorry can you  explain your problem again?
[10:49] <mushy> then here goes nothing
[10:50] <AlexC_> mushy: good luck =)
[10:50] <mrp193> well what if im using GNOME?
[10:50] <mushy> (just coming back to linux ubuntu is great btw)
[10:50] <mrp193> that means i cant use amarok?
[10:50] <Hyper-cool> i am in gnome with amarok mrp193
[10:50] <mrp193> how?
[10:50] <arrenlex> mrp193: You don't listen well. xD I said, they use different toolkits. That doesn't matter. You can use them just fine.
[10:50] <ice-11> question: I put my system into standby and then recovered.  the X server works fine but i cannot see my 6 virtual consoles when i switch down to console mode.  the getty processes are still running.  What's the problem, and solution?
[10:50] <bruenig> let's say I have blahblahblahTHINGblahblahblah, and I wanted to through sed or anything else make it where THING and everything after thing is gone, assuming I don't know what the stuff after thing is though
[10:50] <Hyper-cool> mrp193, use synaptic to install amarok and it will do it all
[10:50] <IdleOne> Wiseguy, I didnt mean your connection was slow what I meant to say was that by removing the us. ( country code ) you would use the main ubuntu repos and get better download speed. us.archive is usually slow and not always as up to date as other repos
[10:50] <arrenlex> mrp193: By installing it and them running it.
[10:50] <waxyfresh> Wiseguy: ooooh 10......
[10:51] <am_rods> how do it turn the framebuffer off?
[10:51] <mrp193> i just installed linus 24 hours ago arrenlex, sorry, bear with me
[10:51] <kaktuskatta> !backport
[10:51] <IdleOne> Wiseguy, sorry for not being clear 
[10:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about backport - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:51] <IdleOne> !backports | kaktuskatta
[10:51] <ubotu> kaktuskatta: If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports
[10:51] <arrenlex> Hehe... you installed Linux.

[10:52] <waxyfresh> Wiseguy: yes?
[10:52] <Jowi> am_rods, actually not the bottom. almost middle on that page...
[10:53] <Wiseguy> IdleOne, i was using the main servers earlier and was only pulling about 20-30kb/sec?
[10:53] <dauoalagio1> how do i find out which kernel i have installed
[10:53] <Wiseguy> [16:50]  <waxyfresh> -Wiseguy: ooooh 10......
[10:53] <Wiseguy> ?
[10:53] <Wiseguy> 10 what
[10:53] <arrenlex> dauoalagio1: uname -r
[10:53] <waxyfresh> Wiseguy: 10mbit
[10:53] <dauoalagio1> thanks arrenlex
[10:53] <IdleOne> mrp193, to install amarok open a terminal and type sudo apt-get install amarok also see !cli and !universe
[10:53] <Wiseguy> waxyfresh, ohh i see now
[10:53] <mrp193> my head is spining
[10:53] <mrp193> linux is a bit overwhelming
[10:54] <beg1689> whats the big difference between apt-get and aptitude?
[10:54] <arrenlex> mrp193: The first time you used windows everything made sense? :)
[10:54] <IdleOne> !cli > mrp193
[10:54] <waxyfresh> Wiseguy: im on a 4mbit dsl that dosent even get up to 1 mbit for some reason..:(
[10:54] <IdleOne> mrp193, see a window from ubotu ? follow that link
[10:54] <arrenlex> beg1689: aptitude installs recommended packages as well as dependencies. apt-get installs only actual dependencies.
[10:54] <IdleOne> !universe > mrp193
[10:54] <beg1689> oh i c
[10:54] <mrp193> ok
[10:54] <arrenlex> IdleOne: Wouldn't it be better to tell him how to use synaptic?
[10:55] <mrp193> well i did sudo aptitude install amarok
[10:55] <Wiseguy> waxyfresh, at this point, i wouldnt even mind 1mbit/sec :P
[10:55] <arrenlex> mrp193: Then you should already have it.
[10:55] <IdleOne> arrenlex, he is going to need to learn how to use cli anyway might as well learn now
[10:55] <mrp193> and it installed but i kept geting the klauncher error
[10:55] <Wiseguy> IdleOne, just remove the .us from sources.lst?
[10:55] <waxyfresh> how do you check to see who the bots are in a room
[10:55] <arrenlex> IdleOne: No, actually, it's best he learns it when he's got his head around how to use the system itself, and not on the first day.
[10:55] <beg1689> are they gonna have the rt2x00 drivers in feisty? cause the default ones in edgy dont seem to work at all
[10:55] <LadyNikon> woops he left.
[10:56] <zcat[1] > beg1689: the ones in edgy worked for my lappy
[10:56] <Speedwolf> what's the command line for starting network manager?
[10:56] <IdleOne> Wiseguy, yeah right now you have deb http://us.archive well delete the us. part so it looks like deb http://archive
[10:56] <beg1689> not for my wusb54gc, i had to download and compile myself
[10:56] <IdleOne> Wiseguy, remember to sudo apt-get update after saving the sources.list
[10:56] <zcat[1] > hmm..
[10:57] <zcat[1] > was that 2400 or 2500 ?
[10:57] <beg1689> rt73
[10:57] <Wiseguy> IdleOne, ok ill try it out.. but originally i was using as Canadian Mirror and it was going so slow... so then i changed to the Main Server and was still getting slow speeds, and then when i tried to switch back to Canadian Mirror it wasnt in the list anymore.. so im using the US one now, still only averaging about 25kb/sec
[10:57] <IdleOne> arrenlex, perhaps your right.
[10:57] <dv5237_> a long time i created a textfile whit nano now i want change the premissions so only root is allowed to READ and WRITE i already tried "sudo chown root:root /path/to/file" whit this command i cant WRITE but can read does anyone know something else i can try?
[10:58] <beg1689> it *tries* to make it work, it gives me 2 devices, wmaster0 and wlan0, but i cant get them to work at all
[10:58] <Kronuz> somed00d, can anyone please help me?
[10:58] <Jowi> dv5237, chown changes owner but "chmod" changes permissions
[10:58] <kosnick> i install icecast2 with synaptic . It is eing created and then it belongs to icecast2 user. So i have no privileges to do anything about it . Any suggestions?
[10:58] <arrenlex> dv5237_: sudo chmod 000 <file>
[10:58] <dyrne> dv5237_: the easiest way is to use + or - like sudo chmod -r file
[10:58] <K3rl0u4rn> waxyfresh: my problem is each time I connect my camera to the computer, the photo retriever software complains about not having access to the plugged device
[10:58] <concept10> Hello all.  Im thinking of doing some screencasts covering configuration of certain aspects of Ubuntu. Any requests?  No matter how complex, I will do them.
[10:58] <IdleOne> Wiseguy, you can change it manualy via sudo nano ( or gedit ) /etc/apt/sources.list provided you enter a valid country code you should be good to go als see !easysource I believe you can set it so it doesnt use a country
[10:58] <kosnick> Has anyone installed icecast2 before?
[10:59] <K3rl0u4rn> waxyfresh: when I sudo chmod 666 /dev/bus/usb/whatever_is_the_device
[10:59] <dv5237_> arrenlex: thanks that worked
[10:59] <K3rl0u4rn> waxyfresh: it then works

[10:59] <Wiseguy> IdleOne, ok cool, ill try it out, thanks
[10:59] <K3rl0u4rn> waxyfresh: but this has to be done each time  I connect the device
[10:59] <IdleOne> Wiseguy, no problem

[10:59] <kazik> there is my xorg.conf http://wklej.org/id/731ecc5a9f

[11:03] <Adlai> K3rl0u4rn, search forums and newsgroups
[11:03] <BecomingLumberg> has anyone in here experienced mplayer jitter issues in the x64 build of edgy?
[11:03] <Jowi> K3rl0u4rn, "gksudo users-admin", properties on the user. click "priviledges"tab and see if "access external storage.." is ticked.
[11:03] <kosnick> idleone : i install icecast2 (:streaming server) with it. It installs the server but then the /etc/icecast2 directory belongs to "icecast2" user whom i cannot access. I can not access the /etc/icecast2 directory not even with sudo
[11:03] <Speedwolf> what's the command line for starting network manager?
[11:03] <Alonea> Ok, when I click on the amarok icon, it does the bouncy symbol thing, but doesn't load. If I load it in the terminal as user it says "Updating database" thing and doesn't load. If I load it in the terminal as root, it loads fine.
[11:03] <kosnick> speedwolf : probably network-admin
[11:03] <IdleOne> kosnick, that is not a synaptic problem and sorry I dont know about icecast2
[11:03] <Dane1> it's network-admin
[11:03] <arrenlex> lisapc: http://arrenlex.ls.la/screenshots/12757.png
[11:04] <octoberdan> I've migrated, almost %100 successfully, from Debian to Ubuntu. The only odity is that when I installed kernel 2.6.17-11-386 after I was done, menu.lst has the kernel image listed with the title "Debian GNU/Linux" and not "Ubuntu, ..." Why?
[11:04] <kosnick> idleone , it has to do with the package maintainging , i think
[11:04] <waxyfresh> !icecast
[11:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about icecast - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:04] <lisapc> arrenlex,  there is no dictionary installed
[11:04] <Speedwolf> kosnick: lol, not that one, the gnome network app
[11:04] <progek> I've been trying to get kxdocker to work but I get this error trying to start it-> http://progek.homelinux.net:8080/test/help.png anyone know of a fix?
[11:04] <concept10> No, its NetworkManager
[11:05] <arrenlex> lisapc: Install one. openoffice.org-l10n-<language code>
[11:05] <Alonea> ok, this thing is telling me to make my path to /usr/local/arm-elf/bin so how do I do that?
[11:05] <lisapc> arrenlex,  your comment made NO sense
[11:05] <concept10> and nm-applet
[11:05] <arrenlex> lisapc: Install a dictionary.
[11:05] <lisapc> arrenlex,  how?
[11:05] <waxyfresh> anyone know what time it is in new england?
[11:05] <lisapc> arrenlex,  you are not helpful at all
[11:05] <progek> I've tried reinstalling, installed from repos and even a deb I found on the internet. Same issue
[11:06] <dyrne> Alonea: if you 'echo $PATH' youll see the present path id gedit ~/.bashrc  and include the whole path with the new dir too
[11:06] <Deafboy> I broke ubuntu somehow, when i boot it i just get a blank screen that's the same color as the default desktop
[11:06] <arrenlex> lisapc: By installing a language package in synaptic. The language packages have the name openoffice.org-l10n-<language code>
[11:06] <Dane1> 7:06pm in new england, I think
[11:06] <IdleOne> beg1689, try /msg Enverex  see if that helps
[11:06] <arrenlex> lisapc: In synaptic, go to 'search' and type in openoffice.org-l10n
[11:06] <lisapc> arrenlex,  ok
[11:06] <arrenlex> lisapc: It will give you a list of such packages.
[11:06] <lisapc> arrenlex,  thanks
[11:06] <octoberdan> Is there a way to regenerate menu.lst or something?

[11:07] <whta> is this ubuntu's fault or wine's fault? W: Failed to fetch http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/pool/main/w/wine/wine_0.9.33~winehq0~ubuntu~6.10-1_i386.deb ; 404 Not Found
[11:07] <devilsadvocate> whta, niether :P
[11:07] <cables> whta, why aren't you installing from the repos?
[11:07] <devilsadvocate> your repo seems to be messed up
[11:07] <whta> because it gave me an error
[11:08] <waxyfresh> whta: where the error comming from?
[11:08] <whta> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=387824&page=2
[11:08] <cables> devilsadvocate, repos shouldn't be fetching from there...
[11:08] <lisapc> arrenlex,  its not in the list
[11:08] <devilsadvocate> exactly
[11:08] <whta> ^^ same problem as that thread
[11:08] <devilsadvocate> but it is possible to use your own set of repos..
[11:08] <zach> sup all.  i'm having some trouble mounting an ntfs partition here.   it's a raid0 array spanning two drives.  some ls's and the mount error is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11246/
[11:08] <cables> whta, why not use the official Ubuntu repos? Edgy backports has that same version, I think...
[11:08] <Sheepmullet> is their a linux tool that will allow you to monitor what files a program opens/closes/reads/writes to?
[11:09] <waxyfresh> Sheepmullet: yea but i dont know what it is

[11:10] <whta> i'm not sure how to revert back to the ubuntu repo?
[11:10] <LJL> arrenlex, i kicked before i even *saw* what was being pasted

[11:10] <Dane1> zach: don't raid arrays have to be called by a different /dev/ name than normal hard drives?

[11:10] <arrenlex> lisapc: What's not where?
[11:10] <psyke83> hi, can someone check their /etc/hosts file for me please? I want to know if you have "127.0.0.1 localhost", or "127.0.0.1 localhost <yourhostname>" for Edgy users. I'm asking because I'm seeing if a performance fix in Feisty can apply to Edgy too

[11:11] <waxyfresh> arrenlex: i dont know why you ed it
[11:11] <zach> danel: i dunno, i assume that's why it's sdb1 and not hdb1
[11:11] <arrenlex> lisapc: What language are you looking for?
[11:11] <waxyfresh> used*
[11:11] <Jowi> psyke83, I got 127.0.0.1 localhost hostname domain.tld

[11:11] <ompaul> waxyfresh, it was used correctly
[11:11] <arrenlex> waxyfresh: Because of the 50-line chain letter being pasteD?

[11:12] <arrenlex> lisapc: I don't think it specialises that much. Pick whichever's closest, I guess: us or gb

[11:12] <psyke83> Jowi, thanks.. two questions: 1) Are you running Edgy, 2) Did you modify the hosts file yourself since installation?
[11:13] <waxyfresh> arrenlex: ADHD

[11:13] <Dabian> How do I get rid of irda-utils .. the package is very very broken!
[11:13] <ikonia> AWOSLappy: so pick a different mirror
[11:13] <arrenlex> lisapc: What do you want me to say if there is no such dictionary?
[11:13] <zach> awoslappy: use a torrent
[11:13] <AWOSLappy> ikonia: I don't see where to select one.
[11:13] <ikonia> Dabian: remove it
[11:13] <arrenlex> lisapc: It doesn't exist. The people didn't make one.
[11:13] <Jowi> psyke83, edgy. I have modified it yes. don't remember if hostname was there by default.
[11:13] <AWOSLappy> zach: I do not have torrent software.
[11:13] <ikonia> AWOSLappy: on ubuntu.com - it lists them
[11:14] <sixmack> Specifically, under moderate disc activity (say a couple of parallel copies of 100MB files), the cursor turns into a corrupted block of data and then the  machinehangs hard
[11:14] <AWOSLappy> Dabian: sudo apt-get remove irda-utils
[11:14] <zach> awoslappy then get it!

[11:14] <psyke83> Jowi, that's grand, thanks for your help
[11:14] <ikonia> AWOSLappy: so ?
[11:14] <sixmack> sorry about the typos, this IRC flient is not interacting at all well with osx terminal
[11:14] <lisapc> arrenlex,  i found it!  so it exists. you are a troll dude1
[11:14] <Dabian> Ehehehe.

[11:14] <Dabian> Yeee Haaa

[11:14] <shane634> sixmack, get on ubuntu then
[11:15] <Sheepmullet> I have found programs that will tell you when a specific file is opened etc (iwatch) but not what files a specific application opens
[11:15] <bimberi> AWOSLappy: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[11:15] <Sheepmullet> damnit
[11:15] <arrenlex> lisapc: Where?
[11:15] <waxyfresh> Sheepmullet: would it be in your log?
[11:15] <arrenlex> Dabian: ...what?
[11:15] <bimberi> AWOSLappy: ignore, no feisty there.  cdimage.... is probably the only place
[11:15] <Sheepmullet> i dont know
[11:15] <AWOSLappy> bimberi: Oh.  Okay.
[11:15] <ikonia> AWOSLappy: your very lazy - I just googled and got about 25 mirrors
[11:15] <Dabian> arrenlex : Troll!  Troll! Troll! Tr... (etc.)
[11:15] <waxyfresh> Sheepmullet: i dont know where but there hould be a way of monitoring everything
[11:15] <Dabian> :D
[11:15] <AWOSLappy> bimberi: Then I guess I'll just wait the 3 hours.
[11:15] <maler> #wwf
[11:15] <lisapc> arrenlex,  FILE/WIZARDS
[11:15] <Sheepmullet> waxyfresh: yeah I know
[11:15] <bimberi> ikonia: for feisty?
[11:16] <sixmack> sorry about that, this might work better
[11:16] <Sheepmullet> waxyfresh: :)
[11:16] <AWOSLappy> ikonia: I need Feisty.
[11:16] <lisapc> arrenlex,  you are clueless and a troll and wasted 20mins of my time :(
[11:16] <LJL> my trollometer is running out of scale, what the heck is going on?
[11:16] <ikonia> bimberi: yeah, fesity people must download it and re-host it
[11:16] <sixmack> is ubuntu known to work nicely on G965 internal graphics?
[11:16] <shane634> lisapc, haha
[11:16] <Xsylotte> hi
[11:16] <arrenlex> lisapc: Oh, is it in the install new dicts wizard? Then what's the problem?
[11:16] <cables> lisapc, you haven't hung out in this channel much, have you?
[11:16] <Crescendo> I can't get gnome-terminal to start, and I can't figure out any reason why.  Any ideas on troubleshooting?
[11:16] <cables> lisapc, actually, i see you here all the time
[11:16] <lisapc> cables,  no :P
[11:16] <AWOSLappy> LJL: Appearantly arrenlex is a troll.  But I didn't see it so I don't know.
[11:16] <cables> lisapc, how's arrenlex a troll?
[11:16] <shane634> cables, neither have i
[11:16] <firephoto> sixmack: have you tried feisty?
[11:16] <lisapc> cables,  not that much
[11:17] <Xsylotte> i have a question... i've just installed 6.10 ... and i have a strange problem :)
[11:17] <Xsylotte> my eyes hurt
[11:17] <Xsylotte> ..
[11:17] <Xsylotte> something with color or ??
[11:17] <ikonia> Xsylotte: whats the matter
[11:17] <lisapc> cables, i want to insyall dict in OO
[11:17] <Hyper-cool> when i modprbe ndiswarpper after installing an inf it says that the module isn't found
[11:17] <Xsylotte> i have a feeling that everything is too bright...
[11:17] <AWOSLappy> Xsylotte it is probably your refresh rate.
[11:17] <Hyper-cool> ?
[11:17] <johnnybuoy> well, ubuntu is hardly to blame for that one :D
[11:17] <Xsylotte> AWOSLappy: 85Hz
[11:17] <K3rl0u4rn> goodbye people
[11:17] <AWOSLappy> Xsylotte: Hrm.  Okay.
[11:17] <AWOSLappy> By!
[11:17] <AWOSLappy> Bye!
[11:17] <riaal> what application for ssh ftp?
[11:17] <Xsylotte> 1280x1024
[11:18] <lisapc> anyne get spell checking to work on openoffice?
[11:18] <ikonia> riaal: ssh and ftp
[11:18] <LJL> lisapc, as far as i can see arrenlex simply missed a package. it doesn't look like he was *trying* to be unhelpful on purpose. so unless i'm missing someone, why call him names?
[11:18] <firephoto> sixmack: 6.10 won't install directly, you'd have to install with the hard drive hooked up to something else then update the system and then move that disk to the 965 system.
[11:18] <dyrne> Xsylotte: xgamma -gamma number   will brighten or dim i believe
[11:18] <Xsylotte> dyrne: explain pls
[11:18] <cables> lisapc, what's going wrong with the language install?
[11:18] <lisapc> LJL, ok
[11:18] <LJL> missing some*thing* even
[11:18] <Xsylotte> i am new to linux
[11:18] <riaal> ikonia, ment secure ftp
[11:18] <ikonia> riaal: sftp or scp
[11:18] <firephoto> sixmack: i have the same board. running great with feisty btw.
[11:18] <Hyper-cool> when i modprbe ndiswarpper after installing an inf it says that the module isn't found
[11:18] <Hyper-cool> any ideas?
[11:18] <arrenlex> LjL: Actually, there's no ubuntu package for en-au, although the dictionary does exist. I looked in one place but not the other.
[11:18] <cables> lisapc, I believe System>Administration>Language Support will let you install new driver packs, which will show up in Language Settings in OpenOffice.org.
[11:18] <dyrne> Xsylotte: its a command you run from the terminal
[11:18] <riaal> ikonia, sftp is the one. thanks
[11:18] <lisapc> cables, i dont know how to install doictionary!  atm, spell checking doesnt pick up on the errors
[11:18] <shane634> i am new to linux
[11:18] <ikonia> Hyper-cool: is the module there
[11:19] <Hyper-cool> synaptic says it's installed, but lsmod doesn't show it
[11:19] <sixmack> firephoto: 6.10 did install directly (the machine has a SATA CD-ROM drive, an earlier machine with a PATA CD-ROM drive failed to install)
[11:19] <Mirth> Hey guys, it says I need a decoder to play MP3 files in the default player
[11:19] <adx>  how do i tell wget to download only the mp3 files from www.example.com/music/ ?
[11:19] <sixmack> I installed it from a CD image copied onto a memorystick

[11:19] <ikonia> Hyper-cool: search to see if the module is installed
[11:19] <Xsylotte> -> Red  1.000, Green  1.000, Blue  1.000
[11:19] <firephoto> sixmack: oh, yeah, sata cd would get you going, network doesn't work afaik, didn't for me.
[11:19] <Hyper-cool> ikonia, how?
[11:19] <dyrne> Xsylotte: xgamma -gamma 9    for example
[11:19] <grayyoga> what the problem could be with the X server or whatever, that make it ignore .Xdefaults file. I have to merge it manually with xrdb -merge ~/.Xdefaults to get my applications, in particular Emacs, look like they are supposed to be configured
[11:19] <ikonia> Hyper-cool: look in the modules directory or search for it with find
[11:20] <Hyper-cool> Mirth, get gstreamer plugins "good" "bad" and "ugly" using synaptic
[11:20] <firephoto> sixmack: * with edgy 6.10. it's fine on 7.04-pre
[11:20] <DemisM> anyone install wolfenstein on 6.10?
[11:20] <lisapc> arrenlex,  sorry, its not your fault. Im just grumpy today.  forgive me
[11:20] <Xsylotte> 1 is ok :)
[11:20] <Xsylotte> everything else is insane
[11:20] <Xsylotte> haha
[11:20] <lisapc> arrenlex,  I know you tried to help. sorry
[11:20] <Xsylotte> maybe it is too bright for my eyes
[11:20] <sixmack> is herd 5 the current beta?
[11:20] <Xsylotte> i am windows user...new to linux :)
[11:20] <Dane1> arrenlex, have you solved your raid problem yet?  (was talking to a client)
[11:20] <Xsylotte> something is different here
[11:20] <ikonia> Xsylotte: turn the brightness down
[11:21] <dyrne> DemisM: install tremulous but enemy territory should install fine. i think i still have in my home dir.
[11:21] <LJL> sixmack: they're not at beta stage yet, but it's the current snapshot of Feisty Fawn. #ubuntu+1 for more information
[11:21] <Xsylotte> ikonia: everytime when i go ubuntu ? :) hehe
[11:21] <ikonia> Xsylotte: yes
[11:21] <Hyper-cool> ikonia, just find ndiswrapper?
[11:21] <RxDx> please, anyone know a good free website host?
[11:21] <Xsylotte> that is boring :)
[11:21] <Xsylotte> but ok
[11:21] <arrenlex> Dane1: That wasn't me, sorry.
[11:21] <Xsylotte> maybe i am just too tired
[11:21] <ikonia> Hyper-cool: no
[11:21] <Dane1> oh; got it
[11:22] <ikonia> RxDx: thats nothing to do with ubuntu
[11:22] <firephoto> sixmack: download the current daily iso
[11:22] <am_rods> how do i edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst ?
[11:22] <sixmack> firephoto: where do I find that one?
[11:22] <octoberdan> am_rods: Wuith an editor?
[11:22] <DemisM> dyrne: where from i dl'd wolf-linux-1.41b.x86.run from the idsoftware site and tried installing says error while loading
[11:22] <ikonia> am_rods: use a text editor
[11:22] <Hyper-cool> am_rods, nano [path] 
[11:22] <DemisM> libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3
[11:22] <am_rods> ok but it says it is write protected
[11:22] <Alonea> ok, I am still confused on the path thing. I am trying to compile rockbox and I ran rockboxdev.sh which sets up the cross compiler and stuff and at the end it says Make your PATH include :/usr/local/arm-elf/bin .
[11:22] <bruenig> am_rods, sudo nano
[11:22] <ikonia> am_rods: use sudo
[11:23] <Jowi> am_rods, you don't need to do that to disable the framebuffer temporary.
[11:23] <ikonia> DemisM: library conflict
[11:23] <dyrne> DemisM: youll have to install those then. im not on ubuntu but search for those packages in synaptic and install
[11:23] <octoberdan> am_rods: or sudoedit
[11:23] <DemisM> i can see that which libstd do i need?
[11:23] <bruenig> Alonea, I believe you can edit the path in /etc/environment
[11:23] <am_rods> Jowi: i know, i want to try it permanent
[11:23] <firephoto> sixmack: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ is ubuntu, kubuntu is under kubuntu/daily-live/current/
[11:23] <ikonia> DemisM: its a library conflict
[11:23] <dyrne> DemisM: listen to ikonia :)
[11:24] <Hyper-cool> where is the modules directory?
[11:24] <Xsylotte> away
[11:24] <Xsylotte> bye
[11:24] <DemisM> ikonia: ok, I see it is a conflict how can I fix it?
[11:24] <shane634> Hyper-cool, look in synaptic
[11:24] <ubuntu1985> I have partitions sda1,5-19 , however only those up to sda15 apear in /dev/, how can I rectify this?
[11:24] <Dane1> (perhaps after the fact...) anyway, If whoever was asking about raid is still interested, it will most likely show up as /dev/md, not as /dev/sd.
[11:24] <Alonea> bruenig: PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games"  ????

[11:24] <Jowi> am_rods, ok. "sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst" but I suggest you make a backup of it first.
[11:24] <ikonia> DemisM: you can't with your current glibc libraries
[11:25] <bruenig> Alonea, right, tack it on
[11:25] <beg1689> hey guys, im trying to set up ubuntu on a system with very limited space, what takes up alot of space? (i already removed libx11 so that all the graphical stuff is cleared and i can start from scratch
[11:25] <shane634> Hyper-cool, open it in system synaptic

[11:27] <Steil> Hi, PHP was working fine on my box until i rebooted. now when I goto any php pages from my other computers it'll pop up saying that i've chosen to open a phtml file....and asking if i want to open with or save it.....how can i fix this?
[11:27] <matej> what is proposed updates? Like backports??
[11:27] <adx> bruenig: maybe because i have -r. right now it saves the files into a dir with the site's name
[11:27] <bruenig> adx, if you re downloading a webpage or something, it needs to make a directory to put the images and such on it so that the website it downloads will work properly
[11:27] <Dabian> matej : Yeah .. just the opposite.
[11:27] <M4C> /server irc.irc-hispano.org
[11:27] <am_rods> Jowi: now how do it save the modified version?
[11:27] <Dabian> M4C : Whats that?
[11:27] <matej> Dabian, how do you mean that ?
[11:27] <Jowi> am_rods, ctrl-x
[11:27] <Mirth> How do I update Universe?
[11:27] <grayyoga> why ubuntu ignores my .Xdefaults file at startup. i could only merge it manually with xrdb -merge .Xdefaults to make things work
[11:27] <bruenig> Mirth, sudo apt-get update
[11:27] <Alonea> bruenig: :( thing still says its not in path...
[11:27] <Hyper-cool> ikonia, is /usr/sbin the module director?
[11:27] <Dabian> matej : Well, propposed .. that means something that doesn't quite work yet ... possibly.
[11:28] <bruenig> Alonea, close and open the terminal
[11:28] <Mirth> Thanks bruenig
[11:28] <beg1689> yigal: how? when i try to remove a meta-package it doesnt remove anything, because IT depends on THEM reather than vise versa
[11:28] <ikonia> Hyper-cool: module director ????
[11:28] <Dabian> matej : Backports is when something work and you port it back to the stable tree.
[11:28] <Hyper-cool> ikonia, is /usr/sbin the module directory
[11:28] <LJL> Mirth: the phrase "update Universe" doesn't have a well defined meaning... what do you want to do?
[11:28] <Hyper-cool> sorry
[11:28] <ikonia> Hyper-cool: no
[11:28] <Hyper-cool> dang
[11:28] <Mirth> I'm not sure, hehe
[11:28] <riaal> what is the best client to share files between 2 ubuntu computers?
[11:28] <Hyper-cool> ikonia, where is it
[11:28] <Hyper-cool> ?
[11:28] <ikonia> Hyper-cool: /lib/$kernel/modules
[11:28] <matej> Dabian, so nothing is realy stable right ?
[11:28] <Mirth> I tried updating my repositories or whatever, but got an error
[11:28] <Hyper-cool> ikonia, i'm still trying to get ndiswrapper up
[11:28] <Mirth> I still get an error when doing what bruenig said
[11:29] <am_rods> Jowi: thanks
[11:29] <bruenig> Mirth, pastebin the erro
[11:29] <bruenig> !paste
[11:29] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[11:29] <beg1689> does the command line install from the alternate cd include gcc?
[11:29] <Dabian> matej : Excluding some very old computers in the department of defence and in IBM's server suite ... no. :)
[11:29] <DemisM> are there any repos with quake and other 3d fps games
[11:29] <ikonia> beg1689: what ???
[11:29] <Trickser2>  hi, i am having problems with my wpa connection. I am using knetworkmanager and i lost every 5 seconds the connection, although it normally works well. In windows it does not happen
[11:29] <ikonia> DemisM: no
[11:29] <Trickser2> any ideas?
[11:29] <Dabian> matej : Oh .. and possibly some unix-like stuff from SUN.
[11:29] <beg1689> the alternate install cd, does it install gcc?
[11:29] <LJL> beg1689, i doubt it
[11:30] <ikonia> beg1689: don't think so
[11:30] <Jowi> beg1689, no.
[11:30] <LJL> beg1689: why do you need it to?
[11:30] <ThaNerd> hello! how do i read mail from console?
[11:30] <Mirth> I dont know how that Pastebin works...
[11:30] <beg1689> well i can find a way around it
[11:30] <Mirth> It's not long anyways:
[11:30] <adx> bruenig: how would i instruct it not to make a new dir?
[11:30] <Mirth> E: Malformed line 2 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/edgy-universe.list (dist parse)
[11:30] <matej> Dabian, i dont get it ;) my english sux..what did you want to tell ? :$
[11:30] <LJL> Mirth, just paste what you need to paste into the textbox, then type your name where asked, and click Paste. then give us the URL
[11:30] <beg1689> the network driver in the system doesnt work with default install, gotta compile it
[11:30] <Hyper-cool> ndiswrapper is not in modules.dep... does that mean it's not installed?
[11:30] <ikonia> adx: it downloads into the currenct working dir keeping its own dir structure
[11:31] <Dabian> matej : Oh well .. forget what I say .. its way to wise to be usefull .. it might even be rubbish. :)  WHere aer you from?
[11:31] <rapid> Hyper-cool, its not a module.
[11:31] <LJL> Mirth, let me see the file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/edgy-universe.list please
[11:31] <Jowi> beg1689, the server install quite minimal
[11:31] <bruenig> adx, don't know, might be necessary like ikonia said to keep the structure, what are you trying to do
[11:31] <ikonia> Hyper-cool: no.........I told you look for the module
[11:31] <Mirth> How do I let you see the file LJL?
[11:31] <matej> Dabian, slovenia :)
[11:31] <Hyper-cool> i'm confused now folks
[11:31] <rapid> !pastebin
[11:31] <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)
[11:31] <ikonia> Mirth: use the pastebin
[11:31] <adx> ikonia: yes i don't want a structure, i just want the files into the current one
[11:31] <Mirth> Oh...
[11:31] <acto> is there something similar to Cyberlink DVD player in Ubuntu?
[11:31] <LJL> Mirth: you type "gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/edgy-universe.list", copy everything, and paste it all to the pastebin
[11:31] <Alonea> bruenig: nope. still says its not found, not in path
[11:31] <ikonia> adx: it HAS to use the dir structure
[11:31] <Jowi> beg1689, the server install *is* quite minimal (forgot a work there)
[11:31] <matej> Dabian, so you think i should enable backport and proposed repos?
[11:31] <ikonia> adx: it copies the strucutre on the source
[11:32] <Jowi> s/work/word arghh
[11:32] <LJL> beg1689, you will most likely need to download and install GCC and friends manually. i think there's some guides about that, hold
[11:32] <CLIENTE> well well well
[11:32] <Hyper-cool> ikonia, so what am i looking for? an ndiswrapper module? where?
[11:32] <Askar> Does anyone knows a way to have a calendar on the desktop?
[11:32] <dyrne> DemisM: tremulous is really pretty good but if you have an ftp server or whatever i can upload et to you
[11:32] <ThaNerd> where is stored mail sent to "root" ?
[11:33] <dyrne> DemisM: /msg me if you like
[11:33] <CLIENTE> imback and im very very very upset!!!!
[11:33] <Jowi> Askar, gdesklets is one way of doing it
[11:33] <bruenig> Alonea, do echo $PATH
[11:33] <ikonia> Hyper-cool: .ko files for ndis wrapper
[11:33] <Mirth> Here it is LJL:
[11:33] <Mirth> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11253/
[11:33] <Askar> Jowi: does that calendar show what i have in evolutioncalendar?
[11:33] <Crescendo> OH CRAP.  How can I undo a recent scripted file move?
[11:33] <Jowi> Askar, no.
[11:33] <grayyoga> !.Xdefaults
[11:33] <lisapc> how can I toally delete open office?
[11:33] <rapid> Crescendo, you back it up first
[11:33] <Alonea> bruenig: /usr/local/arm-elf/bin:/usr/local/arm-elf/bin:/home/alonea/jdk1.6.0/bin:/home/alonea/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games
[11:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xdefaults - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:33] <LJL> beg1689, now, i *think* that GCC, though not installed by default, is *available* inside the Alternate CD. please anyone correct me if i'm wrong. if i'm not, then it should suffice to "sudo apt-cdrom add" with the CD in the drive, and then "sudo apt-get install build-essential"
[11:33] <bruenig> Alonea, it is in there, the first one, you see it
[11:33] <Crescendo> rapid, yeah - I did have stuff backed up  - but then I moved all the files in the backup X_x;
[11:34] <Hyper-cool> ikonia, sorry to be so n00by here. should use find to get all the .ko files? what is the syntax?
[11:34] <CLIENTE> some 1 from yesterday  here?
[11:34] <dyrne> lisapc: after all that work with the dictionary? :)
[11:34] <Dabian> is it possible manually to remove irda-utils?
[11:34] <moogman> Hi guys. I have a strange problem... /boot/ wont mount. If I try and mount it manually, it says mount: unknown filesystem type 'linux_raid_member'. I think lvm may have somehow decided to start managing it, and broke it. Does anyone have any suggestions where to go from here?
[11:34] <Dabian> (Sorry for x-posting)
[11:34] <Alonea> bruenig: uh huh. bah, gonna yell at bloody rockbox people...
[11:34] <ikonia> Hyper-cool: if you do a google on ndiswrapper you'll find the kernel module name
[11:34] <lisapc> dyrne,  well it doesnt work
[11:34] <CLIENTE> how can i changue my name?
[11:34] <Hyper-cool> ikonia, alright
[11:34] <Crescendo> /nick name
[11:34] <lisapc> how can I toally delete open office and all asssociated files?
[11:34] <Dabian> purge
[11:34] <Dabian> apt-get --purge openofficeorg
[11:34] <Crescendo> lisapc, sudo apt-get purge openofficeorg
[11:34] <Dabian> apt-get --purge remove openofficeorg
[11:34] <bruenig> Alonea, is that the right directory?
[11:34] <slvmchn> how do i mount .cue/.bin files? 'mount' only works with .iso
[11:35] <Dabian> lisapc : apt-get --purge remove openofficeorg
[11:35] <dyrne> slvmchn: you either converto to iso or use cdemu
[11:35] <Askar>  :(
[11:35] <ddonky> slvmchn - no, you can mount bin/cues too
[11:35] <Askar> Jowi: :(
[11:35] <dyrne> slvmchn: cdemu will mount them
[11:35] <LJL> Mirth: i don't know how it got mangled, but change it so that it looks like http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11254/ (you can click on "Download as text" to get rid of the line numbers and stuff)
[11:35] <beg1689> LJL: if thats true than thats exactly what i need, any idea how big the plan command line install is?
[11:35] <LJL> slvmchn: you don't, i'm afraid. you can convert them to ISO though
[11:35] <slvmchn> so you recommend cdemu over converting them to .isos?
[11:35] <beg1689> *plain*
[11:35] <Alonea> bruenig: its the one that the program told me to use...@@
[11:35] <slvmchn> ok
[11:35] <slvmchn> no worries
[11:36] <bruenig> Alonea, you have it in there twice by the way, don't know if that does anything, just saying
[11:36] <LJL> beg1689: i think i recall something around half a gig - but then i'm not sure it's the *same* command line install you're talking about... there's so many options =)
[11:36] <moogman> I wonder whether I should re-format the partition as ext3, and then re-install grub on it. Problem is, I don't know what caused the problem in the first place
[11:36] <lisapc> Dabian,  thanks
[11:36] <Mirth> LJL, do I have to log out and log back in for it to work?
[11:36] <Mirth> After I saved?
[11:36] <Jowi> beg1689, around 350-500MB I think.
[11:36] <lisapc> Dabian, Couldn't find package openofficeorg
[11:37] <LJL> slvmchn: uhm, i'm afraid i don't know what cdemu is. i know that the package "bchunk" can do the conversion
[11:37] <Alonea> bruenig: dunno, thats when I did the export path thing the first time around and that didn't work.
[11:37] <LJL> Mirth: no. just open a terminal, and type "sudo apt-get update"
[11:37] <LJL> Mirth: (after saving the file of course)
[11:38] <LJL> beg1689, how fast is your connection?
[11:38] <beg1689> 6mbit
[11:39] <beg1689> looking through my CDs... couldve sworn i made a copy of the alternate installer
[11:39] <LJL> beg1689: ok, about the same as mine (i asked because if you didn't have the CD and the connection was slow, i could have tested it first)
[11:39] <Crescendo> Is there an MP3 tag tool that I can use to rename MP3s based on their tags, and delete duplicates?
[11:39] <LJL> beg1689: but then i don't have the CD either, and my connection isn't really faster, so you're on your own ;)
[11:40] <riaal> how do I add NFS protocoll to "share files"?
[11:40] <LJL> beg1689: you can probably see a list of the packages that are included on the CD without actually starting the installer, though...
[11:40] <ikonia> riaal: install and configure the nfs server
[11:40] <beg1689> LJL: yea i would like to do that
[11:40] <riaal> ikonia, apt-get?
[11:40] <beg1689> LJL: i only have 2 blank CDs left atm
[11:40] <ikonia> riaal: yup
[11:40] <riaal> ikonia, whats its name?
[11:40] <ikonia> riaal: search for it
[11:41] <Mirth> !decoder
[11:41] <riaal> ikonia,  okey, thanks
[11:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about decoder - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:41] <LJL> beg1689: let me check if someone is using the TV... if they aren't, i'd have 10mbps, and i should be able to download the ISO quite fast
[11:41] <Mirth> Danggit, I don't know what Ubuntu page it was...
[11:41] <Mirth> But it did update the Universe.
[11:41] <LJL> beg1689: ew, they are. well, it's edgy we're talking about anyway, right?
[11:41] <Mirth> !restrictions
[11:41] <LJL> !restricted
[11:41] <moogman> riaal: nfs-kernel-server
[11:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about restrictions - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[11:42] <n-iCe-> how can i know the ip of my machine ?
[11:42] <n-iCe-> in the terminal
[11:42] <LJL> n-iCe-: ifconfig
[11:42] <_emmanuel> iconfig
[11:42] <beg1689> LJL: yeah
[11:42] <_emmanuel> ifconfig
[11:42] <LJL> n-iCe-: though that will only tell you the internal IP - if there's a router or somesuch in the middle, your actual IP will be different
[11:42] <LJL> n-iCe-: to know your external IP type /whois n-ice-
[11:43] <n-iCe-> LJL, yeah i'm using a router i want to know my real ip
[11:43] <n-iCe-> isn't ? 189.134.118.88
[11:43] <LJL> n-iCe-: 189.134.118.88
[11:43] <LJL> yes
[11:43] <n-iCe-> is the router ip i guess
[11:43] <LJL> n-iCe-: no, it's just your "real" IP on the internet
[11:43] <LJL> n-iCe-: the router will have its own internal IP
[11:43] <n-iCe-> !paste

[11:44] <efface> whats the apt to install nforce audio drivers?
[11:44] <huXfluX> hello! if i want to install two linux systems on my pc, is it OK to have just a swap partition? or do i have to create a swap for each distro? Thanks!
[11:44] <beg1689> wow what happened to the ubuntu site everything is different
[11:44] <dyrne> huXfluX: just one
[11:44] <n-iCe-> LJL, : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11256/
[11:44] <ikonia> beg1689: it got "updated"
[11:44] <moogman> huXfluX: There's no point having more than one :-)
[11:44] <bruenig> where are the aliases stored when I do alias whatever='command' from the command line, I usually just add them in .bash_aliases but didn't this time and can't fin dit
[11:44] <bruenig> s/fin\ dit/find\ it/
[11:45] <coiotebipbip> well i install ubuntu and just 2 days after  my hard drive its dead and nothing to do  for save my information on windows
[11:45] <moogman> bruenig: They're not stored anywhere, apart from in memory. When you close the terminal, they get lost
[11:45] <ikonia> coiotebipbip: and ?
[11:45] <bruenig> moogman, ah
[11:45] <moogman> bruenig: If you want them to persist (that is, stay around forever), add them into .bash_aliases :-)
[11:45] <brokenbin> is there any cd-rom emulator for ubuntu?
[11:45] <brokenbin> such as virtual daemon for windows?
[11:45] <bruenig> brokenbin, you can mount isos, there is no need for an emulator
[11:45] <LJL> n-iCe-: so, your *internal* IP is 192.168.1.64. your *router's* internal IP is *probably* 192.168.1.0 or 192.168.1.1, but you can know by typing "route" (see the "gateway" IP). your *external* IP is the one we've said above
[11:46] <dyrne> brokenbin: im not sure you mean like daemontools? you can mount iso files and such
[11:46] <gravemind> is there a gui frontent for ripping cds in mp3 format?
[11:46] <brokenbin> you can?
[11:46] <brokenbin> how can you mount iso?
[11:46] <moogman> I think I'm just going to format /dev/sda1 and hope for the best
[11:46] <brokenbin> what is the command?
[11:46] <n-iCe-> Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface

[11:46] <efface> whats the apt to install nforce audio drivers?
[11:46] <Xenguy> gravemind: grip (but try ogg format instead :-)
[11:46] <Dabian> LJL : Its hopefully not 192.168.1.0  .. thats the network adress.

[11:47] <linuxnewbie756> LJL, gotcha, but do you have a clue why i can't?
[11:47] <ikonia> coiotebipbip: windows first
[11:47] <brokenbin> that's fantastic!!
[11:47] <brokenbin> thanks
[11:47] <LJL> n-iCe-, it doesn't give the address because it gives the "home" plaintext name... but it's going to be 192.168.1.1 really
[11:47] <brokenbin> let me try it out
[11:47] <dyrne> coiotebipbip: always let linux have last word. :)
[11:47] <n-iCe-> ok ok thank you !
[11:47] <gravemind> moogman: last time I checked *sound juicer* doesn't support mp3, unless there's a plugin I'm missing
[11:47] <LJL> linuxnewbie756: mismatched repositories in your sources.list, if i have to guess. try pastebinning your /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:48] <linuxnewbie756> LJL, i never figured out pastebin

[11:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nforce - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:48] <Crescendo> OH CRAP.  How can I undo a recent scripted file move?
[11:48] <n-iCe-> and the internet ip is the other one ?
[11:48] <LJL> n-iCe-: no, 192.168.1.1
[11:48] <variant> Crescendo: move it back?
[11:49] <efface> bot knows nothing!
[11:49] <ikonia> crescendo you can't
[11:49] <Jowi> Crescendo, reverse the script :)
[11:49] <Flannel> linuxnewbie756: well that explains why then.  You can't randomly mixmatch repositories like that.  The wine in your... wine repository isn't edgy compatable.
[11:49] <variant> Crescendo: if you moved the file into oblivion, then it's gone :)
[11:49] <n-iCe-> 192.168.1.1 , ok if someone want to connect in my psy server need to use 192.168.1.1 ? or the other one?
[11:49] <lisapc> does anyone know how to get right clicking on a mispelled word and gives suggestions to work in OpenOffice pls?
[11:49] <ikonia> n-iCe-: 192. is none public
[11:49] <linuxnewbie756> Flannel, i used this, for edgy, why wouldn't it work? i did it for dapper. http://www.winehq.com/site/download-deb
[11:49] <LJL> n-iCe-: look, 192.168.1.64 is the internal IP of your machine, 192.168.1.1 is (most likely) the internal IP of your router, and 189.134.118.88 is the external IP of your router (and yours)
[11:49] <s0nix> hi, anyone can help me..... i can only play video in small resolution........ if i put it fullscreen....... the image is..... jerky?
[11:49] <ikonia> is this a networking 101 class?
[11:49] <Crescendo> Don't certain Linux filesystems chronicle each action?  I think its called journaling?
[11:49] <n-iCe-> LJL,  then whay i should give to connect
[11:50] <ikonia> crescendo yup they do
[11:50] <LJL> n-iCe-: give... whom?
[11:50] <Crescendo> Cam
[11:50] <barbarella> n-iCe-:can you ping 192.168.1.1?
[11:50] <Crescendo> Can't that help me somehow?
[11:50] <variant> Crescendo: on the offchance that the data is still stored in the jourjnal
[11:50] <variant> Crescendo: no
[11:50] <ikonia> crescendo not really
[11:50] <n-iCe-> dns = Host 1.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa not found: 2(SERVFAIL)
[11:50] <mzuverink> Ive looked high and low, through google and what not and still have yet to get my modem working.  I need it to fax for work.  Its a HP DV 1000, with a intel 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH 6) AC'97 (rev 3).  Anyone have an idea of how to fix this?
[11:50] <brokenbin> wow, it worked
[11:50] <ikonia> n-iCe-: you have no reverse dns
[11:50] <brokenbin> thanks a lot guys
[11:51] <coiotebipbip> hhahahahhaha ok thanks guys
[11:51] <Flannel> linuxnewbie756: You're not using edgy's wine in the wine repos either.  Since that one correctly depends on the edgy versions.
[11:51] <linuxnewbie756> LJL, does this work? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11257/
[11:51] <n-iCe-> ikonia,  i can't: From 192.168.1.64 icmp_seq=4 Destination Host Unreachable
[11:51] <n-iCe-> i should use then 192.168.1.64 ?
[11:51] <ikonia> n-iCe-: 192 is none purblic
[11:51] <ikonia> pbulic
[11:51] <ikonia> public
[11:51] <n-iCe-> then ?
[11:52] <Jowi> s0nix, that sort of "depends". 1st make sure you are using the correct drivers for your video card. 2nd, depending on which media player you use, see what video output sink you use. Xv is usually fastest (again, depends on video card/driver)
[11:52] <linuxnewbie756> Flannel, so what do i do? remove it from my sources list and install a slightly older version?
[11:52] <n-iCe-> which one i should use to get online
[11:52] <Flannel> linuxnewbie756: pastebin your sources.list
[11:52] <Pici> n-iCe-: 192.x.x.x addresses can only be seen within a local network.
[11:52] <ikonia> n-iCe-: your router/isp will deal with that for you via dhcp
[11:52] <linuxnewbie756> Flannel, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11257/
[11:52] <n-iCe-> ok then how can they conect to my psy?
[11:53] <Jowi> s0nix, also, if this is a DVD disc, check if you have DMA enabled on the DVD-ROM Player.
[11:53] <gravemind> whoa, what's the difference between "lame," "mp3encode," and "xingmp3eng???"
[11:53] <Flannel> linuxnewbie756: that can't be your whole sources.list, there's no wine in there.
[11:53] <ikonia> n-iCe-: you plug your computer into the router
[11:53] <n-iCe-> ah ?
[11:53] <brokenbin> when i am using azureus, it sais NAT Error
[11:53] <brokenbin> what does that mean?
[11:53] <linuxnewbie756> Flannel, it is.
[11:53] <ikonia> brokenbin: it meants your ip address is not getting natt'ed
[11:53] <n-iCe-> what does that mean ikonia  ?
[11:53] <brokenbin> so how can i fix it?
[11:54] <ikonia> n-iCe-: it means you take a network or usb cable and plug it into your isp's router
[11:54] <s0nix> Jowi: is there a way to check which driver my card use AT THE MOMENT.
[11:54] <linuxnewbie756> Flannel, etc/apt/sources.list, right?
[11:54] <ikonia> brokenbin: whats natting your IP - your router or a linux box
[11:54] <brokenbin> azureus works fine under windows and when i was was using fedora...
[11:54] <Slart> mzuverink: laptop modems (and most other laptop stuff) is tricky... my only recommendations would be to google for the model/id nbr of the modem +linux or +ubuntu.. try laptop model + linux too.. other than that.. well... you could always write a mail to hp and ask.. or keep asking in irc-channels such as this one
[11:54] <n-iCe-> ikonia,  is wireless can't work ?
[11:54] <s0nix> i just set my dual screen and i got this problem
[11:54] <LJL> Flannel, he might have those evil files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ ...
[11:54] <ikonia> n-iCe-: yes wirless can work
[11:54] <riaal> How do I add a NFS share? (can't find it under "Places -> Network servers")
[11:54] <Jowi> s0nix, yes. "cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep -i driver"
[11:54] <brokenbin> ikonia: DSL
[11:54] <Flannel> linuxnewbie756: Then you shouldn't be able to install wine via the repositories, at all.  Since the `wine` package doesn't exist.
[11:54] <Crescendo> Is there an MP3 tag tool that I can use to rename MP3s based on their tags, and delete duplicates?
[11:54] <LJL> linuxnewbie756, do you? (type  ls -l /etc/apt/sources.list.d/  )
[11:54] <efface> !audio
[11:54] <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
[11:54] <brokenbin> ikonia: ADSL modem
[11:54] <ikonia> brokenbin: you have a dsl box doing the nat for your ubuntu client ?
[11:55] <n-iCe-> ikonia,  so what ip i should use to connect the ip
[11:55] <Flannel> LJL: What's the deal with that anyway?  When did those sources.list.d things ebcome so popular?
[11:55] <ikonia> brokenbin: what is dsl doing ?
[11:55] <linuxnewbie756> LJL, do i what?
[11:55] <Flannel> LJL, linuxnewbie756, yeah, he does.  That's what the wine command says to do .
[11:55] <brokenbin> ikonia: never herad of that
[11:55] <Slart> Crescendo: there are a couple in the "add remove" menu part in the applications menu
[11:55] <brokenbin> ikonia: so i guess no...
[11:55] <LJL> linuxnewbie756: have files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d
[11:55] <ikonia> brokenbin: ahhh dsl as in "adsl"
[11:55] <riaal> Am I supose to find a NFS share under "Places -> Network"?
[11:55] <linuxnewbie756> LJL, yeah, didn't you get the pastebin?
[11:55] <brokenbin> ikonia: yea
[11:55] <LJL> Flannel: yeah, but even Ubuntu itself - if you do things via Software Sources - uses those files to add repositories
[11:55] <ikonia> brokenbin: sorry missundersood
[11:55] <Slart> Crescendo: I've used EasyTag.. it did what I wanted.. there are probably more
[11:55] <gravemind> what's the difference between "lame," "mp3encode," and "xingmp3eng???"
[11:55] <gravemind> do they all do the same thing
[11:55] <brokenbin> ikonia: it's alright, any way i can fix it?
[11:55] <ikonia> brokenbin: for some reason your router is not dealing with nat from your linux box
[11:56] <Agrajag> yes, but ecept for lame they do a horrible job
[11:56] <Flannel> LJL: what a stupid thing to do.  Makes debugging bloody difficult.
[11:56] <LJL> linuxnewbie756: err, yeah... that pastebin is the contents of the *file* /etc/apt/sources.list  -  now i want to know if you have files in the *directory* /etc/apt/sources.list.d
[11:56] <Crescendo> Slart, easytag doesn't delete duplicates, though
[11:56] <bossa_nova> I am running Feisty on an old computer (1.2 GHz Celeron, 256 MB SDRAM) and I would like to completely remove all the desktop-effects and compiz stuff for performance reasons so that users don't have the option of enabling wobbly windows and crashing the computer. However, "apt-get autoremove compiz" threatens to remove "ubuntu-desktop" -- I'm guessing this would be bad for GNOME.
[11:56] <brokenbin> ikonia: what is nat?
[11:56] <Pici> gravemind: different implementations.  Multiple tools to do the same job.
[11:56] <Flannel> bossa_nova: #ubuntu+1 for feisty support, thanks
[11:56] <Slart> Crescendo: ah.. you're right.. sorry
[11:56] <gravemind> Pici: ok, so what is the difference in them?
[11:56] <ikonia> brokenbin: network address translation 192.168.0.1 into 64.192.24.56 for example
[11:56] <Libano> terni
[11:56] <linuxnewbie756> LJL, yes, i do.
[11:56] <Flannel> bossa_nova: oh, and no.  "ubuntu-desktop" is just a metapackage, you can remove it without issue.
[11:56] <bossa_nova> Flannel: ah, OK, thanks.
[11:56] <LJL> Flannel: they say it's easier for the user (see the WINE example, and other repo sites use that sort of syntax), smarter, more modular... but yeah, i agree.
[11:56] <Dabian> bossa_nova : Don't be afraid.
[11:57] <bossa_nova> AWESOME
[11:57] <Dabian> bossa_nova : Your fear is futile.
[11:57] <brokenbin> ikonia: yea
[11:57] <Flannel> bossa_nova: but, you need to re-add it when upgrading.  You might want to wait until Feisty final is out to do that.
[11:57] <brokenbin> ikonia: it always sais that my ip is blocked
[11:57] <bossa_nova> I did not know it was just a metapackage
[11:57] <ikonia> ahhh ok looks like a firewall issue then
[11:57] <Flannel> LJL: should be like grub, where those piecewise things get compiled to the main one, or something.
[11:57] <LJL> linuxnewbie756: type this:   for f in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/* ; do echo "FILE $f" ; cat $f ; done
[11:57] <ikonia> brokenbin: possible firewall issue
[11:57] <Pici> gravemind: I can't comment as I've never used them.
[11:57] <bossa_nova> Flannel: thanks again
[11:57] <Dabian> bossa_nova : However, I would recommend upgrading the gfx-card instead if at all possible.  Buy an intel-card and support Open Stanards.
[11:57] <LJL> Flannel: we should have symlinks inside textfiles :)
[11:57] <mzuverink> Slart, found a link digging deeper, trying it now, gotta build the darn thing though
[11:57] <linuxnewbie756> LJL, can i just copper that into terminal?
[11:57] <brokenbin> ikonia: can you disable the firewall?
[11:57] <s0nix> Jowi: can i pm u ?
[11:57] <linuxnewbie756> LJL, and what will it do?
[11:57] <ikonia> brokenbin: I don't know anything about your router
[11:58] <brokenbin> ikonia: i just want to try, see if it is the reason
[11:58] <Slart> mzuverink: oh? what application?
[11:58] <LJL> Flannel: (if you get what i mean with that, otherwise, nevermind, it's stupid :)
[11:58] <brokenbin> ikonia: i don't have a router
[11:58] <Jowi> s0nix, sure but I'm going to bed pretty soon
[11:58] <brokenbin> ikonia: just a modem from my isp
[11:58] <LJL> linuxnewbie756: no, that will give you some output - pastebin that
[11:58] <ikonia> brokenbin: ahhhhh I see
[11:58] <gravemind> Pici: cool
[11:58] <ikonia> brokenbin: then I don't know other than your ISP what is blocking
[11:58] <fx> can someone please tell me how I can like "analyze" or "view" whats in these packets on my network?  im looking at tcpdump and am seeing really suspicious things and addresses, and i'd like to get some kind of idea of whats going on and what kind of data is being sent..  some things show hostname.www being contacted, so at the very least i should be able to snoop URL's or something no?
[11:58] <brokenbin> ikonia: can't be...
[11:58] <ikonia> brokenbin: try doing something like "ping www.demon.net" and see if it returns
[11:58] <ikonia> brokenbin: I appriciate that
[11:58] <brokenbin> ikonia: works under windows right now
[11:58] <bossa_nova> Dabian: it's not my computer per se, it is one that I'm donating to a co-op, basically dumpstered -- otherwise I would add more RAM
[11:59] <ikonia> brokenbin: but unless you installed and configured a firewall - ubuntu doesn't come with one
[11:59] <Flannel> fx: wireshark is a GUI thing (formerly ethereal)
[11:59] <ikonia> brokenbin: I said I appriciate that it works under windows
[11:59] <LJL> beg1689: are you downloading alternate? i am, myself, though it's not going *incredibly* fast, i guess some more 15 minutes
[11:59] <Slart> fx: I think there are a couple of programs that analyzes tcpdump output to make more sense out of it..
[11:59] <fx> Flannel: it can view the details of whats going on inside of these packets?
[11:59] <brokenbin> ikonia: ok...
[11:59] <mzuverink> Slart, sl-modem-deamon and its source
[11:59] <linuxnewbie756> LJL, Flannel , http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11258/
[11:59] <Flannel> linuxnewbie756: pastebin your wine sources.list part doohickey.
[11:59] <Slart> fx: can't think of any names right now.. but I've looked at this before
[11:59] <bossa_nova> Dabian: beryl works on my laptop (2 GB RAM) so I don't need to worry personally ...
[11:59] <Flannel> fx: yeah, it uses tcpdump, but it's a bit more friendly
[11:59] <brokenbin> ikonia: i didn't install a firewall
[11:59] <ikonia> brokenbin: ok
[11:59] <Slart> mzuverink: thanks.. I have to check it out
[11:59] <dyrne> brokenbin: sudo iptables -L   will show no doubt that ubuntu is accepting everything
[11:59] <LJL> Flannel, i told him to pastebin all those files - assuming i got the command right :)
[12:00] <fx> excellent, thank you, i will try that now
[12:00] <Askar> pls: Unable to initialize RAPI: An unspecified failure has occurred
[12:00] <Askar> why?
[12:00] <Askar> :(
[12:00] <BeastlyKings> some help?
[12:00] <mzuverink> Slart, there is a bunch of reading so be prepared
[12:00] <brokenbin> dyrne: let me try
[12:00] <linuxnewbie756> Flannel, what?
[12:00] <Flannel> linuxnewbie756: `sudo apt-get update`
[12:00] <linuxnewbie756> Flannel, i did what LJL told me to.
[12:00] <linuxnewbie756> flamesrock, and i have updated.
[12:00] <Slart> mzuverink: hehe.. perhaps I should get a cup of tea first =)
[12:00] <brokenbin> dyrne: yes, accepts everything
[12:00] <LJL> linuxnewbie756 (and Flannel), you're missing the security repo for main and restricted
[12:00] <Flannel> linuxnewbie756: `apt-cache policy wine`
[12:01] <LJL> linuxnewbie756: hold on
